Chapter 539 Cabernet Sauvignon vs Alice
After leaving the Yakuri Forest, Xiaozhi and his group stayed in a rest area in the suburbs for one night.
This is the Tianjian Bridge Service Area, from here you can directly board the most famous cross-sea viaduct in Hezhong, the Tianjian Bridge!
As the longest bridge in the United States, its entrance is a spiral loop.
Passing through here, you can directly reach Feiyun City, the largest city in Unova, which has five ports and four main roads.
The entire bridge is divided into two levels, the upper level is a pedestrian landscape avenue, and the lower level is a freight vehicle passage.
Because the span is too large and the walking time exceeds two hours, a rest service area is set up here at the bridgehead.
When Xiaozhi and the other two went out in the morning, Miss Joy specifically reminded them to stay hydrated and bring enough drinking water and lunch to replenish their energy.
So the three kids simply went to a nearby department store. The eight-story complex had red silk hanging at the door and fireworks ribbons on the ground, which looked very festive.
"Wow~ I didn't expect there would be such a large supermarket in the service area?" Alice exclaimed.
"Friendly Supermarket? It should be the newly opened super department store of Friendly Store. It's a good opportunity to go shopping." Xiaozhi nodded.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, they were shocked by the rich merchandise counters on the first floor.
"Oh my god...skill disks, all kinds of medicines and consumables, and gems...eh? Alice?!" Before Xiaozhi could finish his sigh, Alice rushed up.
“Wow (≧▽≦)… It’s so shiny…”
Xiaozhi and Tiantong looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
"Is it the dragon genes that affect her personality? Alice actually likes jewelry~" Xiaozhi said with a smile.
"No, no, no, I think all girls should like it." Tiantong touched his chin and walked forward: "Alice, what kind do you like? I'll give it to you."
"Red bean paste? Tiantong Saigao!!" Alice cheered and jumped three feet high.
Xiaozhi followed silently: "Please, please pack up the red bean bracelet carved from red agate for me."
"Sir, you have such good taste~" The salesgirl complimented Xiaozhi while putting the bracelet in a gift box for him.
"Let's give this to Serena next time we meet?" Xiaozhi asked Pikachu with a smile.
"Pikachu~" Pikachu nodded in approval.
"Red beans grow in the south, and a few branches sprout in spring. I urge you to pick more, as this is the most nostalgic thing..." Tian Tong chanted softly.
"Xiaozhi, do you miss Serena?" Alice came up with a wicked smile.
Xiaozhi glanced at the ring made of the Dragon Gem on Alice's hand: "Didn't you receive a ring too?"
“This… Tiantong insisted on giving it to me…” Alice blushed rarely and retorted shyly.
"Okay, okay... let's go to the food counter quickly." Tiantong smiled and pulled the two quarreling friends away from the jewelry counter.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Suddenly, a voice called out to Alice.
"Hey, me?" Alice turned her head curiously.
While Xiaozhi and his friend were shopping in the food area, Alice turned and walked into a stall with a door curtain.
"Bonne journée! (Hello!), now it's time for comments. Miss, would you like to see your compatibility with the elves?"
"Eh?" Alice and Yaya both had silly looks on their faces.
A female waitress with purple wavy hair stood in front of Alice and introduced herself proudly: "I am a professional Pokémon sommelier certified by the Sommelier Association. Let me judge for you how compatible you are with the elves, right?"
……
"Wow, it's worthy of an opening special. The ingredients and canned food here are so cheap." Xiaozhi couldn't help but sigh as he pushed the shopping cart.
"Yes, I bought a lot. Now we don't have to worry about supplies." Tiantong smiled and nodded, then looked around: "Where's Alice?"
"I don't know. Is it in the fruit area?" Xiaozhi asked uncertainly.
"Wuwu X﹏X..." As the two were talking, they saw Alice running towards them, holding Yaya and crying.
"You barbarian, just listen to me and replace that useless tooth! I'm a wine waiter, how could I lie to you?!" A woman with a bright red slap mark on her face chased after him angrily.
"Stop!" Xiaozhi stopped the woman behind Alice and stared at her warily: "Who are you? Do you think I will beat you up if you try to scam me?"
"Alice, are you okay?" Tiantong walked forward with concern.
“Tian Tong-san…” Alice raised her head, her nose bubbling with grievance: “That wine waiter said that Ya Ya and I are not suitable…”
"That's right!" Cabernet Sauvignon in front of Xiaozhi put his hands on his hips and stood there with his feet like compasses.
"She said her target is the Dragon Master, but the upper limit of a Pokémon like Fangfang is just an ordinary dragon. We should focus on training the single-headed evil dragon, which is a quasi-god. Wouldn't it be better to get rid of this Pokémon sooner!"
Hearing what Cabernet said, Tiantong frowned immediately. Xiaozhi twitched the corner of his mouth and glared at Cabernet fiercely: "Don't force me to slap you here..."
"Alice, don't worry. You and Yaya's scent match very well. She doesn't understand, so you don't have to worry about it." Tiantong spoke gently after touching the top of Alice's head.
"Really?" Alice raised her head in surprise.
"Of course, I'm an A-level wine steward. There are no more than a handful of Pokémon wine stewards in the Unova region who are more professional than me." Tiantong crossed his arms confidently.
“Ah!! I recognize you!” Cabernet Sauvignon suddenly roared, pointing at Tiantong and trembling: “It’s really a narrow road for enemies, Tiantong!”
"Tiantong? Does this tiger woman have a grudge against you?" Xiaozhi looked at Tiantong.
"I also remember who she is." Tiantong stepped forward with a smile: "She once came to challenge the Sanyao Gym, but she was obsessed with being strong and failed to coordinate with the Pokémon, so she lost to me."
"Ah? She can't even beat the Sanyo Gym, she must be so bad..." Xiaozhi said and quickly covered his mouth.
Tiantong narrowed his eyes and smiled awkwardly: "After all, he is Xiaozhi."
“Tiantong, let me tell you, I have passed the wine waiter qualification exam, and now I am also a wine waiter.
The grudge between you and me must be settled!" Cabernet Sauvignon pointed at Tiantong.
“Tiantong, you don’t have to do anything!” Alice pulled Tiantong over and looked at Cabernet Sauvignon angrily: “Let’s fight. If you lose, apologize to Yaya!”
"You? Tiantong is more like that." Cabernet Franc snorted coldly: "However, in order to correct your mistakes, I will teach you reluctantly, and you!"
Seeing Cabernet Sauvignon pointing the finger at him, Xiaozhi almost laughed out of anger: "There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to the northwest but you rush to come, you will be done for if I don't hit you."
Thinking of Xiaozhi and Alice's lineup, Tiantong looked at Cabernet Sauvignon with sympathy: "Kid, be obedient and change your career. Wine waiter is not suitable for you..."
"Stop talking nonsense and watch me teach your two companions a lesson. Even if you cry, I will not forgive them and will make them replace all the elves!" Cabernet Sauvignon said angrily.
“Ah, yes, yes…” Tiantong shook his head helplessly.
This child is really a ghost who is about to die and cannot be persuaded by good words...
