Chapter 928 Xiaoguang

"Ahem, well... after all, Team Galactic is such a large organization that it would be a bit difficult for us international police to deal with it. We also need some high-end combat support, so before you came to Sinnoh, the headquarters also contacted a few people."

At this point, the handsome guy glanced at Xia You's face calmly, and seeing that he was indeed just curious, and not expressing any other emotions such as "dissatisfaction", he was relieved and continued: "However, because we don't know whether Team Galactic has infiltrated or to what extent, we did not inform the Pokémon League and those gym leaders. We only contacted two trustworthy Tenno and a more powerful trainer."

It is hard to guess which two kings are completely trustworthy.

But if we talk about a trainer who is more powerful than the King, there should be only one person in the whole Sinnoh...

At this point, the handsome guy added, "Actually, Lila and I didn't know about this beforehand. It was all caused by the people at the headquarters. After all, in our eyes, no matter how powerful someone is, they can't be as powerful as you!"

The handsome guy was undoubtedly flattering Xia You, and the meaning of his words was too obvious!

It was just to ask Xia You not to mind it, and to clear him and Lila from the matter.

In fact, this is not surprising. After all, after having invited other people to help, continuing to invite more people can be said to be a lack of trust in the previously invited people. Unless he is a thick-skinned guy, anyone would inevitably have some other thoughts.

Even though Xia You was the last person invited, he was an outsider, and it was hard not to make these local superstars feel ignored, thus increasing the conflicts between the two sides.

The Four Heavenly Kings would definitely think: What? Are they dissatisfied with the trainers in Sinnoh, so they called in people from other regions to help? Are the powerful dragons suppressing the local snakes?

Even Xia You would think: Why did they call me when they already called such a powerful person? Was it to add unnecessary details? Or was it to add icing on the cake?

It can be said that such misunderstandings are easy to arise when the two parties do not know each other and lack sufficient understanding.

Only those people at the International Police Headquarters would act without regard for the impact and consequences and only care about their own vested interests.

Fortunately, Xia You is not the kind of person who cares about things. Moreover, he has been a supporting actor in Kanto and Johto before, and has worked with the kings and gym masters there. Therefore, he naturally doesn't mind hearing what the handsome guy said.

"You praise me too much." Xia You shook his head. "How can my achievements be compared with the Four Heavenly Kings? I think I should focus on cooperating with them this time!"

"Brother Xia You, you are wrong." The handsome guy's face straightened after hearing this, "The headquarters is the headquarters. No matter what they say, in Lila's and my heart, you are the most powerful trainer, and the friend we are most willing to cooperate with!"

"Hey, hey, hey..." Xia You waved her hands quickly, "If other people hear what you said, it will cause a big misunderstanding!"

The handsome guy shrugged indifferently: "I'm just telling the truth."

The two no longer talked about this topic, and instead the handsome guy told Xia You about the deployment and plans of the international police in Sinnoh, which was considered as informing Xia You in advance. However, this was only a preliminary plan, and specific actions would not be carried out until there was solid and sufficient intelligence.

In short, this meeting was just a reunion between the two and the briefing of some situations, and there was nothing substantive to be done.

But it also laid a foundation for subsequent cooperation.

Seeing that it was getting late and they had already drunk several cups of coffee, the handsome guy suggested leaving.

But before he left, Xia You couldn't help but ask a question.

"Come to think of it, we've known each other for such a long time, but I still don't know your real name. I can't keep calling you by a code name, right?"

The handsome guy smiled slightly: "Actually, whether it's a name or a code name, it's just a name. And I've been called by a code name so many times that I've long been accustomed to it. So now when someone calls me by my name, I'm a little uncomfortable. But since you want to know, it's okay to tell you."

As he spoke, he leaned over and whispered a name into Xia You's ear.

There was a hint of surprise in Xia You's eyes. At this moment, the handsome guy stood up, smiled at him, turned around and left the coffee shop.

Looking at his back, Xia You shook his head with amusement.

"What? You have such an ordinary name..."

Just as he was sighing, he saw the waiter coming over. Xia You came back to his senses, looked at the two cups of coffee on the table, and suddenly came to his senses.

Didn’t this handsome guy say he wanted to buy me coffee?

Why did you leave without paying?!

……

Returning to the Pokémon Center alone, Xia You first went to the bar to retrieve the Frog and Riolu that he had left for treatment, and then went to the restaurant to meet Xiaoyao.

But he didn't expect that in addition to Xiaoyao, he saw three other people sitting next to Xiaoyao and chatting with her.

There is no need to say much about these three people, they are naturally Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, and Xiaoguang who they had just met a few days ago!

I didn't expect them to get together so quickly and rush to Zhuqing City. Their pace is quite fast!

The four people didn't notice my appearance at this time and were still chatting there.

When Xia You approached, he just happened to hear Xiao Yao laughing: "...At that time, Brother Xia You also told me about the bicycle. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect it to be broken by Pikachu!"

Her words silenced Xiaozhi and Pikachu. Both the man and the Pokémon had awkward expressions on their faces, and no one dared to look Xiaoyao and Xiaoguang in the eye.

It was in this awkward moment that Xiaozhi noticed Xia You's arrival and quickly waved to him.

"Brother Xia You! Here! Here!!"

Hearing his words, Xiaoyao, Xiaogang and Xiaoguang all looked over.

Walking up to them, Xia You sat down in the empty seat, smiled and nodded at them, "When did you arrive?"

Xiaozhi also grinned: "I just arrived not long ago, and I'm waiting for you to have lunch together!"

At this point, he became excited and drooled: "Brother Xia You! I haven't told you how I defeated Shen Dai, right? Listen to me! I am..."

Seeing that Xiaozhi was about to start a long speech again and wanted to tell Xia You about the "exciting battle" that he had just told him about, Xiaoyao stopped him immediately!

"Stop, stop, stop! I'll have time to listen to your story later, so don't talk about it now. Brother Xia You, look, the girl next to you is Xiao Guang, the girl we met a few days ago. You really came right! Her bicycle was broken by Pikachu! And what's even more coincidental is that she has started traveling with Xiaozhi now!"

Xia You looked at Xiaoguang, and Xiaoguang looked over at him at this moment.

At this time, Xiaoguang was still wearing the same outfit as I saw her a few days ago, but from a close distance, she looked more beautiful and confident. Indeed, just like her name, she gave people a feeling of radiance from the inside out.

Moreover, sitting together with Xiaoyao, although they have different styles, both of them are very beautiful, and just looking at them is very pleasing to the eyes. After a while, Xia You noticed that there were already many trainers, and they would secretly glance here from time to time.

"Hello, I'm Xia You, we meet again."

"I'm Xiaoguang." Xiaoguang looked at Xia You curiously with a pair of bright eyes, and said with a smile, "Yes, we have met before. I didn't expect that you are also Xiaozhi's friends. It's such a coincidence! I have heard about you from Xiaozhi, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful!"

It is quite difficult to hear Xiaozhi praise someone.

As we all know, although Xiaozhi usually looks silly and does things clumsily, deep down he is very unwilling to admit defeat. If it is not someone he truly admires, how could he ever hear praise from him!

Although Xiaoguang has only been in contact with Xiaozhi for a short time and does not understand these things yet, since the two of them became friends, the person she heard Xiaozhi talk about the most is Xia You. It can be said that she has heard so much about him that her ears are almost callused!

He always aims to surpass Xia You, but he also regards Xia You as the person he trusts the most.

It can be felt that Xiaozhi has very complicated emotions towards this man.

This also allowed Xiaoguang to understand a lot about Xia You even though they had not yet formally met. The most common thing was how powerful Pokémon Xia You possessed and the achievements he had obtained that were simply unattainable for ordinary people.

At first, she didn't know who Xia You was, but when she arrived at the Pokémon Center and met Xiaoyao, she realized that they were the man and woman she met in the wild two days ago!

Looking at it this way, I seem to have a connection with these two people!

"Really?" Xia You looked at Xiao Zhi in surprise, "He actually told you about me? He must be saying that he will definitely defeat me in the future, right?"

This time, before Xiaoguang could speak, Xia You's eyes had already landed on a Pokémon that was peeking out from beside her, and she immediately asked knowingly, "Is this your Pokémon? Are you a trainer too?"

Hearing him mention this, Xiaoyao was obviously excited: "No, Brother Xia You! Xiaoguang is a coordination trainer like me! And he has also signed up for tomorrow's celebration meeting!"

"Not only them!" Xiaozhi also puffed out his chest, "Even I signed up!"

"You're going to join in the fun, too?" Seeing Xiaozhi's confident look, Xia You shook her head with amusement, "From the looks of it, tomorrow's game will definitely be very lively."

……

The venue for the celebration competition is in an open-air park not far from the Pokémon Center.

The overall shape of the stadium is somewhat like a flying saucer from Star Wars, or a Poké Ball that has been cut open and peeled off. It has a white and pink color scheme, and is decorated with a large and gorgeous conference icon, which looks very modern.

Before the competition, in order to appear more serious, Xiaoguang changed into a pink dress, which made her look even cuter. This outfit undoubtedly made her look more professional than Xiaoyao and Xiaozhi who participated in the competition in casual clothes.

However, when changing clothes, Xiaoguang was careless and accidentally lost the accessories of the dress. Fortunately, a girl with a charming cat picked up the accessories and returned them to Xiaoguang, otherwise it would have been a bit of a pity.

But no matter what, the first grand event for the pure newcomer Xiao Guang has finally begun.

After entering the venue, Xia You and Xiao Gang found their seats and sat down.

Because three of their companions will be participating in today's game, there are only two of them left in the group of relatives and friends watching the game.

At this time, Xia You missed Xiaosheng very much. After all, only with him could she control Xiaogang's eyes that were always looking at the beautiful big sister.

Besides, he and Xiaogang really had nothing to talk about. They had been sitting down for nearly five or six minutes without saying a word.

There's nothing we can do about it, that's just their personality.

Fortunately, as time passed, at exactly nine o'clock, as the lights in the hall dimmed, a female host in a yellow robe and orange curly hair came on stage under the spotlight, ending the awkward atmosphere.

This female host looked 80% similar to Vivian and Lillian from Kanto and Hoenn. She appeared on the stage holding a microphone.

"The Pokémon are shining brightly, dancing with the ribbons as their goal. Dear audience, thank you for your long wait! The Pokémon Celebration Conference is about to begin!" The female host said loudly, "I am Bai'an, the host of this conference. As you can see, this conference will be held in this city where happiness gathers. So, who will win this conference and take away the ribbon medal? Let us wait and see!!"

After thunderous applause, Bai'an introduced the judges of this conference.

And as expected, it was still those three familiar faces.

They are Kang Kensten, the director of affairs of the Grand Contest, Sumusa, the president of the Pokémon Fans Club, and Miss Joy from the Pokémon Center in Zhuqing City.

I can only say that Konkenstein and Sumukusa are really strong.

No matter where a grand conference is held, they will be there. It can be said that they are there all year round and will attend every event. They are really dedicated. In terms of the wide range of their activities, no one can match these two people. It is hard not to admire them.

After a brief introduction, the conference officially began.

The first thing held was the performance round of a single Pokémon, which was no different from the grand tournaments in other regions, and it also allowed trainers like Xiaoyao who came to Sinnoh to directly compete in the competition without any discomfort.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, as the stage curtain opened, a girl dressed in a neutral style with short orange hair, who looked like a tomboy, walked onto the stage first and began her performance.
