Chapter 967 Caidou's Letter
After coming out of the Black Gold Gym, Xia You, Xiao Yao and Ya Mi stood on the street again, feeling helpless.
Before arriving, no one had thought that they would encounter such a situation.
However, after all, they have challenged gyms so many times, and they know that it is not always smooth, and they always encounter many strange things, so they have long been accustomed to it.
Xiaoyao turned to look at Xia You: "Where are we going next?"
"Let's go to the Pokémon Center to check in first." Xia You thought for a moment, "When I just got here, I saw a museum. Anyway, I have nothing to do now, so I can go take a look later."
Naturally, the two had no objection to his proposal.
They returned to the city center and came to the Pokémon Center. While checking in at the front desk, they suddenly noticed a poster next to them.
On the poster, there is a huge pink glamour conference logo, and in the middle is a girl with red hair, wearing a short skirt, holding a microphone and making cute movements. At the bottom of the poster, a line of large characters is particularly eye-catching: Registration for the Black and Gold Glamour Conference is now open!
When Xiaoyao saw this poster, her eyes widened: "Eh? Is there going to be a grand event here?"
"Of course." Miss Joy nodded. "It will be tomorrow morning. If you are interested, you can sign up now. The deadline is 6 o'clock tonight."
This is information that has never been available before!
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao quickly glanced at the clock on the wall, only to see that the time was just past noon, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s okay…” She quickly found her ID card and handed it to Miss Joy. “I’m also a coordination trainer. Please help me sign up!”
This unexpected incident naturally disrupted the plans of several people and prevented Xiaoyao from going to the museum with them.
Time was running out, and she didn't even have time to go and see the venue. After Miss Joy signed her up, she hurriedly threw her backpack in the room, said hello to Xia You, and took her Pokémon to the nearby open-air battlefield without stopping, and plunged into intensive practice.
There's no other way. After all, unlike Xia You, every time Xia You challenges a gym, she only needs to choose the right Pokémon and then rely on strategy and strength to force her way through. But as a coordinating trainer, Xiaoyao not only needs her own Pokémon to be strong, but also has to spend a lot of time designing special performances for each conference, which is very troublesome.
Therefore, even though Xiaoyao has made a good start in EMI City, she does not dare to be careless or sloppy.
Seeing that Xiaoyao was entangled in this matter, Xia You and Ya Mi had no choice but to leave her behind and go to the museum by themselves.
As for why I didn't accompany Xiaoyao...
It was mainly Xiaoyao herself who wanted to complete her journey as a coordination trainer in Sinnoh through her own efforts. Therefore, Xia You naturally respected and affirmed her plan.
Parting with Xiaoyao temporarily, he and Mei left the Pokémon Center shoulder to shoulder.
The full name of the Heijin City Museum is the Heijin Coal Mine Museum. It is located in the northeast corner of Heijin City. The museum covers a large area. The two saw it from afar as they had just reached the street corner.
Although it is called a museum, it is actually composed of two 5- or 6-story buildings with completely different functions.
The one on the right looks like it is built of gray rocks and looks quite heavy. It is the main body of the museum. It is free to visit and is filled with various coal and fossil exhibits.
The more modern-looking building on the left is a fossil research institute, said to be run by a famous doctor who specializes in the study of resurrecting Pokémon from fossils, and has achieved considerable results.
Unfortunately, although Xia You has some interest in fossil Pokémon such as Ogre and Ice Dragon, he does not have the corresponding fossils in his hands, so naturally there is no need to make a special visit.
So he and Yami went straight into the museum.
As soon as they entered the hall, they saw a huge piece of coal.
Judging from visual estimation, this piece of coal is at least as tall as four adult men, weighs dozens of tons, and looks shiny black. The two came to the introduction board on the right and realized that this was actually the largest single piece of coal known to have been discovered in the Sinnoh region.
No wonder it’s so spectacular!
Yami murmured, "It's really big..."
The two looked at it for a while and were about to go somewhere else. At this time, a young couple came over from the side. They were only 18 or 9 years old, both younger than Xia You. The young man walked up to Xia You and smiled shyly: "Um... can you take a photo for us?"
Xia You naturally would not refuse such a small task. He took the camera handed to him by the young man, took a few steps back, found a suitable angle, and took five or six photos of the couple in a row.
The young man thanked him and took the camera. He did not leave immediately, but glanced at Xia You and Ya Mi, then smiled and said, "Do you want me to take a picture of you too?"
Apparently, he had misunderstood Xia You and Ya Mi as being in a relationship.
Xia You was about to wave his hand to refuse, but saw Ya Mi nodded at this time. Seeing this, he could only put down his hand and turned to the young man and said, "Then thank you for your help."
The two of them imitated the couple just now and turned their backs to the huge piece of coal, while the young man also retreated to the place where Xia You had just taken the photo with his camera.
But just as he was about to press the shutter, he suddenly noticed something. He put down the camera and smiled at Xia You and Ya Mi: "You two are a little far away, you should get closer."
Hearing his words, Xia You and Ya Mi moved closer, but the young man still waved his hand: "Come closer!"
There was no other choice, Xia You could only move a few steps towards Ya Mi again, and this time, the two of them were leaning against each other.
But unexpectedly, the man was still not satisfied: "Your expressions and movements are a bit too stiff, can you relax a little bit?"
After all, he and Yami were just ordinary friends, so naturally they couldn't do anything too intimate. Xia You was about to say something to explain, but suddenly he felt someone was around his arm. He turned around and saw Yami tilting her head and smiling at the camera with a red face.
Well, since Ya Mi doesn’t care, Xia You, as a grown man, naturally won’t say much.
A smile also appeared on his face, and with a click, the man pressed the shutter, preserving the picture of him and Yami forever.
Not only that, the young man's camera was a very high-end Polaroid camera. He just operated it slightly and the photo was printed out.
Walking up to the two of them, the man handed the photo to Xia You: "Please accept it."
Xia You thanked him and took the photo. He looked down and saw that he was tall and handsome in the photo with a faint and calm smile on his face. Ya Mi, with long green hair, tilted her head and half leaned on him, smiling happily.
When he looked up again, the young couple had left. Seeing that Ya Mi seemed to like the photo very much, Xia You handed the photo to her.
"Take it. Make a copy for me if you have time."
Hearing what he said, Yami didn't bother to be polite with him. She took the photo and then carefully put it into her wallet.
This incident was just a small episode.
After leaving the huge piece of coal, the two men visited other places in the museum.
On the walls here hang many portraits and popular science pictures of ancient Pokémon. Through these pictures, one can clearly understand the growth environment of Pokémon during the fossil period. In the exhibition stands everywhere, there are also many bones and fossils of fossil Pokémon on display. They are not only well preserved, but also look vivid.
In addition to these, there are also various mining tools that have been used in the past hundred years since the establishment of Black Gold City, coal samples from other places, and even traces of the ocean that remain here in ancient times.
In short, after visiting the place from beginning to end, both of them gained a lot of knowledge.
This is also the reason why Xia You likes to hang out here. Not only can it relax him, but he can also learn some knowledge beyond fighting, allowing him to understand the world more and more.
Of course, his relationship with Yami also became closer.
After spending some time here, they returned to the Pokémon Center when it got dark.
At this time, Xiaoyao's training had not yet ended. She waited until the two of them arrived at the restaurant and ordered their food before she finally arrived. However, after taking a quick bite, she left the restaurant and rushed to the battlefield again.
Yami couldn't help but feel a little surprised to see her so busy.
"It feels like... Xiaoyao seems to be working very hard."
"Of course." Xia You sighed, "After the failures in Hoenn and Kanto, she didn't say anything, but she was actually under a lot of pressure. So for this trip to Sinnoh, she was determined to win and kept pushing herself."
Xiaoyao's busyness also indirectly affected Xiayou and Yami. As companions, seeing their companions in such a hurry made them lose even the mood to eat.
And just at this moment, Xia You received a message.
At first, when he heard the notification ringtone of his cell phone, he thought it was from the handsome guy. After all, according to the time, the handsome guy was leading the team to find the Galaxy team, so there should be a response.
But when he took out his cell phone, he found that it was sent by Caidou!
Colored beans...
Thinking of the girl who traveled everywhere, was serious, hardworking, determined and not good at speaking, Xia You's heartbeat suddenly quickened for some reason!
When I clicked on the message, I found out that after such a long period of rest, Caidou had already finished dealing with the affairs of the gym and could set off at any time.
However, although the two had made an agreement before, it was obviously too... embarrassing for her to come directly to Sinnoh to meet Xia You.
After all, although she had good intentions, on the surface she and Xia You were just friends. If she was too proactive...
Therefore, in the message, she only told Xia You that she would be practicing in the Galar region during this period of time, and if Xia You met some powerful fighting trainers during her travels, she should notify her immediately and she would fly over as soon as possible.
It's obvious that with Caidou's personality, sending such a long message is really difficult for her.
But no matter what, this method is good. At least every time I meet a powerful fighting trainer in the future, I can see her.
only……
Looking at this message, Xia You couldn't help but feel complicated.
On call, can fly all over the country, why do I feel like I have found that...
……
At eight o'clock in the morning, at the venue of the Black Gold City Grand Battle Conference.
"Well, keep going!"
After saying goodbye to Xiaoyao and giving her encouragement, Xia You and Ya Mi entered the venue, which was also filled with the "black and gold" style, from the entrance of the auditorium.
Just like other places, in addition to the obvious difference in the style of the venue, a large number of contestants gathered here.
Moreover, because it is a heavy industrial city, the workers here are more willing to have some "fun" in their spare time than in other places, so grand conferences like this are always crowded.
