Chapter 260: Preparation for Announcement

After leaving Long Fan's office, Xia Yu and Long Yanning walked side by side on the way back to the teachers' dormitory. Compared with the bustle a few months ago, the Dragon Secret Realm is now a little deserted, with only scattered passers-by.

This period of time will continue until the end of the College Cup, when the Dragon Secret Realm will become prosperous again.

The dim street lights on both sides of the road shone on the two of them. The lights were dim, and their shadows formed a pair. At this moment, the two looked like a young couple taking a walk, beautiful and sweet.

The world became so quiet, with only the sound of two people's footsteps remaining.

Smelling the faint fragrance coming from Long Yan Ning's body, Xia Yu's thoughts fell into memories, as if the two of them had never taken such a leisurely walk like they did now.

I remember that during the time in the secret realm, Xia Yu was always busy improving his strength, always seizing every available moment to train his Pokémon. He rarely had such a slow-paced life.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the training ground. Xia Yu still remembered that it was on this training ground that he would train with the forest lizards, Charmander, and Buzz Bats until late every night. At that time, Charmander had a fierce temper and always provoked the Buzz Bats.

Unlike the current Charizard, it is much more mature and stable. Looking back now, time flies by so fast, and that period of hard struggle is really an unforgettable time.

But the efforts will eventually bear fruit, and all the efforts will be worth it.

Xia Yu turned her head to look at Long Yanning beside her. She found that Teacher Long's cheeks were flushed at this moment, and she was particularly charming under the light of the street lamp, like a tempting apple, making people want to take a bite.

I don’t know when it started, but Teacher Long started to become so shy. He gets shy when he talks, and he gets shy when he walks with someone like this.

It is said that women will only blush in front of the person they like, but I don’t know whether it is true or not.

Walking quietly on the road, Xia Yu carefully observed Long Yanning in the faint light from the street lamps. He found that Teacher Long had very fair skin, delicate features, and long flashing eyelashes, like a fairy descending to the earth.

Long Yanning has a slender figure. As the weather has warmed up, she only wears a high-necked sweater on her upper body and a pair of flesh-colored velvet stockings on her lower body, outlining her beautiful figure.

She is tall and has a pair of straight and slender legs. The most eye-catching thing is her slender waist, which can be held in one hand, making her worthy of the nickname "Little Waist Beauty".

To this day, Xia Yu still remembers the amazement that Long Yan Ning left on him when they first met.

Perhaps she had noticed Xia Yu's fiery and unbridled gaze, Long Yan Ning's face turned even redder, and she couldn't help but turned her head and glared at Xia Yu, signaling him not to be too presumptuous.

"Teacher Long, are you busy recently?" Xia Yu pretended not to notice Teacher Long's embarrassed expression and asked.

"It's OK. It's been pretty easy lately."

As the students in the training class went to participate in the college cups of their respective provinces and cities, Long Yanning is indeed very relaxed now. Apart from training Pokémon every day, there is nothing else to do.

"Are you free next Sunday? That's the finals of the West Shu Province. How about coming to watch my game?"

Xia Yu invited Long Yanning. Next Sunday is the final day of Xishu Province, which is very important to Xia Yu. He also hopes that Long Yanning can come to Tiandu City to watch his game.

"Sunday?" Long Yanning thought for a while and said seriously: "If there is no urgent matter, I will come and watch your game."

"That's a deal." Xia Yu replied with a smile: "With your encouragement, Teacher Long, I will definitely win the championship."

"Just do your best." Long Yanning didn't care about the title of champion: "Just relax and show your true strength. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Your opponent Li Shiyu is very strong."

"Teacher Long, how do you know my opponent is Li Shiyu?" Xia Yu looked at Long Yanning with a smile, his eyes full of mischief: "Are you secretly following my game?"

"Go back and rest early."

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Long Yanning turned her head away, ignored Xia Yu, and quickened her pace towards the teachers' dormitory.

…………

Nothing happened that night. Xia Yu came to his grandfather's house the next day and went to the laboratory with his grandfather.

The staff at the laboratory were a little surprised to see Xia Yu and Mr. Lin, who had not been seen for a long time. Since Xia Yu developed his own Z move, he has never come to the laboratory again.

His office and laboratory have also been empty, and this is the first time he has been here in a long time.

And judging from the situation, it seemed like something big had happened. Could it be that Xia Yu had some new experimental results? The staff in the laboratory speculated.

…………

"Grandpa, uncle, I want to find two experimental assistants to help me improve the experiment and write the paper."

In Lin Xueyun's office, Xia Yu and Old Lin sat on the sofa, looking at Lin Xueyun.

Lin Xueyun, who lost his beloved son, looked much more haggard. He used to be pot-bellied, but in just one or two months, he lost dozens of pounds. He looked haggard, with sunken eye sockets and heavy dark circles under his eyes.

Lin Xueyun's eyes fell on Xia Yu, and his expression was a little complicated when he looked at Xia Yu.

Although he did not believe what the mysterious man said, when he saw Xia Yu, he couldn't help but think of his son's tragic death.

Although it was probably not Xia Yu who did it, he still couldn't help but doubt it.

Therefore, Lin Xueyun has been observing Xia Yu since Xia Yu entered the door.He found that Xia Yu was extremely calm and didn't have any special reaction. If Xia Yu was really the murderer, he would never be able to ask himself for help so calmly.

Unless Xia Yu is a perverted criminal with extremely high psychological quality, but how is this possible? Xia Yu is just an eighteen-year-old student and it is impossible for him to have such a strong psychological quality.

Moreover, Wu Qianshan committed suicide out of fear of punishment, so Xia Yu should not be the murderer.

"Okay, do you have a new experimental project?" Lin Xueyun put on a smile and looked at Xia Yu, "Actually, there's no need to be so troublesome. With your current reputation, you just need to post an announcement to recruit experimental assistants, and there will definitely be people rushing to come."

"There is a new experimental project." Xia Yu replied: "My experiment has almost been completed, but I need someone to help me write the paper, and the time is relatively tight."

"Oh? What's the new experimental project? How about I write the paper for you? I can be the second author." Lin Xueyun said with a smile: "Last time, it was because of you that I got the title of second author. Otherwise, I would not have been elected as an academician last year."

Last time, he was indeed helped by Xia Yu. Lin Xueyun had been doing experiments all his life, so his qualifications and background were sufficient, but he lacked some achievements. If he hadn't taken advantage of Xia Yu, he would have to wait at least a few years or even ten years before he could succeed.

"Sure." Xia Yu replied.

"Xueyun, please don't worry about this for now." Elder Lin suddenly spoke up, interrupting Lin Xueyun's words: "Xiaoyu, I recommend two people for you as lab assistants. You can let them be the second and third authors of the paper. Xueyun, don't get involved in the new experiment."
