Chapter 169 Jinghe's House Cleaning Operation

"Finally home!"

Pushing open the door and looking at everything familiar before her, Jinghe took a deep breath.

"cough cough"

It had only been a few days since I left home, and it was already covered in a layer of dust.

"A moan?"

The dwarf dragon cautiously approached, looking at the small but cozy home before it with a somewhat timid air.

Gengar patted Dratini like an older brother and grinned broadly.

"哓GA!"

Don't worry, I've got you covered!

"Alright, let's not say anything more, let's start cleaning."

Jinghe issued a "task".

It's been almost a week since I left, and a lot has happened.

He helped Lance restore his red Gyarados, challenged the gyms in Smoky City, Goldenrod City, and even Viridian City, and met Sabrina, Giovanni, Bill, Professor Oak, and Blue.

of course.

the most important is.

They caught Dratini and evolved Gastly into Gengar!

I did get quite a few good things during that time.

Examples include giant dragon scales, metal membranes, dragon fangs, and move learning machines.

original.

Professor Oak wanted Jinghe to stay for two more days.

We can have a good exchange of research experiences.

But Jinghe & Gengar rejected it.

He has class tomorrow.

Gengar was frightened by Professor Oak's "unexplained" friendliness.

I have a feeling that Professor Oak is lusting after its body.

It's definitely not because Jinghe is worried that Professor Oak will ask him if he wants to choose one of the starter Pokémon.
As a seasoned Pokémon enthusiast, it's really hard to resist the allure of Garlic Slug, Water Slug, and Aquapig.

Given his current financial resources
It's already good enough if we just try our best to keep him and Gengar from starving to death.

It's definitely not because I'm worried that Professor Oak might suddenly have the idea to give him a special Pokédex or assign him some tasks.

Who will be the people who possess special Pokédex entries in the future?

The main characters are Crimson, Green, Ah Jin, and Little Silver.

What will they encounter?
Frozen, burned, and harassed by various criminal gangs.
Actually, these are all not too bad.

Having a special Pokédex makes you vulnerable to being targeted by legendary Pokémon, which is a real problem.

Having provoked a Mewtwo, Jinghe felt that was enough.

The only regret is that I didn't have time to meet Red or Ash, or even both of them.

However, given their abilities, Jinghe felt that they would meet sooner or later.

It's better to meet later.
"You're safe once you get home."

After letting Gengar and Vulpix help Dratini familiarize themselves with the environment, Jinghe went into the bathroom and came out carrying a bucket, mop, and rag.

"Gengar, you're in charge of the ceiling, the walls, and some of the nooks and crannies."

"Liuwei, you're in charge of the bed, desk, cabinets, and other surfaces."

"Master blacksmith, the ground is now in your hands!"

Upon hearing this, the three little ones readily accepted the order!

After all, this isn't the first or second time we've done a deep clean, and they're used to it by now.

"A moan?"

The mini dragon blinked and looked expectantly at Jing He, seemingly waiting for him to assign it a task.

Jing He pondered for a moment.

"Then the bathroom is yours, Mini Dragon. Clean the bathroom with water."

After all, Dratini is currently the only Pokémon in Jinghe's collection that can use water.

However, he still gave him some instructions:

"Please, please, don't use water cannons."

"Singing!"

Assigned the "task," the Dratini happily responded after receiving the rag.

As for Jinghe himself, he was in charge of the most important part: the kitchen!
The kitchen is a sensitive area; I only feel at ease when he comes by himself.

Ever since.

The "Jinghe's House Big Cleaning Operation Plan" has begun in full swing.

Gengar took a rag and crawled into the ceiling.

I gently breathed on the light above.

Then wipe it with a cloth until it makes a "squeaking" sound, only then will you show a satisfied expression.

"Gengar, remember to use water, not your saliva. You've already broken five lampshades," Jinghe's voice came from the kitchen.

"哓GA!"

know!

Gengar shouted menacingly toward the kitchen.

This time it didn't use saliva, it just... just breathed on it.
Gengar stared blankly as it watched the lampshade thinning at a visible speed.

"Gen, genga."

I hope everything is alright.
"Six Tails, don't dive right under the covers. We'll be without a blanket again tonight," Jing He's voice came again.

"Ooh, oh?"

Upon hearing this, the Ice Vulpix poked its head out from under the covers.

Feeling the "comfortable" temperature enveloping it, it stuck out its little tongue.

He grabbed the blanket and took a deep breath.

"Ooh!"

But Jinghe's scent in the quilt really smells nice!
"Skilled blacksmith, remember that what you're holding is a mop, not your hammer. Don't use too much force."

Still feeling uneasy, Jinghe came out of the kitchen.

just see.

With a serious expression, the skilled blacksmith gripped the mop that had broken in two, pondering how to repair it.

He couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Take a deep breath. "My, my pot."

"I forgot that you all improved a lot after your trip; I should have reminded you sooner."

"Genga~~"

"Ooh~~"

"Chirp~~"

The three little ones smiled at the same time and spoke in unison.

We don't blame you anymore.

Jing He: "."

got used to.

He's really gotten used to it.

This is what daily life at Jinghe's house is like.

"By the way, where's the Dratini?"

Suddenly, Jinghe remembered that the mini dragon hadn't made any noise after entering the bathroom.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

What if, when we open the toilet door, we find a scene of utter flooding?

I walked carefully to the bathroom.

Having mentally prepared himself, he opened the bathroom door.

Fortunately.

There was no water gushing out; the Dratini obediently listened to his instructions and did not use "Water Cannon".

but.
It's not much better.

Jinghe's eyes twitched as she watched the scene unfold before her.

See you soon.

The bathroom was filled with bubbles, soap bubbles.

Then came the familiar sound of someone tripping and falling.

Then the dwarf dragon poked its head out of the bubble.

"Singing~~"

The miniature dragon, its head covered in foam, wore a憨厚 (honest and simple) smile.

"Haha." Jing He gave a bleak laugh.

"Finally finished cleaning."

Jinghe sat down on the sofa and calmly drank a sip of hot tea.

Fortunately.

Although there were some minor issues, the overall process went relatively smoothly.

At least there were no situations like the first time we did a thorough cleaning, such as a power outage, freezing temperatures, and broken floor tiles.

It's much better now.

After Gengar and the others took notice, the final result was still good.

They got a clean and complete home.

The key is completeness.

But Jinghe also considered a problem.

This house seems a bit small.

Although it's cute and adorable when it's small, well, it's also very heartwarming when it's small, you can clearly feel some inconvenience in its movements after Gengar evolves.

The main reason is that Gengar is a chubby little guy with a large horizontal area.

If that's all there is to it, then it's barely acceptable.

But if Vulpix and Dratini evolve later, it will definitely look a bit crowded.

"I feel like it's time to move to a different place."

to be frank.

Although he would feel reluctant, for the sake of the little ones' development, this matter had to be put on the agenda.

In Jinghe's opinion...

The best option is to rent a house with a shop.

Whether you open a Pokémon psychology clinic or a coffee shop, it's a good option and you can earn some extra money.

Just as Jinghe was considering whether or not to move.

After finishing their spring cleaning, the little ones went about their own business.

With a fragment of the "Dark Stone" given to it by Giovanni in its mouth, Gengar slowly floated into the air as it kept pawing at it with its tongue.

In front of it, wisps of white smoke drifted from a small pink incense burner.

Gengar is really something else, eating "Dark Stones" while training its psychic powers.

The skilled blacksmith finally obtained the "metal film" he had been longing for.

On the balcony, the hammer made another series of clanging sounds.

foreseeable.

With this "metallic membrane," the weight of its hammer is estimated to increase even further.

However, in Jinghe's view, as long as Gengar doesn't trade abilities with Crafty Blacksmith, everything is acceptable.

Ice Vulpix curled up on the bed, intently watching the TM, learning to "share the pain".

It nods occasionally with a "woo-woo" sound.

This move is definitely not easy to learn, but Jinghe thinks Ice Vulpix shouldn't be a problem. The only thing to consider is...
After learning the technique of "sharing pain", how should I practice it?

More accurately, it's about choosing someone as the subject of practice.

Aside from these three little guys that have caused Jinghe so much worry, the Dratini is currently the only one that can give Jinghe a sigh of relief.

Its biggest problem right now is how to digest the giant Dragonite's scales.

Although the ice six-tailed beast froze the scales, and with the skillful blacksmith's hammering, the huge scales were broken into pieces of varying sizes.

But smashing it doesn't mean that the Dratini can eat it easily. Compared to its hard scales, its teeth are still a bit fragile.

If there's really no other way, we can only slowly grind it down.

Jinghe cannot offer much help in this regard at the moment.

drip-

His phone suddenly rang, interrupting his thoughts.

The message was sent by the director of the college's academic affairs office.

Ask him if he has returned.

The dean has returned and brought the rewards for the mentor assessment; hopefully he can come to the school tomorrow.
