Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

Natsuno's smile remained unchanged as he watched the reporters below frantically taking notes.

'Adu, what are you afraid of? Tell the others this first, otherwise you'll say the newly crowned champion has been arrested?'

'Although everyone saw him arrested, that's not important; we need to give the people of Kanto some confidence.'

'Once we rescue Crimson in a while, everything will be fine.'

'If we could also capture Sakaki, then everything would be perfect.'

Although A-Du felt helpless at this moment, Natsuno had already spoken, and there was no way to stop him.

And judging from the reporters' reactions, it seems everyone believes it, so there's nothing we can do.

He immediately grabbed the microphone, said a few words hastily, and ended the press conference.

Xia Ye looked at the three birds and said, "Arrange a room with a huge yard for us, otherwise the three birds won't have a good time."

Adu nodded, and Chi Yan, who was following him, immediately began to make arrangements.

Natsuno's roommate has already been promoted to Watari's secretary, and the red-haired, cloaked man said he is very reliable.

First, settle the three birds in. Z2 can't stray too far from the birds, so let's have the living room emptied out, leaving only a sofa.

The three birds each chose a corner to stay in, feeling very safe.

Zhu Lan's face was still flushed, and she remained silent throughout.

Xia Ye didn't say anything. After such a long journey, he felt extremely tired after suddenly stopping.

I glanced at myself, which was a bit dirty, and then I thought of my friends.

Natsuno gently waved the hand in front of Takeran's eyes: "Takeran-chan, let's give our friends a wash!"

Without further ado, they went to the specially provided extra-large bathroom and began their great washing and scrubbing mission.

Everything else is fine, it's just that the shark takes a lot of effort.

Rough skin needs to be washed with a special brush, but fortunately, Longdi is not weak in water, so there is no need for a quicksand bath.

And so, Xia Ye and Zhu Lan worked together, using up three brushes, but at least they managed to give Master Shark a comfortable wash.

Natsuno wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It's been so long since I've cleaned Shark and the others like this. It feels like ages ago."

Thankfully, Pokémon don't need to be washed like this every day; washing them too clean isn't a good thing.

Otherwise, Natsuno felt that sooner or later, brushing Shark's back would ruin his old back.

After the Pokémon finished washing, their whole bodies smelled nice.

The three birds in the corner of the living room looked at the little rainbow sharks and their friends, who were laughing and playing, with a hint of envy in their expressions.

After the cleaning was finished by the other members, it was time for the people to get involved.

After washing Rosamund's hair, Natsuno went to another bathroom to clean it up, and then waited for Rosamund's hair to be dried.

While drying her hair, Zhu Lan started watching Pokémon audio videos, and the first sentence almost made Natsuno spit out her saliva.

"The man had long harbored ill intentions towards Champion Cynthia and recently forced her to submit through unknown means."

"What exactly happened in this human tragedy? Let the reporter explain it to you."

The video clearly shows Natsuno and Takeran holding hands, and also captures the evil face of the evil researcher from a very strange angle.

Natsuno was completely speechless: "Did I just say that? If I didn't remember it, I would have actually believed it."

"Wow, that's amazing! This is the magic of journalism! If I could do it all over again, I'd study journalism!"

Zhu Lan's eyebrows furrowed in anger.

He immediately contacted relevant contacts: "These unscrupulous media outlets only know how to distort the facts; we must take action to rectify them!"

Still feeling unsatisfied, the champion picked up his phone and took a picture in the mirror, capturing the scene of Natsuno blow-drying his hair.

He posted a new update directly on his main Pokémon audio and video account.

Unaware netizens saw that the account they were following had posted a new picture and text, so they clicked to view it.

There are more than a dozen pictures, each one showing Natsuno blow-drying Takeran's hair, but each one is slightly different.

From front to back, these are photos taken from when I was 10 years old until just now.

[Does anyone understand? The first picture showed a little boy blow-drying a little girl's hair, and I thought they were the champion's younger siblings, but then... 55555]

[Putting everything else aside, did Natsuno actually know Champion Cynthia so early on? Judging from the caption, it was when he was 10 years old? Childhood friends?]

[So you were childhood friends? Natsuno, Cynthia, you kept this from me for so long!]

These were all relatively normal comments. Xia Ye was too lazy to read the abnormal comments, and Zhu Lan deleted them one by one.

After drying her hair, Natsuno took the blonde beauty's hand.

"They got into a fight halfway through their date, let's go make up for it!"

Chapter 363 SOS Communication, Discussion

As dusk settled, Xia Ye and Zhu Lan walked hand in hand down the street, watching the crowds come and go.

At this time, many stores launched a variety of advertising campaigns, such as "Celebrating the birth of the champion, all items are xx% off".

Some were celebrating the complete elimination of the Rockets in Guandu; in short, everyone was in high spirits.

The classic example is that some astute sellers are already offering the same hats worn by the champions, along with T-shirts, jackets, shoes, and other merchandise—the range is quite comprehensive.

Anyone who walks through these stores can easily buy all the costumes needed for a Crimson Cosplay.

Sure enough, just a few steps away from where the young couple was walking, they spotted more than a dozen passersby dressed in bright red outfits.

It's like a five-minute champion who gets completely ignored...

And no one noticed that the Four Heavenly Kings were speedrun twice in a short period of time.

So much happened in just one day that netizens don't know which issue to discuss.

The newly crowned champion of Kanto, an evil organization openly provokes the alliance, and the champions join forces to defeat them.

The final decision was unanimously made: Let's go and denounce Natsuno!

[Natsuno, you old scoundrel! Not only did you come back riding the three legendary birds, but you're also dating Champion Cynthia?! What gives you the right?!]

Unfortunately, the netizens' condemnation went unanswered, and the young couple was happily dating.

Inside the private room, the two were quietly enjoying a candlelight dinner.

Of course, with the whole family there, it wasn't quiet at all; all sorts of noises mingled together, and it was impossible to hear them all.

Among Natsuno and Takeran's friends, only Mio is 0.6 meters tall.

The kitten became the only one to eat at the table—the real kind of thing, sitting on the table while the others sat around it.

After eating and drinking their fill, the two chatted about everything under the sun, and before they knew it, the conversation had turned to Cattleya.

"Xiaoya's battle castle in Unova is doing quite well lately, and her control over superpowers is much stronger than before."

Zhu Lan squinted, and Xia Ye shrugged, watching Xiao Miao elegantly lick her own fur.

Can he speak? Cattleya still hasn't released him from the dark room.

"This guy's temper has obviously gotten worse, hasn't it? He's still blocked me after all this time."

"I've never tried this long before. In the past, when I teased her, it would only take three to five days to get better. I really don't understand."

"Does this mean I have to apologize in person again? But I didn't do anything!"

The wicked researcher frantically scratched his head, but even after scratching himself to death, he still couldn't figure it out.

"Speaking of which, I don't really need to help with things here for the time being, and as for the research... that's not urgent."

"Why don't we go to Hezhong to see Xiaoya? You need to slack off sometimes, right?"

Zhu Lan's heart tightened, and she was about to speak to stop him when she noticed that Xia Ye had received a communication request.

When I picked it up, I saw it was a number from the Johto region, completely unfamiliar.

Xia Ye's first reaction: Unknown numbers are either telemarketing or scams, I won't answer!

Then I thought, wait a minute, this isn't Earth, there's no way I could be scammed here.

Then I remembered that I had asked Azure to gather intelligence during the day. Although that guy was unlikely to take it seriously, what if he did?

Thinking of this, Natsuno answered the call: "Hello, who is this?"

Unexpectedly, there was no sound from the other end for a long time; it was eerily quiet.

"Hey?"

After saying "hello" a few more times, Natsuno saw that there was still no response and immediately wanted to hang up.

"The call was connected but there was no sound for so long, what's going on? My number hasn't been leaked, strangers shouldn't know it."

"Could it be some bored person randomly dialing numbers?"

Xia Ye and Zhu Lan looked at each other, then suddenly saw Xiao Huan next to them and their eyes lit up.

This isn't Earth; I could actually go through the internet and beat someone up. I want to see who it is!

"Xiao Huan, go check the other side and see what's going on. Remember to activate the defense immediately! If things look bad, run away!"

Although Xiao Huan was already level 70, Xia Ye still reminded the little guy to be careful.

Xiao Huan accepted the order and left, returning a dozen seconds later.

"The house over there is a mess, and no one is home. This communication was automatically dialed by the program! It's Dr. Fuji!"

"This is a very small village. Fuji's house is quite remote, and its location has been marked on the map."

Natsuno was startled: "Dr. Fuji? So he went to Johto."

"Judging from this, could it be that Giovanni discovered them and kidnapped them? What is Giovanni planning to do now?"

Natsuno couldn't sit still any longer and dragged Takeran along as they headed to the Kanto Alliance headquarters.

By this time, the large hole that Sakaki had broken had been repaired, and with the help of the old craftsmen, the construction speed was very fast.

When I arrived at A-du's office, I didn't see anyone.

After the communication, Awatari told Natsuno to go directly to the conference room.
