Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off.

This is the advantage of having two champions in a region: they can shoulder responsibilities together when things go wrong, and they can take a break from each other during normal times.

For some reason, Natsuno thought of Crimson and Green: if both of them became champion trainers, things would be much more stable in Kanto.

Of course, only Hoenn implements this system; other regions haven't followed suit, so these are things outsiders can't understand.

Daigo quickly hung up the call, while Natsuno remained gazing at the sky, when Xiaoya gave him a hard pat on the shoulder.

"Hey Natsuno! The little girl has already flown away, and you're still staring intently in the direction she left. There's something wrong with you!"

"I'm going to report you to Xiao Zhulan right now, you heartless womanizer!"

Xia Ye was jolted awake by the slap, and when he heard Xiao Ya's absurd words and saw the way she was looking at him like he was a scumbag, he was speechless.

He then lightly tapped Cattleya's shoulder, who looked indignant, like a schoolchild about to tattle.

"Please, use your imagination to develop tactics. Maybe you'll already be a world champion."

"Little Yellow people prefer bright red, so stop talking nonsense. What do you take me for? I'm really fed up."

Natsuno prides himself on being a moral exemplar, and apart from occasionally using telepathic attacks to distract his opponents during battles, he is impeccable in every other aspect.

He was speechless, looking up at the sky, never expecting Xiaoya to see him this way.

Xiaoya persisted, "Hmph, don't change the subject. Tell me honestly how you met the girl and how you tricked her!"

Natsuno rolled her eyes: "You're just making things up, aren't you? Even Takeran-chan isn't as neurotic as you. I can't be bothered with you."

Xia Ye wanted to leave, but Xiao Ya wouldn't let him go, spreading her hands to block him: "Explain yourself clearly, or you're not allowed to leave!"

Xiaoya's expression was serious at this moment, and there was even a hint of stubbornness in her eyes. Xia Ye, who knew Xiaoya's personality well, was taken aback.

His initial impatience vanished inexplicably. He gently pressed her arm and gave her a brief explanation.

"That's right. To me, Xiao Huang is just a little sister. I have no interest in her. I'll help her if she asks for a favor, but I don't care about anything else."

Natsuno, who didn't know why she had inexplicably given so many explanations, was also somewhat confused.

Seeing the stubbornness in Xiaoya's expression fade, Xia Ye scratched his head: "Why are you so concerned about these things? Zhu Lan-chan already knows."

Xiaoya, whose eyes were being stared at by Xia Ye, looked away in a flustered manner, her expression remaining casual.

"Tch, who cares? I'm just worried that you'll run wild without Xiao Zhulan around. I'm keeping an eye on you!"

"If you dare to do anything to betray Xiao Zhulan, I'll be the first to make you pay!"

As she spoke, Xiaoya suddenly clenched her fist, her tone full of threat.

Natsuno shrugged: "Please correct the image you have of me. I am a moral exemplar, thank you."

Turning back to the rest area, I checked on my companions. It was almost noon when Xiao Cai and the others finally woke up.

Xia Ye stood at the head of the bed, hands on his hips, saying nothing, and the atmosphere instantly became several degrees more tense.

Xiao Cai realized in a few seconds that she had been exposed. The colorful puppy then showed a fawning expression and moved towards Xia Ye in a cute way.

"Turu turu turu (Xiao Cai knows she was wrong, please forgive me)~"

The others followed suit, all coming over to hug and fawn over Xia Ye, creating a symphony of sounds.

Natsuno finally couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing.

Seeing that they all looked a little haggard, Xia Ye felt a pang of sympathy and touched each of them.

"Alright, alright, I fully support training, but it can't take up your sleep time at night. From now on, I'll train with you during the day."

"I've already put things aside as much as possible, and now I'll train with everyone to improve my skills."

The group finally breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, Natsuno received another video call, this time from Takeran.

"Congratulations, Professor Ono! I should audit some courses at Nihon University when I have time."

Natsuno was taken aback for a moment before realizing what it meant. She gently raised her head, revealing her perfect jawline.

"It's alright, I welcome you to come to my class anytime, but you'll have to pay to get into the classroom."

Zhu Lan looked blankly at me: "Eh? I have to charge too? Tell me, how much?"

Natsuno smiled and waved for his friends to go wash up and prepare lunch before turning back.

“Miss Champion, I don’t take money. I only look at this and then I’ll take this.”

After saying that, Xia Ye first pointed to his heart area, then moved his finger up and pointed to his lips.

The blonde beauty instantly understood, her face beaming with smiles: "Okay, whether it's this or this, I can pay for either."

"See you in class then, Professor. I'll take good notes."

At this moment, Zhu Lan on the screen suddenly glanced behind Xia Ye, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

"By the way, what about Xiaoya? What do we need to pay if Xiaoya wants to sit in on the class?"

Hearing Zhu Lan say this, Xia Ye immediately laughed: "She probably won't understand, right? My suggestion is to start with middle school."

The next second he felt a murderous aura behind him. He turned around and saw Xiaoya, who was covered in sweat, glaring at him.

"Don't underestimate me, okay! No matter what, I'm an outstanding graduate with a bachelor's degree in finance!"

"Very well, you've angered that bird-like woman! I wasn't going in the first place, but now I'm definitely going!"

"I'll find any mistake or error in your lecture and expose you on the spot. You better watch out!"

Enraged, Xiaoya threw out some harsh words and left Xia Ye's room.

Xia Ye scratched his head, while Zhu Lan on the other side of the screen was covering her mouth and chuckling.

Natsuno was helpless. The blonde beauty then became serious and posed a probing question.

"By the way, Professor Ono, why did you agree to teach seven courses a week? If each course has two sessions, that's 14 classes a week!"

"What? What do you mean I have to take seven classes a week? Doctor, are you kidding me?!"

Chapter 507 Just kidding, two courses will do.

A bewildered Natsuno scratched his head frantically, while the blonde beauty tilted her head: "Eh? Wasn't that what Ono meant?"

At this moment, Natsuno picked up a tablet from beside the bed and opened the Pokémon audio video.

At this time, "Hongda University announces Xia Ye as a professor of genetics!" has become the hottest topic on the entire Internet, and netizens are frantically flooding the relevant video content and tagging Xia Ye's account.

Xia Ye stared at the "Genetic Engineering Major Undetermined Course Schedule" in the video, his name appearing on several courses listed, and his vision went black.

"Zhulan-chan, I'm going to confront Dr. Anthony right now. I've been tricked by that old man!"

Xia Ye quickly hung up the call and dialed Anthony's number instead.

The call connected instantly, and Natsuno questioned, "Doctor, how could you betray me like this? You'll lose me if you do this."

Anthony wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The saying goes that the capable should do more. Right now, there are only a few of us who truly understand cell biology and genetics, so we have no choice but to step up."

Natsuno smiled wryly: "You can't treat me like a donkey. I think Professor Oak is quite knowledgeable. You can also bring Professor Natsuno over to explain fossil genetics. You can't rely on just me."

Seeing Xia Ye's bitter complaint, Anthony lowered his voice and said in a playful tone, "Xia Ye, you were fooled too, which means all the netizens believed it."

Ga?

Natsuno, who was building up her emotions, was abruptly interrupted by Anthony's words: "You're lying to me? So what's the truth?"

Anthony blushed slightly and said, "Actually, it's everyone's idea to help you build momentum and attract more people who want to learn."

"Your actual course schedule only includes two courses. In fact, the textbooks haven't been arranged yet. If you have time, come to Hongda University as soon as possible, and we'll compile the textbooks!"

Hearing this, Natsuno finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Doctor, give me a hint next time you want to do these things. You scared my heart so much. Don't do it again next time."

"Two courses, four classes in total, two days a week, that's fine, I agree. Oh, and you'll only be teaching one class!"

"We've just started, so we shouldn't recruit in large numbers. If we teach one class well, it's easier to expand later, since we have the teachers."

The broken windows theory was still in effect, and Xia Ye silently accepted the task of doubling his workload.

After calming down, Natsuno smiled again: "Doctor, aren't people underestimating the influence of genes? There must be quite a few people who want to learn about them, right?"

"Furthermore, I've heard that quite a few junior and even senior researchers want to switch to researching genetics as a side project. This can't be true, can it?"

Anthony nodded: "That's right, these senior researchers have also been assigned to teach other classes. This time, Hongda plans to enroll at least three classes of 50 students each."

"Just come over here and help me arrange the textbooks, the sooner the better!"

Xia Ye nodded: "We'll only be recruiting new students in August, and classes won't start until September. There's still time, so don't worry."

After hanging up the call, Xia Ye went downstairs. The five-star hotel takeout that Xiao Ya had ordered had already arrived. It was delivered by Kuailong, which was fast and reliable. The food was still steaming when he opened it, as if it had just come out of the oven.

They called Professor Oak back for lunch, and everyone ate until their bellies were round and full. Madoka, who was enjoying her meal, was then bribed by Aya with the promise that she would have a big meal every day from now on, and she was now acting as Aya's body pillow.

After the meal, Natsuno received a call from Daigo: "I've arrived in Kanto. Let's meet at the research building. Do you need someone to pick you up?"

Natsuno shook his head: "I'm not the same as I used to be, okay? I have flying and diving skills, and everyone in my group has unique abilities."

Daigo chuckled to himself, "Hey Natsuno-kun, did you get your pilot's license yet? Watch out, Watari..."

Reminded by Daigo, Natsuno suddenly remembered that he had enrolled in a flight instructor school in Konoha, and hadn't even taken the first test yet. He felt a bit like a Spartan.

"Uh, it's okay, I have a driver, he can take me. It's a serious matter, so please inform A-Du that he should be there on behalf of the Kanto Alliance."

Hearing Natsuno's words, Daigo became even more curious and lowered his voice: "Tell me what it is first, so I can inform Watari and make arrangements."

Xia Ye thought for a moment, since he would find out eventually anyway, so he simply lowered his voice and said, "Power Energy Capture Device."

Daigo on the other end of the phone widened his eyes instantly: "This... I understand. I will tell Watari. This is indeed a matter of great importance. If we are not careful, the world will be in chaos."

After hanging up the call, Xia Ye looked at Xiao Ya, his expression changed, and he quietly moved over to give the superpowered young lady a shoulder massage.

"Oh my, isn't this our beautiful, kind-hearted, and beloved Miss Cattleya? It's a pleasure to meet you. Let me give you a shoulder massage."

Upon seeing Natsuno's desperate attempt to escape, Cattleya immediately perked up: "Hmm, Natsuno, your skills are not bad, but this matter... is not easy to handle in principle."

"If you want me to be your driver, this isn't your average price. I'm Zhu Lan's best friend, so you'll have to pay extra."

Xia Ye glanced at Xiao Yuan and nodded emphatically: "Okay, Xiao Yuan, you can borrow her as a pillow for three nights."

Gadriya's eyes lit up, and she turned around, ready to raise the stakes, but then she saw that Natsuno had already taken out his phone.

"Sigh, forget it. I'll just go with Professor Oak. He should be there for the business over there."

The tide of battle turned instantly, and Xiaoya quickly pressed down on Xia Ye's hand, her face breaking into a fawning smile.

"How could I trouble you, Doctor? You're so inconsiderate. I'll just take you flying around, three nights it is. You can't sneak back in the middle of the night!"
