Pokémon's Lord of Fear

【B：monotonically increasing】

【C：monotonically decreasing】

[D: Unable to determine]

Teng Shu rubbed his eyes, then opened them and looked at them. What the hell, he couldn't understand it at all. What on earth was this? Seeing these complex function intervals, Teng Shu thought of the pain of being dominated by advanced mathematics during his college years. So this economics entrance exam actually tests advanced mathematics. Sure enough, the difficulty of this temporary entrance exam is much higher than the normal school exam.

But if you think about it carefully, it does seem understandable. After all, others have worked hard to study from childhood to high school and take exams, but you go directly to college and the difficulty is the same, then it would be too unfair to these people.

Looking at Fugui scratching his head with a worried look on his face, Teng Shu couldn't help but smile.

In Pokémon battles, you can use cheats like [Fugui! Hold on!] [Fugui! Get out of the way!] [Fugui! Hold on!] It's hard to say whether you can hold on and then kill your opponent.

But the problem is, math is something that if you don't know the answer, you don't know the answer. For multiple-choice questions like this, Teng Shu can just choose C, but if it's a essay, then Teng Shu really has no idea and is completely confused.

"Scared!" Little Q jumped down from Teng Shu's head, then leaned over to take a look at Fugui's test paper, and then slapped C with its tail.

"Congratulations, Xiao Q, you have successfully mastered the exam secret of choosing C when you are indecisive." Teng Shu said with a smile. But who would have thought that when Fugui really filled in the answer, he actually filled in C, and the answer was also C, which made Teng Shu stunned.

Teng Shu looked at Xiao Q strangely. It was over. Could it be that Xiao Q was a genius?

A genius in advanced mathematics?

Teng Shu's thoughts instantly diverged.

There are also some mathematicians in the Pokémon world, and they have proposed some famous theories. However, some very famous conjectures in the previous life are not here, such as the famous Goldbach conjecture.

The proof of the 1+1=2 conjecture back then inspired countless amateur scientists and provided a fertile soil for amateur scientists to take root and sprout. But although it is called the proof of 1+1=2, it actually does not mean that. It was just simplified by the magazine at the time to make it easier for ordinary people to understand.

But who knew that people would think it was really 1+1. As a result, many people wrote to the Chinese Academy of Sciences saying that they had proved the Goldbach conjecture. Some people even took two apples and said that one apple plus one apple equals two apples, so they had proved the concept of 1+1=2.

Make people dumbfounded.

However, if Xiao Q is indeed very talented in mathematics, then Teng Shu would not mind cultivating Xiao Q's talent in this area and making Xiao Q an excellent mathematician Pokémon.

Thinking of this, Teng Shu wrote a simple math problem and asked Xiao Q to try it. As a result, Xiao Q took a look at it and slapped C with his tail.

Um.

9+9=27?

Teng Shu gave up. It seemed that Xiao Q simply liked the letter C.

"Fugui, don't be so nervous. Do you want me to ask a professional teacher to teach you?" Teng Shu couldn't help but ask when he saw Fugui still doing the homework.

It was beyond Teng Shu's expectation that the little guy Fugui liked economics. However, looking at Fugui's current look struggling with his grades, Teng Shu seemed to see himself during the final sprint of his senior year in high school.

Chapter 211: Ghost Pokémon's Hellish Joke

Although Fugui was a little arrogant, he had made some progress after being tortured with the examination papers on advanced mathematics required for admission. At least he did not insist on coming alone like before. Fugui agreed immediately.

Upon seeing this, Teng Shu contacted the old butler directly and asked him to find the best economics training teacher in the Hoenn area to give Fugui one-on-one guidance. Although the cost was a bit high, Teng Shu did not mind these small expenses. If Fugui could be admitted to the economics major at Hoenn University, then the money would be worth it.

After solving Fugui's study problem, Teng Shu felt a little more relaxed. During this period, Fugui would occasionally pull him aside to ask some questions, such as some professional economic terms, which made Teng Shu dizzy. Although he had studied economics in college, the problem was that he returned it to the teacher after graduation. How could he know how to answer these questions now?

Now that he has a professional teacher, Teng Shu no longer has to worry about Fugui's inquiries. However, if the teacher wants to come over, he has to wait until the afternoon. In the afternoon, the teacher can only arrive in Kanaz City. The other party is still at the rocket launch center in Green Ridge City, and no one knows what he is doing there.

"Xiao Q, Fugui wants to study economics in college. Is there anything you want to do?" Teng Shu touched Xiao Q's chin, which was soft, like pudding.

Speaking of which, Xiao Q has been with Fugui for quite a long time. Now Xiao Q spends every day with Teng Shu. Teng Shu really doesn't know what Xiao Q wants to do. After hearing what Teng Shu said, Xiao Q made a soft sound, then rubbed against Teng Shu's cheek, with eyes full of attachment.

Teng Shu didn't know what Xiao Q was talking about, but after so many years of getting along, Teng Shu could understand some of the general meaning. Xiao Q was saying that she wanted to be with him forever, and Teng Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Looking at Xiao Q's appearance, Teng Shu poked Xiao Q's head, then held Xiao Q in his arms and sat in his boss chair.

Little Q is the descendant of the overlord Mimikyuu, but except for some special Pokémon, most Pokémon don’t care too much about their children leaving them. Even when the children reach a certain age, Pokémon will drive their children away and let them go out to explore the world.

Just like those wild animals.

It's just that Xiao Q may have been spoiled too much by Teng Shu. Now he just lies on Teng Shu's body every day. He will not be used to it when Teng Shu is not around. He doesn't like scoring goals and has no other hobbies. His only hobby is probably watching cartoons.

Just when he was sitting in the boss chair and was about to close his eyes and rest, Zoroark walked in hurriedly. Teng Shu took a look at Zoroark, and this guy still maintained the same look as before. It seemed that Zoroark was planning to keep using the identity of Shizuka. However, this also made Teng Shu more curious. Could the story Zoroark told at the beginning be true?

After all, the abilities of ghost-type Pokémon are still varied, and the way they are born has not been thoroughly studied by Pokémon doctors until now. We only know that ghost-type Pokémon are generally born in places where living beings die, such as cemeteries like the Sengoku Volcano, which have many ghost Pokémon.

But as to whether these ghost Pokémon have any connection with the dead, Pokémon doctors believe that there is no connection.

Teng Shu felt that perhaps these doctors did not dare to say it out loud. After all, if they said there was a relationship, some very embarrassing situations might arise.

[Eye contact is the signal for battle! Let's fight! ]

[Okay! I'll send out my Pokémon first, the Haunter that was transformed from your ancestor's grave!]

[What?! You dare to use my grandpa to fight me! But luckily I was prepared! Come out, your grandma! ]

【What?! You did it too! 】

Wouldn't it be extremely embarrassing then?

When you think about the fact that the ghost Pokémon used in battles could very well be someone else's parents, children, or ancestors, and you're not even going to fight in a market, you'll just be besieged and killed by people. After all, everyone is afraid that after they die, they'll turn into a ghost Pokémon, and then be caught by others for a Pokémon battle. It's simply unbearable.

By then, the fight will turn into a family reunion meeting.

Therefore, ghost Pokémon cannot and cannot be transformed after the death of humans. It must be born through other means.

However, Little Q obviously has no concerns in this regard. It is the offspring of the overlord Mimic Hill. Naturally, it is not the incarnation of a human soul, nor was it born from a place rich in ghost energy.

"Boss, there is something I need you to take care of." Zoroark looked at Teng Shu and said anxiously. Teng Shu raised his eyebrows after hearing it. He thought about it and it seemed that there was nothing to do in the company now. How could there be something to deal with?

"What's the matter?" However, Teng Shu still asked curiously. Zoroark was his secretary, and basically no one would look for him unless it was something particularly important.

"It's like this." Zoroark handed over a document. Teng Shu took it and took a look. There was not much written on the document, but the stamp on it made Teng Shu sit up straight instantly.

The official seal of the alliance in the Padya region.

After Zoroark finished speaking, Teng Shu knew the details of the situation.

"So the Padia Alliance region wants to cooperate with us to hold a special event for the Padia region, imitating the Tom Tree Competition in Hoenn, and will also give us a generous reward?" Teng Shu pinched his eyebrows. This sounded very normal. After all, since the great success of the Tom Tree Competition, many regions have been very envious and want to get a piece of the pie.

However, Tom Tree has already set a good example, and organizing another Tom Tree competition may not generate as much popularity and traffic, so it is not surprising that they want to come up with something else.

just

"They sent people too?" Teng Shu looked at Zoroark strangely. Zoroark nodded. The representative of the Padia regional alliance was sitting outside.

Teng Shu hesitated for a moment, but still stood up to negotiate with the other party. After all, it was a major matter related to the alliance, and even Teng Shu could not underestimate it.

When Teng Shu saw the representative of this region, he raised his eyebrows.

There weren't many people, only eight, but they were all dressed very formally, the same clothes they wore at the Baogao Party. It was very grand but not particularly luxurious, and quite unique.

"Welcome, welcome." Teng Shu walked over with a smile. Little Q climbed up from Teng Shu's head and looked at the person in front of him curiously.

Chapter 212 Ghost Mother

".So what you mean is that you want to cooperate with our Ghost Pictures and organize a competition similar to the Tom Tree Competition in the Padilla area? And you want us to advance some money first?" Teng Shu squinted his eyes and looked at the elites in front of him. He had already smelled a hint of conspiracy.

When Teng Shu was cooperating with the Hoenn Alliance, he had never heard that he had to pay for it himself. Everything was done by the alliance itself. And although these guys in front of him said a lot of things, in the final analysis, if you want benefits, you have to advance the money first.

This reminded Teng Shu of some famous fraud cases in his previous life. Some fraud gangs would disguise themselves as foreign companies to invest, and would start with a project worth tens of billions of yuan, and then ask for a kickback. Once the kickback was paid, the investor would be deceived.

These people are so bold that they are even willing to defraud the authorities. They are extremely brave.

Moreover, the fraud methods in the previous life were endless, but no matter what kind of fraud it was, the ultimate goal was often for money, so as long as someone mentioned giving money or depositing money with a notary, they could be identified as a scammer. Teng Shu also became a little wary. Anyway, as long as he was asked to give the money first, Teng Shu would suspect that the other party had ulterior motives.

So after hearing that these guys wanted him to advance the money and then host the event, Teng Shu became wary.

This routine is so damn familiar, it's almost the same as the routine used by those daring people in the past, that is, to deceive people through these methods, give the sweet taste of high returns, and then take a seemingly insignificant reward.

"Yes, we need to do some initial publicity work first, and then if we succeed, we can share the profits in the long term according to the contract." The leading man said with a smile. Teng Shu also smiled when he saw this, and then made an excuse to go to the bathroom. Then Teng Shu called Ye Ci and asked whether the Padiya region planned to cooperate with their company.

The result was similar to what Teng Shu had thought. The Padilla Alliance had no intention of cooperating with Ghost Pictures at all. This group of people were scammers.

Teng Shu was a little amused and helpless, he really didn't expect these scammers to be so bold that they dared to come to his company to defraud. Did they think that he was a rich second-generation and therefore uneducated and easily deceived?

"Zoraya Shizuka, call Miss Junsha and ask them to come and arrest the people." Teng Shu pinched his eyebrows, gave Zoroark a word of instruction, and then returned to the meeting room to continue arguing with these scammers. When Junsha came, Teng Shu ended this boring performance and sent these scammers away.

"Boss, I didn't expect you could see through these people and they are scammers." Zoroark was a little surprised. It hadn't noticed this before. After all, these people looked very formal and had some documents and work permits. One could even find their identity information on the Internet.

Generally speaking, when it comes to searching on the Internet, there is basically no doubt about the identities of these people. Zoroark found that the photos of these people on the Internet were indeed working in the Padia Alliance, so he really thought that these people were formal employees of the Alliance.

"I guess they made a fake website temporarily. Besides, these clothes and work permits are very finely made and look like they cost a lot of money." Teng Shu looked at these things and couldn't help but sigh. These people really paid a lot in advance in order to cheat him of his money.

If Teng Shu had not asked Ye Ci and had foolishly believed it, then these people would have probably made a lot of money. However, now that Teng Shu had seen through their plan, all their investment had gone to waste.

As time passed, the editing work of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" was completed and it had been approved. It would be released soon.

Teng Shu very cleverly chose a very unique time. The release day of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" happened to be a special festival in the Pokémon world, which is a bit similar to the Ghost Festival.

"Brother, how did you find time to come back and watch a movie?" Teng Shu held two movie tickets in his hand, one for him and one for Daigo, with a strange look on his face.

"Isn't today the day to honor our ancestors? Champions are also human beings and they need to rest as well." Daigo bought popcorn with great interest. He looked very excited.

Teng Shu's mouth twitched. With the development of the times and science, the ancestor worship day in the Pokémon world has gradually become less complicated than before. When paying homage to their ancestors, people are more accustomed to putting out a bouquet of flowers, getting a glass of wine, etc. The form has gradually replaced the process, and there are even some online ancestor worship options on the Internet.

But my brother usually chooses

"By the way, Teng Shu, after we finish watching, let's go see mom." Daigo's voice was a little lower, and Teng Shu nodded silently when he heard it.

Zifuchi Kikyo, the mother of Tengshu and Daigo, and the wife of Hibiscus.

Teng Shu has never seen his mother in person. According to his old father, his mother died of illness not long after giving birth to Teng Shu, and his old father had no intention of remarrying, so now there are only three people in the Zfuchi family.

Teng Shu had only seen photos, but he also saw that gentle woman, with the same hair color as him and Daigo, very beautiful and gentle.

On the ancestor worship day, worshiping the mother has become a tradition of the Zfuchi family.

"But brother, are you sure you want to watch my movie?" Teng Shu couldn't help but ask as he looked at his brother.

For the movies he made, Teng Shu himself knew very well what was in his movies, where the ghosts would appear, where the plot would unfold, etc. He knew everything, so watching his own movies would feel like watching it again.

"Mainly I want to let my mother see it." Daigo rubbed Teng Shu's head with a smile. Teng Shu was stunned for a moment, didn't say anything, and followed his brother into the cinema.

A year ago on the Ancestor Memorial Day, Teng Shu had not yet started directing. Now, it is indeed the first time that he has directed on the Ancestor Memorial Day.

Teng Shu suddenly wanted to take pictures of something.

Horror element + family love = mother.

The story of a mother who becomes a ghost but is still unwilling to leave her child's side is a bit scary and serious, but Teng Shu thought about it and felt that it was indeed difficult for this movie to express that kind of emotion.

It would be better to make an animated film called Coral Bride. That animated film received some nominations and awards. Overall it is pretty good. As for the choice of director, Teng Shu plans to let Ada shoot it.

I originally wanted to choose "Hello, Li Huanying", but after thinking about it, I decided to choose an animation.
