Chapter 218: Citron and Vladali, an Invitation From Vladali

"Then I'll trouble you to send Dragonite to the Pokémon Center. Please keep what you saw today a secret from Citron."

Limonai put his hands together and asked the referee.

The referee naturally knew what Limonai meant and nodded slightly: "I understand, as always, right?"

Limonai smiled awkwardly and waved to the referee who was leaving.

Since Citron became the gym leader, he was increasingly busy. As a father who loved his son, he would occasionally bring Dragonite to take over for a day or two, and over time he became familiar with the referee.

After arranging the Dragonite, Limonai turned to look at Luo Mu and asked, "Do we really not have to go to the Pokémon Center?"

At this time, Luo Mu had just treated the electric shock injury and the numbness that came like a tide after the battle for Arcanine. He touched Arcanine's head in appreciation and put it back into the Poké Ball.

After doing all this, Luo Mu replied: "I also have a partner with electric Pokémon. Practice between them is always inevitable to get injured. Over time, I can handle the injuries left by electric attacks skillfully."

"Besides, because of the energy blocking of Flash Charge, Windy Dog actually only suffered some superficial injuries, but it looks a bit scary."

Limonai: "."

Thinking of the severe burns on the body of Dragonite, Limonai's mouth twitched. Although Dragonite is not specialized in physical strength, is its physical fitness too bad?

After calming down, Limonai extended his hand to Luo Mu: "It seems that you really don't have any extra thoughts about Citron. I apologize for my suspicion first."

Luo Mu extended his hand back and shook it, smiling: "It's okay. After all, he is a famous inventor genius in the Kalos region. It's normal for you to be cautious."

The two smiled at each other. The friendship between trainers is always established so quickly. A fight can determine whether the other party is worth making friends with.

Limone put his arm around Luo Mu's shoulder, smiling, "It just so happens that no one has made an appointment for a gym battle this morning. Citron will probably be back at noon. You are from Padia, so this must be your first time in the Kalos region."

"How about it? Do you want me, a local, to take you on a tour? Even though I am like this, I still have a lot of connections. I can take you through the back door of many attractions without queuing."

Luo Mu wanted to refuse, but Limone's last words moved him.

Indeed, having a local connection makes traveling a lot more convenient.

Not to mention that Zhihuixing used telepathy to poke him crazily, saying that instead of trying his luck at buying the Mialegre pie at 13:00 in the afternoon, which might have a long queue, it would be better to ask Limone if he has any connections.

So, the words came out of his mouth.

"I want to buy some Miaregre pies as souvenirs, and I also want to visit the famous Miare Art Museum, is that okay?"

Luo Mu looked at Limone. The last request was made by Zhihuixing, even though Luo Mu had no interest in art.

Limone gave a thumbs up and patted his chest: "Leave it to me!"

Under Limone's leadership, Luo Mu once again experienced the comfort of having someone in the court.

It's true that Limone has a wide range of connections in Miare City. There is no need to queue up for Miaregre pies. Limone took Luo Mu directly from the back of the store and returned with several large boxes.

After putting the souvenirs back in the hotel, Limone took Luo Mu and Zhihuixing to visit the famous Miare Art Museum.

The key point is that today is the closing day of the Miare Art Museum, but Limone directly asked someone to take them in.

Luo Mu couldn't understand any of those art paintings, but Zhihuixing was enjoying them. Luo Mu couldn't tell whether he was a human or Zhihuixing was a human.

How come he didn't have any artistic talent at all?

During this period, Limone also asked Luo Mu what he wanted to find Citron. Luo Mu didn't hide anything and told him the story of the Leke cat waiting for Citron in the electric attribute Pokémon Academy.

When Limone took Luo Mu back to the Miare Gym, a blond boy in a jumpsuit was standing in the gym chatting with a tall, broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted red-haired lion-headed man.

The blond boy was naturally Citron, whom Luo Mu was waiting for. He looked about twelve or thirteen years old. At this age, he had already achieved the achievements of an inventor. In the future, he seemed to have invented an epoch-making invention such as the Rotom Illustrated Book.

He really deserved the title of a young genius.

The other person was not so wonderful. If Luo Mu remembered correctly, he should be

Fladali.

As if they had noticed the return of Luo Mu and Limone, Xitron and Vladali, who were chatting, turned around and saw Limone. Xitron's eyes lit up for a moment.

Limone knew his son's personality. He was not good at socializing, liked to bury his head in work, was easily shy, was a little unconfident, and was particularly bad at rejecting others.

He remembered that the man should be Fladali, the director of the Fladali Institute. It was rumored that he had done many good deeds and helped many poor people in the Kalos region. Although he gradually stopped doing these things later, Fladali's good deeds were still well known.

Even the popular female star and champion Karuna in the Kalos region chose to endorse the holographic image communicator invented by their institute because of Fladali's reputation.

But for some reason, Limone always felt that he couldn't like Fladali from the bottom of his heart.

"Dad!"

Xitron's voice was mixed with an imperceptible joy, as if Limone's arrival helped him out.

Limone nodded: "Xitron, and Mr. Vladali."

Xitron rushed to Limone, hugged him, looked at Luo Mu curiously, and asked: "Dad, who is this?"

"He is Luo Mu, your father's friend."

Limone looked at Luo Mu with a smile in his eyes for a moment, and Luo Mu also tacitly accepted this identity. In a way, it would be easier to do things this way.

Luo Mu greeted: "Hello, Xitron."

Although he was a little curious about why Limone had such a young friend like Luo Mu, Xitron still said politely: "Hello, Brother Luo Mu."

Without waiting for Luo Mu's response, Vladali, with a smile on his face, also walked into the circle of the three people in a familiar manner. He was neither hurried nor slow, as if he was born with some kind of leadership and trustworthy power.

"Since your father has returned, I will take my leave here. Mr. Xitron, I hope you can consider my invitation. The Fradali Institute guarantees to give you the best treatment, and at the same time, you can study your favorite technological inventions to your heart's content."

Luo Mu's mouth twitched at the side, and said that his favorite technological invention was probably a super-evolution energy collector or the development of the Zygarde thermal imager.

Xitron hesitated and said, "I"

Limonai suddenly stood in front of Xitron and smiled at Fradali, "He is still young, and his work as a gym leader is already busy enough. There is no need to take on other positions for the time being."

"Mr. Fradali, please go back."

Facing Limonai's overt and covert order to expel him, Fradali was not annoyed at all. After a free and easy smile, his eyes swept over Luo Mu, who was silent, and the Zhihuixing beside him, and a little surprise appeared between his eyebrows.

The Zhihuixingxing was well-bred, as if it had the magic to attract people's attention and make them fall deeply into it.

Fladali had seen the champion Caruna's Gardevoir, which also had such characteristics. He remembered that this seemed to be called by scholars as the characteristics of a powerful psychic Pokémon?

Fladali recalled Limone's introduction just now. This person was called Luo Mu by Limone. He looked very young. He had no impression of him. Was he a new trainer?

It just so happened that the organization lacked some combat talents. Only the boy with Charmeleon who met in the ruins before could be on the stage. Why not invite him to help him collect energy for super evolution?

With a hint of interest between his eyebrows, Fladali took out a business card from his pocket and inserted it into the shirt pocket of Luo Mu who looked surprised.

"Mr. Luo Mu, our Vladali Research Institute is actually short of combat talents. You should understand that we need to collect data in the wild."

"If you are interested, you can contact me at any time through the contact information on the business card."

After the words fell, Vladali, who knew that Limone was not very interested in him, did not give Luo Mu a chance to refuse. He waved and got on the elevator to leave the Prism Tower.

Later, when Limone was not around, there would be plenty of opportunities to invite Xitron and Luo Mu.

After Vladali left, Luo Mu really couldn't hold it anymore. Looking at the business card in his hand, Luo Mu didn't expect that one day he would be recruited by the big villain in the Kalos region.

Looking at the direction where Vladali left, Limone said in a deep voice: "Luo Mu, although this is just my personal opinion, you'd better not agree to Vladali. He gives me a bad feeling."

Xitron looked up at Limone in confusion: "But. Isn't Mr. Vladali a kind man who has helped many poor people?"

Rubbing Xitron's head, Limone said with a sly smile in Xitron's wailing: "So you are still a child. You can't just look at the surface of things."

Xitron hugged his head and moved away from Limone, saying excitedly: "I'm not a child anymore. I'm the gym leader now! If you really want to say it, Yurika is the child, okay?"

At this time, Luo Mu held up the business card given by Vladali and suddenly asked: "Where is the trash can?"

The two were stunned and said in unison: "Over there."

After a while, Luo Mu, who had nothing in his hand, returned to the two of them. He looked at Xitron calmly. Xitron was inexplicably nervous and wanted to retreat behind Limone.

To him, Luo Mu was just his father's friend in name only, but actually he was still a stranger.

Limone raised his eyebrows, put his big hand on Xitron's shoulder and pushed him forward. Xitron staggered and turned his head to look at his father with a look of confusion like a pitiful puppy.

Limone ignored his eyes and said in a deep voice: "As a man, there are some things that cannot be avoided, especially the mistakes you made when you were young!"

Xitron didn't know why Limone was so serious and was a little at a loss. At this time, Luo Mu came forward with Zhihuixing and said: "Xitron, let's talk about the Leke cat that you abandoned."
