" In addition, if you want to become a Pokémon scholar and apply for an internship at Dr. Oki's research institute in the future, you can't just build a good relationship and get familiar with him in advance. If you have the time, you might as well read a few more PhD academic papers.”
"One more thing. Although I admit that he is 'talent', I don't like the term' genius'. As for the genius researcher you mentioned just now, I won't comment on him because I haven't read his academic works.”
" But as far as I know, there's a rather famous researcher in Kanto's Withered Leaf City. He's a doctor who studies the ecology of fossilized Pokémon and ancient Pokémon. His name is Masaaki.”
"As for the genius researcher you mentioned, Dr. Sakuragi, forgive my ignorance, but I've never heard of him.”The boy called Xiao Lin had sharp and crafty words. He made Xiao Hao's face turn red.
"By the way, my future research partner, Si Cong, do you have anything to add to my analysis and explanation just now?”
Xiao Lin also proudly crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked his companion beside him.
" Future Professor Kobayashi, I agree with all the points you just stated. However, I need to add one more point to this guy's evaluation.”
"Okay, Dr. Si Cong, please go ahead.”The boy named Xiao Lin didn't look sideways. He used a disdainful gaze to look at the young man who introduced himself as Xiao Hao.
" That is, a guy who only knows how to play tricks and pull strings is not worthy of being our friend.”
"One more thing, the Dr. Sakuragi you speak of is your friend's father, not yours.”
"The brown-haired student, Xiao Mao, who is sitting in the second last row of this car, is Dr. Oki's grandson. However, in the past two days, he has been polite to us and has never shown off his identity.”
"Also, the friend you mentioned, Professor Sakuragi's daughter, Miss Xiaochun, although we haven't had much contact in the past two days, it's obvious that she's a very polite and educated young lady.”
"As for you, this Young Master won't belittle you too much. I'll just say one thing: you're a very insincere person. We're not interested in you, and we don't want to make friends with someone like you.”
After saying this, the boy called Si Cong turned his head and did not take the young man called Xiao Hao seriously at all.
"You…you…you two!!!”Xiao Hao had thought that he would be able to make two new friends before entering the summer camp.
He did not expect these two people to be so arrogant. Their words were sharp and mean, and their attitudes were arrogant. They mocked him fiercely.
Recalling what the two of them had just said, Xiao Hao's face turned red with embarrassment and anger. However, he could not find any words to refute what the other party had said.
"Hmph ~(^)~ If you don't want to be friends with me, then don't be friends with me.”He squinted his eyes, pouted his lips, and muttered.
The young man with a hairpin on his head crossed his arms in front of his chest, crossed his legs, and turned his head away indignantly.
"Xiao Lin, ignore him. Let's continue our discussion.”
“……”
“……”
Xiao Chun didn't know that she had just left her childhood friend, Xiao Hao, and had an unpleasant quarrel with the two boys sitting next to her.
She had not found her seat yet. At this moment, her small face was filled with nervousness as she walked toward the back of the car, looking anxiously for an empty seat.
Fortunately, the number of seats on the bus corresponded to the number of students, so there was no such thing as a lack of seats. After searching for a while with a timid gaze and an anxious expression, he finally found an empty seat in the third last row of the bus.
"What the ~ Excuse me, is this seat taken? Can I sit here?" Xiao Chun asked the girl sitting next to the empty seat timidly.
"Oh, no one's here. You can sit here.”Xiaolan, who was leaning on the back of the chair and chatting with Billy, Mao, and the others in the back row, heard the girl's timid voice. After turning around and reacting, it quickly replied.
" Thank you!" Xiao Chun, who was holding her pink satchel, thanked Xiao Lan timidly before sitting down.
As if it could see the girl's awkwardness and nervousness, Xiaolan greeted her warmly and started talking.
"Hello, my name is Xiao Lan. I remember that your name is Xiao Chun, right?”
" Yes, yes." Xiao Chun nodded shyly.
Xiao Lan's personality was more cheerful. She reached out and placed her hand on Xiao Chun's tightly clenched hands because of nervousness.
"Xiao Chun, don't be nervous. We're all here to participate in the Pokémon summer camp. We might become very good friends if we get to know each other better.”Xiaolan revealed a very warm and sunny smile.
"By the way, does your stomach still feel a little uncomfortable? When I just came out from home, there was some hot water in the kettle. I'll pour you some.”
She suddenly remembered that Xiao Chun's good friend, the boy she didn't like very much, had said that Xiao Chun and him were late because Xiao Chun's stomach was uncomfortable.
Xiao Lan, who had carefully thought of this, hurriedly took out a thermos flask from her backpack and prepared to pour some hot water for Xiao Chun to warm her stomach.
However, Xiao Chun could not help but feel puzzled about Xiao Lan's considerate and warm actions.
"No need, no need. My stomach doesn't feel uncomfortable.”Xiao Chun hurriedly waved her hand and explained.
Actually, the reason why she was so nervous was because she had no other friends besides her childhood friend, Xiao Hao. Moreover, she rarely interacted with people she was not familiar with at such a close distance.
"Isn't it because your stomach is uncomfortable? But just now…"
Before Xiaolan could finish, Billy, who was sitting in the row behind Xiaolan, Shana, and Serena, suddenly asked,
"Xiao Chun, why were you and your good friend late just now?”
Everyone who was originally doing their own things and chatting did not pay attention to Xiao Chun.
When they heard Billy's sudden question, the members of the small group who were vaguely led by him were also attracted by it at this moment, and they curiously looked at Xiao Chun.
"I'm sorry that Xiao Hao and I were late just now and made everyone wait.”Before she could answer Billy's question, the gentle and obedient Xiao Chun apologized to everyone again.
"It's okay, but why were you late just now? Did something happen?”Billy shook his head and continued to ask Xiao Chun with a smile that made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.
This question did not involve any personal privacy or secrets. Xiao Chun answered without thinking.
"I'm very sorry. When I came over just now, Xiao Hao said that his shoes were a little dirty from walking on the dirt road for too long, so he found water to wipe his shoes at the public toilet near the town entrance.”
Xiao Chun answered truthfully.
