Chapter 219 Planning
"Cauliflower monkey, cold water monkey!"
The attacks of Tornado and Tiree fell, and the two monkeys, one green and one blue, fell down. Seeing this, the chef who was full of confidence just now immediately put down the frying pan in his hand and ran forward to pick them up.
"I lost. Please wait for a moment, I will prepare the food right away!"
Seeing that the injuries of his two Pokémon were not serious, Chef Roger took out the Poké Ball and took the Pokémon back. He bowed slightly to the four people and walked into the kitchen with a frying pan.
"Tilei, Yanre, you've worked hard."
"Meow~"
"Meow~"
The battle just ended just enough to get them moving and warming up, which made the two active cats a little unsatisfied. However, the aroma of food in the air instantly dispelled their dissatisfaction. In this battle restaurant, Pokémon that participate in battles and perform well will also receive special food rewards.
The afternoon sun shone through the window lattice onto the empty plates on the dining table. The four young men on the chairs rubbed their bulging bellies with satisfaction. Two fearless little finches stood outside the windowsill, tilting their heads and curiously looking at the four people in the window, their eyes occasionally sweeping over the crumbs scattered on the table.
"Yuemei, take Fang Ci and Qi Shu to have fun in Miare City this afternoon. The doctor just sent me a message and I have to go back to work."
"Hey~" Before Yuemei could finish her words, Loya picked up the white coat on the chair and hurriedly walked out of the restaurant.
"Gulu~"
Seeing Luo Ya's leaving back, Fang Ciqing couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He did not forget that the two girls opposite had made an appointment to go shopping together this afternoon. Now that Luo Ya was gone, wouldn't he be the only one left to help carry the bags?
Thinking of this, Fang Ci couldn't help but doubt whether Luo Ya really received the doctor's text message. After all, he clearly saw his legs going weak after hearing that Yuemei and Qishu were going shopping.
"Forget it, this guy is always like this~" Yuemei seemed to have gotten used to it as she watched Luoya leave. She quickly put the matter behind her and turned to look at Qishu expectantly, "Qishu-chan, let's go shopping. It's the season change these two days, and the clothing stores in Miare City must have a lot of the latest styles of skirts!"
"Okay, okay!" When Qishu heard the word "shopping", the drowsiness he had just felt after lunch was instantly swept away.
"Well, in that case, I'll go put the luggage back at the hotel first. This is a good opportunity to plan our itinerary in the Carlos area this afternoon." Fang Ci stood up and said as soon as Qi Shu finished speaking.
"Okay~"
Seeing Fang Ci's look, Qi Shu of course knew what he was avoiding, but this time he had Yue Mei with him so he let him go for the time being.
"Then let's get going, Qishu-chan. I haven't been shopping in Miare City for a long time, and I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Okay!"
After saying that, the two beautiful girls ignored Fang Ci and skipped out of the restaurant arm in arm.
"call--!"
Seeing that the two of them really left, Fang Ci instantly collapsed back into his chair and breathed a long sigh of relief.
A moment later, the sunlight outside the window was already shining on Fang Ci's handsome face. Seeing this, Fang Ci did not delay any longer and put on his big backpack and walked out of the restaurant. Before leaving, he did not forget to pick up a piece of uneaten bread from Qishu's plate.
After walking out of the restaurant and finding a quiet place, Fang Ci crumpled the bread in his hand. Seeing this, the little sparrows watching outside the window immediately surrounded Fang Ci and landed on the ground to peck at the bread crumbs. A brave little guy even landed directly on the palm of his hand, pecking at it with its little beak, making his palm itchy.
After all the bread was eaten, the little sparrows flew around Fang Ci as if to express their gratitude and then flew away chirping happily.
Fang Ci shook off the residue between his fingers and stretched out lazily after maintaining the same position for a long time in order not to disturb the little sparrow. The first noon in the Carlos area was unexpectedly good!
Miare City is indeed one of the most prominent metropolises in the Pokémon world. Its crisscrossing roads are a nightmare for those with poor sense of direction. Even Fang Ci, who has always had a good sense of direction, couldn't find the hotel after walking through the streets and alleys for a long time while looking at the map. Instead, he got himself dizzy and had to give up the naive idea of finding the hotel on his own.
After walking through the streets and alleys of Miare City for a long time, Fang Ci finally found a saddled goat dozing off on the side of a road.
The mount goat transportation service is one of the characteristics of Miare City. Fang Ci, who had made some travel plans in advance, saw the tall mount goat on the side of the road and instantly felt like he had met a savior. He ignored the puzzled looks of passers-by and ran towards the mount goat.
"Mount Goat, can you take me to the Xiulishi Hotel?"
"Mea~"
Hearing Fang Ci's voice, the goat opened its eyes drowsily. After it understood what was going on, it gently raised its neck to reveal the small shoulder bag hanging under its neck.
Seeing this, Fang Ci immediately understood and took out two coins and put them in the small bag.
"Mea~"
Seeing that Fang Ci had already paid, the professionally trained goat immediately knelt down in front of Fang Ci.
Seeing this, Fang Ci was overjoyed and immediately jumped onto the goat. After Fang Ci sat firmly, the goat slowly stood up and walked leisurely towards the direction of Xiuli World Hotel.
The reason why Fang Ci chose to ride a goat instead of a taxi was because while riding on the back of the goat to his destination, he could fully appreciate the scenery along the way and feel the breath of the city firsthand.
Miare City was filled with an atmosphere of romance and art. The city's streetscape was like a flowing painting, delicate and vivid. With the leisurely steps of the goat on his mount, it slowly appeared in front of Fang Ci.
The first thing that comes into view is the wide and busy streets. On both sides of the streets, there are towering buildings, each of which exudes a unique charm. The exquisite carvings, gorgeous murals, and artistic lighting make people feel like they are in a palace of art. There is an endless stream of pedestrians on the streets, some strolling leisurely, some rushing on their way, all seeming so harmonious and orderly.
At the corners of the street, you can often see exquisite cafes and snack stalls. On the open-air seats of the cafes, people leisurely sip coffee and enjoy the afternoon sun. In front of the snack stalls, Pokémon and trainers are crowded, tasting all kinds of delicious snacks with satisfied smiles on their faces.
Continuing along the street, Fang Ci saw a spacious square. In the center of the square stood a huge fountain, the water splashing with colorful light under the sunlight. Around the fountain were groups of Pokémon and trainers, who were either playing or communicating, forming a vivid picture.
There are many places of interest and historical sites around the square, including a magnificent church modeled after Notre Dame, a romantic sapphire river, and galleries and museums full of art. These attractions attract countless tourists to visit and make them linger.
The Xiuli Hotel is located less than a hundred meters to the left of the world-famous Miare Art Museum. The whole hotel looks like a medieval castle from the outside. Both its shape and decoration reveal the atmosphere of art and luxury.
After registering at the front desk and under the guidance of the waiter, Fang Ci finally found his room after going through a lot of hardships.
After the waiter said goodbye, Fang Ci, who was almost exhausted from getting lost, lay down on the big bed in the middle of the room and closed his eyes tiredly.
Half an hour later, Fang Ci, who had recovered, slowly opened his eyes. He had told Qishu that he would come back to make a strategy, but he ended up wasting too much time on the road. If he didn't hurry up and make the strategy now, it would be terrible if Qishu wouldn't be able to see it when he came back.
Fortunately, the Kalos region, which has a long history, has no shortage of prosperous people. Fang Ci quickly marked several must-visit places on the map.
In addition to Miare City, the most famous place in Kalos is the Balfam Palace of Incense, which was built 300 years ago. Although the ticket price is a bit expensive, as the best-preserved and open ancient palace in the world, it is definitely a must-visit place for people traveling to Kalos.
The second is the Refining Tower located in the city of Sala. Needless to say, learning and mastering super evolution was one of the main purposes of Fang Ci and Qishu coming to Carlos, so they must go to this place.
In addition, he has included the largest Poké Ball manufacturing factory in Carlos, the Carlos Canyon famous for its aerial battles, the Sandalwood Forest famous for its forest bathing, the mysterious castle in the swamp, and the Mirror Cave which is said to be full of natural mirrors.
Finally, after seeing the results of his half-day work, Fang Ci nodded with satisfaction. Not only did he mark the location on the map, he also planned a reasonable route based on the distance of the location. He even searched the Internet for the characteristics and strategies of each destination.
"If this is the case, even if Qi Shu comes back, he won't have anything to say!"
After carefully putting away the prepared strategy guide, Fang Ci lay down on the soft big bed again. Looking at the empty bed beside him, Fang Ci actually regretted not going shopping with Qishu.
After getting used to being with Qishu all the time these days, even being separated for just one afternoon felt particularly difficult for him.
The difficult time lasted until the evening, when the golden sunset shone through the gaps in the curtains. Fang Ci, who was almost bored to death in the hotel, finally heard some unusual noises coming from the door.
Sure enough, not long after, Qishu opened the door of the hotel room with a smile on her face. A warm feeling came over her. She was carrying large and small bags full of newly bought clothes, as if the whole world was packed into these bags. Her eyes were shining with excitement, as if she had discovered a treasure.
"Fang Ci, look!" She shouted happily, placing the bags in her hands one by one on the bed, as if she was setting up a small fashion show. She couldn't wait to open the bags one by one, showing each new piece of clothing, each of which looked so unique, as if it was tailor-made for her.
"How is it? Does it look good?" She asked Fang Ci, who was sitting beside the bed, while spinning around. Her face was filled with a happy and satisfied smile, as if she had seen the admiring light in Fang Ci's eyes.
Fang Ci was infected by her enthusiasm, smiled and nodded, saying: "Every piece is beautiful, you look good in anything." His voice was gentle and sincere, making Qi Shu feel extremely happy and satisfied.
Qi Shu was even more delighted after hearing this. She picked up a piece of clothing and gestured in front of Fang Ci, imagining how she would look in it. Her words were full of expectations and longings for the future, as if she had already seen herself wearing these new clothes and walking on the street with Fang Ci.
The whole room was filled with an atmosphere of happiness and warmth. Qishu and Fang Ci's laughter echoed in the room, as if the whole world was infected by their happiness.
"Yuemei and Luoya have already booked a hotel for us tonight, so let's pack up quickly!" After sorting out all the clothes he had bought, Qishu remembered what Yuemei had told him before they left.
"Good~"
The moment Qi Shu came back, the slight depression that had troubled Fang Ci for the entire afternoon was instantly swept away, and he regained his usual energetic self.
They walked out of the hotel hand in hand. The golden sunset sprinkled on the quaint streets added a different charm to this beautiful city.
"Wang~"
Just as the two were immersed in this beautiful evening street scene, a dog barking suddenly interrupted the mood. Looking back, they saw a group of dirty-haired puppy Pokémon marching through the street.
Among this group of dog Pokémon there is Dorimia, whose originally pure white fur has now turned hard and yellow, there is the long-haired dog, whose fur has grown so long that it drags on the ground and is covered in all kinds of dirt, and there is Little Blue, who is completely covered in dust and no trace of his original appearance can be seen at all.
"What are they doing?" Seeing the Pokémon that were obviously not of the same race but were moving in groups very harmoniously and were all dirty, Fang Ci looked at Qi Shu in confusion. The scene before him was really beyond his knowledge.
"Today, when Yuemei and I were shopping, we also encountered a similar group. Yuemei said that there was a period of pet fever in Miare City. Those rich ladies collected many cute cats and dogs from all over the world to compete with each other. But after the fever of this matter passed, those ladies quickly found new hobbies and ways to compete with each other, so many elves that were originally pets were abandoned. In addition to these dogs, we also encountered groups of meows and pickpocket cats this afternoon."
After hearing what Qishu said, Fang Ci suddenly felt as if there was a lump in his chest. He looked at the dirty backs of the dogs and couldn't calm down for a long time.
