Chapter 626 Xijiana's Thoughts
After the banquet, both Kukui and Barnett were very enthusiastic and invited Yang Ming to visit their homes, but Yang Ming politely declined.
"I'm sorry, I can't hold my liquor. I'd better visit you another day."
Hearing the words "brother and sister-in-law", Barnett's face flushed and she said coquettishly, "This boy is so sweet." Kukui laughed heartily, "Okay, then we'll wait for you to come another day, brother." Yang Ming nodded slightly, said goodbye to them and turned to leave.
"Minister, is this really okay?" On the way to the residence, Adjutant Jones reminded quietly, "These are the funds allocated by the organization for us to establish a branch. If other cadres find out, they may impeach you from the leader's side."
"It's okay. This investment is necessary and it doesn't count as misappropriation of public funds," Yang Ming said calmly. "We have no roots in Alola and are in urgent need of fresh blood. Compared to recruiting idle people in society to serve as subordinates, school graduates are a better source of soldiers and the foundation for us to take root in the Alola region."
"So that's how it is," Jones suddenly realized. "The minister is really smart!"
In fact, there is one thing Yang Ming did not say. Alola School is not the talent training base of the Rockets, but his own "Whampoa Military Academy". If he wants to leave the Rockets in the future, the graduates of this school will only become his source of soldiers.
Back at the hotel, Xi Jiana clamored to stay in the same room with Yang Ming, and Yang Ming threw her into the bathroom like a chicken.
"Finish your shower first before you come out," Yang Ming said unhappily, "Really? You've been sleeping outdoors for almost two months, and you don't even take a good shower and you want to sleep in someone else's bed."
"You are restricting my freedom!" Xi Jiana protested in the bathroom, "I can wash whenever I want! And I don't have any change of clothes. Do you want to see me come out naked?"
"I don't want to see it at all," Yang Ming couldn't help rolling his eyes, "and there are bath towels in the bathroom, can't you just grab one and put it on?"
"No, I've already taken a bath for you, don't you have any reward for me?"
"Are you born in the year of the cat? You hate taking a bath so much," Yang Ming was a little speechless. "How about this, if you take a bath, I will accompany you all night."
"Really? Don't regret it."
In this way, Yang Ming played games with Xi Jiana all night.
"Hahaha, one million horsepower of strength, Sea Tiger Explosion Fist!"
"Hehe, look at my ninety thousand horsepower strength, the Hand of God!"
The two of them played for a long time until they were tired and then lay down to rest. It was already dawn.
"You know, I've never been exposed to electronic products before." Xijiana suddenly said.
"Is that so? That's a pity."
"In our Meteor Cave, we have always used the most ancient method to train Pokémon, and never use electronic products such as Pokémon Dictionaries. Even the Poké Balls are different from the ones you use." After saying that, Shijiana threw him a Poké Ball.
Yang Ming took a closer look and found that this Poké Ball was completely handmade, and the craftsmanship was a bit similar to the Poké Balls made by Mr. Steel in Hinoki Town.
"Is this the rule of you Meteorites? Living in seclusion and away from all industrial products?"
"That's one of the reasons, but when it comes down to it, I hate these things." Xijiana turned her face away.
"why is that?"
"Because this is blasphemy against the gods!" Shijiana suddenly became excited. "Do you know that our Hoenn region was created by the power of the three legendary Pokémon: Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza. It can be said that it is nature that gave us humans the right to survive."
"But now that humans have no worries about survival, they actually want to use the power of technology to control the gods who gave them everything. It's okay for organizations like the Aqua Fleet and the Magma Team. Although they are ambitious, at least they still have some respect for Groudon and Kyogre."
"The most despicable ones are Dewen Company and Da Zijin Co., Ltd. These companies rely on their own technology and actually try to study the secrets of Lord Rayquaza. This is really unforgivable!"
"Equally despicable are the Liuli Citizens. They are obviously the ancient remnants of us Liuxing Citizens, but they have been completely captured by the material life of modern society. Even the current leader Mikuli is addicted to boring activities such as the Gorgeous Competition and is unwilling to fulfill his duties as a Liuli Citizen. He is really a scum!"
"So when you said 'save Hoenn', you meant freeing people from modern technology?"
"Yes! If humans continue to be so arrogant, they will anger the gods sooner or later, and then Fengyuan will be destroyed!" Xijia suddenly pounced on Yang Ming, "You will definitely help me, right? Let's protect Fengyuan together and not let these arrogant people destroy this world! Okay?"
Yang Ming was thrown onto the bed unexpectedly. He wanted to hit the other person with force, so he had to turn his head away and remind him: "Don't get excited. You are only wearing a bath towel now. It's easy to expose yourself if you do this."
"Ah?!" Xijiana finally reacted and her cheeks turned red instantly. She hurriedly sat up straight and wrapped herself tightly in the bath towel.
"I roughly understand your idea," Yang Ming said calmly, "The reason why you were so reluctant to take a shower just now was because you didn't want to use modern shower equipment, right?"
"Of course, I always bathe in places with fountains and lakes."
"You've never played video games before, right? That's why you were so engrossed in the game just now."
"This, this is just to monitor the enemy and experience how terrible these things that poison young people are!" Xijia's face turned red, and she tried to defend herself, "I'm not interested in playing this kind of thing! This is all for the overall situation!"
Yang Ming was amused by his stubborn attitude: "Okay, whatever you say, I have to go to work, you can sleep here first."
"Hey, but you haven't slept all night..." Xijiana said in surprise.
"For people like us, not sleeping for a few days is no big deal. Besides, I don't like sleeping in the same bed with girls. Let's go." After saying that, Yang Ming no longer paid attention to the surprised Xi Jiana, closed the door and left.
"I never thought that Xijiana's true opposite is actually like this..." Yang Ming thought to himself after leaving the room.
"This girl hasn't told me much truth since she approached me to kill me, but after this test, at least Shijiana's desire to 'save Hoenn' is real. There should be no conflict of interest with me, and naturally there is no reason for her to be hostile to me. At least now she is trustworthy."
"...I hope you won't become my enemy in the future."
