Chapter 71 Ryukia: Watch me drag my uncle onto the pirate ship!
The woman in front of them, dressed as a secretary with a watermelon-shaped haircut and engrossed in her phone, was completely unaware of Li Luochen and Jia Deliya's arrival, still absorbed in scrolling through TikTok.
"Cough cough."
Li Luochen coughed.
He recognized the woman in front of him as Ms. Zhenniao, the real secretary of the Rainbow Group.
"Uh-huh!"
Upon hearing the cough, Zhenniao jumped up and met Li Luochen and Jiadeliya's gaze.
Approximately three seconds.
Masahiro finally realized what was happening, tossed his phone to the side of the sofa, placed his hands on his thighs (covered in black stockings), and stood ramrod straight: "Masahiro is at your service, please give the order!"
Li Luochen and Gaderia: "?"
Who adjusted it like this for her?
Li Luochen was puzzled, but didn't dwell on it. Instead, he reached out his hand and asked, "Where's the secret seasoning? You should have brought it, right?"
"We're here, right here."
Masahiro quickly took out a delicate little box from her briefcase, entered the password, and then opened the box to reveal the items inside.
Its appearance is somewhat similar to the secret spicy seasoning, with a greenish-brown color and a bitter smell.
The item in front of him was the secret bitter seasoning that Li Luochen needed.
Feeding it to Guleton will unlock the [Cycling: Swimming] function.
In other words, sitting on Guleton's back will allow Guleton to swim in the water.
I'll be going to Arashi Island soon, and I'll be able to save money on renting water Pokémon.
"Mr. Li Luochen, this is what the boss asked me to bring you. What do you think of its condition? Is it satisfactory?"
The real bird held the box in front of Li Luochen for a while, until it got a little sore.
"Okay, this is fine, thank you."
Li Luochen took the box, thanked the real bird, and then closed the box.
"Should I use my family's resources to help you find out about the remaining few plants of the secret seasoning?"
Gadriya knew that Li Luochen had recently been searching for secret seasonings, and that he had already collected the spicy and bitter seasonings. He only needed three more to restore Guleton and Pokongyan's strength to its peak.
"Okay, keep an eye on it."
Li Luochen thought about the distribution and influence of the Cattleya family. If such a large family could help with the search, it would be much faster than him and Papa searching painstakingly.
"Okay, then I'll let the family know."
Cattleya walked aside to make a phone call.
"Mr. Li Luochen, this is my business card. If you need any services, please feel free to message me. I still have some matters to attend to with the boss, so I'll be leaving now."
Zhenniao handed over a business card with both hands, and after Li Luochen accepted it, he quickly left.
Li Luochen scanned the QR code on it and then threw the business card away.
Then, he sent a message to Sakaki.
[Yan Yanyan: Uncle Sakaki, the secret seasoning has arrived.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: Good to receive. I'll keep an eye out for information on other secret seasonings for you later.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: There's one more thing. Your uncle here has recently been communicating with the Eastern Alliance and we've decided to establish a new commercial district in your Rongcheng.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: Let's call it Rainbow Plaza for now. I'll be visiting the Eastern Huang region sometime, and I hope my nephew Luo Chen will do me the honor of bringing your fiancée to have a meal with me.]
In just three short sentences, Sakaki provided a great deal of information.
Ignore the first sentence.
The second sentence is off.
First, they established a business district, then they came to the Donghuang area to treat us to a meal, and they even wanted the two of us to eat together...
At first glance, it makes no mistake. Giovanni's public identity is the strongest gym leader in the Kanto League, a real estate tycoon, and also Li Luochen's god-uncle.
It's perfectly normal for an uncle to invite his nephew and niece-in-law to dinner.
But Li Luochen knew what was going on with Sakaki.
That's the mastermind behind the Rockets.
In this situation, it's best to avoid as much offline contact as possible.
Ok……
Let me give you a vague answer first.
With that in mind, Li Luochen gave his answer.
[Yan Yanyan: OK, if I have time then, I'll definitely bring Jiadeliya to have dinner with Uncle.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: That's wonderful! Then I, your uncle, will look forward to it. It's getting late where you are, so I won't disturb your rest any longer. I hope to be able to enjoy your wedding banquet soon. *covers mouth and laughs.*]
[Yan Yanyan: That's still a long way off; it might be quite a while.]
[Sakaki of the Earth: It's alright. As long as nothing unexpected happens, your uncle can wait indefinitely. Okay, uncle's really logging off now. Bye-bye.]
[Yan Yanyan: OK, Uncle, get some rest too, bye-bye.]
That's the end of the chat.
Seeing that the people on both sides were on the phone, Li Luochen simply sat on the sofa and scrolled through his phone.
[Feeding Li Luochen in the VIP lounge (6)]
[Yan Yan Yan invited Jonin A-Ju to join the group chat.]
[A-Ju: Mr. Yu Longdu, Mr. Qinglv, Mr. Chihong, I never expected to see you here.]
【crimson:……】
[Green: He said, "I didn't expect that either."]
[Yu Longdu: Welcome, Master Aju. By the way, how are your preparations going, Master Aju? In a little while, it will be time for you to take over as the King of Johto.]
[A-Ju: I'm ready and waiting to take over as Heavenly King.]
[The Idolmaster: Wow! It's A-Ju! @Yanyanyanchenbao, you've managed to snag another celebrity! But, not a single one of them is familiar to you~]
[The Idolmaster: @Yanyanyanchenbao, is there anyone you'd like to get to know? I already know Rika-neechan, Mashu-neechan, and Kisaki-neechan~]
[Qinglv: ? Little sister, you're quite something too, with such a wide network of connections?]
[The Idolmaster: Not really, it's just that I do a lot of commercial performances, and we've gotten familiar with each other over time!]
Looking at the chat history, Li Luochen just wanted to type a question mark in the public chat.
What's the background of The Idolmaster that allows it to attract so many beautiful female trainers?
But considering that the other party claims to be a regular guest at the Grand Contest, if that's true, then there's nothing wrong with it.
In response, Li Luochen also sent a message in the group.
[Yan Yanyan: Is there a champion option? (Smirking)]
[The Idolmaster: Do you want Daigo, Michael, or Karen?]
[Yan Yan Yan: Wow! I can even choose from the starter three! But, as long as I can actually bring them over, I won't be picky.]
Li Luochen is quite looking forward to the champion joining the group.
Putting everything else aside, it's pleasing to the eye and satisfying to look at.
"Luo Chen, I'm all set here. My dad said he'll give you this first, and then give you a bigger gift when we get to the Padiya region."
Pipa's voice came from afar.
"Wait a minute, let me check my phone."
Just as Li Luochen was about to put down his phone to reply to Papa, he heard a series of sounds coming from the background of his phone.
[The Idolmaster: @Yanyanyanchenbao, check out the live stream, there's a surprise.]
Li Luochen looked down at his phone, opened the live stream, and saw that someone had actually reached the position of Governor in the virtual world.
And this person's ID was...
Water Rice!
