I, the fighting party, became Xiaozhi's golden finger

Sakura came over, holding a blue water drop badge in her hand. She stretched out her hand, put the badge in Xiaozhi's hand, and said:

"Congratulations on defeating the youngest sister of our four sisters of Hualan. This is the badge of our Hualan Gym."

Xiaozhi nodded repeatedly, put Pidgeot back into the Poké Ball, and said with an excitement that could not be suppressed: "Great! I got the blue badge!"

Li Qingfeng saw Xiaozhi so happy and praised him repeatedly: "Well done, congratulations on getting one step closer to the Quartz Conference. There are still six badges to go. Come on, young man. '

It was already evening when they left the Hualan Gym, and Xiaogang also came here to meet the two. When he saw Xiaozhi with a water drop badge on his hand, he also congratulated him.

After saying goodbye to Xiaoxia's three sisters, the three of them prepared to stay in Hualan City for one night.

Misty looked at the two apologetically and said, "Xiaozhi, Xiaogang, I'm sorry, I have to accompany my sister tonight, see you tomorrow."

Xiaozhi waved his hand quickly: "It's okay, Xiaoxia, Xiaogang and I are going to see if there is any good place outside, you can accompany your sisters to reminisce about the past."

Xiaogang is not yet at the level of "Flame King" and will not go up to a beautiful woman to express his love: "Xiaoxia, see you tomorrow."

After the two left, Xiaoxia followed her three sisters back to the gym, talking and laughing.

As soon as she entered the gym, Xiaoxia said unhappily: "What's the matter with you three?! Have you slacked off in Pokémon training?!"

"Oh, Xiaoxia, listen to us... No, explain." Sakura smiled awkwardly and hid behind the other two.

————At the same time, Xiaozhi's side————

"By the way, Xiaogang, let me tell you..." While walking, Xiaozhi told Xiaogang about his cooperation with Xiaomao to capture the Golden Pearl Bridge.

Xiaogang nodded slightly after hearing this: "So there is such a place in Hualan City?"

"Yes... By the way, I found a good place, come and have a look." Xiaozhi pulled Xiaogang and walked towards the south of Hualan City. Xiaogang was a little confused. He didn't understand why Xiaozhi suddenly got excited.

However, if Xiaozhi wanted to go, it would be fine for him to go with him.

As for why... Just now, Li Qingfeng said to Xiaozhi:

'By the way, I remember that there seems to be a bicycle shop in Hualan City, but I don't know how much it will sell for. If you are in a hurry to pay the other party back, you can go there and try your luck. '

After learning about this, Xiaozhi hurriedly pulled Xiaogang to the bicycle shop. He had received a reward from Miss Junsha, and he must have enough money to buy a bicycle.

Soon, after the two asked for directions, they finally came to a bicycle shop that was almost closed down.

This bicycle shop looked shabby, the storefront looked old and lacked maintenance, and the prosperity of the past was no longer visible. The doors and windows faded, and the shop signs were blurred, revealing the traces of time.

The bicycles displayed in the store were displayed in a mess, obviously lacking in organization. A pile of old models that had lost their fashion trend were piled on the shelves, and it seemed that no one had ever asked for them.

What was even more striking was that there were no customers in the store, and the empty business hall had only a quiet atmosphere. The promotional posters hanging on the wall were outdated and worn out.

The lack of customers indicated that the business had been unable to attract customers for a long time. In addition, the store lacked the meticulous management of the manager, and some repair tools were placed in a mess.

Some accessories were even piled directly on the ground. The whole store was filled with a vicissitudes of life, and its impending bankruptcy was obvious.

"My goodness, is there really anyone selling bicycles here?" Xiaozhi blinked. Would there really be customers buying in such a store?

Even Caterpie wouldn't come.

Such a store almost made Xiaogang's squinting eyes open. It felt like the two of them had been asking for so long, and the destination was a store that was almost about to go bankrupt.

‘Since you are here, go in.’ Li Qingfeng felt a little helpless. He really had to take the blame, after all, he was the one who called Xiaozhi here.

Xiaozhi had no choice but to nod when he heard what Li Qingfeng said, and followed Xiaogang in.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw an uncle standing at the front desk.

Xiaozhi walked up and asked, “Uncle, how much is a bicycle?”

The uncle saw a customer and said without raising his head, “A bicycle costs 1 million yuan, no bargaining.”

Xiaozhi, Xiaogang:?

Now they understood why the store was so deserted. Xiaozhi walked up and asked, “How can a bicycle be sold so expensively? Is your frame made of gold or your tires made of gold?”

The master smiled and replied, “Look, where are the bicycles now?This is a bicycle made entirely by hand. You think it's expensive, but I think it's too expensive. "

The two looked at each other and sighed at the same time: "Eh..."

This price is not something they can afford. If it were a little cheaper, they might be able to buy it.

Xiaozhi's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the sneaky Rocket trio, and he asked why he hadn't seen them recently. It turned out that they ran here!

"Hey, what do you want to do? !" Xiaozhi's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by everyone present.

The Rocket trio saw that their plan had failed, and pretended to look for props and shouted: "Huh? Where's my bottle cap? Musashi, Meowth, you two, help me find where the bottle cap is."

"I've known about you three for a long time..." The uncle looked up and glanced at the Rocket trio, and continued:

"You have been here for a while, but it's a pity that I have nothing here, and there is nothing to steal."

"What do you want, those two guys over there? If you want to buy a car, please come back. "

Seeing this, Xiaozhi recalled that there seemed to be a "fish skeleton" bicycle in Evergreen City, and subconsciously said:

"Can you repair the bicycle? There is no time, just give it to me after the Quartz Conference is over."

The scene fell into silence, and finally the uncle muttered to himself: "I don't have much time..."

"Ah? Sorry..." Xiaozhi heard the uncle's words, and before he had time to sigh about the brevity of life, he heard his next sentence:

"Mohaima, I can't fit it anymore! I'm about to move to the Manjin City in the next city to make a lot of money, hahaha!"

"Boy, I see you've been here for so long, give me the bicycle to be repaired. If we are destined to meet, I will give you the bicycle."

The other five people:???

Good guy, this change is fast enough!

Before leaving, Xiaozhi was quite curious and asked: "By the way, uncle, why did you move to Manjin City? "

The uncle said indignantly:

"Needless to say, a lot of people in Kanto now travel by Pokémon, not by bicycles! It's really abominable, I have no choice but to sell bicycles in Johto."

————As for why Team Rocket didn't come to make trouble————

"Musashi, Kojiro, Meowth. The three of you go to Cerulean City and help me rescue someone."

"Yes! Boss Sakaki!"
