Chapter 196 - Chapter 196 Bratano Institute

In Lumiose City, at Cynthia's villa.

When Li Wei proposed that he wanted to go to the Kalos region to challenge the Battle Chateau and win a Lucarionite...

Cynthia mentioned that she had a villa in Lumiose City and gave Li Wei the address; the password was, naturally, the same.

Entering '1029' automatically unlocked the door.

Remembering this password, Cynthia's birthday was only three months away...

Li Wei had to prepare her birthday gift in advance.

Although she didn't come to Lumiose City very often, Cynthia still hired people to clean regularly, so Li Wei could move in directly.

Even though Cynthia didn't say he couldn't stay in her master bedroom, Li Wei wasn't that kind of person; he chose to stay in the second bedroom.

The second bedroom was spacious enough, with bright floor-to-ceiling windows that offered a view of the stars in the sky outside.

Li Wei took a picture of the stars outside the window and sent it to Cynthia, adding the message: 'I've moved in.'

Cynthia seemed busy and didn't reply immediately.

Li Wei also posted it in the Breeding Center and Red's battle group chat: "What a beautiful starry sky."

Qinglv: "The starry sky in Lumiose City? It's indeed beautiful."

Li Wei had posted an update as soon as he landed at the airport, so both his family and friends knew he had arrived in Lumiose City.

A Jin: "Did you go to Snorlax Restaurant? I saw the video, and that EliteSiebold, who doesn't do proper work."

Someone had recorded a video of Li Wei and Siebold meeting.

Li Wei quickly replied, "I went. Mr. Siebold's steak was delicious."

A Jin swallowed, "I want to eat it!"

Blue: "The downside is it's expensive. I've seen his menu prices."

Li Wei didn't mind that point.

After all, he didn't pay at all.

Li Wei and Siebold's encounter later turned into a culinary exchange; tasting each other's dishes was enough, no payment was needed.

Siebold was an Elite and a Master Class chef, so it was normal for his dishes to be expensive.

A Jin asked curiously, "Why did you think of going to Snorlax Restaurant? Don't you cook yourself?"

Li Wei: "Even if I can cook, there's no need to always do it myself. I also want to try the delicacies of the Kalos region."

Li Wei had another reason he didn't mention.

He was scouting the Pokemon Restaurant first, understanding the environment, to facilitate opening a Pokemon Restaurant next year.

Steven, Lance, and others had suggested Li Wei open a Pokemon Restaurant. Now that his signature recipes were taking shape,

and he could cook more and more dishes...

Li Wei did have a bit of interest.

After this food festival,

Li Wei gathered his family, Da You, Rui Xi, and other core employees for a meeting...

The meeting content was simple:

Whether or not to open a Pokemon Restaurant.

After an intense discussion, and with the old man's approval, they decided to officially open a Pokemon Restaurant next year.

When Li Wei went to the Kalos region, the Breeding Center had already started construction.

The cafeteria remained unchanged, still serving as the staff canteen.

The Pokemon Restaurant was to be built according to a Pokemon theme, which Li Wei confidently entrusted to his uncle.

With his uncle's professionalism as a designer,

Li Wei had no worries.

This Pokemon Restaurant was also to be built according to the specifications of a Battle Restaurant.

Qinglv then asked, "Is the Battle Chateau itinerary set?"

Li Wei: "It's set. I'm going tomorrow afternoon, and Mr. Siebold will go with me."

Qinglv: "With him going along, it will save a lot of trouble."

Originally, Qinglv had wanted to say that if he needed help, he could assist.

After all, Qinglv also had connections in the Kalos region.

A little later, Cynthia's reply arrived: "What a beautiful starry sky."

...

The next day.

Li Wei, accompanied by Lucario and Shaymin, walked to Professor Sycamore's Lab on the south side street.

Two Dragapult flickered in and out of Li Wei's shadow, curiously observing the towering buildings around them.

Although Lumiose City did not prohibit Pokemon from accompanying trainers, there were requirements regarding Pokemon size.

Lucario was considered medium-sized; if a Pokemon exceeded the regulated Pangoro size, it had to be returned to its Poké Ball.

Strictly speaking, the two Dragapult hiding in Li Wei's shadow was a bit borderline, but still within acceptable limits.

After all, the Dragapult weren't openly wandering around the streets.

As long as the Dragapult didn't attack anyone, generally speaking, it wouldn't cause much trouble.

Plus, with Li Wei's fame, even Officer Jenny would turn a blind eye.

Passing through clusters of steel buildings, Li Wei arrived at Professor Sycamore's Lab, located in the bustling city.

Professor Sycamore's Lab was very conspicuous.

A bowl-shaped steel building was inverted on the ground, its dome made of an aluminum alloy frame and special reinforced glass.

That was the location of the backyard.

Because Professor Sycamore's Lab kept some flying Pokemon in its backyard, firstly to prevent them from flying away, and secondly to prevent attacks from wild Pokemon.

Professor Sycamore's Lab, located in the city center,

also had a backyard, but its area was much smaller compared to the Breeding Center or Professor Oak's backyard.

Li Wei went to the entrance and found the security guard. "Hello, I'm Li Wei, who called yesterday to visit."

The security guard recognized Li Wei, but the necessary procedures still had to be followed. "Please wait a moment."

The security guard communicated via walkie-talkie and quickly let Li Wei and Lucario through.

At this moment, the security guard suddenly smiled shyly, "Um, could I trouble you for an autograph? My daughter really likes you."

Li Wei was gradually getting used to this now.

"Of course, what's your daughter's name?"

The security guard smiled,

"Gemini, her name is Gemini."

"Alright."

Li Wei took the pen and paper and signed a personalized autograph.

"Thank you very much."

Li Wei responded with a smile: "Please also tell Gemini that I appreciate her support very much."

The one who came to greet Li Wei was not a researcher, but an Audino serving as an assistant.

"Beep, Audino, recording Rotom."

"Officer Joy in the Kalos region chooses Audino as their partner, Rotom."

Because Audino can understand a person's state and emotions with the feelers on its ears.

It's like an enhanced stethoscope.

The Rotom Dex could freely choose whether to broadcast Pokemon data from the Dex.

As a Breeder, Li Wei didn't need the Dex to broadcast, at least not most of the time.

"Tabunne~"

(Follow me~)

Following the Audino through the front yard and corridor,

he could see many Pokemon: Sableye, Scizor, Mawile, Pidgeot, the Kanto starters...

"Beep beep, recording, Rotom!"

Rotom flashed everywhere, recording the Pokemon it encountered.

It had to be said, he was indeed a professor who researched Mega Evolution; there were a bunch of Mega-Evolving Pokemon in his backyard.

Soon, Li Wei saw the Garchomp and Dr. Platanus walking towards him.
