Chapter 176: Temporarily Ranked First

Chapter 176: Temporarily Ranked First

After the Outdoor Activity ended, Bai Feng went straight to Professor Oak's Research Institute, while Da Fu secretly left the group, his whereabouts unknown.

When Bai Feng found Professor Oak, he had already started his research. Seeing Bai Feng arrive, he greeted him warmly, "Oh, Bai Feng, you're here. You said you had something to see me about, quickly tell me what it is."

"It's like this..."

So Bai Feng told Professor Oak about his plan to start a Pokémon Storage Service and requested him to be his Guarantor.

"Oh, so that's it. No problem!" Professor Oak said readily. This was the candidate he favored for a grandson-in-law, so he absolutely had to help with this small Favor!

This kid is quite capable. Not only can he produce a large amount of S-Rank Berry, but he can also help Pokémon purify and sort out their internal Energy. Amazing, truly amazing!

The more Professor Oak looked at Bai Feng, the more pleased he was.

"Thank you, Professor!" Bai Feng bowed excitedly to Professor Oak. As long as a heavyweight figure like Professor Oak agreed, it wouldn't be a big Problem even if Others didn't agree.

Look, what a polite child!

Seeing Bai Feng bow to him, Professor Oak's Filter towards Bai Feng thickened another layer.

"Have you found anyone else to be a Guarantor? If not, I can help you find a few people," Professor Oak asked kindly.

"I plan to also invite..."

Bai Feng told Professor Oak his list of potential candidates.

Professor Oak was stunned after listening. "You also know Diantha and Professor Magnolia?"

"Yes," Bai Feng nodded, not understanding why Professor Oak was suddenly so Excited.

"Then you don't happen to know their Apprentice and granddaughter too, do you?" Professor Oak asked again.

Celebrities like Professor Oak, Grandma Maple, and Professor Magnolia are all connected to each other, so they naturally have some understanding of each other's Situation.

"Is the Professor talking about Kalos and Sonia?" Bai Feng asked doubtfully. Is the Professor's train of thought always this jumpy? How did it suddenly involve Kalos and Sonia?

"Right, right, right, I think those are their Names. You really do know them?"

Professor Oak's heart immediately grew anxious. Could Diantha and Professor Magnolia also be having the same idea? Sure enough, good cabbages are always desired by Others.

No, no! I have to think of a way.

"Bai Feng, I guarantee I'll handle this Matter for you, don't worry.

I heard you also arranged to research Pokémon Massage with Nanami? Then hurry up and go, Time is running out, quickly, quickly."

Saying this, Professor Oak pushed Bai Feng towards the Door.

Proximity is key. No matter what those two old women are planning, as long as Bai Feng and Nanami develop Affection, hehe...

Leaving Professor Oak's place, Bai Feng went to the Room from yesterday. However, Nanami hadn't arrived yet, so Bai Feng first released all his Pokémon and gave them a Healing Treatment.

Halfway through, his Phone suddenly rang.

Bai Feng picked up the Phone and saw it was Sabrina calling. This was their first contact since they separated.

Bai Feng answered the Phone and quickly learned about Marowak's Situation from Sabrina. Marowak had completely recovered and returned to Pokemon Tower with its child, Cubone.

Also, the heroic deeds of Gengar and the others outsmarting Team Rocket were announced throughout the Town by the Lavender Town Police. Therefore, to express their gratitude, the residents unanimously decided to award them the Title of Honorary Resident of Lavender Town.

Because many of the Prayer Masters guarding Pokemon Tower were injured by Team Rocket members and couldn't continue working, the people of Lavender Town specially hired Gengar and the others to guard Pokemon Tower.

Overall, Lavender Town and Pokemon Tower have now returned to Peaceful.

Knowing this, Bai Feng was very relieved. His efforts were not in vain.

After chatting with Sabrina about the Matters in Lavender Town, Bai Feng suddenly thought that he could actually include Sabrina in his Plan too!

Sabrina is also a Genius Trainer, and a rare Esper. More importantly, she is in the Kanto Region, so if Team Rocket takes any action, she can get feedback in Time.

So Bai Feng told Sabrina about the Pokémon Storage Service he was about to open.

Bai Feng originally thought that since he and Sabrina had just met, even if Sabrina was interested, she might need some Time to consider. But unexpectedly, Sabrina agreed immediately, saying she would definitely book this business.

This made Bai Feng extremely Happy. He didn't expect his credibility to be quite high in Sabrina's eyes.

Indeed, handsome guys have infinite charm!

Next, Bai Feng chatted with Sabrina about Team Rocket. Sabrina now intensely dislikes Team Rocket, so she quickly agreed to Bai Feng's Request to keep an eye out for News related to Team Rocket and contact Bai Feng immediately if there were any special events.

Not long after ending the call with Sabrina, Nanami arrived.

"Bai Feng, you came so early!" Nanami said as soon as she entered the Door.

Bai Feng smiled, "I had nothing to do after my Summer Camp Course ended, so I came early."

Nanami nodded, then sat down opposite Bai Feng and placed a stack of Books in front of him.

Bai Feng had noticed the stack of Books Nanami was carrying as soon as she entered the Door, so he asked doubtfully, "These are?"

"These Books were recommended to me by my Teacher when I was learning Massage Knowledge. They're generally not available for sale outside. I'll lend them to you to read."

Bai Feng was overjoyed upon hearing this. "That's great! After exchanging ideas with you yesterday, I realized that my Knowledge in the Aspect of Pokémon Massage is really too shallow. These Books are a huge help!" He said, picking up a Book and flipping through it.

The two exchanged ideas for a long Time before parting ways.

As soon as Nanami returned Home, she saw her Grandpa sneaking over and asking, "How was it?"

"How was what?" Nanami was confused by the question.

"How was your Time with Bai Feng!" Professor Oak said with a helpless expression.

"Grandpa, why are you like this? We just met two days ago!" Guessing her Grandpa's meaning, Nanami's face turned red with anger.

"Two days isn't enough? Back when I met your Grandma, it was only one day, and she couldn't wait to write me a love Letter!" Professor Oak said with a smug face.

"Didn't you pursue Grandma first?" Nanami said speechlessly. "Don't think I don't know anything."

"Nonsense! Did you listen to your Dad's nonsense again? What does he know!" Professor Oak retorted angrily. "I'm Warning you, there are plenty of people eyeing good cabbages. If you're not proactive now, and he gets snatched up by Others, you'll regret it when it's too late."

"I won't regret it!" Nanami said with a pout.

"Sigh~ Why is it so hard to find an excellent grandson-in-law!" Professor Oak sighed, shaking his Head while boiling Instant Noodles, seeing that his granddaughter was impervious to reason.

On the other side, when Bai Feng left Professor Oak's Research Institute, seeing that the Daylight was still early, he started calling the pre-selected Guarantors on his list.

First was Professor Platane. After learning that Bai Feng had already secured Professor Oak's Guarantee, he agreed without a second word to be Bai Feng's Guarantor as well.

Professor Platane and Bai Feng had known each other for several years, had kept in touch, and had always gotten along well, so Bai Feng wasn't surprised that he agreed.

Next was Grandma Maple.

To be honest, Grandma Maple's Personality was a bit eccentric. Bai Feng originally thought she would refuse, but unexpectedly, after listening to Bai Feng, Grandma Maple just left a message saying, "I understand, send me the Guarantee Document later," and hung up the Phone.

Isn't that an agreement?

In reality, if Grandma Maple hadn't been doing it for the sake of Bai Feng sending her a good Apprentice, she would have absolutely refused to be a Guarantor. She had never done such a Thing in her life!

Next was Mr. Blaine. He was Grandpa Fu's Good Friend, and Bai Feng was a close Junior to Grandpa Fu, so he also agreed readily.

After that was Fu La Da Li. Bai Feng was his best Friend, so he had no reason to refuse. This one was also easily settled.

Finally, there was Professor Magnolia. This one didn't surprise Bai Feng; he was refused.

After all, he and Professor Magnolia had only met once and couldn't be said to have a close relationship, so being refused was normal.

Anyway, since he already had so many Guarantors, Bai Feng didn't mind being refused by Professor Magnolia.

After hanging up the Phone with Professor Magnolia, Bai Feng returned to the Dormitory and saw that Da Fu and Student Shen Mu were already asleep, so he unconsciously lightened his Footstep.

Senior Gu Chuan also returned earlier than Bai Feng tonight, but he wasn't asleep. Hearing Bai Feng return, he specifically poked his Head out of the Bed to look.

However, after making eye contact with Bai Feng, he quickly retracted his Head.

With Bai Feng's deterrence, he finally didn't cause any more trouble after returning today.

After washing up, Bai Feng wasn't in a hurry to go to Bed. Instead, he leaned over the desk and started writing the Guarantee Document.

This Thing was not easy to write. Bai Feng had to look up Data while writing, so he kept writing until very late, yawning, before going to Bed.

Time flew by, and a week passed in the blink of an eye. Bai Feng trained his Pokémon in the morning, attended classes during the day, went to exchange Experience with Nanami and give his Pokémon a Healing Treatment in the evening After School, and returned to the Dormitory at night to write the Guarantee Document. His days were incredibly fulfilling.

It took a full seven days, but Bai Feng finally finished writing the Guarantee Document. To avoid mistakes, he even specifically sent it to Fu La Da Li to modify several times.

Only after Fu La Da Li said it was okay did Bai Feng create the Guarantee Document in the form of an Electronic Contract and send it to each Guarantor for signing.

Bai Feng also specifically stated in the Guarantee Document that he would give each Guarantor a Guarantee Fee every year. In short, he wouldn't let the Guarantors bear the Reputation for nothing.

Although everyone became a Guarantor out of Favor, Bai Feng couldn't be so ignorant.

After the Electronic Contract was signed, Bai Feng sent it to Brother Dong Yu.

Signing the Contract wasn't the end of it; it also needed to be sent to the relevant agency for notarization, otherwise, it wouldn't have any League legal validity.

While sending the Contract to Brother Dong Yu, Bai Feng also instructed Brother Dong Yu to help him buy another Mountain, right next to Fangxing Mountain.

Bai Feng was very familiar with the Situation around his three Mountains. He knew the Location of each Mountain clearly, so he specified a Mountain for Brother Dong Yu to buy.

After buying it, Bai Feng asked him to hire a Construction Team to develop that Mountain.

Bai Feng wasn't buying this new Mountain to plant Berry; he was specifically buying it to raise the Pokémon that Others would store with him.

Since people were paying such a high Fee every year, his service had to keep up. Whether it was food or accommodation, he had to ensure it was Top-tier.

What Bai Feng was building on the Mountain this Time was a luxurious Ecological Park. Fu La Da Li also built a giant one of these Ecological Park. His park was as large as an entire Town, housing a large number of rare Pokémon and stray Pokémon. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a Pokémon Protected Area.

Bai Feng didn't have the Money to build one that big, but building a proportionally smaller one should be no Problem.

Bai Feng thought that Fu La Da Li had Experience building this Thing, so he wanted to ask him for some ideas. Unexpectedly, Fu La Da Li directly sent him a set of design Data.

Of course, this design Data was definitely not suitable for direct copying onto the new Mountain Bai Feng bought. Bai Feng still needed to modify the design Data based on the actual Situation on the Mountain, but this greatly saved Bai Feng Time.

Another week passed by the Time the design Data was completely finalized.

After entrusting the construction of the Ecological Garden entirely to Brother Dong Yu, Bai Feng finally had Time to properly enjoy the remaining Time of the Summer Camp.

There were still two weeks left of the Summer Camp.

In the past two weeks, Bai Feng and the others had undergone five Book Knowledge Assessment. Bai Feng got first place three Times, second place once, and third place once.

One first place is 10 Points, one second place is 8 Points, and one third place is 5 Points.

In other words, in the Aspect of Book Knowledge Assessment, Bai Feng accumulated a total of 43 Points.

This excellent Grades made Bai Feng and Hiyoku City Fourth Junior High School famous once again.

Besides the Book Assessment, in the past two weeks, Bai Feng and the others also had two Outdoor Activity competitions.

One was a Fishing Activity. Bai Feng used delicious Berry to make Bait and successfully won the Fishing Competition, earning another 10 Points.

The other was a Riding Competition.

The Riding Pokémon used in this Match were arranged by the Research Institute.

They simultaneously released a large number of Riding Pokémon, allowing Students to choose freely. Whether they could choose an excellent mount depended entirely on the Student's eye and luck.

Bai Feng's luck was very good; he chose a Rapidash that ran incredibly fast.

But unfortunately, he only got eighth place in this Match because he didn't expect that among this group of Students, there were hidden talents. Several Students actually had professional-level riding techniques.

How could he compete with that? No matter how good Bai Feng's mount was, it couldn't outrun theirs.

Furthermore, although Bai Feng's Horse ran fast, its running style was a bit too wild and unrestrained. Bai Feng simply couldn't handle it. If it weren't for the Golden Finger's soothing effect, the Rapidash might have directly thrown him off midway. He was already thankful to get eighth place.

Eighth place was 3 Points.

To summarize, in the past two weeks, Bai Feng obtained a total of 66 Points, temporarily ranking first!

(Bug Catching Competition: 10; Fishing Competition: 10; Riding Competition: 3; Book Knowledge Assessment: 43.)
