When Qin Feng came out of the shower, he found the two people and one Pokémon staring spellbound at a phone screen.
Egg Yolk even cried out while watching, "Pika, Pikachu!"
ヽ(｡✪‿✪｡) ﾉ
After so many years as partners, Qin Feng could tell from that expression alone that the video definitely featured girls!
And pretty girls, at that!
Once he heard the music from the phone, he was pretty much certain.
The request he had made that afternoon at the Pokémon Home had been a little "excessive"!
But for the sake of promoting Pokémon, the two beauties had readily agreed.
What surprised Qin Feng, though, was that despite having been pressured into agreeing...
They hadn't needed a single rehearsal for the dance. They had moved in perfect sync, pulling it off effortlessly.
Qin Feng had found that utterly ridiculous!
So you two were just putting on an act for me, huh?
A video featuring beauties and adorable pets was bound to go viral. That much was obvious.
Qin Feng had also added the Pokémon Home's address and opening hours at the end of the video.
With Bai Xiyue promoting it personally as well, he even believed he could complete the sales and attention missions the next day.
That would bring prices down by forty percent.
But he wondered whether Bai Xiyue and Jiang Xiaoyu would strangle him once they found out.
After all, he had really ripped them off!
He opened the system panel.
[Number of Pokémon Trainers: 3] [Attention: 98324562] [Number of Pokémon Homes: 1] [Sales: 32150000]
Holy shit, isn't that increase in attention a little too insane?
Once Qin Feng got over his surprise, the reason wasn't hard to figure out.
The internet was so developed these days.
It was perfectly normal for the video to be reposted on other platforms.
[Ding!] [Attention mission complete. The system will reduce prices once the sales mission is also complete.] [The host may now select a city in which to open a new Pokémon store.] [Funds required for a Pokémon Home: 95000000 RMB.]
At the system's notifications, Qin Feng let loose a resounding, "Fuck!"
I have to finish the sales mission before prices drop? As a person, you should at least not...
I forgot you're not a person, system, but you really are a bastard, Qin Feng grumbled helplessly.
Opening a Pokémon Home actually required 95,000,000 RMB.
That bolt from the blue shattered Qin Feng's dream of striking it rich.
The 32.15 million he had received earlier was still in his bank account. The system hadn't taken it back.
For a while, that had made him think the money was already his.
Spreading Pokémon while getting rich at the same time-how awesome was that?
He had never expected the system to pull something like this.
Even so, Qin Feng still had to open more stores.
Otherwise, there was no way to make Pokémon widespread.
Just then, Qin Feng's phone rang.
He picked it up and frowned at the screen.
"You have been invited to a group chat."
Then he saw the group name, "Poké-Moms' Home," and nearly coughed up a mouthful of vintage blood.
The member count showed three people.
Jiang Xiaoyu: "I just made this group. We can share feeding tips here from now on, and everyone can see them." ＜(＠￣︶￣＠)＞
Bai Xiyue replied instantly: "Great idea! Xiaoyu, you're a genius!"
Jiang Xiaoyu felt that she had indeed been complimented, but something also seemed off.
Qin Feng thought it was a good idea too, but damn, wasn't that name a little disrespectful...?
Qin Feng: "Ahem, great idea. Um... I have a suggestion I haven't fully thought through..."
Jiang Xiaoyu: "Then wait until you've thought it through. Bedtime!"
Bai Xiyue: "Same!"
The next morning, the moment Qin Feng entered the classroom, a crowd surrounded him.
Ninety percent of them were girls.
"Qin Feng, I heard you can get those things called Pokémon, right? I want that big butterfly."
"Um, Feng, sweetie, if I call you hubby, will you give me one? That marshmallow one would be fine."
That sort of talk quickly spread from person to person!
"Qin Feng, haven't you stayed single all this time because you were waiting for me? If you want me, all it takes is one Pokémon!"
Qin Feng's eyes went round.
For fuck's sake!
You've got to be fucking dreaming. Like hell I'm giving you one.
His gaze shifted to Jiang Xiaoyu in the corner, who was covering her mouth and snickering.
He was utterly baffled!
As one of the video's female leads, Jiang Xiaoyu was receiving treatment that stood in stark contrast to his.
Within a meter of her, there was nothing but desks-not even a fly.
How did that make any sense?
When in doubt, act like a villain!
"Hey, hey, hey! Everyone, listen to me! Listen!"
At Qin Feng's words, everyone instantly fell silent.
Qin Feng raised a hand, pointed at the snickering Jiang Xiaoyu, and said slowly:
"Our classmate Jiang Xiaoyu has plenty of purchasing experience and the means to back it up. Yesterday, she even said she wanted to give a few Pokémon to our classmates!"
The moment he said that, every burning gaze turned toward Jiang Xiaoyu.
Jiang Xiaoyu's smile visibly darkened...
(╯‵□′)╯︵┴─┴
Say whatever the fuck you want, but why drag me into it?
At noon, Qin Feng once again rushed out of the classroom, unable to wait.
His sales had started soaring again over an hour earlier.
And they were still climbing at a rate of 200,000 a minute.
Sure enough, inside the Pokémon Home...
Changpu, dressed in a maid outfit that revealed her slender legs in black stockings, had one hand pressed on the Drawing Machine's button.
Beside her stood a handsome young man who wasn't particularly tall, staring intently at the screen.
The Drawing Machine's screen cycled once more.
A moment later...
"Mr. Tong, you don't want this Psyduck either, right?"
Changpu held both hands in front of her lower abdomen, the same professional smile still on her pretty, charming face.
Unexpectedly, however, the handsome man said nothing this time.
He simply stared fixedly at the Psyduck on the screen, which held its head in both hands and wore a vacant expression.
[Name: Psyduck] [Water-type Pokémon] [Lv: 20] [Evolution experience: 0/100] [Height: 0.8 m] [Weight: 19.6 kg] [Ability: Damp/Cloud Nine] [Hidden Ability: Swift Swim] [Moves: Confusion, Disable.] [Description: Psyduck is a Pokémon with features resembling a platypus. Its body is yellow, and its eyes have very small pupils. It has a flat bill, three stray black hairs on its head, and short, sturdy limbs, making it resemble a kappa. It has a short tail and webbed feet. When its headache reaches a certain intensity, it can use Confusion and Disable. It possesses mysterious hidden powers, but it retains none of that power after using it. In addition, as a Water-type Pokémon, it can learn Water-type moves such as Hydro Pump, as well as Ice-type moves.]
"Since I, Tong Jingcheng, am already wearing height-increasing shoes, how could I possibly take the ordinary path?"
"I choose you!"
"Psyduck!"
