(Hello, dear readers, I, Arceus, am back again, and I will continue to update when I have some time recently.)
(Hey, I haven't written for a long time. I don't know if anyone has read it. If you have any questions, please feel free to @Arceus. I will modify it when I see it.)
Here, after participating in the fashion competition, the two Xiaoyun continued their journey.
A few days later, at night.
Just when the two thought they were going to continue camping, a manor-like villa came into view, with several large characters written on it.
"Old Chateau"
So the two of them, Xiaoyun, walked into the brightly lit Old Chateau, with a luxuriously decorated living room. There was a portrait hanging on the stairs. It seemed that they were the owners of the house.
Looking at the empty hall, Xiaoyun shouted, "Hello, is there anyone there?"
"Guys, what's the matter?"
After a while, a man with a thin face and dressed as a butler walked down the aisle of the stairs and asked in a gentle tone.
After Xiaoyun saw someone, he took a step forward and said, "Hello sir, we are trainers passing by. Could you please stay with us for one night?"
"No problem, please come with me."
The housekeeper agreed to Xiaoyun's request without asking, and then invited the two of them upstairs.
Although Xiaoyun was a little strange, he and Dawn followed him.
When walking through the attic, on the painting hanging in the corridor, the eyes of the characters in the painting suddenly flashed a captivating red light, and their eyes also moved accordingly.
Then the housekeeper took Xiaoyun to a room on the second floor. After the two people entered the room, the housekeeper said, "You two, please stay here. The food will be ready in a while. Please wait a moment."
"Thank you, sorry for your trouble."
Then, after Xiaoyun thanked him, the housekeeper closed the door.
However, they did not Frisk. The moment the door closed, a strange smile appeared on the butler's thin face.
"Twenty years later, someone finally came."
inside the room.
"Xiaoyun, it's nice in here, and the bed is so big."
Dawn looked at the luxuriously decorated room and touched Limber's big bed, showing an excited expression. This was her first time staying in such a luxurious room.
But Xiaoyun didn't care about the comfort of the room. He only felt that the butler's attitude was strange.
Yes, it's just strange. Not only did he take them back to their room without asking them too much, but also asked them to prepare meals thoughtfully. This... shouldn't be the attitude toward strangers.
"Xiaoyun, something is wrong here."
At this time, Darkrai's voice also sounded from Xiaoyun's heart.
"Darkrai, have you noticed it too?"
Xiaoyun also uses Telepathy to communicate with Darkrai.
"Anyway, this place gives me a weird feeling. Wait a minute, I need to explore it carefully."
Darkrai said again, then transformed into a black shadow and sneaked into the villa.
After Darkrai left, Xiaoyun continued to observe the inside of the room, then accidentally bumped into the bookshelf and a book fell down
"What is this."
Xiaoyun picked up the fallen book. To be precise, it should be a diary. It looked like it hadn't been opened for many years, and there was a layer of dust on it.
Xiaoyun patted the dust on it and then opened it.
"On March 17, purely by chance, I got the information of Pokémon Rotom, and I started researching it."
"On April 20, after several studies, I discovered that Rotom has the ability to enter and integrate into electrical appliances. It can almost permanently integrate into an electrical appliance. However, if it enters online or wireless mode, it will return to its original form. This Pokémon requires detailed observation and Analytic."
"On May 29, I once again discovered that Rotom has strong compatibility with various electrical appliances. Perhaps Rotom can become the mainstream in the future. With this discovery, they will regard me as a genius researcher..."
"On July 1st, that guy Cyrus actually invited me to join his team to create the world. What an interesting idea..."
"On July 15th, I had already made a decision in my mind. The Rotom plan was put on hold for the time being, but this research must be kept confidential, so I handed Rotom to my housekeeper, and he will keep Rotom for safekeeping."
"Rotom, Cyrus, Team Galactic."
Xiaoyun looked at the text above, feeling shocked. Unexpectedly, someone discovered the function of Rotom decades ago. You must know that the complete information of Rotom was only released in recent years.
Also, this researcher is actually related to Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic. Researcher Ming, this... could it be Team Galactic's doctor, Pluto?
So what exactly is here...
"Excuse me, you two, the food is ready."
While Xiaoyun continued to think, the butler's voice sounded from the door.
Xiaoyun opened the door and saw that it was still the gentle butler. Although he had some doubts in his heart, Xiaoyun had no intention of asking questions for the time being. He and Dawn followed the butler to the hall.
On the dining table in the hall, there is a dazzling array of delicacies from the mountains and seas, including an oversized Boston lobster, grilled salmon that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, juicy and delicious red wine braised beef, as well as tiramisu, apple pie and other desserts.
The rich variety is not inferior to the Seven Stars Restaurant they visited before, which shocked Xiaoyun and Dawn.
"Mr. Butler, we are just staying for one night. This is... too polite."
"Yes, these are so rich and will cost you too much."
"It doesn't matter. We rarely meet people in this manor, so we need to make careful preparations."
Faced with the questions from Xiaoyun, the butler just waved his hand indifferently and said meaningfully.
"Please have a meal, two guests who have come from afar."
After the butler finished speaking, Xiaoyun and the two of them began to sit down after thanking them. Just as they were about to use knives and forks to take the food, they were interrupted by the butler.
"Hey, you two, what are you doing?"
"Um, let's eat something."
Looking at the displeased butler, Xiaoyun thought he had violated some etiquette issues and replied with some uncertainty.
"There is a plate in front of you. According to the rules of the manor, you must finish what is on the plate before eating anything else."
The butler put his hands on top of each other and put his chin on his hands. His tone was a little indifferent, and his eyes were filled with strange fluctuations.
An invisible wave spread from the butler's body.
"Isn't this an empty plate? How could it be..."
At this time Xiaoyun was just about to retort when he suddenly felt dizzy. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the originally empty plate was suddenly filled with delicious food.
This made Xiaoyun rub his eyes, wondering if he had seen it wrong, or if there was food in the first place?
If someone is there at this time, they will find that Xiaoyun and Dawn's eyes are dull at this time, as if they have lost focus.
"Xiaoyun, Dawn, stop!"
Snap!
So Xiaoyun and the two were about to eat the food under the strange expression of the housekeeper, when Darkrai's figure quickly appeared in front of them and broke the plate into pieces.
If you look carefully, there is no food. It's just an empty plate.
Xiaoyun looked at Darkrai with a blank expression, and said, "Darkrai, you dropped all the food. This is very wasteful."
"This is, Hypnosis?"
Just after looking at it, Darkrai turned to Frisk to Xiaoyun. Something was wrong at this time. Then dark energy was gathered, and the palms passed in front of Xiaoyun and Dawn.
"Solution!"
