Chapter 570: Photos and Zhihuixing's Juice

Luo Mu had never seen Lusamine look so vulnerable.

No, he had just met Lusamine for the first time this morning, so no matter how he thought about it, it was not his turn to say this.

All in all, as an internationally famous business queen, Lusamine's ability to show such an expression regardless of the presence of outsiders is enough to prove the position of her husband in her heart.

Even Bi Ke, who was guarding outside the door, noticed the movement inside and rushed into the house.

But she found that Lusamine was too excited and got too close to Luo Mu, and her face turned red instantly.

Subconsciously covering his eyes, he observed through the gaps between his fingers and explained in panic, "I, I didn't see anything!"

Luo Mu & Lusamine: "."

"Is she always like this?" After looking at Piccolo speechlessly, Luo Mu asked Lusamine.

"No, at least I think most of the time, Pico is quite reliable—"

Lusamine, who had calmed down a little, stood up with the help of Luo Mu and straightened her appearance.

Then, she apologized to Luo Mu: "I'm sorry, I couldn't help but lose my composure when I heard about something related to Mo En."

"It's okay, let's sit down and talk slowly."

Luo Mu nodded slightly and didn't care about it.

Bi Ke, who was standing by, also realized that she seemed to have misunderstood something, and tried to quickly run out of the reception room and act like an ostrich.

But Lusamine called her at this moment.

"Bi Ke, come and listen too."

Luo Mu sat alone on one side, while Pico and Lusamine sat on the other.

After Lusamine explained a little, Pico understood why she was so excited just now.

Not to mention Lusamine, even Pico herself was excited!

"Do you really know Dr. Moon!?" Pico confirmed again and again.

"Yes, I know you."

Luo Mu nodded slightly and immediately took out a photo album from his backpack.

On the way, he considered that it would be too much to go to see Lusamine with just a single photo.

Anyway, I brought the photo album with me, so it’s good to try to fill in the gaps.

As Luo Mu opened the photo album, Pico and Lusamine immediately focused their attention on it.

Most of the photos in the album are photos that Luo Mu took of the Pokémon on the farm, including those of them evolving, daily life, and the family portrait taken by Shali.

But this is not the point.

"This is a photo of me and Mr. Moon."

After turning to a certain page, Luo Mu placed the open photo album in front of Lusamine and Pico.

"Moen——"

Looking at the photo album, Moen looked more haggard, or older than he remembered.

Lusamine, whose eyes were red without her realizing it, was sure that the man in the photo was Moon!

Although she didn't recognize some of the Pokémon in the photo, it was easy to tell from Luo Mu's almost unchanged appearance that the photo was taken with Moon in the past one or two years!
"It's really Dr. Moon!"

Bi Ke was also very excited, and had even begun to guess where Moon was based on the background of the photo.

There is thick snow piled up. Could it be near Mount Lanakila on Ula'ula Island?

Dr. Moon actually settled there?

"Chairman Lusamine, I will take my men to search for Dr. Moon near Mount Lanakila!"

Bi Ke couldn't sit still any longer. She stood up excitedly and planned to set off immediately.

Just as Lusamine was about to say something, Luo Mu said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't finished talking yet."

Pico could only sit down obediently, and just like Lusamine, she stared at Luo Mu without blinking.

Luo Mu adjusted his sitting position uncomfortably, and then said, "About a few months ago, I was in the Crown Snowfield in the Galar region. Well, I guess it could be considered a trip. I stayed in a place called Frozen Village."

"Does Dr. Moon live in that frozen village?"

After Luo Mu finished speaking, Bi Ke asked.

Luo Mu shook his head. "He doesn't live there. He lives in a surrounding area farther away from Dongning Village. He lives alone away from the village."

“Live alone.”

Lusamine chewed on these words silently, her face becoming paler and paler.

She couldn't figure it out.

Since nothing happened to Morn, why didn't he come back to find me and see Gladion and Lillie in all these years since Lillie lost her memory?

And Luo Mu's next words made her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar.

"No, let me correct you. Moen doesn't live alone. He has a daughter, but I didn't see her that day."

"Daughter?"

As if she had received a huge shock, Lusamine's face turned pale as paper, and her whole body began to tremble slightly. She almost fainted from grief.

Fortunately, the truth was not revealed in front of her after all, so she didn't faint because she was shocked and couldn't accept the reality like in the animation.

"How come, Dr. Moon?"

Pico also looked incredulous.

From what she knew, Professor Moon and Chairman Lusamine were the most loving couple in the entire Alola, and their relationship was indestructible.

How could the other party betray the chairman and remarry and have children?
Luo Mu had no interest in being a riddle teller, so he immediately threw out the rest of the information.

"Come to think of it, I remember that daughter Moen mentioned that her name was Liliae."

"But something is wrong. From the room where his daughter was hiding, my partner detected the same aura as the Ultimate Hole."

Luo Mu frowned and told the details he "knew".

Just like the umbrella-shaped hat with the white and yellow brim he saw when he looked at Dongning Village from afar.

And the villagers of Frozen Village have never seen Morn's "daughter" Liliae.

There was also the aura of the Ultimate Hole that the Lotus Crown Queen sensed.

Soon after, with the help of Pico, Lusamine's pale complexion improved a little.

Because of Luo Mu's reminder, she also realized some problems.

Let's not talk about how Luo Mu's partner clearly understood the breath of the Ultimate Cave. But the Morn mentioned by Luo Mu was indeed a little strange, but what exactly was strange about it, I'm afraid I can only know it after meeting him in person.

Lusamine is indeed a business woman who can expand the scale of the Ether Foundation on her own.

She was thoughtful and did not indulge in self-consumption, but planned to go to the Crown Snowfield to find out what was going on.

Whether it was talking things out with Moon or finding out the truth, Lusamine was already satisfied enough as she finally had a clue about him.

Amid her numerous thanks, Luo Mu, who had finally finished the pile of tasks on hand, breathed a sigh of relief and said that it was almost time for him to go back.

When leaving, Luo Mu also enthusiastically reminded Lusamine.

"The Crown Snowfield is a dangerous environment. Occasionally, an Ultra Cave similar to the one in Alola will open, and creatures called Ultra Beasts will appear."

"If you want to go, try to bring the Pokémon you have trained with you, or at least bring a bodyguard with you."

After leaving these words, Luo Mu no longer cared what Lusamine was thinking. He was taken by Pico to leave Lusamine's private residence, and rode directly on Dragonite and flew away from the Aether Paradise.

He thought that since he had given such hints to this extent, the clever Lusamine should have realized something and would at least go to the Crown Snowfield with sufficient preparation.

In the anime, Lusamine's team is of good quality.

Pixie, Flame Queen, Milotic, Miss Skirt, Dream Demon, Absol, Hayok.

Besides, this is enough to protect Lusamine's safety while she is "seeking the truth".

Whether or not "Lillie" can be kept at that time depends on the efforts of Lusamine and Moon.

As for whether Gladion and Liliae will be taken to the Crown Snow Fields by Lusamine, Luo Mu personally tends to think not.

She had already warned the other party of the danger, and Lusamine was not the kind of mother who would put her child in danger. Gladion was fine, but considering Liliae's current condition, Lusamine would most likely not agree.

Moreover, at this stage, Lusamine had not yet experienced the incident of being parasitized by the Void, so she was more or less independent with her children. There was a high probability that she thought her "little baby" Liliae should not get involved in danger.

Lusamine still has a huge Ether Foundation to manage. Seeing how busy she is at work, even if she is very anxious, she probably won't be able to set off for a while.

Then I can just whisper a few words to Gladion.

Luo Mu left in a cool manner.

But Lusamine and Pico couldn't remain calm at all.

Not only did she have to arrange the trip to Crown Snowfield, but she also had many other things to deal with.

Tonight, I am destined to have no sleep.

It was already after five in the afternoon when Luo Mu left the Ether Paradise.

He was also delayed on the way to buy some Pony Island radishes at the market.

By the time he returned to his villa on Akala Island, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.

Looking at the soft outline of the villa very close to the beach, Luo Mu, who had experienced a lot in just one day, felt as if he was in another world.

Kuailong had the same feeling as him and couldn't help but sit on the rattan swing chair outside the house, enjoying the night sea breeze and relaxing his body and mind.

As luck would have it, they happened to run into the Eevee sisters, Ursa Major, and Ponyta who were also returning to the villa.

But their appearance made Luo Mu somewhat surprised.

The smooth hair of the Eevee sisters looked dirty at this time, and there were knots in many places, especially on the silver-gray hair of the younger sister Eevee, the traces of dirt were very clear.

The raincoat of Erguilang was in a similar condition to theirs, only Lingyouma was slightly better, but not much better.

What did they do in the forest today—?
A huge question arose in Luo Mu's mind.

Before he could think further, as if sensing their presence, Zhihuixing walked out of the house in an apron. In the warm yellow light behind him, the figure of Gladion, who was busy serving dishes, could be vaguely seen.

"Welcome back, everyone take a shower before dinner."

Zhihuixing showed a kind smile, which made Luo Mu and the Pokémon, who were exhausted in various senses, also smile.

That’s right, no matter what happened, it’s the same thing when you talk about it at the dinner table after taking a shower.

After all, everyone returned safely.

Even though he had been purified by purified water, it was only after a relaxing hot bath that Luo Mu felt that he was finally clean.

This is the dual satisfaction of psychology and ritual.

When he arrived in the living room, he saw Gladion glaring at Tapu Fin-Fin as expected.

Even though Luo Mu had already introduced to everyone the Tapu Finfin and the Ball Sea Lions who would live on the farm in the future.

Compared to the other Pokémon who were used to it and were happy to have two new companions, Gladion's worldview was shaky.

Mr. Luo Mu just went out for a trip, how come he brought back an island guardian? ?

From what he said, Kapu Finfin is not just here as a guest, but also plans to settle down in Padya!

What about Poni Island?
Gladion obviously didn't recognize the color problem of Tapu Fin-Fin, and Luo Mu planned to find an opportunity later to slowly explain to him the difference between the two.

Looking around the living room, the Eevee sisters, who had been bathed and smelled delicious before Luo Mu, were excitedly lying beside the Roentgen cat, seemingly listening to what it was telling them.

Eruption's eyes were full of stars, and he was quite looking forward to what Swampert described.

Seeing that Luo Mu had also finished washing, Zhi Huixing walked out of the restaurant and shouted through telepathy with a smile on his face: "Dinner is ready!"

Today, he spent a whole day researching recipes with Gladion, and the masterpiece he serves will definitely surprise everyone!

Looking at the steaming meals, the inexperienced sea lion began to flap his front legs excitedly, but was soon taken aside by Tapu Finfin, whom Barnett had reminded him of.

——Given the current physical condition of the sea lion, it can only eat some nutritional supplements or Moo Moo milk, so let’s forget about these meals.

Except for the Pokemon, each Pokémon had a dinner of its own. Even though Tapu Fin-Fin's arrival was beyond the expectations of the Pokémon, it always prepared a few extra portions of food, so it was not a big problem.

At the dining table, next to Gladion who was eating in silence, Luo Mu looked around, wanting to ask the Eevee sisters, Eruption, or Ponyta what they had done in the forest today.

At this time, Zhi Huixing used his telekinesis to come over with a pot of liquid that looked like a drink.

Like a magic trick, a dozen paper cups fell in front of Luo Mu and the Pokémon one after another under the control of telekinesis, and the liquid in the pot immediately filled them up.

"Yeah, Jutta."

Zhi Huixing proudly introduced the "world's best-tasting pear juice" that he had finally developed after spending several months.

It is very confident that this glass of juice can even capture the island guardian like Tapu Finfin!

But the words that Erguiyan said inadvertently after tasting the phoenix pear juice while shaking his little feet made Zhihuixing feel like he was struck by lightning and he stood there in a daze.

"Bonnie Bonnie!"

It tastes exactly the same as the drink made by another wise gorilla in the forest!

In an instant, even someone as slow-witted as Gladion was almost choked by the sudden momentum that swept through the restaurant.
