Chapter 590 New Year Greetings
After Luo Mu finished what he was supposed to do, he didn't pay much attention to what happened after Papa's family was reunited.
Every family has its own affairs, and there is no need for me to interfere in everything like the aunties and uncles in the neighborhood committee.
But judging from Papa's mental state during classes in the next few days, the result should be good.
A few days later, Dr. Olin and Dr. Futu came to visit.
Gulliver and Miller did not follow them, they must have stayed in the Lighthouse Research Institute.
Luo Mu was actually relieved by this. After all, he still hadn't figured out Zygarde Core's attitude towards paradoxical Pokémon.
The Iron Warrior, which was turned off and stored in the living room, did not attract its attention, and perhaps because the Thunder Drum was integrated too well into the farm environment, the Zygarde Core did not show any special reaction either.
Moreover, most of the time, it maintains a state of eating and sleeping, sleeping in the sun, and then waking up to eat again.
It’s almost catching up with the hibernating moon bears.
Dr. Olin and Dr. Futu came to visit Luo Mu to thank him for taking care of Papa during this period of time. They also helped Luo Mu check the condition of the crystal that Tailebagos had transformed into.
The conclusion is that as the energy continues to increase, Tailebagos may wake up from the state of suspended animation at any time, remove the Tai crystal shell that protects itself, and return to its original appearance.
Luo Mu is quite looking forward to it.
The two doctors also brought another piece of news. After the New Year, the second round of operation of the time machine will be started, and the driving energy will also be produced.
If the finished product comes out by then, they will send the driving energy to Luo Mu as soon as possible.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two doctors said goodbye to Luo Mu and left the farm before the snow fell heavily.
They promised to prepare Pepper's favorite dinner tonight, so Lewon and Miller also clamored for sandwiches.
Ordinary daily life goes on day by day as time goes by.
In the blink of an eye, it is the end of the year and the New Year is just around the corner.
During this nearly one month period, nothing major happened on the farm.
The communication between Kapu Finfin and Padiya Nature is still ongoing, but judging from its aura that is getting stronger day by day and its gradually abundant energy, the day of success should not be far away.
Luo Mu also found the truth and answer to the question about Reggie Ace wandering around the glass greenhouse.
It turned out that it saw some flowers in the glass greenhouse that were inevitably withering with the passage of time.
Reggieice wants to use his own characteristics to freeze them and make them stay at the most beautiful moment.
The idea itself is good, but Luo Mu does not encourage Reggieace to do so. After talking with Reggieace for a long time and telling him the relationship between flowers and the natural cycle, Reggieace gave up.
It would only occasionally come outside the greenhouse, carefully preventing its cold air from affecting the glass, and stare eagerly at the soil where some withered flowers in the greenhouse lay, expecting new flowers to grow out of it.
The thirteen Kentaros also completed their development and growth during this period, and each one was energetic and as strong as an ox.
The Kentaros have terrifying strength hidden under their bodies that have been tempered by wrestling for a month. Once, they even pushed out a giant bronze elephant weighing nearly 650kg that had strayed into the farm.
Seeing that they were too energetic, they were about to turn the pasture area upside down. The two mount goats, the sprout deer, and their mother were almost unable to bear it.
Luo Mu simply made a decision.
——If you want to make some noise, go to the wild.
This does not mean that Luo Mu wants to release them into the wild. To describe it accurately, it should be considered as "letting cattle run free."
The fence gate connecting the pasture area to the wild is opened at a fixed time every day to allow them to run into the wild and consume their physical strength and energy. At the same time, cattle dogs are sent out to follow them to prevent them from getting too excited and running to the wrong place.
At the same time, this cattle dog must be calm and able to control the situation, and not act recklessly with Kentaro and others.
After ruling out the Windy Dog that would most likely act recklessly and the Mahua Dog that would most likely not be able to control the situation, the only answer emerged.
Of course it has to be Houndoom!
Houndoom once led a tribe and had a very ferocious aura. Even the fearless Kentaros were afraid of him.
It couldn't be more appropriate.
However, after Houndoom, Luo Mu actually considered another option.
But the Zygarde Core refused to reach 10% no matter what, so Luo Mu had no choice but to give up.
The only cattle-herding standards that Luo Mu set for Houndoom were "keep the trouble to a minimum", "don't let them attack passers-by" and "go home on time for dinner".
After a few days of implementing this plan, the noise in the ranch area decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, which made Luo Mu feel relieved.
The only thing I'm worried about is whether Kentaro and the others will attract a lot of attention outside.
Apart from the affairs of Kentaro and the others, most of the farm was peaceful.
The Pokemon has become completely familiar with everyone in Thunder Lake. Tapu Finfin occasionally takes it to the Padya Sea. After all, the Pokemon is a marine species. Although nothing will happen if it stays in the freshwater lake because of the Pokémon's own physique, it still needs to go to the ocean often.
When the Pokemon doesn't go to the ocean, Luo Mu takes it to play with the Pokémon on the farm.
We tried all the winter-only activities such as making snowmen and building ice sculptures.
Before we knew it, December had reached its bottom.
December 798, year 12 of the alliance calendar.
Today is the last day of December and the last day of this year.
Early in the morning, Luo Mu and Zhi Huixing began to prepare the items needed for tonight's New Year's Eve.
Because there is no Lunar New Year in the Pokémon world, tonight and tomorrow are the days to celebrate the arrival of the new year for everyone.
Inside the house, Mimikyu, who had changed into red clothes, was hanging upside down on the wall, helping the Crown of Flowers to decorate the living room.
The red pompoms are strung together on red threads and finally tied together for some shaping.
After a while, it turned into a cute smiling face of Pikachu.
Mimikyu has no hostility towards Pikachu for a long time. After all, most of the Mimikyu that are hostile to Pikachu are just love-deprived children who have not received enough love and are jealous of Pikachu receiving love from humans in the sun.
But Mimikyu can proudly pat her red clothes and say that she is loved without any shyness.
Loved by trainers, companions, and everyone on the farm.
Dragonite, Eruption and Blacksmith were carefully sticking the red note written by Luo Mu on the door.
Although there is no custom of pasting couplets here, Luo Mu still wants to follow the tradition he has always followed, which can be regarded as some consolation. Zhi Huixing came to the door with a basket of fresh fruits and vegetables, looking at the upside-down characters, and now he still doesn't understand why Luo Mu wants this word called "Fu" to be upside down.
Zhi Huixing stared at the two unknown totems who were awakened by the noise on the gate and were still confused.
After a while, Luo Mu, who had returned from the mailbox at the farm gate, also returned to the house with a pile of letters that had almost piled up like a small mountain.
King Rape Crown tied a bow on Cosmogu, but after a closer look, he was not very satisfied and asked Luo Mu curiously: "What are these?"
Putting the pile of letters on the slightly messy table, Luo Mu wiped his sweat and replied, "New Year's greetings letters and postcards are basically delivered one or two days in advance. Although we can communicate through mobile phones now, this tradition seems to be preserved."
Looking at this pile of letters, Luo Mu was rarely able to find himself in a dilemma.
How long will it take to open, read and reply to all these letters?
With a sigh, Luo Mu picked up a letter at random and opened it.
There were prism tower patterns on both the envelope and the wax seal, so Luo Mu knew who sent it without even having to think about it.
When I opened the envelope, as expected, it contained a letter written by Hitlon himself.
Luo Mu recognized this slightly delicate font at a glance.
The letter contained some sincere greetings and a brief description of his recent situation.
The development of the Rotom Encyclopedia is going smoothly, and maybe we'll be able to see the finished product of the Rotom Encyclopedia next year.
In this case, things like Rotom Phone and Aerial Rotom may not be far away.
There were several photos attached to the back of the letter, including one of Hitler when he was doing research, and another of their family. They seemed to be living a good life.
After reading the letter, Luo Mu put it away carefully and opened the next one.
This letter is thicker and was sent from Professor Oak in Pallet Town.
Luo Mu took a look and found that it was sent by Professor Oak and Qinglu together. One of the photos was taken at the top of Baiyin Mountain.
In the extreme environment of wind and snow, there is the green of wanton smiles and the red of faint expressions.
It seems that Green is really going to fight Red. I don’t know if the Tokiwa Gym has closed again shortly after it opened.
The four Heavenly Kings, Hanzawa, Terry, Joey Yumi, and Hassaku, the gym leaders, Haidai, Afeng, and Guluxia, the faculty colleagues in the academy, the principal, Clavel, and even Yeci.
Although most people don't see each other often, this does not prevent everyone from sending each other letters to wish each other a happy New Year.
Like Luo Mu’s friends in other alliances, there are Kukui, Adek, Shimi, Mikoli, and even the big star Kalno, whom he only met once.
After a while, the opened letters on Luo Mu's right hand side had almost piled up into a small mountain.
He opened another delicate letter that exuded a faint floral scent.
This letter was sent from the Galar region.
The sender was Lusamine.
When I opened the envelope, the first thing that caught my eye was a group photo.
Lusamine and her Pokémon, Lillie, Gladion and his Umbreon and Lycanroc, Silvermoon without his mask, Morn, and a different-colored Hollowid.
Looking at the photo, a strange look flashed in Luo Mu's eyes, and he couldn't wait to pick up the letter and look at it.
After carefully reading the content several times, Luo Mu let out a breath and a smile appeared on his face.
It seems that things are developing in a good direction just as I expected and hoped.
Lusamine, Gladion, and Liliae arrived in the Galar region about half a month ago.
It took them several days to search for the Frozen Village in the wilds of the Crown Snowfields, and then it took them several more days to search for Morn's residence from the Frozen Village.
During this time, facing the dangerous environment of the Crown Snowfields, it was basically Gladion who commanded his own and Lusamine's Pokémon to take turns fighting.
When they finally found Moon's cabin, as expected, Moon had no impression of them at all.
When Lusamine heard that he really had a daughter as Luo Mu said, she was so shocked that she even fainted.
But as they explored, the truth gradually surfaced.
Liliae was attacked by Xuwuid, but this time the one who saved her was not Satoshi a few years later, but Gladion and Silverbeast who remained vigilant under Luo Mu's instructions.
In order to protect Liliae, Silverbeast broke free from the restraints left by Zaob and stood in front of Xuwuid.
Liliae also recalled her past memories and realized that she was not attacked when she was a child, but was protected by the Silver Companion Beast.
The symptom of being afraid to touch Pokémon was resolved, and the follow-up of the matter can be seen from the group photo.
The photo seemed to have been taken a few days ago and sent to the Padia region on an expedited basis. Calculating the time, the Gladion family is still in Galar, and it will probably take some time before they return to the Alola region.
After putting down the letter from Liliae's family, a smile appeared on Luo Mu's face.
But this smile quickly disappeared because of the next letter.
Looking at the mailing address on the letter, Luo Mu confirmed it again and again with an expressionless face before he completely accepted the reality.
Mailing address: Fradari Institute, Miare City, Kalos Region
Sender: Fradari
The first sentence of the letter: I want you, please join me.
Luo Mu: “.”
I am so scared!
No, how did this guy Vladali find my address?
Luo Mu resisted the urge to hit someone, and in order to avoid any accidents, he read the entire letter.
Most of it was nonsense to recruit him, and some of it was a long speech by Vladali about his own ideals.
After reading it, Luo Mu silently crumpled up the letter and the envelope, threw them into the trash can viciously, and uttered some harsh words.
"One day I'll show up at your doorstep with the White Gundam!"
In addition to letters from friends, colleagues, superiors, and some strange people, several students who were traveling or staying in the Padilla area also sent sincere letters.
Nemo, Shinji, and Shizuka also described the progress of their journey in the letters.
Nemo's challenge to the battle frontier is progressing quickly. Shinji and Shizuka have already collected several badges. Shizuka also captured an Armored Bird as her fourth Pokémon as Luo Mu suggested.
Thanks to Luo Mu's efforts, the number of New Year greetings letters gradually decreased.
It was not until the last letter that the unfamiliar address and sender made Luo Mu fall into deep thought.
"Larousse City in the Hoenn region, Dr. Rondo?"
