Inside a luxury villa.
"Come on, Squirtle! Look here."
The girl with a high ponytail held an empty bottle and called to Squirtle in front of her.
"If you really hit it, there will be a reward."
"Squirtle Squirtle!"
Squirtle patted his chest confidently and then crossed his arms, indicating he was absolutely ready.
"Haha~ Still so confident, Emma, it's so cute."
The girl was overjoyed looking at Squirtle's cute appearance and spoke to Emma, who was recording the video not far away.
"Hmph~ That's right, my little turtle is very smart."
Emma hummed twice, the smile on her face never fading, and she was very proud.
"Hey~ Squirtle, let's begin."
The girl pouted playfully, but couldn't hide the admiration in her words.
But then she gestured to Squirtle with great interest.
Squirtle's face turned serious, and his eyes were fixed on the bottle in the girl's hand.
The girl shook her arm twice and then suddenly tossed the empty bottle.
Whoosh~
A small jet of water shot out instantly, and with a bang, Squirtle's Water Gun knocked the empty bottle into the air.
"Nice!"
Emma waved her fist, so impressive!
"Wow~ It's really accurate."
The girl picked up the empty bottle in surprise and looked at the dent on it, which was where the Water Gun had hit.
"And it's not light."
The girl looked at Squirtle, who was being constantly praised by Emma. At this moment, the little guy had a very humanized happy expression on his face, squinting his eyes and enjoying Emma's touch.
It's almost like a bodyguard...
But what the girl didn't know was that Squirtle had already controlled the impact of the Water Gun very well.
Otherwise, with a soft mineral water bottle like this, Squirtle's full-strength Water Gun could have shot it directly.
And it was just a young Squirtle.
"Hee hee~ When Squirtle grows up, he can still protect me, right Squirtle?"
"Squirtle~"
Seeing Emma's interaction with Squirtle, the girl couldn't help rolling her eyes, but she was really envious, oh my gosh!
"Hey~ Emma, did you really buy the Squirtle at the pet store I recommended to you?"
The girl walked to Emma's side, pinched Squirtle's little face, and asked Emma.
"Yes, it's completely different from what you said. It seems they have reopened."
"Is there a Squirtle there?"
As if she had guessed that the girl would ask this, Emma shook her head.
"I don't know either. Speaking of that, the store is a bit special. When he sells pets, you have to draw them yourself. As for what you can get, I don't know."
Emma lightly touched her delicate chin and recalled.
"But there are really many. I don't know if there are so many different pets in that store."
Emma handed an energy cube to Squirtle, curious.
Because although it is not clear due to the dark shadow, there are still general outlines, and in those shadows, there is even the outline of a Western fantasy dragon.
Could there really be dragons?
Emma looked at the happy Squirtle holding the energy cube in his hand, emmm...
Probably not?
"Random? Emma, come take a look with me."
The girl's clear big eyes were sparkling, and her heart became more and more interested.
"Alright." Emma nodded.
...
Pokémon House pet shop.
"Boss, can't you sell it cheaper?"
Jason hugged Vulpix and refused to let go, but his face was extremely conflicted.
He liked this little fox with six tails, but...
"Your $180,000 is too expensive for me, boss, I'm still a student."
"Guest, please understand, this is a unique little Vulpix fox. Go out and see, where else can you find such a pet?"
Alex said helplessly, knowing it wasn't that easy...
"Otherwise, if you buy this Vulpix, how about I give you an extra box of energy cubes?"
"Energy cubes allow Vulpix to grow better, and it takes less time to evolve into Ninetales."
Alex thought about it and said to Jason; it is absolutely impossible to reduce the price.
He still wants to complete the $100 million turnover as soon as possible and upgrade the system.
"Then... just wait a moment for me."
Seeing Alex's resolute attitude, Jason couldn't help but feel more conflicted.
But looking down at Vulpix, who was licking his little paws, Jason still gritted his teeth.
Darn it!
This is fate that brought me to Vulpix! Today he must take this little fox home.
"Yes, trust me sir, your Vulpix is definitely worth the price." Alex smiled and reassured Jason.
He was afraid that customers would be scared off by this price, but obviously, Jason was not going to give up.
"If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have spent so much."
Jason was noncommittal. Of course, he understood that this was a six-tailed fox, and it could become a Ninetales fox in the future. Naturally, $180,000 was not expensive.
What he regrets now is that he just spent $50,000 on games...
His family is well-off, and his grades have always been good. His parents gave him enough pocket money, but he basically spent it on games.
"It's still $40,000, maybe I'll ask my cousin."
Sitting on the stool and putting Vulpix on the table, Jason took out his mobile phone and thought about which friend to call for a loan.
As for his parents...
If his parents knew that he spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on a pet, uh...
"Hello? Bro, have you eaten yet? How did you know I was looking for you?"
"Ah yes, it's not about a game... It's like this, I'm now..."
Jason called his cousin and spoke shyly.
Passing a glass of juice to Jason, Alex was going to go out for a cigarette. Today was really lucky. There was a young lady in the morning and a young man in the afternoon.
Well, it seems today is indeed a lucky day.
But before he could go out, the wind chimes on the door rang again.
"Welcome, eh? Miss Emma, it's you again."
Alex hurriedly put the cigarette back in his pocket and smiled at the new guest with his signature smile.
But after seeing Emma, he was quite surprised.
"Hi~ Boss, you are still so handsome."
"Squirtle Squirtle~"
Emma greeted Alex generously, and Squirtle, who was standing at Emma's feet, also greeted Alex twice.
Apparently, this little turtle also remembers Alex.
"Haha~ Miss Emma, don't make fun of me, Squirtle's spirit is still very good."
Alex replied with a smile, bent down, and rubbed Squirtle's smooth little head.
"This is the boss, this is my good friend, she also wants to buy a pet from you, eh?"
Emma said slowly to Alex, but when she introduced her friend, she found that her friend was no longer around.
Emma's eyes darted around the store.
Sure enough, her friend had somehow made her way inside and was now closely staring at Diancie.
"Your friend seems very outgoing."
"Haha...
