Chapter 37

After taking a hot shower, Su Yu plugged in his phone and the depleted power bank to charge.

If the power bank Su Yu carried hadn't been large enough, he likely wouldn't have lasted these many days.

After washing himself, Su Yu also gave the Combusken and the Shinx a bath.

Lying on the bed, Su Yu began to take stock of today's gains.

A Water Stone, a Leaf Stone, Leftovers, a Soothe Bell, and the Fire Stone he had snatched.

And the Dragon Fang that had already been consumed by Bagon!

It could be said that this expedition's haul was overflowing.

Su Yu planned to give the Leftovers to the Combusken, so he had no intention of selling it.

The Soothe Bell could be used for the Ice Ninetales that would be born soon.

It would increase the affection between them.

Therefore, it could not be sold either.

Thus, the items available for sale were the three evolution stones: the Water Stone, the Leaf Stone, and the Fire Stone.

Su Yu checked the prices of these three stone items at the Pokémon Item Trading Center.

Because Fire Stones were relatively difficult to form, their price was the highest.

It was close to two million.

Meanwhile, both Water Stones and Leaf Stones were around 1.2 million.

In other words, Su Yu's haul from this trip amounted to roughly 4.5 million!

"No wonder so many people enjoy diving into dungeons; if luck strikes, the rewards are truly immense!"

Su Yu sighed inwardly. "It would be great if every trip yielded such high returns, but that's just wishful thinking."

He felt that this entire operation had simply been blessed by heaven.

Not only had it allowed him to steal from the homes of a Heracross and a Pinsir while they were fighting,

but he had also snatched a Fire Stone from bandits.

Su Yu did not believe such luck would happen again next time.

Therefore, the money from the sales still needed to be spent frugally.

049: Selling Evolution Stones, Encountering Yan Ruyue by Chance!

"For now, the most important thing is to sell the evolution stones in hand as soon as possible."

Su Yu directly registered a seller account at the Pokémon Item Trading Center.

After taking photos of the three evolution stones, he uploaded them to the product information.

At the same time, Su Yu added a note stating that only local transactions were supported.

Naturally, the city selected was the one where Su Yu's home was located.

If he had set it to Ankou City, where Su Yu was unfamiliar with both the people and the terrain, conducting the transaction would have been difficult.

Setting the Fire Stone at 2.1 million and both the Water Stone and Leaf Stone at 1.1 million, Su Yu left it at that.

It was rare to no longer lie on hard ground but instead sleep on a soft, large bed.

Su Yu naturally wanted to enjoy it a little longer.

"Char-mo~" "Meow~"

At this moment, the Combusken and the Shinx, lying on the bed together with Su Yu, also displayed expressions of enjoyment.

After so many days of battling, the two Pokémon must have been exhausted.

Therefore, Su Yu naturally wanted to let them rest a bit more.

Thus, after resting at the inn for a whole morning, Su Yu finally departed from Ankou City.

Ankou City was not far from Yunhai City; taking the high-speed rail, one could arrive within an hour.

Only after boarding the high-speed train did Su Yu remember that he had listed three evolution stones on the Pokémon Item Trading Center earlier.

He wondered if anyone had shown interest.

Curious, Su Yu opened his phone.

Then, he discovered that he had received private messages from a crowd of people.

(LoveJynxMost): Hello seller, can you sell the Fire Stone for two million? Could you offer a slight discount?

(IWannaBeGardevoir'sDog): Hello seller, I want to buy that Water Stone of yours; where is your transaction location? Is it convenient to meet?

(MomMachampIsBest): Dear, are you selling the Leaf Stone? Could you make it a bit cheaper?

(PillarOfTheNation): Hello, I'm a student; can you give it to me for free with 50 shipping included?

(QingQingKissKiss): Hello handsome, I don't have money; can I pay in other ways? We can add QQ for private chat.

Among them were not only buyers making inquiries but also some scammers.

(INotAScammer): Hello, can we add QQ for private chat? I can offer 2.2 million!

(SincereTradeHonestBusiness): Sent you a link: hppts//XXXXXX (Note: The Pokémon Trading Center reminds you that this link may be fraudulent information; please do not click any off-site links.)

Looking at the dense array of messages on his phone, Su Yu felt his head swelling.

He hadn't expected that shortly after listing the items, so many people would message him privately.

After reading through them one by one, he negotiated with three who appeared to be genuine buyers.

(ASeller) replied to (IWannaBeGardevoir'sDog): Hello, the transaction location is at the Magikarp Restaurant on XX Street in Yunhai City.

(IWannaBeGardevoir'sDog) replied to (ASeller): Alright, can we confirm the transaction time? Are you free this afternoon?

(ASeller): Of course I'm free; let's say three o'clock this afternoon.

(IWannaBeGardevoir'sDog): Okay.

……

Having settled on the three sellers for the evolution stones, Su Yu waited patiently on the subway.

Soon, the subway reached the station; Su Yu hoisted his backpack and hurried home.

At this moment, downstairs in the residential compound.

Yan Ruyue was walking side by side with a girl of delicate and captivating features, a smile playing on her face.

As they walked, the two chatted and laughed together.

"Ruyue, why hasn't your little boyfriend Su Yu come to see you recently? Even though it's the holidays, shouldn't he visit his girlfriend at school?"

"Could it be that he has found a new love and abandoned you?"

Hearing her friend's words, Yan Ruyue's pretty face flushed red.

"Gu Ying, what are you talking about? Su Yu has just been traveling recently!"

"Besides, he isn't my boyfriend yet. Don't speak nonsense."

"Tsk, tsk." Hearing Yan Ruyue's defense, Gu Ying's face displayed an expression of disdain.

"Just ask our class; who doesn't know that your eyes are always on Su Yu?"

"Ever since Su Yu stopped coming to school recently, you've been listless in class every day, yet you still claim he isn't your boyfriend."

"Yan Ruyue, you can deceive your sisters, but don't deceive yourself."

"It doesn't matter if you deceive your sisters; we can just laugh it off."

"I really haven't deceived you," Yan Ruyue said somewhat helplessly. "We don't have any relationship right now. We can only be considered good friends."

Hearing this, and after observing Yan Ruyue's expression again, Gu Ying finally believed this explanation.

Gu Ying spoke with an air of disbelief.

"I never expected you two still haven't become a couple? We've been shipping you as a pair at our school for half a year already."

"Then Ruyue, you should make your move quickly. You must know that handsome boys with bright futures like Su Yu are rare."

Yan Ruyue shook her head. "Neither of us is prepared to date in high school. Let's talk about it after we get to university."

"Moreover, the college entrance exam is not far away; our high school days are about to end."

Hearing this, Gu Ying could only sigh.

"Just don't let someone else beat you to it; you must know that Su Yu is highly sought after."

"I don't know what Su Yu is thinking, having such a beautiful girl beside him yet not pursuing her."

"If I were to see Su Yu, I would definitely punch him!"

Just as she finished speaking, a voice sounded right beside Gu Ying's ear.
