Chapter 249 Brother Aoki’s philosophy of life
"General, let's order some hot and spicy flamingo Lao Ganma's grilled rice balls." Sitting on the bar seat next to Brother Qingmu, Luo Mu ordered to the chef of Bao Canteen.
When the general lowered his eyes and saw that the person who ordered the food was Luo Mu, his eyes lit up: "Isn't this the trainer who asked Bilibili, the Roentgen cat, to stun Aoki's Muke Eagle? He's here to kick him again today. Aoki’s place?”
Aoki, who was working hard, said feebly: "What happened today is worse than playing in the gym."
The general was startled, glanced at the two people from side to side, and said with an awkward smile: "Hahaha, then you can talk, and I won't get involved."
After saying that, the general turned back to making the food. He always felt that these two people were talking about a very heavy topic, so it was better not to listen.
Putting down the spoon, Qingmu looked at Luo Mu with a calm expression: "You're here."
Luo Mu nodded: "I'm here."
Aoki said again: "You shouldn't have come."
".Why?"
"Because as soon as you come, it means that my overtime work without overtime pay is about to begin."
"."
Luo Mu had an indescribable expression on his face. Ye Ci should not be so dark. He paid the reward readily when entrusting him.
As a mature social person, Aoki, who can simply judge the other person's thoughts based on their expressions, could see what Luo Mu was thinking at a glance, and said lightly: "This is the helplessness of being a member of society. Sometimes you have to satisfy your boss's willfulness. Since If the president doesn’t mention it, then he can only consciously not ask for overtime pay.”
"Life is always full of compromises and helplessness. Only in this way can you be stable in the workplace. I can understand that a child like you who has no pressure in life does not understand these things."
Luo Mu: "."
No, as someone who has received the 996 blessing, I can understand your thoughts, Brother Aoki. We are the most understanding people in the world.
Moreover, the people who got you into this unexpected overtime situation were probably me and Pipa.
Luo Mu, who had completely escaped from the 996 cycle, felt guilty, but he didn't know how to comfort Brother Qingmu, so he could only remain silent for the time being.
Aoki also ate silently, making chewing, chewing, and swallowing sounds from time to time.
When the grilled rice balls ordered by Luo Mu were ready, Aoki also finished eating, wiped his mouth, cleared the table, picked up his briefcase, took out a roll of maps, and entered working mode.
"Luo Mu, just keep eating. In order to ensure efficient search and rescue, let me explain my plan after entering the Padia Crater."
Luo Mu gnawed on the grilled rice balls, his cheeks kept moving, and he just nodded in response.
Aoki said slowly: "The huge pit in the middle of Padia is called the Padia Crater, but it now has an official name - Area Zero. Area Zero has three levels: upper, middle and lower. The lower you go, the more dangerous it is. ”
"During the escort mission a few months ago, I escorted the two doctors and accompanying researchers to the 3rd Observation Station. Now they should be building the 4th Observation Station in the lower area below the 3rd Observation Station."
"The environment in Area Zero is complicated, much more complicated than Jinhui Town. But fortunately, thanks to the activity of explorers in the past, there is now a slightly safer and simpler route."
Aoki used the pen in his hand to draw a line on the map of Area Zero.
"After entering the upper level of Area Zero from the Gate of Area Zero, we walked along this line towards the 1st Observation Station, followed the path left by our predecessors, and went all the way down to the 3rd Observation Station."
"The journey will be long. Be prepared for a protracted war. Have you purchased enough supplies? No, it seems I am overthinking it."
Aoki's eyes fell on the old backpack full of things at Luo Mu's feet, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. It seemed that Luo Mu was well prepared.
Luo Mu, who listened carefully to Aoki's speech, also finished the delicious grilled rice balls at this time. He picked up his backpack and showed Aoki medicine, dry food and other supplies. He used to travel in the wild often, so he had already made the necessary preparations.
"In that case, let's set off after I prepare some things."
Aoki sighed, raised his head, and stared directly at the soft light of the treasure cafeteria, as if lamenting the disappearance of his peaceful life.
I finally managed to finish my overtime work before ten o'clock in the evening.
Aoki's preparation is full of efficiency. He is a person who doesn't know how to fish. No matter what he does, he must do it well. According to Aoki, this is the necessary self-cultivation for people in society.
Aoki usually walks to work, and occasionally takes his tropical dragons - Muke Eagle and Warrior Eagle to carry adults when traveling far away, which is still a bit difficult.
As for how Kukui once crossed the sea on the Warrior Eagle, Luo Mu could only say that the Super Alola man could hang on the Warrior Eagle's talon with one hand, but his body was exhausted due to overtime work, and he was so weak that he looked like Aoki, who can appear to die suddenly at any time, cannot do such a thing.
Looking at the steep cliff not far away, Luo Mu, who was riding on the back of Kuailong, turned to look at Qingmu, who was riding on the tropical dragon next to him, and asked curiously: "Do we have to go to the zero zone gate? Let Kuailong and Wouldn’t it be more efficient for Tropical Dragon to increase its flight altitude and enter Area Zero from above?”
Aoki shook his head: "That's not possible. The clouds and fog covering the top of the giant pit seem to have some kind of disorienting effect on people and Pokémon. Very few flying Pokémon can break through there, and more are still lost. He reached the point of exhaustion and fell into the pit to pieces."
"Only if the zero area gate is at a height that allows safe entry into the zero area, going there is the most prudent decision."
Luo Mu nodded thoughtfully. These were all knowledge that did not appear in the game. If he were more arrogant, he might just break in from high altitude and encounter a crisis.
The experience accumulated by previous people is really useful.
Brother Aoki does know the Padia Pit and Area Zero very well. He is not only the general gym leader of Jinhui Town, but also the Four Heavenly Kings of the Padia Alliance.
One of the reasons why Luo Mu Xiangyici arranged for Aoki to serve as the gym leader in Jinhui Town was probably to keep an eye on the environment inside the Padia Pit and to have reliable combat forces guard it.
Under Aoki's guidance, the two quickly arrived near the gate of Zone Zero. Aoki did not take back the tropical dragon, but signaled Luo Mu and Kuailong to follow him.
After passing through a slightly dark tunnel, the two came to a building full of old-fashioned feeling.
The building is built on the mountainside, and alliance employees come and go from time to time. Their expressions are very nervous, and they seem to be affected by the disconnection below.
Aoki skipped these employees and took Luo Mu into the brightly lit building. From time to time, employees would say hello to Aoki, and Aoki responded politely.
This is also the calmness and emotional intelligence of people in society.
