National Research Institute. This is a sacred place in the heart of every Researcher. Countless people are proud to join this place. Within the National Research Institute, positions are generally that of Doctor, which can be said to be the highest echelon of talent in the research field. Every single person within it is an immeasurable asset to the nation.
Inside the conference room, several directors, all over fifty, gathered together. They gathered here today to deliberate whether Kaito (referred to as Lin Feng in the original submission) could become a Doctor.
"This young friend named 'Kaito' is not simple," an old man with a long white beard and a kindly face held a tablet in his hand, reading out information. "At only eighteen, having just finished his college entrance exams, he published a paper on a new Eevee form at this age. Given the current media situation and the industry's view on this paper, it is already sufficient to be rated as a top-tier paper."
He continued: "According to custom, anyone who has published a top-tier paper is qualified for us to deliberate whether to grant them the status of Doctor."
"Although Kaito had no prior involvement in the research field, directly promoting him to Doctor might be a bit against the rules," Su Baiyun (the Director) interjected, stroking his long beard and chuckling. "But I believe that rules are rigid, but people are flexible; we can be adaptable."
Su Baiyun is the director of the National Research Institute and the foremost person in the domestic research field. He loved to see younger generations emerge.
The others exchanged glances; some agreed, while others were still hesitant. Directly elevating someone who didn't even have a formal Researcher identity to a Doctor at the National Research Institute was highly unusual.
Su Baiyun was not surprised by this, instead flipping through the material. "According to Doctor Liu Xuan's evaluation, Kaito is not simply a lucky person; he possesses genuine talent. She believes Kaito is fully qualified to become a Doctor, and I agree with her on this point."
"In the latter half of Kaito's second paper, he mentioned a term: 'Friendship'. He believes that the feelings Pokémon have for humans can be quantified numerically, and that some Pokémon's evolutions might be related to Friendship."
Su Baiyun emphasized: "To be able to propose this idea, I believe he is qualified to join the National Research Institute. This place will provide any experimental conditions he needs. After all, a good horse deserves a good saddle; if such a talent were to be overlooked due to insufficient experimental conditions, that would be a loss to the nation!"
He sighed, his tone turning serious. "I imagine you've all heard some rumors recently, and I have more information. I can tell you explicitly that the world situation is likely to change soon, and various forces will be stirring."
"Whether it's foreign research powers or those dark forces, they are all very willing to accept such folk talents. We cannot, and will not allow this to happen! This has already happened to us once; there can't be a second time!" Su Baiyun's gaze darkened, referencing a past failure.
The others said no more, agreeing while digesting Su Baiyun's weighty words.
Deliberation passed!
"Hahaha, good. That old scoundrel Long Tianlei keeps boasting to me about a top tactical Master who emerged from his ranks, even honored as an Honorary Master," Su Baiyun exclaimed, accidentally pulling out a few hairs while stroking his beard. "My National Research Institute is not bad either; we produced an unprecedented eighteen-year-old doctor in history, who will at least be an Honorary Doctor in the future!"
A Romantic Hint
As Su Baiyun mused, he walked out of the conference room. The first person he saw was Liu Xuan, waiting outside the door.
Noticing Su Baiyun emerge, Liu Xuan quickly stepped forward and eagerly asked: "Grandpa Su, what's the result? Was Kaito recognized as a Doctor? He really is an excellent talent…"
Su Baiyun just smiled and listened, not rushing to speak. He noticed that his young disciple seemed to highly regard and be very interested in Kaito.
"Liu Xuan, you're not that young anymore. Have you considered looking for a boyfriend?" Su Baiyun asked. "If I remember correctly, you've never had a boyfriend since you were little, right? You really need to put some effort into it."
He added suggestively: "Bring a boyfriend back someday for your Grandpa Su to see properly. That Kaito is quite good."
Liu Xuan was a little flustered, not expecting Su Baiyun to suddenly bring up this matter, and even mention Kaito. But speaking of Kaito… Liu Xuan recalled her previous interactions with Kaito; that person was indeed quite attractive to her.
Su Baiyun smiled without speaking. Being old and cunning, he noticed some clues when Liu Xuan didn't immediately refute him.
Kaito has officially achieved Doctor status and introduced the concept of Friendship to the Pokémon research world! How will his new title and the impending changes in the world situation impact his quiet life on the farm?
