Chapter 673: Greetings
YoYo Day Care was participating in such an event for the first time, and Yuga didn\'t know anyone, so he had to wander around the venue with Misaki and the others.
Most of the participants in this kind of bidding event were various stores, department stores, and workshops. YoYo Day Care was the only Day Care participating.
Unlike other Day Cares, YoYo Day Care had a wide range of products for sale, including Pokéblocks, incense, and held items.
The venue was divided into different areas for the examination of different products. For example, the examination of Pokéblocks took place in the Pokéblock Area, and the examination of incense took place in the Incense Area.
All held items were examined in one area and not separated by type.
The reason for this difference in examination systems was because the time required to make Pokéblocks, incense, and held items varied.
Pokéblocks and incense could be made in a short amount of time and needed the breeders from each store to make them on the spot and undergo examination.
held items, on the other hand, could take quite a long time to make, ranging from a few days to several months. To facilitate examination, all held items were changed to a system where finished products were directly submitted for inspection.
This was why Yuga brought Misaki and the others this time instead of Uncle Kate.
Since the inspection had not yet begun, Yuga took Misaki and the others to roam the venue and gather intelligence.
Each participating group in each area had been assigned a fixed location. Since YoYo Day Care was participating in three categories, they had their own location in each of the three areas.
Once the bidding event started, Yuga and Misaki\'s group would split up.
Misaki would go to the Pokéblock Area for inspection on her own, Lain would go to the Incense Area by herself, and Yuga would take Anya to the held Items Area.
Compared to Misaki and Lain, who needed to make Pokéblocks and incense on-site, Yuga\'s task was much easier.
He only needed to submit the finished Razor Fang products he had brought in advance to the inspection personnel and wait for the results.
Therefore, taking care of Anya\'s needs would fall to him.
Compared to other groups with dozens or even hundreds of people, their small group stood out.
Even if some groups only had one bidding category, they had brought their entire families with them, while YoYo Day Care had participated in three categories but only had four people, one of whom was a child.
However, others would only mutter a few words in their hearts and wouldn\'t say much about it.
Some even recognized Yuga\'s identity, and they definitely didn\'t want to provoke someone like a Gym Leader and Elite Trainer.
All of those present were businessmen who knew whom to provoke and whom to avoid; they were well aware of it.
Compared to that, Yuga\'s status as a Master level Trainer\'s disciple was quite unfamiliar to people.
However, what surprised Yuga was that when he took Lain to the Incense Area, he unexpectedly encountered "acquaintances" there.
Yes, it was the girl who had tried to forcibly take a Gardevoir and her bodyguard, Ando.
Yuga had never expected to encounter them here, nor did he anticipate that they would be from a well-known incense shop. YoYo Day Care had incense, but Yuga himself wasn\'t familiar with the world of incense or who the prominent figures were.
However, observing the enthusiastic attitude of the people around the girl and the group with Ando, it was clear that this was a well-established incense shop; otherwise, there was no need for others to fawn over them.
The group with the girl and Ando was quite large, but the leaders were an elderly man with graying hair and an attractive woman who appeared to be around twenty-five.
Although the girl who had attempted to forcibly take a Gardevoir seemed restless and impatient, a mere stern look from the attractive woman made her fall silent. She sat obediently and appeared quite fearful of the attractive woman.
Yuga spotted Ando and the girl, and naturally, Ando also noticed Yuga.
However, when Ando saw Yuga, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Subsequently, Yuga saw Ando whisper something to the attractive woman\'s ear. The attractive woman blinked slightly and gave Yuga a glance, as if recognizing him.
Then, Yuga noticed the attractive woman whispering something to the elderly man with gray hair, who, in turn, made an apologetic gesture to the people he was conversing with and led his group toward Yuga\'s direction.
Not only did the elderly man approach, but the attractive woman, Ando, and the girl also followed.
However, the girl\'s gaze towards Yuga was anything but friendly; if looks could kill, Yuga would have doubted his survival.
Yet, the fact that the girl and Ando had managed to break free from Officer Jenny so quickly surprised Yuga.
"I never expected to meet Gym Leader Shimizu here. It\'s truly an honor," the elderly man greeted Yuga with a smile as he led the group.
Yuga wasn\'t surprised at all that the others knew his identity.
Clearly, after Ando and the others returned, they had conducted a thorough investigation into his background.
And that was indeed the case.
After Ando was released from the police station, he immediately started looking into Yuga\'s background. When he clashed with Yuga, he knew that Yuga\'s identity was far from ordinary.
And his assumptions were correct.
As the Gym Leader of the League, holding the title of a Senior Trainer, and being an Elite Trainer, these were all Yuga\'s publicly known identities, which were easy to investigate. However, none of these identities were easy to mess with.
Knowing that his Lady had been involved in a conflict with such a person, Ando realized the seriousness of the situation and understood that he couldn\'t bear this responsibility alone. So, he reported the entire incident to his true boss.
The same elderly man standing before Yuga now.
It was precisely because of this that this scene unfolded today, with the elderly man leading a group of people to greet Yuga.
"Hello!" Yuga\'s impression of these people wasn\'t good, so his attitude was quite cold, and he had no intention of socializing with them.
The elderly man didn\'t mind Yuga\'s distant demeanor and continued to smile.
However, the girl beside him, who had clashed with Yuga, didn\'t appreciate his attitude. She opened her mouth as if to scold Yuga, but a stern glance from the attractive woman silenced her.
This surprised Yuga considerably. The arrogant and overbearing girl apparently had someone she feared as well.
