Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 153 Nanhai Phase I Closing Ceremony (1215)

Returning to the campus, Lai immediately saw the tired-looking Merck.

In the past week, since Lai, Lila and Naqi had all gone out to organize graduation assessments, he had completed all the combat classes for the school students by himself. Now that he saw Lai coming back with others, he suddenly had the urge to just throw his hat in the ring and leave.

After meeting, the first thing Rai did was to add more burdens to Merck. He released twenty or thirty wild Pokémon at once, including three Rumblestones, and several teachers patrolled the island. During this period, I met a Pokémon who was willing to come to school as a sparring partner and had good abilities.

In order to ensure their survival, Rai asked Merck to bring an engineering team to tidy up the wasteland to the east of the school for the daily life of wild Pokémon.

Looking at Merck, who looked desperate and was one step closer to death from overwork, Len couldn't help but whispered a few words in his ear.

Suddenly, Merck's fatigue disappeared, and he happily started working with others.

"What did you tell him?"

Naqi, who was standing aside, was a little puzzled.

Lai smiled and explained to her: "I told him that I will give him a resource that can improve the qualifications of fast swimming frogs in a while."

Naqi suddenly realized: "Then you are going to give him the essence of water? Who are you going to buy it from?"

"Xinwu, this kid's family is not as rich as Master Sen, so I just took the opportunity to give him some resources. But this kid is getting close to Youxiang now, and hugging the thigh of the nurturing family, so I shouldn't have to worry too much."

"Ah, speaking of Youxiang, we made a bet before, but I won, what are you going to lose?" Naqi gently nudged Lai with her elbow, and Naqi showed a slightly sly smile.

"Ah, this is difficult to handle. You really guessed it." Lai pretended to look sad. "Otherwise, if I lose myself to you, it can be regarded as paying off the debt directly."

"Bah, it's not official!" Naqi spat, her cheeks turned red, "If you think about it seriously, if I'm not satisfied, the consequences will be very serious!"

After saying that, he turned around and pretended to be angry.

Lai walked forward and put his arm around Naqi's shoulders.

"Okay, then please trouble our teacher Naqi and wait a little longer."

······
In the following three days, the top ten students rested and recuperated at home, and Lai personally flew to Kaina City, hundreds of kilometers away, to buy back the corresponding resources for the students according to the reward list, and prepare for the next day. Then I went to look around the city again. After a busy day, I rushed back overnight.

At the same time, the school placed an order for a large number of tree fruits again, and began to make energy cubes as soon as they were delivered.

In addition to the school, the port of Tianshui Island has become increasingly busy, and the fishing and planting industries have redeveloped. With the combined effect of tax cuts, investment and spontaneous fund-raising, the economy of Tianshui Island has gradually recovered, and then centered on this. , slowly spreading to surrounding areas.

······
On July 7, three months and 29 days after the first class started, the graduation and renaming ceremony of Tianshui Island Trainer School officially came.

Compared with the grand opening ceremony, the graduation ceremony should be relatively low-key in Lai's conception. Only the mayor, Liangguang, Yaxida and some people who have been involved in school affairs were invited. The remaining participants were teachers and students of the school.

But before the ceremony began, a large number of parents and citizens gathered outside the school.

Whether it is the training of students or the recent efforts to eliminate evil forces, Eli, Naqi and Lila have gained a lot of popularity in the town. They are gathered here today. In order to express my blessings to the school that symbolizes revival and hope, I also want to express my gratitude to the founders.

Watching eagerly, the students lined up in groups divided into first and second periods. Those standing in the front row were the top ten seats in the first period.

In a warm atmosphere, Lai presided over the awards ceremony for the outstanding graduates of the top ten students. Starting from No. 10 Yuantai and ending with No. 1 Yuxiang, the students came on stage one by one to receive their awards and have a special meeting with Lai. Go to Kaina City to find someone to make a medal for first-year students with ten seats.

The carefully polished medal with water stone as the main body is engraved with the name of each student in the ten seats and the name of their Pokémon partner, as well as "South China Sea Trainer School Phase [-]" and the corresponding seat.

After the award ceremony, the mayor took the stage and gave a few congratulatory speeches. In front of all the teachers, students and onlookers outside the school, he announced the name change of the school. Immediately afterwards, the decoration team carried out a new gold-plated sign. "Nanhai Trainer School" replaced the original "Tianshui Island Trainer School".

Amid the discussion, Lai once again stood on the makeshift stage and delivered his first and last graduation speech as principal.

“Hello to all guests, teachers, students, and citizens and friends who support the Nanhai Trainer School.

Today is the graduation ceremony for the first batch of students at the Nanhai Trainer School. Before the graduation, I would like to say a few words about the name change.

Presumably many people will be puzzled, why change from Tianshui Island to South China Sea?The reason is simple. After the summer vacation, this school will recruit students for the entire South China Sea region, instead of focusing on Tianshui Island.Our school is to better educate more people, and now is the best time to take a new step.

At the same time, today is also the last time I will communicate with you in this form as the principal. After today's graduation ceremony, I will resign as principal, and our teaching director, Teacher Lila, will take over as the new principal of Nanhai Trainer School. . "

As soon as these words came out, the students except for Issei, Yuxiang and a few others were in an uproar, and the onlookers outside the school also kept talking.

Lila walked onto the stage and stood not far from Len.

Lai waited quietly for the voice to calm down, and then spoke slowly. "I have always believed that encounters and companionship between people are time-sensitive.

When the school first opened, several teachers and I could only make ends meet.

Now, with the school running on the right track, more and more students will enter the school to study, some of the outstanding graduates will stay in the school to teach, and we will also recruit new teachers from all over the world with the greatest sincerity.

So, at this stage, for us, we have reached a new fork in the road.

I believe that in the future, under the leadership of Principal Lila, the school will develop better and better. I also hope that teachers, students, and everyone on Tianshui Island can support Principal Lila just like they supported me in the past.

That’s all I have to say about school running. In addition, I also want to say a few words to the students in the first and second periods.

Schooling, whether it is three months, one year, two years, or five or six years, is just a small stage on the way to study, which neither marks the beginning nor the end.

Our 35 first-term trainees graduated today, but they are still members of the Nanhai Trainer School. I will always view them this way, and I believe most of them will view them this way.

In this case, no matter where we go in the future, our hearts will still be together.

Starting from today or this time next year when you walk out of school, students will welcome their new life. It may not be easy, not happy, and sometimes even painful, but as long as the choice is made by you, you should be calm. Face it.

As a teacher, I don’t care too much about what each student does in the end, because I believe, as we said on the first day:
As long as we stand together, we will always have the ability to make difficulties a thing of the past.

As long as we work together, we can always find a better path than the current one.

We must at least provide an opportunity, an opportunity not to sink slowly in hardship.

On the first day of the establishment of the school, I said this was my reason for running the school. Today, I believe we can prove it with actual results.

Our life is not beautiful, but we have to try to find it.

Just like, no matter how cold the winter is, every life is looking forward to the warm sunshine of spring.

Today, we have taken a crucial step from the initial starting point. I hope we can continue to walk together until we pursue our dreams.

I sincerely hope that every student, and our beautiful Tianshui Island, the Nanhai Islands, and every place that is mired in marginal circumstances, will at least have the opportunity to choose its future.

thank you all! "

After finishing his speech, under the gaze of teachers and students, Lai walked briskly down the podium, walked into the team of teachers, and stood with Naqi.

After taking the microphone from Len, Lila, feeling full of pressure, walked to the front.

“I have to say that Principal Lai’s departure is a difficult problem for me.

It has not been easy for our school to get to where it is today, and there will be many difficulties to overcome in the future. Frankly speaking, I don’t have full confidence.

But now that I have the trust of my teachers and classmates, I am not qualified to throw away my burden. I can only do my best and do my best.

So, as the new head of the school, I would like to share my thoughts with you.

First of all, I will not become the new 'principal'. We will retain this position as Principal Lai's reserved status.

Instead, I will form the school's council with the future teaching, life and students of each class, and I will serve as the school's chairman.

After that, the school's classes will be increased to two-year, three-year and six-year schools. Until all non-normal school enrollments are completed, it will be changed to a model of a six-year school combined with a one-year youth teaching model.

I believe that our school, like our city, will continue on the road of revitalization and development step by step. We also believe that we will become a strong backing for every student.

Starting from the new semester in September, we will welcome new students and teachers, and we hope to receive your full support.

As the chairman of the Nanhai Trainer School, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone in advance, thank you! "

Amid applause and discussion, the first closing ceremony and renaming ceremony of the Nanhai Trainer School came to an end. From this moment on, a new chapter belonging to this school will also begin.

However, in the new story, Lai, who was originally the leader and protagonist, will move from the front to the backstage after the curtain is drawn and the prologue is drawn, and he will become a relatively silent follower facing the new era. with supporters.
