You have a solid point. I myself am planning on investigating the ruins for that very same reason. I've heard tell that there may be connections between the Alph Ruins and Arceus. If I am to believe heresay, then I do not believe there is a coincidence in my interest in the site. I am planning to do more research before I go poking my head in somewhere that it does not belong, but I believe my lead is strong.
I would be interested in hearing more of your thoughts on the subject. I would also like to apologize for stepping on any toes.
[Riz had heard a bit about the ruins, but he hadn't actually ever investigated them himself. When he had first arrived here, he had been so focused on getting to Goldenrod and netting himself a job in miss Jane's employ, that he hadn't really thought about those ruins too much. And then there had been the Jenny business and Team Rocket and it had fallen to the wayside.]
Do you want some help investigating those ruins? I've got pretty powerful pokemon if there is something dangerous lurking inside and I aced my trap detection classes.
[Well! That was certainly a change in tune. The Professor is rather surprised, but absolutely not one to turn away any help.]
Yes, I would most certainly appreciate that. I am new here, and therefore am not quite the strongest trainer as you can imagine. While I was quite the prestigious archeologist back home, once again my credentials do not transfer over here, and I have had a hard time convincing the local group to allow me deeper into the caves. If you are indeed serious, perhaps you and I could meet up to discuss our means of attack in regards to gaining further access.
[There is an unspoken, but rather evident "by LEGAL means" in his response.]
[Riz might be quick to annoyance, but his anger rarely lingers.
And seeing as Layton left 'by legal means' unspoken, that means Riz can handily ignore the implication. Sometimes you have to live a little.]
Okay. I'll be bringing someone along if you don't mind. We're travelling together. I'm not sure what kind of experience Mando has with ruins, but he's strong at least?
[You know, in case they need someone to push open a heavy door. Or carry the bags.]

[Layton is not adverse to having a little brawn to make up for all the brain.]
I'm happy to meet you wherever. I myself have been frequenting the library and the cafés in search for the best cup of tea.

Where all the way over in Olivine.
But I can drop you a line when we get there.
