[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.

And seeing as Layton left 'by legal means' unspoken, that means Riz can handily ignore the implication. Sometimes you have to live a little.]

[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.
