Dawn of Pokémon

Dr. Oki greeted the newcomers and parent groups who had returned from the trip with a smile, and did not mind at all that his institute had become a gathering place for a bunch of idle people - or in fact, he quite liked the excitement, and he often invited people from the town before. The children came to have dinner in the backyard of the institute.

"Xiaomao and the others came back a few days ago. I'm going to call them to tell them to come and get together." The old man looked at his wrinkled white coat, smiled and shook his phone, and at the same time secretly decided that Xiaomao must Change these clothes before coming back to avoid further damage to your ears.

"Excuse me."

Xiaoye nodded to Dr. Omu, watched him return to the back room, and looked back helplessly at the commotion on the other side.

Xiaotian's mother, Tachibana Yuka, is a slightly famous actor.As a girl, she entered the public eye by playing the heroine Fujiwara Hi in the highly acclaimed youth school drama "Scarlet Sky", and she is still active on the big screen today.

Ancient people like Xiaoye who had not watched TV for 800 years had no idea about this, but Xiaojie and Xiaoling obviously knew her.Xiaoling even happily asked for an autograph and immediately said that she would keep it as a family heirloom, which made Xiaotian beside her want to cover her face.

"I didn't expect your mother to be Miss Yuxiang, Xiaotian. Now I die with no regrets." The blond girl held a signed book with little flowers all over her body.Yuka, who thought she had successfully left a good impression on her son's friends, was also covered in flowers and immediately filled half the room's background with pink.

The wife of First Class Investigator Hoshikai Kamaba is the well-known actress Yuka Tachibana. If such news spreads, it will surely shock many people.Thinking of this, Xiaoling laughed out loud, and finally she was willing to change the topic, "Speaking of which, Xiaoye, what kind of people are your parents?" Could it be that they are also some great people like Xiaotian?For example, the long-established waveguide messenger?

When she asked this question, Xiaoling didn't notice the subtle change in the silver-haired boy's expression, and neither did Xiaoye.In fact, half of Xiaoye's thoughts were still on "I don't know if Dr. Ohki will have time to change clothes at the speed of light before Xiaomao comes and get rid of the image of a sloppy old man." Hearing this, he replied smoothly, "Well, I don't know either. .”

She once wrote this question down on her notepad very perfunctorily, although she didn't think she would run into any cliche settings, such as thinking that an orphan in time traveled was actually a lost child of a wealthy family.

"……what?"

When the golden retriever siblings and even Xinghai showed blank expressions, Xiaoye realized that her inappropriate way of answering had caused the air to suddenly become quiet, and she quickly added, "I mean..."

Before he could say a few words, Xiaotian suddenly stood up, causing everyone's doubtful eyes to shift to him.The young man quickly walked to the door and opened it gently——

Someone who was about to throw himself at the door suddenly fell to the ground on the hard floor of the laboratory.

"It hurts, it hurts... Why did you open the door so suddenly, Xiaotian..." The black-haired boy stood up with a grin on his face and complained.

"You will break the door." Xiaotian calmly shook the door twice, and the door shaft immediately squeaked in agreement to express his vulnerability. There were still some scorched marks on the surface that could not be wiped off. It must have been damaged again. Which disobedient Pokémon exploded into this virtue.

"Hahahaha, Xiaozhi, what are you doing?"

"Stupid."

Two young men, a man and a woman, followed them into the research institute, and the girl's brisk laughter immediately filled the not-so-wide space of the living room.

"Long time no see, Xiaotian, and Xiaoye!"

Xiaoye smiled and waved to the visitor.Xiaozhi, Xiaoyun, and Xiaomao—the five new trainers who set out in Zhenxin Town in the year 1000 have finally gathered together.

"Long time no see. You guys came so quickly."

"After all, everyone's home is very close to the institute."

The three new guys pushed and squeezed into the sofa, and Dr. Ohki also walked out of the back room - he was not wearing a white coat after all, but unfortunately the buttons on his shirt were wrong, and it looked like he had put them on in a hurry. .

Such gatherings are not unfamiliar to adults or minors in Zhenxin Town.Although Xiaojie and Xiaoling didn't know anyone else yet, these two golden retrievers were best at getting to know strangers. After introducing themselves, they joined the conversation with ease.

With the help of the golden retriever brothers and sisters, Xiaozhi and Xiaoyun, who were originally responsible for the noise, suddenly tripled the noise level in the whole room, and they almost went to have a drink together.Xiaoye looked at Xinghai and Yuxiang's identical squinted smiles, and then looked at the string of ellipses above Xiaotian's head, and made a calm conclusion: Fortunately, Xiaomao didn't turn on the tit-for-tat mode with Xiaozhi, otherwise this room would be so noisy. Three Pichus.

After the short lunch party, everyone decided to have dinner together in the backyard of Dr. Ohmu's research institute for the first time in a long time.Strictly speaking, the golden retriever brother and sister, who were not really residents of New Town, were also enthusiastically invited - of course, with their personalities, they would join in the fun on their own even if no one was invited.

Before dinner time came, of course everyone could no longer crowd in the research institute and cause trouble for Dr. Omu, and they all went back to their homes.According to Xiaojie and Xiaoling, the house where their father lived in Zhenxin Town when he was a child is still there, and it can be lived in again after cleaning it.

and so……

Xiaoye turned around for the third time, looking at the two golden retrievers following behind her with a question mark on her face.It might have been along the way at first, but now it's in such a remote place that even the Kadi dog doesn't want to deal with it... Their father wouldn't have lived in the outskirts of a town as subtle as his own when he was a child, right?

Thinking about it carefully, Xiaotian seemed to have whispered a few words to the two of them during the chat just now.Xiaotian...shouldn't be a character who can come up with some weird ideas?

Before Xiaoye couldn't help but want to ask something, Xiaoling spoke seriously.

"Xiaoye, think about it. Your house has been covered with dust for half a year, and our house has been covered with dust for more than ten years. We have to clean it anyway. Wouldn't it be better to pool the efforts of the three of us to clean only one room?"

"And I don't really want to see what the dust of more than ten years looks like. It must be scarier than the beauty of Dr. Aperro Canti." Xiaojie also continued seriously.

Xiaoye: "...you actually remember his name???" (stunned)

Xiaoling: "Isn't it Ticon Luoape???" (stunned)

Xiaojie: "...That's enough, that's not the point! And what is Ticonroape? Are you trying to be cute!?"

After struggling to bring back the topic that had turned eight corners, Xiaoye finally understood what Xiaojie and Xiaoling meant - to put it bluntly, they were just too lazy to clean their own house that had accumulated dust for more than ten years.

Xiaoye nodded, expressing her understanding. After all, she didn't really want to look directly at the house that had been on hold for half a year.It might be a good idea to focus on cleaning up, but...

"Well, it's good to save time on cleaning, but my house may be a bit... cramped?" Xiaoye tried to describe what she meant, and after struggling for a long time, she only found a word that couldn't be used.

"Eh? Didn't Xiaoyun just say that your home is very spacious?" Xiaojie blinked in confusion.

Did Xiaoyun say that?Xiaoye tried to recall it, but found that she could only recall a buzzing noise, so she had to give up, "It's not the narrow one with a small area. Well... you will know after you take a look."

They led the two golden retrievers all the way to the outskirts. When Xiaoye opened the door, Xiaojie and Xiaoling both understood the meaning of "narrow" in their jaws.

If you only count the area that can be used by people... it is indeed very narrow.

There was almost nothing in the huge living room, except for a small wooden table and two chairs placed in the corner, which was almost uncomfortably empty.The walls were too white, without any decoration, making the concrete floor look desolate.

"Except for the bed in my bedroom, the other rooms on the second floor are all empty." Xiaoye spread her hands helplessly, "You understand."

Although the room was not small in size, there was an extreme lack of furniture inside. After Xiaoye woke up and took over the house, she did not buy any furniture - after all, she was the only one living there, and she did not need and could not afford more furniture.

"...It's so spectacular, I think I have to take a photo." Xiaoling's tone was astonishing as if she was visiting some historical site, "But it looks like it's easy to clean."

Or maybe there's no room in the world that's better to clean.

"That's right. I think we can finish it in two hours." Xiaojie nodded in agreement.

"Uh, so..."

"No problem, although there is no bed, we do have sleeping bags~" Xiaoling interrupted Xiaoye with a smile and pointed to the spacious and flat living room, which was very suitable for setting up camp.

Night:"……"

Well, you win.

The other party mentioned this, so Xiaoye naturally couldn't refuse - although she still felt that it was very rude to let the guests sleep in sleeping bags in the living room.Do you really hate cleaning that much?

Facing Xiaoye's question, the golden retriever brother and sister nodded with expressions of bitterness and hatred.

"My grandpa is very strict in checking our housekeeping. Even if there is even a little bit of dust on the ground, he has left us psychologically shadowed. He also told us that there can't be garbage in the trash can and we can't put anything on the table... What about the trash can and the table? What's it for?" The blonde girl's ponytails were drooped.

When Xiaoye heard this, she was immediately dumbfounded.After all, Xiaojie and Xiaoling's grandfather, Xia Yang Yuanzheng, was a soldier. He had been a soldier for most of his life, so it was only natural that he would be reflexively strict with internal affairs.

"Did I also tell you that you can't hang clothes on the hangers and don't let people lie on the bed?" Xiaoye joked with a smile.

"Oh, that's right! How did you know?"

"...I just said it casually. Is this really the case?"

"Of course it's true! Now can you understand our hatred of internal affairs?"

"Well, I understand."

Xiaoye nodded solemnly and took her two companions who didn't want to work to get the cleaning tools. Questions kept popping up in her mind.

So...where should the clothes be hung, and where should the garbage be thrown?

This may be an age-old mystery.
