[Pokemon] Sycamore

"I'm here, Dr. Omu, you're looking for me...eh? Aunt Hanako?!"

When Xiaotong and the two came to the place mentioned by Dr. Omu, they saw a familiar figure looking at her with a smile. Who was Xiaozhi's mother?

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Xiaotong. I feel relieved to see you looking so good." From the past to now, she has always helped Xiaotong and her family. Hanako has always treated Xiaotong as her own child. It's so beautiful to see her look so good. Feiyang fought hard in the duel field, Hanako's tone was full of relief.

"Ugh... I didn't expect Aunt Hanako to come? Thank you so much for your hard work." Xiaotong's cheeks turned slightly red. She had always been unable to resist such tender treatment.

But since I saw Aunt Hanako, does that mean... Thinking of a certain possibility, Xiaotong also looked around slightly excitedly, trying to find a certain figure.

"Is Xiaotong looking for Salal?" Seeing Xiaotong's appearance, Hanako knew clearly in her heart, "But I may disappoint you. Salal was feeling a little unwell a few days ago, so she didn't come with us. ..."

"What's wrong with Sister Sal?"

Before Hanako could finish speaking, she was immediately interrupted anxiously by Xiaotong.

"Has the old injury recurred? Is it serious? Have you consulted a doctor..."

"Calm down Xiaotong." At this time, Dr. Ohmu also spoke.

Knowing that the two sisters valued each other, Dr. Oki quickly explained: "It's nothing serious, I just had a sudden headache. After the examination, it was confirmed that it was fine. The doctor also concluded that it may be a precursor to memory recovery."

"That's it...that's good..." Finally feeling relieved, Xiaotong breathed a sigh of relief.

But... the memory is revived, does that mean that the time for Sister Sal to leave Zhenxin Town is coming soon?Thinking of this, Xiaotong's eyes darkened, but she quickly shook her head.

This is a good thing!Isn't it...

"Xiaotong? Xiaotong!"

Just when Xiaotong fell into a trance, a loud shout in her ear suddenly brought her back to reality. She turned around to see Xiaokui looking at her worriedly.

"Ah~ It's okay, I'm just thinking about something. By the way, Xiaokui, let me introduce to you. This is Xiaozhi's mother, Aunt Hanako, who has always taken good care of me. As for Dr. Omu, you have seen her in the video, and I'm afraid... I've been nagging in your ears." At the end of the sentence, Xiaotong couldn't help but reveal the smile on her lips.

Staring at Xiaotong sadly, Xiaokui looked at Dr. Omu with a hint of embarrassment.

"H-Hello, Dr. Oak."

"Oh~ you were that Xiaotong's traveling companion at that time. Not bad~ a good boy, but no matter what~~ I still feel like I've seen you somewhere."

"Ahaha...hahaha...hahaha..." Regarding this, what else can Xiaokui do besides pretending to be stupid? Let them solve the affairs of the older generation by themselves.

"By the way, Xiaotong, do you want to come with us to find Xiaozhi and the others? I'm going to cook a big meal after he finishes the game. How about we come together?" Hanako looked at the time and found Xiaozhi's The game was about to start, so he suggested this.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Hanako. I have an appointment with someone else, so I won't be with you." Ignoring Xiaokui's repeated thoughts automatically, Xiaotong thought that it wouldn't be good to leave Daigo alone like this. Besides, what did he seem to want to say to himself just now?

"Really? It's such a pity. You have to work hard for the next games!" Hanako made a cheering gesture to Xiaotong.

"Xiao Mao lost. Now only you and Xiao Zhi are the hope of our new town. Keep working hard, Xiao Tong." Dr. Omu finally encouraged him. ?

"I know, but I never intend to lose." Xiaotong answered with absolute certainty.

Watching the two of them leave, just as Xiaokui was about to use all her strength to hold Xiaotong back from looking for Daigo, a lazy voice floated over from behind the two of them.

"Yo~ It's you."

"Liz!?" Xiaokui said in surprise.

With a decadent look on his face, his hair was sticking up in disbelief, and he was wearing the same cool dress as before. Isn't the person who came here the same Liz who fought against the Rockets together?

"I can actually meet you here~" Xiaokui is not exaggerating. Like Mu and Archer, they are very clear about Liz's personality. It is really a great thing to see her before the knockout round of the top [-]. Magical things.

"You...no matter what happens, you still have to eat, right?" Liz scratched her head and said helplessly. Sometimes it's not good to be too familiar with each other.

Only then did the two of them realize that Liz was holding a big bag in her hand. What was in it was self-evident from the delicious aroma wafting out.

"No, no, no, I believe that such a 'little thing' doesn't require you to take action personally." Xiaokui waved her hand and complained. It can be seen that in her impression, Liz was already lazy to the point of indignation from both humans and gods.

Hearing Xiaokui's words, Liz suddenly looked at Xiaotong with a sad expression.

"It's not all your friend who caused this..."

"Me?" Xiaotong, who was also shot while lying down, stretched out his index finger and pointed at himself with a puzzled look on his face. Why did he have anything to do with her when he was just buying a meal?

"Because~~I lost the bet." Liz accused Xiaotong feebly.

"Bet? With whom? What bet?" Xiaokui asked curiously after hearing this, but the answer had already emerged in her mind.

"Besides that guy Mu and that fighting maniac A Che, who else can we have? As for what the bet is..." Liz's half-closed eyelids slowly raised upwards, revealing a pair of unique and profound eyes. eye.

Deeply locked on Xiaotong.

"Of course, it's a bet on which of us the next opponent next to you will be~"

I didn't expect that I would be so valued by them. Thinking of this, Xiaotong couldn't help but smile, and at the same time looked at them without flinching, and then slowly said: "Oh? So what's the result of your bet?"

"Let me guess, you are definitely not putting pressure on yourself, right? After all, trouble can be avoided for you, and with Ah Che's temperament, you don't have to think that it is definitely putting pressure on yourself. That guy is my first friend. You just wanted to have a fight with me when we met, and you are the only one here because you lost the bet, so we can make a preliminary inference..." Xiaotong paused, and then chuckled, "I will be the first one after that. It will be Archer who we encounter, right?"

Earlier, Xiaotong, who had completed the first four rounds of preliminaries, quickly went to the drawing venue. Since her game ended very early, she was also one of the first people to decide her battle position.

The number of the Magikarp that Xiaotong caught was B4, which was the fourth and last game of the second group. As for her opponent, she already knew it, and he was a young man who seemed to be quite capable.

In other words, Liz and the others have no doubt that she can enter the top eight, and they are sure that she can advance until she faces them, right...

This confidence is exactly the same as her own, but she likes it.

"Correct answer, I'm telling you there's no interview. That guy Ache is in B3, and I'm in B1. Since Ache's dick isn't here, I'll just tell you."

"I'm looking forward to playing against you." Liz assuredly made the announcement without any scruples.

"I won't invite you to this meal." Shaking the bag in her hand, Liz returned to her lazy look at first. "Let's get together after the game is over. I believe Mu and Ache will happily agree. But it’s still the same, the loser has to treat.”

"If you can defeat me, then you have to face Mu, who is the only one assigned to Group A, but I still have unsettled scores with that guy at the Caiyu Conference the previous year and the Silver Conference even longer ago. As for Qing, I won’t pass up this opportunity.”

"What a coincidence."

The words that Liz happened to finish were seamlessly connected, and Xiaotong continued the unfinished conversation without any pause.

"For my first alliance conference, I will definitely do it to the best of my ability. You have to do your best to snipe me. Besides, I will be really embarrassed to have to spend money on you later."

"thanks for treatment."

Having said this, Xiaotong suddenly exuded a strong aura, which is the invisible power that only a strong person can possess. It surged towards Liz like a violent storm, making the unsuspecting Liz's eyes widen instantly. .

It was like the trembling of being stared at by a man-eating beast, and the prey could only stand stiff, waiting for the judgment of death.

Didn't you expect that you were overestimating it... It was just a small trial that you could see such terrifying hidden things... And these are probably just the tip of the iceberg, Liz smiled bitterly in her heart, But he refused to admit defeat and used his own momentum to resist.

When Liz, who was gradually being suppressed, was about to grit her teeth and fight tenaciously, the terrifying momentum disappeared in an instant. If it weren't for the cold sweat still remaining on her body as a reminder, Liz wouldn't believe that there was something on the corner of her mouth in front of her. The figure with a faint smile would be such a terrifying existence.

Looking at Xiaotong with complicated eyes, Liz didn't say anything more, turned around and left with the food in her hand.

From the beginning to the end, the collision of momentum between the two people was not known to others, leaving Xiaokui on the side looking at it inexplicably.

Let’s not talk about the little episode on Xiaotong’s side. What happened to Xiaozhi was the real near miss. Should we say that the trainers lacked vigilance or were too stupid?If someone asks for a Pokémon ball, he will hand it over easily without confirming it in advance. Who should be blamed if the Pokémon is taken away later?

Fortunately, with the efforts of Xiaozhi and his new friend Hiro, they finally succeeded in snatching everyone's precious balls back, and finally did not cause more trouble.

When Xiaotong knew about this, Xiaozhi and the others had already completed the lottery after returning.

The number that Xiaozhi drew was A3. There was still a long time before her game started. Xiaotong decided to take this opportunity to see Xiaozhi's growth.

Although she still felt that it was great luck for Xiaozhi to win to this point.

Standing on a stand with a panoramic view of the battlefield, Xiaotong watched Xiaozhi's unruly Charizard lying on its side on the field without any intention of fighting while scratching its belly with its claws. What else can I say besides sighing and shaking my head.
