The early morning dew condenses on the tussocks of grass, and the pale golden sunlight shines on the earth, making the dewdrops appear translucent, reflecting the shape of the early sun.

The sound of rustling came out, and three pairs of slender or thick legs passed through the wet weeds. The original dust on the surface of the trousers and skirts became thick and turned into stains remaining on the clothes.

Not caring about the dirt on their bodies, Fang Yuxuan and the other three came to an empty area and stopped. In front of them were ruins, collapsed walls and broken columns. It seemed that this place was originally a sacred place. I don’t know if it was a place used for worship, or it was an ancient and mysterious ruin that was destroyed.

However, it is obvious that this place has been desolate and dirty for a long time. Judging from the style of the buildings and the spider webs exposed in the gaps between the moss, it must have been abandoned for at least a hundred years.

"What are you doing here? Are there any ancient ruins left? Or are there legendary Pokémon?" Dazhi's brown pupils glowed, but he didn't lose his composure. Of course, he himself doesn't pay attention to his words and deeds.

Neither Fang Yuxuan nor Qiqi answered his question. They looked at each other and walked towards the broken buildings and weeds, with Dazhi following closely behind.

After crossing the stone pier covered with cobwebs, Fang Yuxuan and Qiqi came to a cave entrance and stopped again.

A shabby curtain hangs at the entrance of the cave that is one person high. This is the place where Qiqi once lived. It is still the same, with no change.

Fang Yuxuan glanced at Qiqi, who lowered her head and said nothing, hesitated, and finally said: "Let's... go in."

"Well..." Qiqi nodded slightly, then stretched out her slender hand and took the initiative to open the door curtain in front of her. .seven

When the scene in the shade room came into view, Fang Yuxuan was stunned.

Because...the old lady who was lying on the bed losing her breath before...is gone.

The cave was empty, and now there was nothing. Even the table with two broken legs and the not-so-thick bedding had disappeared.

Could it be that someone plundered this place before this! ?

Fang Yuxuan had such an idea for the first time, but denied it the next moment.

There are no signs of damage here. If you think about it carefully, no one would have spared the shabby table and bedding.

Thinking of this, he looked at Qiqi and found that the little girl never showed any surprise or disbelief, as if she had expected it.

The Eevee in her arms looked around with a blank look on her face, and found that her grandma was missing. It made a slight cry, "Eevee? Eevee~Eevee~" (Where is mom? Where is mom? )

Fang Yuxuan looked down at Ibrahimovic and understood that it regarded the grandma as its mother. From the grandmother's mouth, he knew that Ibrahimovic was given to her by her wife.

Looking up at Qiqi's profile, she was calm, her eyes were like blue moons, and she was surprisingly peaceful, which was very different from her hairstyle with twin tails.

"Qiqi..." Fang Yuxuan hesitated, wondering whether he should ask some questions.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiqi untied the slightly curly twintails on her head and let her wavy, slightly curly yellow hair hang loosely behind her back.

At this moment, she was silent, with long curly yellow hair hanging over her shoulders, tightly closed lips, and her watery yellow eyes were nearly half covered by double eyelids. Her temperament suddenly became completely different from before.

Showing off her intelligence, Qiqi's demeanor was demure and she glanced at Fang Yuxuan beside her. Her emotional yellow eyes were shining brightly, and her lips were slightly open, revealing her teeth, as if she was about to say something.

But at this moment, she couldn't help but glance at the empty room, tried her best to endure her emotions, and said softly: "They took grandma away, I know it, so... let's go."

Seeing the current ambition, how could he not guess what happened? After hearing Qiqi's almost crying words, he straightened his back immediately and said aggressively: "What! Who? Who took your grandma away? His milk, uh ...His grandfather's, you know who it is, right? Tell me quickly and I will get your grandma back for you, so that you can at least see her one last time."

"No, thank you." Qiqi shook her head, not letting the tears in her eyes fall. She kept her head down, letting her hair cover her beautiful eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes.

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Yuxuan felt that what Dazhi said was right, and it was not impossible that someone might have snatched her grandma away.

Just as he was about to speak, the words were hanging on his lips and he couldn't blurt them out. Fang Yuxuan suddenly felt that he shouldn't speak so directly, it was too rash.

Somehow, Fang Yuxuan, who had zero love experience, found that he had never been so nervous. After briefly organizing his words, he said: "Then do you know where grandma is? Well, I mean, the 'they' you said... …What is the purpose of taking grandma away.”

As soon as these words came out, the room fell into silence again.

There was a hint of tension in the air, not to mention Fang Yuxuan, even Dazhi, a tall and thick man, felt nervous and didn't know what to say to comfort the little girl in front of him.

After a while, Qiqi finally said: "I know, don't worry, they didn't mean any harm, they just buried grandma for me."

Qiqi raised her head and looked at Fang Yuxuan's face. Before he and Dazhi could respond, she immediately lowered her head and continued: "Brother, I'm tired and want to go back and rest."

"Yeah, okay." Fang Yuxuan was stunned for a moment, looking at Qiqi gently, without asking anything, just nodded slightly, and then accompanied her back to the Pokémon Center in Nibi City with Dazhi.

……

Pokémon Center, in a dark room.

After watching Qiqi cover herself with the quilt and fall asleep with Ibrahimovic, Fang Yuxuan picked up his backpack and quietly exited her room. After looking at each other and Dazhi, he closed the door of the room.

"Bah!"

The light in the room disappeared, and Qiqi's closed eyes reopened. Her dim eyes stared at the bedside and the curtains that blocked the sun. She didn't know what she was thinking about, and she didn't blink for a long time.

She just stared blankly, her eyes dull.

Ibrahimovic also opened his eyes. He seemed to realize something. He looked at Qiqi with his watery eyes and cried out in a tearful tone: "Eeveeee~"

Qiqi ignored Ibrahimovic's call and just lay there quietly.

I don't know how much time passed, but finally a drop of crystal tear appeared in the corner of her eye, sliding down from the corner of her eye and falling into the red ear.

Hugging Eevee next to her tightly, she kept swallowing her saliva, trying not to let the bitterness in her throat turn into a sound. But even so, a slight whimpering sound would occasionally be heard in the room.

……

On the walkway outside the house, Fang Yuxuan and Dazhi looked at each other and remained silent for a long time.

Finally, Dazhi broke the silence. He looked up at the sunshine outside the window and said, "Go and rest first. Look at the dark circles under your eyes, like a naughty panda."

Fang Yuxuan, who had become accustomed to Dazhi's way of speaking, nodded slightly and didn't say much. He just glanced at Dazhi before returning to the room and said, "You should go and have a rest too. This is what Miss Joy told me. She heard about the square In this case, I am sure it is mild poisoning and I need to take a rest to get better."

With that said, he returned to the room and closed the door.

When they entered the Pokémon Center, he sent Leib, Variety, and Charizard for treatment. At that time, Dazhi and Qiqi were waiting aside and did not notice his conversation with Miss Joy. It was at that time that Qiqi returned Fang Yuxuan's backpack to him.

The reason why he let Dazhi rest was because the old man who called himself "Yu" said that only Dazhi came with him and Qiqi and did not receive any notification from Zhao Weijian.

"Huh~" Fang Yuxuan leaned behind the door and casually threw aside the backpack containing the 200,000 bonus. He untied the trousers tied to his body and the jacket that Qiqi returned.

The original coat and the pants he was wearing were already extremely dirty. The orange coat he was wearing was slightly stained, but it didn't have much impact.

"Alas! Qiqi has clothes to change into. Except for the so-called championship suit, I am even reduced to a situation where I have no clothes to wear." Fang Yuxuan shook his head helplessly, and could only keep his underwear and change out of his jacket.

Each room in the Pokémon Center has a small bathroom designed similar to a hotel. He fed the Pokémon in the silver ring with one click as usual, then washed briefly and lay on the bed.

Because he was tired, he didn't bother to have breakfast. Just like this, doing nothing, just lying in bed, it's fine.

Carefully recalling what happened after arriving at the Pokémon Center, he gradually fell into a deep sleep.

After a night of fighting and Zoroark's departure, how could he not be tired.

This night, he slept very comfortably, but not at ease.

When he woke up, the first thing he thought of was Zoroark, followed closely by Qiqi.

Suddenly he woke up, opened his eyes, lifted the quilt, opened the curtains, looked at the bright sunshine outside the room, and subconsciously exclaimed: "I can't sleep all day!"

Turning on the communication watch of the Joban branch, he checked the time. It was still the same day, and it was now two o'clock in the afternoon. In other words, he had slept for about six hours.

"Huh~" He breathed out softly and sat on the edge of the bed, enjoying the quiet and peaceful time. He even felt greedy, hoping to be able to just sit in a daze like this until the evening.

But whenever he thinks of Zoroark, he can't help but think of the disputes at the top of the alliance. Now he doesn't even have a badge. In the silver ring, all the game props and items are complete, except for the gym badge he once obtained.

However, even if it does, it will have no effect. After all, the gym leaders in the Pokémon world don't know themselves. If they take out eight badges for no reason, they will definitely cause trouble.

"Time is running out!" Fang Yuxuan shook his head, put his hands on the edge of the bed behind him, and stood up.

After putting on her clothes, she walked out of the door and looked at the room to the side, which was Qiqi's room.

The door was still closed, and there was no movement inside. He paused for a while, and after regaining consciousness, he shook his head and did not disturb Qiqi.

Coming to the Pokémon medical area, he came to visit Pikachu and them. Just as he was about to look for his Pokémon, he heard the sound of conversation in his ears.

"Hey, have you heard? Nibi City Gym trainer Jiro completed the final assessment at noon today and was successfully promoted to Gym Leader."

"Oh? Really? That's great. Our Nibi City also has a strong gym leader. It's really great."

"There may indeed be only Jiro as the gym leader, but if he is a normal trainer at this level, there may be more than one of him. It is said that the genius of the Hualan branch of the Trainers Guild, Luo Yi's girlfriend, Goddess Lucy, is us She is from Nibi City, and she is most likely at the gym leader level."

"Is this true!?"

"Hey, what's the matter? Xiaogang, the former gym trainer in Nibi City, also has the strength of a gym leader. I heard that Jiro's current strength is still a little behind his eldest brother Xiaogang."

"Really? Then why did Xiaogang give up his identity as the gym leader and leave Nibi City?"

"Hmm! I'm not sure. Maybe I want to go out and see the outside world. Also, our Nibi City is only so big, so we really can't restrict trainers of their level."

"..."

Regarding the verbal conversation between the two, Fang Yuxuan only listened to a few words and then became uninterested in the content that followed.

"Has Jiro become the gym leader? This is a good thing. Otherwise, it would be really inappropriate if I were to become a stumbling block in his last battle and prevent his promotion." Fang Yuxuan secretly felt happy for Jiro.

Scanning his eyes, he quickly found his Pokémon. When he came to them, he found that their injuries had almost recovered.

Leib and the Variety Monster themselves have full-level physiques. Although they are facing the attack of the Staff Tail Scale Armored Dragon that may exceed their physical limits, after all, there is only one blow, and they will not reach the point of being seriously injured and dying.

"Pika~Pikachu!" Pikachu's pretty face was filled with a bright smile. It came close to Fang Yuxuan and kept rubbing its cheek against him.

Seeing this, Lei Yibu certainly couldn't sit idly by and ignored it. He almost recovered and easily jumped into Fang Yuxuan's arms.

Holding these two little guys, a faint smile appeared on Fang Yuxuan's face. He turned around subconsciously, only to find that there was no one behind him.

Looking blankly at the empty space behind him, Fang Yuxuan couldn't help but feel bitter at the corner of his mouth.

The scene in front of him seemed to be changing, returning to the time when Pikachu and Reib were competing for favor in his arms in the underground of Viridian Forest. At that time, Zoroark looked envious as the two of them were lying in his arms acting coquettishly, staring straight at him.

The scene seems to have reappeared, but one of the figures is missing. Fang Yuxuan sighed softly and shook his head helplessly.

He looked at the smiling Pikachu, their eyes met, and for a moment, he seemed to be able to feel the emptiness and loss in Pikachu's heart.

After coming back to his senses, he looked at Pikachu, who was still smiling. How could Fang Yuxuan not know that this little guy was forcing a smile in order to lighten the atmosphere and arouse emotions.

Leibu and Variety Monster were retracted into the Poké Ball because they were seriously injured before. They didn't know what happened, so the two of them smiled happily.

In a corner not far away, Charizard and Water Arrow Turtle stared at Fang Yuxuan's back and felt a guy close to them. The two glanced at each other, then turned their heads aside, surprisingly not fighting.

Pikachu looked up at Fang Yuxuan and realized that he seemed to see something, so he lowered his head and took off his disguise.

"Pika~" (Why no matter what, my acting skills can't escape your eyes.)

Fang Yu didn't answer, his eyes were gentle, from Pikachu to Leib, and then to the Dior. After seeing the three Pokémon, he felt lost.

Just then, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him.

"The large Pokémon are over there. Your Charizard and Blastoise are together, but they don't seem to be getting along well." Miss Joy walked over with her lucky egg with a smile on her face.

Hearing this, Fang Yuxuan turned around and forced out a smile, "Yes, the two of them are like enemies."

"This kind of friendship seems good." Miss Joy covered her mouth and smiled softly. It seemed that because Charizard and Blastoise didn't fight, she didn't think the two were mortal enemies.

Then, she continued: "Well, your Pokémon's injuries are not serious. They are almost recovered now. You can take them back."

"Okay, thank you Miss Joy." Fang Yuxuan nodded slightly, and he and the other party came to the front of the fire-breathing dragon and water arrow turtle.

Looking at the two Pokémon who looked like enemies, the smile on Miss Joy's face never faded.

Charizard and Blastoise expressed their dissatisfaction with Miss Joy's eyes. They protested strongly, explaining that they had no friendship at all with a certain tortoise (dog dragon). The tortoise (dog dragon) was their mortal enemy and hoped that she would not show her face again. Such a look.

It's a pity that Miss Joy can't understand the language of Pokémon like Fang Yuxuan. She feels even more envious of the consistent behavior of the two Pokémon in front of her.

"You have trained two good Pokémon. Looking at their excited expressions, they must be showing me that they will be lifelong partners." Miss Joy looked at Charizard and Waterbolt with envy. The turtles seemed moved by their friendship.

You guessed wrong, ma'am, the truth is just the opposite... Fang Yuxuan's face was expressionless, and the corner of his mouth twitched. Feeling the intense gazes from the Charizard and the Water Arrow Turtle, he turned a blind eye and had no intention of explaining to them.

Finally, with Miss Joy's permission, he took away the nearly crazy Charizard, Blastoise, and Pikachu.

Returning to the lobby of the Pokémon Center, Fang Yuxuan spotted a familiar figure.

It was Dazhi. At this time, he had changed into a large T-shirt and was sitting by the glass window, tasting the dazzling array of food in front of the table.

Fang Yuxuan walked straight towards Dazhi and sat opposite him.

"Um..." When Dazhi saw that the person coming was Fang Yuxuan, he hesitated for a moment, and then tentatively said: "How about... some?"

"Okay!" Fang Yuxuan responded simply, not paying attention to the other party's strange eyes, and started to enjoy his meal.

Humph, you really thought I would be polite to you. What a coincidence, I haven't eaten for a day... Fang Yuxuan turned his sorrow into appetite and glanced at Dazhi from time to time.

After he had eaten and drank enough, he wiped his mouth with a tissue and said, "President Zhao told me to go to the square to find him in the morning to receive the extra reward."

Dazhi glanced at Fang Yuxuan quietly, without saying anything.

The two looked at each other as if frozen.

After a moment, Dazhi responded with a slight twitch of his mouth, "Fuck! I understand, you can leave."

"Where to go?" Fang Yuxuan looked indifferent.

"Just do whatever you have to do." Dazhi looked impatient.

"I also want to prepare some dinner for Qiqi." Fang Yuxuan's face did not turn red, and his heart did not beat.

Dazhi: "..."
