[Pokémon/Pokémon]Light of Truth

Gym badges are proof of being recognized by gym trainers. Anyone who wants to become a Pokémon trainer will involuntarily pursue the glory of this path. Gym trainers are the light they are most likely to come into contact with and the most likely to look forward to.

Who would want to face the bleak reality when they have the capital to dream.

But Hong didn’t have that capital.

When he received his sister's diagnosis, he had no choice but to face reality.

The cost of treatment was not a small sum, at least it was something he couldn't afford as a new trainer at that time. For a kid from a rich family, that might be just a sum of money to cultivate Pokémon, just a swipe of the hand. But for Hong, who was born as a commoner, her parents had passed away, and she could only afford the cheapest Pokémon food at the time, that amount of money was an astronomical figure.

For him in that situation, the gym badge that originally represented glory turned into a pile of useless scrap metal in an instant.

He watched the children of the aristocratic families running forward without any scruples, but what he thought about was his sister's laughter.

Did he ever complain about God's injustice at that time? Or have you ever hated the joke of fate? I may have screamed, denounced, and escaped, but in the end I accepted it.

"I'm just kidding, don't take what you just said to heart. Different people will have different answers to what the badge means. But for you, the gym badge should have a more cherished meaning."

But you are different, Lin.

You are very naive, very kind, and very stubborn. You stick to your own path and focus only on the south wall.

The kind of person I hate the most.

"After all you know who you want to be."

After all, you live to be who you are, and I live to be who you are.

It's different after all.

"..." Charlie looked away silently and drank the orange juice in one gulp.

She has seen people like this, who always have a gentle smile on their face, and always squint their eyes when they smile, trying to cover up their eyes full of sadness.

Hong is very powerful. At least he does have talent, which is pretty good at this age. But as a civilian trainer, before he became what he is today, his once shining self was crushed.

Fu An, she can hear it...

Charlie couldn't help turning her head to look at Lin Fu'an, who always maintained a calm expression. However, a woman's sixth sense told Charlie that Lin Fu'an did not agree with what Hong said.

Her expression was expressionless but also revealed a little confusion.

"Hong, do you have any filter for me?" Xiao Fu'an was confused.

"...Huh?" Hong's smile almost broke.

Xiao Fu'an frowned and said, "I think it would be better for you to say this to Taoyao... Luo Taohua. She is the one who is firm in herself and sticks to her dreams. Her eyes lit up during the battle."

Hong: ...You think those eyes without highlights will be bright?

Who has a filter for whom?

Hong was about to speak but stopped. She raised her hand to her forehead and sighed.

Xiao Fu'an asked blankly.

"What are you doing? You guys are really..." Hong was dumbfounded. He covered half of his face and wanted to show a helpless expression but couldn't. "Should I say you don't have any self-awareness or should you say you are too self-aware... …”

Lin Fu'an looked at Xia Li, who had been watching, with "I don't understand" in his eyes.

Charlie silently drank another bottle of orange juice, her eyes wandering.

As the only normal person here, Senior Sister Xia Li felt that she was under great pressure, "Hong...he is happy, yes, happy. He thinks what you said is right, yes, very right."

"...Xia, you can choose not to speak."

"Cough cough cough."

Senior Xia Li was incompetent and furious. It was disgusting and she didn’t want to think about who caused the embarrassing situation.

Until they got off the high-speed train, the three of them still went about their business and fell into a strange silence.

Xia Li felt that after sitting in the car, Hong's hatred for Fu An increased by ten percent. After a while, Hong will probably be able to shout out the classic line "I hate you for being a piece of wood."

However, the person involved, Lin Fu'an, really had no idea what was wrong.

The three of them took a taxi and arrived at the scene immediately after getting off the high-speed train. Then at a glance, there were only heads.

Xia Li was intimidated, "...it seems that there are far more spectators than contestants." It felt like there were more than five times more.

"After all, it is the weekend, and there is also an internal live broadcast, so there will naturally be more people watching the show." Hong was not surprised by the huge crowd. Students from several middle schools in Hong Kong City would have chosen to watch the show even if they did not participate in the competition. "We will go through the contestant aisle. good."

"Hong, here's the question, can you find the players' tunnel?" Wherever he looked, there was only a sea of ​​people. Lin Fu'an couldn't even find a sign for the competition.

Hong was silent for a while, then said with difficulty: "I'll try my best..."

Ten minutes later, they were lost in the sea of ​​people.

"Help, if we don't arrive on time, there won't be an announcement going off all over the place looking for someone." Charlie's face changed immediately as she thought of their team name.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Five minutes before the start of the game, the venue's broadcast began to play in a loop: "'Fight for Money' Team! 'Fight for Money' Team! Hong, Lin Fu'an, Xia Li! Please!" Go to aisle C12 immediately and enter the venue! Hong, Lin Fu'an, Xia Li! Please go to aisle C12 immediately and enter the venue!" But it not only shouted the name of the team, but also the names of the team members.

At this moment, one Charlie lost her color.

"Pfft, how could anyone choose such a vulgar team name?" An unnamed passerby laughed out loud after hearing the broadcast.

Lin Fu'an, Hong, Xia Li: (staring——)

Unknown passerby: Why does my neck feel so cold...

As a passage for players, the crowd will naturally make way for players to enter the venue. This also caused people on both sides of the passage to see the true faces of the three members of the "Fighting for Money" team.

The young man wearing a feather hat on the left smiled calmly, the short girl in the middle had an expressionless face, and the pretty girl on the right covered her face with a blue cotton bird.

"'Fight for Money' team, Hong, Lin Fu'an, Xia Li?" The registration staff at the entrance confirmed the ID photos of the three people, and allowed them to go if there were no problems. "The competition will start soon, there will be The staff will take you to the entrance of the maze. Ms. Charlie, after entering the venue, you must put away your Green Bird. Except for poison-type Pokémon, other Pokémon are not allowed to use it."

"Oh, okay." Charlie said, burying her face a little deeper.

There are dozens of passages for players throughout the venue. Taking different passages will lead to different entrances to the maze. After the game starts, the staff will open the maze door in batches to let the team in. The three of them are the latest to arrive, and are undoubtedly the last batch. Hong observed the contestants around him, and they were consistent with what he knew. The first place should be guaranteed this time.

The only troublesome thing is how to get to the battle stage in the middle of the maze. Getting out of the maze depends on luck. Hong felt that as long as the three of them were not road crazy, it would only be a matter of time before they walked out.

By the time it was their turn to go in, the time had already reached ten-ten. After the three people stepped into the maze door, the staff immediately closed and locked it, losing the light from the outside world, and they could truly feel the deep atmosphere inside the entire maze.

"This feels more like a haunted house than a maze." Charlie looked around curiously. As a person who made up the numbers, she had no pressure at all. Whether she could get the 100,000 yuan completely depended on her teammates. She was lucky to not lose the chain.

"Aren't ghosts also poisonous? Maybe a wave of ghosts will appear while walking. But it's okay. As long as they dare to come, Alis will bite them one by one." Lin Fu'an said, and Alidos's front feet also He knocked on the ground in cooperation. Although Alis thought that ghosts looked like black sesame glutinous rice balls, they were actually not delicious.

Charlie hesitated and said: "95% of Guisi's body is poisonous gas. You shouldn't be able to eat poisonous gas..."

Lin Fu'an immediately answered: "Poison gas is good, Alis likes it the most."

Alis:...? You old man, when did I say that (﹁"﹁)

"Okay, you better be careful. There are many traps inside the maze. You'd better not touch the walls. Some hidden mechanisms should be set on the walls." Compared with Lin Fu'an and Xia Li's relaxation, Hong Hong He was much more cautious. He turned around and warned them, then patted the Stingy Bee on the back and asked him to go ahead and carefully inquire about the situation.

"It's a trap. It's so dark here. If there is a trap under your feet, if you don't pay attention, you will... Wow!" Before Charlie could finish her words, she felt something stepped on the sole of her foot. She instantly turned pale, thinking that she She stepped on something terrible and was so startled that she raised her leg to retreat, but her foot was stuck to the ground and she couldn't pull it out.

Lin Fu'an knelt down and took a look. What was stuck to the soles of Xia Li's shoes was a kind of purple-black clay. It should be one of those things that can only be eliminated with a poisonous skill.

"The stickiness is not weak, but it should be removed by poison. Charlie, lift your feet as high as you can. Alis, use the poison needle on the clay." Charlie exerted force on her feet and turned red. His face was so embarrassed that he lifted his feet a few centimeters off the ground. Alidos seized the opportunity to release the poisonous needle, cutting the clay from the middle, and finally freed Charlie's foot.

Before Charlie had time to breathe a sigh of relief, she was worried about the sticky part of the sole again. If she stepped on it, it would still stick to the floor.

"Easy, Alis, spin the thread." Lin Fu'an clapped his hands and asked Alidos to spin some dead thread to wrap up Charlie's feet.

In fact, you can also use Rose Redo's magic leaves, but the leaves will be trampled and the spider silk will not. Especially Alis Publishing spider silk, which is resistant to being stepped on and high temperature and not easy to break, is definitely your best choice!

Senior Xia Li, whose feet were covered with spider silk, happily put down her feet, and then unfortunately stepped on the same ground again.

Lin Fu'an:...

Alis: (﹁"﹁)

Charlie: qaq! ! !
