[Pokemon] Late Autumn

"Boy..." Darubi's roar became deeper and hoarse. He leaned over slightly and stared at the other person closely, "You shouldn't be here."

Delubi stood between Shen Qiu and Riolu, looking warily at Riolu who finally stood up and was panting.

It doesn't know what the other party plans to do, but at least now, the other party doesn't seem to be normal.

Riolu said nothing.

Its forehead was still red, it was still feverish, and its legs were still tied with white bandages, but its eyes were very stubborn, with a hint of forbearance and unwillingness, and it looked straight at Late Autumn.

"Why... abandon me?"

Here we go again, this is Riolu’s waveguide!

"I didn't abandon you," Shenqiu shook her head, walked forward, looked at Riolu gently, and said in a soft voice, "You should be treated at the Elf Center, instead of sneaking out regardless of your physical condition. "

She saw Miss Joy catching up not far away, panting, and smiled apologetically: "I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's okay..." Miss Joy was very considerate, but her tone was very worrying, "The child ran out in this direction halfway through the treatment. It didn't answer when I called it...it turned out to be here to find you."

Shen Qiu pursed her lips. Riolu was still running a fever, but he ran out directly. This would cause great harm to his body, and there might be some sequelae.

"Is it because... I'm useless..." Riolu's waveguide suddenly became sad, and it lowered its head in frustration, "I tried many times and worked very hard, but I still..."

"I'm sorry..." Riolu closed his eyes and turned away, as if he wanted to escape something, and as if he had made some decision, "I won't do this again..."

I am unqualified.

I'm useless.

I can do nothing.

Through the waveguide, she could feel the strong sense of self-denial and rejection, and the negative emotions that hit her soul made her almost breathless.

She took a deep breath.

"look at me."

Riolu still seems to be in a unclear state of mind, probably thinking that he is its previous trainer.

Shenqiu frowned, feeling like she understood something.

According to what it said before, Riolu's previous bastard trainer should have wanted Riolu to do something, but Riolu couldn't learn it after many attempts, so he abandoned Riolu angrily.

What kind of scum is this!

Late Qiu's anger suddenly rose, but seeing Riolu's sad and lonely expression, she had no choice but to suppress her anger again and gently touched Riolu's head.

"Riolu, you are a very powerful being, not weak at all." She looked directly into Riolu's eyes, "I don't know what you have experienced before, but now, I think you should take good care of yourself. Rest. Be obedient, get some sleep, and everything will be fine.”

Riolu blinked his eyes in confusion, looking at the unclear face in front of him, which looked extremely soft under the moonlight.

This person in front of me... why does he suddenly feel so gentle? I have clearly abandoned it, and now I am saying this again...

I clearly know how much hatred this person has in his heart, but why can't he help it again...

It didn't have the energy to think so much anymore. It had spent all its energy running over. Under the gentle soothing of Late Autumn, it lay heavily in Late Autumn's arms and fell asleep.

"This child... I found it near here. It was seriously injured and seemed to have some mental problems. It seemed that I was its previous trainer... I won't disturb you anymore. I have to take it with me quickly. Go back to the Elf Center."

Shenqiu looked at Xiaozhi and the others who seemed to have a lot to say, so she just "shushed" slightly, shook her head helplessly, and lowered her voice to explain to them.

She walked back with Riolu in her arms and looked back at the mysterious stairs leading underground.

Forget it, there's nothing I can do about missing this opportunity... Let's wait until Riolu's matter is resolved.

Joey quickly followed, and the two hurried back to the Elf Center under the moonlight.

Joey quickly brought Riolu back to the treatment room and gave him a full body examination. Looking at the test results in her hands, she widened her eyes in surprise.

"What happened, Miss Joy?" Shen Qiu noticed Miss Joy's strange expression and couldn't help but ask.

"How strange..." Miss Joy murmured to herself, operated the equipment, and put the fever-reducing patch on Riolu's forehead, and then looked at the serious expression of Shen Qiu behind her.

"Riolu..." Joey seemed to be organizing his words, "Based on its muscle distribution and test results, Riolu seems to be... unable to use any fighting moves."

Late Qiu looked at Joey in surprise, then looked at Riolu who had scars on his legs.

She seemed to know the reason why Riolu was abandoned.

"And..." Joey put down the stethoscope in her hand. Seeing the serious expression on Shen Qiu's face, she sighed and shook her head slightly.

"The vocal cords were completely damaged."

"...!" Shen Qiu's eyes widened and her breath suffocated.

She lowered her eyes and said nothing, unable to imagine how much pain Riolu must have suffered on such a thin body.

Only then did Shen Qiu realize that the reason why Riolu had never said a word, but used a waveguide to send the sound directly into her brain, was because it couldn't speak at all.

The previous trainer cruelly abandoned Riolu precisely because this Riolu could not use any fighting moves at all.

In this way, the injuries all over its body are explained. Nothing else, it is precisely because of its endless training, no matter the wind or rain, sharpening itself day and night, trying to learn fighting moves to prove itself... which resulted in such serious scars.

Joy also fell silent. She guessed that Riolu might have communicated with Shenqiu through the waveguide before. She used to think that this child was very afraid of strangers and didn't dare to speak, but it turned out to be like this...

Joey let out a long sigh. All the first aid measures he could do had been taken. As long as he could wake up tomorrow morning and receive a few more days of treatment, Riolu's body would not have any major problems, but his voice But can't come back.

Fortunately, Shen Qiu discovered it in time and took the correct countermeasures, otherwise she would simply not dare to imagine the consequences of no one noticing Riolu after he fell into coma...

Joey shuddered.

She glanced at Mid-Autumn, who was watching Riolu intently, her brows furrowed with worry. Seeing that she insisted on staying here, he said nothing more. He just told Shen Qiu some things about Riolu in a gentle tone, and then went out to take care of other elves who needed treatment.

The instrument was still making a beeping sound, but other than that, the only sound that could be heard was the wind blowing in the quiet night.

"Riolu..." After a long time, Shenqiu spoke slowly, with a voice as soft as a feather floating by, "I have always believed in one sentence."

She suddenly said something without any end, causing Dairubi, who was about to close his eyes, to open them again and look at the profile of Late Qiu's face without blinking.

"There are no bad elves, only bad trainers."

She suddenly laughed softly.

"I used to think that the powerful elf represented everything...because ability and strength are innate, just like the walking grass on the roadside, it can never be compared to the Rayquaza soaring in the sky."

Sitting next to the hospital bed in late autumn, letting myself clear my mind, my voice sounded long and distant. She raised her head and looked through the window at the stars in the night sky. In the distant night sky, those stars were like countless diamonds scattered on the blue-black velvet, twinkling with light. This reminded her of the nights she spent in Dragon's Hometown, when she couldn't sleep and looked at the misty and beautiful starry sky like this.

"But I couldn't have been more wrong."

Unobstructed by the lights of the city and the shadows of tall buildings, the night sky is permeated by the freshness and purity of the town, making it appear extremely quiet. The window was opened a small crack, and the gentle night wind came in, blowing the curtains into a gentle wave-like arc, and gently caressing the late autumn cheeks. She closed her eyes and felt the breath of the water-like wind.

"Indeed, there is no absolute equality anywhere. We are very ordinary, and we may not be able to reach the heights of gods even if we spend our whole lives trying, but if we don't work hard and try, we will be worse than ants."

"I don't know where my limits are...so when I'm lost, I'm trying to learn more and more like crazy every day..."

"I was confused, but not scared."

She lost the memories of her childhood. In Shuangyong Academy, she abided by the rules, was cautious in her words and deeds, and was polite. Apart from studying, she spent a lot of time in the library to enrich herself. She didn't have much time for fun. She even went to the gym to visit Dai. Ruby time will also eventually turn into mentoring and extracurricular teaching.

It's not that she's not anxious or confused, but she just doesn't want to be blind in a strange environment, and when she wants to use knowledge one day in the future, she won't regret it, so why didn't she try hard at that time.

It's not terrible to be lost. What's terrible is that you don't know how to find the direction.

Dairubi curled up the corners of his mouth, and his eyes looking at Late Autumn looked particularly gentle under the moonlight.

"I dare not say that I am excellent, because I don't have any proof to prove myself now," Late Qiu lowered his head and looked at Riolu softly, "Riolu. You have enough time to prove your excellence, any No one can ignore your light - maybe you can't loudly declare your strength, but you can overwhelm everyone who says no to you with your unrivaled momentum and hard work."

"I believe you."

Shen Qiu shook her head. She didn't know why she talked so much tonight. Even though Riolu was still asleep, she kept talking.

Maybe too much happened today, maybe the moonlight tonight is too soft, maybe Riolu resonated with her, maybe she just couldn't sleep and wanted to express her inner thoughts.

Late Qiu lay beside the hospital bed, feeling a wave of sleepiness coming over him quickly. He glanced at Riolu who was still sleeping, smiled, said good night to him and Delubi, and couldn't help but hit him. He yawned and fell asleep on the edge of the bed.

Delubi stared at Late Qiu for a long time, seeming to be touched by her words.

It looked up at the starry night sky outside the window, and then at Riolu, the hospital bed, seeming to be thinking about something. Not long after, it found a suitable position next to Shen Qiu's legs, and slowly closed its eyes.

What it didn't know was that Riolu's fingertips moved on the hospital bed.

The weather was so good the next day that Riolu opened his eyes early and saw Late Qiu, who had slept all night beside the hospital bed, and Delubi beside her.

The girl had her eyes closed, and her soft brown hair was draped over her shoulders. The sunlight projected from the bedside and hit the girl, as soft as a European oil painting.

Riolu... didn't do anything, just watched quietly for a while.

It actually didn't hear clearly what late autumn said last night, but there was a very gentle voice whispering in its ear. That voice seemed to contain gentle and healing power, and its whole body was in that voice. Get relaxed.

It hasn't slept so comfortably in a long time.

Late Qiu heard what seemed to be movement above his head, rubbed his eyes and stood up.

"How are you feeling, Riolu?" She stood up and handed Riolu some water on the bedside. "Drink some water. If there is any problem, you can let me feel it through the waveguide."

Riolu finally saw the person in front of him clearly. Her red eyes were full of sincerity and worry, and she looked nothing like her former trainer.

This is the person...she helped herself!

Riolu felt the familiar waveguide. The waveguide that gave it a helping hand when it was in great pain was the very beautiful girl in front of him.

"Thank you." As soon as Mid-Autumn put the bowl from which Riolu drank water back on the bedside table, he heard a familiar shota sound in his mind.

"You're welcome." Shen Qiu tried to reply to Riolu in his mind, but he didn't expect the other person's eyes to widen in surprise.

"You...can you hear my waveguide?" Riolu looked at her with his big eyes, his voice sounded a little incredible.

"Yes, I can." Shenqiu's voice couldn't help but smile, and two pairs of similar red eyes looked at each other, "How else do you think I discovered you?"

Riolu's cheeks were slightly red. He lowered his head in bewilderment and said in a small voice, "Sorry... my memory is a bit confusing. It was unintentional at that time..."

It believed that its unconscious actions had disturbed Shenqiu and disrupted the other party's original plan.

"Why do you think so?" Shen Qiu smiled helplessly and shook her head, "I'm so glad I heard your call for help at that time, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to help you."

Riolu said no more, and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings.

"It's okay, this is the Elf Center. Do you feel better?" Shen Qiu noticed Riolu's movements.

"Yes. But I feel a little weak..." Riolu raised his paw and shook it, feeling that he had no strength.

Delubi watched expressionlessly as Late Qiu and Riolu spoke words it couldn't hear through the encrypted channel. A pair of blood-red eyes watched emotionlessly as the other two pairs of red eyes looked at each other affectionately.

It couldn't hear what Shen Qiu and Riolu said at all.

Until Joey opened the door and walked in, seeing three pairs of similar eyes staring at her, she couldn't help but a drop of sweat slipping down the back of her head.

"Lee... Olu is awake, it's great... he seems to be in good spirits, I feel more relieved."

"Thank you, Miss Joy, for this." Shen Qiu stood up with a smile and watched gratefully as Joy checked Riolu again and replaced her with new medicine.

"You're welcome, this is what I should do." Joey wrapped the new gauze around Riolu's injured leg. After finishing his work, he nodded to Ming Qiu, "Just change the medicine a few times and everything will be basically healed. Riolu recovered quickly."

"That's great." Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.
