Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Looking at the slightly trembling figure of Sakurai Mitsuki, Nanako gently took off her shoes and slowly placed her small feet on the sofa.

She stretched out her slender arms and gently hugged her knees, as if this could give her some sense of security.

She curled up her petite body as much as possible, her eyes full of confusion and surprise, staring at Sakurai Mizuki intently.

Her heart was full of confusion. Why did the teacher look so strange today?

Nanako's eyes revealed a complex emotion of worry and curiosity.

After the Ultra Beast incident, because her family was full of worries and concerns, Nanako had no choice but to return to Neon from Qinghai City to go to school.

That period was a special experience for her.

When the disaster happened, she was still enjoying the dinner she had just prepared and had no idea what was happening.

Just when she was confused, the kind-hearted neighbor grandmother came knocking on the door in a hurry, and then forcibly took her to the shelter without any explanation.

Throughout the whole process, she was like a frightened little rabbit, at a loss as to what to do with this sudden change.

From the beginning to the end, until the matter gradually settled, Nanako had never seen the Ultra Beast even once.

She just stayed in the shelter, listening to the noisy conversations of people around her and feeling the tense and uneasy atmosphere.

Later, she heard that her classmates Lin Yi, Ruan Yaoyao, and Ye Feng were at the most dangerous place of the incident, bravely resisting the outward expansion of the Ultimate Beasts. They were true heroes.

The news filled her with admiration and also gave her a deeper understanding of the disaster.

It is precisely for this reason that Sakurai Mizuki developed some interest in the Ultimate Beasts.

She learned a little about the Ultra Beast incident through some details she heard from the people in the shelter, and through uploaded photos and videos she searched online.

Then, relying on her imagination and writing skills, she wrote a chapter about the Ultimate Beast incident from her first-person perspective and posted it online.

Since the hot topic at that time was Ultra Beasts, people were very interested in related information, so Nanako's article attracted a lot of attention, and she also received a good amount of royalties for it.

Not long after that, on a sunny day, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Nanako ran to open the door, and when she saw Sakurai Mizuki standing outside, her eyes widened in surprise and she was so excited that she almost fainted.

You know, being a national champion is the highest honor that anyone who dreams of becoming a trainer dreams of!

And now, this legendary figure appeared in front of him.

At that time, Sakurai Mitsuki was wearing a simple yet elegant outfit, and she had a unique temperament.

Although her reputation was a little strange at the time due to some reasons, such as the incident of Sakurai and her accidental death, which made people's views of her controversial, the innocent Nanako did not think too much about it. She simply attributed it to the fact that a big tree attracts the wind.

After all, in her eyes, the halo of the champion is enough to cover everything.

After finding Nanako, Sakurai Mitsuki first took out the article Nanako wrote about the Ultra Beast incident with a smile, and politely asked her if she wrote it herself.

Nanako looked at her article and nodded nervously and excitedly.

After receiving a positive answer, Sakurai Mitsuki enthusiastically discussed it with Nanako.

Nanako was so happy that she almost jumped up. On the one hand, as the champion of Neon Country, Sakurai Mitsuki was a high-ranking figure in the world of trainers. She felt as if she was in a dream that she could chat so closely with an unknown person like her.

On the other hand, because the disaster that the Ultra Beasts once brought to the Zhunan Islands was so great, as soon as people heard the name of the Ultra Beasts, their faces would change instantly and they would refuse to talk about it anymore.

This resulted in Nanako being sternly rejected whenever she tried to discuss this matter with people around her.

And now, such a big shot is willing to discuss with her the topic she has always wanted to discuss, which makes Nanako very excited.

So, she seemed to have opened up her mouth and told the other party everything she knew, without reservation, as long as she could remember any details about the Ultra Beast incident.

Her eyes were shining with excitement and her hands were gesticulating unconsciously, as if she wanted to vividly demonstrate everything she knew.

Throughout the whole process, Nanako was immersed in joy and excitement. She felt that this was a very special experience in her life.

I don't know why, but Sakurai Mitsuki always cleverly steers the topic towards "Who do you think is likely to capture the Ultimate Beast?"

There seemed to be some expectation hidden in her eyes, or perhaps some other purpose.

Nanako didn't notice anything was wrong. She simply thought it was just a common topic of discussion, so she enthusiastically used the information she had and her brain to speculate, saying:

"Probably Lin Yi, Ruan Yaoyao and Ye Feng."

"Lin Yi is..."

Sakurai Mizuki frowned slightly and asked casually.

"My classmate in Huaxia, the son of the Qinghai City Gym Master."

Nanako replied, her face lit up with pride for her classmate.

"Then Ruan Yaoyao is..."

Sakurai Mizuki continued to ask, with a barely perceptible strangeness flashing in her eyes.

"She's also my classmate, the daughter of China's fighting king." Nanako said with a smile.

"..."

At this moment, for some reason, when Nanako said this, she clearly saw Sakurai Mitsuki's face twitched slightly, and the smile on her face almost couldn't be maintained, as if she heard some news that made her unexpected or unhappy.

Then, Sakurai Mitsuki suppressed her inner emotions and spoke tentatively:

"So, who is Ye Feng?"

Her eyes were fixed on Nanako, and she seemed to be particularly concerned about Ye Feng.

"He is also my classmate." Nanako answered truthfully.

"Isn't he the son of so-and-so?"

Sakurai Mitsuki opened her eyes wide and asked further, with a hint of urgency in her tone.

"No, classmate Ye Feng is a child from an ordinary family."

Nanako seemed to feel that this was inappropriate, and fearing that she was belittling her classmates, she hastily added:

"But he is also very powerful. His Charmander is very strong in close combat!"

As she spoke, she imitated Charmander's fighting movements, trying to make Sakurai Mizuki better understand Ye Feng's strength.

"I understand."

Sakurai Mitsuki smiled and nodded, but Nanako had no idea what she understood.

Behind her smile, there seems to be a deeper thought hidden, which is hard to understand.

Later, Sakurai Mitsuki extended an olive branch to Nanako and invited her to become her student.

Nanako was so overjoyed when she heard the news that she could hardly believe her ears.

Being able to become a champion student is an opportunity that many people dream of!

She agreed without hesitation on the spot.

This time when she came to China, Sakurai Mitsuki brought Nanako with her because she needed a translator who was proficient in both Japanese and Chinese languages, and Nanako could perform this role well.

Nanako followed Sakurai Mizuki to China with great joy. She felt that her life was about to usher in a new and wonderful journey, but she didn't know that behind this, there might be some unexpected things hidden.
