The Rockets' eldest daughter's road to the league championship

Chapter 19: Old friends reunite, Pikachu is seriously injured

You have to know that it is a legendary Pokémon that is hard to find, not an ordinary Pokémon that can be found everywhere. How could it be seen so easily by two rookie trainers?

It’s incredible to think about it. I’m really lucky.

Being questioned by her friend, Qingyi looked unhappy, turned her head and snorted, "Of course it's true, would I admit my mistake?"

Shinji shook his head subconsciously. He had witnessed Qingyi's erudition. It was no exaggeration to say that she was well-read.

That's more like it! Qingyi thought proudly. It was just a small matter, and her emotions came and went quickly.

No wonder people who have had brief contact with Qingyi think that her temperament is changeable and her moods are unpredictable.

"Let's go quickly. We have to get to the Pokémon Center in Viridian City before dark. I don't want to sleep outdoors on the first day of my trip. That's so unlucky!" Qingyi said, touching her braid.

Shinji: "Okay, let's go."

Oh! If only the Shark had evolved into Garchomp, then I could ride Garchomp to Viridian City and not have to worry about sleeping outdoors at night. Unfortunately, the Shark is still a Sharptooth Garchomp and cannot carry people.

I don’t know when Shark will be able to evolve again!

Qingyi thought this in her heart as she walked forward.

She didn't want to dwell too much on the matter of the divine beast. It was already their good fortune to be able to see the divine beast. There was not much meaning in dwelling too much on it. After all, the divine beast was still too far away from her now and was out of reach.

As for Xiaozhi, Qingyi had long forgotten about him. Anyway, she had already taken a photo of Ho-Oh, so there was no way she would care about Xiaozhi's situation.

The two walked side by side on the country road, Qingyi was relaxed and her steps were brisk.

Shinji's excitement from seeing the Ho-Oh had not yet completely subsided, and his breathing was a little unstable as he walked beside Qingyi.

But this did not affect Qingyi's good mood, she was humming a little tune to herself.

"Today's weather is so sunny and the scenery is so beautiful..."

Although the tune is not very suitable for the occasion, Qingyi is so happy that she hums whatever she wants.

……

Joban City.

Because there have been thieves around recently, Miss Kimisa is waiting at the intersection leading into Tokiwa City, checking passers-by to prevent any suspicious people from entering or leaving.

Nearing evening, Qingyi and Shinji finally arrived in Tokiwa City, but they were stopped at the intersection by Kunsha.

"Two children, please show your ID cards before you can pass." Miss Junsha said politely when she saw Qingyi was dressed luxuriously.

Qingyi understood immediately and quickly took out the Pokémon encyclopedia and handed it to Miss Kunsha. When Shinji saw this, he also took out his own Pokémon encyclopedia.

Miss Junsha took the two Pokémon encyclopedias and checked them to make sure that the identity information matched. Then she returned the Pokémon encyclopedias to Qingyi and Shinji and let them pass.

Skipping this little episode, Qingyi and Shinji's purpose was clear, and they headed straight for the Pokémon Center.

Pokémon Center.

As Qingyi came in, she saw Xiaozhi sitting on the bench anxiously.

After all, they were old acquaintances, so she walked up to greet them without hesitation. However, as soon as she raised her foot, she was stopped by Shinji who was standing beside her. He looked at her in confusion and asked, "The front desk is over here, where are you going?"

Qingyi signaled Shinji to look in the direction of Xiaozhi with her eyes, and whispered in his ear, "See? His name is Xiaozhi. He's an old acquaintance of mine. I met him at summer camp when I was six years old."

Shinji followed Qingyi's line of sight and saw a boy about Qingyi's age sitting on a bench with his head down. He should also be a rookie trainer.

Because he was lowering his head, half of his face was covered in shadow, so Shinji couldn't see what he looked like. However, he could feel the decadent aura emanating from him. He must have suffered some kind of blow.

Shinji thought so and withdrew his gaze.

Then, Qingyi lowered her voice and said, "Since we have met, we are destined to meet. I will go and say hello."

Shinji whispered, "I'll go with you."

Qingyi nodded without thinking, and the two of them walked up to Xiaozhi.

"Long time no see, Xiaozhi." Qingyi raised a bright smile, like the warm sunshine in spring.

Xiaozhi raised his head when he heard the voice and looked at the very familiar smile, which seemed to dispel the haze in his heart.

"You are... Qingyi?" Xiaozhi stood up and asked in surprise and hesitation.

An old friend whom he hadn't seen for many years suddenly appeared in front of him. Xiaozhi felt a little embarrassed and had mixed feelings when he was in such an embarrassing situation.

"Guaranteed genuine." Qingyi still smiled.

Watching this scene, Xiaozhi was a little dazed, his thoughts drifted back to the day four years ago, the same warm smile, the only difference was that the innocent little fairy back then had grown into a graceful young lady, while he himself had not changed at all, still so reckless, causing Pikachu to get seriously injured.

Thinking of Pikachu who was still receiving treatment in the treatment room, Xiaozhi felt a surge of self-blame.

Qingyi saw that Xiaozhi looked unhappy. She had guessed the reason, but she couldn't say it out loud, so she pretended not to know and asked, "Xiaozhi, what's wrong with you?"

When Qingyi asked this question, Xiaozhi seemed to have found a good opportunity to vent his emotions, and he told her all about his miserable experience.

Qingyi has been spoiled since childhood and grew up in great pampering, and has never suffered any hardship.

After listening to what Xiaozhi said, she felt that he was indeed a bit miserable, but she could not empathize with him. She could only comfort him dryly, "Xiaozhi, don't blame yourself too much. Pikachu is so strong, he will be fine."

Shinji is not someone who can comfort others, and he is always cold to everyone except Qingyi, so he just stood beside Qingyi and watched them quietly. Besides, he was not familiar with Xiaozhi, so he would not come forward to talk.

With the comfort of an acquaintance, Xiaozhi felt much better and choked up, "Qingyi, thank you."

Then, Xiaozhi noticed Shinji standing next to Qingyi and asked Qingyi, "Qingyi, who is this?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you." Qingyi slapped her head when she heard Xiaozhi ask this, then pulled Shinji and said to Xiaozhi in a gentle voice: "Xiaozhi, this is Shinji, a good friend who grew up with me. Now we are traveling together from Kanto."

In order to prevent Xiaozhi from asking too many questions, Qingyi simply explained everything in a few words.

"Hello, Shinji." Xiaozhi nodded and greeted Shinji.

"Hello." Shinji nodded lightly and stopped talking. This was Qingyi's friend, and he only said two words to give face to Qingyi. If it was someone else, he would just nod and get rid of him.

Xiaozhi is Qingyi's old friend, so when he greets Shinji, no matter how taciturn Shinji is, he won't ignore him. Moreover, at this time, Shinji and Xiaozhi have just met, and there has been no conflict, so Shinji will naturally maintain the most basic courtesy to Xiaozhi.

Seeing that Shinji had a cold expression on his face and it was obvious that he didn't want to say more, Xiaozhi also sat down silently, still worried about Pikachu in his heart.

Miss Joy was currently healing Pikachu. Even though it was already dark outside, they couldn't wander around the Pokémon Center without Miss Joy. They had to wait for Miss Joy to come out and take them to the rest room. So Qingyi and Shinji could only sit on the bench and wait quietly like Xiaozhi.

Not long after, another girl carrying a bicycle ran into the Pokémon Center.

The bicycle was pitch black, like a fish bone that was about to fall apart, and it was obviously burned.

The girl has an oval face, emerald green eyes, short crooked orange braids on her head, and a yellow suspender summer suit with blue shorts.

Qingyi blinked when she saw this. It was really hard for her to imagine how Xiaoxia could carry the burnt bicycle on her shoulders and run all the way to the Pokémon Center. Didn't she care about her image at all?

Qingyi, the little fairy who attached great importance to her own image, did not understand but was extremely shocked.

Xiaoxia panted, and after a quick glance, she found the culprit who had ruined her bicycle. She walked up to Xiaozhi with a fierce look on her face, "You are here!"

Xiaozhi also recognized Xiaoxia and the bicycle he borrowed. Looking at the bicycle that had become as white as charcoal, he looked embarrassed.

"Give me back my bike. I'm telling you, I won't let you go for what you did to my bike. You must give it back to me!" Xiaoxia yelled at Xiaozhi.

Then, as she was talking, she wasn't paying attention and her head became heavy, she lost her balance and fell to the ground with a bang. The bicycle, which was already on the verge of falling apart, was completely smashed to pieces.

When Xiaozhi saw Xiaoxia fall, he reached out to help her up, but Xiaoxia slapped him hard, "Don't touch me!"

Xiao Zhi felt guilty for destroying someone's bicycle. He didn't mind being slapped. He spoke in a lower voice, "Don't be angry. I'll find a way to compensate you!"

"Compensate? How are you going to compensate? Can you afford it?" Xiaoxia looked at Xiaozhi with contempt, her tone full of disbelief.

It's not that she looked down on Xiaozhi, but Xiaozhi looked so disheveled and his family didn't seem to be wealthy. You know, her bicycle was a limited edition. She persuaded her three sisters for a long time and agreed to a series of unequal treaties before her sisters agreed to buy it for her. But who knew that it was destroyed after just a few days of riding.

"No matter what, I will compensate you." Xiaozhi looked at the closed treatment room and continued, "But now is not the time. My Pikachu is seriously injured and is receiving treatment in the treatment room."

Misty is a girl who loves Pokémon very much. When she heard that Satoshi's Pokémon was injured and was being treated, her attitude quickly changed from tough to soft. Her eyes flickered a few times, and she no longer pressed Satoshi aggressively.

"Ding~"

At this time, the lights in the treatment room went out, and Miss Joy came out pushing Pikachu. Xiaozhi and Xiaoxia immediately surrounded Pikachu and looked at him with concern.

Qingyi and Shinji also walked over silently, wanting to see how Pikachu was recovering.

Xiaozhi looked at Pikachu's weak appearance, his eyes slightly red, and he felt very distressed.
