There seems to be something wrong with these Pokémon

Not long after, Joey came over with the somewhat timid Happiny.

Joey tried to calm the panicked Happy Egg and stood in front of Du.

"As a nurse at the Pokémon Center, you left alone at a critical moment. You should know the consequences, Happiny."

Hearing the man's cold voice, Happiny looked around and lowered his head silently.

"Ji... Happy Egg it——"

Shuo Gu Ye, who couldn't bear it, just opened his mouth but was interrupted by Du raising his hand.

"According to the Pokémon Center Management Act, you will be dismissed from your position as a nurse at the Pokémon Center, and your graduation certificate from Chandler Academy will also be revoked."

Watari looked at the almost shapeless hat on Happiny's head and gave the order while suppressing his sympathy.

"Joy."

"Give this child another chance." Joey stretched out his hand and protected Happiny behind him.

"I can understand what Happiny did. He chose to go out alone to face danger in order to save more Pokémon."

Sakuya Ye also stood in front of Happiny.

Du stared at the two of them in silence.

After a stalemate of about three or four minutes, Joey pursed his lower lip as he looked at the pair of pupils that did not show any fluctuation.

"How cruel... Happiny chose to do this out of her love for the profession of nurse."

Crystal tears hung on Joey's eyelashes.

Happiny bit his lips as he looked at Joey who was crying with his face covered.

After a moment, it raised its hand and took off its swallowtail hat, which was so tattered that no red cross could be seen.

Just as its hand was about to touch the golden egg hanging in front of its chest, which was the certificate of graduation from Chanel Academy.

"stop!"

Watari looked back and saw Amaru running towards him, panting.

Behind him, countless police officers were chasing his back.

The police officers never expected that such a round and weak-looking body could burst out at such a fast speed.

They couldn't catch up even if they ran themselves to pieces!

"You can't do this!"

Amaru forcefully inserted himself between Watari and Happiny, "The Alliance can't do this to it!"

Du frowned and cast a questioning look at the police officers beside him.

A tall and thin figure squeezed out from among the panting police officers, and at the same time dispersed the police officers gathered there.

"I'm sorry, Senior Du, he was a little emotional..."

"I'm so excited!"

Ah Wan turned around and pointed at Takumi with a thick neck and cursed, "Others are fine, but don't you know how much effort Happiny has put in for the Pokémon in the forest?!"

"Open your dog eyes and watch!"

He turned around and hugged Happiny, who was standing there in a daze, "Overdrawing your strength is already very harmful to your body, and you were forced to evolve by the E-type machine..."

He stared at Du with red eyes, "As the king of Kanto, can't you see that the size of Chansey is more than one size smaller than the normal Chansey?!"

"If it hadn't run away privately, it wouldn't have encountered this situation."

Ah Wan felt a sharp pain in his heart due to Du's cold words.

"Why do you think it ran away?!"

An angry Ah Wan pointed at Watari's nose, "It's all because of you cowards! What a useless alliance! We must make the Pokémon Center nurses take risks to rescue innocent Pokémon!"

"Hey you--"

Takumi pulled Amaru hard but he was thrown away.

"Did I say anything wrong? Huh?!"

In a trance, Awan seemed to have returned to the forest full of death and despair.

He slowly raised his trembling arms. At that time, Vulpix had not yet closed his bright eyes forever.

"Where is the Alliance when all the Pokémon are eagerly waiting for the doctors and nurses at the Pokémon Center?"

"In the end, no one asked for anything more. All they wanted was medicine!"

"Where's the medicine?!"

Memories and reality flashed before his eyes, his vision was blurry and his voice was nasal.

"In the end, in the end, all I got was the medicine he sent."

Ah Maru grabbed Takumi's clothes and said, "Where's the Pokémon Center? Where's the League? You who didn't put in any effort, what right do you have to blame Happiny who worked hard to complete the mission?!"

"You can only talk without any pain in your back, what else can you do?!"

"Pokémon League?"

He sneered with the corner of his mouth.

"It's just a group of——"

Ah Wan was startled, and the smell of medicine interrupted his unfinished words.

His dirty clothes made the boy's newly changed clothes look messy again.

But Shuoya Ye didn't care.

He simply covered Ah Wan's mouth with his gauze-wrapped hand and stared into his eyes.

Through those light gray eyes, he saw the despair, pain and self-blame hidden deep in them.

Ah Wan, wearing a white coat, knelt on the cracked ground, and there were fallen trees everywhere.

In this battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder, he was the only one left to face death alone, witnessing the departure of one life after another.

There was nothing he could do.

"That's enough, Amaru."

Shuoya Ye shook his head gently, his eyes softening.

"Your heart has never thought of it this way. These are just angry words."

"You are just too tired. So tired that you can only feel the existence of life when you say those hurtful words and see the disgusting eyes of others that are enough to pierce your heart."

Ah Wan's nose felt sore, and he felt as if thousands of questions were stuck in his throat and he could no longer utter them.

Even his shoulders, which had been strong all the time, suddenly collapsed.

Maybe someone will remember it now.

Repeatedly squatting and standing to treat, carrying Pokémon that weighed from one to two pounds to hundreds of pounds, and constantly cheering for the Pokémon...

Ah Wan persisted in this mentally exhausting and complicated work for a whole day without complaining about the hardship.

He is also a hero worthy of everyone's admiration.

"You should rest, Amaru."

The moment Sakutani Ye finished speaking, Awan's legs suddenly lost strength.

His knees collided with the hard floor and the boy supported himself on the ground with his hands, tears streaming down his face.

"Mr. Amaru..."

Joey walked out from behind and bowed to Awan and Happiny, who was kneeling beside Awan and patting his back gently, in front of everyone.

"On behalf of the Pokémon Center, I sincerely apologize to you."

Joey straightened up, but still kept his head down.

"But... I want to explain to Happiny and Chandler that it's not that the Pokémon Center didn't want to go to support you, but shortly after you left, a Pokémon riot broke out in the Pokémon Center, and we couldn't take care of the distant places because we were too busy to do so."

"I can prove it!"

Fujino Sakura, who had washed her face on the way back, happened to see Amaru's outburst and finally got a word in.

"If Miss Joy hadn't made those crazy Pokémon lose their ability to fight, I'm afraid the whole city would have fallen!"

For a moment, the conference room fell into a long silence.

"Very good, it seems I don't need to say anything more."

Du broke the silence and stretched out his hand in front of Happy Egg.

"Give me back the golden egg."

"why?"

A sound as thin as a mosquito's buzz squeezed out from between Ah Wan's lips.

"Why not give it another chance..."

Happy Egg tremblingly took off the golden egg pendant from her neck, placed it in her palm and stared at it for a long time.

Finally, she made up her mind and put it into the man's palm.

"Because it's a nurse at the Pokémon Center."

Watari put his fingers together and put the golden egg back into his pocket, "Pokémon are selfless, but trainers are not."

Joey squatted down and took Happiny's hand.

With tears in her eyes, she said word by word, "Take good care of yourself. Don't tell anyone that you are a nurse at the Pokémon Center in Crimson City. From now on, forget about this identity and live a good life."

"Shiba." Du said to the man who was sitting farthest away and didn't say a word, "Take it away, go out the back door, don't alarm others."

Erica leaned close to Shuoya Ye's ear and explained softly.

"Although the Pokémon Center did not cause too many casualties under Joey's control, there are still some unfortunate Pokémon that left us forever."

"Their trainers are very sad, and in order to divert their pain, they turn their attention to the Pokémon Center."

She shook her head slightly, the ends of her hair brushing against her cheeks.

"A Pokémon Center's Chandra appeared in the drone's sweep of the forest."

"So... Happiny was used as an outlet for their anger."

Shuoya Ye couldn't understand this behavior at all, and couldn't help but murmur, "Why?"

"To make themselves feel better." Erica smiled bitterly, "They now all agree that if the Chanel can stay in the Pokémon Center, perhaps their Pokémon will not leave forever."

"So get out of here."

Du waved his hand, "Whether you want to find a trainer or return to the wild, it's up to you, but never show up at the Pokémon Center again..."

He glanced at Shuoya Ye and added, "Except for daily treatment."

Happiny seemed to understand everyone's good intentions.

Although it was extremely reluctant, it still took the first step towards a strange life.

Following behind Sheba's broad back, stepping on the shadow.

One step, two steps, three steps...

It was just like when he first entered the Pokémon Center.

Holding Joey's hand, stepping on the shadows that merge into one under the lamp.

Three steps, four steps, five steps...

Although I am still full of anxiety and uneasiness, maybe the weather will still be good tomorrow?

Happiny turned around and took one last look at the Pokémon Center, as if he wanted to engrave it in his mind forever.

This is where it took its oath.

This is where it used to work.

This is where it lived.

This is its home.

but...

It's time to say goodbye -

"wait wait wait!"

In the midst of a dazzling array of colors, a figure firmly ran out from the crowd, running towards him.

Happiny was distracted for a moment, standing there staring at Amaru who was holding something in his hands.

"This... This is a swallowtail hat that I folded myself."

Amaru gently placed the swallowtail hat in his hand on Happiny's head.

The place where the "Red Cross" was originally printed was replaced by a cute graffiti.

It is two round balls close together, raising their hands together.

"Because Happiny was trying to protect everyone, that's why the swallowtail hat was destroyed in the forest..."

Ah Wan's earlobes felt hot, and he continued under Happiny's shining gaze, "So, I think as a hero who protects everyone, you deserve something!"

"Though... I'm really sorry that I couldn't help you keep your job at the Pokémon Center."

There was a flash of disappointment in Ah Wan's eyes.

As an informal Pokémon doctor, he naturally knew what an honor it was for their profession to be able to work in a Pokémon Center.

But thinking of the next words, he quickly mustered up his fighting spirit again, took a deep breath and looked at Happiny who seemed to be waiting for something.

"Happilyn, can I invite you to be my nurse?"

Ah Wan spoke each word seriously, hoping to convey his determination to it.

"Although I'm sure I can't do it for you like Miss Joy--"

Before he could finish his words, Happiny hurriedly raised the egg from the pocket in front of his belly and took out a round Poké Ball from his pocket.

Seeing Ah Wan's stunned expression, he stuffed the Poké Ball into his arms and flew over.

"W-will you follow me?"

The sudden happiness almost made Ah Wan dizzy. It was not until Happiny pressed him down and nodded continuously that he came to his senses and wiped away the tears that had fallen without him knowing.

"Okay! I will definitely not let you down, Happy Egg!"

Behind each man and Pokémon, a group of people were stacked together, watching this scene.

"Ah~ What a happy ending!"

Fujino Sakura held her face in her hands and said, "No matter how it changes, Happiny can always find its own doctor."

"It's still a problem of the alliance after all—"

Facing the murderous gazes from Sakutani Ye and Fujino Sakura, Kitazawa Reisuke raised his hands in surrender and sighed.

"my question."

"A combination of an irregular Pokémon doctor and a fired nurse?"

Shuoya Ye nodded lightly and smiled.

“Maybe there will be some unexpected sparks.”
