Gerald - Veteran forest ranger, Ibuki's father's old friend and old colleague, known as "I hugged you when you were so little, and the cute baby was still clamoring to play with the beard "The stubble uncle.

His hobby is playing with beard jazz, and his specialty is playing with beard jazz.

Blonde, blue-eyed, at the age of knowing his fate, still strong and strong, with undiminished charm-it doesn't matter that this gentleman has not yet entered our supporting role list, so don't worry about him stealing too many scenes.

You can see that his name and painting style are different from those of the protagonists.

Gerald Ben, like Ibuki's father, was a ranger from the Fiore region.But on New Year's Eve of a certain year, these two good buddies reunited after a long night of drinking, and for some reason, Yi Chui's father slapped his thigh and called out——

"Let's go, let's go to Fangyuan! I'm still young, let's go out and explore the world!"

...Poor Ibuki had just moved back to Fiore from Sinnoh with his parents at that time.As soon as the catching top was warmed up in her hand, she was dragged by her father on a whim to such a strange and distant place in Fangyuan area.

- Closer to home.

Gerrard is one of the first rangers who came to Fangyuan from Fiore, and his experience and strength are as first-class as his qualifications.Even if the forest ranger crosses the border to go on a mission, he is not counted in the establishment of the local alliance. Coupled with this incomprehensible personality, even if it is the champion of the Fangyuan Alliance, it is not easy to recruit him.

In the end, I actually saw it in this mission——Ibuki's mood is a bit complicated, and I really don't know how to face Dawu's serious and serious attitude.

As a result, Gerald reached out his hand casually and pressed it on Yibui's shoulder, and the weight was overpressed.

"The champion said that you might be suspected of something bad, and asked me if I would help you to take a look and solve it, and then I came—why, what happened to the little girl again?"

Ibuki: "...Huh?"

Gerald continued to chatter: "I told you when I was at Sinnoh - don't be too tired to take care of the little girl's family! Hey, how about it? Have you read it?" Which young man is he? Ask uncle to show you? I think Fangyuan's champion boy is pretty good!"

"...Come on, you're thinking too much!"

Yibui couldn't laugh or cry, and was a little moved after a long absence.

But she had just recovered from a serious illness, and her body was very weak. Gerald put pressure on her shoulder so casually, and it was okay for a short time, but after a long time, she couldn't hold it anymore.

Yibuki wobbled a little, as if about to fall backwards.She took a half step back to hold on, and seeing Gerald's face change, he pulled her back.

"Don't lean back, there is a hidden dragon hiding beside the tree—huh?"

Gerald frowned, his expression tinged with seriousness.

"You look so bad, are you sick?"

Route 120 is rainy all year round.

Knowing that Yibuki ran out just after the fever subsided, Gerald told her to take a good rest and not to care about anything with a serious face, then turned his head and put his assistant's coat on Yibuki, incidentally Commanding the assistant to accompany Yibuki with an umbrella, he went to find Dawu aggressively.

"—Take back the foreword, this kid can't do it!"

Yi Chuan stopped him or not, and simply didn't bother to explain.Seeing that the forest ranger holding the umbrella next to him seemed younger than himself, he smiled wryly and wanted to hand back his coat.

"Go ahead, I can do it myself."

"It's okay, it's my job." The forest ranger smiled, and pressed Yibuki's hand back, "But if you're sick, you really shouldn't come to this place—the climate here is too humid and rainy, and it's not suitable for physical recovery at all. .”

Yibuki thanked him, and stood on the spot, waiting for Dawu to remember himself so that he could assign some tasks.

...Oh, by the way, Gerald has already gone to look for Dawu, and he probably will remember himself soon.

Ibuki continued to stare at the tree in a daze.After a while, I saw the color change beside the tree trunk, and the figure of a hidden dragon appeared.

... also staring at Ibuki in a daze.

It seems that he was in a daze for too long, and was too focused, forgetting to change his color.

The forest ranger next to him holding an umbrella held back a painful smile.

When Dawu finished assigning tasks and started looking for Yibuki everywhere, what he saw was the silent and harmonious scene here.

Yibuki was wrapped in a coat that was too big for her, and the owner of the coat next to her was holding an umbrella for the two of them, and the two of them stared blankly at a chameleon that didn't change color for some reason... Oh, and then his gaze was caught by a The serious and iconic handsome uncle face occupies.

"Gerald, nice to meet you." The blond uncle briefly introduced himself and held out his hand.

Dawu returned to his senses, smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Zvoki Dawu. It's a great honor to have your help this time."

The two held hands and let go, and Gerald continued what Dawu said.

"I'm mainly here to help the child. It was not clear from the previous phone call, what exactly did the organization called the Water Fleet do this time?"

"We didn't mean to doubt Jiwang, and I hope you can help me tell her that there is no need to avoid suspicion." Dawu emphasized again before continuing to answer, "The Water Fleet attacked the Weather Research Institute and took away some data—and some data The damage was serious, and the situation was very bad. And most importantly," Dawu said with a serious expression, "we don't know why they took that part of the data. So now we must first restore and analyze that part of the data as much as possible, so that Predict the next move of the water fleet."

"That's why you brought the little girl here?" Gerald frowned.

"...I think she is probably the only one who can do it a little bit." Dawu sighed a little.

Ibuki does have experience in this area.And these experiences were all accumulated by her during the most turbulent period in the Sinnoh Alliance when Sinnoh and Sirona first took office—that represented a painful time for her in dire straits.

Yibuki's return to Fangyuan was originally for the sake of living safely under the shadow of the most stable alliance in terms of status and situation, but now she is trying to drag her back into such a muddy water...

Dawu subconsciously glanced sideways at Ibuki.The forest ranger leaned forward slightly, as if he was saying something to Yi Chui.And Yibuki had already recovered, turned her face to the side, raised her head slightly because of the height difference, her expression was always gentle.

Still harmonious.

...Suddenly a little unhappy.

Gerald glanced at him, unmoved.

"Removing the color-changing disguise in front of you is a manifestation of establishing initial trust. If you want, you can now get a little closer to that chameleon."

The forest ranger is explaining the habits of the hidden dragon to Ibuki.

Ibuki also learned similar things when he was a child, and listening to it again is just a review.Yibuki nodded seriously, and slowly stretched out his hand to the hidden dragon.

Then it touched its side face smoothly, without any warning.

Yibuki took out the umbrella he had prepared, opened it and propped it on top of the hidden dragon, rubbing its face by the way.

——It's damp, and it's rough and bumpy.

Changing Yinlong was still a little dazed, and subconsciously rubbed against Yibuki's palm.

Yibuki smiled a little, turned to the ranger and said, "It doesn't seem to have the color-changing characteristic——if I feel right, it should be an individual with the hidden characteristic 'transformation'."

The ranger also smiled: "You are much more familiar with this aspect than I am."

Yibuki rubbed the face of Bianyinlong again, seeing it puffed up its cheeks like dissatisfaction, he couldn't help laughing.
