[Pokemon] Sycamore

"This... want to give it to me?"

After taking the ticket from Dr. Omu and looking at it, Xiaotong's face was full of surprise.

"Yes, in addition to the Pokémon itself, the trainer's relaxation is also very important."

Stretching out his hand to stop Xiaotong who was about to say something else, Dr. Ohmu said without refutation: "I know what you want to say. Staying with your friends is just for rest. I don't object, but this is a good opportunity to be called Isn’t it a good choice to relax in the most beautiful city in the world, the water city, Odomare?”

"Xiaotong, please don't refuse. Zhenghui and I are busy with research and can't even get out. Xiaozhi is still challenging the Orange League, not to mention Xiaomao who just said he wanted to practice and disappeared without a trace, so here you go It’s the most suitable.”

"Perhaps there will be an incredible encounter waiting for you in that beautiful water city."

Dr. Omu's last words gave Xiaotong a rare hesitation.

No matter how strong Xiaotong is, she is still a young girl in her prime. Who can not long for beautiful things?

So Dr. Ohmu continued to persuade: "Don't think that I can't see that I have been with you for so long. You are actually very reluctant to part with Salar, aren't you? How about taking this opportunity to change your mood?"

"Is it, is it so obvious?" Xiaotong touched his face and said hesitantly.

She thought she hid it well.

Little did Xiaotong know. In fact, her friends had already come to the same conclusion as Dr. Ohmu, so they clung to Xiaotong even more these days. Of course, they hoped to slow down her self-concealment. of low mood.

Not only did Xiaotong devote himself to them, Lucario and the others also cared about Xiaotong in their own ways.

"Okay! This matter has been decided! Just leave!" After that, Dr. Omu didn't give Xiaotong a chance to react. He turned around with his hands behind his back and ducked into the research institute, disappearing from Xiaotong's sight.

"...Thank you so much, Dr. Omu." Xiaotong solemnly held the ticket and thanked her in a low voice.

"Chengdu place... just happens to be the last stop before challenging the Chengdu Alliance."

......

A quick trip doesn't require too much luggage.

The waves reflecting the blue sky hit the cruise ship and turned into waves of snow-white spray. The long-winged birds were soaring in the endless sky in groups, seemingly surrounding the large cruise ship and heading towards the destination.

Odomare, an isolated island located on the southwest coast of the city, is a small city full of canals. The famous waterways are intricate and intricate, adding a different kind of interest to the entire city. The traditional means of transportation—— Gondolas, also commonly known as gondolas, are a must-experience experience for every visitor here.

Taking a gondola ride through the waterways and visiting the antique street scenes and characteristic buildings is an itinerary that all tourists cannot refuse.

However, this is not what interests Xiaotong the most.

"Latios and Latias, I really want to see it with my own eyes~" Putting his hands on the railing of the plywood and blowing the sea breeze, Xiaotong felt that it was somewhat different from the sea of ​​the Orange Islands.

What she held in her hand was a guidebook introducing the water city of Odomare.

Regarding the legend of Latios and Latias, Xiaotong had already collected various introductions about the Water City from the Internet before setting off. More than the city itself, Xiaotong hoped to be as good as Dr. Ohmu said. As I said, it’s a secret encounter with a legendary Pokémon.

It's been a long time since I traveled alone, and it was a lot quieter around me, which made Xiaotong feel a little uncomfortable, but she quickly adjusted back.

As the cruise ship moved on, Xiaotong's purpose this time was gradually revealed at the other end of the horizon, showing off its beautiful figure under the sunlight.

"Indeed, it's so beautiful." Xiaotong murmured and looked at the water city that was getting closer and closer, and Xiaotong's mood became more expectant.

The ship was about to dock, and the tourists on the cruise ship gradually gathered near the entrance and exit, including Xiaotong.

There are many tourists carrying large and small bags, and there are also a few who are bringing their families. Compared with the crowd of people laughing and laughing, Xiaotong is alone and sandwiched between people, as quiet as if he exists in another time and space. .

Perhaps because of her eye-catching appearance even if she was doing nothing but standing quietly, coupled with her outstanding temperament that was naturally formed after traveling and a series of battles, the passengers who approached her subconsciously lowered their temperament. The volume of the conversation was so loud that some guys were even eager to come forward and strike up a conversation, but they couldn't help but give up after seeing Xiaotong's expressionless and indifferent look.

Compared with other people's thoughts, Xiaotong is not very aware of the impact he has caused.

Although she didn't like the noisy environment, Xiaotong didn't complain. Who asked her to take the Volkswagen cruise ship that she won through a lottery? This situation was within her expectation, and she was not someone who couldn't endure hardships. The delicate eldest lady, anyway, the situation will be much clearer after getting off the ship.

With this mentality, after waiting for a while, it was finally her turn to disembark.

Plaza Sant'Odomare is connected to the port with the most developed transportation in the water city. It is also one of the most important hubs on the island. Many travelers use this station as the starting point for travel.

"Huh~~~ The air is much fresher." As soon as she stepped onto the horse's head, Xiaotong stretched greatly and took a deep breath. A stream of fresh water vapor hit her nose, making her feel cool and comfortable.

"Give me, I told you to give way~"

At this moment, the commotion of the crowd on the side also affected Xiaotong. A mature and impatient female voice sounded in his ears. He was accidentally bumped by the surging crowd, causing the guide book in his hand to fall. Xiaotong frowned and looked back.

As expected, when Xiaotong saw two women wearing bold and colorful clothes, each with a pair of big sunglasses walking out of the crowd without any apology, she did not hide the dissatisfaction on her face.

"It's all your fault, Leanne~ This kind of equipment is not adjusted in advance, and we have to go out and recover it ourselves."

"Stop complaining, sister! If you want to find the treasure, this is necessary homework. If you don't help, forget it. Don't keep yelling in my ear."

"Hey, hey~ I know, I know, just keep working hard."

The silver-haired woman lowered her head and seemed to be fiddling with something in her hands. She didn't seem to want to look at the road at all, while the blond curly-haired woman waved her hands as if to shoo away flies, and her superior disregard was more plainly written on her face.

Seeing the two of them walking to the side where the speedboat was parked, Xiaotong withdrew his gaze.

There is no need to disturb your good mood for such a person.

With this thought in mind, Xiaotong bent down to pick up the brochure and quickened her pace, not wanting to stay in a crowded place.

"Well~ let me take a look." Xiaotong opened the guide book again and browsed through the unread parts at a glance.

Seeing an annual event being held now, Xiaotong raised her eyebrows in interest.

"Pokémon water race?"
