[Pokemon] Sycamore

There was no sign... No, it was because it was too fast!

The waveguide was continuously releasing to sense the surrounding movements. Under Xiaotong's perception, a group of waveguides that was almost teleporting directly crossed the river and flashed at the corner where the gangster was trying to turn.

For an ordinary human being, not to mention the astonishing movement speed, just to cross a river that is at least ten meters long in one step... Is this possible?

However, now is obviously not a good time to dwell on such matters.

No matter what, in Xiaotong's eyes, the person standing in front of the gangster who was driven to the extreme like a mad dog was just a helpless girl.

"Get out of the way!" Therefore, Xiaotong, who had no choice but to hide himself, spoke out and tried to change the other party's decision with a lucky mentality.

However, the auburn-haired girl didn't listen at all, and even took a step forward as if to express her determination. Xiaotong looked anxious again.

"Damn it! Damn it! Get out of here!!!" The gangster, who had been tortured to the point of mental collapse by Xiaotong, saw another person blocking him in front of him. A cruel look flashed in his eyes, and he was about to approach Brown. When he was about to send a girl, he raised his movable arm and gave it a hard push.

And because of the sudden huge force, the girl couldn't help but step back a few steps. Behind her was a waterway with unknown depth. Seeing that the girl's steps were missing, her slender body was about to fall backwards and fall into the river... …

"Snapped!"

"Are you crazy?" She squeezed the other person's hand angrily, and took her eyes away from the gangster who was crawling away. Xiaotong glanced angrily at half of his body that was already leaning out of the street, and he was almost there. The girl who fell into the water.

With a strong pull of his arm, he easily dragged the person back, and then Xiaotong began to carefully look at the person in front of him.

She looks a little older than her, with her auburn hair reflecting soft light under the sunlight. She wears a light green short-sleeved shirt and a white skirt, revealing a youthful vitality.

And what makes Xiaotong strange the most is that ever since she pulled her up, this girl has been staring at her with an innocent smile without saying a word. Her brown eyes, which are slightly lighter than her hair color, flashed. , all reveal the master’s joy.

Another point that is quite inconsistent is that the temperature in the hand feels cool, not like the body temperature of a normal person... Thinking of this, Xiaotong squeezed it subconsciously and was surprised again.

Xiaotong, who realized what she was doing, was just about to let go of her hand, but was unexpectedly gently squeezed. Then, the girl's pretty face suddenly enlarged in Xiaotong's sight.

"Um...what's wrong?" He didn't feel the malice of the girl in front of him. Although Xiaotong felt a little embarrassed by the two people standing close together, he didn't break away immediately and just let the girl stick to her. Her arms were sniffing around her like small animals and looking around at her face.

Until she finally couldn't stand such an act of intimacy for a stranger, Xiaotong raised her hand to hold the girl's shoulder, and slowly but firmly pulled her away.

"Don't be like this...it's too close." He stretched out his index finger and gently tapped the girl's left shoulder to prevent her from leaning on her regardless. Xiaotong sighed, "Just now you..."

How did you suddenly appear here?

Before the words were spoken, Xiaotong saw the girl's face turn serious and anxious in an instant. He grabbed Xiaotong's hand on her shoulder, shook it, and pulled her to jog a few steps in the direction of the gangster. Then he stopped and looked at her.

"You want to catch him?"

Seeing the girl nodding seriously, Xiaotong asked in confusion: "Why do you have to stop him at the risk of getting hurt?"

Then, Xiaotong saw the girl who suddenly let go of her hand pointed at the river, and then pointed at an Italian restaurant not far away.

The restaurant was filled with the chatter of customers. At this time, everyone was not enjoying the food served on the table, but gathered in front of the big-screen TV to watch the local live broadcast.

The live broadcast on the Grand Canal was also the scene of the water race that had been disrupted.

"Pokémon water race?" Xiaotong said as he turned around and saw the girl nodding vigorously.

"You like competitions very much?" Xiaotong saw the girl Can smile and nod, and guessed helplessly: "You are angry because the competition was interrupted, and you want to catch the culprit?"

This time she not only nodded heavily, but the girl held Xiaotong's hand and moved it up and down, as if she was happy that Xiaotong could understand what she wanted to express, and the smile on her face became a little brighter.

"..."

One was smiling and the other was silent. Then, Xiaotong, who didn't seem to be planning to make any move, kindly reminded him: "Well, he has already run away. I'm afraid it's too late to chase that man now."

The next second after Xiaotong finished speaking, the girl immediately showed a look of shock. The corners of her mouth dropped, and she looked sad. Xiaotong felt that the person pulling her was not a girl older than herself, but a girl who was older than herself. A pitiful little kitten.

The girl's behavior that was inconsistent with her appearance was very much like that of a child. Her emotions and anger were all displayed on her face without even a trace of concealment, and her expression of sadness because something she loved was destroyed was heartbreaking to see.

"Haha...I know, I know, I'll just come and help. Anyway, I had this plan." He touched the girl's head as if coaxing a child. Xiaotong felt a soft and smooth feeling after taking it, which was unexpected by Xiaotong. Yes, I couldn't help but rub it a few more times. Although I felt a little bit wrong, it was more important to fulfill my promise now.

Xiaotong looked at the river, and after visual inspection, the width was barely OK, and then he took out a treasure ball and threw it upward.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~~~"

"Roar!!!"

Water splashed everywhere, and a roar broke the tranquility in the alleys of the water city. Xiaotong jumped on the back of the bent Gyarados and stretched out his hand towards the girl.

"It's not too late, let's go now."

The girl raised her head blankly, looking at the figure bathed in the sun on the back of the dark tyrant. Her body, which had been frightened by Gyarados's powerful appearance, quickly stabilized, and with one step, Taking two steps forward, her sight was filled with the girl holding her hand.

The two hands held each other again, and the girl was led by Xiaotong to a wider field of vision.

Due to the invasion of the giant monster, the water level in the waterway gave people the illusion of rising. The huge figure of the Gyarados stirred the sea water and splashed a lot of waves, and the impact was still intensifying with the acceleration of the Gyarados. It was so high-profile His behavior also attracted the attention of the public at an extremely fast speed.

However, none of these could affect the concentration of the other passengers except Xiaotong.

The girl behind Xiaotong stared at her back intently, stretched out her hand and rubbed the place that had been touched with nostalgia, and then laughed happily.

In fact, there was one thing that Xiaotong didn't guess.

Although I decided to jump out at first because my favorite water race was ruined, it was more out of curiosity about the blond girl chasing after me.

At first, he just hid and watched, but increasingly he couldn't bear the desire to contact her. The reason why he appeared in front of Xiaotong was just this simple desire.

There was no danger to herself, so she naturally followed her heart and jumped out. ?

And Xiaotong did not disappoint her. At the moment when she was about to be pushed into the water, the girl held what she wanted.

——Although she doesn't understand what it is now.

"Then, Gyarados, let's catch the little mouse that's causing everyone trouble in one go."

Calm and dazzling, with a hidden tenderness.

Looking at Xiaotong who was giving orders with confidence, it was a sight that the girl who had lived in this city for a long time had never seen in any trainer.

It made her subconsciously want to get closer, and get closer...

Like a sunflower chasing the sun.

"Huh? What's the matter? The speed is too fast, isn't it?" Xiaotong, whose whole body was frozen, stretched out her hand to hold the two white arms that suddenly came forward from behind and wrapped around her neck. The weight behind her immediately reminded Xiaotong of Those friends at home who are more clingy.

It was the first time they met, and Xiaotong was a little confused by the other party's enthusiasm, which was not afraid of anything. However, Xiaotong did not dodge such a harmless move subconsciously.

She could feel the furry vibrations behind her and the girl shook her head to show that she was fine, so Xiaotong patted the other person's arm reassuringly, "Then sit still! Gyarados, speed up!"
