[Pokemon] Sycamore

"brush--!?"

The roll was too fast and the force was too strong to hold it back. Xiaotong rolled a few times as a buffer before finally stopping. After quickly getting up, what he saw was that the door was closed by countless iron railings, with dense and overlapping patterns. It leaves only a small gap that no one can get out of.

"Xiaotong! Are you okay?"

Miss Junsha, who was unfortunately trapped inside, hurriedly stepped forward to grab the iron bar and asked loudly.

And Miss Joy also gathered around, standing looking at the strange changes outside with a frightened face.

The silence of the night was shattered in an instant.

I saw that the characteristic stone path of Odomare has been changed beyond recognition.

The historic roads rise abruptly from the surface, blocking passages layer by layer.

While making it impossible for people to enter——

But couldn't leave either.

"We... are trapped." Holding the iron railing tightly and pulling hard, Miss Joy pursed her lips, changing her previous solemn expression in front of Xiaotong.

"We can't control what happened. We need to first confirm whether the power system can still operate normally and the current situation of the Pokémon in the intensive care unit... By the way! The passenger evacuation route in the event of an emergency must also be confirmed to see if there are any and The door is also blocked, Junsha, come and help!"

Immediately turning around and walking back, Joey listed the most urgent matters one by one.

"I understand." As expected of a top student born in the police academy, Junsha immediately got into the situation.

"Xiaotong, you..."

"Miss Joy!" Before Junsha could arrange for Xiaotong, the only one who was not trapped, to rush to ask for support, Xiaotong's shout made Miss Joy stop.

"My friends, could you please help me bring them out?" Xiaotong patted the dusty clothes and looked up at a location in the distance.

The Great Cathedral, which had been closed and lights out for a long time, was now brightly lit.

"Something is happening over there, I have to go see it."

Xiaotong turned her head and looked directly into Miss Junsha's eyes. "Going to the police station now will waste too much time. Besides, the chance of everyone being trapped is too high."

"Xiaotong, catch it!"

He raised his hand and grabbed his specially designed belt, which had three shrunken baby balls hanging on it.

Miss Joy returned to the fence and asked seriously: "The more tired ones are still recovering. If you need their help, I will wake them up immediately."

"No, let Bi Diao and the others have a good rest." Putting on the belt neatly, Xiaotong nodded towards the two of them and ran quickly towards the destination.

It wasn't until they were far enough away that Xiaotong's pace gradually slowed down.

"Huh..." Xiaotong breathed out softly and looked around, "Come out, Latias."

As early as at the gate of the Pokémon Center, Xiaotong felt a strong sense of being spied on, and after turning on the waveguide, she certainly knew who was watching her.

Watching with extreme eagerness.

"Woo!!!"

The illusive light in front of her eyes did not scare Xiaotong. Then she was pushed back a few steps by a huge force that rushed into her arms. However, she immediately raised her hand and touched the down feathers, which almost exploded. Latias' neck.

"What happened Latias? Mr. Bengre and Canon-"

After a pause, Xiaotong's voice dropped a few degrees, "——and... where is your brother?"

Feeling the trembling beneath her palms, Xiaotong's heart slowly sank.

......

Time was turned back to not long after Xiaotong and Kanon said goodbye.

"wu..."

"We can meet again tomorrow, don't be so depressed, Latias." Kanon looked at Latias amusedly, who could not hide his disappointment.

Staring at the tunnel Xiaotong left, Latias refused to look away.

Maybe she was expecting Xiaotong to change her mind and come back to play games with it.

The light blue jet on the side looked at the back of his sister with resentment. Latios very deliberately walked around Latias, and found that he couldn't attract the whole body behind Latias. It looks a lot grayer.

"puff!"

Seeing this, Kanon couldn't help laughing.

"My sister has made a good friend for the first time. As a brother, you should be happy for him, Latios."

The truth is that this is true, but I always feel lonely... Latios shook his head, forced himself to cheer up, walked to Latias, and supported him to make a nest on the trunk of the giant tree. direction to go.

After watching the brother and sister interact with each other with smiles for a while, Canon and Ben Gray said goodbye to them and prepared to go back to rest.

"sand……"

Canon pulled the shoulder bag over his shoulder and turned around without realizing that something had fallen from his small pocket.

Just like when I arrived, it was as if no one had ever visited, and the secret garden was silent again. ?

Almost, that's right.

“Zi…ZiZiZi…ZiZi…”

The tiny windmill in the art installation rotates in the absence of wind.

No one noticed that a small black dot was crawling in the grass, the small mechanical tentacles supported the main body, and the lens in the center was adjusting the focus.

The object of focus is preparing to rest in the thickest giant tree in the secret garden...

The setting sun slowly sank into the horizon, taking away the last trace of warmth. Instead, the moonlight fell on the water, creating sparkling waves.

Bengre opened the door to the workshop and prepared to complete the final finishing work of the day.

The tour guides of the Great Cathedral are only volunteers. Ben Gray's occupation is actually one of the few traditional gondola craftsmen in Aldomare.

Countless wood chips are scattered on the ground, and a faint natural aroma fills the entire studio. A semi-finished gondola is placed in the corner of the medium-sized space. It is just the last step to launch it into the water to carry tourists to enjoy Odoma. Everything about Ray is beautiful.

"Hey--!"

Ben Gray lifted up the workbench with the remaining scraps of wood piled aside with both hands. Being an old and strong man, he completed the action without much effort. After wiping his sweat, he turned around and was about to pick up the broom leaning against the corner.

At this time, a lavender figure was caught in his peripheral vision.

"strangeness……"

Leaning out from above the workbench to look elsewhere, Ben Gray looked at a kitten-like animal squatting on the ground in surprise.

"Are you lost?" Ben Gray muttered and was about to take a step closer.

However, in the next second, a sudden dizziness in his head made him stagger, and he weakly supported the workbench with both hands.

His body gradually slid down against the workbench. Ben Gray, who already felt something was wrong, tried his best to hold up his heavy eyelids, but he could only see the red light emitted by the gem on the sun elf's forehead.

Then his consciousness fell into darkness.

Kick...kick...kick...kick...

Unhurried footsteps appeared, and two long shadows drawn by the moonlight slowly approached.
