Pokémon Zero One

Seven years later, zero-one-seven years old.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines through the window, and it falls on Ling Ying, with a kind of colorful psychedelic look.

"Ling Yi, it's time to get up and have breakfast." Xinzi shouted.

"I know." Zero shouted back while changing his clothes.

At the dinner table, the mother and daughter chatted happily. After eating, Zero One and Xinzi packed up the dishes and went out. Today she and Xiaomao Xiaozhi made an appointment to go fishing for Carp King at the lake.

"Why are you so slow?" When Zero One arrived at the lake, Maozhi and Maozhi had been waiting for her for a long time.

"Where's my fishing rod?" Zero One asked.

"Here, here you go." Xiaozhi took a pink fishing rod from his hand and handed it to Zero One.

"Thank you." Zero One took it politely.

"The time is three and ten minutes. Whoever catches more Carp Kings after three and ten minutes will get this Thunder Stone." Xiao Mao said, pointing to a green stone on the ground.

They found the Thunder Stone in the back mountain yesterday, but there was only one piece. Who would give it to?The three of them kept arguing about this, and finally Xiaomao proposed a competition to catch the Carp King. Whoever catches the most will get it.

Maozhi chose a place respectively, and Zero One walked to a place slightly far away from the two of them to fish, put a chair and bucket, sat down and swung the hook, all in one go.

Time kept passing by, the three of them kept retracting and throwing the hooks, and there were more and more Magikarp in the bucket. Just when the time was about to end, a small episode happened to Zero One.

"Pichu~" Pichu's voice came from nowhere.

Zero One looked around and finally saw a basket on the water not far from him. It seemed that it was coming from there. When Zero One saw this, he passed the fishing rod through the basket handle, and then pulled hard, and the basket floated smoothly to the shore.

Zero One quickly picked up the basket and opened the lid, only to see an injured Pichu lying inside. It seemed to be quite seriously injured.

"Pichu." Pichu saw someone and struggled to stand up.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." Ling Yi quickly reassured him.

"Pichu." But it seemed to have no effect, Pichu was still wary.

Zero One didn't care. She was worried about its injury. She tried to keep her voice as low as possible: "Pichu, you are injured and need to be treated immediately. Do you believe me? I will not hurt you."

Perhaps the anxiety on her face was too clear, so Pichu gradually lowered his guard, and then fainted from exhaustion.

Zero One picked it up carefully, and then ran towards Xiao Mao and Xiao Zhi. "Xiao Mao! Xiao Zhi! Go find Grandpa Da Mu!"

"What's wrong?" Xiaozhi asked as he stood up.

"Hu~ Pichu, Pichu is injured and needs to be treated quickly." Zero One stood in front of Xiaozhi panting, with an anxious look on his face.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly." Xiao Mao shouted.

Not long after Dr. Ohki finished his work and sat down to rest, the door of the research institute was forcefully opened, and Zero One and three people came in with anxious faces.

"What's going on?" Dr. Omu asked while taking Pichu from Reiyi's arms.

Ling Yi briefly told what happened.

Ten minutes later, Dr. Ohmu took off his gloves and said to the three of them: "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with it anymore. Just practice for a while and you'll be fine."

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and had smiles on their faces.

"Grandpa Omu, can I stay with it here? I'm afraid it will be scared when it wakes up." Zero One looked at him expectantly.

"Of course, you can stay here and accompany it." Dr. Ohki touched Ling Yi's head lovingly, and then looked at Mao Zhi and Mao Zhi with a serious look. "You two go to the kitchen and get some pastries for Zero One."

"Oh." Maozhi and his wife responded obediently. It wasn't their first time anyway.

After everyone had gone out, Zero One sat on the chair next to Pichu's bed and looked at it lovingly.

"Pichu?" A few minutes later, Pichu woke up, and the first thing he saw was Zero-One's gentle eyes.

"You're awake, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Zero One asked softly.

"Pichu." Pichu shook his head.

"That's good, this is Dr. Omu's research institute, you don't have to be afraid." Zero One explained.

"Gu~" Pichu covered his stomach shyly.

"You wait here, I'll get you something to eat." Zeroichi said and left the room.

"Is there something wrong with Pichu?" Dr. Omu saw Zero One running out in a hurry, thinking that something happened to Pichu again.

"No, it's hungry. I want to get it some food." Zero One scratched his head in embarrassment.

"That's it...Xiao Mao, get some more Pokémon food from the kitchen!" Dr. Oak shouted towards the second floor.

"..." Xiao Mao had just stepped onto the first floor and had to turn around and go up again.

"Xiao Mao, please give me the pastry for Zero One. It will be faster this way." Xiao Zhi suggested.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mao stuffed the pastry into Xiao Zhi's arms, then ran up to the second floor in two and three steps, and then quickly ran to the kitchen.

A few minutes later, Zero One took Pokémon food, and Mao Zhi walked into Pichu's room together holding pastries.

"Come on, eat quickly." Zero poured the Pokémon food into a bowl and handed it to Pichu.

"Pichu." Pichu was not polite, took it and started eating immediately.

"Ling Yi, you should eat too." Xiaozhi looked at the pastry in his arms eagerly.

"I'm not hungry, you can eat." Xiaozhi's greedy look made Ling Yi feel a little funny.

"Then I'm not welcome." Xiaozhi picked up the pastry and started eating it, without any image at all.

"Look at your potential." Xiao Mao looked at him with some disgust.

For a time, the scene was very harmonious.

It was approaching noon, and Zero One and Xiaozhi had to go home for lunch. Zero One estimated that it was almost time, and said softly to Pichu: "You have a good rest here, and I will come see you in the afternoon."

"Pichupi!" Pichupi lost his composure immediately after hearing this. He quickly got up from the bed and reached out to grab Zero One's sleeve, as if he didn't want her to go.

"This..." Seeing its appearance, Ling Yi looked at Xiao Mao and Xiao Zhi at a loss.

"Zi Yi, take it back with you." Dr. Omu walked in and smiled. "It seems like this kid has fallen in love with you."

"In that case, then you can go back with me." Zero One reached out and picked up Pichu.

"Pichu~" Pichu lay docilely in Zero One's arms.

Waving goodbye to Dr. Oak and Shigechi, Zero One took Pichu towards his home.

"I just finished cooking and you came back. You are quite good at picking the time." Xinzi put the dishes and chopsticks and said with a smile.

"Hehe." Ling Yi was also amused by Xinzi's words. "We call this mother-daughter connection."

"This Pichu is..." Xinzi frowned and looked at the Pichu in Lingyi's arms.

"Oh~ That's it..." Zero Yi briefly explained what happened.

When Xinzi heard this, her eyes felt a little distressed, and her tone couldn't help but soften. "Hey~ It's really pitiful. Wait, I'll prepare food for it."

Zero One smiled and nodded, then looked at Pichu in his arms with a loving look on his face. "Did you hear that? You have something delicious again."

"Pichu~" Pichu was also happy.

After happily finishing lunch, Reiyi packed up the dishes and took Pichu out of the house. The game in the morning was suspended due to Pichu's incident, so Xiaomao proposed to restart the game in the afternoon.

"It's quite on time this time." Xiao Mao said.

"Lei Yi, here." Xiaozhi handed the fishing rod in his hand to Zero One.

"Thank you." Zero One smiled.

Just like in the morning, Ling Yi found a place to fish far away from them, put the bucket and bench, sat down and swung the hook, all in one movement.

"Pichu, if you are bored, go for a walk nearby, but don't go too far, otherwise I will worry, you know?" Zero One did not forget to lie on her head while waiting for Magikarp to take the bait. Pichu on.

"Pichu." Pichu shook his head, but after realizing that Zero One couldn't see him, he called out.

Zero One seemed to understand its meaning and smiled helplessly. "Well, just stay well."

Ten minutes passed quickly. Zero One walked towards Mao Zhi and Mao Zhi carrying a full harvest. After the meeting, the three of them counted the carp in their buckets.

"28." Xiaozhi felt that he was going to lose.

"30." Xiao Mao was unabashedly proud.

"32." Zero One innocently spread his hands towards them.

The two of them were petrified on the spot. For a moment, Xiao Mao reluctantly put the Thunder Stone in his pocket into Ling Yi's hand.

"Thank you." Zero One showed a rare playful smile.

It was one o'clock in the morning, and Zero One was still awake. There were too many things that happened today, which she couldn't digest for a while. She got up from the bed and walked to the window, opened the window, and the night breeze blew gently on her cheeks, bringing her... It felt so comfortable to pick up her soft hair.

Perhaps through telepathy, Pichu slowly opened his eyes, rubbed his eyes that were still awake, and then called softly towards her back. "Pichu?"

Zero Yi turned around, her delicate little face looked softer and softer under the moonlight, her clear eyes filled with endless tenderness, and said, "What's wrong? Did I wake you up?"

Pichu shook his head at her, then jumped onto the window sill with a bound, and then looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Zero One gently touched its head. There was endless sadness between his brows and eyes. His eyes looked blankly into the distance and he murmured: "Pichu, do you know what love is?"

"Pichu?" Pichu tilted his head and his black eyes kept rolling, obviously not understanding.

"It's a good thing not to know, because love can either fill you with happiness or make you miserable." Zero One gave a faint smile and looked gently at Pichu, who looked confused. “Love is the most elusive thing yet it makes people fall deeply into it.”

"Forget it, I tell you, you don't understand either." Zero One sighed softly, and then looked away again.

Pichu followed her eyes and looked into the distance, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness, but he didn't forget to complain in his heart: "It's okay not to sleep in the middle of the night, but it also made me depressed."
