Pokémon: Stranger Things

"Don't forget to bring something! Have you remembered the place?"

In order for Chensha to have a good rest, Miss Joy, who hadn't cooked for a long time, got up early today to prepare breakfast for Chensha.At this time, she hadn't changed her apron yet, and she lay at the door and shouted to Chensha who had already walked out of the door.

"Remember it, sister, don't worry, it's absolutely safe."

Hinokigi City is just a small city in the southwestern part of the Hezhong area. Although the inscription of the town is "a new and developed city", in fact, most of the people living here are elderly people.After all, it is near the coast and has a pleasant climate, making it a good place for retirement.Since there is no elf research institute in the city, the annual elf distribution for beginners is held at the trainer school instead.

Chensha has never been a student of the trainer school, but working at the elf center makes him sometimes need to go to the trainer school to check the physical condition of the teaching elves in the school.He knew the way to school all too well.

The journey was safe and sound.In a small city like Hinoki City, such an ordinary and calm life is the most normal.Whether it is children playing on the lawn by the roadside or old people taking a leisurely walk, they are all part of the city.Dust, who was used to living a high-pressure life in the city, also feels the beauty of a slow life at this moment.

However, he noticed something that had to stop him.

An old man paced anxiously under a big tree, looking up at the top of the tree from time to time.Chensha narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction the old man was looking at, and found a puppy with brown fur tightly hugging a tree branch, trembling uncontrollably.

Even though there is no elf illustrated book, Chensha can still recognize the breed of this puppy at a glance, it is a kind of elf called Little York.This puppy-like elf is smart, docile and loyal, and many families domesticate them to accompany their children and the elderly.Even the companions of Miss Junsha in the Hezhong area are not Katy dogs, but Hayork, the evolved form of Little York.

Chensha didn't know how this little Yorkie climbed up the tree, but judging by its appearance, it definitely didn't look like it could climb down by itself.

"Old man, what's the matter?"

Chensha hurried to the old man's side and asked what happened.

"Little girl, when I was walking on the side of the road, a pickpocket cat stole my bag. Little York chased the pickpocket cat here for me, and ran to the tree...Can you help us?"

Maybe it's just that the old man's eyes are not so good.

Chensha's face is more feminine and somewhat neutral, and this old lady looks like she should be in her 80s, so it is understandable for her to misidentify his gender.Chensha didn't care about these trivial matters, he concentrated his mind again and observed Little York's condition, and found that there were still some scratches and claw marks on its body, it seemed that it had experienced a fight with a pickpocket cat.

Pickpocket cats are more sensitive than Little York, and the tree is the home of cat elves like pickpocket cats.This little Yorkie looks very thin at first glance, and its size is smaller than ordinary little Yorkies.Although these elves are brave and loyal, their high intelligence will also allow them to distinguish the strength of their opponents, thereby avoiding meaningless battles.This little Yorkie knew it was going to catch up, and no matter what, it was able to show the depth of friendship between it and its owner.

but……

Kudao Xiaobing poked the corner of Chensha's clothes, signaling him to pay attention to the watch on his wrist.Chensha glanced at the time on his watch. If he rushed to the trainer school now, he would be able to arrive at the scene before the start.

But, the old granny and her elf are also in dire need of help.

Chensha remembered his past life.In the grandmother's house, the grandmother lives alone, with only a small teddy dog ​​as her companion.Although every time he visits his grandma's house, this little dog will bark for a long time, as if he doesn't know him, but no matter what, this little dog is one of the few lives in grandma's lonely life that can bring color to her.

Lonely people need company, no matter what.In Chensha's heart, there was only one answer from the beginning.

"Don't worry, I will do my best. I will protect this child's life. Climb up the tree, Little Soldier Kudao!"

Under Dust's instruction, the Kou Dao soldier used the blade in his hand as a climbing tool and began to climb to the top of the tree where Little York was.And Chensha also rolled up his sleeves, and began to prepare the tools needed to heal the elves from the satchel he was carrying across his body.

Kudao Xiaobing knocked on the tree trunk to signal to Chensha that it had reached its position.Strange to say, Komato Xiaobing has almost never made a sound for so many years. Most of the time he used body language or made some noises to respond to Dust, or to attract his attention.This makes Chensha sometimes wonder if Kou Dao Xiaobing can't speak.

"I saw it, can you please move Little York from the branch first?"

Keeping Little York on the fork would only make his situation more dangerous.So Chensha ordered the Komadao soldiers to move Little York to a safer place in the tree.But when Komadao Xiaobing just moved towards Little York, the branch began to make a crisp sound due to the weight it bears.

"Komato, catch it in the air!"

Even if left alone, the branch will snap off in no time.Chensha quickly made a judgment, and Kou Dao Xiaobing also obeyed his order, jumped from the tree trunk, and caught Little York in the air who had started to fall.

But Komadao Xiaobing didn't have the ability to fly. Even if he caught Little York, it quickly fell from the sky because there was no place to land.

Sure enough, there is only one way...!

Apart from Chensha himself, the only person that can be seen nearby is the old lady, and he must do this.No matter now or in the previous life, he had never had confidence in his physical fitness, but at this time he still chose to use his own hands to catch the falling Komadao Xiaobing and Hayoke.The two weighed about 14 kilograms together, which made the dust that caught them kneel directly on the ground under the impact.

In the normal world, not to mention serious injuries, dislocations are unavoidable.But Chensha didn't feel a strong sense of pain, but felt a little weak.

After all, a super newcomer can easily hold a 50kg baby Kiras. Presumably, people who live with elves day and night in this world must have better physiques.

"Little girl, you..."

"I am fine."

Chensha didn't bother to correct the old lady's mistakes.Regardless of the feeling of loss of strength from his arms, Chensha adjusted his breathing and looked at the little soldier in his arms.

"Put this child down first? Please help me get some spare parts."

Komadao Xiaobing lightly jumped down from Chensha's arms, and gently placed Little York on a cloth towel that Chensha had laid out before.It has not been idle during the days in the elf center, and it is similar to Miss Joy's doll. It has learned a lot of knowledge that an assistant elf should know.It skillfully followed Chensha's request and handed him various tools for healing elves from the satchel.

After working for a long time, seeing that Little York's breathing finally calmed down and fell asleep peacefully, Chensha finally felt at ease.

"As long as you rest for a while, it will recover. Its body is quite strong."

As a doctor, he should inform the patient's family of the results after the treatment. Although he is not a doctor in this life, the old habits of the previous life are still difficult to change.

He felt his vision blurred.Maybe it took too much energy to treat Little York.

Seeing that little Yorkie's condition had stabilized, the old woman hugged her little Yorkie, shedding tears as her elf finally recovered.But she didn't regard the drowsy dust beside her as non-existent because of this.

"Little girl, I really don't know how to thank you... It seems that your condition is not very good, do you want to come to my house to rest...?"

Although Chensha really wants to accept the old lady's kindness, but remembering his original purpose of going out today, no matter how tired he is, he will always go there to have a look.Maybe we can catch up when the time comes.

"Thank you for your kindness. I still have things to do... I won't rest for now. Also, be sure to take Little York to the elf center to check after he wakes up..."

The old grandma watched Chensha staggering forward, and now he looked like a big wobbler.Komadao Xiaobing couldn't help its trainer because it was too short, but it thought of picking up the branch that Little York was lying on just now, and handed it to Chensha to use it as a crutch.

When Chensha finally reached the gate of the trainer school, it was already afternoon.A man in a white coat stood at the gate of the trainer school.

"Excuse me, sir, I'm here to apply for a beginner elf..."

Chensha was leaning on a cane with one hand, and with the other hand, he took out his own information card from the satchel and handed it to the man in the white coat.The man looked at Chensha's information card, and then carefully scrutinized his face. Maybe he couldn't believe that with Chensha's appearance, the gender column on the information card was actually male.

The information cards issued by each region have gone through layers of procedures and verifications, and there is absolutely no possibility of fraud. The only possible error is that someone uses someone else’s information card, so it needs to be carefully confirmed.

"I'm really sorry, this batch of beginner elves has been sent out, and there will be a new batch in three months."

As an elf researcher, a man naturally knows a lot about elves.He saw the elven medicine in the dusty satchel at a glance, and coupled with his state that he might faint at any time, he could easily think of the reason why he was late.It's just that the rules are set by the alliance, even if he intends to accommodate, there is no elf to give to Chensha now.

The white coat looked at Chensha again, and noticed the Judao soldier following him.This Komadao soldier may also be Dust's partner.So, he handed over the elf illustrated book of Hezhong area to Chensha.

"Although there are no elves anymore, you should take this illustrated book with you."

"That's it... Thank you for telling me about this, and I will take my leave first."

Chensha took the elf illustrated book and authenticated it with his own information card.Now that he had lost the chance to pick a beginner elf, Chensha had no reason to stay here.Feeling a little lost is inevitable.But the Komato soldier next to him raised his hands at him, waved them a few times in the air, as if using a move, and then made a funny-looking pose.It was like telling Chensha "I am also strong".

"... Thank you for your hard work. With you by my side, there will be no problem."

Seeing his partner trying to make him happy, Chensha smiled in relief.It doesn't matter if you don't have a beginner Pokémon, as long as you are with Komadao Minion, there is nothing to be sentimental about.

"Little girl."

Some familiar old voices reached Chensha's ears again.The only person who has such a voice and still calls him that is...

He looked back and saw the old grandma who had helped in the morning.

"Son, you are tired too. Come with me and let grandma treat you well."

A kind and gentle voice.Even though he didn't want to owe favors, Chensha subconsciously opened his mouth.

"OK then."
