[Pokémon/Pokémon] Past, present and future

The melodious and soothing music in the restaurant was still playing. Music that usually relaxes people could not relieve Suzuki's tension at this moment.

Ever since her badge accidentally dropped to the ground, the customer in front of her who had met her once had been in a strange silence.

Am I doing something wrong?

It's just that something accidentally dropped on the floor. It shouldn't make you feel bad instantly, right?

If this affects the dining mood of customers and leads to complaints and salary deductions, that would be terrible!

Although she could get nearly 300 Pokédollars from a day's work, she didn't actually save much money because she had four mouths to feed.

It's better to say that if you don't work for a day, you will have no money to buy Pokémon feed.

I have become a migrant workerjpg

Today is the first time I have worked in the front office since I started working this time - I used to be responsible for washing dishes in the dishwashing room. Today, because several part-time waiters in the front office did not come, there was a vacancy. It happened that the store manager saw that she was diligent and diligent, so He was transferred to the front office.

I was working fine in the dishwashing room, but when I arrived in the front office, something went wrong on the first day. It was so unlucky! ?

"I'm really sorry just now. If the sound of it falling on the ground affected your mood, I apologize to you."

Suzuki chose to speak to break the silence.

Incidentally trying to save her salary.

"That badge is yours, right?"

"Yes" "Crack!"

Not knowing why, Suzuki nodded blankly. Unexpectedly, before the words could even be finished, the woman in front of him immediately stood up and raised her arms high.

The crisp sound immediately attracted the attention of others.

By the time Suzuki reacted, he had already received a slap on his left cheek. Pain and numbness were intertwined. His pride immediately sent a "fight back" signal to his brain.

Anger and dissatisfaction rushed into his heart instantly.

She reached out and grabbed Ada's collar and pulled it downwards, forcing her to lower her height and get closer to her. Then she made a fist with her right hand and swung it out.

This punch was unceremonious.

Of course this is almost a subconscious action.

"I subconsciously returned it because I felt humiliated."

"jiaro!"

Just when both parties were furious and watching the scene become chaotic, a big green snake released itself from Ada's Poké Ball and separated the two of them with its long and thick body. Then it He yelled urgently at his trainer, hoping that she would calm down.

"What's going on?" The store manager hurried over, drove Suzuki away, and comforted Ada.

Although the anger was still there, Suzuki, who still had sense, left the front office in order not to lose his job.

She simply opened the back door and walked out, leaning against the door to adjust herself.

Suzuki was glad that although his self-control had weakened a lot, it still existed.

When she becomes hypomanic, her inner aggression becomes stronger.

For example, the punch that I subconsciously returned before. Before her illness or when she was not experiencing hypomania, her first reaction would usually be to question.

Not long after, the store manager came out to reassure Suzuki, saying that her wages would not be deducted and that he hoped she could continue to work here.

"Xiao Mengzi makes people feel comfortable when she smiles. As a front office waiter, it can add a lot of points to improve the overall impression!"

She said again.

"Thank you."

Suzuki replied with a slight smile.

She had heard it from the store manager countless times that her smile made people feel good.

Of course, she treated it all as a flattering compliment.

I don’t know if it’s because she works more efficiently, so the store manager treats her better than others.

She is affectionately called "Little Yumeko" and is occasionally given as a gift when paying her wages after get off work.

For example, snacks, and medicine for injuries after knowing that she was a trainer.

When Suzuki returned to the front hall, Ada had disappeared.

Probably the communication went smoothly and then they left.

I don’t know what that little thing is worth getting angry about.

Before she had time to think about it, she saw other guests waving to her, so she quickly walked over.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, four Pokémon came to the door of the restaurant on time to wait for Suzuki to finish work. Seeing Suzuki and the store manager walking over together, the two little ones immediately came forward to greet them, except for the mandible ants and the gophers who were prohibited from entering by Yumeko because they would damage the floor.

Even though he knew that Suzuki Yumeko was not his trainer, the same appearance still gave Ibrahimovic a lot of intimacy.

"It's very cute. Are these all Yumenko's Pokémon?"

The store manager was obviously immediately attracted to them.

"Yes."

"It's been really hard for me to raise four Pokémon by myself." The store manager changed the subject and mentioned what happened a few days later, "It's very popular these days to attract customers by offering discounts or free meals for winning battles. Our store There is also this plan, but there is a lack of resident trainers to take over the battle. The salary of resident trainers will be higher than that of waiters. Does Xiao Mengzi have any intention in this regard?"

"Ok, of course ok! No problem at all!"

When Suzuki heard that "the salary will be higher than that of a waiter," Suzuki, who was short of money, immediately patted his chest and agreed.

Since the store manager always asked her to smile more, and the waiter at the front desk was supposed to smile, she forgot to adjust her external personality for a while.

It wasn't until he exchanged "See you tomorrow" with the store manager and saw the surprised expressions of the four Pokémon that Suzuki realized the problem. He quickly stopped his smile and blushed in embarrassment: "What, what's wrong? What's so good about it?" of."

When she placed the Pokémon in the Pokémon Center for dinner, she quickly finished her share, and while they were still eating, Suzuki came to the wild forest.

She spread her hands, the metal badge reflecting in the moonlight.

The forest is especially quiet at night.

This badge is definitely not a good thing.

Logically speaking, no one would lose their temper just because something fell on the floor.

So maybe it's because other holders of the same badge have done something bad?

The person who claimed to be early seemed to have said that this was the badge of their future team?

The name of the organization was easy to remember. She didn't remember the boy's name because of her poor memory, but she did remember the name of the organization.

In any case, the Future Team is probably not a good organization. In order not to involve more trouble in the future, it is better not to carry it.

However, since there is a possibility of misjudgment, I will hide it in the wild for now.

With this in mind, Suzuki put the badge into a small box of about the same size. After confirming that no one was around, he dug a hole in the open space and put it in. Then he flattened the soil to make it look as inconspicuous as possible. different.

In order to prevent herself from finding it later, she took pictures of the surrounding environment with her mobile phone before leaving.

Suzuki, who was in a hurry to rush back, didn't realize that the surrounding trees could be seen everywhere in the forest, and whether or not he took photos would not help the place.

When Suzuki went to work in the store the next day, a middle-aged man was following the store manager towards the main entrance holding a small blackboard. Seeing her coming, the store manager smiled and nodded at her.

Suzuki glanced at the blackboard. On it were written in highlighter pen an attractive slogan and a discount after winning.

“If you win one game, you’ll get a 9% discount, if you win two games in a row, you’ll get a 5% discount, and if you win three games in a row, your order will be free!”

The word "free of charge" is written in particularly large letters.

This discount can be said to be quite severe.

It seems that the store manager is indeed quite confident in her, so she needs to be more serious in giving orders!

If you lose in a row, you will definitely be replaced.

It's best to give her opponent two wins at most, since Kapok and Gopher are actually her only Pokémon.

Of course, just in case, she asked Ibrahimovic to show off the moves she had mastered last night.

Although Suzuki wanted to use the query machine to check directly, since there was no Eevee's Poké Ball, this idea had to be abandoned.

She doesn't have much hope for Ibrahimovic - judging from other people's research online, Ibrahimovic is usually kept as a pet.

What's more, the only move displayed by this Eevee that can be learned through upgrading, "Lightning Flash", is also of a low level.

Speaking of upgrading, she thought it was just like what was said in the posts she occasionally saw in the past. Once the level reached, she would naturally be able to master the moves.

But after checking the information, Suzuki learned that moves cannot be learned instantly once the level is reached. It is just that as the level increases, the energy that Pokémon can store and use will increase, making it easier to learn moves.

Therefore, it is also feasible to learn moves in advance through exercise.

What surprised Suzuki was that among the moves Ibrahimovic used, there were two moves that she had not seen on the encyclopedia.

Black crystal shaped ice and colorful striped tornado

Is this some kind of combination move developed for the sake of splendor?

Suzuki tried searching on the search engine, but did not find any useful information.

Suzuki had no choice but to temporarily put aside the nth doubt that had arisen since she came to this world, and planned to let Kapok Ball solve the battle as much as possible.

Without the ability to use Magnitude, her gophers don't have much fighting power.

It seems that I have to put learning new moves on my agenda when I go back tonight.

"How are the Pokémon doing?"

The store manager asked before opening the door.

"no problem."

Suzuki agreed.

"That's good. As for the referee, my husband happened to have learned about this before, so I asked him to help."

After shaking hands with her, the store manager's husband placed the blackboard next to the store entrance. As the store's resident trainer, Suzuki found a seat at the bar facing the door and sat down. He turned on his phone and searched for various products. A combat strategy.

Although she did not forget to read Pokémon-related information during her spare time, she had hardly done any actual combat this week, so it was inevitable that she would lack practical experience.

Suzuki, who was strapped for cash, didn't want to spend any more money on medicine for injuries.

As for why you don’t go to the Pokémon Center for free treatment?

Except for her, no one really thinks that there are exactly the same people in every city. Isn't it really weird! ?

Not just Kanto, every city in every region has the exact same Joey, and he's not a robot.

She would rather spend more money to buy medicine for her injuries than go.

At least she would never want to do it until she knew the actual situation that she could accept.

Fortunately, while she was a resident trainer, the store manager would provide her with free medicine for injuries.

Not only can you battle and train Pokémon, but you can also get wages and receive free treatment.

Isn't this a great job! ?

"Xiao Mengzi, a customer asked to challenge you."

Suzuki looked up and heard the sound and saw the store manager standing by the door waving to her, gesturing for her to come out and fight the boy who was waiting outside.

The first battle as the resident trainer is about to begin.
