Elf: I'm the only one who understands Pokémon

Hearing Wu Bai's words, Fang Zhu's hand that was looking for ingredients suddenly froze.

Break off a small piece of Jingjing honey from the refrigerator, put it in a Wubai cup, and add some water.

Fang Zhu pulled out his chair and sat opposite Wu Bai with a solemn expression.

"what happened?"

"I'm going to tell you a story again."

Wu Bai pretended to smile relaxedly, but he didn't hide anything and slowly told his story.

On the first day after arriving in the subspace, Wu Bai, like everyone else, received his initial Pokémon as he wished.

It was a kind of elf called a little sea lion. It was white and shiny, and had a small pointed horn standing up on its head.

At that time, Wu Bai looked at the little sea lion next to him, excited and full of expectations for the future.

He believed that just like Zhinao said, they would become lifelong partners.

The days that followed were normal, taking tasks, doing tasks, sleeping, and eating.

The little sea lion seems to dislike Wu Bai as a trainer. Except when doing tasks, he basically ignores him the rest of the time.

Wu Bai just thought it was afraid of strangers and firmly believed that getting along with it would be much better in the future.

Occasionally, the little sea lion will look at the jewelry in the window and be fascinated.

He will cast an envious look at the Pokémon eating a custom-made Pokémon meal in a high-end restaurant.

Wu Bai noticed its little thoughts.

Therefore, in addition to doing tasks with the little sea lions during the day, Wu Bai would also hang out in restaurants and shops at night when the little sea lions were resting, doing extra odd jobs to save money.

Finally, after more than a week of hard work, Wu Bai saved a considerable amount of savings.

"Little sea lion, I will take you to a high-end restaurant tonight to eat customized Pokémon meals~"

That day, Wu Bai excitedly announced the good news to the little sea lion.

The little sea lion, who usually ignored Wu Bai, finally looked at him that day.

The accident happened that night on the way to the restaurant.

Wu Bai just went to the toilet, and when he came back, he found someone accosting the little sea lion waiting on the seat.

It was a middle-aged woman, wearing a custom-made evening dress and not much jewelry, but they all looked expensive.

Wu Bai, who works everywhere, naturally knows this person, Mrs. Liu, who spends a lot of money in high-end restaurants and tips extremely high.

When scanning goods in stores, they are unambiguous. The waiters who count the rebates often smile crookedly.

Even Wu Bai's savings came from the man in front of him.

"Baby, do you want to consider following me? I will dress you up beautifully and feed you delicious food every day."

Mrs. Liu said to Wu Bai's little sea lion with a smile.

Wu Bai walked forward, blocking the little sea lion behind him, and then said hello.

"Hello, Mrs. Liu."

"Hello young man, are you interested in transferring this cute little Pokémon to me? I can offer you a good price."

Mrs. Liu was not polite and bluntly stated her purpose.

"Thank you for your appreciation, but I have no intention of transferring my partner, sorry."

Wu Bai also shook his head. He couldn't do such a thing as giving away his friends for profit.

The little sea lion behind was twisting violently, but Wu Bai reached out from behind and firmly fixed it on the chair.

The veins on his hands have popped out.

"Well, I never force it. If you change your mind at any time, you are welcome to come to me. I will eat here basically every day."

After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she turned around and left, returning to her seat.

The little sea lion rarely shouted loudly at Wu Bai and struggled in the direction of Mrs. Liu.

Wu Bai tried to comfort him, but in the end he tried his best, but still couldn't stop the little sea lion from making trouble.

Helpless, Wu Bai had no choice but to put the little sea lion into the Poké Ball. He glanced at the half-eaten Pokémon meal with a pity, and hurried home without having time to pack it up.

In the next few days, Wu Bai tried his best to comfort the little sea lion, but no matter how he coaxed it, it was of no avail.

The little sea lion didn't speak, and at the same time went on a hunger strike.

Seeing the little sea lion getting weaker day by day, Wu Bai finally sighed.

"Okay, I agree to transfer you to Mrs. Liu."

When the little sea lion lying on the ground heard these words, he finally raised his head and took a few bites of the food next to him.

Handing the elf ball in his hand to Mrs. Liu, Wu Bai bowed to her solemnly.

"Mrs. Liu, I'll leave the little sea lion to you from now on."

Mrs. Liu gently touched the elf ball in her hand and nodded.

"Give me your payment code and I will transfer points to you."

Wu Bai waved his hand: "No, Mrs. Liu, as long as you take good care of the little sea lion, that's enough."

After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.

It's just that his vision suddenly blurred, and he was covered in mist.

In the following days, Wu Bai secretly took a look at the current situation of the little sea lion.

It put on a huge pearl necklace, and Mrs. Liu fed the customized food into its mouth bit by bit.

Different from when he was with me, the little sea lion had a smiling face and would occasionally spin around happily.

It's doing great.

From that day on, Wu Bai gave up the idea of ​​becoming a Pokémon trainer.

It only happened three times. He was abandoned by his girlfriend once in junior high school, and now he was abandoned by a Pokémon again.

He no longer wanted to experience the feeling of being abandoned for the third time.

"That's the story. After that, I lived a life of going to bed early and getting up late, going out for shopping every day and then going home. It was pretty good, at least it was leisurely."

Wu Bai spread his hands as he spoke.

Fang Zhu was speechless for a moment.

He originally thought that Wu Bai's Pokémon had an accident while on an adventure.

Unexpectedly, it was such a sad story.

After all, he is just a 15-year-old boy. It is difficult for him to face the bloody reality and setbacks without giving up and maintain a positive and optimistic attitude.

"You... still believe me?"

After being silent for a long time, Fang Zhu finally could only hold back these words.

I am just a socially awkward otaku. Even if I encounter time travel, I don't have the talent for talking like the protagonist in novels and animations.

When Wu Bai heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then patted Fang Zhu on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"What are you thinking about? I haven't believed anything you said since I was five years old."

"Then conquer another Pokémon. Believe me, Pokémon will definitely be a companion that you will never abandon throughout your life."

Fang Zhu looked directly into Wu Bai's eyes with firm eyes.

"The little sea lion is just an example. Trust me, I will accompany you to tame an elf early tomorrow morning."

Wu Bai did not answer immediately, but looked into Fang Zhu's eyes and remained silent.

After a while, he nodded heavily and said "ok".

"Then wait for me for a while. I'll cook quickly now. You can play with Big Tongue for a while first."

Fang Zhu left the chair, turned around, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Big Tongue jumped out of the elf ball and then walked to Wu Bai.

"Porphy!"

He raised his hand full of energy and patted Wu Bai's shoulder soothingly.

"Goo-"

At this time, the sound of Big Tongue's belly sounded at an inappropriate time.

"Hahaha……"

It caused the two people to burst into laughter, and the slightly serious atmosphere just now was diluted.

A delicious dinner, both guest and host enjoyed themselves.

Interspersed with Fang Zhu’s strange words——

"I'm telling you, you are part of the divorced-engagement genre, a perfect template for the protagonist!"

"You should have said something on the spot, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Don't bully young people into poverty!"

"How is it? Isn't it very impressive?"

Facing these words, Wu Bai smiled, but felt a little nostalgic.

After all, Fang Zhu was in the second grade of junior high school when they separated.

That year, I had already heard Fang Zhu's similar second-grade words, and his ears were numb.

"See you tomorrow."

"it is good."

After sending Wu Bai away, Fang Zhu lay directly on the bed.

While eating just now, Wu Bai watched the interaction between himself and Big Tongue, his eyes bright.

This is rare good news.

Looking at the bright incandescent lights on the ceiling, Fang Zhu fell into deep thought.

"What kind of elf should I find for him?"
