Pokémon: Standing at the Silver Conference at the Beginning.

"Thank you for your painting, Mr. Kazama!"

Xiaozhi and Sirona couldn't help but sigh as they held the finished paintings.

This uncle who calls himself "The Hand of God" is not just a skilled person.

"Hahaha, you're welcome!"

Uncle Kazama smiled cheerfully and said, "Consider it as a return gift for helping Sakurai-chan."

"That child had been living in an orphanage all his life. Later, he became good friends with the Sakura Treasure in the forest, so we decided to adopt him."

Uncle Kazama put the packed easel on his back and shook his head helplessly, "But I'm obviously living a hard life, how can I have extra money to raise Pokémon? That's why I often see her selling the flowers she picked near the pedestrian street!"

I see…

No matter in which world, there will always be people who work hard to dream of a wonderful life even though life is not easy.

As Xiaozhi was thinking this, Sirona took out a Poké Ball from somewhere and gave it to Uncle Kazama.

"Then please give this to the little sister just now, and tell her that I like this bouquet of roses very much. When she becomes a trainer, she can use this to subdue Sakura!"

Uncle Kazama was stunned for a moment, then he took the Poké Ball and expressed his gratitude to them with a smile on behalf of little sister Sakurai.

"Our beloved Miss Champion has shown compassion!"

Xiaozhi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and couldn't help but joked.

However, Sirona just smiled without saying a word, holding the rose and picture frame as if they were treasures, and happily led Xiaozhi out of the park.

It was a wonderful and unforgettable day.

……

"here it is?"

Xiaozhi stood at the door of a Japanese-style tavern and looked at Sirona in confusion.

No way, are you going to take me drinking?

Ah this...

"Oh? Oh, I almost forgot that you can't drink alcohol at your age!"

Sirona seemed to have suddenly remembered something, but she looked at Xiaozhi, who was almost as tall as her, with a teasing look, "How about we go to another place? You naughty brother-master."

Okay, okay, so this is a provocation, right?

Sirona, you have become childish...

"No, it's nice here!"

Xiaozhi pushed the door open and walked in.

He was not provoked; he was simply tired of sitting and didn't want to walk anymore.

"Oh yeah, if you're drunk, I'll carry you back."

Sirona covered her mouth and smiled, then followed Xiaozhi. The two of them found a corner and sat down.

I think you are playing with fire...

Xiaozhi glanced at Shirona, whose mouth was almost stretched to her ears. She no longer looked like a goddess.

However, Sirona was very happy. She suddenly raised her arm and shouted, "Boss, two glasses of draft beer!"

"okay!"

A deep voice came from the direction of the counter, and a muscular old man straightened up, smiled and waved over here.

Obviously, this should be someone who knows Sirona.

In this world, places like taverns are considered "late-night snack stalls", so there are not many people during meal times.

After Xiaozhi sent a message to Xiaoguang and Lila that they were having dinner outside, the strong old man came to the table with two large glasses of beer.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but when he gave the beer to Shirona, he handled it gently, but when he gave it to Xiaozhi, he hit it with more force, causing some of the beer to splash out.

"Ah, sorry sorry!"

Could you please be more perfunctory in your apology?

Xiaozhi complained in his heart and smiled helplessly.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa Shigong has watched me grow up since I was a child. I guess he's a little uncomfortable seeing me suddenly bring my boyfriend here."

After the old man left, Sirona clasped her hands together and looked at Xiaozhi.

"Ah...I understand..."

Ok?

"Did you miss a word just now?"

Xiaozhi blinked his eyes and said, "What boyfriend? A male friend, right?"

However, Sirona had the same expression as him, "Really?"

Okay, now you're asking me a question.

Xiaozhi fixed his eyes on the large beer mug, "Come, let's celebrate our... uh, reunion. It's all in the beer!"

"Pfft~"

Sirona was grinning so hard that her teeth were not visible, and she never got tired of teasing Xiaozhi.

Because in her impression, Xiaozhi is obviously not very old, but he always looks very old, which makes her want to tease him.

After half an hour,

Xiaozhi looked at the two empty beer mugs, then looked at Shirona who was lying limply on the table, and silently put her mug on his side.

That's it?

Although this cup is not small, it only holds 1L of draft beer.

"You can't drink but you're still trying to be brave. I'm curious about what you drank when you came here before."

Xiaozhi propped his chin with his hand and looked at Sirona's profile with a smile.

Perhaps she felt his gaze, and Shirona opened her eyes dazedly, her fair face flushed.

"Stinky brother, master..."

"Hmm? I'm here."

"Master, how...how do you view me?"

This question stumped Xiaozhi.

"Didn't you call me Master?"

"When we were in the forbidden land, I saw you wanted to become stronger but were in trouble. I was thinking about it and couldn't help but want to help you!"

But Xiaozhi knew that even without his help, Sirona's achievements would not change.

He is not sure about their current relationship, but he feels that it should be a relationship of both teacher and friend.

However, these were not the case in Sirona's eyes. "...?"

what?

Xiaozhi didn't hear clearly, "What? What did you say?"

Slowly, Shirona stretched out her arm and grasped Xiaozhi's sleeve, raising her pair of charming eyes.

“…Can’t she be my wife?”

At this time, the occasional noise from scattered guests could be heard in the tavern, but in this corner of the tavern, it seemed as if time had stopped.

Xiaozhi stared at Shirona in a daze. The latter suddenly came to her senses, let go of his hand, and woke up immediately!

"I, I...what did I say?"

Sirona turned around quickly, holding her head.

How to do how to do?

At this moment, Shirona was in shock, and her brain, paralyzed by alcohol, could not function at all.

Immediately, a feeling of dizziness came over her, and her two pink lips were immediately pursed together!

"Uh-huh..."

I'm going to vomit!

"Wait, hold it in, let's go to the bathroom!"

Xiaozhi quickly stood up and supported her.

But the next moment...

"No...I can't help it!"

Oh my god!

Just like that, the date that was originally going well ended in a mess with Xiaozhi vomiting all over himself.

Fortunately, Shirona had Garchomp with her, so Xiaozhi didn't have to worry about her on the way back.

Just before leaving, the old man in the tavern looked at him with some unfriendly eyes.

When we returned to the Pokémon Center, Hikaru and Lila were already resting.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Xiaozhi lay down on the bed, but he was destined to be unable to fall asleep.

“What a sin…”
