Pokémon: The Climb

After walking out of the slums, Yang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't find anyone following him.

This boss can see his depth, but Yang Yan cannot see the depth of his boss, which makes him always feel a little worried in his heart.

Fortunately, Yang Yan's decision was right. The transaction amount of 20 was not enough for someone like him to take risks.

Back on the street, Yang Yan no longer had any worries, because he was leaving the city soon and would most likely never come back again.

Opening the navigation, Yang Yan prepared to go to the station.

After buying a ticket bound for Manjin City in an hour, Yang Yan sat on the platform of the station and waited for the train to arrive.

At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Yan arrived at Manjin City smoothly.

It is indeed a luxurious metropolis. Whether it is the rows of high-rise buildings or the bustling traffic, it is not comparable to any city that Yang Yan has visited before.

Yang Yan opened the navigation and started searching for Kudoji's home.

It took a lot of effort to find the place.

"No. 3, Unit 206, it seems this is the right place."

Yang Yan rang the doorbell.

"Hello, is anyone here?"

A woman's voice came from the room: "Who is it?"

Opening the door, the woman looked at the boy in front of her and tried hard to remember which family the child belonged to, but she never did.

"Child, who are you looking for?"

Yang Yan looked at the haggard-looking woman in front of him. She was a little older than his mother, but her hair was already gray-white.

"Hello, aunt, I'm here to deliver Kudoji's relics."

Haruhiko took out Kudoji's backpack.

"This is?!" The woman snatched the backpack: "This belongs to my A Zhi. What did you just say, A Zhi's relic?! A Zhi is dead? A Zhi..."

The woman's tears began to flow out uncontrollably.

At this time, the woman's husband, Kudoji's father, who heard the noise, came out.

He also saw the backpack in his wife's hand. Although he was extremely sad, he still endured the pain in his heart and asked Yang Yan to come in first.

The man comforted his wife first, and then said to Yang Yan after her mood stabilized a little:

"This little brother, can you please tell me how you found Aji's relics?"

Although Yang Yan didn't want to tell the truth about the trial, Kudoji's notes in his bag contained relevant matters, so he couldn't hide it.

Just when he wanted to talk about being brought to the island by Lugia, Yang Yan suddenly found that he could not say a word with his open mouth!

It's a very uncomfortable feeling when you want to say something, but your throat seems to be blocked and you can't make a sound.

Yang Yan thought to himself, what is going on? Why can't you say it?

Could it be that Lugia had tampered with him?

But he was not helpless: "Uncle, there is a notebook in Kudoji's bag. After you read it, you will be able to understand the experience before his death."

Hearing this, the woman quickly started taking things out of her bag.

Soon they saw Kudoji's urn and a black record book.

Suppressing the grief in her heart again, the woman opened the notebook and wanted to read it with her husband.

At this time, Yang Yan thought in his heart: Lugia won't let me tell me the relevant things, it doesn't matter, can it also erase the information recorded in the notebook in the space bag?

But it really works!

After flipping through the notebook, the couple looked at each other, and then looked at Yang Yan with doubts on their faces.

The man said: "Although we can learn some information through this record book, but..." The man turned the notebook to Yang Yan: "Why is it intermittently?"

Yang Yan looked at the modified information in the record book and was shocked: "Lugia is indeed a first-class divine beast, and he can even do such a thing!"

Lugia refused to say it, so Yang Yan couldn't explain this kind of thing clearly. In desperation, he could only say: "This was the same when I saw it. I don't know why he wrote it like this."

"Is that so?"

Although the man was still confused, he didn't think about Lugia or Haruhiko, because there were no traces of modifications on the notebook, and the handwriting was indeed Kudoji's, so they could only acquiesce. This fact.

Judging from the limited information they learned, Kudoji went to a rocky area with a very harsh environment. In the end, he died of regret without going out even after the Pokémon was seriously injured and died.

"By the way, this is Kudoji's last surviving fire elf." Yang Yan took out the fire elf's elf ball.

It was impossible for Yang Yan to tell anyone about the axe-splitting mantis, so another meaning of his words was that the flying mantis was dead.

The man took the elf ball and released it. They recognized that it was Kudoji's fire elf.

But seeing the fire elves' godless state at this time, they instantly thought of themselves.

After the child disappeared, their appearance from the initial worry to the current state of no hope is so similar to that of the fire elves!

The fire elf saw the two people and recognized them as the parents of its trainer. It called them hoarsely twice, and then walked to Kudoji's urn.

The woman couldn't bear it any longer. She picked up the child's urn and the fire elf and burst into tears.

Some of the men were so sad and speechless when they saw this scene.

Yang Yan couldn't bear to see such a sad scene, so he stood up and said, "Uncle and aunt, the things have been delivered. It's time for me to leave."

The man wiped the tears from his face. He knew that the couple was not in the mood to entertain Yang Yan now, so he could only say: "Thank you for sending Aji's things back."

"Uncle, you're welcome. I don't think any trainer who is traveling would stand by and watch something like this happen to him." Yang Yan walked towards the door and gestured: "You don't need to send him off. Please spend time with your child." Bar."

Walking downstairs in the community, Yang Yan found that his mood was still affected by Kudoji's parents.

"Without the help of the axe-splitting mantis, wouldn't I be able to get out?"

Yang Yan doesn't know.

But what is certain is that without Ax Mantis, he would still be struggling to survive in the trial space.

Kudoji's parents are just like other parents in the world who have lost their children due to travel.

This is the reality of this society!

For the first time, Yang Yan felt the deep malice in this world.

You can't change it,

You don’t know how to change either…

Is it wrong to pursue your dreams?

Is it wrong to work hard to climb up?

But is it worth paying for it with your life?

Regardless of whether it was in his past life or this life, Yang Yan, who had never struggled at the bottom, couldn't answer it.

The only thing he knew clearly was that he would find a way to survive.

The prerequisite for living like a human being is to stay alive!
