Pokémon: The Climb

In a state of confusion, it stayed where it was, not knowing what to do.

It wasn't until a long time later that it slowly got up, but now it had nowhere to go. Like a homeless child, it could only drift step by step without direction...

I don’t know how far it has walked and how much time has passed. When it came back to its senses, it was standing under an orange fruit tree.

Along the way, he couldn't figure out why he ended up in this situation.

I want to cry, but I can't.

A numb feeling spread throughout the body.

"Mu Shou Gong? Why are you here?"

Tomioka happened to be walking in the orchard, and happened to see Mu Shougu standing there.

Tomioka stepped forward and said kindly: "What, do you want to eat the orange fruit above? If you want to eat it, go get it yourself. Old man, I am old and can't help you, haha."

Mu Shou Gong just stared blankly at the old man in front of him, unable to say a word.

"Why," Tomioka said with a smile, "You're not so hungry that you've lost all your strength, are you?"

Mu Shou Gong still didn't respond.

"Really, it seems that you still need me, an old man, to show you my skills."

Tomioka looked around, picked up a few small stones from the ground and held them in his hand, squinting at the orange fruits on the tree.

Aimed and missed...

"Haha, as I'm getting older, the skills I used to have perfect shots when I was young are no longer useful! Don't worry, Mu Shou Palace. Let me try it again. I promise I won't miss it again this time!"

"call out!"

This time I hit the target, but unfortunately the force was too weak and I failed to knock it down.

"Oh, what a pity!" Tomioka scratched his head.

Mu Shou Palace looked at the old man who appeared in front of him. This old man he met for the first time was obviously very old. He didn't understand why Tomioka would be willing to do such a thing for him.

Instinctively, Mu Shou Gong took three steps and two steps at a time, climbed up the tree easily, picked an orange fruit and jumped down directly, landing in front of Tomioka.

"Haha, can't you do this? Mu Shou Gong is indeed Mu Shou Gong, he is so awesome!"

Tomioka reached out and touched Mu Shou Palace's head.

Mu Shou Palace didn't react for a while. When it realized that it wanted to escape, it felt weirdly that Tomioka's hand was very comfortable.

It's a warm feeling.

It was a feeling that it had never experienced with Zhen Xiang.

Tomioka sat under the tree with Mu Shou Gong, raised Mu Shou Gong's hand, pointed at the orange fruit in his hand, and said: "Eat it quickly, fresh orange fruits are the most delicious!"

Mu Shou Gong felt that the old man's voice was very comfortable and made him feel at ease.

Pick up the orange fruit and eat it slowly one bite at a time.

"Yes, this is a good boy!"

Tomioka waited quietly for Mu Shougu to finish the orange fruit before saying: "Are you coming from the forest? Or is your trainer also around?"

Then Tomioka looked up and looked around: "But there seems to be no one around."

Mu Shou Gong didn't know what to say when he heard this, he just lowered his head blankly.

"It doesn't look like you have a trainer. So, you come from the wild? That's really rare. Did you come out alone? You're so awesome!"

Tomioka suddenly thought of his deceased children and Yang Yan. They both chose to go out to work at a young age.

The only difference is...

Tomioka said gently: "If you don't mind, you can come here often in the future. If you want to eat the fruits from the trees here, you can eat them. You're welcome!"

……

Maybe it's because I'm getting older, and I always want one more person to accompany me.

In the following time, Tomioka would take time to come to the orchard every day to see the wooden gecko and talk to it.

Mu Shou Gong has not left here in the past few days, or in other words, even if he leaves, he doesn't know where he can go.

Whenever it thinks of the scene when it was abandoned by Zhenxiang, it always feels very painful. At this time, it can only choose to use constant training to numb its heart in order to make itself feel a little better.

But what it doesn't know is that because of Tomioka's existence, it retains a glimmer of light deep in its heart and doesn't completely fall into darkness.

……

Early the next morning, Yang Yan followed Tomioka's instructions and helped Tomioka to the orchard to visit Mu Shou Palace.

In fact, even if Tomioka didn't say anything, Yang Yan couldn't let go of Mu Shou Gong.

It doesn’t take much thought to guess what the outcome will be for the Gosan family Pokémon that was abandoned by its trainer.

"Mu Shou Gong, are you there?" Yang Yan shouted loudly.

"Chamo!"

Mu Shou Gong was training in the forest. When he heard the sound, he leaped from the trees and jumped in front of Yang Yan.

"Mu Shou Gong, I think you must still remember me. I also know that you must have been having a hard time during this period. Ba Dadi has also experienced the pain of falling qualifications, so if possible, I also want to help you! "

"Chamo!" Mu Shougong just stood quietly in front of Yang Yan.

"Okay, Mu Shou Gong, you must not have completely recovered from your injury yesterday. If possible, I would like to take you to the Pokémon Center and ask Miss Joy to help you treat it. By the way, I can also ask Miss Joy if she knows anything. What do you think of the method that can help you restore your qualifications?"

Tomioka also said at this time: "Mushou Palace, just go. If you delay any longer, the possibility of your recovery will become lower and lower, and it makes me feel uncomfortable when you look so depressed every day."

If it was just Yang Yan, Mu Shou Palace might not listen to his words, but after getting along with him for the past few days, Mu Shou Palace knew that Tomioka was really good to him.

Tomioka had also noticed before that there was something wrong with Mu Shougu's body, which seemed to be stunted and a bit different.

He also speculated whether there was something wrong with Mu Shou Gong's qualifications, but when he asked, Mu Shou Gong never said anything.

But this does not mean that Mu Shou Gong will not have ideas.

It hadn't thought about it carefully before. In the past few days, it had repeatedly recalled what had happened before, and realized that Zhenxiang must have given it something bad before.

In this way, the state of its body can be explained clearly, and it finally wants to understand why Zhenxiang abandoned it.

When it figured this out, it was really painful. It never thought that its sincerity had never been valued by Zhenxiang.

Fortunately, during this period, Tomioka would often visit him and enlighten him, so he didn't let him sink, so he trusted Tomioka very much.

So it planned to listen to Tomioka's suggestion and follow Yang Yan.

"Chamo."

Seeing Mu Shou Gong nodding, Yang Yan and Tomioka finally showed smiles on their faces.

……

"Miss Joy, please take a look at this wood gecko." Yang Yan pointed at the wood gecko following it.

Joey said: "Okay, trainer, please wait a moment."

Joey took Mu Shou Gong to the back and came out about twenty minutes later.

After coming out, Joey looked angry and said to Yang Yan: "Are you Mu Shou Gong's trainer? How could you give Mu Shou Gong something like that?!"

Yang Yan opened his mouth to explain: "Miss Joy, I am not Mu Shou Palace's trainer."

"Huh?" Joey looked embarrassed, and even the lucky egg standing next to her covered her eyes.

At that moment, Yang Yan told Miss Joy about Mu Shou Palace.

"So that's it. This kid is so pitiful that he met such an irresponsible trainer. Alas." Joey knelt down and gently stroked Mu Shou Gong's head.

"Chamo." Mu Shou Gong was also very unhappy. In the treatment room just now, Joey told him about his physical condition. Only then did he fully understand how much Zhen Xiang had done to him.

"Miss Joy, I would like to ask if there is any way you can help Mu Shou Gong?" Yang Yan asked.

Joey said sheepishly: "Well, to be honest, I can't help it. Maybe someone in the family may know, but I don't know who it is."

Yang Yan said: "Can you please help me find out?"

Joey nodded: "Okay, I'll find someone to ask later."

"That's really troubling you. Thank you, Miss Joy!"
