Pokémon: The Climb

But after just a moment, Yang Yan suddenly laughed: "Why are you being so serious? Yashu's story is quite exciting. I'm still waiting for the follow-up."

"Why did I suddenly have the illusion that I was facing a big shot...?"

Jiumei looked strangely at Yang Yan who picked up another piece of barbecue, and it was sizzling as if he was really listening to the story attentively. No matter how he looked at it, he was still the same Yang Yan she knew.

"It seems like it was my misunderstanding."

Yang Yan casually threw down the finished sticks, picked up another one, and said while eating: "You said you don't want to be a trainer anymore, I guess you don't want to be a breeder either, so what are you going to do when you go back? ?”

Seeing Yang Yan's sudden lack of composure, Yashu couldn't figure out Yang Yan's thoughts for a moment, but he still answered Yang Yan's questions seriously.

"The alliance has given me a large amount of compensation. I plan to use the money to start a small business. In the future, I will probably be like Jiumei and will never be exposed to a dangerous combat life again."

"It's good to be in business, so I wish you can make a fortune in the future and revive your family!"

Yang Yan raised the cup containing the drink and drank it in one gulp.

Yashu was stunned for a moment, as if he suddenly understood something, and smiled: "Okay!"

At the same time, he raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it in one gulp.

"By the way, Sister Jiumei, you said that if you want to open a flower shop, you should use the compensation provided by the alliance. What standard does the alliance provide for this compensation?"

As early as when he met Fujita, Yang Yan knew that there was such a thing as compensation, but he didn't understand what standard it was based on. He will also have to struggle in the league system in the future, so he wants to know about it in advance.

Jiumei explained: "The alliance will compensate you 15 yuan for the sacrifice of a high-level Pokémon. In addition, if the number of sacrifices is more than 3, you can buy a good-level Pokémon from the alliance at half price. Limited to races; in addition, you can also purchase Pokémon of designated races at market prices, with no more than average qualifications and no more than 3 in quantity."

Yang Yan thought for a moment and nodded: "The alliance is still very sincere."

The compensation price of 15 is certainly not as much as the money they spent to train the Pokémon, but 15 is enough to buy one of most common starter Pokémon available on the market. If it is of average race and good level, Qualifications can be purchased.

After a great battle in the alliance, hundreds of Pokémon were sacrificed, so it was already a good price to pay.

At least there is enough capital to start over.

For those who sacrificed more, more compensation was given to them. Good level can be any race, half price, almost equivalent to half sale and half free. General qualifications can specify a number of no more than 3 specific Pokémon. Yang Yan can see at a glance that these conditions are used by these trainers to rebuild of the team.

Sometimes people are like this. Without experiencing something, it's difficult to recognize some facts. For example, Gao Liu is now planning to give up his specialization, and Shouzhu is planning to specialize in the insect type. After these people realize something, some will choose to change their future plans, and this compensation from the alliance is given to them to help them rise again faster. help.

Kumi sacrificed 2 Pokémon and could receive 30 in compensation. This amount of money may not be much in the eyes of trainers, but it is already a lot in the eyes of ordinary people. It is more than enough to at least open a flower shop.

Yashu received a compensation of 45 yuan, which was enough to start a small business.

After chatting for a while, everyone felt that it was time to end.

Yang Yan picked up the cup and said: "Everyone, it's not easy to get to know each other. If you encounter difficulties in the future, just ask and I will try my best to help!"

Jiumei: "Then I won't be polite to you."

Gao Liu: "Wait for me, I will catch up with you and beat you severely!"

Song Ming: “I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future!”

……

More than a year seems short, but it is enough for things to change.

When I first arrived, I was high-spirited, but when I returned, the road ahead was unclear.

Life is like a city without signboards. Somehow, you will suddenly end up on an unfamiliar street.

The turbulent crowds, the roaring carriages and horses, the dazzling array of shops, and the rows of high-rise buildings are both fascinating and confusing.

People standing at the crossroads are faced with different choices with unknown consequences. Countless choices will lead to different futures and draw different pictures of life...

Life is like a naughty husky, elusive and constantly interesting, that’s why it’s interesting, isn’t it?

……

As Yang Yan packed his things, he waved to his companions. Although it wasn't a real goodbye, there was still an unspeakable feeling of departure lingering in his heart.

Because he understood that from now on, he and they would basically be people in two different worlds. After returning to Kanto, there will be less and less contact, and in the end it will be difficult to have intersections...

After packing his things, Yang Yan did not go back, but walked to the railing and put his hand on it casually.

There were ripples crossing the blue sea from time to time, and the sound of gulls chirping reached his ears. He suddenly felt that it was the right time to smoke a cigarette.

Although he is still underage.

"Want a cigarette?"

Yang Yan turned his head hastily, with a trace of embarrassment on his face as his feelings were revealed.

But it was quickly replaced by surprise.

"Lord Akagi, why are you here?"

Akagi held the cigarette in his hand and puffed out the smoke awkwardly. As if he suddenly remembered something, he smiled and said, "I almost forgot, you are not old enough to smoke yet."

Yang Yan looked at the slumped boss in front of him who was full of energy and contradiction. If he hadn't seen his face, Yang Yan thought it would be impossible to connect the person in front of him with the decisive and resolute Chimu in his impression. together.

"Is the price of losing a Pokémon so high? Can even Akagi change so much?"

"I came to the deck in front of you," Akagi pointed to the other end of the ship: "It's over there."

"Although you are not close, I still heard a general outline of the conversation between you."

Only then did Yang Yan remember that there was indeed a person coming to the place Akagi pointed to before, but it was estimated that none of them recognized it as Akagi.

"Are you wondering why I'm like this?" Akagi walked to Yang Yan's side and lightly lit the cigarette held in his right finger. The ashes fell into the sea and disappeared in the sea breeze.

"I am no longer a member of the military, so you don't need to call me 'Sir' anymore, because I am no longer your superior."

"Not in the military? Is it because you are not strong enough?"

Why would the alliance do this? Akagi worked hard and earned a life for everyone at the cost of all the main force dying in battle. Is this the result he got in exchange? Yang Yan felt worthless for him.

"Maybe, but that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that someone is responsible for that thing."

"Although the price was that I was transferred out of the army, my position was promoted one level, whether it's merit or demerit, haha..."

Yang Yan didn't speak anymore because he understood.

"What you said before was very good, it reminded me of my past self..."

A trace of complexity flashed in Akagi's eyes, and finally he patted Yang Yan on the shoulder: "Keep working hard!" Then he turned and left.

When Akagi's back was about to disappear, Yang Yan couldn't help shouting: "Sir, you have remembered it, do you really want to throw away your past self?"

……

Akagi actually wanted to tell him that sometimes hard work may not determine your own destiny.

But Yang Yan wants to say that if you don't work hard, your destiny will not be determined by yourself.
