Pokémon Legends Ash

Today Xiaozhi slept until he woke up naturally, but he was startled awake from his sleep several times.

But his memory before waking up was vague, and Xiaozhi didn't know why he woke up. Because of this, Xiaozhi fell asleep in a daze several times and didn't wake up until noon.

"Pichu...Pichu-pi!"

Pichu had dark circles under his eyes and looked very unhappy. Xiaozhi didn't dare to provoke him because he knew that Pichu's appearance was inseparable from him.

If he hadn't been unable to sleep in the middle of the night, waking up and falling asleep several times, making Pichu feel like he couldn't sleep or not sleep, the other party wouldn't have become like this, so it was a normal reaction to have a little resentment towards him.

After changing clothes, Xiaozhi went downstairs with Pichu, who looked as resentful as a little wife.

Hanako is not in a particularly good mood today, probably because she hasn't fully digested the news that Xiaozhi brought her yesterday.

Although Xiaozhi and Pichu are the same, everyone has to look forward. Even if it is not visible on the surface, the two are very sad in their hearts now, but they turn the sorrow into appetite and hide everything in their actions.

"I'm stuffed."

"Picchupi~"

Xiaozhi and Pichu put down their dishes and chopsticks and put them in the sink.

"Pichu and I are going to Professor Oak's place. Bye, mom."

"Skin~"

Hanako didn't respond to Xiaozhi, but just nodded woodenly, agreeing with Xiaozhi and Pichu's departure.

Seeing that Hanako agreed, Xiaozhi and Pichu ran away from home and ran towards the direction of Oak Research Institute. However, even if Hanako did not agree, Xiaozhi and Pichu would find an opportunity to sneak to the institute.

Inside the research institute, Xiaozhi pushed open the door and walked in.

Professor Oak was in the lobby on the first floor. Various books were scattered around him. Some of the pages had turned yellow and looked quite old.

"Oh? Xiaozhi, are you here to see Xiaomao? He's in the innermost room on the second floor."

Professor Oak raised his head and pointed upstairs, then lowered his head again and began to grope in the pile of books.

"Skin~"

Pichu jumped into the pile of books and hid his body among them, as if he wanted to play hide-and-seek with Xiaozhi. However, Xiaozhi didn't have this idea and walked forward to lift Pichu onto his shoulders.

"Dr. Oak, what are you looking for? Let me help you."

"Ah, then help me find a book called 'The Relationship between Pokémon's Sleeping Posture and Mood'. I can't find it after searching for a long time."

"Really? Pichu should come and help too."

Xiaozhi put Qingqing on the pile of books and slowly started to look through them. However, Professor Oak had taken out a lot of books. Xiaozhi felt that he had already looked through many books, but there were still many left in front of him, as if there would not be any less.

Walking around in the pile of books, Xiaozhi felt for the first time what it was like to travel in a sea of ​​books. The hard corners of the books bumped against his body, and although he would not be seriously hurt, the pain from time to time made him very irritated.

However, Xiaozhi still calmed down and felt the power of knowledge with Pichu.

After searching for a while, Xiaozhi finally found the book "The Relationship between Pokémon's Sleeping Posture and Mood" that Professor Oak needed among the messy pile of books.

If there is a next time, he will never take the initiative to help Professor Oak find books again. This is really too torturous.

The Pichu's head was stuck in the gap of the book. If it could speak at this time, it would definitely think so.

"Professor Oak, please check if this is the book."

"Hmm? Let me see..."

Xiaozhi watched as Professor Oak took the book, opened it and read its contents carefully. The more he read, the deeper his frown deepened.

The longer Professor Oak looked, the faster Ash and Pikachu's hearts beat, for fear that the other party would say that this was not the book, and then they would have to continue looking.

"Ugh………"

Is it difficult...

Hearing Professor Oak's sigh, Xiaozhi was mentally prepared. As soon as the other party opened his mouth to speak, he would turn around and continue looking.

"Ah... this book... is what I wanted, but the content inside doesn't seem to be related to my research. But thank you anyway, Xiaozhi."

Xiaozhi, who had already turned around and was about to continue flipping through the book, turned his head back, an uncontrollable smile on his face, his lips curled up into an arc.

"It's okay, Professor Oak. As long as it's what you want, Pichu and I will go find Xiaomao first~"

"Skin?!"

Xiaozhi pulled Pichu, who was still in the pile of books, and quickly fled the first floor hall while the other party was looking confused, and went to the second floor at the speed of light.

Following Professor Oak's instructions, Xiaozhi walked along the corridor to the end of the second floor and entered the innermost room.

With a creak, the shaky door swung open like a clam.

It was Xiaomao who appeared in the room. He was sitting alone on the sofa in the room with a large 4K LCD TV in front of him.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xiao Mao couldn't help but turn his head and look back.

His eyes were shining, as if he was expecting something. But after seeing Xiaozhi, the light in his eyes disappeared without a trace, and he turned his attention back to the latest show on TV.

It was a scientific research and exploration program. Xiaozhi only took a quick look at it and lost interest. To him, only the Pokémon battle program was more interesting.

"Xiao Mao, why are you alone? Where's Xiao Lan?"

"Xiao Lan...Xiao Lan is gone..."

Boom! The sudden news hit Xiaozhi and Pichu's heads like a bolt from the blue, and wisps of black smoke floated from their burnt hair.

"Pi...Pichu..."

Pichu lowered his head and seemed to be recalling some unpleasant memories.

"Gone? When did it happen? How could it be so sudden without informing me?"

Xiaozhi looked very excited, but there was still a trace of rationality in his mind, otherwise he would have knocked Xiaomao to the ground and questioned him.

"That's a long story, but where's Xiao Ai? Why can't I see her?"

Just when Xiao Mao wanted to say something, he found that there seemed to be someone missing behind Xiao Zhi.

"Xiao Ai... Xiao Ai is gone too..."

"Leaving? Where to? Xiaolan went to Chengdu, what about Xiaoai?"

Xiao Mao was confused, but he seemed to have guessed what was going on, and Xiaozhi also found out about Xiaolan.

Xiaozhi told Xiaomao again the news that Xiaoai had passed away, so as to prevent him and Xiaomao from accidentally communicating with each other again.

I just said something that was not the same thing, but it unexpectedly merged together. It not only brought trouble to myself, but also to others. It was totally unexpected.

"Really? Xiao Ai she..."

Xiao Mao didn't know what to say. He remained silent, and all the words he wanted to say turned into a sigh.

"Ugh………"

Ash sat down next to Maou, with Pichu between them.

"But you said Xiaolan went to Chengdu? Why? There's no news at all."

"It seems to be due to her mother's work. I'm not sure. She left so suddenly. Although I saw her for the last time, I didn't say anything."

"By the way, she asked me to give you this letter. She originally planned to hand it to you personally, but when she went to your house, Aunt Hanako said that you went to see Xiao Ai."

That should have happened yesterday. Xiao Ai's news made us sad. Mom should have forgotten about it.

Xiaozhi took the letter from Xiaomao's hand, but didn't intend to open it immediately. He put it in his pocket.

After collecting the letter from Blue, Xiaozhi stood up and wanted to leave. The scientific research and exploration program that Xiaomao was watching was really not to his liking. Instead of staying here, he might as well go home as soon as possible to watch his favorite Pokémon battle program.

"Then I'll be leaving first, Xiao Mao."

Xiao Mao said "hmm" without turning his head, his eyes fixed on the TV program in front of him.

Xiaozhi took Pichu downstairs, and when passing by Professor Oak, Xiaozhi asked him for a copy of "Pokémon Basics".

This book records all kinds of Pokémon information, including attribute restraint, Pokémon habitat, ecological environment, etc...

Although Xiaozhi cannot guarantee that he can learn all of them, he will try his best.

After returning home, Xiaozhi took out the envelope from his pocket, swallowed, and opened it with trembling hands.

This is what was written in the letter.

Xiaozhi, when you see this letter, I should have already boarded the train to Chengdu.

Because of my mother's work, I have to leave you. I hope you don't forget me and come to find me when you become a trainer.

I will come to you too. By the way! I heard that the three major players in Chengdu will be different. I will definitely choose the most powerful one when the time comes!

When we meet, I will beat you and Xiao Mao to a pulp, hahahaha~

There are so many things I want to say that I can’t even put them all in this letter, but there is one thing I must say to you.

Xiaozhi, please come to my side.

That was all that was in the envelope, but Xiaozhi could tell that she had a lot more to say.

In fact, he also had a lot to tell Xiao Lan, including the news about Xiao Ai. He was at a loss when the other party left so unexpectedly.

But after reading the letter, he made up his mind to work hard in special training and go to Chengdu to find Xiao Lan later.

[Xiaolan left unexpectedly. Xiaozhi will study hard and train from today. What will be waiting for him next? Please look forward to the next chapter... To be continued...]
