I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

"You can also see it? I have almost no memory of that incident. If I want to talk about it, I didn't even realize that I saved a person's life. Let alone now, then I almost forgot about it after I passed through the desert. For me, it’s just a small thing like eating. Do you remember what you ate for a certain meal ten years ago? ?"

No matter how his words will affect Ma Li, what Bai Chen wants to do now is to express his current mood in words.

"If you want to talk about my attitude towards this matter, I don't have any special thoughts other than trouble."

"troubled?"

Mary showed a puzzled expression again.

It's obviously a good thing, so why bother?Ma Li really couldn't understand Bai Chen's mood at the moment.

"Of course it's a problem. Otherwise, would I still be happy or moved by this incident? Fundamentally speaking, the reason why Mr. Tiezang lives the life he is now is also influenced by me? But I don't I don’t want to affect the trajectory of other people’s lives...if it’s a good influence, that’s fine, but it’s hard to say whether it’s a good or bad influence at the moment, what do you think I’ll think?”

"......I see."

After Ma Li closed her eyes and put herself into Bai Chen's perspective, she suddenly found that the original emotion caused by this story-like drama disappeared, and was replaced by what Bai Chen said——

Troubled.

Maybe it's also because Ma Li and Bai Chen in the past have almost the same social skills, so she can understand Bai Chen's mood better.

"Now do you understand?"

Seeing that Ma Li finally had no plans to continue persuading her, Bai Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said so.

"Ah."

Even though she roughly understood Bai Chen's thoughts, Ma Li still seemed a little listless.

"But, what will Mr. Tetsuzo do next..."

As Mary spoke, she secretly glanced at the scene inside the station.

Tie Zang was still puffing out his chest, he didn't know what he was talking about, and he looked very energetic. He didn't look like an old man who didn't even have the strength to go to Feiyun City to buy vegetables.

The adventurers around him are still having different opinions, but judging from their current positions, they seem to be divided into two factions. Could it be that they are still arguing over who the trainer Tie Zang is talking about? ?

I couldn't hear what they were talking about, and I could only hear a faint laugh or two. Although it looked like they were arguing, there was no doubt that the relationship between them was very good.

"There's nothing wrong with continuing to live like this, right?"

Bai Chen didn't turn his head, just closed his eyes lightly, listening to the cheerful laughter, he said slowly.

"Anyway, in his impression, the person who saved him must not be my age now. Rather than telling him to shatter his illusions, it's better to just keep it as it is...Mr. A person who is not good at communication, right? But what is undeniable is that he does have a large number of new year friends now, right?"

"Um......"

Mary couldn't refute, she just responded so simply.

Maybe it's the same as what Bai Chen said, sometimes it's happier to treat dreams as pure dreams.

Otherwise, according to the character of the old man, after knowing that Bai Chen was the one who saved him, he would definitely follow his own will, close the station and enter retirement life.

If so, what will accompany the old man?Alone and lonely?Or is it the peace of mind and enrichment after fulfilling your wish?

After all, Mary is not Tie Zang himself, so he can only guess what he thinks in his heart like now, but if it is Mary herself, she probably hopes that this kind of life can continue, right?Maybe the old man didn't notice it himself, but in fact, a large number of people who thanked him had already gathered around him.

In the eyes of those adventurers, the image of the old man may be exactly the same as Bai Chen's image in the eyes of the old man.

Bai Chen saved the old man and is an unsung hero in the eyes of the old man.

The old man provides adventurers with a safe place to avoid sandstorms and wild Pokémon, and the old man is also a person that adventurers cherish in this area.

Maybe the era will continue to fade and change with time, but no matter in which era, similar stories will always reappear in the tide of the era in different forms. .

In every era, there are always countless images like Bai Chen and Tie Zang who helped others or provided convenience for others and then left silently.

And after they left, this kind of story and this kind of spirit started a new round of transmission and inheritance.

No one can tell whether at this moment in this inn, there will be someone who will become a hero in the eyes of others someday in the future.

Time and memory will pass away, but the spiritual content will continue.

but......

"Sure enough, it's a bit regrettable..."

Ma Li looked at Tie Zang who was still passionate in the store, and sighed regretfully, her emerald green eyes revealed a complex look.

......

335 Companionship under the Moonlight

As night fell, the desert at night seemed peaceful compared to the hustle and bustle of the day.

The cold moonlight sprinkled from the sky, covering the entire land in the unobstructed desert.The sandstorm in the morning has completely subsided with the arrival of night, and the sand dunes that have been changed by the strong wind have also been scattered in their respective positions. The sand on the post station is also in Baichen. With the help of the adventurers, the land was cleaned up.

"Haven't you come back yet..."

Bai Chen moved the stool and sat at the door, with his hands stretched into the sleeves of his coat to keep warm.

It was deep winter itself, and the desert at this time was even colder.

Although it's not time to go to bed yet, the adventurers in the station have already returned to their respective houses, nestled in the quilt and began to rest.

Although they all like to explore, they are not the kind of fanatics. Naturally, they will not venture out when the weather is bad.

"Are you expecting Mr. Keene?"

Mary was also wearing pajamas at this time, and walked out the door.But because the temperature difference between inside and outside was too big, she shivered unconsciously the moment she went out and was blown by the cold wind, and retracted her head into the neckline, leaving only half of her head to look at Bai Chen outside, and asked .

"Ah... well, I'm a little concerned."

There was worry in Bai Chen's eyes. They separated from Keen around noon, and at that time Keen obviously planned to go back to the station to rest at night, but it was already this time and he was still missing. , of course Bai Chen would be worried about him.

"Hmm... Is it because Mr. Keen has already found the ruins, or did he discover some treasure, so it was delayed?"

Compared with Bai Chen's worries, Ma Li tends to look at the problem from an optimistic perspective, or because Ma Li is unwilling to think about the bad side of things, after all, even if they are worried about Keen now, There is no way to go out to find him at this time.

"Have you found anything..."

Bai Chen didn't finish speaking, but just murmured.

To be honest, Bai Chen didn't believe what Ma Li said. Although this desert is yellow and yellow, it has attracted countless people to explore for so many years.

People's goal is the legendary relic hidden in the desert, but I am afraid that only myself and the store manager have entered the desert relic until now because of an accident... and although the relic was discovered, the relic itself was found to have After the Vulcan Moth left, no one knew whether there would be other wild Pokémon in the ruins occupying the magpie's nest and dividing that area into its own domain.

As for the treasure, it is even less realistic.

It's been so long, and Bai Chen has never heard of any treasures appearing in this desert, at most, it's just some past items that appeared from the sand driven by the strong wind.

Besides, even if it really exists, it would be the turn of the current adventurers to discover it, since it should have disappeared long ago.

"Oh... Anyway, I'm still a little worried... Mary, go back and rest first, I'll wait here for a while before going back to my room."

The last half an hour was about the same. If Keen hadn't come back during this time, Bai Chen might have to contact the adventurers here to see if they could go find him together.

"..."

Mary tilted her head and didn't reply. She just turned around like this and seemed to be walking towards the direction of the room.

The tranquility was restored again near the gate. Although it was cold waiting outside the gate, but for some reason, such coldness and loneliness gave Bai Chen a feeling of nostalgia.

It's always been like this the night before.

Sleeping in a tent or sleeping bag under the firelight, looking at the stars in the suburbs, reviewing the experience of the day, and making plans for the next day.

Day after day, all the time, that's how most of his travel memories are.

But now that he started to travel again, Bai Chen's state of mind was different from before. Perhaps it was because Ma Li was with him now?Two people are still better than one person, at least when you are alone, you will feel lonely, but it will not appear when you are two people.

Sitting at the door for a while, Bai Chen rested his head on the door, still immersed in his alone time, waiting for Keen's return.

"Tread~step~"

But then, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind Bai Chen, he turned his head to look, and it turned out that it was Mary who should have returned to the room a minute ago, but now she came out again for some reason.

And just like himself, he brought over the stools from the dining room and wore a coat on his body.

"It's cold and boring here, wouldn't it be better to go back to your room?"

Although he suggested so, Bai Chen's tone was not so firm.

Rather than persuading, he seemed more like complaining.

"That's why I came here."

Ma Li also heard that Bai Chen didn't mean to drive him back, so she put the stool beside Bai Chen and sat side by side with him.

But Ma Li didn't seem to be used to the temperature at night in the desert in winter. Even when she sat down, her body was still shaking, which was in stark contrast to Bai Chen on the other side who looked like he had nothing to do.

"What are you saying...it feels completely illogical."

Although he was still chatting with Ma Li, Bai Chen's consciousness was already a little erratic, and he didn't know whether it was because he was sleepy due to being too tired or because he was immersed in the past and hadn't come back yet.

"Why is there no logic?" Mary retorted, and said slowly: "It's because it's cold and boring here that I want to come and accompany you. It's better for two people to sit here than to sit here alone. Bar."

Ma Li's words were purely from her own thoughts, not because of Kameizlei's entrustment to her before.

To say that the only influence that Kamizlei had on her was probably letting Ma Li know about this fact——Bai Chen was more fragile than she appeared on the surface, even if she was very tired, she liked to solve all the troubles by herself, and The trouble wasn't necessarily his own.

Bravery, this word is used on Pokémon masters, and anyone who changes it will feel that it is against the law. After all, this title represents the top among all Pokémon trainers, and it represents the strongest human beings.

It is obviously inappropriate to say that such a person will be brave.

But Ma Li understands that the biggest difference between Pokémon masters and ordinary trainers is only the talent in Pokémon battles. In other fields, Bai Chen is just like ordinary people, maybe even not as good as ordinary people.

"Is that so?"

Bai Chen glanced at Ma Li consciously, and after seeing Ma Li showing a smile to him, he turned his head away again and said nothing more.

Bai Chen didn't take the initiative to start a conversation, and Ma Li didn't deliberately find a topic. Under the moonlight, the two figures accompanied each other very harmoniously.

......

336 Broken!Keane is crazy!

Time passed slowly between the two of them, and when they stood up, they looked at the clock hanging on the wall of the inn hall, and found that half an hour had passed.

Still can't come back......

Bai Chen frowned, looked at the vast desert in front of him, said nothing, after thinking for a while alone, he walked forward as if giving up, patted Ma Li on the head and said:

"It's time to go back to the room."

"Huh? Well...is it time already?"

Mary was babbling, rubbing the corners of her eyes with half of her hand that had already been inserted into her cuff, looking very sleepy.

"Well, half an hour has passed. Since Mr. Keen hasn't come back, he can only forget it. Let's see the situation tomorrow morning. If he hasn't come back, he has no choice but to go to him, but you don't want to Just catch a cold first."

Bai Chen saw that Ma Li looked a little weak, so he sighed helplessly, stepped forward to help her up, and then walked towards the inn.

Where did it go...

Situations like the one with no news at all are often the worst.

If he could get the news that he was in trouble, Bai Chen could go out to rescue him immediately, but if he really went out like that, and ended up not only failing to find Keen, but getting himself into trouble, that would be really bad up.

"Susu~"

Just as Bai Chen helped Ma Li up and turned around, suddenly there was a sound of rustling footsteps in the desert behind him.

The footsteps sounded hurried and irregular, as if they were running for their lives or... asking for help?

"Is that...Mr. Keene?"

At this time, Mary, who had recovered a little bit of energy, looked at the sandy land in the distance and asked.

Although there is moonlight shining in the desert, it is still quite difficult to see people's faces clearly with such a faint light.

Accompanied by Ma Li's voice, Bai Chen's attention also became more concentrated. He walked forward alone, went down the stairs, squinted his eyes and fixedly stared at the shadow of the person running towards here.

"Mr. Keane is right!"

After the other party ran under the light of the post station, Bai Chen finally saw the face of the visitor clearly. Just as Mary guessed, the other party was Keen who had disappeared for most of the day.

But before Bai Chen could calm down, he noticed that Keen's right leg was limping, which seemed to be injured, and he also looked a little embarrassed now, with sand all over his body, even He didn't let go of his hair, and his previously resolute face was now surrounded by panic.

"Marie, go to Mr. Tie Zang and ask if there is any medicine for treatment here. Mr. Keen looks injured!"

"Well, I see!"

The expressions of both of them became anxious. Under Bai Chen's guidance, Ma Li quickly ran towards the station, while he himself walked up in small steps, helped Keen, and asked quickly:
