I, the Pokémon Master, now resign

When Xiaozhi opened his eyes again and looked at his reflection when he was young from the window, overlooking the continent below, he suddenly realized——

"Is...the Sinnoh region?"

The trail cloud that the plane flies across connects the regrets of the boy's past and the unknown future that will start again.

722 Trial, Past, Raven City

"here is......."

Bai Chen murmured, and his eyes gradually changed from blurry to clear.

He opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was...

"Familiar ceiling? Tsk...I always feel a little weird."

It seems that according to common sense, he should say the strange ceiling at this time, but for a moment Bai Chen didn't know why he wanted to say the strange ceiling, and he didn't know where he heard the word.

His head was dizzy, as if he had a big dream.

"Boom boom~ boom boom~~"

"Who?"

Hearing a slow knock on the door, Bai Chen rubbed his eyes that were still aching and swollen, and shouted.

"Hey! You little bastard, who else can you have? You made your mother angry yesterday, and I'm the only one knocking on the door today? If it were your mother knocking on the door, how could you sleep? So safe?"

Bai Chen: "???"

Dad?

A question mark flashed in his mind, but the next second he couldn't understand why he thought so. It shouldn't be suspicious that his parents knocked on the door, right?

And dad?What's the matter with this title?Didn't you always call him daddy?Although the name dad sounds good, it's very easy to pronounce.

"Huh~ha~~ here, come, come~"

Yawning, Bai Chen walked to the door and wanted to reach out to open it, but when his hand had already touched the door, he still couldn't find where the doorknob was. Only then did I realize that the position of the doorknob needs to be reached by tiptoing slightly.

"Ugh."

He sighed in trouble, and he finally opened the door when Bai Xu outside the door was about to get impatient.

"What's going on? Are you moving so slowly? Could it be that you haven't woken up yet?"

"Seems to be......"

Even though he was awake for a moment just now, Bai Chen still felt that his consciousness was a little fuzzy, as if he had forgotten something very important, but then he forced himself to cheer himself up so that Bai Xu would not ask any further questions.

"Alas." Now it was Bai Xu's turn to sigh, and he shook his head helplessly. He originally wanted to call him down for dinner, but after seeing Bai Chen's current appearance, he couldn't bear to call him down again. He pulled back and closed the door again.

Bai Chen: "???"

No, I opened the door with great difficulty, what do you mean by closing it now?Find fault?

The corners of Bai Chen's mouth twitched twice, but then he still took a deep breath to avoid revealing his thoughts, because in his subconscious mind it's better not to offend his parents.

"I know, and I understand what you think, but... some things are really not what you see."

Bai Chen: "???"

What did I see?what do i seeWhy are you being a riddle here?

Bai Chen couldn't understand what his father was saying at all, they were all incomprehensible words, and when Bai Xu saw Bai Chen's dull expression, he thought he was making trouble, so he could only comfort him like this : "Your mother doesn't want you to become a Pokémon trainer, because she is actually worried about you. She... no, it should be me. I have encountered some troublesome things in the past, which caused him to be a Pokémon trainer." Some paranoia has occurred in the understanding of occupation, but I will try my best to help you mediate, don't worry!"

Bai Xu patted him on the back, as if giving everything to me, then got up and left.

Before going out, he certainly didn't forget why he went upstairs.

"By the way, remember to come down and have breakfast. Although you and you are still angry, she has cooked for you anyway, so you should eat some, okay?"

After finishing speaking, he closed the door, intending to give Bai Chen some time to think alone, and Bai Chen's memory was awakened because of his words.

.......

"I don't care what your dream is, what kind of person you want to be, I will support you as long as it does not touch the bottom line of morality and law, but only Pokémon trainers, this is not enough! As long as you don't become a Pokémon Everything about the baby trainer is easy to say, but if you still want to stick to your own ideas, then I can only say that I will not provide you with anything from now on, you should think carefully before talking to me!"

Yesterday, after Bai Chen and his mother confessed his dream in the future, Bai Chen, who thought he could be praised, was greeted with scolding and cynicism.

At that time, he didn't understand why the word "Pokémon trainer" made his always gentle mother look so fierce, and he didn't know why his father didn't come out to smooth things over, but just stood aside in embarrassment, as if he didn't see this. same scene.

And he didn't think much about it. His love for Pokémon and his dream of becoming a Pokémon trainer was definitely not a whim, so he also rarely refuted the future of the city, and then had no surprises with her. There was a quarrel.

The result of the quarrel can be imagined, he was punished to be locked in the room to reflect for a day, and there was no communication between them during this period, Bai Chen was angry, and she was also angry.

The only outsider, Bai Xu, who is called a good old man by the residents near Leiwen City, never said a word from the beginning to the end, whether it was Bai Chen's rebuttal or the scolding of the city's future, he turned a deaf ear to it. , he just raised his head and didn't know what he was thinking, and there was a hint of shame towards Bai Chen and the future of the city on the embarrassing expression.

As for what his shame is, Bai Chen doesn't understand and doesn't intend to ask, after all, in his young eyes, this matter has nothing to do with Bai Xu, it's just a "battle" between him and the future of the city That's all.

He wanted to express his determination in the form of anger, forcing the city to change its mind in the future.

Future in the city responded to Bai Chen's behavior with snubbing, criticism, and resistance.

The mother and son, who had been sitting together for dinner amicably the day before, seemed to have become enemies for a long time just a day apart.

.......

Recalling these things, the originally empty brain has been filled with various details, but the strange thing is that Bai Chen, who should be angry now, doesn't feel anything special, just a little bit disappointed. Meaning, he couldn't describe it himself.

.......

723 Changed past?

A few minutes later, in the kitchen on the first floor.

Bai Xu and Chengjian Future were sitting on both sides of the dining table. The moment Bai Chen went downstairs, he seemed to have seen Bai Xu talking to Chengjian Future, but his attitude was obviously not firm. After glaring at him, he smiled angrily, and the whole picture seemed to have an inexplicable bitterness.

"Ah! Here you come? I thought you were going to stay in the room for a while."

After seeing Bai Chen's figure, Bai Xu quickly changed the topic to Bai Chen. Maybe he did this just to prevent Cheng Jian from putting too much pressure on himself?At least from Bai Chen's point of view.

"Don't stand there! Come quickly, let's have breakfast first!"

After seeing Bai Chen and Cheng Jian Future look at each other, Bai Xu, who was afraid that the two would have another dispute, smiled awkwardly, and pulled Bai Chen to his seat, and Bai Chen seemed to vaguely remember where he usually eats. It's on the future side of the city.

But forget it.

Thinking so nonchalantly, Bai Chen also listened to Bai Xu's words, and sat next to him, and then just as he was about to start eating breakfast, the city future who had been silent all this time suddenly asked: "It's been a day, how much do you want to eat?" do you understand?"

Her tone was very cold, as if she was treating an enemy, Bai Chen raised his head and looked at her, but at this moment he felt that there was a trace of tiredness and pleading hidden in her cold eyes.

No, why do you have such an idea?

Bai Chen frowned subconsciously, as if he didn't understand where his thoughts came from at this time. He should continue to fight with her to the end. Logically speaking, what he should do now is the most Just roaring loudly that he wants to become a Pokémon trainer.

but......

Whenever Bai Chen wants to do this, countless pictures will always flash in his mind, and the content displayed on each picture is the broken state of his past life.

The family has turned into a tormenting hell, the residents have turned into all kinds of demons, and those playmates who have always been on good terms with him are also mocking and scolding him.

Is this the future?

He thought dully, but there was no fear in his eyes, just regret.

On the other hand, Bai Chen's silence seemed to be beyond the imagination of Chengjian Future and Bai Xu. They know their children very well. Logically speaking, after being asked such a question, he should have issued a more resolute rebuttal. He It has been unyielding from an earlier time, whether facing them at home or facing children of the same age outside.

Bai Chen's current behavior has exceeded their expectations. He no longer looks like a child, but an adult who has gone through a lot of wind and waves. But is this change good or bad?They already had a preliminary judgment in the next moment.

"Still considering."

"..."

There is no expected rebuttal, but a judgment that tends to be the most rational after weighing the pros and cons.

They looked at each other without speaking, but there was a touch of disbelief and surprise on each other's expressions.

Although I don't know why Bai Chen's personality changed so quickly, it only took one day, but Cheng Jian Future thought that it was his pure anger that made him think and forgive, while Bai Xu thought it was his comfort just now that made him feel better. Bai Chen had more time to think, which allowed him to come to such a conclusion.

"In this case, let's end your confinement first. You can go out if you want, but I want to reiterate that I will always maintain a negative attitude towards your desire to become a Pokémon trainer. The only point is not will change."

"I know."

Bai Chen didn't know what to answer at this time, but in short, he just needs to deal with it first, right?

Dealing with it should be the best choice now, right?After all, Bai Chen now feels that he doesn't seem to want to fall out with his family, but he also doesn't want to give up his dream.

Put off the immediate problem first, and let's talk about the rest later.

Bai Chen thought so.

......

It was rare to experience a fairly peaceful breakfast time. The relieved Bai Xu originally wanted to take Bai Chen for a stroll outside, and buy him some things he wanted, so as to further calm his emotions.

Regarding his father's proposal, Bai Chen just shook his head to express his reluctance. He wanted to go outside for a walk by himself. Seeing this, Bai Xu thought that Bai Chen still hadn't thought it through clearly and needed some time for himself.

Thinking of this, Bai Xu also squatted down in pain, patted Bai Chen's shoulder in the city where the future could not be seen, and said: "I understand that this is a difficult choice for you, but if you can... ..I still hope you can take more care of your mother's thoughts...it's very unfair to you, I understand that...but she can't be persuaded on this issue, even if she doesn't Become a Pokémon trainer, you can also have your own Pokémon, and you can also have Pokémon battles in the arena in Raven City, but if you insist on becoming a Pokémon trainer, there may be nothing, you Understand?"

Bai Chen: "..."

Care for her thoughts?

Now he is not even seven years old, and of course he doesn't understand why he has to give up his dream to take care of others, because is that other person his mother?Is it the mother who was always kind and gentle before she expressed her ideal?

He doesn't understand, but....

"I'll try to think about it as much as I can."

"Well, that's good! Let's play! By the way, you can also take the money. If there is anything you want to buy, just buy it."

Seeing that his son really seemed to have the idea of ​​taking a step back, Bai Xu happily took out some money, which is considered a huge sum for a child, from his pocket, and handed it to Bai Chen.

Just plain happy?Or do you want to use this method to cover up your powerlessness in this matter?

He still didn't know, but he was still unwilling to think more deeply, so he accepted Bai Xu's "compensation" with a flat face, and left without saying anything.

Looking at the small back of Bai Chen going away, Bai Xu also had mixed feelings for a while.He understands that they owe their children both to themselves and the future, but...

"I'm sorry...it's all my fault. If I could have been stronger back then, maybe I wouldn't have to sacrifice your childhood or your dreams...I'm really sorry..."

With a sad face, he apologized to the direction of Bai Chen's departure, but his apology was destined not to be seen or known by Bai Chen.

.......

724 Unknown and known

Walking on the road, Bai Chen was aimless. Although he came out from home, where is he going?What are you going to do again?He didn't know anything, he just drifted wherever he went.

"Park..."

Following his inner thoughts, Bai Chen's first stop was the park area in the residential area of ​​Leiwen City.

This is the place he usually comes to most often. After all, children of his age in Raven City come here to play together almost every day, playing each other's protagonists and villains, or bragging about the future.

And those friends who are still in the park are still those friends Bai Chen is familiar with. They are probably scattered on the slides and swings. A feeling of entering old age early.

"Huh?" While Bai Chen was watching them, some of the children in the park also noticed him. After seeing Bai Chen, they only heard him shout: "Look quickly! Bai Chen is here!"

Following one person's shout, the rest of the children in the park also looked at Bai Chen, and then under Bai Chen's bewildered gaze, they all ran up and surrounded him in unison.

"Hello! Are you okay? I heard you had a fight with your mother yesterday?"

"It seems that I have been locked up for a day? Can I come out today?"

"But it seems that there should be nothing wrong... If there is a lot of trouble, you shouldn't be able to get out, right? By the way, you are really courageous, and you dare to lose your temper with adults. My mother said that you had a lot of quarrel yesterday. It's terrible."

"And after that? Is there such a thing as asking you to write a letter of reflection?"

"..."

Facing the concerns of his companions around him, Bai Chen couldn't think of a good answer for a while, so he could only say tentatively: "I'm fine...she didn't ask me to write a letter of reflection. It hasn't been negotiated yet...Although I was released, I was also warned."

"That means you haven't reconciled yet..."

Hearing what Bai Chen said, all the companions around showed downcast expressions.

Ever since they heard that Bai Chen was arguing with his mother, they have been worried about Bai Chen's situation. After all, he is like the leader among them in a certain way, and Bai Chen usually helps them when they encounter many troubles. It was resolved, although Bai Chen himself always thought that this was a matter of course, that friends were just helping each other, but they had already unknowingly placed Bai Chen in a very high position.

"Well... there is no reconciliation now, and I don't know in the future, but it should be reconciled on the surface, right?"

"On the surface?"

They used to think that some of Bai Chen's words were difficult to understand, but after only seeing him for a day, they felt that Bai Chen's thinking seemed to have risen to a new level.

Bai Chen could see what they were thinking, but he didn't explain the meaning of his words. After all, according to his initial thinking, he should have a fight with his family to the end. The concession he made now seems to be just Somehow, the result was the same, even though he had already done such a thing, Bai Chen just didn't understand why he did it.

He couldn't understand it himself, so how could he explain it to them?
