My Soul Bond With Pokémon: Forty-two

There are no PMs at station B, and only Mandarin ones can be found on the Internet. To be honest, I’m not used to listening...

- - - - - -

After that, Chi persuaded Pichu to go back to Light Red City many times and not to worry Pichu's parents, but Pichu refused all of them, and in the end he didn't even listen and ran away.

Helpless Chi and I, who didn't know what to do, came to a nearby town, Zhenxin Town, when the sky was getting dark.

Although Chi's home is in Zhenxin Town, mine is not here, so let's go to the Pokémon Center honestly.

By the way, are the meals in any Pokémon Center the same? Although it is nutritious, plentiful, and cheap, it is okay to have a mild taste.

Although I, a poor man, am not qualified to pick and choose...

After writing this, the boy stopped writing, closed the pen cap and notebook, cleaned up the table, and looked at the clock.

"Sleep..."

－－－

On the second day, the boy brought Kirulian to the place where he met Chi and Pichu yesterday.

Although according to the itinerary, it is right to leave for Tokiwa City now, but after all, Pichu still has some minds about running away from home.

Huh? Where did you say the two-headed dragon and Werther went?

That's because when the boy went to the woods, he encountered the wild Dr. Oki, so the rare two-headed dragon and Werther were taken by Dr. Oki as research objects. It is definitely not because of the high research assistance fee given by Dr. Oki that he agreed! Just because you can contribute to society and get paid at the same time, isn't it great! ?

And when I was in the Hezhong area, I knew more or less about this celebrity in the Pokémon research field in books. Aunt Yew also had a good evaluation of Dr. Oki, so she should be a trustworthy person. Although Werther is not very happy, but the two-headed dragon seems quite interested, and there is a high research assistance fee...

"Master, it's that Pichu from before."

While the boy was thinking wildly, Kirulian pointed to a place not far away and said to the boy.

The young man looked up, only to find that not far away, a red-faced and expressionless man was confronting Pichu.

"Good morning, Chi, Pichu." The boy who felt that it was time to break the stalemate by himself raised his hand to greet Chi and Pichu.

Hearing someone calling him, Chi and Pichu turned their heads to look at the boy at the same time.

"Good morning, Xiaoxian." Chi responded.

"..." Pichu glanced at the boy, then at Chi, snorted coldly, turned and ran away.

"Uh..." Looking at Pichu's neat movements, the boy felt a little helpless, and looked at Chi, "Aren't you willing to go back?"

"Hmm..."

"Why is Pichu unwilling to go back?"

Facing the boy's question, Chi shook his head to express that he didn't know, and was equally puzzled.

"Then, I'm going to check on Pichu, so you don't want to go, Pichu doesn't seem to want to see you."

Halfway through the boy's speech, he realized that Chi also wanted to follow, so he proposed.

「……」

Chi, who was expressionless, seemed a little lost.

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

－－－

"What are you doing?" The boy searched for a while, and found Pichu who was eating a tree fruit.

"!" Hearing the boy's voice, Pichu turned his head to look at the boy, and when he found out that it was a boy, he pouted and said unhappily, "What are you doing here!"

Although the attitude is not very friendly, at least it seems to be much better than Chi.

"I will not go!"

This determination is really strong.

The boy scratched his head and thought.

"I'm not talking about this."

"Really?" Pichu was skeptical.

"I'm here, uh..." The boy touched all the pockets on his body, trying to find an excuse.

Oops! Considering that I might have to stay here for one more day, I put my backpack in the Pokémon Center, and now I only have some money on me. What excuse do you have?

Seeing Pichu's increasingly suspicious eyes, the boy started to panic, and finally found an earth-flavored chocolate in his wallet.

What kind of taste is the earthy taste! Why is this thing in my wallet! ?

"This is for you!" The boy gave the chocolate to Pichu, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"?"

Pichu looked at the boy, then at the chocolate in the boy's hand, then put down the fruit in his hand, and opened the boy's chocolate.

"It's not delicious!" Pichu threw the chocolate he had eaten angrily at the boy's face, then turned his face to pick up his own berry.

"You!?" Seeing Pichu throwing the chocolate on the boy's face, Kirulian wanted to say something angrily, but the boy stopped him.

If it doesn't taste good, it won't taste good. I don't think it will taste good when I see the slogan "Enjoy the earthy taste of spring" on the package, but it's not good to litter. Well, these are not the point.

The boy wiped the traces of chocolate on his face, and then sat down beside Pichu.

"...Is it delicious?" The boy who couldn't think of what to say asked, pointing at Pichu's fruit.

"Not for you!"

"Really... don't give it to me..." The young man scratched his head, "Well, how long have you been away from home?"

「……」

No answer.

"Actually, I also came outside without my parents knowing..."

"!?"

Pichu seemed a little surprised, attracted by the boy's words. But the teenager is stuck in his own world.

"Although I didn't do it voluntarily... I was forced to come to this huge and wonderful world. At that time, I was very confused and very scared... But a certain idiot made me strong. Although I don't know where it is, How can I go home, but just look for it. If you don’t know, just look for it, it’s very simple, isn’t it?”

"To be honest, I was very happy on this road where I didn't know what I would encounter, and at the same time I was relieved to leave my parents."

"Huh?! Wouldn't it be nice not to go back?" Pichu said.

"No, I have to go back." The boy stared into Pichu's eyes and said seriously, "Because I have something to tell them."

"Talk?"

"Well, I have to tell them well, I am very energetic, I am doing well, and I am standing in front of you now, so don't worry."

"...boring."

Leaving this sentence behind, Pichu ran away.

"Ah... let's go..."

The moment the boy finished speaking, the feet of Pichu, who had run for a short distance, suddenly cracked, and the stunned Pichu fell down along with the cracked ground.

"" "!!!""

Seeing that Pichu was in danger, the boy got up and ran towards Pichu the moment Pichu fell. But before that, a red figure ran out of the grass and hugged Pichu before the boy.

Pain.

Because of the crack in the ground, the boy who ran towards Pichu and wanted to kill Pichu was affected.

"Master! Are you alright!?" Kirulian, who was not affected, shouted from the ground.

"Ah, it's okay." The boy responded, while looking at the guy who protected Pichu, "Red?!"

"Master! I will rescue you now!"

After speaking, Kirulian was about to jump down into the cave exposed by the crack, but at that moment, the crack happened again.

"" "!!!""

"Chi! Dangerous!" The boy shouted, pulling Chi, who was holding Pichu, to the depths of the cave.

－－－－

"Ah...it's really dangerous..." the boy and his bare back leaned against the deepest wall of the cave ~IndoMTL.com~ and said happily, watching the ground collapse to about one meter in front of his eyes.

"Yeah." The red face replied blankly.

"Speaking of which, why did you suddenly appear..."

"Because I was worried, I followed behind."

"Huh? Follow me?"

"Yeah. It's great that nothing happened." Chi said looking at Pichu who was frightened by the ground collapse.

"...Well, it's fine." The boy said while stroking Pichu.

－－－－

Finally, the boy, Chi and Pichu were rescued by Kirulian.

After this, the relationship between Pichu and Chi gradually improved, presumably Chi will persuade Pichu for a while, and Pichu will go back.

And the boy is also moving towards the next gymnasium.

'You have to tell them well that I'm fine, I'm doing well, and I'm standing right in front of you now, so don't worry. ’

On the way to Tokipan City, the boy who looked at the starry sky at night recalled the words he said.

What am I talking about...Obviously I am also running away...

The boy satirized himself while thinking about this sentence.

"... Good!"

The boy who had been struggling in his mind for a long time suddenly got up and made a decision, took out the receiver, and pressed the dial button.

"Hello? Aunt Yew..."
