It all starts with helping Pokémon

Chapter 48 The commission to shoot the tree owl begins...

In the early morning of the next day, the sun rose, and the door of Wanshi House was opened from the inside, and the sun shone in, bringing a burst of warmth.

Hoshino looked at the weather, took out the washed clothes and put them here to dry, then went back to the house and prepared breakfast for the guys.

The two squirrels were running around in the living room, playing with Geng Gui and the motorcycle lizard. They were already familiar with each other, but in two days, a pair of squirrels would also be sent away to their hometown of Padia. .

After the meal, Hoshino and Motor Lizard took Geng Gui to go out to do commissions, while the two Shushu stayed at home to take care of the Pokémon egg. It was shaking more and more recently, and it was probably about to hatch...

"Miss is really fast, did you catch the first bus?"

Hoshino saw the message from Lillie, and then thought about how he was educated by the other party last night, and he suddenly showed an expression of not knowing what to say.

"This makes me how to face her in the future, or should I continue to be the same as before... I haven't encountered those meows in the past few days, and finally gave up? Or are you holding back your big move?"

He changed the topic for himself, and Geng Gui, who was sitting on top of him, couldn't understand what he was talking to himself, and continued to watch the scenery while blowing the wind.

It snowed lightly overnight, but as the sun rose, the snow basically melted. He was very familiar with the route to the hospital, and he didn't need to look at the map to find it, and he arrived soon.

"Here!"

After seeing Hoshino, Li Liai smiled and waved her hands and shouted, she changed into a short skirt that is more convenient for movement today, and she didn't continue to wear the white foreign cap, but tied her long hair into a single ponytail , looks like the whole person is full of vitality.

"Alola~"

"Alora..."

Hoshino walked over to respond, and sure enough, he was still a little embarrassed, the kind who couldn't get used to it. Geng Gui and Motor Lizard also came over to say hello, and they always didn't care.

"Gengar~"

"Moli~"

"Alola~ You guys are also in good spirits today, let's work hard later!"

Lilia is now very much looking forward to the next commission, and this is also the key to deciding whether she can formally join Master House.

Hoshino tried not to look at her to avoid embarrassment, hugged the little Geng Gui who wanted to float over to play with her first, and then said: "Wait a little longer, the appointed time will be here soon, and the tree owl will probably be shot soon." coming."

"Ah."

Lilia nodded slightly, and then sat down with him on a bench in the park, with a distance intentionally separated between them.

During the waiting time, it turned out that Hoshino broke the inexplicably awkward atmosphere first, and said slowly: "As a... friend? Can you tell me about you? I want to get to know you..."

"Ok?"

"That's why you are afraid of Pokémon. There must be a reason for this situation, right?"

Hoshino was a little curious about this. He instinctively felt that this stubborn young lady might not be able to get rid of her in the future. In order to avoid being unintentionally tricked by the other party in the future, it would be better to ask the reason a little bit.

And when it came to this, the smile on Lilia's face gradually faded, she shook her head slightly, and responded in a low voice: "This... Actually, I don't know, I always feel like I've forgotten something."

"I don't know when it will start. Whenever I touch a Pokémon, I will react instinctively. I will be very scared both physically and mentally."

Hearing this, Hoshino thought for a while and guessed: "The brain should let you selectively forget something out of protection, but people don't remember it, but the body still remembers it, so that's why?"

"That's what everyone says, but I still can't remember what happened, and I can't get over the fear, and the mother... no, it's nothing."

When Liliai suddenly mentioned her mother, there was a flash of pain in Lilia's eyes, but it was fleeting. She shook her head and her voice became much quieter.

She didn't continue talking, but changed the topic, looked sideways, and asked, "What about you? There must be a reason for becoming such a character, right? Lack of family companionship..."

"I was an orphan since I was a child and had no family."

"Feel sorry……"

It wasn't until Lilia realized that this kind of thing should have been known for a long time, but it was mentioned again.

But Hoshino shook his head and responded: "It doesn't matter, and that's a thing of the past, don't you have a family now?"

As he spoke, he touched the head of the little Geng Gui in his arms, and then looked at the motorcycle lizard chasing the wild little Du'er in the grove.

Lilia instantly understood what he meant, and murmured softly, "Treat Pokémon as family... That's why you came up with the idea of ​​setting up a house of everything?"

Hoshino smiled, stood up and responded: "The only thing I can and is good at is Pokémon. If I can't succeed in what I am best at, then I don't know what is the meaning of my life."

"It seems that you are not particularly good at it. Didn't you fail all the subjects in the exam..."

"Furthermore, I have broken the defense!"

Seeing him suddenly like this, Liliai smiled softly, but the next second Hoshino suddenly put Geng Gui on her body, the smile stopped abruptly, and his hair exploded instantly.

"!!!"

"If you are afraid of Pokémon, keep touching it and touch it again until you completely overcome and adapt to it. Your purity as a trainer will be greatly improved!"

"Gengar~"

Geng Gui also smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Lillie's face. It already knew that this cute young lady might be a member of the future Wanshiwu, so it naturally had to treat it friendly and cordially.

Just as they were fighting, the green shade above shook for a while, and a sniping tree owl flew down from above, landed in front of them, and almost fell down.

"Gu..."

"coming."

Hoshino straightened his posture, Geng Gui returned to his shoulders, and Liliai also recovered with a resentful expression. Although she was a little angry, it was not the time to talk about these things, and it was time to start working!

……

"Gu..."

"Is your trainer in the intensive care unit of this hospital? Got it... The relationship between you should be very good, right?"

"Goo!"

"Hmm... In the past two years, because the trainer's health has deteriorated and he is often hospitalized, it's rare to see him again?"

Seeing that Hoshino still moved according to the call of the sniping tree owl, he started talking. Lilia on the side only felt that it was very powerful, and she wanted to learn this too.

But putting these aside for the time being, after hearing the translation, she subconsciously asked: "In this case, why not accompany me more at the last time? Is there any conflict between you?"

Lilia said the question Hoshino wanted to ask, but the sniper tree owl shook his head, saying that it had always had a good relationship with the trainer, but this happened suddenly.

"That's really weird..."

Hoshino took notes and continued to ask: "Does your trainer have any other Pokémon? Since you have been traveling for so many years, you should not be the only one. Could it be that other Pokémon..."

"Gu..."

The sniper tree owl shook its head again, and with its body movements, feathers fell off its body. Lilia noticed it and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Hoshino waving, signaling that she had something to say later.

"When I met and parted with Pokémon during the trip, you are the only one left to accompany me in the end..." Hoshino pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, and responded with a smile: "I understand, leave the rest to us to investigate. Any news, we will notify you as soon as possible, anyway, you must be nearby."

"Gu..."

The sniping tree owl nodded, and then flapped its wings to fly away, but it seemed to be very laborious, and the speed of taking off was not fast at all.

After it left, Lilia had a sad expression on her face, put her hands on her chest, and said in a low voice: "Its body is about to fail, it may be that some of its injuries when it was young have not been healed well, now that it is older , and finally..."

"There are no outsiders here, so you might as well tell me more in detail."

"This sniper tree owl may only be around for a year or two..." Lilia paused for a while, looked at the feathers falling down in mid-air, and continued: "Feathers fall off easily, even a little vitality No, it's obvious..."

"really……"

Hoshino saw something wrong with the sniping tree owl last night, and it turned out that not only the trainer was about to die, but also the Pokémon, even if it had ghost attributes, it couldn't change anything.

"Let's go, let's go to the hospital to see the target of this entrusted investigation."

"Ah."
