It all starts with helping Pokémon

Chapter 49 Compared with dead relatives and friends, living is the most painful

"Don't run around, we'll be down soon."

"Moli~"

Larger Pokémon were not allowed to enter the hospital. Hoshino let the motorcycle lizard play with those wild Pokémon in the park, and he brought Gengar and Lillie in together.

The hospital is still the same, there are quite a lot of people every day, but it is still very easy to find someone, the sniper tree owl has already informed the location of its trainer's ward.

After a while, the two came to the front of the ward. Because it was an intensive care unit, they couldn't get in, so they could only look at the situation inside through the transparent glass window.

"Gengar?"

Geng Gui stuck to the window, looked inside curiously, and was soon carried back by Hoshino.

"Don't run in through the wall. This is the ICU ward. If something goes wrong, you won't be able to pay us if you sell us both."

"Gengar..."

In the ward, there were various instruments and equipment that Hoshino could not understand, and several beds were placed, and an old man was lying on the only place where there were people. This was Mai Ren, the trainer who sniped the tree owl.

I had been recuperating in the general ward before, but I didn't know what happened a few days ago, I didn't wake up, but I was rescued in the end, but it's just that time is running out, probably only a few days.

Looking through the glass, Li Liai's expression was a little sad and puzzled: "There is obviously a sniper tree owl, but why would you rather leave like this than spend more time in the last moments of your life?"

Hoshino watched silently, sighed, and responded: "Because after witnessing the death of relatives and friends, the living are the most painful. The old man knows this, so he wants to leave alone. As far as it is concerned, it is no longer a simple Pokémon, but the closest family."

Lilia was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect him to say these words, it's very reliable to be serious...but now I understand, this is the answer that Snipe Tree Owl wants to know.

So the commission is now complete?She was not sure, and after pondering for a moment, she asked, "By the way, does this old man have no other family members?"

Hoshino shook his head and responded: "The old man has a child, and he made a lot of money traveling as a trainer when he was young. He is one of the first batch of trainers who left Alola to travel, and finally returned to his hometown. .”

"The earliest... that must have been six or seventy years ago, and it was at that time that the Alola region was officially opened to communicate freely with the outside world. The profession of trainers and Poké Balls all originated from Sinnoh...that is, Xicui a hundred years ago. The origin of the region, the Alola region is the latest to be exposed to these."

Hearing her suddenly say so much, it was Hoshino's turn to be surprised: "You really know a lot. I have to go to the encyclopedia to find things like the history of this world, and I may not be able to find the correct one."

Lilia pursed her lips, and responded: "It's okay... I just read a lot. If you have anything you don't understand, you can ask me, especially about Pokémon."

"It's broken, it's a true treasurer..."

"...By the way, how do you know so many things about Grandpa?"

"Ok?"

Hoshino came back to his senses, then took out his mobile phone, and said, "Snipe Tree Owl told me, I will translate and record what I heard, so as not to make mistakes, and it will be convenient for proofreading and subsequent study and understanding."

Looking at the records in the memorandum on the screen, Liliai suppressed her inner excitement, but she still couldn't hold it back, and suddenly burst out with a strong thirst for knowledge.

"Can you teach me this!"

"Wait until you become a regular employee."

Hoshino waved his hand, turned around and was about to leave with Geng Gui in his arms. Seeing this, Li Liai asked suspiciously, "Leave now? Then entrust..."

"I already know what the tree owl is going to investigate, just go out and tell it."

"That's it... too perfunctory! Although it seems that this answer may indeed be the answer, but..."

"The content of the entrustment is just an investigation. Just tell it the answer. It's more important to untie the knot. The old man doesn't have much time. The sniping tree owl is about the same now. At least you can't leave any regrets."

"..."

Lilia fell silent again, what she said was indeed very reasonable, if she was allowed to come, even if she guessed the answer, she would definitely continue to investigate stubbornly until she was confirmed, but it would be too late.

"I didn't think about that much, so the commission is over, and my interview test..."

She suddenly became nervous, because she didn't seem to have done anything, just ran away.

"Let's talk about it after we tell Sniper Tree Owl the results of the investigation." Hoshino responded casually, then subconsciously looked into the ward, and sighed softly: "As a trainer, but ended up alone in the hospital bed, it's a shame. Really are……"

As he said that, he returned the same way with Little Geng Gui in his arms, and Li Liai followed nervously, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, and the two did not talk.

But at this moment, two middle-aged people walked up to them, a man and a woman, like a couple.

The man is wearing a suit and has a Mediterranean hairstyle. He looks like a small boss. The woman is dressed richly and luxuriously, holding a charming cat unique to the Sinnoh region in her arms, and is constantly stroking it.

They passed by Hoshino and Lillie, but the middle-aged woman suddenly complained: "It's so annoying, isn't it okay for the old man to live in Sinnoh? He obviously has a house in Binhai City, but he has to go to a place like Alola For retirement, it will take more than ten years."

Hearing this, the man in the suit on the side responded in a low voice: "Don't say that, it's our father anyway, the eldest brother and the second brother and their family came yesterday, and the old man probably only took these two days, rely on the ICU to support him, let him write the will It'll be fine once it's done."

"That's true, but hurry up, it's really uncomfortable to stay in this poor country, and I have to go back to watch our precious daughter participate in the gorgeous contest."

"Don't worry, the bulk of the inheritance must belong to us. If you don't give it to me, the most beloved youngest son, why not give it to a tree owl? Hahaha."

"Indeed, I heard that the fierce old bird has not been seen recently, so it must be gone..."

The voices of the two gradually faded away, Hoshino and Liliai stayed where they were, and they had heard all the conversations just now.

But suddenly, Liliai turned around with an angry expression, and was about to leave, but Hoshino grabbed his shoulder and stopped him: "Don't be impulsive, calm down."

"How can you be so calm? It's too much. Don't these people have any sense of responsibility as children? Grandpa is like this, and they actually..."

"Gengar!"

Not only Lillie, but even Geng Gui waved his fists in displeasure, but Hoshino kept his calm face and said, "It's quite realistic, and what can you do in the past like this? Condemnation?"

"I... uh..."

"So don't be too naive. Children who have never been in society are like this. Your current level is not enough to be my assistant."

Hearing this, Lilia knew that she was out of action, and she couldn't help feeling depressed, but the sentence in the middle brought her back to her senses immediately, and retorted: "What kid, you should be the same age as me, say Maybe I'm a few months older than you!"

"Huh? What caused you to have such an illusion? Did you fall into the mirror?"

"I'm so young..." Liliai was about to retort, but suddenly realized something, immediately covered her chest, took a step back, her cheeks flushed slightly, and cursed softly: "Dirty..."

Hoshino didn't continue to pay attention to her, but looked at the displeased Geng Gui in his arms, and said in a low voice, "I'll find a place where no one is monitoring, and when those two guys come out, I'll go first..."

"Gengar!"

"Wait! You are committing a crime! Don't teach Geng Gui some bad things!"

Just when Hoshino was holding little Geng Gui, and Li Liai left one after the other, the middle-aged couple also arrived at the ward and stopped.

But at this moment, I don't know whether I heard Hoshino's previous words, or the conversation between his son and daughter-in-law, or the last reflection of his life.

Lying lifelessly on the hospital bed, the old man suddenly opened his eyes and burst out with a terrifying momentum. He tore off all the tubes on his body and sat up from the bed...

After a long time, still in that park, Hoshino waited until the sniper tree owl appeared, and told it about the old man.

"That's it. He doesn't want to make you too sad, so he ignores you, so that even if he separates, he won't be too sad."

"Gu..."

The sniper tree owl lowered his head and calmed down, apparently fully understanding his trainer's intentions.

Hoshino didn't bother it, and just let it be quiet for a while, while Lilia who was not far away was sad and also a little depressed.

But at this moment, the sudden siren sound broke the peace, and they looked towards the source of the sound at the same time, it was the hospital, something happened!

The sniping tree owl immediately took off, much faster than before, Hoshino and Lillie also ran towards that side, wanting to see what happened.

As soon as she arrived, she happened to meet Miss Junsha maintaining order at the scene, and then she suddenly caught a glimpse of someone who was joining in the fun, and she was a little surprised and said, "What a coincidence, aren't you that so-and-so... What are you doing here?"

"..."

Hoshino was stunned for a moment, how did he know himself again?But doubts are doubts, he asked curiously: "What's wrong with the hospital? There's such a big commotion."

Regarding this question, Ms. Junsha seemed to think of something, showing a very weird expression, and then responded: "You said it is not far off, an old man in the intensive care unit suddenly broke the protective glass with a punch and escaped. Knocked out a couple at the scene, then left the hospital and disappeared."

"What super Alola man?!"
