N-A-A Chapter 334: Human Hearts Are Actually Very Fragile
Chapter 334: Human Hearts Are Actually Very Fragile
"You're really slow, Xiaozhi." In a private room of a small roadside restaurant, Ah Jun complained to Xiaozhi who was concentrating on his meal. The blond boy tapped the glass with his fingers, and ice cubes floated in the amber soda. The wall of the glass reflected the scene of the entire room: Eslo and Darko who were chatting, Xiaoguang who was playing with Pogamon, and Mary who was sitting far away and seemed to be lost in thought.
Retracting his gaze from the bottle, this rival who could never sit still was now rocking back and forth against the wall with the back of his chair, and the chair legs made short squeaks as they rubbed against the wooden floor. Not long ago, Eslo and his companions, who had decided to look for Satoshi and his group, successfully met at the registration office of the Pokémon League.
Xiaozhi subconsciously raised his head, drank some beverage and swallowed the food in his mouth with great effort. As a result, he choked, "Gurgle Gurgle... cough cough cough..."
Seeing this, Hikaru patted Xiaozhi's back helplessly. Before he could pat him a few times, the idiot calmed down. "Thank you... Really, there was nothing we could do. We didn't know which Pokémon was playing a prank. We wandered around Lizhi Lake for a long time and finally escaped with great effort. And the Denji gym leader is so powerful!"
"Pika..." Pikachu also put down the snack in his hand, looking frightened.
Whether in terms of combat awareness or the strength and quality of the Pokémon, Denji is one of the most terrifying opponents that Satoshi and Pikachu have ever faced.
Hearing this, Dakoto, Asun and Mali who was sitting a little further away all subconsciously glanced at Eslo. It seemed that the disaster that Xiaozhi had encountered was somewhat related to the other party.
Aisiluo: "..."
"That's great," Ah Xun was still the one who comforted him, "Fighting against a strong person is not much worse than training."
"That being said..." Xiaozhi rubbed his nose, and then seemed to suddenly think of something, "By the way, where is that guy Shinji?"
"Shinji, he didn't come out with us. He stayed at my house. He was probably waiting until the Holy Flame Tournament started." Darko explained.
Tamaki also crossed his arms and nodded at Shinji, "That damn tsundere!"
In the past, Tamaki wouldn't have dared to say this to Shinji, but after all, the two of them had been traveling together for a while, and their verbal jokes had become relatively more relaxed. Besides, Tamaki is Shinji's fan ≠ Tamaki can't complain about Shinji. The inequality was resolved in an instant.
However, in the next moment, accompanied by a cold laugh, A Xun's movements became stiff.
Following the sound, I saw Shinji leaning lazily against the door frame of the box. The light from the corridor outside stretched the shadow of the purple-haired boy very long. His sharp eyes were staring at Ajun without blinking. Naturally, Ajun had been rude to him before, but as for the result... just a beating.
Not long ago, Aislo sent him a message, which roughly meant that they were having dinner with Xiaozhi and others. Originally, Shinji was not planning to come, but there was no choice. The boy's original words were "With Xiaozhi's personality, he will definitely find someone to fight after dinner and watching the game, and it is very likely me. Can you come and help me deal with it?"
Shinji might not have come if it was an ordinary invitation, but this was a friend asking for help, and it was not Shinji who came here on his own initiative. Besides, he was indeed a little curious about the current strength of Infernape, that was all. As a result, as soon as he arrived, he heard Ajin's "provocation".
"Well...it's all misunderstanding." Ah Xun smiled awkwardly.
Looking at this scene, Eslo, as the "instigator", couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, but he soon noticed that the girl next to him who had been silent seemed to be a little wrong - she hadn't eaten, just sitting there.
So the boy moved his body and leaned over.
【what's on your mind? 】
A voice that only the two of them could hear rang in Mary's ears, causing the girl to be slightly startled. She could even feel the boy's warm breath, but Mary quickly responded with telekinesis, "Well, it's okay. I was just thinking about my future schedule..."
Mary had agreed with her brother Nie Zi not long ago on a time to pick her up, a week after the Lily of the Valley Conference, and even the plane tickets had been bought. This also meant that her and Aislo's trip would be coming to an end. Undoubtedly, this strange feeling of loss made Mary feel empty inside.
[In the future?] Aislo tilted his head, thinking about the current time, he could naturally guess what the girl was thinking at the moment, [Although it feels a bit irresponsible, let's leave the future troubles to the future.]
The black-haired boy's "whispering" continued, "If you always worry about tomorrow, how can you grasp today?"
Happiness is a very important thing for a person. If one is under mental stress for a long time, the result may only be more extreme behavior.
Mary has been under a lot of pressure since she was a child, which made her stronger than ordinary people. Eslo knew this, but he also knew that no matter how strong a person is, they need comfort, and no matter how strong the heart is, they need support.
As a famous movie said - "The human heart is actually very fragile, so we have to coax it often."
The ticket to the future should not become the shackles of the present.
[Today...] Mary murmured, looking out the window. The weather was very good today, with a few clouds hanging in the blue sky as embellishments. The bright sunshine shone into the box through the glass, making the cheeks of the young boys and girls shine.
[I know...A Luo.]
If you let the joy of the moment slip through your fingertips because of worries about the future, that would be a real loss. The smart girl naturally understood this. After Mary finished speaking, she leaned towards Aislo, and the two of them were almost sticking together.
Regardless of the peaceful life here, the situation between Shinji and Ajin is still tense... or rather, Shinji is so powerful that Ajin, who is a little guilty, is defeated.
Dakodo sat aside in silence. He really saw the shadow of an old friend in Ajun just now.
Jin Laowu, who is preparing to fight Xiaoyin: Ha--tsk! It seems like someone is thinking about me? It's me! I am always exuding charming charm~
Xiaoyin, who was staying next to Ajin:...
As for Xiaozhi, he was still concentrating on eating, while Xiaoguang sat quietly on the side and watched the fun.
"Poga!" Pogaman found the elves such as Zoroark who were eating not far away, and it seemed that they didn't care much about this place.
According to the current situation, Ah Xun would definitely not be able to escape this beating, but at this moment, Xiao Gang came in from outside with a few bottles of water in his hands. After saying a few words to ease the atmosphere, he distributed the water to everyone present, "By the way, there are several contestants in this Holy Fire Conference who are old acquaintances of yours, Xiao Zhi."
"Huh?" Xiaozhi, who was about to continue eating, was slightly stunned and looked up at Xiaogang.
