Chapter 113 The Past of Charcoal Servant
Chapter 113 The Past of Charcoal Servant
"Come out, little ones."
The little guys are still growing, and it's not good for their health to stay in their Poké Balls all the time. They need to breathe outside air, so Wei Xin let all three of them out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Tanjiro came out of the Poké Ball, he fell to his knees with a thud: "Crack, crack crack crack."
Charcoal Servant braced himself with both hands and slammed his head into the ground of Nature Garden.
If Tan Xiaoshi didn't see himself as the sun, then there must be another reason. Wei Xin quickly lifted Tan Xiaoshi up: "Is there something you want to ask me? Now that you're in this family, you're family. Your business is my business. I'll do everything I can to help you."
Upon hearing this, Tan Xiaoshi's eyes welled up with tears.
"Rotom, please translate this."
"Yes, my lord."
Wei Xin put Tan Xiaoshi on the ground, and Rotom landed in front of him, listening to Tan Xiaoshi tell his story.
"I see. I will convey your message to the lord."
After listening to Charcoal Servant's description, Rotom nodded, floated into the air, and amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, flew to a short distance away, woke up a sleeping Grookey, and dragged it in front of them.
"Knock?" The still-sleepy Grookey, holding a stick, looked at everyone blankly.
What's going on here?
"My Lord Knocking Monkey, please use the stick in your hand to provide me with some voiceover," Rotom said.
"Knock!" Although it didn't know what Rotom was planning to do, Grookey did as it was told and moved a rock in front of it.
As Grookey's stick fell, making a rhythmic banging sound, the Rotom screen flashed, and two Charcoal Squires appeared.
"My lord, I originally lived in Beishang Township, where I had a brother. We lived a very happy life. But then we encountered Yuanzeng Ape by the roadside. He was rude and unreasonable. He beat my brother and stole his fruit. We had no choice but to abandon our old home."
"He secretly boarded a ferry to another land, but the ship capsized en route. When he woke up, his brother was gone. He searched desperately for him, and was fortunate to be helped by a big-billed gull. He learned that his brother had crossed the ocean, and he intended to travel thousands of miles to find him, but he was captured by villains along the way."
"Thanks to my lord's rescue, I am deeply grateful and kneel before him. My brother is naive and I fear he may have been taken by a villain. He has entered the tent today without contributing anything. I humbly beg for your help, my lord. I do not seek glory or wealth in this life, but only that my brother and I may be seen."
"Poor Rotom, my lord, shall we help him, Rotom?" Rotom said, wiping away electronic tears from the corners of his eyes after finishing the song.
"Eevee~" Separated from the person she cares about, and not even knowing if she will ever see him again, Eevee couldn't bear to think about how much suffering Charcoal had endured along the way. She couldn't help but raise her head, crying with heartache as she wiped away her tears with her paws.
Mibrim and the sea lion patted Tanjiro's back. Although they knew Tanjiro had something on his mind, they didn't expect it to be so heavy.
After hearing Tanjiro's story, Bogarman, who had already emerged from the shadow of heartbreak, looked at the wing that had just hit Tanjiro's face and felt that his conscience and brain had reached a consensus, launching a condemnation attack on him.
I'm a real piece of trash.
Ralts didn't say anything, she just gently raised her hand and took the trainer's hand. She knew from the beginning what the trainer would do.
Wei Xin squatted down in front of Tan Xiaoshi and gently wiped away his tears with his fingers: "I know about what happened between you and your brother. Although I can't guarantee that I can find him, I will definitely try to find a way for you. So save the tears for the day we meet again."
Moreover, once you've captured two Charcoal Knights, you won't have to worry about whether to evolve them into Azure Blade Demon or Crimson Armor Knight.
I have to be all!
Moreover, I need to find time to go to Beishang Township to vent my anger for the charcoal servants.
Wei Xin glanced at the little Eevee beside him and wondered if he should raise a few more, each evolving into a different Eevee, and live a life of nine-colored evolution and sleeping together.
Noticing the trainer's gaze, Eevee turned its head, placed its two little paws in front of its mouth, and its eyes misted over, sending a knowing glance.
I think I'll pass; I feel like the little guy will get jealous.
"I...I'll help too!" came a choked female voice from the side.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Wei Xin and Ma Liang turned their heads at the same time and saw Lillie standing to the side with red eyes, sobbing softly.
At this moment, Lillie was not wearing the suit, because the suit had been left on Hunter J's ship and would even be used as important evidence of Hunter J's crimes, adding another layer to her trial. Ma Liang did not recognize her at first and was slightly stunned until Wei Xin spoke.
"Lillie, what brings you here? Is everything alright at home?" Wei Xin thought that after what happened with Hunter J, Lusamine would forbid Lillie from entering the research center again to prevent her from encountering WX.
"I ran into a little problem, but it's been resolved," Lillie said with a smile. She used a special, unspeakable method to get her mother's approval for her to have normal, casual, and not overly intimate interactions with others, temporarily.
"The professor asked me to take you to the research lab," Lillie said.
Heading to the research lab? Could it be that Hunter J has dropped another gold coin?
Doraemon is really too kind.
How could I possibly accept this?
Wei Xin was delighted and turned to the little guys, instructing them: "Mimikyu, help me with some practical training for Ralts. Rotom, look after the little guys for me. If anything happens, come find me."
"And what about me? Has the professor looked for me?" Ma Liang, suddenly realizing something, leaned close to Lillie and eagerly pointed to his own nose.
Lillie tilted her head in confusion: "Who are you?"
"Huh?" Ma Liang looked bewildered.
"Just kidding," Lillie smiled. "Ma Liang, I remember."
"Oh, Lillie, you're so funny." Seeing Lillie's smile, Ma Liang, who never learns his lesson, grinned sheepishly. Although he wasn't as charming as Wei Xin, he still had a tiny bit of his own charm.
Hehe, she said she remembers me.
"So, did the professor contact me?" Ma Liang asked.
Lillie shook her head, pointed to the pond in the distance where the sea lion Ball Ball was swimming, and revealed a mischievous smile that was extremely incongruous with her innocent face: "The professor told you to go cool off somewhere else."
Unlike carefree boys who take revenge immediately, girls hold grudges very well, sometimes even for decades.
Even now, Lillie still remembers Ma Liang's offense to her that day, along with his offense to Wei Xin.
"Brother, I'm sorry, but now only Shirabbi can save you." Wei Xin patted Ma Liang on the shoulder.
I don't know if Shirabbi is still in Donghuang.
Upon hearing this, Ma Liang stood frozen in place, watching helplessly as Wei Xin and Lillie turned and left.
Nearby, Ralts tested the rainmaking skill she had learned yesterday, and a torrential downpour fell on Ma Liang's disappointed face.
"Pegaman, Pogaman!" After being rejected by the sea lion, Pogaman walked up to Ma Liang and patted his leg.
What was that saying again?
Wise people don't fall in love, and Buddha doesn't save fools. The sea of suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore. You might as well learn from me and take it easy.
The pond is a bit chilly, would you like to come along?
……
"By the way, Lillie, are you living in a villa off-campus now?" Wei Xin asked on the way to the lab.
Now that a new member has joined the family, the original small house is no longer enough, and the sea lion Qiuqiu needs a sufficient living space, so the indoor aquarium may not be enough. Therefore, Weixin plans to rent a house, or better yet, buy a larger villa.
"Yes," Lillie replied, puzzled.
"Are there any other villas around your house?" Wei Xin asked. "Those with swimming pools or small ponds?"
Lillie suddenly realized, "Wei Xin is planning to buy a villa for his newly caught Pokémon, right? Wei Xin not only understands Pokémon, but he also loves his Pokémon very much."
"It seems there are a few villas around my house that are unoccupied," Lillie said. In fact, all the villas in the area are under her name. "Since Wei Xin needs it, I'll ask someone to help me inquire."
And since we'll be living close by, we'll run into each other on the street often, and maybe we'll even have a chance to go shopping and chat together. But if we live too close, won't there be no reason to stay overnight? We can't just blow up the house just to stay overnight, can we?
It seems... not impossible. Lillie began to think about just how much explosives would be needed to blow up a villa.
"Alright, I'll consider it a favor," Wei Xin said. "Remember to sell it to me at the original price."
Before long, the two arrived at the door of the research room, pushed it open, and saw the professor and his senior classmates doing research around a white stone.
Upon seeing Wei Xin enter, the professor said, "Wei Xin, you've come at the right time. Your knowledge is a bit obscure. Take a look at this thing, do you recognize it?"
"Okay." Wei Xin responded, moved closer to the center of the laboratory, and looked through the transparent glass at the white stone in the middle.
Wei Xin poked his head out, and in an instant, the white stone emitted a dazzling light. Then, a blazing dragon's roar rang in his ears.
What is your true nature?
What the hell?
As the light faded, Wei Xin's pupils dilated and he gasped when he saw the true nature of the stone inside the instrument.
No, Hunter J, why are you putting all sorts of things on the spaceship?!
