Maybe it's a dream, or maybe it's just a fantasy. In the haze, Saya felt that she was standing on the dock in the early morning.

The sunlight is reflected on the sea, but the waves are not clear. The sky was gray, and the sea was so dark that even a sparse light through the clouds – or smoke – could not illuminate the entire sea.

"I'm sorry. The tanned sailor shook his head, "I can't go to Orange Island today." ”

"What!?"

"We've bought all the tickets!"

The trainers angrily surrounded the sailors. "She" stood in the crowd, quietly observing everything.

"I don't have a problem!" the sailor turned and pointed in the direction of Orange Island—the northern sky was overcast, and there was a faint glow of fire, reflecting the fog a dull gray-red, "Haven't you all watched the morning news?" The flame birds on Orange Island woke up, and heard that many people died of a mad fever, and the volcanic eruption did not know if it had stopped, and the people on the island ran out to take refuge. Isn't it looking for death on the island at this time?"

As soon as these words came out, the young trainers were in an uproar.

Not all travelers have the courage to face mad beasts and natural disasters. Listening to the faint roar, many people immediately turned worried, and even began to ask the sailors if they could sail away from here.

"Don't worry, don't worry. "I heard that the Flame Bird has just been subdued by the search department that has arrived, and there is no need to run—and there is a sea in the middle, so it can burn this way." ”

The trainers were relieved.

Before the crowd had dispersed, "she" had already turned away without thinking. After taking a few steps, there was an exclamation from behind the people, as if there was a flame-colored light flashing extremely dazzlingly in the sky, accompanied by the long cry of the flame bird, which echoed in the sky and earth for a long time.

"She", who was present in person, continued to walk forward indifferently, while the onlookers were already anxious.

No. It shouldn't be like this. How can they be subjected to such a catastrophe?

I can change something. I should have changed.

Please, don't leave like that!

Turn around!!

====================

The man lying on the bed suddenly struggled. She instinctively wanted to bounce up, but her body was too weak to support such movements.

"Boom!"

The delirious man threw himself out of bed and slammed his head on the bedside table with great misfortune.

Sayo: "......"

The pain is sober.

The unfamiliar room and the overly strange dreams filled Yaya's mind with confusing question marks, and it took a while to sit on the floor before her brain could spin with difficulty.

The bed was covered with new white sheets, a little wrinkled by her violent movements, and hanging bottles for infusions hung from the iron shelf—there was no doubt that this was a hospital room. At this moment, the patient only felt weak, dizzy, and the wounds all over his body were aching, and it became difficult to even stand up. Her left hand was held in place with a splint and bandage, and the slightest shaking would cause pain to pierce the bone marrow.

Rao is in his previous life, and Xiao Ye rarely tosses himself into such a miserable state, and he feels a little fresh for a while, and he is still interested in looking at himself.

A drop of blood slipped from the back of his right hand. Only then did Xiao Ye notice that the back of her hand was bruised, and the needle hanging from the infusion bottle was dangling in the air. Apparently, she pulled it out of place as she fell out of bed.

...... I guess I didn't break the needle, did I?

Xiao Ye wanted to scratch her head weakly, but when she raised her hand, she only touched the thick bandage, so she had to give up.

The curtains were drawn tightly, barely letting in a glimmer of light, except for the fluorescent lamps, which were turned on on the lowest setting, providing a dim yellow glow. Xiao Ye was a little unsure of how long he had been asleep, so he stood up on the bed, intending to go to the window to take a look at the sky.

Before he could take a step, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open.

Perhaps it was the excessive consumption of consciousness power that made the senses become slightly dull, and Xiao Ye couldn't notice the footsteps outside the door, until the sound of pushing the door came, and when she turned around, she saw a young nurse in white standing in front of the door in a daze, her expression gradually shocked.

Xiao Ye watched the large and small bottles and cans in the nurse's hands fall to the ground and shatter, and before she could feel sorry, she was hugged by the woman in her arms.

"It's great, you're finally awake! We've been waiting too long...... I thought you'd never wake up again......" said the little nurse as she whimpered.

Xiao Ye was suddenly terrified, and countless movie plots of "patients who had been sleeping for many years woke up to find that things were wrong" rolled through his mind, "That, may I ask...... How long did I sleep?"

The little nurse sniffed, "More than a day." ”

Sayo: "......"

Why do you tone like I've been asleep for ten years?

She confirmed the specific time to the crying nurse - five o'clock in the afternoon of the 29th. That is, she fell asleep for more than thirty hours.

Although it's not as exaggerated as the plot of the movie, this time is enough to surprise Sayo. It stands to reason that she had only suffered some non-fatal injuries, and would never have fallen asleep for so long.

So...... Is it really because of the Heart of the Moon?

After crying heartily, the little nurse immediately rejoiced at the awakening of the tourist. She inquired about how Xiao Ye was feeling at this time, and examined her injuries to confirm that her physical condition was okay, but she was only a little weak due to the lack of food and blood loss for a long time.

When Xiao Ye asked if she could go out, the young woman suddenly smiled.

"Of course, the patient is always stuffed in the room and never recovers. The little nurse carefully avoided the bandage and gently touched the girl's head, "and—you'll be sorry if you missed tonight!"

She helped Xiaoye to the window and suddenly opened the curtains.

The evening sky was a little dark, but the Valley of Flames was bathed in a scorching light. It was the lights of thousands of homes scattered like scattered stars in every corner.

Rhythmic drumbeats rumble through the cracks in the windows, mixed with laughter and out-of-tune singing. People and Pokémon sang and danced, and more torches were lit, almost melting the Valley of Flames into a sea of orange stars.

It wasn't until this scene came into view that the newly awakened person really realized that the sad battle was over.

The seven days of the festival of fire came to an end yesterday, and it stands to reason that there should be no more celebrations. It's just that the most important seventh day was spent in the midst of chaos, treating the wounded and rescuing collapsed buildings, and there was no time to enjoy the festival.

In that case, how about not adding to the main event--the Flame People.

Xiao Ye asked the young nurse about yesterday's battle, and was relieved to learn that no one had died, and instead asked how her Pokémon were doing.

"Xiao Ye, your Pokémon are all in Yangyu's house. Don't worry, he's taking good care of them!" replied the little nurse.

Saya nodded, "I want to go and retrieve my Pokémon first...... Ah, I'll be on my own, you still have work to do, right?"

Seeing that the little nurse made a gesture to help her to her destination like a disabled person, Xiao Ye hurriedly waved her hand - after all, she broke her hand, not her foot.

After seeing off the busy nurses, Xiao Ye quietly left the infirmary.

The Valley of the Flames was a bustling scene, with many bandaged men running around happily, dancing with their hands, not paying any attention to the doctor who was chasing after them and asking them to rest and recuperate. Even if Xiao Ye went out with this arm hanging on his chest, it would not be abrupt at all.

- It's just that the hair color is still the same abrupt, and even half of it is covered by bandages will not help. Before she could take a few steps, she was captured by her little friend.

"Little—Night—"

The roar from afar startled Xiao Ye and almost hit her head on the pillar. She turned around in astonishment and saw the brown-haired boy rushing straight at her, almost bursting into tears like a watering can.

"It's really good that you're okay, I thought you'd die, uh-uh-uh......-uh

Sayo: "......"

Seeing her in this way, Saya began to wonder if she had broken her arm or neck.

The people on the street didn't notice the tourists who were sneaking by, but after Yongzhen roared over, they suddenly noticed it, and they rushed over. Seeing that everyone's eyes were shining and they were about to shout something, Xiao Ye decisively made the first move, took out his maximum volume and said loudly: "I really don't want to die, don't worry!!"

Normal people who didn't think so were stunned for a moment, looking at Yongzhen who was crying like a watering can, and then looking at Xiao Ye, whose face was full of words, and laughed collectively.

"What are you kids talking about?" said one of the middle-aged men, who laughed breathlessly, and covered his stomach for a long time to explain, "We're just pretty happy." If you don't wake up, you'll miss the first real fire festival in 500 years!"

"Xiao Ye, thank you!" shouted to someone who was drowned in the crowd by the neck, "We have all heard from the patriarch, if it weren't for your help, we might have to sacrifice a few brothers!"

"And Sister Qingna, thanks to you, I fished it out!"

The crowd gathered strangers in the center, their faces full of gratitude and happiness. Someone couldn't help but say that he stuffed a few red fruits into Xiao Ye's hands, omitting the usual polite words to sightseers, and said concisely: "It's sweet, taste it!"

The girl who was surrounded by a cluster vaguely felt some kind of change. As if the translucent sense of distance had finally dissipated, the sheer joy and gratitude from the Flame People was transmitted unreservedly to the hearts of the strangers like a blazing fire, causing her to bend the corners of her eyes slightly.

She looked sideways at Yang Yu who was standing next to Yongzhen, and when she saw the other party's half-crying expression, she couldn't help laughing, "Yang Yu, do you think I'm going to die?"

Yang Yu shook his head violently, "No...... I know that overconsumption of mental power is theoretically not lethal, and at most it becomes a vegetative state, QAQ. ”

Sayo: "......"

Thank you for your rational and thoughtful answer......

When a group of Flame Folk gathers together, it's hard to get them to stop chatting automatically. The chaotic crowd tugged at the tourists who had made great achievements, until the captain of the guards, who had come in search of the voice, could not bear to interrupt the conversation.

"What are you doing, the preparations for the banquet are complete?" Jing Mu shouted with a dark face, "Don't surround the wounded, the air is out of circulation." Do your job!"

The hippie-faced red-haired ones politely shouted a few words, "It's terrible, it's so harsh", "We don't dare to be disobedient", and then they dispersed in a hurry.

Xiao Ye, who was holding several fruits, looked up at the No. 1 captive in the dungeon, "Good evening, Mr. Jingmu...... Hey, you didn't sleep well yesterday?"

The middle-aged man's eyes were blue and black, as if he had been working all night for dozens of hours in a row.

"I've slept well enough. Jing Mu replied self-deprecatingly.

He raised his hand, as if he wanted to pat the shoulder of the person in front of him, but the wounded's left and right shoulders were wrapped with thick bandages, and Jing Mu's hand froze in the air for a few seconds, and he had to put it down again.

"Glad to see you're okay. Thank you. He said simply, "The dinner is about to begin, and I still have some work to do, so we'll see you soon." ”

Xiao Yemu saw Jing Mu leave in a hurry, and looked at Yang Yu and Yongzhen in a bit of confusion, "What happened?"

"Well, nothing happened. Yang Yu scratched his head, "Didn't Uncle Jingmu be injected with hypnotic drugs?" When he woke up, he knew that so many things had happened, and he felt that he was derelict in not helping......

"Actually, you don't have to think like that, and no one will blame him. If you want to blame, you can only blame the wind thief who gave Mr. Jingmu a blind injection!" Yongzhen replied.

"Although I think so too......" Yang Yu sighed, "In short, Uncle Jingmu blames himself very much, and it just so happens that someone from the police station came to investigate the situation, so-"

"He stayed up all night writing his report. ”

Sayo: "......"

The stranger was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh with his two friends.

The preparations for the dinner party were almost ready, and the two of them had nothing to do, and when they saw that Xiao Ye was going home to get the Pokémon, they went together leisurely.

"Seriously, I was stunned after listening to the patriarch tell me what happened. Yongzhen jumped on the gravel road, "You two are so powerful, you can escape from the wind thief's base camp and send us a message." ”

"It's not all on our own...... Yang Yu said hesitantly.

Considering that undercover has always been a highly confidential job, he and Xiao Ye tacitly agreed that they would not reveal the help of the "high-level", and they could only get through in confusion at the moment.

"I'm not idle, though!" Yujin turned around sharply and spread his palms to show his friend what he was holding.

It was an old, but still beautiful jade bracelet.

"Ahh Saya realized something, "Is this ......?"

"That's right, it's the bracelet that Granny Pear lost. Yong Zhen grinned through his teeth, "I snuck into the Wind Thieves' base camp this morning and found them - they're almost collapsed, but luckily the room where the 'loot' is stored is still in there." It took me a while to dig it out!"

"It's too dangerous...... What if the hole collapses again when you go in? And the patriarch said you can't go near there. Yang Yu shook his head in disapproval.

"What's the matter, it turned out to be good anyway. Yong Zhen disagreed, shook the jade bracelet in his hand with a smile, and said in a show-off tone, "How about it, Xiaoye, I said that I would help my mother-in-law find the bracelet." It's something I think about every day!"

"I think my mother-in-law will be very happy. Saya replied with a smile.

— and why she came to this Valley of Fire in the first place.

Sayo: I see, the sequelae of the overuse of the Mind Gem must be that the language system is stuttering, and the lines are all turned into ellipses.
