Shortly after Charizard hatched from its eggs, when it was a baby dragon, Saya noticed something different. It is not averse to water, can easily come into contact with water, and is not afraid of water attacks. At that time, Xiao Ye had asked Dr. Oki to do a detailed physical examination of the little fire dragon, and the results showed that the little fire dragon's resistance to water was indeed slightly stronger than that of other fire-type Pokémon. In numerical terms, it can be expressed as water damage x1.5 instead of x2.

After the Tyrannosaurus returned, Charizard excitedly fought with it several times. While amazed by the changes in the Tyrannosaurus, Sayo discovers that Charizard's resistance to the Tyrannosaurus's attacks has become lower.

Pichu, who was watching the battle, was shocked to think that it was the Tyrannosaurus Cypron's strength that had suddenly exploded, but upon closer inspection, Saya thought that it was not just due to the Tyrannosaurus's improvement.

So, Sayo once again troubles Dr. Oki to do a physical examination for Charizard, so he offers to help Dr. Oki clean up the entire research institute - this is really a terrible job, and Saya is almost scared out of the psychological shadow. After a lot of hard work to finally get the test results, Xiao Ye found that her judgment was not wrong.

Charizard's resistance to the Water attribute has indeed been reduced. If it used to be x1.5, now it's x1.8.

Such a wonderful change makes Saya have to think about the origin of Charizard's special physique again. At first, she wondered if it could be a genetic mutation, but it was clear that the abilities engraved in the genes should not disappear with evolution. If it is not a congenital condition, it may be an acquired influence.

Xiao Ye immediately recalled the day the little fire dragon hatched. At birth, the baby dragon's egg came into contact with the water of the lake in the ruins of the back mountain, which is said to be related to a mythical beast that symbolizes the sea, and the Pokémon with evolutionary disorder violently absorb energy from the surrounding air when hatching. After combining several known facts, Sayo has a vague guess about the source of Charizard's ability to resist water.

Maybe it has something to do with that ruin.

In the past year, Saya has only set foot in the ruins once, and has never been there since—this is also related to the fact that Saya was not able to enter the ruins at the time. And now, with a Pokémon that can fly, Saya can reach the underwater altar surrounded by mountains directly from the air, without having to find a way to open the heavy stone door.

Considering that Charizard's condition is really reassuring, Saya decides to go to the ruins to investigate in detail. This was originally last night's trip, but as he approached the ruins, the Tyrannosaurus in the Poké Ball suddenly shook violently.

Its body tensed, as if it were on guard against some unknown danger, and as if it was trying to hide its awe.

The Tyrannosaurus tells Sayo not to go near there.

Its abnormality forced Saya to abandon her plans for the night and return home to rest. The Tyrannosaurus couldn't explain why it was warning Saya like this, maybe it was just instinct from the creature's body. But after thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Ye still thinks that she should go to the ruins.

The Tyrannosaurus was so nervous, perhaps because there was something in the ruins that threatened its life. So, to be on the safe side, next time you don't bring any Pokémon and go and explore it alone.

May 29, evening.

The well-fed Charizard was lying comfortably on the roof blowing the wind, and Xiao Ya, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but reach out and poke Charizard's bulging belly.

Is it true that you won't get fat if you go on like this?

Charizard let out a soft snort at the poke of the night, blinking his eyes and looking dazed.

The training in her hometown has lasted for more than ten days, and Xiao Ye has adjusted her previous habits - she originally planned to go to the back beach to train Pokémon after breakfast, and train until night and then come back to sleep, but after doing so, she met the double stares of the golden retriever siblings after two days.

"Since we all live together, how can there be any reason not to eat together!" Xiaoling said. Although Sayo felt that there was something wrong with this logic, she finally gave in and obediently rushed home to have dinner together before sunset.

Charizard was pleased with the result, so it could spend more time lounging on its favorite rooftop. Fortunately, the location of Sayo's house is remote enough, surrounded by empty grass, enough for all eight Pokémon to find their favorite location.

Looking at the location of the setting sun, Xiao Ye was thinking about whether to find a secluded place to practice the power of the waveguide, when a claw suddenly stretched out next to him, and he carefully poked Xiao Ya's arm while learning from Xiao Ye's movements just now.

Xiao Ye turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the appearance of the fire-breathing dragon's eye, so he had to smile helplessly and shake his head.

"Charizard, you know what, 'I like to listen to music' and your current single-cell setup is terrible. ”

“...... Huh?"

Charizard didn't understand his master's whimsical nonsense, but the familiar instrument that Saya pulled out of his coat pocket made Charizard immediately put aside all doubts and sit down in anticipation.

The pale green bamboo flute is just a stall, the quality is worrying, and the sound quality can only be barely heard. And although Xiao Ya will play the flute for the Pokémon from time to time, there is actually only one song she can play.

In some sense, such an instrument and a musician are the best partners.

However, Charizard never cares about these little things. When the girl lowered her eyes and the soft flute sound slowly flowed out, it unconsciously narrowed its eyes, as if there was no better enjoyment than this.

The noisy Pokémon around them gradually quieted down, and even the Tyrannosaurus stopped fighting with the big bird. They are not musicians, so they can't read whether Sayo's playing skills are superb, but they can hear the gentle and stable feeling hidden in the melody. In the evening breeze, the sound of the flute was clear and pleasant, as if someone whispered "I will protect you" in his ear, and Leolu, who was the most vigilant, couldn't help but relax his muscles and indulge in the gentle glow of the setting sun.

The melodious melody fades as the sky dims. Looking at the fire-breathing dragon whose breathing rate has become long, Xiao Ye was a little skeptical for a moment if this guy was already asleep. Before he could poke it, he was hugged by arms that came out from behind him.

"Listen so badly! I was so fascinated that I almost fell off the roof. The girl with two ponytails put her chin on Xiao Ye's shoulder, and her face became bulging, "But Xiao Ye, you never told us that you could play the flute." ”

"Actually, I'll only blow this one, not even a half-ass. Xiao Ye lifted his old bottom without any pressure.

"That's pretty remarkable. Xiaojie, who had just climbed halfway through the roof, hung on the eaves, and actually magically waved a free hand, "My mother said that she also tried to play the bamboo flute when she was a child, and as a result, she blew the flute membrane away. ”

Sayo: "......"

This, what an amazing lung capacity?

Xiao Ye didn't know whether she should be in awe or frightened, so she had to put on a mysterious smile in the end.

Both Golden Retrievers finally climbed the roof intact and sat crowded next to Xiao Ye - probably because there was really no room in the room to sit, and the sloping roof was more ergonomically constructed than a flat floor.

"Don't you want to do it again?"

"Forget it, I think if you blow it any longer, everyone will fall asleep. ”

“...... Don't say I'm really sleepy. ”

After shaking his head vigorously to drive away the sleepiness, Xiao Jie's hedgehog head stood up again with a bright look, "Xiao Ye, have you planned how to play tomorrow?"

"Play?" "Xiao Ye was stunned.

“...... Shouldn't you forget that tomorrow is the May Festival, right?" Xiao Jie's originally round eyes immediately turned into half-moon eyes.

And when I heard the term "May Festival", I was addicted to training until the night was dark, and then I realized what day tomorrow would be.

The May Festival is a festival unique to Shinshintown. Every year on the 30th of May, the townspeople celebrate around the town's only square. At this time, the square and surrounding alleys are filled with various stalls, and people from the surrounding towns gather to make it a small summer festival.

Almost everyone in Zhenxin Town gets a holiday on this day, and the bustling crowd pours into the festival, which is not usually cold and quiet.

"It's tomorrow. Xiao Ye muttered quietly.

Although she is a resident of Shinshin Town, Xiao Ye has only lived in this town for a year, and has only experienced the May Festival once. At this time last year, she hadn't gotten the egg of Xiao Huolong, and she wasn't too familiar with Xiao Zhi Xiaoyun and others, and Xiao Tian didn't return to Zhenxin Town at all. It wasn't until she tried to think about it that she realized that she could barely remember what she had done at last year's May Festival, and she wasn't even sure if she had participated in it.

It couldn't have been a long bed ......?

A vague memory made Xiao Ye start to think cranky.

"Whatever you say turns out to be tomorrow. Xiaojie couldn't help laughing, "This is an important festival unique to Zhenxin Town, how can you look like a person from another town than us." ”

It was a joke that became a little sluggish in the second half, so that the blonde boy couldn't help but lick his lips.

Living alone in the middle of nowhere, in a remote suburb away from the town center, the furniture in the house is ascetic, and he doesn't care about festivals at all...... This guy used to live in such an empty way.

Recalling what Xiao Tian had said to him when he first arrived in Zhenxin Town, Xiao Jie lowered his eyes and let away some complicated emotions.

"I just saw that almost all the arrangements needed for the festival have been made, let's go out together tomorrow!" the golden retriever girl happily proposed, but did not forget to glance at Xiao Ye, "I hope no one says, 'I'm going to train Pokémon, so I won't go.'" ”

"Ahem, why, I don't like training that much. Xiao Ye hurriedly made a statement to prevent being thrown off the roof angrily by the golden haired brand's telekinesis.

"Then it's decided, and the Pokémon should be given a holiday once in a while. Xiaojie nodded, "How about we leave tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning to find Xiaotian?"

"No problem!"

Small Theatre:

The well-fed Charizard was lying comfortably on the roof blowing the wind, and Xiao Ya, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but reach out and poke Charizard's bulging belly.

Is it true that you won't get fat if you go on like this?

Dr. Oki: (stopping) Saya, there's one more question about your Charizard's medical report......

Sayo: Tell me.

Dr. Oki: Your Charizard already weighs more than ten kilograms above average, and now its belly should feel about the same as Kirbymon's.

Night: ......

Charizard: QAQQQ?!
