Ikki takes Leo back to the Elf Center and immediately hands him over to Joey, who has just returned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a simple treatment, he finally took care of the abrasions on his mouth, and told Ikki not to eat until he was healed, and to come over regularly for nutritional injections.
There was no way to do this, Yihui looked at Leo Lu with a wry smile, and had to agree.
Although it is a bruise, the wound is actually quite serious, and if it is not treated, it may expand the infected area, so it can not be cured by rubbing some medicine.
Not being able to eat was a real headache for Leolu, but it couldn't be helped, who told the situation that it was the only way to do it.
Hua Ling and Yudou also came to the Elf Center at this time. Youdou also took back the eagle who was waiting at the door.
"Ikki, how's it going? Is he okay?"
Hua Ling trotted over to Ikki, took Leo Lu from him, and looked at it carefully.
"Alright, Hua Ling, Leo Lu has no problem with him. ”
Yuto found a bench and sat down, smiling at the two of them.
"Thank you, I owe you a favor now. ”
Leo Lu broke free from Hua Ling's grasp, walked over and jumped on the bench, and sat down not far from Youdou.
When he was said like this, Youdou suddenly didn't know how to continue the words, and said hesitantly: "No...... That one...... How do you say it......" After thinking for a while, he couldn't find any good words, so he sighed, "You don't have to care, and I didn't do it for no reason." ”
"What's the reason for that?"
Kazuki also came between the two of them, grinning at the overwhelmed Yuto.
"This ...... Hey, I can't explain it. ”
"Hmm...... Youdou is still so unfrank, obviously he and Ikki are friends, why can't he say it?"
Yuto has no resistance to Hana-Ling at all, just like Yukino has no resistance to cute things, as long as he sees Hana-Ling's inadvertent appearance, his face suddenly turns red.
"Forget it, I won't embarrass you like I did before. Kazuki picked Leo up and looked at Yuto seriously, "But I want you to face us with your truest side, and stop pretending, okay?"
Youdou was stunned: "What do you mean by this? Except for some things about me that you can't say, aren't the others the same as what you see?"
Kazuki shook his head, "I mean I hope you don't pretend like this anymore, don't you feel tired?"
"Eh, Yuto has something else to look like? It's the first time I've heard of it. ”
Hua Ling leaned her face closer to Youdou, wanting to see something different as Ikki said.
"Flowers, flowers, it's too close!"
Yuto turned his face away, exhaled a few deep breaths of turbidity, and calmed down before he began to face Ikki.
"Heh, Leolu must have told you," Yuto said angrily, looking at the elf in Ikki's arms who was pretending to look at the scenery, "Looks like I'll have to be careful next time I'm alone with you." ”
He stood up, looked at Ikki's clear eyes as deep as the starry sky, and said helplessly, "Okay, just as you wish." ”
Stretching out his hand to Ikki, Yuto smiled and said, "Then let's do it all over again, I'm Yuto, please advise!"
Kazuki also smiled and stretched out his left hand: "The first time we met, I was Kazuki, a trainer from Golden City, and my goal was to become the champion of the Alliance Challenge!"
The two hands clasped together amicably, but then a black paw reached out and rested on the hands of both of them.
"Leolu?" "...... you"
Glancing at the two of them angrily, Leolu said slowly: "Isn't this a matter of course, I'm also a companion on a trip, don't ignore me because I'm an elf!"
Hua Ling also ran over, her slender hands on Leolu's paws.
"Then I'm going to come too, and I'm going to invite you to give me a lot of advice in the future!"
They glanced at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
"Ah, by the way, your gift hasn't been given to you yet!"
Hua Ling suddenly remembered the gift box that she had just put in front of the counter and forgot to take, so she hurriedly ran over.
"Whew~ Fortunately, I didn't lose it. ”
Holding two boxes that were not heavy, Hua Ling handed them to Yihui and Yudou.
"Huh?
Yuto put the box to his ear and shook it, listening to the sound should not be a heavy object.
"Well, this is what Ikki bought for you, open it and take a look. ”
Yuto looked at Ikki suspiciously, and slowly untied the ribbon after the other party turned his head in embarrassment.
Kazuki handed the relatively small box to Leo Lu and ran into his room with a puff of smoke.
"This kid, what is God doing mysteriously. ”
"Oh, maybe it's the first time people give a gift to someone else, Yuto is really cautious. ”
"Hmm...... I'd better continue to dismantle it. ”
After some time, Yuto finally removed the ribbon and slowly opened the lid, revealing the contents of the table.
"Heh, he's really careful......"
"Well, he's picked a very hard ......."
On the other hand, Yihui quickly ran back to the room and immediately closed the door tightly, put Leo Lu on the side of the bed, and threw himself on the bed, covering his head with a pillow.
"Kazuki, what's wrong with you, shouldn't you be embarrassed. ”
"Tsk, it's the first time I've given someone a gift, so I'm a little nervous......
Leo Lu shook the box in his hand and said, "Shouldn't you be very nervous now? ”
I don't know if it's because I'm uncomfortable with the pillow or if I figured it out, Ikki slowly got up and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Leolu's words don't matter, but Yuto still feels a little uncomfortable. ”
Kazuki looked at the white ceiling and said in distress.
However, Kazuki didn't notice the gloomy look in Leolu's eyes.
"You open it, I hope you like it. ”
After sorting out his mood, Leo Lu nodded and began to unpack it, but ......
"That...... I can't seem to do it......"
After a few attempts, Leolu was once again convinced that with a few stubby fingers, he really couldn't do something as delicate as unpacking, but he couldn't rule out the possibility that the package was too strong.
Ikki had no choice but to do it for him. After removing the ribbon, he placed the box back on Leolu.
"That's it. ”
Looking at Ikki's mysterious smile, Leo Lu could only shrug his shoulders and open the lid.
It wasn't anything of a luxury, just a red bow tie, but the workmanship was quite exquisite, and Leolu's eyes lit up.
"I thought that Leo Lu you may not have anything you need, even if you buy it back, it can only add to the burden of travel, looking for it or I still think the jewelry is better, and finally I chose this bow with Hua Ling, don't think I'm stingy." ”
Slowly picking up the bow tie, Leolu looked at the bow tie and then at Ikki, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"You...... If you don't like it, I'll take it and return it. ”
Seeing that he didn't react for a long time, Yihui thought that he had done something wrong, and just wanted to take the bow tie in his hand, but he dodged it.
"I didn't say I didn't like it, I just didn't know if it was appropriate, thank you. ”
Behind the bow tie is something similar to a hairpin, which he can still do by himself.
Pinning the bow tie to the collar-like yellow hair around his neck, Leolu turned to Kazuki and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Hmm...... Wait a minute, it's a little crooked...... I'll tweak it...... Well, well, it's perfect for you!"
To the excited Kazuki, Leolu nodded.
"Then I'll wear it for the time being, and I'll show them later. But Kazuki" Leolu's tone suddenly became serious, "Although I thank you very much for the gift, I still hope that you can save a little money, even if you forget it this time, it will not be easy for Yukino and them......"
Yihui smiled lightly: "I didn't spend money indiscriminately, this time I asked my mother for their consent before buying it, Leo Lu don't have to worry!"
It's completely wrong, but it's a little embarrassing now.
"Okay, okay, it's great that you can do that. The special training will start in the afternoon, and the gym competition can't be left behind!"
"Well, I'll do my best. I forgot that there were gifts from the little fire dragon and Lu Lili! Wait for me, I'll be back in a moment!"
I just wanted to stop Ichiki, but he had already rushed out.
"That's really...... Should he say that he grew up and began to think about others, or should he say that he was infected by Yuto?"
Jumping out of bed, Leo Lu stood in front of a full-length mirror by the wall, taking a good look at his outfit.
"A scarf with a bow tie or something...... I guess it's a bit of a curiosity......"
It's really nice to wear only one of them, and Ikki still has an eye for appreciation.
Stretching, Leo Lu jumped on the bed, spun into Ikki's quilt, and curled up in a ball.
"Let's rest for a while, Ichiki's special training still needs to go over to help......"
―――――――――――――――――――――――
At this time, in Dead Leaf City, the trio of Team Rocket was sneaking into the kitchen of the Elf Center.
"Kojiro, where did you think the boss told us to find?"
Musashi took out the leftovers from the various storage cabinets and refrigerators and devoured them as if he had found a delicious food on earth.
"How do I know, the boss told us to find it, did you tell us where it was......"
"Don't be discouraged, Kojiro, that thing must be valuable, if we can find it and give it to the boss, the past debt may be written off. ”
"Meow meow, you're right, Musashi, we're going to work hard to find it!"
Just then, the kitchen door was suddenly opened.
"I just received a call that I heard a thief's voice in the kitchen of the Elf Center, and sure enough, it's right!"
Junsha took the handcuffs out of her overalls.
"Now I will formally arrest you for theft!"
