"This is the city of withered leaves...... "Looking at the beautiful city in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It was late afternoon when he and Sundae came out of the tunnel, and the southern city bathed in the orange light of the setting sun showed the two of them their best side.

The city is the largest port city in the Kanto region, and it has a wide variety of shipping routes, including the St. Ano yacht, which can travel around the world.

The setting sun is shining and the salty sea breeze is blowing in their faces, which really makes the two people who have been dull for a long time excited. With a happy mood, the two soon arrived at the Pokémon Center to prepare to move in again.

"Your identities have been registered, these are the room cards and trainer cards for the two of you, please take them." Miss Joy from Withered Leaf City said with a smile and handed over the card in her hand.

Minato took the card and thanked him, and after two days in the tunnel, his mind was now full of thoughts of going to various scenic spots.

"Miss Joy! Save my little Lada! ”

Suddenly, a teenager who looked like he was only in his teens rushed in. In his arms lay a little Lada, charred and dying, and he was about to cry.

I made a fool of myself and let go of the side, secretly speechless. Beat a little Lada to play this kind of ruthless hand, psychopath, this is ......

The people on the side were also talking a lot, and they had a general understanding after listening to their words. This young man seems to have gone to challenge the Withered Leaf Gym, and Ma Zhishi, the owner of the Withered Leaf Dojo, is notoriously ruthless and ruthless, and it seems that he has seriously injured another one this time.

Ma Zhishi, he had heard of this person when he narrowed his eyes, but there was no way that he was a foreigner. I heard that this man used to be a soldier captain in a Western country, a person who really climbed out of the battlefield! In addition, I only know that it is good at electric elves and has a very heavy hand, which is usually quite mysterious, and has not revealed any information.

"Hmph, what's there to cry about, the battle would have hurt by the beginning. The owner of the pavilion has shown mercy to his subordinates, and he will see if he will show mercy to the real enemy! ”

Minato's eyes widened and he looked at the sundae, and he couldn't even close his jaw when he was shocked by her words! This fighting dojo is poisonous, where did that innocent little sundae hide?!

That's true, and Minato agrees with it, but it still makes a little bump from the sundae's mouth......

Speaking of which, the sundae seems to have been a little wrong lately, how do you feel a little like yourself...... I made a stir, looking up and down at the sundae, what was wrong?

"Why do you think of me like that? Weird disgusting, be careful I pop your eyeballs! Sundae rolled his eyes and gestured back and forth with two fingers.

It's also a bit violent...... Could it be that he is really imitating himself...... The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the sundae had a strong shadow of him, so he secretly reached out and knocked the sundae on the back of the head.

Sundae immediately glanced over with slanted eyes, and when he saw that it was a match, he scratched his head boringly and asked, "What are you doing?" What's the matter? ”

"No, it's nothing, it's just, I'm going to challenge the Withered Leaf Gym tomorrow, hehe." Look at the sundae's reaction is full of black lines, and it really looks like himself, where is the sundae who will hold his head and puff out his face and get angry!!

"Challenge the Gym? Isn't it so fast that you often have to collect information about your opponents? The owner of the Withered Leaf Gym doesn't seem to be simple, are you sure? "The sundae discussed it with a serious one.

"Well, this ......" touched his nose, although it was an excuse, but it was not said casually, he really wanted to see what this man who had been through the battlefield was like, "Well, this way the battle is more interesting, isn't it?" ”

The old man Yamashita said at the beginning that it is because of the infinite possibilities in the battle that it can attract many people to love it in this way, and if it is to pursue victory but deviate from its original intention.

"Don't talk about this, Sundae, haven't you been ...... lately"

"Minato, we should have to go here together, I can't go with you anymore." The sundae was interrupted by a direct insertion.

"Oh, huh?! You're saying goodbye to me here?! "I jumped up from the chair in fright, what's the matter, how can I say it's okay before I leave?

Sundae lowered his head so that he couldn't see her expression clearly, "Well, I haven't been sorry to tell you." When I was in Jinhuang City, I contacted my family, and my family didn't want me to continue the trip, so I said that I would take a cruise back in Withered Leaf City when the time came......"

Golden City? frowned and said, "Is it because of my business at the beginning?" I think you went to the person in charge of the Shruf company, did you contact your family because of this? ”

"Hmm." Sundae nodded.

It was really because I was looking for help when I disappeared from the sewers, so I had to use the power of my family. Her father, who was a very traditional aristocrat, knew that his daughter was now running around with an unknown boy and immediately ordered the sundae to go back. No amount of arguing with the sundae is just putting this time limit on time......

"So what do you think? Want to go back? Hearing that it was his own reason, he sat back in a fit of relief.

"Of course I don't want to go! I've only got a medal now, so it's still too early to finish! However, Dad, he will never let me do this...... "The sundae has already thought about it, and I haven't talked about it with me these days, just to make my own judgment, although unfortunately there are still many places I want to go, but I can only end here."

"If you don't want to go, don't go! Is that considered for you? I won't challenge Dead Leaf City, you will slip away with me early tomorrow morning, Kanto is so big, let's play outside for half a year before going back! Said the scoundrel.

The sundae listened to the words, and the bitter face suddenly burst out laughing. Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Sundae shook his head firmly, "What stupid things are you talking about, you still want to challenge the Quartz Conference, don't you?" I'm just going home first, and I'll still have a chance to travel in the future, so you must come and accompany me to finish the second half of the trip......"

"Sundae, I'm ......" clenched his fists, of course he knew that what he said was impossible to fulfill, but it was very unpleasant for him to watch the sundae leave reluctantly, "I'll go with you tomorrow to talk to your father, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

Sundae was stunned for a moment, and smiled, "No, what my father decided is not so easy to change, not to mention that I have a plan myself......"

"Listen to me! If you can't do it, you have to try it, so it's decided! Let's have a good rest today, I'll go back to my room first. The clapper of what he couldn't say was settled, and he turned around and walked upstairs.

The sundae happened so suddenly, he didn't want to go out to play for a while, and now he is very confused. Sundae joins the team almost as soon as he first starts his travels, and it goes from dissatisfaction to acceptance to recognition, a bond between life and death. Now that I am leaving, I am about to go, and when I am halfway through the journey, this makes Minato react.

Lying on the bed, she thought secretly, no wonder Sundae desperately wanted to get a medal in the fighting dojo in Golden City, she knew that she was running out of time, so she didn't want to leave such a big regret, she was so stupid! Why didn't you ask sooner, now that people are about to leave......

Wouldn't it be better to leave? Sundae has not said that she is naturally ready to leave, is it really good to force her to stay?

"Alas~ I can't figure it out at all......" I turned over and buried my head in the pillow, muttering to myself, speechless all night......

Early the next morning, Minato and Sundae met without speaking, and each went about their own morning exercises.

At breakfast time, Sundae finally couldn't help but speak: "Why do you keep frowning and not talking, you are so reluctant to let me go?" ”

"Well, reluctantly." Minato nodded in acknowledgement.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about, I don't have many familiar friends in the first place, and Sundae is the person he trusts the most besides his family. Of course, I can't bear to get along for so long.

Sundae's face turned red when he heard this, and he punched him in disgust and said, "Now I know that I can't be reluctant, and I didn't know to be nice to me before, it's too late!" ”

"It's late...... Also, it's useless for me to think about it here, and I'll talk to your father when the time comes. If you really can't do it, it's up to you, if you don't want to go back, just tell me, and I'll do my best to help you! Minato said solemnly to the sundae.

The words make the sundae's heart warm, and the simpler and more sincere the words, the more touching they can be. Who her father was, Sundae knew best, and she already knew what the outcome would be. Now that Minato knew his intentions from his mouth, the sundae was already satisfied, and the separation might not be as uncomfortable as it might have been.

After breakfast, the two went directly to the Dead Leaf Gym, planning to take the orange badge before the sundae left in the afternoon. The four badges represent the halfway point of the trip, and you might be able to talk to the Sundae Father to make the other person feel better.

"This is it, but it looks like no one is there." The sundae looked around in front of the door of the Dead Leaf Gym, and the iron gate of the gym was closed, and there was no movement around it.

Minato quietly glanced around, three, four...... Are there five of them? Although they were very hidden, Minato easily pulled out the five little magnetic monsters that were hiding around and monitoring them with his aura sense.

Something is wrong here...... frowned slightly, took two steps forward, patted the iron door, and shouted, "Excuse me, is anyone here?!" ”

For a long time, there was no movement in the hall.

"It looks like no one is here, maybe it's out. In that case, you can go shopping with me in the morning, it seems like we haven't been out for a long time. Sundae said.

"Oh, okay......" nodded in agreement, and looked at the direction of the little magnetic monsters in confusion, and always felt that something was wrong......
