After returning to the Pokémon Center, it was almost night, and Xiaoxin had already returned, and after seeing the two of them hurriedly running into the Pokémon Center, she smiled meaningfully at the two.

Christmas Eve cannot be said to be peaceful, because of the sudden heavy snowfall, resulting in some activities can not be held as scheduled, and the citizens can only stay by their own stoves, quietly looking at the snowflakes that continue to fall in the air, poignant and pure.

Xiaoxin bought the birthday gift she wanted to give to Xiaolan as she wished, and then the gossip heart ignited, and asked the sundae about this afternoon.

The snow didn't last long, and the next morning, the sky was once again revealing the sun it hadn't seen in a long time, and the warm sunlight sprinkled around the window, melting the snow that had piled up in front of the window.

Ozawa, who stretched his waist, went downstairs after washing up in a daze, but now the three girls actually got up earlier than him, which is really rare.

"Happy birthday, little blue."

"Thank you, brother!"

There is no need for such flowery sentences to congratulate Xiaolan, the brother and sister just say hello as usual, if Ozawa says some gorgeous words at this time, it will attract Xiaolan's dissatisfaction.

What the two like the most is this kind of ordinary life.

When it comes to how to spend the birthday, then of course, it depends on how Xiaolan wants to spend it.

And the answer Ozawa got was as expected, that is, play.

After breakfast, the four of them decided to rest for a day in Yanmo City, and then started to go out to Silver Mountain, there were less than three weeks left before the start of the Silver Tournament, and it would take two weeks to get to Silver Mountain from here at the earliest.

Just as he was about to get out, the door of the Pokémon Center was opened, and a person wrapped tightly in his body came in from the outside, and walked straight to everyone.

“surprise！ Little Blue Sister! Happy birthday! ”

That person said such a sentence without warning, which immediately startled everyone, and Ozawa immediately blocked in front of Xiaolan.

"Who are you!?"

"Don't play the same meme twice! My little sea! ”

took off his sunglasses and hood, revealing a fiery red head, which was the same Xiaohai he saw yesterday, but it was ...... Why does the outfit look so funny......

"It's just in time, as an original resident of Yanmo City, you should know where there is anything fun, how can you say that you don't seem to be gone after serving us a cup of coffee, introduce where it's more fun."

"Even if you say that, I can't think of anything more fun for a while!"

Xiaohai is not wrong in this sentence, he rarely comes back when he travels abroad, and he only comes back about once a year, and he can't remember how many fun places there are.

"Anyway, let's go outside first, this year's Christmas seems to be very lively."

Xiaohai took the lead and walked out of the Pokémon Center, and the helpless everyone had to follow.

As Xiaohai said, since the heavy snow stopped last night, the event can now be held as usual, and the Christmas tree is dotted with countless trinkets and placed in front of each house, and people seem to be preparing for a grand event.

As night falls, the Milky Way can be clearly seen in the dark sky, which is dotted with countless stars, blooming with a beautiful light.

The people who had been playing crazy all day also looked a little tired, maybe too tired, Xiaolan fell asleep on Ozawa's back, and kept smiling until he fell asleep, and he could see that he was really happy today.

The little hand is clenched on Ozawa's clothes, as if he is afraid of losing, and the smile on his face has not faded even when he is asleep, and he looks extremely cute.

"Really, I'm asleep before I even eat the cake."

Carrying such a cute creature on his back, Ozawa said with some tears and laughter, and everyone didn't bother much when they saw that Xiaolan was already asleep, and returned to the Pokémon Center, handing Xiaolan to the sundae, while Ozawa went out to send Xiaohai.

"It's almost time before the start of the Chengdu League, when do you plan to come out?"

"Maybe the day after tomorrow, anyway, it won't take long to walk from here to Silver Mountain, I'm looking forward to the Silver Conference, not just you, Sundae, Yuye, are all strong enemies."

"yes, then you can look forward to it......"

Ozawa returns to the Pokémon Center after seeing off Xiaohai, and everyone rests for the night in Yanmo City, but the next morning, Ozawa packs his bags and prepares to leave, but is told by Miss Joy that someone is looking for him.

Although I don't know who it is, Ozawa obediently came to the phone and dialed the number, but it was Dr. Ohki who appeared in front of him, and Ozawa remembered that Dr. Ohki didn't seem to be this number.

"Dr. Oki? How could you call me from this unfamiliar number? ”

"It's Ozawa, I just expected that you haven't left Yanmo City yet, I'm here in Kongmu right now, and he seems to have something to ask you for."

Please? I guess it's some kind of hard work again.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Ozawa, I'm sorry, I want to ask you because of some things, can I trouble you to go to the Pokémon Marine Research Institute and go there to help me retrieve an elf egg."

"Elf eggs? No problem, but what about after you get it? Do you want to return to Wakaba Town? ”

"That's not necessary, you just need to send this egg to the Silver Mountain, because this egg was stolen from the Silver Mountain Reserve, go there, and give the egg to Miss Muto."

Silver Mountain Reserve, where there is indeed a protected area in Banjira, even if the alliance has been strictly protected in recent years, it is inevitable that some Pokémon will be captured by poachers.

Besides, he is also going to Baiyin Town under the Silver Mountain, just by the way, there is nothing to complain about, and Ozawa already vaguely knows the identity of the egg.

After Dr. Oki squeezes Dr. Soragi out, he takes over the phone.

"Ozawa, first of all, congratulations on getting eight badges, and secondly, I'm really sorry for not being able to say happy birthday to Xiaolan, I've prepared the illustrated book for her, and it's also a gift for her tenth birthday."

"It's okay, I'll tell Xiaolan, then Dr. Oki, goodbye."

Ozawa hung up the phone and thought about the distance, if it was just a trip to the oceanographic research institute, it should not take long, and according to the remaining time, it would be more than enough.

At this time, the sundae and the others were ready to come out, and Ozawa still told the three of them what Dr. Kumu had asked them to do, and the three of them did not object.

After inspecting the location of the Institute of Oceanography, it is not very far from Yanmo City, and it is enough to walk for two or three days.

On this day, after passing through a city, Ozawa and his party finally found a building similar to a research institute by the sea, and it was also marked with a sign of the oceanographic research institute, which seemed to be right.

"Anyone?"

The door to the institute was not closed, but left open at random, as if there was no fear of thieves coming in and stealing something, but in fact there was nothing worth stealing.

After a long time, no one responded.

"Isn't it there? Someone should be there at this point in time, right? ”

Sundae looked at the fact that there was no one else except the four people on his side, and he was a little puzzled, it was twelve o'clock at noon, this was the time to eat, and ordinary people were not there at this point in time!

"You must have been sent by Dr. Kuki, right?"

Everyone looked back, and now they don't know when, a short red woman in a white coat was standing behind everyone, still holding some instruments in her hands.

"Yes! We were asked by Dr. Kugi to come here to get an elf egg. ”

"My name is Cheng Mei, and I am the director of the Institute of Oceanography, come with me."

Maybe Dr. Soragi and Narumi have talked about Ozawa and them, and they don't even suspect it. After following Narumi to the inside of the research institute, there was a wooden box on the table.

Cheng Mei carefully opened the wooden box, and there was a dark green elf egg lying quietly inside, which was similar to what Ozawa guessed, it should be Yukira's egg.

With a bang, a Poké Ball on Ozawa's waist suddenly opened, and Banjira, who was close to three meters high, suddenly jumped out of the Poke Ball, startling everyone, but fortunately Banjira did not break the ceiling, and sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the eggs on the table with his eyes, showing a nostalgic gaze.

"It seems that this elf egg can be preliminarily determined to be Kira."

Sundae was also a little convinced of the Pokémon in the egg when he saw this scene.

"This egg was originally stolen by poachers from the protected area of Silver Mountain, so this egg will be handed over to you Ozawa."

Narumi puts the eggs in a nursery bottle and gives them to Ozawa.

"Leave it to me, and I'll send him back to Silver Mountain!"

Silver Mountain...... It's really a familiar and unfamiliar place for Bangira, who also came out of the Silver Mountain and met Ozawa by chance.

Should come or will come......
