━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The cool breeze of early spring swept through the deserted streets of Aster Town, the closed doors and windows of Aster Town, and the lonely Merlin.

It's like a dead city, a living, living dead city.

There are very few shops here that do business with their doors open, and it seems that there are no local stores here in Aster Town, except for the official stores opened by the Alliance. The houses on the street were guarding their doors, and the occasional passers-by on the road were all solemn and wary of each other, and if Merlin intended to approach a passer-by, the gentleman or lady would stare at Merlin with a restless and wary look, and at the same time quickly flee from him.

There is no language, no friendliness, no enthusiasm, only cold precautions, vigilance and vigilance.

Compared with the indifference, selfishness, and insecurity of the people in the so-called modern, fast-paced big city, a small place like Ziyuan Town is full of pure estrangement and antagonism, and they seem to refuse to contact anything other than themselves, and only want to return to their familiar and safe home as soon as possible.

"Ruthless ...... of the town," he makes a brief assessment before Merlin steps into the Friendship Store to prepare for the big purchase.

Strange places naturally have strange residents, let alone an ominous and strange place like Aster. So Merlin didn't have much other idea that people would behave like this, "If you hate it, why don't you move out quickly?" "Probably Merlin's biggest question.

But as soon as his eyes were drawn to the neatly arranged shelves full of merchandise in the friendly store, he immediately had no other doubts.

......Although the kind reminder from Vizel echoed in his mind, Merlin did not take it to heart at all, let alone put it into action, but devoted himself to the purchase with more and more enthusiasm.

At the same time that Merlin pushed up the two shopping carts and began his frantic purchase, a young man walked in outside the sensor door of the self-friendly store, a man in a black trench coat with a lazy temperament staggered in, and muttered some muttered muttering muttering.

A teenager who is more like an enthusiastic teenager cleaning the shelves, a young man who has no energy to stand and fall asleep at any time, and these two strange customers are the only ones in the friendly store who are shopping except for the three clerks who stick to their posts. So when Merlin, who was pushing two carts full of booty, walked to the cashier, the young man who was lazily holding a few boxes of Pork Ball Paint for the Exterior also happened to walk to the counter.

Facing the cash register, which was only open, the two stopped at the same time.

Merlin looked up slightly at the young man, and the young man tried to look at Merlin with his eyes open.

[Seems a little familiar? This is Merlin's heart.

[Where do you seem to have seen this little man?] This is the voice of young people.

[Ah, I remembered.] One of the young official special officers, one of the captains of the special forces team, and the new star of the alliance - Yao. Merlin raised his eyebrows without a trace, "Why is he here?" Are the Investigators, or the Einsatzgruppen, starting to infiltrate the town? 】

Oh, that's right. Ability imp, Nazi's follower, the leader said to keep an eye on the ......] Yao yawned tiredly, [What is this little ghost called? Why did he come to Aster at this time? Then another long yawn.

For a moment, the two guys who looked at each other fell into silence, motionless and moving their own careful thoughts.

"That ......" Mr. clerk, who couldn't bear the strange silence, broke the silence first, and cautiously with a little temptation opened his mouth first: "Which of the two will settle the bill first?" ”

"He first." The two replied in unison very tacitly.

The two of them, who noticed that each other's words were exactly the same, slammed suddenly, and then said in unison again: "I'll go first." ”

After reappearing and entering a strange synchronization with each other, the two fell into silence again with a rather tacit understanding.

"Well, let's let the children go first......" The young clerk with pimples on his face hesitated to express his opinion, "He bought a lot of things......

But when his gaze wandered to the so-called "little friend", he shivered inexplicably, and the little boy with a gloomy face seemed to be very angry.

"Okay." Yao didn't care about shrugging his shoulders, and said very easily: "Just let the 'little friend' go first." He bit the sound of the word child in a strange way, and at the same time looked down at Merlin condescendingly.

Exhaling a deep breath of turbidity, Merlin stubbornly suppressed the idea of teaching himself a lesson to the unabashed clerk and the important new star of the alliance who deliberately found fault, and grabbed the handle of the shopping cart with both hands, and walked steadily and solemnly towards the clerk with a professional smile on his face full of acne pits. As Merlin approached, the invisible "low pressure" he unconsciously emitted seemed to gradually affect the targeted clerk, and the young guy soon began to tremble in his calves, sweat, and dry mouth.

Yao, who was also one of the deliberate targets of "low pressure", didn't seem to be affected in any way, he just raised his eyebrows and then looked at Merlin with interest......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

After paying the bill and packing the bags, Merlin stood outside the door of the Friendship Store, looking out at the town of Aster with the help of the height of the stairs under his feet. The old town is very old, with a few traces of indescribable solemnity and lifelessness on the surface, and even less vitality. In a large open area on the outskirts of the town, Merlin has a relatively small old Pokémon Tower, scattered around it, and tombstones and tombs scattered around. It's just that the building that has been abandoned and is about to fall apart seems to have gone through a battle, and it has even been carefully cordoned off the perimeter.

"The bone tower, judging by the location, should be for the townspeople's own use, right?" After wandering in the direction of the tower a few more times, Merlin retracted his gaze and continued to browse the deserted streets of the town.

At this time, two middle-aged men in overcoats walked in the distance. The middle-aged men with hurried steps and solemn expressions were talking quickly while hurrying along the way, and they were talking quickly with their voices lowered. Just as the two middle-aged men approached while talking, the sensor door behind Merlin opened from the inside, and the lazy Yao walked out with lazy steps.

Yao's appearance immediately aroused the great alarm of the middle-aged people, who glanced at Merlin and Yao, and then immediately closed their mouths, and increased their pace again, like a trot, swept in front of Merlin's eyes, and disappeared around the corner of the street.

Merlin's gaze naturally chased after the two hurried passers-by, and he did not withdraw his gaze until the hem of their clothes disappeared around the corner.

"Deserted town, huh." Yao, who put his hands in his pockets, seemed to be talking to himself, "There is no human touch." ”

Merlin glanced up at Yao, trying to move away from him without a trace.

"The fear, vigilance and disgust of these locals for outsiders are simply undisguised, not at all. It's like I can turn into goblins at any time and swallow them in one bite. Yao didn't care about Merlin's small movements at all, but continued to talk to himself, "They only seem to trust their family and familiar people. Or to the extreme, they only trust themselves. ”

After maintaining a distance of about half a meter from Yao, Merlin was relieved, and instead of moving his body, he began to listen to Yao's own words, and at the same time pondered the purpose of the alliance agent's conversation with him.

"It's not like I haven't met a guy from Ziyuan before, I thought it was just that these guys were so awkward, it turns out that people in this place are like this." Yao stretched out his arms and stretched his waist, this action immediately aroused Merlin's conscious defense, but after showing that he was just a false alarm, Merlin quickly withdrew the countermeasure, "But it's also strange......" Yao, who stretched his waist and seemed to be a little more energetic, continued, "Some time ago, the strange guys of Aster obviously relied on an outsider to solve a big trouble that had plagued them for a long time, and by the way, they changed their temperament, how did they return to the normal state of xenophobia so quickly?" ”

Yao, who asked the question, shifted his gaze to Merlin, as if expecting Merlin's response.

Merlin naturally noticed Yao's expectation, and after rolling his eyes slightly, he asked very cooperatively, "Outsiders?" Big trouble? ”

"Hmm." Yao, who had a response, seemed to be more confident, he brewed his feelings, and said, "About half a year ago, or four or five months ago?" I can't remember exactly the time...... In short, it wasn't too long ago...... "Yao put his hands deep into the pockets of his trench coat, and continued to tell the stories of others in a deep gesture.

"Two teenagers from Zhenxin Town passed through this icy town one after the other. The first of them was tasked by the townsfolk with a visit to the haunted Pokémon Graveyard area and the Tower of Bones due to his famous background and reputation as a trainer, only to be heard of as soon as he went. However, the teenager who came here a few days later bravely broke into the bone tower, which had been listed as a forbidden place by the locals, and not only successfully rescued the trapped villagers, but also debunked the so-called haunted rumors - it turned out that the so-called ghosts and ghosts were all ghost tricks created by the evil party of the Rocket Legion that occupied the bone tower. The two teenagers join forces to fight and defeat the evil party entrenched here in the Bone Tower, and reveal the truth about why they live here. ”

Yao lifted his gaze and shifted it to the Pokémon Tower, which Merlin had noticed earlier, that had become a dilapidated house, that is, the Bone Tower.

"It turns out that those evil parties who are unscrupulous for profit, actually take advantage of the secret and relatively convenient geographical location and indifferent neighborhood environment of Aster to engage in the most evil deeds in the bone tower. They! They!! Yao raised his voice and looked angry, "They actually use this place as a transit station to transport and sell Pokémon poached from light red, wild wilderness areas, and nature reserves!" Not only that, but they did the bloodiest and dirtiest thing with the Bone Tower, stripping the bloody bone helmets from the bodies of the living Galagala and Korakola......"

Merlin blinked when he heard the news, and he was not too shocked, because the news that Yao confided belonged to Merlin in terms of both his background and his knowledge. He had even seen a lot of so-called crafts made of bone helmets with his own eyes. However, as a trainer of Dalles, as a human who thinks he still has a trace of conscience, Merlin can naturally feel anger after hearing about such cruel things.

"Well, it's not like scaring you." Yao was indignant for a while, and then returned to normal, and his tone returned to the narrative, "Actually, the ghost theory that has been circulating in Shion is not all false, at least some of it is true. The souls of Galagala and Korakola wander among the Bone Towers, weeping and screaming, telling the living creatures of their pain and grievances......"

Merlinton felt the hairs on his body stand on end.

"At first, I didn't believe it." Yao shrugged, "But several witnesses and relevant experts have confirmed these things to me, so I have to believe it." There are many wonderful things in this world. He grinned.

"After a fierce battle, the two teenagers defeated the evil party entrenched here, not only cut off the important smuggling chain and bloody underground factory of the Rocket Legion, but also saved the souls who have been wandering here, and they also saved a well-known person in the town by the way, and finally it was a happy ending......"

Obviously, Yao is not a storyteller, and the high-profile opening digression and speechless ending are completely useless, but that doesn't stop Merlin from extracting useful information from Yao's messy narrative.

Like "The Two Teenagers of True New Town", Merlin estimates that the most likely ones are Red and Green. Because according to the old man's words and the information compiled by lacquer, it is shown that the two of them have gained great popularity among the people during their travels, especially Chi has attracted a huge hatred from the two evil forces, so his whereabouts are still unknown. So judging from their origins and some characteristics and ways of doing things, it should be the two of them......

And just when Merlin was firm in his judgment, Yao suddenly spoke: "By the way, by the way, one of the two teenagers from Zhenxin Town is called Midori, and he is an excellent descendant of the Damu family. The other is called Chi, who is the most prestigious rookie in Guandu. Listen to his name 'Battle Ghost' and 'Yaksha', and I'm really looking forward to fighting him......" Yao couldn't help but snort.

Merlin, on the other hand, glared at Yao viciously, as a way to express his petty anger. Yao, who was still immersed in his fantasies, did not notice Merlin's actions.

Forcing himself to hold back his anger, Merlin continued to sort out his present.

The Rocket Legion's smuggling of Pokémon and the sale of Pokémon products was of no value to him, but he was more concerned about the Rocket Legion's strange deployment and recent defeat. According to the information provided by Uchi, the Rocket Corps, which had raided many important locations, facilities and towns of the Alliance in a high-profile manner a few months ago, seemed to be rapidly disintegrating, and the alliance locations that it had originally occupied were recovered by the Alliance, some hidden bases and research centers were uprooted, and a large number of pawns were captured...... It seems, as the official media preached, that "the Rocket Corps is about to be defeated." Instinctively, though, Merlin still felt that something was wrong.

How could an organization with such a huge foundation that has the ability to suddenly burst out and hurt the foundation of the alliance so simply and so quickly decay after it has come to the stage? Why could such a huge organization be turned upside down by a few young people, and even an important base was taken down? Why would an organization strong enough to go head-to-head against the Alliance lose its ability to follow up after a performance? Is the alliance really unstoppable, or is there some ulterior plan behind it?

Merlin was deeply distressed.

[I mean, you should be more worried about the ghost.] Vizel, who can directly perceive Merlin's heart, will naturally not be deceived by Merlin's tricks, and it unconsciously pierces Merlin's superficial disguise and points directly at Merlin's heart.

Merlin immediately shuddered.

[There really is a ghost~~~] Wizil dragged a long voice to scare Merlin.

To be honest, Merlin actually fell into "fear", "cringe" and "fear" immediately after hearing that there was a ghost, and those previous cranky thoughts could be said to be made up by himself to distract himself, and now he was ruthlessly ripped off the last fig leaf by Wizil, directly exposing his deepest fear, which immediately made Merlin lose his inch. So much so that he didn't notice that Yao beside him was still noisy.

“…… That red, I heard that he took in a Kola Kola who had killed his mother by the evil party......"

Yao's words could still reach Merlin's ears, but he couldn't care about processing them.

“…… Fuji ......"

But a surname suddenly broke into Merlin's ears and woke Merlin's confused thoughts.

"Fuji?" He asked.

"Yes, Fuji." Yao nodded, turned his face and lowered his gaze to look at Merlin with a smile, "Fuji." He made sure again.

"That's the point, isn't it?" Merlin met Yao's gaze without fear and smiled confidently.

Yao's smile widened instantly, "No, I just want to say hello to you." Yao took out his right hand from his pocket and pressed his head together, "As a comrade-in-arms who temporarily belongs to the same battleline, it is basic etiquette to say hello." With that, he raised an eyebrow at Merlin, and then took a big stride away, leaving a cheerful laugh all the way.

Merlin was left alone in embarrassment at the door of the friendly shop.

"Weirdos." It wasn't until Yao's figure completely disappeared into the depths of the alley that Merlin muttered, "It's all weirdos." ”

A cold wind blew, and Merlin couldn't help but tighten his clothes and curl up. After looking around, Merlin walked diagonally across from a beautifully decorated but deserted market. His purchase isn't done yet.
