"Kashiwagi? Where's the cypress? ”

"The coordination trainer who said he was going to win?"

"Wow! Kashiwagi-kun! I'm a fan of yours! ”

Alice's words caused the crowd to riot again after eating the melon and was about to disperse.

Everyone present looked around in surprise, curiosity, or even screaming excitedly, and some people looked straight in the direction of her shouting.

I only saw a panicked green-haired teenager.

The gaze shifted.

The panic on Manchong's face was put away, and he quietly turned his head sideways and said, "Kashiwagi!" That girl just walked over! ”

The shadow beneath his feet suddenly came from the slightly dull voice of the cypress.

"It's okay, you go straight and go to a place where no one is."

Hearing this, Man Chong looked at the dark-skinned girl who was surrounded and asked where Kashiwagi was, hesitated for a moment, turned around and walked away quickly.

Alice, who was busy explaining, saw that the crowd was gone, and quite eagerly squeezed away the pestering people, and jumped to her feet, grabbing the torso of the tall tropical plant that had been used as a fence by the side of the road to the exclamation of the crowd, and quickly climbed to the top.

Immediately.

She jumped to the top of another tropical plant with the dexterity of Tarzan of the Apes, and then continued to jump forward, and in a few moments she was already far away.

Everyone stared at Alice's back in amazement.

"W-Is this girl overly ape-like?"

Overactive apes aren't that flexible, right?

The crowd dispersed in a noisy, and when they couldn't see the cypress, they naturally lost the reason to stay.

The other side.

Man Chong burrowed into the forest at the edge of the venue, and when there was no one nearby, he shouted to the shadow under his feet, "Kashiwagi? Cedar! ”

"Whew!"

Kashiwagi emerges from the shadows, and below the neck is the mouth of the heterochromatic Geng Ghost with its mouth wide open, and the picture looks extremely terrifying.

He said: "This is really not something that people can treat, claustrophobia is going to be committed." ”

Man Chong was speechless, silently helping him get out of Geng's mouth.

When the latter stepped on the ground, he only felt that he had finally returned to the world, and easily pinched his shoulders, "The last time I went in to experience it was too short, and I didn't find it so terrifying inside." ”

The Gengar didn't need to breathe in essence, so even if it deliberately inhaled into its body, the air that Kashiwagi felt was still so thin that he was forced to hold his breath.

In addition, the black paint is not transparent at all, it is difficult to distinguish up and down, and the soles of the feet cannot touch the special space of hard objects......

It's nothingness.

It's good that the time is short, but after a long time, the head will become blank due to lack of oxygen, no wonder there is a terrible urban legend of "the world after death".

"But thank you for your cleverness! If you're surrounded in that place, God knows when you'll be able to get out. ”

Kashiwagi patted Geng's head.

The latter was disappointed because he couldn't give the trainer a good experience, and when he heard this, he immediately smiled, "Hee-hee~"

There is no doubt that it was the whim that swallowed the trainer in its stomach just now, so that they could be evacuated safely.

The ghost who brushed away melted into the shadows.

Meanwhile.

Alice, who had been tracking all the way, spotted the two and approached happily, but this time she didn't shout anymore.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be so popular~"

She closed her right eye slightly with one hand in apology, and said with a smile: "Long time no see!" Cedar! ”

Kashiwagi tugged at the corners of his mouth and pretended to mock, "It's been a long time, Alice." Give me a big gift as soon as we meet, which really fits your style of doing things. ”

Alice crossed her waist with dignity: "Didn't people apologize!" I didn't expect you to be so childish in such a place! ”

Kashiwagi replied, "If I'm really childish, I'll definitely arrest you and beat you." ”

Seeing that the two of them seemed to be full of gunpowder, Man Chong weakly raised his hands and persuaded him: "Don't, don't quarrel, discuss something well......"

Who would have expected that as soon as he said this, Alice burst out laughing, and the corners of Kashiwagi's mouth curled up with a smile.

"No, no, we used to communicate like this a lot, not a quarrel."

The dark-skinned girl stretched out her hand to Man Chong and said generously, "My name is Alice, a dragon trainer from the United Region!" Nice to meet you! ”

Man Chong was a little flattered, stretched out his hand and said: "My name is Man Chong, and my family lives in Orange City, please give me more advice." ”

After introducing each other.

Unexpectedly, Alice looked at Kashiwagi's shoulders and said with burning eyes, "I seem to smell the scent of a dragon-type Pokémon!" ”

"It's the Dragon's Radar, you're right."

The latter woke up the Duolong siblings who were sleeping incognito on their shoulders, and the two little ones appeared blankly, with a little sleepiness on their faces.

Alice screamed in a low voice of excitement, "So cute! What kind of Pokémon are they? ”

"Multi-dragon Messia, a dragon-type Pokémon in the Galar region, they are twins." Kashiwagi glanced silently at the empty space behind him.

Doron Baruto went into hiding.

This guy is most afraid of Alice, an existence with a social cow attribute in front of a dragon-type Pokémon, how dare he show his head casually.

For Brother Doron, his meeting with Alice is the equivalent of a reunion of the Ox.

So she threw herself into the other party's arms smoothly, and the latter didn't even have time to ask Kashiwagi to let her hug these two dragon-type Pokémon that she had never seen before.

Later, Sister Duolong, who was curious about Alice's soft aura, joined in.

"Hahahaha, it's so cute."

Alice was overjoyed, and the skill of being able to communicate with the dragon-type Pokémon's mind opened as if passive, and golden light lit up from her palm.

Man Chong was quite surprised by this, "This is-"

"Alice's special ability allows her to communicate with dragon-type Pokémon without barriers, and feel the other party's mood at the moment." Kashiwagi explained briefly, and his expression was a little complicated.

That's what he wanted to learn at first, but why did he become like that?

After a few seconds.

Alice ended the communication with the Duolong siblings, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she said softly: "What a pair of energetic twins, it's great to meet Kashiwagi!" Right? ”

Sister Duolong looked at her strangely and nodded happily at her words.

The journey to find his brother was too long, but it didn't feel pain, because not only did it find its brother, but it also met the greatest luck in its life - Kashiwagi.

When Brother Duolong saw his sister nodding, he nodded as well.

Alice smiled, glanced around and asked, "I still smell a smell~"

"Don't smell it, it's not good at contact with strangers, you're so aggressive that it scares it." Kashiwagi pressed her restless shoulder.

"Is that ......?"

There was no shortage of loss in Alice's eyes.

It's not too early.

When Kashiwagi learns that Alice is also staying at the Saiyu Hotel, he plans to introduce the two to Rukia and they get to know each other, and have dinner together by the way.

There are many shops that he is interested in in the book of the Saiyo Conference Guidebook.

Alice and Manchu are all there to be.

——

Early the next morning.

After Kashiwagi finished washing, he knocked on the door of the full room.

"Don't tell me you haven't slept all night."

He couldn't help frowning when he looked at the full charge that was already ready to go.

The latter intertwined the index fingers of both hands in front of his abdomen, and said embarrassedly: "I slept for a while......"

Kashiwagi said helplessly: "Why are you nervous about running a step?" Or is my word putting a lot of pressure on you? ”

"No, I'm worried that I won't be able to perform."

The sound of full charge gradually becomes smaller.

Although this young man speaks softly, he has the advantage of daring to open his mouth and not holding back.

"Performing is not good, and then what? I didn't force you to run ten kilometers in ten minutes in one breath, and if you couldn't run, I would scold you and despise you, relax, don't burden yourself too much. ”

Kashiwagi patted him on the shoulder, "Call Eluredo out too, running is such a thing, you can think that it is like yesterday when the two of us looked for the right battlefield everywhere, looking at the scenery everywhere and seeing the lively Caiyou City." ”

"Hmmm......"

Full Charge nodded, and called Eluredo out of the Poké Ball.

With Pokémon present, this guy is really much more relaxed.

Kashiwagi's running companion Pokémon is Polymon II., whose legs are transformed into wheels to resemble a toy car, which makes Manchong quite novel.

The two went downstairs and met Alice in the lobby, who had also come out for morning exercises.

"Roar~Good morning~"

She beckoned, and when she heard what they were going to do, she quickly joined the morning jogging group.

The three of them didn't run a few steps out and met Xiao Gang, who was stabbed in the butt by a bad frog and lying on the ground and twitching, Miss Junsha stood aside helplessly.

The corners of Kashiwagi's mouth trembled, and he asked Miss Junsha what had happened.

As he expected, Xiao Gang, who is diligent every day, was backstabbed by his own Pokémon Bad Frog, which made Junsha not know how to deal with it.

He decisively took the initiative to pull Xiao Gang up and pull him away.

However, the latter didn't get up early in the morning to make spring, but there were a few dishes last night that made Xiao Gang very interested, and he was going to go to the morning market to buy some ingredients to reproduce them himself, and go back to make them for his family.

As a result, when I saw Junsha, I couldn't find the north.

Finding that the morning jogging team had increased to four, Kashiwagi simply woke up Rukia and Hikari and asked them if they would join the morning jogging team.

- I really agreed.

Because they learned last night that Kashiwagi was going to become a flame runner, and at the same time they were honored, they were ready to cheer him on for a short distance at that time.

Morning jogging should be practiced in advance.

Thereupon.

The morning run team expanded to six.

Kashiwagi thought that the number of members of this small group was over, and when he didn't want to run along the less crowded coastline, he and Rukia were recognized by the other early morning exercisers.

The men tried to talk to them and ask for an autographed photo or something, but they were kind enough not to disturb him for his morning run, and just followed silently.

The number of people in the morning running team has been doubled.

And that's not all, some other people who didn't recognize or didn't know Kashiwagi at all, but found the morning jogging team very interesting, somehow came to join in the fun.

The number of teams for the morning run has been epicly doubled.

That's it.

There are more and more people and Pokémon behind Kashiwagi, forming a beautiful scenery along the coast.

Man Chong was mixed in the big team, looking at the extra group of people behind him who didn't know when they came out, and didn't understand what the situation was.

Where did they come from?

But soon he was immersed in the joy of running without getting too tired.

The little worry in my heart is gone at this moment.

Rukia looked back at the crowd, her face full of pride at the sheer influence of Kashiwagi.

Hikari was out of breath, and she found that her physical strength was not as good as that of Rukia...... Not as good as Bogaman! Little penguins have short legs and are not slow at all!

"Ahh

Xiao Gang, who has recovered from paralysis, is calm, he is a man who can move at high speed like Ash!

What is a mere morning jog?

I don't know how long it took.

Kashiwagi stopped, and a large number of people behind him also stopped.

He turned his head embarrassedly to look at the team, which also had hundreds of people, and wondered if these people were idle.

But before he could say something, a microphone next to him suddenly popped out and squeezed in front of him:

"Hello! Mr. Kashiwagi! I'm a morning reporter for Saiyo TV! Do you want to lead so many people to jog along the coast to urge people to exercise as a flame runner? ”

Caiyu TV?

Where did you come from?

Kashiwagi looked at the female reporter in front of her speechlessly, as well as the camera brother carrying the machine behind her, judging from the panting appearance of the two, it is estimated that they have followed for a while.

“…… So to speak. ”

He didn't dismantle the stage, in essence, his purpose at the beginning was to take the full charge out for a run, so that the latter had a sense of independent exercise.

It's pretty much the same.

The female reporter's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Sure enough!" You're a gorgeous new star in the world of battle! Always be an example for our young people! I believe you will be able to win the ColorYou Conference...... Ah no, good grades. ”

In the frequent glances given by the camera brother, the female reporter changed her words.

Television stations can promote the contestants, but they cannot make it clear which contestants they support to win, and female reporters do not represent her personally in interviews.

Kashiwagi listened with black lines on his head, and hurriedly and modestly said that he was looking forward to working hard and looking forward to meeting a strong opponent at the conference.

A decent answer.

The female reporter was about to say something, but the other impatient people crowded up and surrounded Kashiwagi and Rukia.

One group shouted Kashiwagi-kun, and the other shouted Ryuhime.

The scene was particularly chaotic.

Several other people had already been squeezed to the edge, looking at this scene with different expressions.

Man Chong is afraid, his social skills are insufficient, and he doesn't know how to deal with so many fans.

Alice was excited, and with her goal of becoming the champion, she knew that the regional champion would only get more attention than Kashiwagi and Rukia, but she didn't care.

Xiaoguang was curious, she wanted to know if she could handle it as skillfully as she was in Rukia's position, it should be no problem!

Xiao Gang...... He was a little envious, because there were so many beautiful big sisters among the people surrounding Kashiwagi.

This farcical morning run lasted two hours.

Kashiwagi and Rukia were freed and were able to return to the hotel to rest.

There are more and more people in Caiyou City, and more and more people know them.

In order to avoid a similar situation, the next few days everyone stayed in the hotel quite peacefully, waiting for the conference to really begin.

Finally.

Junsha sent a text message reminding Kashiwagi to arrive in time to welcome the flame.

The Caiyou Conference has officially kicked off!
