Advance the time by a little more than 10 minutes.

Accompanied by blue light, Xu Qiansu and his group of Pokémon appeared in a dimly lit corridor.

The pickpocket cat and the wrestling hawkman looked around warily.

Judging from the design drawings, the underground research institute is not large, but structurally speaking, it should not be called an underground research room, but an underground prison......

In addition to the reception room in the center, which covers a large area, there are small rooms all around.

Haas, presumably in the reception room.

But in order to guard against the secret hand, Xu Qiansu did not directly teleport in, but planned to use Chirulian's telekinesis to investigate on the periphery first.

Xu Qiansu looked around, confirmed the direction, and was about to leave, but found that Chirulian turned his head to look at an iron door not far away.

"What's wrong?" Xu Qiansu raised his eyebrows, thinking that Chirulian had discovered something unusual.

"Lianli......" The amber horns of Chirulian's hair ornament moved slightly, and she looked at Xu Qiansu with inexplicable sadness in her eyes.

Xu Qiansu frowned slightly, picked up Chirulian, and walked towards the iron gate with a little surprise.

She tightly grabbed Xu Qiansu's collar and didn't speak.

The corridor was very dark, and the inside of the iron door was even darker, Xu Qiansu's eyes narrowed slightly, and after his vision was slightly adjusted to the darkness, he could barely see a Pokémon lying inside through the window on the iron door.

"Snow ...... Enchantress. Xu Qiansu muttered to himself.

Hearing Xu Qiansu's voice, after a while, the Snow Demon Maiden reluctantly raised her head and looked at the iron gate.

"Naimu......"

Her voice was weak and faint, with a hint of hope and grievance.

The blue light flashed slightly, and Xu Qiansu teleported into the iron gate.

As he got closer, he realized that the Snow Demon Maiden was covered in bruises, withered, and had been tortured to the point of dying, with a special chain tied around her waist, which seemed to be able to restrain her from being a ghost.

"Poof." The wrestling eagle's hand lit up with white light, and he directly cut off the chain.

Xu Qiansu squatted down, took out the wound medicine he was carrying, and said softly, "I'll take you away soon." ”

"Nai......" The Snow Demon Maiden shook her head, tremblingly stretched out her hand, and opened her palm, but it was a crumpled ball of paper.

She was weak, and carefully opened the paper ball, and immediately looked at Xu Qiansu with hopeful eyes.

"Naimu......"

Chirulian hugged Xu Qiansu's neck tightly, trembled lightly when she heard the words, and immediately used her light blue telekinesis to condense a few words in the air.

This is the Chinese character that Xu Qiansu taught to Chirulian, and he hasn't taught much, so there are only a few words.

"At the beginning of the year, scratching, it hurts, I want to know, the letter ......" Xu Qiansu read out softly, and then lowered his eyes and looked at the snow demon girl.

Caught at the beginning of the year and tortured for a year, the great pain made the snow demon girl's mind a little confused, is she already illiterate......

Xu Qiansu carefully took the crumpled and somewhat faded paper, and immediately remembered something.

He sat on the ground, leaning against the wall, gently holding the Snow Demon in his arms, and then released the pumpkin essence.

"Cha~"

The dim light in the pumpkin spirit's body dispelled some of the darkness and made the snow demon feel the warmth that she had not felt for a long time.

The Wrestling Hawkman, the Pickpocket Cat, Chirulian, and the Pumpkin Essence gathered around Xu Qiansu, and in the dim warm light, it seemed that Xu Qiansu wanted to tell them a bedtime story.

Xu Qiansu gently touched the little head of the snow demon girl and read softly:

"My, sweet little snow fairy, are you okay at home? Did you eat well? Did you get a good night's sleep? Have you ever learned to play with your phone? I always write to you, my hands are sore...... It's just that it's the sour of happiness, hehe. ”

"Did you miss me? No, you have to think about me...... Forget it, don't worry too much about me. ”

"I'm fine here, don't worry."

"I did a few tasks and made some credits, and my husband gave me a lot of bounty, which was also deposited into my account."

"You buy yourself some beautiful jewelry, and buy some elf food that you are reluctant to eat on weekdays, you are dressed up beautifully, eat and drink well, I am happy."

"By the way, leave me some money, and when I come back from Guandu, I will repair our small home, and I also want to open a Snow Demon Girl Coffee Shop in Galar, and plant a few more Bilan plants at the door."

Thinking of this, Xu Qiansu paused, pursed his lips, stretched his fingers on the paper, and after a while, he continued:

"Don't blame me for not bringing you, I'm not doing a job that can see the light, Mr. Sakaki is a person with great ambitions, and people can follow him willingly......" Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, and then continued to read.

"But as far as I'm concerned, I just want to make more money here and make your life better."

"Be my Pokémon and let you be wronged."

"I miss you so much."

"I often think that when you were a snow boy, I fed you fire spirit food that I didn't like because of my lack of cultivation knowledge, but fortunately, you didn't blame me, and I also hugged you in the bath, but the bathtub froze, and I always looked forward to you evolving into an ice ghost protector."

"It wasn't until you came across the Awakening Stone that I realized that you were a girl like me."

"But you still don't blame me."

"I'm in a hurry this year, don't blame me, wait for me to make more money, and our future days will be easier."

"Mr. Sakaki may look cold, but he is actually very humane, and he told me that when this year's tasks are completed, he will let me retire and give me a large pension."

"I miss you so much."

"Wait until I get back."

"My, sweet little snow witch."

"Yours, love your Scarlet."

After reading, Xu Qiansu silently put down the paper, but saw that the snow demon girl was already leaning on his arms motionless, tears sliding down her cheeks, and finally falling on the chain around her waist.

These tears, the Snow Demon Maiden should not have kept.

She should have had a bland happiness that belonged to her alone.

The Snow Demon Maiden's body was devastated and weakened.

Knowing the content of the letter is her obsession to keep going.

Fortunately, this world is not so bad after all.

Xu Qiansu caressed the back of the snow demon girl, feeling the faint temperature and heartbeat.

He whispered, "Wrestling Eagle Man, Pumpkin Spirit, you two are here to take care of her, and I'll be back soon." ”

"Poof."

"Cha Cha Cha~"

Xu Qiansu put down the Snow Demon Maiden, left the room, and said to Chirulian, "If you find any other Pokémon that are still alive, tell me." ”

"Leanne."

Xu Qiansu picked up the pistol and walked towards the reception room.

He didn't walk fast, but until he reached the door of the reception room, Chirulian didn't tell him that there were other living Pokémon in the area.

Xu Qiansu stood in front of the door, was silent for a moment, and then pressed the doorbell.

Click.

A man in a white coat appeared behind the door, and the first thing he saw was Chirulian was ecstasy, and then the second time he saw Xu Qiansu and the dark muzzle of the gun.

“！？ Xu Qian......"

Bang!

The man in the white coat showed indescribable horror in his eyes, but when he spit out two words, his forehead was bleeding, and then the corpse was kicked away by Xu Qiansu.

Haas's face changed suddenly, and as soon as his hand touched the Poké Ball on his lower back, he saw a bullet pierce his arm on the spot.

Xu Qiansu stepped over the body of the man in the white coat and walked coldly.

Haas's heart sank, and he only realized at this moment that it was Xu Qiansu!

How can it be Xu Qiansu!?

He survived the assassination!? How did you get here!?

How could he be here!?

There are thousands of questions in his heart, but Haas is about to kneel directly in an instant, he has money and power, and the conditions offered are not afraid that Xu Qiansu will not be moved, as long as he can speak, he will talk about it, as for revenge, he will talk about it later!

But Xu Qiansu didn't give him this opportunity.

Raising his hand, he shot Haas in the chest, blood oozing from his well-dressed suit.

"Uh-shy -"

Haas's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, and his mouth was foaming with blood.

Before the words fell, he was kicked to the ground by Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu stepped on his chest, did not finish him off with a single shot, but picked up the wine bottle on the table and smashed it violently, and immediately pinched the pieces......

✿

Inside the hospital room of the Pokémon Center.

Marie leaned back on her pillow and looked out the window until the sun set and the moon rose, and night fell, and the moonlight fell.

Click-

The door opens lightly.

Xu Qiansu walked in.

Mary tilted her head to look at him, her expression calm.

The pickpocket cat was held in his arms, jumped on the hospital bed with a jump, and then slowly lay down in Ma Li's arms, gently licking the paw hair.

She asked, "What did you do?" ”

Xu Qiansu thought for a while, then smiled and said softly: "Scattered a little." ”
