Hanging up the phone, Xu Qiansu first went to the battlefield to familiarize himself with Chirulian for a while, and after a while, he was called to eat by a caller.

Dr. Mulan's own cooking is really delicious, but it's just ...... I don't know if this meat is Pokémon meat or synthetic meat......

Maybe this is the black technology of this world.

He had lunch at the institute with Marley, and after discussing the details of the winter camp with Dr. Mulan, he took his leave.

The two stepped on the stone bridge, Xu Qiansu subconsciously glanced at the empty river, then looked at Ma Li, and asked softly, "Do you want to take a boat to enjoy the snow?" ”

"Remember Gadelia?" Ma Lidai raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone was calm, and there was a look of rejection in her eyes.

Xu Qiansu thought for a while, then smiled lightly and said, "It's not a ...... The shore wind and sunset waves, the snow on the boat and the cold lights, this kind of thing is the only mood in our hometown, so strictly speaking, I should be homesick. ”

Ma Li raised her eyes and glanced at him, and then bowed her head slightly, "Idle is idle, and it's nothing to sit with you for a while." ”

The blue light flickered, and Chirulian appeared.

Xu Qiansu picked her up, pointed to the endless river, and said softly: "Chirulian, condense the water into the shape of Gardelia sitting that day, and then solidify it with the freezing wind, and then use telekinesis to isolate the cold air......"

"Leanne~"

Moments later, the ice boat landed on the river.

Xu Qiansu was the first to step on the boat, and after testing the draft of the boat, he nodded lightly to Ma Li.

Marley walked to the shore, lifted the hem of her skirt, and stepped into the small boat with a slight leap, followed by Morubé and the pickpocket cat, and the river made a slight ripple.

The little pouch beast was also released by Xu Qiansu, and was curiously looking at the ice boat under him.

Whether it was a small boat or an ice boat, it was the first time she had seen her.

Xu Qiansu sat against the edge of the boat, picked up the little saccharine, and sat on his lap.

The pickpocket cat lay on the stern of the boat, looking down the river, as if looking for fish to eat, her crescent-shaped tail slightly cocked, and then fell to the surface of the river, with a slight force, the boat slowly floated down the riverbank.

The cold wind rustled, the shore was white, and the iceboat sailed down the stone bridge towards the wide lake next to the institute.

Xu Qiansu took out a few large bags of elf food from his backpack, opened them, and handed them to the cubs.

The pickpocket cat stopped looking for fish, and jumped to the center of the boat, sharing elven food with Chirulian, the Pouchmon, and Morubeko.

Xu Qiansu took out another bottle of thermos cup, looked at Ma Li, and asked with a chuckle, "Do you want to drink?" ”

"What?"

"That drink that time let the pickpocket cat give you."

Ma Li was slightly stunned, and then took out a bottle of thermos cup from her shoulder bag.

It was the cup Xu Qiansu gave her last time.

"So you kept it~" Xu Qiansu took the cup and joked in a tongue.

"Throwing away a cup is wasteful and rude." Ma Li didn't think about it and explained lightly.

Xu Qiansu didn't answer, poured most of Ma Li's cup and handed it to her, then stopped talking and drank by himself on the side.

Ma Li didn't say much, took the cup, and turned her head to look at the riverbank that was slowly moving forward in her sight.

It was a long time since the two of them had been quiet.

Ma Li remembered the scene when she met Xu Qiansu for the first time.

At that time, he had a cold attitude and was very polite in his words and deeds, but he refused to let people go thousands of miles away.

When did the two of them become what they are now?

Marie's pale green eyes reflected the snow-white of the riverbank.

After the boat crossed the river bank and sailed into the lake, Ma Li retracted her gaze, sat up slightly straight, her face calm and lovely, and she said softly: "Murder...... It's not comfortable, is it? ”

Xu Qiansu turned his head to look at her, with a gentle smile, "Kill... It's nothing, I'm not the kind of person who is pretentious. ”

Ma Li's eyes showed a bit of scrutiny, and she looked at him a few times, "That's ...... There is too much gap in my heart. ”

Xu Qiansu raised his eyes slightly, put down the cup, and said with a smile: "If Miss Ma Li is a Pokémon, the characteristic must be telepathy." ”

After that, he showed a little helplessness and shook his head slightly, "However, it's not that big." ”

Xu Qiansu looked at his and Ma Li's four Pokémon.

Sensing the sight, Chirulian looked up at him, holding a few grains of elf food in her hand, and her smile was elegant and full of intimacy, "Lian An~"

The other cubs did the same, and handed over elf food, even the greedy Morube and the pickpocket cat who didn't pay attention to anyone.

Xu Qiansu took it, threw it into his mouth and chewed it.

Ma Li snorted faintly, propped up her hand to support her side face, and looked at the calm and waveless lake.

In winter, the wide lake has a hint of coldness, and a faint mist lingers on the lake.

The world is dead and silent, and the lake is calm, as if there is only one boat left, two people and four Pokémon.

After a while, Xu Qiansu ate all the bitter elf food before he said slowly: "It's just that it's still a little different from what I imagined after all." ”

Marie tilted her head to look at him.

Xu Qiansu smiled lightly and said, "Since the day I met Larulasi, I have encountered some inexplicable troubles, Pokémon poachers, black-robed people, Hascob...... Coveting different colors, coveting wishing stars, assassinating assassinations, or assassinations, and now it involves the underground research institute......"

He pursed his lips and continued, "I don't care about the malice that comes at me, I just think ...... This is not how the world should be...... But that's what it is, and it doesn't change because of the expectation that I talk to myself. ”

"The world is like that, but the choice is yours." Ma Lidai frowned slightly, as if comforting, "Whether you think it's unsightly, disgusting, how you live your life is all up to you." ”

Xu Qiansu blinked and laughed, "I thought you would say, 'down all the things you are not used to seeing, and turn the world into what you want to see'." ”

"That's my choice, not my choice." Marley pulled the shredded hair from her ears and tilted her chin slightly, just like her pickpocket cat.

Just as cute.

Just as arrogant.

Just as confident and high-spirited.

Xu Qiansu's eyes were helpless with a soft smile, and he said softly: "I'm not complaining, nor am I a young man who can't get used to anything......"

"This world...... What it should be, it is. ”

"Assassination or darkness, I didn't just meet these ......" Xu Qiansu scratched the chin of the little suppurn, making her giggle.

"The friendship between the inhabitants of Snowy and the Thysupial Beasts is pure and touching...... The Snow Witch had also struggled to survive just to know the contents of the letter...... And the childish that gave me a wishing star......" Xu Qiansu grabbed a handful of elven food, looked at Ma Li, and said with a smile, "The most important thing is that I don't travel alone. ”

Ma Li was slightly stunned.

But he saw Xu Qiansu grabbing the elf food, leaning over slightly, touching his hand to the cold and biting lake water, and the dark brown elf food floated into the lake.

Immediately, the surface of the lake, which was so calm that it was somewhat silent, made waves, and when I looked through the transparent ice bottom of the boat, I saw a black shadow wandering from the bottom of the lake......

Poof————

A Ubo burst out of the lake, snorting an elven food in his mouth, and leaped over the boat.

"Ubo~" It jumped to the lake on the other side of the boat, and immediately showed its little head, looked at Xu Qiansu, and the corners of its mouth twitched, revealing a smile.

Happy and pure laughter.

Immediately......

Puff puff ————

Countless water-based Pokémon living in the lake rushed out of the lake, with elf food in their mouths, like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, flying over the small boat.

There are king carp, ducks, lanternfish, weak tench, lobster creeps, seal balls, tadpoles......

But at this time, a narrow black shadow swept over the lake.

Puff ——————

A Pokémon leaps through the air and leaps over the boat.

The water splashes everywhere, and the crystal droplets reflect the brilliant brilliance of the cream color.

Menas.

Ma Li raised her eyes slightly, and her light green eyes reflected the crystalline dots.

Poof.

Menas landed in the lake, and immediately rushed out of the lake again, straightened up slightly, and looked at Xu Qiansu from top to bottom.

Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, stretched out his hand, and caressed the side face of this Menas.

Menas didn't hide at all, but lowered his head.

Moist and tender with a hint of coolness.

"Is that you?" He pursed his lips and smiled, and asked suddenly.

"Woo~" Menas's red eyes were elegant and noble, she narrowed her eyes and rubbed Xu Qiansu's hand.

"Leanne~"

"Karui~"

"Mo ~ Roubaix."

"Cha~"

It was the first time that the cubs had seen a Pokémon like Menas so closely, and they all took a few steps forward and looked up at her.

Only Marie, she doesn't look at Menas.

She looked at Xu Qiansu.

Xu Qiansu turned his head and looked at Ma Li, smiling hexi, "Look...... This world is meant to be like this. ”
