Chapter Eighty-Eight: Xu Qiansu's Element?
In modern times, Marry, who was flipping through a book in her room, suddenly heard a phone ringing.
She kept her eyes off the book, then took the phone and glanced at it, raised her eyebrows slightly, closed the booklet directly, and clicked on the phone screen.
"Good morning, Miss Marry." Xu Qiansu's voice came out of the mobile phone, and it didn't sound much different from usual.
Ma Li rubbed her slender waist that was a little sore because of sitting for a long time, then got up, came to the window, opened the curtains, the early morning sun reflected a bright white light on the sea in the distance, and she had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, so that Ma Li couldn't help but squint her apricot eyes slightly, and then replied, "Good morning." ”
“…… Sounds exhausting and staying up late? ”
Marie opened the window, and the sea breeze blew through her forehead, lifting the black hair on her forehead.
She leaned against the window and was not surprised...... You can judge each other's state by just one sentence, and the two know each other so well now.
"Sort of." Ma Li replied casually, "After all, time travel is too mysterious...... When you come back, how can you repay me? ”
I didn't deny it.
After the mobile phone, Xu Qiansu chuckled lightly and didn't say much.
In the face of Zhulan, Shiori and even Jiadelia, when troublesome them, Xu Qiansu always wants to go and even needs to keep his feelings in his heart from time to time, but in the face of Miss Ma Li, there is obviously no need to do this...... The two didn't need to deliberately remember each other's relationship for a long time, but it was precisely because of this that Xu Qiansu was furious and quarreled with Ma Li......
"It seems that something not so good has happened to you in the Xicui area...... That's it, you can solve it yourself, I won't ask more. Ma Li turned her head to look at the morning fog in Coastal City, and after a little silence, she continued to ask, "How is the situation in Gardelia?" ”
"It's still in a ghost-like mental state, but through the influence of superpower-based Pokémon, the state of existence may be disordered, or even disappear......" Xu Qiansu's voice sank a little, and said in a low voice: "Anyway, I'm not optimistic, I should return to the modern era as soon as possible." ”
"You have to worry about her?" Ma Li suddenly said angrily, "Do you think she is the kind of woman who needs your protection?" ”
"There are no absolutes, Miss Marley is strong and reliable, but it was good that I reacted quickly at the time, otherwise you would have wandered with me in the Xicui area." Xu Qiansu said with a smile, obviously satisfied with his reaction at the beginning, at least he didn't implicate Ma Li.
But when she heard this, Ma Li didn't reply.
The sea breeze blows, and the curtains swing with the wind.
She stretched out her hand to press the broken hair next to her ear, and the surging sunlight poured down the window on Marly's body, inverting her like a fairy who was about to step on the clouds.
"Booy?" Yin Bu stood at Ma Li's feet and looked up at her, then his hind legs bent slightly, and with a light jump, he squatted on Ma Li's shoulder, looked at the mobile phone curiously, and listened to Xu Qiansu's voice.
Ma Li scratched Yin Bu's chin slightly, and Yin Bu narrowed his eyes, and his cute big ears gently pulled back.
"According to the time, the Champions Cup should have already started, right?" Xu Qiansu pondered for a moment and asked.
"It opened two days ago, and Loz, Dandi, all the Dao Sect Masters, and even thousands of rookie trainers were all present." Marley was not very interested in this topic and replied casually.
Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, listening to this tone......
"You didn't go?"
"Why should I go?" Ma Li tilted her little face and asked suspiciously.
"Don't you value the Champions Cup the most?"
"Even if you don't attend the opening ceremony, you can still challenge the gym...... In that case, why waste time in that kind of place. Ma Li withdrew her little hand from Yin Bu's chin and stroked her forehead instead.
Xu Qiansu was silent for a while, although this is the truth, but Ma Li always puts the words 'Before the Champions Cup starts, you will decide where I go', and now that the Champions Cup has really started, she is still staying in Binhai City...... Obviously, if Xu Qiansu does not return to modern times, he will not return to Gallell to challenge the gym.
Therefore, he smiled and said, "When there was a trainer who only used Charizard to defeat all the Gym Masters in the Bencaros region in just a few days, and put the badge in his bag to participate in the Miare, he can, and so can we." ”
"Compared to this, you still have to think about how to explain to your little master of colored beans." Hearing this, Ma Li sneered, "I didn't see you at the opening ceremony, she is probably full of doubts, and even a little dissatisfied...... If she can't contact you again, even if she doesn't say it, it is estimated that she will silently accumulate resentment in her heart. ”
Xu Qiansu was stunned, but this is really the case...... Little Master Caidou is not like Liliai, nor like Miss Dale, he never chats with him on the line, and he usually doesn't talk to him when he is fine, but on an important occasion like the opening ceremony, how can he notify Xu Qiansu and let him participate......
After all, after Xu Qiansu left, except for going to Shuochuan Town to challenge the finals of the gym and the Champions Cup, he could basically only meet her at the opening ceremony.
Although Xu Qiansu didn't want to worry about Little Master Caidou, she was really suspicious of the investigation, so it was obvious that he couldn't hide the fact that he was attacked and disappeared by the Galaxy Team, and Miss Dale...... The longer you delay, the easier it will be to be detected.
But he obviously couldn't deal with it at the moment, so he had to hand it over to Miss Marley to face them......
Ma Li obviously understood this, so she sneered, "When will you be able to be a little conscious of yourself?" I didn't care about it before, but you are currently in the Xicui region with Gardelia......" Marley paused before continuing: "Focus on me, and concentrate on gathering information back to the modern age. ”
"Marie, what are you afraid of?" At this moment, Gadelia's voice suddenly came from behind the mobile phone.
What kind of tone is that?
Ma Li suddenly thought of Xu Qiansu's Chirulian and the Six Tails......
"Huh? Miss Gardelia? You're not meditating anymore? And Miss Marly, as my best friend, is worried that I'm fine......" Xu Qiansu was also a little surprised after the mobile phone, and he didn't expect Jiadelia to suddenly run out.
Ma Li Ying's lips hooked slightly, but she replied to Gadelia, "Everyone has something they cherish to a greater or lesser extent, although he is not in tune, but he was sent to wash the green for me, so I am afraid that he will have no problem because I can't return to modern times, right?" ”
"Absolutely." Gadelia chuckled behind her phone, and then said, "But there's no point in worrying, it's what you do." ”
Ma Li's pretty face was slightly cold, Jiadelia was saying that she even threw her body in the villa, and directly turned into a ghost to save Xu Qiansu in the Xicui area...... If you look at it this way, it seems that Marley is the vase that has no use.
Ma Li gently pulled the broken hair next to her ear, Yin Bu blinked, and immediately jumped from Ma Li's shoulder to the bed, but saw Mo Lu Beike take out the white seed from his pocket and give it to her to eat.
Yin Bu had a crooked little face, and he didn't understand why Mo Rubei suddenly wanted to give her electric seeds to eat, but because it tasted very good, Yin Bu swallowed it and chewed it deliciously.
Morubecco stood on the soft bed with big black and lovely eyes, looking up at Marry.
But seeing Ma Li Zhengse, he said: "I don't deny that I dragged Xu Qiansu back in this incident, if I had reacted faster at that time, this kind of thing would not have happened......"
"It happened suddenly, no one could have expected that the Galaxy Team would be able to let the power of the fireball slate run wild, not to mention that although I am in Xicui, I don't have to worry about my life, so Miss Ma Li doesn't have to worry too much......" Xu Qiansu comforted softly.
"Shut up, I'm talking to Gardelia."
"Okay." Behind the mobile phone, Xu Qiansu sat upright, pursed his lips and said nothing, thinking about how Ma Li and Jiadelia could still quarrel through the mobile phone after thousands of years of time and space.
Morubé electrocuted a seed, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
Ma Li changed one hand to hold the mobile phone, and the other small hand propped up on the window edge behind her, and said:
"This time it's my problem, so I won't make that mistake again next time, but Miss Cardelia...... If you don't go back to the method of washing the cui, then Xu Qiansu will have to find a way to deal with your problems in addition to getting out of himself, so it seems that your measures not only do not help, but also help. ”
Although there is a bit of a quarrel, Marie actually wants to test whether Gadelia can return to modern times.
"I can't say that, no matter what the result is, Miss Gardelia also risked her life to come......" Xu Qiansu couldn't help but speak.
"Shut up!" Ma Li raised her eyebrows, "What?" Do you still want to please both ends? ”
"Please ......" Xu Qiansu blinked his eyes and stopped talking.
Jadeia glanced at him, and couldn't help but sneer: "Aren't you usually good at talking?" Why are you so stupid when you speak for me today!? If you were talking for Ma Li just now, you would have spoken about the lotus flower by now, right? ”
Ma Li was slightly stunned, and changed her posture again, her legs were slightly folded, leaning against the window, looking a little casual, a very shallow smile appeared on her face, but she said so: "It just so happened that I discussed with Zhulan before, although Xu Qiansu looks like he likes to talk to everyone, but in fact he will only do that to me, so even if you complain about him, it is useless." ”
Jiadelia frowned slightly, and immediately squinted at Xu Qiansu, of course what Ma Li said was right, she knew this, but after all, it was different now......
Therefore, Gardelia smiled slightly, but was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "Having said that, this time is different from the past, and the gains and losses for a while are nothing at all. ”
This is interesting, although there are some riddler meanings, but it does not hinder understanding.
Morubé stared straight at Marly, motionless like a cute doll, and then picked up the seed and put it in his mouth.
Mary straightened up, closed the window, closed the curtains, and sat down at the table, but she said firmly: "'Momentary gains and losses are nothing'? It's just an excuse that losers use to deceive themselves. ”
"Perhaps." Gadelia was unimpressed by Marly's bluntness, smiled lightly, and then couldn't help asking, "What about Zhulan?" ”
The topic finally moved away from Xu Qiansu's body, making him breathe a sigh of relief without a trace, but he heard that Ma Li had already called Zhulan and asked the pair of girlfriends to have a good chat.
Although Ma Li has a lot of dissatisfaction with Jiadelia and is not very familiar with her, and the few positive conversations are about Xu Qiansu quarreling, it is undeniable that Jiadelia has indeed suffered a lot for Xu Qiansu, so Ma Li will not embarrass her.
Zhulan's expression was hurried, full of joy, and Sakura's lips couldn't help but close, chatting with Jiadelia...... She is a Sinnoh champion, and with such an identity, she has few sincere friends...... She and Jiadelia have known each other since childhood, grew up with each other, and their friendship is extremely deep, it can be said that the person who Zhulan values in the world is Jiadelia.
For Gardelia, the same is true...... If the person who was left in Xicui was Zhulan, Jiadelia would have come to Xicui to save her as soon as possible, instead of needing to do some psychological construction before she gritted her silver teeth and came here.
Xu Qiansu sat on the side, without saying a word, silently listening to the chat between Jiadelia and Zhulan.
He didn't know what Gadelia and Zhulan were thinking.
But for Xu Qiansu, Jiadeliya should not have suffered this, she should not have been exiled to Xicui, forced to be separated from Zhulan, and turned into a ghost body of some kind of Raushzi, she needs to be careful at all times, if she is not careful, she will dissipate into the void and her soul will be scattered......
There are reasons for the Galaxy team, as well as Gadelia's own choice, but in Xu Qiansu's heart, this can only be his fault...... That's why he is so gentle and caring for Gardelia.
After a while, Gadelia reluctantly said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow......"
Xu Qiansu raised his eyes to look at her, he had never seen Jiadelia show such an expression, but in this world, except for Zhulan, only Jiadelia's Pokémon should be able to make her like this.
Gadelia handed the phone to Xu Qiansu, and the reluctant look on her face instantly dissipated, and she changed into her usual lazy and elegant appearance.
"Stop talking? Don't worry about the battery, you can talk for as long as you want. Xu Qiansu said softly.
Behind the mobile phone, Ma Li and Zhulan frowned slightly at the same time, and Xu Qiansu's tone of voice was ...... Isn't it a little too gentle?
Zhulan pursed her lips and pondered for a while, when Xu Qiansu was still living in the villa, although she was gentle to Jiadelia, she would never talk to her in this tone......
Ma Li was not as confused as Zhulan, she knew that Xu Qiansu was moved by Jiadelia when she thought about it...... From this point of view, what Gardelia said before that 'temporary gains and losses are nothing' is not without some truth.
"Tired." Gardelia yawned slightly, and then floated back into the carriage and disappeared.
Xu Qiansu retracted his gaze and picked up his mobile phone, "Miss Ma Li?" ”
"Hmm." Ma Li replied without salting.
But at this time, Zhulan couldn't help but say, "Xu Qiansu, although it is a little out of place, can you record more of the humanities and customs of the Xicui area, so that it is convenient for me to study and study?" ”
"Okay." Xu Qiansu responded quite happily, after all, he was already doing this kind of thing, not only that, but he also recorded the events of the Cuixue Festival in Cuixue Town and the catastrophe in Shuochuan Town.
Zhulan couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, Xu Qiansu gently stroked Zoroya, who was napping on his lap, and said with a smile: "Miss Ma Li, remember that in the underwater paradise, I told you, can I write the same book of "Xicui on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right"...... Now that I've had such an experience, when I go back, I can't tell if I'll be able to write a book. ”
Hearing this, Ma Li no longer cared about the affairs of Gardelia, she flipped through the desk casually, took out the book "Xicui on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right" from the corner and looked at it a few times, and then said angrily: "Writing a book is not a simple matter...... And as a trainer, instead of writing papers on Pokémon breeding, battles, or ecology, you want to write history...... Are you idle? ”
Xu Qiansu pursed his lips and pondered for a moment, thinking that Yin Bu still had any evolutionary types that had not been discovered, and he could use them to pretend to be ...... No, and Xu Qiansu doesn't like high-profile temperament, so he chuckled and said, "Write it out, if you don't publish it, I'll show it to you...... It's the same as my Pokémon research notes. ”
"I can't read what you're writing." Ma Li snorted lightly, and said in a surging tone.
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you when I get back."
Ma Li didn't reply yet, but Zhulan couldn't help but interject, "Xu Qiansu Xu Qiansu, can you show me after you finish writing?" ”
Zhulan is a mythology scholar, and she attaches great importance to this kind of history, if she is not worried about the safety of Xu Qiansu and Jiadelia, she even hopes that Xu Qiansu can stay in Xicui for a few more years.
"I'll wait until I'm writing it." Xu Qiansu did not directly agree...... He just talked to Miss Marley, chatting casually, as for whether he really wanted to write a history...... He doesn't have that ability, he may just stay in the Xicui area for a while, and he can't live for thousands of years, and he lacks professional historical knowledge.
"Oh." Zhulan has soft pink lips, but she understands that she will be wrong, and the two of them are just used to flirting.
She sighed lightly, and took the copy of "Washing Cui on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right" from Marly's hand as if she was comforting, and looked it up and down, as a professional mythology scholar, she was not really interested in this...... Can this author know more than her?
When the time comes, I will see a lot of obvious historical mistakes, not to mention how irritating I am.
However, Zhulan took the book, but she turned it over first and looked at the author's signature.
As a reader, Ma Li cares more about the content and doesn't care much about the author.
But Zhulan is different, as a scholar who often publishes papers, she attaches great importance to things like signatures.
"Plain and Kaede......
Zhulan muttered, and immediately recalled for a moment in her mind, and found that there was no such person among the scholars and writers she knew, so she looked at Ma Li and asked, "Has this author published any works before?" ”
Ma Li crooked her little face, she only knew for the first time who the author of this book was, and it was impossible for her to know, so she shook her head slightly.
Zhulan flipped through a few more pages, and put it back on her desk when she thought it was boring...... She just asked casually, and she didn't care about this author.
In this world, there are so many little-known people that if it weren't for a powerful or potential trainer, Zhulan wouldn't pay much attention.
Ma Li lowered her eyes, stretched out her little hand, and gently rubbed her fingertips against the word "Su and Maple", as if this "Su" was the "Su" of "Xu Qiansu".
——————————
When I checked the information, I suddenly found that Miss Mary's Morubec was actually a female, a girl......
How could I have written her as a boy in the first place? Which website did you check the information?
I'm really sorry for making her a boy with 760,000 words. (laughs)
