June 28, 198 in the Union calendar.

With the completion of the new residence, Naoki's first summer in the Pokémon world has officially come to an end.

On this morning, Kerri, who had been busy for nearly two months, officially handed over the new house to Naoki.

She instructed the Monster and the old builder to carry the tools and extra building materials to the wagon, and then took Naoki on a tour of the house.

Pushing open the door, Naoki appeared in front of a living room with a large space.

It's just that there is not a single piece of furniture in the house at this time, and the whole house looks very empty.

Kerry led the way in front as she introduced:

"This is the living room, and at your request, we have installed a new fireplace here, which is lit in the winter and the whole house will be warmed up."

Following her gaze, Naoki saw a brand new fireplace on the wall opposite the living room, with a piece of clear glass installed on it.

Klee: "But you'll need to have enough compressed firewood, that's the fuel for the fireplace." ”

A smile appeared on her face: "If you need it, I have it in my store!" ”

Naoki: "......" Sure enough, Kerry is worthy of being Kerry, and she never forgets to sell her own goods at any time.

But he really needed it.

"Okay, I'll go back and see." Naoki Road.

"However, in addition to this method, you can also use the power of Pokémon." Kerry continued, "If you have Pokémon like the Lava Bug, you can put them in the fireplace. ”

"Lava bugs use warm fireplaces as nests and live there, and they also release heat from their bodies, which can replace firewood."

"Lava bugs?" Naoki thanked Kerry and kept the incident in his heart.

However, most of the habitats of Pokémon such as lava bugs are volcanic areas with scorching temperatures, and they are rarely found anywhere else.

And there doesn't seem to be this kind of Pokémon inhabiting the Pardea region, which means that if you want to find them, you'll have to go to other areas.

It's just that Naoki has no plans to go to other regions at the moment.

Because the season was about to change, he had to prepare in advance to buy some seeds for the autumn crops and plant them.

And he had to buy a bunch of barrels, and the hops he had stored in the utility room were eager to turn into beer.

"There are five rooms on the first floor." After touring the living room, Kerry took Naoki to visit other places: "The master bedroom is on the right side of the living room, the open kitchen and dining room are on the left, and the bathroom is on the far left. ”

With that, she opened the door so Naoki could see inside.

"You can go buy a bathtub of your choice later." Kerry said: "In this way, after you finish your farm work every day, you can take a comfortable bath in it to relieve your physical and mental fatigue." ”

Naoki nodded, indicating that he was very satisfied.

Seeing this, Kerry pursed her lips and chuckled, and led him up the stairs to the second floor: "There are more rooms on the second floor, there are five in total, a guest bedroom for entertaining guests, a study for office reading, and a children's room, if you have a child in the future, you can let him live here." ”

Child...... It was too early for him, he hadn't even thought about it, Naoki thought to himself.

After all, he was only twenty years old, and he didn't even know if he would be able to find a marriage partner.

But this matter is not in a hurry, and he doesn't plan to get married now, everything depends on fate!

If he can't meet the right one, then it's not a problem for him to be single for the rest of his life.

The two of them walked through the small hall upstairs, and Kerry opened the door to the remaining two rooms: "Here are two empty rooms, you can arrange them to your liking according to your preferences and needs." ”

Naoki nodded in understanding, and then he asked what he was most concerned about: "What about the cellar?" ”

Kerry: "The entrance to the cellar is on the first floor. ”

The two go downstairs, and Naoki finally sees the entrance to the cellar in the southwest corner of the living room.

It was a small wooden door.

Kerry opened the door and was greeted by a staircase leading to the bottom, and the cellar was so dark that she could barely reach her fingers.

"The cellar light is on the wall to the right of the stairs." Kerry flipped the switch, and with a crisp snap, the retro wall lamps lit up.

Suddenly, a warm orange glow filled the entire space, illuminating the entire cellar.

"It's a good place to make sake because of the right temperature!" Kerry said, a smile on her face that made Naoki feel familiar.

Naoki: "...... I see, I'll go buy a barrel from you when I get back. ”

He has saved a lot of money in the past month or so, and he can buy all the things in one go.

Kerry: "I'll give you some discounts. ”

After the room was introduced, Kerry was ready to leave.

The two of them saw outside, and before getting into the car, Kerry said, "I've been in the store in the afternoon, so you can always come to me if you need it." ”

"Okay." Naoki mentally wondered when he would move things over.

After that, he plans to transform the old house into a Pokémon Tavern, but he still needs to make some preparations in advance.

After a moment's thought, Naoki asked, "By the way, Kerry, do you sell bars there?" ”

Hearing this, Kerry was slightly stunned: "Bar? ”

"That's right." Naoki explains, "I'm going to transform the old house into a ...... A tavern for Pokémon to meet. ”

"Tavern? It's easy. Kerry didn't think much of it, but thought he wanted Butu to play with the Pokémon: "When you go to the store in the afternoon and finish picking out the furniture, I'll send you the things together." ”

Naoki nodded, "Okay." ”

Kerry left in her van.

Naoki, on the other hand, went there with a few Pokémon who were looking forward to the new house.

"This will be our new home from now on." Naoki smiled and said, "How is it?" It's a lot bigger than the original, right? ”

"Quack!" The motorcycle lizard nodded repeatedly.

Frost Milk Fairy and Butu explored the room, but Loton didn't look too surprised.

The Frost Milk Fairy was too small to climb the stairs, so Butu took it upstairs.

Seeing the figures of the two little ones disappear at the top of the stairs, Naoki also began to get busy.

He opened every window in the room to allow air to circulate, and then took a mop and mopped the floor, sweeping the inside and outside of his new home.

When everything was done, it was 12 o'clock in the afternoon.

Naoki was tired of backache, and when he returned to the old house, he lay on the bed.

If you look at it this way, it's not a good thing that the room is too big, and it's too tiring to clean it all over again, and one person can't be busy at all.

Looking at the ceiling above, Naoki's mind conjured up the figures of the pair of siblings who loved to take care of him.

So far, nearly two months have passed since that day, and I don't know if they have grown up now, what they have become, and I don't remember the person he once had a relationship with.
