"The Taste of Happiness ......"

Naoki raised an eyebrow, and he picked up the bowl of soup and savored it.

In one sip, you can taste the taste of many crops, and when you mix it with the rich soup, and this lively and festive atmosphere, it will indeed make people feel warm when drinking.

Naoki looked around.

He saw the girl feeding the Pokémon soup, the happy young child snuggling in the arms of his parents, and the strange power of gulping the soup with a bowl.

This atmosphere, this feeling, is indeed the liveliest day of the year.

Everyone gathered together to celebrate this harvest season.

What a beautiful and leisurely life!

Naoki felt a little emotion in his heart, and he turned around and looked at his big family of Pokémon.

The two siblings sit on the bench, eating the Pokémon treats that the town has prepared for them.

The younger sister loves to taste it carefully, sometimes frowning, sometimes her eyes are slightly bright, as if she is saying that this is delicious, this is not delicious.

Babu Tupa, dressed in a red cape, is surrounded like a little hero by some Pokémon who live in the town.

In their envious and adoring gazes, Babu performed a superhero take-off on the spot, causing the group of Pokémon to let out a burst of exclamations.

The mount goats stood lazily aside.

Several of the town's children circled around them when they learned that the goat's milk they usually drank was produced by these three mounted goats.

One daring boy even cautiously reached out and touched the fluff of the mounted goat.

Seeing that the mounted goat was not displeased, he immediately opened his eyes wide and said to his companions, "What a soft one! ”

The mounted goats also seemed to like this atmosphere, and they suddenly released the grass energy in their bodies, creating a field of grass around them.

Several children let out a burst of exclamations in unison, and then said incredulously: "It's amazing! ”

Naoki looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh a little: "Mount goats are so popular!" ”

"Quack~"

*

At two o'clock in the afternoon, this autumn Thanksgiving officially came to an end.

The well-fed townsfolk left one after another, and Naoki, after saying hello to Mayor Thomas, also left the place with a group of Pokémon and returned to the ranch.

Autumn is getting stronger, the temperature is slowly getting colder, but today's weather is not bad, the temperature is more than 20 degrees in the evening, the sun is warm, and it is very comfortable to shine on people's bodies.

Not long after they returned to the ranch, there was a commotion outside.

When Naoki goes out, it turns out that the children in the town have come to exchange pumpkin cookies with their respective Pokémon companions.

The boy he had seen in the morning was among them, followed by a rock dog with beautiful blue eyes.

Seeing Naoki come out, Daqi's eyes lit up, and he handed over the small bag wrapped in ribbons and oiled paper in his arms:

"Mr. Naoki, I'm here to exchange pumpkin cookies with you!"

"Good!" Naoki smiled and nodded, turned around and asked the care-loving brother and sister to take out the pumpkin cookies he had prepared earlier and exchange them with the other party.

Taking the pumpkin biscuit, the boy shyly thanked him: "Thank you!" ”

The rock dog standing beside him also enthusiastically "Wang" twice.

"Mr. Naoki! And we still have us! ”

Another girl with a Mi Lilong on her head hurriedly waved her little hand.

"Don't worry, there's something for everyone."

Naoki exchanged the pumpkin cookies with them, and when the exchange was complete, the group of children and Pokémon thanked him in unison.

Looking at this scene, Naoki Shin said that these children are quite cute.

He glanced at the anticipating artifact, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Would you like to visit my ranch?" ”

"Yes!" They said in unison.

Naoki smiled and said, "Then come with me!" ”

He took the group to the sheepfold where the goats were mounted, and told them about the ecology of the two Pokémon, the Mounted Lamb and the Mounted Goat.

Then, I took them to the Pokémon hut and saw the production process of moo milk.

After coming out, everyone went to the glass flower house, and Naoki introduced them to how the three bees collected nectar to make sweet flowers.

Eventually, they descend to the underground cave, where Naoki tells them about how gophers can help farms cultivate the land, and how salt rocks can produce delicious and nutritious rock salt.

Every time Naoki said a word, the group of children would let out an excited "Wow! ”

They seem to be very curious about all of this and become interested with Naoki's introduction.

At the end of the day, a girl said longingly, "When I grow up, I want to be a rancher, like Mr. Naoki, raise a lot of Pokémon here and live with them!" ”

Naoki smiled and nodded, "It's a good dream, but being a rancher is very hard!" ”

The other boy immediately shook his head: "Don't be afraid!" Mom said I had a lot of strength! The paparazzi bag will help me too! ”

The paparazzi who followed the boy immediately nodded: "Wang! ”

"That's good." Naoki looked at the other children again and asked, "What about you?" Do you have any dreams when you grow up? ”

As expected, these children have become very interested in ranchers at the moment, and they have said that they will also become ranchers in the future.

Only Daqi stood aside excitedly.

Naoki looked at him again and asked, "Where's the big thing?" ”

Daiki's eyes were bright, and his gaze was firm: "I want to be a trainer as powerful as Mr. Naoki!" ”

Naoki: "......"

The other children were very surprised, and looked at the big machine in confusion: "Huh? Mr. Naoki is a Pokémon trainer? ”

Daqi looked confused and asked rhetorically, "Didn't you find out?" Mr. Naoki is a trainer with a fast dragon army! If you want to make so many fast dragons obedient, Mr. Naoki's strength must be very powerful! ”

"Wow!"

The other children showed the same expressions as they were, and they all cast adoring glances at Naoki.

"That's amazing!"

"Better than the chief champion!"

"That's right!"

Naoki: "......"

Heaven and earth conscience, he is really not.

Naoki smiled politely, "The Chief Champion is the best trainer in our Padia region, and she's also a very charismatic person. ”

Hearing this, the group of children was immediately distracted.

A boy hurriedly asked, "Huh?" Does Mr. Naoki know the Chief Champion? ”

Naoki thought for a moment and replied, "It's considered an acquaintance!" ”

"Wow!" He hurriedly asked, "Then have you ever fought a Pokémon battle?" Can the Pokémon of the Chief Champion beat Mr. Naoki your Dragon Army? ”

Naoki: "......"

He said helplessly: "Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you say, I don't have a fast dragon legion, there are only three fast dragons in the ranch." ”

Daqi looked confused: "But I see Mr. Naoki, you still have five hackdragons here?" They will also evolve into fast dragons in the future. ”

Another girl stretched out her finger and counted: "Five hackrons plus three fast dragons, a total of eight fast dragons!" Wow, there are so many fast dragons, so powerful! ”

Another boy also said: "My mother and I used to watch movies where trainers fought with five fast dragons against the country of bad guys!" That trainer only relied on five fast dragons to defeat the bad guys' country! ”

"And Mr. Naoki has eight of them, and he can already attack a city and become a king himself!"

Naoki smiled politely: "...... It's a time of peace, and doing this kind of thing will be caught by Miss Junsha and Cutty Dog. ”

The boy thought about it carefully, then nodded, "That's right! ”

Before I knew it, it was five o'clock in the evening, and Zach was driving a big truck to receive the goods.

Seeing Zack, Naoki touched a boy's little head and said with a smile:

"Okay boys, it's not too early, let's stop here today!"

The boys also realized that they had been here for too long, and that if they went back too late, their parents would worry about them.

So the group of children waved goodbye to Naoki and his Pokémon: "Goodbye Mr. Naoki, goodbye motorcycle, goodbye Lotton, goodbye Kualong!" ”

"Quack~"

"Ahh

Several Pokémon also waved goodbye to the group of children.

Seeing them bouncing out of the pasture, Naoki was a little uneasy, so he asked Kuailong to follow them and send them home.

"Whew~"

Kuailong obediently followed.

Zach saw this scene from afar, and he laughed: "It seems that you are very popular with these children!" ”

Naoki was also quite emotional: "The main thing is that they are all relatively well-behaved, no one will not like obedient children, right?" ”

"Haha! Good children are indeed likeable. Zach agreed: "Okay, today's goods...... I've calculated, it's a total of 48,000 alliance coins, oh, take it! ”

Naoki reached out and took it, and then helped Zach carry the goods to the car.

"See you later!"

Zach sat in the driver's seat, waved Naoki through the glass, and drove away from the ranch.

Seeing the car disappear at the end of the road, Naoki turned around and went back to his room, where he and his sister prepared dinner for the day.

Halfway through, the dragon returned to the ranch.

Naoki looked up at it and asked, "Is it going well?" ”

Kuailong nodded happily: "Whew~"

"That'll do." Naoki smiled slightly: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go and have a good rest first, and we can have dinner later." ”

"Whew~" Kuailong readily agreed.

Today's dinner Naoki prepared an unusually sumptuous dish.

Fried pork steak, chicken stewed with mushrooms, sandwiches, milk pudding, tree fruit cake, mellow Baofen, stewed pork ribs, steak, pumpkin soup, pumpkin biscuits......

It contains almost every Pokémon's favorite food.

Pokémon is happy to eat, and Naoki is happy to watch.

After dinner, Naoki thought about what the children had said this afternoon.

He first found his fast dragon and asked it, "By the way, fast dragon, do you hibernate in winter?" ”

Kuailong blinked his eyes wide, looking puzzled: "Huh? ”

What is Hibernation?

Naoki thought for a moment and explained, "Even when it's cold, do you hide in the cave and sleep?" ”

Some Pokémon have this habit.

In winter, it is difficult to find food, and in order to slow down the loss of energy, these Pokémon will eat enough before the winter comes, and then hide in their warm nests and start falling asleep until spring blooms and everything recovers.

After Naoki's explanation, the fast dragon understood what he meant, and it nodded its head: "Whew! ”

Some dragons do, but for them, it doesn't matter if they hibernate or not!

Because Kuailong Island is located in the middle of the sea, the climate is not too cold even in winter, and there are a large number of small fish in the sea, so they don't have to worry about food at all.

Hearing this, Naoki nodded thoughtfully.

Then, he found the two wild dragons who were about to return to Dragon Island with Bao Fen and the five hackdragons.

Naoki: "Tomorrow is winter, the weather will get colder and colder, and I am afraid that it will snow at that time, so if the road is too cold, you can rest on the island for a while and come back to work when the weather is warmer." ”

Hearing this, the fast dragons and hackdragons immediately shook their heads, indicating that they were not afraid of the cold!

Naoki: "......"

He said helplessly: "Okay, then I'll come back to see the situation when it snows, go, today's work is over, you guys go home quickly!" ”

Under the gaze of the fast dragon, the group of fast dragons and hack dragons happily said goodbye to Naoki, and then waved their increasingly rounded claws and flew in the direction of the fast dragon island.

In the blink of an eye, they were gone.

Whenever this time comes, Naoki can't help but be glad that most of the fast dragons on Kuailong Island still want to save face.

Otherwise, if they all stayed on his ranch like these fast dragons for food, he would have been eaten up long ago.

Speaking of dragons, Naoki hasn't forgotten that there is a dragon on his ranch.

He thought for a moment, then turned back to his house and took out a basket of pumpkin crackers to the lake where the Hackrons usually stayed, coughed lightly, and asked, "Is Giratina here?" ”

No response.

"It doesn't seem to be there." Naoki muttered.

The poisonous mushrooms he picked that time had already been eaten by him, and he could no longer see the reversed world through the poisonous mushroom soup.

And after that mountain fire, it was difficult to pick poisonous mushrooms in the back mountains.

In addition, Giratina may be bored, and he will not peep around this place all the time, and from time to time he will leave the area and wander around to other places.

Now, he has unilaterally lost contact with Giratina.

Just as Naoki was about to go back with the basket, a purple whirlpool suddenly appeared above the calm lake in front of him.

Coming back?

Naoki was slightly stunned, and then threw the basket in his hand.

The purple swirls faded away.

Naoki didn't care, got up and smiled, and went back to the living room.

By this time, it was completely dark outside.

Due to the holiday, today's Pokémon Tavern is closed for one day, and the brothers and sisters stay at home.

The elder brother is cleaning with a broom, and the younger sister is boiling hot water next to her, ready to turn around and help Naoki make tea.

Naoki called the brother and sister over and said to them: "After a while, I will go out to run some errands, and it may take about half a month to come back, and then I will ask you to take care of my family." ”

Hearing that Naoki was going out again, the motorcycle lizard lying in front of the fireplace immediately stood up.

Naoki noticed it and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll take you with me this time." ”

"Quack!" The motorcycle lizard was overjoyed.

The two caregivers nodded slightly: "Love~"

Don't worry, they'll take care of everything in the house!

"Thank you, I'll bring you a gift when I get back." Naoki smiled and touched his sister's beloved head.

The elder brother on the side loves to take care of the little face, and his face is tense.

Seeing this, Naoki also reached out and touched it.

In the next second, he saw that his brother's beloved waiter's face was visibly red, and he seemed to feel a little embarrassed.

Naoki raised his eyebrows, didn't say much, just withdrew his hand and said, "It's not too early, you guys go and rest first!" I'll just take a look over there. ”

The brother and sister nodded in a daze, and then obediently returned to their room.

Naoki stayed in the living room, waited for the hot water to boil, then went up to turn off the fire, poured the hot water into the insulated kettle before going back to the room to rest.

Autumn is over, and by the time the clock strikes 12 o'clock at midnight, winter will officially begin!

With anticipation for the rest of his life, Naoki closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep to the comfortable snoring of Babu Tupa in his arms.
