Adventurer of the Elf World

Chapter 34: Pichu's Past

At this time, Pichu, who had been squatting on Xiu's shoulders, jumped up from him and jumped directly to the front desk.

The store clerk's nervous expression relaxed slightly after seeing Pichu, but her eyes still drifted towards Xiu.

Xiu felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at him, so he instinctively took a step back, and inadvertently saw his current appearance through the reflection of the glass door.

To be honest, the current state of repair is very poor, the appearance is slovenly, and I look like a non-mainstream person with beggar attire.

It was fine at first, but the clothes were a bit old, and the whole person was still clean. But I was woken up just now, and I didn't have time to take care of my clothes. Then, I was blown by the strong wind, and my hair was all messed up. Immediately It becomes Shamate.

It’s no wonder the store clerk had such a reaction.

"I'm sorry..." Xiu tidied up his appearance a little and showed his true face. Only then did he feel the other party's eyes slightly leave, and at the same time heard her whisper.

"Why are you here? Is it going to rain again..."

"Pichu Pichu!"

Xiu watched the two of them talking and had no intention of interrupting. He found a corner near the door that would not affect others and sat down. He leaned against the glass wall of the convenience store and watched the outside gradually change. Heavy rain.

As soon as I relax and contemplate my thoughts, I can't help but drift away with the raindrops.

What happened on the last rainy night is still vivid in my mind, as if it was just yesterday.

That night completely changed his peaceful life, and he didn't know what would happen now if he had hid honestly at the beginning...

"Pichu~"

A cry pulled Xiu back, and when he looked down, Pichu jumped onto his lap, shouting.

"Pichu~"

Before Xiu could guess what it meant, another sound distracted him.

"Hello, who are you..." The clerk came over with a glass of steaming water.

Seeing the other party coming, Xiu quickly stood up and said, "Hello, I will leave when the rain stops. I won't trouble you. If there is any inconvenience, I will leave now."

Xiu looked at the other party carefully.

The girl has delicate features and a thin body. She has long, slightly withered hair hanging on her body. She is wearing very ordinary clothes and an orange vest with a convenience store logo on it.

"Um...my name is Xiaoyuan." The clerk didn't expect Xiu to be so easy to talk to. She was stunned for a moment. While introducing herself, she pushed out the water glass in her hand and said, "Um...please drink some water."

"Thank you." Xiu took the water glass and nodded towards her.

"This is a tissue..." Xiao Yuan said and pointed to Xiu's hair.

"Thanks!"

Xiu took the tissue as if he was flattered, but stopped talking about the topic. The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while, so Xiu had to find another topic.

"I thought I heard you talking to Pichu just now. Do you know each other?"

"Pichu!" Pichu heard Xiu mentioning him and immediately called out to indicate that he was there.

Xiu smiled and touched Pichu's head.

Seeing the interaction between the two of them, Xiao Yuan smiled and took over the conversation.

"I know, this little guy lives in the small park at the end of the street..."

I don’t know whether it was because the night shift was really boring or for some other reason, but Obara followed this topic and talked about Pichu.

And Xiu also re-understood Pichu from her perspective.

This Pichu has been in this area for a while. At first, it had a small bell on its body. She was not sure about the situation during the day, but at night she could hear the sound wandering around the nearby streets, and sometimes A trash can appears in front of the convenience store.

The contact between the two was limited to a quick glance through the glass door and the erratic sound of the bell.

But she didn't pay much attention to these, until one day it rained suddenly, and the sound of the bell disappeared.

In the past, she didn't think anything was wrong with it, and she even felt a little annoyed. But at that moment, she didn't know why, but a trace of worry arose in her heart.

Xiao Yuan looked at the violent storm outside. She was a little worried about where Pichu had gone.

It’s just that after two days of not hearing the ringing of the bell, the feeling fades away. It’s like a friend who has met a few times but is not familiar with leaves. It is inevitable to feel a little sad. At the same time, busy life and time will dilute everything.

And just when I was passing by a small park after get off work, I discovered Pichu dying in the corner by the sound of the bell.

At that time, she didn't understand the situation of the elf, so she just tried her best to give him some water and bread.

For three consecutive mornings, she would have breakfast in the small park when she got off work, and bring some water and food to Pichu.

Fortunately, Pichu carried it over and was not killed by the pain, but survived strongly.

After that, the two gradually became familiar with each other until today.

"The heavy rain you are talking about, could it be..."

Xiu couldn't help but ask after hearing this, and after asking for confirmation, he was even more surprised.

Unexpectedly, it was really the heavy rain that happened when the park suddenly changed. It seems that it changed more than just my life trajectory.

"So if it rains now, it will come here to take shelter. I just don't know why it seems to have lost its bell."

"Is this what you're talking about?"

As he spoke, Xiu took out a small copper bell and the red rope tied to it.

"That's it!" Xiao Yuan was a little curious when he saw the bell, and asked: "So are you its trainer?"

"No~" Xiu shook his head, then looked at the Pichu beside him and slowly told him about his encounter with it.

"What's the matter with it? Shouldn't all Pokémon have trainers?"

From this sentence, Xiu could tell that Xiao Yuan had not been exposed to this aspect. He probably got all the information about Pokémon and trainers from TV or hearsay.

"That's not the case. The relationship between Pokémon and trainers is not understood in this way." Then Xiu analyzed the situation based on his knowledge and said with emotion: "It should have been abandoned by the original trainer~"

"Abandoned!"

Xiao Yuan's mood seemed a little strange after hearing this word.

"I'm not sure either. It's better to ask it itself." Xiu had to focus his attention on the somewhat confused Pichu beside him.

The long conversation between the two humans obviously exceeded its ability to understand, and it seemed dull. It was not until Xiu looked at him that it became a little more confused and tilted its head to look at Xiu.

"Pichu?"

"Ask it? But how? It can't talk."

Obviously, Xiu's words were beyond Xiaoyuan's understanding again. Her reaction at this moment was not much better than Pichu's.

Xiu smiled slightly, took out the Poké Ball with his backhand, and boasted confidently.
