Chapter 16: Fist! (please follow up)

Back home, the Motorized Lizard had already gone to rest. The noise in Kabukicho didn't affect it at all, but Hoshino couldn't sleep at all.

He looked at the extremely dazzling flash of light on the phone screen in front of him, almost next to him. This represented the long-tailed fire fox just now!

He had discovered this after the other party came in before, so he took the initiative to try to win his favor, so that the other party could let down his guard and have a good chat.

"I've been working for two and a half years... I have a trainer... I'm reminded of him in the backyard... I want to work here for the last night even if I don't get paid..."

Hoshino uses his mobile phone memo to record all these things. This mobile phone seems to never need to be charged, which is quite convenient.

And this information was actually given by King Daidai. If you think about what the other party said when he finally went out, you can know that this boss Daidai is really not stupid at all, and he doesn't know when the other party saw him.

I care about this very much...

After combining this information and analyzing it, we know that Long Tail Firefox must really like his job at Dai Dai Izakaya, so much so that after waiting for so many days, it is rare to find an opportunity to come out just to say that he wants to resign.

But there will be no chance in the future, because it has been stored in the backyard, and finally the trainer remembers it, and then takes it with him to travel around, so it will be difficult to continue working here.

"Pokémon and the trainer... so is this what it is worried about? It was left in the backyard for so long and is rarely remembered. It should indeed be happy. The feelings are still there, but traveling with the trainer means giving up.

My favorite job."

After analyzing it, Hoshino already understood. No wonder King Daidai asked him to take less care of it. After all, this was the other party's family matter. If he was not careful, only the long-tailed fire fox would be injured in the end.

"It is indeed a bit troublesome, so the most important thing is to let it eliminate the trouble of making choices, and the source of all this is its trainer!"

After capturing the Pokémon in one ball, he left it in the backyard to expand the ecology, and then ignored it for two years or more, just collecting a illustrated book.

What should I say about this kind of behavior? Is it irresponsible for Pokémon? At least Hoshino doesn’t have a good impression of such a trainer, and is even very disgusted!

In fact, he also hopes that Long Tail Firefox can stay and work in the izakaya, so that after gaining the other party's friendship, he can help promote himself a little while working.

But what if the relationship between the long-tailed firefox and the trainer is really good? That's hard to say, so he also made a decision not to take direct action for the time being, but to go and see the trainer first.

If the other party has no problem, then his plan will have to be abandoned, and he will finally find an opportunity to enlighten the long-tailed fire fox and provide psychological counseling.

But if the other party really has a problem...that's a shame. Depending on the situation, you can enjoy the treatment of being repeatedly crushed by a motorcycle lizard at high speed.

"It's better to pay more attention to everything. I hope it won't end up being a disservice in the end..."

After all, this should be the first time that he has helped a Pokémon seriously, and he still makes decisions without the other party knowing.

However, in order to establish and operate Wanshiwu in the future, he may need to accumulate more experience. This action must be taken seriously!

For this reason, Hoshino didn't sleep all night. His mobile phone still has no network, and he can't do anything else. He just keeps waiting...

Finally, at nearly 3 o'clock in the morning, the long-tailed fire fox left the Daidai Izakaya. Naturally, it was impossible for it to stay until dawn before going back.

"I'm really tired, let's go!"

"Mo Lizard~"

Hoshino woke up the Biker Lizard, who was full of energy just after waking up. Then they followed him quietly along the path. There were quite a lot of Pokémon on the street, but the sudden appearance of a human was too conspicuous.

Soon they left Kabukicho, and as expected they were chased by stray cats, but they ran so fast that these guys couldn't catch up.

The long-tailed firefox didn't notice anyone following him. After leaving the izakaya, his mood dropped again. Perhaps he had finally completed the final work, and his expression was slightly better than before.

Finally, it came all the way to the outside of an ecological park of a research institute in the south of Hau'ole City, and then got in through a hole in the ground. It seemed that it came in and out from this place every time.

Hoshino and Biker stopped here because they couldn't get in. The map showed that this place was a small Pokémon research institute.

In this ecological park, there are some Pokémon stored by trainers who are traveling. It is not just a person's backyard.

"I didn't expect it to be a place like this. Trouble is, I can't get into this dog hole."

Hoshino took off his goggles and hung them around his neck. He stared at the high wall in front of him, his expression lost in thought. It was not dawn yet, and it was impossible for someone to come to work and let him in through the front door.

"Send, there is nothing we can do, go back..."

He wouldn't let the Motorcycle Lizard punch a hole in the wall, otherwise it would be too rude to wait until dawn and go directly to the Orange. He just wrote a review there yesterday and entered the palace at the speed of light.

Just when he was about to turn around, the Motorized Lizard seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly ran over from the side and bit a branch on the ground in front of the dog hole.

"Huh? Wait! Don't bite it off!"

Hoshino quickly grabbed the branch. He recognized it as the one stuck in the tail of the long-tailed fire fox. It must have been accidentally rubbed off when he drilled through the hole absentmindedly just now...

At this time, there seemed to be some noise. He immediately hid behind a tree with the Motorized Lizard and began to observe the situation. Then the Long-tailed Firefox came out of the hole again with an anxious look on his face, as if he was looking for branches.

Just when Hoshino was about to quietly throw the branch in his hand, another man's voice suddenly came from the distance: "What are you doing here?"

"huohu!"

The long-tailed fire fox looked over there, and saw a man in a suit walking out of the dark forest with a poison skull frog.

Hoshino used the moonlight to look at the other person. He didn't know this guy, but the other person's appearance looked quite kind.

The man stepped forward, stretched out his hand and stroked the long-tailed fox's head gently, and said with a worried look on his face: "I couldn't find you all night, which made me worried to death. I thought something had happened to you."

"huohu..."

"What's wrong?"

"huohu!"

The long-tailed fire fox hugged its tail and shouted anxiously. The man took one look and understood instantly. After thinking for a moment, he asked: "Is the branch that your mother left behind lost?"

"hu!"

"I see... Don't worry, I will help you find it. After all, it is something very important to you, so you should go back and rest first. Looking at your tired look, I know that you have not slept all night. This is not good for your body.

Very good.”

The man continued to stroke its head. Perhaps out of trust in the trainer, the long-tailed fire fox nodded, and then burrowed back.

Seeing it like this, the man sighed helplessly and murmured: "It actually came out from here, which really worries me, but I can't rest, I have to help it find branches..."

Watching the man walking away, Hoshino, who had been secretly observing, also sighed at this moment, because the long-tailed fire fox's shining point disappeared, which meant that it no longer needed help. This was what the trainer just said.

The trust that said those words.

"Looks like it's not necessary anymore. It's so tiring. All the hard work was in vain. In the end, this guy surprisingly turned out to be a human being. You saved your life..."

Hoshino chuckled lightly, but he didn't complain too much. Since the long-tailed fire fox no longer needed help, he could only think of other ways, such as establishing a good relationship with Nai-chan and then asking for help?

"With Na-chan's personality, it should be relatively easy to gain friendship. You can give it a try!"

With that said, he took the Motorized Lizard back the same way and left. However, in this quiet grove, as long as the sound is slightly louder, it can be easily heard, just like the sound of someone making a phone call...

"Has the Painter arrived yet? Let's exchange it tonight. I've wanted that Pokémon for a long time, and I've been to Padea twice but couldn't find it."

"..."

"Didn't we discuss it already? I'll trade it with you for the long-tailed fire fox. Anyway, it's the same as the Fire Beast. It's no different. Moreover, mine is much rarer than the Tubiao, so it's hard to find it in the wild!"

"..."

"I caught it a long time ago. Didn't you say you wanted the fire-type Yusanjia? I even forgot that there was a long-tailed fire fox in the backyard, but it lost a branch, and I had to waste time to help find one. It's really tiring..."

"..."

"Well, if you don't mind, let's meet at Dalang Beach in the evening. Don't make me wait too long!"

Listening to the man's voice on the phone, he gradually walked away in the woods. Hoshino, who stopped, had a sly smile on his face and clenched his fists unconsciously.

"You! Yes!"
