Not a trainer this time

200th year of the Alliance Calendar, November 3, winter.

The cold wind from the top of Frost Mountain swept across the entire Padiya land, and white snowflakes fell from the sky.

In the cold weather, the Pokémon in the wild also hid in their nests, and it was difficult to find any traces.

The ranch was also covered with white snow, and the flying snowflakes were like elves between heaven and earth, floating lively in the air.

In winter, the ranch is not suitable for growing crops. As early as the beginning of the heavy snow, Naoki gave the Dragonites a holiday and let them stay in the warm World Tree for a good winter.

The ranch shop temporarily stopped business, and suddenly, the whole ranch became idle.

Eevee and Eruption went to play on the World Tree again, leaving only a few Pokémon at home.

The lava worm nested in the fireplace in the living room, and the heat released from it floated along the pipes to every corner of the room, even the utility room was warm.

Naoki sat in a rocking chair in front of the fireplace to relax his mind, while Motorlizard and Gulton lay lazily on the carpet next to him.

Turning his head to look at the two Pokémon next to him, Naoki's thoughts could not help but return to the summer three months ago.

At that time, in the sky full of fireworks, Qishu confessed to him.

Naoki was completely confused at the time, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

Qishu looked a little disappointed when he saw his reaction at that time.

Naoki still remembered what he said to Qishu.

He said: This is a bit too sudden.

In Qishu's lost look, Naoki felt a little bit sorry.

He admitted that he had a certain affection for her, and told Qishu truthfully that he had never had a love experience and didn't know what love was.

As for feelings, Naoki has always attached great importance to them. After coming to this world, he once thought about forming a family of his own.

Just like Mayor Thomas and Mrs. Dantes, they take care of the Pokémon on the ranch with their lovers, live together, and grow old together.

Have another child, take him/her to meet Pokémon, go to the ice field to see seal balls, go diving to see love fish, go to the desert to see rogue crocodiles, go to the bamboo forest to see naughty pandas... Just live a plain life.

Although Qishu didn't get a reply immediately, she was very happy when she knew that Zhishu also had a good impression of her.

Later...

The two met Yeci and Xinli on the beach.

Yeci said that she came to inspect the town of Ziqin, but seeing the smiling expression on her face, Zhishu always felt that Yeci was weird.

After that night, the two returned to their respective residences.

Qishu would still visit the ranch as usual when he had time, bringing some small gifts and snacks made by himself for Zhishu and Pokémon.

With the arrival of Qishu, the ranch always seemed particularly lively, just like her, and even Zhishu felt that he was full of energy.

Thinking back to these things, Zhishu couldn't help but smile.

Today is Sunday, and the Brewing Light Gym should have rested. According to past experience, Qishu should have arrived at the ranch by now.

Naoki glanced at the time on Rotom's phone and found that it was almost noon.

Realizing his current behavior, Naoki suddenly found that he began to look forward to the arrival of Qishu every week.

His sister Ai Guanshi beside him had been secretly observing Naoki's expression.

After a long while, it couldn't help but come up and ask: "Aiyi?" (Is Naoki waiting for Qishu to come?)

Naoki was a little embarrassed and said seriously: "No, I'm looking at tomorrow's weather."

However, his emotions were keenly captured by his sister Ai Guanshi, who seemed very happy:

"Aiyi!" (In this way, we will soon be able to welcome the little master!)

In its view, as long as two people like each other, they can lay eggs soon.

They are like this for Pokémon, and humans must be like this too!

Naoki: "..."

"Ahem." Realizing his sister Ai Guanshi's misunderstanding, Naoki coughed twice and couldn't help but corrected him: "No, it's not like that!"

The sister Ai Guanshi turned around in confusion: "Ahem?"

Naoki: "There is a big difference between humans and Pokémon in this matter. Take Pokémon for example, as long as they like each other and stay together every day, they will soon lay eggs."

"But humans are different. Liking is important, but the premise is whether the two people are suitable to live together. Only after they have completed the running-in, can they hold a wedding and live together."

"Ahem..." The sister Ai Guanshi suddenly felt that humans were so troublesome.

But Babu Tubo, who was standing next to her, heard the topic of the little master that the sister Ai Guanshi was talking about.

It flew over excitedly: "Bamo Bamo?" (Will the little master live with us?)

Sister Ai Guanshi answered for Naoki: "Aye!" (Of course! My brother and I will take good care of it when the time comes!)

Naoki: "..."

Babu Tubo's eyes rolled around, and he didn't know what he was thinking about, and then asked:

"Bamo Bamo?" (In this case, will Naoki have a granddaughter? Will Naoki's granddaughter come to visit the ranch and become good friends with me and the lava worms?)

This question confused sister Ai Guanshi.

"Ai huh?" (It seems a bit too early for this, right?)

Naoki: "..."

He rubbed the fur of Babu Tubo and said to it: "Look less at the warm lava worm house!"

"Bamo~"

Babu Tubo leaned on Naoki's arms and acted like a spoiled child.

After being teased by Babu Tubo, Naoki actually began to imagine the scene of his children's children coming to the ranch to visit and explore in the future.

By that time, he should be in his seventies or eighties, right?

Oops, he was led astray by Babu Tubo!

Naoki shook his head quickly and threw away the picture in his mind.

He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qishu.

[Wing King: Are you coming today? ]

Qishu did not reply immediately. After a while, Naoki suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Babu Tubo, who was close to the door, immediately ran forward to open the door.

As the door opened, Naoki turned his head and saw Qishu standing in front of the door with a smile on his face.

"It's really cold today!" She rubbed her hands constantly because of the cold.

In fact, Qishu is still very afraid of the cold. In the past winters, she stayed at home with the Pokémon most of the time.

Naoki stood up with a smile: "Come here and warm yourself by the fire. After all, it snowed yesterday. I have heard a proverb before, it's not cold when it snows, but when it melts."

"I know!"

Qishu walked in with a giggle, and came to the fireplace to warm herself with the lava worm. The lava worm was warm, and the orange light on its body reflected the surrounding fireplace into an orange-red color.

Naoki went to pour a cup of hot tea for Qishu to warm herself up.

And Ai Guanshi and Babu Tubo curiously came to Qishu and observed her.

"Hi! Good morning!" Qishu smiled and greeted the two Pokémon: and the little motorcycle lizard and Gulerton! "

"Ah, gah~"

"Gah! "

At this time, Naoki came over with a cup of hot tea. When he handed the cup to Qishu, he suddenly noticed that Qishu seemed to be a little different today.

The colored Magnemite on her head disappeared!

"Where is Magnemite?" Naoki asked.

Qishu remembered that there was such a thing. She touched her head and said embarrassedly:

"I always feel that kind of dress is something that only children like. It's a bit too childish."

Since they parted that day, Qishu felt that it was time for her to make some changes.

She can't be as childish as before, because she is already an adult and should become more mature and stable like an adult.

Naoki was slightly startled. Did Qishu make the change for him?

At this time, Qishu looked up hopefully and asked with a red cheek: "What about now?"

"What?"

"Do you like me a little more now? "

Naoki was stunned, and then he felt touched.

After a moment, he moved his lips, and the words he wanted to say next made the usually reserved Naoki a little difficult to say.

But the girl was so proactive, he couldn't just keep being passive, that would be too unmanly.

Thinking of this, Naoki took a deep breath, and although he still felt a little embarrassed, he still said seriously:

"Although I don't know what love is, if it means looking forward to seeing you every day and wanting to chat with you, I think... I probably like you too! "

"Ah, gah~"

Gulden looked at this scene with great joy.

The butler brothers and sisters were also very happy. In this way, they no longer had to worry about Naoki dying alone.

Although there was a group of Pokémon accompanying Naoki, it would be better for humans to live with humans.

Because in some places, Pokémon can't replace humans.

And Babu and Lavaworm were also very happy.

In this way, Naoki would have a granddaughter!

Then his granddaughter would come to the ranch to visit the Lavaworms and make friends with them, just like in the Nuan Nuan Lavaworm House!
