After leaving the Citrus Stadium and going down the hill, Xia You took Xiaozhi and the others to the bed and breakfast where they rented.
At this time, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and the spectators on the street had begun to slowly disperse, but there were still many people lingering around, reminiscing and talking about the game just now, and in order to avoid being recognized by them, Xia You could only put on his hat and glasses, and once again wrapped himself tightly.
This is the price of being in the limelight. If he wants to avoid being disturbed, he can only choose to do this.
When the group entered the courtyard of the B&B, Xia You spent a lot of money and ordered a large table full of food and drinks from the proprietress.
The most important thing after winning the championship is the celebration, and there is nothing better than a sumptuous meal to reward yourself!
At night, it was pitch dark outside. Xia You and the others put the large Pokémon in the yard and prepared separate food for them, while the other small Pokémon sat together on the long low table on the tatami like them. forward.
Under the bright lights, the room was crowded, but it seemed extremely lively.
The proprietress obviously also watched Xia You win the championship through TV. She was very happy to see such a famous guest staying, so she gave some extra sushi and bottles of sake as gifts.
A dazzling array of various dishes fills the entire table, exuding an alluring luster and aroma.
Once the dishes are ready, it’s time to start eating and drinking!
“Let’s drink!!!”
Everyone picked up their wine glasses and clinked them, and drank them all in one gulp. Except for Xia You and Na Zi, both Xiao Zhi and Xiao Xia stuck out their tongues after drinking, and even Xiao Jian frowned slightly. , obviously can't stand the smell of alcohol.
"Ahem...it's so spicy!" Xiaozhi covered his stomach with a very uncomfortable expression, feeling that every blood vessel in his body was burning!
"You guys..." Seeing their appearance, Xia You couldn't help laughing, "The alcohol content of this wine is already very low. If you still can't get used to it, why don't you just drink juice honestly? You have to make a noise. Drinking together, how about it, you can’t stand it now, right?”
"What does it matter!" Hearing Xia You's slightly gloating tone, Xiaoxia said unconcernedly, "I just want to try it because I'm not used to drinking it, and I'm so happy today, so of course I have to drink it! "
Because everyone was very familiar with each other, when the dinner started, the atmosphere was directly pushed to the climax.
Xiaozhi's eating appearance was as usual, as if he hadn't eaten food for several years. He devoured the food in a voracious manner and had no image at all. Compared with him, Nazhi chewed her food slowly and looked extremely ladylike.
Gengar was making faces while performing a show to add to the fun. Xiao Jian was telling humorous stories in a low voice on the other side. The Pokémon were laughing and playing. Even Xia You teased Xiao Xia a few words due to the strength of the wine. She blushed, and for a moment, the room was filled with laughter.
When dinner was halfway through, everyone had food in their stomachs, and the pace finally slowed down.
"By the way, Xiaozhi." Looking at Xiaozhi, Xia You reminded, "Since you also want to challenge the Winner's Cup, don't forget to sign up tomorrow. The rules here are that if you don't make an appointment in advance, you can't challenge Yongji. .”
Xiaozhi was chewing a chicken drumstick in his mouth and said with a slurred mouth: "I know, I'll go there tomorrow!"
Rolling his eyes, Xia You said with a bad smile: "I have greeted the chief trainer in advance and introduced you emphatically. When the time comes, he will definitely entertain you well. You just need to enjoy the battle! "
"That's it..." Xiaozhi naturally didn't know that Xia You had dug another hole for him for his growth. He still said with an innocent expression of gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Xia You, I will definitely work harder!"
On the other side of the table, Xiaoxia also asked: "Brother Xia You, what are your plans next?"
Xia You said without thinking: "Of course we are going to the next area."
"Next area?" Xiaozhi's eyes lit up and he became interested, "Where are you going to the next area?"
"I should go to Johto to challenge the Silver Tournament. After all, it's the closest place."
"Eh? Aren't you going to stay and watch my game?"
"Still not." Xia You shook his head, "I believe you will definitely win, and you are chasing too hard and growing too fast. I must leave early to maintain enough advantages!"
Regarding Xia You's sudden affirmation, Xiaozhi felt like a fire was lit in his heart, and he was completely moved!
After dinner, Xia You borrowed karaoke from the proprietress. Except for Nazi, who went to the hot spring alone, the group sang till late.
This singing continued until past eleven o'clock, and after Xia You washed up, she was still so excited that she couldn't help but toss Na Zi again until late at night.
Early the next morning, Xiaozhi had to register early.
Before going out, he said his final farewell to Xia You: "Brother Xia You, after playing the Victor's Cup, I will go back to Zhenxin Town first and hand the GS ball to Dr. Omu. When everything is over, I will Come to the city to find you!"
"Then I wish you a successful challenge, and we'll see you next time." Xia You rubbed his eyes and said sleepily, "Also, remember to say hello to Aunt Hanako and Dr. Omu for me!"
Xiaozhi and Xiaojian left, but Xiaoxia looked back three times as always, with eyes full of reluctance.
After watching them disappear, Xia You went back to the room and took a nap. After waiting until the sun was shining, she packed up, checked out with Na Zi, and left the B&B.
But before heading off to the next area, he had one last thing to do, and that was to pay a visit to the fruit stall he made a bet with.
Follow the street until you reach the beach you visited before.
When Xia You and Na Zi came to the stall again, they saw the stall owner and found that he had packed all the oranges!
Seeing Xia You, the stall owner inevitably looked a little embarrassed.
After all, he had said before that Yuuji was absolutely unbeatable, but now he was easily eliminated 6-0 by the young man in front of him. How could he not be embarrassed?
Install the latest version. 】
Xia You was the first to say hello and broke the silence: "Hey, boss, do you still remember me? As promised, I'll get the oranges!"
"Of course, of course, I'm ready."
The stall owner pointed to the side, letting Xia You see a dozen boxes of packaged oranges.
"Haha, I'm kidding you, how could I eat so much." Xia You quickly waved his hand, "I only need three boxes, you can keep the rest."
"this…"
According to the previous bet between the two of them, the stall owner was willing to admit defeat and was ready, but he didn't expect Xia You to change his mind!
Seeing the stall owner's hesitation, Xia You smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I can't eat too much, but it's a waste. Just do as I say."
"All right."
Seeing Xia You's insistence, the stall owner nodded, and then tentatively said: "Well...can you please sign your autograph for me? My grandson likes you very much!"
"of course."
Xia You took the pen, brushed a few strokes on the signature plate, wrote his name, and then asked: "What is your grandson's name?"
"His name is Achi."
Xia You didn't stop writing and continued to write: I wish Ah Chi to become an outstanding trainer!
Taking the signed copy with both hands, the stall owner put it away solemnly, then picked up three boxes of oranges and handed them to Xia You.
Naturally, it was not Xia You's turn to do such physical work. As a red Pokémon landed from the sky, Charizard easily held three boxes of oranges in his arms.
After saying goodbye to the stall owner, Xia You quickly found another courier company.
He gave the oranges to the courier and paid them to mail a box of them to Sakuragi Research Institute to share with everyone. By the way, he also mailed the Victor's Cup trophy and a photo of him and Pokémon together. .
Since he has no fixed residence yet, his room in the Sakuragi Research Institute has become the place where these trophies are placed, including some of his personal belongings and the trophies from the Quartz Conference, all piled there.
With Xiaochun helping to take care of them, there is no need to worry about losing them.
Finally, Xia You mailed another box of oranges to Li Jia.
When he was chatting with Li Jia before, he knew that Li Jia liked plants very much, and the oranges here were so delicious, so he wondered if they could be grown in her greenhouse.
After doing this, he and Nazhi boarded the fire-breathing dragon and headed towards the metropolis of the Orange Islands.
There, they can take a cruise ship directly to the Johto area and avoid many detours.
At this point, Xia You's adventure on the Seven Islands and the Orange Islands is officially over. Along the way, in addition to beautiful memories, there are also full harvests!
