Early the next morning, Xia You had breakfast at the Pokémon Center and came to the Yuhong Gym again.
Because it was still early, the construction workers had not started work yet, and the door of the temporary wooden house was still locked. Seeing this, Xia You was not in a hurry, but found a place with sunlight and stood there waiting quietly.
The morning breeze blew on her body, and she felt a little cold. Not long after, Li Jia came over from a distance, accompanied by several pretty girls.
She is still dressed in a kimono today, but compared to her everyday trivial style, today's outfit is obviously more suitable for traveling. Not only is it more close-fitting, the sleeves and trouser legs are also tied with strings to make them tight. deal with.
I have to say that every time I see Rika, she wears a different style of kimono. I don’t know if it’s a family rule or if she really likes this kind of dress.
Arriving in front of Xia You, she bowed slightly and said apologetically: "Sorry, I was late. Did I keep you waiting?"
"No, no." Xia You smiled, "I've just arrived, um... are you ready? If there's no problem, let's set off now!"
Nodding, Lijia took the backpack from a girl and waved to them.
"You can go back and just send it here. From now on, you will take care of the gym and shop!"
The girls had tears in their eyes, and they surrounded Li Jia, obviously very reluctant to leave.
"Sister Lijia! Please take care of yourself!"
"Sister Lijia, you must come back soon!"
"Sister Lijia..."
For a moment, Xia You's ears were filled with the sounds of girls chirping. Although each of them sounded very pleasant individually, when they were added together, it was so noisy that it made his head grow bigger!
"You guys..." Seeing them like this, Li Jia smiled and shook her head, softly comforting her, "There's no need to be so sad. It's not a separation of life and death. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
In fact, it can be seen from this that although Li Jia has a relationship with them as boss and employee, their relationship is very harmonious. Xia You even remembers that when she first came to the perfume shop and Yuhong Gym, the atmosphere there was very Relaxed and harmonious, you can also see how approachable Li Jia is.
Saying goodbye to these reluctant girls, Li Jia turned around and walked with Xia You out of the gym area and into the street until they could no longer be seen.
"It can be seen that they are really reluctant to let you leave."
Hearing this, Li Jia couldn't help showing a look of reminiscence: "After all, I have been with them for a long time. I even got to know some of them when they were young. Over such a long time, they have become very good friends. !”
Gee, what a deep friendship, it’s really enviable...
The two of them walked along the street for a while. When they came to an intersection, Xia You suddenly stopped and faced Li Jia.
"Next, it's time for us to choose a route to Chengdu. Do you want to take a plane? Or take a boat? Or go to Jinhuang City first and then take the maglev train to Manjin City?"
Just like Xia You said yesterday, transportation is now extremely developed. In addition to walking or riding Pokémon, they can consider other faster human transportation methods.
In addition to an airport in the suburbs, although Yuhong City is located in the center of Kanto, the city also has a large port due to the existence of the inland sea, with many ships traveling to and from other areas every day.
Of course, flying is the best choice, as it takes the shortest time and is the most efficient, while the maglev train is second, but it requires returning to Jinhuang City. As for taking a boat, it will undoubtedly waste more time due to the slow waterway, and is also the best option for Xiayou. Not recommended route.
Originally, according to Xia You's wishes, it would be most appropriate to ride a fire-breathing dragon back to the city. However, this time traveling with Li Jia, out of respect, Xia You could not act arbitrarily and had to seek her opinion first.
Lijia thought for a moment, but did not make a choice. Instead, she asked: "If it is normal, how do you travel?"
Xia You said without thinking: "For short distances, just walk. For longer distances, just rely on the Charizard. Although the Charizard doesn't fly very fast, it's more convenient. You can stop and go when you want. It's very free!"
"Then let's ride Charizard together." Li Jia smiled, "You are still challenging the gym, so you must continue to train Pokémon on the road, right? Then just follow your method, don't accommodate mine! "
"this…"
"Don't worry." Li Jia shook her fist at him, "I am also a trainer after all, not so delicate!"
He is really considerate...
Xia You was still hesitant, but since Li Jia had said so, he stopped trying to persuade her.
"Okay, then let's take the fire-breathing dragon back to the city. However, the long flight will inevitably be a bit hard. If you feel uncomfortable, don't be polite. Just tell me. We can stop and take a rest. Then set off on your way again!”
Seeing Li Jia nod, Xia You took out the elf ball and released the fire-breathing dragon.
First, he helped Li Jia hang her luggage on the side of the Charizard, and then he helped her sit on it like a gentleman. After she sat firmly, he rode on the Charizard.
When traveling with Nazi, Nazi usually sits in front and leans into Xia You's arms, but now it's Li Jia. In line with the distinction between men and women, she sits behind Xia You and talks to Xia You. You kept a certain distance and avoided touching each other.
Everything was ready. Xia You touched the neck of the fire-breathing dragon and told it to fly as smoothly as possible. Then with a tap of its feet, the fire-breathing dragon jumped into the air, spread its wings and flew high into the clouds, carrying them towards the city. Let's all go!
…
Chengdu, in the sky above a currently unknown area.
After setting off from Yuhong City, after a day's flight, they finally arrived in the city before nightfall.
On the way, the two of them only came down once for lunch, and spent the rest of the time on the road until now.
Just like Li Jia said, she is indeed not as delicate as she looks.
Whether she is the owner of a perfume shop or a flower arranger, apart from these two identities, she is first and foremost a gym leader and a trainer. Therefore, whether it is the cold air or the boring journey, she does not care. and persisted.
At least that's the surface.
After checking the time and seeing that it was getting late, Xia You turned around and said to Li Jia: "Well, since we have arrived at the city, we are not in a hurry to leave. I think we should rest here for the night first!"
