"???"
Agumon was confused.
It wasn't a bite this time, and it wasn't a bite either. Agumon froze on the spot for an instant.
Aoyagi also ended the countdown at this time, then slowly pulled his hand back, and said naturally while wiping saliva on Agumon.
"The countdown is over. Since you have no objection, I will take it as your acquiescence."
"You are...ahem...cheating."
Agumon said while covering his throat and coughing.
"Whether it's cheating or not is a trivial matter. The important thing is that since you regard me as an important friend, you can't take all the mistakes on yourself. Instead, you should choose to face it with your friends."
Aoyagi patted Agumon on the shoulder and said, "This is the most basic trust between friends."
Agumon heard this and wanted to say something more.
Aoyagi raised his hand, pretending to interrupt again, and Agumon immediately covered his mouth.
"Okay, don't look depressed. It's time to grill fish next. After you eat enough, you will have the strength to go on the road tomorrow."
[Intimacy] 60 → 70 (important friends)
Glancing at the changes on the panel, Aoyagi didn't give Agumon time to react. After picking up the fish on the ground and throwing it to Agumon, Aoyagi pushed it towards the fire.
Seeing Agumon's confused expression, wanting to say something but unable to say anything, Aoyagi chuckled and shook his head.
It was at this moment that the panel jumped again.
Qingliu stopped immediately and began to look around for the location where the panel had been triggered.
"Qingliu, what's wrong?"
"A Pokémon appears nearby," Aoyagi said.
"What?"
Agumon instantly became energetic and lowered his voice at the same time: "Is he the guy who stole our grilled fish just now?"
"Not sure, but it's best to be careful here."
While paying attention to the information on the panel, Qingliu turned slightly sideways to face the other party's position.
Agumon also opened his big green eyes, warily staring at the direction marked by Aoyagi.
Not far away, in the forest that was now completely plunged into darkness, a shadow gradually appeared.
Swish, swish, swish!
The shadow slowly passed through the bushes and walked out of the forest.
Judging from its path, it seemed to be heading towards where they were.
Even if it wasn't the Pokémon who stole the grilled fish, it was probably someone who came here with bad intentions.
Agumon's nerves tightened instantly, and the flames in his mouth began to slowly gather. As long as Aoyagi gave the order, it would definitely roast the opponent directly.
Qingliu put his hand on its shoulder, signaling it to calm down.
The man and the beast watched silently.
Until the shadow walked out of the shadow of the forest and came to the open space. Under the moonlight, its appearance gradually became clear.
It was a monkey-shaped Pokémon with a head, back, tail, and a large area of purple fur covering its entire body, with only some areas covered in beige.
But compared to its appearance, what is more eye-catching is that it has a tail on its butt that is far longer than its body.
The strangest thing is that at the end of this tail, there is not nothing, but a huge palm with three fingers. It looks like an extra hand has appeared out of thin air.
However, these are not what Agumon cares about. What it cares about is that it is catching something on its palm-shaped tail - a grilled fish.
The identity of the other party is obvious, a fish thief!
In this case, there is nothing more to say.
Agumon took a step forward, flames burning in his mouth, and was about to compress into a ball and launch an attack.
Aoyagi stretched out his hand and interrupted Agumon.
"etc."
Agumon looked at Aoliu in confusion.
"Don't worry, let's take a look and then talk."
Qingliu looked at the panel information that only he could see and said slowly.

[Information summary] It is described in ancient books as a magical Pokémon with only one hand. The power of the palm on its tail can maintain its balance while walking through the forest.
Over the long years of transformation, their tails have become more and more flexible, but their hands have become slower and slower.
He has a naughty personality and likes to play pranks and tease people. He has recorded more than 100 cases of snatching away travelers' things, so he is disliked by many travelers.
"The long-tailed monster... no wonder he could steal the grilled fish in such a short period of time and then escape the detection range of the panel."
Naturally, Qingliu also saw that what was on the other party's tail was his stolen grilled fish.
But logically speaking, there is no need to come back after the long-tailed monster steals the grilled fish. He can just eat it and run away.
But it turned back, which made Qingliu a little strange.
Until I saw a very abrupt green seed on the top of the head of the long-tailed monster, as well as "Being restrained" in the status bar, and after the long-tailed monster's information appeared on the panel, a second information popped up. It was only then that Qingliu noticed that there was a figure in the shadow of the forest behind the long-tailed monster.
It was a Pokémon wearing a stump-shaped hat that seemed to be covered with snow on its head. Its upper body was snow-white and its lower body was dark brown.
The thick arms and legs, coupled with the body shape of a bucket, make it look very stable overall.
At the same time, lines of small blue characters appeared in front of my eyes.
[Race] Snow monster

【Status】Healthy
[Information summary] Pokémon that live on mountains with deep snow will absorb nutrients by stepping into the snow. After spring, if they absorb too much nutrients, they will turn into fruit-like popsicles around their waists.
It is naturally gentle and close to humans. If it finds human footprints in the snow, it will actively follow the footprints to find humans. Even if it faces disobedient children, it will not lose its temper.
And the snow monster, which was characterized as gentle by the panel, was behind the long-tailed monster, urging something with a very serious expression.
The long-tailed monster glanced at the thick arms of the snow monster dangling in front of him with fear, and finally walked towards Aoliu and Agumon with an awkward expression, stood two meters away, stretched out its tail, and The stolen grilled fish was handed over.
Qingliu watched this scene with interest.
The current scene looks like a child who has made a mistake and is brought to the door by his parents to apologize.
But it doesn't seem right. It doesn't look like the two Pokémon know each other, but more like the result of a forced nuke by the Snowcatcher.
After all, who has a child who apologizes and is tied into a seed, and his big fist is shaken on the head from time to time.
So, is this snow hat monster acting bravely?
