After the New Year, Xu Qiansu will prepare for winter camping in five days.
We are both holders of illustrations, not to mention silly things, not to mention Ma Li, the protagonist of the game, etc. Just the supporting characters that have appeared in the past animations, few of them are ordinary people.
In addition, the participants are all this year's illustrated book holders... which means that some trainers may have been traveling for a year. A newcomer like him who has only traveled for a month has already suffered a loss in terms of training time alone.
At present, he only has Kirulian's combat power, and the small marsupial is still in the growth stage... and the standard starting Pokémon of the holder of the illustrated book are all the three families with great potential... Huh? Why doesn’t Miss Ma Li have a Yusan family?
He approached Ma Li and asked questions.
Miss Mali sat on the sofa and combed the pickpocket cat's fur with a brush. After hearing this, she replied: "Compared with objective factors such as the potential, strength, and quantity of Pokémon, whether the Pokémon likes you or whether it is suitable for you... This is the most important thing."
In other words, when faced with the Yusan family sent by Dr. Mulan, Ma Li rejected every one of them.
No wonder she only has two Pokémon at the moment.
As expected of someone from a wealthy gymnasium.
"But it's up to you how you choose..." Ma Li kept moving her hands and said: "I once met a trainer from the Sinnoh region when I was traveling. He pursues the principle of strength first and only conquers the powerful. Or if a Pokémon has potential, once the Pokémon's performance does not meet expectations, it will be eliminated without hesitation..."
Ma Li thought about it again and added, "But he is quite gentle towards the Pokémon he has chosen..."
"The release must be clean and tidy, and after deciding to cultivate it, treat the Pokémon wholeheartedly... This can barely be regarded as a trainer's professionalism." Ma Li finished her conclusion calmly.
Xu Qiansu thought for a while and pondered: "That person's name is Shinji? Is he coming to Galar?"
"I don't know." Ma Li raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Qiansu, then an inexplicable smile appeared in her light green eyes. She asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"No way."
"You're obviously telling a lot of lies, but you don't hide your feelings at a time like this."
"The only thing I won't show in front of you is my calm way of doing things. Why do you think that is?"
Ma Li lowered her eyes and stopped looking at Xu Qiansu. After brushing her hair, she put down the purple-black brush, gently stroked the pickpocket cat's back, and said, "I don't know him, and I don't have much interaction with him, so this information is just hearsay. "
Xu Qiansu sat down opposite her and said with a smile: "When I become a great trainer, no matter where you are, you will definitely hear my 'hearsay'."
"Do you want to default on the bill?" Ma Li suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him, keenly aware of the key information in Xu Qiansu's words, and asked in a calm tone.
"The essential ability to become a great trainer is to prepare for a rainy day." Xu Qiansu took out her phone and happily transferred next month's bodyguard fee directly to Ma Li.
"Where did you get this money?" Ma Li asked reluctantly.
How many bills did Xu Qiansu have in her pocket? Could she still know?
"The bonus given by the alliance official to praise our contribution? One hundred thousand yuan per person, in addition to 1,000 contribution points."
Ma Li was slightly startled and took out her phone, only to realize that the alliance had indeed sent her a message not long ago, but she didn't pay attention.
What they did was completely unworthy of such a generous reward. Obviously, the alliance officials were deliberately trying to please them, or they were optimistic about them.
"One hundred thousand yuan can cover Miss Ma Li for two and a half months." Xu Qiansu said with a smile.
"...When the elf egg hatches, it will be back to 50,000 yuan."
"It's nothing. Others may not be able to hire Miss Ma Li for a day even if they spend millions of dollars, but I only need 40,000 yuan to hire her for a month."
Ma Li put down her phone, glanced at him sideways, snorted lightly, and then asked, "Don't you want a Pokémon from Dr. Mulan?"
With Xu Qiansu's ability, Dr. Mulan would naturally not be stingy with a royal family if he really needed it.
Xu Qiansu spread her hands helplessly and said: "Firstly, I belong to Miss Mali's faction, not Shinji's faction; secondly, I have already asked Dr. Mulan for two Pokémon, and I don't have the nerve to ask for another one." .”
Ma Li was startled for a moment before she remembered the wrestling eagle-man and pumpkin spirit.
Although those two are not Xu Qiansu's Pokémon, they are actually not much different. They are stored with Dr. Mulan and will be borrowed as soon as they are needed...
Xu Qiansu pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Miss Ma Li know about Hualang Town?"
"The hometown of Emperor Dan." Ma Li thought for a moment and said, "Where do you want to go?"
She saw Xu Qiansu's separation.
"It's okay to stay in Mugan Town now. There are still five days left before winter camping...and the train connects Mugan Town, Suchuan Town and Hualang Town, so I have enough time...I want to go to Hualang Town." look."
Ma Li picked up Pickpocket Cat and Molubek, slightly brushed the broken hair from her ears, "Pack your things."
"...Don't you ask me why I want to go to Hualang Town?" Xu Qiansu was slightly startled.
Ma Li glanced at Xu Qiansu and then asked softly: "Then why do you want to go to Hualang Town?"
"I heard that there are rare Pokémon in Weimei Forest. Now that winter camping is approaching, I want to take Kirulian there to exercise. At the same time, I heard that there are some ancient ruins there, and maybe I can contribute to Sonia's research. "
Xu Qiansu didn't talk about Sister Cang and Brother Shield. After all, the legendary Pokémon was so famous. There was no evidence at the moment and it was just empty talk. Even Miss Mali might not believe it.
The most critical part is that he cannot explain the source of the information.
Whether it was Joey or Junsha, to Xu Qiansu, the person in front of him was the most special one after all.
Anyway, I don't want to lie to her.

Neither of them was the type to dawdle. After deciding on their destination, they bought the tickets directly, went back to their rooms, briefly packed up their gifts, and left the Pokémon Center under the watch of Miss Joy.
They came to the station, checked in and boarded the train.
The carriage is classically and elegantly decorated, and the air conditioner slowly blows warm air.
The two sat together, took off their scarves and placed them on the table in front of them.
Pickpocket Cat and Morube can use their scarves as nests and huddle in them to sleep.
Kirulian and the little marsupial leaned on Xu Qiansu's arms, straightened up, put their hands against the window, and looked at the snowy scene outside the window, with excited faces.
It was the first time for both of them to take a train.
After the trip to the shrine, Xu Qiansu no longer cared about letting the two little ones out.
In the eyes of interested people, he has long been exposed.
Toot toot——————
There was a slight push on the back, and the snowy scene outside the window slowly passed by. Kirulian and the small marsupial looked at the passing snowy scene without blinking.
Then, they raised their faces to look at Xu Qiansu and laughed happily.
Xu Qiansu didn't think the train was a novel experience, but she laughed along with the two little guys.
Ma Li glanced at them, then closed her eyes, leaned against the back of the chair, and unconsciously lowered her head slowly.
Xu Qiansu stretched out two fingers, pinched the corner of Ma Li's shoulder, and pulled gently. Ma Li pillowed on his shoulder and fell asleep deeply.
Xu Qiansu didn't say anything, let alone have any evil thoughts.
He tilted his head, looked at the passing snow scene outside the window with Kirulian and the little marsupial, and waited quietly for the train to arrive.
