"Hostage?" In front of the wooden house, Xia Chen turned his head and looked at Oonio, confused.
"Huh?" Oonio tilted his head in confusion and looked at Xia Chen.
Xu Qiansu took a step forward, stood between the two of them, looked at Oonio, and said with a smile: "Mr. Oonio, you have always been the gym leader I respect the most, but I have also been lucky enough to see you near Suchuan Town. Caidou, the gym leader, also asked her about your location, but she said that 'independence has always been the most important character of a trainer', so she never mentioned you... But now, thanks to Xia Chen, I can do what I want. Seeing you makes this journey worthwhile."
The above words are long, smelly, and have no nutrition. No one except Xia Chen believes them.
But Xu Qiansu said so much, but there is only one important point. He mentioned the word "independence" between Caidou's little master and hinted to Ounio that it would be better not to interfere in the competition between illustrated book holders.
Little Master Caidou only gave instructions at the beginning, and then never took care of them again, let alone any information about Ounio... In essence, it was just to train them and let them solve the problem independently. This time the problem.
Onio must have had the same guidelines.
Xu Qiansu's words were to tell Ounio not to interfere and let them do what they did.
If Xu Qiansu's side succeeds, it means that Xia Chen and the others are not as skilled as others. If Xu Qiansu's lies are seen through, it means that Xia Chen and the others are capable.
Xu Qiansu spoke in a rather cryptic way, and I don’t know if Ounior can understand it, let alone whether Ounior is willing to do this.
Oonio tilted his head. The hole in his mask was dark and empty, making Xu Qiansu unable to guess his thoughts.
Finally, Onio asked: "Oh... is that signature... real?"
Xu Qiansu was slightly startled. Even though Onio was introverted and timid, he was still a gym leader with a quick mind. He obviously understood what Xu Qiansu meant, but what he cared about was whether Xu Qiansu had lied to him just now.
Xu Qiansu was naturally not a fan of Ounio, so she was naturally lying to him just now.
But at this moment, Xu Qiansu said willingly: "Mr. Oonio is a great person. If I participate in the Champions League in February, I will definitely challenge you. If I win, please sign my name again."
Xu Qiansu still didn't answer directly.
If Miss Ma Li were here, she would give Xu Qiansu a sideways glance and then say, "He always likes to use various words to cover up his true thoughts, so don't worry about it."
But at this moment, there was only Lillie beside Xu Qiansu. She just grabbed the corner of Xu Qiansu's clothes and remained silent.
Ounio looked up at Xu Qiansu and tilted his head again. This time he just said softly: "Well, I will wait for you to challenge."
The conversation between Xu Qiansu and Ounio was a bit confusing. Xia Chen scratched the side of his face and didn't know how to interrupt.
He looked towards the wooden house and his stomach growled unsatisfactorily.
After a tiring day, it was already dusk and I was already hungry.
"Geng?" Geng Gui raised his big face with bulging cheeks, and immediately grabbed a handful of elf food and handed it to Xia Chen.
Xia Chen refused with difficulty. If possible, he would like to eat what normal humans should eat.
It was Ounio who spoke, "Come in, you can stay as long as you want."
This statement officially confirmed that Xu Qiansu's infiltration plan was successful.
Onio will not interfere with their actions.
"Okay, thank you." Xu Qiansu smiled.
Xu Qiansu raised her eyes and looked at the wooden house soaked in the sunset.
The winner of this winter camping trip is tonight.
Tonight is destined to be long.
When everyone came to the wooden house, they saw a Pokémon with dark blue skin, a strong build, red lines on its arms, and a belt-like pattern on its waist. It jumped handsomely from the eaves and stood in front of everyone.
“Cool~”
Powerful, the evolution of wrist strength.
A very classic fighting Pokémon, but the Shiny Mother is even more famous for its power.
It looked at Xu Qiansu and Lillie with a wary expression.
"Haoli, there is no need to be alert." A calm male voice sounded from above. Xu Qiansu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up, but he saw a young man about his age sitting on the eaves with a telescope.
He calmly looked down at Xu Qiansu and Lillie, then quickly looked away, raised his telescope and looked into the distance, and said: "Rather than being vigilant now, it is better to wait until they show their weakness before taking action... Anyway, there are only four initial forms. Pokémon is nothing to worry about."
Anyone who looks at Vulpix, the small marsupial, Shiro and Denmushi will think that they are not very strong.
It is natural to doubt Xu Qiansu and Lillie's identity, but this boy, you may say he is smart, but he said these words openly, you may say he is stupid, but what he said is very correct.
There is no evidence at this moment, so it is obviously more reasonable to wait quietly, be prepared, and act on chance than to pointlessly find trouble.
"Hey, Qinghe, when will your bad attitude change?" Xia Chen looked at the young man named Qinghe dissatisfied.
"Wait until you can defeat me before making demands of me." Qinghe said casually without even looking at Xia Chen, still holding up the telescope with interest.
Xia Chen's eyes twitched and he decided to ignore him and introduced Xu Qiansu: "His name is Qing He. He comes from the Sinnoh region. As you can see, he is a guy with a bad personality, but he is very strong. I have never defeated him once."
"Heh." Qinghe made a faint nasal sound without comment.
Xu Qiansu looked away, not paying attention to Qinghe's words, but silently calculating the strength of the two in her heart.
Xia Chen's Ivysaur is quite powerful, but if there is a fight, Xu Qiansu is still confident that he can win with Vulpix, and the monster in front of him has tight muscles, the pattern on his belt is clear and shiny, and his eyes are bright , the cultivation status is not bad, it is really difficult to judge whether it is stronger or weaker than Ivysaur.
However, Qinghe has not yet revealed which Yusanjia he is and what form it has evolved into.
If it is the final evolved form, with the strength of the Vulpix and the small marsupial, it will definitely be a hard fight... But at this moment, it is a bad idea to lurk and confront them head-on. It is better to hide their identity and get the Purple Book secretly.
Even if you can't steal the Purple Book, it's still good to know the location.
Xia Chen felt that Qing He was really rude, so he pushed the door open and signaled Xu Qiansu and the others to come in directly.
Xu Qiansu and Oonio stepped into the door. Only Lillie felt that it was not good to not say hello, so she folded her hands on her lower abdomen, bowed lightly to Qinghe and Haoli, and then trotted to follow Xu Qiansu. behind.
Qinghe glanced lightly at the door of the now empty wooden house, then quickly looked away and murmured to himself: "Blonde hair, blue eyes..."
Walking into the wooden house, the array inside the house was not much different from the place where Xu Qiansu lived, but there was one lava bug missing in the fireplace, and instead there were several sleeping mushrooms leaning against the wall, pretending to be potted plants.
"Kalu?" The little marsupial walked on its short legs and looked curiously at the sleepy mushrooms, then stretched out its little paw and poked them gently.
But I saw a little bit of fluorescence sprinkled from the small mushroom on the head of Sleeping Mushroom.
The little marsupial looked at the fluorescence in front of him, his big black and translucent eyes sparkling, so beautiful.
Immediately, her head tilted and she actually fell asleep. Her short legs swayed left and right. When she was about to fall to the ground, Lillie quickly ran over and picked her up.
The electric bug crawled onto the little marsupial's belly and discharged some electricity... The little marsupial didn't respond. She was a ground type, but she wasn't afraid of electricity at all.
Seeing this, the electric insect bit the little marsupial's little paw again.
Only then did the little marsupial suddenly wake up. She blinked her eyes, looked at the sleeping mushrooms, quickly jumped out of Lillie's arms, and hugged Xu Qiansu's calf.
These mushrooms are really scary.
Xu Qiansu smiled and immediately took a look at the interior displays. The living room was very deserted, which was completely different from the lively atmosphere of Xu Qiansu and the others.
"There were two other people, but they went out for something and I don't know the specific time when they will come back." Xia Chen explained.
He spoke in a rather cryptic way, apparently feeling that there was no need to tell Xu Qiansu about winter camping.
There were two more people out investigating...Xu Qiansu extracted this layer of information.
"So currently there are only four people in the wooden house, including Qinghe, myself, and Mr. Ounio... and one is from the Chengdu area..." Xia Chen continued.
"Shiori." Before he finished speaking, he saw a girl walking out of the kitchen and took over Xia Chen's words with a slight smile.
She is a girl about the same age as Xu Qiansu, wearing a blue and white kimono with a dark red coat. She has waist-length hair.
She held a plate of stir-fried vegetables, looked at Xu Qiansu and Lillie, and then smiled and said: "There have never been guests here before, welcome."
A Pokémon that was a little taller than Shiori also walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate and looked at Xu Qiansu and Lillie curiously.
A Pokémon that walks on two legs, has a beige belly, and has flames burning on the back of its neck.
Fire beast.
In the Chengdu area, there are three fire-type royal families, the final evolved form of the Fire Ball Rat.
With such strength, Xu Qiansu and Lillie would really become prisoners if they were not careful.
