February 28, modern day, Binhai City, Sinnoh region, night.
Ma Li lowered her light green eyes to look at "Cui Cui on the left, Shenao on the right". She gently turned the page, her fingertips gently rubbed the paper, and there was a hint of inquiry in her almond-shaped eyes.
If you read the book "Water on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right" as a book, it is full of details and humorous, but if you read it as a history book... then it is too delicately written, as if The author felt like he had personally visited that era.
"Team Galaxy suffered hundreds of casualties. They killed each other, and some Pokémon suddenly attacked humans..." Ma Li tapped the book with her green-white jade fingers. After a moment of silence, she muttered to herself and guessed: "Guardian Did Liya do it..."
But Ma Li didn't care about Cattleya at the moment. She took the phone and dialed Xu Qiansu's number.
"Hello, Miss Ma Li?" Xu Qiansu's voice came from behind the phone.
"Well...who do you know in the Xicui area?" Ma Li asked slowly while flipping through the book in her hand without talking to Xu Qiansu.
"Who did you meet?" Xu Qiansu obviously didn't expect Ma Li to ask him such a question, but he still answered accurately: "An eight-year-old girl named Feng, thanks to her, the perfume can be delivered Into your hands.”
Ma Li closed the book and turned to the back. She looked at the pen name of "Su Yu Feng" and was silent for a moment. Then she put it down, took the pen and paper, and wrote the word "Feng" on the paper, "Who else?"
Who else... didn't.
Although I know a lot of people, the only one I can call my friend is Kaede.
"And Soraya...huh?" Xu Qiansu's voice and Soraya's voice came from behind the phone together.
"Zoroa...does he have a regional form?" Although Ma Li didn't know much about the Celadon region, she also knew that many Pokémon had 'Celadon form'.
"Hmm... It's cuter, and its attributes have also changed to normal plus ghost type."
"Ghost type..." Ma Li wrote Zoroa's name on the paper. After a moment of silence, she wrote the word 'Su' next to 'Zoroya', and then crossed out 'Su' and used The arrow connects 'Zoroa' and 'Maple'.
"Do you have any other friends?"
"No...what's wrong? You ask this suddenly." Xu Qiansu asked curiously with a slight smile in her voice.
"Your voice sounds very tired. Although we should spare no effort to find a way to return to modern times, efficiency is the first priority, not meaningless efforts." Ma Li scolded Xu Qiansu casually, and then hung up the phone directly, appearing to Very urgent.
She put down the phone and looked at the three names on the paper with her light green almond-shaped eyes. After pondering for a moment, she picked up the phone again and dialed a series of numbers.
"Brother, help me find someone."
"..."
"It's not Xu Qiansu!" Ma Li couldn't help but stand up, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her clear and clear voice was a bit sharp.
"..."
"It does have something to do with him..." Ma Li walked to the window and looked up at the silver moon in the night sky. She hadn't trimmed it for more than three months, and her long straight black hair that had reached her waist was blown by the evening breeze without her realizing it. rise.
"..."
"Hmm, um... the shouting team? They were coming to find Xu Qiansu? They were stopped by you..." Ma Li couldn't help but rubbed her brows and sighed softly.
"..."
"Well, he has signed up for the Champions Cup, and sooner or later he will go to Spike Town to challenge you." Ma Li pressed the broken hair beside her ear with one hand, leaned against the window, and whispered,
"..."
"Well, hung up."
Ma Li hung up the phone, folded her arms, and tapped her fingertips lightly on the white shirt of good fabric. She waited for two hours, and when the time reached zero, her phone rang again.
"No such person has been found. He was last seen in the Sinnoh region..." Ma Li was silent for a while, but her delicate eyebrows showed no surprise.
She hung up the phone and pondered for a while before turning off the lights and taking a rest.
March 1st, early morning.
Ma Li tied her black hair into a neat and cute high ponytail, took her backpack, picked up Molubeke, left the room, and found Zhulan.
"Are you going to leave for a while?" Zhulan was sitting next to Cattleya, wiping her pretty face with a wet towel, but she raised her eyes and said, "I know you are thoughtful, but Celebi's whereabouts are unpredictable. , I’m looking for one more person than you, and no more than one person less than you... Instead of going out on adventures, it’s better to wait for news here... You have become more and more haggard recently, and you should still take a good rest..."
Nagging, nagging.
Although women of Zhulan's age were the most charming and caring, she would never speak so many words at once... Obviously Cattleya's situation made her emotionally unstable and difficult to calm down.
Ma Li shook her head lightly. Although she left for Xu Qiansu, she did not leave to let him return to modern times...
She didn't come here to discuss with Zhulan.
Ma Li simply said goodbye to Zhulan, then left the beach villa and Binhai City with her Pokémon.
It's okay to tell Zhulan what's in your heart, but it's not necessary.
First of all, this is just Ma Li's guess without any evidence.
Secondly, Ma Li and Zhu Lan were not familiar with each other, so they would not ask her for help.
Thirdly... Ma Li is very confident in herself and does not need to ask Zhulan for help.
Ma Li dialed Xu Qiansu's number and asked in a tone that left no room for doubt, "Where did you go in Xicui?"
"Well... Qunqing Town on the Ultramarine Coast, which is near Binhai City... I have been to all areas around Qunqing Town, but the only places I have stayed for a long time are Qunqing Town and Hidden Spring in the north." Although Xu Qiansu was confused, she said quite simply He replied and told Ma Li a lot about the current situation.
Although Ma Li was a little anxious, she still stopped and looked at the busy traffic in front of her with her delicate face, listening quietly... Although most of what Xu Qiansu said was of no use to the purpose of Ma Li's trip.
Half an hour later, the phone hung up and Ma Li left Binhai City.
Walk towards the 'hidden spring' that Xu Qiansu said.
However, after thousands of years of evolution, the terrain has continued to change, and the 'Hidden Spring' has long since disappeared and is hidden in the forest... making it difficult to find.
But Ma Li was not lacking in patience, and she chose to search all over the place.
Six days later, on March 7th, it was early morning.
Ma Li raised her eyes and looked at the sparkling lake in front of her, then slowly walked around the lake, looking around with her light green eyes.
It seems that this lake is well protected by Pokémon, and with a little luck, it still exists here after thousands of years... But it is also possible that this is just an ordinary lake, and Mali just found the wrong place.
But as long as she could find what she was looking for.
After a while, she suddenly stopped and turned her head to look at Bogaman, whose little head emerged from the lake.
"Pocha!" Pogaman was startled and quickly buried his round little head in the lake... and then he was fished out by the pickpocket cat.
After all, he is a cat, and fishing is an innate skill... although penguins are actually birds.
"Cha Cha Cha?" The pickpocket cat looked down at Bogaman and asked it in a commanding tone... She naturally understood what Mali was looking for.
Although Bogaman thought this female pickpocket cat was cute, with soft and shiny hair, it was also too fierce... She was so timidly stunned that she couldn't hold back a word.
After all, Bogaman is a Pokémon with a strong sense of self-esteem.
So Ma Li leaned down and handed it a box of elf food that water Pokémon loved to eat... Xu Qiansu also used this trick at the beginning.
So Bogaman took action and told everything he knew.
"Really?" Pickpocket Cat blinked, even she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
She raised her little face, looked at Mali, and shouted "Cha Cha Cha". Mali... she could obviously understand what her Pokémon was saying.
So she nodded slightly, left another box of elf food for Bogaman, and walked away.
Pogaman's message is simple.
There used to be a Zoroa that lived here for an unknown length of time, but she left alone a few years ago. According to her, she would go to Hezhong first, and then to Galar...
Ma Li directly bought a ticket to Galar Magan Town.
From Hidden Spring to Binhai City, and then took a plane to Mugan Town... It was already late at night after Ma Li got off the plane and set foot on the land of Galar again.
A silver moon hangs high in the sky, and the watery night shines down.
At this moment, Mugan Town can hardly see the messy appearance after the disaster, and there is a prosperous atmosphere everywhere... After all, many buildings have been renovated.
Ma Li recalled the location for a moment, then called a car and walked through the streets and alleys to an ordinary house.
The word "Mo Fei" is embedded in the front door.
Dots of warm yellow lights emerged from the window, giving off a hint of fireworks.
Haven't slept yet.
Ma Li reached out and pulled her long, silky hair, then took a few steps forward and pressed the doorbell.
Click.
The door opened slightly, and Mrs. Mo Fei appeared behind the door. When she saw Ma Li, she looked a little confused, "Miss Ma Li?"
…
"Where's Xiao Su?" Mrs. Mo Fei poured a cup of black tea for Ma Li and asked with a gentle smile.
Ma Li picked up the tea cup, but didn't drink it... She liked to add half a piece of sugar to it, but she wasn't here to reminisce with Mrs. Mo Fei, so she didn't need to make too many demands.
She was not familiar with Mrs. Mo Fei.
So she blew the hot air on the black tea and said slowly: "He has important matters to deal with in the Sinnoh region, but he left some things here, so he entrusted me to help pick them up."
"How can he feel relieved when you let a girl run so far away?" Mrs. Mo Fei frowned and said dissatisfied, "When he comes back, I will definitely teach him a lesson."
Ma Li put down the teacup and shook her head gently... She glanced at the study. The door was closed, but the light shone through the crack in the door. It was obvious that there was someone inside... It was Mo Fei, who was originally put back by Xu Qiansu because Xu Qiansu and Junsha The relationship was good, so Junsha directly used her power to bypass the judicial organs and put him under house arrest...
Ma Li looked at Mrs. Mo Fei again, and she looked very good. Compared with the first time they met, it was completely different. Just the presence of one person could bring such a big change to Mrs. Mo Fei.
"Ma Li... you look very haggard. Have you slept well recently?" When Ma Li looked at Mrs. Mo Fei, Mrs. Mo Fei also looked at her.
Ma Li was startled for a moment and couldn't help but touch her little face. After a moment of silence, she shook her head gently and stood up, "It's better to find what he lost first."
…
Squeak.
The door opened slightly, and a little light passed through the crack and shone into the dark room.
Ma Li stepped into the door and glanced around with her light green eyes... This was the room where Xu Qiansu once lived.
Obviously, this was her first time entering this room and she was somewhat unfamiliar with the unfamiliar environment.
There weren't too many things inside, such as a bed, a wardrobe, a desk... and a few photos of Pokémon hanging on the walls.
Other than that, there is no clutter.
After a while, Ma Li closed the door, turned on the light, sat down on the soft bed, raised her slender legs, reached out and gently brushed the smooth black hair beside her shoulders, her lips parted lightly, solemnly and calmly. road:
"Zoroa, come out."
There was no response... Still sleeping. Soraya obviously would not wake up due to mere noise from the outside world.
Mali's voice was clear and clear, but Soraya didn't care whether this female human's voice sounded good or not.
Because Ma Li took out her phone and clicked on the recording... the recording of her call with Xu Qiansu.
"Huh?" A sleepy, obviously sleepy, confused voice came from the closet.
Ma Li put down her phone and turned her head to look, her light green eyes showing a bit of a smile.
She guessed correctly.
March 7th, 11pm.
Xu Qiansu and Cattleya returned to the beach villa without talking.
Zhulan was still sleeping in her room... During the period when Cattleya was in coma, she couldn't eat well or sleep well. She was also extremely tired and haggard... It was rare for her to fall asleep tonight.
Stepping into the villa, Cattleya silently walked upstairs and opened Zhulan's door.
Xu Qiansu looked at her back and stood there for a while before going upstairs and silently walking into her room.
He turned on the light and opened the window. After blowing the cold air by the window for a while, he sat down on the desk, took out his Pokémon research notes, and wrote a few words on it, "Body, Kadri" Ya, one'.
Among them, '一' refers to one month, Xu Qiansu already knew.
He crossed out the word '一' and then quietly stared at 'body, Cattleya'.
If Soraya was around, he would know that Xu Qiansu often did this action... During the last month in the Xicui area, Xu Qiansu often stared at these words in a daze.
After looking at it for a while, Xu Qiansu shook his head slightly and turned over a few pages of his Pokémon research notes. Although he remembered all the details clearly, it was always comfortable to look at them like this.
"Cattleya is in a coma. The waveguide is intermittent. She may be out of breath... She survived!"
"..."
"Cattleya came to Xicui not only for me... it must also be related to the Three Dragons of the Tao... Who is it? I guess it's Kyurem."
"..."
"Cattleya controlled two members of Team Galaxy to assassinate me...but the real purpose was to put herself in a state of disintegration in front of me..."
"..."
"Cattleya...don't want to read my mind anymore..."
At that time, Xu Qiansu not only recorded various cultural landscapes, but also Cattleya...
He looked at his research notes silently, and after a while, he closed it and walked to the window again, looking at the silver moon in the night sky and blowing a gust of cold wind.
Suddenly, Ma Li called.
Xu Qiansu was slightly startled and dialed.
"Miss Mali, are you back?" He put away the mixed emotions in his heart and asked with a chuckle.
Naturally, Ma Li's departure from Binhai City could not be hidden from Xu Qiansu... The two of them knew each other so well, but even Xu Qiansu could not know the real purpose of Ma Li's departure and only thought that she had important matters to deal with.
"Go back tomorrow..." Ma Li replied, and then asked, "What about you?"
"I'll wait for you in Binhai City."
"..." Behind the phone, Ma Li was silent for a long time, and then she said: "Do you still remember the book "Cleaning Green on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right"?"
"nature."
"Go and look through it. It's good to know more about your Pokémon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ma Li hung up the phone without saying a word... for fear that Xu Qiansu would find out something.
Xu Qiansu raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions. He turned around and left from the window, and came to Miss Ma Li's room. On the desk, "Washing Green on the Left, Sinnoh on the Right" was placed flat on the table.
Xu Qiansu pulled up a chair and sat down, but saw various books and materials piled on the desk.
The fragrance of virginity lingers on the tip of my nose that has not dissipated for a long time.
He was about to look through the book, but immediately made a movement, took his hand back, took out the Poké Ball from his waist, and released all his Pokémon.
"Shanana~"
"Karuka~"
"Woo~"
"wave~"
Xu Qiansu pinched Gardevoir's soft little face, chuckled, and said, "No matter what happens later, don't panic...but remember to tell me everything that happened to me."
"Gardevoir?" Gardevoir narrowed his eyes and rubbed Xu Qiansu's hand with his small face, then glanced at Xu Qiansu doubtfully and nodded lightly.
As long as it was Xu Qiansu's words, she would mostly obey them unconditionally.
Xu Qiansu held the chair with both hands, took out her mobile phone, clicked on the stopwatch, sat a few minutes closer, then opened the book and read carefully.
The Pokémon turned their heads to look at Xu Qiansu, observing all his subtle expressions, actions, and reactions.
The stopwatch comes to twenty minutes.
In the first hundred pages... Xu Qiansu's expression didn't change much.
The stopwatch comes to thirty-five minutes.
After flipping through another two hundred pages, Xu Qiansu's expression remained unchanged.
The stopwatch comes to forty minutes.
When he reached the end... Xu Qiansu's eyes suddenly blurred slightly, as if his blood was not flowing properly after sitting for a long time, which made his head dizzy.
…
When he came back to his senses, Gardevoir's worried face appeared in front of him, and the stopwatch on the table came to forty-one minutes.
Xu Qiansu... lost his memory for a minute.
A little scarlet blood slowly flowed down from the tip of Xu Qiansu's nose and dripped on the book.
Tick tock, tick tock.
Xu Qiansu stretched out her hand and wiped it, looking at the scarlet blood, without saying a word, she just chuckled, pinched Gardevoir's face to tell her not to worry, and then looked at the book again.
This time, Xu Qiansu didn't notice any abnormality in her body...but the stopwatch came to forty-two minutes in an instant.
He lost his memory again for a minute.
Xu Qiansu stopped looking at the book. He tore off the page, sandwiched it in his Pokémon research notes, and then slowly closed the book...
That page has been written to modern times... On it, in one sentence, an event was briefly summarized.
[Superpowers are powerful and rare. The Alliance wants to mass-produce them, so they have developed a method to bestow superpowers through the combination of yin and yang...]
"Gardevoir~" Gardevoir stretched out her soft little hand and stroked Xu Qiansu's forehead, her big amber eyes full of worry... In fact, Xu Qiansu didn't have much abnormality, she was just distracted for two minutes and had another bleeding. nosebleed……
But Susu's reaction was obviously wrong.
Xu Qiansu held Gardevoir's little hand and shook her head gently, "I'm fine."
He turned his head and looked at the silver moon outside the window, silent.
Time points to zero.
March 7th has passed.
During the time he was missing, did Miss Mary often sit here and look at the moon?
No...she doesn't have so much leisure time. She must have stayed up late collecting documents that could bring Xu Qiansu back...
Xu Qiansu likes Ma Li the most in the world.
Every time I see her, I feel the urge to hug her.
Just looking at her makes me feel happy involuntarily and makes me feel happy.
Miss Dale has a crush on him, Lillie likes him, Cattleya also has some strange feelings towards him... Xu Qiansu knew it well, so he told Cattleya, 'He likes Miss Mary'.
But... not now, and maybe not in the future... either.
Xu Qiansu didn't know what Cattleya had done to him and what she had done for him... He had no memory.
Even if you guess it, the memory will be erased.
But the scarlet blood on his hands was enough for Xu Qiansu to make up his mind.
Having lost part of his memory, he doesn't love Cattleya.
So he just decided to go to Cattleya.
To love her!
