It all starts with helping Pokémon

Chapter 126 Piao Piao Ball and Ghost Girl
"Why...don't you think about it? My Geng Gui likes your Geng Gui very much."

"climb!"

No matter how Acerola said these things and offered benefits, Hoshino only had such a reply, and he came here to talk about matchmaking, what the hell.

"Gengar..."

Geng Gui hid in his arms, apparently frightened by Geng Gui's sudden actions just now, and seeing this scene, Hoshino wanted to make amends again.

Big Geng Ghost was walking behind, it was not floating, it couldn't fly at all, but it kept trying to approach again, but it was stared at by Suo Cailing and Xin Yemiao who understood the situation after waking up.

Seeing this situation, Lilia suddenly felt less scared, and now she was more worried about whether the two would suddenly fight.

Acerola continued to try to persuade, but at this time Hoshino looked around and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, did you come up from the second floor just now? I seem to see a girl."

"Huh?" Acerola was slightly taken aback, and responded: "No, I came half an hour ago, and I didn't go out halfway."

"Then what did I see?"

"Maybe it's a real ghost. This school is walking on Halloween. If you're unlucky, you might step into the spirit world~"

Acerola said in a low tone, Hoshino was quite interested, but Lillie became furious for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop it! Don't talk about it! The spirit world doesn't exist at all!"

"Eh? Eldest sis was afraid of this kind of thing. In fact, ghosts are real. Maybe they are always by your side~"

"!!!"

Seeing this, Acerola continued to whisper: "It's true, I can take you...It hurts!"

"Don't scare her like me!" Hoshino withdrew his hand from her head, and asked curiously, "Why do you always call her big sister? Are you older than her?"

"Don't you think she's tall?"

"Don't you think you're too short?"

"I don't think so, my height is just right."

"..."

Hoshino was left speechless. As far as he knew, Acerola was already an adult. Although he didn't know how old she was, this was definitely the most outrageous guy he had ever seen.

"By the way, do ghosts really exist? I heard that some students disappeared in this school before, and there were ghosts haunting them. Is it true? Do you know?"

"Of course I know, because the missing student is my friend, so I come to see her every Halloween."

"So that's how it is... um, eh?!"

Hoshino stopped in his tracks and looked over with a surprised expression on his face. The same was true for Lilia, and at the same time, his expression became even worse, because it was true!

Acerola didn't hide anything, and said directly: "This school is connected to an entrance to the spirit world. Every Halloween, there will be a large number of ghost-type Pokémon here, and there will also be some real Pokémon. The ghost of the ghost, inadvertently broke in."

"Of course, these ghosts are harmless, and they can't do anything to the living. They can only scare others with a mischievous mentality, but some ghost-type Pokémon may not be necessarily, they may be real Hurting plans to come!"

"I also came to see it every Halloween night after I heard that urban legend, but I said hello to the school, and I'm not trespassing!"

Acerola also forcefully explained to herself, but Hoshino understood.

It seems that the missing female student should have encountered some dangerous ghost-type Pokémon, but there is a problem here. He continued to ask: "Aren't you friends with the missing student? But how did I hear that, She doesn't seem to have any friends, and you came after the incident?"

"Yeah, I only became friends with her after the incident. Her soul has not left to go to the spirit world. She has been trapped in this school. I don't know the specific reason."

"I see. I didn't expect to make friends after death, and she was still trapped here. It's really pitiful. Besides, from what you said, it seems that she can only appear on Halloween?"

"That's right, I counted the time, it should be here soon~"

Listening to the serious conversation between the two of them, Liliai covered her ears and asked fearfully, "Can you stop talking...or at least keep your voice down."

But at this moment, Acerola turned around suddenly, pointed to the corridor not far away, and said happily, "She's already here!"

"!!!"

Lilia quickly squatted behind the roaring tail, using its round body to block it for herself, and Hoshino and the others also looked over there curiously.

It was found that it was a short-haired girl in a school uniform, probably about 12 years old, and she looked cute. Her body was transparent, her feet were suspended from the ground, and she seemed to have no energy at all.

And behind her, there is a fluttering ball following... Or rather, the girl is holding the thin string with a yellow heart at the end of the fluttering ball with her hand!

"..."

Hoshino frowned slightly. The truth is that this picture is a bit weird, because Pokémon like Flutterball has some very old legends.

It is said that it will use thin strings to hold children's hands and take them to another world, but it hates children who are heavy because they are too heavy for balloons to carry them up.

And now this girl is holding such a floating ball, it is hard not to remind people of these strange legends, maybe this student was taken away by the floating ball back then!

"Gengar..."

Little Geng Gui looked at the ghost curiously, his expression was a little dazed, and he always felt a little familiar, not because he knew the other party, but because he used to be, maybe he was also such a ghost?

At this time, Acerola ran over immediately, and said hello: "Long time no see, Xiao Li still has Piao Piao Qiu, do you miss me~"

"..."

The girl didn't make a sound, but just nodded.

Hoshino stepped forward and asked curiously, "What's the strange name Xiao Li?"

"I picked it for her. It sounds nice. It was already the second year when someone let me know her. She had already forgotten her name by then."

"What do you mean?"

"This one……"

The smile on Acerola's face disappeared for the first time, and then she slowly said: "Because if the souls of the dead people stay in this world forever, then their memories of life will continue to fade away."

"In the end, it will become a lost soul. It can't even remember the reincarnation of entering the spirit world. It can only wander around. Even ghost-type Pokémon can't have any interest in it."

After listening to the explanation, Hoshino took a look at his own Geng Gui, and it seemed that this was the same situation, but in the end he was lucky and attached to the doll to live a second life.

And looking at the girl holding the floating ball, Acerola sighed softly, and continued: "In the first two years, she was still able to talk, and now, she can still remember me..."

"..."

Hoshino pondered for a moment, and then said: "Understood, it means staying for another two years, I'm afraid no one will remember it, it's really troublesome, do you think so?"

"Gengar!"

Geng Gui nodded, not everyone has such good luck to live a second life, a soul can't rest in peace, even ghosts can't stand it!

"So how did she die? Was she attacked by some ghost-type Pokémon?"

Hearing this, Acerola pointed to the floating ball and responded, "That's the guy."

"???"

Hoshino directly typed a few question marks, and he really guessed it right, but why, does he feel that there is something wrong?Even outrageous!
"Because she has no friends, and this kind-hearted fluttering ball is willing to be her friend, so I want to adopt it as the initial Pokémon, but the result is too poor. In that environment, I touched it. After hitting the floater, he died on the spot."

"..."

There was a sudden silence around, and Hoshino didn't expect that he died so casually. When he died, he was hit by a car on the way back from the courier... No, it seemed just as casual.

"That's all right... so what can I do to help her leave?"

"Um... I don't know about this either. Every year, I think of a way to send myself into the spirit world. It's a pity that living people can't enter the spirit world."

"Hmm..." Hoshino fell into deep thought. After glancing at the girl and recalling the story told by Shui Lian, he immediately asked, "Wait, if there is only a soul, what about the body? What was it at the beginning?" None of them were found!"

"What?"

"It's her body! According to urban legends, she disappeared with her whole body. Could it be that her soul was unable to leave the school because her body was trapped somewhere?"

"This one……"

Acerola tilted her head, lost in thought, she had never heard of these things, and even she actually didn't know much about ghosts.

"If your guess is correct, it may be because of this reason, so as long as we find her body, we can send her away!"

"That's right!"

"Ah Piao~"

The fluttering ball shook slightly and made a sound. Hoshino looked up at it and understood what it meant. This fluttering ball also hoped that the girl could go to the spirit world instead of being trapped here forever.

"Do not worry!"

Hoshino also knew that this guy didn't mean it at the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have been by the girl's soul and stayed in this school.

"Then let's go!"

"Gengar!"

Geng Gui also got serious, this time, it also wanted to help this poor soul, so, this entrustment to them will be taken over by Wanshiwuwu!
At this moment, Hoshino turned around, and was going to call Lillie together so that she wouldn't get lost.

But it was only then that they suddenly realized that there was only darkness on the other side of the corridor, not to mention Lilia, even Howler Tail and Six Tails were gone.

"Huh? Where's her?"
