It all starts with helping Pokémon
Chapter 287 Mother-in-law's approval, the new director of the Ethereum Foundation!
Chapter 287 Mother-in-law's approval, the new director of the Ethereum Foundation!
In the No. [-] Hospital of Hauole City, Lusamine, who fainted at the Sunlun Altar, was dying and was rushed here for emergency treatment.
Outside the ICU, Liliai was waiting anxiously. She clasped her hands together, praying for her mother to get through it safely. She finally managed to get her mother back. There must be nothing wrong!
Lila was also standing not far away, with a dignified expression and a little worry. She just wanted to take Lusamine away for investigation, but she didn't expect that the other party would just die. Who would have thought of that?
Hoshino stayed beside Lillie to comfort her, then sighed softly, the injury was still too serious, although it was supported by seasoning until now, but in the end it couldn't hold up, it all depends on the strength of the hospital.
In this way, a whole night has passed. The matter of Lusamine being sent to the ICU is temporarily under lockdown. She is now a key investigation target of the international police, and her identity is also very special. It is inconvenient to report this kind of thing, so I can only temporarily press.
Fortunately, the level of medical treatment is now high, and with the assistance of professional Pokémon, the rescue was finally over in the morning. At this time, Miss Joy, who was in charge of the rescue, came out with a happy egg.
Seeing this, Liliai immediately got up and ran over. If it wasn't for Hoshino's support, she almost fell down.
When she was about to inquire about the situation, Miss Joy took off her mask and said calmly: "Every organ in her body seems to have been burned by high temperature. Although I don't know why these injuries have recovered, it is a miracle, but But this also brought out other physical problems. It should be due to overwork, and there are also serious mental problems. I guess I haven't had a good rest for a long time, and I have been supporting my body..."
"That……"
"Don't worry, the operation has been perfectly successful, don't bother me, let her rest for a while, you can also chat with her after she wakes up, the most important thing is to appease her mental state .”
Miss Joy smiled and said, although she didn't know what happened, but of course she knew Lusamine, so she also guessed that it was probably caused by the accident in the ether paradise the night before.
For such a sensitive person, she also knows that it is best not to ask about many things, and just do her best to rescue the person.
After saying this, she left directly, Liliai looked tired, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Great, now I can finally..."
Before she finished speaking, her body shook slightly, and she immediately relaxed after being highly tense, which made her body a little unbearable. Fortunately, Hoshino supported her, and then took her to a seat beside her to rest.
"You should also take a good rest. I stayed here all night, and I didn't eat the food I brought you downstairs... I'll help you and the director make breakfast. No matter what time of day, your body is the most important thing!"
"Well...thank you, thank you for your hard work."
"Thank you for our relationship...Then you just wait here for a while. If the chairman wakes up, remember to tell me."
After explaining some things, Hoshino can go back to Kabukicho with peace of mind. He was also worried all night like Lillie, and his mental state was worse than the other party. He hasn't had a rest since the day before yesterday...
He passed by the corridor, glanced at Lila who was leaning against the wall and waited all night, and also breathed a sigh of relief, then walked up and asked: "The next thing you want to do is to wait for the chairman to recover. Continue to take her away?"
"Almost, although there is no evidence that can directly convict her, it is still no problem to take her away for investigation, and the current state of Ether Paradise, it is estimated that the evidence will be obtained in a few days, so you ask me these are you wanting Excuse her?"
Lila crossed her arms and responded aloud, as if she had seen through his thoughts, she had already given the opportunity, but the law would not continue to give it.
Lusamine committed a serious crime, leaving aside the point of Ultra Beast, just buying Pokémon from Pokémon Hunters is enough to make her squat oranges, let alone buy these Pokémon. Pokémon are frozen as collectibles. Although the evidence has not been found yet, as long as they are found, they can be convicted.
"Ugh……"
Hoshino had a headache, he couldn't figure out why Lusamine had such a habit, it was outrageous, but he never told Lillie about these things.
After a moment of silence, he continued: "Don't keep anyone in the hospital under surveillance, she won't escape, let them communicate with each other..."
"..."
Lila took a deep look at him, and then responded: "Okay, for the sake of helping us so many times, but don't play tricks."
"rest assured."
Hoshino smiled lightly, assuring that nothing would happen, and then left the hospital, releasing Millerton. The motorcycle lizard is in such a state now that he can't let it run around all the time.
He reached out and touched Millerton's head, and murmured softly, "Is it really irreversible..."
"Hungry ~ Miller Miller ~"
"You don't even bark anymore!"
"Moli?"
"Yes, that's the right call!"
Seeing Millerton say "Moli" with a somewhat cold tone, Hoshino nodded in satisfaction, and then rode on.
After the motorcycle lizard turns into Millerton, it doesn’t even need a riding suit. It comes with a backrest and handlebars, and it’s bigger, allowing a few more people to sit.
"Let's go, let's go back to Kabukicho."
The other Pokémon went home first, and even Xinyemenow and Machado left, mainly because they didn't like the atmosphere here in the hospital.
When Hoshino sat still, Millerton's tail was curled up and wrapped in a flowing current, and the current on his chest also popped out like an airbag, like a pair of electric wheels. His hind legs were folded up and turned into propellers, and his hands were grasping the front wheels. Above, it looks like a real motorcycle!
"Change to driving mode?"
Hoshino was very surprised. It seems that the motorcycle lizard has indeed changed a lot, but it seems that it can no longer be transformed into a complete mode. It may be the effect of the three-in-one seasoning, which cannot fully restore its strength.
Now there are still many problems in this area, but he only has the last three-in-one seasoning plant left in his hand, it is impossible to use it for experiments, and he can only wait for the seasoning to grow from those rhizomes.
Millerton led him to run on the street, which attracted the curious attention of many passers-by. The style of Millerton's driving mode is too futuristic and technological, which is in sharp contrast with other vehicles around.
It didn't take long before he was stopped by Miss Junsha: "Stop, stop! Pull over!"
"Huh? I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"
Hoshino looked puzzled, and drove Millerton to the side of the road. Miss Junsha immediately stepped forward and said with a serious expression: "It is illegal to modify a motorcycle on the road without permission. I will impound the car. I will remember later." Go to the Traffic Management Bureau and pay the fine!"
"Uh...what?"
"As a public figure of Alola, you should set an example and take the lead. Now many young people in Alola are learning from you..."
"No, I'm not a motorcycle!"
Hoshino quickly turned Millerton back into a restricted form, and Miss Junsha realized that this turned out to be a Pokémon?Although it looks very similar to a motorcycle lizard, I have never seen this kind before, so I asked curiously, "Has your motorcycle lizard evolved?"
"Uh...you can think so!"
Hoshino didn't bother to explain, it was too troublesome for the paradox to explain, and Miss Junsha nodded after carefully looking at Millerton: "I have learned a lot today, you can go."
"Well, thank you."
Seeing him leave on Millerton, Miss Junsha felt even more incredible: "This car is so handsome, should I also subdue a motorcycle lizard?"
After a while, Hoshino finally returned to the homeless neighborhood. Riding Millerton on the road was too ostentatious, and the rate of return was so high that some people even chased him and asked him who modified this car.
"Outrageous..."
Hoshino was left speechless, and finally drove to the door of the izakaya, but the King of Stupid came out suddenly, as if he was about to say that he was back, he also noticed Millerton, and then said in surprise: " What kind of car do you have, boy?"
"My AE... Motor Lizard!"
"Nonsense, I don't know Motor Lizard, do you? Give me this car to drive."
"..."
Hoshino was too lazy to talk to it, and after greeting the Long-tailed Firefox and Cangyan Saber Ghost who also came out, he looked upstairs at the Wanshiwu.
After a day, it has basically been restored to its original state. It is basically a wooden structure, and the repair is very fast. The rest is to buy back the destroyed furniture and the broken signboard...
Millerton changed back to the restricted form, and then went back upstairs with Hoshino. Watching this scene, the King of Silence was even more surprised: "It's really a motorcycle lizard. I heard that the great metropolis used to be technologically advanced. By the way, mechanically ascended?"
"..."
Back upstairs, when he heard the movement, Xinye Miao immediately ran out and jumped on him.
"Meow~"
"Is the family okay?"
"Meow~"
The cats and cats are busy at home with some things after the recovery of the master house, trying to restore the house to its previous state, and now they are almost busy, the furniture and the like, Sai Fuhao has already spent money to find Pokémon to order up.
The seasonings have been planted back in the restored small attic by the iron burden. Geng Gui also rearranged some extra dolls for decoration, and Machado has been helping all the time, and everyone is not idle.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Hoshino touched the cat's head, and then walked in with Millerton. Although it was a bit bigger, but fortunately, it could fit in the house, but the sleeping nest needed to be changed.
"Moli..."
Millerton shook his head, expressing that he didn't want to change it, because after sleeping in that nest for several years, he became emotional.
"alright."
It didn't want to change it, and Hoshino would definitely not force it. Then he caught Geng Gui who flew out of the living room and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Gengar~"
Geng Gui responded with a smile, they all went to Nai Jiang's place to eat, Hoshino nodded, he didn't need to worry anymore, then came to the living room, looking at Marshaduo who was huddled in the corner, he was slightly taken aback.
"what happened?"
"Ma..."
Marshado pointed to the sofa, and saw that the Pope dolphin took the opportunity to sleep on it again, and when it turned over, you could see a green mass stuck to its belly, as if it had just been squashed.
"...Just pretend you didn't see it."
Hoshino chose to ignore it, but the slime jumped up instantly, and was about to curse and shout, but was sent flying by the tail of the sleeping Pope dolphin.
"..."
Hoshino couldn't bear to see the legendary Kigard repeatedly beaten by Pope's dolphin, so he walked over and grabbed the slime monster, and asked, "What are you doing, come to my house..."
"Am I having trouble sleeping around?"
"No problem, but this is my home, so go to the balcony to sleep, more sun is good for your health."
"Don't, don't... Kabukicho hasn't opened yet, I have no place to play, so I'm going to sleep here."
"Oh, then go on to sleep and be honest and don't touch my things."
Hoshino put it back on the Pope dolphin, and didn't bother to care what the other party thought. He still had things to do now. After walking around the house, he took out the equipment from his bag and went to the kitchen to cook.
The ooze monster cursed and looked away, jumped a few times on the belly of the Pope dolphin's Q bomb, using it as a spring bed, but in the next second, it was crushed by the Pope dolphin who turned over again...
With the prepared breakfast, Hoshino rode Millerton out again, and soon arrived at the hospital, and received a message from Lillie on the way.
Lusamine had already woken up, and was transferred to a separate ward. Although Lila seemed to abide by the agreement not to send anyone to monitor her, Hoshino still asked a friend for help just to be on the safe side...
Walking into the ward, Lusamine, who was wearing a hospital gown on the hospital bed, was smiling for some reason, as if she was very happy, and Lillie was sitting by the bed, also smiling.
“Have breakfast~”
"Ah."
Li Liai took the nutritious porridge specially cooked by Hoshino, and then fed it to her mother little by little. After tasting the taste, Lusamine said softly: "The cooking skills are very good..."
"I rely on me to support the whole family. If you can't cook well, no one will eat it."
"I can tell."
After eating breakfast, Lusamine's complexion improved obviously, and when Lillie tidied up and was about to take out her share, she suddenly smiled and said: "Lillie, you go out for a while, I There are some things I need to talk to Hoshino alone."
"okay."
Lilia glanced at Hoshino, then nodded, and took her breakfast to go outside the ward. After the door closed for a few seconds, the smile on Lusamine's face gradually disappeared, and she said, "Sit down, sit down." Right next to the bed."
"I think it's better to stand still."
"You're quite a stranger..."
"It just didn't feel right."
"Ah……"
Lusamine chuckled lightly, and then asked, "You and Lillie are already dating, right?"
"Yes, yesterday morning."
Hoshino admitted it directly this time, and then asked, "Does the chairman disagree with me being with her?"
"What do you say!"
Lusamine showed a sneer, but did not continue the topic, but asked, "Is that international policeman still outside?"
"No, she promised me that she would not send anyone to monitor her until the chairman was discharged from the hospital."
"It's just a verbal promise? You are really a child, you can believe such words..."
"Don't worry, any monitoring or eavesdropping equipment here can't record our conversation, and I won't let them know."
Hoshino replied in a calm tone, he had already asked Peony to take over the hospital's network on the way, and even a monitor placed alone in this room would be discovered.
Seeing that he came prepared, Lusamine nodded with some satisfaction, and continued: "They have been investigating some things about me..."
"I know, now they are looking for evidence to convict you. Once the evidence is convincing and all kinds of crimes are established, you may..."
Hoshino didn't finish speaking, but Lusamine knew it very well. After a short silence, she asked softly, "You didn't tell Lillie about this, did you?"
"No."
"That's good……"
Seeing Lusamine's relieved look, Hoshino asked calmly, "Don't you want to save it?"
"You still want to exonerate me?"
"No, I just don't want to see Lilia cry anymore, and as a mother, you don't want your child to cry for you, do you?"
"..."
Lusamine didn't respond immediately, but after a brief silence, she asked, "Speaking of your parents? It seems that you haven't heard of them."
"No, I grew up in an orphanage."
"yes……"
Lusamine nodded lightly, and then responded: "You're right... You can't make Lilia cry for me, I still have an agreement with her, at least we must complete this agreement now!"
She already had a plan in her mind, and then asked, "So what's your plan?"
"Put the plan aside. Before that, I still have a question to ask the chairman."
"Just ask."
"Before Lillie told me that she saw a bunch of frozen Pokémon under the Ether Paradise as collectibles. Is there such a thing?"
"There is indeed..."
"This is the most important question. What's the point of doing this?"
"I like cute Pokémon and treat them as my children. After losing Moen, I want to tie everything around me, especially my family, and I want to give them all my love..."
Lusamine paused for a moment, and then said in a bitter tone: "The purpose of collecting these Pokémon is to make up for the emptiness that my excess love can't vent after Lillie went to school, but Lillie is right, That is not love, but domination, but I simply mistakenly thought that was love..."
"This……"
Hoshino couldn't help shivering after hearing this, but then Lusamine smiled and said: "Don't worry, they are still alive, I have been feeding them all the time... As for why they are frozen as collections, that's also true. I hope they will always remain cute as children and not grow up."
"..."
"But it's all over, so you want to rescue all these Pokémon?"
"That's right, these Pokémon are the evidence to convict you, Chairman, and I also want to help them regain their freedom."
"Well, go ahead and do it, and I'll tell you where they are."
"Is that agreed?"
"Otherwise? I'm worried that you will betray me?"
Lusamine gave him a playful look, but then she restored her soft smile and said, "I believe in you, because Lillie also believes in you."
"Trust too much..."
Hoshino still felt that he couldn't understand the other party, but this time there was no problem. Now the Ether Paradise is still in chaos, and the international police are not convenient to move. He can take advantage of the chaos and release all the Pokémon.
As for what to do in the future, he has already thought about it, and he will leave it to Wanshiwu to help. If you want to go home, you will send it back no matter where your home is. If you don’t want to go home, you can hand it over to the Ether Foundation. , after all, that's what it's for.
After sorting out the information, he thought of one more thing, so he asked, "Chairman, can you explain what happened to Xiao Xingyun?"
"no problem."
Lusamine didn't care anymore, so she told her plan along the way.
From the earliest creation of attributes for the convenience of catching the ultimate beast: space, to the accidental capture of the injured Lunala a few years ago, and learned about the child of the star and some things in the ultimate space.
It's a pity that Lunala couldn't take her to the ultimate space, so she collected some legends and stories, and found another star child that was hidden by the ancient Alola people!
"Another one?"
Hoshino was a little surprised, Lusamine nodded, and continued to explain that in the past, the Sun Moon Beast actually gave birth to two Star Children and entrusted them to the royal family of the Alola Kingdom to take care of them.
But after all, Lunala ruled Alola for a period of time in the past, which made them fear the power of the Starchild and wanted to possess it, and then there was a civil strife in the royal family.
The final result is that some people escaped with a star child, and the remaining part kept their promise and raised the other star child, and finally evolved into Lunala and left Alola.
However, this civil strife accelerated the disintegration of the kingdom. It didn't take long for the Alola Kingdom to disintegrate completely, leaving only a few descendants, and because of these things, many things were not preserved.
As for the people who escaped with the other Star Child, since the Sun and Moon Flute was guarded, they could only focus on the power left by the Sun and Moon Beast on the Sun Wheel Altar for safety.
It's a pity that these people failed to defeat the overlord of the guards, and their hopes were shattered. The remaining people were chased and killed by the people of the kingdom, so they could only seal the child of the star in the reverse world, so that future generations can find it.
Lusamine obtained this part of the legendary story by accident, and successfully brought Nebula out of the reverse world, preparing to be trained as Solgaleo to take herself to the ultimate space.
But a few years ago, Necrozma first appeared in the sky above the Ether Paradise. The powerful strength of the other party made her change her mind, and she also knew the existence of the glorious God from the legend.
A few months ago, she took advantage of the fluctuations in the ultimate space and used the ultimate beast to communicate several times. Finally, she got a response from Necrozma and successfully reached a cooperation with the other party...
That's the whole story, Hoshino didn't expect Xiao Xingyun to be the child of the star, seems to be related to Lunala or sibling?
"It's a bit messy...let me sort it out."
Seeing his expression, Lusamine smiled softly and said, "That's about it. Is there anything else you want to ask? Before I'm captured, as long as you want to ask, I can answer whatever I know. "
"I have nothing to ask for now..."
Hoshino was going to leave now, and he would come back sooner after finishing the work. Then he looked at the hospital bed and said, "The chairman should take a good rest recently, and spend more time chatting with Lilia, and there is..."
Before she finished speaking, Lusamine frowned slightly, and said in a reproachful tone: "You still call me the director? Should I change my mind?"
"What?"
"From now on, just call me the same as Lillie, you can just call me mother or mother~"
"..."
Seeing Lusamine say this with a bit of playfulness, Hoshino's brain froze for a few seconds before he finally realized that the other party agreed with him and Lillie!
"Uh...this..."
"Aren't you used to it? Take your time, but I hope you won't do something unfriendly to you just because I wanted to stop you, and then you will do something to Lillie because of it, and what was wrong with you at the beginning?" about... sorry..."
After speaking, Lusamine seemed to get up to apologize, but was stopped by Hoshino, and then he said with a smile: "How long has passed, don't worry about it, you should take a good rest now, I will take care of you Lillie's."
Being supported by him and lying down again, Lusamine smiled very gratified, and said softly: "Meeting you may be the luckiest thing in Lilia's life, thank you for taking care of her for so long... ..."
"Well, meeting her is also the greatest luck for me~"
……
After coming out of the ward, Lilia had already finished breakfast with the Howling Tails, and was waiting by the side. Seeing him smiling, she asked curiously, "What did you talk about with your mother? You're so happy..."
"I didn't talk about anything. If you want to know, you can ask her yourself."
Hoshino responded with a smile, and then said that he still had something to do and needed to leave. Lilia suddenly showed a resentful expression, and then regained his composure, saying: "Be careful on the road, I will continue to take care of my mother here to rest."
"Ah."
Watching Hoshino leave, Lillie walked into the ward again, but at this moment Lusamine suddenly called out softly: "Lillie, lend me your phone."
"OK, all right."
Hoshino didn't know what was going on in the back of the ward, but at the corner to the elevator, he ran into an acquaintance who was hiding here with a dog.
"What are you doing? Don't you go in and take a look? Your mother and sister are both inside."
"Do you care what I do?"
Gladion responded coldly with a straight face, then turned around and took the elevator to leave.
Watching the elevator door close, Hoshino shook his head. It could be seen that the other party really wanted to visit him in the ward, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
"By the way... I haven't gotten into the elevator yet!"
Moments later, after leaving the hospital, Gladion was nowhere to be seen, and Hoshino didn't care about him, so he rode Millerton directly to the port area, under the banner of participating in the rescue, and easily got on the boat to the etheric paradise .
Because of the accident over there, tourists are forbidden to go there for the past two days, but for him in Alola Star Zhongxing Zhongxing, just brushing his face is enough.
After coming to the Ether Paradise, he greeted some trainers who participated in the rescue, and then he planned to follow the location provided by Lusamine to find the hidden collection room.
But when he took the elevator to the first floor, Bi Ke suddenly ran over with someone and shouted: "Chairman, you are finally back!"
"What the hell?" Hoshino turned around and looked around, wondering, "Where is the chairman?"
"Actually, the chairman just called to tell us that she is temporarily unable to come forward for some reasons, and she also plans to resign from the position of chairman and let you be the new chairman."
Bi Ke smiled and explained, for her, this is Lusamine's test for her son-in-law, and now that this kind of accident happened in the Ether Paradise, it is a very good time for the test!
But for Hoshino, this is being sold by his mother-in-law. The other party does not want to drag the Ether Foundation into the water, so as long as he resigns to recuperate and disappear for a few days, then no one will continue to pay attention to her, but focus on himself .
After all, it is very meaningful to suddenly rise to the position at such a critical moment, and he is also a public figure of Alola himself, known to many people, so attracting popularity is the best.
"This is really..."
Hoshino didn't know what to say, but since this is the case, then he should be it, anyway, Lusamine was using him as a shield, and then dragged it until she was discharged from the hospital to solve the following matters.
Looking at Bi Ke and the others in front of him, he thought for a while and said, "Continue to participate in the rescue first. Rescuing wild Pokémon itself is the responsibility of our Ethereum Foundation. There may be a batch of Pokémon later, and you are also responsible." Take care of it, as for the others, let’s talk about it later, I still have something to do.”
"Roger that!"
Bi Ke immediately led the others into action, but Zaobo, who was hiding in the dark, stared at Hoshino, almost biting off his handkerchief.
He has worked so hard for so many years to climb to the position of branch chief, but someone in front of him directly ascended to the sky in one step. Is this the difference between people...
After sending these people away, Hoshino immediately went to the back of the mansion. After some groping, he found the entrance in Lusamine's room, and finally came to the collection room.
"It's really cold..."
Feeling the chill, he looked at the frozen Pokémon around him. It was really hard to accept at first glance, but knowing that these were still alive, they were just frozen in a sleep state, and they could be alive and kicking when they were unfrozen. Still acceptable.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to take action, Lila's voice suddenly came from behind...
"Hold on! Hands up!"
"Does Tiaozi like to follow you so much?"
Hoshino raised his hands, unexpectedly he was still being followed. He turned around, looked at Lila who was alone, and asked calmly, "Are you alone? Didn't you bring any men?"
"I'm enough alone."
Lila still had that glamorous attitude. While staring at him, she also looked around from the corner of her eye, and then said, "Thank you for leading me to find the evidence. I didn't expect people to be so cruel."
"The white and fat ones I raised are still alive, and I will be taken care of by the Ether Foundation from now on, how good it is."
Seeing Hoshino's words, she sighed softly and asked, "Are you really going to choose to excuse Lusamine? You know the seriousness of these things! If you choose to excuse, you will be considered an accomplice!"
"I'm not that amazing..."
Hoshino slowly put his hand down, and said slowly, "I just want my beloved girl to be accompanied by her mother, that's all!"
After finishing the words, he took out the elf ball and threw it, and Millerton appeared instantly. Before Lila had time to take out the elf ball, he was thrown to the ground by him.
"This strange Pokémon..."
Lila couldn't break free at all, and then Hoshino's lazy voice continued to sound: "Sorry, can you pretend that you didn't see what happened here?"
"..."
Listening to the voice, Lila, who seemed to be very angry at first, suddenly showed a soft smile, and was pressed to the ground like this, laughing: "If I really came to find evidence, I wouldn't come here alone. I just want to Look at your determination, for the girl you love... that's great."
"..."
Hoshino waved his hand, signaling Millerton to let him go, Lila stood up, rubbed his shoulders, and then said with a smile: "Then I'll pretend I didn't see it, you solved the Alola incident, and let me finally An exchange that can go home during the year-end holiday!"
"Don't die suddenly."
"Don't worry, I will take at least half a year's vacation this time."
Lila turned around and waved her hand. Before leaving, she looked back and smiled and said, "I always feel that I will often see you on the news in the future. Be good~"
"Don't worry!"
Watching Lila leave, Hoshino shook his head, feeling that there were indeed a lot of strange people around him, then he looked at Millerton who was walking back, and asked, "Is it cold here?"
"Moli~"
Millerton shook his head. After becoming like this, he was not afraid of the cold any more. He just felt a little hungry and wanted to eat a sandwich.
"Okay, I'll make it for you when I get back, but there is only one seasoning left, so I can't add seasoning."
"Moli~"
Then Hoshino began to defrost the collection room. There was a key to defrost the switch, which was quite fast. Soon a Pikachu popsicle turned back into Pikachu, but he was still dreaming and did not wake up.
Then the other Pokémon also thawed out, but they were still fast asleep. Luckily, Lusamine also explained that there is a mechanism here that can activate the elevator and go directly to the mansion above.
After a while, the elevator went up to the backyard of the mansion, and finally the first Pikachu that had been unfrozen woke up and looked around in a daze.
It seemed that it hadn't figured out the situation, and after looking around for a week, it burst into tears.
"What's wrong? Are you hungry?"
Hoshino hurried over to check the situation, but was stunned to the ground by [-] volts, and then other Pokémon around woke up one after another, and almost all started crying at the same time.
"what's the situation?"
He couldn't figure it out, and couldn't comfort him at all. Fortunately, at this moment, Lilia suddenly made a video call, but it was Lusamine on the other side.
"Oh, it looks like you've already thawed them out, aren't these babies so cute, they'll cry when I'm not around~"
"What's the matter?"
"I've said it all, I've always taken care of them as my own children. After all, they are babies when I bring them back, and they all regard me as the closest person, plus the reason why I freeze them so that they don't grow up..."
"Kindergarten, right?"
Hoshino finally understood that these Pokémon had Lusamine as their mother, and they had a very deep relationship, none of them would be willing to leave here.
But now he is the one who has a headache. Who can resist throwing you into a kindergarten where all the children are crying?At this moment, Lusamine smiled and said, "I'll trouble you to take care of it."
"Hey……"
Before she finished speaking, the phone hung up, and Liliai took back her mobile phone with a worried expression on her face: "Would this be too much..."
After hearing this, Lusamine didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Let him be more proficient in taking care of children, so that he won't marry you and have children in the future, and he won't even be able to take care of children!"
"Marriage... It's too early to say this, we just dated... and..."
Lilia's cheeks flushed slightly, she was a little shy and almost speechless, and she was still taken care of by Hoshino, he was too good at taking care of children.
Seeing her daughter's appearance, Lusamine stretched out her hand to gently stroke her face, and asked, "Do you think I'll go shopping with you someday?"
"After your mother recovers, as long as you have time, any day is fine!"
"Okay~"
……
In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and the international police did not find any evidence, and then news spread that Hoshino was appointed as the new director of the Ethereum Foundation.
Regardless of whether it is in the Alola region or other regions, almost everyone who pays attention to this aspect is greatly surprised.
In the largest company in a region, it's okay to change the leader if he wants to, but the identity of this newcomer is too special.
But Hoshino didn't bother to care about this, he was almost driven crazy by this group of kindergartens, and he brought the Wanshiwu family to play with them, and Pikachu even got a few of the new leaves' hairs, so he was able to hold back.
Fortunately, another week passed, and Lusamine finally recovered and was discharged from the hospital. However, she did not immediately return to the Ether Paradise, which was being repaired. Instead, she took her daughter to the commercial street to go shopping, buy clothes and eat.
They had a good time, but Hoshino was still being tortured in the Ether Paradise. Fortunately, he brought a bunch of members of the Ether Foundation to be tortured together.
A few days later, after receiving news from the Space Research Institute that the fluctuations in the ultimate space gradually stabilized, the international police finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lila was also preparing to leave, and so were the others, including Gladion. He had gone through so much, and after Lusamine's matter was settled, he had decided to continue on the road of international police.
He didn't go back to Ether Paradise, nor did he visit his mother and sister, but on the day when he was about to leave with his colleagues in the port area of Hauole City, Lusamine came here in person...
Seeing her appearing at the port, Gladion still had a straight face and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Come see you off."
"..."
Seeing that he didn't respond, Lusamine lowered her head reproachfully, and said, "I'm sorry, I owe you too much..."
"At this point, it's meaningless to say these things. If you feel that you owe me, then just stay with Lilia and take my share..."
After saying this calmly, Gladion turned around and boarded the boat with his colleagues. Lusamine stood where she was, in the setting sun, like a mother who watched her child leave home to go on a adventure.
Seeing the boat slowly start to move, she smiled, waved her hand towards that side, and shouted: "Remember to pay attention to safety when working outside, and remember to call home if you are lonely. I believe that one day in the future, our family... ...will definitely be reunited!"
Hearing his mother's voice, Gladion squatted on the deck, gently stroking the hair of the Silver Companion Beast, and after a long silence, a smile appeared on his face.
On the other side of the port, Lillie and Hoshino stood together, watching this scene with a smile.
After waiting for the boat to gradually disappear at the end of the dusk, looking at Lusamine who was still staying in place, Lillie smiled and waved her hands and shouted: "Let's go home together, my lord mother~"
"Well, here we come!"
(End of this volume)
(End of this chapter)
In the No. [-] Hospital of Hauole City, Lusamine, who fainted at the Sunlun Altar, was dying and was rushed here for emergency treatment.
Outside the ICU, Liliai was waiting anxiously. She clasped her hands together, praying for her mother to get through it safely. She finally managed to get her mother back. There must be nothing wrong!
Lila was also standing not far away, with a dignified expression and a little worry. She just wanted to take Lusamine away for investigation, but she didn't expect that the other party would just die. Who would have thought of that?
Hoshino stayed beside Lillie to comfort her, then sighed softly, the injury was still too serious, although it was supported by seasoning until now, but in the end it couldn't hold up, it all depends on the strength of the hospital.
In this way, a whole night has passed. The matter of Lusamine being sent to the ICU is temporarily under lockdown. She is now a key investigation target of the international police, and her identity is also very special. It is inconvenient to report this kind of thing, so I can only temporarily press.
Fortunately, the level of medical treatment is now high, and with the assistance of professional Pokémon, the rescue was finally over in the morning. At this time, Miss Joy, who was in charge of the rescue, came out with a happy egg.
Seeing this, Liliai immediately got up and ran over. If it wasn't for Hoshino's support, she almost fell down.
When she was about to inquire about the situation, Miss Joy took off her mask and said calmly: "Every organ in her body seems to have been burned by high temperature. Although I don't know why these injuries have recovered, it is a miracle, but But this also brought out other physical problems. It should be due to overwork, and there are also serious mental problems. I guess I haven't had a good rest for a long time, and I have been supporting my body..."
"That……"
"Don't worry, the operation has been perfectly successful, don't bother me, let her rest for a while, you can also chat with her after she wakes up, the most important thing is to appease her mental state .”
Miss Joy smiled and said, although she didn't know what happened, but of course she knew Lusamine, so she also guessed that it was probably caused by the accident in the ether paradise the night before.
For such a sensitive person, she also knows that it is best not to ask about many things, and just do her best to rescue the person.
After saying this, she left directly, Liliai looked tired, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Great, now I can finally..."
Before she finished speaking, her body shook slightly, and she immediately relaxed after being highly tense, which made her body a little unbearable. Fortunately, Hoshino supported her, and then took her to a seat beside her to rest.
"You should also take a good rest. I stayed here all night, and I didn't eat the food I brought you downstairs... I'll help you and the director make breakfast. No matter what time of day, your body is the most important thing!"
"Well...thank you, thank you for your hard work."
"Thank you for our relationship...Then you just wait here for a while. If the chairman wakes up, remember to tell me."
After explaining some things, Hoshino can go back to Kabukicho with peace of mind. He was also worried all night like Lillie, and his mental state was worse than the other party. He hasn't had a rest since the day before yesterday...
He passed by the corridor, glanced at Lila who was leaning against the wall and waited all night, and also breathed a sigh of relief, then walked up and asked: "The next thing you want to do is to wait for the chairman to recover. Continue to take her away?"
"Almost, although there is no evidence that can directly convict her, it is still no problem to take her away for investigation, and the current state of Ether Paradise, it is estimated that the evidence will be obtained in a few days, so you ask me these are you wanting Excuse her?"
Lila crossed her arms and responded aloud, as if she had seen through his thoughts, she had already given the opportunity, but the law would not continue to give it.
Lusamine committed a serious crime, leaving aside the point of Ultra Beast, just buying Pokémon from Pokémon Hunters is enough to make her squat oranges, let alone buy these Pokémon. Pokémon are frozen as collectibles. Although the evidence has not been found yet, as long as they are found, they can be convicted.
"Ugh……"
Hoshino had a headache, he couldn't figure out why Lusamine had such a habit, it was outrageous, but he never told Lillie about these things.
After a moment of silence, he continued: "Don't keep anyone in the hospital under surveillance, she won't escape, let them communicate with each other..."
"..."
Lila took a deep look at him, and then responded: "Okay, for the sake of helping us so many times, but don't play tricks."
"rest assured."
Hoshino smiled lightly, assuring that nothing would happen, and then left the hospital, releasing Millerton. The motorcycle lizard is in such a state now that he can't let it run around all the time.
He reached out and touched Millerton's head, and murmured softly, "Is it really irreversible..."
"Hungry ~ Miller Miller ~"
"You don't even bark anymore!"
"Moli?"
"Yes, that's the right call!"
Seeing Millerton say "Moli" with a somewhat cold tone, Hoshino nodded in satisfaction, and then rode on.
After the motorcycle lizard turns into Millerton, it doesn’t even need a riding suit. It comes with a backrest and handlebars, and it’s bigger, allowing a few more people to sit.
"Let's go, let's go back to Kabukicho."
The other Pokémon went home first, and even Xinyemenow and Machado left, mainly because they didn't like the atmosphere here in the hospital.
When Hoshino sat still, Millerton's tail was curled up and wrapped in a flowing current, and the current on his chest also popped out like an airbag, like a pair of electric wheels. His hind legs were folded up and turned into propellers, and his hands were grasping the front wheels. Above, it looks like a real motorcycle!
"Change to driving mode?"
Hoshino was very surprised. It seems that the motorcycle lizard has indeed changed a lot, but it seems that it can no longer be transformed into a complete mode. It may be the effect of the three-in-one seasoning, which cannot fully restore its strength.
Now there are still many problems in this area, but he only has the last three-in-one seasoning plant left in his hand, it is impossible to use it for experiments, and he can only wait for the seasoning to grow from those rhizomes.
Millerton led him to run on the street, which attracted the curious attention of many passers-by. The style of Millerton's driving mode is too futuristic and technological, which is in sharp contrast with other vehicles around.
It didn't take long before he was stopped by Miss Junsha: "Stop, stop! Pull over!"
"Huh? I didn't do anything wrong, did I?"
Hoshino looked puzzled, and drove Millerton to the side of the road. Miss Junsha immediately stepped forward and said with a serious expression: "It is illegal to modify a motorcycle on the road without permission. I will impound the car. I will remember later." Go to the Traffic Management Bureau and pay the fine!"
"Uh...what?"
"As a public figure of Alola, you should set an example and take the lead. Now many young people in Alola are learning from you..."
"No, I'm not a motorcycle!"
Hoshino quickly turned Millerton back into a restricted form, and Miss Junsha realized that this turned out to be a Pokémon?Although it looks very similar to a motorcycle lizard, I have never seen this kind before, so I asked curiously, "Has your motorcycle lizard evolved?"
"Uh...you can think so!"
Hoshino didn't bother to explain, it was too troublesome for the paradox to explain, and Miss Junsha nodded after carefully looking at Millerton: "I have learned a lot today, you can go."
"Well, thank you."
Seeing him leave on Millerton, Miss Junsha felt even more incredible: "This car is so handsome, should I also subdue a motorcycle lizard?"
After a while, Hoshino finally returned to the homeless neighborhood. Riding Millerton on the road was too ostentatious, and the rate of return was so high that some people even chased him and asked him who modified this car.
"Outrageous..."
Hoshino was left speechless, and finally drove to the door of the izakaya, but the King of Stupid came out suddenly, as if he was about to say that he was back, he also noticed Millerton, and then said in surprise: " What kind of car do you have, boy?"
"My AE... Motor Lizard!"
"Nonsense, I don't know Motor Lizard, do you? Give me this car to drive."
"..."
Hoshino was too lazy to talk to it, and after greeting the Long-tailed Firefox and Cangyan Saber Ghost who also came out, he looked upstairs at the Wanshiwu.
After a day, it has basically been restored to its original state. It is basically a wooden structure, and the repair is very fast. The rest is to buy back the destroyed furniture and the broken signboard...
Millerton changed back to the restricted form, and then went back upstairs with Hoshino. Watching this scene, the King of Silence was even more surprised: "It's really a motorcycle lizard. I heard that the great metropolis used to be technologically advanced. By the way, mechanically ascended?"
"..."
Back upstairs, when he heard the movement, Xinye Miao immediately ran out and jumped on him.
"Meow~"
"Is the family okay?"
"Meow~"
The cats and cats are busy at home with some things after the recovery of the master house, trying to restore the house to its previous state, and now they are almost busy, the furniture and the like, Sai Fuhao has already spent money to find Pokémon to order up.
The seasonings have been planted back in the restored small attic by the iron burden. Geng Gui also rearranged some extra dolls for decoration, and Machado has been helping all the time, and everyone is not idle.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Hoshino touched the cat's head, and then walked in with Millerton. Although it was a bit bigger, but fortunately, it could fit in the house, but the sleeping nest needed to be changed.
"Moli..."
Millerton shook his head, expressing that he didn't want to change it, because after sleeping in that nest for several years, he became emotional.
"alright."
It didn't want to change it, and Hoshino would definitely not force it. Then he caught Geng Gui who flew out of the living room and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Gengar~"
Geng Gui responded with a smile, they all went to Nai Jiang's place to eat, Hoshino nodded, he didn't need to worry anymore, then came to the living room, looking at Marshaduo who was huddled in the corner, he was slightly taken aback.
"what happened?"
"Ma..."
Marshado pointed to the sofa, and saw that the Pope dolphin took the opportunity to sleep on it again, and when it turned over, you could see a green mass stuck to its belly, as if it had just been squashed.
"...Just pretend you didn't see it."
Hoshino chose to ignore it, but the slime jumped up instantly, and was about to curse and shout, but was sent flying by the tail of the sleeping Pope dolphin.
"..."
Hoshino couldn't bear to see the legendary Kigard repeatedly beaten by Pope's dolphin, so he walked over and grabbed the slime monster, and asked, "What are you doing, come to my house..."
"Am I having trouble sleeping around?"
"No problem, but this is my home, so go to the balcony to sleep, more sun is good for your health."
"Don't, don't... Kabukicho hasn't opened yet, I have no place to play, so I'm going to sleep here."
"Oh, then go on to sleep and be honest and don't touch my things."
Hoshino put it back on the Pope dolphin, and didn't bother to care what the other party thought. He still had things to do now. After walking around the house, he took out the equipment from his bag and went to the kitchen to cook.
The ooze monster cursed and looked away, jumped a few times on the belly of the Pope dolphin's Q bomb, using it as a spring bed, but in the next second, it was crushed by the Pope dolphin who turned over again...
With the prepared breakfast, Hoshino rode Millerton out again, and soon arrived at the hospital, and received a message from Lillie on the way.
Lusamine had already woken up, and was transferred to a separate ward. Although Lila seemed to abide by the agreement not to send anyone to monitor her, Hoshino still asked a friend for help just to be on the safe side...
Walking into the ward, Lusamine, who was wearing a hospital gown on the hospital bed, was smiling for some reason, as if she was very happy, and Lillie was sitting by the bed, also smiling.
“Have breakfast~”
"Ah."
Li Liai took the nutritious porridge specially cooked by Hoshino, and then fed it to her mother little by little. After tasting the taste, Lusamine said softly: "The cooking skills are very good..."
"I rely on me to support the whole family. If you can't cook well, no one will eat it."
"I can tell."
After eating breakfast, Lusamine's complexion improved obviously, and when Lillie tidied up and was about to take out her share, she suddenly smiled and said: "Lillie, you go out for a while, I There are some things I need to talk to Hoshino alone."
"okay."
Lilia glanced at Hoshino, then nodded, and took her breakfast to go outside the ward. After the door closed for a few seconds, the smile on Lusamine's face gradually disappeared, and she said, "Sit down, sit down." Right next to the bed."
"I think it's better to stand still."
"You're quite a stranger..."
"It just didn't feel right."
"Ah……"
Lusamine chuckled lightly, and then asked, "You and Lillie are already dating, right?"
"Yes, yesterday morning."
Hoshino admitted it directly this time, and then asked, "Does the chairman disagree with me being with her?"
"What do you say!"
Lusamine showed a sneer, but did not continue the topic, but asked, "Is that international policeman still outside?"
"No, she promised me that she would not send anyone to monitor her until the chairman was discharged from the hospital."
"It's just a verbal promise? You are really a child, you can believe such words..."
"Don't worry, any monitoring or eavesdropping equipment here can't record our conversation, and I won't let them know."
Hoshino replied in a calm tone, he had already asked Peony to take over the hospital's network on the way, and even a monitor placed alone in this room would be discovered.
Seeing that he came prepared, Lusamine nodded with some satisfaction, and continued: "They have been investigating some things about me..."
"I know, now they are looking for evidence to convict you. Once the evidence is convincing and all kinds of crimes are established, you may..."
Hoshino didn't finish speaking, but Lusamine knew it very well. After a short silence, she asked softly, "You didn't tell Lillie about this, did you?"
"No."
"That's good……"
Seeing Lusamine's relieved look, Hoshino asked calmly, "Don't you want to save it?"
"You still want to exonerate me?"
"No, I just don't want to see Lilia cry anymore, and as a mother, you don't want your child to cry for you, do you?"
"..."
Lusamine didn't respond immediately, but after a brief silence, she asked, "Speaking of your parents? It seems that you haven't heard of them."
"No, I grew up in an orphanage."
"yes……"
Lusamine nodded lightly, and then responded: "You're right... You can't make Lilia cry for me, I still have an agreement with her, at least we must complete this agreement now!"
She already had a plan in her mind, and then asked, "So what's your plan?"
"Put the plan aside. Before that, I still have a question to ask the chairman."
"Just ask."
"Before Lillie told me that she saw a bunch of frozen Pokémon under the Ether Paradise as collectibles. Is there such a thing?"
"There is indeed..."
"This is the most important question. What's the point of doing this?"
"I like cute Pokémon and treat them as my children. After losing Moen, I want to tie everything around me, especially my family, and I want to give them all my love..."
Lusamine paused for a moment, and then said in a bitter tone: "The purpose of collecting these Pokémon is to make up for the emptiness that my excess love can't vent after Lillie went to school, but Lillie is right, That is not love, but domination, but I simply mistakenly thought that was love..."
"This……"
Hoshino couldn't help shivering after hearing this, but then Lusamine smiled and said: "Don't worry, they are still alive, I have been feeding them all the time... As for why they are frozen as collections, that's also true. I hope they will always remain cute as children and not grow up."
"..."
"But it's all over, so you want to rescue all these Pokémon?"
"That's right, these Pokémon are the evidence to convict you, Chairman, and I also want to help them regain their freedom."
"Well, go ahead and do it, and I'll tell you where they are."
"Is that agreed?"
"Otherwise? I'm worried that you will betray me?"
Lusamine gave him a playful look, but then she restored her soft smile and said, "I believe in you, because Lillie also believes in you."
"Trust too much..."
Hoshino still felt that he couldn't understand the other party, but this time there was no problem. Now the Ether Paradise is still in chaos, and the international police are not convenient to move. He can take advantage of the chaos and release all the Pokémon.
As for what to do in the future, he has already thought about it, and he will leave it to Wanshiwu to help. If you want to go home, you will send it back no matter where your home is. If you don’t want to go home, you can hand it over to the Ether Foundation. , after all, that's what it's for.
After sorting out the information, he thought of one more thing, so he asked, "Chairman, can you explain what happened to Xiao Xingyun?"
"no problem."
Lusamine didn't care anymore, so she told her plan along the way.
From the earliest creation of attributes for the convenience of catching the ultimate beast: space, to the accidental capture of the injured Lunala a few years ago, and learned about the child of the star and some things in the ultimate space.
It's a pity that Lunala couldn't take her to the ultimate space, so she collected some legends and stories, and found another star child that was hidden by the ancient Alola people!
"Another one?"
Hoshino was a little surprised, Lusamine nodded, and continued to explain that in the past, the Sun Moon Beast actually gave birth to two Star Children and entrusted them to the royal family of the Alola Kingdom to take care of them.
But after all, Lunala ruled Alola for a period of time in the past, which made them fear the power of the Starchild and wanted to possess it, and then there was a civil strife in the royal family.
The final result is that some people escaped with a star child, and the remaining part kept their promise and raised the other star child, and finally evolved into Lunala and left Alola.
However, this civil strife accelerated the disintegration of the kingdom. It didn't take long for the Alola Kingdom to disintegrate completely, leaving only a few descendants, and because of these things, many things were not preserved.
As for the people who escaped with the other Star Child, since the Sun and Moon Flute was guarded, they could only focus on the power left by the Sun and Moon Beast on the Sun Wheel Altar for safety.
It's a pity that these people failed to defeat the overlord of the guards, and their hopes were shattered. The remaining people were chased and killed by the people of the kingdom, so they could only seal the child of the star in the reverse world, so that future generations can find it.
Lusamine obtained this part of the legendary story by accident, and successfully brought Nebula out of the reverse world, preparing to be trained as Solgaleo to take herself to the ultimate space.
But a few years ago, Necrozma first appeared in the sky above the Ether Paradise. The powerful strength of the other party made her change her mind, and she also knew the existence of the glorious God from the legend.
A few months ago, she took advantage of the fluctuations in the ultimate space and used the ultimate beast to communicate several times. Finally, she got a response from Necrozma and successfully reached a cooperation with the other party...
That's the whole story, Hoshino didn't expect Xiao Xingyun to be the child of the star, seems to be related to Lunala or sibling?
"It's a bit messy...let me sort it out."
Seeing his expression, Lusamine smiled softly and said, "That's about it. Is there anything else you want to ask? Before I'm captured, as long as you want to ask, I can answer whatever I know. "
"I have nothing to ask for now..."
Hoshino was going to leave now, and he would come back sooner after finishing the work. Then he looked at the hospital bed and said, "The chairman should take a good rest recently, and spend more time chatting with Lilia, and there is..."
Before she finished speaking, Lusamine frowned slightly, and said in a reproachful tone: "You still call me the director? Should I change my mind?"
"What?"
"From now on, just call me the same as Lillie, you can just call me mother or mother~"
"..."
Seeing Lusamine say this with a bit of playfulness, Hoshino's brain froze for a few seconds before he finally realized that the other party agreed with him and Lillie!
"Uh...this..."
"Aren't you used to it? Take your time, but I hope you won't do something unfriendly to you just because I wanted to stop you, and then you will do something to Lillie because of it, and what was wrong with you at the beginning?" about... sorry..."
After speaking, Lusamine seemed to get up to apologize, but was stopped by Hoshino, and then he said with a smile: "How long has passed, don't worry about it, you should take a good rest now, I will take care of you Lillie's."
Being supported by him and lying down again, Lusamine smiled very gratified, and said softly: "Meeting you may be the luckiest thing in Lilia's life, thank you for taking care of her for so long... ..."
"Well, meeting her is also the greatest luck for me~"
……
After coming out of the ward, Lilia had already finished breakfast with the Howling Tails, and was waiting by the side. Seeing him smiling, she asked curiously, "What did you talk about with your mother? You're so happy..."
"I didn't talk about anything. If you want to know, you can ask her yourself."
Hoshino responded with a smile, and then said that he still had something to do and needed to leave. Lilia suddenly showed a resentful expression, and then regained his composure, saying: "Be careful on the road, I will continue to take care of my mother here to rest."
"Ah."
Watching Hoshino leave, Lillie walked into the ward again, but at this moment Lusamine suddenly called out softly: "Lillie, lend me your phone."
"OK, all right."
Hoshino didn't know what was going on in the back of the ward, but at the corner to the elevator, he ran into an acquaintance who was hiding here with a dog.
"What are you doing? Don't you go in and take a look? Your mother and sister are both inside."
"Do you care what I do?"
Gladion responded coldly with a straight face, then turned around and took the elevator to leave.
Watching the elevator door close, Hoshino shook his head. It could be seen that the other party really wanted to visit him in the ward, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
"By the way... I haven't gotten into the elevator yet!"
Moments later, after leaving the hospital, Gladion was nowhere to be seen, and Hoshino didn't care about him, so he rode Millerton directly to the port area, under the banner of participating in the rescue, and easily got on the boat to the etheric paradise .
Because of the accident over there, tourists are forbidden to go there for the past two days, but for him in Alola Star Zhongxing Zhongxing, just brushing his face is enough.
After coming to the Ether Paradise, he greeted some trainers who participated in the rescue, and then he planned to follow the location provided by Lusamine to find the hidden collection room.
But when he took the elevator to the first floor, Bi Ke suddenly ran over with someone and shouted: "Chairman, you are finally back!"
"What the hell?" Hoshino turned around and looked around, wondering, "Where is the chairman?"
"Actually, the chairman just called to tell us that she is temporarily unable to come forward for some reasons, and she also plans to resign from the position of chairman and let you be the new chairman."
Bi Ke smiled and explained, for her, this is Lusamine's test for her son-in-law, and now that this kind of accident happened in the Ether Paradise, it is a very good time for the test!
But for Hoshino, this is being sold by his mother-in-law. The other party does not want to drag the Ether Foundation into the water, so as long as he resigns to recuperate and disappear for a few days, then no one will continue to pay attention to her, but focus on himself .
After all, it is very meaningful to suddenly rise to the position at such a critical moment, and he is also a public figure of Alola himself, known to many people, so attracting popularity is the best.
"This is really..."
Hoshino didn't know what to say, but since this is the case, then he should be it, anyway, Lusamine was using him as a shield, and then dragged it until she was discharged from the hospital to solve the following matters.
Looking at Bi Ke and the others in front of him, he thought for a while and said, "Continue to participate in the rescue first. Rescuing wild Pokémon itself is the responsibility of our Ethereum Foundation. There may be a batch of Pokémon later, and you are also responsible." Take care of it, as for the others, let’s talk about it later, I still have something to do.”
"Roger that!"
Bi Ke immediately led the others into action, but Zaobo, who was hiding in the dark, stared at Hoshino, almost biting off his handkerchief.
He has worked so hard for so many years to climb to the position of branch chief, but someone in front of him directly ascended to the sky in one step. Is this the difference between people...
After sending these people away, Hoshino immediately went to the back of the mansion. After some groping, he found the entrance in Lusamine's room, and finally came to the collection room.
"It's really cold..."
Feeling the chill, he looked at the frozen Pokémon around him. It was really hard to accept at first glance, but knowing that these were still alive, they were just frozen in a sleep state, and they could be alive and kicking when they were unfrozen. Still acceptable.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to take action, Lila's voice suddenly came from behind...
"Hold on! Hands up!"
"Does Tiaozi like to follow you so much?"
Hoshino raised his hands, unexpectedly he was still being followed. He turned around, looked at Lila who was alone, and asked calmly, "Are you alone? Didn't you bring any men?"
"I'm enough alone."
Lila still had that glamorous attitude. While staring at him, she also looked around from the corner of her eye, and then said, "Thank you for leading me to find the evidence. I didn't expect people to be so cruel."
"The white and fat ones I raised are still alive, and I will be taken care of by the Ether Foundation from now on, how good it is."
Seeing Hoshino's words, she sighed softly and asked, "Are you really going to choose to excuse Lusamine? You know the seriousness of these things! If you choose to excuse, you will be considered an accomplice!"
"I'm not that amazing..."
Hoshino slowly put his hand down, and said slowly, "I just want my beloved girl to be accompanied by her mother, that's all!"
After finishing the words, he took out the elf ball and threw it, and Millerton appeared instantly. Before Lila had time to take out the elf ball, he was thrown to the ground by him.
"This strange Pokémon..."
Lila couldn't break free at all, and then Hoshino's lazy voice continued to sound: "Sorry, can you pretend that you didn't see what happened here?"
"..."
Listening to the voice, Lila, who seemed to be very angry at first, suddenly showed a soft smile, and was pressed to the ground like this, laughing: "If I really came to find evidence, I wouldn't come here alone. I just want to Look at your determination, for the girl you love... that's great."
"..."
Hoshino waved his hand, signaling Millerton to let him go, Lila stood up, rubbed his shoulders, and then said with a smile: "Then I'll pretend I didn't see it, you solved the Alola incident, and let me finally An exchange that can go home during the year-end holiday!"
"Don't die suddenly."
"Don't worry, I will take at least half a year's vacation this time."
Lila turned around and waved her hand. Before leaving, she looked back and smiled and said, "I always feel that I will often see you on the news in the future. Be good~"
"Don't worry!"
Watching Lila leave, Hoshino shook his head, feeling that there were indeed a lot of strange people around him, then he looked at Millerton who was walking back, and asked, "Is it cold here?"
"Moli~"
Millerton shook his head. After becoming like this, he was not afraid of the cold any more. He just felt a little hungry and wanted to eat a sandwich.
"Okay, I'll make it for you when I get back, but there is only one seasoning left, so I can't add seasoning."
"Moli~"
Then Hoshino began to defrost the collection room. There was a key to defrost the switch, which was quite fast. Soon a Pikachu popsicle turned back into Pikachu, but he was still dreaming and did not wake up.
Then the other Pokémon also thawed out, but they were still fast asleep. Luckily, Lusamine also explained that there is a mechanism here that can activate the elevator and go directly to the mansion above.
After a while, the elevator went up to the backyard of the mansion, and finally the first Pikachu that had been unfrozen woke up and looked around in a daze.
It seemed that it hadn't figured out the situation, and after looking around for a week, it burst into tears.
"What's wrong? Are you hungry?"
Hoshino hurried over to check the situation, but was stunned to the ground by [-] volts, and then other Pokémon around woke up one after another, and almost all started crying at the same time.
"what's the situation?"
He couldn't figure it out, and couldn't comfort him at all. Fortunately, at this moment, Lilia suddenly made a video call, but it was Lusamine on the other side.
"Oh, it looks like you've already thawed them out, aren't these babies so cute, they'll cry when I'm not around~"
"What's the matter?"
"I've said it all, I've always taken care of them as my own children. After all, they are babies when I bring them back, and they all regard me as the closest person, plus the reason why I freeze them so that they don't grow up..."
"Kindergarten, right?"
Hoshino finally understood that these Pokémon had Lusamine as their mother, and they had a very deep relationship, none of them would be willing to leave here.
But now he is the one who has a headache. Who can resist throwing you into a kindergarten where all the children are crying?At this moment, Lusamine smiled and said, "I'll trouble you to take care of it."
"Hey……"
Before she finished speaking, the phone hung up, and Liliai took back her mobile phone with a worried expression on her face: "Would this be too much..."
After hearing this, Lusamine didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "Let him be more proficient in taking care of children, so that he won't marry you and have children in the future, and he won't even be able to take care of children!"
"Marriage... It's too early to say this, we just dated... and..."
Lilia's cheeks flushed slightly, she was a little shy and almost speechless, and she was still taken care of by Hoshino, he was too good at taking care of children.
Seeing her daughter's appearance, Lusamine stretched out her hand to gently stroke her face, and asked, "Do you think I'll go shopping with you someday?"
"After your mother recovers, as long as you have time, any day is fine!"
"Okay~"
……
In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and the international police did not find any evidence, and then news spread that Hoshino was appointed as the new director of the Ethereum Foundation.
Regardless of whether it is in the Alola region or other regions, almost everyone who pays attention to this aspect is greatly surprised.
In the largest company in a region, it's okay to change the leader if he wants to, but the identity of this newcomer is too special.
But Hoshino didn't bother to care about this, he was almost driven crazy by this group of kindergartens, and he brought the Wanshiwu family to play with them, and Pikachu even got a few of the new leaves' hairs, so he was able to hold back.
Fortunately, another week passed, and Lusamine finally recovered and was discharged from the hospital. However, she did not immediately return to the Ether Paradise, which was being repaired. Instead, she took her daughter to the commercial street to go shopping, buy clothes and eat.
They had a good time, but Hoshino was still being tortured in the Ether Paradise. Fortunately, he brought a bunch of members of the Ether Foundation to be tortured together.
A few days later, after receiving news from the Space Research Institute that the fluctuations in the ultimate space gradually stabilized, the international police finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lila was also preparing to leave, and so were the others, including Gladion. He had gone through so much, and after Lusamine's matter was settled, he had decided to continue on the road of international police.
He didn't go back to Ether Paradise, nor did he visit his mother and sister, but on the day when he was about to leave with his colleagues in the port area of Hauole City, Lusamine came here in person...
Seeing her appearing at the port, Gladion still had a straight face and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Come see you off."
"..."
Seeing that he didn't respond, Lusamine lowered her head reproachfully, and said, "I'm sorry, I owe you too much..."
"At this point, it's meaningless to say these things. If you feel that you owe me, then just stay with Lilia and take my share..."
After saying this calmly, Gladion turned around and boarded the boat with his colleagues. Lusamine stood where she was, in the setting sun, like a mother who watched her child leave home to go on a adventure.
Seeing the boat slowly start to move, she smiled, waved her hand towards that side, and shouted: "Remember to pay attention to safety when working outside, and remember to call home if you are lonely. I believe that one day in the future, our family... ...will definitely be reunited!"
Hearing his mother's voice, Gladion squatted on the deck, gently stroking the hair of the Silver Companion Beast, and after a long silence, a smile appeared on his face.
On the other side of the port, Lillie and Hoshino stood together, watching this scene with a smile.
After waiting for the boat to gradually disappear at the end of the dusk, looking at Lusamine who was still staying in place, Lillie smiled and waved her hands and shouted: "Let's go home together, my lord mother~"
"Well, here we come!"
