Chapter 1383 The Fox Returns to Her Mother's Home
Cypress trees waited for the bright sunshine at the villa on the mountainside.

"Where do you think Professor Oak is right now?"

"We're almost at the research institute," the multi-channel phone relayed Professor Oak's location.

Although he was allowed to explore freely and his physical condition was trusted, the doctor was, after all, quite old, and there were things he needed to be careful about.

It must be said that the old-timer is still a true newbie. Despite getting beaten up by wild Pokémon while running around aimlessly, he still continues to explore with full enthusiasm and curiosity.

He wouldn't even let him rest.

I wish I could explore every corner of Platinum Silver Mountain in a single day.

Without a map, Professor Oak was clearly lost and could only follow the man-made irrigation canals, turning left and right until he finally arrived near the Seishi Ecological Research Institute.

Then I was drawn to the Green Age Pokémon there.

After much deliberation, Kashiwagi decided to go and take a look, and also let Shizuo Soroya go back to her "hometown".

"Let's go to the research institute."

"Awoo?"

As Xicui Zoroya jumped off the treadmill, a hopeful light flashed in her eyes.

Is it finally time to let it go?
Very good!
Finally, I can escape this sea of ​​suffering!
Washi Zorua swung its fluffy tail and followed Kashiwagi like a little dog.

Seeing that it could return to its former carefree life of eating and waiting for death, its legs no longer ached, its head no longer hurt, and it could run five kilometers in one go again.

Fearing being left behind, it followed closely behind the cypress, circling around his steps and darting back and forth in the gaps, clinging to him tightly.

Kashiwagi laughed in exasperation at this guy, "Are you afraid I won't be able to step on you?"

Xi Cui Zoroya remained silent, only looking at him with her bright, sparkling eyes, showing an eager expression.

Helpless, Bai Mu said, "Don't come near me, keep a meter away."

"Ow?"

Szczessolowia's ears drooped in frustration.

The pitiful appearance would have softened most people's hearts, but Kashiwagi had spent many days with it and knew its cunning well. "Either you stay here."

"Huh!?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Cui Zoruoya immediately became unhappy, obediently retreating a meter away and following him obediently.

The villa on the mountainside wasn't exactly close to the research institute, since its specific location was outside the Platinum Silver Mountains, barely considered adjacent.

In the past, when he went to wash in Solomon, he could only walk halfway before he had to rest because he couldn't go any further.

Today, however, she stubbornly followed until the very end, even though her steps were unsteady as if she were drunk, and her little tongue was sticking out and she couldn't bring it back.

Even upon seeing the outline of the research institute, it seemed to unleash a surge of power from somewhere, quickening its pace towards its unfamiliar yet longed-for home.

"Ow-!!"

"Soluoya shouted."

Just then, a basketful of people stood at the entrance of the research institute.

They were welcoming Professor Oak, who had suddenly arrived, when Zoroah suddenly appeared, bursting in with tears streaming down his face.

"Aww~ Aww~"

Researchers are naturally familiar with the 'Selenesoroa', as its birth and growth have always been a headache, as it is one of the core elements of ecological restoration.

I recently entrusted it to Champion Oule's care so that it could experience a different living environment.

Why are you back so soon?
and……

"Huh? Zoroya, have you lost weight?" A female researcher squatted down and looked at the obviously slimmer Zoroya, and couldn't help but reach out her hand.

Soroya, with tears welling up in her eyes, threw herself into her arms, crying out, "Aww! Aww!"

It was so wronged.

For the past two weeks, I have been subjected to inhuman torture.

Not only did it not get any food, it also had to exercise every day. It had never experienced anything like this since it was pampered from a young age.
The female researcher's words attracted the attention of the others, who surrounded Xicuizoroya and weighed them one by one, finding that they were indeed much lighter.

Before, when I picked her up, she was like a heavy weight, so heavy and her flesh was all lumpy.

Now I can clearly feel that the soft flesh around my waist and limbs has shrunk considerably, and it feels extremely firm to the touch.

Does this mean I've successfully lost weight?
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, never expecting that in just half a month, Kashiwagi would give them a completely different Shizuoya.

Upon closer inspection, it's not hard to notice that its fur is smoother and finer, as if it's been coated with oil but doesn't stick to your hands. It's no longer as rough and tangled as before, forming excessively fat, garlic-clove-like fur.

No wonder he's the champion!
They're really professional at raising Pokémon!
"Everyone, cough cough!"

The director's cough could be heard.

The researchers then realized that their immediate priority was to entertain Professor Oak, so they quickly put Shizukuzoroa on the ground and apologized to him in shame.

Professor Oak chuckled and waved his hand, "It's alright! As a Pokémon researcher, this level of focus is to be expected."

Meanwhile, Kashiwa arrived.

He said, "Professor Oak, you've gone a bit too far."

"Bai Mu! This mountain of yours is really beautiful!"

Professor Oak gave him a thumbs up, "Not only are there a wide variety of Pokémon, but they are also all incredibly healthy!"

Kashiwagi laughed and said, "Absolutely. There is a benevolent king on my mountain who will not stand idly by and watch over the health of Pokémon."

“The King of Mercy? Ah! It’s Calycerin!” Professor Oak realized what he was talking about and said wistfully, “I really want to meet it.”

The cypress wood remains undecided.

It depends on whether Calyrex minds. If Calyrex is unwilling, even Professor Oak won't force him.

The group entered the research institute.

Professor Oak had been through a lot all morning and really wanted to rest.

Professor Oak!

Some of the researchers surrounded him, while others surrounded Kashiwagi, asking him for Pokémon knowledge.

Kashiwagi naturally asked him how he had raised the Green Zorya, making it so thin in just half a month.

"Nothing special, just exercise."

He rebuked them without hesitation: "You spoil Zorua far too much. Its health is not good. To put it bluntly, its blood is probably sweeter than a watermelon."

"Isn't that a bit too much?"

The researcher in charge of looking after Washizoroa was a little embarrassed.

Another researcher adjusted his glasses. "No, that's possible. Watermelons aren't actually very sweet, while Zoroya's glycemic index..."

He didn't go on.

After all, my colleague was practically crawling into a hole in the ground.

As a researcher attempting to recreate the Green Pokémon, the fact that he raised a Pokémon like this raises serious questions about his professionalism.

"Have you adjusted it yet?"

"No, it's still a long way off."

Kashiwagi calmly said, "I just wanted it to come back and take a look. It had been wanting to come back, so I granted its wish."

That's probably not what "Xi Cui Zoruoya" meant.

The researchers looked at each other and had no intention of leaving Seljuk Zorua behind.

They all wanted to see a healthy Pokémon.

Unaware of this, the elusive Soroya was resting in its little nest. The familiar scent relaxed it, and it soon fell asleep.

In its sleep, its life returned to its former state, continuing to eat and drink to its heart's content, and its waistline expanded rapidly and endlessly.

Finally, one day, as it ate a piece of cake, the whole fox exploded with a bang!
"Ow!"

Seljuk Soroya suddenly awoke and looked around in a panic.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I realized I was in a safe environment and my waistline hadn't expanded as much.

It licked its fur, somewhat puzzled, to relax.

In the beginning, it also had nightmares, dreaming that Kashiwagi and several ferocious Pokémon were chasing it. It kept running forward, but could never escape their clutches.

After regaining consciousness, it discovered that it was running in real life, which left a considerable shadow on it.

But what about dreams these days?

The celestial being couldn't understand it, it decided to go get something to eat.

It habitually walked to its food bowl, only to find it empty. It barked a few times, but no one came.

The Washi Zorua didn't pay much attention, skillfully opened the room door and went outside. Not long after, it encountered its first researcher.

"Ow~"

Without hesitation, it used its cuteness to beg for food, just like it always has.

The other person smiled and stroked its head, and did indeed put their hand into their pocket, but ultimately did not take anything out.

"I almost forgot, I can't give you anything to eat."

"!"

Seljuk was shocked.

What do you mean I can't be given anything to eat? Have I done anything heinous?

It hurriedly circled around the person's feet, but the person immediately ran away, not giving it a chance to pester them at all.

Washi Zorua: "..."

snort!
If you don't give it, plenty of others will!

Outraged, it ran off elsewhere to beg for food.

However, something happened that Zechariah could hardly believe.

Although everyone acted as gently as ever, when it came time to feed them, one or two of them refused.

Am I not awake yet?

Absolutely, otherwise how could there be such a hellish nightmare!
Seljuk returned to his room in a daze, collapsing weakly into his bed like a wounded puppy.

The researchers, who were hiding in the shadows and spying, felt very sorry for him.

"How about... we try feeding her a little bit? A little bit shouldn't hurt, right? She'll have to eat sooner or later anyway."

"No, the champion said to set a fixed time, a fixed location, and a fixed quantity. You'll disrupt the plan if you do it this way."

"But I really can't bear it—"

Zorroia is a Pokémon they've watched grow up, and it's hard for them to accept that the once chubby, seemingly blessed little fox is now sleeping hungry.

These large-scale pig farmers simply couldn't bear to do it.

In desperation, they took out the medical report from Xicui Zoroya to calm themselves down.

That's right, cooling your brain with external force.

The results were outstanding.

Upon seeing the terrifying numbers on the medical report, her desire to feed the child vanished instantly. Her gaze towards Shizzolso was filled with the unwavering determination of a mother willing to sacrifice everything for her child.

The shimmering zoroa had no idea what it was facing; it only thought it was still asleep and in a nightmare.

Not long after.

It's lunchtime.

Just in time, Soroya's stomach started growling. It instinctively got up and looked towards the door, where a familiar figure appeared.

It is cypress wood.

"It's time to eat."

He put down the rice bowl that was emitting a faint glow and stretched out his hand to Xicui Zorya. "You must be starving. I'll give you a few extra spoonfuls since you exercised for so long today."

"Huh!?"

Upon hearing this, Xicui Zorua became excited.

Although it was unhappy with the way the cypress was forced to exercise, the fact that the food it was eating was indeed fine was a big reason why it kept going.

Whenever I think about being able to eat this kind of food, my willpower to exercise becomes much stronger.

It buried its head deep into the rice bowl, scooped up the food with its chin like a shovel, and then savored it carefully.

Now it has learned to chew slowly and carefully, otherwise it always feels like it hasn't eaten anything at a meal and is unhappy all day.

After delivering the food, Kashiwagi left and said to the researcher guarding the door, "If you want to give it extra food, you can only feed it tree fruits with low sweetness, and the total amount cannot exceed 50 grams."

"Okay okay."

The researcher was like a green recruit.

Soon, it was afternoon.

After Professor Oak finished touring the research institute, he said to Kashiwagi, "Your power may be the key to ensuring they see the light of day again."

He had already learned from the director what Bai Mu had done for the Xi Cui Nian Mei Dragon Clan.

Ordinary people might find it unbelievable, but Professor Oak, who is well-informed, thinks it's quite normal. If Kashiwagi didn't have some special abilities, how could so many legendary Pokémon and mythical Pokémon be attracted to him?

"These things require everyone's joint effort." Kashiwagi had no intention of taking on everything himself.

He was happy that the green Pokémon could live in Orei, and he would try his best to make the most of his abilities.

But there are some things that can't be forced, and he won't try to force them.

Otherwise, wouldn't we be just like the iconic villains in the Pokémon series?

Professor Oak embarks on another journey to explore Mt. Silver, but this time he has directions and won't venture into uninhabited areas.

It was time for Xicuizoroya to go "home".

"It's time to go."

Kashiwa woke the drowsy fat fox, "Do you intend to spend the night here?"

"Ow!"

Surizoroa instinctively followed, its mind still foggy, unaware that it had only gone back to its mother's house by chance and had not been spared by Kashiwagi.

By the time they realized what was happening, they were already outside the research institute.

Xi Cuizoruoya was suddenly startled and abruptly turned around to frantically pry open the door of the research institute, but he could not open it no matter what he did.

"Ow! Ow!"

Let me in! I want to go home!

It cried out pitifully, but received no response.

Kashiwa stood behind him, hands on hips, looking at him, and said, "Stop struggling, learn to accept it. You've completely said goodbye to your old life."

"Waaah..."

How could this be...

Two clear tears streamed down the corners of Xicui Zoroya's eyes.

I thought the good days were back, but it turns out they're the end of the good days.

Dejected, Shizusu followed Kashiwagi, glancing back at the research institute every now and then, hoping someone would open the door.

But this is destined to be an unrealistic wish.

Have I been abandoned by everyone?
Washi Zorua stared blankly into thought, but then quickly remembered what Kashiwagi had told it—

"Once you successfully lose weight and develop good habits, you can return to the research institute."

It originally took that statement as a joke.

In retrospect, everyone except it was serious.
