Pinnacle of the Stars

Chapter 53 53. Xiaozhi Xiaomao
"Please go slowly."

Hanako stood at the door of the store, gently waved to the three customers and said, "Welcome to visit next time."

On the grounds of her first patronage, she insisted on giving Lu Qiu and the others a discount, and with a bitter expression on the person's face, she claimed that this was the treatment that Dr. Oki had only enjoyed once.

And tell them you're welcome.

"Thank you, Boss Hanako, the meal is delicious, especially the special yogurt, I like it very much." Sirona responded while the other party covered her face with a chuckle, "I will come again some other day."

In the sound of farewell.

Dr. Oki led the way while stroking his stomach. Even though he was walking with the younger generations, he did not try to put on the airs of the forerunners, and his temperament was very approachable.

This made Lu Qiu feel a little bit emotional. Kongmu's praise of his teacher's quality is not unreasonable.

"Hey, let me tell you that you should give me your other half. Anyway, even if you get the poke ball, Xiao Zhi, you will still be as useless as you are now."

"Don't be arrogant, when I get the Pokémon, I must teach you a good lesson."

"Yes, yes, go home and dream, it will be dawn anyway."

An angry quarrel, and the sound of deliberately provocative fire, in a few words, the other person's anger was set on the forehead.

In the middle of the small road ahead, two teenagers were carrying the same children's fishing rod. During the quarrel, they came towards Lu Qiu and the others, bumping into each other from time to time in order to grab the middle position of the road.

Looks like a good relationship.

"red."

Lu Qiu called softly, which caught Sirona's attention.

Following the eyes of the former, she couldn't help asking curiously, "Do you know him?"

Nodding his head, then shaking his head, Lu Qiu gave an ambiguous answer, "Maybe."

The blond girl was a little puzzled by the non-questionable response.

"Xiaomao, why are you arguing with Xiaozhi again?" Seeing that the two teenagers were only arguing and about to bump into him, Dr. Oki had no choice but to reach out and stop them.

"Ah, it's grandpa." Noticing the visitor in surprise, Xiaomao greeted Dr. Oki with a smile.

"Hello, Dr. Oki." On the side, Xiaozhi also put away his distraught expression, and greeted him politely.

As the son of Hanako who was raised by Dr. Oki, Xiao Zhi is also very familiar with the former.

"So, what were you two arguing about just now?" Patting his chest to the two children, Dr. Oki said to them solemnly, "See if I can help you."

Hearing this, the two looked at each other first, and just when Xiaozhi was about to speak, Xiaomao at the side immediately reached out to cover his mouth, tilted his head and said triumphantly, "Let me speak."

Xiaozhi: "."

"It's such a grandpa." Pressing Xiaozhi's forehead, Xiaomao avoided the palm of the former who grabbed him randomly, and said in a calm and obedient tone: "I was fishing by the river just now, and I happened to meet this stupid guy. , Clumsy hands and don't know it, such a long brook insists on squeezing together with me."

"Nonsense, I was the one who arrived first!" Seeing that he couldn't break free, Xiaozhi bit the opponent's palm, and under the latter's frozen expression, he said without flinching: "It's Xiaomao, you have to fight with me!" Grab the position."

"Ah?" Reluctantly maintaining the appearance of a little adult, Xiao Mao lowered his head and glanced at the empty fish barrel in the opponent's hand, and said mockingly: "I told you that I would give you one of the fish I caught, but what happened? Young Master Mao is angry, that's why you are now returning empty-handed."

Barely figuring out the cause of the incident from the bickering between the two children, Dr. Oki looked at the empty fish bucket in Xiaomao's hand, and said seriously: "I see, did you two quarrel all the way because of this incident?" ?”

"of course not!"

"No, grandpa."

In the unanimous answer, Xiaomao took out something from his pocket and held it in his hand, saying: "It's actually because of this."

Dr. Oki looked down and found that it was a worn-out Poke Ball that was only half in size.

During the same movement, Xiaozhi was holding the other half in his hand.

Unhappy, he shoved Xiaozhi away who came up to him with a shoulder, and pointed to half of the elf ball, Xiaomao explained: "I caught this elf ball from the water, but Xiaozhi insisted on snatching it from me, but now it is caught He broke it."

"I was the one who caught it first!"

Xiao Zhi, who knew that he couldn't beat the other party, didn't bother with him, but said to Dr. Omu: "It was good at first, but in the end, Xiao Mao broke it because he insisted."

"Huh? Are you blaming me?"

"You self-righteous Xiaomao, it's your fault!"

Under the quarrel that started again, Dr. Oki, who was sandwiched between the two, pressed his hand with a wry smile, signaling the two to speak slowly.

"That elf ball should have been broken." Not far behind, Sirona, who was standing still, said uncertainly to Lu Qiu: "I don't know much about this thing except for its use, how about you?"

"Well, it has nothing to do with their scramble. Before the internal space is destroyed, it is very difficult to break the poke ball by manpower." Lu Qiu reached out and touched his waist, and at the same time gave a definite answer, "Unless the two of them The combined strength can be equal to the strength of twenty monsters."

With that said, under Sirona's watchful eye, Lu Qiu walked up to Dr. Oki, blocked the two children who were getting louder and louder, and at the same time handed over a poke ball that he just took off.

"Chi no, Xiaozhi." Lu Qiu changed his words and said with a smile: "If you don't mind, I'll give this to you."

The marked price of an empty poke ball in the store is [-] Union coins, and the one Lu Qiu is holding at the moment is exactly what he brought out of the breeding house when he left his hometown.

Calculated from when it was bought back, its age is about eight years old.

"It's that strange guy from before!?" Xiaozhi subconsciously took two steps back after seeing the appearance of the person who suddenly stood in front of him. After hearing his words, he couldn't help being stunned.

"My Pokeball."

"Well, it's for you." Lu Qiu repeated.

"Take it, Xiaozhi, but before you are ten years old, you can't use it to tame Pokémon alone." Seeing that Lu Qiu came up with such a solution, Dr. Oki didn't stop him, but coughed lightly to remind him.

Even if you have Pokémon before the age of ten, you are not allowed to use it to fight against other trainers. Therefore, for children, things like pokemon balls are a bit more expensive as toys.

After hearing Dr. Oki's words, Xiaozhi hesitantly took the elf ball from Lu Qiu, and then directly bowed ninety degrees in thanks: "Thank you, big brother, and I'm sorry for the previous incident!!"

Lu Qiu smiled and said nothing.

'There is also Qinglu. No, is it Xiaomao? '

He reached out to touch his waist again.

He wondered how the child who was very similar to Chi and Qinglu would perform brilliantly in the future of this world.

'I didn't have a chance to have a duel with you before. '

'But it's never too late. '

Just when Lu Qiu turned around to give out the second poke ball, he found that Sirona had stood in front of Xiaomao at some point, performing a show with the poke ball on her fingers, and then held the boy in his arms under the applause of the other party. Gently put the poke ball in with his right hand.

"Thank you." Xiaomao thanked with a slight bow: "I will not shirk with you, big sister. As a thank you, I will use the Pokémon it tamed to defeat you in the future."

Sirona nodded and cheered, "Come on, I won't give up easily then."

Here, Xiaozhi opened his mouth, with a serious face, imitating Xiaomao's way of looking at Lu Qiu and said seriously:
"me too."

"Snapped."

There was a small sound.

Leaning out from Lu Qiu's shoulder, in Xiaozhi's bewilderment, Xiang Weimao gently pressed his tail on the other's forehead.

"Xiangweimaow said it is waiting for you."

Lu Qiu translated to Xiaozhi: "I also want you to be mentally prepared, and then don't lose so much that you cry."

"Then give it a try!" Xiaozhi turned the hat on his head, looked at Xiangwei and said in disbelief: "I will definitely defeat you in the future!"

Glancing at the servant, but there was no response, Xiangwei Mao put away his tail, and climbed onto the former's head with a proud face.

'Lu Qiu is Lu Qiu, just like a child. '
