Farming in the Pokémon World

In the living room, Otani listened to Lai Beicha's details and suddenly understood.

It turns out that Lai Beicha came out from the Tower of Rest.

No wonder Darkrai came out at that time. He must have sensed the presence of a ghost-type Pokémon so he came out to check.

When he found there was no threat, he returned to Otani's shadow.

Otani looked at his shadow and nodded in thanks.

Otani's shadow wavered slightly.

"Then come on, are you willing to stay here?"

Otani asked expectantly.

"Cup!"

Lai Beicha nodded happily.

"That's great, but please take good care of this teacup because it is one of my most precious things."

Otani said to Lai Beicha very much.

"Cup!"

Lai Beicha nodded vigorously, indicating that he would definitely take good care of it.

"Then you are officially welcome to join our big family and come to Beicha"

"Cup~"

During lunch, Otani formally introduced Lai Beicha to everyone.

Lai Beicha was a little shy, but with Otani's encouragement, she introduced herself loudly.

"Beibei~Beibei~"

Hua Beibei happily stopped in front of Lai Beicha and greeted him.

The two little guys soon started playing together.

Food for ghost-type Pokémon is still a bit troublesome. Although blocks can meet their basic needs, where to get the vital life energy is a problem.

Otani turned his gaze to Venusaur, thought for a moment, and let Venusaur gather a small ball of natural energy.

Otani called Lai Beicha, but before he said anything, he saw Lai Beicha's eager eyes and knew that he had guessed right.

Through the original cube, Venusaur realized the cycle of life, and his energy contained the breath of life.

Now the biggest problem has been solved. I watched Lai Beicha take a few big gulps of the food and then he couldn't eat anymore and burped.

It landed slowly on the table, obviously he was a little full.

Looking at that small ball of energy, only less than one fifth of it had been consumed.

After checking Venusaur and finding no damage, Otani was completely relieved.

In the afternoon, the director of the welfare home brought the children to Otani’s farm to experience labor.

Otani asked the children to help pull the radishes.

"Mother Melissa, I want to become a trainer as good as Brother Otani in the future."

Xiao Wu spoke loudly to Melissa.

Melissa looked relieved and squatted down to touch Xiao Wu's head.

"Can you tell mom why?"

"If I were as good as Brother Otani, I could protect everyone and Mother Melissa."

"Then Xiaowu, you have to work hard, but what you need to do now is to grow up quickly."

Otani said encouragingly with a smile.

"Yeah, I will. I want to have my own Butterfree Army just like Brother Otani!"

Xiao Wu said loudly.

Da Gu, who was drinking water, spat it out. What nonsense is this kid talking about?

Dean Melissa looked at Otani awkwardly and quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it to him.

Otani shook his hand and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

"Xiao Wu, why do you think so?"

"Because I'm really powerful. With so many Butterfrees, I'm not afraid of anyone bullying me!"

Otani thought about it and it seemed to be true. If all of Butterfree used FierceWind together, the power would definitely be terrifying.

Xiao Wu's words awakened Otani, who seemed to have always neglected the fighting power of Butterfree.

But this kind of situation shouldn't happen.

Moreover, the alliance has strict controls. Unless it is necessary, farmers' Pokémon cannot attack at will. If they are caught by the alliance, they will be fined heavily. Of course, self-defense counterattacks are not included.

In the evening, with the help of the children from the welfare home, all the radishes in the radish field were successfully harvested.

In order to reward them, Otani made a lot of small cookies.

The children happily took the cookies made by Otani, held hands, and followed Melissa back to the welfare home.

Originally, Otani wanted to invite them to dinner, but Melissa refused.

Because the aunt at the welfare home has almost prepared dinner.

Otani did not force it. He sent the children from the welfare home away and completed the rest of the work with Meow Meow and the others.

After dinner in the evening, Miaomiao and the others found Dagu somewhat awkwardly.

"Mr. Otani, we need to leave. The leader has assigned us a new mission."

Musashi spoke first.

Otani was stunned for a moment, and then felt a little sad. After all, they had been together for such a long time, and he really liked these three guys.

I also thought about changing them, but the trio declined.

I didn't expect that the time to say goodbye would come in the end.

"We will miss you, meow~"

Miaomiao was in tears. The time he spent on the farm was the best time of his life.

"Thank you for your care during this time" x3

Otani sighed.

“When are you planning to leave?”

"Tonight"

"Can you tell me why he left?"

The three of them were silent.

Otani didn't press the issue.

Some snacks were prepared for the trio to take away.

Meowth, Musashi, and Kojiro once again put on their favorite Team Rocket uniforms, and under the cover of night, they quickly left the farm and soon disappeared.

Otani looked at the direction they left for a long time without saying a word.

I was silently wondering what the reason was.

I had no clue for a moment.

The next morning, the farm became a little deserted without the trio. Without them playing around, Otani was a little uncomfortable.

However, the work still had to be done, but the progress was a little slower due to the lack of three people. So Otani asked Bulbasaur and the others to suspend training and help with the work.

In the afternoon, someone finally came to the on-site job recruitment posted by Otani.

When Otani heard what the housekeeper's sister said, he was also surprised and quickly cleaned up. He saw a young man with long hair standing in the yard, looking at the Butterfree flying in the sky with some obsession.

"Oh, what a beautiful figure! It makes me want to sing loudly, la la la ~"

The young man began to sing as if no one was around.

Otani's face twitched when he heard this. He was completely tone-deaf and his singing was not even as good as mine.

"cough cough"

Otani coughed forcefully a few times, already thinking about how to politely reject the young artist.

"Hello, sir, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Richard, and I come from a musical family. My dream is to become a great rock singer. I am currently working hard towards my dream."

Because Richard behaved so well, Otani was unable to refuse him for a moment.

"Mr. Richard, I'm sorry, but you may not be exactly what I want."

Otani finally spoke out.

“No! My journey as a musician ends here!”

Richard was a little sad, and then very depressed, he walked out of the farm step by step.

Otani touched his chin and called Richard anyway.

Richard was a little surprised.

"Sir, have you changed your mind?"

"Richard, were you a bel canto singer before?"

Otani asked.

When Richard heard this, the expression on his face disappeared and he nodded silently.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want you to sing it again for me without covering up your beautiful voice?"

Richard was silent for a moment and then nodded.

Then, as if by muscle memory, he stood up straight and began to sing.

The melodious tenor voice reverberated throughout the farm, and Otani closed his eyes and listened quietly.

The song ended quickly and Otani led the applause.

Richard bowed politely.

"I have some small suggestions. In fact, bel canto can be combined with rock music. The two are not in conflict."

Otani experienced the information explosion in his previous life and had heard all kinds of music.

The combination of rock music and beautiful voice is also very exciting.

The most classic one is Vitas's The Fifth Element.

After that, Otani began to sing, and Richard was fascinated by the song.

"Wonderful! So wonderful! So loud and so thrilling! So perfect, this is the path I have been pursuing. Thank you, Mr. Otani!"

Richard said excitedly.

"So I decided to hire you as a resident singer in our bar. You just need to start at 8pm and end at 10pm every day. The salary will be good."

Richard left the farm with many thanks.

Otani could see that although Richard was very well-mannered and polite to others, his clothes were obviously a little damaged.

Otani silently judged in his heart that it must be a rebellious young master from some family who ran away from home for his dream.

Shaking his head, he didn't care about these things. He was just helping out. Whether he could make a name for himself in the future depended on himself.

In the evening, Richard, brought his Pokémon to the farm bar.

It's a speaker cricket and a booming gorilla.

The cheerful drum beats and the melodious violin sounds are unexpectedly harmonious.

Richard obviously took Otani's words to heart and combined classical music with rock.

Let him really tinker with some good music.

The Pokémon in the bar applauded him out of respect.

Richard was recognized for the first time and sang even harder.

At ten o'clock, the bar closed. Otani handed the money to Richard. Richard took it carefully, kept it close to his body, and then happily left the farm with his Pokémon.

Boomstick, Galar region?

That's pretty far away.

Otani smiled and closed the bar door.
