Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Tian Mengru stood quietly in the yard, her eyes fixed on the fossilized pterosaur that was lying on the mat like a small hill in front of her, sleeping soundly and snoring loudly. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"This... this fat guy in front of me, is he really a fossil pterosaur? Could it be some strange variant of Snorlax?"

Tian Mengru was full of suspicion, and her eyes were full of doubts about the identity of the creature in front of her.

Lin Yi looked at Tian Mengru's suspicious expression and felt ashamed. He raised his hand to his forehead helplessly and explained:

"As you can see, this pterosaur fossil of mine was in my mother's research institute. Every day, it either ate to its heart's content or slept soundly. Over time, it became what it is now."

"How long has it been since your fossil pterosaur spread its wings and flew?"

Tian Mengru's eyes were fixed on the fossil pterosaur's wings, which looked extremely exaggerated due to its obesity, and she asked.

"It's been several months now. I've actually tried to make it lose weight, and it's been somewhat effective."

Lin Yi said, sighing softly.

"What you see now is its appearance after it lost weight. If you had seen its appearance before, you would probably be shocked."

When Tian Mengru heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously, and she was secretly surprised:

Can this make you fatter? Is this true?

In her inherent impression, the "skin and bones" and agile body of the fossil pterosaur is a strong proof of its health and strength.

According to common sense, fossil pterosaurs, as the overlords of the sky in the ultra-ancient times, should have nothing to do with obesity.

It should have been flying freely in the vast sky, dominating the sky with its own powerful strength and inherent wildness. How could it indulge itself and fall into such a decadent situation?

Tian Mengru couldn't help but think to herself that if she owned a fossil pterosaur, she would never let it become like this.

Because the wildness and pride deep in the bones of the fossil pterosaur will never allow it to degenerate.

"So, you came to me this time to ask me to help you lose weight for your fossil pterosaur?"

Tian Mengru raised her eyebrows slightly and asked softly.

"That's not the case. It's not difficult for me to make the Pterosaur lose weight. After all, as its trainer, I have the ability to do so. What I'm worried about is that this Pterosaur is too 'obedient'."

Lin Yi responded with a slightly helpless look.

Tian Mengru showed a hint of doubt in her eyes and said in confusion.

"Isn't it something to be happy about when Pokémon obeys the trainer's orders? Back then, my Pteranodon was extremely resistant to me. It took me a lot of effort and many years to finally get it to accept me and obey my orders."

"It's not obedient in the conventional sense. To be precise, rather than saying it's well-behaved and submissive, it's better to say it's... cowardly and a coward."

Lin Yi explained with a wry smile.

"cowardice?"

Tian Mengru couldn't help but be stunned, with a look of astonishment on her face.

In her stereotype, how could the fossilized pterosaur, which was always known for its violent and ferocious behavior, be associated with the word "cowardly"? This was simply beyond her imagination.

Seeing Tian Mengru's face full of disbelief, Lin Yi slowly walked forward, stretched out his hand and gently patted the fossil pterosaur lying on the mat, while raising his voice and shouting:

"Fossilized pterosaur, fossilized pterosaur, wake up."

However, the only response he got was the thunderous snoring.

"Gululu..."

"Hey! Fossilized pterosaur!"

Lin Yi frowned slightly and shouted even louder.

This time, the fossil pterosaur finally showed some reaction. Its huge body turned over with great difficulty, as if it was wriggling reluctantly in its sleep.

"Don't sleep! It's the end of the world!"

Lin Yi continued to yell at the top of his lungs, trying to wake it up with extreme words.

But the fossil pterosaur merely tilted its huge head, and then fell into the abyss of sleep again, snoring still rising and falling, as if all the troubles in the world had nothing to do with it.

"..."

Seeing this, Lin Yi was speechless and remained silent for a long time.

Then, he seemed to have thought of something, leaned over slightly closer to the fossil pterosaur, lowered his voice, and said softly:

"dinner time."

"Roar?!"

In an instant, the fossil pterosaur that was still immersed in a dream suddenly opened its copper bell-like eyes, and a scorching light instantly glowed in its eyes.

It looked just like a puppy that hadn't eaten for a long time and was eagerly waiting to be fed. It opened its mouth wide full of sharp teeth and stared at Lin Yi excitedly. Its eyes seemed to be telling something clearly.

What? Eating already? This is so good! Come on! I can't wait!

Lin Yi clearly felt the gaze of Tian Mengru from behind him, which was full of burning surprise and confusion. He suddenly felt humiliated and felt a hot current rushing to his cheeks.

He slowly took a step back, skillfully making Tian Mengru's figure appear in the fossil pterosaur's field of vision.

"Hoohoo!"

As soon as the fossil pterosaur's eyes fell on the strange figure of Tian Mengru, it was suddenly shocked as if by lightning. Its huge body trembled violently, and its fat shook several times like surging waves.

Then, it quickly curled up its originally stretched-out huge body into a ball with lightning speed, and its shape was exactly like a huge ball of meat.

At this moment, it was shivering there, as if a breeze could blow it away. It didn't even have the courage to secretly peek at Tian Mengru, and completely closed itself off.

Tian Mengru witnessed this jaw-dropping scene and could not help but stand there in a daze, thinking secretly in her heart.

Is this cowardly fellow really the fossilized pterosaur that roamed the sky in the ancient times?

Even a coward known for being timid and weak would probably not be so inferior in courage.

This is really too contrary to common sense and hard to accept.

"I see what you mean now."

Tian Mengru raised her head slightly and sighed deeply. The sigh contained helplessness and a little melancholy about this difficult situation.

"Is there any way?"

Lin Yi gazed at Tian Mengru expectantly, with a spark of hope in his eyes.

"I'll give it a try. You can go and take care of your own business first. You don't have to stay here. However, don't have too high expectations. After all, this situation is quite...special."

Tian Mengru shook her head slightly and said solemnly.

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Lin Yi nodded slightly, then turned around and left resolutely with firm and swift steps, completely ignoring the pitiful eyes of the fossil pterosaur, which were full of pleading and reluctance, and eagerly wanted him to stay and accompany it.

Tian Mengru slowly took a step forward, her eyes fixed on the fossilized pterosaur that was shaking like a sieve in front of her.

She bit her lower lip lightly, frowning slightly, as if she was thinking hard in her mind about where to start in order to solve this troublesome problem and let the former overlord of the sky regain his former majesty and courage.
