[Pokémon] Travel with Xiaomao

Although it is inevitable to complain, in fact, Mr. Mao's preparations are very sufficient, and even, it is already a bit too much.

In addition to the necessary diving equipment such as diving suits and scuba diving equipment, he also went to the chartering company and rented a small boat for going out to sea.

Although Yiyemeizi's small brain could not understand the original intention of her companion to work hard, she still filled her stomach with doubts and obediently stepped into the cabin.

"Hey, Xiaomao, you have learned to sail a boat," the girl stood in front of the bridge, looking around, with the word "curious" clearly written on her face.But she still resisted not stretching out her paws, but blinked her eyes, throwing a question that was not a problem to her fellow travelers.

According to Mr. Mao, this kind of pediatric stuff is not even worth asking, okay?If there is no license to drive a yacht, can the chartering company lend him the boat with confidence?

But in fact, Xiaomao nodded politely, "Of course."

But the next sentence after a while was not so polite, "Don't worry, I won't drown you."

Xiao Ye touched her nose, and went to the side to tidy up her diving equipment.

Rebreathers, diving suits, diving goggles, underwater flashlights for lighting...everything you can think of is available.

After confirming that nothing was missing, Mr. Mao started the engine skillfully.

The white boat, like a water bird with spread wings, carried the two of them into the vast sea.

Although it was already past dinner time, the entire Dead Leaf City still showed no signs of falling asleep.

The cross-sea bridge is brightly lit, and occasionally one or two freighters sailing to catch the tide will pull up their loud sirens and pass between the bridge decks that have been pulled up.

Standing on the bow of the yacht, with the cool sea breeze blowing slightly, if there were not so many things that happened during the day, I would just do this carefree

This night cruise at sea seems to be quite an interesting experience for Xiao Ye, who has never seen the world much.

pity……

Thinking of the missing starfish, Xiao Ye couldn't help feeling depressed.

That kid doesn't know what's going on now.Although it seems to be able to live without eating, but after being separated for so long, Xiaoye still can't help but worry about whether it will be hungry or whether it will catch cold in the water...

After cruising for about ten minutes, the boat finally stopped in the sea area where the starfish might fall during the daytime.

"Before going into the water, I think it's better to confirm first." Mr. Mao turned off the engine, lowered the anchor again, looked at a certain girl who was in a daze, and said, "Considering the usual way of thinking, the starfish of the water system is in such a state. In the offshore waters, it is logically impossible and should not encounter any dangerous situation. But if it is not force majeure that caused the current situation of not returning for a long time..."

Having said this, Xiao Mao stopped unconsciously.

Xiao Ye frowned, although she was not smart enough to understand the other party's concealed text, but intuitively, it seemed that it was not a good thing.

"What are you trying to say?" she asked.

Xiaomao sighed, "Forget it, let's go into the water." It seemed that he still couldn't bear to mention a more hurtful possibility.That is, the starfish is voluntarily wanting to leave its old owner.Since I wanted to leave at first, seeing such an excellent opportunity, of course I wouldn't come back.

Xiaoye was full of doubts and wanted to ask questions many times, but she still didn't say anything.Since Xiaomao didn't bring up the conclusion until the end, maybe it's because he wasn't sure about it himself.She still doesn't want to worry about it, just focusing on what is in front of her is the best choice at the moment.

As a result of the discussion, it was still decided to let Xiaoye go into the water to do a rough search first.On the one hand, it’s because the sea star is Xiaoye’s Pokémon, so there should be some sense between the master and the slave; on the other hand, the seabed is originally the territory of the water-type Pokémon, so Mr. Mao really let Mr. Mao go into the water. There are so many sea stars on the seabed. He couldn't find it either, and in the end he still had to rely on Yemeizi's super power to identify it.

"Be careful after you get into the water." Seeing that a certain idiot is fully equipped and is about to start action, Xiaomao couldn't help telling him again and again, "Don't swim too far. In case of any danger, even if you find any clues, you can't wait." Don't hesitate, leave quickly, understand?"

"Yeah." Xiaoye nodded solemnly.Although she lived in the mountains since she was a child, she is not very familiar with the situation in the sea, but for her Pokémon whose whereabouts are unknown, she has to go up the knife mountain and down the frying pan.

With a "splash", there was a splash of water on the calm sea surface, and it returned to its original state after a while without leaving a trace. However, there was an unexpected guest on the dark seabed.

Xiao Mao hung the guide light on the bow of the boat, then leaned sideways on the railing of the boat.

They initially agreed on an exploration time of 30 minutes, but Xiao Mao doubted that the stupid guy who was extremely obsessed with the Pokmon he raised would abide by the agreement.According to the situation, it is very likely that in the end, he will still have to go down the water himself.

However, the key problem is that there is no third person who can stay on this borrowed boat.If there are no people left behind, it means that the ship will be left unattended, and if there is any trouble, there will be no backup to ask for help.

But this is not to say that Xiaomao is helpless.

The boy leaned against the railing, pondered for a moment, and then took out a baby ball from his pocket.

"Come out, Hu Di."

The bright yellow creature stood quietly in front of its master.

"After a while, this ship will be handed over to you."

"Don't worry, it should be fine."

Xiaomao thought for a while, and added, "If we haven't returned by dawn, you can use super powers to move the ship to the port."

After all, if you don't understand human language, let Hu Di ask for help, so don't expect too much.

Hu Di yelled to show his understanding.

Afterwards, after a period of time spent peacefully with a little uneasiness, Mr. Mao silently packed up his equipment.

After changing into the diving suit, putting on the diving goggles and respirator, and fixing the underwater flashlight on his head, Xiaomao hesitated for a moment, then took out a baby ball from the backpack on the deck with his other hand.

"Please, Blastoise."

Sure enough, it will be more reliable to have a water system by your side when you go into the water.

If it weren't for the stupid beast of a certain idiot who was stupider than its owner, the problem was too great, and Xiao Mao would actually like to speak out and suggest that this guy should come forward as an insurance policy.Drowning or something... you dare to brazenly call yourself a water system?

The world under the sea is quieter than the sleeping city, except for the sound of water filling the eardrums, there is no other movement at all.

With the help of Blastoise, Xiaomao inspected the bottom of the sea for a while, and soon found the traces left by Yemeizi.

This is the result of a certain young master's strong request.

If he hadn't taken into account someone's irrational character of running around, Mr. Mao might not have thought of this.Sometimes, he really wanted to tie a rope around the idiot's neck, in case she was "lucky" to encounter "big adventures" every now and then.

Following the deliberate traces, Xiaomao didn't even need a little reasoning, and immediately understood that this guy didn't go through any brain, and he was looking for it directly by instinct.Because of this, there is no pattern in the traces left behind. They are scrambling here and there, just running where they want to go.

But perhaps because of that incredible instinct, under the guidance of traces, Mr. Mao actually found an inconspicuous cave hidden in the seaweed.

This is……?

Xiaomao frowned suspiciously.

Perhaps this cave is more appropriately described as a crack, the width is only about enough for an adult to barely penetrate.Xiao Ye is probably still in the growing stage, so it is still ample for her.But even so, going inside without hesitation is somewhat mindless.

Mr. Mao sighed resignedly, took out the precious ball and retracted the water arrow turtle - the size of the gap was still too much for the strong water arrow turtle.

From here, he will explore alone in the dark cave where he doesn't know what will happen. The only guide along the way is the sign of Xiaoye. I hope... I hope he won't be fooled by that guy, get involved in some problem and suffer disaster That's good.

Although Mr. Mao couldn't avoid pessimistic thoughts, in fact, his trip to the seabed cave was generally smooth.There were no strange underwater creatures popping out suddenly to harass him, nor did he encounter a labyrinth of Sancha, Sicha, or Ncha to confuse his judgment.As it continued to deepen, the original narrow crack actually became wider and wider, and it was more than enough to turn somersaults inside.

Even, after traveling for an unknown amount of time, Mr. Mao unexpectedly found a kind of algae that could emit light on the rock wall of the cave.And this unknown algae may have suitable living conditions. As he continued to move forward, the distribution on the cave wall became more and more dense.On the last stretch of the road, Xiaomao didn't even need to turn on the diving flashlight, relying on the light source of these algae, he could clearly see the road ahead.

Someone couldn't help wondering: Could it be that that idiot really found a secret place where a treasure was buried?

However, isn't their original purpose to find lost (let's assume this) starfish?Is it okay to be distracted by the treasure in the middle?

Xiaomao's doubts were finally resolved when he reached his final destination.

After passing through a place that seemed to be a hole, the eyes suddenly opened up.

Perhaps it was due to the absence of any rocks above, the cold moonlight penetrating the crystal-clear sea water, making the entire white sand on the seabed glisten.The rippling water waves distort the path of light, interlacing light and shadow, leaving unpredictable and mysterious lines on the white sand.The luminescent algae attached to the rock wall seem to be echoing the moonlight and the breath of the waves, emitting a soft shimmer in the semi-darkness.

The beauty is almost suffocating.

Undersea desert?Or a relic of the moon?This was the first thought that flashed through Xiaomao's mind.

Withdrawing his sigh, he began to carefully observe the surrounding environment.

The first thing that catches the eye is a rock standing abruptly in this strange flat white sand like a fairyland, and then——

A silly little figure.
