Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

She quickly took a few breaths, and after feeling a little more comfortable, she raised her head and glanced at Qiao Ran, but soon her face turned red and she buried her head in the pillow beside her.

"No...are you okay?"

"do not ask me!"

Miyue just wanted to die by smashing herself against the hairy pig. When she thought about what had just happened, she didn't know how to express her emotions at the moment.

Seeing her like this, Qiao Ran could only wait for a while and then asked carefully again.

"...Isn't this Mei's room?"

"Mei's room?"

Mitsuki reacted immediately.

"Who told you this is Mei's room? This is clearly my room..."

She was halfway through her sentence when she finally reacted.

"I see. They must have told you, right? They tricked you into coming here just now, right?"

"This……"

Qiao Ran was also stunned for a moment. This room number was indeed given to him by Mei Yi. He didn't bother to remember everyone's house number, and he didn't doubt the number Mei Yi said.

"So, they actually came into your room and tied you up?"

"do not talk!"

Qiao Ran was hit directly in the face by a pillow.

“They… hum…”

Mitsuki snorted softly. It was obvious that she was very confused, but she still didn't want to say anything wrong about Lillie and Mei.

"..."

Soon, the two of them fell into silence again. No one had expected that the situation would turn out like this.

Before leaving, Lillie told me to cheer up... What kind of cheer was that?

Qiao Ran was so upset that he could not even cry.

You are trying to trick me.

Is there anything else I need to do?

However, Mitsuki is clearly in a bad mood right now. If I do something, will I be pinned to the wall by the sniper tree owl that suddenly appears?

"...Have you showered yet?"

"what?"

Suddenly, Mitsuki on the bed asked.

"Wash...wash?"

Qiao Ran nodded in confusion. He was just about to go to bed, so how could he not have washed?

“…I washed it too.”

"Ah... um."

Qiao Ran responded blankly.

Then the two fell into silence again.

"How about... I just go back like this? They probably just want to play a prank, right?"

Qiao Ran raised his hand to ask a question. Although he said this, sooner or later he would catch the two people who framed him and pin them to the ground.

Even if you want to do something, you should discuss it with him in advance.

Seeing that the other party did not respond, Qiao Ran tiptoed to leave, but at the last moment, the other party still made a sound and stopped his action.

"……Wait!"

"It's okay to chat for a while..."

Chapter 588 [Quite Busy]

No one knew what happened last night. Even Mei and Lillie, whose eyes looked extremely strange early in the morning, could not guess what happened in the room last night.

Finally, during breakfast, Mei and Lillie, unable to bear their own inner anxiety, turned this uneasiness into action. They found an opportunity and dragged Qiao Ran out.

"Um... who are you two..."

"Yeah, you two last night..."

Two pairs of eyes looked in the direction of Qiao Ran, with a hint of uneasiness in their eyes, as if they were expecting and fearing something.

"We talked for a long time yesterday."

Qiao Ran looked at the ground and pondered for half a second.

"That's it?" Mei was stunned.

“…and watched a video for a while.”

"And then?" Lillie was also stunned.

"And then... No, what are you expecting?"

Qiao Ran finally understood. It was definitely not him who was wrong, but these guys...why were they all so weird?

"But according to common sense, when something like this happens, it won't just..."

Mei's suspicious eyes never faded: "You are hiding something from us..."

"What do you mean by directly? It's simply impossible!"

Qiao Ran rolled his eyes. If that really happened then... it seemed not bad, but the problem was that it was simply impossible.

At most, he and Miyue got a little closer last night, just a little bit closer. At least, she didn't seem to reject ordinary contact.

"If it were you, what would you do if it was the situation yesterday?"

"Well."

After hearing this, Lillie and Mei finally came to their senses. They looked at each other, and after a little thought, they shook their heads helplessly.

Mei: "I'll probably... be completely consumed by the humiliation of failure and not want to do anything anymore."

Lillie:

"Being tied up... would be very embarrassing."

For Miyue, taking that step was destined to be a very important node. If that happened in this situation, they would probably rather die by hitting their heads against a hairy pig.

There's no atmosphere, and there's no romance...it's not romantic at all.

"But, Mitsuki should know what we are thinking."

"yes……"

Lillie and Mei couldn't help but sigh. Things had turned out like this and they had no intention of turning back. The shackles of the past were shattered like a broken world. Now they could be with their favorite group of people and do what they liked. It seemed quite interesting.

"You don't have to be so anxious."

Qiao Ran couldn't help but complain.

"And...you called me like that last night...What on earth were you thinking, Mei?"

"Nothing... nothing, hahaha." Mei's face turned slightly red, and she decisively started to play dumb. Lillie's expression also became strange. It was obvious that she was also present when Mei made that call.

As expected...the two of them also did that without me knowing...

No... No, I can't think about it any further.

Liliae decisively stopped herself from thinking about this. She couldn't believe that she actually had negative emotions about such a thing.

Am I... jealous?

No... We clearly agreed that we wouldn't hide things from each other from now on...

————————————————————————————————————————

The conversation between Qiao Ran and the others did not last long. When they returned to the dining table, Meiyue looked at a few people with an understanding look, while Acerola seemed to feel nothing. He took out his mobile phone and talked about the video he saw last night.

"A lot of things in this world are different from the Pokémon world, but there are also quite a few experts studying ghost Pokémon."

"Look at these people, gathering together in the middle of the night to watch Gastly. How strange."

"...And there are only less than thirty ghost Pokémon found in this world. Even Dragonball isn't listed in the Pokédex."

Acerola seemed very excited, and it was obvious that he had watched a lot of videos after returning to his room last night.

Lillie and Mei exchanged a glance, both of them finding Acerola very reassuring.

"Dronelobaruto is probably because it's relatively rare. After all, it's the iconic and powerful Pokémon of the Galar region."

Mitsuki expressed her own opinion. She had also been to the Galar region and asked Yuri there about the matter of Doron Baruto, but the conclusion she got was still a resentful answer like "I can't touch it, don't ask me."

If you want to catch this kind of Pokémon - it probably depends not only on your own strength.

You also need to have very strong luck.

"Oh, by the way, it's been a while since we've been to Galar, and we haven't told Mari and the others about Acerola..."

Listening to their conversation, Qiao Ran seemed to remember something.

"Um...yes..." Lillie nodded as well.

It seems...it's been a while since I last went there.

Especially... after everything that's happened recently.

"Ma Li?"

Acerola also became interested. In fact, these names had been mentioned many times in the previous conversations between Qiao Ran and others, but she had never had the opportunity to see the true faces of these people. Moreover, it seemed to be a very novel experience to be able to visit this unfamiliar land in the Galar region.

She has never left Alola in her life.

"She's an expert in evil attributes and manages a town. You'll know once you meet her."

Qiao Ran said a few simple words, but not too much. The key impression still had to be established by Mary herself. With Mary's unique charm, Acerola would definitely be able to get along well with her.

"As for the rest of the day, let me see... We have to go hiking tomorrow, and today we need to buy some necessary equipment and supplies. Tanabata Bluebird's song is almost finished, and I need her to find time to livestream it... And since the hike will probably take quite a while, we can't stay at the Pokémon Center the whole time. We need to find a hotel to rest for the night, so it's convenient for us to discuss information, and..."

Qiao Ran sorted out the things he needed to do today, and after saying a lot of things, he found that today was indeed quite busy.

From breakfast till night, everything is packed.

"Hey... maybe this is the Pokémon Trainer."

In addition to these, the basic training of Pokémon cannot be neglected. The only thing that makes Qiao Ran feel relieved is that he does not need to worry about most of his Pokémon. Even those outstanding "Legends" will practice on their own.

Chapter 589 [Purchase]

Sometimes, being busy is really beyond our control.

But Qiao Ran doesn't hate this kind of life.

"We don't need that many people to go and buy supplies. I'll stay and take care of the Pokémon this morning."

"Well, I want to see what's going on with them, too."

After yesterday's battle

Mitsuki and Lillie both wanted to spend more time with their Pokémon. They had given their all in yesterday's match, so they should pay more attention to them.

"Then I'll send you to the frontier. It's pretty easy to get out anyway."

Qiao Ran nodded and did not refuse.

"I want to go too." Acerola also raised her hand. She had just joined the team not long ago and was still very curious about the frontier. Since Lillie and Mitsuki both wanted to go there to accompany their Pokémon, she also wanted to go and take a look.

"Then...I'll go too."

Mei saw that something was not right. Everyone present had gone to the frontier, and Qiao Ran had to be present to purchase supplies. If she didn't go with them to the frontier, wouldn't it mean that she had to accompany Qiao Ran in the end?

…If it were before, Mei would definitely not have thought so much, and might even think that this might be a good thing. However, after experiencing so many changes recently, her thinking has begun to change slightly.

If she did that, it would definitely cause disharmony within the team. Furthermore, Meiyue would probably have some issues with both her and Qiao Ran. After all, she and Liliae had just tricked Meiyue last night, and Meiyue hadn't come to settle the score yet.

Therefore, it is better to decisively go to the frontier together.
