Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 180 Shana Delivers Milk and Her School Experiences (4000 words)

After breakfast, Fang Yan went to the backyard and watched as Lance put on his cape and stood next to Dragonite.

"Is the holiday over?"

Watari nodded. "The alliance urged me yesterday, so I have to go back."

"Being a champion isn't easy."

Du sighed.

Who said it's easy to be the champion of Carlos and the Unova region?

Fang Yan thought to himself, but he didn't say it aloud.

Instead, he said normally, "Fight evil well, Mr. Wataru, who has a strong sense of justice."

Lance smiled and waved, preparing to ride the Dragonite.

"Uncle Watari, please come again next time!"

Shana said crisply.

Du bent down and pinched her cheek.

He's grown quite fond of Shana after spending the last few days with her; she's a cute, obedient, and sensible little girl—who wouldn't like her?

"I'll come when I have time."

Shana gave a strong "hmm".

Then she took out a rag doll, "This is for you."

Fang Yan was a little surprised, because Shana had never given away her dolls.

It seems Shana really likes Wataru.

I never expected that Watari, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be so popular with children.

Wataru took it and examined it closely; it was a small Dragonite plush toy.

They're quite cute.

Du smiled happily, "Thank you, I'll bring you an even bigger and prettier one next time I come."

It's a deal.

Shana extended her little finger.

Du extended his little finger and made a pinky promise with her.

"Then we look forward to your next visit."

Fang Yan stepped forward and, taking advantage of Dragonite's inattention, patted its big belly.

duangduang~

It feels great in the hand!

As expected of a large one, it feels great to the touch.

Dragonite was still eating the treats Gengar had given it when it was suddenly attacked by dialect.

Dragonite: ?!

I'll let it slide since you're Gengar's trainer.

Gengar floated over and handed a small backpack to Dragonite. Dragonite threw all the snacks in its hand into its mouth, then took the backpack and opened it to take a look.

Several jars of snacks were lying inside.

! ! ! !

He quickly tightened his backpack and looked at Gengar.

Good buddy, you really are a good buddy.

After bumping bellies with Gengar, Dragonite put its backpack on its back, then let Lance ride on it and flew away into the distance.

"Alright, even though the guests have left, our work can't stop. It's time to go milk the cows."

"I'll go get the bucket."

Shana ran off with a clattering sound.

The bell rang, and it skipped and hopped along behind.

After milking the fresh cows, the local dialect describes heating the milk and then filling bottles one by one.

Shana was already fully prepared and ready to go at the counter.

Today it's not a yellow hat, it's a red hat.

Fang Yan made a set of clothes for Shana based on the platelet's outfit.

Sure enough, it's incredibly cute.

Gengar pressed its large cheek tightly against Shana's small face.

"Kou Jie~"

How can little Shana be so cute?!

Shana giggled and reached out to hug Gengar.

In the end, it was only after Miss Gothic threw Gengar away that Shana regained her freedom.

"Shana, could you please deliver the fresh milk to the school today? It's the first time the school is delivering fresh milk, so I'm thinking of having you go. As for Grandpa and Grandma, I'll go."

Fang Yan, carrying the fresh milk, looked at Shana and asked, "Is this okay?"

"Um."

Shana nodded and gave a cute "hmm".

Fang Yan hung the milk on the Rapidash, then lifted Shana onto the Rapidash.

"Muckeagle will guide you to the school. When you get to the school, just tell the security guard you're looking for Principal Sachi. I've already spoken to him beforehand. If anything happens, just call me, okay?"

Fang Yan hung a telephone around her neck with a rope.

"Um."

Shana nodded.

Fang Yan gently pinched her little nose and said with a smile, "Then the school's children will depend on you."

Shana nodded again and said, "Don't worry, Uncle, Rapidash, let's go."

Watching Shana's departing figure, Fang Yan sighed.

"Hopefully, after Shana visits the school, she'll feel like going to school."

The Fujino couple, who were standing nearby, also sighed silently.

They had discussed it with Shana a few days ago, asking her if she wanted to go back to school.

Shana shook her head.

She still remembered how her classmates bullied her when she was sick, so she didn't want to go back to school.

She wanted to stay in the nursery to play with the animals and help her uncle take care of the nursery.

Seeing this, Fang Yan and the others didn't dare to force her. After all, going back to school had left a very bad impression on her. If they forced her to go back and see those friends, it might trigger bad memories in her. Therefore, Fang Yan could only ask her to help deliver milk to the school, hoping it might rekindle her desire to go back to school.

Fang Yan greeted the Fujino couple, indicating that they shouldn't worry, and asked them to look after the breeding shed. Then, Fang Yan put another portion of fresh milk on his goat mount, mounted it, and headed towards Futaba Town.

Today, he's delivering the fresh milk ordered by the grandparents.

With the goat as a mount, I no longer need to walk or borrow Shana's Flame Horse to get to Twinleaf Town.

Riding a goat is a completely different experience from riding a fiery horse. The fiery horse is mainly fast, while the goat is slower, but it is more comfortable.

At this moment, Fang Yan was lazily riding on his goat mount, swaying leisurely towards Shuangye Town.

By this time, Shana had already arrived at the school riding her fiery horse, following the guidance of the Starhawk. Shana quickly climbed off the fiery horse.

The Mk Eagle perched on a tree at the school, preening its feathers while keeping an eye on Shana.

Shana, carrying a small crossbody bag, arrived at the guardhouse and knocked on the door.

The security guard opened the door and saw a little girl, looking somewhat puzzled.

"You've been here for so long, why are you only just arriving at school?"

Shana shook her head. "Hello, Uncle Gatekeeper, I'm not here to go to school. I'm here to deliver fresh milk. Could you please contact Principal Sachi for me? Our store manager said he made an appointment with him in advance."

After hearing Shana's words, the gatekeeper glanced at the heterochromatic blazing horse and, seeing the milk on its back, finally believed Shana's words. He then returned to the guardhouse and made a phone call to Principal Sachi.

A few minutes later, the doorman reappeared in front of Shana.

"Principal Sachi asked if it would be alright for you to bring the milk in."

Shana nodded. "Okay."

After saying that, he ran back to the Flaming Horse and quickly climbed back up.

The gatekeeper opened the gate and let her ride the fiery horse inside.

Shana walked into the campus and found that this school was different from the school she used to attend.

Some students even have Pokémon. At this moment, a class is having a physical education class.

Shana heard their laughter and watched them with curiosity.

Why are they having so much fun?

Looking back on her school days, Shana felt a little confused.

The bell on her shoulder seemed to sense that its owner was in a bad mood. It shook its body and made a pleasant sound, comforting Shana.

Shana snapped out of her daze and patted the little head where the bell rang.

"Thank you, Doraemon."

Shana said softly.

When the children saw Shana riding the fiery horse, they all quieted down and stared intently at Shana and the horse.

Suddenly, one of the bolder girls spoke up and asked, "Is this your Rapidash? It's so cool!"

Shana immediately broke into a big smile.

"Yeah, it's my good friend, isn't it cool? And it has Doraemon, isn't it cute?"

When the little girl saw Shana smile at her, her face flushed instantly.

He lowered his head and nodded.

"Can I touch it?"

Shana said, "Okay, but you'll have to wait a bit. I need to go and deliver the fresh milk to Principal Sachi first."

"Me too!" "Me too!" ————

Instantly, all the children around said they wanted one too.

Shana kept saying "okay" until finally she couldn't take it anymore and shouted it out.

"If anyone makes any more noise, I won't let them touch me!"

The surroundings fell silent instantly.

Shana finally relaxed her tense little face. "I'll come back after I deliver the fresh milk so you can pet the Flaming Horse. Until then, everyone be quiet."

The children kept nodding.

After that, Shana rode her fiery steed quickly toward Principal Sachi.

After a while, the teacher returned and found the group of children silent, and wondered if something had happened.

She came over to ask, but still no one answered her.

As a newly hired teacher, she thought she had done something wrong. She asked many times but no one answered her, which almost made her cry.

Finally, the little girl who spoke first explained the reason to her, and only then did she feel relieved.

Looking at the children with their tense little faces and not saying a word, she felt both amused and exasperated.

Shana approached Principal Sachi, dismounted from her fiery horse, took the list out of her small crossbody bag, and handed it to him.

"Here's the list; the fresh milk is all over there."

Shana had the fiery horse come forward and had Principal Sachi count the fresh milk.

A hog took the fresh milk, and Principal Sachi nodded.

"Thank you for your hard work, little Shana."

Shana opened the Gengar water cup that Fangyan had prepared for her, took two sips of honey water, and shook her head.

"This is Shana's job. Oh, and Uncle Principal, can I go and play with the other children?"

Hearing Shana, who was still a child, say that the group of children were children, Principal Sachi couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay, Shana can go if she wants to."

"Yes, thank you, Uncle Principal. Goodbye, Uncle Principal."

Shana nimbly climbed onto the fiery horse, and with the bells ringing, returned to the spot where she had been.

As soon as they returned to where they had been, Shana and the Flame Horse were surrounded.

"Don't be afraid, I'll make sure the fiery horse doesn't burn you, you can touch it."

The little girl reached out and touched the fiery horse, finding that it wasn't hot at all, but rather warm.

Then more and more little hands began to be placed on the Flaming Horse.

"Why is this fiery horse different from the ones I've seen before? Why are the flames this color?"

"Because it sparkles."

"flash?"

"My uncle said that a flashy one is only one in a lot of them."

"That means it's very rare, right?"

"Who is Uncle?"

"Uncle is indeed uncle, the manager of the nursery, the uncle with the dialect."

At noon, Shana rode her fiery horse out of the school.

She looked for the Starhawk but couldn't find it.

"That's strange, did it go back first?"

Shana shook her head and continued walking forward, only to find a familiar figure ahead, with a purple Pokémon floating in the air beside her, and a Staraptor.

"uncle."

The fiery horse sped up and arrived beside Fang Yan.

Fang Yan rode on his goat mount, smiling as he looked at Shana, and led her toward the breeding shed.

"When did Uncle arrive?"

"I just arrived not long ago, and I just finished delivering milk to Grandpa and Grandma. Uncle only realized how tiring it is to deliver fresh milk. Our little Shana really had a hard time before."

"Shana doesn't feel tired at all, Shana is amazing."

"Hahaha, yes, our little Shana is amazing."

"You agree, Gengar."

"Kou Jie~"

"I thought you had already delivered the fresh milk and gone back. If it weren't for Staraptor still being here, I would have taken Gengar back with me."

"No, you have to wait for Shana to go back together."

"I've been waiting, how's school?"

"Hmm—that's good. These kids are quite cute. They said they wanted to pet the Rapidash, so after I delivered the fresh milk, I let them pet it for a while, and then I played with them for a bit."

"Does Nasana like playing with them?"

"Hmm—I don't dislike playing with them."

"So that means you like him?"

"I don't like it either."

"Shana is clearly still a child, yet she calls her a child."

"This is different."

"What's different?"

"Different is different."

"uncle."

After a while, Shana spoke again.

"What's wrong?"

"Can you really have this much fun with your friends from school?"

Fang Yan thought for a moment, then said, "Of course, because the kids at school are all adorable, they love making friends, and they don't need to think about things like adults do. They just need to study and play."

"Then why weren't Shana's classmates like that back then?"

He paused for a moment, then said with a smile, "Because..."

"They're big bad guys!"

"Yes, they are the biggest bad guys! The biggest bad guys ever!"

Shana clenched her fists and said fiercely.

"Uncle, do you like your time at school?"

Fang Yan recalled her school days in her previous life. Although she hated going to school, those days were the most memorable for her.

Playing and fooling around with friends, blushing when seeing a girl he likes, trying to look cool in front of her, relentlessly harassing his best buddy, and so on—

"Of course, that period was my favorite time."

"Of course, the days I spend with Shana and Gengar are my favorite days right now."

"uncle."

"What's wrong?"

"Can Shana go to school too?"

"Of course."

A while later.

"uncle."

"uh-huh?"

"The time Shana spends with her uncle and Gengar is also Shana's favorite time."

"Really? We're honored."

Where's Gengar?

"Kou Jie~"

Me too~

"uncle."

"I'm here."
