Pokémon: All About the Breeding House

Chapter 298 Zoroark's Encounters in Twinleaf Town

Zoroark led Zoroark towards Futaba Town. Although they slowed down, they still arrived in Futaba Town in a short time, thanks to Zoroark's travel style.

Standing on the street in Futaba Town, Zoroark noticed that the pedestrians were all looking at it.

Zoroark poked its head out from its mane and saw that all the pedestrians on the road were staring at it and Zoroark, saying something to each other.

Zoroark remembered the misunderstanding the people of Crown City had caused them. It pressed Zoroark back into its mane, its body trembling slightly. However, it still opened the box and checked it. The food inside had not spilled out, so it closed the box with peace of mind.

It took out the map that the dialect had prepared for it, looked at it for a long time, but couldn't understand it.

So it looked up at the Starhawk resting on a rooftop not far away. The Starhawk gestured in a direction with its head, and Zoroya nodded. Then it bent its legs and jumped onto the rooftop.

"."

It jumped onto the roof and was just about to head towards the place the Hawk had pointed out when it heard someone calling it from below.

It looked down and saw an aunt calling to it and waving at it, signaling it to get down.

Zoroark, not understanding what was happening, jumped down.

After seeing Zoroark jump down from the roof, the aunt came to Zoroark's side and said, "You can't do that. You can't run around on the roof like that. It would be bad if something happened."

Zoroark looked at the aunt in front of him and tilted his head.

"You look unfamiliar. Are you a new employee at the animal nursery?"

The aunt asked.

"Do you even need to ask? Its outfit is exactly what the nursery is dressed up in!"

At this moment, others around spoke up.

"Yeah, they're probably new employees, but I've never seen this kind of Pokémon before."

Mook Eagle stood on the roof, silently watching what was happening below.

The words of advice spoken to it in the local dialect echoed in my mind.

"Muk Eagle, take them to see the kindness of the residents of Twinleaf Town, and after you've delivered them, take them to see the cabin."

The Mk Eagle looked at Zoroark, who was surrounded by people and clearly at a loss, pretended not to see the pleading look it was giving it, and lowered its head to preen its feathers.

"What are you doing? They need to make deliveries. By blocking their way, you'll make sure the nursery doesn't take your orders anymore."

The woman probably noticed Zoroark's helplessness, so she waved away the crowd and looked at Zoroark, smiling as she said, "It's alright, they mean no harm. I won't bother you on your delivery. Go on."

The aunt nodded to Zoroark, and Zoroark, who was hiding in his mane, poked his head out.

"Oh, you're also delivering a small order? That must be so tiring."

The aunt saw Zoroya and said in surprise.

"Did the manager of the store pay you extra?"

A voice came from the roadside again: "The shopkeeper in the dialect is so nice, he definitely won't treat them badly."

"Go away, you know everything."

The aunt said something to the trainer who had just spoken.

That's just how it is.

The aunt ignored him, but just looked at Zoroark in its mane, took out a piece of candy from her pocket, tore off the coating, and placed it in front of it.

Zoroark looked at the candy in front of him, glanced at his aunt, and then looked up at Zoroark.

"Oh, it's alright. We always prepare some snacks for the Pokémon that come to Twinleaf Town for delivery. These were originally for Shana, who loves these kinds of candies, but she hasn't been coming over much lately."

Upon hearing Shana's name, Zoroark was somewhat tempted, but it still kept its eyes on Zoroark.

Zoroark nodded to it, and Zoroark instantly snatched the candy from its mouth.

It tastes sweet.

Soroya squinted at the aunt and said, "Thank you."

The aunt was clearly taken aback.

"That's strange. Is it just old age and I'm hallucinating? I just heard it say thank you."

whee.

Soroya covered her mouth and chuckled.

Zoroark glanced at it, and Zoroark quickly hid in its mane.

"Alright, alright, you go ahead and don't keep them waiting."

The aunt shook her head, looked at Zoroark, and said.

Zoroark nodded, then turned and left.

"Don't walk on the rooftops anymore. They're covered in snow and very slippery. Be careful on the road too. Don't rush. Be safe."

His aunt's voice came from behind him, and Zoroark waved his hand without turning around.

After Zoroark left, his aunts and the others dispersed to attend to their own affairs.

"Mom, they're really nice people."

Soroyak nodded in agreement.

They quickly found the first house marked on the map. Zoroark stood in front of the house, checked the map several times, and then looked around for the Starhawk. He found the Starhawk standing on a tree covered with snowflakes.

Zoroark asked it if this was the place, and the Mk Eagle nodded.

This is the place; just go and knock on the door.

Zoroark walked to the door and gently knocked.

Soon, the door opened, and a little boy came out.

The little boy opened the door and found a Pokémon he had never seen before standing there, and a little Pokémon hiding in its fur.

Although he didn't recognize the Pokémon in front of him, he recognized the clothes it was wearing; it was the sign of the place that was delivered from the breeding center.

He turned back and called out towards the back of the house, "Mom, the food's been delivered."

Footsteps sounded, and the woman of the house came running out. Seeing an unfamiliar Pokémon at the door, she asked curiously, "Are you new here?"

Zoroark nodded, then took out the food ordered by the resident from the box.

The woman of the house reached out and took the food, saying, "Thank you for your hard work. Please wait for me a moment."

After saying that, the lady of the house hurriedly went back into the house with the food, while the little boy still stood in the entrance hall looking at Zoroark and Zoroark in front of him.

"You guys are so handsome and cute."

The little boy's eyes were full of stars.

He thought Zoroark was incredibly handsome.

And that Pokémon hiding inside the fur.

They're so cute!

Zoroark gave him a gentle smile.

"Thank you."

A voice suddenly rang in the little boy's mind.

Instantly, his small eyes widened.

"You—you can talk?!"

The little boy swallowed hard and stammered.

Zoroark looked down at Zoroark hiding in his mane, his face full of helplessness.

Zoroark noticed that Zoroark wasn't blaming it, so it boldly started talking to the little boy.

"Yes."

The little boy's face instantly turned bright red. "You, you, you—"

Suddenly he forgot what he was going to say, and finally just asked, "What's your name?"

"I didn't call out."

Soroya tilted his head in response.

"Oh no, I mean, it's—you are—"

The little boy became increasingly agitated, and his speech became more and more incoherent.

Zoroia chuckled mischievously, covering his mouth, before saying, "Hello, my name is Zoroia."

"Zoroa?"

The little boy kept repeating this name, "My name is—"

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

The woman of the house came out at this moment, interrupting the little boy, and handed a pile of snacks to Zoroark at the door.

Zoroark recalled what the aunt had said earlier, that they usually prepare snacks for the Pokémon that are delivered, so Zoroark accepted them without hesitation and put them in the box.

Zoroark nodded his thanks, then pushed open the door and walked out of the house. He said goodbye to the lady of the house and the little boy, and hurried to the next house.

"Zoroa, my name is Xiao Xuan."

The little boy rushed out the door and shouted at Zoroark's retreating figure.

"Thank you, Xiao Xuan, and Xiao Xuan's mother."

Hearing the voice echoing in his mind, Xiao Xuan chuckled foolishly.

A gust of wind blew by, and Xiao Xuan shivered. His mother quickly pulled him back into the house and closed the door.

"You child, how dare you run out dressed like that? What if you catch a cold?"

Xiao Xuan didn't hear his mother's scolding and continued to laugh foolishly.

"I want to find a Zoro Adam to be my partner in the future, and then climb to the top with it."

The woman listened to Xiao Xuan's words and patted her head, "Then you must work hard, so that you can be as good as Manager Fangyan."

"Yes, I will."

Xiao Xuan clenched his fist.

The woman smiled and patted his little head. "Eat your food first. You need to eat well to grow up."

On the way, Zoroark opened the box Zoroark was carrying, picked out two candies, peeled one for himself and popped it into his mouth, then peeled another and put it to Zoroark's lips.

Zoroark took a bite and savored the sweet taste that filled his mouth.

"Damn, the people here don't seem afraid of us."

Because we work in the nursery.

Zoroark answered Zoroark's question gently.

Why?

Soroya did not understand the reason.

Zoroark didn't explain much, only saying, "Because dialect is a good person."

With Mk Eagle nodding in affirmation, they knocked on the door of the second house.

After delivering all the food, the Starhawk took off and flew ahead of Zoroark and Zoroark, turning back to signal them to follow.

Zoroark followed behind Staraptor to the front of a shop. It looked inside and saw Gothic, Roserade, Snorunt, Heracross, and Helios busy at work. It carried its box inside.

"You've arrived?"

The voice echoed in Zoroark's mind. Zoroark looked around and found a red and white figure standing in front of him.

Latias.

So it's been here all along.

No wonder I didn't see it during the day in the nursery.

Miss Goth floated over and handed Zoroark a cup of hot honey water.

Is this food delivery?

Zoroark took the honey water, gave Zoroark two sips, then took two sips itself. It nodded in response to Miss Goth's question.

The people here are very friendly.

Miss Goth laughed.

right?

Zoroark looked around the hut and found that many things here were similar to those in the breeding house, except that there were more bread and other items on the shelves.

Is this also a breeding house?

Miss Goth shook her head.

This isn't a breeding house; it's Miss Goth's Time Capsule, a shop that Fangyan opened for me.

Zoroark was a little confused.

Because I enjoy researching traditional Chinese medicine and herbal tea, he opened a shop for me in Shuangye Town so that I could sell herbal tea, Chinese medicine, and other desserts made by Soap Milk Fairy.

As Zoroark listened to Miss Goth's explanation and watched her greet the guests who had just entered, he suddenly heard laughter coming from the doorway on the wall.

That place is ————

After Miss Gothic paid the bill and saw the guests off, she floated back to the cottage and heard Zoroark's question, discovering that it was referring to the door on the wall.

It floated straight to the door, gently pushed it open, and a group of children appeared in Zoroark's sight.

This is a place where working parents leave their children; in the local dialect, it's called an after-school care center.

After-school care?

Miss Goth nodded, walked through the doorway, and came into the middle of the children, where she was instantly surrounded by a group of them.

"Miss Goth, are you done with your work?"

"Miss Goth, shall we go play on the seesaw together?"

"Miss Gothic————"

After playing with them for a while with a smile, Miss Gothic looked at Zoroark.

This is a place for children to make friends and do their homework, so they don't have to stay at home alone and can make more friends.

Zoroya looked at Miss Gothia. "Can I play with them?"

Miss Goth nodded.

Soroya leaped out of its mane, and a group of children watched it until it reached a seesaw and called out to the children.

All the children gathered around, and it didn't take long for Zorua to become one of them.

This kind of life doesn't seem so bad.

Zoroark said this as he listened to the laughter coming from the group of human children and Zoroark.

Why not stay and live here?

Zoroark looked at Miss Goth.

He hesitated.

But Miss Gothic didn't say anything more, and instead floated back to the cabin to entertain the new guests.

By the way, if you have time, could you help pick up Shana from school?

Zoroark nodded in response to Miss Goth's question.

After helping out at the cabin for a while, and with Miss Gothic's reminder, Zoroark headed towards the school after Zoroark jumped into the mane.

Since the school wasn't far from the cabin, Zoroark could find the place on his own without Starhawk leading the way.

Zoroark stood at the school gate. The parents at the gate were stunned for a moment when they saw Zoroark, but they quickly realized what was happening.

Because Pokémon often come to the nursery to pick up and drop off the children, but in the past it was always Gothicourt and Roserade, but today it was a new Pokémon.

But judging from its attire, you can tell it's a Pokémon from the nursery.

Zoroark curiously surveyed the school, and Zoroark, hiding in his mane, also curiously observed the school.

"Zoroark, Zoroark, are you here to pick me up?"

Shana's voice rang out, and Zoroark looked at Shana, then nodded gently.

It really likes the mischievous little girl in the nursery.

This reminded it of its childhood.

After saying goodbye to Tomoyo, Shana ran to Zoroark's side.

"Zorua, you've come too."

"Yes, Zoroya is here to pick up Shana from school."

"You can't call me Little Shana, okay? Only uncles and the others can call me Little Shana. You're even younger than me."

"Shana?"

"Sister Shana!"
