Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 220 Don't Bring Girls Home Casually (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Xiaoyou stayed at the manor temporarily. The manor's environment was perfect for her restless and lively nature. In addition to collecting Dynamax battle data from Mingyou, she was also seriously teaching Ralts how to use a computer. The little guy learned very quickly.

Kirlia had been taking care of her sister all along. Although it couldn't understand, seeing Ralts looking so earnest and happy was enough for it.

After their relationship became more familiar, Mingyou reluctantly accepted the nickname "Youyou" that the other person used to call him.

Even the Queen of the Lace Crown deliberately called him that in a teasing way... and Ponpo liked the nickname very much.

Of course, this is the truth he accepts: as long as Ponpo likes it, he can call her whatever he wants.

And just like that, half a month passed in the blink of an eye...

Ralts basically memorized everything Xiaoyou taught it, and Mingyou also bought it many books to deepen its understanding and learn little by little. Even Xiaoyou praised it for being very talented.

The Queen of the Lace was the happiest of all, for a genius programmer was about to be born!

However, Ralts' introverted and socially awkward personality hasn't changed much; it has evolved into a socially awkward homebody. Only when facing its close friends will it inadvertently reveal its true self.

Naruto felt it was alright; Pokémon all have their own personalities, and they are free to do what they like in their preferred environment. But if they wanted to seek change, he would definitely help.

This morning, Xiaoyou was heading back to the Galar region and was packing her bags. During this time, she had collected a lot of data through her battles with Mingyou and planned to hurry back to improve the Max Bracer. She also had some other things to do.

After spending a few days together, she had a good impression of Mingyou, accepted the nickname she gave her, and didn't mind her loud voice.

They were even willing to help collect Dynamax battle data, they're like-minded friends. It's just a pity we didn't meet sooner, otherwise we could have saved a lot of time, but it's not too late now!

Meanwhile, Mingyou was picking watermelons with Ponpon and the others in the vegetable garden in the backyard.

Once the seeds are sown, they will be fully mature in about half a month. What technology or ruthless skills does the Rockets have to compete with his farm in terms of yield?

Mingyou looked at the large watermelon with black and white stripes buried under the melon leaves in the ground...

[Watermelon (B+): This watermelon with blue flesh is full of water and has a unique sweetness. No matter how dry the environment, just one slice can provide hydration for a whole day. Eating it can cleanse the mind, soothe the heart, purify evil thoughts, and allow the whole body and mind to relax and calm down.]

[Additional effect: Consuming this product will enhance your mental state, strengthen your willpower, and keep you calm for two hours.]

"Okay, okay, take all of these!"

"Mmm~"

Since Xiaoyou is leaving today, he plans to give the other party some farm produce as a gift, as Raltras has been very grateful for the other party's care these days.

He and Ponpon and the others carried the heavy watermelon back to the living room and placed it on the floor.

These watermelons are heavier than squash; I should have asked Snorlax to carry them.

"Let's cut one open and try it!"

As he spoke, Mingyou raised his knife and plunged it into the watermelon as if stabbing someone. Then he slashed downwards with force, and blue juice gushed out like a fountain, spraying onto his face.

"It can't be contained... there's too much water!"

"Mmm!"

Ponpo quickly found a basin to catch the water; the manor was almost facing flood relief efforts.

Mingyou wiped his face with a towel, determined not to admit defeat, and was about to go back to cutting this greenhorn when his phone suddenly rang. Immediately, his Rotom phone jumped out of his pocket and floated in front of him.

It was a video call from Xiaozhao. According to the time difference, she had just finished dinner, probably because she had finally finished work and had some free time.

The call connected, and a little fox's face appeared on the screen. Zoroya's face moved back and forth on the screen, then a pair of slender, white arms picked it up, grasped its paws, and gently waved it.

Good evening~

"I'm here this morning, sister."

"Haha, I forgot."

"Mmm~"

Ponpo also came in front of the camera and greeted Zoroya with the small photo that appeared on the screen. Mingyou hugged Ponpo and waved to them: "Are you done with work lately? Or is there something you need to talk to me about?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao pretended to complain slightly: "Can't I chat with you if there's nothing wrong? If you're busy now, I'll talk to you later."

Mingyou smiled calmly at this: "I've been quite free these past few days. Everything at the manor has been taken care of. I plan to go back to Niangguang City in a couple of days."

"To Padiya?"

"Yes, go and tidy up all the things at home. From now on, we'll be living in Beishang Township permanently."

The two chatted as usual. Although they hadn't spoken for almost a month, their relationship hadn't grown distant; on the contrary, they had become even closer.

Just then, Xiaoyou came into the living room with her bag on her back and noticed a watermelon on the floor. Mingyou said he was going to give her a watermelon to take away, so this must be it? Why do the stripes on this watermelon look so similar to those of Martial Arts Bear Master?

Filled with curiosity, she looked at Mingyou, who was video chatting with Xiaozhao not far away, waved and shouted, "Youyou, is this watermelon edible?"

Her voice was as loud and distinctive as ever. Xiao Zhao heard it very clearly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her expression froze.

"long!?"

I hear a strange girl's voice! (Alert)

"Of course, when you cut it open..."

Mingyou was responding, reminding Xiaoyou to be careful when cutting the melon, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange change flashing across Xiaozhao's delicate face on the screen. He snapped back to reality and quickly shouted, "Calm down and listen to my explanation! Don't overthink it!"

He rarely panicked like this, fearing that if he was even a second late in explaining, the other party would misunderstand.

But as soon as she finished speaking, Xiaoyou's panicked shouts came from not far away. Mingyou subconsciously turned around and found that the other person had been sprayed with watermelon while cutting it, and was soaked as if she had fallen into a roadside puddle.

This scene was witnessed by Xiaozhao as Mingyou turned around. Her expression changed accordingly; she closed her eyes, tilted her head slightly, smiled, and murmured, "So you're having a water fight? Then I won't disturb you. Goodnight~ Sweet dreams~ Youyou~"

"Hello!!!"

Don't do that!

Seeing the video call end with Xiao Zhao hanging up, Ming You froze on the spot, standing there like a statue no matter how much Peng Peng pushed him.

Xiao You, soaked to the bone, walked over, munching on a slice of watermelon. She smiled and said, "This watermelon is actually blue, and it's so sweet! It's just too watery. It would probably taste even better if I put it in the freezer... By the way, what's wrong with you?"

"No...it's nothing."

"He fell in love with someone else and got dumped by his girlfriend."

The Queen of the Lace Crown popped her head out at an inopportune moment, and Xiaoyou's expression froze slightly, her eating habits subconsciously stopping: "Uh... well, should I say she deserved it?"

"..."

The joke ended there. After finishing her melon, Xiaoyou took a shower and changed her clothes. She had to catch her flight that night and couldn't stay for too long.

At the bus stop on Beishang Street, Mingyou had seen people off countless times, but Xiaoyou didn't say anything goodbye.

Before getting on the bus, I reminded you: "Be careful about the Max Band. I'll let you know immediately if there are any new developments. Also... thank you for taking care of me these days, and Ralts too."

"Ralu~"

Ralts stood next to Mingyou, raised its head slightly, and waved its little hand at him.

At this moment, the Queen of the Rai Crown put her hands behind her back and said, "I'll leave the game modeling to you. I hope it won't add too much to your workload."

"Hehe, you underestimate me! I have inexhaustible energy!"

Xiaoyou put her hands on her hips and responded with a smile. Then she looked at Mingyou, pointed at her, and shouted, "If you upset your friend, you'd better apologize quickly, or it will be too late to regret it."

"I've already apologized..."

Mingyou gently shook her head. Xiaozhao wasn't the kind of girl who was easily hurt. After explaining things clearly, the other party wouldn't say anything...

Although Xiao Zhao listened with a smile while he called her on the way to apologize and explain, which was a cute expression, it gave him a chilling feeling, which was very scary.

And every time he speaks, he can't stop talking about "youyou" (a sound of being carefree or leisurely). It's really better not to invite people to your home casually... it could kill someone.

After their conversation, Xiaoyou got into the car and left. Watching the bus disappear into the distance, King Raiguan slowly asked, "Are you leaving too?"

"Yes, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow."

Mingyou responded softly that he would be going back to Niangguang City with Pengpeng and the others the day after tomorrow to have a good look around and take care of things at home.

As for the time he was away from home, he planned to have the Crested King take care of it, and the other party hardly hesitated at all, patting its chest happily to say that it was fine to leave it to it, I don't know what it was planning to do.

"Ralu~"

Listening to the conversation, Ralts tugged at Mingyou's pants and meowed softly, it also wanted to go out and play with everyone.

Mingyou crouched down, gently stroking its head, and said, "We need your sister's permission first, but it probably won't feel comfortable with that, will it?"

"Ralu..."

"Don't worry, I'll talk to it for you."

"Ralu~"

Back at the manor from the bus station, Mingyou found Kirlia and mentioned that Ralts would be going to Padia with her in a couple of days.

"Ralu..."

Ralts looked at its sister nervously, while Kirlia calmly looked at it without responding. It took a few steps to its sister, reached out and gently stroked her head, and smiled.

"Nair~"

Since you want to go, then go with everyone, but don't cause Mingyou any trouble!

"Ralu~"

Having obtained her sister's permission for their first outing, Ralts happily hugged Kirlia, then looked at Mingyou and stretched out her hand... Since they wanted to make it convenient to travel together, there was only one way!

"Ralu~"

"Okay, please take care of me from now on~"

Mingyou smiled calmly, exchanged a glance with him, and after obtaining his consent, he took out a Poké Ball. Ralts had already stepped forward, gently touching the ball with its small hand, and then disappeared in a flash of red light.

Successfully captured!
