Not a Trainer This Time

Chapter 600 Changes over time

On January 9, 203 in the Alliance Calendar, with the arrival of spring, the temperature in northwest Padia began to gradually warm up.

People took off their thick winter clothes and put on light coats, walked with their Pokémon in the mountains and forests, and started a new journey.

The heroic expedition team composed of Dream, Lightning Bird, Baby Bear, and Victini also officially set off. This time, their destination is the Kalos region.

As Qishu's body recovered, she began to serve as the gym leader again at Niangguang Gym.

Naoki stayed in the ranch, continuing to do his job and taking care of the children.

However, with the professionally trained and caring siblings around, he didn't need to worry too much.

In addition, Xiaoshu sleeps twenty of the twenty-four hours a day. To Naoki, everything seems to be the same as before.

The three holy beasts followed the instructions of King Ho to take care of the future Rainbow Heroes. With them and Pokémon such as Baboo and Kuailong around, Naoki didn't have to worry about the little tree being in danger.

Recently, he had heard a lot about the great changes in Zhiqin Town. Therefore, after finishing the work at the ranch, Zhi Shu took Gu Lerton into the city and strolled through the streets of Zhiqin Town. In the alley.

In the new year, many changes have taken place in Zhiqin Town.

There are many construction sites under construction in the town. Workers wearing yellow safety helmets and Pokémon such as Wei Li and old construction craftsmen are knocking on the construction sites to build new high-rise buildings.

Continuing forward, Zhi Shu came to the place where Ziqin Market is located.

The original Zhiqin Market was like a vegetable market with a greenhouse. Now the greenhouses around the market have been renovated and rebuilt, and the scale has been expanded many times, and it has become a very powerful supermarket.

Their town was developing rapidly. Naoki stopped to look at it for a while, then continued walking forward.

He passed by many places, and finally came to the seaside of Zhiqin Town without knowing it, and saw the port wharf under construction that Keli mentioned.

Workers used cranes to transfer construction materials into the sea for the construction of the lighthouse, and several ships docked not far from the coast.

Although the port is under construction, Zhi Shu can already foresee that in the near future, ferries carrying goods from all over the world will dock at this port and then be transported to Ziqin Market for sale.

Ziqin Town, which is very developed in commerce, agriculture and animal husbandry, will definitely become an important economic center in the Padia region.

Naoki was filled with emotion, but one thing was good. When the time came, they wouldn't have to go to other areas so much trouble and could just take a cruise ship at the port here.

After visiting the changes in the town, Naoki rode Guluton back to the ranch.

He first went to the room to take a look at Xiaoshu, and saw that she and the Burning Bug were sleeping soundly together, so he did not disturb them, but quietly walked out of the room and closed the door.

There were not many Pokémon in the living room. Kuailong went out to deliver goods, Baboo took Meltan to work in the chicken hut, and Frosty Milk Fairy also went to play on the grass outside.

Naoki originally wanted to check on Fairy Ibrahimovic's special training, but at this moment, a video call came in.

It's Dr. Olin!

Naoki pressed answer, and Dr. Olin's face appeared on the screen.

There was still a smile on her heroic face: "Long time no see, Naoki! I'm sorry, I've been busy doing research some time ago and couldn't send you my blessings in time."

"It's okay, doctor." Naoki shook his head nonchalantly.

Dr. Olin smiled softly, and then asked: "How is your child? Is it a boy or a girl?"

"It's a girl. She has just turned one month old and is sleeping in bed now!" Naoki replied.

"That's great. Congratulations. From now on, you will be a parent like us." Dr. Olin said with a smile.

Naoki also has a child of his own, and their research has made new progress. Dr. Olin feels that everything is developing for the better.

Perhaps the smile on Naoki's face reminded her of the time when she gave birth to Pipa, and Dr. Olin was filled with emotion.

Then, she thought that she and her husband had been obsessed with experiments over the years and had not been with the child to help him grow up, and Dr. Olin felt very guilty.

"I wonder how the child Piper is doing now." Dr. Olin couldn't help but say.

"Huh? Hasn't the doctor contacted Pipa recently?" Naoki was a little surprised.

Speaking of this matter, Dr. Olin felt very distressed: "Since the child has grown up, he has become more and more independent. Now he hardly takes the initiative to contact us. I can only inquire from the principal of the college. Check out his latest news.”

Naoki: "..."

Calculating his age carefully, Pipa is now thirteen or fourteen years old. He is in adolescence. Coupled with family reasons, he is likely to become autistic.

If this continues, Pipa is likely to become the taciturn, withdrawn and sensitive Pipa in the game again.

And the reason for all this is due to Pipa's long-term lack of care.

"I will help contact Pipa later and invite him to the ranch as a guest." Zhi Shu said, the only thing he could do was to cook a meal for Pipa.

"Then I'll trouble you." Dr. Olin thanked him. In fact, both she and Futu were very grateful to Naoki.

Because Naoki has taken great care of Pipa over the years.

"Well, when the research on Paradox Pokémon is over, Futu and I will leave Area 0 and return to the ground. At that time, we will go to the ranch to visit you with Pipa!" Dr. Olin He sighed and then said.

Naoki Shin said that it would be too late by then, because by that time, Pipa's character had been set and it was difficult to change.

But for Dr. Olin, it was impossible for her to abandon the experiments in the Padia Crater and return to land.

Thinking of this, Naoki didn't know what to do for a while.

"Huh, let's not talk about this topic anymore. Where is Guluton? Is Guluton still good?" Dr. Olin asked again.

"Gulton!" Naoki shouted, and soon, Gulton ran in from outside and put his big head close to the screen.

"Ah gah?"

"It's so energetic!" A smile appeared on Dr. Olin's face: "Every time I see Guluton living with you, I feel full of motivation for research. Maybe one day, Pokémon from the past and future Really able to live among us like the current Pokémon."

After hanging up the phone, Naoki thought for a while, took out his Rotom phone and invited Pipa to come over to the ranch as a guest.

[King Wing: Hello Pipa, how have you been lately? Would you like to spend a day at the ranch? 】

Padia College, Orange College, Pipa heard the sound of Rotom's cell phone and picked up the phone to take a look.

[Piper: I'm very sorry, Mr. Naoki, there's something going on at the academy, and I can't leave. 】

At first, Pipa was reluctant to come because he didn't want to disturb Mr. Naoki's life.

But soon, he received another message.

[King Yi: Huh? My child was born, and I originally wanted to invite you to come and take a look at her...]

Pipa was stunned when he saw this news.

Mr. Naoki’s child was born?

Then there's something wrong with him not going to see if it's okay...

Pipa thought for a moment and finally decided to go visit Mr. Naoki.

[Piper: Congratulations, Mr. Naoki, I will probably have time tomorrow, and I will go over to visit you then! 】【King Yi: Do you want Kuailong to pick you up? 】

Why did Pipa have the nerve to bother others? He quickly replied: [No, no, there is a Angry Parrot Flying Taxi in Zuotai City that goes directly to Zhiqin Town. I can just take the taxi! 】

[King Yi: Then I’ll be waiting for you in the ranch! 】

After the communication ended, Piper breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a voice full of energy came from behind.

"Pipa, let's have a Pokémon battle!"

Hearing the voice of the person coming, Piper turned around and saw Nemo in college uniform looking at him with fighting spirit.

Nemo just entered school this year, because the two met at Zhishu Ranch when they were children. She recognized Pipa at a glance, so she rushed over to challenge him. After going back and forth, the two became friends.

It's just that Piper doesn't like Pokémon battles very much. He shook his head and said, "Forget it this time. I'm going to visit Mr. Naoki tomorrow. His child is born."

When Nimo heard this, she immediately became excited: "Mr. Naoki's child was born?! I want to go too!"

She was going to see Mr. Naoki’s child, and then have an exciting Pokémon battle with Mr. Naoki!

It’s exciting just thinking about it!

Piper: "..."

"I have to ask Mr. Naoki about this," Piper said.

Hearing that Nemo was going to visit the ranch with Pipa, Naoki was naturally very welcoming. He immediately responded and said that he would prepare delicious food to entertain them.

"Yeah!" Nemo immediately celebrated.

Piper: "..."

So early the next morning, the two took the Angry Parrot flying taxi from Zuotai City to Zhiqin Town.

Nemo didn't have the airs of a young lady at all. She kept chattering along the way. She hadn't decided which trial she wanted to challenge yet.

Piper occasionally replied, but mostly said nothing.

The Angyingge flying taxi took off all the way, and finally arrived at the taxi station in Zhiqin Town at 9 a.m.

The two got out of the car and went straight to Zhishu Ranch.

When they arrived at their destination, Naoki was loading the fruits picked from the fruit trees into the back of a pickup truck.

Seeing Naoki, Nemo immediately opened her eyes wide and shouted excitedly: "Mr. Naoki, let's have a Pokémon battle!"

"As soon as I heard that voice, I knew it was you, Nemo." Naoki looked at the two of them with a smile, and then said, "Wait while I carry all the fruits to the car!"

A dessert shop in Zhiqin Town ordered a batch of tree fruits from him yesterday to make energy cubes, so Naoki had to deliver them to the customers before noon.

Upon hearing this, Nimo immediately raised her hands: "Then I'll help too!"

Naoki wanted to say that berries are very heavy, but before he could say anything, he saw Nemo carrying a box of berries and running to the car.

Naoki and Pipa: "..."

She doesn't look like a wealthy lady at all!

"I'm here to help too!" Piper said.

With the combined help of the two, the carriage was quickly filled.

His younger sister, Tuanshi, was taking care of Xiaoshu, and his brother, Tuanshi, was doing housework. Naoki asked Guileton to bring two bottles of drinks to quench the thirst of Pipa and Nemo.

"You guys take a rest in the pasture first, and I'll deliver this cart of fruit to the town. I'll be back soon."

"Okay!" Nemo responded.

"Pipa, feel free to play here!" Zhi Shu smiled, then got into the car with Gu Ledun, started the car and headed to Zhiqin Town.

It took about forty minutes for Naoki to finish delivering the goods.

When he returned to the ranch, Piper and Nemo were watching the Ecuadores playing hide and seek.

"Have you seen the baby yet?" Naoki got out of the car and asked from a distance.

The two people turned around when they heard the noise, and Nimo nodded vigorously: "Yes! She has fallen asleep! The baby is so cute! Does she have a name?"

"Yes, her name is Xiaoshu." Naoki smiled and nodded.

"Xiaoshu...Xiaoshu..." Nemo repeated twice: "What a cute name, Mr. Naoki. When Xiaoshu grows up, let her fight with me!"

"Of course." Naoki Shin said this was very Nimo.

"Then now, I want to challenge you!" Nemo took out an elf ball.

Five minutes later, Nemo's scaled dragon fell to the ground after a move from the Motorized Lizard.

"So strong! As expected of Mr. Naoki!" Nimo was very excited.

Naoki smiled and invited: "Go and have a rest in the living room!"

The three of them returned to the living room, and the elder brother poured two cups of black tea for the two guests.

Seeing Nemo and Pipa coming together, Naoki was very curious: "Has Nemo started going to school too?"

"That's right!" Nemo nodded: "Hey, I met Pipa on the first day I arrived at school!"

"Nemo started a Pokémon battle with me as soon as we met, which shocked the Mastiff Godfather and me," Piper recalled.

Hearing this, Naoki was a little surprised. He remembered that Nemo and Pipa didn't know each other at the beginning of the game.

Is it because of him that the two of them met in advance and became friends?

In this way, only Mudan and the protagonist of the game Xiaoqing or Xiaochun are left in the Zhuzi group.

Naoki remembered that Nemo had already become the champion when the plot of the game took place, and she was about fifteen years old at that time.

And now Nemo has just entered school and has not yet become a champion.

"So, there are only about five years left before the game plot takes place?" Naoki thought silently in his heart.

He once vaguely reminded Dr. Olin of the disaster that would happen in the future, and he wondered if the fate of the two doctors would change because of his appearance.

If that had changed, everything would have been happy and Piper wouldn't have lost his parents.

But if there is no change, it means that Dr. Olin and Dr. Fotu will still lose their lives in the Padian Pit, and Zhuzi's plot will be staged again.
