Why is my Pokémon acting a little weird?

The truth is - he is too tired.

The reason for this tiredness was not because he did a lot of things, but simply because he did not get enough sleep. Once upon a time, he was a good boy who slept eight hours a day. How did he become like this?

When exactly?

——What, it started the day before yesterday?

That's fine.

"Pillow...pillow..."

After returning to his room, Qiao Ran lay down on the bed.

However, before taking a break, he called Rotom out.

"Rotom, please help me edit yesterday's video and upload it online."

"Well...so sleepy."

Qiao Ran couldn't help but yawn, and soon fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Only Rotom, floating in the air, was left watching in bewilderment.

Why is the master so tired?

——What on earth happened?

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

When Qiao Ran woke up again, he was actually woken up by a noisy phone call.

The voice coming from the other end of the phone was the director of the previous battle against the train.

"Brother Qiao, our film has passed!"

"It will be broadcast on Magic City TV in a few days!"

There was obvious excitement in his voice. His program had finally been broadcast on TV. How could he not be happy?

"congratulations."

Qiao Ran also smiled slightly. Not only could he get the bonus, but he could also appear on TV. For him, this was a sure-win deal.

The most important thing is that he found Lila, a hidden gem, on the train. If he hadn't had this opportunity, he wouldn't know how long he would have to wait to find her.

"By the way, Brother Qiao, I also saw the video you posted earlier. It can also build momentum for our show, haha. If possible..."

The director's voice suddenly became strange, but Qiao Ran clearly understood what he meant.

"Of course we can create hype, but it's very troublesome for me to edit the video... and it's been a while since it was posted."

"It's okay. It was only posted a few minutes ago. There's still time to undo it. Furthermore, if you want to remake the video, we'll provide a little help. Whatever price you'd like, Brother Qiao, we can negotiate. We just hope you can help us promote it... After all, our show just started, and we don't have enough popularity, hahahaha."

"Well..."

Speaking of help, Qiao Ran suddenly became excited. He had been making videos for so long, and now he could finally eat for the first time?

And the meal was actually delivered by himself.

It just so happened that Qixi Bluebird wanted to buy the arrangement of a new song, so I had to eat a lot of food. Otherwise, the next time I take them out shopping, I won't even be able to afford a little dress.

"Don't worry, Director. As long as you have no worries, we will definitely help you with all our strength."

Qiao Ran really wasn't sleepy at all.

Only Rotom, who was floating nearby and resting after finishing editing a video, watched the scene speechlessly.

"..."

So he becomes the director?

Is this the power of money?

Chapter 549 [Rest]

"So please, Rotom."

After finishing the call, Qiao Ran turned his attention directly to Rotom on the other side. Now that he had finally received an order to make a living, he naturally had to make it well.

And Rotom is his only hope.

"But I'm so tired, Loto. I don't want to move at all, Loto..."

Seeing Qiao Ran like this, Rotom immediately took the initiative and started complaining on the spot. She was treated as a tool every day. Even if she was a tool, she would resist!

"What do you want? I'll get it for you?"

Qiao Ran wanted to give Rotom some gifts to comfort her, but Rotom didn't eat and didn't have a physical body. Even if Qiao Ran wanted to give her a gift, he couldn't do it. It was impossible for him to help her get some wind power, hydropower, solar power or the like, right?

"Hmm... I don't know what I want, Lotor."

Rotom thought for a while, but found that he had no answer.

"How about giving me a massage, Loto?"

In the end, Rotom had no choice but to let Qiao Ran use the power of Viridian to give him a massage. However, during this process, Qiao Ran found that compared with other Pokémon, Rotom was obviously much calmer.

He even seemed calmer than Lillie and other transformed humans.

"Is this because you have no physical body?"

"That might be the case, Loto."

Rotom herself seemed confused. Even though other Pokémon liked something very much, she couldn't feel any joy from it. Although the recovery effect still existed, in some ways, the core effect of Viridian Power was completely ineffective.

"Hey, why can't you turn into a human?"

Qiao Ran grabbed Rotom in her hand and touched her screen.

This machine body probably doesn't have the same touch as the flesh.

"..."

"..."

"Maybe... if there are more Pokémon in the frontier, we can achieve Lotor."

"Really?"

Hearing the sudden sound from Rotom, Qiao Ran couldn't help but get up from the bed and asked.

"...Of course I guessed it was Loto."

Rotom took the opportunity to break free from Qiao Ran's clutches and flew into the air.

"I'm just the system spirit Lotor, the Lotor who doesn't understand these things."

"Okay, okay, I know, I know, I'm just asking."

Qiao Ran could only sigh, feeling both amused and helpless. However, deep down, he was still looking forward to that day.

What kind of girl will this Rotom become?

--------------------------------

While Lillie and the others were still training outside, Qiao Ran went to the frontier to accompany his Pokémon. Although Qiao Ran met with them every day, with more and more things to do now, there were fewer and fewer days when he could just lie on the grass and bask in the sun with them without thinking about anything.

Although Reshiram on the side was emitting a slight heat all over his body, with the breeze of Suicune and the coolness of Vulpix, the surrounding environment was not that bad. Moreover, when winter came, Reshiram would definitely be more comfortable.

Qiao Ran lay on the grass and fell asleep again. This time no one came to disturb him. After all, he was in the frontier, and the radio waves from the real world could no longer affect him.

Thanks to this, Qiao Ran rested all the way until noon before gradually waking up.

"Are you already cooking?"

"Ah."

Qiao Ran, rubbing his eyes, saw Suicune and the others making a fire and cooking by the river. After eating too much food from the human world, the Pokémon naturally would not stick to the original Pokémon food. Moreover, even if they couldn't eat ready-made food, they could make it themselves.

Some ingredients not available in the frontier could also be bought by Qiao Ran from outside. As for the farming within the frontier, Diancie and Suicune were actually doing it as well. With reference to the successful experience of Spike Town, everything was going very smoothly.

Speaking of the fire here, at the beginning they even thought about using the diamonds that Diancie could produce infinitely as firewood. Although it was not very realistic, it was still a possibility to try. In the end, it was the joining of Reshiram that alleviated the crisis.

The so-called real fire can be ignited with just an actual object, so cooking will not be so troublesome in the future.

"Would the master like to stay and have dinner with us?"

Latias floated to Qiao Ran's side and asked Qiao Ran's opinion.

See, if they stay, it doesn't matter if they do a little more.

"of course."

Qiao Ran naturally nodded in agreement. As for Lillie and the others... let's talk about it after they come back.

————————————————————————

The girls basically spent the entire day training, while Qiao Ran had a good time playing with the Pokémon. Normally, in addition to daily training, they would usually spend more time on things that interest them.

Of course - Qiao Ran rejected all entertainment activities that used the power of Evergreen. This thing was not meant to be used now.

"Eh... I thought it was okay... just a little bit..."

Xuwuide, who was very idle, smacked her lips. Unlike Diancie and Suicune who had something to do, she enjoyed hanging around Qiao Ran today. Especially when she looked at Qiao Ran, there seemed to be a hint of mystery in her eyes.

"I've been feeling so weird these past two nights... I don't know why it's like this..."

"Eh?"

Qiao Ran, who was originally leaning on Cang Xiang's back looking at the sky, was so scared when he heard this that he almost jumped up from the grass.

"What did you say? These past two nights?"

"I don't know either. Master, could you please tell me alone?"

"This……"

Beads of sweat appeared on Qiao Ran's head. Considering the special time, plus Xu Wuide's hint, wait, could this... be related to the previous experience of parasitizing Lillie?

She actually feels something?

It’s over, this is a complete blind spot in knowledge!

If we reason based on this situation, would those Xuwuyides who have parasitized other girls also have similar problems?

"Master, you actually owe me one more time."

Xuwu Yide brought the face that looked 70% similar to Lillie in front of Qiao Ran, but Lillie did not have her slightly curly white hair and dangerous and natural personality.

"Um... let's talk about it next time I have time. Yes, let's talk about it next time."

Qiao Ran naturally still remembered the "once" that Xuwuide mentioned - it seemed to be the time when he helped transform Acerola, and a complete set of Evergreen Power services was also a negotiated condition.

However, after listening to what Xu Wuyide had said before, Qiao Ran became cautious.

Facing Xuwuyide's murderous gaze, he didn't dare to give a clear answer directly. If he was really eaten, where would he go to appeal for justice?

I'm afraid the only way to survive in this cannibalistic world is to save yourself.

Chapter 550 [Another]

For now, there is no need for Qiao Ran to provoke Xuwu Yide.

If we are not careful and allow the other party to join the melee, God knows what the consequences will be. Moreover, the other party has so many good sisters under his command. If a real fight breaks out with real guns and bullets, the human side will probably end up in complete defeat.

So in the end, Qiao Ran still tried his best to reject her. At least, he had to wait until he finished dealing with the things in front of him.

After returning to the real world from the frontier, Qiao Ran also met several girls who had returned from training. Although Qiao Ran had eaten lunch with the Pokémon at noon, it was time for him to get together with them in the evening.

"Let me tell you, we received our first order for food today."

"What kind of order is that? Chafan... are you referring to the ads in the video?"

Several girls looked over with some curiosity. Although they were not very familiar with some of the terms in this world, they had been surfing the Internet in this world for so long that some things were still applicable to them.

"That's about right. In fact, the person who sent us the order was someone we had met before."

Qiao Ran told the girls everything that had happened before, and the girls nodded repeatedly.

"Anyway, we can get paid and promote the show we participated in. Isn't that great?"

Even if the director didn't say it, Qiao Ran would probably have to mention the program to promote it. But since the other party has spoken, it would be too unfair to himself if he didn't eat his fill.

"Hey - it turns out there are benefits to shooting videos."

When Acerola learned about this for the first time, it was as if the door to a new world had opened. Before in Alola, she had no idea there was such an operation.

"By the way, how's the situation over there? You've been training for a whole day, so you should have gained some insights."
