Pokémon League Chronicles/Farming, Pokémon Trainer!

"Eh--"

Several little boys immediately raised their voices to protest: "Listen to stories again? No, listening to stories is so boring. Sister Huo Xia, can you play hide and seek with us?"

Before Huo Xia could reply to them, the little girls next to them looked unconvinced and said in a coquettish voice: "What's wrong with listening to stories? Are the stories told by Sister Huo Xia boring?"

"It's really not interesting!" The little boys were not convinced and immediately retorted: "Sister Huo Xia's books are all about love stories that she and you girls like. You don't know how to listen to so many of them. Are you tired of it? Let me tell you, it’s more fun to hide and seek in the village!”

"Listen to the story!"

"hide and seek!"

"Listen to the story!!"

"hide and seek!!"

Looking at the noisy little boys and girls, Huo Xia couldn't help but laugh a little. She gently closed the bookcase and at the same time picked up the broom and began to clean up the melon seed shells that were scattered on the floor when the children were listening to the story.

Although the flow of people in Zhuqing Village is much higher than that in King Kong Settlement, hairdressing is not an industry with particularly high demand.

Even though Huo Xia is the only barber shop in the entire Zhuqing Village, she can't be said to be very busy at ordinary times. There are usually less than ten customers a day, and the cumulative working time is only two hours a day, so she is very busy most of the time. idle.

In his free time, in addition to cleaning and thinking about new hairstyles, Huo Xia occasionally helps some villagers in Zhuqing Village take care of their children.

Zhuqing Village does not yet have a serious school or classroom, so when the adults go to work during the day, the children are usually left unsupervised, which is very annoying to some parents who like to worry.

When Huo Xia came up with this topic while chatting with them, he took the initiative to invite Ying and said that his barber shop was not too small, and there were many picture books and snacks imported from other areas. It could be used as a temporary hosting center—— Anyway, I have nothing to do. Wouldn’t it be nice to help others take care of their children?Not only can it relieve one's boredom, but it can also establish a good relationship with the folks in the collar area, so that they can take care of their business more in the future, killing two birds with one stone.

Children are children after all. They can quarrel quickly and the topic will disappear quickly.After a few words of quarreling, their topics began to drift to other places.

One of the little girls seemed to have been thinking about it for a long time. She raised her hand and waved: "Sister Huo Xia, I have a question that I have been thinking about for a long time. I have been thinking about it since the last time I heard that story."

"Huh? What's the problem?" Huo Xia responded casually while cleaning the floor.

"Think about it carefully. When the prince kissed Princess Blizzard, they were not husband and wife, right? In that case, wouldn't the prince's behavior really be regarded as a hooligan and be arrested?" The little girl said very seriously: "My father is guarding When I was working in the team, he often told me that girls should be careful about strangers giving candies and adults who look like gangsters..."

No, this is just a fairy tale love story. How come there are so many details for you to pick out?

Huo Xia complained slightly in her heart, but she still explained seriously: "No, although the prince and princess were not married at that time, there are some things that as long as both parties are willing, even if they are not husband and wife, they can do it."

The little girl opened her eyes slightly and said in surprise: "Sister Huo Xia, you mean... both of them are hooligans?"

"That's not what I meant! No, how did you understand it like this!?"

"Last time I asked Sister Xiaozhao about this story, she told me this."

"...Don't embarrass her with this kind of problem. Her understanding of love is probably not as good as that of the big-toothed civet in the agricultural team who is responsible for loosening the soil."

Huo Xia sighed and explained helplessly: "That might have been the case a few decades ago, but now everyone is not so rigid. Before they officially get married and become husband and wife, there is another kind of relationship between men and women. This kind of relationship can be called "lovers", "lovers", or "boyfriends and girlfriends". As the old saying goes, it is also called "love", which you can understand as "quasi-couples".

At this time, although the man and woman are not married yet, they have already developed love, so they can also do some more intimate private things.Unless they do these things to someone other than their lover, they can't be considered hooligans. "

The children all nodded "I see, so that's how it is." Just when Huo Xia breathed a sigh of relief and thought that this topic would be over, he heard another voice who was worried that the world would not be in chaos.

"In that case...Sister Huo Xia!"

It was a little boy, waving his hand with an excited smile on his face: "Do you have a lover?"

"...Huh?" Huo Xia suddenly got stuck.

It is human nature to gossip. Regardless of whether they are men, women, old or young, they all seem to have a different interest in exploring other people's love.

Once this question was raised, it seemed to capture the hearts of the children.They joined in one after another and started asking Huo Xia questions centered on this issue.

"Sister Huo Xia, you are so beautiful. There must be many boys who like you, right?"

"There must be some! My brother is an intern in the construction team. He said that many people there like Sister Huo Xia very much!"

"You guys are stupid. Since we are the lovers of Sister Wenhuo Xia, the key is definitely not the person who likes her, but the person she likes!"

The children suddenly showed expressions of realization.

"I see... Then Sister Huo Xia, do you have someone you like?"

Chapter 122 Look at this flag, it’s long and elegant

Do you have someone you like?

After hearing this question, Huo Xia was obviously stunned, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at the utility table aside.

There were three water glasses placed there, one of which belonged to Huo Xia, and the other one had a label with Xiao Zhao's name neatly written on it.

The last water glass also had a label, but Huo Xia turned it around intentionally or unintentionally, with the back facing outward.

This glance was fleeting, and Huo Xia looked at the bright-eyed children again, laughing and saying: "Well...it's a pity, there is none."

"how is this possible!"

The children immediately expressed their disbelief: "As the saying goes, which boy is not in love, and which girl is not pregnant with love? Sister Huo Xia, you must have someone you like!"

"Which family's saying goes like this?! Where did you hear it?"

"I heard it from you." The children all stretched out their fingers and pointed at a book on Huo Xia's bookshelf.

The Troubles of Youth, by Goethe.

This is one of the countless books Huo Xia bought from other areas last month, and he also read it to this group of children some time ago.

Huo Xia almost slapped herself in the face - does this count as digging a hole for herself to jump into?

If I had known better, I would not have read such complicated books to them. I would have bought more picture books such as "The Braided Sheep and the Black Luca" or "The Haunting of the Loop Bear" in the future that are more suitable for children...

Thinking back on it, it was obvious that these eager children in front of her would not let her go so easily.

Seeing that Huo Xia didn't seem to want to answer, the children buried their heads together and started chattering:

"Tell me, who does Sister Huo Xia like?"

"I don't know, I don't have a pig at all..."

"That word is called clue, you son-in-law!"

"You all should stop arguing... Hum, others don't know, but I actually know."

The little girl who said the last words immediately attracted the attention of a circle of children around her, and even Huo Xia's heart tightened subconsciously.

No, no, no, it should be fine. I haven't mentioned it to anyone. She must have just made a random guess. It's okay...

Huo Xia shook his head and pretended to be calm. Quan pretended that he didn't hear and continued to sweep with the broom.

"Sister Huo Xia must like Brother Mingyao from the investigation team!"

click!

This was the sound of the broom in Huo Xia's hand being broken into ninety degrees.

However, Huo Xia had no intention of caring about the broom at this time. She looked at the little girl who made such shocking remarks in shock, and said almost incoherently: "Why, why would you say that..."

Do you have the ability to read minds? ?

The little girl raised her head proudly:

"I'm not just guessing randomly, it's well-founded!

I have heard that brother Mingyao saved sister Huo Xia in the wild, and it was brother Mingyao who invited sister Huo Xia to the celebration village!

Moreover, Sister Huo Xia also has the best relationship with Brother Mingyao on weekdays, right?This is what the story says, Sister Huo Xia must like him! "

A group of children around them suddenly looked like they were suddenly enlightened:

"So...it's indeed very possible!"

"Huh? So that's Mingyao's "brother"? I always thought he was a big sister..."

"You are so stupid, who told you that those with long hair must be girls?"

"But thinking about it this way, the possibility is indeed very high! You see, the way Sister Huo Xia looks like this is obviously what she was told..."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm done with you guys!"

Huo Xia quickly stepped forward and covered the little girl's mouth. At the same time, she raised her index finger to her lips, fearing that they would make more violent remarks.

Even if children's words are unbridled, there must be a limit!

She looked around, took a deep breath and said, "Since everyone said so, I won't deny it... However, this matter is a secret between us. You must not spread it outside? If anyone tells it, There will be no snacks or snacks to eat in the future.”

Children are children after all. They neither understand the girl's shyness nor have any ill intentions. They discuss this matter simply out of fun.

After hearing Huo Xia threatening them with snacks that were more important to them, they all fell silent. Several children also very smartly drew a circle on Lai Shou's closed lips, pretending to sew their mouths shut. The appearance of getting up.

Huo Xia nodded with satisfaction, took out a few small cakes from the cabinet and gave them to them.

Children, after all, are still very good at handling things.As long as you tell them a few more stories about hide and seek, they will all forget about it.

One of the little girls stuffed cake into her mouth and said vaguely: "Sister Huo Xia, aren't you going to confess your feelings?"

"Confession? Confession for what?"

"Confess your love to brother Mingyao." The little girl blinked: "Isn't it like this in the story you told us? The heroine, the real concubine, liked the hero, but she never confessed her love. In the end, she was killed by her good friend If you take the lead, you will regret it for the rest of your life... I heard from my sister that Brother Mingyao is quite popular in Team Galaxy, aren't you afraid of becoming like the one in the story?"

"You are stupid. The novels are all made up. How can the reality be the same as in the story?" Huo Xia hummed twice and flicked the little girl's head. Ignoring the latter's protest, she turned around and continued to clean up.

There is no need for her to explain some things clearly to the children, as long as she knows it in her own mind.

Huo Xia didn't express his feelings, but he actually understood Mingyao's character.

Although that guy seems to be quite popular and gets along well with many people, his character is actually very reserved and honest when it comes to relationships between men and women. His words and deeds are more than polite, and he rarely takes the initiative to provoke the opposite sex. Other girls think It's not that easy to take the initiative to establish a good relationship with him - most of the girls in Zhuqing Village are relatively honest and shy, and few take the initiative and boldly show love like in Carlos's novels.

And if the attack is not intense enough, it will be difficult to enter that guy's social circle.

Having been in Zhuqing Village for so long, there are only two girls of the same age with whom he can be said to have a close relationship, Huo Xia and Xiao Zhao.

So Huo Xia is actually very confident and has no worries - doesn't this mean there are no competitors at all?

You don't need to do anything deliberately. As long as you get along with each other, everything will fall into place in the end. There is no need to rush it - the story also said that the one who confesses first is the loser.

As for Xiaozhao...well, if we expect that child to awaken to this awareness, we might as well expect Pokémon to be able to speak.

While Huo Xia was humming a little song and tidying up the table, she suddenly heard a shocked cry from the children: "Sister Huo Xia! I see that brother Mingyao seems to be back! He came in from the east gate!"

"Huh? What a coincidence." Huo Xia replied casually, not caring much and said: "Be careful, don't let it slip, otherwise you won't have snacks to eat in the future."

"But, Sister Huo Xia, Brother Mingyao seems to have brought a few girls back with him?"

"Yeah, I know...huh?!"

Chapter 123: Ordinary books may be unfolding here in Shura Field.

"I see, this is the Celebration Village...it's more vibrant than I originally thought."

After reporting to the security team members at the door, Joey stepped into the celebration village and looked around, nodding slightly.

It was about after one o'clock, and people had just finished their morning work and lunch. Many villagers were walking around the streets of the village with their hands behind their backs to relieve their appetite.

This was originally a normal scene, a scene that could be seen in all villages and settlements in the Xicui area.However, in the celebration village, besides people, there are some other embellishments.

Joey was surprised to find that for every ten people here, one seemed to have a Pokémon with him.

There is a big-toothed raccoon who is following the feet of an ordinary firewood man with a basket of firewood tied to his back. There is also a hero who is following a sweaty construction worker and looks like he has just finished working. He is also using his telekinesis to build a low wall. A magic wall doll that helps the ancient old man walk and stop.

The types of Pokémon themselves are not particularly rare. They are just ordinary Pokémon commonly seen on the roadside. Their physiques or hair quality are not that good, and they are not as good as the Pokémon carefully cultivated in the gym. The dreams are far apart, and their combat prowess is completely worth mentioning.

But the shock they gave Joey was even greater than when he first came to the gym.

"Those people...are not Pokémon trainers, right?"

"Yeah, they've never even been exposed to Pokémon battles."

Mingyao walked up to her and explained: "In Celebration Village, there are many people who choose to partner with Pokémon not for battle, but for life."

"For life..." Joey murmured to himself: "Apart from my hometown, this is the first time I have seen so many people living with Pokémon in a big village.

Junior Sister Xiao Ming... No, Mingyao, do you want Zhuqing Village to become a place similar to Pearl Settlement or King Kong Settlement? "

"No, more than that."

Mingyao waved his hand: "What I want is a Pokémon society with a larger scale and structure. It can't be explained in a few words. The current situation is just a starting point at most."

"It's already like this, is it still just the starting point?"

Joey lowered his head for a moment: "No matter what, I am really interested in the "Pokémon society" you mentioned. I want to observe it here again."

"Of course there is no problem." Mingyao smiled: "If you have any questions, you can ask me at any time. But before that, I have to take you to a place first."

As he spoke, he waved behind him, instructing the people behind him to follow him.
