She had another nosebleed.

She hurriedly tried to wipe it clean, but the next second a hand holding a wet towel appeared in her sight and carefully wiped the blood from her nose.

"Didn't you agree to wake me up the first time you wake up?"

The tired voice made the little girl stammer, and then she asked in a soft voice as if to change the subject.

"Is grandma okay?"

Because she has been living in the hospital, the little girl can only learn about what is happening outside through her mother. Not long ago, she heard that there have been big changes in where her grandmother lives, so she has been very concerned about it.

The little girl's mother didn't actually pay attention to these things, but that didn't stop her from picking out conversations with other patients in the ward and telling them to her daughter.

"Of course I'm fine. Grandma said that the air in the countryside has become much fresher, and there are many new little animals popping up. Everyone is talking about it."

"A new animal?" The little girl's eyes sparkled. "I want to see it."

The little girl's mother subconsciously wanted to say, "You need to have a good rest," but she swallowed the words back after remembering that the doctor had always reminded her that it was best for patients to keep a good mood.

"You can't look at that little fish for too long."

While picking up the mobile phone on the bedside table and handing it to her daughter, the young mother made this request which had little binding force, and then stared at the patient information card on the bedside table in a daze.

Xiao Yu.

Looking at this name, the woman with a haggard face began to look dazed.

She had always hoped that her daughter could swim freely in this world like the homonym of her name, but in the end...

Thinking of her worsening condition and the upcoming surgery, her hands began to tremble slightly.

She never told her daughter the truth, but just kept comforting her by saying that as long as she cooperated with the doctor's treatment, she would be able to be discharged from the hospital. Recently, she even encouraged her by saying that she would take her to visit her grandmother after she was discharged.

But can these promises really be fulfilled?

She didn't dare to think about the answer to this question, but the question Xiaoyu asked next made her body stiffen again.

"Will there still be many customers after Mom temporarily hands over the cake shop to someone else to take care of it?"

“Yes, there is!”

Xiaoyu's mother tried hard to put a smile on her face.

"Mom often goes back to visit. Although it's not as popular as when we worked together before Xiaoyu got sick, it's still being managed very well."

This answer brought a happy smile to the little girl's face, followed by an exclamation.

"What a big bug!"

Chapter 9 The Closed Cake Shop

Shancheng Observation Station, conference room.

"They are not ordinary creatures, but Pokémon whose IQ far exceeds that of humans?"

After hearing this, Shen Ying subconsciously glanced at the green caterpillar on the table, which seemed to have realized that there was no danger here and was eating the leaves slowly.

Shen Ying vaguely felt that what Jon meant by this was that he hoped humans could coexist with Pokémon, rather than treating other animals in a condescending manner like they do now.

But is this really possible?

Shen Ying admitted that Jon's idea was good, but the problem was that no one except Jon could verify the truth of his words. Even he himself said that he had only been in that strange world for a short time.

Only eighteen days!

Can such a short period of time really allow a person to have such a clear understanding of the existence of Pokémon?

But the other party's performance did not seem to be fake.

She's not stupid.

The reason why this special live broadcast room has not been banned or only open to a small number of people is very simple. In addition to the fact that they cannot interfere with the other side of this world, they may also want to use this gentle way to let ordinary people know about the existence of Pokémon in advance.

But there is no doubt that this will also change the existing social structure.

Shen Ying was not afraid of such a change. On the contrary, she was secretly looking forward to it.

She was just afraid that all this would be fake again.

Thinking of this, she looked at the Caterpillar again.

After it was confirmed to be harmless and non-toxic, it was released from the cage.

However, it seems that there is not much difference for the caterpillar whether it is in an iron cage or not. At least in Shen Ying's eyes, this little guy doesn't seem to care about anything except eating.

But even so, the Caterpillar was still a little frightened by Shen Ying's gaze.

After thinking it over again and again, it arched its body and pushed a small pile of fresh leaves that had just been picked in front of Shen Ying.

Shen Ying was touched by the action that seemed like paying protection fee. She smiled and pushed the leaf back in front of the caterpillar. But before she could say anything, she was stunned by the first sentence the old professor said after he finished his meditation.

"Little Fairy Milk... Does that mean the birth of Pokémon might be related to the situation here?"

Remembering what Jon had said before, the professor, who hadn't closed his eyes since yesterday, took out his cell phone, but before he made the call, a comment in the live broadcast room stopped him.

...

...

[Fuck! I remembered why I thought the name Yuyue Cake Shop sounded familiar! The host was right, that cake shop is indeed so popular that it is packed with customers almost every day! ]

In the live broadcast room, where people were deeply shocked by Jon's previous words and even the number of comments decreased, this statement attracted the attention of many people.

Jon noticed it too.

Originally, he was still racking his brains over how to confirm the situation of the cake shop on the other side, but now someone in the live broadcast room took the initiative to bring it up.

"Can you tell me about that cake shop?"

[Um... Actually, I haven't been to that shop in person, but I ate there once and often asked my family to bring some back. Then I remember it was about two years ago! Two years ago, this cake shop suddenly closed down...]

Yu Yue Cake Shop suddenly closed down two years ago?

Could this be related to the fact that Xiaoxiannan lost her friend?

Jon fell into deep thought as he looked at some comments in the live broadcast room that had noticed something was wrong.

[It closed two years ago? Did the guy in front remember it wrongly? The cake shop just now seemed to be operating normally. Hasn't it been confirmed that the host's location might be on the other side of the world? Except for the lack of people, everything else is the same. ]

[Maybe your family simply finds it troublesome and doesn’t want to bring it to you? ]

【Not to the extent that...】

The barrage that had just explained the situation of Yu Yue Cake Shop hurriedly denied it, and the colorful barrage that had not appeared for a long time immediately afterwards proved his statement.

[I just asked someone to check and found out that this cake shop was indeed closed two years ago, but it was not because of rent increases or anything like that, but because the owner of the cake shop directly sold the shop.]

The store was sold?

This news made Jon stunned, and then he sighed secretly in his heart.

He could think of many reasons for choosing to sell a store with a huge customer flow without any rental pressure, but it could be said that none of them were positive.

But the shop was clearly sold two years ago. Why is Yu Yue Cake Shop still here?

This isn't just a concern for Jon.

[Need to find the owner of Yuyue Cake Shop? ]

It was still a colorful barrage, but there was no word related to "help" in the content.

Jon nodded.

Then he took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry, today's live broadcast will end here."

...

...

in the ward.

"Green caterpillar, big green caterpillar..."

The little fish, who was holding a crayon and trying hard to draw the shape of a green caterpillar on paper, still looked pale, but was in a better mood than ever before.

She thought the countryside where her grandmother lived must have become very interesting, so she wanted to draw all the new animals before going to her grandmother's house.

The little girl drew the picture based on a photo on the Internet, but the drawing was quite similar.

Her mother sat by and watched with a smile, and after Xiaoyu finished a painting, she would help find new photos.

This warm relationship continued until the attending physician's routine ward rounds.

To the surprise of the mother and daughter, when the attending doctor walked into the ward today, he went straight to Xiaoyu's bed with a look of excitement on his face.

"I have some good news that I think requires... um..."

The middle-aged man, who was already showing signs of baldness, spoke subconsciously, but then seemed to have thought of something and quickly closed his mouth, turning to look at Xiaoyu's mother.

"Ms. Chen, could you please come out for a moment?"

Xiaoyu's mother was stunned for a moment, then stood up.

Before leaving, she subconsciously looked at her daughter on the hospital bed.

The little girl waved at her with a crayon in her hand, and her pale face seemed to have become a lot rosier because of the painting exercise.

"It's okay! Mom, you have to listen carefully to the good news brought by the doctor. Then I will be happy too."

Xiaoyu has always hoped that one day she could see an expression other than worry on her parents' faces, but it seems that all she can do is try to smile.

This smile successfully calmed her mother down and she left with the attending doctor. Then the little girl picked up her crayons and drawing board again.

She hasn't finished painting yet.

But the girl who was drawing seriously didn't notice that when she started to draw the third picture, a white-haired but energetic old man walked into the ward and stood beside the bed expressionlessly.

The old man just watched quietly until the little girl couldn't help giggling because of the dull and lifeless eyes of the Carp Magikarp she drew. Then he opened his mouth to pull the little fish out of her own world.

"Are you drawing Pokémon?"

Chapter 10: Finding a Lost Playmate

"Are you drawing Pokémon?"

The gentle tone made Xiaoyu pause in her laughter, and then she realized there was someone around her.

However, after seeing the old man's white coat, she felt relieved and looked at him in confusion.

"Pokémon? What is that?"

Apparently the little girl didn't know the real names of these cute creatures in her eyes.

The old man smiled and pointed at the drawing paper that Xiaoyu had placed aside.

"Although they have different names, they are called Pokémon."

This answer made Xiaoyu couldn't help but let out an exclamation and picked up his painting again.

"Pokémon..."

The little girl muttered the name softly, and then her eyes narrowed into lovely crescents.

“It’s a nice name.”

Xiaoyu didn’t know that many people now think that the name Pokémon is somewhat meaningless, she just simply thinks that the name sounds nice.

Then the old man took out a cell phone.

"Yeah... they all look like cute creatures, but the Pokémon that are currently recognized as the cutest are not the ones you drew, little girl."

This sentence instantly attracted Xiaoyu's attention, and then she saw the old man put the mobile phone in front of her.

"Its name is Little Fairy Milk."

While showing Xiaoyu the photo of Little Fairy, the old man was also carefully watching the little girl's facial expression.

He saw the little fish frowning cutely.

"Little girl, do you have any impression of this Pokémon?"

Xiaoyu hesitated for a long time, but finally shook her head, pointed at the glass door behind Xiaoxiannai in the photo and asked quietly: "Is this my family's cake shop?"
