I got the Pokémon

Strong winds blew almost all night.

Xia You basically didn't sleep well that night. Listening to the howling wind outside the window, he was always woken up suddenly in his sleep.

The same was true for Xiaoxia. When the two met in the restaurant the next day, they both saw dark circles under each other's eyes.

"Ha~" Xiaoxia yawned greatly, rubbed her eyes, and sighed, "The wind was so loud last night. I was worried all night long whether the window would be broken by the wind!"

"Me too." Xia You shook his head helplessly, "Even if you put on headphones, it still has no effect."

But there is good news. After a night of strong winds, the typhoon did not land on Wudou Island as expected. Although the sky in the distance is still filled with endless black clouds, it still seems to have deviated slightly from the direction. The center is formed by the island. The east side has moved to the west side of the island. Although it is still threatening Wudou Island, there should be no danger for the time being!
"Eat quickly. Now, let's hurry up and challenge the martial arts gym. If we wait for the typhoon to change direction again, we won't be able to get out."

Xiaoxia also knew that time was tight and it was best to get down to business now, so she didn't say much. The two of them devoured a meal, filled their stomachs, and fed some food to the Pokémon. They packed lightly and traveled easily. I went straight out of the Pokémon Center without a backpack.

Compared with yesterday, the whole town has changed.

It was only after 7 o'clock in the morning, but the streets were empty, not even a pedestrian.

Radio sounds came from unknown sources, constantly reminding residents to take shelter at home and not go out in case of a typhoon that could land at any time.

This also caused the doors of every house to be closed tightly, and you could even see people putting tape on the gaps behind the windows as a precaution.

The two looked at each other and felt that the matter was somewhat urgent. They no longer delayed, but took a few steps quickly and ran towards the direction of the martial arts gym.

call……

A strong wind blew against the two of them. I don't know if it was their imagination, but they felt that the wind seemed to be stronger than when they just left the Pokémon Center.

Looking up again, it turned out that it was not their overthinking, but the dark cloud on the horizon, which had turned again and was approaching Wudou Town!
It’s true that the more you worry about something, the more it will happen!
The two of them have just left the town where they are now. Whether they are going to the Fighting Gym or back to the Pokémon Center, the rest of the journey is the same.

But Xia You was a little reluctant to return to the Pokémon Center like this.

After all, if you come out of the capital and then go back, wouldn't you be doing useless work!
Besides, to trainers, typhoons and storms are nothing. If you can't bear this difficulty, you should change your career as a coordination trainer as soon as possible!
Every hardship is the source of his strength!

Thinking of this, Xia You strengthened his belief in challenging the gym. He did not think about using the dragon to carry them flying through the air. Instead, he continued to go to the martial arts gym despite the strong wind!

But this bothered Xiaoxia.

Because her body is relatively slender, she was almost knocked over by the strong wind several times!
Fortunately, Xia You had quick eyes and quick hands and caught her, preventing her from falling.

Later, the two even held hands and moved forward together!
woohoo hoo...

After leaving the town, they came to the cliff where the martial arts gym was located. As the two of them slowly climbed up the gentle slope, the wind blowing on them seemed to become stronger.

"Brother Xia You..." Xiaoxia opened her mouth and drank a lot of wind. She had to cover her mouth and said, "Didn't you bring Suicune with you? With its power, it should be able to stop this typhoon, right?" "

"It should be possible." Xia You lowered his head, "But don't think about it. This typhoon is naturally formed. We cannot interfere too much, otherwise it will affect the ecological balance."

"How could this affect the ecological balance?" Xiaoxia was a little confused.

"The formation and trajectory of typhoons are actually very complicated and not as simple as we think. Moreover, as they form, they are often accompanied by heavy rains. Although heavy rains will cause certain losses to coastal areas, they will bring sufficient moisture to the inland areas. It nourishes the earth, if I stop it now, it will have a series of chain reactions on the inland ecology!"

Speaking of this, Xia You paused and continued: "Besides, even if the damage is caused, it is actually very small. Seaside cities like Wudou Town have their own flood drainage systems. When heavy rain enters the city, it will soon will be discharged back into the sea.”

For a 10-year-old girl, this was the first time she understood these profound things, but after understanding this truth, she kept silent and never mentioned it again.

I just sighed in my heart, Brother Xia You knows so much.

If it were those simple-minded guys, how could they think so much? In order to show off their power, they might actually do this!
Although it was not easy to walk on a windy day, the journey was not very far after all. After walking for dozens of minutes, the two finally arrived at the martial arts gym successfully.

I had just passed under the strange sign I saw yesterday, and far away, I saw someone standing in front of the gate of the martial arts gym!

When I took a quick look, it turned out to be Caidou whom I met yesterday!

It seems that like herself, Caidou also wants to take advantage of this period to challenge the martial arts gym as soon as possible before the typhoon logs in.

I really thought about it.

It's just... why doesn't she go in?
Hearing footsteps behind her, Caidou turned around and naturally saw Xia You and the others.

Walking to her side, Xia You looked towards the gym door and finally understood why she was standing here.

I saw that the door of the martial arts gym was closed tightly, and there was a big lock hanging on it. It was obviously not open!
No one inside?

I took out my phone and looked at the time. It was already 8:47 in the morning. According to normal working hours, the gym should be open for business.

"What..." Xiaoxia sighed in disappointment and muttered, "I was thinking of going in quickly to hide from the strong wind, but if it keeps blowing like this, my skin will be cracked!"

Instructing her to calm down, Xia You turned to look at Caidou.

"How long have you been here?"

Caidou was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting this man to talk to her.

However, it was not the first time that the two of them met. Although she was a little uncomfortable, she hesitated and said, "Half an hour."

"Half an hour!?" Hearing her answer, Xiaoxia's eyes widened and she looked at Caidou in disbelief and said, "Have you been standing like this at the door for the past half hour?"

Caido nodded slightly.

"Oh my God, you are so stubborn...I mean you are so patient..." Xiaoxia looked at her in shock, then swallowed her words.

In fact, she wanted to say, you are really stubborn, but this was obviously a bit rude, so she had to change her mind in a hurry.

Caidou didn't think anything was wrong and didn't speak again. Judging from the meaning, it seemed that she wanted to wait here like this. Xia You was also quite speechless. He shook his head, then withdrew his gaze and walked around the martial arts gym several times.

Because he had been here yesterday, he probably knew what the layout was like, and now he just wanted to see if there were any backdoors to the gym, or if there was any contact information left.

Unfortunately, I turned around several times and found nothing.

When she returned to the main entrance, Xiaoxia stopped talking and said, "Brother Xia You...will the people from the Taoist temple not come today?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that not only Xia You was looking at her, but even Caidou was also looking at her.

"Um..." she cleared her throat and said cautiously, "When we went out, wasn't the whole town broadcasting? The content on the broadcast was to ask the residents of the town not to go out and stay at home as much as possible. Could it be that Teng Shu also obeyed the arrangement and won’t come today?”

This……

Xia You frowned, obviously he had not thought of this before.

As the saying goes, a wise man will make mistakes every time he thinks, not to mention that he is not a wise man.

In fact, before coming, he only thought that as a trainer, encountering such a typhoon would not stop him. No matter how heavy the rainstorm was, he would still come to the gym!
But he forgot that unlike himself, for Teng Shu, running the gym was just one of his jobs, and he was not a traveler who went on adventures to hone himself!
In such extreme weather, it seems normal for him not to come to work.

Although Fujishu likes surfing and prefers the sea, there seems to be no need to risk typhoons and get himself wet just to go to work.

Seeing Xia You's thoughtful look, Xiaoxia quickly comforted her: "Of course, this can only be because I'm overthinking it. Brother Xia You, don't mind..."

He knew that Xiaoxia was comforting herself, but Xia You also knew that the situation she mentioned was very likely to happen!
Now I can only place my hope on Fujishu, who has a strong professional ethics and will come to host the gym in such weather.

But then he thought about it, he could find an agent to come to the gym for surfing, and it seemed that it was impossible for him to come to the gym in such weather.

"What you said makes sense." Xia You knew that Xiaoxia was taking care of her own emotions, nodded to her, and agreed with her point of view, "Just wait until 9 o'clock. If they don't open the door at 9 o'clock, it means they will open the door today." It’s true that it won’t be open anymore, so let’s go back to the Pokémon Center.”

While the two were talking, Caidou was listening quietly.

Although she said nothing, she also listened to what the two said. Like Xia You and Xiaoxia, she remained motionless, obviously planning to wait until 9 o'clock to see how the situation went.

Xia You and Xiaoxia found a flat stone step with leeward side and sat down.

The strong wind blew Caidou's hair away. Not only did her silver-gray hair flutter in the wind, but even the black rabbit ears headband on her head was swaying.

Seeing Caidou still standing there, with the strong wind still blowing on her body, Xiaoxia couldn't help but said: "Sister, do you want to come here and sit too?"

Caidou glanced at her and shook his head slightly.

For her, standing in the wind is also a kind of spiritual practice, which can exercise her endurance.

What's more, there are only ten minutes left before 9 o'clock, so it doesn't matter if she keeps standing. Just like the previous half hour, didn't she stand motionless?
In just a short while, the typhoon was getting closer and closer.

The entire palm forest outside the gym seemed to begin to sway along with it.

After taking a look at the time, Xia You decided not to wait, even though it was still a few minutes until 9 o'clock.

"Let's go back."

"Eh?" Hearing Xia You talk about leaving, this time it was Xiaoxia's turn to hesitate, "Do you really want to leave? Don't you still have some time? Don't wait any longer?"

"Of course." Xia You said, "If Teng Shu wanted to come, he would have come a long time ago. It's not too late at all. It seems that he won't show up today. If he wants to challenge the gym, he can only wait until the typhoon passes. Let’s challenge again!”

"All right……"

Xiaoxia nodded, stood up with Xia You, and walked down the mountain.

When passing Caidou, Xia You also said to her: "Don't wait, come down the mountain with us. The typhoon is coming soon. If we continue to delay, we may be trapped here!"

Caidou glanced at the distant sky.

Indeed, just as Xia You said, the typhoon has arrived in the waters near Wudou Island. Landing is inevitable, and a large amount of water vapor can even be smelled in the air.

Knowing that waiting here wouldn't change anything, he nodded and followed Xia You and Xiaoxia down the mountain.

The three of them walked quickly along the road they came from.

In order to avoid pulling down too many colorful beans, Xia You and Xiaoxia deliberately slowed down their speed, but after only walking a few hundred meters, they realized that they were thinking too much.

The girl behind her has tight muscles and obviously exercises regularly. Not only is her physical fitness better than theirs, her pace is also obviously much faster than theirs.

It only took a moment to catch up with them!
With their pace, they could reach the town in ten minutes as long as they went down the mountain.

However, they obviously underestimated the speed of the typhoon.

I don’t know when it started, but it suddenly started raining.

At first it was just small raindrops, falling on them, but only ten seconds later, it turned into a downpour!
Because they packed lightly before going out, neither Xia You, Xiaoxia nor Caidou brought much luggage. Only Caidou brought a small backpack!

Not to mention raincoats at this time, they didn’t even have an umbrella!
The clothes on his body were soaked through in an instant, and the rainwater poured on his head, just like washing his face with a faucet, running down his face!
Calculating the distance, whether I ran at full speed, ran directly into the town, or returned to the gym and broke the window to take shelter from the rain, it was already too late!
In such rain, let alone speak, the visibility is extremely low, and it is almost impossible to even open your eyes.

Fortunately, when Xia You came, he remembered that there was a cave nearby, not far from where they were now, which could be used to take shelter from the rain!

Without thinking much, he waved to Xiaoxia and Caidou, then left the path first and ran toward the rocks nearby.

Xiaoxia naturally knew that cave and understood Xia You's thoughts, so she followed closely.

As for Caidou, although she didn't know why they didn't continue down the mountain, she also realized that there should be some shelter nearby, so she followed them without hesitation. (End of chapter)
