Chapter 4 Trouble

Since the living room was ventilated and dried after mopping the floor, the door of the villa was not closed. The little Kirby sleeping at the door seemed to smell the fragrance of the kitchen. It began to stir and toss and turn in its sleep.

At this moment, a figure quietly approached from the orchard. It had a large white plastic bag with two holes on its head and looked at the living room. The green braids on its head were swinging like stupid hair.

"Um..."

After observing for a moment, he saw movement in the kitchen. He took gentle steps and walked into the living room.

There are two green leaves on its feet, which are similar to clogs. It makes no sound when it steps on the floor.

Smelling the fragrance, it walked all the way to the kitchen door, then finally stopped and looked around, as if expecting to see someone...

It's just... There was only Mingyou cooking noodles in the kitchen, and there was no one he wanted to see. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and turned around to leave.

But the little Kirby, who had already woken up, had arrived behind it at some point. As soon as it turned around, it bumped into it and fell to the ground. The plastic bag on its head fell off and floated towards the kitchen.

"Ok?"

Hearing the sound, Mingyou looked subconsciously and saw a child sitting on the ground in front of the kitchen door, holding his head and looking nervously.

The green part of its body resembles a lace skirt, and is decorated with cute white five-pointed stars and yellow circle patterns on the top.

A cloak similar to a ginkgo leaf is worn on the head, with a circle of thick black thorns on the edge, and the raised spikes form a structure similar to antennae.

On the lower round face, which is as orange as a ripe ponkan, half a leaf forms the bangs, and the green around the eyes looks like eyeshadow.

The starry pupils in the yellow eyes always remind people of a certain deceased popular idol, and the little tiger teeth exposed by slightly opening the mouth because of being too nervous and scared make it even more cute...

[Ergui: The masked Pokémon has a character that is afraid of loneliness. It’s a very pitiful little guy. Spending more time with it should quickly improve its favor]

"Ergui?!"

"Um..."

Hearing the other party calling out his name, Erguichun shivered and seemed to want to run away, but was too scared to move forward and get up.

Seeing that this Legendary Pokémon was actually afraid of him, Mingyou's surprise disappeared. Then he slowed down his movements, stepped forward, and stopped after maintaining a certain distance.

He bent down and stayed at the same height as Ergui to let the other person relax his guard. He reached out to pick up the plastic bag and asked softly: "Did you drop this?"

"Um..."

"Take it~"

"Um?"

Ergui was stunned for a moment, then carefully reached out to catch the plastic bag he handed over, and put it directly on his head, passing through the thorn-like tentacles, only revealing his eyes through two small holes.

Looking at its pitiful appearance, Mingyou felt a little confused. That was why this Ergui didn't have a mask? He actually put a bag over his head...

Although he was puzzled, he did not ask directly for fear that he might irritate the other party. Instead, he asked softly in order to find out something.

"Um...are you here to see grandpa? He is the old man who lived here before."

"Hmm~"

Mentioning this, Ergui looked very excited and kept looking around, as if looking for the other party.

After confirming the answer, Mingyou sighed softly, with apology and sadness on his face, and said, "I'm sorry, grandpa is no longer here. I am his family."

"Um..."

Hearing this, Ergui's mood seemed to drop instantly. He even took off the plastic bag and wanted to change to a mask to express his current mood, but unfortunately, there was no other mask.

But it didn't overreact. It seemed to have known about this for a long time, but it still came here and looked at the lighted house with a glimmer of expectation.

When the little Kirby passed by and walked into the kitchen, Ergui turned around and was about to leave, but maybe he kept smelling the fragrance of the kitchen...

goo—

Erguifen covered his growling stomach with red cheeks. Mingyou smiled softly from behind and said, "You must be hungry. It just so happens that I cooked a little too much noodles. Do you want to eat together? Eat until you are full before leaving."

"Um..."

After hesitating for a moment, maybe the scent was too tempting for it, as if it was a crime, its stomach growled twice again, but it had no choice but to nod lightly.

In the kitchen, while the little Kirby stole the sweet potatoes and crouched in the corner, Mingyou found two large bowls and placed them on the stove, just enough to hold a pot of noodles. Then he went out to the living room and brought two stools in. Eguifen sat on them and looked at the noodles in the bowl.

Smelling the fragrance, it was impatient, but instead of using chopsticks, a green vine stretched out from under the cloak on the left side and stretched directly into the bowl...

"Um!"

"Hey! It's very hot, don't touch it directly!"

Seeing that it was burned, Mingyou quickly wet it with a towel and stepped forward to help wipe it.

The little Kirby passed by normally again, stood up on tiptoes to pick up his bowl, and then returned to the corner...

"Um..."

Ergui hung his head like a child who made a mistake, and Mingyou didn't blame it. It could be seen that the other party had not eaten noodles before, and thought it was the same as eating fruit, so he went straight to grab it.

"Be careful."

Mingyou held its bowl, picked up the noodles with chopsticks, blew on it gently, and brought it to its mouth.

"Let's eat~"

"Um..."

Eguifen hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth, revealing his little tiger teeth, and bit down, almost breaking his chopsticks. Although it was just a simple tomato soup noodle, he had never eaten these before, and he usually only eats fruit. Mostly.

Seeing it eating noodles happily, Mingyou smiled and recalled the days when he was in the orphanage, chasing after the children to feed him.

Children living in orphanages either lost their families due to accidents, or were abandoned by their families for special reasons... Every child is actually very lonely, and many even have psychological trauma, and the orphanage has become a place to take care of them and provide them with warmth. Home.

The misfortune in front of him also gave Mingyou the feeling of those children. At this moment, he finally understood why his grandfather wanted to be a ranger, just like he would return to work in an orphanage in his previous life...

He had gradually firmed up his thoughts in his mind, and after Eguifen finished drinking the noodle soup, he also brought over the plate of tomatoes mixed with sugar.

"Try it, you can take this directly."

"Um..."

Ergui stretched out the vine, took a piece of tomato and ate it. His small mouth instantly turned into a "0" shape, and the two small tiger teeth were fully exposed, and he used the vine to get it again.

But when it first touched the tomato, it stopped, raised its head slightly, and looked at Mingyou in front of it with bright eyes, as if asking it if it could take another piece.

"If you like it, give it to you. One bowl of noodles is enough for me. Even if I make so much, I won't be able to finish it."

"Hmm~"

Erguihu happily hugged the dish. Although it was a stranger, it did not feel any prejudice from Mingyou. Instead, it looked very concerned about itself, which was different from others.

"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Seeing that he liked it, Mingyou was also very happy, but then he suddenly saw familiar blue particle light spots emanating from Ergui's body!

Finally, the light points condensed and formed a card with a strange and strange vertical painting. It was spinning in mid-air. He was slightly stunned and reached out to take it...

[Evil Ponkan (lv1): After using it on the Ponkan tree, the type changes to the Ponkan tree, which can grow Eccentric Ponkan trees with attribute bonuses (grass, fire, water, rock)]

"It appears again...this time it's Ponkan?"

Mingyou looked at the contents of the card, and then looked at Ergui, who was happily eating tomatoes. He was silent for a long time, and seemed to finally understand the role of his ability.

At this moment, he held the card tightly in his hand. Maybe this was hope. He had already made a decision in his heart. Since it was what grandpa expected, let him take over and run this place!

It's just a debt. If you can make good use of your abilities and use these cards to grow mutant crops, you might be able to pay it off soon!

"Go and give the answer tomorrow!"

After making the decision, he seemed to be relieved, but he was also burdened with invisible pressure. Then he shook his head slightly, his eyes became firm, and he turned around, ready to continue with dinner, but there was no bowl on the stove.

In the corner of the kitchen, a bowl was turned upside down on the floor. The little Cappy beast was lying next to it, scratching its belly and sleeping contentedly.

"Gambi~"
