Pokémon: I, Xiaozhi, return to the beginning

Futaba Town, a quiet town, is known as the place where new leaves emerge.

Futaba Town is located in the southwestern corner of the Sinnoh region, and because of its special geographical location, it is regarded by the people of the Sinnoh area as the starting place for trainers.

Of course, Futaba Town can also be regarded as the original place because it is relatively close to the Yamanashi Research Institute, which is the place where the official trainers of the Sinnoh region are handed out initial Pokémon, and Futaba Town, located further south than the Yamanashi Research Institute, naturally got its name.

Although Futaba Town is called a small town, in fact, Futaba Town is divided into a relatively extensive area, and the houses in the town are basically single-family small western-style buildings, is a very suitable town for resting in the trip of life, the only fly in the ointment may be that the residential area is far away from the recognized small commercial street in Futaba Town, shopping is not particularly convenient, right? However, this is also an inconvenience that many small towns share, and Futaba Town is relatively prosperous compared to other towns like Casual Town.

In a green-tiled ivory-clad house in Shuangye Township, the second-floor window was pushed open by a girl with shoulder-length hair, who lay by the window, stretching comfortably while breathing in the fresh air outside.

“We can leave tomorrow.”

A sweet smile appeared on the girl’s face.

The girl’s name is Xiaoguang, a rookie trainer who is only debuting this year, and in order to welcome the upcoming trip, she has not had a good night’s sleep for several days, even in her dreams she thinks about things she may encounter when traveling, places she may go – forest meadows, snowy mountains and deep valleys, seaside beaches…

Places that she could only see on TV and in magazines are now ready to go on her own journey and witness it with her own eyes, and there’s nothing more exciting than traveling alone!

As soon as she thought of this, Xiaoguang’s heart couldn’t help but throb, and she didn’t know what would be waiting for her in the future.

“Hey! Little light! Come down! ”

“？”

Just when Xiaoguang was still immersed in his fantasy, his mother’s voice downstairs suddenly floated over.

“Eat? No… No…” Although

it is almost time for dinner, but listen to this voice… It seems that there is something to do for yourself.

It is obviously the same gentle voice as usual, but in the eyes of children, the seemingly unchanged voice of adults always contains other meanings, just as a child staying at home can clearly tell whether the footsteps at the door are from their parents.

“Alas, it doesn’t seem to be a good thing.”

Xiaoguang thought so, and then walked down a little dejected.

No way, no matter how unwilling, this is the last day before leaving home, even if you are sent to do things, it seems that there is no complaint.

……

Walking downstairs, Xiaoguang saw his mother Caiko standing in the kitchen with a troubled face, and seeing this scene, Xiaoguang knew that his feelings were hit again.

“Is it moving so fast? I thought you were still packing your packages in your room.

Saiko smiled and praised her like she had only grown up now, although it was already praise to say that Xiaoguang had only grown up now, but in Xiaoguang’s eyes, it was not the same thing.

“The package has already been packed! Just waiting for tomorrow to go.

“It’s amazing, I think I decided what to take with me on the morning of departure, it seems that you are much better than me in this regard.”

“Of course!” Xiaoguang triumphantly straightened his chest and said, “It should be common sense to bring something out, it’s mom, you have no common sense.” Perhaps

because he is going out tomorrow, Xiaoguang’s tone of voice to Caiko now begins to be a little fluttering, and he is not afraid of dishwashing retaliation after dinner and mopping retaliation, but Caiko is obviously in a good mood today, and he didn’t think about this matter with Xiaoguang at all.

“Yes, yes, it’s that I don’t have common sense, so Miss Xiaoguang, who has common sense, can you please go to the nearby commercial street to help me buy soy sauce?” The soy sauce at home ran out.

“Huh—

” “No, since you came down so quickly, doesn’t that mean you’re ready to help?” Although the commercial street is a little farther away, it should not be much for the mature Miss Xiaoguang, right? ”

I see…”

replied Xiao Guang with a pout, so ruefully.

If she knew that it was errands, she would lie in the room more and then come down, not that running errands was tired or bad, but there was no novelty in this town that had long been familiar enough to walk to the commercial street with closed eyes, plus Futaba Town would not hold any special activities, and the commercial streets were all old acquaintances, if it was placed in ordinary times, Xiaoguang would not seem so disappointed, but compared what to do today with tomorrow, a sense of loss immediately surged up.

“You don’t have to put on such an expression, do you? Just go shopping, half an hour should be over…”

Caiko looked at Xiaoguang with her head hanging down a little speechlessly, and then said the news that made Xiaoguang’s mental outlook immediately refreshed.

“Then ~ I seem to remember what activities seem to be being held in the commercial street today~” Caiko pressed her index finger against her lips, tilting her head and looking very distressed, but under Xiaoguang’s curious gaze, Caiko quickly looked stunned, clapped her hands and laughed, “Ah! That’s right, that’s right! I remembered it, it seemed like a raffle.

“What, I thought it was something…”

Xiaoguang’s interest suddenly disappeared, and the lottery was already the most commonly held event in the commercial street, but the prizes were generally just like that.

I still remember that the best reward from before to now was a trip to the island for three days and three nights, although Xiaoguang wanted this prize very much, but now even if she draws it, she will not ask for ah, the priority must be tomorrow’s trip, and go to the Yamanashi Research Institute in Shinsa Town to collect the newbie Pokémon.

“Hmm… Not interested? But I heard that this time the prize seems to have a full set of stickers for the gorgeous competition…”

No! Make sure I go!

Xiao Guang suddenly changed his mind.

It turns out that your mother is still your mother, and the psychology of play is still incomparable.

“Go slowly~”

Saiko leaned against the door, smiling and watching Xiaoguang ride away on her bicycle.

“But it shouldn’t work.” After Xiaoguang’s figure completely disappeared from her field of vision, Saiko muttered, “After all, the baby ball sticker is the first prize, and judging by the child’s luck, it is probably just a tissue for the consolation prize.”

Although Caiko decided that Xiaoguang could not draw the grand prize, she did not have any regrets in her heart, after all, she was telling the truth, and whether Xiaoguang could draw the prize she wanted had nothing to do with Caiko.

In addition, just buy soy sauce, Caiko can actually go by herself, and it is not that she is lazy to let Xiaoguang help run errands, but she hopes that Xiaoguang can leave a little more memories of home before she is about to travel, and she also hopes to leave more memories about Xiaoguang.

Time flies quickly, and growing up is only a momentary thing, especially for trainers who travel and stay at home for a few days of the year? It would be nice to have a week or two.

Those who are away live a fulfilling life, and those who are at home look forward to the return of those who are away every day.

Therefore, to communicate more with her daughter in this way, it can be regarded as a little cunning of Caiko as a mother.
