Chapter 370 Frustrated Xiao Guang, the handsome guy makes another appearance!
P.S.: Unfortunately, I only wrote one short chapter. I was busy from 6 AM to 10:30 PM today and simply didn't have the time or energy to write a proper chapter QAQ
.......
The all-out battle between Ash and Shinji has thus come to an end.
The battle between the two dark horses was not reported, and the Sinnoh region maintained its usual tranquility.
Of course, this tranquility is only superficial; the undercurrents beneath the Sinnoh region have not yet revealed themselves.
Compared to the movements of Team Galactic in the Sinnoh region, people in the Sinnoh region are now more concerned about Ash and Dawn's performance in the last program.
"This show is just as amazing as ever! The production team is incredible!"
"The program was well-arranged, but the key was that the two of them performed so well, wasn't it? Ash and Dawn's teamwork is as good as ever. They can tell what the other is thinking and what they want with just a glance."
"That's right!"
In the Sinnoh region.
The most discussed topic right now is still the show featuring Ash and Dawn as best partners.
After all, both of them are young trainers, and Ash and Dawn are dark horse players in the League Tournament and the Contest of Fame, respectively, and are considered to be the most likely candidates to win the championship in both fields this year.
Of course.
Since they are partners, their level of understanding and chemistry is naturally astonishing.
That's why everyone loves watching their shows.
And their theme song is so good!
After this incident, Ash and Dawn's fame soared once again. Their album "High Five!" became a staple in almost every household in the Sinnoh region, and the sales of the bonus items from their TV shows were climbing at a visible rate.
.......
This should have been a happy and wonderful thing.
But Xiaoguang didn't seem to be in a very happy mood today.
"Look! Aren't these the best duo?!"
"Really?! Have you seen their latest show?"
Inside the Pokémon Center, the sounds of conversation from the surrounding people returned.
Hikari, sitting in his seat, found it hard to bear the feeling. He silently rested his head on the table, looked up at Satoshi with a frustrated expression, as if he wanted an explanation from Satoshi.
But Ash clearly hadn't guessed Dawn's thoughts.
At this point, these two best partners were like strangers, but only in a one-sided way.
.
Basically, Dawn knows what Ash is thinking, but Ash doesn't know what Dawn is thinking.
Faced with Hikari's insistence on getting an explanation, Ash's final question was simply—
"What's wrong, Xiaoguang? Is your stomach upset?"
Xiao Gang: "......"
Xiao Gang didn't know what to say to express his thoughts, so he simply remained silent and refused to answer Xiao Zhi's question.
Ash's voice was still a bit too loud when he asked the question in a low voice. Didn't you see the resentment in Dawn's eyes growing stronger and stronger?
You, as one of her best partners, should really take a good look at her eyes!
Xiao Gang's inner cries went unheard. Caught in the middle, Xiao Gang was no longer able to control the situation and could only hope that Xiao Guang would find a way to console himself.
.......
Why did things turn out this way...?
Seeing that Ash didn't react at all, Dawn continued to lower her head in frustration.
She had already put the matter aside and decided not to watch the show that Ash filmed in Celeste City last time.
But she doesn't look.
The people next to me kept giving away spoilers!
Along the way, they met many "fans" who had watched the show. Whenever they came up to greet them and Xiaozhi, they would always talk about the show.
For example, did they hold hands when they used to visit temple fairs?
Does Xiao Zhi always buy her things to eat?
Is it really possible for Ash to understand what she wants to eat at the temple fair just by looking at her eyes?
And wasn't it just for the show that Xiaozhi wiped her mouth with a tissue?
Etc., etc.
Are you kidding me?!
Xiao Guang roared inwardly.
The previous shows were all normal partner-based programs, but they just made people unconsciously think in that direction.
But what about now? This damn Sinnoh NOW is clearly heading in a completely uncontrollable direction!
Hikari eventually couldn't resist her curiosity and took the initiative to ask Ash those questions.
And the answer he received was—
"Oh, that's because the production team told me to be more proactive and show some kind of gentlemanly spirit... so I did that."
Gentlemanly spirit......
How innocent Ash's eyes were when he talked about this.
It makes me feel like I'm the one with ulterior motives...
But none of this is her fault! She did nothing wrong, so why did things turn out this way?
Xiao Guang couldn't understand.
What she couldn't understand even more was that if Xiaozhi would subconsciously do intimate things that most people wouldn't do after he showed gentlemanly behavior, could she also occasionally remind Xiaozhi to "be more gentlemanly"?
Ah! This isn't PUA! It's just normal peer feedback!
Yes! That's it!
There were also a few points that Xiao Guang didn't understand.
The first question is, how is it that Ash can read the mind of the princess who looks exactly like him? Isn't this their first meeting?
And why would that princess accept such intimate gestures from a boy she'd just met? There's something definitely wrong with that!
Xiaoguang could fool herself before, but now she can't fool herself anymore.
That princess, although I don't know why she had a crush on Ash from the very first meeting, she definitely did.
Otherwise, as a girl, she wouldn't allow such intimate behavior to happen to her!
Besides, if she really is just as clueless about emotions as Ash.
In the program clips she couldn't resist watching out of curiosity, she didn't blush and look away when the two made eye contact.
Damn it!!!
A thousand thoughts raced through Xiao Guang's mind, but in the end, all he could do was sigh, and all his unspoken words were reduced to these three.
The reason why Xiaoguang was unwilling to participate in this program filming was to make her and Xiaozhi disappear from the public eye for a while. It wouldn't be too late to continue filming after she won the championship of this grand celebration and Xiaozhi won the League Championship.
As a result, she has given up so much.
But the ending has not yet been achieved.
After all, in everyone's eyes, the person filming the show with Xiaozhi was her.
It's a case of not getting any benefits but getting a lot of disadvantages.
If she had known things would turn out this way, she would have preferred to go on stage herself.
.......
The group's breakfast ended in this silent atmosphere.
Fortunately, this is the Pokémon Center in Mount Tianguan, so there aren't too many people here. Otherwise, given how quickly the show's popularity has spread, it wouldn't have been easy for them to leave the Pokémon Center unscathed this morning.
"This is your Pokémon, and it's fully recovered."
"Thank you."
After dinner, the Pokémon that Ash and his friends had given to Nurse Joy had all recovered.
After receiving the Poké Ball from Miss Joy, Hikaru suddenly caught a glimpse of a small pink figure below the front desk.
"Excuse me, is that child... a shell-less sea hare?"
Yes, that's right.
After hearing Hikaru's question, Miss Joy guessed that Hikaru might be a little interested in the shellless sea hare, so she picked up the shellless sea hare hiding behind her and said.
"This child belongs to the shellless sea hare from the west side of Tianguan Mountain. I don't know why, but it came from the west side of Tianguan Mountain to the east side."
Miss Joey could hardly hide the doubt in her voice when she said that.
The east and west sides of Tianguan Mountain should be insurmountable for the shell-less sea hares living near the river. From ancient times to the present, the shell-less sea hares on both sides have lived a life of non-interference and non-aggression. Except for the occasional individual shell-less sea hares that have been captured or moved from one side to the other, they should coexist peacefully.
After learning this from the Pokédex, Dawn guessed, "Could it be that a trainer released it?"
"Or is there a poaching ring involved?"
After finishing their guesses, Xiao Guang and Xiao Gang turned their attention to the innocent-looking shell-less sea hare, hoping to get the answers they wanted.
The shell-less sea hare seemed to sense Xiaoguang and the others' kindness, so it slowly moved forward and said something to them.
Seeing this, Pikachu quickly jumped off Ash's shoulder, listening to Gastrodon's description while changing various actions to convey the information to the two of them.
"The shell-less sea hare said it didn't know anything. It was just sleeping as usual, and when it woke up it was already here."
Pikachu: "?!"
Several huge question marks suddenly appeared above Pikachu's head.
It then realized that Ash could now understand what Pokémon were saying using his Aura.
After learning this, Pikachu went to sit in the corner looking dejected.
Although Pikachu guessed that this day would come after it discovered that Ash had mastered the power of Aura.
But only after it completely lost its role as a "translator" did Pikachu finally realize that its era had quietly come to an end.
The reason for Pikachu's distraught state was unknown to everyone. Their attention was not on Pikachu at the moment, but on the shell-less sea hare that had inexplicably crossed Mount Tianguan.
Although they were curious about why the shell-less sea hare had come here, their immediate priority was to send it back as soon as possible.
And this kind of task naturally falls to the kind-hearted person.
"We're about to cross Tianguan Mountain now, so let's take this shell-less sea hare back with us."
"Really? Then I'll have to trouble you all! Great, I can finally go home."
"Cut!"
The shell-less sea hare nestled in Miss Joy's palm, gently shaking its little head as if to express its gratitude for Miss Joy's care over the past period.
"A shell-less sea hare that came from the other side of Tianguan Mountain? It doesn't seem to be a natural phenomenon."
“?!” xN
Just as they were about to get up and set off with the shell-less sea hare, a familiar adult male voice suddenly rang out from behind them.
Looking back, they found that the people standing behind them were indeed old acquaintances.
"Handsome gentleman?"
Wearing a trench coat, with a neat and tidy hairstyle, and a calm gaze.
This is their old friend, the Interpol agent codenamed "Handsome Guy".
"Long time no see~ I never expected to meet you all here."
The handsome man gave a perfunctory greeting to the group, then walked up to the shell-less sea hare and said while looking at it, "The shell-less sea hares on both sides of Tianguan Mountain cannot cross the boundary of Tianguan Mountain on their own. This is beyond doubt. The former is an unchanging truth since ancient times. But since the shell-less sea hare has appeared, it means that something must have happened in Tianguan Mountain."
"Team Galaxy?"
Seeing that the handsome guy was still acting like a riddle, Xiao Zhi finally couldn't help but reveal his thoughts.
handsome guy:"......"
He originally wanted to reveal the answer when everyone was still puzzled, but he didn't expect that Xiaozhi had already guessed the truth.
This insightful ability truly makes him a promising talent who has been noticed by various alliances and Interpol.
The handsome guy thought to himself.
Besides thwarting Team Galactic's plan, the handsome guy had also recently received a new mission—
"Try to bring Xiaozhi into the Interpol team."
The decision made by Interpol's top brass was not made out of thin air, and it's impossible to recruit someone simply based on a trainer's performance outside.
The reason Interpol broke with past practices and chose him to recruit such a young trainer was not only because Ash was very strong and one of the dark horses in the League Tournament, but also because they discovered that Ash and Lance had successfully thwarted Team Magma and Team Aqua's plans in the Hoenn region.
They even clashed with the Rockets in the Kanto region.
Ash's performance was exactly like that of a villain's nemesis.
This is the main reason why Interpol wants to involve Xiaozhi.
Of course, these handsome guys didn't know that.
All he knew was that if it weren't for the higher-ups wanting to recruit Ash, he wouldn't have wanted to reveal Team Galactic's information to Ash so easily.
The plan to stop Team Galactic should be carried out by him, and he should take the risks, instead of letting these kids do it.
"That's right."
The handsome man sighed inwardly, then slowly said, "According to my investigation, Team Galaxy is currently in Tianguan Mountain."
