Pokémon Beyond the Blue

"Ikki, you can go back first, I'm alone...no problem."

Kallen finally stabilized, but it was already past midnight.

Ikki couldn't hold it any longer and kept dozing off, but before he fell asleep, he was forcefully awakened by himself. He persisted for a while and then closed his eyes again.

Kallen's words were exactly what he needed now, but he still couldn't let Kallen stay here alone, so he shook his head firmly.

"Not yet, at least I have to wait until Kallust comes out."

"No problem!" Kallen clenched her fists and lowered her head and said seriously, "Let others spend so much energy to help... Not only me, Kalest will also feel bad about it!"

Her voice was still trembling, as if she was about to cry again.

Ikki didn't dare to act rashly.Neither leaving nor staying, he was so anxious that he stamped his feet.

"Karen..."

He softly called the name of this girl who was several years older than him, but he couldn't think of what to say.

Just at this moment, the lights in the emergency room went out, indicating that the doctors' work was over, but the result was still worrying.

Karen stood up almost at the same time and quickly rushed to the door to wait for the results.Ikki followed closely behind.

The door opened, and the attending doctor used the handkerchief handed to him by his assistant and walked out while wiping the sweat on his head.

"Doctor...how is the situation?"

Even now, she still doesn't want to believe that Kalest would be so seriously hurt for her sake.That proud young master would actually sacrifice for others.In the past, Kallen must have found it incredible, but now, she just feels that she owes Kalest so much that she will never be able to repay him in her lifetime...

The doctor calmed down and remembered that the girl in front of him was the family member of the injured patient whom his assistant had told him, so he dragged his exhausted body aside and whispered something.

Riolu is back too.Although Ikki didn't understand what happened to him just now, since he came back, he just hugged him and looked at Kallen and the doctor not far away.However, there were two obvious water marks on the hair on Riolu's face. Ikki stared at it for a long time, until he also noticed it, rubbed it randomly with his paws, and made a fierce expression towards Ikki.It's just that no matter how you look at it, it just feels a little cuter.

The two people over there spoke very quietly, and their backs were turned to them.Ikki could only judge Kallen's mood through the slight ups and downs of her body.But Riolu clearly heard the content of their conversation with his extraordinary hearing.

He didn't want to remember any unnecessary nonsense, he just grasped the two key points.With these two points alone, Riolu temporarily relaxed and felt better.

"Caluster is fine." This is the first one, which also makes Kallen feel a lot less guilty. "But whether he can wake up depends on his own will." This is the second one. .

Karen took a step back, bowed deeply towards the doctor, and watched him walk into the office before slowly turning her head.

This result should be considered good for the two brothers and sisters.Compared to death, it is so gratifying.Because Kalest was not the kind of person to lie in bed obediently, he would definitely wake up.

Kallen tried her best to express her joy with a smile, but the tears on her face made it impossible for her to raise the corners of her mouth.

Silently lowering her head, she stood facing Ikki and Riolu for a while, then slowly walked into the emergency room.

Ikki glanced at Riolu and walked in with him.

The Geely Eggs were doing the final touches and organizing their tools. When they saw their arrival, they paid a lot of attention and tried not to let their round bodies block their way forward.

Kallen nodded gratefully towards these kind elves and walked straight to the bed in the center without pausing.

& nb

sp; Kalest was lying quietly on the bed, seemingly unconscious or asleep. In short, his expression was very gentle, neither the usual aloofness nor arrogance, nor was he distorted by pain.

Perhaps it was because of the shadowless lamp that his face looked a little miserable, and his body was almost covered with bandages. If it weren't for the iconic blond hair, Ikki would not have believed that this was the Kalest.

Kallen was speechless. She slowly sat on the chair next to the hospital bed and raised her right hand, trying to hold Kalest's basically uninjured left hand - that was because he had been protecting her. There was no hand in contact with the flames.But just when she was about to touch him, she withdrew again.

Ikki knew that she felt uncomfortable, but if she disturbed her now, that would be a real sign of ignorance.

"We'd better leave..."

Ikki said helplessly.Since Kalest's situation is no longer a big problem, Karen should be able to think a little more and there is no point in continuing to stay.

"Wait, Ikki..."

Just when he was about to leave with Riolu, who was already a little sleepy, Kallen suddenly stopped him.

"Anything else?"

Ikki didn't walk back, just turned around and said.But Karen got up and walked over.

"……Thank you……"

Before Ikki could react, Kallen's face approached instantly, leaving a soft touch on his cheek for less than a second. Then she ignored Ikki and returned to the hospital bed again.

Riolu's sleepiness immediately dissipated. He raised his head and stared at Ikki, who had no idea how to react. He shook his head to get rid of distracting thoughts and looked at the child with interest.

"This...I..."

Ikki's face suddenly turned red, and he rushed out after being stunned for two seconds.

'Ikki... He is just a child. He never expected to do such a thing. It seems that Kallen's kiss goodbye had a big impact on him...'

In this way, Ikki's face was red even when he returned to the hotel, which could not be dissipated at all. Natsu, Yukino and Hai mistakenly thought that he had a fever. When asked why, he did not answer, and took Riolu with him. Entered his room.

Turning on the Glitter Stone, Ikki put the golden Riolu on the bed, threw himself on it, and covered his whole head with a pillow in distress, and only revealed his head when he couldn't breathe.

"I just kissed you, so why should I be so excited?"

Riolu took out some competition information from his bag and threw it on the ground. Looking at Ikki in such confusion, he couldn't help but pat his head.

"Riolu doesn't understand, you are an elf..."

He muttered something quietly and buried his head in the bed again.

"Okay, okay, I don't understand. Who calls you a human... But I think Karen just thinks that you are still young and you have helped her so much, so that's why she kissed you, right?"

Regarding this aspect, Riolu had mentioned it before when chatting with him, and he also knew why Ikki felt shy.Speaking of which, this is all thanks to Yukino and Hai's "good teaching".

There was a misunderstanding in this aspect of Ikki's understanding, but it shouldn't be a big problem. At most, he would be corrected when the time came, so Riolu didn't think much about it.

It was already very late, so they had no choice but to rest first. After everything was packed up tomorrow afternoon, it would be almost time to go back.

Before that, I have to go see Dr. Ohki first...

Riolu looked at Ikki who had just been lying on the bed and fell asleep within 2 minutes. He silently jumped out of bed and turned off the lights in the room. However, he did not jump on the bed again. Instead, he lay down against the wall, his whole body Coil it into a circle and use the tail as a quilt.

"I'm really tired. I'm afraid there won't be many days like this in the future...Why do you feel a little nostalgic?"
