Pokémon: Stranger Things

"Chensha, this is..."

"You are too tired, take a good rest first."

Tianman slowly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.She felt that her head was still hurting, and her consciousness was dizzy.Looking around, it was no longer the Japanese style walls of the light red gymnasium, but the soft pale pink wallpaper in the Elf Center ward.

Sitting beside the hospital bed, Chensha was peeling off the apples for her with a fruit knife.Chensha didn't say anything, but handed her the peeled apple.

"...is soft."

Tianman took a bite and found that it was not the crispy taste that he usually eats, but rather soft.

"I like this type of apple better, and it would be best if you can like it too."

Seeing that Tianman lifted his spirits a little bit, Chensha's expression softened a little.

Tianman noticed that beside the bed where he was lying, there was a pink heart-shaped badge and a learning machine.It seems that this is the gym badge and skill learning machine that Ah Ju gave her.

"Dust...we should have won."

Tianman knew the result of her own competition.Before she passed out, she had already decided the outcome with Ah Ju.Tianman cares more about Chensha's game than the reward he deserves.

"Don't worry. With you showing me the way forward, how can I live up to your wish?"

Chensha dug out her badge box from her satchel and showed it to Tianman.In the collection inside, there is a heart-shaped badge of a light red gymnasium.

"If you want to listen, I can also tell you about the process of the game."

"Of course I will."

With such an answer, it seemed like something Tenma would do.If she said she didn't want to hear it, maybe Chensha would feel that she had been transferred.

"Then... I'll tell you. Carefully."

Chensha cleared her throat and began to tell Tianman what happened after she passed out.

Even though Chensha challenged Ah Ju, he understood what Tianman had done.But... No matter what, he couldn't stop worrying about the comatose Tenma.

If the 3v3 gymnasium battle continues, the time will inevitably be delayed for too long.What if Tenma wasn't simply tired?I have to check it out for her...

Tangled in the dust of the two emotions of friends' wishes and worries, it is difficult to make a decision for a while.Ah Ju naturally noticed the state of the dust.Through the mouth of the ninja, Ah Ju expressed his willingness to temporarily change the rules of the gymnasium battle.

Dust only needs to defeat one of Aju's elves, but in contrast, the rules of this gymnasium match will become 1v1.Dust naturally readily accepted.

Facing the Abo monster sent by Aju, Chensha chose the Komadao soldier who had been with him the longest to fight.Although it has the advantage of attributes, it still took a hard fight before finally winning with a slight advantage. .seven

"Can't you go into more detail..."

"Whether it is doing things or telling stories, it is very important to be detailed and appropriate."

Seeing Tianman puffing up her cheeks somewhat dissatisfied, Chensha smiled and rubbed her hair.Even though she said so, after knowing that Chensha had also won, Tenma, who was not good at pretending, could clearly see her expression.

She is like this, the type who will write on her face whatever she thinks in her heart.Sometimes, Chensha is really envious of her.

After recuperating in the ward of the Spirit Center for a day, Chensha decided to embark on the journey again after Tianman swore that he had fully recovered.

And whenever Chensha thinks about where to go next time, where will he go?

Holding a cup of coffee with a lot of toppings in her hand, Tianma said that she already had the right to speak.For some reason, Chensha always likes to bring her to the coffee shop, order a cup of coffee and start flipping through the map.

The first time I came here, I felt very fresh. After all, there is no shortage of cafes in the Galar area, but Tianma has never been there.It's just that there is a lot of coffee, and it feels... not as good as before.

Looking at the cup of pure black coffee in front of Chensha, Tianman threw a sugar cube into it while Chensha was not paying attention.

"Speaking of which, Chensha, why do we always come to the cafe? There are many things here besides coffee, but I've never seen what you order..."

Tianman couldn't take it anymore.She raised her hand like a child about to ask a question to the teacher.

"Is this a problem?"

Chensha picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

"Because the environment of the coffee shop is good, it's suitable for rest. It's too embarrassing to come in without ordering something, so I just order a cup of coffee every time."

As a result, Chensha wanted to borrow the furniture in the cafe with as little price as possible.

Tianman felt that he had thought too much before, and he seemed a little silly.So she thinks that from now on, she will bury her head in drinking coffee and ignore the dust.

Dust continued to focus on the map in the illustrated book.Not surprisingly, their next travel destination will be Red Lotus Town.Today's Honglian Township has been transformed into a seaside resort, and the number of ships heading to the town has also increased.There are also prepared water passages, reserved for trainers with elves who can sail in the water.It's a pity that neither Chensha nor Tianma have such elves in their hands.

Therefore, the only option is to go by boat.It's just that the port for cruise ships to dock is not in Light Red City, but you need to cross Light Red City and go to a port town to see it.

"this place......"

When Chensha was flipping through the map, he was attracted by a place.

Located between Light Red City and Ganggang Town, there is a valley belt, its name is... Dasha Valley.

It should be called the Grand Canyon, right?There will be such a name, maybe the people in the Kanto area have a strange accent?People in various regions of the world mostly use the lingua franca to communicate with each other, but they sometimes use dialects in their hometowns.For example, Tianma, who was born in Galar, speaks the common language with a normal tone, but when she speaks her native dialect, she has an uncontrollable accent.

Stop thinking about the origin of the name of Dasha Valley.Chensha was more concerned about other things.There are many ore distributions in the Dasha Valley, which belong to the rich mining area.And in Dust's memory, the fossils of ancient elves can still be excavated here.

This news was not written on Dasha Valley's network introduction, and only a small number of people should know it at present.As a fossil scientist, his father would probably understand this.So....

Perhaps, there is another person who also understands this, and Chensha can still find him.

"Tianma. Without further ado, we should go."

Chensha quickly beckoned the waiter to come over to pay the bill, and was about to walk out the door with her satchel on her shoulders.As a result, Tianman could only gulp down the rest of his coffee, and followed immediately.

"...Sorry, Mr. Baoba. I came to disturb you at this time."

Chensha made a special trip to visit the home of Baoba, the director of the hunting zone.He still remembered how he lost his composure before, so he seemed a little embarrassed to meet this time.

"It's okay, kid. If you need the old man's help, just say it."

Baoba still maintains the kindness of the past.Seeing that he didn't care about his previous gaffe, Chensha mulled over his words and told him his request.

"Actually, Mr. Baoba. You met my father, so... can you help us go to the Dasha Valley..."

There are also many fossils and ores in Baoba's collection room, and it is clear from a glance that he is also a person who is well versed in this.With his help, maybe Chensha and Tianman can go to some places in the Dasha Valley that are difficult for normal tourists to visit.

Baoba narrowed his eyes, and he looked at the dust carefully for a while.Noticing the old man's gaze, Chen Sha looked at him without fear.

In any case, he will not let go of any chance to meet his father.Chensha has many things to resolve with her father....

"I know what you mean, kid. I'll give this to you."

Baoba turned around and walked towards his bedroom.After a while, he took out two bills.

"Take these. When you get to Dasha Valley, report my name to the manager there. If you're lucky, you might still meet that kid."

"Mr. Baoba, really... thank you very much."

After accepting the receipt handed over by the old man, Chensha bowed solemnly to thank him.Perhaps his previous behavior was mostly out of politeness, but at this time, Chensha was sincerely thanking Baoba who was willing to help him.

"You're welcome, just take it as the old man's kindness. Well, let's go quickly, children. The sooner you arrive, the better."

After finishing speaking, the old man turned around and walked upstairs.

Chensha took Tianman to say goodbye to the old man's back, and walked out of the old man's residence.In front of the window on the second floor, Baoba watched the two children drifting away.

"I'm old, I don't want to see this kind of scene anymore. Is it good or bad at the age of a child to keep pursuing it?"

The old man turned to look at the fossils in the collection cabinet, and then said nothing.
