This elf world is kind of weird

Chapter 235 The answer is confusion

Then, as the morning light began to rise, a special and rare guest arrived in Philio's home.

He has an outstanding temperament, even if it is just based on his appearance. Compared to Philio, he is also a Hoenn champion who is good at winning in different situations.

A veritable diamond kingpin and fortune boy, one of the outstanding representatives of no-type champions.

"Excuse me for disturbing you, uncle and aunt. I am Philio's friend, Dawu. This is my first time meeting you. Please accept it."

After politely bowing to Judith and sending out a beautifully decorated paper box, Dawu followed Filio, who was still a little confused, up the second floor and into his room.

"Please sit down. The room is a bit messy. I was busy making energy cubes last night, so I didn't have time to clean them up."

Philio casually removed the empty energy cube boxes piled up on the sofa chair, cleaned up a little, and greeted him politely.

Dawu was not polite, he sat down calmly, with a slight smile on his lips, he looked around in the room that was not spacious but very warm, and said softly: "I haven't seen you in a few months, you and your Pokémon." The dream has really grown a lot, Philio. He just went through a battle, and he can still sleep so well."

"Of course, people can't get along with themselves, let alone clean up some scum who have more than enough time to die." Nodding calmly, Philio walked to the table and picked up a bottle of drink, "It's better to say that I'm in a good mood, but sleep more comfortably Yes. Would you like some juice? I snatched it from Joanna's private collection, and it tastes good."

"Then I will be lucky, thank you." Philio's naturalness also made Dawu feel relaxed. He took the juice with a smile, took a sip, and immediately stretched his eyebrows and eyes, "It's really good. I'll go to him later Get some. By the way, why didn’t I see your Pokémon? They all like to stay outside the Poké Ball, right?”

"The little dream monsters have all gone to our school. Yesterday's battle was not too enjoyable, so I asked the principal for morning exercise. They have been a little diligent recently, and it seems that I am a little lazy."

Philio sat down on the soft big bed, unscrewed the cap of the bottle and took a long sip, sighing with satisfaction, and then told the whereabouts of his friends in a leisurely manner.

"But that's okay, otherwise I would have missed it. The first time you came to my house, you definitely didn't want to drink from me, right? There is nothing I need to do, but it doesn't matter."

"Actually, I have the intention of coming to recognize the door, so that I can disturb you more often in the future." Dawu pursed his beautiful lips slightly, and his smile was refreshing and friendly, "However, I do have something to trouble you. It is a very important matter that needs to be dealt with as You, the person involved, provide us with intelligence and analysis.”

"As the person involved... about what, the two big fish you didn't catch yesterday?"

Secretly thinking about the information in Daigo's words, Filio stopped smiling, became a little more serious, and put the juice on the bedside table.

"Yes, about them." When talking about business, Daigo's eyes became calmer and his tone became more solemn. "There were many strange things about the escape of those two people yesterday. Maybe... it also involved the legendary Pokémon. .”

Yesterday at noon, the ship of the Flame Fleet was filled with flames of war.

The champion's attack was swift and fierce. Rao, two mysterious hooded men with many secrets, was well aware of the overwhelming strength gap and did not dare to compete.

Under the psychic control of the sword monster, the cadres of the Flame team who came to rescue became their excellent meat shields.

Staring at Daiwu, who was killing everyone and approaching his position step by step, the two hooded men looked at each other and made a decisive decision.

"withdraw!"

While yelling in unison, the two of them backed away instantly. Commander Chop and Sword and Shield Sword Monster rushed out at the same time, blocking the broken glass in front of them and the rapidly approaching cannon light cannon with difficulty. The meat shield withdrew to a corner of the house.

A blue-purple spar that was exactly the same as the crystal that had just been broken appeared in the hands of another hooded man. Bai Shengsheng squeezed it hard with his five fingers, and the blue glow quickly lit up.

The crystals that gathered like a tower of sand immediately began to collapse, and the powerful super power instantly turned into an indestructible barrier, blocking the charging Mega Metagross.

The powder that looked like fine sand slipped from the palm of the purple-haired hooded man, and in an instant, the huge crystal lost half of its volume, but it was enough.

"Champions of Hoenn, you are the one who beat me this time. It won't be such a good thing next time. See you later!"

Putting down the last harsh words, his tone was no longer calm and confident as before. Instead, the hooded man with a bit of fear and heartache had a cold look in his eyes. Disappear.

In a short time, there was only a small amount of powder left on the ground, and he finally got rid of the control of the sword monster in a trance, but suddenly found that he was facing the remnants of Team Flame, the champion of the alliance.

Going around in a big circle, the tarot cards of fate didn't seem to favor them.

The alternation of hope and despair finally ends in despair.

"That's the way it is. In the end, I only captured the fleeing Flame team, but failed to keep the two mysterious people. The only tangible gain is to confirm the approximate identity of the green-haired woman, although it is not [-]% Sure, but there's a good chance it's one of Team Flare's top cadres, Scientist Barra."

With a deep sigh of deep regret, Dawu punched his thigh with his eyes full of self-blame and guilt.

After listening to Daigo's narration, Philio understood his intention and pondered: "So you came to me to confirm the identities of those two people. There is no problem if the one with green hair is Bara, but if you have purple hair... yours You mean, that’s Claire?”

Dawu nodded silently: "That's right, Miss Nazi who experienced Claire's death with you is far away in the Hezhong area, so I can only ask you to confirm in person at the first time. I hope you will think about it carefully, and you are sure that she is really do you died?"

"My reason tells me that she must be dead. In the face of that kind of destructive power, not to mention Claire who was seriously injured, anyone without the protection of legendary Pokémon would probably... Moreover, after the incident, the alliance We also took samples of the substances there, you know what I mean?”

Filio's words were very polite, but the meaning behind them was self-evident.

For such an answer, Dawu actually already knew it well, and only came to ask with a glimmer of hope.

After receiving a positive reply, he already had the answer in his heart: "I understand. If this is the case, it can only mean that there is another Claire and Barbara. But I am not sure yet. I have to wait for Genji Senior’s test results.”

Philio frowned: "Test?"

"Yes, testing." Dawu took out a small plastic bag containing a little powder, "Senior Genji got a strand of hair from that green-haired woman, and the powder I got, all of which need to be tested to confirm the ingredients. This is my My second question is, do you think Mewtwo would make such a special prop?"

"?"

Seeing Filio's slightly narrowed eyes, Dawu, who felt that he had slipped his words, quickly corrected it: "I didn't mean to doubt Mewtwo, and I didn't mean to offend. There are still several Pokémon with this kind of super power. I just want to rule it out. Let's investigate."

With a slightly relaxed expression, Philio pondered for a while and said vaguely: "...Well, I understand. It's hard to say whether He can make it, but I have never heard of such a prop. It's just that I'm sure He must have this level The instant movement ability, this little trick is not worth mentioning to Mewtwo."

"Hmm...Okay. Let me keep this powder with you for now. If you have a chance to meet Mewtwo, ask about it for me. I will also continue to investigate this matter. Thank you very much for today."

Smiling apologetically, he solemnly placed the small plastic bag in Philio's hand, and Dawu stood up, ready to leave.

"Don't leave in a hurry. You came in a hurry and didn't have breakfast. Eat before you leave."

The moment he turned around, Philio's leisurely voice reached his ears, which made him feel relieved.

"It's true that you haven't eaten, so let's eat some. I've heard that you are very good at cooking. Do you cook?"

Although he had already eaten bread before coming, Daigo still readily agreed to Philio's invitation.

"That's a lot to ask for. I don't cook at home. My mother cooked it. She's much better at cooking than I am. You sit down for a while and I'll go down and serve it." He shrugged nonchalantly and glanced at Daigo with disgust. Philio walked out of the room with his slippers on.

"His relationship with Chaomeng is really good... I can't hear any doubts about it or not."

The sound of footsteps faded away, Dawu breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously touched his flat belly, and said with a wry smile.

At his waist, the elf ball containing Metagross swayed slightly.

"That's right, I'm still being abrupt about this matter. I shouldn't ask such a question. The tone is too harsh, just like doubting Chaomeng."

Even if he didn't show his head, he could guess the expression of his old man at the moment, and shook his head slowly.

"However, do you feel that his temperament seems to be different from a few months ago, like... a little more angular. The squinting of his eyes just now was a bit scary. When I was in the stone market, I still I've never seen his expression like this before, no wonder he was recognized by a proud legendary Pokémon like Mewtwo."

His mind flew to the distance, and Dawu, who was thinking hard, seemed to unconsciously use his reasonable deduction to embark on a path of reasoning that was completely unrealistic.

However, it's not important.

-

Bread, jam, hot milk, plus a little vegetable salad, when they eat together without the dream monster, Filio always eats very simple.

Dawu, who was already full, only stopped after eating a little bit, and looked at Felioswen with a smile, but he ate quickly.

"The way you eat is a bit like an old friend of mine. It looks unpleasant, but it's actually very neat."

"It's just breakfast, and the little dream demons are not here, so there's no need to be delicate, just eat it at noon. Did you find out what's wrong with your stone before?"

"It's a little bit sketchy, and it looks very interesting. It's like there's always a fire burning in the deepest part. I've put it on a display cabinet at home. I'll take you to see it when I have time. How about the training of Emperor Nabo and Big Mouth Baby? Are the notes I gave you before useful?"

"It's pretty good. Now they have two styles, which are very suitable. The next step is to let Emperor Nabo practice the cannon light cannon. Although the water cannon is good, it is a bit scattered."

"It's a good idea. Emperor Nabo still needs more diverse long-range attack methods. Although water cannons are good, they have their own limitations."

"."

"."

After finishing the business, an awkward silence suddenly struck, and a subtle sense of disobedience spread between the two of them.

The gesture of hesitating to speak was reflected in two pairs of bright eyes at the same time.

Blinking without trace, Philio said softly: "You say it first?"

Dawu felt a little embarrassed, slightly hooked his fingers, and straightened his neat temples: "Hmm... Okay. I didn't doubt Chaomeng's meaning about what happened just now. Don't get me wrong, there was something wrong with my expression."

"It's all over. I'm not a petty person."

"Really? I don't think so. Your appearance just now was a bit pervasive. I couldn't believe it when Karuna told me."

"Come on, I'm very magnanimous. At most, I will write you down in a small book, and I won't call you when I encounter a good stone. That big cat is really narrow-minded."

Turning his eyes, there was a playful arc on the corner of his mouth, and Philio said meaningfully.

"Isn't that narrow-minded enough?! I can't pretend that I didn't hear this... Wait a minute, you said Chaomeng? It won't know?!"

As if he heard something great, Dawu jumped up from the sofa with a "swish" as if a spring was stuffed under his butt, his eyes widened.

"You don't look like that perfect champion now." The slightly awkward atmosphere quietly dissipated, and he swallowed the last piece of bread slowly, and Philio teased with a smile, "As for whether He knows, who can say for sure?" Woolen cloth?"

As he spoke, his fingertips lit up with a faint light of super power, and lightly tapped on the corner of his forehead.

"...Your relationship is really good."

After pondering for a long time, Dawu, who felt that he had been counted together, expressed the same emotion as not long ago, but it was full of different meanings.

"You are so different from a few months ago, in every way."

"People will always change, or grow, so do you think it is good or bad?"

"It's not good or bad, I just think you seem more confident and more open-minded."

"Sounds like good words, but from what you say, with this tone, it's not exactly like that."

"You respected me more or less the last time we met, but how is it like this time?"

"Have it?"

"Of course, you just..."

"I mean last time."

"..."

"Just kidding, whether it was last time or this time, I still respect Hoenn's Daigo champion, okay? But if it's a strong and powerful Daigo-san as a friend, it's different. Which kind do you want? ?”

"...Your mouth is really powerful." There was a beautiful arc between the eyebrows and eyes, and Dawu's smile was a little bit happy and a little bit bitter, "Of course it's more natural to be friends... although it's also tiring."

"So. If it's the league champion from Hoenn who comes to work, I will say I have no comment. If it's a friend who comes to me for help, I can guarantee you that this was not done by Mewtwo, because I know very well about his past. What time is doing.”

With his hands crossed and propped on the small table in front of him, Filio looked directly into Daigo's eyes, full of sincerity.

In the small courtyard, the two who were about to say goodbye stood side by side, chatting casually.

"Speaking of which, I'm curious, which red or blue did you choose in the end?"

Before parting, Daigo, who was relieved of the small burden in his heart, recalled Philio's unusual behavior when they first met, and then thought of a series of news related to him. A conjecture arose spontaneously, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity after all. Heart.

"Choose? Only children make choices, and I want them all."

Faced with the question from the soul of Daigo, whom he had just met but was still close to, Filio didn't want to hide it at all, and he didn't feel that he couldn't speak out at all, so he felt confident.

Dawu's complexion was a bit strange: "?"

"how?"

"No, it's nothing, I just think it's very your style and cynical enough."

"No way, it's very serious."

"Will it be difficult?"

“It’s because of the difficulty that the challenge is valuable.”

"Here's what I'm saying. How I look at it, I find it awkward and outrageous..." Looking at Filio's righteous posture, the corners of Dawu's mouth twitched slightly, "I found that you are not the most suitable trainer."

"what is that?"

Philio cast a doubtful look.

"Love Lecturer."

Dawu is serious.

"Come on, can't you ask your world-famous good friend CP Mikoli for advice?" Filio cast a disgusted look at the other party, and then changed the subject, "Oh, no, I remembered that he is also a second-hand swordsman, so that’s okay.”

At the end, an uncontrollable smirk spread across his face.

"I've written it down and will definitely pass it on."

A small notebook appeared from nowhere, and Dawu picked up a pen and pretended to write and draw.

"?"

This time, it was Filio who stared wide-eyed.

"Good guy, you are waiting for me here with big eyebrows and big eyes! You also said that I am narrow-minded, I don't think you are much better! Can we be human?"

"This is to treat the other person with his own way~" Dawu, who had won back the victory, smiled warmly and with a bit of pride, "I'm going back now. By the way, I will give you a small gift after a while. You, remember to sign for it."

After all, with a handsome wave of his hand, he leaped onto the back of the giant golden monster, and Dawu, who has been working in the field of "just take it when you see it" for many years, drifted away.

"This guy... Why is he acting like a kid playing around?" Looking at the back of Tu Zui, Filio shook his head in confusion, "He returned a small gift... and ran away without saying anything clearly. No wonder he is a bachelor even though he is a diamond king."

With that said, he turned around and walked slowly home.

Thinking about the time, the dream monsters who practiced in the morning should have gone home from school.

"...It's so dangerous." Daigo wiped away the non-existent beads of sweat on his forehead and let out a long sigh of relief as he left Filio's sight, "Why did you forget to ask Genji-senpai to bring the stone? Am I as old as him? No? No, no, this is not okay..."

"Meta..."

The Metagross, who was dumbfounded, didn't know what to say, so he could only pretend not to hear, speed up again, and disappear into the distant sky.

The Hoenn champion, who had partially answered his doubts but had new doubts, was also busy with a rare dedication today.

This "action against smuggling" that has lasted for nearly a year will continue until the day when the truth comes to light.

"Still hiding? Come out and help me!"

In the room piled with a lot of debris from last night, Filio was gearing up, but suddenly looked at the empty corner.

The tall lavender figure suddenly appeared, glared at him, turned around and was about to run away, but suddenly froze up.

"You really didn't do this, right?"

Leisurely words were like a binding spell, binding Chaomeng in place.

【? 】

"But it doesn't matter, even if you did it, I don't think we can poke it out."

【…】

"Are you touched? We are good brothers who live and die together. Don't be so polite. Just remember it in your heart."

【...Do you want to be beaten again? 】

Chaomeng, who doubted Mao Sheng (crossed out)'s life, gritted his teeth, and the black line on his forehead was so obvious that it was about to overflow.

The super power spoon quietly condensed, and the dangerous atmosphere began to permeate.

Sitting calmly on the sofa, Philio crossed his legs, completely ignoring the faint (crossed out) threat from the big cat in front of him.

"For the sake of discussion, let's assume that you didn't do this well."

[Should I still thank you? 】

"That's not necessary. It's just a hypothesis. There is absolutely no partiality. I am very fair."

[I told you, it really wasn’t me!It's not like you don't know what I've done... you guy! 】

"That involves a problem." Looking at Chaomeng who was already a little angry, Filio, who felt that he was about to get angry, walked out of the movie-watching mode and slowly sat up straight, his eyes sharp, "I encountered that You noticed it the moment you picked up the bag, right? There is indeed a power that is the same as yours in it. You know it very well, and so do I. But something strange proves that it is not your power, but another unknown power. The existence of identity. Or, the guy hiding behind those two people."

[…That’s right, and it’s neither my power nor that annoying little thing. 】

Nodding solemnly, Chaomeng, who was not experienced in the world but was exceptionally thoughtful, understood everything, and his eyes widened slightly.

【You mean...? 】

"It doesn't matter, the sky is falling, and there is a tall man holding it up." He leaned back casually, hiding his sharp eyes, and Philio became lazy again, and his tone became a bit gentler, "If you have time to spare, Just look for it, but there is no need to be too concerned. There are many capable people, and you will be like a headless fly if you go by yourself. Remember, safety comes first, and nothing is more important than your safety. If you If something happens, I will still be a little troubled. You are a proud guy, so don't be provoked."

【...Hmph, very long-winded. 】

With a soft snort, Chaomeng turned around, hiding the warmth in his eyes, and waved his hands pretending to be bored.

[For a fragile human like you, it’s better not to worry about me. Take care of yourself and let’s go!I was still traveling, which wasted my time. 】

Before the words fell, the blue light flickered, and Chaomeng, who came and went in a hurry, disappeared.

The small plastic bag containing unknown crystal powder on the table also left with Him.

It's easy to say, but in practice, you can easily see the fear and importance in Chaomeng's heart.

"It's true... I thought about living a peaceful life for two days, why is it suddenly not easy? Big cats don't make people worry either."

After sending Mewtwo away, with blurred eyes staring at the ceiling above his head, Filio murmured to himself, raised his right hand slightly, and was trying to catch the little dream monster that sneaked out of the different space.

"March?!"

Startled by the sudden big hand, the little Meng Yao shivered all over in the exclamation.

"The sneak attack is getting better and better." With a smile, he hugged his most trusted partner into his arms, stroked its soft hair, and Philio praised with a smile, "Come back early, take me You overheard the chat with Chaomeng, right?"

"M...Machi~"

The dream demon, who knew his secret was exposed, smiled in a flattering way, and moved sweetly to Filio's face, rubbing it against him.

"It's useless to act coquettishly. But...it's good that you know what happened this time. Although it doesn't seem to have much to do with us, it's not a bad thing to be careful. But don't tell everyone yet. You are the eldest sister, so you have to be able to pretend it's happening in your heart. .”

Gently rubbing Meng Yao's smooth face, Philio didn't care too much, just held it up with gentle eyes.

"March!"

The slightly bulging "small balloon" swung up and down vigorously.

Looking at the little dream monster who can always show a bit of childishness, Philio's mood is much more relaxed, and his delicate eyebrows are slightly raised: "As for us... as long as we continue to become stronger, any conspiracy and tricks will be nothing more than nothing. False."

-

On Route 12, a long and narrow sea path, the speeding train stirred up flocks of birds.

In the empty restaurant, two people were drinking together early in the morning.

It's just that one is milk with a lot of sugar added, and the other is a mug full of beer.

"Goooooooooooo..."

Taking off the heavy knight armor, the hearty Man of Steel Yan Kai drank the chilled wine and was intoxicated by the aroma of malt.

In the blink of an eye, when most of the glass was down, he reluctantly put the glass down and looked at Genji, who was drinking sweet milk slowly.

"This can be regarded as the beginning of our Carlos and Hoenna's cross-regional cooperation to fight crime, Genji-senpai? Although before the chairman gave the order, even our Four Heavenly Kings didn't know anything about it."

"Don't talk about you, I was only informed by Daigo when I was halfway through the boat." The eyebrows were stretched under the moisturizing of sweetness, and the strong face carved by the sea breeze became a little kinder. Genji said from his pocket He took out a cloth bag and put it on the table, "He said, 'There is a junior I will be very interested in.' I must send something for him, but I didn't expect that he would also be involved in his scheme."

"This is..." Through the gap in the cloth bag, the sharp-eyed Yan Kai had already seen what was inside. He looked rough on the outside but a little more showy on the inside than the other two colleagues. He suddenly thought of something and casually said He asked, "The junior you're talking about, wouldn't it be the little guy who also has a tyrannosaurus, right? Your Excellency the chairman and Karunai have a high opinion of him."

"Why do you still need to bring your champion, haven't you seen it?" Genji, who was scheming, did not answer the question, and kicked the ball back to his feet intact.

Yan Kai complained: "It's a pity that we haven't seen each other for a while. The last time it was the tournament, we only met once. Before I came out this time, I had the chairman locked up at the alliance headquarters for a long time."

"It's just right. After escorting the things to Miare and dealing with Daphne, the bossy girl, I can rush back to meet this young man, hand the things to him, and take a look at the big guy. What is the level of this little guy? If there is a chance, it would be good to let him visit our Hoenn in the future, as well as Yahida’s pioneering area."

He picked up the milk and drank it down, and put it on the table with a "boom", Genji's smile was meaningful, and Yan Kai's whole body tightened.

Clearing his throat, he didn't bother to drink when he noticed the problem, and said in a deep voice: "He is a Carlos, a native of Carlos, and a Carlos who has never been to other places."

Genji didn't answer and asked instead: "What's wrong with the Kalos? Aren't Bonnie and Dorasena still Sinnoh?"

"Then you go to Sinnoh to recruit people?!"

Yan Kai, who couldn't hold himself any longer, slapped the table, and the beer in the cup swayed and almost spilled.

"It's not appropriate to go anymore. I'm going to retire soon after all."

Yuanji waved his hands with a smile, and used a thousand pounds to neutralize Yan Kai's aura.

"That's what you said ten years ago... when I was not the Four Heavenly Kings of Carlos." Yan Kai muttered softly, the slander in his heart became worse, but his face remained calm, only a little more serious, "In short , don't make such an idea."

Genji frowned, and he was just saying it in passing. Seeing Yankai's strong reaction, he became more interested: "So important?"

"It's not me, it's our champion and the chairman's attention." Yan Kai, who realized that he was a little too aggressive, calmed down, his eyes as calm as water, "They said that this child has something that none of us have, maybe he can Work wonders in the future, although he is still very young, he will always grow."

"Something that none of you have..." Shaking the empty water glass, Yuanji thought for a moment, and blurted out in the pleasure and relaxation brought by the sweet milk, "You mean the brain... ah no, it's nothing."

At the last moment, the light of reason shines. The older he gets, the more outspoken he becomes. Genji, who is almost arrogant, stops the car.

But the unfinished words are often more lethal.

"..."

Yan Kai, who had just raised the wine glass, fell silent, and small cracks appeared on the wine glass.

"Ah~ I really can't let people pretend not to hear this."

"Da da da"

Gentle footsteps approached from far away, and the graceful woman showed her true face at the door of the dining car.

"I haven't seen you for more than a year. You really learned a lot from your outspoken little girl, Senior Genji, who is not serious enough to rely on his seat to retire."

The smile was still gentle, but the narrowed eyes quietly opened. Dora Sena, who is also the dragon king, rushed over with an extremely dangerous black aura.

He may be said to be rough on the outside but subtle on the inside, but in fact he is also a somewhat careless old knight who can't hide his troubles.

A chef who only thinks about cooking and fighting, and often confuses the two.

And there is no such thing as reason at all, a rough and vulgar battle-crazed anchor.

Think again about yourself who is also a little informal and the champion who is busy filming everywhere.

A pain called "being poked in the sore spot" aroused Doracena's rage.

Carlos and Hoenn's cross-regional joint mechanism to fight crime seems to have encountered some kind of crisis and challenge at the level of trust and dignity before formal negotiations.

And that little fuse was lying on the sofa in the Tower of Refining, resting on his white thigh, searching for the flight number and time of the flight that would take off from Hezhong in the near future.

On the other side, the train at Chaoxiang Town Station also carried a certain evolutionist who had been waiting for a long time, and slowly headed west.

Life is one thing following another, one problem following another.

The trajectories are intertwined at a certain moment, and then dispersed, separated and combined, turning into continuous dismantling fetters.
