Pokémon Heart Journey

After confirming the next route, Xiaozhi came to the phone booth again, but this time, there were only him and Xiaoyang, and the person they wanted to contact was no longer Yu Longyuan, but Xiaozhi's mother Hanako.

Soon the call was connected. A young woman in floral green pajamas rubbed her sleepy eyes, yawned lazily, and said softly, "I'm very happy, Mom, that you could call me, Xiaozhi, but could you please call me at a better time next time?"

Xiaozhi scratched his face embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, Mom, I will be more careful next time."

But the other party obviously didn't want to let Xiaozhi go, and continued: "It's already this time, Xiaozhi, you haven't gone to bed yet, this is a very bad habit. If you do this again next time, I, your mother, will... Oh!"

"Ok?"

Just when Hanako wanted to continue educating Xiaozhi, she suddenly paused. Then, Xiaoyang keenly noticed that there was a gleam of disbelief in the other's eyes, as if he had seen something incredible.

When he saw his mother suddenly froze and stared at him, Xiaozhi scratched his head in confusion and said, "What's wrong, Mom? Is there something on my face?"

Hanako, who had come to her senses, waved her hands awkwardly and said, "No, nothing, nothing. I just think you seem to have lost weight again. Have you eaten well?"

After hearing what Hanako said, Xiaozhi didn't care. He thought that she was just worried about him, so he patted his chest and said proudly: "Don't worry, Mom, don't you know me? I will definitely eat well every day. Xiaoyang and the others are all good cooks. Sometimes Mr. Keith will cook for us. I didn't expect that a driver like him would have so many..."

Although the two seemed very natural when talking, Xiaoyang keenly noticed that Hanako seemed to be hiding something, and couldn't help but frowned.

Aunt Hanako in this world is indeed not an ordinary housewife. She must have seen something from Xiaozhi that we don’t know. When she talked to her before, she was very natural, but now she behaves so flustered.

Yes, in Xiaoyang's eyes now, Hanako's performance was really too panicked. He had seen it before when Xiaozhi and Hanako were talking on the phone. Although the content of their conversation that time was similar to that of ordinary people, the other party seemed very calm, and even had a feeling that she had known everything for a long time, but now it seemed a little deliberate.

At this moment, Xiao Yang couldn't help but think in his heart that the other party was indeed coming for Xiao Zhi, but what on earth did he do to Xiao Zhi? Wait a minute, should I knock on Aunt Hanako's side? Looking at her, it was obvious that she knew about it.

After the two sides chatted for a while, Hanako asked, "Okay, Xiaozhi, why did you come to see me so late? And why is Xiaoyang the only one here? Where are Shengdai and Xiaoyuan?"

When Xiaoyang heard Hanako mention him, he immediately came back to his senses and nodded at her.

"Oh! By the way, we actually came here to ask about the situation of Pikachu and Pidgeot. Sundae and Xiaoyuan have gone to rest," Xiaozhi replied immediately.

Hanako smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiaopi and Xiaobi are doing well and are almost recovered. Now I am helping them to recuperate and do some 'rehabilitation exercises'. They will be back to you soon."

"Really? That's great," Xiaozhi said excitedly after hearing Hanako's words. After all, he hadn't seen Pikachu for a long time and he really missed it.

"It's a pity that you fought at the wrong time. Xiaopi and the others are already fast asleep. Otherwise, they would be very happy to see Xiaozhi and Xiaoyang."

"Oh, is that so? But it doesn't matter. We will see each other again sooner or later anyway." After hearing Hanako's words, Xiaozhi felt a little regretful. After all, they came here just to see how Pikachu and the others were doing. But he still cheered up and said.

"That's all for now, Mom. You should have a good rest too," Xiaozhi said and was about to hang up the phone.

Hanako on the screen immediately said, "Wait a minute, you are too impatient. I finally waited for you to call your mother, but you're going to hang up so soon?"

Hearing the other party say this, Xiaozhi felt a little guilty. Thinking about it carefully, he realized that he rarely called home since he went out to travel, so he said apologetically: "Sorry, Mom, I really should call you more often. I will contact you every time I arrive in a city next time."

Hearing what Xiaozhi said, Hanako felt a little relieved in her heart, but she still shook her head and said, "Mom is happy that you think this way, but it's not necessary to be like this. No matter what you want to do, Mom will definitely support you. You have your own journey and life."

At this point, her eyes softened. "I know that even if I tell you, you will definitely rush into those dangers on your own. If you don't do that, you are not Xiaozhi. But I don't want to hear the news that my son is injured or even in trouble one day. So if you encounter anything, you must tell me the first time, even if I can't give you much help."

"If you feel tired one day and want to stop, just go home and see your mother. She will definitely prepare a hot meal for you."

Hearing Hanako's words, Xiaozhi couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat and tears welled up in his eyes. He said with a trembling voice, "Don't worry, Mom. I will definitely take good care of myself."

Xiaoyang on the side simply turned around and wiped away his tears silently.

Hanako nodded gently, then looked at Xiaoyang beside her and said, "It's really late now, let's stop here for today, but I still have something to say to Xiaoyang, Xiaozhi, can you step aside for a moment?"

"Ugh?"

Hearing what Hanako said, Xiaozhi couldn't help but feel a little confused, and Xiaoyang who was mentioned also turned his head strangely, very curious about what Hanako wanted to say to him?

After a while, looking at Xiaoyang who was walking over, Xiaozhi asked curiously: "What did mommy say to you, Xiaoyang?"

Xiao Yang just shook his head silently and said: "It's nothing, he just told me to take good care of you. After all, I am the oldest among you now."

"Is that so?" Xiaozhi did not doubt Xiaoyang's words.

But what he didn't notice was that the moment he turned his head, Xiaoyang looked at him with an extremely complicated look.
