Pokémon that goes with the flow

Chapter 161 Library in the Forest 11

When did I say I wanted to conquer Gengar? !

After hearing Xiaozhi's words, Hoshino immediately opened his eyes in shock. Question marks kept popping up in his mind. He didn't understand why the topic suddenly changed like this. He subconsciously looked at Guisi beside him, only to find that he had an expression as if he was watching a show.

Seeing this scene, Hoshino finally understood where the weird feeling just now came from.

This guy is at it again...

I deliberately said "help Gengar leave" instead of "want to take Gengar away", and even added that I like Gengar at the end. Doesn't this sound to others like I want to conquer Gengar!

Facing Hoshino's resentful gaze, Guisi put on the sunglasses he had taken out from nowhere and began to enjoy himself as if he was basking in the sun. During this period, he raised his eyebrows to express his gratitude and did not misinterpret Hoshino's words at all. apology.

The latter clenched his fists, but after thinking about the strength gap between himself and the big black ball in front of him, he finally loosened his hands.

He tried his best to brainwash himself: Don't be angry, don't be angry, your hair will fall off when you are angry, you will become ugly when you are angry, you will...

Perhaps it's because Guisi is born with a somewhat sarcastic physique, and coupled with its tendency to tease people, even Hoshino, who has always been good-tempered, always gets his blood pressure to soar.

Seeing Hoshino with his head buried in silence, Xiaozhi and others thought that Hoshino was shy. After all, Xiaoxing is an introverted child, so he must be embarrassed to speak his mind.

Thinking of this, Xiaoxia smiled slightly, put her hands behind her back, and looked at Hoshino with encouraging eyes, "Now that you have met the Pokémon you like, don't miss it easily~, if you miss it like this That’s such a pity~!”

"You're right~!" Xiaogang nodded and added in agreement: "No matter whether you can successfully conquer it or not, you still have to try it first~ You have to be brave enough to convey your feelings. This is also the reason for being a Pokémon. The only way for a trainer to go.”

After saying that, Xiaogang smiled encouragingly at Hoshino.

After hearing the two people's completely misunderstood words, Hoshino slowly raised his head and looked at them. He happened to meet the expectant eyes of Xiaozhi and others, and the words he was about to explain were stuck in his throat.

It's over...

Missed the best time to explain...

To explain now would mean betraying their good intentions and embarrassing them...

......

......forget it......

Hoshino sighed depressedly in his heart and gave up any further attempts to defend himself. But at this moment, the initiator of this farce started laughing and kept circling around the girl in front of him who was sweating.

"Hehe~, it seems that Xiaoxing can't wait to conquer that guy~..." When Guisi said this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared and changed to a serious expression, quite a bit... He seemed to hate the fact that iron cannot become steel, "Really, if you want to conquer a new Pokémon, you can't be happy~, at least smile~"

Hoshino slowly turned his head to look at Guisi. There was no trace of laughter in his standard smile. The tic-tac-toe symbol popping up on his forehead seemed to accuse Guisi of how you had the nerve to say this.

In this regard, Guisi seemed to have not seen Hoshino's sad smile, and nodded with satisfaction, "Well~, very good, this is decent~! Hehe~!"

Hoshino: "..."

Looking at Hoshino who no longer wanted to speak, he realized that he might have gone too far. The smile on Guisi's face also faded a little. He turned into a palm and wanted to touch the girl's head to express comfort, but ended up lying on top of him. Scorpio glared and had no choice but to retract his palms.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry~, this joke is a bit serious, so I won't tease you~..." Guisi apologized and smiled, his tone was not as frivolous as before, and became much more steady. , "After all, you, the Pokémon trainers, need to make your own decisions about subduing Pokémon. If you really don't want to subdue that guy, you can't force it. I'm sorry~..."

Guisi's tone was sincere, and for it, which had always been playful, this was already a very serious apology.

After hearing Ghost's apology, Hoshino still didn't speak. It wasn't that he was still angry with Ghost. After all, after learning that ghost Pokémon, especially the thousand-year-old Ghost in front of him, like to play tricks on people, Hoshino He doesn't mind their pranks anymore, and even cooperates with their performances.

Hoshino has always been very tolerant of behaviors that are almost biological instincts, not to mention that their pranks are harmless. They can do whatever they want, and Hoshino doesn't mind playing with them.

And Hoshino didn't reply in time because he was still thinking about the last words Guisi said... Are you willing to conquer Grandpa Gengar...

In fact, Hoshino never thought about subduing Gengar from the beginning, but ever since Guisi mentioned it as a joke, he had already begun to subconsciously think about subduing Gengar, because he discovered... I can't find a reason to refuse...

Perhaps because of the habitual thinking he has developed since childhood, Hoshino will always habitually hold a negative attitude toward what he wants, and then look for reasons not to do it. Finally... I really don’t want it anymore…

This is also one of the important reasons why Hoshino has no interest in anything. His failure to take the initiative to conquer new Pokémon is largely due to this.

But this time the situation was different. Hoshino tried to convince himself with the reasons he had given up on capturing Pokémon before, such as his personality might not be compatible, he might not be able to take care of it, and realistically, he didn't have any extra money. .

But now that Hoshino has put these questions into conquering Gengar, he finds that...it feels okay? It doesn't seem that serious...

The problems I encountered before seemed to be no problem at this moment, and even if there were problems, I could easily convince myself.

Hoshino felt that his heart was beating very fast now, and his cheeks were starting to feel hot. He suddenly remembered what Xiaogang said when he was still in the Pokémon Wild Area. Before you can conquer a Pokémon, you need to want that Pokémon first. Dream...then...I should really want to become a traveling companion with Grandpa Gengar...

The excitement of confirming his idea didn't last long, the temperature in his head began to slowly dissipate, and Hoshino's eyes slowly dimmed...

...But, would Grandpa Gengar be willing to be my traveling companion...
