"I'm back!"
"Beca Beca!"
Ash and Pikachu shouted loudly, excitedly opened the familiar door and walked in.
"Welcome back."
"Welcome back."
Two female voices came out one after another, and Xiaozhi, who turned around and put on the handle, was slightly startled.
He looked carefully and saw that it was his mother Hanako and the young girl who was still as beautiful as ever.
"Xia Xia?"
Xiaozhi blinked, and Pikachu had already jumped from his shoulder into Xiaoxia's arms, rubbing against him affectionately, "Pikachu~"
"Long time no see, Xiaozhi and Pikachu." Xiaoxia said with a smile.
"When did you arrive, Xiaoxia?" Xiaozhi was a little surprised.
Hanako explained with a gentle smile, "Because she heard from Professor Oak that you would be back soon, so she came here especially to wait for you."
It can be seen that Hanako seems very satisfied with Xiaoxia.
My son has grown up and become an outstanding person.
And it seems to be quite popular.
"Great, you're back safe and sound."
Professor Oak came out next, followed by Togepi and Lulili.
"Long time no see, Togepi."
Xiaozhi smiled and squatted down, and Togepi happily shook his short hands and opened them, "jiogibu~"
"Hahaha, great. Oh, by the way, which Lulili is this?"
Xiaozhi satisfied its request for a hug.
Then Ibrahimovic ran over and greeted Luleli.
"I brought Lulili here specially to show it to Professor Oak."
Xiaoxia smiled and held the baby in her arms, and Pikachu consciously made room and climbed onto Xiaoxia's shoulder.
"This was hatched from the egg that Xiao Jian gave me."
As she said this, Xiaozhi stepped forward and touched the baby's head with a smile, "This seems to be a very well-behaved little fellow. So cute."
"Lulililuli~"
The sound is also very soft.
But speaking of eggs...
Xiaozhi's hand suddenly paused, and he looked at Professor Oak, "By the way, Professor, where is my egg?"
"It's still incubating, but judging from the inspections over the past few days, it should be ready soon."
Dr. Oak thought about it and smiled, "If you want to see it now, I can call Xiao Jian and ask him to bring it over later."
"Then don't bother."
Xiaozhi refused, saying that he had already waited for so long and there was no need to rush.
Moreover, he had originally planned to go to the Oak Research Institute to reminisce with the Pokémon after returning home.
I don't know if everyone is doing well now...
"Come on, I made a lot of food that you like to eat, Xiaozhi."
Hanako interrupted the conversation with a smile.
The suction cup puppet just came out of the kitchen with the last dish in hand, "Bannibanni~"
"Very good!"
Xiaozhi said happily, "Suction Cup Doll, let me help you carry it over."
He really missed the taste of home-cooked meals.
"Bannibanni."
Xiaoxia looked helpless, "Really, Xiaozhi, all you think about is eating. I wanted to hear you talk about your interesting travel experiences."
"Oh, that kind of thing, after eating, I will tell you as much as you want to hear."
Xiaozhi was talking with a smile when a car horn suddenly sounded at the door.
He was slightly startled, then opened the door to check.
Then Dr. Odamaki, Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng got out of the car and waved, "Xiaozhi (Big Brother)!"
"You're here so soon, Xiaoyao, Xiaosheng, and Dr. Odamaki." Xiaozhi greeted everyone one by one.
Xiaoyao walked up to Hanako and took out the gift for the visit, "Hello, good afternoon, Aunt Hanako, this is a little token of my appreciation."
It was made by her mother Mitsuko herself, who specifically told Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng not to be impolite when they came to her house.
Hanako took it and smiled happily, "You're so polite. I even asked you to bring it here specially."
"No, no, no."
Xiaoyao scratched her cheek awkwardly. She didn't know why she felt nervous when she saw Xiaozhi's mother.
Fortunately, Xiaoxia quickly started chatting with Xiaoyao, and the group spent a happy lunch in a joyful atmosphere.
During this time, Xiaozhi shared interesting things about his journey.
Mother Hanako kept picking up food for the two girls with a smile on her face.
Professor Oak sat in a corner with Professor Odamaki, discussing the progress of super evolution research.
They have already contacted doctors in various regions, including the Kalos region.
In the afternoon, Xiaozhi helped Hanako clean up the dishes and hurriedly took everyone to the research institute.
Of course, the first thing is to say hello to Xiaojian.
But he happened to meet a beginner Pokémon and was preparing to feed it.
"Congratulations, Xiaozhi. I watched the Caiyou Conference with the other doctors. Everyone performed very well." Xiaojian congratulated.
"Thank you, Xiaojian."
Xiaozhi responded with a smile.
Xiaosheng has been staring eagerly at the three little ones on the table for a long time.
Although Xiaozhi gave him the Bikoho that he liked, it did not hinder his admiration and love for the three major pets in the Kanto region.
"Great! It's Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur."
The fan leader's eyes were sparkling.
Xiaozhi smiled softly and glanced around.
These three little guys all have good qualifications, except that the little abbot is a little girl.
He looks a bit shy.
"Then I'll leave it to you to get them back into the Poké Balls, Kacchan."
Xiao Jian said with a smile.
Such a good thing naturally made Xiaosheng smile, "Is it okay?"
Children's happiness is so simple.
After getting his consent, Xiaosheng happily picked up the Pokéball on the table and took back the Charmander and Bulbasaur that had finished eating.
When Squirtle saw that all his friends had disappeared, he immediately jumped off the table with tears in his eyes.
"Johnny..."
"Hey, Squirtle!"
In response to Xiaosheng's shouting behind him, Squirtle jumped into the arms of Xiaoyao who had just come up the stairs without looking back, and cried.
You know how to find a location...
Xiaozhi blinked. If this wasn't a little girl, he would have suspected that Squirtle was possessed by Momonosuke.
"Xiaosheng! How can you bully Pokémon?" Xiaoyao frowned and scolded.
"Sister, listen...ah, it hurts!"
Just as Xiaosheng was about to explain, he was hit on the head by Ai's iron fist.
Just when Xiaozhi was wondering whether he should go and say a few words to help Xiaosheng, an unexpected figure walked up the stairs behind Xiaoyao.
"Really? Sure enough, wherever you are, Xiaozhi, there's always noise and bustle."
This has nothing to do with me...
Xiaozhi drooped his eyelids, and the joy of meeting an old friend faded a little. "By the way, why are you here, Xiaomao?"
As far as I can remember, he should be conducting research and exploration in Sinnoh at this time.
Xiao Mao looked at him like an idiot and said, "This is the Oak Research Institute. What kind of stupid question are you asking?"
Emmm, I am speechless...
However, Xiao Mao also knew what Xiao Zhi wanted to ask, so he explained, "It's nothing, it's just that with the help of Professor Yamanashi and Miss Sirona, the first round of investigation went very smoothly..."
"So when he heard that you, Xiaozhi, won the championship of the Caiyou Conference, he hurried back to celebrate for you, hahahaha!"
Professor Oak came up with a big laugh.
A moment of embarrassment flashed across Xiao Mao's face when his thoughts were exposed. He turned his head away and suddenly started coughing.
"oh?"
Xiaozhi smiled and raised an eyebrow.
But I didn't continue on this issue.
Then he turned to Professor Oak and asked, "By the way, Professor Oak, is everyone in the research institute now?"
What he was asking about, of course, was all the Pokémon from the Kanto region to the Fengyuan region.
"Well, Bulbasaur informed everyone early in the morning that you were coming back."
Professor Oak said with a smile.
As one of the earliest babies, it is always so reliable.
Xiaozhi smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll go to the backyard to see everyone."
Hearing this, Xiaoyao Xiaosheng immediately followed Xiaozhi's pace.
All of Ash's Pokémon, it's going to be spectacular!
