Inside Xiao Zhi's spiritual world, Li Qingfeng and Sabrina were staring at each other.
Li Qingfeng looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Are you... Sabrina?"
Sabrina nodded, remaining silent.
Both were a bit awkward. Li Qingfeng thought that in the original story, Sabrina was made to laugh by Gastly, but now that Gastly was gone, it was probably up to him to make Sabrina laugh. (Just to clarify: Li Qingfeng's storyline is single female lead, no harem.)
Li Qingfeng recalled how in the original series, Gastly would just do a few things and make Sabrina happy. He subconsciously blurted out, "Do you want to hear some bad jokes?"
The moment he finished speaking, he regretted it a bit, as he didn't seem to know any bad jokes.
But his eyes met Sabrina's, and seeing her expectant gaze, he racked his brain to think of something.
After a while, Li Qingfeng finally managed to squeeze out a line: "Poliwrath heard that Muk's liquid would smell very fragrant after being diluted, so he went to smell it. When he came back, he evolved. Can you guess why?"
Sabrina pondered for a long time, then shook her head.
Li Qingfeng cleared his throat, "Ahem, that's because he's now 'Wenxiang Yongshi' (Poliwrath)!"
Xiao Zhi: ...?
"Pfft."
Just when it seemed awkward, Sabrina burst into laughter. She covered her mouth, trying not to make a sound, and it took her a long time to control her emotions.
Seeing Sabrina's reaction, Li Qingfeng continued, "Once upon a time, a young man missed the bus and was extremely Move - Rage. Someone nearby advised him not to be angry, and when the young man heard the reason, his anger subsided."
"Why?" Sabrina leaned in, eager to know the answer.
Li Qingfeng slowly opened his mouth: "Because, there are many buses (Aggron)."
"Hahahahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Sabrina's mind conjured the Pokémon from the Hoenn region, and her laughter was uncontrollable.
As for Xiao Zhi, he released his Charmander and started a fire outside: "It's so cold..."
Li Qingfeng said some things to Sabrina, such as being more discreet outside later, making good use of her Superpower if she encountered bad people, and that she could go to Unova later... (Note: Going to Unova is for the game plot, making a movie.)
After all that setup, Li Qingfeng asked:
"Sister Sabrina, can I ask you a favor? Can you help me see my future, whether I will achieve my heart's desire..."
Sabrina closed her eyes and began to foresee the future.
...
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
...
Before leaving, Sabrina said something that left Xiao Zhi a bit confused: "The future is always changing."
Li Qingfeng remembered this sentence and said firmly, "My heart will never waver."
Sabrina's mother also transformed back into a human from a doll, and the family of three reunited. Xiao Zhi and his two companions left first upon seeing this.
Well, it's not good to disturb other people's family reunions, so it's better to go to the Pokémon Center first.
On the way to the Pokémon Center, Xiao Xia looked at Xiao Zhi with suspicion, as if trying to figure something out from him.
For Xiao Zhi, this kind of gaze made him very uncomfortable, and he said impatiently, "Xiao Xia, why do you keep looking at me?"
Xiao Xia heard this and replied awkwardly, "I just thought you seemed a bit off when you battled Sabrina, and I was worried something happened to you."
"Hmph~ How could something happen to me? I'm destined to become a Pokémon Master. It's not impossible for me to perform exceptionally well."
Xiao Zhi, however, became spirited. With his golden badge, he swaggered down the road, almost ready to tell everyone he met, "How did you know I have a golden badge?"
Brock saw Xiao Zhi Li Ke this and showed a... benevolent smile (?).
It was Li Ke the feeling of watching his child grow up.
After all, he successfully commanded Gengar to defeat Sabrina through his own efforts, which was a huge improvement.
Upon arriving at the Pokémon Center, Xiao Zhi handed his Pokémon over to Nurse Joy for treatment. He then walked to the public phone and dialed Professor Da Mu's number.
Professor Da Mu saw Xiao Zhi's face and asked, "Hello, oh~ it's Xiao Zhi. What's wrong?"
Xiao Zhi looked around, making sure there were no bystanders, then whispered:
"Professor Da Mu, let me tell you. When I was challenging the Fourth Gym, I felt a power, and then I could easily sense the goodwill of Pokémon and humans towards me."
When Xiao Zhi's words reached Professor Da Mu's ears, he fell silent, seemingly pondering Xiao Zhi's situation.
After a moment, Professor Da Mu remembered Oldale Town in the Kanto region. There was once a Aura hero there, and from Xiao Zhi's description, his current situation was very similar to the Wave Guide Power there.
Thinking of this, Professor Da Mu said seriously:
"Xiao Zhi, don't tell anyone else about this. I will help you find a way to control your Aura. Before that, you must not abuse your ability, as it can kill people."
Xiao Zhi nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I promise not to misuse it!"
Professor Da Mu then smiled and pulled Dratini over: "Oh, by the way, you can carry more Pokémon now. Dratini has been showing signs of evolution recently, so I'll send him to you first."
"Okay! Thank you, Professor Da Mu!"
After the machine transmitted the poké ball, Xiao Zhi received Dratini and hung up the phone.
His other Pokémon were all healed. Seeing Pikachu and Gengar, who had recovered their spirits, Xiao Zhi patted their heads: "Thank you all for this battle, truly."
'And Li Dage.'
Hearing that Xiao Zhi didn't forget to thank him, Li Qingfeng waved his hand: 'It's nothing, I should thank you too. If you hadn't told Sabrina that someone was looking for her, I wouldn't have had this opportunity to foresee the future.'
Xiao Zhi asked very curiously. He hadn't eavesdropped on Li Qingfeng and Sabrina's conversation at the time, so he was particularly curious about what they had talked about: 'Li Dage, tell me what the result was, please?'
Li Qingfeng sighed. What Sabrina told him, only he and Sabrina knew: 'Some things, I think it's better if only I know.'
'Oh, okay.' Xiao Zhi nodded, then asked:
'Li Dage, what Pokémon should I catch next? I've already caught Gengar and Dratini, which you suggested before. Now I'm only missing an Aerodactyl. Could it be... that the next one you're going to have me catch is Aerodactyl?!'
Regarding this question, Li Qingfeng thought for a moment and quickly recalled the plot involving a certain Pokémon that was coming soon. So, Li Qingfeng said with a smile: 'It's a secret.'
