Diancie began to translate what Grovyle had just said for everyone.
Grovyle meant that a few months ago, they found themselves in this strange environment.
They had thought they could continue living carefree just like before.
But later, they encountered some humans, and they were so strange. As soon as they saw us, some would scream, and others were afraid.
At first, we didn't think much of it, but then many more humans came and suddenly attacked us for no reason.
So we fought back, and until now, many friends have been injured because of it.
And Bulbasaur also got lost and separated a while ago because of this; it couldn't find the others nearby no matter what.
...
After listening, Fei Xiao's expression remained calm; it was basically what she had guessed.
However, the people in the live stream were not as calm.
(Wait, isn't this distorting the facts! It's clearly them invading us humans!)
(Exactly! We were just acting in self-defense!)
(Use your brains, people above. I think it doesn't seem to be lying.)
(Come to think of it, I think I once encountered a Pokémon, but I was too scared at the time and ran away, yet it didn't seem to attack me.)
(Hard to say, don't jump to conclusions, be careful about getting into legal trouble.)
(But they sound so pitiful!)
(But I heard that foreign countries are already almost in total war.)
(Sister Fei Xiao, give us an explanation!)
...
Fei Xiao didn't rush to address the comments and continued to ask.
"So you want to find a place that is far away from humans?"
"Chia."
Grovyle shook its head, denying this suggestion.
"After coming to this place, besides the attacks from humans, there is another point."
"That is, the food in the surrounding environment is very scarce compared to before."
"This is the reason why everyone is so determined to leave."
Fei Xiao rested her chin on one hand, understanding in her heart.
"I see. Although the world map has expanded and many Pokémon have descended upon the world,"
"these newly added environments either don't have berries or they haven't ripened yet."
"This is indeed a difficult problem."
Meng Xi also thought of something at this moment.
"So you also tried to go to human cities to find food!"
"After all, that's how I met my Pokémon."
"It's just that others..."
The words stopped there, and although the rest wasn't said, everyone understood clearly.
"No wonder the news reports say things like Pokémon causing chaos in downtown areas."
"They might just be trying to find something to eat, but they were misunderstood by humans."
Lin Siyu's expression was a bit tense, but she instantly relaxed.
At least she hadn't done anything to harm Pokémon, because it was clearly she who had been hurt.
(Come to think of it, some Pokémon really didn't cause destruction after coming to the city; it looked more like they were searching for something!)
(Case solved! So they were here to find food.)
(Wuwuwu, we are so cruel! Pokémon are so cute, how could we hurt them.)
(Where did this saint come from? What if they hurt people when they are unhappy? We were just taking precautions.)
...
"Alright, that's enough!"
Fei Xiao stared at the comments with a headache and simply muted the chat.
"These problems have already appeared, and we can't change that."
"We can only correct our own views and make choices for the future."
"Either we continue to clash with Pokémon, or we choose to understand and accept them, just like everyone has seen."
After speaking, Fei Xiao ignored the live stream and returned her attention to what was in front of her.
Rumble~
Just then, several rumbling sounds echoed.
They were exceptionally clear in this quiet environment.
The corner of Fei Xiao's mouth twitched as she looked at the Little Loli beside her.
"Didn't you just eat a few hours ago? And you just ate a few berries, why are you hungry again?"
Lin Siyu's cheeks flushed red, and she was so embarrassed she wanted to dig a hole and hide.
She said somewhat dissatisfied, "I'm still growing, isn't it normal to digest quickly?"
Meng Xi's mouth tilted, her eyes filled with disdain.
"Heh? Growing?"
"A twenty-something-year-old legal loli; even if you were given a few hundred more years to develop, it would be a waste of effort."
Lin Siyu: ╰(‵□′)╯
"Ah, yes, yes, yes."
Lin Siyu suppressed her agitation and crossed her arms over her chest.
She just shook her arms from time to time, causing waves to rise continuously.
This move seemed to say nothing, yet it seemed to say everything.
Meng Xi:...
Rumble~
Hmm?
Lin Siyu hurriedly waved her hand to indicate it wasn't her, "It wasn't me."
If it wasn't her, then it was...
Rumble~
Their gazes turned in unison toward the somewhat embarrassed Grovyle.
Its originally green face was tinged with a hint of red.
"Then let's sit down and talk while we eat."
After saying this, Fei Xiao didn't care whether the other party agreed or not, and took out several disassembled parts from her bag and started fiddling with them.
Lin Siyu and Meng Xi kept taking out piles of snacks and various kinds of fruits from their bags.
Grovyle was still a bit hesitant at first, but seeing that the other Pokémon were already sitting calmly and waiting to start eating, it stopped dawdling.
It walked slowly and sat down with Bulbasaur.
Fei Xiao quickly assembled a small machine for making Pokéblocks; from the outside, it looked a lot like a blender.
"You guys eat the berries first, I'll make you some Pokéblocks."
Fei Xiao said, took a few berries, and started the synthesis.
There was no other way; this device was convenient to carry, but it had to be operated manually.
As for the two people on the side, they were a bit strange at first; why didn't they remember putting so many strange-looking berries in their bags?
They simply stopped thinking about it and thoughtfully handed Grovyle some of the food they liked, such as potato chips.
Grovyle hesitated for a few seconds and finally accepted it.
After tasting a few bites, it felt it wasn't bad; it was a flavor it had never tried before.
...
A few minutes later.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, come and try it!"
Fei Xiao took a plate filled with many colorful Pokéblocks.
Everyone couldn't help but light up.
These Pokéblocks were indeed cube-shaped, and their colorful appearance was very eye-catching.
Fei Xiao quickly distributed the Pokéblocks suitable for each Pokémon.
Diancie and the others took a bite, and their expressions froze instantly.
"Melo!"
"seed!"
"This is too delicious!"
The Pokémon's eyes lit up, and they no longer restrained themselves and began to wolf down the food.
After seeing this, Grovyle tried a bite and was then shocked.
This was simply the most delicious food it had ever eaten.
So it also joined in on the wolfing down.
The people in the live stream and Lin Siyu and the other person were very curious about what these Pokéblocks tasted like when they saw this scene.
While thinking about it, they saw Fei Xiao take a bite of an Pokéblock.
Lin Siyu:...
Meng Xi:...
"What's wrong?"
Fei Xiao continued chewing, but why were the two of them looking at her so strangely?
Lin Siyu pointed at the Pokéblock in Fei Xiao's hand in disbelief and said.
"Um, Sister Fei Xiao... what you're eating is..."
Fei Xiao didn't react for a moment; what was wrong with eating the fruits of her own labor?
After looking at the Pokéblock in her hand a few times, she suddenly realized something in her mind.
A blush slowly rose on her neck, and she said angrily.
"What are you thinking! We can all eat berries, why can't we eat them after they've been processed!"
...
Feeling Fei Xiao's anger, the two couldn't help but feel a bit awkward.
They seemed to have really misunderstood, after all, they knew Fei Xiao's true identity.
When they saw Fei Xiao take a bite of the Pokéblock, they couldn't help but imagine a fluffy white...
Cough cough cough
Thinking of this, the three people, who were fine before, all had more or less shameful and angry expressions on their faces.
——————————
The recent chapters may be relatively slice-of-life.
After all, the beginning of a normal Pokémon novel is only now starting to be formally revealed.
However, in a few chapters, it will be Fei Xiao's next act.
