Chapter 156 The Scheming Cat
After a leisurely afternoon, Xia Mu and the others settled into the villa of Cattleya.
Although Xia Mu didn't quite understand why Cattleya's villa had so many rooms.
However, since she could live alone, Xia Mu happily followed the housekeeper to her room.
Then, as night fell, Natsuki released the video he had previously filmed in Kagome Town.
Although most of the experiences from the youth championships were broadcast on television, just as some people enjoy watching behind-the-scenes footage of movies, Xia Mu's videos still have a market.
So, Xia Mu, thinking he could scam as much as he could, uploaded the video online.
It's up to you now, Xiaoming!
Xia Mu hoped that the exciting battle between himself and Xiao Ming would earn him more clicks.
However, Xia Mu didn't worry about it much.
After all, Xia Mu is now a rich man. He has become so arrogant that he has to add sausage and egg to his instant noodles and dares to order drinks at restaurants when he goes out.
While she wouldn't look down on such a small amount of profit, Xia Mu is now indifferent to this episode.
Not to mention, compared to these trivial matters, Xia Mu had more important things to do at this moment.
That is, Yi Yi and the two little ones had a good talk about how they secretly stayed up late last night to watch TV series.
"Sleep during the day, play at night!"
Xia Mu was heartbroken.
"You'll go bald if you keep doing this! Shin-chan, do you want to go bald?!"
As he spoke, Xia Mu picked up a fallen hair from Xin Ye Miao's body.
"Tell me, do you want to go bald? Look in my eyes!"
"Meow (No!)"
Looking at the fur in Xia Mu's hand, the cat's head almost shook out a blur.
I don't want to go bald, meow!
Thinking about what she would look like bald, Xin Ye Miao covered her head with her little paws, unable to hide the fear on her face.
She simply couldn't imagine what it would be like to have her head completely bald.
So, Xin Ye Miao immediately patted her chest and made a guarantee.
"Meow!"
I'm going out for a run later to burn off some energy, and then I'll go to bed early.
However, Xia Mu felt that Xin Ye Miao's performance seemed a bit exaggerated, and it looked strangely familiar.
But Xia Mu didn't think much of it. After all, he still had a difficult night owl in front of him—the well-informed Green Vine Snake 1.
"despair!"
Sleeping during the day and playing at night is also a regular way of life, isn't it?
I'm just using a different time zone's biological clock!
Snake Sister's self-righteous demeanor reminded Xia Mu of his own repeated failures to learn from Officer Jenny's teachings.
Xia Mu knew that, unlike the cat, Snake Sister was more responsive to gentle persuasion than force.
Then, Xia Mu burst into tears.
"Sob sob sob, this reversed day and night schedule is bad for your health! If you, Snake Sister, suddenly die, how will Cat and I survive? What will we eat and drink?!"
"......
The Green Vine Snake was speechless.
Hello, you're a trainer too. However, Natsuki's moves are indeed very useful.
Even though Qing Teng Snake knew that Xia Mu was faking her tears, after hearing what Xia Mu said, she couldn't help but think of Xia Mu and Xin Ye Miao's usual unreliable behavior.
So, Sister Snake sighed.
"Tap (I give up—)"
Qing Teng Snake dared not imagine what Xia Mu and Xin Ye Miao would be like now if she hadn't chosen to travel with Xia Mu.
Without his care, would these two guys be eating instant noodles every day? So, the soft-hearted Green Vine Snake chose to admit defeat and handed the phone to Xia Mu.
Although nothing was said, the meaning of the Green Vine Snake was quite clear.
You can manage this phone from now on. Seeing this scene, Xia Mu, who was pretending to cry, curled the corner of his mouth.
Get it right!
The Green Vine Snake naturally noticed Xia Mu's subtle movements.
However, the compromise was because she cared. Snake Sister didn't pay attention to Xia Mu's little actions, but instead looked at Xia Mu with a doting gaze.
That's what happens when I choose you as my trainer.
However, seeing this heartwarming scene, Shin-Ye-Miao, who had just patted her chest and made a promise to Natsuki, suddenly looked dejected.
Ah, are you really not staying up late tonight?
The cat originally just wanted to fool the snake, but it didn't expect the Green Vine Snake to actually do it.
Therefore, Shin-Ye-Nyan was very disappointed.
"Meow (I fooled you completely, how could you surrender so easily?!)"
She had originally planned to watch other Pokémon-themed TV series and movies today.
But at this moment, Shin-chan completely forgot about the trainer who was still standing next to her.
"Oh, I see—"
Xia Mu grabbed Xin Ye Miao by the back of the neck.
"Double the training tonight!"
"Meow (No, meow!!)"
The cat flailed its limbs helplessly, but could not escape the trainer's large hand.
Seeing this, the Green Vine Snake curled its lips and followed with light steps.
"Ta (stupid cat)!"
The next morning.
Haruka and the others took Mitsuko out shopping to experience the local customs and culture of Unova, while Natsuki stayed at the villa with Cattleya to learn how to use superpowers.
Kitty, can you hear me?
"Meow!"
Where's the sea lion, Qiuqiu?
"ball!"
【very good!】
Xia Mu nodded in satisfaction. Although she couldn't talk directly to the cat and the sea lion, Xia Mu was still very happy at this moment.
"So—the next step is to battle against weight loss!"
"Ball~"
The sea lion, Qiuqiu, has a problem with it.
She didn't think she was fat at all, since her appearance hadn't changed much from before.
However, Xia Mu disagreed with Popplio's point of view: "You have to understand, Pokémon accumulate energy before evolving, and their appearance changes after evolving. You don't look any different now, but when you evolve into Popplio, the heat will be released, and you might really turn into a ball!"
As she spoke, Xia Mu also found many photos online for Qiuqiu the sea lion to see.
Wobbuffet as big as a bucket, and Arcanine with several layers of fat hanging from its chubby belly—
While being chubby can be cute, this appearance is still a bit too much for a chubby sea lion!
"ball!"
The sea lion, Ball Ball, immediately perked up.
Trainers, let's fight side by side!
Compared to the two little ones who were gradually being led astray by Xia Mu, the newly born Qiuqiu sea lion seemed exceptionally innocent.
She completely believed everything Xia Mu said—
New Leaf Cat was eager to try it.
This girl is so naive, I could easily swindle all her pocket money!
Then, before Shin-Ye-Nyan could get close, Natsuki grabbed Shin-Ye-Nyan by the back of the neck.
"Meow?"
Shin-yeon-nyan flattened her ears and looked at Natsuki with her big, watery eyes.
What's wrong?
The cunning cat tried to play dumb, but Xia Mu wouldn't be easily fooled. "Don't use your bad intentions on your companions!"
"Meow!"
Shin-Ye-Miao didn't argue at all. She nodded and then leaned directly on Natsuki's shoulder.
However, judging from Xin Ye Miao's eyes, which were still wandering around, this little guy was still harboring a lot of mischief.
in fact.
Among all of Natsuki's Pokémon, Nerubian and Snivy, due to their own personalities and Natsuki's influence, both have a bit of a cunning side.
However, they have different inclinations.
New Leaf Cat loves playing pranks, while Green Vine Snake retaliates when someone provokes it.
As for the other Pokémon, they can all be considered in the simple and honest category.
Although Blacksmith likes to fight and steal things and believes in subduing others by force, she is actually a very simple Pokémon, especially after evolving and increasing her strength. Now, all she can think about is making the hammer heavier.
As for the final clay giant, needless to say.
This silent giant was always a hardworking and conscientious ox in the team, honest, simple, and obedient.
As time goes by.
After mastering the basics of telepathy, Xia Mu, like a child who had just received a new toy, just wanted to find a good place to use this ability.
Excited, Xia Mu quickly said goodbye to Gadriya, left the villa, and headed to the battle club in Ripple Town.
Because Ripple Town is a well-known summer resort in Unova, even though it is just a small town, its population is comparable to that of many large cities, not to mention that it is summer now, with a large number of tourists and trainers flocking in.
So when Xia Mu entered the Lianzhen Battle Club and saw the densely packed crowd, he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Wow, so many people!"
"Meow!"
Although shocked by the number of trainers, this scene also made Natsuki feel that he might soon be able to find a suitable opponent.
So, after entering the information about the Sea Lion and the type of opponent he wanted to find into the computer in the lobby, Xia Mu sat down in the lobby and waited.
Just as Xia Mu had expected, he soon heard his name on the radio.
"Please prepare for battle in area B-1, Natsuki! Please proceed, Natsuki—"
Amidst the repeated announcements, Natsuki, carrying the Sea Lion and with Shin-Ye-Nyan on her head, arrived at the B-1 battle arena. Then, upon arriving at the arena, Natsuki noticed the strange expression on the referee's face when he saw her.
Could they be my fans?
This was Xia Mu's first reaction.
However, Xia Mu's guess was actually half right.
The referee had indeed watched many of Natsuki's match videos, but not because he liked them; it was just that many people in the United States Referees Association were sharing videos about Natsuki.
From the "hiding behind the referees" that startled all the referees in Unova, to the referees looking disheveled after Natsuki and Akira's weather battle.
Natsuki has sparked considerable discussion within the Unova referee community.
Some radicals even went so far as to shout the slogan "Xia Mu is the referee's lifelong enemy".
Thinking of all this, the referee looked at Xia Mu and couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow and lament.
Why is it really this Natsuki?!
He had a bad feeling when he saw that one of the opponents was named Xia Mu. He even tried to switch teams, but was refused by the other referees.
Now, looking at Natsuki with the new leaf cat on his head, he gave up.
Membrane passed.
Even so, he decided to fight for himself.
So, before the battle began, he deliberately talked a lot of nonsense.
"Battles will be conducted in a 1v1 format. The match ends when one player's Pokémon is unable to battle! During battle, the referee can be used as a shield, and the range of your moves should ideally be limited to the battlefield!"
Then, the referee waved his right hand.
"The match begins!"
