Chapter 229 What do you mean by "that's not a Pokémon"?
As the sun sets and dusk settles, the world begins to darken.
Li Luochen glanced at the time, called back the baby tortoise, baby giardier, and cosmog that he had temporarily left at the coffee shop, and then suggested to Katishia, "It's getting late, let's go to the little restaurant you mentioned."
"Um……"
Katishia nodded gently, got up and walked to the side of the street, and waved to summon a small boat.
This is a water city, and boats are often needed for travel.
The boatman rowed, carrying the two into the depths of the alley where lights were beginning to come on.
The small boat moved slowly forward.
Li Luochen and Katishia sat facing each other.
Katishia's drunkenness had subsided somewhat, but she still couldn't help but blush slightly when Li Luochen's gaze fell upon her.
They'd only known each other for a day, yet he saw things so openly and directly...
She seems like the somewhat assertive type...
In the afternoon at the coffee shop, Li Luochen learned about Katishia's family situation from her.
She has two parents and is an only child.
This surprised Li Luochen a bit.
Latios isn't here?
I thought every Latias would have a brother/brother Latios.
Now it seems that Katishia's situation might be a bit unexpected.
But this is fine too.
After all, many Latios are sister-complex or sis-complex.
If I were to take Katishia away rashly, and if she had an older or younger brother, I might find her a bit difficult to manage.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing that Li Luochen had suddenly fallen into deep thought, Katishia asked curiously.
"I'm wondering if I should go somewhere else after the carnival tomorrow."
Li Luochen gave a half-truthful answer.
After all, I was indeed planning to go somewhere to explore.
Try to win over Katishia within two days.
For Li Luochen, who had captured so many Pokémon, this was a trivial matter.
"Where...where should we go? We'll see! Anyway, I'm with you, I'm not going to run away..."
Katishia's face was flushed; she felt that Li Luochen was a bit too forceful...
I haven't even been to the carnival yet, and I'm already thinking about what to do after it's over...
He dared to take a girl out for 8+1 drinks on the first date; I can't even imagine what he was planning to do on the second day!
"really."
With that, Li Luochen sat down next to Katishia: "How about we take a picture together?"
"OK!"
Kathija thought there was nothing wrong with taking a group photo.
When we met foreign friends, we had a great chat and took a photo to remember the occasion.
Li Luochen picked up his phone, opened the camera, and selected selfie: "Come on, give me a cheese~"
"eggplant!"
Katishia gave a peace sign.
After the photo was taken, Li Luochen remained seated next to Katishia.
Taking a photo was just an excuse to sit next to Katishia. Sitting side by side with one Pokémon and the other person was the only way to increase their affection level.
but……
I always felt that Katishia next to me looked more like a real person than a Pokémon.
Whether it's the way they speak or their movements, they're just like a living, breathing person!
The anthropomorphism is a bit too much.
[Host, you're only just realizing something's wrong?]
The system popped up.
"What? Why are you out here at this hour?"
Li Luochen raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised by the recent incident of the system stealing the spotlight.
Could it be that the system, having been absent for so long, wants to pop up from time to time?
[What?! I was trying to tell you that the person in front of you isn't a Pokémon! Nor is it a Shiny Latias, it's a living, breathing person!]
The system immediately exploded against Li Luochen.
"Huh? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Li Luochen was shocked.
Katishia is not Xenochromatica.
It's a person?!
[Didn't I want to tell you this a long time ago? And you told me not to interrupt your elegant moment!]
"..."
Li Luochen's expression gradually darkened.
Seeing that Li Luochen's expression was gradually changing, Katishia, noticing this, held Li Luochen's hand and said softly, "The weather has been quite cool lately. If you don't have a strong physique, wearing so little like this, even if you drink wheat juice to warm your stomach, you can still easily catch a cold..."
"..."
Li Luochen turned crimson.
to be frank.
From the very beginning.
He was just messing with Kathisia as if she were a different Celestia.
And because Latias had told him before that the heterochromatic Latias was rather shy.
Therefore, they didn't use waveguide power or anything like that.
Even the system wasn't used to open an account.
result……
Now tell him that the Katishia in front of him is a real person, not Xenocelatias?!
Sin!
But since he was the one who flirted with Katishia, he couldn't just stand her up.
But there is one thing to say.
Golden-haired xiaolongbao...
Cough cough, this definitely fits my XP.
After composing himself, Li Luochen smiled at Katishia and said, "Thank you, but aren't you afraid of catching a cold wearing so little?"
From a distance, Katishia's clothing appeared quite revealing.
Having been close to Katishia for so long, she could see almost everything.
"I'm not afraid, because I've always been very healthy, so wearing less won't hurt me. But it can be a bit cold."
Kathia pretended to shrink back slightly, then smiled and said, "But, Mr. Luo Chen, your hands are very warm~"
"Is...really? Haha, maybe it's because I'm a warm person, so my hands are warm too."
Li Luochen chuckled and joked.
"Mr. Luo Chen is so witty!"
Kathias covered her mouth and chuckled, teasingly saying, "Mr. Luo Chen, are you trying to use taking pictures as an excuse to sit next to me? Next time, you don't need to go through all that trouble, just sit down~"
Just then, a gust of north wind suddenly swept across the water.
The boat swayed slightly.
Katishia lost her balance and leaned towards Li Luochen.
Li Luochen raised his hand to support her shoulder, steadily holding her up.
Supported by Li Luochen, Katishia's ears suddenly turned red, and she froze in his palm, forgetting to move for a moment.
Not far away.
"Brother Suijun, do you think the person destined for greatness will thank us?"
Hoopa floated not far away, munching on a donut, and asked Suijun, who was standing still on the water.
Suijun gazed distantly toward the small boat and spoke calmly:
"Yes. Judging from his appearance, his date should be an alternate Chrysatias. This kind of atmosphere... is exactly what we need to do to help him in secret."
"Once the situation is clarified later, they will definitely thank us."
"Yay!"
Hearing what Suikun said, Hoopa's eyes lit up. She took another big bite of the donut and mumbled indistinctly, "Then he'll be super—happy when he finds out!"
It could already picture Li Luochen's surprised and delighted expression when he discovered the truth.
Shui Jun nodded slightly, then turned and left, concealing his merits and fame.
"Hoopa, take me to the place you mentioned."
"Hey bro, you're here!"
