As night falls, the searchlights of the musical theater intersect with neon lights, and a full moon hangs in the night sky of Raven City.
Xiao Juer wore antenna headphones and a shiny yellow waistcoat. Her black hair was tied into braids and fell down to her legs under her hot pants. She smiled politely at Nazhi sitting next to her:
"Hello, Miss Nazi...the night breeze is very comfortable."
Nazi, wearing a purple tights, glanced at Xiao Ju'er sitting next to her, nodded lightly and said:
"Hello."
Topic interrupted.
Xiao Juer looked at the Kanto Pavilion owner, a star in the entertainment industry, and chatted with curiosity:
"Miss Nazi, why did you come to the musical theater?"
"Because I am very interested in Gengar's repertoire." Nazhi looked forward and said.
Xiao Ju'er was slightly startled, turned her head and said, "Gengar?"
"No?" Nazi asked back.
This senior seems to be difficult to get along with...
Xiao Juer originally wanted to exchange beauty tips with Nazhi, but after thinking about it, she changed the topic.
As a model, Xiao Juer is approachable in life and likes old jokes and telling cold jokes...
Although it is often embarrassing, Xiao Juer never tires of it.
Xiao Ju'er's face turned red, as if she had thought of some funny joke, and she said with a smile:
"Miss Nazi...ahem, do you know...the wool of the furry sheep?"
"Meili Sheep's evolved form? What's wrong?" Nazi asked.
"The wool of the furry sheep is so fluffy, haha~" Xiao Ju'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
Nazi: "..."
This joke is already colder than ‘Uncle Liu of the Ice’!
Xiao Ju'er secretly looked at Na Zi and whispered, "Isn't it funny?"
Nazi's iceberg-like face barely managed to squeeze out a trace of arc: "We... can talk about other topics."
Xiao Ju'er's eyes lit up: "Really? I also want to become more dazzling on the stage like Miss Nazi... With Miss Nazi's figure, I think there is no problem for you to be a model!"
Nazhi glanced at Xiao Juer, who had sincere eyes, relaxed her shoulders a little, and chatted:
"What are your skin care products?"
"To be honest, I'm quite knowledgeable about beauty makeup!"
Xiao Juer puffed up her chest, "But... I thought Miss Nazi was the type who didn't pay much attention to these things."
"That was before." Nazi said, "Now I take skin care... very seriously."
Because Nazi was criticized by Xiaolan for being an "old woman" and having "poor skin"... the scene of her breaking the defense is still fresh in my memory.
As trainers who take care of both their main and side jobs, Nazhi and Xiao Juer unexpectedly have something in common.
"Do you know what a good or bad star will become after running a red light? He will become a super bad star!" Xiao Ju'er told the joke with a serious face.
Nazhi listened to the talkative words of 'Sparkling Beauty' Xiao Ju'er, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly, gradually widening into a smile, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth with laughter.
In "The Unprinted Chapter", Nazi is as iceberg-like as she is, but she laughs heartily because of Ghost Stone's pranks. She is essentially a troubled girl who lacks childhood but is full of innocence.
Sitting together with Xiao Juer, who loves to tell cold jokes, Nazi took off her guard and showed a rare smile.
**
Heilian and Bai Lu sat together.
Sitting next to him was Homiga, wearing studded boots and a white braid on his head, yawning boredly.
Bai Lu asked in a low voice: "Homijia... what is the specific repertoire of the concert hosted by Teacher Lu?"
"I don't know." Homiga curled his lips and said, "But Teacher Lu is quite capable, and Meloetta is helping me... Just don't worry."
"Meloetta?" Heilian asked in surprise: "A fantasy Pokémon, traveling with Teacher Lu?"
Homiga turned his head wordlessly, and the three of them looked at the black-haired young man beside the stage at the same time.
I saw Meloetta sitting on the shoulders of the black-haired young man, swaying her slender legs. There was also a cute 'V-Zimon' lying on top of his head.
Heilian and Bailu, who had collected illustration data for Dr. Yew, looked strange at the moment.
"Meloetta...and Victini?!"
This is the home of the phantom beasts, Teacher Lu!
**
Sirona put her hands on her hips and greeted Wanlong, the King of Ghosts, with a smile.
"Welcome~Why didn't Cattleya come?"
"She said she didn't want to see you and Teacher Lu being intimate." Wanlong said with a smile.
Sirona said dumbly: "She is too sensitive to the surrounding environment...music can easily affect her."
Wanlong held the novel in his hand, adjusted his glasses, looked around and said, "Speaking of which, where is Teacher Lu?"
"He's preparing for the opening later."
Wanlong nodded thoughtfully, got close to Sirona, and whispered:
"Zhulan...the heroic legend that was circulated in Hezhong a few days ago is really Teacher Lu?"
Sirona was noncommittal, glanced at the fantasy Pokémon surrounding Teacher Lu, and said with a smile:
"Perhaps for him...saving Hezhong and giving a concert to Meloetta, the latter is more important."
A glint of excitement flashed across Wanlong's eyes.
"I'm inspired... I'll go back and stay up late tonight to catch up on the manuscript!"
‘The person who stays up late’ Wanlong silently cheered himself up with dark circles under his eyes.
**
The three Team Rockets stayed in the corner of the back row, whispering.
"That skinny girl is the model Xiao Ju'er..."
"So beautiful, meow~" Meow's eyes were filled with love.
"Hey!" Sure enough, Weng nodded with a smile.
Musashi pulled back his red hair and muttered: "My figure is not inferior to hers, right?"
"Hmph, if I can enter the entertainment industry, I, Musashi, can also become a female star!"
Kojiro held a telescope, looked at the stage, and murmured:
"The cadre is so powerful, even the legendary Victini seems to have a good relationship with him."
Meow held her cheek in her hands and said with a dazed smile: "And Meloetta~so charming, Meow!"
"Say!" Sure enough, Weng laughed.
Ping pong!
Musashi punched Guo Ranweng and Miaomiao at the same time and said:
"Meloetta is the cadre's Pokémon, you two are not allowed to use your brains!"
"It hurts so much, meow... Meow is just showing appreciation for beautiful things."
Miaomiao crossed his arms, looked at the two people who had just entered the theater, and was stunned for a moment.
"Little, little devil?!" the trio said in unison.
**
Xiaozhi and Alice walked into the musical theater and felt very friendly when meeting the familiar owners of the Hezhong Hall.
There was still some time before the opening ceremony, so Xiaozhi and Alice rushed over when they saw the news in the group.
"Oh, it looks like it's just the right time." Xiaozhi said.
Pikachu lay on Xiaozhi's shoulder and smiled: "Pikachu!"
No, no, no!
The stage lights suddenly went out.
Alice said: "Quickly find a seat and sit down, the concert is about to start."
When the lights came on again, everyone present focused on the trainer on the stage.
"The theme of today's concert is the bond between humans and Pokémon."
Lu Ye spoke slowly and said with a smile: "It's a commonplace topic... but after experiencing Hezhong's trip, I have a deeper understanding."
"Today's concert is not formal...any partners who want to show off can come on stage."
"Finally, thank you all for participating in this concert. I am very grateful."
The handsome black-haired young man pressed his chest with his hands, while Meloetta floated beside him, bowing and saluting in unison.
The stage lights fell on Lu Ye, and Meloetta's every move seemed to be synonymous with "beauty", with both magnificence and elegance coexisting.
"Teacher Lu...is a master of coordination?" Xiao Ju'er recognized the style of the coordinator and said softly.
Nazi nodded.
With Meloetta as a partner... Teacher Lu may be able to compare with Mikri's performance.
And Victini, who has the symbol of "victory", can also reach the top in the field of trainers.
With the blessing of victory and art at the same time... Nazi whispered:
"It seems Arceus is unfair."
The performance officially begins.
In the first performance, Homiga and her partner Centipede King played a heavy metal rock music.
Homiga strummed the electric guitar, stepped on rivet boots, and said passionately:
"Poison plays my life, poison plays the stage!"
A musical theater turns into an underground rock club in seconds.
Teacher Lu thought Homiga's cello sounded better, but the director of the theater she invited seemed very happy to hear it.
"Cattleya's not coming is a wise choice."
Wanlong smiled bitterly and said: "If you irritate her, your telekinesis will tear down the entire theater."
"But everyone was very happy to hear it." Sirona said with a smile.
Wanlong looked around and found Xiaozhi and Alice shaking their heads to the rhythm.
Xiao Juer pointed to the antenna earphone, leaned close to Nazi and said:
"My playlist contains Homiga's albums... and by the way, Teacher Lu's singles too!"
A game producer who can't write songs is not a good cook...
Nazi sighed: "I wouldn't be surprised at all if he makes a movie one day."
There are many actors among the trainers: Karuna, Natsu, Hachiku... The "Black and White" game has shown various settings of Pokémon Hollywood and Pokémon movies, so the entertainment industry has a huge influence in the Pokémon world.
It's possible.
Back then, Meowth met his first love Madonna at Kanto's "Fake Pokémon Hollywood" and determined to learn human language. However, in the end, Madonna used the reason that "Meowth who can speak human language is disgusting."
reject.
The relationship experiences of the Rockets trio were all bumpy...but friendship brought them back together, and their bond with each other is better than family ties.
After Homiga's performance ended, Lu Ye turned his attention to Meow Meow off the stage.
Miaomiao was stunned, and discerned what Teacher Lu meant with her eyes. She blushed and waved her hands:
"It's impossible to meow, there are so many people meowing...and besides, the meowing is not good, meowing..."
Deep down in his heart, Miaomiao still longs to perform on stage and write and sing his own songs to gain everyone's recognition.
But Miao Miao knew that his voice was not pleasant...it was like fingernails scratching on a blackboard.
Meow Meow heard the "Super Overpowering Power" ringing in his heart, and was stunned for a moment.
'No problem, Meow Meow.'
Lu Ye said with a smile, 'Come on and sing your favorite song.'
Meow Meow slowly raised his head and looked at the glittering stage, his eyes twinkling.
Back then... Meow also imagined such a gorgeous and romantic life.
but.
Meow Meow looked around at Kojiro and Musashi and smiled.
Meow has his own companions and great cadres... He is already very content, Meow!
Miao Miao stood on the seat and shook her head towards Teacher Lu.
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows and signaled to Musashi and Kojiro.
Musashi and Kojiro looked at each other, smiled knowingly, and at the same time stretched out their hands to grab Meowth's arm.
"You, what are you doing, meow!" Meow meow said in a panic.
"This is a good time to show meow," Kojiro said.
"Leaving a good impression on the trainers present will also facilitate future promotions and salary increases!" Musashi said.
Both of them knew that Miaomiao had an unforgettable past...
Meow, who looks confident, desires everyone's approval more than anyone else.
And now...it's obviously a good opportunity!
The two threw Meow Meow onto the stage and laughed:
"The decision is yours, Meow Meow!"
"No, meow"
Meow danced in the air and fell into a warm embrace. He raised his head and met Teacher Lu's eyes.
"Fuck, cadre..." Meow Meow's voice trembled.
"No problem, Meow Meow."
Lu Ye put Miao Miao on the ground, "Do you need a guitar?"
Meow Meow nodded in confusion, and took out the small guitar from Meloetta who floated forward.
"Mello~" Meloetta clenched her fists and cheered Meow Meow up.
Miao Miao stared at the guitar, and the scenes of wandering in those days came to mind one by one, and she raised her head to look at the cadre.
What caught Miaomiao's eyes was a 'mentor' who didn't tell him anything, but he seemed to understand everything...
"cadre…(??)"
Wow!
Applause broke out.
Meowth turned to look at Kojiro and Musashi, feeling not regrets about the past, but satisfaction and happiness.
In an instant, Miao Miao's eyes were filled with fire. He gripped the small guitar handle tightly and stood on the high platform to turn down the microphone.
"Take that, next is the performance brought by Meow..."
Miaomiao scratched his head and said a little shyly: "Miaomiao wrote the song himself, so the song is called, "
Miaomiao took a deep breath and said:
""Meow's Song"."
Applause rang out again.
Xiao Juer's eyes were bright and she whispered:
"The talking meow...so cute~"
Nazi crossed her arms and raised a slight arc at the corner of her mouth.
It is said that they are the current elite team of Team Rocket... and they have grown a lot under the leadership of their 'mentor'.
Miao Miao's face turned slightly red, she picked up the guitar, cleared her throat and looked up at the dome of the music theater.
The days of wandering, the days of studying languages hard in the attic, the days of thinking about existence in the blue and silent nights...
In front of Miao Miao's eyes, a full moon like a silver plate seemed to appear.
It sat under the bright moonlight and picked up the guitar
There were gold coins all over the ground, but Team Rocket's meow looked up and saw the moonlight.
Meow Meow hummed slowly with a hoarse and gentle voice:
“AoiAoishizukanayo breasts niwa……”
【In the blue silent night, I am thinking about philosophy alone.】
[Insects are rolling and chirping in the grass, and they sound delicious.]
【Tonight, I will not eat them.】
【The moon is so...round, so round.】
The vast night sky is full of stars, and the river flows under the bright full moon.
A humanoid pink Pokémon with a serious face looking up at the full moon in the night sky.
The meaning of one's own existence...that is the question Chaomeng has been pursuing.
【Rather than any round thing in the world】
The bright moon illuminates the road ahead.
A green-haired young man was walking on the road, raising his eyes and looking at the full moon.
The relationship between humans and Pokémon...that is an equation that N cannot solve.
For thousands of years, the bond between humans and Pokémon, all of it.
Meowth looked at Kojiro and Musashi off the stage and gave his answer.
【Rounder than any round thing in the world】
The song is over.
Miao Miao closed her eyes and whispered nervously:
"My voice is hoarse... I can't sing well, meow..."
"Please forgive me," Meow Meow was about to say.
Warm applause rang out like a tide, and Meow Meow opened her eyes in surprise.
Musashi and Kojiro were crying and applauding hard.
"Where is this song released? I want to add it to the playlist!" Xiao Juer's eyes lit up.
"The Song of Meow Meow." Heilian nodded thoughtfully, "The lyrics are surprisingly philosophical..."
Bai Lu smiled and said: "There are also some philosophers among Pokémon."
Lu Ye walked out of the curtain and looked at Meow, who was so nervous that he was sweating.
The speechless black-haired young man was reflected in his pupils. Miao Miao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes shining brightly.
"cadre……"
Miao Miao stretched out her arms, wiped the tears from her eyes, raised her head and smiled:
