At five o'clock in the evening, Zach came to receive the goods on time.
But Naoki has nothing to sell today.
Perhaps it was because Gulerton's fish fry was so intense two days ago that the fish in the nearby river decreased significantly. He only caught three ordinary bass.
Zach seemed to be used to this, and instead opened his mouth to comfort Naoki.
"This kind of thing is normal. Fishing depends on luck. You are already very lucky. You must know that some people may not be able to catch a fish even if they sit by the river for a whole day!"
Naoki: "..."
Air Force, right?
After selling the three bass and receiving the 600 alliance coins from Zach, Zhishu thought about whether to go fishing in the sea to the west of Zhiqin Town.
They have almost caught all the fish in the river, and it will probably take a long time to recover.
During this time, the crops in the pasture have not grown yet, so he has no other way to make money except fishing.
But Naoki is not in a hurry, after all, the most important thing now is to finish the chicken hut.
After washing himself and the two Pokémon clean with the faucet, Naoki returned to the cabin and started preparing dinner.
There is no more rainbow trout, and only some smoked sausages and ham are left at home, which are common cooked foods in Zhiqin market.
They are easy to store and will not go bad if left at room temperature for several days. They are very suitable for places without refrigerators.
But similarly, sandwiches made with smoked sausage and ham have no special effect.
Despite this, Guluton and Motorized Lizard still ate happily.
This reminded Naoki of a saying from his previous life - a dog does not care if the family is poor.
In this world, Pokémon are like domestic dogs. Once they recognize you as their owner, they will never dislike you, whether you are poor or not.
Not only that, Pokémon will also live with humans. Coupled with their emotions and IQ, Naoki feels that it is more appropriate to call them family.
As for the green caterpillar...
Naoki knew that he had been practicing his moves hard outside all day today, and when he got tired, he would nibble on the fresh green leaves on the tree.
After gnawing all day, I’m afraid I’m not very hungry now.
It didn't even come back. Naoki went out to take a look and found that it was simply sleeping on a big tree in the pasture.
Green caterpillars seem to like the big trees outside more than inside the house.
After dinner, Zhi Shu chose to go to bed early to rest after a busy day.
At the same time, in the back mountain.
A blond boy about ten years old crawled out of the gutter in a state of embarrassment.
The uniforms with the Orange Academy emblem printed on them were stained with mud and damp, rotten leaves.
The young man glanced at his dirty clothes with disgust and sat on a tree with a tearless look on his face.
The boy's name is Carter, a first-year freshman at Orange Academy. He left school two days ago and went out to participate in an outdoor course, but he never expected to get lost along the way.
I wanted to keep going forward to see if I could encounter any inhabited place, but I never thought it would rain.
It rained all day and trapped him in the cave for the whole day.
After finally waiting for the rain to stop, I wanted to come out and take a look, but ended up falling into a gutter. Not only did my clothes get dirty, I also bruised my legs.
All the food on his body was eaten, and Carter endured hunger and leaned against a tree, his face full of tears.
"I wonder if the messenger bird has found the location of the town. Oh, it's really annoying. If I had known it, I wouldn't have come to participate in this extracurricular activity."
In the afternoon, Carter released his only Pokémon, Messenger Bird, and asked it to identify the direction from the sky and find places where humans live.
Suddenly, the cry of the messenger bird came from the sky.
Carter quickly raised his head with surprise on his face.
Looking at the messenger bird that landed in front of him, Carter quickly asked: "Have you found the location of the town nearby?"
"Bibi!"
The messenger bird nodded and took out a blue tree fruit from the white cloth bag he carried with him and handed it to his trainer.
"Food specially found for me?" Carter held the fruit and shed tears of emotion. He immediately hugged the messenger bird in his arms: "Thank you so much, messenger bird!"
"Bibi!"
The messenger bird was choked so hard that it couldn't breathe.
Fortunately, Carter soon let go. He took a bite of the fruit and regained his motivation: Okay! Let's keep going!"
"Bibi!"
The messenger bird led the way, and Carter followed closely behind it.
After walking for more than an hour, under the moonlight, a dark wooden house appeared in front.
"That's...a cabin?" Carter was a little disappointed. He originally thought it would be a lively human town.
In addition, Carter also saw farmland, which seemed to be a farm.
"Bibi!"
The messenger bird on the side nodded its head, indicating that it had seen traces of human activities here before.
"This is pretty good. It's better than continuing to get lost in the mountains." Carter thought as he stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Hello, excuse me, is anyone living here?"
Soon, there was a sound of footsteps inside.
The lights in the room turned on, and as the door opened, a tall, thin young man appeared inside.
Naoki looked at the dirty boy in front of him, a flash of surprise flashed across his face: "Who are you?"
Carter quickly introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Carter! I am a student at Orange College. I accidentally got lost in the mountains... I would like to ask, is it far from the town?"
Naoki glanced at the other party and said: "It will take about three hours on foot."
"Ah? So far?" Carter was dumbfounded and at a loss for a moment.
His physical strength has been lost so much that he may not be able to support him to get there.
Naoki looked at the school badge on the opponent's chest, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said: "Come in, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk anywhere like this, so just spend the night here tonight!"
Carter quickly expressed gratitude: "Thank you very much! We will not live in vain, I will pay the room fee!"
"Forget it, it's just a little effort, and you won't have to pay for the room."
From the memory of the original owner, I learned that the cost of staying in a hotel in this world is not high. The cheapest hotel costs about 200 yuan a night.
Thinking about it, Naoki moved out of the way.
Hearing this, Carter felt even more grateful.
What a good person!
He walked into the room with the messenger bird.
From the outside, this wooden house is not big, but the facilities inside are very complete.
A single bed, a desk, a cabinet used as a partition, and a working fireplace.
The wooden floors are spotless, and the environment inside the house is very clean and tidy.
"The owner of the house is a very clean person!" Carter thought to himself.
Worried that his shoes would make the house dirty, Carter took off his shoes before entering the house and entered the house wearing only a pair of stockings.
At this time, his eyes suddenly noticed the two Pokémon lying beside the bed.
A Biker Lizard, and a scarlet-colored Pokémon that he had never seen before.
Although he had never seen it before, his intuition as a trainer kept telling him that that Pokémon was extraordinary!
