After hearing the complete story of his son's deeds, Chiri's old father sat there alone in silence for a long time.
After a while, he slowly raised his head and looked at the people, his face full of regret and remorse.
"It was me who harmed that child..."
He sighed long and leisurely.
Through his narration, Xiaozhi and others also roughly knew Chiri's childhood life.
Chiri's parents are both rigorous scholars. Their superiority in academic qualifications and knowledge made them very demanding of their only son.
It can be said that Chiri has lived under high pressure since he was a child. He has to deal with countless textbook assignments and strict education from his parents every day.
This also made Chiri's character very withdrawn.
Don't like to talk and like to be alone.
Other withdrawn children of the same age who have no friends may also stay with Pokémon.
But Chiri is different...his only companion is a robot.
"robot?"
Xiaozhi became interested. Chiri's childhood sounded really strange.
"Well, the robot is the kind of simple robot made of iron. When Chiri was a child, he often talked to the robot to himself... At that time, I was afraid that Chiri would completely turn into a monster child, so one day when he was not at home, I took the robot
Lost it."
Chiri's father said slowly, with a regretful expression.
Talking to himself in front of a lifeless creature was undoubtedly a very strange and unacceptable thing for him, who was traditional and conservative.
Chiri was so shocked after the incident that he locked himself in his room.
This time, he stopped talking to himself at all. He just immersed himself in book knowledge every day, focusing on studying and no longer communicating with outsiders.
This also made Chiri's academic performance extremely excellent. He ranked first in the school in every exam, and his grades on the paper were impeccable.
I skipped grades several times at a young age and soon left home to go to university.
"Since then, Chiri has never returned to this home...and has no contact with her."
Apparently, Akari still remembers and hates his father's behavior as a child.
"I see..."
After listening, Daye sighed and shook his head. It sounded like Chiri's extreme personality was largely caused by this family.
Although he is the culprit... the old man in front of him has nothing to do with the Team Galaxy incident.
Daye couldn't say anything about family education.
"Master, I brought it..."
But at this time, the nanny suddenly brought out a half-human-tall robot from the room.
The body is made of simple and rough iron sheet, and the surface is orange-red... This familiar color, Xiaozhi always thinks that he has seen it somewhere before?
"This is the robot I forcibly threw away."
Chiri's father continued to speak.
It turned out that Chiri had secretly found the robot back then and had hidden it deep in the warehouse in the yard.
This was also a secret that Chiri's father accidentally discovered later when the house was demolished and rebuilt.
This is not a simple robot.
"Come out, Rotom...it's time."
Following Akari's father's voice, a burst of electric light suddenly appeared on the surface of the robot's body, and then an orange-red Rotom suddenly jumped out of the robot's body.
"whee...!"
Plasma's figure is very nimble, and he shuttles around the hall casually, showing a playful look.
"Rotom? Wait a minute, Chiri's soliloquy..."
Xiaoguang reacted, which meant that Chiri was not talking to himself at that time, but was talking to the Rotom?
"Well, I didn't know until the past few years that there is a Pokémon living in the robot, and it is also Chiri's first partner..."
Chiri's father lowered his head, his tone trembling.
If he could have discovered this earlier and guided him correctly, perhaps his son would not have embarked on this path.
"Loto..."
The Rotom also flew down on the old man's shoulder, placing its small lightning-shaped hand on the latter's head and murmuring comfortingly.
It was as if he heard the news of his former trainer's death through the Poké Ball.
...
Although he was saddened by this story, it sounded like an unexpected family tragedy. After Daye recorded it for a while, he was ready to leave.
But before leaving, Chiri's father suddenly took out a Poke Ball and put Rotom into it.
Then he took out a thick notebook, which looked a little old and withered, and had the words "Aka Ri's Research Notes" written on the cover.
"This is Chiri's research material when he was a child... When he ran away from home, he discarded Rotom and this research material here together."
Chiri's father opened his mouth to explain.
He only found this notebook recently. When he opened it, he found that it contained Chiri's dense experimental research records.
It records information on how to allow certain special electronic Pokémon to enter machinery and equipment, thereby gaining the ability to speak human language and communicate fluently with humans.
The object of study is none other than Rotom.
"Let Rotom speak?"
Xiaozhi was startled and subconsciously took out his illustrated book.
Your own Rotom can also live in the illustrated book, and then the voice of the illustrated book will directly change into the weird voice of Rotom, and even the customary ending sentence of "Loto" will be added.
"Not only that... According to the above research, what Chiri wants to accomplish is to allow Rotom to speak completely freely."
Chiri's father spoke.
Although Xiaozhi's Rotom can speak human language after entering the illustrated book... it only responds to the system's instructions.
It should be described as "changing a voice" rather than Rotom's initiative to speak.
Chiri's goal is to allow Rotom to enter electronic devices such as mobile phones and illustrated books to create special communication Rotom.
Just like when Rotom enters an ordinary tin robot, the color of the latter's body will also change. This is Rotom's inherent ability.
On this basis, a special instrument capable of loading auxiliary Rotom was invented.
"I have carefully read the research on this notebook, and the technology is very mature... If it is handed over to a Pokémon doctor related to the illustrated book, he should be able to successfully invent a special device that allows Rotom to speak and communicate on his own.
Illustrated.”
Chiri's father spoke.
His own stubbornness brought Chiri to a desperate situation... Now the only thing he can do is to let Chiri's research results be passed on.
This is not only an atonement for itself, but also an atonement for Red Sun.
It's just that he is not an engineering scholar, and he has more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
It just so happened that the King of the Alliance came to our door now. What he said was not just a story.
Chiri's father wanted the few people in front of him to take away Chiri's last legacy and carry it forward.
