It was exactly noon when we arrived at Melemele Island.
Xizhu and his four students were going to have a meeting with members of the Ether Foundation stationed on the island, so he signaled to Luther that he could move around as he pleased and meet at the hotel in the evening.
Luther felt that there was a high probability that Xizhu would get the same reply this time. The possibility of the Ether Foundation relenting was very small, and it was just a matter of humiliating itself.
"It doesn't matter if I'm rejected. I just went out of my way to ask them to reject me, but I can't give them the excuse that I didn't say hello."
This is probably why Xizhu was asked to lead the team. It is estimated that few people in this group of people who are obsessed with research can achieve this level of comprehensiveness.
It was clearly the end of February, and Alola was already a bit sultry.
The travel brochure says that Alola is like summer all year round, not like spring, which indeed makes sense.
With the guide to Melemele Island given by the airport tour guide, Shijana was eager to try it.
This was her first time traveling in her life, so everything she saw was new.
Luther gave Sijana a light blow on the head: "Before you go around to visit, there is at least one thing you need to tell me."
"Huh?" Shijana was stunned for a moment, then touched her face with a guilty conscience.
Luther just stared at her. After a while, Shijana reached to her waist, took out an elf ball, and pressed it.
The dream demon jumped out of it. After adapting to the outside world, he looked left and right, and met Luther's eyes at a glance.
The dream demon leaned back, pretending to be okay and stuck to Luther's side, laughing and saying something.
"Master, how do you know?" Shijana asked.
Luther held down the dream demon and pinched it hard as a punishment.
"Mai couldn't find her when it was time to eat. The dream demon was tricked by Gengar and he was tricked out of her immediately." Luther looked at the dream demon angrily, "I really have you, so go stow away with Shijana."
The dream demon was not frightened by Luther's words at all, and still rubbed Luther hard.
"Okay, okay, we're all here, can I still drive you back? You can stay with Shijana for the time being."
The dream demon got the answer he wanted, and immediately came behind Xijana, raised his head, and was extremely proud that his plan had succeeded.
He and Shijana had some snacks on the side of the road and settled down for lunch. They discovered that there were no-fly signs in the urban area of Melemele Island. Luther stopped a Kentero taxi.
"Are you two guests visiting the Alola region? Do you need me to introduce some good places to visit?" The uncle driving Kentero turned around and asked.
"No need, take us to a place where wild elves often hang out."
Probably because he was afraid that his description was not careful enough, Luther added: "The more frequent the better, it would be best if you know where strong wild elves are active."
The uncle who had never heard of such a request was stunned, and after a long time he hesitated to remind: "Guest, you may not be familiar with the Alola area. The cities here are very close to the places where wild elves live, so as long as you leave the urban area, it is very easy to
You will soon encounter many wild elves.”
"Tell the important point."
"There have been many incidents of wild elves accidentally injuring tourists in recent years. As an Alola native, I can't trick you."
Luther was amused by the seriousness of this uncle. He didn't know whether it was because all people in Alola were so simple, or he just happened to meet one.
"Just take me there, you don't have to worry about my safety."
Knowing that he could not persuade Luther, the uncle patted Kentero on the head and set off directly.
Seeing that the uncle had specially taken the route to a path where he could see the beach, Luther leaned on the soft cushion and admired the scenery along the road.
Sijana sitting aside had no intention of admiring the scenery, she was very excited.
If there are no special circumstances, his master will help him catch the third elf.
The reason was the competition with Chiaki.
Two people of the same age on the island have become partners and fierce rivals since they arrived on the island.
Qianqiu, who was the first to embark on the path of a trainer, owns the Big Steel Snake, the Gopher and the Sand King, and is much better than Shijana in terms of hardware.
Taking Gu Niu Niu and Nidoran to tickle the big steel snake... The so-called competition, in Luther's opinion, is that Sijana is constantly challenging herself.
After another defeat, Chiaki revealed a surprising news to Shijana while talking to her.
Qianqiu's big steel snake that bullied him in battles all day long was actually tamed by Luther with help.
Shijana looked at the big steel snake with its body reflecting light under the sunlight, feeling his domineering posture, feeling envious and jealous.
Shijana followed Luther, wandering around, hesitating to speak. After Luther asked several times, she finally revealed that she also wanted to own an elf given by her master.
Luther was silent for a while, patted Shijana on the head, and agreed.
It seems that the past experience of poverty made Shijana not very dare to ask for gifts in the real sense.
If you give it to her, she will happily hold the gift and open it in the corner. After opening it, she will hold the gift in her arms and feel it, as if she is tasting happiness for the first time.
If you don't give it, she will endure it and never mention it.
The first time Sijana said what she wanted was because she was jealous of Qianqiu. Luther couldn't help laughing, and he also indirectly felt the weight of himself in Sijana's heart.
Kentero took a taxi and drove all the way outside the city area. The area he could see was filled with trees and vegetation. Among the hanging branches and leaves, some elves could be vaguely seen.
Because of Kentero's running momentum, many elves retreated into the forest.
Kentero stopped under the uncle's command. The uncle turned around with a serious look on his face: "I'll wait for you here. If you want to feel the breath of the wild, try not to leave too far. If you need anything, just come to me."
Rush here."
"Okay, we will definitely come back here to find you when we return to the city."
Luther felt that this serious uncle was actually a little enthusiastic and a little cute, so he added a small tip in addition to the regular fare.
Shijana, who felt as if she was home when she came to the wild, was already running happily towards a red fruit with a bit of green on its head that could move not far away.
The fruit felt Shijana approaching, and its mini feet ran hard, trying to avoid Shijana's pursuit.
This was in vain. By the time Luther caught up with Sijana, she had already blocked the round fruit in a shallow tree hole.
"Oh, you blocked a Sweet Bamboo Bamboo. This is a grass-type elf...it also smells refreshing. It's growing well."
Luther recognized the shivering elf in the tree hole at a glance.
In this situation, Luther couldn't help but recall the scene when he and Mai blocked the leaves of chrysanthemums and teased her.
