Pokemon: Starting from the different color Lalulas

The night sky is lonely, filled with stars, and some black clouds are floating leisurely in the sky.

The steel-armored crow didn't fly at full speed because it was worried about Xu Qiansu on its back, but its speed was still not slow.

Arriving at the villa area, Xu Qiansu looked down and saw that the residents inside were all dressed up and getting into the luxury cars parked in front of the door. The ladies and eldest ladies had exquisite makeup and were wearing kimonos... It seemed that they were all going to attend the temple fair.

The temple fair held in memory of the Phoenix King should have a very special meaning to the people of Yuanzhu City.

No wonder Interpol sent manpower to the temple fair at a time when Team Rocket was about to make a surprise attack... Presumably the Johto Alliance would also send a lot of manpower to maintain law and order.

Therefore, Zhong Zhiliao's current strength is relatively empty... and it is also a good time for a surprise attack.

Xu Qiansu looked away, but suddenly thought of this... But then he shook his head slightly. He could think of it, and the top officials of Interpol could also think of it... A scene that really reached the level of a surprise attack on Zhong Zhiliao was not like him. Trainers who have been traveling for half a year can intervene at will.

It is true that Xu Qiansu's progress is very fast, but it is also an indisputable fact that the time to become a trainer is too short.

While thinking, the steel-armored crow folded its wings and landed in the yard in front of Cattleya's villa.

Snap.

There was a knock on the window from above.

Xu Qiansu sat on the back of the steel-armored crow and looked up, only to see Cattleya standing behind the window on the third floor.

She opened the window, held the window edge with both hands, and shouted to Xu Qiansu, "Too slow!"

Cattleya had already put on the ink-style white kimono that Xu Qiansu bought for her. A plain belt was wrapped around her waist, outlining her astonishing hip-to-waist ratio, and a beautiful braid hanging down the back of her waist.

Xu Qiansu couldn't help but laugh and said loudly, "Come down quickly."

"Can't wait?"

"Can't wait."

The two men were talking loudly as if they were performing a Shakespearean opera.

So Cattleya held the window edge with both hands and stood directly on it. With one step, she jumped down from the third floor.

Xu Qiansu was stunned for a moment, not expecting Cattleya to do this. He quickly stood up, took a few steps forward, and then caught Cattleya steadily.

The fragrant wind filled her nostrils, Cattleya held Xu Qiansu's neck with her hands and giggled happily.

She put her legs together, and the hem of her kimono hung down by gravity, revealing white socks and a small section of smooth and white calves.

Xu Qiansu took a look and then asked, "Are you wearing safety pants?"

"Wearing safety pants under a kimono, which region is this custom for you?" Cattleya stopped smiling, and rolled her eyes at Xu Qiansu with a bit of helplessness.

"Are you really not wearing anything?"

"wore."

"Miss Cattleya, which region's custom is this?"

Cattleya stretched out her hand, pinched Xu Qiansu's face, and then twisted it hard, "Talk too much."

The steel-armored crow reversed its direction, waved its wings, and flew into the night sky.

There was a whistling wind in her ears, and the bangs on Cattleya's forehead were blowing lightly in the wind.

Xu Qiansu hugged her like this, sat down on the back of the steel-armored crow, and asked curiously, "Have you ever worn a kimono before?"

"I'm from Sinnoh, and I'm not from Johto, so how can I pass through."

"This is my first time wearing it..."

"What do you want to do?" Cattleya glanced at Xu Qiansu slightly provocatively, but she looked charming and passionate.

Xu Qiansu's hands passed through the hem of the kimono.

Cattleya's legs seemed to be dancing and she broke away from Xu Qiansu's mischievous hand. She rolled her eyes at him again and said, "If you want your girlfriend to go to public places in a wet kimono, then you go ahead."

"That won't work."

Cattleya smiled happily and said charmingly, "If you have the confidence to put on a kimono for me, that's not impossible~"

Xu Qiansu's heart twitched slightly, and she felt her blood rising a little... But it was really not possible at the moment. After all, the speed of the steel-armored crow was not slow, and he could reach the coffee shop in less than a few minutes.

Cattleya said this just because she was sure of this.

Cattleya smiled when she saw Xu Qiansu's appearance, "Idiot."

When the two of them arrived at the coffee shop, Ma Li and the other girls were already standing in front of the door.

Rongyue put her hands on her lower abdomen and held them tightly, a little nervous. She secretly thought in her heart that Cattleya could read minds and she must not think too much, otherwise she would be exposed... she must not think too much.

Shizhi looked at Cattleya on the steel-armored crow curiously, with a bit of inquiry in her eyes... She had not had much contact with Cattleya, she only had a chance encounter with her on the Sea Hymn. Naturally, he was very curious about this Four Heavenly Kings who only lived in the mouths of Xu Qiansu and Ma Li.

The steel-armored crow landed on the ground, and Xu Qiansu and Cattleya leaned down.

Cattleya was not very interested in the three women and just looked them over.

Rong Yue suddenly stiffened slightly and became even more nervous.

But Cattleya didn't look at her. She just tapped her chin gently at Ma Li, "You've had a lot of fun playing house here these days."

"Playing house is more valuable than sleeping all day." Ma Li replied calmly.

Okay, so awesome.

Rongyue looked at Ma Li dumbly, thinking that despite Cattleya's strong sense of oppression, Ma Li could still talk to her so rudely.

"Value? If you really want to talk about value, I have the final say on my family, and you have the final say on your Spike Town. But the value created by my family far exceeds your Spike Town, so no matter how hard you work, No matter how much I sleep in, you will never be able to surpass me in terms of social value, Ma Li." Cattleya said with a smile on her face.

Ma Li raised her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to look at Cattleya, obviously intending to have a good argument with her.

Shizhi's eyes lit up slightly. It had started. It had finally started. She had wanted to see this scene for a long time. It would be better if the topic could finally be turned to Xu Qiansu.

"Speaking of which, I've also made some money working here these days... I wonder if I can meet the expenses of going to the temple fair later?" Xu Qiansu interrupted at this moment.

Ma Li glanced at Xu Qiansu, looked away, hummed, and stopped arguing with Cattleya.

"How much money do you have?" Cattleya glanced sideways at Xu Qiansu, "It's worthless. It won't be a big deal if I buy the Bell Tower for you later."

"Can the Bell Tower be bought?" Rongyue looked at Shizhi curiously and asked.

"Of course it's impossible... but the Bell Tower has been burned down. At this moment, there is only a relatively strong frame left, which has only a little historical value... With Cattleya's status, if you want to buy it, and If you promise not to destroy it, the Johto Alliance should sell it to her..." Shiori blinked and explained.

Everyone walked towards the Bell Tower.

Many small and exquisite lanterns were hung along the streets, glowing with a warm yellow glow in the night.

Most of the pedestrians coming and going were wearing kimonos, which made Xu Qiansu think that she was attending a temple fair in the island country in her previous life.

"Geng Geng~" A Geng ghost wearing a small tailor-made kimono suddenly emerged from the shadows and flew past Xu Qiansu's face, interrupting his thoughts.

It was followed by ghost-type Pokémon such as Incubus, Pumpkin, and Crystal Lantern.

They chased, fought, disappeared into the shadows, appeared in the distance, and finally disappeared from Xu Qiansu's sight.

The temple fair is held near the Bell Tower.

The Bell Tower is located on the hillside on the west side of Yuanzhu City... From here, you can overlook most of Yuanzhu City.

There, there is a long stone staircase, with crimson torii gates hung with red lanterns, standing scattered among the maple leaves.

The red maple leaves fall to the ground and make a few crunching sounds when stepped on.

Looking through the long stone steps, in the maple leaf forest at the top, you can vaguely see some firelight and crowds of people... There is the temple fair.

"Xu Qiansu!" Ma Li called Xu Qiansu with a somewhat excited tone.

"Huh?" Xu Qiansu turned her head and looked.

Ma Li quickly walked up a few stone steps, then turned to look at Xu Qiansu, turning slightly sideways, her long hair, which was darker than the night sky, swaying slightly, she said with a smile, "Take a photo for me... …It needs to be good-looking.”

"Okay." Xu Qiansu took out her phone.

Cattleya immediately grabbed his wrist, narrowed her almond-shaped eyes, and said with a somewhat dangerous tone, "Just do whatever she asks you to do, you are quite obedient."

Ma Li glanced at Cattleya, then sighed softly, "You guys are really troublesome."

"What, you have any problem with me disciplining my boyfriend?"

"How about we take a photo together?" Ma Li suggested.

"Huh?" Cattleya glanced sideways at Ma Li, and then smiled with a bit of provocation, "You're asking for trouble. Don't say I stole your limelight when it's filmed later."

So Cattleya also stepped forward, deliberately taking a stone step higher than Ma Li.

She stood behind Ma Li, looked sideways at Xu Qiansu, and said in a commanding tone, "Shoot."

Naturally, Xu Qiansu would not refuse. He adjusted the angle and took a photo of the two women seriously... It was so strange that the two women could get along harmoniously in the same frame.

Sure enough, after taking a photo, the two women looked away at the same time as if they disliked each other, walked down quickly, stood on both sides of Xu Qiansu, and then stood on tiptoes, "Let me take a look at the finished product."

Xu Qiansu gestured to them.

"That condescending look is so arrogant, Cattleya." Ma Li said without mercy.

"How come the kimono doesn't feel even a little bit uneven on your body? You'd better eat more, Ma Li, otherwise if you go out with Xu Qiansu, with your child-like figure, you will sooner or later be treated as his daughter." Jiade. Liya said without mercy.

"What did you say?" Ma Li tilted her head.

"Child." Cattleya looked at her without fear.

The place where the two women's eyes met seemed like lightning flashed.

"Would you like to take a photo too?" Xu Qiansu quickly put away her phone, closed the photo album, turned to Shizhi and Rongyue, and suggested.

"of course."

Shizhi put one hand on Rong Yue's slender shoulder, the other hand held her own black hair, and looked at Xu Qiansu with a smile.

Rong Yue hugged Liu Wei and stood calmly.

Click.

After taking the photo, Gardevoir and other Pokémon took Xu Qiansu's arms and wanted to take pictures too.

Cresselia blinked, thinking that she wasn't Xu Qiansu's Pokémon... Do you want to take a photo with him?

But while she was still hesitating, Gardevoir had already pulled her over, "What are you still doing? Hurry up and finish the filming. I haven't even been to the temple fair... I still want to go and play with Susu early."

"It's just that I wonder if there are any delicious desserts there." Teng Teng Snake nodded his chin and asked with some hope.

Vulpix jumped down from Rong Yue's arms, then jumped onto Xu Qiansu's other shoulder, hooking his neck with its tail.

Click.

After taking photos, everyone stepped onto the stone steps and walked up.

"There are so many people~" Rong Yue held Vulpix in one hand and placed the other hand lightly on her lips, looking at the scene in front of her in astonishment.

This is a vast platform.

There are various stalls during the period.

It was really lively with people coming and going.

There are quite a few Pokémon running around wearing Ho-oh leather sheaths that look like Cresselia.

The dilapidated Bell Tower stands at the very end... Even though it has been burned down, there is still a skeleton of more than ten meters high at this moment, and its grandeur when it was intact can be vaguely seen.

"We must always use the power of the waveguide to detect the surroundings... We are here on a mission." Shizhi also tapped her toes with excitement, looked around, and then approached Xu Qiansu and lowered her voice.

Cattleya glanced at Shiori, but seeing that Shiori didn't pose any threat, she didn't bother to say anything more.

Xu Qiansu nodded slightly, and the power of the waveguide spread around... He noticed that many people were looking in their direction intentionally or unintentionally.

This should be a plainclothes detective.

Some are responsible for maintaining law and order, and some...are just here to protect Shiori.

One of Team Rocket's targets is Shizhi... Xu Qiansu has no control over who their other targets are, but Shizhi can't care less and asked, "When we act alone later, can I go with you?"

"You?" Shizhi was slightly startled and glanced at Xu Qiansu, "Although I am a little careless, I am not stupid... This task is not easy. There is no need for me to involve you and bear the risk with me. "

"There are so many people here, so there must be an informant from Team Rocket... It's just a conspiracy for you to go to a sparsely populated place alone. You can tell at a glance that you are a bait... But if I go with you, it will be different." ...The Rockets will probably be less wary and be able to show up more easily," Xu Qiansu explained.

In fact, it doesn't matter, whether it's going alone or two people, the Rockets will still take action tonight if they should take action, or they won't take action if they don't take action tonight... Xu Qiansu is just a little uneasy about Shizhi going alone. Just perform this kind of task.

"Then it will be the same if I take Mary or Lillie with me." Shizhi pondered for a while, but she didn't know what she thought of. She was suddenly stunned, and then reached out to pull her bangs away from Xu Qiansu's face. Open your eyes and say.

"No, they can't go." Xu Qiansu said seriously.

Xu Qiansu was unwilling to involve Ma Li and Rong Yue in the face of danger. As for Cattleya... if she used it as bait, wouldn't she scare Team Rocket into overturning the plan overnight?

Therefore, considering safety, Xu Qiansu is the most suitable candidate.

Shizhi pursed her lips for a while, then glanced sideways at Xu Qiansu, "A man and a woman alone, late at night, during the temple fair, ran to a remote and uninhabited corner... What do you think they were doing?"

What to do? Of course I'm going to do it.

Xu Qiansu rolled his eyes, "Do you still care about this? What the Rockets think of us is not important at all."

Shizhi spread her hands and said, "That's up to you."

"Gardevoir~" came the voice of Gardevoir. Xu Qiansu turned her head and saw that Gardevoir was holding the little marsupial and standing in front of a stall selling masks.

Xu Qiansu walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gardevoir pointed to a plastic skull mask of Caracalla, then pointed to the small marsupial and chuckled.

"Xu Qiansu?" Cattleya's voice came from the side again.

Xu Qiansu turned her head and looked.

"Wow!" Cattleya wore a Gothic-style mask to cover her small face. She suddenly approached Xu Qiansu, opened her hands, and let out a whooshing sound.

"How are you? Have you been scared by this lady?" She was wearing a mask and her expression couldn't be seen clearly, but judging from her tone, her expression must have been complacent and arrogant.

Xu Qiansu couldn't help but laugh. He also took off a fox-shaped mask from the stall, put it on, and barked at Cattleya.

"What? Are you a primary school student? Boring." Cattleya said in a disgusting tone.

Xu Qiansu silently put the mask on the side of her face and silently paid the boss.

Ma Li turned around, her slender shoulders trembling slightly, and a clear and cheerful voice came, "The purpose of Cattleya doing that is to get you to do this kind of thing with her, so as to find a chance to laugh at you... but you still..." I really got fooled...Xu Qiansu, are you a primary school student?"

Xu Qiansu silently took off the mask again, and then handed it to the Dream Demon floating next to him, "The white fox mask is very nice. Do you want to put it on and have a look?"

The dream demon glanced at the fox mask, then turned his face away and said, "...It's so ugly that I don't want to wear it."

Ma Li chuckled again, her slender shoulders shaking even more violently.

Xu Qiansu had no choice but to put on the mask silently and pinned it to the side of her face.

"Ah...and my mask~" Cresselia floated in front of the stall with a surprised look on her face.

"After all, you are also very popular in Yuanzhu City." Xu Qiansu took a look and saw that there was indeed a Cresselia-style mask.

He was going to pay for it.

Cresselia looked at her for a few times before turning her face away and said in a disgusted tone, "You made me look really ugly."

Xu Qiansu quietly took back the banknotes, thinking why did she come to the temple fair?

Rongyue held Vulpix in her arms, looking here and there with some curiosity. Suddenly, Shizhi stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Rongyue looked back at her and tilted her head slightly.

"There will be a large-scale dance later, a sacrificial dance..." Shizhi looked at Xu Qiansu's back standing in front of the mask stall and said.

"Sacrificial dance?"

"That's right, but having said that, it's not a very professional thing. Just go up and dance casually. The key is... as long as you go up and dance the sacrificial dance, you can get the blessing of the Phoenix King, which will bring good luck. ." Shizhi said seriously.

"This...isn't this a lie?" Rongyue Liu frowned, thinking that Shizhi still believed this?

"This is a custom passed down from ancient times in Enzhu City. It's hard to tell whether it's true or not... The key is," Shiori paused, then continued, "I am the shrine maiden of Enzhu Shrine. I can help you... or It’s Xu Qiansu who’s fighting for a spot... maybe this will help you... I’d rather believe that it’s there than that it’s not~”

As he spoke, Shizhi took out a small jade plaque from his arms with the word "Yuanzhu" engraved on it.

It seems to be produced by Enju Shrine...

"My matter!?" Rong Yue was stunned for a moment, her tone was a bit startled, "You know?"

"I know you haven't lost your memory. Xu Qiansu has already told me." Shizhi nodded slightly.

Rongyue hesitated. If this was the case, then she was indeed a little moved... Just like Shizhi said, it's better to believe that it exists than to believe that it doesn't exist.

And it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work. Treating it as an event at the temple fair is already very interesting.

"Then... thank you." Rongyue took the small jade sign and said to Shizhi with some gratitude.

"It's a small thing. If you don't use privileges for personal gain at the moment, then when will you use them?" Shizhi said with a cheerful smile and her hands behind her back.

Saying that, Shiori couldn't help but stretched out her arms to hold Rongyue, and put her little face on her shoulder affectionately, "But I've been calling you Lillie these days, it's so weird... What's your real name?"

Rong Yue shrank her neck a little cautiously and whispered, "Rong Yue."

"The moonlight is like water...it sounds so good!"

"Thank you..." Rong Yue became more reserved. She was just enthusiastic and bold in front of Xu Qiansu.

Shiori took a few steps back and smiled happily.

"Want to drink?" At this time, Xu Qiansu came over with two large cups of milk tea.

"Thank you~" Shizhi winked at Xu Qiansu and smiled again.

"What are you talking about?" Xu Qiansu handed the milk tea to Rong Yue and then asked curiously.

"Are you so possessive that you even want to listen to girls' private conversations?" Shiori looked disgusted.

"If you don't want to say it, just say it." Xu Qiansu rolled her eyes, then looked at Rong Yue and pointed behind her, "Let's go, this temple fair is very large, and there are many places to play."

"Um."

Everyone walked forward again, playing step by step... As an annual feast in Yuanzhu City, this temple fair does have many interesting places.

Even Cattleya seems to be enjoying it...but the main reason is that she can find all kinds of things to tease Xu Qiansu, or to mock Ma Li.

Of course, Ma Li is not to be outdone, and she can always find all kinds of novel things to fight back...but Xu Qiansu will be affected every time.

As they walked around, the number of vendors everywhere decreased and was replaced by a building similar to a shrine.

There is an open space in front of the shrine.

There were torches placed all around, surrounding the clearing.

Several men and women in kimonos were wearing masks, holding torches, and dancing naturally.

Wearing a kimono, wearing a mask, and holding a torch are all ritual requirements.

"That's it... Hold the jade token, put on the mask, and get the torch from the open space, and you can go up and dance... You can invite Xu Qiansu to go with you, he will definitely not refuse... It doesn't matter if he doesn't wear a kimono." Shizhi approached Rongyue and lowered her voice.

"Um, um... ok." Rong Yue looked a little nervous... not because she was shy about dancing, but because she was shy about inviting Xu Qiansu.

And it was in front of Cattleya and Ma Li.

But she wanted to try.

She also wanted to be like Cattleya, who could be as intimate with Xu Qiansu in public as she wanted.

Shizhi looked at Rongyue's side face, then put her hands behind her back, slowly retreated, and finally disappeared from the crowd.

She wanted to be the bait alone, not for any special reason, but because... Xu Qiansu was worried that she would be in danger, and so was she, and she didn't want Xu Qiansu to be in danger because of her.

Shiori felt that her behavior was a bit silly, but when she was really faced with a choice, she still felt that this silly decision was the best... After all, she couldn't drag Xu Qiansu into danger without any psychological burden.

No matter what, she believed that Xu Qiansu was one of her rare close friends.

Xu Qiansu, Cattleya, and Ma Li stood among the crowd, watching the sacrificial dance with interest.

Xu Qiansu asked curiously, "Are they inviting gods?"

Ma Li said calmly, "Feudal, where do gods come from in this world? At most, there are only legendary Pokémon."

Cattleya said in a disdainful tone, "Ignorance, this is a sacrificial dance, a custom unique to the Johto area. It is said that it will be blessed by the Phoenix King... If you believe this, I will laugh at you forever."

Rong Yue took a deep breath, then came to Xu Qiansu's side, pointed to the open space, and asked, "Can you dance with me?"

"Huh?" Cattleya narrowed her almond-shaped eyes and looked sideways at Rong Yue.

Rong Yue's heart was pounding.

But Cattleya only looked at Rong Yue for a few times and then looked away and nodded slightly, which meant that Xu Qiansu was allowed to go.

"Huh?" Ma Li gave Cattleya a slightly strange look.

"Thank you." Rongyue thanked Cattleya seriously.

"I said, because you will not pose a threat to me in essence, and because your status is somewhat special, I allow you to do some things that are not too transgressive." Cattleya looked sideways at the sacrificial dance. "There is no physical contact anyway."

When had Cattleya ever said this to her? Ma Li was even more confused.

And Xu Qiansu...his attention is on other things.

He looked around and murmured, "Where's Shiori..."

Xu Qiansu was silent for a while, and then suddenly he took off the fox mask on the side of his face and put it on Rong Yue.

"Eh? Huh?" Rong Yue blushed instantly... This, wearing a mask in front of Cattleya, isn't it a little too complacent?

Cattleya was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Qiansu with a somewhat dangerous look.

"Please, Miss Cattleya." Xu Qiansu said to Cattleya.

"Huh?" Cattleya frowned.

Xu Qiansu finished this sentence briefly, then stretched out her hand to Gardevoir, as if she didn't want to waste a moment, and said: "Gardevoir, mask."

"Gardevoir?" Gardevoir tilted her little face... Speaking of masks, she certainly has one.

In Gardevoir's satchel, there was a mask... At first, Team Rocket tried desperately to snatch it, even sending out Needle Bees, battleships and fighter jets... that silver-white mask that could call Cresselia.

Gardevoir took it out from his satchel.

Xu Qiansu took the mask, immediately held Rong Yue's wrist in one hand, and strode into the open space.

He released his hand from Rong Yue's wrist, pulled up the torch from the ground, and then turned around to face the dark crowd in front of him.

This is the center of the temple fair, so there are naturally many people.

The young girl who was still dancing the sacrificial dance in the middle of the clearing could not help but turn her head to look at the handsome boy and the blond girl wearing a fox mask who suddenly came forward, a little surprised.

"Sir, do you have a jade medal?" An old man who seemed to be a priest came over quickly and said in a stern tone.

With that said, he grabbed Xu Qiansu with one hand, trying to drive him away.

The sacrificial dance is sacred, and disrespectful people like Xu Qiansu are absolutely not allowed to cause trouble!

Xu Qiansu waved the torch suddenly, and sparks flew everywhere, forcing the priest back.

"Sorry, I have something important to do at the moment."

In the night, sparks flew in front of Xu Qiansu. He held a torch in one hand and put on the silver mask that could call Cresselia with the other hand. Then he turned his head and looked at the dark crowd in front of him.

The silver-white mask covered his face, which was hollow and showed no expression.

Among these people, there must be an informant from the Rockets.

As for Shizhi, in order to prevent Xu Qiansu from being put in danger, she went to act as a bait alone... Naturally, Xu Qiansu would not sit idly by in such a thing.

Shizhi has a stubborn temper and does not listen to Xu Qiansu's advice, nor is he willing to accept Xu Qiansu's help.

Therefore, Xu Qiansu's actions at this moment have one and only one meaning...

Team Rocket, the miko from Enju Shrine are here, and the mask of Cresselia is also here.

Come and grab it.
