My Pokémon Story of Seasons

"That should be about right!"

Looking at the cleaned-up cave, Tong Hua felt a sense of satisfaction welling up inside her.

The cave was incredibly clean and refreshing after being cleaned up, and the air felt fresher as the sunlight streamed in.

Although it's still a bit damp and cold, it at least looks habitable.

Furthermore, Tong Hua also took the initiative to make several simple beehives and place them outside the cave.

It is dry, sheltered from the wind, and sunny. To prevent moisture, the ventilation opening below was raised by 30 centimeters.

Considering that Pokémon reproduce by laying eggs, Tong Hua did not build a brood box in the beehive, which means that the entire internal space of the beehive can be used to store honey.

Furthermore, each of these beehives, crafted by woodcarvers, possesses a unique effect.

Moreover, they are all very practical. For example, [increased reserves] or [increased production] are both positive effects that can further increase profits.

Even if those three bees don't come back, Tong Hua is determined to raise bees.

If all else fails, we can just buy a few from Grandpa Yang.

Just as Tong Hua was envisioning the ranch's development plan, a familiar "buzzing" sound suddenly came from the distant sky.

Tong Hua suddenly looked up and saw a huge bee flying towards them in the afterglow of the setting sun.

That was the Queen Bee.

"They're back!"

"Tong Hua exclaimed in surprise. The foam squirrel immediately jumped onto his shoulder, and the forest tortoise also stretched its neck to look around."

The Queen Bee gracefully landed in front of everyone, her ruby-like compound eyes carefully examining Tong Hua and the Pokémon in the ranch.

Six swarms of bees emerged from under her skirt, some of which were the same swarms of bees that had left earlier. They surrounded Tong Hua and chirped merrily.

"Oh my!"

The remaining three bees immediately surrounded the sweet bamboo, replicating the previous scene.

"What a big bee...it doesn't seem to mean any harm."

Tong Hua recalled the warning Su Ren had just given her, silently cheered herself up, and then carefully took two steps forward before speaking to the Queen Bee.

"Welcome to Fairy Tale Ranch. I am Tong Hua, the owner of this place."

"Buzz!"

The queen bee's wings vibrated rapidly, and she unconsciously emitted a majestic sound.

Tong Hua took a deep breath, and suddenly, he saw the two Celebi also return to the ranch.

Knowing that Rabbi was sometimes watching over her, Tong Hua finally felt at ease and opened up to the Queen Bee.

"Our environment here is very good, with plenty of sunshine and clean water. There are also many kinds of fruit trees and flowers."

Tong Hua smiled and pointed to the surrounding orchards, "If you're willing to stay, I'll take good care of you."

The queen bee tilted her head slightly, seemingly deep in thought. She looked around and flew into the cave to observe.

Then, its gaze lingered on the beehive made by Tong Hua for a moment before it let out a soft chirp.

"Buzzing".

After receiving instructions, several honeybees went into the hive to inspect it. A short while later, they flew back to the queen bee, excitedly flapping their wings, clearly very satisfied with their surroundings.

The queen bee nodded, then gracefully flew to Tong Hua and gently touched the back of his hand with her forelegs, as if to express her approval.

Tong Hua realized what was happening, grasped the queen bee's forelegs, and offered a kiss on her hand.

In this way, both parties reached an agreement. The queen bee family officially moved into Fairy Tale Ranch and will share the honey they produce with Tong Hua.

"That's wonderful!" Tong Hua exclaimed happily. "From today onwards, you are all members of Fairy Tale Ranch!"

The foam squirrel jumped up happily, and the forest tortoise nodded slowly.

Although Sweet Bamboo was a little shy being surrounded by the three bees, she still showed a sweet smile.

Just then, two shrubs floated down from the sky, circled the queen bee, and let out a clear laugh.

The Queen Bee seemed somewhat surprised by the appearance of the pink Celebi, but she maintained her dignified demeanor and responded in a friendly manner.

……

That night, Tong Hua recorded everything that had happened that day in her diary.

By the light of the flickering oil lamp, he wrote the following after recording the income and expenditure.

"Today is a memorable day. No, in fact, every day here is memorable."

But today is more special than ever; our ranch has welcomed many new faces. Everything is moving in a positive direction.

With the ranch becoming more lively, I'm going to visit Sunshine Ranch again tomorrow to use my savings to buy some chickens and ducks, as well as new Pokémon to increase the ranch's production capacity.

I have many ideas and a lot of Pokémon on my shortlist. But I'll have to go to the event tomorrow to see for myself before making a final decision.

As Tong Hua wrote this, images of Pokémon involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

For example, Pokémon like Saltstone, Minifox, Wooloo, and Farfetch'd should be enough to buy several Pokémon with 40 League Coins.

"The second batch of crops will be ripe tomorrow, which will be a good time to go to Sunshine Ranch to get another batch of seeds."

Every day here is so fulfilling. I feel incredibly lucky to have been transported to the world of Pokémon.

Looking back now, I think the reporter asked me how I felt today. I told him I felt great, and now I realize I wasn't wrong.

That's all for now. Tomorrow will be another beautiful day.

After finishing writing, Tong Hua closed the notebook and blew out the kerosene lamp.

On the bed, Celebi and the foam squirrel were already fast asleep. On the windowsill, the potted sweet bamboo was also emitting soft snoring sounds.

The forest turtle, whose size had increased dramatically after evolution, managed to enter the wooden house with Tong Hua's help and had already fallen asleep on the floor next to the bed.

In the ranch, all the Pokémon were already asleep.

Milkcan, Totodile, the Big-tailed Fox family, the Queen Bee family, and even the carp kings in the pond were all asleep, having drifted off into a sweet dream.

Tong Hua glanced at his watch; it was already past midnight. He quietly lay down on the bed, pulled the covers over himself, and fell into a deep sleep…

The next morning, Tong Hua woke up to a knock on the door.

Outside the door, patrolman Renmei came to receive the shipment.

Tong Hua glanced at the clock in the room; it was only 6 o'clock. Renmei had arrived more than an hour early today.

Tong Hua rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked with some confusion, "Strange, Renmei, why are you here so early today?"

"Don't even mention it... The chief stayed at our base last night, and this morning we all woke up an hour early..."

Renmei looked a little tired. When Tonghua heard her mention the word "chief", she immediately thought of Saiwen, who had given her an award yesterday.

The chief ranger dressed like a cowboy from the West.

Tong Hua couldn't help but yawn, and while putting on her coat, she asked, "Is the chief ranger this strict?"

Renmei shook her head with a wry smile: "It's not that he's strict... it's just that his partner Pokémon is too energetic."

She pointed to her slightly dark circles under her eyes, "That Röntgen cat started running around the base at 4:30 in the morning, waking everyone up."

The foam squirrel crawled out of the blankets, jumped onto Tong Hua's shoulder, and tilted its head curiously.

Tong Hua stroked its fur casually, then suddenly remembered something: "Wait, a Xenophon Cat? I remember the Chief rode a Starhawk yesterday?"

"The Chief Ranger has many partners," Renmei explained. "Unlike us lower-level rangers who only have fixed partners, the Chief Ranger not only has multiple partners, but can also use Summoning Tracks to summon their partner Pokémon anytime, anywhere."

Ah, Tong Hua, you probably don't know this. Summoning Track is a function that uses specific symbols to summon your partner Pokémon regardless of distance.

It's said to be the highest technology in the entire Ranger League, it's so enviable! I want to use that function too, so I can teleport Pokémon to my side anytime.

Upon hearing Renmei's words, Tong Hua immediately remembered that this seemed to be something that had appeared in the game.

It's similar to a remote summoning system, and after summoning, you can send the Pokémon back.

It is indeed quite high-tech.

"Anyway, is there any cargo to be shipped today?"

Tong Hua thought for a moment, then suddenly scratched his head sheepishly.

"Today's quantity might be a bit high..."
