I'm live-streaming Pokémon science popularization on New World.

Lin Dao looked at the sky; the setting sun had begun to dye the clouds on the horizon red.

A thought suddenly popped into Lin Dao's mind. This thought might be a bit risky, but if it succeeded, it would be an important step towards coexistence.

"Kangaroo," Lin Dao called softly, taking out the last two Orange Fruits from his backpack.

"Would you and your children like to come with us? There's a stream near our camp with plenty of water. Most importantly..."

He paused, then pointed in the direction he had come from.

"There are a group of Pokémon friends there who, like you, need a safe home."

"An injured Growlithe, several Oddish, Mushroom, and Lilyroot Dolls. They are all gentle and won't be hostile to you or your children."

The Kangaskhan clearly understood Lin Dao's words. It looked down at the little Kangaskhan in its arms, then looked in the direction Lin Dao was pointing.

Hesitation and wariness flashed in his heterochromatic eyes, but more than anything, there was a deep weariness. The hardship of raising a child alone, the tension of avoiding danger, the difficulty of finding food... all of these were written in those gentle eyes.

The baby kangaroo seemed to sense its mother's emotions. It gently tugged at its mother's hand and let out a soft, pleading cry: "Gah... Gah..."

It was as if it were saying, "Mommy, let's go! That two-legged creature gave us something delicious, and he doesn't seem bad."

Pichu hopped to Kangaskhan's feet, looked up at the big guy, and the electric sac on its cheek flickered with a faint electric light, as if expressing some kind of support.

The serpent bear had already eaten all the fruit it could find and was now scratching its ears with its hind paws, looking completely at ease with its situation.

It glanced at the marsupial, then at Lin Dao, and yawned, as if to say, "I don't care, there's food everywhere, and I can sleep anywhere."

The viewers in the live stream held their breath, and large blank spaces appeared in the chat, a rare occurrence.

Only a few streaks drifted by:

"Oh my god... he's inviting them..."

"Will the kangaroo agree?"

"This is a historic moment..."

"What am I witnessing...?"

"Please, please agree..."

"The kangaroo mom looks so tired..."

Everyone realized that what was happening before their eyes might be the first true "invitation" since the two worlds merged—not a capture, not an expulsion, but a sincere invitation from humans to Pokémon to live together.

The hesitation and wariness in the kangaroo's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a resolute determination and a subtle, almost imperceptible, sense of relief.

Finally, the Kangaskhan nodded slowly and solemnly.

It carefully picked up the baby kangaroo with one paw and put it back in the pouch, while gently patting Pichu's head with the other paw, as if to say, "Come on in too."

Pichu jumped up and down happily: "Pichu, Pichu!"

Seeing this, the snake-striped bear also waddled over and rubbed its nose against Li Hao's leg, indicating that it also wanted to join the migration.

Lin Dao smiled; it was a genuine, hopeful smile.

He stood up, nodded to Li Hao, and then said to the camera, "Well then, that concludes today's live stream. We're taking our new friends home now."

"At the same time tomorrow, I will continue to introduce you to more Pokémon and also show you the daily life of our little riverside home."

"Thank you for watching, and thank you for your courage—the courage to explore the unknown."

He waved goodbye: "Goodbye. May we all find a way to live in peace with this world."

The moment the live stream ended, the forest seemed to fall silent as well.

The setting sun cast long shadows on everyone. Lin Dao walked in front, followed closely by Li Hao. Kangaskhan followed with steady steps, Pichu hopped around its feet, and Zigzagoon would dart ahead to scout ahead and then sneak back to check if anything "shiny" had been left behind.

On the way back, Lin Dao deliberately slowed down.

He would stop from time to time and point out some plants or landforms to explain to the marsupials.

"See that bush with small red berries? You can eat those berries, but don't eat too many at once, or you'll get a stomachache."

"Be careful of that wetland ahead; there might be mud pits. Let's go around to the right; it's a bit further, but it's safer."

"This big tree has a natural hollow, so you can take shelter inside during a rainstorm."

The kangaroo listened attentively, its massive head tilted slightly, its eyes focused intently on the direction Lin Dao was pointing.

It occasionally responded with a low, guttural sound, a sound that had lost its initial wariness and gained more trust and gratitude.

Once, Pichu was attracted by the wildflowers by the roadside and ran into a thick patch of grass.

The kangaroo immediately stopped and let out a low growl of warning.

Seeing this, Lin Dao called softly, "Pichu, come back. There might be thorny bushes in that patch of grass that could prick you."

Pichu obediently ran back and nuzzled Lin Dao's cheek in gratitude.

Such interactions occurred many times along the way.

Each time, the trust in the kangaroo's eyes increased by one point.

It began to understand that this human not only provided food and shelter, but also genuinely cared about their safety.

As the sound of the stream reached us, the sky gradually darkened.

From afar, they could see the campsite. Growlithe sat in the center of the camp, cautiously observing its surroundings. Oddish pulled their feet out of the soil and lined up in a row. Mushrooms crowded on the rocks, and Lilyroots stood hand in hand by the stream.

Upon seeing Lin Dao return, Growlithe immediately stood up, wagging its tail as it ran over.

But when it saw the marsupial behind Lin Dao, it immediately stopped, lowered its body slightly, and let out a warning growl.

"It's alright, Growlithe." Lin Dao quickly stepped forward, squatted down, and stroked Growlithe's head.

"These are new friends, the Kangaskhan and its baby, and Pichu. They need a safe home, just like you."

Growlithe sniffed the air, then carefully examined the Kangaskhan.

The Kangaskhan stood still, making no aggressive gestures, but simply held the little Kangaskhan in its arms even tighter.

At this moment, the little kangaroo peeked out of its pouch and looked at Growlithe curiously.

Its innocent and pure eyes gradually relaxed Growlithe's tense body.

Finally, Growlithe wagged its tail and let out a friendly bark: "Woof!"

This signal seemed to lift all guard.

The walking grasses began to rhythmically sway their leaves, the mushroom caps glowed faintly, and the lily root dolls loosened their grip on each other, waving their leaves to their new friends.

The kangaroo gave Lin Dao a deep look, its eyes filled with gratitude, relief, and the peace of finally finding its home.

It led the little marsupial towards the creek, Pichu hopped along to follow, while the serpentine bear, already familiar with the area, darted to the forest path and Li Hao's campsite to see what good food was available.

Li Hao put down his backpack and let out a long sigh of relief.

Looking at this incredible sight before him, where different kinds of Pokémon coexisted peacefully in one corner, and the boundary between humans and Pokémon was gradually blurring, he suddenly felt that he might really be participating in writing history.
