After recovering from her injuries, Su Shi stayed in the hospital and didn't get to see Xiao Zhi in person, so she didn't have time to thank him or even know who he was.

The team members beside her were watching her with concern, which made it difficult for Su Shi to go to Xiao Zhi herself, especially since her injuries prevented it.

"Little Su Shi, are you alright?"

Gao Songdeng watched nervously, feeling a surge of fear, but she swallowed hard to suppress it.

"Hmm, it's alright, Xiaodeng." Facing the culprit who could be considered the source of the problem, Su Shi responded with her usual sweet voice and a gentle smile.

Since Su Shi had already agreed to play Team Rocket together, she didn't say much.

As long as this team (family) can continue, that's fine.

Within the group, the five of them together made Su Shi feel the presence of a family, which she cherished because she came from a single-parent family.

If I can maintain harmony within the team this time, then it's nothing at all.

only...

Not long after this incident, the team disbanded!

The reason is that the founder, Shoko Toyokawa, himself didn't want to continue!

On a rainy day, a suffocating atmosphere filled the training room. Gao Songdeng sat on the cold floor, anxiously contemplating tactics. The torrential rain outside the window filled her with unease and restlessness.

Crackle—.

Suddenly, the training room door opened, and Toyokawa Shoko rushed in through the rain. Nagasaki Motoyo, seeing this, was filled with surprise and joy.

"Xiao Xiang, that's great, you can come over."

"After all, you haven't been seen at school and haven't replied to any messages."

Nagasaki Motoyo hurried over, took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and tried to wipe the rain off Toyokawa Shoko's face.

However, Toyokawa Shoko frowned, unwilling to accept her kindness. She blinked, her face showing displeasure.

"I'm here today because I have something to say."

Under this indifferent gaze, Nagasaki Motoyo lowered her hand, put away her handkerchief, and faced the situation helplessly.

But Toyokawa Shoko continued her story, and after a moment's hesitation, she uttered her words.

"Please let me leave CRYCHIC (team name)."

Su Shi was completely dumbfounded at the time.

Don't go too far!

So what am I working so hard for?!

Things took an unexpected turn, and Lixi soon grabbed Xiangzi by the collar. As a mother, Su Shi could only try her best to ease the tension.

"Wait a minute, speak properly, okay? We were so happy together just now."

"Xiao Mu thinks so too, right?"

As Nagasaki Motoyo spoke, Takamatsu Akari turned her gaze, hoping to get her thoughts. The indifferent Wakaba Mutsumi sat there quietly, lowering her head when she noticed the gaze.

"I have never... felt happy about Pokémon battles."

"Eh?"

Why are they all talking so outrageously?

He inexplicably wanted to leave the team, and inexplicably said such tactless things at this crucial moment.

I'm so angry at my lousy teammate!

Since things had already developed to this point, Su Shi was helpless. As time went by, Gao Songdeng stopped coming to training the next day, causing the team to fall apart completely.

The new home, the place where I had placed my hopes and dreams, was gone in an instant.

"Wait... then why am I working so hard to fight the Rockets?"

Su Shi felt like a clown.

After leaving CRYCHIC, Su Shi once felt the presence of a home in this team. Because she came from a single-parent family, she was very reluctant to see the team, which was her new home, disbanded. She wanted to rebuild it and spent her days in a daze.

Until that day when I met the boy in front of me...

"If you're bored, could you battle my Pokémon?"

"What do you mean?...Do you think I'm boring?"

Su Shi's tone was slightly cold, revealing a sense of distance.

The boy in front of her exuded a sunny disposition that was truly overwhelming for her, a woman with a gloomy disposition.

"Yes, I'm really sorry I made you angry, but I'm a little worried about you. I see sadness in your eyes. If you don't mind, may I listen to what happened to you?"

"...Why did I...Never mind, it's fine then."

The feeling of hearing the voice and seeing the figure somewhere, combined with the boy's handsome smile, made Su Shi agree to the request.

On a quiet afternoon, two figures sat quietly on a bench, petals drifting down and covering Su Shi and Xiao Zhi's shoulders.

"It was clearly the girl who formed the team herself, but she said some strange things at the end, which caused the team to disband."

Su Shi recounted the story of his team.

“I think that girl must have had her reasons. Perhaps her family went bankrupt or she had other problems that prevented her from continuing.”

"I think she probably likes you guys the most, so just wait and see. Maybe when you meet again someday, you'll be back to how you were before."

"I will stay with you until then and witness your reconciliation."

After saying that, a smile as warm as spring sunshine appeared on Xiao Zhi's lips, instantly dispelling Su Shi's anxiety and unease.

Only then did she remember why she had an impression of this boy.

I never imagined that after being redeemed physically, I could also be redeemed spiritually.

A strange and inexplicable emotion kept erupting...

Her heartbeat quickened, her breathing became rapid, and only the subtle interplay of their heartbeats remained.

"Is it really possible?" Su Shi's voice was humble, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.

"Don't be so humble. If you're lonely, take my hand. I'll always be by your side."

Xiao Zhi spoke about this earnestly, wholeheartedly trying to dispel the other person's negative emotions.

She even racked her brains to transform her IQ into EQ, trying to prevent Su Shi from doing anything to harm her.

Of course, he forgot what he said the moment he uttered it.

All I remember is that I maxed out my emotional intelligence!

"Hmm?~" Su Shi smiled warmly, like sunshine, and took the other person's hand.

Does anyone else deserve such a wonderful husband?!

mine!

So what if we act in extreme ways?

As long as I maintain a long-term vegetarian mindset, I can make the impossible possible!

But it can't be done...

"Ash's dream is to become a Pokémon Master, so I can't just confess my feelings to him casually."

Su Shi's heart pounded like a drum. She gently leaned closer to Xiao Zhi, her red lips getting closer and closer to his. Feeling his breath, Su Shi placed a kiss on Xiao Zhi's lips.

"But can I fulfill my selfish wish first?"

...

Ugh... Su Shi is really too much...

Not far away, Aine secretly opened her gray pupils and quietly observed everything until she witnessed the moment of the kiss. Suddenly, a blush rose on her cheeks, and a feeling of longing spread across her face.

"...No, I need to find an opportunity first."

92 Ave Mujica already has 5 players.

"It really is huge."

Currently, the place where Xiaozhi is located is the largest training ground in the school, which basically gathers the strongest students in the entire school. As one of the top ten in the 'Cup Tournament', he is naturally qualified to come to this training ground.

However, since the tournament is held once a month, there are actually quite a lot of students participating, including some who are just there to fill the spots or who qualified through tournaments that are not even competitions.

For example, this month's tournament is the "Afro Buffalo Cup," and next month's tournament is the "Gear Cup," a special tournament for Coordinators and Performers.

Unfortunately, Xiaozhi had absolutely no interest in this type of performance, so he didn't learn much about it.

There are approximately 300 people, with a significant number in performing arts and training programs, so the proportion of weaker students is also quite large.

The training equipment gathered there was comprehensive, including weights, wristbands, and belts...

There are even many performance-related items, including various costumes and skirts.

This made Ash want to change his or his teammates' clothes.

You should know that in XY, Sun & Moon, and Sword & Shield, you can change into nice outfits.

You could spend an entire day just in the store.

Arrived in Zhu Zi? Oh my god, I really can't stand this school uniform!

Could you please suggest some cute or cool outfits? Clothes for gym leaders like Qishu or Glussa would also be great!

Why is there not one?

Xiao Zhi started complaining in his mind.

Sweeping across the performance department's area, there appeared to be stage equipment that actually sprayed blood.

Even when he passed by the stage, a large amount of blood was spilled on him, causing Team Rocket to have a stress reaction and instinctively take out a Poké Ball.

As a result, a girl with long brown hair shouted.

"Don't panic, it's just stage equipment!"

Xiao Zhi took a lick; it was sweet, like ketchup.

It's definitely a stage setup...

The acting department is working so hard!

"Your equipment malfunctioned, shouldn't you compensate us for something?"

Su Shi almost got into a fight with someone in order to protect him.

As for why they came to the large training ground, it seems there's something important to announce.

This didn't bother Ash. He preferred Pokémon battles with these people to the boring principal or chairman lecturing on stage.

There were still a lot of people we didn't get to see at the last tournament, so this time we'll be able to watch to our hearts' content.

First up is the tenth rising star, Ave Mujica!

They've gone from a two-person team in the last cup to a five-person team, all wearing masks and hiding their identities. They've accumulated enough points and tournament experience to participate in future high school leagues.

"Mujica already has 5 people? It's developing so fast!"

Xiao Zhi muttered to himself as he observed carefully.

Everyone felt that they possessed fighting power surpassing Aine's, and should not be underestimated.

Especially the blue-haired and blonde-haired girl, whose trainer combat power far surpassed that of Aine.

Aiyin: Why am I a unit of measurement?

"I really want to battle that blue-haired girl named OB or something," Ash couldn't help but sigh.

"Isn't that Xiao Xiang?" Su Shi muttered under her breath, not wanting to expose the truth.

If her boyfriend found out that the masked pervert was Toyokawa Shoko, he'd probably invite her right away, and then it would be their Pokémon party time.

To protect her boyfriend's virginity, Su Shi absolutely cannot reveal this!

Why is Ash staring at me so intently?

What a shame!

A blush crept across Xiangzi's face as he wore the strange mask, and he lowered his head shyly.
