Chapter 589: These Kentaros are somewhat involved.
Alliance calendar year 798, February 12th.

In front of the Little Key Trail Lighthouse.

This is the Lighthouse Research Institute, the research institute of two famous Pokémon doctors in Padia.

At the same time, this is also the home where Paipa grew up, a place full of memories and a little bit of sadness.

It was rare that Papa left the Grape Academy early in the morning and hurried back here.

He even made a special trip to the nearby Pingdie Town and borrowed a few capable helpers from Luo Mu.

"A pair of mice, I'll leave the cleaning of dust and spider webs to you."

"Skillful Blacksmith, please repair some of the broken furniture."

"Almost, doll. Today I'll ask you to teach me how to cook."

Piper bowed solemnly to several Pokémon, his eyes full of seriousness.

If he were to say who he is closest to and who he relies on the most besides his parents, that person would definitely be his mentor, Luo Mu, the most reliable brother in his heart, who has cultivated him step by step and changed his father and mother's views.

Therefore, after hearing the news, Papa's first reaction was to ask Luo Mu for help, just like when the strange incident at the Padia Pit occurred before, he chose to go to Luo Mu first.

But this time, unlike the last dangerous incident, it is something worth celebrating.

As the New Year approached, Doctors Olin and Futu, who had been in Area Zero for almost a year, and Papa's parents applied to the Padia Alliance, and Yaci readily approved their leave applications.

Rather, even Ye Ci felt that they should take a break and go home to accompany their children.

If Luo Mu hadn't been with Papa all the time, Ye Ci felt that the child would probably have some psychological problems.

Being left behind as a child is a very tragic thing, and it can even be said to be a shadow on childhood.

Ye Ci couldn't even bring herself to ask the two doctors to continue working overtime, as she was afraid that she would be hung up on the street light if she was not careful.

From December 12th until after the New Year, the exploration of the Padia Pit was suspended and all staff at the Zone Zero Research Institute were given a holiday.

After all, after a year of hard work, the research progress has been encouraging, and there have been three successful cases.

After the temporary closure of the Zone Zero Research Institute, Aoki, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Flying Department, who have returned to work after their vacation, and Xinli, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Ground Department, will form a team to go to the Padia Pit to escort the researchers all the way back.

——Although perhaps the two doctors and researchers no longer need an escort.

The ancient No. 1 Winged King and the future No. 1 Iron Snake have established a good relationship with humans. They will go to the ground as partners of the two doctors for a one-month "observation".

What impact will they have on the outside world, whether it is positive or negative, and whether they can adapt to the real modern ecosystem that is different from the hypothetical ancient and future ones are all things that need to be observed.

After careful consideration, Dr. Olin and Dr. Fortu decided to take the two paradoxical Pokémon home and observe them in their daily lives.

At the same time, in order to compensate Piper who is alone at home, the two professors plan to let Wing King and Iron Orochi be Piper's playmates while accompanying him.

At this time, Papa was busy packing before her parents came home.

——It was Luo Mu who told him the news.

In order to clean up the house that had not been lived in for a long time, Papa took a pair of mice from Luo Mu who were becoming more and more adept at housework.

Some of the furniture was damaged, so Papa borrowed a skilled blacksmith from Luo Mu to do some simple repairs.

At the same time, he also wanted to cook a table of hot dishes by himself to entertain his parents. Papa asked Luo Mu to take away the doll whose dishes tasted like home, hoping that it could supervise him to finish a table of dishes.

As she showed, Piper was thrilled to have her parents home.

After all, he is just a teenage boy who lacks love.

While Papa was preparing the food under the patient instruction of Almost Doll, his eyes would occasionally fall on a pair of mice that swept through every corner of the house like a whirlwind.

I don’t know where the little feather duster in the mouse’s hand was bought, but with just a light sweep, all the spider webs and dust disappeared.

There was an inexplicable flash of fiery red light where the feather duster passed, which puzzled Papa.

However, Papa decided to wait a few days and ask Luo Mu which market he bought it from, as he also wanted one.

The skilled blacksmith's movements were quite skillful. He held up a somewhat broken chair in one hand and started hammering at it.

It is not about releasing force arbitrarily, which will only cause the chair to fall apart completely.

The rhythmic tapping sounds were so pleasant to the ears that they almost became the background music in the room.

Time passed quickly and it was noon.

A few more Pokémon guests arrived outside Papa's house.

"Booo ...

Dragonite, holding a bouquet of flowers, knocked on the door politely. It was accompanied by Uruk-Yo and Flora Therapist. Uruk-Yo was also holding a large bouquet of flowers, while Flora Therapist was wearing several beautiful wreaths.

Dragonite, who used to take Papa home often, is very familiar with this route and came here specially for this trip.

After a while, Pepper, wearing an apron and with a few Band-Aids on her fingers, ran out in a hurry.

As soon as Piper opened the door, the three Pokémon handed him the bouquets and wreaths they were holding.

"This is what you are."

There was a hint of surprise in Piper's eyes, and her expression was a little surprised.

"Booo ...

Dragonite pushed past Papper and walked into the house, bending over.

It first pointed to the withered bouquet of flowers in the vase on the spotless dining table, and then pointed to the flowers it was holding.

"Boooo!"

Kuailong thought that his explanation should be quite easy to understand.

"Boni Booni!" "Huanhuan~"

Erguiyan and Hualiao Huanhuan also rushed to introduce the bouquets and wreaths they brought.

Papa realized they were meant to be a way for her to decorate her home with fresh flowers, and the wreaths would be a surprise for her parents when they returned home.

But why did Flower Therapy Ring prepare four wreaths?

Are the other two from my own and Mastiff Godfather?

If this happens, the spiny clams will probably be jealous.

Piper's mind was full of random thoughts, but that didn't stop him from accepting the bouquet and wreath, and thanking Dragonite for making the special trip.

After Dragonite and the others left with a pile of food, a hint of warmth appeared in Papper's eyes as she held a bouquet of flowers that looked freshly bloomed.

He could probably guess where the flowers in the bouquet came from. Although the other party did not show up today, he provided him with so much help.

In that case, I naturally can only make tonight's family dinner better to repay Luo Mu's help.

Papa then cleaned the vases and placed them in prominent positions at the entrance to the hall, on the dining table and in the living room, filled with clean water and fresh flowers.

The wreath was also put aside for the time being. Papa remembered that the wreath from the flower therapy ring could be kept fresh for a long time and would definitely be used tonight.

After doing all this, Papa returned to the kitchen to continue her struggle at the gentle urging of Almost Doll.

At the same time, in front of the Xiaoji Trail Lighthouse, in the vast South Padilla Sea, Luo Mu, wearing only swimming trunks, which was equivalent to winter swimming, rode on the back of Minas, looking at the calm sea ahead.

There was still a little snow in the sky, but this was not the polar region and the sea was not frozen yet.

Above the calm sea, a mermaid with a black shell was floating quietly on the sea, letting the flow of the sea water carry her along.

Its body flickered with a faint blue light, and it also flickered at the same frequency as the sea water flowed.

That was Tapu Fin-Fin, and at this moment, it was establishing communication with the ocean currents in the South Padilla Sea.

This is not something that can be accomplished overnight. According to Tapu Fin-fin, even if an altar is specially set up to perform a ceremony to thank nature, it will take a lot of time.

It’s just that today is the first day, and Luo Mu planned to come here specially to observe.

Tapu and the other Pokémon are closely related to nature. The current situation is like Tapu Fin-Fin is "selling" itself to the nature of Padya, gaining the recognition of nature, and then building a connection with the water flow to obtain energy and power from the water flow.

Compared to other regions, Padia is a rare "territory" that is not inhabited by any legendary elves.

The legendary elves here are either from outside or come from the past and the future. Perhaps Tailebagos can be considered a local legend?

But extinction due to crustal movement is lame.

Luo Mu felt that because of these factors, Tapu Fin-Fin's communication with nature might be smoother.

Before doing this, Luo Mu thought about it and decided to inform Ye Ci.

Ye Ci on the other end of the phone probably had no opinion, but her voice was inexplicably excited, which was confusing.

It was also because of this phone call that Luo Mu learned from Ye Ci that Dr. Futu and Dr. Olin had voluntarily applied for leave, and he directly informed Papa during class.

Judging from the time, Papa should be preparing dinner by now, and Dragonite and the others should have also delivered the bouquet that Chihuixing had packed.

Luo Mu felt at ease knowing that there were similar kids helping him.

After all, this is a rare opportunity for other families to reunite, so I won’t go there. I will just lend a helping hand at the critical moment.

It was only a few days after Wawa arrived at the farm that he showed extraordinary professionalism.

The effects of the medicinal diet treatment were not noticeable due to the short duration, but it did help the flower therapy team relieve a lot of pressure.

There are many Pokémon in the farm, and no matter how harmonious it is, it is not uncommon to have occasional friction or injuries during competition.

The Almost Doll with the characteristic of "Healing Heart" is extremely skilled in healing, and its milk supply is amazing.

The flower therapist Huanhuan now has some free time to take care of the flowers in the glass greenhouse. Luo Mu plans to ask her and the queen bee to plant the Gracitia flower seeds given by Ms. Shuzi and Mr. Xue Zhong in the next few days.

Maybe next spring, we can really attract some Xie Mi to stop here.

But there is a good side and a bad side to things.

The vitality and physique of Pokémon are quite amazing. The thirteen Kentaro were still the appearance of newborn calves a few days ago, but in the blink of an eye, they grew to a size only slightly smaller than ordinary Kentaro.

Especially the eldest brother, Kentaro, who is the cub of Miltank with the amazing "herbivorous" trait of eating an astonishing amount of food on the farm. His physique is comparable to that of an adult Kentaro.

Luo Mu deeply suspected that this had something to do with the blessing that the Lotus Crown King bestowed on the elf egg.

Too strong and too energetic.

At least half the time throughout the day, the entire ranch area shook as if there was an earthquake.

The instigators were the thirteen little Kentaros who had no place to expend their energy and could only run wildly.

Even though it has only been born and hatched for a few days, it looks like an adult.

And there were some things that he found difficult to talk about.

He suspected that these Kentaros were somewhat M-related.

To put it bluntly, it's the M in masochism, not the M in Mother.

After all, how could a serious Kentaro collide with another person until he was covered in bruises, and then, after receiving treatment from the Almost Doll and the Flower Therapy Ring, continue to collide with excitement as if nothing had happened?

What happened to Xiaozhi's group of Kentaro's genes?

When Luo Mu thought of the chaotic scene with snow and dust flying all over the sky, he felt a terrible headache.

Kapu Fin-Fin’s communication with nature continues until sunset, when the orange-red sun disappears on the other side of the sea level.

Luo Mu did not ask about its progress, but just called it and the Qiuqiu sea lion who was playing in the water nearby, and prepared to go home for dinner together.

I don't know when the snow stopped. When I passed Xiaoyao Trail, I looked in the direction of the lighthouse.

Luo Mu was still thinking that the two doctors should be returning home soon.

With the help of the Almost Doll, Papa worked until the evening and finally prepared a table of dishes that satisfied herself.

The pair of mice and the blacksmith had gone back together a long time ago, and the only Pokémon left in the house were Papper's own Pokémon and the Almost Dolls.

"Thank you so much for today, doll."

Piper thanked the Almost Doll softly.

"Tabnai."

Almost Doll shook his head, and at Pepper's surprised expression, held his fingers covered with Band-Aids.

The doll almost closed its eyes and began to mobilize its energy.

After a wave of life-rich energy, Papa was surprised to find that the wounds under the Band-Aids were already slightly itchy, and some wounds that had not yet been covered with Band-Aids disappeared completely.

"This is--"

"Tabunay~"

Almost Doll smiled lightly and withdrew her hand.

For a chef, the wounds on his hands are evidence of his hard work, like medals for a soldier who has fought in battle.

It is precisely because of these wounds that Papa’s cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds today.

Can--

But for a child waiting for his parents to come home, these wounds would only add to the heaviness and would not be suitable for this rare atmosphere.

Spend a wonderful night with your parents.

After leaving its blessing, the Almost Doll said goodbye to Papa, turned around and left the Little Key Trail Lighthouse.

Almost immediately after the doll left.

Two hurried figures and a special creature that was curiously looking at its surroundings appeared on the path outside the lighthouse.

Looking at the warm light coming from the clear windows, the owners of the two figures hesitated for a long time, rehearsing their words in their minds, and then nervously rang the doorbell.

I don't know when it started snowing outside again, and the door opened as the crisp sound of wind chimes rang out in the snowy night.

Looking at their son, whose eyes had turned red without them noticing, Olin and Futu said softly, "We're back, Papa."
