Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 267 Important things must be said three times

After saying goodbye to Ash and the others, Li Shuwen looked at Shinji.

"Shinji, are you sure you'll be okay traveling alone?"

Shinji nodded. "I'm fine. I'm actually more relaxed without her."

Li Meining gritted her teeth, "What are you saying! It's as if I've been holding you back the whole time!"

Shinji calmly retorted, "Isn't that right? Who started the fire, and almost set the tent and the forest ablaze?"

Li Meining lowered her head awkwardly.

Li Shuwen patted Shinji on the shoulder, "Shinji, you've worked hard."

Li Shuwen took a notebook out of his backpack and handed it to Shinji.

"These are some Pokémon massage techniques I've recently collected. Take a good look at them; they can stimulate acupoints in Pokémon after intense training."

"It speeds up Pokémon recovery, which is perfect for you."

Shinji's training intensity is high, so he will definitely use all of these massage techniques.

Even with training, Ash wouldn't reach Shinji's level.

I wonder how long Ash's training enthusiasm will last after today's battle.

After all, Ash collected all eight badges and returned to Pallet Town for special training, but all he ended up doing was a nice trip around Pallet Town.

It had almost no training effect.

Shinji took the notebook. "I will definitely study the contents carefully."

Actually, the notebook was a gift specially prepared for Shinji.

Although Shinji didn't say it, Li Meining must have caused him a lot of trouble.

However, Shinji also gained a free bodyguard.

No need to worry about sudden attacks from ferocious Pokémon in the forest.

Li Meining waved her hand, "Shinji, I'll finish things up as soon as possible and come back to find you. We'll attend the Quartz Conference together then."

Shinji nodded. "When you get back, don't just focus on eating and forget about training. The Indigo League isn't that simple."

Shinji wasn't worried about whether Li Meining could get eight badges.

He just felt that Li Meining was in a bad state to attend the Quartz Conference.

The ranking is not expected to be very high.

Li Meining's Pokémon skills are actually not that bad.

However, Li Meining's command ability is insufficient, and if she cannot exert her influence, it is as if she has no influence at all.

"Okay, housekeeper!"

Li Meining made a face at Shinji.

Shinji ignored her and respectfully bid farewell to Cynthia, Cattleya, and Shiran.

"Then I'll set off first."

Then return to the Flying Fortress to officially return to the Sinnoh region.

Li Meining suddenly thought of something. Li Shuwen had come to pick her up this time, saying that he had something important to tell her.

As a result, they all set off and went back.

I haven't told her yet what the important thing is.

"Brother, why did you take me back?"

Li Shuwen rubbed Li Meining's head and said with a smile, "I've found a way that might allow you to see your mother and let your mother see you too."

"Let Mom know that you've grown into a beautiful young lady."

Li Meining stood there, stunned. "Who are you seeing?"

Li Shuwen maintained his smile, "I'll take you to see your mother."

Li Meining seemed a little dazed. "Brother, who are you going to see?"

Li Shuwen nodded. "You heard me right, it's about going to see Mom."

Li Meining hesitated for a moment, "But...Mom, she..."

Li Meining lowered her head; her mother had died in childbirth.

This led the kind-hearted Li Meining to believe that she was the one who caused her mother's death.

It's what made Dad become the颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of being listless, decadent, or dispirited) person he is today.

If it weren't for Li Shuwen's meticulous care, Li Meining wouldn't be as lively as she is now.

Li Shuwen placed his warm hand on Li Meining's head and embraced her.

"There's only a sliver of hope that the Pokémon's power might not be strong enough to allow us to see Mom."

"I hope you won't be disappointed."

Li Meining shook her head. "Even if there's only a sliver of hope, I'm willing to try!"

"Mom looks so beautiful in the photos, she must be even more beautiful in person!"

Li Shuwen nodded. "That's right, Mom is ten times prettier than in the photos!"

Li Meining smiled and said, "Then I definitely want to see my mother!"

Seeing that Li Meining was alright, Jia Deliya stepped out from the corner and said excitedly:

"Xiao Ning, come on, let's go to my room and play games!"

"OK!"

The two little girls skipped and hopped into the room to play games.

At this moment, Cynthia walked to Li Shuwen's side and said softly, "Although Xiao Ning appears calm, I can sense the sadness in her heart."

Li Shuwen nodded, "Only by seeing her mother can Xiao Ning's mindset be changed, and her future will not be limited."

Compared to Li Shuwen, Li Meining has a better chance of becoming the Fighting Champion of the Sinnoh region.

As for Li Shuwen, he is the man destined to become the Sinnoh champion.

"When you get back, tell him why you went to the Alola region."

Cynthia nodded. "It really wasn't good to keep it from Uncle all this time."

When they went to the room to play games, Jia Deliya could clearly sense that Li Meining was not in the right state of mind.

She also tried her best to comfort Li Meining.

"Xiao Ning, try this. It's a cookie made with butter that was air-shipped from the Carlos region."

Li Meining stuffed a cookie into her mouth and smiled.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Cattleya sighed inwardly; both siblings were so gentle.

Their mother must be a gentle and beautiful woman!

Back in the Sinnoh region, the Flying Fortress was parked in the clouds above the outskirts of Veilwall City, with Shilan staying behind to manage the ship.

Li Shuwen and his group drove a flying car back to the backyard of the Curtain Dojo.

Li Shuwen said, "Now a challenger should be coming. Xiao Ning, you're in charge of looking after Cynthia and Gadria."

"I'll go greet the challenger."

Caldea was very excited. "Can I go watch? I haven't really watched any gym battles before!"

Li Shuwen nodded, "No problem."

Upon learning of Li Shuwen's return, they were to accept the trainers' challenge.

The trainers waiting in the reception room all wanted Kai to adjust their queue order to Li Shuwen's side.

Akai said with a smile, "Master said that the first trainer he accepted was an odd number, so he would accept challenges from trainers with odd-numbered reservations."

"As for the so-called Midas touch, that's just flattery; it doesn't actually have that much effect."

But the trainers simply didn't believe it.

I immediately thought of Li Shuwen's team.

The Midas Touch skill doesn't trigger very often, but what if it does trigger when it's his turn?

But Li Shuwen didn't care and only accepted odd numbers.

The trainers could only lament their bad luck in not getting an odd number in the queue.

After a busy afternoon, Master Li Shuwen finally had time to start preparing dinner.

At the dinner table, Li Shuwen looked at Li Dazhuang and said, "Dad, aren't we going to the Alora region?"

"Actually, there is a Pokémon in the Alola region that allows people to see deceased people in the mist."

"So, this time we're actually going to the Alola region to see Mom."

Li Dazhuang's eyes widened. "Who do you think we're going to see?"

Li Shuwen: "..."

You two really are father and daughter, you behave exactly the same.

Is this the thick skin of a fighting genius?

"It's Mom!"

Li Dazhuang jumped up, refusing to finish his meal, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's set off now!"
