Chapter 119: Look How Big and Round This Pie Is
Hearing Milotic's evaluation, Bai Feng looked at Sister Zhi Huo in confusion. Wasn't Sister Zhi Huo's appearance perfectly normal? Still so beautiful!
"You're the one with the ghastly appearance! A fellow with no sense of beauty at all!" Sister Zhi Huo glared fiercely at Milotic.
"I don't understand aesthetics?" Milotic laughed in anger. "If I hadn't promised Bai Feng, do you think I would have come here!"
Bai Feng also strongly disagreed with Sister Zhi Huo's words. How could Milotic not understand aesthetics? If it didn't understand aesthetics, how could it sing such a beautiful Singing Voice? That was the pinnacle of beauty, just like Sister Zhi Huo's own beauty.
Hearing Milotic's words, Sister Zhi Huo reluctantly shut her mouth, afraid of angering Milotic and making it turn around and leave.
At the same time, Mismagius was also secretly observing Zhi Huo, a hint of doubt arising in its heart. It tried to touch Zhi Huo with its Psychic Power, but the next second, purple light suddenly bloomed in Zhi Huo's eyes, and Mismagius's Psychic Power was all bounced back.
Mismagius looked at Zhi Huo with shock and uncertainty, as if it had been greatly frightened.
Seeing that Mismagius's expression wasn't right, Bai Feng asked in confusion, "Mismagius, what's wrong?"
"Muma~ Muma~" I'm fine, I'm fine...
Mismagius quickly shook its head.
Sister Zhi Huo glanced meaningfully at Mismagius, very satisfied that it hadn't spoken carelessly.
Shifting his attention from Mismagius, Bai Feng looked at Zhi Huo and said, "Sister Zhi Huo, I've already invited Milotic for you as agreed. Can you deliver the Stuff you promised me now?"
Hearing this, Zhi Huo looked at Bai Feng with a half-smile and said, "Of course, I won't go back on my word about what I promised you. I'm just very curious how you managed to invite Milotic."
Bai Feng couldn't help but look at Milotic, and heard Milotic say, "Bai Feng, there's no need to talk so much nonsense with her. If she doesn't give you the Stuff, we'll leave right now!" After speaking, it glared fiercely at Sister Zhi Huo again.
Seeing that Milotic seemed to be getting angry again, Zhi Huo quickly gave up asking. "Alright, alright... I won't ask, okay? Really, we haven't seen each other for so many years, why are you still dwelling on those old grudges!"
"Hmph~" Milotic snorted coldly, turned its head away, and no longer wished to look at Zhi Huo.
Zhi Huo then turned to Bai Feng and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go get the Stuff you want now." After speaking, she walked towards the Room.
About five or six minutes later, Zhi Huo walked out of the Room again, holding an exquisite wooden Box in her hand.
Walking up to Bai Feng, Zhi Huo opened the Box. Inside lay two thin pink Fragments. Their material was very similar to Diamond, but they emitted strong Fairy-type Energy fluctuations.
"This is..." Bai Feng looked at Zhi Huo in confusion.
"These are Fragments of the Sacred Diamond..." Zhi Huo looked at the Fragments in the Box, lost in thought. "...Only these two pieces are left..." The last sentence sounded a bit like she was talking to herself.
Closing the Box again, Zhi Huo placed it into Bai Feng's hand and said, "These were originally prepared for Carbink. I was planning to give them to you later, but now you can give one piece to your Hatterene, and the other piece directly to Carbink."
As for what Sacred Diamond Fragments were, Zhi Huo didn't explain to Bai Feng, but Bai Feng could guess that this must be related to Diancie again.
It seems Sister Zhi Huo and Diancie really have a deep connection!
"Thank you, Sister Zhi Huo. I will definitely transfer one piece to Carbink," Bai Feng said gratefully.
After explaining things to Milotic and Mismagius, Bai Feng decided to return to Couriway Town immediately. Before leaving, he said to Milotic and Mismagius:
"If either of you needs to find me, just give me a Phone call. Sister Zhi Huo has my Contact Information, you can just ask her for it."
Mismagius nodded absentmindedly, while Milotic said very impolitely, "Don't worry, I'll resolve Zhi Huo's matter as soon as possible, then I'll contact you, and you can send me back to the Seaside. I don't want to see that guy for another day!"
Bai Feng shook his head helplessly, then turned and left.
Bai Feng arrived Home under the cover of night. As soon as he entered the House Door, he saw Fuyu sitting at the table in the Living Room, engrossed in work.
Hearing the movement, Fuyu turned his head and saw the travel-worn Bai Feng. He exclaimed in surprise, "Bai Feng, you're back!"
Saying this, he quickly ran to Bai Feng's side and carefully examined Bai Feng to see if he had returned with any injuries.
In the early stages of his trip, Bai Feng would occasionally call Fuyu to report that he was safe. Later on, as he got further and further away from Humans, the Signal started becoming poor, and calls became a luxury.
"Why didn't you say you were coming back earlier? Have you had Dinner yet?" Fuyu asked with a concerned look.
"It's already so late, I was afraid you might have already gone to bed," Bai Feng said with a chuckle. "I rushed back Home and haven't eaten yet!"
Fuyu took his Backpack from Bai Feng's hand. "It's not late at all, I won't be sleeping for a while yet!"
Bai Feng said disapprovingly, "Were you working late every day while I was away? Be careful, I'll report you to Dean Meili!"
Fuyu quickly waved his hand. "Please don't! If the Dean finds out, she'll confiscate my Computer." Nowadays, Fuyu couldn't work without his Computer; it was practically his girlfriend.
Just then, Buneary heard the movement and came out. It leaned against the door frame, rubbing its eyes, and it took a while for it to realize that Bai Feng was back.
"Miru~ Miru~" Bai Feng!
It quickly ran to Bai Feng's side and hugged Bai Feng's calf tightly.
Fuyu said with a smile, "Buneary, Bai Feng hasn't had Dinner yet. Go make him something."
"Miru~ Miru~" Okay! Bai Feng, wait a moment, it'll be ready soon!
After speaking, Buneary zipped into the Kitchen.
"Buneary, just make something simple, don't go to too much trouble," Bai Feng called out towards the Kitchen. Actually, he had quite missed Buneary's Craftsmanship during this time.
While Buneary was cooking, Fuyu asked Bai Feng about the Situation of his trip. After they chatted for a while, Buneary brought over a large bowl of noodles.
Bai Feng was indeed quite hungry. He picked up the noodles and started eating them quickly. Halfway through, he saw Buneary watching him without moving, so he asked in confusion:
"Buneary, are you hungry too? Why don't you have some?"
"Miru~ Miru~" I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry.
Buneary said hesitantly, its two small hands fidgeting, looking very awkward.
"Pfft~"
At this moment, Fuyu couldn't help but laugh. Bai Feng's brain suddenly felt like it had been struck by something: So that's it!
Then Bai Feng took out all the Pokeballs on his person and released the Pokémon outside.
The Instant Heliolisk came out, Buneary dashed over. The two Pokémon held hands and intimately returned to the Room.
Bai Feng: (_|||)
"You really can't read the room," Fuyu teased Bai Feng.
Bai Feng was expressionless: Don't talk to me, I just want to be alone right now.
Among the Pokémon, Kricketune, Chatot, and Swablu were visiting here for the first time, so Primarina volunteered to introduce them to the New Home.
Since they were all part of the same Band, Primarina arranged for the three of them to stay next door to itself. Bai Ye had no objections and let Primarina make the arrangements.
Bai Feng had traveled a long way and felt very tired after eating the noodles, so he washed up and went straight to bed, telling Fuyu to also go to bed quickly and not stay up late.
The next day after Bai Feng woke up, he saw many Pokémon gathered in the Yard. It turned out that everyone knew Bai Feng was back, so they had come over to see him by coincidence.
Bai Feng also finally saw Hatterene. Last night, because Hatterene was already resting, he hadn't disturbed it. Looking at it now, its Situation seemed to be quite good.
After the Pokémon had left, Bai Feng gave the remaining Sacred Diamond Fragment to Hatterene. Bai Feng had given the other piece to Carbink yesterday.
Seeing that Bai Feng had truly obtained the Item from Zhi Huo for itself, Hatterene was very moved and almost cried.
It gently stroked the Sacred Diamond Fragment, feeling the Fairy-type Energy transmitted from within. It felt a warmth in its heart and vowed to repay Bai Feng well in the future.
Now that it had the Sacred Diamond Fragment, there was no need to worry about Hatterene's condition. As Time passed, its illness would slowly get better.
After eating Breakfast, Bai Feng started working in the Orchard with the Pokémon. Having been away from Home for a while, he needed to quickly clear the Energy channels for the Berries.
Although Bai Feng could now multitask, he was still quite tired after a busy morning. However, looking at the Fruit Trees on the Mountain Top that were blooming again, Bai Feng smiled with a sense of accomplishment.
After a tiring morning, Bai Feng planned to go Home, eat a meal, rest, and then continue in the Afternoon.
When he walked through the House Door, he saw Primarina, Kricketune, Chatot, and Swablu gathered around Bai Ye, whispering about something.
"What are you guys huddled together for?" Bai Feng walked over and asked.
Perhaps they were chatting too intensely, as Bai Feng's sudden voice startled them, making them tremble all over.
"Sirai~ Sirai~" Bai Feng, why do you walk so quietly? You scared me!
Primarina said, patting its chest.
Bai Feng laughed, "Could it be that you did something wrong?"
"Sirai~" Hmph, no way.
Primarina said this with a bit of a lack of confidence.
As soon as Bai Ye saw Bai Feng appear, he immediately started complaining, accusing Primarina and the others of snatching the Computer he used for watching shows early in the morning.
Hearing this, Bai Feng looked at Primarina. Primarina had a look of Grievance, indicating that it also wanted a Computer or a Phone.
"What, are you obsessed with watching shows too?" Bai Feng was puzzled.
Primarina shook its head, snatched the Computer back from Bai Ye's hand, and then opened it to show Bai Feng.
Bai Feng took a look and was shocked. Primarina and the others had actually registered an account on a Live Streaming Platform and planned to live stream their performances on this platform in the future.
The key was that they had registered using Bai Feng's Identity Information. No wonder Primarina had looked sheepish just now.
Bai Feng asked, stunned, "Are you serious?"
Primarina, Kricketune, Chatot, and Swablu all nodded together.
Swablu was especially enthusiastic. What was its purpose in leaving Home? Wasn't it to come outside and pursue its Dream? Now, what method could be more direct or convenient than performing on a Live Streaming Platform?
Swablu had never known that the Human World had such amazing Stuff before. After Primarina's introduction, it was now deeply fascinated by this live streaming method.
According to Primarina, as long as their Reputation was big enough, their performances could be seen by Humans and Pokémon all over the world.
Simply Splendid!
Bai Feng looked at the few Pokémon envisioning the future and couldn't help but Remind them, "Performing on a Live Streaming Platform isn't that simple. Whether you can make a name for yourselves also depends on luck."
Primarina didn't believe in giving up easily and firmly believed that their Band would definitely become popular. To prove this point, it even specifically found a relatively popular streamer on the platform to show Bai Feng, saying that the streamer's skill wasn't even half of theirs.
Bai Feng watched the other party's Video. In terms of performance level, they were indeed not as good as Primarina and the others, but they knew how to entertain! In this day and age, just having talent isn't enough; you also need to know how to entertain.
However, Primarina and the others wouldn't believe Bai Feng's words. They insisted that Bai Feng must buy them a set of Live Streaming Equipment, as they were going to debut as internet celebrities soon!
Bai Feng couldn't refuse the few Pokémon, so after finishing his work in the Afternoon, he took them to the West District to buy Live Streaming Equipment.
Primarina was truly confident. It felt that its Band would definitely become popular, so it didn't want ordinary Live Streaming Equipment. If they were going to buy, they had to buy the one with the best Performance.
It seemed they wouldn't give up until they reached a desperate situation. Bai Feng bought according to its requirements anyway; he wasn't short on this little bit of Money. He wanted to see how far these guys could go.
In the end, he spent quite a bit of Money and finally bought all the equipment Primarina needed. Even Kricketune and Chatot felt embarrassed.
These two Pokémon had both followed Humans before and knew the usual spending habits of ordinary people. Seeing Primarina spend so much Money so lavishly today, they both felt extremely ashamed for a moment.
After all, they were also members of the Band, and they had participated when pleading with Bai Feng to buy the equipment.
Bai Feng didn't mind how much Money was spent. Instead, he encouraged them, saying, "Since the Money has already been spent, you must work hard! If you really become big stars, maybe you'll earn much more than me in the future. This little bit of Money for buying equipment is just a drop in the bucket."
Bai Feng's words successfully ignited the fighting spirit of the few Pokémon. They all resolved to become the most famous Pokémon Band.
Bai Feng continued, "If you become big stars, maybe you can even promote my Orchard. At that time, my Orchard will completely rely on you!"
With this "big picture" Bai Feng drew, Primarina's nose curled up proudly.
It even started fantasizing: Bai Feng holding it, sitting on a Chair inlaid with Gems, while Kricketune, Chatot, and Swablu next to them were scattering Cash outside in handfuls, and all the other Pokémon in the Orchard were looking at it with faces full of admiration.
That scene... tsk tsk... just thinking about it was incredibly beautiful.
"Primarina, Primarina!" Seeing Primarina raising its head with a silly grin, Bai Feng pushed it and said, "We've bought the Stuff, it's time to go Home!"
Bai Feng called out several times before Primarina snapped back from its fantasy. On the way Home, it kept grinning foolishly, making Bai Feng almost think it had gone crazy.
