Chapter 41 It would be impolite not to lose your memory sooner

After greeting everyone, Mingyou fully woke up, coughed lightly, and asked with a smile, "If you want to buy fruit, the price and effects are already marked next to it. If it doesn't work, you can get a refund."

"Then give me this one."

Xiao Zhao pointed to the Kapi fruit and then asked curiously, "By the way, is this a fruit or a tree fruit? This is the first time I've ever seen one shaped like this."

"It's a capipella, which belongs to the apple family."

"Its design really does resemble Snorlax, it's quite cute. And there's even this kind of fruit...that's so expensive!"

Xiao Zhao then noticed the price tag next to it: 99 yuan for one Kapi fruit... Although she could afford it, she really didn't have much money.

Then she glanced at the prices of the apples next to her, especially the sweet apple that sold for 1499. Anyone who didn't know better would think it was pure gold!

"Well... I think it's normal for it to be a bit more expensive, considering that Beishang Township experiences a tourist season, but the price should at least be within an acceptable range, right?"

Xiao Zhao spoke softly, almost implying that he wanted to rip off tourists, but he was being polite and didn't say it outright.

"Well……"

Seeing that the other party was shocked by the price, Mingyou was speechless for a moment. It was already getting late, and she couldn't just pack up and go home empty-handed. She had to at least get a kill. Sure enough...

"Then it's free, you can have it."

"Huh? Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Mingyou handed over the Kabi Fruit and continued, "I don't think I've seen you in town before. You must be a tourist who just arrived today, right? It would be great if you could help me and the other tourists spread the word."

"Hmm... okay then, thank you."

After thanking him, Xiao Zhao took the Kapigo, then gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I feel like I got a bit of a bargain. I'll talk to the students about it later, but you should probably lower the price a bit."

"student?"

"Yes, I'll be helping the community center receive students participating in the summer camp during this time. I've been taken care of by Danyu and the others, so I want to give back."

As she spoke, Xiao Zhao held the Kabi Fruit to the mouth of the little fox in her arms. Only then did Mingyou notice the Zoroa in the other person's arms.

Unlike the usual Zoroa, this fox cub has grayish-white fur, pale orange pupils, and red and white fur on its neck, head, and tail. Moreover, it exudes a terrifying resentful energy from the fur on its head, neck, and tail.

[Zorua (in its green form): A vengeful fox Pokémon. Beneath its cute appearance lies an extremely strong aggression and a deep-seated grudge. However, it can also greatly increase its affection for those who help it or its trainer.]

"Washing Solomon, that's quite a sight."

Mingyou was somewhat surprised to see Zoroya take a bite of the Kabi Fruit and show a very satisfied smile, as if he really liked the taste.

Xiao Zhao gently stroked Zoroa's fur and said with a smile, "Looks like Kabi fruit is quite delicious. This child rarely smiles like this."

"If you like it, come back and buy it again."

"Then you'll have to sell it at a lower price."

"I need to eat too..."

"Ha ha."

Xiao Zhao smiled, seemingly finding Mingyou's helpless expression quite amusing.

Just then, she suddenly noticed a monstrous deer staring at her curiously from behind the other person, and she was taken aback.

"What's wrong?"

Mingyou suddenly noticed the strange atmosphere, and then Xiaozhao came to her senses: "Sorry, it's just... I was quite surprised to see the horned deer."

"You can recognize it at a glance? Even a dodo would have to think for a moment to remember it."

"That's all I remember."

As she said this, a trace of worry flashed across Xiao Zhao's face. She seemed to have something troubling her. She continued, "In February of this year, I collapsed by the river in Emerald Green Town. I don't know how I got here. When I woke up, I had already forgotten many things."

"Amnesia?"

"Yes... I feel like I don't belong here. I only remember my own name and some knowledge about Pokémon and trainers. Other than that, I don't remember anything. My memory is very vague."

Xiao Zhao recounted some of her experiences. In fact, many people in Cuilu Town knew about this. After all, Beishang Township is so small that news spreads quickly, so there was nothing to hide.

After listening to the story, Mingyou felt sympathy for the other person, but also sensed that something was amiss.

"broken……"

Why are there so many people around me with amnesia? Should I pretend to have amnesia too? That way I can fit in better. After all, everyone's like that, it would be impolite if you didn't have amnesia.

amount……

Wait a minute...did I also suffer from amnesia?

"..."

Mingyou fell silent for a while before he smiled and encouraged the other person: "Don't worry, maybe you'll remember someday. Actually, I also lost my memory because of a small accident before, but I didn't expect to regain my memory because of motion sickness."

"what?"

Listening to his story, Xiao Zhao couldn't help but show surprise. Really? It was like listening to a story.

Mingyou smiled, wanting to chat a little longer, but glancing at the time, he realized it was almost 6 p.m., so he had no choice but to say goodbye.

"That's settled then. I need to go home and cook. Remember to help me promote my fruit."

Having said that, he packed up his stall and rode the monstrous antler deer back to the manor. Watching him leave, Xiao Zhao murmured calmly, "He's really... a very strange person. Is his name Mingyou? And that monstrous antler deer... I just feel..."

"What are you doing here!"

At this moment, Danyu, who had changed into her everyday clothes, ran over from the direction of the community center, stopped next to Xiaozhao, put her hands on her hips, and continued, "Get ready to go to my house for dinner. My grandma has already prepared everything and is just waiting for you."

"Huh? Didn't you say I'd cook so she could rest?"

"That's what she thought too, she wanted us to get some rest..."

"Then I'll make some mousse cake as dessert. I happen to have some ingredients left."

"No, please spare my life..."

……

On the way back to the manor, Mingyou was planning her schedule starting tomorrow when she suddenly noticed that the Ghost Horned Deer seemed a little absent-minded. In fact, it had been like this ever since she met Xiaozhao.

"What's wrong?"

"Yo yo..."

"Is Xiao Zhao your trainer?"

"Yo yo..."

The horned deer shook its head. It wasn't sure; it just felt a strange sense of familiarity, and since the other party had amnesia and wouldn't recognize it, it couldn't be sure.

"Um……"

Mingyou fell into deep thought. Considering what Xiaozhao had said before, the possibility was quite high, but the fact that everyone had amnesia made it very difficult to judge.

After pondering for a long time, he came to his senses and said, "Don't worry, she'll be staying in Beishang Township all this time. We'll have plenty of opportunities to confirm!"

"Yo yo!"

"Well, I'll be troubling you these next few days, running back and forth between the two places with me."

"Yo yo~"

On the way back to the manor, Ponpo, who was sleeping on the steps at the entrance, woke up immediately upon hearing the noise and ran to greet them.

"Mmm~"

"Sorry to have kept you waiting?"

"Mmm~"

Ponpon didn't mind, as long as he came back.

Mingyou patted its head and then said, "Starting tomorrow, I'll be setting up a stall in the North City Center every day. Do you want to come with me?"

"Hmm..."

Ponpo lowered its head, still somewhat hesitant. Although it really wanted to go with Mingyou, it was afraid of being seen by the people from Beishang Township.

Just as they were hesitating, Munchlax ran out and said it wanted to go, because it hadn't forgotten the taste of the sticky rice cakes from Kitakami Village!

"Gambit~"

"Well... you're already banned from entering, they'll probably kick you out as soon as they see you."

"Gambit~"

You won't let me in? I have plenty of ways to get in!

The little Snorlax waved its little paws, allowing Mingyou to capture it with a Poké Ball, just like she captured Ponpo, so that it could enter openly.

"It has to be you... Don't you dare steal the food and run away, leaving me to take the blame."

"Gambit~"

"Alright then."

Mingyou did not refuse, and then took out a Poké Ball and successfully captured Munchlax, thus inexplicably obtaining a second Pokémon.

Although given his relationship with Munchlax, capturing it would be a simple matter of a word, he still let the other party bring it up first.

Seeing that Snorlax could set up a stall with Mingyou, Ponpo was indeed very envious. It took out a Ghost Mask from under its cape, stared at it for a while, and seemed to have some ideas of its own...
