Chapter 35 - Chapter 35: Fishing

(Damn it, Streamer, you're shameless! Openly taking the back door! How shameful!)

(Can't afford to lose, huh! Having a good best friend is such a big deal, huh!)

(I advise you to be kind, Streamer. Don't force me to envy you.)

"Sigh, what can I do? Who told me to have such a good best friend!"

Lin Siyu was overjoyed, taking big strides like a happy little deer, while constantly tossing the Poké Ball in her hand back and forth.

Huh? You guys dare to mock me?

Don't make me laugh, I have Sister Fei Xiao looking out for me!

See that? I have a Poké Ball, do you guys have one?

"Hahaha!" Looking at the screen full of bullet comments, Lin Siyu laughed until she was doubled over.

Fei Xiao and Meng Xi both gave their usual helpless smiles. With such a live wire around, at least they didn't have to worry about being too bored.

...

They had been walking for about half an hour.

Lin Siyu had been a Streamer after all, so whenever she got bored, she would interact with the people in the stream.

But it had already been half an hour, why hadn't they encountered any Pokémon yet?

"Sister Fei Xiao, could it be that there aren't any Pokémon here?"

"That shouldn't be the case. When I came to this city, I remember there were quite a few Pokémon."

Fei Xiao did indeed remember seeing quite a few Pokémon on the roadside before arriving in this city.

Could they really be that unlucky? They hadn't encountered any for so long.

"How about you try tripping a couple more times? Maybe then you'll encounter some Pokémon."

"Ah! You're the worst! Can you stop mentioning what just happened?"

Lin Siyu's good mood, which she had finally managed to build up, became miserable again.

After all, now that she had a Poké Ball, to be suddenly told she wouldn't encounter any Pokémon?

Isn't this just messing with me? You can't bully people like this, right?

Fei Xiao smiled casually, "This is a last resort, isn't it? After all, this trip is also to see if we can help you capture a Pokémon too."

Fei Xiao wasn't in a rush. Whether they could encounter Pokémon was a matter of probability, and if their luck was bad, there was nothing to be done.

Lin Siyu's pace quickened involuntarily.

Unsurprisingly, she almost fell flat on her face again.

"Are you okay? Can you watch where you're going? I'm wearing high heels and I walk steadier than you." Fei Xiao complained, between laughter and tears.

"Oh, there's too much vegetation in the woods, I just didn't notice. Huh? Where's my Poké Ball?"

After steadying herself, Lin Siyu realized with a start that the Poké Ball she had been holding was gone, and she hurriedly looked around for it.

It turned out that the Poké Ball in her hand had also been sent flying by the momentum and was currently rolling along the ground.

"Hey, wait for me!" The Little Loli ran after the Poké Ball.

Fei Xiao and Meng Xi had no choice but to quickly follow.

"Finally caught it! Can't lose this only chance!"

Lin Siyu quickly retrieved the Poké Ball and then looked up.

She discovered that there seemed to be a lake not far away down the slope ahead.

"Hey! Sister Fei Xiao, Little Meng, shall we go over there and take a look?"

Lin Siyu called out happily to the two who had followed, waving her hand to indicate she wanted to go down and take a look.

Fei Xiao couldn't help but exclaim, didn't the luck just arrive?

"Perfect, then let's go check out that lake!"

Going down the slope here was quite simple, as long as one was careful not to trip.

Hmm, Fei Xiao definitely didn't mean to imply anyone in particular, she was just very concerned about her best friend's safety.

Once they reached the open ground, their view suddenly widened, and they could even smell the faint, fresh fragrance drifting from the lake surface.

"Then we can just take a break here."

Fletchinder and Meloetta flew up to a high tree branch together, happily admiring the charming scenery around them.

Lin Siyu and Meng Xi quickly kicked off their shoes, "whoosh," and dashed into a shallow pool of water, playing happily.

For the past few months, because of the monster incidents, although there wasn't a city lockdown or anything, everyone was very panicky, and few people dared to travel far.

Now they finally had a chance to properly relax!

Fei Xiao watched the two playing in the water, not joining in, but instead found a large rock by the lake and sat down on it.

She crossed her fair legs, enjoying the tranquility of nature and the breeze to the fullest, a smile blooming on her face involuntarily.

Oh, right!

Fei Xiao hadn't forgotten to protect the privacy of those two by the lake, avoiding giving the audience any "sweet treats," and quietly had the drone shift the camera angle.

However, what Fei Xiao didn't expect was that the two in the lake, seeing the footage of Fei Xiao, couldn't help but exclaim internally that this was simply a fairy descending to earth!

A perfect figure, dashing attire, gray-white long hair and cloak dancing in the wind, with warm sunlight spilling over Fei Xiao's stunningly beautiful face.

They even secretly had the camera get a close-up of Fei Xiao's profile!

(Damn, why won't Sister Fei Xiao let us see? This is heartbreaking, she's even guarding against the bros!)

(I want to see the young lady playing in the water!)

(Sigh, wait, the Streamer is actually decent!)

(Ah, I feel my legs going a bit weak, what should I do? Sister Fei Xiao is just too beautiful.)

(These legs... they're so long... ah no, so fair...)

(Slurp slurp~ These legs are longer than my life!)

...

"Sister Fei Xiao, this isn't fair. Why don't you hit Little Meng?"

"...Would you believe me if I said it was a conditioned reflex?"

...

Pfft!

"Damn it, if I can't beat Sister Fei Xiao, don't think you're getting off easy either!"

After saying that, the Little Loli leaped up and pounced on her instantly.

Then the two of them lost their footing and ended up falling into the river together.

...

"Sister Fei Xiao, why didn't you pull us up!"

Lin Siyu said discontentedly while changing her clothes.

"Heh, don't think I didn't notice, you actually wanted to pull me into the water." Fei Xiao sneered.

"Uh... you noticed?" Lin Siyu gave an awkward smile, raising her hands above her head in fear that Fei Xiao might give her another hit.

Fei Xiao didn't reply, taking new clothes out of her bag for Meng Xi to change into, then taking out a hanger to hang the wet clothes aside to dry.

Seeing that both of them had changed their clothes, the screen returned to them again.

"Let's continue popularizing Pokémon next!"

"Hmm? Are there Pokémon here?"

Lin Siyu looked left and right, but just couldn't see any sign of Pokémon.

Fei Xiao curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a mysterious smile. She reached into her bag and easily pulled out three fishing rods.

"Do you know how to fish? How about we try fishing for Pokémon!"

She hadn't even fished in her past life; she had to give fishing for Pokémon a good try this time.

Lin Siyu exclaimed, "Oh, Pokémon can be fished?"

Meng Xi laughed, "Feels pretty interesting."

Fei Xiao explained, "This lake is clear and big; there must be quite a few Water-type Pokémon in the water."

The three of them each took a fishing rod, sat down by the lake, and started fishing for Pokémon.

As for bait? The system had it for just a few dozen points, not expensive at all.

Meloetta and Fletchinder were also curiously peeking over.

(Ah, this is too much, you don't show the bros when you have good stuff.)

(No way, Pokémon can be fished! This is the gospel for anglers!)

(Oh, has the era of us anglers finally arrived!)

(Is no one noticing how she pulled fishing rods out of such a small bag?)

(Hey, Sister Fei Xiao, don't think we won't notice your four-dimensional treasure bag just because you don't say anything. Hurry up and confess.)
