Chapter 259 I Like Miss Mary
Modern day, Sinnoh area, Binhai City, March 7th, night.
A silver moon hangs high in the sky, and its reflection on the sea level rises and falls with the tide.
Binhai City is brightly lit and bustling. Even though it is late at night, it is difficult to be quiet. There are countless people living a colorful nightlife in this metropolis, which is one of the best in the Sinnoh area. Noisy, bustling and radiant, but with a thick smoke.
In a wealthy area, a large seaside villa, only a few rooms shine through the windows with warm yellow lights.
In a dark room, Cattleya was wearing a thin nightgown, her blond hair was spread on the bed, her delicate eyebrows were closed, and her beautiful face was in the moonlight shining through the window, making people think of it involuntarily. To the fairy tale Sleeping Beauty.
Suddenly, the windows were closed tightly, but the curtains were raised inexplicably, like a breeze blowing.
Cattleya's eyelashes, which were as thin as cicada's wings, swayed slightly, and immediately opened her almond eyes. The blue eyes were full of deep fatigue and a little urgency.
She pursed her soft cherry lips, but directly lifted the quilt, turned over and got out of bed, but fell to the ground weakly, making a soft 'bang'.
Cattleya supported the luxurious carpet with both hands, propped herself up slightly, and couldn't help panting, her soft blond hair hung down, covering her side face.
She, who was always strong and reliable, actually looked so weak at this moment...
Although there was a part of the reason, it wasn't because she handed herself over to Xu Qiansu... Cattleya's vast spiritual power was completely exhausted at this moment.
Cattleya has only experienced this feeling twice in her life.
Once, it was her battle with Kyurem.
Once, she traveled across time and space to Xicui...
Now, it's the third time.
As a person with superpowers, mental power is something more familiar than hands and feet, and it doesn't exist now. For Cattleya, she can't adapt to it at all, even standing up is somewhat reluctant.
But she still slowly got up from the carpet, looked around, moved her steps, and came to her dressing table, where... there were six elf balls.
Cattleya's Pokémon.
She propped herself up with one hand on the tabletop, picked up one of them with the other, and pressed the button, the blue light flashed, and a Pokémon that looked like a human girl in a gothic black dress appeared in front of her eyes.
Miss Goth, super-powered Pokémon, Cattleya's trump card.
"Chirp..." Miss Goth opened her eyes, her face changed instantly when she saw Cattleya, and she quickly helped her up... Miss Goth had never seen her trainer look so weak.
Cattleya leaned on Miss Goth's arms and panted lightly. It seemed that walking to the dressing table and picking up the Poké Ball had already consumed a lot of her strength.
"Clothes..." She pursed her lips and said in a low voice.
Miss Goth was slightly startled, and with a wave of her small hand, a white lady's windbreaker was draped over Cattleya's delicate body, and she immediately buttoned it under the fluctuation of mental power.
"Walk……"
"Chirp?"
When Miss Goth heard this, she almost burst into tears, thinking that you are so weak, where else do you want to go?
But Miss Gold always listened to Cattleya.
The window was wide open, and the evening wind came in. Miss Goth picked up Cattleya, jumped up, and disappeared into the night sky.
"Zhulan and Mary are in the villa?" Miss Goth, holding Cattleya in her arms, passed by under the silver moon, and the evening wind blew Cattleya's soft long golden hair, she asked in a low voice.
Cattleya, who cherishes Zhulan the most, did not notify Zhulan as soon as she returned to modern times. Instead, she asked as if she just remembered it at this moment.
"Miss Zhulan is still in the villa, but who is Mary? Miss Zhulan is the only one in the villa."
Miss Goth's voice sounded from Cattleya's heart.
After hearing this, Cattleya stopped talking. Where did Mary go? What does it have to do with her? Besides, Miss Goethe didn't know Mary, so it was useless to ask.
"Go there." Cattleya nodded slightly and pointed in a direction.
Miss Goth didn't ask any more questions, she just listened to Cattleya's words... She had never seen her trainer look so anxious, so she didn't dare to slack off, lest she might delay something.
...
Back then, Cattleya borrowed Mary's purple-black pendant and came to Xicui with a spiritual body. Now, she just used the same method to let Xu Qiansu come to Xicui with a spiritual body through the platinum pendant. .
There were many difficulties, but Cattleya overcame them all.
If you want to use the platinum pendant, you must first be able to control your own mental power.
And Xu Qiansu is not a superpower, so his mental power is not strong, and it is even more impossible to take the initiative to use his mental power to enter the platinum pendant... But in the past three years, Cattleya visited famous superpowers in order to solve Kyurem. A lot of things.
Among them is a method secretly researched by the regional alliance, which allows superpowers to transfer part of their spiritual power to ordinary people, so that laymen can also use superpowers, but this method has many shortcomings.
For example, the brains of ordinary people simply cannot bear the tyrannical mental power.
For example, even if ordinary people will not be burnt into fools by the tyrannical mental power, they will also experience out-of-control phenomena such as super powers and runaways. Therefore, it takes a long time and systematic training to barely use it.
For example, mental power also has a rejection reaction, once it stays in the body of ordinary people for too long, it will only cause various problems.
This method is actually not feasible at all, but in order to have more superpowers, the alliance has never given up on research for many years, but it has found a solution to the third point... that is, the combination of yin and yang, and the blending of water and milk. Abnormal reaction.
Cattleya asked herself that she would never be able to commit herself to any man in her life, so she couldn't use it, but unfortunately she was a genius, even if she didn't plan to use it or learn it, as long as she knew the principle, she could master it... It was originally given to her to separate the mental power so that she can control it.
Although Cattleya's separation of mental power is essentially for dominance, it is considered experienced.
So she made it.
The third point is that the rejection reaction can be resolved through the combination of yin and yang.
The second point is that Xu Qiansu doesn't need training to master super powers. After all, he just needs to put his mental power into the platinum pendant. Cattleya helped him do this, and Xu Qiansu doesn't need to worry about anything.
As for the first point... Cattleya sealed her spiritual power in Xu Qiansu's sea of consciousness, but the seal is not foolproof, as long as Xu Qiansu realizes that there is Cattleya's spiritual power in her sea of consciousness, the seal will be broken... Xu Qiansu's brain would be burned out by Cattleya's tyrannical mental power.
The spiritual power that has troubled Cattleya for more than ten years can be possessed by ordinary people like Xu Qiansu at will?
Maybe he is the hero of the rainbow chosen by the Phoenix King, and also the envoy of Bird...Xu Qiansu is extraordinary, maybe he can survive?
But Cattleya would never gamble.
So she sealed Xu Qiansu's memory...
Xu Qiansu no longer remembered what Cattleya had done with him, he only remembered that he asked Cattleya for help, and then appeared inside the carriage when his eyes went dark.
In addition, Cattleya also arranged a few points.
For example, the place where the platinum pendant leads is the heaven, but Xu Qiansu himself has no memory of the heaven, because Cattleya uses the power of the purple pendant to intercept him on his way to the heaven and send him directly to Xicui ...This is to prevent Xu Qiansu from contacting Arceus.
In other words, the platinum pendant was just a medium to separate Xu Qiansu's soul from his body. He was actually taking the path of reversing the world.
For example, Xu Qiansu returned to the Xicui area with a spiritual body, exactly the same as Cattleya back then, and could not bring any modern objects.
In other words, Xu Qiansu's clothes, elf ball, backpack, mobile phone, and even his body are all protected by Cattleya. What he can bring is only the things that exist in the Xicui area itself, namely the flute of the gods, the magical slate, platinum Pendant, with Sorolla.
Other than that, Xu Qiansu had nothing, even the clothes, which were transformed by Cattleya's mental power in advance.
At the same time, in order to prevent Xu Qiansu from becoming suspicious and discovering something that caused his spiritual power to break through the seal, Cattleya also faked his spiritual body as much as possible to look like an ordinary person, so that Xu Qiansu himself did not know that he was a spiritual body.
Most importantly, in order to prevent Xu Qiansu from seeking Arceus' help, Cattleya even paved his way back.
Using Cattleya's spiritual power as the bridge, the power of the purple pendant as the medium, and Xu Qiansu's body as the guide, set a deadline of one month. After one month, Xu Qiansu's spiritual body will dissipate in the Xicui area, Under the wrapping of Cattleya's spiritual power, she returned to her present body... In other words, although Xu Qiansu stayed in the Xicui area for a month, when he came back, it was still March 7th...that is, at this moment.
At the same time, in order to ensure that Xu Qiansu would not die in the reversed world, Cattleya allocated 70% of her spiritual power to him...to him forever, and it was impossible to take it back.
Such a huge and vast mental power is enough for Xu Qiansu to live in the Xicui area for more than several years. The reason why he was only allowed to stay for a month is purely because the soul and the body cannot be separated for too long.
Even Cattleya, who has not touched her body for more than half a month, still has many discomforts... One month is already the limit.
Cattleya arranged for Xu Qiansu to return to modern times with her on March 4th, and she also wanted to alleviate Xu Qiansu's side effects.
Thanks to the chaos of time and space in the reverse world, Cattleya can do this.
But it's easy to say, but how difficult it is to implement it, only Cattleya knows that even with the help of the magic slate, Cattleya will completely consume her mental power, and even hurt her roots. If she wants to recover completely, I don't know how long it will take, but it will take a month to be conservative.
A month or so doesn't sound like a long time, but after fighting Kyurem, Cattleya recovered after only a week of recuperation, which shows how much this operation has consumed Cattleya.
What's more, in order to control her super power, Cattleya had already lost half of her spiritual power by reducing the upper limit, and now she gave Xu Qiansu 70% points... As a super power user, her strength is far from what it used to be up.
For Xu Qiansu's sake, Cattleya has done everything she can, without making Xu Qiansu worry too much... She did what she often said.
Xu Qiansu doesn't need to rely on anyone, he only needs to rely on Cattleya.
However, due to the excessive consumption of Cattleya's mental power, some accidents occurred when she returned to modern times... She was supposed to return to modern times on March 4th, but the timeline went wrong, and it came to March 7th. At the same time, Xu Qiansu's body failed to return to the villa with Cattleya's body, but landed in a corner of Binhai City.
Fortunately, Xu Qiansu has always been marked with Cattleya's mark, so it is not difficult to find out the exact location, but today is March 7th... the day Kyurem originally predicted.
The evening breeze blew, and Miss Goth brought Cattleya down to the Central Park in Binhai City.
There are no modern entertainment facilities in the park, so there is no one except for some restless young couples late at night.
Cattleya stepped on the soft grass, her turquoise eyes scanned the surroundings, and then she narrowed her almond eyes slightly, and trotted to a tree, ignoring her white skirt, and knelt down on the grass.
Her soft pink lips opened and closed, panting lightly, just a few trot steps had already made her extremely tired.
She looked down and saw Xu Qiansu in a white robe leaning against the tree trunk, her fair face was peaceful and stable, her backpack was placed by her side, and Xanadu and the others' elf balls were hanging around her waist... she didn't wake up.
Miss Goth looked at Xu Qiansu, wondering who is this male human? Why does his trainer care so much about him?
Cattleya pursed her lips, put her hands on her thighs, and looked at Xu Qiansu without blinking.
Cattleya's golden hair was slightly brushed by the breeze.
"I'm so hungry... If I can eat something, it will help me recover."
After an unknown amount of time, Cattleya suddenly heard a peaceful voice with a slight smile.
Cattleya stood up, then looked down at Xu Qiansu from the height, "Get up."
How about a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart? Just now Cattleya didn't move, she was obviously extremely nervous, but now that Xu Qiansu woke up, she didn't even let him sit.
Xu Qiansu opened her eyes, looked at Cattleya's beautiful face from bottom to top, but didn't say much.
He supported the tree trunk and stood up with a somewhat vain footsteps, but he rolled up his sleeves first and looked at his white forearm.
Cattleya raised her eyebrows slightly, "What? Do you suspect that I failed to protect you and made you suffer?"
Xu Qiansu shook her head and smiled lightly, and put down her sleeves, "Thanks to Miss Cattleya, I was able to say goodbye to Sorolla in time, which must have caused you a lot of trouble...Great kindness, I'm so kind..."
"Shut up." Cattleya waved her hand impatiently, but stretched out her little hand, "I'm tired too...Let's get out of here first."
Xu Qiansu blinked, then took Cattleya's little hand and carried her on her back.
Miss Goth withdrew her hand silently, looking at Cattleya's calm and pretty face, she suddenly felt that she shouldn't be here, she should go back to the poke ball.
"As light as your mental body..." Xu Qiansu grabbed her backpack and hung it in front of her body, then carried Cattleya on her back and walked out of the park.
Cattleya put her hands on Xu Qiansu's shoulders, glanced down at his profile, and wondered if Xu Qiansu had discovered that he was going to the Xicui area in the form of a spirit body...it should have been.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you don't retrieve your memory, and don't realize that most of Cattleya's spiritual power is in your consciousness, the seal will not be broken... But, Xu Qiansu can no longer remember that he and Cattleya are at the back of the world what happened...
Cattleya lowered her eyebrows and remained silent.
Xu Qiansu didn't speak, and walked forward silently.
The night is dark and the silver moon hangs high. Even in an inaccessible park, you can faintly hear the noise of this metropolis at night.
Miss Goth followed behind the two of them step by step... Well, these two seem to be very close, why are they not saying a word now?
Miss Gold thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer, so she had to give up, thinking that she was just a female Pokémon who hadn't experienced heat, and couldn't understand the complicated thoughts of humans.
After walking for a while, I stepped out of the park. On the side of the road next to the park, there was a stall selling Oden. Except for the boss, there were no customers.
That's right, it's late at night, and it's not a bustling commercial street, so there aren't many customers.
But the boss still chooses to open a store here, and he doesn't know why.
Xu Qiansu shook her head lightly, brushed away the distracting thoughts in her mind, smiled lightly, and asked, "Would you like something to eat?"
Cattleya glanced at the vendors. It was a small shop supported by tricycles. There was a half curtain hanging in front of the shop, revealing the seats and warm yellow lights. The sizzling of Kanto soup could be heard even here.
She nodded slightly.
Xu Qiansu walked up, opened the curtain, looked at the rest of the oden, and then looked at the boss, "Three standard set meals."
Miss Goth blinked her eyes, she didn't expect to have her share... She thought the male human didn't notice her at all.
Miss Goth sat down on the chair and turned her head to see that Cattleya was a seat away from her, and Xu Qiansu was sitting between them.
Miss Goth wanted to sit next to her trainer, but there seemed to be no room for her to intervene now, so she looked at her nose, nose and heart, and sat in her original position, silent, but quietly pricked up her ears.
Cattleya supported her pretty face, glanced at Xu Qiansu, but asked, "Have you paid homage to your first love?"
The tone of voice was indistinct, showing a bit of dissatisfaction.
"Traveled with Sorolla for a month." Xu Qiansu couldn't answer directly. He took the cup, washed it with boiling water, put it in front of Cattleya, and smiled slightly, "Thank you again."
"Well——" Cattleya let out a nasal sound that didn't make sense, and then withdrew her gaze, "It doesn't matter if you don't smile. You know that I can read minds, so why continue to use this attitude."
In fact, Cattleya doesn't even have the mental strength to maintain mind reading at this moment, but even if she has, she won't read it at this moment.
Xu Qiansu poured a glass of water for the two of them and Miss Goth, looked down at the swaying water waves, and did not answer.
For a while, the two fell silent again.
"The guest's oden." The boss is a silent middle-aged man. He put the steaming oden in front of everyone, made a slight sound, then withdrew his hand, wiped the cup behind the kitchen counter, and said nothing. Did not say.
The evening wind blew across the street, slightly lifting the curtains of the shop.
"Cattleya, did I help you achieve your goal?" Xu Qiansu looked at the sizzling hot soup in the bowl, was silent for a while, but asked suddenly.
Cattleya was slightly taken aback, raised her hand to take a bamboo stick, inserted the potato into the bowl, but didn't eat it, and asked after a while, "Do you know what I want to do?"
"Maybe I can guess some... Thank you." For some reason, the boss put a glass of beer in front of the two of them. Xu Qiansu picked up the glass and took a sip before turning his head to look at Cattleya. Come to assassinate me, and be killed by a leaf..."
Cattleya lowered her eyes and remained silent.
"Back when you were unconscious, I held your hand and sensed the waveguide in your body all the time, lest something unexpected happen to you... Now that I think about it, you were a spiritual body at that time, so what I perceived was the waveguide of your spiritual power." Xu Qiansu I don't know why I smiled, and continued to explain, "So I am familiar with your spiritual power...and there was your breath on that leaf at that time..."
"You know, but don't tell?"
"Because I believe that no matter what your purpose is, you won't harm me..." Xu Qiansu picked up a piece of radish, but only took a bite, then put it into the bowl, and said in a low voice, "But what happened now? It's troublesome, I have received so much favor from you, even if you want to harm me, I have nothing to say."
Cattleya no longer supported her side face, she stretched out a light white jade finger, and gently stroked the beer glass, feeling a little wet and cold on it.
Has her purpose been accomplished?
Cattleya doesn't know...
Her original purpose was just to control her super power.
But after mastering the super power, he turned to protect Zhulan.
For this reason, she wanted Xu Qiansu to die for Zhulan.
Then... She wanted Xu Qiansu to live again.
In order to fulfill Xu Qiansu's wish, in order for him to return to modern times alive, Cattleya committed herself to him...
Now... Zhulan is alive, and Xu Qiansu is also alive.
Under Cattleya's nearly perfect planning, Kyurem's arrangement seemed to have become a joke.
So now, what is Cattleya's purpose?
There was a little chatter and laughter behind him.
A young man and woman walked in and sat down on a chair... obviously a couple.
However, they didn't overdo anything, and their words and deeds were full of a kind of harmony of "beginning in heat and ending in courtesy".
Cattleya looked away, pursed her cherry lips, and remained silent.
If Xu Qiansu hadn't lost her memory, then Cattleya might be the happiest woman in the world...
But there is no if, if Xu Qiansu regains his memory, then he will die.
"Cattleya."
"Huh?" Cattleya held the beer glass, her little hand clenched slightly.
At this moment, she finally understood what the fate that Kyurem laid down in the first place was.
No matter how she arranges it, no matter how hard she tries, it will happen eventually.
Because all of this is her own choice.
It was because of Zhulan that she made herself fall in love with Xu Qiansu.
It was also because of Xu Qiansu that she sealed his memory.
Everything is her choice.
Xu Qiansu didn't look at her, his fingertips brushed past the hot bowl, the tingling pain seemed to make him let go of some unnecessary emotions in his heart.
After a little silence, he said.
"I like Miss Mary."
Hearing this, Cattleya didn't speak.
She picked up the beer, took a sip, put down the glass, and then leaned on her arms as if feeling tired.
The evening wind blows, lifting the curtain.
Strong and reliable, Cattleya, who can handle everything perfectly, is snuggling up on the table at this moment, her blond hair is blown by the evening wind, her back is slender and weak.
She replied slowly and in a low voice.
"I already knew."
