Little Fire Horse rested for a while. The medicine also began to take effect. It gradually recovered its strength and stood up. Hoodlum reached out to touch its back, but the flames on its back suddenly burned Hoodlum's hand. Fortunately, he dodged quickly and wasn't injured. The little fire horse rubbed Hoodlum's face with a happy expression. It seemed that it was quite concerned about Hoodlum's attack and took revenge.
"What a mischievous fellow." Hoodlum laughed. He didn't care about the attack. Pokémon was cuter with its personality.
He touched the back of the little fire horse again. This time, it was fine. The flames on its back didn't burn Hoodlum. Hoodlum then rode on the back of the little fire horse.
It was rare to tame such a magical creature that could run. How could he not go for a ride? He had heard about how great riding was, but he didn't expect to have the chance to ride it once. Hoodlum laughed secretly. He was a little too pleased with himself. He didn't expect that he didn't know how to ride a horse, and the little fire horse didn't have a rein. The result was obvious.
Mi packed her luggage and waited for Hoodlum to return. However, she still couldn't see him even after dinner time. She suddenly remembered that the little fire horse was a magical treasure of the fire element. Based on her previous experience, Hoodlum was probably in trouble now!
It was already past eight o'clock, and the Pokémon dormitory would close in an hour. Amy waited in front of the Pokémon center. The shadow of a big bird fell from the sky. It was Biggie. Unable to wait any longer, Amy sent Biggie out to look for Ah Fei, but he didn't bring back any news.
She regretted not going out with Hoodlum. Otherwise, they could have handled everything together.
"Is he not back yet?" Qiao Yi came to Amy's back and asked with concern.
Mi nodded.
"Don't worry. If he's really a good trainer like you said, he'll be fine.”Joey looked into the distance and said to Amy,""Wait in the Pokémon Center. I'll make you something to drink.”
"Thank you, Miss Joey."”
On the other side, Hoodlum's eyes gradually opened when he felt the warmth on his face. The cute Cher squatted on the ground and looked at Hoodlum. This scene was similar to when they had first met a few months ago, except that there was a worried Little Fire Horse beside him.
Was he unlucky or lucky this time? Just a few minutes ago, when he started riding the little fire horse, he realized that riding a horse was not as simple as he thought. When he increased his speed, he grabbed the little fire horse's brown fur in panic. This frightened the little fire horse. It ran into the forest in panic and happened to break into the territory of the wild big armor. The big armor was frightened and naturally attacked Hoodlum and the little fire horse. He was lucky that he didn't suffer any serious injuries even after rolling down the hill with Cher and the little fire horse.
Hoodlum rubbed his head. Although there were a few cuts on his body, he was fine as long as he wasn't seriously injured. He also checked on Cher and Fire Pony's injuries. Both of them were fine. Hoodlum would definitely die of guilt if the two Pokémon were seriously injured because of this.
"We can only leave from here first. If we go back late, Xiao Mi will be worried!”Hoodlum put Shirley back on his shoulder, followed by the little fire horse, and began to walk in the direction of Light Red City.
Ah Fei didn't go far into the forest, so he knew the direction. Just as he was about to reach the exit, there was a commotion at the entrance of the forest. A few people walked into the forest. Ah Fei's eyes were sharp, and he quickly pulled the little fire horse to hide.
Hoodlum wanted to avoid these people because of their uniforms. These people in black uniforms had a red R on them. The only people in the world who wore such uniforms were the Rockets.
"Are you sure it's this forest?" A man in the middle asked. He looked like a member of the Rockets.
"Yes, my lord. Our people saw it fly into the forest and never came out again. It's just that the forest is relatively large and it's difficult to find its exact location.”A member at the side immediately replied.
"How can I be afraid of trouble? No matter what, I have to find it! That's the research material of our Rocket Team. For our ultimate goal, we must capture it at all costs!”The officer who was addressed as Sir said seriously.
"Yes!" All the players on the side responded in unison and ran into the forest.
Hoodlum walked out from behind a tree after the Rocket Team's officers left. He felt like he had heard some incredible news. Hoodlum laughed to himself. He put away his Fire Horse and quietly followed behind Shirley.
There were no roads in the forest, so Hoodlum didn't dare to get too close to them. He lost them, but he wasn't worried. These people were looking for things like headless flies anyway. Hoodlum might be able to find them before the Rockets.
Hoodlum was walking alone in the forest without anything to tell the time, so he couldn't sense the passage of time. However, the sky quickly darkened, and the forest looked very gloomy. Hoodlum could only see a little by the moonlight. If this continued, he would soon get lost in the forest and would have to stay here at night.
Just as he was about to go back, Cher, who was on his shoulder, suddenly reacted. She stared at the forest with a vigilant expression.
What was it? Ah Fei thought. Deep in the forest, Hoodlum felt a chill. Then, he saw a pair of red eyes and a huge figure. His brain started to think quickly. Countless pieces of Pokémon information swirled in his mind, but he couldn't connect them to the Pokémon in front of him.
The red-eyed shadow was disturbed, and it glared at Hoodlum angrily. Then, it curiously looked at Shirley on Hoodlum's shoulder, and with a swoosh, it opened its wings. The huge flapping caused a loud sound in the quiet night.
The Rocket Team that was searching around heard the sound and shouted for their companions to rush over. Hoodlum and the black shadow sensed movement around them and quickly flew up. They glared at Hoodlum and Cher before flying south of the forest. The sound of the rockets disappeared into the forest.
Hoodlum finally came back to his senses. At first, the shadow was hiding in the forest and it was too dark to see it clearly. However, Hoodlum remembered the shadow's appearance when it flew up. It had to be him. Hoodlum was like a child who had discovered a treasure. He was extremely excited.
"Come out, Big Mouth!" Hoodlum threw the Bigmouth Bird's precious ball and jumped onto the Bigmouth Bird's back with Cher." Let's go back to Light Red City!"”
The Big-mouthed Sparrow flapped its wings and flew high into the sky, heading north of the forest. Hoodlum looked back at the place where the black shadow disappeared. They would definitely meet again, he thought to himself.
On the side of the Rocket Team, the officer calmly commanded his men to continue chasing after the prey. He subconsciously looked back at the sky. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything, but he felt that something was there.
It didn't take long for the Bigmouth Bird to fly back to Light Red City. Hoodlum had the Bigmouth Bird land at the Pokémon Center and put it back into the treasure ball.
It was almost nine o'clock. Xiao Mi heard a noise coming from outside the Pokémon Center and ran out. Wasn't it Ah Fei who had called back the Bigmouth Bird at the door?
"Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?”Xiao Mi hurriedly went forward and asked.
"There was an accident and I came back late. I'm really sorry for making you worry.”Hoodlum said. If it weren't for what happened later, he would have come back earlier.
"You've suffered a lot of injuries. Go inside first. I'll help you bandage it.”Xiao Mi brought Hoodlum into the Pokémon Center and found a place to sit down. She borrowed the medicine box from Joey and began to clean Hoodlum's wounds.
"Speaking of which, you really don't get along with the fire-type Pokémon. What kind of accident did you encounter this time?”Xiao Mi asked as she treated him.
Hoodlum smiled and told Amy about his experience that night. This topic caught Amy's attention.
"I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. What do you think that Pokémon is?”she asked.
"If I'm not wrong, it must be that one!”Hoodlum took out his Pokémon illustrated book and found the Pokémon he was talking about. He placed the illustrated book in front of Amy.
"Is it really it? Was the Rockets chasing it now?”Xiao Mi was puzzled.
"Yes, I know a little about the Rockets. They must be trying to use it for experiments. I have a feeling that we will see them again.”Hoodlum said with certainty.
"I'm also a little concerned. This Pokémon is flying south, in the same direction as our destination.”Amy said as she put away the medicine box. Ah Fei's bruises had been treated.
"En, we'll set off tomorrow. Hopefully, we can find it before the Rockets!”Hoodlum checked the bandaged area. Xiao Mi's medical skills were not bad. This small injury did not affect him from continuing his journey.
"Have your injuries been treated?" Jouyi walked over and asked.
"Yes, I've already taken care of it. Thank you.”Amy handed the medicine box to Joey.
"Miss Jouyi, do you know where we go from here to the south?”Hoodlum asked.
"I remember that there is a nature reserve south of here. After the reserve, there is a wild wilderness area managed by Mr. Caesar. Many trainers go there to tame Pokémon.”Joey replied," But you have to be careful. The wilderness area is a nature reserve that forbids the taming of Pokémon. The police officer there, Miss Junsha, is very powerful."”
It must have gone there. Hoodlum thought about it and decided to go there first. The Rocket Team had mobilized a lot of people to capture it. Perhaps they could sneak into the Rocket Team and find out where it was.
Hoodlum and Amy bid farewell to Joey and returned to the dormitory they had rested in yesterday. Hoodlum was exhausted today and fell asleep as soon as he lay on the bed. There were still many things to do.
