Fei Xiao returned, muttering curses.
Huh? Fei Xiao stared at Meng Xi before her; although she looked no different than usual, she seemed a bit unhappy.
Feeling uncomfortable under the direct gaze, Meng Xi hurriedly changed the subject.
"Who called? Why are you angry?"
"Oh, it was those two old men from yesterday. They said they seem to have discovered something."
"Worried about potential accidents later, they came to ask for my help in advance."
Fei Xiao grabbed her messy hair, looking impatient, though helping out wasn't a problem.
But this familiar feeling... why did the image of a certain gray-haired person suddenly pop into her mind?
She couldn't help but sigh; indeed, it was the fate of a wage slave.
"Is there something serious that requires your help?"
Lin Siyu was a bit confused; what kind of matter required Sister Fei Xiao to step in?
"They weren't actually sure at first, but now they've come to discuss it with me."
"However, their gut feeling was right."
Fei Xiao explained while taking out her phone and tapping on the received images.
Lin Siyu and Meng Xi curiously leaned in to take a look.
A total of two photos were sent.
The first one showed a sky covered in dark clouds, with several fleeting flashes of lightning remaining in the clouds, as if reflecting that a rainstorm was imminent; the overall atmosphere was very oppressive.
However, a dark shadow could barely be made out within the dense clouds, appearing to be... a bird.
But it was impossible to see clearly; not only was it almost entirely covered by the dark clouds, but the whole photo was also quite blurry.
"This is also a Pokémon, right? But we can't see what it actually looks like?"
Meng Xi could roughly guess that it was a Pokémon, but there really wasn't anything else special about it.
"Yeah, you really can't tell much from the first one. I suspect that the powerful electrical current affected the electronic equipment."
"Take a look at the second one; that's where the previous conclusion came from."
Fei Xiao swiped her little hand, and the second photo appeared before the three of them.
This one was different from the last; the overall image was clearer and brighter.
The scene in the photo was a world of ice and snow, with heavy snow seemingly wanting to bury everything in sight with its whiteness.
And this time, a blue bird Pokémon could be clearly seen at the edge of the picture.
The Pokémon had blue feathers all over its body, a crest made of three dark blue diamond-shaped feathers on its head, and red eyes.
Its beak was short and gray, the same color as its long, thin legs.
It had a long, banner-like Tail that was longer than its body and the same color as its crest; the posture of it flying with its long Tail trailing behind was very beautiful.
Unlike the previous one, this one allowed them to identify the specific identity of this Pokémon.
Meng Xi subconsciously took out her Pokédex, only to find that it couldn't scan the picture.
"Can it only scan real objects? Siyu, do you have that paper Pokédex with you?"
Fei Xiao was about to tell them how to use the Pokédex to search for information on their own.
Lin Siyu had already taken the initiative.
"Oh! Good thing I brought it with me just in case!"
Saying this, Lin Siyu reached out to grab it.
And at this glance, Fei Xiao and Meng Xi were both left dumbfounded.
Because at this moment, Lin Siyu's little hand was slowly reaching directly into the dark abyss.
After a brief search, Lin Siyu quickly withdrew her hand from the abyss, and there was now a small booklet in her otherwise empty little hand.
"Found it... Huh, what's wrong with you two?"
Lin Siyu saw the two of them staring fixedly at her abyss and was momentarily at a loss.
"What's wrong? I was just thinking that in case this pokédex could still be used, I'd keep it, that's all?"
Fei Xiao:???
Meng Xi:???
Is that what we care about?
A Little Loli doing this... it felt a bit out of place.
Lin Siyu realized this time that their gazes seemed to be...
"Oh~ I realized by chance before that it could fit, and it's a waste to leave the space empty! So it's just right to use it now!"
Lin Siyu answered very naturally.
Fine, your logic is superior, you're right.
Fei Xiao heard this, thought about it carefully, and looked down.
Hmm, she couldn't see her toes, so maybe she could do it too? No, her original outfit seemed to have already sealed the entrance to the abyss!
Regarding this, Fei Xiao gave Lin Siyu a thumbs up.
As for Meng Xi, she looked down.
Meng Xi:...
Meng Xi bit her lip, looking speechless.
Nothing at all!
Hmph! A useless thing that looks good but is impractical; she didn't care for it anyway.
Wait a second? Why do we care if we can store things?
...
"Ahem, alright. I originally wanted to remind you of the search method for this pokédex, but since Siyu has already taken it out, let's just flip through it."
After sensing an inexplicable malice, Lin Siyu ignored it.
A few minutes later.
"Found it! Let me see..."
"Its name is Articuno, a large bird Pokémon with beautiful blue feathers. It is said that its beautiful, transparent blue feathers are made of ice."
"Articuno is a legendary bird Pokémon that can freely control ice. It is said to inhabit snow-capped mountains of permafrost, flying over vast snowy mountains with its long Tail trailing behind."
"It can freeze the moisture in the winter air, flying through the sky while causing snowflakes to fall and creating a Blizzard."
"Because it can cool the air just by flapping its wings, it is said that it will snow wherever Articuno flies. When you are about to freeze to death in the snowy mountains, it will appear before you."
Lin Siyu quickly finished reading all the information.
Meng Xi and Lin Siyu were surprised for a moment.
Lin Siyu turned her head stiffly and asked.
"So... this is just a legendary Pokémon? A Divine Beast!"
Fei Xiao nodded indifferently at this.
"Oh my god! This... this is the second time seeing a wild legendary Pokémon!"
The Little Loli immediately became excited, weighing in her heart whether she could capture a Divine Beast.
She got the answer after only a few seconds of thought!
Completely... impossible.
"Then, Sister Fei Xiao, do you have a guess about the identity of the first Pokémon?"
Meng Xi remembered that the first one also seemed to be a bird.
Fei Xiao nodded, then took the pokédex from Meng Xi and began to operate it.
"Hmm, the second Pokémon is a legendary Pokémon known as one of The Legendary Birds."
"This one is Articuno, known as the God of Ice."
"And the second one, if I'm not mistaken, should be Zapdos, who also bears the title of God of Thunder among The Legendary Birds."
As she finished speaking, Fei Xiao displayed the information about Zapdos.
"Zapdos is a legendary bird Pokémon that can manipulate lightning at will."
"It is said that its nest is located in dark thunderclouds, and its figure can be seen when the thunderclouds split in two."
"It makes a crackling sound when flying; flapping its wings causes thunder to fall, and flapping its dazzling wings can generate intense lightning."
"It is said that as soon as it rubs its wings together, a huge lightning bolt will immediately fall from the clouds. When the sky is dark and lightning is constant, this legendary Pokémon will appear. If struck by lightning, power will surge within its body."
