Yang Lingfeng released Absol again.
"Absol!"
Watching this scene, it would be a lie to say that everyone around wasn't envious.
Absol itself was quite good-looking, and especially when thinking about being able to just release a Pokémon for battle whenever something happened, it felt incredibly cool!
"It's better to let Absol stay outside for now; after all, its injuries haven't healed yet. Regarding food, I've said this before: if you need Pokéblocks or anything like that in the future, you can come find me."
Fei Xiao offered a few simple reminders as usual.
Yang Lingfeng noted them down one by one and decided to watch the replays of Fei Xiao's streams a few more times later.
"Oh right! It's only been a few days, Sister Fei Xiao, how come you're out of bed? Are you okay?"
Finally getting to the point, Jiao Xiaoyan's original intention today was just to stop by and visit Sister Fei Xiao since she happened to have some free time.
However, she didn't expect Sister Fei Xiao to be out for a morning run so early in the day.
"Seriously! You should be resting properly in your hospital bed!"
Jiao Xiaoyan puffed up her little face, her tone clearly displeased, but her body was very honest as she checked Fei Xiao all over.
Fei Xiao felt very helpless about this. She had specifically come out to move around because she didn't want to lie in a hospital bed all the time; who could have imagined it would be such a coincidence?
She could only smile sheepishly and say.
"I just can't sit still, and besides, I've basically fully recovered."
Jiao Xiaoyan and the others also noticed that she really did look like a normal person at this moment.
If they hadn't seen with their own eyes a few days ago how weak and frail Fei Xiao looked lying in her hospital bed, no one would have believed that a woman whose life had been in critical danger could be so lively and active after just a few days.
At this moment, Fei Xiao was standing there with a helpless expression.
Feeling the little hands wandering over her body becoming increasingly bold, Fei Xiao stepped back calmly.
She then held out a hand to stop Jiao Xiaoyan, who was still trying to reach out.
"Don't worry, don't I know my own body? The injuries won't affect my daily life now; at most, I just need to recover for a few days like a normal person."
Unable to take another step forward, Jiao Xiaoyan had no choice but to give up, though the state of her recovery was almost exactly as she had said.
It was truly incredible; no wonder some people always wanted to dissect Sister Fei Xiao.
"I'll stop chatting now, I'm going for a run."
Fei Xiao was afraid that the other party would keep asking questions, and the surrounding gazes were becoming increasingly stinging. She was not an exhibit in a museum for people to gawk at.
In the blink of an eye, Fei Xiao turned into an afterimage and disappeared from the spot.
Only a gust of wind remained to prove that she had just been there.
Everyone:...
Holy crap! That fast? She was right in front of us a second ago, and the next second she just vanished into thin air?
Everyone only knew that this fox ears girl seemed unusual, but few people knew her true capabilities; this had certainly opened their eyes.
Yang Lingfeng:... Zhou Long:... Jiao Xiaoyan:...
They stared dumbfounded in the direction where Fei Xiao had left.
This is what you call a normal person?
"Achoo!"
As Fei Xiao was running, she suddenly felt an itch in her nose.
"Achoo!!!"
"Sigh, this must be that girl Lin Siyu cursing me. Come to think of it, I've been away for a few days now, and I wonder how their travels are going. Actually, I do miss them a little bit."
Fei Xiao ran to her heart's content on the playground, her gaze gradually drawn to the azure sky.
A smile like a blooming spring flower unconsciously appeared on her face.
"Achoo!!!"
"You didn't actually catch a cold, did you? Why are you sneezing again all of a sudden?"
Meng Xi looked suspiciously at the Little Loli beside her.
Lin Siyu touched her itchy nose, and she immediately understood in her heart.
"It must be Sister Fei Xiao cursing me behind my back!"
No way! After realizing the truth, Lin Siyu felt that the more she thought about it, the more she felt at a loss.
"I hope next time Sister Fei Xiao eats instant noodles, there's no noodle block, and when she wakes up from a nap, her rabbit has kicked the bucket..."
Meng Xi: (●—●)
She awkwardly looked away.
Who exactly is cursing whom here?
(That's too harsh!)
(As expected, beware of fire, theft, and your best friend; who knows if they are badmouthing you behind your back.)
(By the way, when is Sister Fei Xiao coming back!)
(Yeah! A stream without Sister Fei Xiao is just soulless. It's like going to the bathroom without toilet paper.)
(Which scoundrel dares to insult our Sister Fei Xiao? Brothers, charge at him!)
"What do you mean! I, the Streamer, am not bad either, okay!"
Lin Siyu looked at the barrage and stomped her feet in anger.
Damn it! You're all haters, right?
But despite saying that, she still missed Sister Fei Xiao quite a bit, so why not take this opportunity to ask?
"Xiao Meng, how do you think Sister Fei Xiao is doing now?"
Meng Xi pondered for a moment upon hearing this, but still suppressed the thoughts in her heart.
"She said before that she was fine, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Besides, didn't Jiao Xiaoyan tell us too? So we don't have anything to worry about for now."
"Hmm, that's true. With Sister Fei Xiao's capabilities, there's really no need to worry."
Lin Siyu nodded thoughtfully, fully agreeing with her statement.
Might as well just let it go for now.
However, Meng Xi understood one thing in her heart.
Fei Xiao must have had a lot of trouble this time.
Otherwise, she would definitely have returned very easily as usual by now.
But she said she was recuperating at Jiao Xiaoyan's place.
At first, they thought Fei Xiao was just injured in a battle with a Legendary Pokémon.
But Meng Xi knew that Fei Xiao's body probably had some kind of illness.
So, a vague sense of unease had appeared in her heart before, and she didn't know if it was just an illusion.
The rainbow feather that Sister Fei Xiao gave her didn't seem to emit a dazzling light like it used to.
"Huu~"
Meng Xi carefully glanced at Lin Siyu.
After all, she still hadn't told her about her speculations these past few days.
After all, if everything was really as she thought, saying it would only add to the trouble.
"Xiao Meng, hurry up and keep up."
Seeing Meng Xi falling behind, Lin Siyu immediately reminded her to keep up.
Perhaps Lin Siyu did not know the truth of the matter, but she saw everything about Meng Xi clearly.
