"really beautiful!"

“So many glass handicrafts look shiny when put together, and they come in all shapes!”

"I really want to buy one..."

Xiaoxia walked up to one of the shops and began to admire the dazzling array of glass products.

Of course, she was just talking and had no real intention to buy it.

After all, she no longer has any budget, and she has to travel to various islands and participate in the Orange League competition. She doesn't dare to bring such beautiful-looking, but at the same time, very fragile exquisite crafts.

On the body.

"Well……"

"I'm more concerned about other things."

"Everyone, how are we going to find the person who threw the bottle and talk to him (her) about the crystal rock snake?"

“This island looks quite big!”

"Although the town is not very big, it might not be easy to find a certain person, right?"

Then, after everyone chatted for a while, Xiaozhi suddenly mentioned the drift bottle they had picked up at the sea and asked with a sad face.

Originally, they planned to just take supplies and rest here on Ponkan Island before setting off to another island immediately. However, now that they have received that kind of news, they know that there is a rare Pokémon like the 'Crystal Rock Snake' in this world.

, then they want to see it no matter what.

So, finding the person who threw the drift bottle and asking for some basic information might provide some valuable clues for them to find the big rock snake?

"have no idea."

"This is my first time coming to this island..."

"I'm afraid it's not easy to find someone on an island like this with small towns and villages, right?"

Anyway, Xiaoxia doesn't have any hope.

And the reason why they come here is just to look at the rare things and take some supplies and rest. If they really can't find it, they will definitely have to set off again later, at least before dusk, to go to the next island.

"Huh?"

"Annie!"

"Hello!"

"Where are you headed?"

At this time, before Xiaoxia went to talk to Xiaozhi and Xiaojian to say something, she was surprised to find that Annie was walking forward on her own and was very far away soon.

, you have no intention of waiting for them?

"Go find it slowly!"

()

“You have to go shopping by yourself first!”

()

With that said, Annie continued to stride forward.

She has never been interested in glass crafts, nor is she interested in crystal rock snakes, because now she is only interested in edible ones!

so!

Since those people wanted to find the Crystal Rock Snake, of course she had to go and play with her own!

"But!"

"Annie..."

Xiaoxia opened her mouth to stop her, but she didn't know what to say. She could only watch the little figure walking further and further away.

"It's fine!"

"The three of us can find it, can't we?"

Seeing that Annie was about to leave, Xiaozhi certainly didn't take it to heart. Instead, he grabbed Xiaoxia and started to encourage everyone.

"I believe!"

"We will definitely find that magical big rock snake!"

Although there are indeed difficulties, Xiaozhi still believes that with his ability, he will be able to find the person who threw the drift bottle, and then find the very, very rare crystal rock snake mentioned in the other party's letter!

"Yes, yes! I know!"

"only……"

"If Annie goes to play by herself, we're afraid we'll have to spend our own money again!"

Xiaoxia sighed in frustration.

If she could, she really wanted to say loudly: The big rock snake and the like were actually not important. What she was most worried about now was who would pay for them after Annie went to play by herself.

"!!"

"Yes!"

"How could I forget this matter..."

After Xiaoxia's reminder, Xiaozhi also remembered it and subconsciously exclaimed.

But unfortunately, it seems too late for him to think of it now.

Because, when he quickly raised his head and looked forward, towards the bustling street with tourists, Annie's little jumping figure had already gone to nowhere.

"That……"

"Do you want to go find her now?"

"At least let her treat us to a meal first?"

Therefore, Xiaozhi suggested that he should catch up with and follow Annie first, and then wait until he had eaten and drank enough before doing anything else.

"never mind!"

"That's too bad!"

After thinking about it, Xiaoxia felt that it was a bit too deliberate for the three of them to go to Annie to eat and drink, so she rejected Xiaozhi's unreliable proposal.

"Let's think about where to find the big crystal rock snake as soon as possible!"

"I also want to see that kind of rare Pokémon!"

"Then……"

"After we find the crystal rock snake, let's go back to find Annie?"

"Maybe in time for dinner?"

Although the other party had already treated the guests yesterday, and it was always a bit uncomfortable to eat and drink with them today, Xiaoxia, who was short of money, could not care so much.

In her opinion, their situation will continue to be as bad as it is now in the next period of time, unless Xiaozhi really gets good results in the Orange League competition, otherwise, they are afraid that they will really

The only option is to ask Dr. Ohki or his family for travel expenses.

"That's fine!"

"Then let's prepare first and then set off to investigate!"

Xiaozhi had no idea at first, but now that he heard what Xiaoxia said, of course he changed his mind and agreed directly.

"Prepare?"

"What do you need to prepare?"

At this time, Xiao Jian on the side felt a little strange and couldn't help but come over and ask.

"Of course I have to fill my stomach first!"

"I'm starving to death!"

"I want to eat all kinds of delicious food!"

Xiaozhi didn't even think about it and directly said what he wanted to do most and most urgently at the moment. After all, they had been hungry all night.

"Beep! Beep!"

The Pikachu at his feet also echoed and cheered.

Come to think of it, they took the 'Chenglong' Laplace and swam across the sea from Jingan Island to Pongan Island. After a night of tossing, they were physically and mentally exhausted and they definitely needed to eat something to rest and replenish their physical strength.

.

“It’s okay to eat!”

“But eating and drinking is out of the question!”

"Annie just ran off to play by herself, unless you can find her and then shamelessly ask her to help pay the bill?"

Without even thinking about it, Xiaoxia directly rejected Xiaozhi's naive idea.
