Chapter 1160 Warm Autumn Night

"Nine to six." Xu Shanhe read out the ticket number aloud, with a faint smile on his face, feeling happy for Xia Yu.

As he was from the forest patrol team, he was already familiar with Xia Yu. When Xia Yu came to the forest patrol team for internship, he even slept in the same room with him.

I remember that at that time Xia Yu was just an unknown little character. He was only the deputy captain of the forest patrol team and also a teacher in Qingshan Town.

He originally wanted to devote his whole life to the mountains, but Roger's death completely changed his fate.

By the way, I should go back to Qingshan Town next month to visit Roger who is buried in Qingshan Town.

…………

Upon hearing this result, everyone had different expressions.

Li Ruilin also smiled at this time, took over the conversation, and said to everyone: "It seems that most people still recognize Xia Yu's ability. In this case, then this matter is settled."

Li Ruilin said this, turned his head, and set his eyes on Xia Yu, a smile on his face: "Xia Yu, everyone just recognizes that you are qualified to be the champion. If you want to be the champion, you have to defeat one of the seven champions here. Which region's champion do you plan to challenge?"

Listening to Li Ruilin's joking words, Xia Yu also showed a humble smile on his face, nodded slightly, and was humble and polite.

He had just gotten an advantage, so he had to keep a low profile. Besides, Xia Yu, Li Ruilin, and Long Fan had already discussed the subsequent plans. If nothing unexpected happened, he would take over as the East China champion. "Champion Li, I have no plans to compete for the championship for the time being."

"Well, actually, what Vice President Yue and the others said makes sense. You really need to settle down and accumulate experience. Don't go back to East China for the next few days." Li Ruilin looked at Xia Yu earnestly and said, "The Pokémon Association will issue an announcement as soon as possible to explain your identity as Sakaki. You can return to East China after things here are resolved."

Xia Yu: "Okay."

"Just treat these few days as a holiday and have a good rest." After Li Ruilin finished speaking, he waved his hand and did not continue on this topic. He continued, "Okay, Xia Yu, you've finished your business. If there's nothing else, you can leave first."

"Okay." Xia Yu nodded after hearing this, and stood up and walked out of the meeting room.

Watching Xia Yu leave the meeting room, Li Ruilin continued, "Let's talk about the next thing, the recommendation for the president of the China Pokémon Association."

…………

Sakaki's problem has been temporarily resolved here, but its popularity on the Internet is still high, and it is even getting more popular.

"Why hasn't the official announcement been made yet? Could the Summer King really be Sakaki?!"

"I've already said that Sakaki must be Chinese, just look at me!"

"Go search the news a few years ago. Sakaki first appeared in the King's shipwreck. At that time, he protected the Chinese. I said he must be Chinese."

"Actually, I think once you accept that Xia Yu is Sakaki, it's pretty good. I actually like Xia Tianwang more."

"During the day, I am one of the Four Heavenly Kings of East China, beloved by everyone. At night, I transform into Sakaki, the underground guardian of China."

…………

At first, the Chinese people were somewhat skeptical about the authenticity of this news, but as the incident continued to ferment, the general public discovered that the authorities were turning a deaf ear and remained silent.

At this time, the general public gradually came to their senses and realized that Xia Yu might really be Sakaki!

This has also made the Chinese people more enthusiastic about the discussion.

With such high attention, Xia Yu is not suitable to show up in public for the time being, and his work in East China can only be put on hold temporarily. He also took this opportunity to have a good rest for two days and treat it as a vacation for himself.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu rode the Sonic Dragon directly back to the imperial villa.

…………

At night, after a warm dinner.

There seemed to be a hint of the aroma of soup lingering in the air. On that early winter night, the coolness was already quite heavy, seeping into the courtyard in strands.

Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu were wrapped in thick Mealy sheep blankets, snuggling in the rocking chairs in the villa yard.

The yard that was noisy during the day was now quiet. Yaoquaner leaned against the two of them intimately, and only the slow and heavy "creaking" sound of the rocking chair was left, which seemed particularly clear in the cold air.

Charizard lay on the grass beside the two of them, taking a nap, occasionally gently sweeping its black tail, with a look of contentment on its face.

The night sky above is deep, a characteristic of autumn and winter. On the dark blue velvet curtain, the stars appear to have been wiped by the cold air, and are bright and twinkling.

The few ancient trees in the corner of the courtyard are still lush and green even though it is autumn and winter. The dense branches stretch towards the sky like the silhouette of a dancer.

Under the ancient tree, the Lizard King supported himself on the ground with his arms, doing push-ups non-stop to exercise his body. A faint fluorescent green luster shone on his body, and grass-type energy continuously flowed out of his body, spreading to the entire courtyard, making it like spring all year round.

Shining Ace turned into a flaming afterimage and flew across the courtyard. The Iron Warrior bent his knees and sat cross-legged on the ground. The pink double-headed blade floated in front of him. He closed his eyes, focused his mind, and entered a meditative state, honing his willpower.

In the distance, one or two roars could be heard occasionally.

The Double Axe War Dragon was chasing and playing with the Bloodwing Dragon again, while the golden Dragonite was sitting by the lake, feasting on dried fish in his hands.

Ai Guanshi and Majiana walked towards Xia Yu and Xiao Wanyu from the villa with juice and small cakes in their hands.

Xiao Wanyu pulled the blanket up to cover her chin, revealing only a pair of eyes gazing at the starry sky. Her eyelashes seemed slightly moist in the cool night air. She exhaled softly, and the breath instantly turned into a fleeting white mist, curling away.

"When do you plan to take over the championship?" Her voice was a little nasal, and her fingers slightly stretched out from the edge of the blanket, gently nestling in Xia Yu's arms.

Xia Yu didn't respond immediately, but simply leaned closer to Xiao Wanyu, sharing each other's body temperature and the warmth under the blanket. His eyes were calm, enjoying this rare warmth.

The night light in the corner of the yard emitted a dim and soft glow, illuminating the nearby cobblestone road and the tips of the grass covered with a thin layer of frost.

At the beginning, neither of them thought they would be together, but fate is so wonderful.

Love is impulsive at first, but the longer you love, the more you realize that deep love is a responsibility.

"After a while, we must at least get to the bottom of the traitor's case." Xia Yu finally spoke, his voice low and gentle, like a charcoal fire that was about to go out in the furnace.

"Are you cold?" Xia Yu turned his head slightly and saw that the tip of Xiao Wanyu's small nose was slightly red under the starlight.

Xiao Wanyu, who was in her thirties, was at her most charming, mature and full of charm. When Xia Yu was with her, his thoughts would always wander.

"Not bad," Xiao Wanyu huddled into the blanket, but the corners of her mouth curved into a comfortable arc. She was obviously the elder sister, but when she was with Xia Yu, she was like a little woman, relying on Xia Yu as a little bird. "With the blanket, you, and so many friends, I won't be cold."

As she spoke, her gaze withdrew from the starry sky and fell on Xia Yu's face, with a sense of satisfaction wrapped in warmth.

The rocking chair was still rocking steadily, but at a slower and heavier pace, as if time had stopped at this moment.

The hands under the blanket had been quietly held together without anyone noticing, and the fingertips conveyed the warmth of the autumn night.

The shadows of the leaves in the yard move slowly on the ground to the rhythm of the rocking chair, like the silent footsteps of time.

Each other's breathing and heartbeats are getting closer and closer.
