Chapter 309 Xia Mu's Work
Natsuki accepted Daigo's praise.
Then.
"Come on, let me take you to the door to rinse off first!"
After letting the Sea Lion wash the mud off Daigo's body with a water gun, Natsuki took Daigo, who had changed into his own clothes, to taste the cooking of the Green Vine Snake.
After making arrangements, Natsuki received a thank-you gift of 10 yen from Daigo and saw him off as he prepared to go to a nearby guesthouse to change his clothes.
Then, Xia Mu welcomed a new guest.
"Miss Officer Jenny, my little mud donkey is missing!"
Amidst anxious shouts, a little girl with pigtails rushed into the police station.
Although she was stunned for a moment when she saw the unfamiliar Xia Mu in front of her, she quickly reacted.
"Big brother, you're the police officer here to relieve Miss Officer Jenny, right? — Please help me! Mud Donkey has only been hatched for a short time, and this is his first time going out today!"
Looking at the little girl in front of him who was almost crying, Xia Mu scratched his head and couldn't bring himself to refuse.
"Don't cry yet, where did your mud-covered donkey go missing?"
"Well, I originally just came to deliver something, but halfway there Mud Donkey suddenly got very scared and ran straight into the forest. I can't find him—"
Xia Mu nodded.
"I see! Officer Mibrim!"
"Mibu!"
Mibrim immediately flew to Natsuki's side.
"Mibrim, use your super-powerful emotional radar to sense if there are any Pokémon nearby that seem scared!"
"Mibu!"
Mibrim nodded immediately, and the small blue ball-like protrusion on its tail immediately shone brightly.
Mibrims can sense the emotions of living beings through protrusions on the tails of their heads, and the range of this reading is closely related to the strength of their psychic power.
The stronger one's mental power, the wider the range of reading.
And once Mibrim's final evolution, Brimwyn, Gigantamaxes, it can even read the emotions of creatures 50 kilometers away.
Although Xia Mu's Mibrim is not yet able to read a range of more than 50 kilometers, it can easily read a range of more than ten kilometers.
However, generally speaking, Mibrim, being a Serenity Pokémon, doesn't really like such strong emotions.
When Mibrim senses strong emotions, she will run away; when Tibrim senses strong emotions, she will beat the other person with the braids on her head; when Brimwyn senses strong emotions, she will tear the other person apart with her claws enhanced by mental power or play with the other person to vent her anger.
But Natsuki's Mibrim is different; she seems to really like these strong emotions, which may be one of the reasons why Mibrim chose Natsuki.
In short, thanks to Mibrim's emotional radar, the mud-loving donkey that got lost after being accidentally separated from its trainer on its first outing was immediately found.
"You mud-covered donkey!"
After Natsuki and Mibrim landed from the sky with the little girl, Mud Donkey, who was shivering under a big tree with its head covered by its hooves, finally saw its trainer.
"Hey kid!"
The mud-covered donkey carrying a small bamboo basket on its back immediately rushed to the little girl.
After Xia Mu saw off the mud donkey and the little girl, he returned to the police station with a fresh cabbage as a thank-you gift.
Officer Jenny still hadn't returned by then.
but----
"Big brother, my sheep pen suddenly collapsed! Please come and help!"
'
'
Xia Mu sets off again.
"Big brother, my shop has been robbed by a greedy squirrel!"
'
Xia Mu sets off once again!
"Big brother, I—"
Let's go!
In short, when Xiaoyao, Ziyu, and the others returned with snacks, Xia Mu and his Pokémon were already slumped helplessly on the table.
"I'm so tired~ Is Officer Jenny's job that busy?"
"Meow~"
Even the Magic Masked Cat couldn't understand it.
Back in Raven City, the Officer Jenny she knew was a good-for-nothing woman who spent her days wandering around aimlessly, then went to the Pokémon Center to steal Häagen-Dazs ice cream and fight with Natsume.
Even Officer Jenny from other cities seemed no different from Officer Jenny, always following Natsuki, ready to arrest her.
But today—
In just a few short hours, all sorts of trivial matters have come knocking on my door.
The goats that were riding on one farm ran off to graze on another farm, and the two goats decided to go outside and fight, eventually destroying the third farm's sheep pen.
The owners of two rice cake shops were preparing to have a cooking competition, and the greedy squirrels, who were acting as judges, rushed into the shops and feasted as soon as they heard the words "eat as much as you want".
Two children are battling with their newly acquired Pokémon, and accidentally break the neighbor's window—and so on.
Even though Natsuki has seven Pokémon that can stand on their own, he and his Pokémon are still exhausted from all the events.
At this moment, Officer Jenny returned here with Haruka and the others.
"What happened here?!"
The once tidy police station was now in complete disarray.
Muddy water at the doorway, various footprints on the tiles, a large amount of vegetables and fruits piled on the desk, a stove that appeared out of nowhere in the corner, and a child writing a letter of apology with a wronged expression —
Officer Jenny was completely confused at that moment.
When faced with Officer Jenny's question, Natsuki's eyes were filled with resentment.
"You seem to be having a lot of fun, but Meow Meow and the others are—"
Listening to Xia Mu's story, Officer Jenny stared in shock.
"How could that be? There's practically nothing to do in this little village—we all call coming here for duty a vacation!"
The most bustling part of this small village is the street where the police station is located. Apart from some guesthouse owners, the residents all live on their own farms.
The distance between each house is exceptionally far.
For them, coming here to do business is similar to going out to meet friends. Occasional quarrels are resolved by each other taking a step back after being persuaded by others, and the police never have to intervene.
Officer Jenny usually spends most of her time in the duty room spacing out, while children from nearby farms come to play.
Even this police station was actually set up to receive trainers from other cities.
In case of any major incidents, it's always the Beigu Township Police Station that handles them; it's never their turn.
This is why Officer Jenny felt comfortable taking Haruka and Ziyu to a nearby farm together.
Officer Jenny didn't want to believe it, but looking at Natsuki, who was exhausted, and the two kids nodding repeatedly, she had to accept it. While she was playing, this man, whose reputation among Officer Jenny was complicated, had taken over the work that was supposed to be hers.
At that moment, Natsuki suddenly remembered Daigo's earlier reminder.
"By the way, there's a dangerous area in the Beigu Cave where the rock walls seem to be crumbling. Someone should be coming to guide us later, so let's get the warning sign ready!"
"good!"
Officer Jenny nodded blankly, looking at Natsuki and his Pokémon lying on the table, a sense of guilt welled up inside her. Even May and Ziyu felt the same way at that moment, once again realizing Natsuki's gentleness, and also felt guilty for leaving him behind to play.
This feeling of guilt immediately transformed into tender hospitality towards Xia Mu.
So, Xia Mu thoroughly enjoyed life.
