Chapter 1356 "Mother and Daughter" Meet

Chapter 1356 "Mother and Daughter" Meet

An Xin'er believed Hu Pa's words.

"Which other dimension is this, Miare—ah!"

Darkrai's sudden appearance startled her, and Hoopa immediately pulled her head back into the golden ring.

But the attack did not take place.

Darkrai simply watched the two beings with golden rings, especially Hoopa.

An Xin'er clenched her small fists nervously and said awkwardly, "Y-hello..."

"Hello."

Darkrai responded politely.

This made An Xin'er's expression instantly relax a lot. She was worried that she would be attacked, but subconsciously she didn't want to run away.

She felt that the Pokémon in front of her might be the source of the anomaly from a while ago.

An Xin'er asked, "Is this your home?"

"……no."

Darkrai didn't quite understand why the other person asked that question, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly disappeared from the spot.

An Xin'er looked around in surprise, "How did they disappear?"

Hoopa poked his head out again and asked, "Where's that scary guy?"

"do not know……"

An Xin'er shook her head.

Looking down at the brightly lit modern city below, she said, "Let's go down and take a look."

She couldn't see clearly because it was too far away.

Upon hearing this, Hupa obediently moved the light wheel to the top of the tower.

"Heave-ho~"

An Xin'er stepped onto the flat ground, and her anxious expression relaxed further.

Just then, a sound came from the side.

"Hello."

"Waaah!"

An Xin'er trembled in fright and turned around to find a handsome man with outstanding temperament standing next to him was Darkrai, who had just disappeared.

Kashiwagi looked at the unfamiliar little girl, then at Hoopa beside her, with a strange expression. "Where did you come from?"

"That's the question we should be asking!"

Seeing strangers emboldened Hoopa, though he still hid behind An Xin'er, he still wouldn't hold back, shouting, "How did you get into this other dimension?"

Kashiwagi: "...This is not another dimension."

Upon hearing this, An Xin'er looked at Hu Pa and said, "I knew this wasn't the place!"

"It must be the donuts you gave me that are the problem!" Hoopa firmly refused to accept that it was his fault.

Kashiwa raised his hand to stop the two from arguing. "Alright, you can argue in private. First, tell me who you are, where you're from, and what you're planning to do."

A little girl who looked no more than six or seven years old, and clearly not the Hoopa he knew.

This combination was so outrageous that it left him confused.

A new character in the game? An original character from the anime?

While Kashiwagi was pondering, An Xin'er honestly explained her background, "My name is An Xin'er, I come from Luna City, and I'm searching for the legendary Pokémon for my mother."

"Your mother? Your mother is a Pokémon Hunter?" Multi-Phone couldn't help but ask.

An Xin'er glanced at the talking phone in surprise, "No... my mother is the champion."

"champion!?"

Bai Mu and Duobian looked completely bewildered.

There are only a few female champions on the market, but it seems that none of them have daughters!

Could it be the previous champion?

Before Kashiwagi could even figure out which former champion An Xin'er's mother was, the multi-faceted phone beside him spoke up, "Your mother... is Carlos champion Karuni?"

"Yes, that's right."

An Xin'er said shyly.

Kashiwagi: "..."

WTF!?

Karuni has a daughter? An illegitimate child?!

Kashiwagi's expression at this moment was like seeing the female supporting character in the movie "I Choose You" whose mother was 90% similar to Takeran.

He instinctively turned to his phone and said, "Contact her quickly."

"Oh."

Without hesitation, and disregarding the time, Duobian immediately called Karuni.

An Xin'er instinctively wanted to stop her, but then suddenly realized something, "How did you get my mother's phone number?"

"I also want to ask, since your mother is Karuni, how come you don't recognize me?" Kashiwagi stepped forward so that the other person could see his face clearly in the moonlight. "Are you sure, little sister?"

He already had a guess in his mind.

Surprisingly, the call was answered at the eerie midnight hour.

Karuni's languid voice came from the other end, "If your answer doesn't satisfy me, I might get revenge, you know~ Kashiwagi~"

The familiar voice and unfamiliar tone filled An Xin'er with both joy and confusion. Before Bai Mu could reply, she asked tremblingly, "Mother?"

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, as if they were trying to confirm who was calling.

For some reason, Kashiwagi didn't say anything, choosing instead to stand by and watch with malicious intent.

A few seconds later, as An Xin'er's nervousness became evident, Karuni's clear voice came from the other end of the line, "Little girl, did you find someone else's phone? I'm champion Karuni, don't be nervous, I can help you."

"...Mother, I am An Xin'er."

An Xin'er was about to cry.

She had no idea what was going on, and the voice on the other end of the phone sounded so familiar.

There was a lot of noise coming from the other end of the phone; it seemed that Karuni's female agent had entered her room and was explaining the situation to her.

Kashiwagi, no longer standing by, laughed and said, "Hey, were you scared?"

"...Oh my god, Kashiwagi! You're such a jerk!" Karen's voice, a mix of relief and anger, came through. "Playing this kind of prank in the middle of the night!"

"I'm sorry, but it's not a prank. There really is a little girl named An Xin'er in front of me."

Kashiwagi didn't provoke her further. "She's probably your daughter from a parallel universe."

parallel world.

Upon hearing this word, An Xin'er, whose eyes were reddening, and Karuni on the other end of the phone both fell silent.

An Xin'er then looked at the neon-lit city of Miarei, feeling as if all her doubts had been instantly resolved. She immediately turned around and pinched Hoopa, angrily saying, "Hoopa! You really did drive the wrong car!"

"I told you, Hoopa only opens the wrong door when he eats the wrong donut." Hoopa turned and ran away, and An Xin'er chased after him relentlessly.

Karen sighed on the other end of the phone, "Kashiwagi, did I offend you in some way?"

I disturbed her sleep in the middle of the night and said a bunch of nonsensical things.

What daughter? What parallel world?

If she were even slightly less intelligent, she wouldn't be able to process this information right now.

"No, that's not true. It's precisely because I consider you a good friend that I'm telling you something so important."

Bai Mu smiled and said, "Aren't you curious about what your daughter would look like?"

Karuni fell silent again.

How could she not care? Or perhaps, she was simply incredibly curious about her daughter in this parallel world.

—This is on the premise that Kashiwagi really didn't lie to her.

Karuni's intuition told her that the other person wouldn't do something so pointless in the middle of the night.

She then asked, "Where are you? In Miare?"

“Yes, she and I were at the top of the Prism Tower.” Bai Mu glanced at An Xin’er, who was pinching Hu Pa’s cheeks.

I have to say, this little girl is really cute.

In my past life, I would probably have been bombarded with Char Aznable memes.

Karuni gave an address, "Could you bring her here?"

"I'll give it a try."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

The phone hangs up.

Bai Mu looked at An Xin'er and said, "Would you be interested in meeting your mother's parallel world counterpart?"

"……this."

The little girl hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sure, I'd like to see what my mother looked like when she was young too."

Kashiwa raised an eyebrow. "Young? How old is your mother?"

Instead of directly mentioning her mother's youth, An Xin'er told Bai Mu about the timeline of her world.

It happened just three years later!

“Three years? Impossible! Miare City was destroyed five years ago and only rebuilt last year!” An Xin’er quickly shook her head.

It was through this point that she confirmed that the current Miare City was the past.

But unexpectedly, the timeline was only three years apart.

This made Kashiwagi realize that she was most likely from the timeline where the city of Miare was destroyed.

He then told Anxin'er that Team Flare had been eliminated two years prior, leaving Lucerne City completely unscathed.

and many more.

"How old are you this year?" Bai Mu looked An Xin'er up and down.

An Xin'er said shyly, "Six years old... one month short."

Six years old!

That means if Karuni's life trajectory is the same as in the parallel world, An Xin'er in this world would already be two years old!

Kashiwagi began to doubt this top champion once again.

The two left the Prism Tower by elevator without disturbing Citron and Yulijia.

Target coffee shop.

Kashiwagi met Karenie and her manager, who were dressed in casual clothes.

An Xin'er looked at her expectantly, "Mom—"

Before she could finish speaking, she remembered that the other person was not her real mother, but an counterpart from a parallel world.

Karuni stared blankly at An Xin'er, and before she could speak, her manager, Minami, exclaimed, "So alike! Absolutely so alike!"

In Meibo's opinion, Anxin'er and Karuni when they were young are practically identical.

Bai Mu gestured for An Xin'er to sit down in front of the two of them and said to her, "Don't feel too much pressure. Just treat her like your aunt. You two are probably related by blood."

One sentence was enough to bring Karuni back to her senses.

She scolded playfully, "What are you saying! Who's the auntie?"

"Are you suggesting I call you 'sister'? That would be a generational difference." Kashiwagi called for the waiter to bring coffee.

The kids can't drink coffee, so we substituted juice.

Hupa was clamoring for a donut.

Why do all Hoopas love eating donuts?

When Kashiwagi saw that the coffee shop didn't have any for sale, he asked Gengar in the shadows to bring out the stock. Although it was for his own Hoopa, it could be used occasionally in an emergency.

Hupa was happy.

An Xin'er switched seats with Mei Bo and sat close to Karuni with a flushed face.

Karuni was almost melted by the cuteness and took the initiative to start chatting with An Xin'er, who naturally couldn't wait to chat more with her "mother".

In her world, Karuni was too busy with work, so she was often left alone until she found the injured Hoopa half a year ago, which allowed her to say goodbye to her lonely life.

During her time with Hoopa, she coincidentally met Rayquaza in the alternate dimension of Miare, thus embarking on her journey to pursue Rayquaza.

An Xin'er's idea was simple: to capture Rayquaza and hand it over to her mother, so that her mother could become the strongest trainer. That was all.

As for whether it will work or not...

That depends on how well her hops are used.

After Bai Mu and the other two had finished their conversation, they began to ask An Xin'er about the future of Miarei City.

She told us that Lumiose City is currently experiencing a "natural disaster," and the Pokémon living in the city are forced to Mega Evolve due to an excess of Psychic Power, thus going into a berserk state.

"Superpower?"

The word "Karuni" is unfamiliar to me.

Kashiwagi then drew parallels to Team Flare's attempt to draw power from the legendary monolith.

An Xin'er added that the other dimension, Miare, had also appeared, but a couple of days ago, the other dimension above the Prism Tower became a bit strange, and then suddenly burst out with green light and collapsed.

She sneaked up to the top of the Prism Tower and used a donut to get Hoopa to open the door so she could go inside. Instead, she ended up in a parallel world.

An Xin'er fidgeted with her fingers and said, "I want to catch a legendary Pokémon for my mother..."

"Baby~ You're so cute!" Karuni's maternal instincts kicked in, and she hugged An Xin'er tightly.

Kashiwagi almost choked to death on his coffee.

baby?

She's already calling me "baby" after only a few minutes? Is she some kind of old auntie?

However, he could understand Karuni; there was nothing wrong with wanting a child at her age.

Karuni looked at Kashiwagi warily and asked, "Are you thinking about something very rude?"

"I am indeed wondering if you have a boyfriend and a two- or three-year-old child in private." Bai Mu didn't care whether the other person minded or not.

Karuni frowned her pretty brows, gave a soft snort, and was too lazy to pay any more attention to this presumptuous fellow.

Minami said quietly, "Karuni hasn't had much contact with men in private these past two years. If we're talking about who might be the one, it's actually you who's the most likely."

"Cough cough cough..."

Bai Mu covered his embarrassment with a cough, but when he noticed An Xin'er secretly watching him out of the corner of his eye, he asked, "An Xin'er, who is your father?"

This statement caught the attention of Minami and Karune.

Neither of them dared to ask before, partly because they were afraid that Karuni would really take it to heart; and partly because they felt that their parallel world selves had nothing to do with them.

If you're curious...

There is some degree of it.

Facing the gazes of the three, An Xin'er shook her head sadly and said, "My mother... she never told me... but having my mother is enough!"

As she said this, her gaze was intentionally or unintentionally fixed on Kashiwagi.

The phone accurately captures and types on the screen—"Could this be you from a parallel universe?"

Snapped!

Cypress wood knocked it away.

How could that be? I am a unique being, just like Dialga and Palkia, not a plural being.

The parallel world version of yourself can never be yourself.

His mind was firm.

The four of them sat outside until dawn, when Minami couldn't help but remind Karune of today's announcements and schedule.

Karuni said, "I'm canceling them all! I want to go out and play with An Xin'er!"

This woman was completely captivated by An Xin'er.

Minami had anticipated this, and instead of being disappointed, she nodded in agreement, "Okay! I'll contact them for you!"

An Xin'er was also very happy about this, and looked at Bai Mu and said, "Can you come along?"

"Me? I still need to go watch the game—"

“We’ll go too! Come on, Kashiwagi!” Karuni interrupted Kashiwagi, while secretly giving him a wink.

He had an expression that said, "How could you bear to refuse a five or six-year-old girl?"

Kashiwagi was speechless.

But looking at An Xin'er and her Hupa, he thought for a moment and said, "That's fine too."

Considering you're an important NPC, I'll let you off the hook.
