Ding-dong~.
The elevator opened.
As Natsume stepped out, he saw a Froslass sprinting towards him.
"Frost~"
The Froslass stopped in front of Natsume and held up a cake, calling out to him.
"Is this for me?"
"Frost~"
The Froslass nodded.
"Thank you, Froslass."
Natsume took the cake, squatted down, and expressed his gratitude.
At the door of room 2023, a woman in a white apron leaned against the door and smiled, "This child really likes you."
"I just made a new product, and she specially packaged one for you, saying she wanted to keep it for you to eat."
Shen Tian, Natsume's neighbor, ran a cake shop.
"I'm so touched, Froslass."
Natsume said, taking out his Poké Ball, "By the way, let me introduce you to a few friends."
"Frost?"
The Froslass looked at Natsume curiously.
"Come out, everyone."
Bang~
The Poké Ball opened.
"Diglett~"
Diglett rubbed its eyes.
The Houndour immediately looked around alertly after emerging from the Poké Ball.
This was a habit it had developed from living in the wild.
Shen Tian looked at the Pokémon Natsume released and recited their names, "Diglett, it looks so cute."
"And Houndour, and... Wow!"
Shen Tian's eyes widened as she looked at the Dratini that was winding its way onto Natsume, "Is that a Dratini?"
The Dratini greeted Shen Tian.
"Fwoo~"
Natsume smiled, "Yes."
"Also, starting tomorrow, I'm going back to the countryside to manage the farm, so I might not be back very often."
"Huh? That's amazing."
Shen Tian's gaze shifted from the Dratini to Natsume, asking curiously, "What are you planning to raise?"
"Currently, I plan to start with some crops that Pokémon love."
"Later on, I'll also raise Pokémon like Miltank and Beedrill."
Shen Tian immediately said, "If that's the case, then I'm going to pre-order Miltank's milk and Beedrill's honey right now."
Shen Tian laughed, "As your first customer, I should get a discount, right?"
"Of course."
Natsume generously said, "Free delivery for you, delivered to your shop~."
"Haha, okay."
Shen Tian smiled, "Then we won't disturb you anymore."
Shen Tian waved to the Froslass, "Froslass, let's go back."
"We have to get up early tomorrow to open the shop."
"Frost~"
The Froslass waved to Natsume.
Natsume held up the cake, "Goodnight, Froslass."
"Also, your cake is delicious."
"Frost~"
The Froslass happily narrowed its eyes.
After watching them go back into their room, Natsume went to his own room door.
Room number: 2024.
Click~
The door lock opened.
"Come in, everyone."
"Awoo~"
Houndour was the first to go in, sniffing the room's scent.
Natsume turned on the light, "Just find a spot to sleep, everyone."
Diglett looked like it was really tired.
It looked around and immediately jumped onto a single-person sofa and curled up.
After Natsume finished showering, he lay in bed and scrolled through videos.
The videos were mostly from different farm owners.
This content was very valuable to Natsume.
At the same time, this content gave Natsume more ideas about the future of his farm.
For example, one farm owner's main business was planting fruit orchards.
He also raised many Graveler.
Later, his farm's name became one of the largest juice brands in the country.
This world has many Pokémon with abilities that can be used in daily life.
Like the Saltrock that can produce salt, or the Minccino that can produce oil.
These can all be raised as farm Pokémon.
"But for now, the most important thing is to plant the Wynaut Berry tomorrow and complete the first harvest as soon as possible."
Thinking this, Natsume turned to the Dratini beside him, "It's getting late, let's go to sleep too."
The Dratini yawned and lay down beside Natsume's pillow.
"Awoo~"
Houndour lay down by the window.
"Goodnight, Houndour."
Natsume turned off the light.
The summer night breeze was always very comfortable.
Moonlight shone through the open window, illuminating the small room.
It also shone into the dreams of the boy and his Pokémon.
...
Ding-a-ling-a-ling~
The alarm clock rang.
"Awoo!"
The Houndour, which was lying on the rug, jumped up when it heard the alarm clock, let out a low growl, and assumed a defensive posture.
Natsume opened his eyes, turned off the alarm clock, and said to Houndour, "Don't worry, it's just the alarm clock."
"Mini~"
The Dratini crawled up the blanket to Natsume's side.
"Good morning, Dratini."
Natsume sat up in bed.
"Diglett~"
Diglett called out to Natsume and then rubbed its belly.
"Hungry, Diglett?"
"Diglett."
Diglett nodded.
"Wait a minute, I'll get you breakfast."
Natsume put on his shoes and walked to the kitchen.
He opened the refrigerator.
The refrigerator only had half a bottle of cola left.
Slam!
He closed the refrigerator and opened the cabinet.
The cabinet was empty.
Natsume turned around.
Dratini, Houndour, and Diglett were looking at him.
Natsume felt a little embarrassed, "Everyone, let's order takeout."
