Chapter 49 The truth about the bitterness medicine (Xiao Shun's alienation)
Chi Haimo: "Shuaida, can you let me see the outside world?"
Darkrai: "Uh, this may not work. My power right now is simply not enough to interfere with dreams."
Chi Haimo: "Well, can you go out and help me find the doctor and explain my situation?"
Darkrai: “Uh…”
Seeing that Darkrai was reluctant to agree, Heimer immediately guessed that he was afraid that he would be discovered by those who were chasing him as soon as he went out.
Chi Haimo: "Well, forget it, it would be bad if something happened to you."
Darkrai: "Heimer, thank you."
Chi Haimo: "It's okay."
(Well, come to think of it, the reason why I had nightmares before was probably because of Shuai Da’s characteristics.)
After hearing what was in Heimer's mind, Darkrai clapped his hands at Heimer and spoke happily.
Darkrai: “Yeah, that’s correct.”
Chi Haimo: "Don't listen to my heart! By the way, you should know where I come from..."
Faced with Hemmer's doubts, Darkrai neither lied nor remained silent, but simply nodded in acknowledgement.
Darkrai: "Don't worry, I will keep your secret. But in exchange, you can't tell anyone about me in your dream."
After hearing what Darkrai said, Heimer agreed without even thinking about it.
Chi Haimo: "Okay, I promise you."
Darkrai: "Well, no, words are not enough. We need to do a..."
(What is this? It can’t be a devil’s contract or something like that!)
Darkrai: "Uh, no, we'll never change for a hundred years!"
Darkrai stretched out his finger and tried to pinky promise with Hemmer, but Hemmer had never expected this method of guarantee.
After Darkrai and Highmore made promises to each other, they sat on the ground together and started chatting.
Chi Haimo: "But, speaking of which, the reason I was locked up here was because of that medicine?"
Darkrai: "Well, I think so. However, the medicine you drank later seemed to only help you alleviate the effects of the previous medicine."
Chi Haimo: "What do you mean, are you saying that the bitterness medicine is the antidote for not giving up smoking and not leaving medicine?"
Darkrai: "In my opinion, the bitterness medicine helped you turn the price that your body could not bear into a mere coma. If it was the price you paid for not giving up cigarettes and medicine, I'm afraid your body would have become unrecognizable by now."
Heimer tried hard to recall everything in the past, and suddenly he remembered something strange.
Chi Haimo: "Shuaida, so the reason why the pain gradually subsided every time the drug took effect was because of the bitterness-recalling medicine? Because of the bitterness-recalling medicine, the physical pain turned into psychological pain."
Darkrai: "Yeah, yes."
Chi Haimo: "I don't understand. I fell into a coma because my body had reached its limit. I couldn't bear the cost of any medicine. But, for my body to reach its limit, isn't it related to not taking medicine? I clearly drank the bitterness-recalling medicine before I fell into a coma. Why did I still fall into a coma in the end?"
Darkrai: "That's because your body has developed resistance to the medicine, so the bitterness medicine is gradually becoming ineffective."
After listening to Darkrai's words, Heimer suddenly realized.
Chi Haimo: "I see. By the way, how do you know my physical condition so well?"
Darkrai: "Although I cannot control dreams, I can feel the thoughts of the dream owner and his physical condition."
Chi Haimo: "Alas, it seems that now I can only wait, I hope someone can rescue me."
On the other side, in the real world, Xiao Shun is talking to the doctor about Heimer's condition. The doctor tells Xiao Shun about Heimer's specific condition and what happened between Heimer and the color craze, as well as his previous daily visits to the hospital for check-ups.
Xiao Shun: "No wonder he looked so wrong when we talked about color craze earlier."
Doctor: "Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with his physical condition at the moment, and Miss Junsha is already investigating the color craze."
Xiao Shun: "Well, how long will it take for him to wake up?"
Doctor: "Don't worry about that. Although I can't completely remove the toxins from his body, I have successfully improved the remaining bitterness-recalling medicine these days. After he drinks it, he should wake up soon."
After getting the medicine, Xiao Shun walked out of the doctor's office dejectedly. On the way to Heimer's ward, he saw a girl in front of Heimer's ward from a distance.
Xiao Shun: "Hello, who are you?"
Lin Luo turned around and found that Xiao Shun was looking at him.
Lin Luo: "Hello, I'm Lin Luo, I'm Haimo's partner, right? How about you?"
Xiao Shun was about to answer Lin Luo, but suddenly remembered that Heimer had not told him anything about this matter, and felt a little angry for some reason.
Xiao Shun: "As for me, it's his... um, nothing, I'm just a passerby who saw him fainted, so I brought him here."
Lin Luo: "Is that so? Well, looking at Heimer's condition, it's probably because of the poison from the color frenzy."
Xiao Shun: "Do you know that Color Fever poisoned him?"
Lin Luo: "Ah? Well, yes, Heimer once told me."
When Xiao Shun heard Lin Luo's words, the expression on his face became even more serious.
Xiao Shun: "I see... Since you are here, I will leave first. I have already paid the medical expenses. By the way, this is for you. Go and give it to the nurse later and let the nurse feed him."
After Xiao Shun handed the improved bitter recall medicine to Lin Luo, he left the hospital.
Lin Luo: "I shouldn't have said anything wrong."
After that, after Heimer took the potion that Lin Luo gave to the nurse, he slowly regained consciousness.
On the other side, in the dream, Heimer's body gradually became transparent.
Darkrai: "Heimer, have you become transparent?"
Chi Haimo: “Is there?”
Heimer looked down at his hands and found that he was disappearing.
Chi Haimo: "What's going on!"
Darkrai: "Looks like you're about to wake up."
After hearing what Darkrai said, Heimer knew that it might be difficult for him to enter the dream again, so Heimer said a little sadly.
Chi Haimo: "Is that so? Goodbye, Darkrai."
Darkrai: "Well, goodbye, Hammer. If we can't meet again in the future, then you must not forget me."
Chi Haimo: "Yeah, don't worry, I promise you, I won't forget you, I promise."
After Heimer completely disappeared in the dream, Heimer in reality gradually woke up.
Lin Luo: "Heimer, that's great, you finally woke up."
Chi Haimo: "Lin Luo, why are you here?"
Lin Luo: "Ah, working, hahahaha."
Chi Haimo: "By the way, have you seen a boy with green hair?"
Lin Luo: "Oh, you mean Xiao Shun. After he gave me the bitterness-recalling medicine, he left the hospital. But he looked quite unhappy. Hmm, I guess I didn't say anything wrong."
When Heimer heard about the bitter memory medicine, he seemed to understand something immediately, so he jumped off the bed, put on his shoes and ran out of the hospital.
Lin Luo: "Hey! Heimer!"
Chi Haimo: "Sorry Lin Luo, I have to go find Xiao Shun."
Heimer was running on the streets of Violet City in his slippers.
(Given Xiao Shun’s personality, if he is in a bad mood right now, he will definitely be in that place.)
After Heimer arrived at the Pokémon Center, he immediately went to the training ground of the Pokémon Center.
Xiao Shun: "Poison rose, magic leaf! Rain-winged moth, freezing ray."
On the training ground, Poison Rose spun like a dancer and used her magic leaf towards the sky, while Rainwing Moth immediately gathered ice power and fired freezing rays that surrounded the magic leaf.
The green and blue lights complemented each other, and the magic leaves and freezing rays finally gathered in the sky, scattering from the air to the ground like stars.
Xiao Shun: "Well, the effect is very good, Poison Rose, Rain Wing Moth, let's do it again."
Chi Haimo: "Xiao Shun!"
Heimer staggered to Xiaoshun in his slippers.
After seeing Heimer, Xiao Shun put Poison Rose and Rainwing Moth back into the Poké Ball and said to Heimer coldly.
Xiao Shun: "Oh, it's you. Are you feeling better?"
Chi Haimo: "Well, Xiao Shun, I have something to tell you."
Seeing this, Xiao Shun walked directly behind Heimer and said to him.
Xiao Shun: "Forget it, why don't you go and tell that person called Lin Luo? Didn't you tell her about the color craze before?"
After hearing Xiao Shun's words, Heimer asked very puzzledly.
Chi Haimo: "What? Tell Lin Luo about the color craze?"
When Xiao Shun heard this, he turned his back to Heimer and said a little sadly.
Xiao Shun: "Well, you know, I thought I was your close friend. Well, it seems that I overestimated myself. Sorry, ahem, I said this suddenly. Well, I'll leave now."
After Xiao Shun walked into the Pokémon Center, Heimer stood there stupidly.
(A small moment...)
