Chapter 86: Fireworks and Lantern Festival in Luoyan Town (Under the Mask)
After Miss Junsha arrived in Luoyan Town, the color craze had disappeared. What made Heimer feel strange was that the man named Wuming had such powerful strength, but was so afraid of meeting the police.
In this way, the only information the police have about Color Fever is the surveillance video of the girl in the yellow skirt named Jasmine that was taken last time, and the photos and videos of Liuhe at the Twisting Contest. In other videos or photos, the faces of the target persons can hardly be seen.
(Hmm, so the girl named Jasmine was so afraid of Wuming because she was afraid that she would be purged by Wuming because she had been photographed before.)
In addition, with the help of Miss Junsha, the residents of Luoyan Town were successfully rescued. Previously, the color frenzy made everyone faint and locked everyone in their houses.
After checking with the police, they found no problems except that three Pokémon of different colors were missing. It was obvious that the disappearance of Pokémon was the work of Color Mania.
After Heimer finished taking the statements with Miss Junsha, he turned around and saw the people who had lost their Pokémon. The tear marks on their faces showed that they had been crying for a very long time.
Heimer lowered his head helplessly, then turned and went to the Pokémon Center.
(Is the large-scale collection of different-colored Pokémon really just for the sake of making money? Are all these separations just for the sake of making money...)
After Heimer arrived at the Pokémon Center, he heard from Miss Joy that the fireworks and lantern festival that had not been held in Luoyan Town before would be held tonight. Moreover, because of the fireworks and lantern festival, all the bathhouses in Luoyan Town would be open free of charge today.
Seeing this, Heimer decided to stay another night. After all, he had been through too many things recently and he needed to have a good rest and relax. Also, there were some things that he needed to stop and think about.
After having lunch with the Pokémon, Heimer returned to his room and had a good sleep.
At night, the sound of fireworks blooming in the sky woke Heimer up. Heimer picked up the pocket navigator and looked at the time. It was only seven o'clock and someone had started setting off fireworks.
Heimer rubbed his hair, put on his clothes, had dinner with the Pokémon, and went to the bathhouse to soak in the hot spring.
After taking a bath in the bathing area here, there is free coffee milk available, limited to three bottles per person and per Pokémon.
Because everyone knew that the forest lizard liked delicious food, they gave a bottle of their milk to the forest lizard, and the forest lizard happily drank it all.
Gyarados gave all the coffee milk he had received to the Forest Lizard, and in exchange, the Forest Lizard gave him all the tricolor dumplings that Heimer had bought for him.
The poisonous moth did not take a hot spring bath because it was afraid of getting its wings wet. Tianran Bird saw that the poisonous moth did not take a bath, so he did not take a bath either. He chose to go outside the bathing area with the poisonous moth to watch the fireworks while waiting for Heimer and the others.
Fire Chicken and Rice Spoon Snake were actually competing in the steaming room to see who could endure longer. After Rice Spoon Snake fell to the ground dizzy, Fire Chicken won the endurance competition.
After the result of the competition came out, Fire Chicken was not happy for long and fainted.
(Well, it seems like everyone is having a lot of fun...)
When they were about to leave the bathhouse, Heimer saw that everyone looked very sleepy, so he put everyone back into the Poké Ball and went to watch the lantern festival alone.
There were still few people on the streets of Luoyan Town. It seemed that because of the craze for colors, many people were still not in the mood to come to the fireworks and lantern festival.
Heimer got a Magikarp-shaped lamp for free. It was given to him by an uncle who sold lamps, saying that it was to soothe everyone's mood.
Later, while watching the fireworks and the stalls, Heimer bumped into a man wearing a ghost mask, with purple hair, black skin, a dark purple shirt that looked transparent on the upper body, and a pair of punk-style leather pants on the lower body.
Chi Haimo: "I'm so sorry."
Wuming: "It's okay, well, the lantern festival is so lively, so there are some collisions, it's normal, isn't it."
The more Heimer looked at this man, the more familiar he looked, as if he had seen him somewhere. Wuming saw Heimer's expression, took off his mask, and looked at him with a smile.
Chi Haimo: "Liuhe!"
Wuming: "Long time no see, Heimer."
When Heimer saw Liu He's face, he was so excited that he almost cried.
Chi Haimo: "I thought, I thought, I would never see you again."
Wuming: "Heimer, I heard about your color craze, are you okay?"
Heimer wiped his tears and answered happily.
Chi Haimo: "Well, don't worry, I'm fine. By the way, the question you asked me last time, I always wanted to tell you that our friendship has always been there."
Wuming: "Hahaha, so that's it. By the way, Heimer, I heard that you can actually offset Mr. Wuming's mental interference out of thin air. How do you do it?"
Hearing Liu He's question, Heimer spoke cautiously.
Chi Haimo: "Ah, I don't know either, it just suddenly clicked."
After hearing Heimer's answer, Wuming was about to say something else when he was interrupted by fireworks suddenly blooming in the sky.
Chi Haimo: "It's so beautiful."
Wuming asked a little confusedly when he heard the word "beauty".
Wuming: "Hmm? What is beauty?"
Chi Haimo: “Ah?”
Wuming: "Ahem, I mean, it is indeed beautiful."
Looking at the somewhat embarrassed "Liu He", Heimer said with a smile.
Chi Haimo: "Well, I don't quite understand how to define beauty. Well, for me, it's the feeling that makes me feel wow."
Wuming: "Wow, what is this again?"
Chi Haimo: "Well, like now!"
Heimer pointed at a bunch of blue fireworks exploding in the sky and said. Wuming looked up at the fireworks carefully under Heimer's instructions. For some reason, he felt an inexplicable happiness in his heart.
Wuming: "I think I understand what it is now."
Chi Haimo: “Hahaha.”
(Well, I don’t know what Liu He has been through. Just in case, I’ll take him to the police station. There, he can get the best protection.)
Just when Heimer was about to suggest to Liuhe that they go to the police station, a man approached him from behind with his arm around his shoulders.
Ankang: "Oh, little cutie, you're here. It took me so long to find you."
Heimer turned his head and saw a man with orange hair and a fox mask. This man was also wearing two Hanafuda earrings with red patterns.
The man pressed Heimer's shoulders hard and said with a cheerful smile.
Ankang: "I'm sorry, brother, I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
Wuming looked at Ankang indifferently, chuckled and said to Haimo.
Wuming: "Then I'll go first, Heimer."
Chi Haimo: "Wait a minute, Liu He!"
Heimer broke free from Ankang's hand, then ran forward to grab Liuhe, but at the next corner, Liuhe disappeared out of thin air.
Ankang: "Why are you running? There are so many people here. Don't bump into anyone else."
Looking at the man wearing a fox mask in front of him, Heimer spoke cautiously.
Chi Haimo: "Who are you?"
Ankang took off his fox mask while laughing, and said with a happy smile.
Ankang: "Why, you can't recognize me with a mask on?"
Chi Haimo: "Ankang? Why did you do that just now? Did something happen to Liu He?"
Ankang did not answer Heimer's question, but directly stuffed an apple candy into Heimer's hand.
Chi Haimo: "Hmm..."
Ankang: "Let's go, let's go shopping."
Chi Haimo: "Wait a minute, me."
Ankang asked immediately before Heimer finished speaking.
Ankang: "Apple candy, isn't it delicious?"
Chi Haimo: "Yeah, delicious."
When Ankang heard Heimer say the word delicious, he smiled and showed his fangs.
Ankang: "Well, let's go to the Lantern Festival."
(Well, it seems that he is not going to answer my questions. What happened? It seems that only by following Ankang can we have a chance to find out. Well, I didn’t bring the pocket navigator with me, so I can’t contact Miss Junsha. Well, forget it. Anyway, nothing should happen on the street. I will find a chance to contact Miss Junsha later.)
In order to obtain more information, Heimer accepted Ankang's invitation and accompanied him to the lantern festival.
