Chapter 373: The human spirit is very fragile (and it is easy to go crazy)
After the duel with Shinji, Heimer hadn't seen Shinji again in the past few days. Although, in Heimer's memory, Shinji's face has always been blurry.
However, Heimer can remember Shinji's voice very clearly, and this must be a loophole in this fuzzy memory device.
At this moment, Heimer looked at the three Poké Balls in his hand and couldn't help but sigh. . .
After joining Xinggongzhui, the relationship between Heimer and these newly captured Pokémon has always made Heimer feel very confused. And this confusion also comes from the current Heimer, who doesn't know what attitude he should use to treat these newly captured Pokémon in front of him.
A close friend? A tool? A colleague?
Obviously, a best friend is not an option, because Heimer knows that the path he will take in the future will be very dangerous, so he doesn't want to involve his best friend.
What's more, on this dangerous road ahead, Heimer is ready to die at any time, so he must not form a bond with her, must not form a bond with her...
As for the method of using Pokémon as a tool, Heimer found that he might not be suitable to treat Pokémon in this way. This is because Heimer can't just treat a living being as a tool. After all, this is not in a game.
Then in the end, the only option left is colleagues, a relationship between friendship and exploitation, and this is also the way of getting along that is closest to what Heimer had originally thought of.
Although, such a relationship is difficult, and Heimer did not have smooth sailing when he first started to implement it... However, this may be the most suitable way for Heimer now, as long as he thinks clearly about the things he needs to pay attention to when getting along with others.
Then, this kind of close yet distant relationship can be maintained.
At this time, after Heimer clearly summarized what he needed to do in his mind, he took out the Poké Ball of the Cursed Doll.
Afterwards, Heimer gently pressed the button on the Poké Ball. In an instant, the white light dissipated, and the cursed doll jumped out of the Poké Ball.
And now, after the cursed doll came out of the Pokémon Ball, Heimer and he looked at each other, and it seemed that both of them had something to say. . .
As for the cursed doll, although Heimer has been in a bad state these days because of nightmares, but since the duel with Shinji, Heimer has also discovered that the cursed doll's attitude towards him seems to have become much colder.
The reason why the cursed doll was cold towards Heimer was actually because he felt very guilty about losing the game. So, the cursed doll felt a little guilty when facing Heimer.
But then again, in fact, Jiegusa had similar emotions. After the match with Shinji, Jiegusa seemed to feel very ashamed of being defeated by the electric monster's moves.
Because of this feeling of shame, when Hai Mo originally wanted to talk to Jie Cao'er about sending him home tomorrow, he was rejected in person by Jie Cao'er.
Cresselia said that Jie Caoer meant that he would help Heimer win a duel before leaving. This would be in line with the agreement he had made with Heimer.
At this moment, after Heimer and the cursed doll looked at each other for a while, for some reason, they both became a little embarrassed.
(Hmm...this is so embarrassing. Otherwise, let me say something first...)
Chi Haimo: "Well... that cursed doll..."
In response to Heimer's call, the cursed doll nodded a little nervously.
(Well, calm down, Helmer, just make things clear.)
Chi Haimo: "Don't worry too much about the duel a few days ago. It's okay."
Hearing what Heimer said, the Cursed Doll nodded bitterly. It was obvious that although he responded to Heimer's words, he still cared a lot about it.
As Heimer looked at the sad expression on the cursed doll's face, he couldn't help but feel sad. However, no matter how sad he was, he couldn't hug the cursed doll as a close friend, which was an unshakable fact.
In the end, Heimer ended the conversation hastily, saying it was too late. . . For some reason, Heimer barely slept in the days after the conversation with the cursed doll. The reason was that the nightmares became stronger.
Every time Heimer fell asleep, a powerful nightmare would force him to wake up immediately. During these nights of constant waking, Heimer would have to give up sleeping and choose to stay awake. . .
Today, it was almost evening again. Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Heimer rubbed his tired eyes helplessly. At seven o'clock in the evening, he was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling sleepily.
Before long, sleepiness filled Heimer's eyes, and Heimer used his tiredness to create a small boat, and moved forward carefully along the river of goodnight at night.
Unfortunately, everything remained the same. Heimer had just closed his eyes and had not slept for long when he was awakened by a nightmare. The image of Old White rushing towards the vortex of mental power was still so clear, which made Heimer so sad.
To be honest, these days, Heimer felt like he was going crazy. The bloodshot eyes and the sound of his strong heartbeat were like an invitation from hell.
Faced with these unignorable pains, Heimer, how long can you hold on? . .
At this time, because he really couldn't sleep, Heimer came to the living room and poured himself a cup of hot water. Feeling the hot steam coming out of the mug, Heimer seemed to feel a little sleepy again. . . However, when he thought about going through those painful scenes again when he fell asleep, Heimer still patted his cheeks hard.
After all, falling asleep again and being woken up by a nightmare would make things even worse... If only there was a way to get a good night's sleep.
It’s a pity that I haven’t been able to contact Cresselia these past few days, otherwise I might have been able to have a good sleep through sweet dreams.
(Hmm... No, let's try again when we get back to the room...)
Thinking of this, Heimer was just about to go back to his room and try to fall asleep again when he ran into Scone who came out looking for something to eat.
Si Kang: "Bai? It's so late, can't you sleep again?"
At first, because of the device that blurred his memory, Heimer did not recognize Scone. However, after Scone spoke this sentence to Heimer, Heimer roughly confirmed from the tone of his voice that the person in front of him was Scone.
Chi Haimo: "Ah... um..."
Looking at Heimer's dark circles, Scone hesitated for a moment and then grabbed Heimer's arm and said.
Scone: "Follow me."
Faced with Scone's pulling, Heimer did not refuse. Perhaps it was because Heimer felt that he couldn't sleep anyway, so it wouldn't matter if he delayed a little longer.
So, Heimer and Si Kang came to his room in a daze. The moment Si Kang opened the door of his room, Heimer was stunned on the spot.
The reason for being stunned was not because the scene in front of him was so terrifying, but because, in Scone's room, there was a small hill made of many Pokémon dolls.
At this moment, the scene in front of him reminded Heimer of Ankang. At the same time, Heimer turned his head to look at Sikang's unforgettable face and orange hair, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind: could Sikang be Ankang?
However, not long after, Heimer immediately dismissed this idea, because the timbre of scone and ankang is very different. Although both have very young timbre, the timbre of scone is relatively more stable.
Moreover, when they went to rescue Si Kang with the cursed doll that day, Si Kang did not react at all to the cursed doll. If Si Kang was An Kang, how could he not have any reaction at all?
At this moment, Scone crawled into the mountain of dolls and turned back to say to Heimer.
Si Kang: "Come here, I'll tell you a way to fall asleep more easily."
In response to Scone's invitation, Heimer hesitated for a moment and then slowly approached the mountain of dolls. After confirming that there seemed to be nothing unusual, he and Scone went to the center of the mountain of dolls.
At this time, Heimer leaned in the arms of a huge Pikachu doll and asked Scone puzzledly.
Chi Haimo: "So, what method do you mean?"
Hearing Heimer's question, Scone hugged the Pokémon dolls around him into his arms and said.
Si Kang: "In the past, I was often too scared to fall asleep because I was afraid of being alone. But every time I fell asleep with these dolls, I always felt that I was not alone. So, in such an environment, I could always fall asleep quickly."
In response to Scone's words, Heimer smiled gently and said.
Chi Haimo: "Thank you, Scone, but I can't sleep because I'm not scared."
Hearing what Heimer said, Si Kang looked at him gently and asked softly.
Scone: "If you need someone to talk to, I'm right here."
Faced with Scone's tenderness, Heimer was about to say something, but unexpectedly, sleepiness suddenly came over him at this moment. Heimer leaned against the Pikachu doll and nodded slightly. After a while, he fell asleep leaning against the pile of dolls.
At this moment, looking at Heimer's unrememberable face, Si Kang smiled gently and said in a low voice.
Scone: "Goodnight, Bai."
Afterwards, Sikang took out the sleeping aromatherapy that he had hidden behind him. After placing the aromatherapy in a suitable place, he lay down among the dolls beside him and gradually fell asleep. . .
