Chapter 689: With Just a Thought
Chapter 689: With Just a Thought
Dr. Orلين, had vanished...
Xiao Qing stared blankly at the empty space before her, her mind filled with questions.
What had just happened?
Why had the past Dr. Orلين suddenly appeared in this place?
Totten Turtle... Was it because of Totten Turtle? Xiao Qing looked at the Totten Turtle, who appeared weary from the exertion of using some of its power, her mind swirling with confusion.
Could it be that Dr. Orلين had appeared here because of Totten Turtle?
Xiao Qing's face grew pensive.
She recalled the white-covered Zhu Zi Zhi Shu she had seen before, and a sudden realization hit her. Perhaps Mr. Naoki would know something! With this thought, Xiao Qing quickly retrieved her Rotom Phone from her pocket and called Mr. Naoki.
The call connected swiftly.
"Mr. Naoki, we just saw Dr. Orلين at the Dazzling Pool!" Xiao Qing exclaimed.
However, to Xiao Qing's surprise, Mr. Naoki didn't seem overly shocked by this news.
It was as if he had known about this event long before.
"Dr. Orلين..." Mr. Naoki asked, "What did she say?"
Xiao Qing nodded and proceeded to relay every detail of what had transpired and the words spoken by Dr. Orلين.
After hearing it all, Mr. Naoki's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Time and space held countless possibilities, and the past and future were not necessarily connected...
Xiao Qing observed Mr. Naoki's expression, and her mind flashed back to her visit to the farm. Mr. Naoki had given her the Zhu Zi Zhi Shu without hesitation and asked her to bring Little Tree to Kamono.
Xiao Qing tentatively asked, "Mr. Naoki, did you know beforehand that we would encounter Dr. Orلين here?"
Mr. Naoki was momentarily taken aback, looking at Xiao Qing with surprise.
This child was incredibly perceptive.
"I didn't think you'd figure it out," Mr. Naoki said with a bitter smile.
He didn't hide anything and shared what he had discovered at the Zero Zone Research Institute.
"After Dr. Orلين's passing, I found her notes at the Zero Zone Research Institute. She mentioned that while investigating the Greatbyss, she had traveled to another time and space and met a girl with a Gogoat and another with a Totten Turtle."
"So, when you brought that Gogoat to the farm, I knew the events in the notes were about to unfold."
Xiao Qing's suspicions were confirmed, and she couldn't believe it.
It was true...
The image of Pai Pa appeared in Xiao Qing's mind.
She deeply regretted not inviting Pai Pa to come with her this time.
That way, Pai Pa could have seen her mother again!
Wait, hold on!
At that moment, Xiao Qing realized something crucial.
If Dr. Orلين had traveled from the past to the present because of Totten Turtle, could this happen again?
If so, wouldn't Pai Pa be able to see his parents again? With this thought, Xiao Qing immediately shared her hypothesis with Mr. Naoki.
"Mr. Naoki, if we bring Totten Turtle here again, could we see Dr. Orلين once more?" Xiao Qing asked eagerly.
Mr. Naoki was momentarily stunned. "You mean...?"
But he quickly shook his head. "No, it's not possible."
"All along, for Pokemon and humans from different time and space to cross over, relying solely on Totten Turtle is insufficient."
"To traverse time, both time and space must simultaneously possess Totten Turtle or an immense amount of Tera Energy for the two to resonate and respond to each other."
"But Dr. Orلين and Dr. Forest were always in Area Zero!" Xiao Qing argued, where there was an abundance of Tera Energy!
"However, Xiao Qing, you must understand," Mr. Naoki said, looking directly into Xiao Qing's eyes, "If the past is altered, our future will also undergo drastic changes. We can't predict what will become of us."
"While parallel universes and other time and space exist, if we do this, Pai Pa in another time and space will also lose his parents."
"Moreover, are the Dr. Orلين and Dr. Forest in another time and space truly the parents of the Pai Pa you know?" Mr. Naoki emphasized.
"But..." Xiao Qing was at a loss for words upon hearing this.
All along, she had observed Pai Pa's behavior.
Although Pai Pa didn't speak much, he always tried to put on a brave face and look forward. Still, his heart must have been filled with sadness.
Losing parents is a painful experience for anyone.
Now that a glimmer of hope had appeared, Xiao Qing didn't want Pai Pa to continue enduring it alone!
But what else could be done?
Mr. Shizuru didn't misspeak.
Xiao Qing was earnestly pondering new possibilities.
Just then, she suddenly remembered something.
She abruptly looked up at Mr. Shizuru across from her and said, "That's right, Mr. Shizuru! If we don't change the past, can't we summon Doctor Orلين and Doctor Forest here?"
Mr. Shizuru was slightly taken aback. "What do you mean...?"
Xiao Qing's excitement made her words rush out, "I remember, Doctor Orلين and Doctor Forest encountered trouble at the Fourth Observation Station, and up until now, Cheif and the others haven't found their bodies."
"Although it's possible that they were subjected to a powerful energy impact and experienced annihilation, there might be another possibility..."
At this moment, Mr. Shizuru was completely stunned.
He knew that Doctor Orلين and Doctor Forest's bodies had not been found.
Ya Ci had also discussed this matter with him, explaining that their bodies had undergone annihilation due to an excessively powerful attack.
Annihilation, in this context, refers to the complete disintegration of the body under the impact of energy, leaving no trace in the world.
In the movie "I Choose You!," Ash experienced a similar phenomenon after enduring Marshadow's attack, causing his body to annihilate and disappear without a trace.
Initially, Mr. Shizuru had believed the same.
But now, after Xiao Qing's reminder, he suddenly realized there might be another possibility! A spark of determination flashed in his eyes.
He quickly turned, putting on his coat and summoning Gogoat, while instructing Xiao Qing, "Wait for me there, and Xiao Qing, inform Pai Pa! With his thoughts, Totten Turtle can better pinpoint the time of Doctor Orلين and Doctor Forest!"
Seeing Mr. Shizuru take action, Xiao Qing's face also lit up with a smile.
"Yes!" She nodded vigorously.
After hanging up the call, Mr. Shizuru entrusted the ranch's affairs and Yuki's care to the Ayumis.
Meanwhile, he directly took all the Totten Turtles from the ranch and rode Gogoat, rushing towards Kamono.
At the same time, in Kamono, at the summit of Hgeist Mountain, by the Dazzling Pool.
Xiao Qing quickly dialed Pai Pa's number.
After a few rings, Pai Pa's face finally appeared on the screen.
Seeing that it was Xiao Qing, Pai Pa's face lit up with a smile, and he happily greeted her, "Long time no see!"
"Pai Pa, come to Kamono quickly!" Xiao Qing exclaimed.
Pai Pa was taken aback, feeling a bit dazed. "Kamono? What's going on there? Did something happen?"
Xiao Qing didn't hide anything. "We just saw Doctor Orلين! Mr. Shizuru said we might be able to summon Doctor Orلين and Doctor Forest. He's already on his way here, so hurry over!"
Hearing these words, Pai Pa's expression changed, and he couldn't maintain his composure.
His grip on the Rotom Phone tightened, and his eyes instantly turned red. His expression was filled with disbelief, but deep down, there was a glimmer of hope.
"Is... is that true?" Pai Pa's voice trembled as if this news was as fragile as a dream, ready to shatter at the slightest touch.
"It's true!" Xiao Qing nodded confidently. "We're waiting for you at the Dazzling Pool!"
"I understand... I'm on my way!" Pai Pa's voice shook as he hung up the call. He wiped away the uncontrollable tears and, with a glimmer of hope, hailed a flying taxi and rushed towards Kamono.
Mr. Shizuru was the first to arrive in Kamono.
By the time he got there, Xiao Qing had already set up a temporary tent by the Dazzling Pool.
Xiao Qing leaned against Yandi, idly playing with its fur.
When they saw Mr. Shizuru approaching, the two of them immediately stood up excitedly.
"Mr. Shizuru!"
"Dad!"
Xiao Qing rushed over.
Mr. Shizuru caught his daughter and asked, "Did you contact Pai Pa?"
"Yes! I sent Gogoat to pick him up. He should be here soon!" Xiao Qing nodded.
Upon seeing the overwhelming number of Totten Turtles, Shizuru was utterly astonished.
"Totten Turtles, we're counting on you," Shizuru said earnestly, gazing at the multitude of Totten Turtles before him.
"Bogo!"
The Totten Turtles happily agreed, as long as they could help Shizuru, that was all that mattered!
After communicating with the Totten Turtles, Shizuru turned to face Pai Pa and said to him seriously, "Pai Pa, prove your longing to the Totten Turtles! Your longing will transcend time and space, bringing the two doctors from the Fourth Observatory to this place."
Gogoat had done this before, resonating with the future.
Tera Energy surpassed all attributes, and even time and space could be transcended. With enough longing, it was certain that such a feat could be accomplished!
"I understand!" Pai Pa nodded in agreement.
Time had erased the youthfulness and immaturity from his face. After experiencing the loss of his parents and living alone, Pai Pa had now become an adult.
He lifted his foot and, under the watchful eyes of Xiao Qing, Shizuru, and Little Tree, he slowly made his way to the Dazzling Pool. He raised his head and pleaded with the large group of Totten Turtles before him.
"Totten Turtles, please, bring my mom and dad back!"
Memories of the past flooded Pai Pa's mind.
Ever since his parents' passing, he had been tormented by self-loathing, wondering why his younger self had thrown a tantrum and not spent more time talking with his parents.
He had even resented Gogoat for feeling jealous of it.
The regrets of the past magnified, and then all of them transformed into longing for his mom and dad.
As Pai Pa's words fell, a tear slid down his cheek.
The Totten Turtles blinked at this scene.
Nothing happened.
Shizuru frowned slightly.
Xiao Qing's face was filled with worry.
The next moment, an incredibly powerful light burst forth from the Totten Turtles, almost shooting straight up into the sky.
Within the light, Pai Pa's longing transcended time and space, reaching the distant horizon.
Union Calendar 206, a certain month, day, and moment, Pantier Giant Pit, Fourth Observatory.
Venomoth's attack engulfed the entire observatory, and in an instant, the earth seemed to tremble.
"Boom!"
The stored energy in the research institute was hit, and a vast fire erupted immediately.
"Danger!" Sensing the peril, Dr. Forest hurriedly tried to protect his wife.
But the next moment, a rapid series of explosions pierced his eardrums.
A massive shockwave and flames swept over them.
"Gogoat!" Dr. Orلين called out while scanning the surroundings.
The next instant, he spotted the weakest Gogoat next to a pile of energy canisters.
As it was about to be hit, Dr. Orلين, without hesitation, rushed forward and shielded Gogoat with her body.
Dr. Forest also rushed over to protect his wife.
"Boom!"
Amidst the intense explosion, their figures were engulfed by flames and blasts.
In the moment before they were consumed, a massive energy transcended time and space, arriving here to protect the two doctors and the Gogoat beneath them.
The next second, the doctors' figures vanished from their original spots.
After an unknown amount of time, a scorched Gogoat slowly crawled out of the ruins of the burned-out research institute.
Dazzling Pool.
Pai Pa's eyes fixed on the dense light ahead.
Shizuru and Xiao Qing also stared intently at that spot, their hearts filled with tension.
Did it succeed?
Just then, two figures emerged from the light, appearing out of thin air.
They were...
Pai Pa burst into tears.
Unable to hold back any longer, he took a step forward and ran towards the two people he had been thinking about day and night.
"Dad, Mom!"
Hearing the familiar voices, Dr. Orلين and Dr. Forest, still in a daze, slowly raised their heads.
The next moment, they saw a figure running towards them, a figure they knew all too well.
It was Pai Pa, their child.
Pai Pa rushed into his parents' embrace, tightly hugging them.
Seeing their son suddenly become so close to them, Dr. Orلين and Dr. Forest were both slightly taken aback.
"Pai Pa, it seems you've been through a lot," Dr. Orلين said, reaching out to pat her son's head.
"What's going on here?" Dr. Forest's mind was filled with confusion.
The two doctors wanted to say something more, but the next moment, they spotted the group of Totten Turtles not far away, along with Shizuru and Gogoat on the other side.
Dr. Orلين was slightly taken aback, and then, as if realizing something, a smile appeared on her face: "It seems we've traveled through time and space once again!"
