Chapter 95: Beautiful Scenery
At night in Changqing City, except for the urban area which was still brightly lit, other places were very dark. The same was true for Junsha's dormitory area. After greeting Miss Junsha on duty, Heath walked out of the dormitory area and headed towards the reservoir.
"It's so dark, Trainer, why is your flashlight so dim?" Zoroa complained while lying on top of Heath's head. Heath glanced at her. This little girl is really something.
Heath remembered that foxes are canines, so wouldn’t canines have very strong night vision?
"You thought it was a nuclear-powered flashlight? This thing is just an ordinary flashlight. It's good enough to be used in the forest at night." Heath said unhappily. This is not a game. The flashlight has unlimited power.
"Didn't you take a headlight in the dormitory?" Soraya said indignantly. Heath finally understood that this little girl was blaming him for not allowing her to stay in the dormitory to read novels.
Heath turned off the flashlight expressionlessly, then opened his backpack and took out the lantern from it. Then Heath looked at Zoroark with a 'kind' look.
"Are you sure you want me to turn on this? Zoroark, if I turn it on you'd better stare at the light carefully." Heath said with a smile. Zoroark's body trembled, but he still nodded, looking angrily.
Heath smiled and turned on the switch.
…
"Ring, it's dawn, time to get up and do morning exercises." Jun Shaling lay on the bed in the dormitory, then looked at the daytime outside the window and yawned.
"Eh?" Jun Shaling sat up in a daze. She remembered that she had just lay down, so how come it was already dawn?
…
"Ahhhhhh! My eyes! Close them quickly!" Zoroa covered his eyes in pain and lay on Heath's head, but the strong light still made him shed .
Heath turned off the lights with a smile, and the forest returned to its original appearance at night.
…
" Go to sleep . It must be that little Heath who went out with the electric dragon lantern." Jun Shaling looked at the extinguished daylight, yawned, and lay down on the bed again. Soon, the sound of regular breathing was heard.
"Hehehe~" Jun Shaling climbed down from the bed with a smile, then secretly lifted Jun Shaling's quilt and put her hand in with an extremely obscene expression. Then Jun Shaling gritted her teeth in pain and slowly pulled her hand out.
A mousetrap.
Jun Shaling gritted her teeth and took down the mousetrap. She really couldn't understand why Jun Shaling would put a mousetrap in her quilt when she was sleeping?
The next moment, Jun Shaling secretly lifted the quilt, intending to take a look at the layout inside the quilt, and then go on to act like a pastry chef and knead the dough.
But as soon as she lifted the quilt, Jun Shaling saw a crossbow. The lifted quilt pulled the string, and a crossbow arrow shot towards Jun Shaling. Jun Shaling was poked on the forehead, but fortunately it was a rubber arrow. Although it was painful, her life was not in danger.
"I'm such a girl..." Jun Shaling sat up cursing, and then she felt something liquid sprayed on her face. The next second, Jun Shaling fell to the ground and fell asleep, without any movement.
…
"Are you still opening?" Heath looked at Zoroark with a smile. This little guy dared to play tricks on him without even checking what brand the lantern was.
The electric dragon lantern is specially provided to the Junsha family. It has a large lumen and a wide illumination range. When it is turned on, it feels like being in the daytime, which not an exaggeration at all, and its battery life is also very strong.
"No, I was wrong. Please forgive me." Zoroya looked at Heath with tears in her eyes. The bright light for a moment stung Zoroya's eyes and made her cry.
"That's right." Heath turned on the flashlight with a smile and continued walking forward.
After a while, Heath passed through the grove and came to a hillside. In front of him was the Evergreen Reservoir, which provided daily water for all residents of Evergreen City. Miss Junsha was also stationed there.
However, Heath had not discovered any particularly great scenery so far, but the starry sky above his head was indeed very beautiful. Far away from Evergreen City, the impact of light pollution was very small, so Heath saw a starry sky similar to the Milky Way.
The dazzling brilliance made Heath feel much more cheerful, and he felt an inexplicable sense of relief. This was probably a feeling that people who had never seen the starry sky could not understand.
Especially for city dwellers, it is a pity to live in the city all their lives, because they will miss countless beautiful scenery. This is the meaning of tourism.
Tourism nowadays means taking photos at some scenic spots, queuing and squeezing in the crowds. Heath thinks this is very boring. In Heath's view, strolling on the grassland and lying down to see the starry sky are the real meaning of tourism.
"The starry sky is quite beautiful, but trainer, you don't come here just to see the starry sky, do you?" Zoroark looked at Heath suspiciously.
"How is that possible? I guess we have to walk to the reservoir." Heath waved his hand. Heath had not released Charmander and Farfetch'd yet, so they would have to climb the slope later.
Heath led Soraya to slowly climb the slope. After a while, Heath came to the edge of the reservoir and met Miss Junsha who was guarding the reservoir.
"Little Heath? Why are you here so late at night?" Jun Shaqiao looked at Heath in confusion and asked.
"I came up to see the scenery, Sister Qiao." Heath scratched his head and smiled. Basically all the Miss Junshas were older than him, and Heath just called them sister.
"You are quite good at finding places. The scenery here is indeed nice, but except for us, basically no one will see the scenery here. What a pity." Jun Shaqiao smiled and let Heath go up.
Heath walked to the reservoir curiously, and after climbing the last slope, he was shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him.
The stars in the sky were reflected in the water, and ripples slowly appeared on the water surface as the breeze blew. What shocked Heath the most was that the surface of the reservoir seemed to be glowing, with many spots of light, which looked very beautiful.
Heath curiously reached out his hand and touched the water surface. The light spots came to his hand along with the water he scooped up, and then fell with the water.
The black night sky blocked the water, making it look like Heath was holding the starry sky in the palm of his hand.
"What a... magnificent scenery." Heath looked at the scenery in front of him and exclaimed in admiration. It was a pity that Heath had never been here in four years since he came to this place.
"It's so beautiful..." Zoroa lay on Heath's head, looking at the scenery in front of him intoxicatedly. Such a beautiful night, such a quiet place, could it be...
Soraya looked down at Heath. She remembered that in a novel, the protagonist confessed his love in a place like this.
