“What conditions did Champion Dande offer you?”
“A Pokémon egg, and the quality will definitely not be low.”
“That’s good. After all, I just want you to go after catching some powerful Pokémon. So go ahead and keep your appointment. I’ll send a location to your phone, and you can come over then.”
Ruo Xi nodded and left in the opposite direction.
“A new world… I’m actually a little interested.”
…………
“I’m back.”
A Little Boy with light green hair opened a wooden cabin in the forest. The cabin was very clean inside, and although it showed some wear from age, it had a special beauty thanks to the surrounding green plants.
“Wind Spirit, what are we eating today?”
“Ling~ Ling~”
“Mm, got it.”
The Little Boy listened, then entered the kitchen. After a while, he brought out a plate of egg fried rice to the Wind Spirit, who was still floating above the table.
Upon seeing it, Wind Spirit immediately flew down, skillfully cupped the egg fried rice in its hands, and devoured it.
“Let’s see what I’ve got today.”
The boy opened his room, and the entire room had nothing to do with the natural atmosphere of the wooden cabin outside.
The computers and electronic devices filled the entire room, even giving the whole room a punk-rock style.
Most striking was the largest computer in the center, whose wallpaper was a photo of a middle-aged man and a Gardevoir. By the neat bed was a small table, and on it, besides the middle-aged man and Gardevoir, there was also a small green-haired child.
“Good afternoon, Mom and Dad.”
The Little Boy greeted the photo frame, then skillfully sat in his gaming chair, put on his headphones, and began typing on the keyboard in front of him.
It was astonishing that the Little Boy had nearly eight monitors in front of him, yet could skillfully operate them all with just one keyboard, consolidating all data onto the central main computer.
“What is this?”
The boy clicked on the sensitive word data named “Ruo Xi.” All calls containing the words “Ruo Xi” throughout the day would be intercepted and placed into this data file.
…………
Gui Ling walked down the surrounding streets, thinking about what he could prepare for his journey, when suddenly an anonymous call came in directly.
“Hello, did you dial the wrong number?”
“No, I’m Yin Xing.”
“Yin Xing? Oh, I remember now. Is there something you need to call me about?”
“I just intercepted an alert from the police station. Champion Dande reported seeing Ruo Xi. Is he with you now?”
“Huh? Ruo Xi just left me.”
“Sigh… that troublesome guy. Hurry and send some Pokémon to protect him now!”
“I hate it when people use a commanding tone with me…”
“Mr. Ghost Spirit, the Champion of the Kalos League Conference~ Be careful, or I’ll make your browser history fly everywhere~”
Upon hearing this, Gui Ling was instantly dumbfounded, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
“Oh, you should have said so earlier! Don’t worry, I’ll handle it perfectly!”
Gui Ling looked at the hung-up call, feeling speechless.
“How long has it been? Not even half a minute, right? He just opened my household registration? This probably isn’t even just opening an account; he probably just revealed all my information, didn’t he?”
“Alice: ‘Holy crap! Boxed!’”
Gui Ling sighed and threw out four Poké Balls. Darkrai, Marshadow, Gengar, and Banette were summoned.
“Ruo Xi has a tracker on him. I’ll give Gengar the earpiece. The four of you go protect that guy.”
The four Ghost-type Pokémon nodded, then immediately used Phantom Force and disappeared.
“Two Mythical Pokémon, and two of my ace Pokémon. This should be foolproof. So, next…”
Gui Ling pretended as if nothing was wrong, slowly turned a corner, and walked to a small alley. A person in black in the alley was about to leave, but a burning greatsword was directly placed against his neck.
“Secretly following me? State your identity, and your intention, or the sword and gun won’t be merciful.”
Feeling the scorching heat from Ceruledge’s greatsword, and the gun pressed against the back of his head, the person in black had no choice but to slowly raise his hands and take off his hat.
“Jenny? May I ask what wrong I’ve committed? To the point where the police are following me.”
“Excuse me, Mr. Ghost Spirit. We received a report that you seem to have had contact with a wanted criminal who stole fossils, so…”
“I don’t know about that.”
Gui Ling put on a very innocent expression and said with a smile.
“He’s just a researcher. I just went to him to get some information I wanted. As for the fossils you mentioned, I don’t know anything about them.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, you might have misunderstood, Ms. Jenny.”
Ms. Jenny didn’t agree with what Gui Ling said, but in this situation, she could only try to get away.
“Is that so? Then perhaps we investigated incorrectly. We apologize for disturbing you.”
After thinking for a while, Gui Ling still put down his gun.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, we’ll leave first. I still have an appointment to keep.”
Ceruledge retracted its twin blades and followed Gui Ling out of the small alley.
