MM Racing Chapter 121 Damn it! Those connections!
Chapter 121 Damn it! Those connections!
"You captured Lugia, you Tauros, you are this."
Ye Tian gave Li Luochen two thumbs-up and showered him with praise.
In all his years of life, before meeting Li Luochen, he had encountered only a handful of legendary Pokémon.
Registering all the Pokémon for Li Luochen basically meant encountering different "Eastern Region Form" Pokémon every time.
Now, we have the fourth one, a uniquely colored swan from the Eastern Region – Lugia!
To be honest, Li Luochen's luck is truly remarkable.
I just don't know how he managed to find them. Why can't he find even one or two?
Ye Tian was also very curious about the origins of Li Luochen's Pokémon.
But I was just curious and didn't ask any further questions.
"By the way... I might not be able to register your Pokémon anymore."
During the data collection process for Lugia, Ye Tian suddenly spoke.
Li Luochen's expression changed, and he quickly asked, "Ah? Minister Ye, are you being demoted?"
"?"
Ye Tian was taken aback by Li Luochen's words.
As the head of the provincial capital city alliance branch, he has made great contributions, and he hasn't done anything wrong. Why would the alliance demote him?
"I'm going to the capital, which is the headquarters of the alliance, to serve as a State Councilor."
Ye Tian patted Li Luochen on the shoulder and said, "A new Alliance branch manager will be transferred down from above. The handover ceremony should take place after the Truth Dragon Phoenix Cup ends."
"So, Minister Ye, which faction are you from?"
Li Luochen rubbed his chin, feeling that this sudden promotion was a bit strange.
"Um……"
Ye Tian remained silent.
Seeing Ye Tian's appearance, Li Luochen exclaimed in surprise: "My god! Isolated and helpless, isn't that a demotion in disguise?"
Ye Tian: "??"
"Can't you say something nice? It's because the Alliance remembers my contributions in uploading content and wants to give me a better chance, so they transferred me to an important position at Alliance headquarters. This is a good thing, don't think too badly of it."
Ye Tian said earnestly, "Don't worry, if you ever have any thoughts about joining the department, just come to me."
"Then forget it."
Li Luochen scratched his head: "If I can't make it in Rongcheng, I might go to the Kanto region to rely on my uncle, go to the Hoenn region to find my good brother, or go to the Sinnoh region to live off a woman."
Ye Tian: "???"
Damn it! Those connections are unbelievable!
Ye Tian then realized that Li Luochen took over the Minrong Martial Arts Academy simply because he didn't want the family fortune to be lost in vain.
If Li Luochen really wanted a comfortable life, he would have gone to Suzuran University in the Sinnoh region long ago, or gone with his uncle to arrest Team Rocket.
what……
What the heck is the Hoenn region?
If one could say that the uncle could be associated with Mikey.
But why say find a good brother?
Ryukia?
Isn't it obvious at a glance that they are siblings?
"My good brother is Daigo, otherwise why would Devon's branch be located in the East Asia region?"
"Oh, that's normal... a Gengar!"
Ye Tian was at a loss for words.
Li Luochen knew he was leaving, so he revealed all the shocking scenes that were going to happen in the future, right?
"It's alright. Minister Ye, if you ever find yourself in a difficult situation, you can always rely on me."
Li Luochen's expression was quite serious when he said this.
Seeing this, Ye Tian nodded subconsciously and said, "Okay."
Then, Li Luochen retrieved Lugia and left the Alliance branch.
"Minister Ye, then we'll meet again someday."
Li Luochen's figure gradually disappeared into the distance.
Ye Tian uploaded Lugia's data.
Not long after, a call came from Beijing.
"Ye Tian... are you kidding us? How could anyone possibly capture a legendary Pokémon, especially a Lugia!"
The incredulous voice of a high-ranking member of the alliance came from the other end of the phone; his tone was quite urgent and he sounded very excited.
"When have I ever lied to you? There are some things you shouldn't ask; just report them directly."
"Alright... You should be transferred to the capital in a few days, right? There have been disagreements within the alliance recently, and I'm afraid you'll have to choose sides as soon as you arrive."
"Won't this affect Fujian Province? Luo Chen's dojo is just starting out, and I don't want him to get involved in this mess."
"Ye Tian, what are you worried about? Those higher-ups aren't idiots. If Li Luochen gets involved, there's a high chance that Yu Longdu will seize the opportunity to launch an attack, leading his so-called 'Fast Dragon Legion' to storm in. Wouldn't that mean the other side would reap the benefits?"
"Too."
Ye Tian was a shrewd person and immediately understood what the other party meant: "So the alliance is just preparing to send people to protect us secretly, and not care about anything else?"
"More or less. Fujian Province is currently lacking a true leader. The higher-ups believe that, given Li Luochen's current interpersonal relationships, he is quite suitable for this position."
Ye Tian pondered for a moment: "So, the person being connected will be him?"
The man on the other end of the phone said helplessly, "Most likely, but I can't draw a definitive conclusion. Okay, when you come to headquarters, I'll explain it to you in detail."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Ye Tian put his phone in his pocket, looked in the direction Li Luochen had left, and remained silent for a long time.
……
……
Lucia's registration went more smoothly than Li Luochen had imagined.
There were no classic online novel tropes involving a face-slapping scene.
hiss……
Thinking about it this way, Li Luochen realized that the only orthodox villains he had encountered along the way were Team Rocket.
The siblings, Shi Xintong and her brother, are just plain delusional; they don't even qualify as villains.
I wonder when the "auspicious dragon and phoenix" they're talking about will arrive.
I did see the dragon, also known as Rayquaza.
Phoenix, also known as Phoenix King, has only managed to pick up a single feather from that Radiant Flame Emperor.
I also heard a question from the other party.
That's right, that question is a bit abstract and not easy to answer.
"Protagonist! Running out at night, did you stumble upon some kind of destiny?"
As Li Luochen pondered, a familiar voice came from not far away.
Upon closer inspection...
Hey! Shi Xintong, the amazing siblings!
However, her brother Shi Wen was not there.
As Shi Xintong approached, Li Luochen finally got a clear look at her attire.
Wearing a black JK mini skirt and white stockings that just went past her knees, she looked quite cute.
It's a pity that I got so addicted to novels and anime.
"I'm just registering and heading back. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Li Luochen waved his hand and released Charizard, preparing to return to the gym.
"Wait a moment!"
Shi Xintong called out to Li Luochen, "Does your dojo still have rooms? If so, would it be convenient for me to rent one? Price is not an issue!"
In the Donghuang area, many dojos functioned more or less like hotels, as was the case with the former Minrong Dojo.
Therefore, Li Luochen did not consider any other possibilities regarding Shi Xintong's problem.
He shrugged and replied, "There might be some rooms available in a while, but there aren't any at the moment."
This wasn't him lying to Shi Xintong; he was telling the truth.
The dojo doesn't have many guest rooms to begin with.
Mingyi, Liuqia, Zhulan, Mikoli, and Shilan—these five people occupied five rooms.
"But why did you suddenly decide to stay at the dojo? I remember that the rooms in those star-rated hotels are much better than those in the dojo, right?"
"Hehe~ I was just thinking that since 'Auspicious Dragon and Phoenix' is about to arrive, I was hoping to get some of the protagonist's good fortune and witness it with my own eyes!"
Shi Xintong looked around and saw that there were still quite a lot of people, but she didn't want others to know what she was about to say, so she lowered her voice and said:
"Shall we go back to your dojo together, or do you want to find a secluded spot to chat privately? A back alley, a hotel, anything is fine, I'll go with whatever you say."
