Chapter 57 Daigo's Call
Chapter 57 Daigo's Call
Ten minutes later, Crimson was escorted into the police station.
Upon entering the gate, the two police officers escorting him stopped, and Chi Hong was also forced to stop.
As Officer Jenny was escorting the officers, she noticed the other two officers were about to leave and asked them a question out of curiosity.
"Where are you going? Another new case?"
One of the female officers, who was also a Officer Jenny, looked utterly helpless.
"Yeah, a scammer came to the arena, selling these so-called ancestral energy cubes."
"It's basically just a regular energy cube sprinkled with fluorescent powder and sprayed with flavor enhancers."
"They claim it has special effects or something, and then sell it for forty or fifty times the price of a regular energy cube."
"They just talk a good game and make all sorts of promises without ever verifying them, yet so many people still believe them."
"Sigh, I already know that in a couple of days I'll have to go door-to-door to do anti-fraud campaigns again. I'm so tired."
Several police officers began to shake their heads and sigh in unison, seemingly lamenting that their anti-fraud campaign had been in vain.
At first, Crimson just listened to it as a story and even laughed out loud.
Who would be so foolish as to spend dozens of times more money on energy cubes with unknown effects...?
The previous emotions had long since subsided, and now, standing in the calmest place, my sharp intellect had once again taken over.
His mind raced, and he realized the situation seemed very familiar. His bared teeth gradually retracted.
Energy cubes, an heirloom, with explosive special effects? Hold on a minute.
Crimson took a deep breath and asked.
"Excuse me, could you tell me what that scammer looked like? Male or female?"
The other party saw that Chi Hong was being escorted in, but did not refuse to answer his questions.
"It's a girl in a black dress, she doesn't seem very old, what's wrong?"
Hearing this, Chi Hong's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died, and her face turned ashen.
"It's nothing. I originally thought that even if I was arrested as a suspect for harming Pokémon, it wouldn't be a big deal."
"Although the experience was a bit unusual, at least I could sleep in a bed and still fall asleep."
"But after hearing your description, I can't sleep."
The only consolation is that I only bought it for 20 times the price, while those people bought it for 50 times the price.
Not too much of a loss...bullshit!
All the money I earned from these past few days of hard work and consecutive victories has vanished in an instant, leaving me back where I started before the adventure!
Recalling how Azure had sweet-talked her before, she realized she had been completely bewitched.
His flushed face began to turn red, and his toes started digging into his sneakers.
This matter must absolutely not be known to anyone else, absolutely!
Feeling extremely embarrassed, Crimson secretly made up her mind.
He was then escorted into an interrogation room by two police officers and interrogated.
Crimson began to explain in detail.
I encountered this light-colored Pikachu by chance while participating in a volunteer activity today.
I had never been here before; this was my first time entering the Evergreen Forest.
He then produced his trainer's license and asked the police to check his past whereabouts.
Ten minutes later, Officer Jenny returned, her face flushed, holding a bright red Trainer's License.
He handed it to Chi Hong with both hands and bowed, saying, "I'm very sorry, I misunderstood you."
"So you really are a kind-hearted young man, and a trainer from Pallet Town at that."
Officer Jenny apologized as she used the device to unlock the Crimson Ball and return it to Crimson.
Back at the police station front desk, Natsuno heard the officers there still receiving a constant stream of reports.
It's an energy cube scammer; he's moved his operations and we can't catch him for now.
To keep the fact that she had been scammed a secret, Chi Hong suppressed her urge to report the crime.
Even if it means death, this must be kept a secret!
His crimson eyes blazed with a fire more intense than any battle, and he pulled out his phone to send a message to Natsuno.
At this moment, Natsuno, who had just learned the whole story from Azure's message, was laughing heartily.
I've noted down the embarrassing history of the person I'm fighting against, hehe.
At the same time, Natsuno was also filled with doubt.
Why did Azure, who was clearly afraid of herself, send Crimson the details of how she tricked him?
While I was thinking, Crimson had already sent a message informing me of the situation of Asuka and the group of Pikachu at the hospital.
As expected, Asuka's condition was as expected; the other Pikachus will need three more days of treatment to fully recover.
Natsuno was pondering the problem of Shallow Hill.
You should know that her color is so rare, even rarer than heterochromia, that it is extremely attractive to others.
Moreover, Red has already been taken to the Pokémon Center, so it's possible that it has already been noticed.
If it cannot be properly resettled and continues to be left in the forest, it will only attract various kinds of people who will harass it.
Natsuno felt extremely awkward as he gently patted her forehead with his hand.
Then, a Fengyuan Stone enthusiast suddenly called.
Although curious that the other party wasn't digging for rocks, Natsuno quickly answered the phone.
"Natsuno, good evening. This is Daigo. I apologize for calling so abruptly."
"Daigo, I was just about to look for you. What's up? Can you build it using the blueprints I gave you?"
"Ah, that's exactly why I called today. Our engineers are really worried about it."
Daigo's voice was filled with surprise and trepidation.
"In fact, the first prototype machine has already been built according to the blueprints, but problems arose during the testing phase."
"We don't know whether the detected gene sequence is complete or whether the machine meets the standards."
"So if you have some free time, please come over and take the test in person."
"The location is in Dark Grey City. When would be a good time for you to come?"
Daigo's words surprised Natsuno, who blurted them out without thinking.
"Let's do it tomorrow. I happen to be in Changqing City next door. That's great. Moving the machines won't be a problem either."
"Send someone to the Changqing Hotel tomorrow morning, I don't know the way."
Daigo nodded: "Okay, I've got it. I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Natsuno suddenly realized what was happening.
wrong!
Daigo's efficiency is too high, it's disrupting my plans a bit.
His original plan was to stall Sakaki's side for now, using the excuse that the machine hadn't been made yet to delay the experiment.
During this time, find a way to locate the Dream Fossil, steal it, and then make a quick getaway.
Well, let's just take it one step at a time. We definitely need a testing device.
Natsuno turned to look at Aya, who was enjoying the food delivered by the hotel with gusto, her eyes narrowed into slits.
With the testing instrument as a foundation, it becomes easier to continue researching subsequent repair instruments.
The fully charged Xiaoyuan rolled from the middle of the bed to the edge, giving Xia Ye a bumping salute that made his buttocks ache.
As for Xiaoyuan, her chain of mutations is probably quite complex.
If the code can run, don't change it yet. We'll see how it goes later. Let's get Xiao Cai sorted out first.
While waiting for Xiaocai to eat, Xia Ye replied to the various chat messages that had piled up.
Dr. Akihabara mentioned that the online investigation seems to have made some progress.
However, further investigation would likely involve issues of citizen privacy.
The headquarters is actively holding meetings to discuss the matter, and they told Natsuno not to be impatient.
Xia Ye wasn't in a hurry. After Xiao Cai finished eating, it was time for the three of them and their two dogs to play games together in a peaceful and happy atmosphere.
Led by Zhu Lan, they easily won five consecutive victories, and Xia Ye, satisfied, went to sleep with Xiao Cai and Xiao Yuan.
The next day, Natsuno stood with two Pokémon at the Devon Corporation headquarters in the Kanto region, looking at Steven with curiosity.
"Why is it in Dark Grey City?"
