A spirit descends, Gardevoir is my childhood friend?

Lin Xiaolin felt that the taxi driver was acting strangely today. Usually, taxi drivers are incredibly enthusiastic, asking all sorts of questions and chatting with Lin Xiaolin, and they always wear masks.

"Where are you going, young man?"

"Hey bro, why are you wearing a mask in this heat, going to the xxx Hotel on xxx Road?"

Lin Xiaolin asked curiously.

"Haha, I caught a cold, I just didn't want to infect you guys."

The driver then drove without saying a word, but Lin Xiaolin was happy to have some peace and quiet, so she leaned against the window and slowly fell asleep while watching the night.

As the vehicle moved along, the driver would occasionally glance at Lin Xiaolin through the rearview mirror to make sure that Lin Xiaolin wasn't paying attention to him.

He quietly pressed a button that a normal taxi doesn't have.

A faint sound came from inside the car; if you didn't listen carefully, you might mistake it for the sound of the air conditioner.

There seemed to be some kind of gas inside the car. Alarm bells rang in Lin Xiaolin's mind. He felt as if he had inhaled some kind of gas, and his superpowers were helping him resist it.

He opened his eyes a crack and looked at the driver, only to find that the driver was also glancing at him. He quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

"What should I do? Have I been kidnapped?"

Lin Xiaolin pondered in his mind, but he didn't have much time. He felt himself getting more and more dizzy. He was not very familiar with his superpowers and couldn't resist them.

Lin Xiaolin secretly touched the Poké Ball and used his senses to transmit the current situation to Xiaolan, instructing Xiaolan to come out and release Cinderace and the others as soon as he parked the car.

Chapter 123 Kidnapping?

There's no way around it; we're still in the car, and there are lots of vehicles around. If a fight breaks out on the highway, who knows how many innocent people will get hurt.

After giving his explanation, Lin Xiaolin felt as if his head was weighed down by a weight, and he immediately fainted.

The taxi was driving, but not towards its destination; it was heading out of the city.

It took several hours to drive out of the city, and after leaving Fengdu, we stopped the car in the woods.

The moon was high in the sky; it was already late at night.

At this moment, two people appeared from the darkness on both sides of the forest, each accompanied by their own spirit: a dragon king scorpion and a pumpkin monster.

Just as the driver opened the car door and the two people approached, a red light flashed from Lin Xiaolin's waist and Xiao Lan appeared beside him, grabbing the three Poké Balls behind Lin Xiaolin and tossing them.

Flame Ace, Heartscale Treasure, and Azure Blade Demon appeared simultaneously around the car.

"Oh no, third one! Run!" shouted the trainer next to Scorpion.

Before the third driver could react, Blazing Ace raised his hand and punched him several meters away, sending him crashing into a tree. Blood gushed from his nose, and he passed out.

"Dragon-tailed Scorpion! Venomous Fangs!"

"The Pumpkin Monster uses a Leaf Blade!"

The two elves simultaneously headed towards the taxi, flanking it.

Flame Ace and Blue exchanged a glance and nodded.

Xiao Lan and Azure Flame Blade Ghost fought against the Pumpkin Monster, Flash Flame Ace dealt with Dragon King Scorpion, and Heart Scale Treasure stayed by the side of the unconscious Lin Xiaolin.

The battle between the two sides is about to break out.

The trainer of Drapion originally wanted to quickly defeat Cinderace and then help his little brother, but Cinderace and Drapion were evenly matched, and Cinderace even had the upper hand over Drapion.

The trainer of the Dragon King Scorpion broke out in a cold sweat. He hadn't expected the monster to be such a tough opponent. Meanwhile, the Pumpkin Monster, who was evenly matched with him, was in a terrible predicament.

Although the Azure Flame Blade genius had broken through to the elite level and Little Blue had not yet learned any skills, the attribute advantage combined with the two-on-one situation meant that he was being beaten back step by step.

The battle lasted only ten minutes. After Pumpkin Monster was knocked away by Blue, Pumpkin Monster's trainer tried to run away, but Azure Blade Demon stood directly in front of him.

The cold, piercing gaze terrified him so much that he collapsed to the ground. The smell of urine emanating from his pants made him faint from fright.

Meanwhile, Cinderace was becoming increasingly aggressive, and Drapion was not going to last much longer. Seeing that the situation was not good, Drapion's trainer immediately tried to run away.

But Xiao Lan wasn't about to give him a chance; she knocked him unconscious with a single telekinetic attack.

Seeing his trainer being attacked, Drapion was extremely anxious, but Cinderace didn't give him a chance to be distracted, and directly hit him on the head with a Fire Punch.

The Dragon King Scorpion was knocked unconscious. At this moment, Xiao Lan picked up the two Poké Balls that had fallen to the ground, put the unconscious Pumpkin Monster and Dragon King Scorpion back into the Poké Balls, and locked them.

They also removed and locked the Poké Ball from the person who had initially fainted.

Azure Flame Blade Ghost threw the three of them together, and they lay sprawled on the ground.

Xiao Lan walked back to the taxi, placed her hand on the head of the unconscious Lin Xiaolin, and used her superpower to wake Lin Xiaolin up.

"Hiss!" Lin Xiaolin felt extremely dizzy after waking up. He shook his head, and it was Xiao Lan's healing energy that made him feel much better.

Lin Xiaolin got out of the car and saw three people lying on the ground with three Poké Balls. One of them was bleeding from all seven orifices, which startled Lin Xiaolin.

I checked the Poké Balls, and wow, there was a Lord-level Drapion, an Elite-level Pumpkin, and an Elite-level Pidgeot.

"Thank you so much, Cinderace." Lin Xiaolin looked at Cinderace gratefully. She hadn't expected these people to have a Lord-level Pokémon. If it weren't for Cinderace, she would have been in serious trouble.

"Heh." Flame Ace simply waved his hand, indicating it was no big deal.

Lin Xiaolin took out a few bottles of mineral water from the car and poured them directly into the faces of the two men.

As for that guy bleeding from all seven orifices, forget about him. Don't torture him. Lin Xiaolin doesn't even know if he's alive or dead yet. Lin Xiaolin even kindly had Xiao Lan use a Life Drop on him. It's fine if he dies, but don't die in front of me. It's bad luck.

"Wow!" The two of them jumped up immediately.

As soon as they arrived, they saw Azure Flame Blade Ghost Xiaolan and Flash Flame Ace surrounding the three of them.

The two immediately reached for their lower backs, only to find that there were no Poké Balls.

"Are you looking for this?" Lin Xiaolin fiddled with the three locked Poké Balls in her hand. The two of them immediately deflated when they saw them.

"Sir, we three only robbed people, we never killed anyone, please spare us three brothers."

The two immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, fearing that Lin Xiaolin would harm them.

"Tell me in detail, what happened?" Lin Xiaolin asked the two of them.

“The three of us brothers robbed people. The youngest brother would go to the city to pick up passengers, and then we would put sleeping pills in the car. Once the passengers were asleep, we would take them out of the city, rob them of everything, and then dump them on the edge of the city.”

The eldest of the three spoke with a mournful face.

Good heavens, I never expected there to be robbers in this big city, let alone that I would run into one.

Lin Xiaolin sat to the side, chatting with the group and asking them about their past experiences.

The only thing the two of them hadn't told Lin Xiaolin was what color their underwear was; otherwise, they answered any question.

A few hours later, the sky was getting darker and the moon was directly overhead. Lin Xiaolin glanced at the time and saw that it was already past three in the morning.

Just as the two were explaining things, the sound of police sirens came from afar.

The two of them immediately jumped up and wanted to run away, but seeing the three elves beside them, they obediently squatted on the ground.

A short while later, an off-road police car arrived and parked on the side.

Three men in security bureau uniforms got out of the car, carrying flashlights.

"Hello, I am a police officer from the Fengdu Security Bureau, badge number xxxxxx. Did you just make the call?"

The lead police officer immediately pulled out an identification document and showed it to Lin Xiaolin.

"Yes, it's me." Lin Xiaolin glanced at the ID and nodded.

"Okay, it's so late, let's go back to the police station first. Please cooperate with us to make a statement."

Lin Xiaolin recalled her spirit, picked up her black box, and got into the police car. The other three were all handcuffed and sat in the last row of the police car.

Luckily it was an SUV; a normal police car could seat seven people.

After another few hours of driving, Lin Xiaolin was dozing off in the police car. When she woke up, they had already arrived at the police station.

Three policemen escorted the three people into the police station, with Lin Xiaolin following behind.

The third brother was sent to the emergency room, the eldest and second eldest brothers were interrogated at the police station, and Lin Xiaolin gave a statement and then came out.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -.

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

Today's third update is here.

Chapter 124 A Day Trip to Dragon City

The police said they would notify Lin Xiaolin when the matter was resolved. Lin Xiaolin didn't care much about that, but when he heard there would be compensation, all three of them, who were wanted criminals, immediately beamed with joy.

This is like a pillow being delivered to your face when you're about to doze off! Just when you're broke, money is handed to you.

The eldest brother's wanted amount is two million Alliance Coins, while the second and third brothers' are both worth five hundred thousand.

The money will be transferred to Lin Xiaolin's account after the interrogation.

When Lin Xiaolin walked out of the police station, it was already dawn, around seven in the morning. She stretched, ate breakfast, and then took a car back to the hotel.

The taxi ride took two hours, and when Lin Xiaolin arrived at the hotel, she saw her father packing up.

Lin Xiaolin had been running away on his own for a long time, and had hardly returned to the hotel in Fengdu. Lin's father wasn't too worried about him, since Lin Xiaolin had been smart since he was a child and there was nothing to worry about.

"Dad, are we going to Longdu today?"
