Pokémon development strategy

Suddenly, the slender hand on the chest reached up and grabbed Shen Qi's throat. At the same time, he was kicked twice behind the knees and his body fell down involuntarily.

One leg on each side was pressing on Shen Qi's back, and there was a dagger crossed on each side of his neck.

In just two or three seconds, Shen Qi's treatment dropped from a distinguished guest to a prisoner.

"No... isn't that right?"

Because he was pressed to the ground, Shen Qi's voice was a little dull, "What did I do wrong? I'm a good person!"

"You did nothing wrong, you are such a good fellow!"

When the two girls pulled Shen Qi up, they had already handcuffed his hands behind his back, so Shen Qi had no way of escaping.

In just this short period of time, Shen Qi discovered that the attire on both sides had been changed into tight ninja uniforms.

Apart from Axing, there are no other female ninja trainers in the game. They are obviously members of the ninja faction related to Axing.

The clothes are pretty nice...

No!

"Why are you arresting me?!"

"Let's talk about it after we meet the owner of Xing Pavilion!"

Taking the elevator up, when the electric door opened again, the decoration style inside had changed to a quaint wooden structure.

Deep in the corridor was a room the size of a classroom. On the wall at the end of the main entrance hung a splash-ink landscape painting. Ah Xing, dressed in training clothes, was sitting cross-legged on a platform that resembled a couch.

"Master Xing, Shen Qi is here."

"Well." Ah Xing opened her sharp eyes, "You don't need to tie him up."

The female ninja's action of arresting Shen Qi was not an order issued by Ah Xing, but at this time she did not blame her subordinates too much, which also showed an attitude that was opposite to Shen Qiyao.

Sand.

After receiving Ah Xing's order, the straw rope tied around Shen Qi's wrist was finally untied.

"Is there any misunderstanding between us?"

Shen Qibai was puzzled.

Even if the letter was forged by someone else, Ah Xing should have called Shen Qi to discuss and investigate who was responsible for the prank.

Why are the attitudes so confrontational?

"Misunderstanding? It's been a long time since anyone has challenged me to the extent of targeting a gym leader."

"Targeting the gym owner? Challenging?!"

This means that it is not a usual gym assessment, but a one-on-one challenge with the gym leader, which has the obvious implication of kicking out the gym.

"When did I challenge you?"

"Isn't this the letter you sent?"

Ah Xing took out the piece of paper, on which it was clearly written that racing driver Shen Qi had learned that there were many suitable routes for racing in the hunting area outside Qianhong City, and he wanted to compete with Ah Xing.

The text also mentioned that Axing's Pokémon was defeated twice, and he had to take Aju's place to teach Axing.

A-Ji is A-Xing's father. He travels around the world to practice Buddhism, leaving his daughter to look for him everywhere. She also has to support the Qianhong Gym at such a young age.

Shen Qi dared to write this in the letter, not only targeting the leader of the Qianhong Gym, but also rising to the level of a senior or even an elder teaching a junior.

You know, Shen Qi is only 16 years old.

"No, no! How could I possibly write something like that? That's not what was originally written on the paper!"

There were only about twenty words on the letter, inviting Shen Qi to the Qianhong Gym to discuss racing. How did it turn into Shen Qi challenging Ah Xing in such a high-profile manner?

Ah Xing raised an eyebrow, "Okay, if you say it's not you, come and copy the content and compare the handwriting."

Shen Qi was about to agree when he felt a cold sweat on his back. He looked closer and saw that the handwriting on the note was exactly the same as his own.

What’s even more terrifying is…this note has not been swapped.

On the way from Jinhuang City, Shen Qi folded the paper and put it in a book.

At this time, the original crease of the paper, the deep center line folded in the book, and the corner of the paper that Shen Qi accidentally tore when he took it out all matched.

It was the same piece of paper, but the content had changed. It was now a challenge letter written in Shen Qi's handwriting.

Chapter 280 Splitting the Symbol

"I...someone imitated my handwriting on it."

Shen Qi's words of rebuttal seemed a bit hollow, both in tone and content.

"Humph, you dare to send a letter of challenge, but you chicken out at the last minute. You are really despicable."

The female ninja who escorted Shen Qi here had a look of contempt in her eyes.

Ah Xing didn't have too much strong contempt in her eyes, and there was more disappointment in her eyes.

I once noticed this somewhat special young man. Even if he really overestimated his own abilities in challenging others, he deserves encouragement if he loses after fighting seriously.

But he was the one who took out the challenge token, and he even said he would teach his daughter a lesson on behalf of his father, but now he is starting to give in...

Ah Xing guessed that Shen Qi must have gotten drunk one day and boasted that he had defeated the gym leader of Qianhong City. His drinking buddies started to make fun of him, and he took advantage of his drunkenness to write a letter of challenge.

No matter how extraordinary your talent is, it will be wasted if you live an immoral life and have bad drinking habits.

There were two "bang" sounds from the wooden structure, and two objects of similar shape and color fell on the wooden floor.

It is a pink badge split in two. The prototype of the pink heart-shaped peach is actually based on the shape of cherry blossoms.

Shen Qi subconsciously thought that Ah Xing was so angry that she broke the badge, but the badge was made of a special hard mineral, breaking it would be too exaggerated, and the cut was smooth, so it would definitely not produce that kind of effect.

It would not be right to split the badge of the Crimson Gym in half with one sword. You can't vent your anger on the badge of your own gym.

"You are quite knowledgeable." Ah Xing's tone finally became a little angry, "You know this kind of challenge method of cutting off the opponent's symbol."

In ancient times, if one wanted to fight the enemy to the death, there would be similar high-level decision-making methods, such as imitating an enemy general's flag, cutting it in half and sending it over, or imitating a family emblem, token or other representative object and destroying it, and sending it along with the challenge letter.

What Ah Xing received was a highly realistic version of the pink badge. If you pull the left and right parts of the cherry blossom up and down with force, it will break into two halves along the flat cut.

All the evidence was clear, and the meaning was clear, so Shen Qibai had no way to defend himself.

"Hunting Zone Raceway, right?" Ah Xing said coldly, "In the next one or two days, I will ask other organizations to prepare a regular race. The relevant information will be kept secret from me, and I will participate in it fairly."

This passage only mentioned the regular season and Ah Xing's participation, but did not say anything about Shen Qi. The implication was that Ah Xing was already very disappointed with Shen Qi, and that if she came, she should fight honorably, and if she didn't come, she should leave in disgrace and never show up again.

"I will attend."

Shen Qi knew there was no need to argue... More importantly, we are in a hurry to find a regular season record.

You can arrange one right when you come to Qianhong City, and it’s a sure win.

Ah Xing didn't want to delay this matter for too long, and said that the regular season would be organized in a day or two, which meant that it would be impossible to have a high-level points system. The competition would be more casual and would mainly be a duel with Shen Qi.

For Shen Qi, winning or losing doesn't matter. If there is no strong opponent, just strive for the top three and get a high-quality finishing record. This way, there is only one game left!

However, we still have to be wary of people who are secretly plotting conspiracies, as we can't guess what the mastermind behind the scenes is trying to do.

Having agreed to participate in the regular season, Ah Xing didn't want to continue watching Shen Qi.

It's no wonder she's petty. She's worked so hard to take over the Qianhong Gym on behalf of her father, and now a young man jumps out and says he wants to teach Ah Xing a lesson on behalf of his father.

Who wouldn't be angry after hearing this?

Outsiders who heard this wanted to beat Shen Qi, let alone Ah Xing herself.

After leaving the Qianhong Gym, the ordinary staff outside had no idea what Shen Qi had been through, and they greeted him warmly and saw him off.

Shen Qi's response was inevitably a little stiff.

This matter is really too outrageous. If it were a third party, it would be the challenge letter submitted by Shen Qi, and he used some exaggerated words and even imitated the pink badge and split it.

But the reality is really not like that…it’s really too outrageous.

Especially since it is clearly the same piece of letter paper, why are the handwriting and content on it different?

With the current level of technology, it is not difficult to erase the words on the paper and write again. The difficulty lies in the fact that the letter paper has been with Shen Qi from beginning to end. He opened it and read it when he came to the Qianhong Gym today. The content was normal, and then it was passed to Ah Xing.

Therefore, the opportunity for the mastermind behind the scenes to change the nature of the content is extremely rare, leaving almost no room for maneuver.

In addition, he had to practice Shen Qi's handwriting.

Apart from the homework at Elf High School, Shen Qi would at most write a few words when signing the driver's commitment when participating in competitions. Modern people have fewer opportunities to write than before, and they do more typing.

Where did the mastermind learn Shen Qi's handwriting from? And it was more than 70% similar.

From this point of view, the one who has the best chance of taking action is Ah Xing, but she would not make things difficult for Shen Qi by doing this.

Her father's disappearance has always been Ah Xing's concern, so even if she wanted to play a prank, there was no need for her to use that kind of language in the book.

All the signs are bizarre, and the most outrageous thing is the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes.

What can be achieved by provoking a fight between Shen Qi and A Xing?

Suppose the second-in-command of an organization has wanted to be the boss for a long time, it is indeed possible for him to bring in external enemies to defeat the boss and give himself the opportunity to take the position.

We can’t look for Shen Qi either.

There is a ninja in the Qianhong Gym who wants to get promoted, but Shen Qi can't beat Ah Xing.

Even if there is an expert among the participating drivers, and his ranking is better than Ah Xing, it is meaningless since he is not the challenger who has sent a letter of challenge, so it is meaningless.

"Ugh..."

Shen Qi felt that his mental health index was about to plummet, so he decided to eat first.

During the entire Crimson Gym incident, Chansey and Toto stayed in the Poké Ball and had no idea that such a big change had taken place.

I discussed it with them...but I couldn't come to any conclusion.

Jilidan's mind is too simple, Duoduo is smart, but he is far behind in interpersonal relationships and human intrigue.

Not to mention his own Pokémon, Shen Qi couldn't even think of who to discuss this matter with.

It was not until the next morning that Shen Qi discovered a text message on his mobile phone, signed by the Qianhong Gym.

The staff who were unaware of the truth received an order from their superiors and sent a message to Shen Qi using the official number, informing him that registration for the regular season would begin today and the competition would start the day after tomorrow.

The speed is indeed fast and reasonable.

There is no doubt that Ah Xing has strong local connections, and this isn't a big competition, so it's easy for her to apply to the authorities for a wild track as a racetrack.

The less public roads are involved, the faster the approval process will be, and the race can start with 10 to 15 drivers signing up.

Shen Qi chose to sign up without hesitation.

Even if there hadn't been the inexplicable challenge incident before, Shen Qi came to Qianhong City and found that there was a regular season. At this critical juncture when the records needed to be perfected, he still had to sign up.

Ah Xing organized a competition and Shen Qi signed up to participate.

Everything should be as the manipulator behind the scenes wishes.

What on earth does he want to do?

Shen Qi has no connections in Qianhong City, or in other words, there are no big names among his close friends, so now he can only rely on himself.

After breakfast, Shen Qi walked towards the Qianhong City Police Station.

Oh... I've checked in at many police stations.

Chapter 281 Reporting to Junsha

Red City Police Department.

Shen Qi first contacted Junsha from the 6th Island, and then through her found his distant 33rd cousin, one of the Junshas from Qianhong City.

"Ms. Junsha..."

"Shen Qi, right?"

In the interrogation room, Junsha and Shen Qi sat opposite each other.

"I heard a distant cousin praise you."

"Hey, it's nothing. I was a Pokémon assistant and only got 3th place in the T13 finals. This kind of result is only interesting in the Seven Islands in the Outer Sea, but it's nothing in the Kanto region."

"She said you went to the cooling-off room five times in four consecutive days, which is the best record in the Kanto region."
