Pokémon's Lord of Fear

After leaving the Baocai Market Management Office, Teng Shu told Zoroak about the place of work and the working hours every day. Then he asked Zoroak to go to the company to familiarize himself with the work content, while he returned home with the old housekeeper.

Teng Shu planned to go and see if the cameras he had set up earlier had captured anything.

After all, the fear sugar cubes have been lost twice, which directly caused Teng Shu to lose a lot of fear value. If this problem is not solved, it will be very troublesome.

Teng Shu hurriedly carried Xiao Q back to the bedroom, and saw the empty table, and the sugar cubes on it were gone.

"As expected." Teng Shu smacked his lips. The guy who stole the sugar cube was quite courageous. He dared to take it so blatantly. He was too arrogant.

Teng Shu found the camera he had placed earlier, then connected the camera to the computer, then turned on the mobile device and found the stored video.

Teng Shu bought a camera that can automatically store some of the footage. It’s a bit more expensive, but it’s also relatively more stable.

Soon, Teng Shu saw himself, and then he left the room in the picture. The whole room came to a standstill. If it weren't for the fact that the camera's own time on the screen was still changing, Teng Shu would have thought that the picture was stuck.

Teng Shu watched patiently, and after more than an hour, Teng Shu finally discovered something unusual.

The camera lens flickered for a moment, and then the sugar cube disappeared instantly.

"?" Teng Shu slowly raised a question mark. What was going on?

Teng Shu pressed the rewind button and then slowed down the speed.

But even so, the picture still took 0.5 seconds to return to normal, and when the picture returned to normal, the sugar cube on the table was gone.

"Is it still impossible to catch him like this? I can't just stare at him myself? And even if I stare at him myself, I may not be able to see clearly." Teng Shu was a little confused, and there was nothing interesting to read afterwards.

After all, the sugar cubes are gone.

"Xiao Q, when I gave you the sugar cube before, did you feel the breath of any companions?" Teng Shu asked while hugging Xiao Q, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.

After all, even the overlord Gengar didn't notice anything unusual at the time, so how could Little Q possibly notice it?

Sure enough, Little Q shook his head.

"Oh, who is it?" Teng Shu sighed, and he took the mouse and planned to delete the video.

But just when he was about to delete it, he suddenly found that the video picture had changed.

The screen suddenly went black, and then a pair of dark red eyes appeared in the screen, and above these eyes, there was something golden. Teng Shu saw a hint of teasing in these eyes, and then the picture in the camera suddenly appeared in Teng Shu's bedroom.

The scene didn't change after that until Teng Shu returned to the room with Xiao Q in his arms, then came over and picked up the camera.

"Latina?" Teng Shu's pupils dilated slightly. Although the camera image quickly switched to the bedroom at the end, Teng Shu still vaguely saw the figure of that Pokémon.

The huge physique and the particularly distinctive appearance both proved the other party's identity.

"Giratina is also a Pokémon with ghost and dragon attributes. No, what is this Fear Cube? You might as well change your name to Ghost Trap Candy." Teng Shu realized.

No wonder Gengar didn't notice anything, the strength of this criminal is too much.

This is Giratina!

"So is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Teng Shu was a little amused. He didn't expect that Giratina would want to eat this ghost candy. This is really...

Chapter 51 Please close your eyes when it gets dark

"Boss, today is the date for filming "After the Lights Go Out." Teng Shu held Xiao Q in his arms and silently glanced at Zoroark who was wearing a suit beside him. He was a little uncomfortable with the other's serious look.

However, Zoroark did a good job as a secretary. He was professional and experienced, and his work schedule was well organized.

"Okay, are the actors and scenes ready?" Teng Shu walked quickly in the company's corridor. Today was the date for filming "After Turning Off the Lights". Teng Shu was a little excited. He wanted to see whether this short film could be accepted by the Pokémon in this world.

If fear value can be collected, then Teng Shu can start providing special versions of Pokémon movies.

"It's arranged." Zoroark followed Teng Shu closely.

Teng Shu nodded, so the only thing to do now was to contact Mr. Gengar. After all, Gengar was the star of this special version of the Pokémon short film.

But when he thought of Giratina that he had seen on the camera before, Teng Shu's expression became a little strange.

Teng Shu had not expected that Giratina would actually come to take his ghost candy.

The result is that now when Teng Shu makes the sugar cube, he only dares to make one, and then gives it to Xiao Q as soon as it is done. Otherwise, if he leaves it outside, it might be taken away by Giratina in minutes.

"The world is reversed." Teng Shu sat in the car. He was thinking about Giratina, and the driver was Zoroark.

Yes, Zoroark has a driver's license.

There are even driver's licenses for large vehicles like trucks.

"Boss, are we going to Orange Forest now?" Zoroark couldn't help but ask while driving in the car.

Teng Shu raised his head and glanced at Zoroark. Through the rearview mirror, Teng Shu found that Zoroark's expression at the moment seemed a little subtle.

"Yes, what? Is there anyone you know over there?" Teng Shu looked at Zoroark in front of him and asked with a smile.

Zoroark has been his secretary for one day already, but in this short day, Teng Shu discovered that this subordinate he recruited seemed to be a little mysterious.

"That's not the case." Zoroark curled his lips, and then suddenly changed into another shape.

An image of a strong woman with a strong aura.

Before Teng Shu could ask why the sudden change of appearance, Zoroark rolled down the window.

"Fuck you, how do you drive?" Zoroark roared sharply, and Teng Shu's mouth twitched.

I didn't expect Zoroark to be such a hot-tempered old driver.

Fortunately, after Zoroark finished cursing, he continued to drive steadily, and his image turned back into the secretary in a suit.

Teng Shu touched the two fear sugar cubes in his arms. He could feel the roughness of the sugar cubes between his fingers, which made Teng Shu breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the sugar cube is still there, if it was gone, it would be very troublesome.

Zoroark glanced at Tengshu through the rearview mirror.

"Boss, we've arrived at Chenghua Forest." Teng Shu glanced out the window and they had really arrived.

Zoroark is a good secretary. He can work and drive. The salary is worth it.

After getting off the car, Teng Shu walked into the Chenghua Forest with the sugar cube.

As soon as he walked in, Teng Shu saw countless pairs of blood-red eyes opened in the shadows of the trees, staring at him.

"Hehehe~ Teng Shu, are we going to shoot that short film?" Countless shadows flew out and then merged into Gengar in front of Teng Shu.

"Yes, this is the reward I promised you." Teng Shu took out the two sugar cubes from his arms and handed them over.

Gengar took it impatiently, then stuck out his tongue and put it in his mouth.

It closed its eyes in enjoyment, savoring the moment for a long time, and then opened its eyes.

"The sugar cube you made is so delicious~" Gengar happily jumped to Teng Shu's side. Its huge body brought a strong sense of oppression, but then Gengar stopped and tilted its head to look at Zoroark who was holding a schedule next to Teng Shu.

"Hmm? Where is the old butler beside you?" Gengar looked at Zoroark with an inexplicable light in his eyes. Its neck instantly stretched out and circled around Zoroark like a snake, then looked at Teng Shu again.

"Grandpa Shibata has to pick something up today, so I asked my newly hired secretary to drive." Teng Shu smiled. He was also very curious whether Gengar could see Zoroark's identity.

If even Gengar can't see it, then Zoroark's ability is a bit too strong.

"Hehehe~" Gengar let out a strange laugh, and then a purple light flashed in its eyes. The next second, Gengar nodded in understanding, and Zoroark also nodded at Gengar.

"Interesting~ Hehe~ Really interesting~" Gengar rubbed Xiao Q's head with a smile, and then jumped directly into the shadow of the Teng tree.

Teng Shu looked at Zoroark beside him in surprise. What did Gengar mean by this? Did it figure out Zoroark's identity?

Zoroark smiled at Teng Shu with his big white teeth showing.

Teng Shu scratched his head, but didn't think much about it. Instead, he took Zoroark and drove directly to the filming site of "Lights Out".

"Boss, the actors and sets are all ready." Fawu trotted over and made his presence known in front of Teng Shu.

"Well, is the meteorological team ready?" Teng Shu asked Fawu while looking at the house in front of him.

It’s a very ordinary house, but it doesn’t matter. After all, this short film has a very low cost, or even almost no cost.

In my previous life, after turning off the lights, the filming was basically done at home, and the props and scenery were not important at all. The only things that needed special preparation were the ghost shadows after turning off the lights and the lighting arrangements.

"Get ready." Fawu pointed to the back, where several elderly people were already standing with Poké Balls in their hands.

"I remember it's going to be dark, right?" Just as Teng Shu was about to start preparing for the filming, Gengar's voice came from his shadow.

Teng Shu glanced at the sky. It was daytime now, but in fact, the exterior view of the house could be shot at night, and the interior could be decorated as it was.

"Yes, we need it at night, but..." Teng Shu was about to say something.

Gengar let out a strange, eerie laugh.

Then it crawled out from the shadow of the vine tree, twisting its body, and boundless darkness spread from its body to the surroundings, enveloping the entire house in almost an instant.

Teng Shu looked at it in astonishment.

"Now, it's dark."

Chapter 52: Filming after turning off the lights

"It's really getting dark." Teng Shu looked around and couldn't help but sigh.

The power of Pokémon is really amazing. It actually turned the entire house and its surroundings into a dark environment, but it also caused some trouble.

The staff were frantically turning on the lights, and some Pokémon were trembling with fear from the sudden change in light and darkness.

They are not afraid of the night, but they are afraid of the existence that can cause such darkness.

"Boss, the company has already applied for the [Local Climate Change License] from the Kanaz City Alliance Office yesterday, so there is no need to worry about causing any trouble." Zoroark walked over and said to Teng Shu.

"Yeah, I know." Teng Shu looked at Gengar, feeling a little amused.

This guy Geng Gui is really terrifyingly strong.

But it’s better this way, we can get it done in one go.

"Mr. Gengar, can the rain-praying weather function be used normally?" Teng Shu asked Gengar.

Although I don’t know how Gengar did it, the right thing to do is to take advantage of this opportunity to shoot.

"Of course." Gengar floated beside Teng Shu, its eyes fell on Jigglypuff.

It had read the script and knew that this was the Pokémon that would partner with it this time. At this moment, Jigglypuff was curled up in its trainer's arms, looking at it timidly.

The rising fear satisfied Gengar.

It took a deep breath, and all the emotions of fear and panic were absorbed into its stomach. Gengar patted its stomach contentedly.

"Let the meteorological team start praying for rain. Just a light rain will be enough." Teng Shu pinched his eyebrows and said to Fawu. After hearing this, Fawu immediately started directing the meteorological team to make it rain.

As the Pokémon used the rain-making move, light rain soon fell from the sky. Teng Shu also shot the exterior of the house from several angles, and then it was time for the main film.

However, it was just a matter of one or two seconds, but Gengar made such a big noise that Teng Shu still felt a little amused and helpless.

"Now let's go over the plot, Jigglypuff..." Teng Shu called over the two actors and explained things to them, but when he was explaining Jigglypuff's plot, he noticed that Jigglypuff was already trembling.

Teng Shu paused, then looked at Jigglypuff's trainer.

Jigglypuff is the Pokémon of this trainer. Teng Shu had seen it when he was looking at the actor's information before. Jigglypuff is a member of an opera troupe and has a solid foundation in opera, so he passed the audition and got the invitation.

But now, before the filming even started, Jigglypuff was scared like this. This is not okay.

"I'm sorry, Director Teng Shu, let me give you some advice." Jigglypuff's trainer quickly apologized to Teng Shu, then took Jigglypuff over, patted Jigglypuff's head comfortingly, and whispered something.

Teng Shu shook his head and said nothing.

Although there are many professions that Pokémon can have, because there are no special Pokémon movies in this world, the Pokémon here probably appear most often in commercials, and even in commercials, there are not many scenes that require acting skills.

This results in very few Pokémon characters having decent acting skills.

After a while, Jigglypuff's emotions finally stabilized a little.

"Okay, let's start shooting the first segment." Teng Shu waved the sign in his hand, and the camera, lighting and props teams quickly took their positions.

Teng Shu looked at the camera.

In the picture, accompanied by the faint sound of rain in the background, Jigglypuff walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. Then it walked to the corridor while wiping its hair, humming a song, and then turned off the lights.

The moment the lights were turned off, Gengar instantly appeared in the dark corridor.

A strange and twisted figure stood quietly in the corridor. An invisible aura of fear spread instantly, and Teng Shu, who was standing behind, felt a chill in his heart.

And Jigglypuff was even worse. The moment it turned around, it let out a sharp cry and directly shattered the light bulb in the corridor.
