Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Fearing that Zhe might not believe her, Officer Jenny specifically emphasized her partner's abilities.

"I know, I just don't quite understand."

Tetsuya nodded.

There are reasons why Growlithe dogs can be used as police dogs.

Their sense of smell is so sensitive that it can even perceive emotions.

Even among elves, they are among the most powerful beings.

Even if the scent is deliberately concealed through various means, it has limited effect on Growlithe and Arcanine.

"By the way, the other party probably has ground squid and double-explosive gas in their possession, and there are related traces left in these places."

Officer Jenny then added.

It's clear that she's a beginner and not very skilled at it.

"Okay, I understand the general idea. Leave the rest to me."

Tetsuya said confidently.

Are you kidding me?

If a top-tier trainer like him were stumped by something so trivial, how embarrassing would that be?

"Thank you so much for your help. I'll get back to work now."

Officer Jenny clasped her hands together to express her gratitude, "Growlithe, let's go!"

With a nimble leap, he sat on the motorcycle, and the roar of engines quickly filled the air.

"Wang"

The Growlithe, tongue lolling out, sped off behind them.

This might be a very good job for them.

At least, there is plenty of time to release one's excessive energy and desire to run at high speed.

"Anyway, let's go check out that Miracle Bicycle Shop first."

Tetsuya thought to himself as he walked out of the police station.

He simply doesn't understand.

It's just a bicycle, why is it so expensive? It's even more expensive than his previous house in the suburbs of Tokiwa City.

But it cannot be denied.

The Miracle Bicycle brand is indeed one of the symbols of Cerulean City.

We arrived at the store.

Upon hearing Tetsuya's purpose for visiting, the car dealership owner quickly came out to greet him.

"That bastard stole my supersonic bike and mountain bike, which I've had in my collection for ages! They're rare, one-of-a-kind pieces!"

The shop owner was very excited.

Tetsuya gestured for the other person to calm down: "Could you describe the appearance and general purpose of the two bicycles? Since they are rare, it will make it easier for me to find them."

"of course can."

The shop owner immediately began to describe it.

Simply put, a so-called supersonic bicycle is one that can be ridden at supersonic speeds without the frame breaking down, and is entirely blue-black in color.

The so-called off-road bicycle is a folding bicycle that can perform various difficult maneuvers in mountainous terrain, and it is red and white in color.

Tetsuya roughly understands why these two items are no longer available.

The former is fine; if humans don't need it, giving it to a Pokémon like Blaziken is also an option. The problem is that Blaziken itself might be faster than that.

As for the latter, he actually felt that climbing the mountain with his own two legs and hands would be easier, and technically the same.

Seeing the agitated shop owner, he gave a few perfunctory words and left to go to another crime scene.

There wasn't much information available about the berry powder shop or the badge shop owner, Mr. Kinzo.

Even Kinzo-sensei said, "If it really doesn't work out, then forget it. Losing three badges isn't a big deal. They're all coded anyway, and they're just for collecting."

If the challenge mechanism of the League Tournament were so easily cracked by thieves, trainers would have stopped challenging gyms long ago.

After saying goodbye to the two, Tetsuya arrived at an ordinary-looking house.

"dong dong dong"

"Hello, I'm assisting Officer Jenny with the case. Is anyone home?"

he shouted.

"They're here, they're here."

A woman's voice rang out, and the door opened.

"Oh! You are...."

The woman who owned the house recognized Tetsuya.

In the Kanto region, he is quite famous as one of the most outstanding young people.

The hostess greeted her very politely, "Please come in, please come in. I didn't expect it to be you."

"Sorry to bother you."

Tetsuya said as he went inside.

"So you mean he ransacked your house and only took the tables, chairs, tableware, and carpets?"

He asked the young couple detailed questions in front of the newly purchased dining table.

"Yes."

The young man nodded. "He didn't even take some of the valuables with him."

Tetsuya narrowed his eyes.

This is very wrong.

Or rather, anyone could see that something was wrong.

The first three items stolen by the other party, while not extremely valuable, would be very precious to the average person.

If you resell them, making a few million or tens of thousands is not a problem.

He originally thought the family didn't have anything valuable, and the thief, in his shame and anger, just took a few things.

Now it seems there's something fishy going on.

"Do you have any photos here? I'd like to see what those things look like."

Tetsuya put forward his own ideas.

Of course, he felt the chances were slim; what normal person would photograph their own belongings?

"Well..."

The young couple hesitated for a moment, then said, "Please wait a moment."

The woman went to her room and took out a stack of photos.

Tetsuya casually took it and raised an eyebrow.

Sure enough, city people know how to have fun.

Chapter 585 A Treasure Map Pointing to the Hua Lan Cave? (Edited in half an hour)

Don't misunderstand.

It's not really anything shameful.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have shown it to Tetsuya.

In the photo.

Aside from the few stolen items, there was the couple dressed in various Pokémon costumes.

In my previous life, this thing was called cosplay.

In the world of elves, groups that engage in similar behavior are usually called monster maniacs.

They didn't focus much attention or gaze on people.

Tetsuya carefully observed the appearance of the missing items in the photo.

The tables, chairs, and tableware were nothing special.

They're just the styles sold in shopping malls.

The carpet was a bit hard to see.

Seeing that Tetsuya had frowned, the male host quickly guessed what the other was thinking and hurriedly explained, "That carpet was left by my grandfather, and it's quite old."

In addition, it gets dirty easily from walking around every day, so it looks the same as in the photo.

However, I do have its original photograph here.

"Let me see it."

Tetsuya's curiosity grew stronger.

This master thief, or rather, petty thief, clearly had his own ideas.

"Hold on."

The male homeowner immediately started rummaging through the storage cabinet.

After searching for a good ten minutes, he finally handed Tetsuya a faded old photograph.

"This mountaineer is my grandfather, and the three Dugtrios beside him are his Pokémon partners. They made their name in Cerulean City by using the Burrowing Technique!"

The male homeowner spoke with a hint of pride.

Although the barrier to entry for Pokémon training has become lower over time, more and more trainers have mastered the essence of various skills and training methods.

But before that, the situation was quite different.

Let alone further use of skills, many trainers don't even know which skills their Pokémon can learn.

In this situation, it is very common for someone to rely on a single skill for everything.

This situation only began to decrease after Professor Oak and other Pokémon professors worked together to integrate and publish most of the knowledge, and even developed and promoted the Pokédex.

Judging from what the male homeowner said, his grandfather was a trainer who was very good at directing Diglett to dig burrows.

No wonder he can own a house in downtown Cerulean City at such a young age.

It turns out their ancestors were wealthy.

It's important to know that it's quite normal for mountaineers, especially those skilled at digging tunnels, to occasionally strike it rich.

Evolution stones, Pokémon items, fossils of ancient Pokémon...

These are all good stuff.

"Why does the pattern on this carpet feel strangely familiar?"

Looking at the yellowed old photos, Tetsuya's brows furrowed even more deeply.

Being stuck in an in-between position is the most frustrating.

I have a vague impression of it, but I can't remember it.

My already injured brain was throbbing with a faint, sharp pain.

Even a passive counterattack after Mewtwo's psychic powers have been subdued is still unbearable for Tetsuya.

It seems like it's only been a little over three months since he was able to use his superpowers as usual.

In reality, it affects many aspects.

and many more.

Mewtwo?
