Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Chapter 624 Reinforcements (Revised in two hours)

for a long time.

Satisfied, Masahiro walked out of the flower shop and bumped into Tetsuya, who was on his way back.

"Finished talking?"

The former looked at the other person with curiosity.

Tetsuya nodded slightly: "Yes, it's almost all arranged."

"But you found a clue so quickly?"

"It's not that easy." Zheng Hui shrugged dismissively. "The shop manager said that these seeds were obtained by his grandmother, and he doesn't know where they came from."

"So the trail has gone cold again?"

Tetsuya raised an eyebrow, feeling somewhat speechless.

Zheng Hui waved his hand: "That's not necessarily true. The old man is still alive and is said to be in good health."

The grandson absolutely refused to tell me where the old lady lived, saying he'd be beaten to death if he did.

Having a clue is better than searching aimlessly.

If someone is unwilling to talk about it, try asking someone else first; surely someone will know.

“Hmm.” Zheng Hui agreed. “If I remember correctly, there seems to be a patrol team stationed near Coldwater Valley. We’ll ask the relevant members in the Alliance if they know anything about it.”

There are always more ways than difficulties.

What I fear most is not having difficulties, but not knowing where the difficulties will appear.

on the way back.

The two also expressed their feelings about the results of the Ranger Alliance's investigation.

"I never expected that a teacher from the patrolman school, who was also the homeroom teacher of a class, would actually be an undercover agent for the Dark Team."

Zheng Hui found it extremely unbelievable, "Could it be that after spending so much time together, not a single one of them noticed anything amiss?"

Zheye silently rolled his eyes in his heart.

What's so special about that?

In those other regions under the jurisdiction of the Pokémon League, which undercover agent isn't more deeply hidden than this?

Three years after three years.

The boss has already risen to a high-level position.

"That's not all." He shook his head subconsciously, recalling what Professor Shinhara had told him on the phone. "It's said that this guy called Jingka has also recruited several people as his assistants."

Even the assistants didn't know they were working for the Dark Team; they were all very serious about it.

Among the students in this year's class was a genius scientist named Yi Zhi, who was one of them.

You might not believe it, but the core program for the Dark Team's portable, remote-controlled device was actually written by Jingka after he tricked Yizhi into writing it.

Zhenghui's entire face was blank.

After a long silence, he slowly uttered two words: "That's fucking awesome."

From this perspective...

This undercover agent, whose alias is Jingka and whose real name is unknown, is truly a rare talent.

"Then how did he escape?"

Zheng Hui asked curiously.

"Heh." Tetsuya chuckled. "It's simple. They planted a lot of bombs in their own laboratory underground at the patrol school."

The rangers didn't dare chase him; they could only watch him run away.

Compared to infiltrating deep behind enemy lines and incidentally turning a few young people to defect, this was a different story.

Planting bombs is a minor matter.

At most, the safety awareness of the teachers at the patrolman school is worth criticizing.

But then again.

Before the results are in, who would believe that a ranger teacher who has shed blood for the League would plant a bomb in his own laboratory?

"It seems they've made up their minds to get your help."

Zheng Hui suddenly chuckled and said this.

Tetsuya sighed helplessly.

indeed.

Normally, it would be extremely embarrassing for something like this to happen.

The Rangers Alliance leadership was so busy trying to cover it up that they even had Professor Shinhara relay the message to him immediately.

While there is indeed a whistleblower involved, there's no need to be in such a rush.

To put it bluntly, this is essentially a gesture of goodwill.

Fortunately, he was prepared for this.

Back at our temporary lodgings.

A robust figure stood forlornly in front of the gate.

"Senior Bolang?"

Tetsuya greeted him in surprise, "What are you doing here? Did something happen in Fengrao Town?"

No wonder he asked that.

Fengrao Town is home to the main base of rangers in the Almia region.

As the captain there, Polang was extremely busy with both duties and tasks.

Unless something unexpected happens, he rarely leaves Fengrao Town.

"No no."

Upon hearing Tetsuya's voice, Bolang immediately turned around.

It was only then that the two noticed that his arms were stuffed with a bunch of glass bottles, which explained why his posture looked a bit strange from behind.

"This is fresh milk from the big milk jug that Auntie prepared for you, as well as milk pudding. I brought it along as well."

He said with a smile.

The "big mother" that Bolang mentioned was someone that Tetsuya and Masahiro had met from afar when they stopped in Fengrao Town.

That was truly a formidable general.

Bolang is pretty good as a fighter, isn't he?

His ability to break through thick iron plates underwater is enough to demonstrate his strength.

However, the big mother, known as "the strongest in Almia," can easily lift him up and spin him three times in a second.

Yes, it's the kind with the big windmill.

Of course.

If a real fight had broken out, Polang, who was proficient in martial arts, certainly wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.

Unfortunately, he was raised by his stepmother since he was a child.

Fighting back was something I wouldn't even dare to think about.

Moreover.

Tetsuya learned this from A-Si.

The robust Bolang of today was once a crybaby who was bullied by others.

It was under the care and encouragement of my aunt that I became who I am today.

If anyone hurts Big Mom, Polon will definitely be the first to rush in.

We went inside and sat down.

Bolang's furrowed brows clearly showed his inner turmoil.

"Has something happened?"

Tetsuya handed over a cup of tea and patiently inquired.

After all, Bolang was Ah Si's good friend.

He is still happy to help in any way he can.

"Hey."

Bolang took a sip of tea and sighed, "It's all because of the Mirror Card."

A knowing glint flashed in Tetsuya's eyes.

Just as he expected.

The patrolmen's school is also within the jurisdiction of the Fengrao Town patrolmen's team.

With an undercover agent suddenly appearing, Bolang, as the team leader, must definitely take responsibility for it.

The previous captain of the Mizuri-go, Osaka, was in a similar situation.

"So, Brother Polang, you've been dismissed?"

He said it very directly.

Bolang denied this: "No, it's just a temporary suspension. I'm going to work in the publicity department for a while with a friend."

"Isn't that great?"

Zhenghui chimed in enthusiastically, "This is essentially a temporary reprieve; we can go back after a while."

"Yes, what's there to be unhappy about?"

Tetsuya was somewhat puzzled.

This punishment is utterly insignificant; it could even be said to be protecting Bolang.

“I’m worried,” Bolang sighed again. “I don’t know if those kids can protect the safety of Fengrao Town.”

have to.

It turns out it wasn't because of the punishment.

Tetsuya and Masaki felt they should have thought of this sooner.

Given Polang's personality, it's perfectly normal for him to have such thoughts.

"Oh, don't worry, I think Kailang is doing quite well."

Tetsuya smiled and comforted him, "Maybe by the time you get back, they'll have already dropped the first two words of 'acting captain' from the title."

"Remove the first two words?"

Bolang didn't react for a moment.

Then he burst into laughter: "If that's really the case, that would be wonderful! It's a good thing to have more and more outstanding juniors."

Actually, he wasn't too conflicted about it.

It was just a subconscious feeling of unease.

Tetsuya's interruption quickly put Boro into a relaxed state.

Yes.

It's not like I haven't been out on missions before.

During those periods, Kailang led everyone to do a very good job.

"Um--"

Masahiro, who was eating milk pudding, had his eyes shining: "It's so delicious, Tetsuya, you should try some too."

"Oh?"
