I am the second in command of Team Rocket!

After all, it would be too embarrassing if all the top four were trainers from other regions and there were no local trainers at all.

At the same time, the grouping of the semi-finals is also very subtle.

The two Kanto natives, Luo Yuan and Dai Mei, were assigned to the same group. In other words, it was first ensured that there must be a trainer from Kanto who could enter the finals.

"If there was no shady story, I would eat the elf ball." After taking a look at the grouping on the TV, Luo Yuan switched the TV station to Ibrahimovic's favorite love drama channel.

Then, Luo Yuan started to pack things.

He planned to leave Quartz Plateau for a while.

Different from the previous games, there will be an offseason after the eight-to-four game.

This is a competition format introduced at the Quartz Conference in recent years.

In order to allow participating trainers to compete in the semi-finals in the best condition, there will be a three-day rest period before the semi-finals.

Allows trainers to restore their own Pokémon that was injured in previous battles.

For Luo Yuan, this period of repair is just right.

Although he doesn't need to repair his Pokémon for the time being, Sakaki is currently not on Team Rocket, and he still needs time to deal with Team Flare's affairs.

Luo Yuan was walking in the passage. After seeing Luo Yuan, all the Rockets passing by stopped and stared at the ceremony. They waited until Luo Yuan left before retracting their eyes and moving on.

咚

He knocked on the door of Zhentiao's office and pushed the door open without waiting for Zhentiao's answer.

Zhenniao raised his head and glanced at Luo Yuan, the expression on his face did not change at all.

I have become accustomed to it.

In her opinion, it was Luo Yuan's character who just pushed the door open. If Luo Yuan had to wait for her consent before coming in, she would wonder if Luo Yuan was someone else pretending to be him.

"I heard that traces of Pachira were found near Lampurchi?"

Luo Yuan naturally sat across from Zhenniao's desk, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, then said with admiration:

“Good coffee.”

Zhenniao looked at Luo Yuan, silent for a while, and then said: "...That's what I just drank."

"Oh, sorry, give it back to you." Luo Yuan said, took another sip, and then put the coffee cup back to its original position.

"........"

Zhenniao rolled her eyes, she finally saw that Luo Yuan was nakedly teasing her.

If you continue to dwell on this matter, Luo Yuan will succeed.

So she said directly: "Yes, Ma Zhishi's people found traces of Pachira near Lampurchi."

It's a little regretful that Zhenniao didn't continue to take on Luo Yuan.

"Qianxun" two five five five nine five three zero

But business matters.

After pondering for a moment, Luo Yuan asked: "If I remember correctly, the island where Claire is located is not far from Lampurchi."

Although he had driven away the giant stinging jellyfish, the stinging jellyfish was a very territorial Pokémon and was unlikely to migrate too far.

"Yes, if Pachira continues her search, she will most likely find traces of those Flare members."

"I even suspect now that she has some information."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to find Lampulqi so quickly."

This is actually a normal thing. After all, those Flare members must have been in contact with Pachira before they lost contact.

Search for the location where Team Flare last appeared, and sooner or later you will find Claire and others trapped on the island.

"Has Pachila contacted us again since the last contact?" Luo Yuan asked.

Shintori shook his head: "I think she is probably planning to find out the situation on Claire's side first, and then decide whether to negotiate with us based on the specific situation."

This kind of thinking is normal.

After all, if Claire didn't fall into the hands of Team Rocket, wouldn't she be slaughtered if she took the initiative to send her to her door?

But normalcy is normal. Claire and others who are trapped on the island are a card held by Team Rocket. If they are found by Pachira, Pachira will definitely find ways to rescue them.

It is still very difficult for Ma Zhishi to block a king.

Letting people like Claire run away is also a hidden danger for Team Rocket.

So, thought about it for a moment.

"Let me take a trip." Luo Yuan said.

The next election for the king is very important for him and the Rockets. We cannot let Paqila take up most of the energy.

So Luo Yuan plans to solve the problem once and for all.

Seeing Luo Yuan's expression, Zhenniao roughly guessed what Luo Yuan was thinking.

But she still asked: "What is your plan?"

"Tell Ma Zhishi to let him out the news and lure Pachira to the island." Luo Yuan adjusted his cuffs, looked into the real bird's eyes and said with a smile: "Use these two days to kill both groups of people."

...........

Pachira's mood was restless

Two days have passed since we left the Quartz Plateau.

She came all the way to Lampurchi, a tourist city located in the southeast of Kankan.

Claire's last communication location was near here.

But after searching here for two days, she still couldn't find Claire.Not even the slightest trace of Claire was found.

This made her believe more and more in her belief that Team Rocket had discovered and controlled Claire and others.

Because if there was an accident, there would be no clues at all.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but want to contact the Rockets and start negotiations.

But the Rockets' request for an interview made her very fearful and entangled.

On the one hand, she is currently the only one in the Flare team in Kanto. If they want to negotiate, she will have to come forward in person. This will expose the fact that she is King Carlos but is a member of the Flare team.

On the other hand, she was worried that Team Rocket would take the opportunity to kill her as well.

Therefore, she was unwilling to personally negotiate with the Rockets unless absolutely necessary.

After struggling for a while, she finally made a decision.

"Look for another two days. If we can't find it again, we'll negotiate with the Rockets."

With this thought in mind, Pachila picked up the coffee on the table and was about to take a sip to pay and leave when a slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind her.

"King Pachira?"

Pachira was startled and turned her head.

Luo Yuan, whom she had interviewed before at Quartz Plateau, was standing at the door, greeting her with a surprised look on his face.

"Why is he here...."

Doubts flashed through her heart, and Pachira didn't have time to think, so she responded with a habitual smile: "Hello."

Chapter 252 Pachira was unaware of anything

Pachila murmured in her heart, but on the surface she maintained the demeanor of a heavenly king and greeted Luo Yuan with a smile.

"Did King Pachira come to Rampurchi for vacation?" Luo Yuan had a suitably surprised expression on his face.

If someone were to rate his current performance, Luo Yuan felt that his acting skills would be at least a nine.

"Hmm..." Pachira nodded.

Her excuse for leaving the Quartz Plateau was to travel around Kanto, which just explained why she appeared in Lampurchi.

"However, isn't Mr. Luo Yuan attending the Quartz Conference? How could he come here again?"

A puzzled expression flashed in Pachira's eyes.

If I remember correctly, the Quartz Conference was at a critical moment.

Luo was far away from the Quartz Plateau, but appeared in Lampurqi. He looked more suspicious than her.

Especially at this time.

Just two days after she arrived in Lampurchi, Luo Yuan followed closely, which somewhat touched Pachila's sensitive nerves.

Pachira wondered if the Kanto Alliance had discovered something and asked Luo Yuan, a person who had been in contact with her, to investigate.

Luo Yuan's telepathy was keenly aware of the fluctuations in Pachira's mentality.

So he smiled slightly and explained:

"The semi-finals will start in two days. During these two days, I will take my Pokémon to relax."

With that said, Luo Yuan patted the backpack on his back.

There was a zipper sound, and Ibrahimovic's little head poked out of the backpack.

"Boy~!"

Ibrahimovic twisted his body, got out of the backpack, and jumped onto Luo Yuan's shoulders to hold on. He looked at Pachira with his big eyes, full of curiosity.

After hearing Luo Yuan's words and looking at Ibrahimovic lying on Luo Yuan's shoulders, Pachira shook her head secretly, feeling that she was too nervous.

If Luo Yuan was sent by the Kanto Alliance to test her, there was no reason why he would bring a Pokémon like Eevee with no fighting ability or even a hindrance.

Ibrahimovic, who was lying on Luo Yuan's shoulder, seemed to feel some malice. He turned his head and looked around, but found nothing.

Luo Yuan reached out and touched Ibrahimovic's little head, especially rubbing the two long ears.

He activated his telepathy and telepathically responded to Ma Zhishi on the street corner: "The plan begins!"

The next second, a burst of exclamation was heard from the street.

Luo Yuan and Paqi La turned their heads to look at the same time, and saw a team of Rockets wearing black uniforms rushing toward the seaside with Team Rocket's iconic Pokémon.

Wherever it passes, pedestrians retreat.

The expressions of these rocket team members were serious. The team leader led the way while explaining the mission to his subordinates, vaguely saying the words "submarine" and "enemy" in his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Pachira's pupils shrank.

Claire and others disappeared near Lampurqi before. Now that the Rockets mentioned submarines and enemies, could it have something to do with Claire and the others?

Thinking of this, Pachira couldn't sit still.

If that's the case, then Claire needs her own help now.

Just when she was about to get up and chase Team Rocket, she suddenly remembered that there was Luo Yuan next to her.

Paqila turned to look at Luo Yuan, thinking of finding an excuse to get rid of Luo Yuan.

Luo Yuan spoke before her.

"King Pachira, that was Team Rocket just now. It seems like they were executing some conspiracy. Let's catch up and take a look."

Luo Yuan's words were righteous and he looked like a messenger of justice.

Pachira was choked when she was about to speak, and the words she had prepared were stuck in her throat.

Pachira was silent for several seconds before speaking: "Team Rocket's words are too dangerous..."

"King Pachira, you don't have to worry about this. My Kuailong is still quite capable of fighting, and my other Pokémon are not weak either."

"..."
