After hearing Xingqiu's words, Riolu finally breathed a sigh of relief. After nodding, he sat down on the ground with a look of exhaustion on his face.
What should I do if my trainer is too stupid to understand my thoughts?
"What, is this really the case?"
Seeing Riolu admit it, Chongyun was shocked. How could someone be so bad?
"Oh no, Chongyun, let's get out of here quickly, or else that person will really be taken away by the Qianyan Army!"
Xingqiu did not doubt Riolu's words. After all, Riolu was his companion, and if he didn't trust Riolu, who else could he trust?
Besides, he had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he just wasn't sure what went wrong. However, if he took into account the answer that this was all a scam, then everything would make sense.
At this moment, Xingqiu was completely enraged. The chivalrous spirit in his heart would not allow him to remain indifferent when seeing such a thing.
What could Chongyun say about this? He could only obey him.
The two left the alley, and as soon as they went out, they saw a Qianyan soldier saying something to the middle-aged man with a serious face.
The middle-aged man looked pale and kept trying to explain to Qianyan Army, but it was useless.
People around were gossiping one after another, as if this middle-aged man was the worst villain in the world.
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing that the middle-aged man was about to be taken away by the Qianyan Army, Xingqiu hurriedly spoke out to stop them.
The sudden sound made Qianyan's army freeze for a moment, and the crowd also made way for Xingqiu.
"You are... Xingqiu, the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce?"
The moment the Qianyan Army saw Xingqiu, he stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then asked uncertainly.
"It's me. Please wait a moment. There is something else going on here."
Xingqiu nodded to Qianyan Army and spoke slowly.
"Hidden secret? What hidden secret could there be? Junshou, you won't let him off just because he's the second young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, right?" The sturdy man was shocked when he heard Xingqiu's identity, but he immediately jumped out and shouted.
When the crowd around heard this, they were immediately in an uproar. A group of people talked about it, and even vaguely pointed the finger at Feiyun Chamber of Commerce and Qianyan Army.
"This……"
The Qianyan Army was at a loss, looking at the crowd around them in confusion, not knowing what to do.
"Hmph, silence!"
Xingqiu shouted angrily, and his God's Eye lit up slightly. Suddenly, the noise in the crowd stopped abruptly.
Chapter 46 The Truth Comes to Light
"Master Xingqiu, may I ask if there is any hidden secret in this matter?"
Qianyan Army felt somewhat favorable towards Xingqiu for helping him out, and also wanted to hear what the secret was from Xingqiu's mouth.
Hearing this, Xingqiu stepped forward and took a deep look at the sturdy man who looked fierce on the outside but was actually tough on the inside.
"My friend, are you so sure that this person must have stolen your purse?"
The sturdy man was so nervous after seeing Xingqiu's look that he stiffened his neck and shouted: "How could it be false? I saw him secretly looking at me when I was having dinner at Wanmin Hall just now. He must have been staring at me at that time."
"I don't! "
The middle-aged man shouted in grievance and was about to go up to argue with the strong man, but was stopped by Xingqiu.
Ignoring the middle-aged man's puzzled look, Xingqiu continued to ask.
"So you mean he planned to steal your money?"
Hearing Xingqiu ask this, the sturdy man calmed down.
"Yes, he had planned it all along. Otherwise, why would he have been following me since I finished my meal? This can't be explained by coincidence!"
After hearing what the strong man said, the middle-aged man could no longer bear it.
"You're talking nonsense! It's obviously you who has been following me!"
The sturdy man sneered and did not respond.
"Sir, the situation is now clear. Let's catch this thief quickly."
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, and immediately everyone echoed him.
In response, Xingqiu calmly winked at Chongyun.
The tacit understanding developed over the years made Chongyun immediately understand Xingqiu's intention. He quietly stepped back and found the person who had started the commotion, but did not take the next step.
"This... Master Xingqiu, look..."
Qianyanjun frowned and found that things were indeed somewhat clear.
"Don't worry, I have one more question, just ask it."
Xingqiu smiled apologetically at Qianyan Jun and turned to look at the middle-aged man.
"Uncle, you said that this person has been following you since we finished eating. Is that true?"
The middle-aged man now regarded Xingqiu as his last straw, so naturally he told him everything he knew.
He hesitated for a moment: "I don't remember it very clearly. After all, I went to eat a meal, how can I remember who was in the restaurant?"
Hearing this, the strong man couldn't help but interrupt: "Humph, I think you are guilty of your crime. After I finished my meal, I saw you following me!"
The two almost started arguing, but after hearing what they said, Xingqiu couldn't help but smile softly and reached out to stop them.
"Okay, stop for a moment. Let's not talk about who followed whom. Since you finished eating at Wanmin Hall, the two of you have been together. Am I right?"
The middle-aged man didn't say anything, but the sturdy man nodded heavily.
"Well, uncle, please tell me where did you go after you finished eating at Wanmin Hall?"
The middle-aged man stroked his chin and thought for a moment: "After I came out, I walked along Chihu Rock towards Bubu Lu and walked all the way here."
Xingqiu's eyes flickered a few times, and an unfathomable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle, are you sure you haven't been to any other place?"
The place where Riolu picked up the coin bag was not on the route from Wanmin Hall to Bubu Lu.
Hearing Xingqiu's question, the sturdy man beside him twitched his mouth twice and almost cried out.
An indescribable fear arose spontaneously. Why did he ask this? What was his purpose in asking this? At this moment, the strong man was completely panicked.
"No... Impossible? That place is very hidden, how could he have picked it up? Besides, even if he did, it wouldn't be a big deal. Just say I dropped it there."
He comforted himself in his heart.
At this moment, Xingqiu had already looked over, and his half-smiley look made the strong man shudder.
"Sir, do you have anything to add to what the uncle said?"
The sturdy man shook his head quickly.
"No, he's right. I was indeed going to Bubulu to see Bai Zhu for medical treatment, and this guy followed me the whole time."
Hearing the strong man say this, the middle-aged man became anxious and was about to refute, but was stopped by Xingqiu again.
He just clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention.
"Since you've admitted it, that's good. Riolu, bring it up."
At this time, Xingqiu shouted loudly.
Suddenly, everyone saw a blue dog that was only as tall as a calf trotting over like a human, holding a familiar purse in its hand.
It was exactly the same purse as the one in the middle-aged man's hand.
The moment he saw the purse, cold sweat broke out on the strong man's forehead.
There was an uproar among the crowd. They had realized that things were not as they had imagined.
Riolu came to Xingqiu and handed over the purse in his hand.
Xingqiu opened his purse in front of everyone and counted the Mora in it.
Not long after, Xingqiu raised his head and said, "A total of 148,100 Mora, which is exactly the same as the amount of Mora in this uncle's purse. Sir, this purse was picked up by Riolu in the alley near Chunxiang Kiln. It is exactly the opposite of what you said about Bubulu. Do you have anything else to say?"
After hearing Xingqiu's words, Qianyan Army also realized that something was wrong and quietly changed their positions so that they could subdue the burly man as soon as possible.
At this time, the sturdy man looked pale and was sweating profusely.
"This... maybe I remembered it wrongly. Yes, maybe I remembered it wrongly. I went to Chunxiang Kiln on the way. Maybe I dropped it there at that time."
Xingqiu sneered: "Did you remember it wrong? That's not what you said just now."
At this time, looking at the strong man's appearance, everyone also realized that something was wrong.
The sturdy man also snatched the purse from Xingqiu's hand.
"What's the big deal? It's just a misunderstanding. I can just apologize." After saying that, he looked at the middle-aged man and said sorry in a flat tone.
After saying this, he pushed through the crowd and was about to leave.
Everyone wanted to stop him, but when they saw his strong body, they did not dare to step forward to seek justice.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
Chongyun, who had been lying in ambush in the crowd, immediately walked out, pressed his shoulders, and dragged a man out by the collar.
"What? Didn't I tell you that I misunderstood?!"
Seeing the person being dragged out by Chongyun, the sturdy man's face changed and he subconsciously wanted to run, but he looked at the Ice God's Eye on Chongyun's waist that had lit up with some fear.
At this time, Qianyan Army also discovered something was wrong, and strode forward, blocking his way.
"Sir, please come with me. Don't worry, if there is really no problem, we will let you go immediately."
Chapter 47: Goo, Kill Me
Soon, the strong man and the middle-aged man were all taken away by the Qianyan Army.
Xingqiu and Chongyun smiled at each other and were about to leave quietly, but were suddenly stopped.
"Master Xingqiu, Mr. Chongyun, please wait a moment."
The two turned around and saw that it was the Qianyan Army who was responsible for handling the matter just now.
The Qianyan soldier walked over and performed an ancient etiquette towards the two men.
"Master Xingqiu, Mr. Chongyun, hello. My name is Luan Da, and I am a general of the Thousand Rocks Army in Liyue Harbor."
Hearing Luan Da's words, both Chongyun and Xingqiu were shocked. A lieutenant general was not a small position, and even Xingqiu's father had to be treated with caution.
So the question is, why did such a big shot come to see them?
Chongyun and Xingqiu looked at each other, and tacitly shifted their gaze to Riolu and Chouchou who were left outside.
Luan Da burst out laughing.
"It seems that you two have noticed it. Yes, I am here for Pokémon. I wonder if you two would be so kind as to come to the Glazed Pavilion to have a chat?"
Xingqiu agreed to Luan Da's invitation and followed Luan Da into the private room that had been booked in Liuli Pavilion.
As soon as he sat down, Luan Da rubbed his hands and pointed at the blue dog at Xingqiu's feet with some embarrassment.
"Master Xingqiu, can you let me touch this little guy?"
He had wanted to touch Yan Bang's little York a long time ago, but the boy was too stingy and wouldn't even let him touch it. Plus, there was no news on whether or not people were allowed to buy Pokémon, so none of them dared to move and had been holding back until now.
Xingqiu was confused. What was wrong with this guy? He called them over just to rub Riolu's dog head?
Although it felt unbelievable, Xingqiu still picked up Riolu and handed him over without any hesitation.
Riolu looked at Xingqiu in disbelief, as if he had not expected that the partner he had chosen would be such a traitor.
Luan Da looked at the blue dog so close to him, rubbed his hands nervously, and carefully took the dog, playing with it as if he were holding a fine piece of porcelain.
Luan Da's method of supporting the dog was obviously very experienced, so much so that after Riolu, who was originally very resistant, fell into Luan Da's hands, he collapsed on his legs like a melted candle, and kept making comfortable noises from his mouth.
"Heh, as a brave warrior of the Wave, how could I be played around with like other dogs? That would be an insult to a great warrior!"
"No... that's not right. What's going on with these hands? They're warm, as if they have magical powers. Damn it, why is my body getting weaker and weaker?"
"Move, Riolu, move quickly! Have you forgotten the glory of the Wave Heroes? But...but...this is too comfortable~"
