Chapter 244: Yukira's Hometown, Silver Mountain
Chapter 244: Yukira's Hometown, Silver Mountain
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light flashed, and Kira took the initiative to get into the Poké Ball.
"Yu Kira..." Qingyi stared at the scene blankly, completely stunned, and didn't react for a moment.
She was originally worried that judging from Yukira's current condition, he might not be willing to enter this small Poké Ball, so she didn't hold much hope. After all, for Yukira, it was a completely unfamiliar and enclosed space!
I didn't expect that Yukira would really...
Is it because of what I said, “We will be together forever”?
When she thought of this, Qingyi suddenly felt touched and her eyes became moist involuntarily.
Really...what a great Yukira!
Because she was still concerned about Yukira's situation, Qingyi immediately released Yukira from the Poké Ball and said, "Yukira, the Poké Ball is just a formality. If you don't want to stay, then don't stay. It doesn't matter!"
Xiaozhi can hold Pikachu, and she can also hold it until it evolves from Kira. As for the final evolution of Banjira...
Sorry, her small body cannot hold the Desert Tyrant!
………………
A day later, Qingyi took a spaceship to Baiyin Mountain. At this time, the Baiyin Conference was about to start in a few days.
Qingyi thought that if she was lucky and successfully found the stone slabs to fuse, she might be able to collect all the badges in time to participate in the Silver Conference.
The Silver Mountain Rocket Team Base is in a special atmosphere during this period.
Relying on the name Qingyi, this mysterious duo, Yamado and Kozaburo, actually enjoyed the treatment of the highest commanders of the base here!
In this small world, they indulged in the desire of being in a superior position by relying on the power of others, but it was not too outrageous, and they did not forget the important task that Qingyi assigned to them.
When they learned that the eldest lady was about to arrive, they immediately became nervous.
They hurriedly tidied up their appearance and gave orders for everyone to go and greet them.
After the spaceship slowly landed, Qingyi was surrounded by her entourage and walked out.
As soon as she stepped out of the cabin, she saw rows of Team Rocket members in black uniforms standing neatly on both sides.
Accompanied by deafening shouts: "Welcome, Miss!" This spectacular scene made Qingyi's heart tremble.
Such a huge momentum and such a luxurious display seemed to push the entire atmosphere to a climax, and it looked very much like the legendary underworld!
Qingyi gently waved her hand and said, "No need to be so polite!"
Then she turned her gaze to Yamato and Kozaburo and asked, "Have you found any suspicious places within the scope of Baiyin Mountain in the past two days?"
"This..." The two looked at each other, their lips trembling, but they dared not make a sound, as if they were afraid of saying something wrong and being scolded.
After all, the mission went smoothly at the beginning, but became difficult later on.
Seeing their anxious expressions, Qingyi knew that this matter must be complicated. Perhaps some unexpected changes had occurred.
She pursed her lips and said calmly, "Don't be nervous, just tell me the truth, what's going on?"
Armado calmed down a bit and said, "Miss, the stone tablet you gave us has produced a response within the Silver Mountain, but strangely, it still cannot sense the specific location, and compared to the last time at the Lake of Anger, this response is much weaker!"
Xiao Sanlang at the side immediately added: "Not only that, we have carefully collected all the information within the scope of Baiyin Mountain, but we can't find anything unusual. Everything seems unusually calm!"
Qingyi was a little unconvinced, frowned slightly and asked: "Are you really sure? Could there be any omissions or oversights?"
Yamado frowned and thought seriously. When her eyes fell on Yukira who was sleeping quietly in Qingyi's arms, an idea suddenly flashed through her mind. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Miss, I remember there is indeed something that we may have overlooked. A team of poachers appeared on Silver Mountain, but that happened more than a month ago. Could it be related to this?"
Xiao Sanlang stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "Now that you mention it, I think it's very likely that the thing the young lady was looking for was taken away by that group of people and then taken to some other place."
However, Qingyi shook her head and said with certainty: "No, the stone slab's sensing will definitely not be wrong. The stone slab must still be in the Silver Mountain!"
Then, Qingyi thought of a possibility and narrowed her eyes slightly, "Unless... after those people got the stone tablet, they did not leave Baiyin Mountain immediately, but hid somewhere in Baiyin Mountain!"
After hearing Qingyi's words, Xiao Sanlang's eyes suddenly lit up. He clapped his hands excitedly and said loudly: "Yes, this is not impossible!"
Yamado asked with a puzzled look on his face: "But those guys have done something illegal. Now there are wanted posters for them everywhere within a hundred miles of Silver Mountain. How could they dare to stay in this extremely dangerous place?"
Qingyi gently stroked Yukira's back and replied calmly: "As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is also the safest place, so this possibility cannot be ruled out!"
After thinking for a moment, she decisively issued an order: "Send more personnel immediately to search and monitor Baiyin Mountain with all our strength. Do not let any suspicious person go!"
Even if not for the stone slab, she had to teach that damn poacher group a lesson for her Yukira and send them to jail.
Although Team Rocket used to be a bad guy and captured Pokémon everywhere, both wild and with trainers, it was not that outrageous.
At the very least, they will not abuse Pokémon, will provide Pokémon with health protection, and will provide generous benefits.
After a short rest at the Rocket Team base, Qingyi led the Rocket Team to the Silver Mountain Forest.
Qingyi walked around the forest for a long time holding the emerald green slate, and the sensitivity of the slate did not change. The same was true for the other slates in her body, but once they left the range of Silver Mountain, the slates would lose their sensitivity.
"As expected, I can't find any direction. It seems that every place in Silver Mountain is a hiding place for stone slabs. And the induction between the stone slabs is not as strong as it was in the Lake of Anger!"
Qingyi tightly grasped the green slate in her hand, thinking hard about what that strange feeling just now meant.
After a long while, she finally whispered to herself, "It seems... there is some kind of power or something blocking the connection between the stone slabs!"
How strange!
In the next two days, Qingyi and the people she sent out still gained nothing.
They failed to collect any valuable clues or intelligence, nor were they able to discover the whereabouts of the poachers, which made Qingyi begin to waver in her initial inference.
Could it be that her judgment was wrong?
Is it true that there is no connection between the stone slabs and those poachers?
However, if this is not the case, then... what mysterious things exist in this silver mountain? What is interfering with the clear and perceptible echo between the stone slabs?
These questions kept lingering in Qingyi's mind, making her more and more confused.
Just when Qingyi was falling into self-doubt and inner conflict, the duo's side saw a completely different scene. They actually ran into a trio they disliked at the Pokémon Center at the foot of Silver Mountain!
"Musashi!"
"Amado!"
"Why are you here?"
When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other, especially the women in these two groups who dislike each other. At this moment, when they meet on a narrow road, the atmosphere instantly becomes tense, as if a war is about to break out.
Speaking of the grudges between Musashi and Amado, it can be traced back to the time when they were both in the Rocket Team Academy. Since then, the two have had a big grudge against each other.
Musashi folded his arms, looked at Amado with contempt, and said with a smug look on his face: "We are here to participate in the Silver Conference. This is specially authorized by the eldest lady!"
As soon as this topic was mentioned, the anger in Amado's heart was ignited. He and Kozaburo worked so hard on missions and were exhausted, while the hateful woman Musashi and her companions were having a good time with the eldest lady's gold card!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
No, she has to get back on track!
In order to save face, Yamato imitated Musashi and was even more disdainful than her. He responded with a haughty attitude: "Tsk, what's so good about the Alliance Conference? We are following the young lady and performing confidential missions for her!"
At this point, Yamado couldn't help but turn on her sarcasm mode.
She showed a hint of sarcasm on her face and said sarcastically, "We are chosen by the young lady as her confidants and have successfully completed several confidential missions for her! You are just lackeys. I'm afraid you don't even know what a confidential mission is!"
"Oh my, I really don't know what you are so proud of, hehe..." Yamado let out a strange and demonic pig laugh.
"You...damn it!!" Musashi gritted his teeth in anger, but he had no way to refute what Amado said.
At the same time, Kojiro was in a fierce standoff with Kozaburo and had no time to come to support Musashi.
At this moment, Meow Meow suddenly jumped out, pointed at Amado and shouted angrily: "What do you know, woman? This is obviously the eldest lady exploring the unique talents of each of us and giving us the opportunity to freely choose the direction of our future development. Do you have such preferential treatment? Meow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Meow Meow glanced at Amado with disdain, and then sneered and added: "Humph, even if you want to be treated like this, I'm afraid the young lady may not agree! Meow!"
Meow Meow accurately hit the pain point in Amado's heart, which made Amado furious and crazy, and she temporarily threw all her reason out of the window.
She was furious and rushed straight towards Musashi with her teeth and claws bared.
A fierce battle is about to break out!
Thus, the two groups, four people and a Meowth, started a chaotic and fierce battle in the deserted corridor of the Pokémon Center.
In this melee, they all used the most primitive hand-to-hand combat. Musashi and Amado even ignored their image and used the "face-grabbing method" on each other.
When the melee finally ended, members of both sides were exhausted and panting, with their hair disheveled. If someone who didn't know the situation passed by, they would think they were lunatics who ran out from somewhere.
After a short rest, Amado stood up, looked at the trio opposite him, and said proudly: "Get yourself ready first, we can't go to see the young lady like this!"
Upon hearing this, the trio jumped up immediately as if they had been electrocuted, their eyes widened and their faces were filled with disbelief.
"what?"
"The young lady has also come to Silver Mountain?"
Xiao Sanlang said: "Of course, there are things that the young lady needs in Silver Mountain!"
"It's really the eldest lady!" The trio were very excited. They hadn't seen the eldest lady since the Quartz Conference, nor had they had any news about her. If the gold cards in their hands were not still usable, they would have suspected that they were being disliked again!
Now that I suddenly heard the news that the eldest lady had appeared, how could I remain calm and not get excited!
Yamato and Kozaburo gathered themselves together and turned to leave, "If you want to see the young lady, then come with us!"
“Oh, oh, right here… wait for us!” The trio quickly tidied themselves and followed.
Although there are still obvious scratches on his face, when he meets the young lady he will just say that he was scratched by a branch on the road.
When they arrived at the Silver Mountain Rocket Team Base, Qingyi happened to be carrying Kira and his men into the forest.
Because she thought about it carefully later and felt that there was something she had overlooked, so she had to go and take another look.
The duo originally wanted the trio to wait until Qingyi came back, but Musashi and the others didn't want to wait. They were eager to meet the eldest lady and confirm whether they were disliked.
So, the three of them begged the base staff to take them to the forest to find Qingyi, and the duo had no choice but to follow.
………………
In the Baiyin Mountain Forest, Qingyi looked at the dusty people in front of her, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
She originally thought that Yamato and Kozaburo had something to ask her, but she didn't expect that Musashi and the others would also come, and there were obvious scratches on their faces.
These two teams usually don't get along with each other. Could it be that they have fought each other when they met?
I have to say, Qingyi's truth is revealed.
These two groups don’t know yet that their eldest daughter has seen through them!
Feeling Qingyi's strange gaze lingering on their faces, Musashi and the others lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Musashi: "Miss, these are all scratched by branches. We were just too anxious to see you, so we left in a hurry and didn't pay attention!"
