Pokémon: Did you play Pokémon today?

Chapter 339 "Handsome Researcher: Should I also say to you...long time no see?"

"So exciting! So exciting!"

Qi Shu, who witnessed the entire "standoff" drama, didn't dare to breathe loudly.

She only let out a long sigh of relief after Xiao Yin left.

"Shouting at Boss Sakaki like that, even grabbing his collar and stuff, he truly is our formidable rival!"

She huddled up in the gaming chair, looking exactly like a frightened gopher.

"Holy crap! Gin grabbed Sakaki by the collar and yelled?! How can this kid be so brave?!"

"Judging from this conversation—not only do Gin and Sakaki know each other, but their relationship is quite close?! Just how many secrets is Gin hiding?!"

"Haven't you realized how serious the problem is? Giovanni! That Giovanni! He's being yelled at and questioned like that by Gin, and he doesn't dare utter a single word?!"

"So, did Giovanni disband Team Rocket because he was disheartened after losing to Red? Or—to protect Silver and keep him away from the darkness?"

"Sakaki: Failure, training, a stronger organization — I bet five cents he'll definitely be a super big boss returning in the future!"

"This plot depth—Mr. Salty Fish, are you really a game developer?!"

Seeing that Sakaki seemed to have composed himself of his unusually disheveled state and resumed his steady steps, preparing to leave.

Qi Shu then quietly swallowed, praying that he would leave quickly.

But the next second, something unexpected happened!

Sakaki, who had already taken a few steps, suddenly turned his head without warning.

His gaze was fixed on the bushes where the little strange tree was hiding!

There wasn't even any searching or confirmation action!

Buzz—

The entire game screen suddenly started shaking violently!

A chilling buzzing sound instantly filled the live stream audio!

In the blink of an eye!

The dense bushes that had been blocking the little tree vanished without a trace, as if sliced ​​apart by an invisible blade!

Instead, a sharp, poisoned needle hovered in front of her neck!

A large bee with icy eyes appeared in front of her, its deadly stinger firmly pressed against her vulnerable throat!

Just one more inch forward and it will be a pierce!

This sudden death threat caught Qi Shu and all the viewers completely off guard!

The live stream chat even went blank for a moment.

"Sakaki: ———You're not from the League? Who are you?"

Sakaki's voice was extremely cold, a stark contrast to the complex emotions he had just expressed when facing Gintoki.

Before the stunned Qishu could react, he had already walked up to the completely exposed little Qishu.

The tall figure cast a shadow that completely enveloped the little strange tree.

The terrifying oppressive aura emanating from the king of the dark world almost suffocated Qi Shu through the screen.

"Sakaki: It seems—you recognize me?"

"Sakaki: But unfortunately, you heard things you shouldn't have heard and saw people you shouldn't have seen —"

"Sakaki: I'm sorry————"

His voice gradually lowered, and his last words were so soft they were almost a whisper.

Instead, deadly poison needles were used!

A chilling murderous intent emanated from him!

"Wait a moment!!!"

Qishu screamed in terror!

She had a strong premonition that if she didn't do something right now, this ruthless NPC, Giovanni, would really let Beedrill take care of "her"!

This is no joke!

"Little Silver! I know Little Silver!"

Desperate, Qi Shu resorted to any means necessary, shouting into the microphone!

She actually had no idea what the relationship between Gin and Sakaki was, but she had no choice!

Before the handsome researcher arrived, she had no choice but to gamble on the connection she had just discovered!

Clearly, she made the right gamble at this critical moment!

"Sakaki: Gin-chan?!"

Sakaki's tone changed instantly, revealing a hint of undisguised impatience!

He suddenly waved his hand, and the giant bee retreated to his side, but its cold compound eyes remained locked on the little strange tree.

"Sakaki: Who are you?! Why are you involved with him?! Tell me!"

"I—I—"

I don't know if it's because Sakaki's pressure is too great at the moment, or if Kiki himself feels that his understanding is a bit untenable.

For a moment, she stammered, unsure how to organize her thoughts.

I can't just tell the truth, can I?

They said I accused Silver of stealing Pokémon and even provided his name, putting him on the League's wanted list?

Oh, right, including the first battle, I think I also commanded my Pokémon to beat him up —

Kiju's hesitant reaction clearly aroused greater suspicion in Sakaki and —

A hint of impatience.

He frowned, his eyes regaining their coldness.

Without a word, the giant bee transformed into a deadly yellow lightning bolt, lunging towards the little strange tree!

The speed is faster than the naked eye can perceive!

A plot-driven death?!

The strange tree caught everyone off guard!

There wasn't even time to press any buttons; I could only instinctively close my eyes and wait for the screen to go black.

but.

The expected failure notification tone did not come.

"Handsome Researcher: Sigh—you're such a worry, but thankfully, I made it in time."

A warm and gentle familiar male voice rang out in the game's sound effects.

Qi Shu's heart skipped a beat uncontrollably!

She suddenly opened her eyes!

What came into view was a tall and slender figure.

He stood there, completely shielding her behind him.

It was the handsome researcher she had been longing for!

"O!!!!!"

"He's here! He's here! He's coming with his background music!"

"Every single time! It's the most crucial moment! The timing of this performance is so perfect, it makes me want to cry!"

"Hero saves the damsel in distress! Standard plot! But why don't I feel jealous at all? I even think it's so cool!"

"Because you're a guy (doge emoji)."

"Can't the guy in front of me think it's handsome?"

In the picture, the handsome researcher has his hands in his pockets, and the profile of his face looks particularly dashing in the sunlight.

He didn't even turn around; his gaze went past the poisoned needle that was almost poking his nose and looked at Sakaki opposite him.

"Handsome Researcher: Long time no see, Sakaki."

"Handsome Researcher: Wasn't it a bit too much to hit my—little assistant—aren't you being a bit too rough?"

"Waaaaah~ Handsome researcher~"

Overwhelmed by the immense joy and grievance of escaping from a desperate situation, Qi Shu abandoned all sense of shame and launched a surprise attack on the little Qi Shu.

She clung to the handsome researcher's back from behind, hugged his legs, and began to "cry" without any regard for her image.

"He bullied me~ He was so scary just now, he almost killed me~ You have to stand up for me~"

"No!!! My Kiju-chan!!! How could you do this! I strongly suggest removing the handsome researcher character!"

"Why? Why?! Kiju-chan has never even tried to act cute with us! Ugly researcher! You deserve to die!"

"Draw your sword, handsome researcher! For Kiju-chan's smile!"

"That's how girls fall in love. Kiki only needs to think about the handsome researcher, but we fans have to think about many more things."

"Betrayal! Utter betrayal!"

The barrage of comments instantly turned into a sea of ​​"envy, jealousy, and hatred."

The handsome researcher, who was being used as a human-shaped accessory, seemed to have a headache. He gently patted the little strange tree, signaling her to come down.

But how could Qishu let go at this moment?

She's caused such a huge mess, and she still hasn't found the Masked Man, but she's also provoked a terrifying being like Giovanni!

Now that our only lifeline and hope for breaking the deadlock are right in front of us, how could we possibly let go so easily?

Instead, she manipulated the little tree to hug it even tighter, and even tried to wrap her legs around it (unsuccessfully).

"Sakaki:————"

Sakaki's lips twitched as he watched this scene.

In the end, he said nothing, but silently recalled the Beedrill that was poised to attack with a Poké Ball.

Then he turned around and walked deeper into the forest.

Only his deep voice drifted slowly through the forest.

"Sakaki: ————I promised you I wouldn't cause any more trouble."

"Sakaki: I hope you will keep your promise."

"Sakaki: Take good care of him for me."

It wasn't until Sakai's figure completely disappeared at the end of the forest that they confirmed there was no longer any danger around.

Only then did Qishu, still feeling unsatisfied, slowly slide down from the handsome researcher's back.

"Handsome Researcher: Sigh————"

The handsome researcher turned around, looked at the small head in front of him, and sighed helplessly.

"Handsome Researcher: So, what trouble have you run into this time? Do you need my help?"

"Oh! Right! I almost forgot about the important matter!"

Qi Shu slammed his fist down and quickly explained what had happened.

From the moment she accidentally awakens Celebi, to the sudden appearance of the Otsu-men man who kidnaps Celebi, and then to the moment she accidentally witnesses Sakai and Gin's conversation.

"Tsk, I can't stand it. Why does Kisaki-chan always seem a bit dim-witted whenever she meets a handsome researcher?"

"Hey, that's called 'gap moe' (a Japanese term for unexpected charm or cuteness)! Don't you know that?!"

"Handsome researcher! Come out and fight me one-on-one if you dare!"

"Sakai: Who just said they wanted a one-on-one fight? My Beedrill isn't far away yet."

"TD"

Ignoring the daily "outrageous comments" in the bullet screen, Kiju looked at the handsome researcher with eyes that sparkled like stars.

She hopes that San Neng can create another miracle, help her find the Otsu-man, and rescue the Celebi.

"Handsome Researcher: Hmm—you mean, you accidentally summoned a Celebi, and then a mysterious masked man appeared and kidnapped it, and you followed the Three Transcendents here?"

"Mmm! That's it! Handsome researcher, you're so smart!"

The strange tree nodded vigorously.

The handsome researcher stroked his chin thoughtfully, and after a moment, he looked as if he had just realized something.

"Handsome Researcher: I see—I understand now."

San gave Xiao Qishu a meaningful look and continued speaking eloquently.

"Handsome Researcher: Don't worry, that masked man—Three—with Celebi by his side, won't be too far from you."

"Handsome Researcher: Could I see that silver feather?"

Upon hearing this, Qishu immediately complied, controlling Little Qishu to take out the Silver Feather from its backpack.

The handsome researcher took the feather and examined it carefully in his hand.

The next moment, a soft, pale golden light slowly emerged from the three palms and flowed into the silver feather like water!

Buzz—

Suddenly, an unusual phenomenon occurred!

The silver feathers, which had been emitting only a faint glow, suddenly burst forth with a dazzling silver radiance!

Immediately afterwards, a silver thread extended from the tip of the feather, as if it had a life of its own, pointing in a specific direction deep into the forest!

"Handsome Researcher: Found him! He's in that direction, and—it seems he's stopped!"

The handsome researcher let out a low shout and made a move that surprised both Qishu and all the spectators.

With a swift backhand motion, he easily hoisted the still-dazed Little Qishu onto his shoulder, just like carrying a sack of flour!

"Wow!"

Qi Shu screamed in surprise in front of the screen.

Then, the handsome researcher lightly pushed off the ground!

call!

The three whole bangs defied gravity and lightly leaped onto the broad branches of a large tree next to them.

With each takeoff and landing, the surrounding scenery rushed past.

The three of them actually crossed a long distance from the edge of Highway 1 and went deep into the heart of Viridian Forest!

The speed and manner of this non-stop movement once again left the audience in Zhixian speechless.

"Ugh—I'm so dizzy—couldn't you have used a more elegant princess carry?!"

Qishu, watching the jarring, disorienting view, tried to suppress his dizziness while muttering complaints into the microphone.

She tried to maintain her image as a beautiful young woman, but it's clear that her image is completely gone.

"Holy crap! What's with this way of moving?!"

"666, who just said they wanted to challenge the researcher to a one-on-one fight? Come out here! I promise I won't laugh at you!"

"With that kind of physical ability, no wonder he can chat and laugh with Sakai so easily—Sakai should be the one who's scared—"

"Elegance? You're about to die, and you still want to be elegant? This researcher is prioritizing probability above all else!"

"Am I the only one who noticed the researcher parkouring through the treetops as if it were flat ground? That sense of balance and core strength—if he were in bed—"

"Regarding the fact that my push is a super-strong player"

With a light landing, the handsome researcher finally stopped and put the little strange tree off his shoulder.

After disappearing for a long time, Henry has finally reappeared in the game screen.

San stood with his back to Liang Pang in a small patch of woods, on the ground, one hand tightly gripping a gold and silver ball, the whole scene radiating an aura of anxiety and unease.

"It's Three! Celebi is inside that Poké Ball in Three's hand!"

Qi Shu immediately complained to the handsome researcher.

The man behind him clearly noticed the movement behind him and suddenly turned around.

But San's gaze bypassed the character he was controlling, the little tree, and stared incredulously at the handsome researcher!

"The Man in the Other Side: You?! What are you doing here?! At this time—you shouldn't be here—this is impossible!"

Three's voice came through the mask, carrying an undisguised intense shock and a sense of dread!

"Handsome Researcher: Should I say to you—long time no see?"

The handsome researcher responded in a relaxed tone.

But the next moment, the smile on San's face vanished instantly, and an invisible sense of oppression spread over Jun.

"Handsome Researcher: But before that—hand over the Silavi, and then go back to where you belong."

As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle ripple spread across the three of them, just like the surface of water.

Immediately afterwards, a figure entirely in lovely pink silently peeked out from the center of the ripples.

It first affectionately nuzzled the handsome researcher's cheek before hovering beside him.

With curious, wide eyes, she looked at the masked man opposite her, who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.

It is the Mythical Pokémon—Mew!
