An elf, a genius scientist who traveled from the world of One Piece.

Chapter 49 Yishu Asheng, You Are So Gentle

The next day, in a corner of an alley at a crossroads in Azure City.

"According to prior investigation, the cars of the Cai Shenye Group will be coming from over there in five minutes."

Holding a laptop, he pointed to the road diagonally opposite Su Sheng.

"Is it okay? This is the city center, shouldn't we choose a more secluded spot to start...?"

Yishu hesitated for a moment.

"We need to make a big enough scene so that more people know that Pear Blossom is on our side."

As he spoke, Su Sheng handed a rather ornate mask to Li Hua.

"I'm in a rush and don't have time to ask for your opinion. What do you think of this style?"

Pear Blossom took the mask and placed it on her face, while simultaneously putting on gloves to cover her fingerprints, and said calmly:

"That's enough. We're playing bad guys anyway, why should we care about our appearance?"

Yishu rolled his eyes, feeling like he'd been caught in the crossfire.

I spent a long time designing this "phantom thief outfit".

After Lihua finished her transformation, Su Sheng looked her up and down.

"Alright, best of luck on your journey, our new comrade."

Su Sheng smiled and said

companion?

Upon hearing this word, Pear Blossom's eyes flickered slightly, but she did not speak.

"By the way, Pear Blossom, do you want to come up with code names for the two of us? Even Asheng has a code name, and we feel like we're being overshadowed by him since we don't."

Yishu is still struggling with the matter of nicknames.

"They're here."

Su Sheng reminded him.

Pear Blossom secretly rolled her eyes, mentally cursing "crazy" before releasing Deruby, her gaze fixed on the truck with the Cai Shenye Foundation logo behind the zebra crossing.

"Stored Flame Strike".

Pear Blossom gave the order in a cold voice.

Deruby's body burst into flames, turning into a fireball that slammed into the truck bed.

Instantly, the drivers of other vehicles around, as well as the pedestrians crossing the zebra crossing, were all dumbfounded.

"Hey! What are you doing!?"

The employee of the Cai Shenye Group in the driver's seat shouted and took out a Poké Ball to stop Rika.

At this moment, Pear Blossom coldly took out a remote control with an antenna from her collar.

"That's a magnetic remote control!?"

The driver's expression changed drastically.

"Dairubi, Flamethrower!"

Pear Blossom spoke in a cold voice.

Upon landing, Deruby opened his mouth again, further scorching and enlarging the hole in the truck bed.

Inside were the Circle Bears and Dark Ravens who hadn't been rescued the previous two nights!

That's right, they were still packed up by Li Yue and given to the Cai Shenye Foundation.

But the intelligence was once again obtained by Su Sheng, or more precisely, by Sakaki.

Originally, Su Sheng had no intention of getting involved in this matter.

After all, it doesn't matter whether the Cai family genuinely wanted to find new homes for Quan Quan Xiong and the others, or whether they had some other unknown motive.

This kind of thing happens every day all over the world.

I can't even manage it myself.

However, since Rinka wants to join, let's use her as practice.

The teddy bears, cubs, and ravens trapped inside the train carriage were completely bewildered.

"Everyone, run!"

Pear Blossom waved and shouted.

The circly bear twitched its nose.

They confirmed that the masked female human in front of them was one of the three people who had rescued them two days ago.

Without further hesitation, he grabbed his children and jumped out of the carriage with the Dark Ravens.

……

……

Meanwhile, Su Sheng was also busy outside.

In a public phone booth across the street, Su Sheng, holding the receiver, shouted in a feigned anxious tone:

"This is terrifying! A robbery is happening! Officer Jenny! Come quick!"

"Don't be afraid, little brother, we'll be dispatching the police right away!"

After ending his call with Officer Jenny, Su Sheng called the television station.

"Hello, is this Azure TV? I have some juicy news to share..."

……

When Su Sheng came out, Yi Shu, who was guarding the door, couldn't help but chuckle mischievously:

"Asheng, you're getting worse and worse. Before, you only threatened me with videos, but now you're forcing me into prostitution, aren't you?"

By having Pear Blossom 'rob' in public, she earned her "ticket" to join Su Sheng's group.

This just proves what Su Shengqian said in his previous life: "Doing 100 good things with the boss is not as good as doing one bad thing with the boss."

How can you put my mind at ease if we don't share a secret?

Su Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to this guy.

"Well, I have another question."

Yishu remembered something else, and without waiting for Su Sheng to answer, she began to speak:

"Since we want to find something on her, we don't necessarily have to make her wear a mask, do we? Wouldn't it be better to let her act without makeup? At that point, she'll have no choice but to join us. If she acts with a mask on, the alliance won't know who she is, and she might still betray us in the future."

What Yishu said makes a lot of sense.

If we let Pear Blossom act with her true colors, we can push her into an even more desperate situation.

In this way, she had nowhere else to go but Su Sheng's place.

It's safer to cooperate, or to put it bluntly, it's more reassuring to control.

Yi Shu didn't think that Su Sheng, with his intelligence, would have thought of this.

"There's no need to push a young girl to such an extreme."

Su Shengping said calmly.

If you don't let Pear Blossom wear a mask, you're truly driving her to the brink of despair.

Since their true colors haven't been revealed, there's still some room for maneuver in the future.

"Huh~ You were having so much fun kicking Bishas earlier, but I didn't expect you to be so gentle, Asheng."

Yishu looked very serious.

"Um?"

"You are so gentle."

"what?"

"She's simply the gentlest person in the world..."

"ghost!"

Doo-woo~ Doo-woo~ Doo-woo-woo~

The sirens grew clearer; Officer Jenny's team had arrived.

Su Sheng and Yi Shu looked outside.

Not only Officer Jenny, but also TV reporters came.

This is exactly the effect I wanted.

……

……

On the other side, at the Zhanlan City Police Station.

Damaranchi slapped his forehead, feeling utterly bewildered, as he looked at the group of police officers who were bowing their heads and avoiding his gaze.

"I don't even know what to say to you guys, you fell into such a simple trap."

In the end, the kind-hearted Damaranchi didn't utter a curse; all his complaints turned into helpless sighs.

"I'm sorry, Master, but when we heard the name Joker, we all rushed out without thinking."

Captain Officer Jenny looked ashamed.

"Why would the Joker kidnap a little girl? Did he figure out she knew who he was and want to silence her?"

A-Du frowned and asked suspiciously.

"this……"

Captain Officer Jenny panicked even more.

Murder? No, surely not?

During the Golden Train incident, the Joker actually saved people.

"A news brief..."

Just then, the television screen in the police station suddenly changed, and the female host's voice came through:

"Now, a mysterious female robber carrying a Houndoom has attacked the Gentleman Foundation's transport vehicle, openly robbing Pokémon. The female robber is estimated to be between 10 and 12 years old and possesses a magnetic remote control invented by Team Rocket executive Joker, confirming that she is also a member of Team Rocket..."

I saw the masked woman directing Deruby to wreak havoc on the battlefield on the news live stream.

The atmosphere became quite awkward.
