Pokémon: Having just completed the Pokédex, I'm now traversing the world of Beast Taming.

Early the next morning.

As dawn broke, she sat up, still half asleep. Her nose twitched; there was a smell of smoke.

Chi Hong was sitting on the balcony, smoking, his hair a mess and his eyes bloodshot.

"Are you regretting having the desire to steal but lacking the courage, young man?"

"Or is he suffering because his second brother isn't doing well enough?"

"I heard that virgins often fail the first time, what's that saying again..."

"Your second brother will not respond to your heart."

Chaoxia jumped off the bed, hugged Chi Hong from behind, and asked while resting her head on his shoulder.

"hateful..."

"If anything happens to my second brother, it will definitely be related to Asagiri-nee!"

Chi Hong was on the verge of tears, but he knew in reality that it had nothing to do with his second brother. He just couldn't bring himself to do it when he looked at Chaoxia's face.

"I'm worse than an animal!" Chi Hong cursed himself fiercely.

"Okay, okay, don't be sad anymore, there'll be another chance next time!"

Chaoxia comforted Chi Hong, and then the two left the hotel.

Just as Chi Hong stepped out of the hotel, his phone rang. He took it out and saw it was Chao Wen.

"I thought it was your sister, you scared me!" Chi Hong showed his phone to Chaoxia, then calmly answered the call.

"???"

"Wouldn't it be even more awkward if it was Dad calling?"

The morning glow was a little puzzled.

"Fuck you, Chi Hong! I've been so good to you, and you slept with my daughter, huh? You think I won't come and kill you right now?!"

"I told you to go check on her, not to lure her into a hotel! Huh?"

As soon as the call connected, Chaowen's scathing curses rang out, making Chi Hong's eardrums feel uncomfortable.

"I'm sorry, I'll go explain to my father-in-law."

Chi Hong covered the microphone, greeted Zhao Xia, and then walked to the side.

"Uncle Chao, you're wrong about that."

"Wouldn't it be even worse if I slept with someone other than your daughter?!"

As soon as Chi Hong uttered those words, Chao Wen on the other end of the phone immediately fell silent.

Damn, you're right!

Chaowen has absolutely no way to refute this!

If Chi Hong really slept with another woman, that would be the most disappointing thing for him.

"Don't forget what will happen in a couple of days; assassins have already headed to Yanjing."

"Be careful, assassins aren't like those innocent college students in your university."

"They are all in danger."

"Okay," Chi Hong replied with a smile. "Uncle Chao, don't worry. If they cause trouble, I'll show them my danger level!"

"Let's see who's tougher."

"In short, be more careful, and it's always better to be safe than sorry."

"For the sake of Chaoxia, please don't die." After saying this, Chaowen hung up the phone and went off to grieve alone.

Chi Hong calmly put his phone in his pocket, raised his hand to touch his head, and then grabbed the sleeping fierce rat.

My hair seems to have grown longer again.

"How about we go to my place today and meet my mom?"

Zhaoxia, carrying her bag in both hands, looked at Chi Hong with a smile brimming with youthful energy.

"it is good."

Chi Hong nodded and was about to walk towards Zhaoxia when he suddenly turned his head sharply to look.

In his line of sight, a young man with pink hair, dressed in sportswear, was watching him.

"........."

Chi Hong strode over, stood in front of the pink-haired man, stared at him expressionlessly, and cursed, "What are you looking at, you little brat?"

"Hello, it's nice to meet you again, Crimson."

The man smiled and extended his hand, which almost certainly indicated that he was a top candidate for assassination.

Chi Hong's expression instantly turned grim. He knew his true identity, which meant...

He also understood the relationship between Chaoxia and him.

"Chi Hong, what's wrong? Is it a friend?" Zhao Xia walked over with a puzzled look and asked the pink-haired girl.

Pink-haired girl glanced at the sunrise and then gave Crimson a smile that felt very strange.

"Yes."

"You go back first, I'll catch up with him."

Chi Hong said softly, his tone very serious.

The good thing about Chaoxia is that she's not a troublemaker, and she understands Chi Hong perfectly!

"it is good."

Without saying anything more, Chaoxia turned and left, then took out her phone and sent a message to her mother.

Her mother was a professor at Yenching University, so her abilities were certainly not weak.

"I remember you, that hair color, you're the man in the suit."

"It's too crowded here. How about we go somewhere else to talk?"

Chi Hong stared at the pink-haired girl, his tone calm, seemingly without any emotional fluctuation.

In fact, if there weren't so many passersby here, he would have already made his move!

"No."

"You want to fight me, right? But I don't want to fight you."

"I'm just here to confirm my companions' location and get to know them beforehand. Please don't be so hostile towards me."

"My uncle and I are not the same kind of people."

Pink Hair reached out his hand to Chi Hong again as he spoke.

"How did you find out about me?" Chi Hong asked without shaking his hand.

"You can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep. Who is Crimson is easy to find out."

"The reason you've managed to stay hidden until now is because the key person doesn't want to expose you."

"That person is protecting you."

"Crimson, I must say your methods of secrecy are far superior to mine. I would simply silence you."

The pink-haired girl, still smiling, actually started praising him.

"Give me one reason not to kill you..."

Chi Hong's expression darkened. He had no reason not to kill this guy who knew his background and dared to come to see him so openly.

"You're kidding me!"

"Generally speaking, this sentence actually means 'I'm going to kill you,' don't think I don't know that."

"If there were no one here... no, if there were even fewer people, you would have already made your move, wouldn't you?"

Pink Hair seemed certain that Chi Hong wouldn't make a move, and remained calm.

You're half right...

No sooner had Chi Hong finished speaking than a gust of wind rushed straight towards the pink-haired man's face!

boom! !

Behind the pink-haired creature, a claw grabbed Lucario's fist.

"Mega Evolution".

Now that he had started, Chi Hong had no intention of stopping; he was determined to finish off this pink-haired guy in one fell swoop!

"What are you doing?"

Just as tensions were about to rise, a cute yet dull voice rang out.

Out of the corner of his eye, Chi Hong noticed that a little girl with pigtails had gotten very close to them.

"I am Ye Rou, his name is Shen Yuzhi, and yours is Shen Yuzhi."

"Crimson, what's your name?"

The girl took a step closer to Chi Hong, her big eyes fixed on him.

"Do the seeds of an assassination organization not even bother with disguises, but instead meet openly?"

Chi Hong asked, frowning.

However, Lucario doesn't care about this or that.

What are you babbling about?

Chi Hong didn't say to stop!

Take this bullet punch!

boom! !

Lucario punched the pink-haired Shen Yuzhi's pet on the head, sending it flying backward and cracking the wall behind it.

Two slits appeared in the black, helmet-like tissue on his head.
