I'm popularizing ecology in the Pokémon world.

Chapter 92 Inhuman and Depraved

After the investigators left, Chen Mu first comforted Lian Ying, who was experiencing extreme joy and sorrow and whose mood had plummeted.

After checking on Eevee's condition, Chen Mu saw that she had reverted to her Eevee form and was playing and frolicking with Lianying's Growlithe. Only then did Chen Mu feel relieved.

After that, he finally had the opportunity to have a proper conversation with Bissell about what had happened.

"I encountered another Pokémon attack in the sea, not Kingdra, but a Sagamosaurus, and I suspect it was a Pokémon trained by a human trainer."

Bisques showed no surprise at all. "I guessed it. When you came back, Shinkawa Akira and the others reported that a third force had appeared on the battlefield."

"So this storm really was—"

Bisques confirmed Chen Mu's guess, "That's right, it must have been designed by someone."

After a long silence, Chen Mu finally spoke, asking, "Why would anyone want to do this? Do you have any clues?"

Bisque felt her pockets, probably wanting to take out a cigarette, but realizing she was in a hospital room, she ended up putting a toothpick in her mouth instead before continuing.

"Our current guess is that the group behind this is most likely targeting Hualan Fish Farm."

"Hua Lan Fish Farm?" This answer was somewhat unexpected for Chen Mu.

He thought the Saint-Tiannu had offended someone, or that the ship had some unique flag-planting technique. "That's right," Bisques continued, "Our destination is Cerulean City. At this time, at least the vast majority of the tourists on this ship are there to visit the soon-to-reopen Cerulean Fishing Grounds."

The ship was not without international businessmen like Bobby Dick, who came with the purpose of business negotiations to seek cooperation with the Hualan Fish Farm.

If this ship really sinks, the cooperation in the fishing grounds will inevitably be severely impacted.

Another crucial factor is that the closure of the Cerulean Fish Farm was precisely because overfishing by humans triggered a collective resistance and revenge from the wild creatures of the ocean, which alerted the world and prompted a new round of ecological protection for quartz that lasted for more than a decade.

If, during this crucial window of opportunity as the fishing grounds are about to reopen, another major maritime disaster were to occur—a wild animal capsizing a cruise ship and killing a large number of human tourists—you can probably guess what would happen, right?

Chen Mu instantly understood, and was so shocked that a chill ran down his spine.

He suddenly recalled a memory from shortly after setting sail, when the ship was still in the whirlpools of the sea—back then, he was simply watching a group of wild elves collectively hunting a school of wakizashi, yet some people exaggerated it into a protest or revenge by the wild elves!

In an instant, he understood everything!

"No wonder! No wonder the mastermind went to such lengths to design such a complicated accident!"

Those lurking in the shadows don't just want the ship to sink; they want it to capsize at the hands of wild Pokémon!

The man in black had the ability to infiltrate, but he always acted alone.

After taking action, the first compartment the infiltrators blew up was not the sealed compartment at the bottom of the ship, but the engine room;

Despite the presence of Pokémon lurking underwater, they never chose to attack the Saint-Tiannu directly, but instead opted to take a long detour to provoke Kingdra in the deep sea!

It turns out that all these seemingly illogical practices actually have underlying reasons!

The mastermind behind the scenes wanted more than just a shipwreck; he wanted a massive shipwreck caused by wild Pokémon "taking revenge on humanity."

As long as the Saint-Tiannu sinks in the storm and tsunami caused by the wild Thorn Dragon King, they will definitely be able to make up news about it with ease afterward!

"These bastards!" Chen Mu clenched his fist in anger.

The Chansey beside him had no idea what the humans were talking about. It simply leaned closer gently, covered Chen Mu's fist with its little paws, and softly hummed a peaceful lullaby.

Looking at the kind Chansey by the bedside, and then at the Eevee rubbing against Growlithe and happily playing with a ball of yarn not far away, the more Chen Mu felt the warmth of this scene, the more he felt the madness of the person behind it all!

The interaction between humans and Pokémon can be warm, gentle, harmonious and peaceful, yet there are always people who presumptuously treat both as tools and make such cold-blooded and cruel calculations!

"These people deserve to die!" Chen Mu rarely got this angry.

After a while, once his emotions had calmed down, Chen Mu asked, "Then what did you mean by saying the trouble isn't over yet?"

"Although the storm has ended, we have received more support and have safely weathered the storm," Bishkew sighed. "Throughout the whole process, we have not actually captured any of the trainers who were behind the scenes."

Judging from the fact that you were reported the moment you returned to the ship, the enemy likely still has personnel on board the Saint-Tiannu.

Chen Mu couldn't help but force a bitter smile.

Now he realized that he might actually have been marked.

"Those investigators, Bisques shook her head. "Investigators report directly to the Alliance headquarters, and most of this year's investigators are directly under the command of Champion Lance, so the probability of them being infiltrated is not high."

They're just a bit inflexible in their approach.

And as you know, because criminal organizations are more active in the Kanto region, and illegal underground experiments are more rampant compared to other leagues, they are always more sensitive to Pokémon suspected of being experimentally modified or harmed.

Upon hearing Bisikuisi's words, Chen Mu's expression couldn't help but become somewhat troubled.

He almost couldn't help but ask: "Sister, is it really appropriate for you to say that?"

The leader of your dojo is a key member of these "active groups"!

Isn't the existence of Team Rocket the most important reason for the rampant illegal underground experiments in Kanto?

Even the current situation of Eevee has precedents in Team Rocket's lab. In a manga special, Team Rocket's lab genetically modified an animal that could withstand fire, water, and other elements.

A special Eevee that can freely switch between its three evolutionary forms (electric, electric, and electric).

This Eevee was later rescued by Red and became one of Red's main fighters, and was named Abu.

However, in the manga, Abu later evolved into Espeon on its own, and from then on lost the ability to freely switch between its three forms.

However, judging from Bisque's current composed demeanor, this woman doesn't shy away from talking badly about the financial backer of her dojo.

The woman, a former soldier, is straightforward and speaks her mind without any reservations.

He even bluntly stated, "Don't worry, Professor Chen, you've done us a great favor. As long as you're on the ship for one more day..."

I will never let the investigators take you away!

Before you disembark, I will help you contact Ma Zhitu and Li Jia, and we'll see if the two owners can protect you.

Don't worry too much. Even if they did some experimental modifications, it's not a big deal. We, the Fire—our Vermilion Gym, have plenty of experience in exonerating people!

As she spoke, she gave Chen Mu a hearty smile, her teeth so white they seemed to gleam like a cross in the sunlight.

Chen Mu was grateful for her kindness, but he still had to clear his name.

"I didn't conduct any modification experiments on Eevee! It was an accident! Although I'm not entirely sure why she evolved this way, she's safe and healthy, and I absolutely didn't force her!"

This needs to be made clear!

Little Eevee is different from Abu! She can now switch between her multiple forms without experiencing any pain!

After a moment of silence, Bisquerade only said one sentence.

"oh."

"Give me a more trustworthy answer, please!"
