Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Whether you want to wear it or not, you have to wear it.

"Ahem. Since that's the case..."

"Xia Yan is on alert!"

Suddenly, Officer Jenny walked over with her Growlithe dog, looking very serious.

"What's wrong, Miss Officer Jenny?"

Then Miss Officer Jenny looked around and took out a small, transparent plastic bag containing a tiny, pocket-sized device.

"This is..." Kutheroschi looked puzzled upon seeing this.

But Xia Yan's expression turned serious, and Miss Officer Jenny, seeing his expression, understood that Xia Yan "understood."

Slowly turning the bag, the bright red "r" on the back of the miniature instrument was revealed to Kutheroschi.

"The Rockets?!"

Kutherloschi almost shouted it out, but fortunately he reacted quickly and shut his mouth.

This miniature device was not lost by Shin-Niao and his team, but was deliberately placed in a corner by Xia Yan. He had asked a member of the "Shin-Niao Matrix" team for it, and the device still contained that person's scent.

Moreover, Xia Yan wasn't exactly faking it, since the Rockets should be inside the Vladali Institute right now.

“Researcher Kutherlosch, it seems you know as well. So, based on my guess, the explosion caused by your improper experiment might not be due to my misoperation, but rather because someone is sabotaging it, don’t you think?” Xia Yan raised an eyebrow and looked at Kutherlosch.

At this moment, Kutherosch's expression was even more unsightly than if he were crying.

On the one hand, this would give Xia Yan and his group a legitimate reason to search the research institute.

On the other hand, he was worried that Team Rocket members had actually infiltrated the research institute without his knowledge.

Although the onlookers didn't hear what Kutheroschi said clearly, they quickly realized what he meant.

This explosion was not an accident; it was intentional. Otherwise, Xia Yan, Officer Jenny, and Kutherros wouldn't have had those expressions.

Xia Yan glanced at him subtly.

As long as the Vladali Institute wants to remain aligned with the Alliance, they will have no choice but to endure this investigation, whether they like it or not.

of course.

If they were to jump out and resist now, Xia Yan would absolutely welcome it with open arms.

finally.

Kutherloschi was relatively rational and forced himself to endure it.

Disappointment flashed in Xia Yan's eyes when he failed to witness Xia Yan's sudden outburst.

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset and shouted loudly, "All investigators, follow me inside!"

"Yes! Mr. Xia Yan!"

Suddenly, a search team of dozens of people appeared out of nowhere.

Dressed in neat black clothes and a cloak, and accompanied by elves of various shapes, they looked very powerful.

Do you really think Xia Yan slept for nothing all night?

He was giving Vladali some time so that he could leave the institute "with peace of mind".

This also gives the investigators some time to gather a decent fighting force.

Although he was only a junior investigator, his mentor was Kikuko, and he was also a superintendent in Interpol, which gave him that kind of authority.

This is also to prevent Team Flare from recklessly resisting and causing unnecessary damage.

At the same time, find a group of "witnesses".

If they actually find something at the Vladali Institute, then someone will be there to testify for him.

He spent the whole night thinking about many things.

But when he saw this group of investigators, Kutherloschi's face really darkened.

If Xia Yan were alone, he might be able to fool them, but with so many investigators arriving all at once, he can't fool them anymore.

"Miss Officer Jenny, please maintain order at the scene. We're going in to take a look."

“No problem, Inspector Xia Yan, leave this to us,” Miss Officer Jenny promised, patting her chest.

Looking at it this way, it seems that this time it has become a collaboration between the Investigation Department and the Alliance Department of Justice.

"Oh, right." Xia Yan looked at Kutheroschi who was about to follow and said, "Researcher Kutheroschi, there may be unpredictable dangers inside. You and these researchers should stay outside for the time being. This is for your safety."

They particularly emphasized the word "safety".

Kutherloschi looked distressed and hurriedly said, "Inspector Xia Yan, there are many valuable instruments inside. As the temporary person in charge, I need to go with you to feel at ease."

Xia Yan patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'm a researcher too. I know what I can and cannot touch, and I won't cause any unnecessary losses to the research institute."

Then he gave Miss Officer Jenny a look, and without turning his head, led the team inside.

Miss Officer Jenny understood and stopped Kutherrosch, reassuring him, "Mr. Kutherrosch, don't worry, Inspector Xia Yan is very professional."

Don't worry...

Kutherloschi really wanted to cry in front of Officer Jenny.

Don't worry.

“Miss Junsa, may I make a phone call to inform the representative?” Kutheroschi pointed to his phone.

After a slight hesitation, Miss Officer Jenny nodded.

After all, in her view, Kutherloschi was not a suspect, but rather a potential victim.

Kutherloschi breathed a slight sigh of relief, quickly walked to the side, covered his phone, and made a call.

And what about Xia Yan and the others?

After squeezing through the smoke-filled entrance, we entered the research institute.

The Fradali Institute's area is not small, but it's not large either; it's at least much smaller than Dr. Blatano's institute.

However, compared to the Bratano Institute, the Fradali Institute is more technologically advanced, filled with all kinds of high-tech equipment.

I'd guess only the research labs on the underground floors of the Aether Foundation in Alora can compare to this place.

just.

All of this on the surface at the Vladali Institute is just a facade.

Xia Yan knew that what lay beneath the surface truly concealed unspeakable secrets.

But how do you find the underground entrance in a "reasonable" way?

Xia Yan thought for a moment, then walked to a secluded corner without cameras, took out his phone, and dialed Zhen Niao's number.

"Hey, officer, we're on a mission right now..." Masahiro lowered his voice.

"Are you at the Vladali Institute?" Xia Yan asked in a hoarse voice.

"Yes, indeed. But you know what, Officer, this Vladali Institute is truly a hidden world. It took us a lot of effort to get in. What's down there must be even more important, but the cipher machine is very difficult to decipher in a short time..."

"Let's go quickly. Interpol from the Alliance has located the research institute, and a group of investigators have gone in." Xia Yan glanced around, but no one noticed him making a phone call.

Even if someone notices it, they probably won't think much of it.

"Interpol? Investigators?!" Even the real bird was stunned.

She never expected that these two groups would appear at the Vladali Institute.

"They've found the Rockets' trail; they're here to find you."

"But we..."

The real bird stood there, holding its phone, completely bewildered.

But they were really stealthy. Even Team Flare didn't notice them. So how did the League find out?

unless......

"Cadre, has one of us become a traitor?!"

The bird looked completely incredulous.

The "True Bird Matrix" is full of Rocket Team elites personally selected by her, so how could there be a traitor?

She probably never expected this.

The traitor turned out to be her boss, who was tipping her off.

Are you surprised, are you surprised?

"In short, you should leave now. Don't worry about anything. Find a ventilator and force your way out. I'll hold off the search team for you."

Hearing this, even the real bird was moved.

Surprisingly, the Rockets have a boss who is willing to take risks for his subordinates.

The bird sniffed, "Cadre..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll give you..." Xia Yan glanced at his watch, "Thirty seconds. If you don't retreat in thirty seconds, there's no point in you leaving."

"understand!"

The real bird didn't waste any more words.

After glancing at his watch, he immediately took action.

"Mr. Xia Yan, we've searched the whole place, but we didn't find it..."

A middle-aged man wearing the accessories of a senior investigator walked up.

boom--!!

Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard, and the entire Vladali Research Institute building shook violently.

Everyone's expression turned solemn.

A faint sense of unease could be heard outside.

But Xia Yan calmly raised his hand, signaling all the investigators not to act rashly.
