I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

"Hehe," Xiao Zhao smiled embarrassedly when he saw the dirt on Xu Li's clothes, and then went into the base to tidy himself up.

Xu Li patted his clothes and felt that Xiaozhao had become much more cheerful after his experience in the wild.

It was only then that Xu Li saw the other woman following Xiao Zhao.

Seeing Xu Li looking at her, the woman quickly said to Xu Li, "Hello, my name is Mimei, a member of the security team. I was originally trapped in the wild, and it was Xiaozhao who helped me get back here."

"You are Xiaozhao's teacher Xu Li, right? I heard Xiaozhao mention you often."

She is the person who disappeared in the Red Lotus Wetland and whom Dr. Laben asked Xu Li to keep an eye out for. It turns out that she was saved by Xiao Zhao.

After meeting Xu Li, Mimei said goodbye and went to report to the security team.

……

Before Xu Li had to wait long, Xiao Zhao came out wearing a complete investigation suit that seemed to suit her well.

As soon as she came out, she pulled Xu Li to the Golden Plains and asked Xu Li to see her new partner.

Xiao Zhao took out four Poké Balls and opened them all with a bang.

All of a sudden, four Pokémon appeared beside them, and Xu Li looked at them one by one.

Mumu Owl, Poison Rose, Lily Root Doll, and the pot is weird.

"Goo-"

As soon as Mumuxiao came out and saw Xu Li, he flapped his wings, as if to say, look, I protected Xiaozhao very well, right?

Xiaozhao held Mumuxiao in his arms and said with a smile, "Mumuxiao has indeed played a very important role."

"And Snorlax, it's really thanks to Snorlax, otherwise it would be difficult for me to escape from the Toxic Skull Frogs."

When mentioning the group of poisonous frogs, Xiao Zhao patted his chest with lingering fear.

Xu Li looked at the lily root doll and said, "I also captured a lily root doll."

Xiao Zhao's eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "Really? Where is it?"

"They went out to play with the little flame monkey and are not here now. You can see them at night." Xu Li replied.

"Is that so?" Xiao Zhao was a little disappointed, and then asked Xu Li:

"I found that I particularly like Grass-type Pokémon. During my training, I had an idea. I want to form a Grass-type team. Is this feasible?"

Hearing this, Xu Li thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "It's certainly possible to focus on one attribute, but I don't recommend a team composed entirely of grass attributes. There are too many weaknesses. Besides, it's not a grass attribute, right?"

After saying that, Xu Li pointed at the basin.

This is a petite Pokémon with a sapling growing in a pot and three small branches on its head, each with small round green leaves.

This Pokémon looks like it could cry at any moment, and it uses this method to expel water from its body.

"Ah?" Xiaozhao asked in surprise.

"Although Bonzaiku looks like a sapling, it's a pure rock-type Pokémon."

Pen Zaiguai, who was standing there in a daze, looked at Xiaozhao's surprised expression, feeling a little aggrieved. His mouth pursed and tears were about to come out of the corners of his eyes.

Xiaozhao quickly comforted Penzaigai so as not to make him cry.

During this period, Xiaozhao's Poison Rose held the two roses in his hands and stood quietly in place.

It seems that after evolution, she has become a lady.

……

Xiaozhao and Xu Li got on the bus back to Zhuqing Village. After a few hours, they successfully returned to Zhuqing Village.

As a result, before Xu Li returned to his home in Zhuqing Village, the person he didn't want to see found him.

"Brother Xu Li, do you still remember me?"

The person in front of me is carrying a package from the Ginkgo Caravan, and his bangs under his hat directly cover his eyes. Who else could it be but Wang Luo?

"Remember, what's the matter?"

"It's like this," Wang Luo leaned closer to Xu Li and said coquettishly, "I heard that the mad Queen of Shandao was pacified by you a while ago. I guess you also got something similar to the stone tablet, right?"

Xu Li blinked. "Wang Luo guessed I had the slate and was lurking here? Is he so impatient?"

Xu Li did not hide it and said directly: "Yes, I got the stone tablet."

Wang Luo nodded in understanding and continued, "It is said that the descendants of the ten Pokémon who followed the ancient heroes gained their power from the Great Lord of Sinnoh. This stone tablet must have been the source of their power."

"I speculate that stone tablets like this may be scattered throughout Xi Cui. If we collect all the stone tablets and decipher the text on them, we may be able to learn the truth about something!"

Xu Li sighed inwardly. Wang Luo saw that I could pacify the king, so he wanted to persuade me to collect the stone tablets.

Why don't you calm it down? You can't just fight Plutosaurus when it's there. Or... are you afraid to expose Plutosaurus?

Why do you have to pretend with me? Xu Li hates this kind of intrigue the most.

"Are you interested in slate?" Xu Li asked directly.

Wang Luo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "To be honest, I am indeed interested in the truth after the stone tablets are collected."

Xu Li didn't want to argue, so he said directly: "Since you are interested, how about we cooperate?"

"Oh? How can we cooperate?" Wang Luo showed a genuinely interested expression.

Xu Li continued, "It seems this slate has one for each attribute, right? That would make a total of eighteen."

"So even if the ten Pokémon blessed by Sinnoh Grand Master each possessed a type of stone tablet, there would still be eight types of stone tablets left."

"Yes, ancient mythology also said there were eighteen kinds of stone slabs." Wang Luo nodded.

"How about I leave the whereabouts of these eight stone tablets to you, Wang Luo?"

Seeing Wang Luo's embarrassed expression, Xu Li said, "Why? Do you want to get it for free?"

Wang Luo gritted his teeth and said, "Then leave it to me. But the remaining slates really don't contain any information, and I can't guarantee anything."

There really isn't much information there, and the remaining slates will only appear after the Gods of Time and Space are pacified.

But at that time, Xu Li had completed the mission and returned to the modern era with ten stone slabs. Hey, weren't you, Wang Luo, dumbfounded?

"Then I'll take my leave."

We didn't talk for long before Wang Luo said goodbye.

Seeing Wang Luo's departing back, Xu Li turned around and went back to his home in Zhuqing Village.

Chapter 53: Honglian Wetland Investigation Report

As soon as they returned to Zhuqing Village, Gastly, who had been hiding in Xu Li's shadow and was not very active, immediately jumped out.

Looking left and right, he found dust in many places, so he immediately turned into a cleaning expert. With only one Pokémon, Gastly, he took care of all the hygiene in the house.

Xu Li was surprised to see Gastly cleaning the house enthusiastically.

In the Red Lotus Wetlands, Gastly didn't want to do anything. He just stayed in Xu Li's shadow every day and was not interested in meeting other Gastlys of the same species.

Now that I'm home, I'm in high spirits.

Just as Xu Li was sighing, he noticed some movement in the house, and suddenly a large figure appeared against the window.

"Woo——"

Hearing the noise, Xu Li turned around and saw it. He was stunned for a moment, then ran to the yard and said in surprise: "Is this, the Hunting Swallowtail Butterfly? Have you evolved?"

"Woo~"

The hunting swallowtail butterfly nodded proudly. Isn't it natural for it to evolve?

As expected of a boss Pokémon, the Hunting Swallowtail in front of us is almost 1.5 meters tall, and its wings can cover a large area of ​​shadow when spread out.

【Hunting Swallowtail Butterfly (Boss)♀

Attributes: Insect, Flying

Level: Lv17

Ability: Insect Premonition

Moves: Silk, Wind, Harden, Insect Bite, Absorb, Paralysis Powder, Morning Light, Air Blade, Insect Chirp

Favorability: 81 (If you have food, I’ll definitely rely on you)]

The insect's body is mainly black and gray, with aqua blue compound eyes and a long, curved mouthpart.

The most eye-catching thing is its colorful wing pattern, which has become so beautiful after evolution.

He no longer looked as embarrassed as when he first encountered the spiny-tailed insect.

"Woo——"

Seeing that Xu Li was still looking at its new appearance, the hunting swallowtail butterfly shook its body, saying, "Isn't it beautiful?"

After it evolved, it was surprised to see itself.

"Indeed, it's very beautiful," Xu Li nodded, then looked at the big-tailed raccoon beside him.

"Big-tailed raccoon, you've been working hard during this period."

Although there was some dust in the room that the big-tailed raccoon couldn't deal with, the yard was cleaner and tidier than when Xu Li left, and there was no sign of damage to the flowers, plants, and trees.

It can be seen that the big-tailed raccoon spent a lot of effort.

"Bido!" Seeing Xu Li praising it, the big-tailed raccoon simply showed a happy smile.

Just by managing this yard, the big-tailed raccoon can have a constant supply of energy blocks to eat. He is willing to do this kind of work for the rest of his life.

Xu Li released all of his Pokémon, "Then, let's have dinner in the yard!"

"Teeth~"

"Buy~"

"Kabbi Kabbi~~"

Snorlax was very excited about this as he could eat again.

……

Just during dinner, the hunting swallowtail butterfly made a new request to Xu Li.

It wants to plant more flowers in the yard so that it can collect pollen and nectar freely.

"I will purchase a batch of flowers and ask Big-tailed Cat to plant them." Xu Li naturally agreed.

The baby bear heard this and realized that the swallowtail butterfly also liked nectar, so he took out his own crystal honey to share.

In this way, a bear and a butterfly miraculously came together to discuss various kinds of honey and became good friends.

……

The next morning, in the Xingyue office of the investigation team.

Xu Li had just woken up from Fairy Eevee's bed when he was invited here by Mingyao on behalf of the investigation team.

Now, there are only the new investigation team leader Xingyue and Dr. Laben in the office.

Xingyue looks like a cold woman with a serious face, but in the game plot, she has been secretly helping the protagonist after he was driven out of Zhuqing Village. It seems that she has a warm heart under this cold appearance.

Moreover, Xu Li also heard that Xingyue was a kendo master from Fengyuan.

Seeing Xu Li coming over with a yawn on his face, Dr. Laben said to Xu Li with a smile:

"Didn't you get enough rest last night? Actually, you can come later."

Then he suddenly took out a plate of food and said, "Damn, damn, taro cakes from Yumanyuan, perfect for breakfast."

"It's okay. Ibrahimovic was too tight last night. What's the matter with calling me over?"

Xu Li took a piece of taro cake and couldn't help yawning again.

"It's like this. Team Leader Xingyue heard about your glorious achievements and wants to get to know you."

At this time, Xingyue extended her hand towards Xu Li and said, "Hello Xu Li, I am Xingyue, the leader of the Galaxy team's investigation team."

"Hello," Xu Li stretched out his hand and shook hands with Xingyue.

Xingyue continued, "The news from Team Kong is that you helped pacify the Queen of Sando. Did you use... a talisman?"

Xu Li nodded and said, "The Zhenbao is something these kings like. Making a small bag and throwing it to them can help them regain some sanity."
