I'm a Pokémon Master from School City (by mistake)

"Early Spring~"

As Kuroko's voice rang out, Haru walked in. She sat down at her seat with a grin and began typing rapidly on her keyboard, saying, "There have been a total of 17 similar cases recently, but so far only the convenience store explosion is serious. The previous ones were just like prank firecrackers, so even if someone reported them, the disciplinary committee just made a note of them and didn't pay any attention to them."

Then she looked at Chiyo and said, "According to the information provided in the library, there is a student named Kaito Hatsushiya who has this ability, but to achieve the explosive effect today, one must reach the level of LV4."

"It's impossible for him with his current abilities."

After Chuchun finished speaking, Kuroko continued, "As requested by Big Sister, we investigated his recent shopping records. He has indeed purchased a large number of aluminum products recently, such as soup spoons, forks, and aluminum canned drinks. Moreover, his fingerprints were indeed collected from the scene."

"However, he was not capable enough to cause such destruction, and Kuroko believes that this person could not be the mastermind."

Chiyo showed no surprise. She calmly asked, "Was there video surveillance at the scene that was previously thought to be a prank? When did the incidents occur? Was this person seen before or after the explosions? The video surveillance should have captured it, right? Where did the explosions happen?"

"Hmm." Kuroko handed Chiyo more paper documents, saying, "I did investigate as Big Sister instructed. Although the chances of this person being at the scene are very high, his abilities..."

“That’s him.” Chiyo quickly flipped through the documents and stood up, saying, “That’s enough.”

"The rest is just waiting for him to confess."

"What?" Kuroko sensed something was wrong and said, "Big Sister, this..."

"Misaka-senpai?!" Kofune Miwa sensed something was wrong and quickly said, "As a member of the Disciplinary Committee, even if you have suspicions, you should speak up..."

"Show me the evidence," Chiyo said, arms crossed. "I know, but I'm not a disciplinary committee member yet, am I?"

"and..."

Chiyo casually tossed out six Pokémon and said, "Go find me someone and bring him here."

Chiyo took out a photo of Sugata Hatsushima and showed it to Owl, Swellow, and Pidgeot, saying, "Remember what this person looks like."

Then she said to Pikachu, Chikorita, and Cheesecake, "Do you see all these injuries I have? It's all thanks to this person."

"Ah~ I'm about to become a disciplinary committee member, so you can't bring him here covered in injuries too~"

Chiyo was originally a cold-looking person, and her speech was somewhat mechanical with little emotional fluctuation.

The cold expression and tone made the words sound even more sinister.

The next second, Pikachu, Chikorita, and Blissey jumped onto the three bird Pokémon, and then the bird Pokémon flew directly out of the window.

"Misaka Chiyo!"

Kofumi knew what was going to happen next without even thinking. She angrily accused him, "What are you doing? Are you trying to force a confession? According to the information, this person couldn't possibly have done this. Although he has done it multiple times and appeared at the scene this time, it's also possible that it's just a coincidence."

"Coincidence?" Chiyo sneered. "Once or twice could be a coincidence, but this guy is almost always there. You're telling me this is a coincidence?"

"And since it's an investigation, isn't it a reasonable and legal procedure to call the suspect in for questioning?"

Chiyo, observing the expressions on their faces, seemed to have noticed something and said, "You guys don't have any experience questioning suspects, do you?"

These people didn't answer, so it seems they really don't have any more.

"You guys are really quite unprofessional." Chiyo shook her head, ignoring the group, and said, "Remembering once could be a coincidence, but so many times can't be!"

Honestly, Chiyo now completely believes that even without the advantage of a storyline, she can solve the case faster than them.

A group of guys who were just doing this as a hobby, and Academy City didn't experience any major trouble.

It's truly a blessing from heaven.

Chapter Thirty-Eight What is this?

How should we talk between Kaito Hatsushiro and the disciplinary committee member?

It's basically a stubborn bunch of newbies pecking at each other.

In reality, Hatsuya had no intention of hiding his whereabouts. The time Chiyo encountered him was purely coincidental; the part of the can he touched was blown up.

The security camera footage in the convenience store was indeed damaged due to maintenance by the store manager, so no video was captured.

However, there was more than one surveillance camera around him. There was a traffic camera on the street corner that recorded the entire process of the person entering and leaving, as well as the explosion.

At the same time, although the disciplinary committee members are incompetent, they are very meticulous when collecting evidence.

In cases previously considered pranks, fingerprints were still extracted from the remaining explosives, though these were not taken seriously.

A quick comparison will show that they are from the same person.

Secondly, reviewing the surveillance footage clearly shows that whenever there is an explosion, you can almost always find the figure of Kaito Hatsushiro.

Although the disciplinary committee members are incompetent, given their sheer number, someone is bound to find some connection.

It's just...

“Ability.” Chiyo picked at her ear and said, “We’ll know once we get the person over here. What’s important in solving cases is the chain of evidence, not the ability level on paper. Everything is in a state of development, and the data in the library may not be accurate.”

In the 177th Disciplinary Committee branch, Chiyo had heard Kuroko, Hatsuharu, and that guy, Yoshimi Kofun, raise their objections more than once.

Their objection was that the ability of this traveler, Chuya, registered on paper was only LV2, which was completely insufficient to reach this level.

We'll know the result soon.

Chiyo had no desire to argue about anything anymore. She pulled out her MP3 player, plugged in her headphones, and acted as if she wouldn't listen at all, which infuriated Kofumi.

"Your friend is really something." Gu Famei was speechless. Criticize? This person might be her future colleague. If they were in the same branch, they would see each other all the time, and it wouldn't be good to make things awkward. It would be best if they weren't in the same branch, but she still had no reason to criticize them.

And she didn't know how to refute it.

Based on the current evidence, Jie Lu Chu Shi is the most likely suspect.

Apart from the fact that his ability level is insufficient, all other evidence currently points to this person.

Hold on.

About half an hour later, a gust of wind suddenly blew the window open, and a huge dark shadow crashed into the disciplinary committee branch.

"scare!"

Aside from Chiyo, the other two were startled and stared in surprise at the object that had fallen in.

is a person.

'Jielu Hatsuko? '

All three of them had seen photos of Kaito Hatsushiya before, so they naturally recognized him immediately.

Chiyo only glanced sideways at Kaito Hatsuya, who was dazed and confused after being thrown around, but whose eyes were filled with hatred and fear.

He wasn't injured, but judging from the look in his eyes, he must have been thoroughly beaten up by Pokémon.

Chiyo took a sip of black tea, thinking about this scumbag.

She wouldn't have a shred of affection for the guy in the cartoon who tricked a little girl into giving away a bomb hidden in a plush toy.

Forget about having any goodwill towards him, even knowing that he was bullied too much, I didn't feel a single bit of sympathy for him.

Chiyo felt nothing but contempt and disgust for this person's actions and deeds.

If it weren't for the fact that Academy City still has basic laws...

She would never let this person appear here alive.

"Kuroko." Chiyo took off her headphones and looked away, her tone somewhat commanding as she said, "Take a statement."

"Hmm... ah?"

Hei Zi paused for a moment, then asked, somewhat confused, "Um... Big Sister, you just said you were taking a statement?"

Chiyo was taken aback by Kuroko's question. She said incredulously, "I wasn't speaking a foreign language, was I? Taking a statement, an interrogation statement?!"

Chiyo was confused, but seeing that Kuroko, Hatsuharu, and Kofunomi were even more confused, she suddenly realized and said incredulously, "You guys haven't even done this basic statement taking, have you?"

Doesn't the disciplinary committee branch take on the basic work of the police station?

Taking statements is a basic skill for frontline police officers, right?

Impossible, really not?

The three members of the branch exchanged bewildered glances after being stared at by Chiyo.

"Forehead..."

Well, Chiyo has gained a deeper understanding of the looseness and amateurishness of the Disciplinary Committee.

No wonder, whether in animation or comics, even such a simple case has been difficult to solve for so long.

"I'll teach you." Chiyo reluctantly put down her tea and said, "Look up at the 'Interrogation Record.' First, there's the time, place, the interrogator, the recorder's name and occupation, then the information of the person being questioned. Um, just fill in 'I' for the interrogator, and for the recorder, Hatsuharu, use your computer to record it..."

"This thing..."

As she spoke, Chiyo walked over to Haruharu's side and stood there, instructing her on how to write the interrogation record.

"I..." It took Kaito Hatsuya a while to come to his senses. Looking at the documents and his own photo on the table, he knew what was going on.

But as the saying goes, "a dead duck will stubbornly refuse to admit it."

"I don't know anything," said Jie Lu Chuya. "Why did you bring me here?"

Chiyo ignored Kaito Hatsuya and asked Kuroko directly, "Kuroko, you don't have any security cameras here, do you?"

"what?"

Hei Zi was taken aback again.

Chiyo nodded. "It's confirmed, there isn't any."

She had noticed this as soon as she entered; there was nothing that looked like a camera.

This has been confirmed by Kuroko's side.

Chiyo then said directly, "Kikusaha, you didn't do a very elegant job this time."

The next second, Chikorita glared angrily at the man.

"Awoo~" A strange and sharp sound came from Kikko's mouth. Everyone else was fine with it, just found it noisy, but Kikko Hatsuya immediately knelt down on the ground, covered his ears, and made painful pleas.

Howling.

One of the most basic Pokémon moves is to distract or affect the opponent by making scary or cute sounds, thereby reducing the opponent's attack power.

Whether the sound is scary or cute depends on the Pokémon's form, but this doesn't mean that it can only make one sound in that form.

Terrifying sounds can also be emitted, and more importantly, these sounds have a certain psychological attack effect; if used against humans, they will also cause them pain.

It is a very good torture method that will not cause any external injuries.

but...

"Use poison powder." Chiyo said without hesitation, "Even the leader is dead and still acting tough."

"If you don't want to talk about it, then take your secret to hell with you!"

"You piece of trash, you scum!"

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Would You Kill Someone?

Jie Lu Chu Shi's face turned ashen.

green.

The literal meaning of "green".

He was poisoned.

The poisonous powder from chrysanthemum leaves.

Chiyo found it difficult to determine whether the Pokémon's "poison," which is considered a move, is a biological poison, a chemical poison, or a superpower poison.

This is poisonous!

Very characteristic.

Pokémon can be synthesized, but this requires prior learning. They are created only when needed, cannot be stored, and cannot be retrieved, but they can be countered by human-made antidotes. Furthermore, the effects don't last very long, so many Pokémon can be accidentally poisoned during battle without much problem.

Even if their trainer doesn't have an antidote, they can get through it by healing or their own recovery.

But this poison is a bit troublesome for humans.

Without an antidote, death is certain.

Pokémon have absolutely no qualms about drugging people.

Whether or not to do this kind of thing depends entirely on the trainer's orders.
