The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Xiaowen and Xiaomao both stared longingly at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Of course, we should go and listen to their thoughts in person."

Chapter 21 Infiltrating the Police Station

"Ugh, I'm so tired."

At the Pokémon Center in Matsumo City, a Nurse Joy looked at all the healed Pokémon and let out a long sigh.

Although his eyes showed some fatigue, they were also filled with the satisfaction of saving the elf.

This Miss Joey is the real Miss Joey from Matsumo City.

Seeing how tired Miss Joy looked in Matsuzao City, Joy felt a little apologetic.

"I'm sorry, you've been so busy, I didn't think to come and help you. But don't worry, I'll ask the family to send more Miss Joeys."

Upon hearing Joy Xue's words, Miss Joy from Matsuzao City smiled.

"This is all part of my job, I can handle it."

Then, Miss Joy from Matsumo City looked at Joy Snowfield with some curiosity.

"By the way, did the Matsuzo Dojo pass the dojo exam?"

As a native of Matsuzamo City, Miss Joy, although she is not familiar with Fang Yuan, she also hopes to see Matsuzamo Dojo pass the test.

Upon hearing what Ms. Joey from Matsuzao City said, Joey Xue's face showed a slightly embarrassed expression for the first time.

Because Qiao Yixue completely forgot about the assessment, even about observing her primary objective...

Qiao Yixue touched her still slightly sore buttocks, her expression somewhat stiff.

However, Qiao Yixue quickly regained her smile and said...

"Based on my observation, although Master Fang is not yet strong enough to become a dojo master."

"But based on my observations, it won't be long before he becomes a qualified curator."

“Really? That’s wonderful!” Miss Joey from Matsumo City smiled as well.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Joyce left the Pokémon Center.

Looking at the bustling street, Qiao Yixue hesitated for a while before deciding to go and take a look at a certain place.

For some reason, Qiao Yixue intuitively felt that the second-generation trainee named Meng Hua was a bit strange today.

As for the dojo assessment, Qiao Yixue had long since forgotten about it.

Upon arriving at the police station, Joey quickly found Officer Jenny, who was in charge of the area.

Upon seeing Qiao Yixue, Miss Officer Jenny was taken aback for a moment before saying...

"May I ask which Miss Joey you are?"

Clearly, apart from Xiao Gang, even Miss Officer Jenny couldn't tell the difference between Miss Joey from each region just by looking at her.

After arriving at the police station, Qiao Yixue did not hide her identity.

Instead, he produced a red-covered document.

On the cover of the document is a Poké Ball with angel wings and the League emblem.

Upon seeing the document, Ms. Officer Jenny paused for a second, then immediately said...

"Good morning, esteemed investigator!"

Yes, although Joyce is a gym examiner, she is also a subordinate unit of the investigators.

Miss Officer Jenny immediately stood up and saluted, then asked in a low voice...

"Is there anything we can help you with?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to see someone, the one you arrested this morning," Qiao Yixue said.

At this moment, Officer Jenny hesitated.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Yixue frowned and said

"Could they have already let him go?"

"Absolutely not! It's just that a lawyer is currently meeting with someone inside, so you might have to wait a little while."

Hearing Officer Jenny's explanation, Joey's expression softened slightly.

"Then I'll come back this afternoon."

"Okay, take care."

........

After leaving the police station, Qiao Yixue did not go far, but came to a small alley very close to the police station.

"Never mind, let's go in and take a look now."

Joyce pulled the necklace from under her clothes, held the warm Poké Ball in her hand, and whispered...

"Please, Latias, can you use teleportation to take me in?"

The Master Ball opened, and a Pokémon, red on top and white on the bottom, resembling a supersonic aircraft, the legendary mythical Pokémon Latias, appeared in this inconspicuous alley.

Upon hearing Joyce's command, Latias happily circled in mid-air.

Then a pale blue light shone in his eyes.

The next second, Joyce and Latias disappeared from the spot.

Although places like police stations usually have special equipment to prevent Psychic-type Pokémon from teleporting.

However, it's somewhat wishful thinking to think that these items can stop Latias, the guardian of the Water City.

Not long after Joyce and Latias disappeared, a group of three arrived at the same place.

The three of them were naturally Fang Yuan, Xiao Mao, and Xiao Wen.

Looking at the dimly lit alley, Xiao Mao and Xiao Wen looked at Fang Yuan with great confusion.

Xiaowen looked at Fang Yuan and said...

"Master, what are we doing here?"

"Yeah, sir, aren't we going to the police station?"

Seeing the puzzled looks on Xiaowen and Xiaomao's faces, Fang Yuan coughed lightly, and after checking that no one was around, he pointed downwards.

Seeing this, Xiao Mao seemed to remember something, and his eyes widened excitedly.

"Master, do you actually have a secret passage leading directly to the police station?"

"That's it."

Then, amidst Xiaowen and Xiaomao's expressions of despair, the manhole cover was opened.

“I just asked, and a lawyer is currently meeting with Meng Hua. Now is the best opportunity for us to eavesdrop on intelligence.”

Although Fang Yuan's words were tempting, Xiao Wen and Xiao Mao couldn't help but twitch their lips when they saw the manhole cover in front of them.

"Don't worry, it's very clean down there."

After hearing Fang Yuan's words, Xiao Wen and Xiao Mao reluctantly crawled into the sewer.

Xiao Mao, who has a slight obsession with cleanliness, couldn't help but ask a question while looking at the dark underground manhole cover.

"Master, how did you know there was a passage here?"

Upon hearing Xiao Mao's question, Fang Yuan's lips twitched involuntarily, and he thought to himself...

"It's all because of that cheap old Deng. All he does is drink and cause trouble. He gets drunk every few days and ends up in the police station. After it happened so many times, he felt embarrassed and started this tunnel."

However, Fang Yuan would definitely not say that again.

Instead, he said calmly.

"This is naturally the foundation of our Songzao Dojo."

Chapter 22 Latias appears and takes Joyce's hand.

In the detention cell inside the police station, Meng Hua's hands were handcuffed, and his face bore bruises from being pressed against the fabric.

"Uncle Wang, when can I leave?"

Upon hearing Meng Hua's question, the butler sighed helplessly.

"There's nothing we can do. That guy is unwilling to sign the settlement agreement, so we can only ask the young master to stay inside for a while."

Meng Hua was very annoyed and kicked the stool next to him.

Butler Wang saw that Meng Hua was angry but didn't say anything. Instead, he took off his coat and covered him with the camera next to him, making sure that no one was around.

Butler Wang's expression turned very serious as he looked at Meng Hua.

"Young Master, how did your investigation go this time?"

"Although the Meng family can be considered a powerful clan, if they cannot successfully own a dojo and enter the core circle of the alliance, they will ultimately amount to nothing."

Meng Hua recalled Fang Yuan's face, his expression twisting slightly, but after a moment's thought, he still spoke.

"The intelligence is accurate. The former gym leader of the Matsumo Gym has indeed left, and he probably took his Pokémon with him."

"After all, I made such a scene back then, and the old gym leader didn't lift a finger. And the new gym leader, when faced with my provocation, only brought out a Pokémon that wasn't even a veteran-level Poliwrath!"

"But I should have just sent out my ace to crush his fast breaststroke!"

"It really pisses me off!"

Seeing Meng Hua's indignation, the butler said with a calm expression.

“Young Master, a small act of impatience can ruin a great plan. Our ultimate goal is the entire Songzao Dojo, not just a single victory in a challenge.”

"I know."

"And what's the deal with Joey, who suddenly caused all this trouble?" Meng Hua asked.

Faced with Meng Hua's question, the butler seemed somewhat bewildered and said...

"With such strength, Joey should know something about this. For now, we can only assume she's just passing by and will leave soon."

"I'll get my revenge one day, and that damn gym leader too! He's so weak, yet he's still clinging to the position of gym leader. He deserves to die!"

......

While the butler and Meng Hua were discussing their plan, they were unaware that someone had overheard their entire scheme.

It's right here in this detention center.

Qiao Yixue stood 'openly' beside them, and she heard their conversation clearly.

Even Qiao Yixue's eyes were filled with shock after learning such important news.

Qiao Yixue had considered that they might have ulterior motives, but what she didn't expect was that they actually wanted to replace the entire Matsuzo Dojo!

"This trip was definitely worthwhile."

Joyce touched Latias beside her. Relying on Latias's ability, Joyce and Latias were invisible. Under these circumstances, not to mention two ordinary people, even a typical Elite Four trainer would not be able to detect them.

Seeing that there was no new information in their conversation, Qiao Yixue stroked the snow-white chin of Laadias beside her and silently recited in her heart...

"Latias, let's go, we've got the intelligence."

Latias nodded, and then Joyce and Latias left the detention center and went to the outer room.

Just as Qiao Yixue was about to walk out...

But he accidentally bumped into someone at a corner and fell heavily to the ground again.

Qiao Yixue clutched her buttocks, letting out a cry of pain as she covered her repeatedly injured bottom.

My butt~

Qiao Yixue angrily opened her eyes, but when she saw the person in front of her, she was stunned.
