I caught a Pokémon

The darkness on the right adds the final line: "No matter where you run to!"

The three finished speaking in unison and simultaneously let out a low chuckle.

The laughter sounded particularly jarring in the evening mountain breeze, causing Xiao Guang to frown involuntarily.

"You—" She wanted to say something more, but Xia You stopped her by raising her hand.

Xia You stepped forward and stood in front of the three people.

He looked down at them, his gaze as calm as if he were looking at three stones on the roadside.

"Even if you don't tell me, I know who you are."

Hearing him say that, the three members of the Dark Iron Triangle all let out a cold laugh.

Does this man know the secrets of the core members of their Plasma Team?

You should know that their level of secrecy within the plasma team is extremely high; they're not just anyone...

"The Dark Iron Triangle." Just as I was thinking this, I heard Xia You say, "The Plasma Team's assassination squad is specifically responsible for dealing with those 'troublemakers,' am I right?"

The cold laughter in the hearts of the three men came to an abrupt halt.

A flicker of shock flashed in the dark eye in the middle.

How did this man know?

No, I should say, why did he recognize them when it was their first meeting?

Although their identities are common knowledge within Team Plasma, very few people have actually seen them, let alone connected the two.

But soon, the initial shock was replaced by gloom.

“Now that you know who we are,” he said coldly, “you should understand what happens when you offend Team Plasma! We won’t let you get away with going against us!”

Xia You did not answer.

He simply took his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number in front of the three of them.

After a short wait, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey? Brother Xia You? Why are you calling at this hour? What happened?"

He's handsome.

Xia You's tone was as calm as if she were talking about what to eat today: "Nothing much, I just caught three Plasma Team executives who tried to attack me, they're called the Dark Iron Triangle. I don't know if you'd be interested in taking them on."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Then there was a series of crackling sounds, as if someone had jumped up from a chair and bumped into something.

"What did you say?!" The handsome man's voice suddenly rose. "The Dark Trio?! They attacked you?! Were they those Plasma Team assassins? You caught them?!"

"Hmm." Xia You glanced at the three people on the ground. "They're right in front of me."

"How are they now? Did they resist? Did they—" The handsome man paused, took a deep breath, "Wait for me, I'm coming right now! Where are you now?"

"About twenty kilometers west of Snowflake City, on the road near the plains."

"Alright! I'm off right now! You—you hand them over to Officer Jenny first, and I'll contact the local team members immediately to have them send someone to meet them!" The handsome guy's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement. "The Dark Triangle, they're the core members of Team Plasma! Brother Xia You, you've done a great service this time!"

Xia You gave a faint "hmm" and hung up the phone.

He put away his phone and looked at the three people on the ground again.

The three men's expressions were grim at that moment.

Looking at them, Xia You shook her head and couldn't help but laugh, "The idea is good, but do you really think that your Plasma Team alone can do anything to me? Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who would easily hurt others. But thank you, thanks to your voluntary surrender, I've added another merit to my record with the Interpol. I believe my bonus will increase again when the final settlement is made. So from now on, I'll spend the rest of my life in the Interpol prison with my gratitude."

The Dark Trio has encountered many opponents before.

But this was the first time they had ever encountered something so infuriating.

But now that they've been defeated and captured, they have no way to deal with it.

Ignoring them, Xia You turned to Makomo beside her: "Contact Officer Jenny here and tell her that someone attacked a trainer, but has been subdued, and the Interpol will be involved soon."

Makomo nodded, took out her phone, and started making calls.

As for whether she knows Officer Jenny's number here...

It's really nothing. Just dial the police number normally and ask Ms. Jenny to transfer you.

As for why these people had to be handed over to Officer Jenny instead of someone else...

As it turned out, among these local police officers, Officer Jenny was the most well-known and the most trustworthy.

If you encounter danger and need help, don't hesitate, just contact Officer Jenny.

I believe that regardless of which region Officer Jenny comes from, although they may have different personalities, appearances, and abilities, they will all lend a helping hand and will not collude with these evil organizations.

Chapter 1373 Makomo's Inquisitive Heart

Xiao Guang stood aside, watching the three men whose expressions suddenly changed, and couldn't help but snort.

"You looked pretty tough just now?" she muttered. "Why aren't you tough now?"

The three men's lips moved, but in the end, they said nothing.

After all, in the face of absolute power, any harsh words are just a joke.

They had already learned this from Mewtwo.

Leaving aside how Xia You and her group waited for Miss Officer Jenny and the international police officers, the handsome guy in Fanba City, upon receiving the news, no longer cared about investigating any clues.

Although he did find out some things about Dr. Icicle and knew that he and his gang seemed to be planning something big, the Plasma Team's destroyers were likely also related to them.

But it's still just a clue, far less realistic than the arrest of three genuine officers from the Plasma Team.

It's important to understand that even if destroyers have strategic value, they are ultimately just tools. What's truly important are the people, especially the senior officers!

What use is a destroyer if all the cadres are arrested and only one destroyer remains?

Moreover, that destroyer may have already left Fanba City and its whereabouts are unknown.

Therefore, instead of wasting time here, the handsome guy decided to first seize the credit he had already earned!

……

After handing the Dark Trio over to Officer Jenny and receiving her assurance that she would take good care of them, Xia You and her group set off again.

For them, what had just happened was just a minor incident during their journey, and for Xia You, it was something she was already used to.

After all, he had been attacked by Team Rocket's true bird troops back in the Kanto region. At that time, his Pokémon lineup and depth were not as good as they are now, yet he still managed to deal with it easily.

Hikaru, Yami, and Makomo, who were encountering this matter for the first time, were inevitably still shaken, and during their subsequent trip, they mostly talked about it.

"Brother Xia You!" Xiao Guang said angrily, "You have to teach those plasma teams a lesson! How dare they attack you!"

“I’ve already taught them a lesson,” Xia You said, shaking her head. “Since arriving in the Union, I’ve hindered countless things for them and indirectly or directly damaged countless facilities. It’s precisely because I’ve caused them such heavy losses that this assassination attempt is necessary.”

Seeing that the girls still looked worried, he added another sentence.

"Don't worry, after this, when we meet again, I will show no mercy and teach them a lesson. Before I leave Unova, I will definitely crush Team Plasma!"

As she spoke, Xia You couldn't help but wonder if today's events were related to her seizing the Plasma Team destroyer.

If that's the case, then handing the Dark Triangle over to the Interpol might give them some clues.

But then I thought, I wasn't the one involved in the ship raid, so even if the Plasma Team hated me, they couldn't possibly associate me with this.

Unless A-Quan and Huo-Yan are exposed.

But given their experience and abilities, they wouldn't make such a mistake.

From this perspective, it was the accumulated grudges from the past that led them to decide to eliminate him.

Although they ultimately failed and lost their own high-end combat power, at least they tried. This also means that the Plasma Team's attitude towards themselves has become more assertive, moving away from previous observation and restraint.

It seems he's decided to confront himself head-on.

But that's not surprising, after all...

I started it myself.

……

As night deepened, starlight filtered through the sparse clouds, casting a soft silver glow on the open ground.

The tents were already set up, two tents in total. One was the tent that Xia You and Ya Mi shared, while the other, which was relatively smaller, was bought later by Zhen Gu, and she shared it with Xiao Guang.

The campfire crackled, occasionally sending up a few sparks that disappeared into the night wind.

After washing up, Xiao Guang yawned, rubbed his eyes, and stood up.

"Sister Makomo, let's go and rest. We still have a long journey ahead tomorrow."

Makomo nodded, but her gaze involuntarily drifted toward another tent.

Xia You and Ya Mi had already gone inside. A faint light shone from the tent, illuminating two blurry figures.

"Hmm... let's go."

She looked away and followed Xiao Guang into the tent.

The tent wasn't big, just big enough for two people to lie down side by side. Xiao Guang quickly crawled into his sleeping bag, wrapped himself up like a caterpillar, with only half his face showing.

Goodnight, Makomo-neechan.

"Good night."

The lights went out.

The tent was plunged into darkness, with only faint starlight filtering through the tent fabric. The only sounds were Xiaoguang's gradually even breathing and the occasional calls of night birds in the distance.

But Makomo couldn't sleep.

She lay in her sleeping bag, her eyes wide open, staring at the tent ceiling, her mind a jumble of thoughts about the day's events.

The attack by the Dark Trio, Mewtwo's power, Xia You's calm and composed demeanor...

Then, she heard it.

It was very light and subtle; if it weren't for the quiet of the night, and if she weren't lying there listening intently, she wouldn't have noticed it at all.

The sound was coming from the tent next door.

It sounded like...like suppressed gasps.

Makomo's body stiffened.

Of course she knew what that sound was.

Although she is a scholar and spends most of her time in the laboratory, it doesn't mean she knows nothing.

My cheeks started to burn at that moment.

She instinctively turned to the side, facing away from the adjacent tent, as if that would block out the sounds, but the sounds still faintly reached her ears, making her heart beat faster and faster.

them……

Needless to say, Xia You and Ya Mi were doing *that* again.

As for why I said "again"...

Makomo buried her face in the sleeping bag, gripping the edge of the bag tightly with both hands.

But those sounds can still be heard.

It fluctuates, sometimes high, sometimes low, intermittently.

She could recognize it as Ya Mi's voice, gentle yet trembling, as if she was trying her best to suppress something. Occasionally, she could also hear Xia You's deep voice, though she couldn't make out what he was saying, but the tone...

Makomo suddenly remembered what Natsumi had said during the day.

"As long as I consider him a friend, he can become my companion."

friend.

companion.

Is that all there is to them?

Her mind was racing, her cheeks were burning, and her heart was pounding so hard it almost drowned out all the other sounds.

Then she suddenly realized something and abruptly turned her head to look to the side.
