Chapter 9 Return to Evergreen City
Chapter 9 Return to Evergreen City
After walking through the forest for half an hour in the afternoon, Xuan Mingtian finally saw the highway. He then called the police station in Changqing City and asked them to pick him up on the highway, also telling them that he had captured two Pokémon hunters. After receiving a reply, the two Pokémon squatted down on the ground and waited for the police to arrive.
"Little Tadeus, do you prefer riding bicycles or elf mounts? Walking every day like this isn't a long-term solution, and I'm worried you'll hurt yourselves." He looked at them with a smile.
Little Tadwal looked at Xuan Mingtian with disdain, then the two of them kept squeaking: "Don't look at us like that. We are elves, we are not afraid of getting hurt. It's just that you don't want to walk every day. If you hadn't offended Duduli and the others at the ranch, you would definitely have brought a Dudu with you when you came out. Now look what you've done, you know you regret it."
Xuan Mingtian's forehead creased with annoyance. He recalled how he used to take Little Tadawa to give concerts to Tauros every day, which meant singing to Dodori. Tauros were alright; they would fall asleep as soon as they finished singing. But Dodori and the others were in a worse state. After they went to sleep, he would even tie a knot in their heads. So, whenever he was forced to play Mortal Kombat, Dodori and the others would come over to watch the drama unfold.
Just then, I heard a "poof" sound. I turned around and saw that Little Tadeusz and the glutton were talking. But the more I listened, the more black lines appeared on my forehead. It turned out that the two of them were telling the glutton about their embarrassing stories.
He immediately retorted angrily, "What are you laughing at, you glutton? What's so funny? If you hadn't been there, I would have dragged you along to get beaten up by Real Kombat, hmph."
At this moment, the foodie also floated up to him with a grin and said, "Hehehe, I'm laughing, I'm laughing."
Xuan Mingtian couldn't hold back any longer and immediately pounced on it, unleashing his ultimate skill: tickling.
The four of them played around for about ten minutes when they saw a police car driving in their direction.
After the police car stopped, a female police officer with green hair, golden eyes, a heroic demeanor, and a beautiful appearance got out of the driver's seat: "Hello, little friend, did you call the station? I am the police chief, my name is Jun Sha'en."
Xuan Mingtian, who had stopped playing around, said to Officer Jenny, "Hello Officer Jenny, my name is Xuan Mingtian. I'm the one who called you. There are two elf hunters here."
While they were talking, Little Tower had already brought the two bound people to Officer Jenny with a rattan whip.
“Okay, thank you, little one, but I need you to go to the police station to make a statement,” Jun Shane said.
“Okay, Officer Jenny.”
Half an hour later, Xuan Mingtian finally came out of the police station. At this time, Jun Sha'en walked up to him and said, "Little boy, did you come out by yourself? Where are your family members?"
“Officer Officer Jenny, I’m from the Sinnoh region. I came to Indigo Academy alone; my family didn’t come.” Xuanming Tiandao
“Oh, your family is a bit unreliable. These elf hunters are just some unknown ones, so they're not very strong. But if you encounter some more famous elf hunters, you'll be in great danger. I'll take you back to the academy now,” Jun Shaen said.
Xuan Mingtian said, "No need, Officer Officer Jenny. I just wanted to go to Viridian Forest for some training, I didn't expect to encounter a Pokémon hunter. I won't go back to the academy now, I need to buy some Pokémon food and energy cubes tomorrow."
"So where are you staying tonight? Why don't you come home with me tonight and stay at my place?" Jun Shaen said.
"Officer Jenny, this isn't a good idea."
"Call me sister. I'm off work now, so it's a happy decision. Come on, get in the car." Jun Shaen forcefully shoved herself into the car.
Five minutes later, the vehicle drove into a two-story villa with a courtyard of more than 300 square meters.
"Let's go, Xiaotian, I'll cook you something delicious tonight." Jun Sha'en carried her backpack in one hand and pulled her into the villa with the other.
Led by Junsha, I toured the entire villa, including my next room.
"Xiao Tian, go and rest for a while. I'll call you when it's time to eat."
"Okay, thank you, Sister En." After saying that, Xuan Mingtian returned to his room.
"Hmm, I don't have a particularly good gift for Sister En right now, I need to make a phone call." Xuan Mingtian immediately took action after thinking about this.
"Hey, Mom, I want you to send me several hundred or even thousands of kilograms of the Seed of Miracles."
"Xiao Tian, have you been kidnapped, or have you lost your mind? Thousands of kilograms? Are you sure you're eating by the pound?" Aunt Xuan asked in astonishment.
"Mom, no, listen to me first. Most of it isn't for me to eat. It's for my little cutie who likes to eat it, so most of it is prepared for him."
At this moment, our little foodie cutie looked delighted.
"Who's this 'little cutie'? Don't tell me you want to abandon Xiaolan, or I'll break your legs!" Xuan's mother roared.
"No, Mommy, my little cutie is an elf, and even if you break my legs, I'll be jumping around again in two days."
"I'll jump around like that! I think you're just not happy unless you get a beating. Besides, even the guardian spirit in the house doesn't eat more than a thousand kilograms a year, are you kidding me?" Xuan's mother said in a disbelieving tone.
"Mom, I really didn't lie to you. Little Cutie wants to stay with us, so we need to make sure it lives well. Also, after I tell you, don't tell anyone else. Little Cutie is the legendary Pokémon Mew from the Kanto region." After Xuan Mingtian finished speaking, he turned to look at Little Cutie, only to see it tilt its head back and roll its eyes. This is not only a glutton, but also a little tsundere.
After a full three-minute pause, Mom finally spoke: "Xiaotian, are you telling the truth? Don't lie to us."
"Mom, it's true. When the time comes, have Grandpa's Starhawk deliver it. At Starhawk's speed, it will only take a day. Also, have Starhawk deliver it to the police station in Evergreen City, because I'm currently staying at the police chief Jun Shaen's house."
"Alright then, just be careful not to be rude to other people's houses. She's probably trying to win you over. You can decide for yourself. Also, about the Elf Hunter, you need to be careful. If you can't handle it, just have Tropical Dragon Steel and the others deliver it. I'll have Starhawk deliver the things tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Mom. Goodbye, Mom." Xuan Mingtian said and hung up the phone.
Just then, Jun Sha'en's voice rang out: "Xiao Tian, come down for dinner."
Ten seconds later, Xuan Mingtian arrived at the dining hall and unleashed the Heaven-Shattering Technique.
"Wow, Xiao Tian, your Scyther is quite unique." Jun Shaen exclaimed in surprise. Although she was still young, she had some experience. However, this Scyther gave her a strong sense of pressure, especially its twin blade arms. She could feel the sharpness of the blades even from this distance.
"Yes, it was my first partner in the Kanto region. It became like this because of some changes, and I think it's great."
Jun Shaen said, "It is indeed extraordinary. I can feel the subtle pressure and sharpness just by looking at its blade. Okay, Xiao Tian, let's eat. This is a steak I specially made."
After taking a bite of the steak, Xuan Mingtian recognized a familiar taste: "Sister, this was marinated with the Seed of Miracles, wasn't it?"
"Impressive! You can actually taste this flavor and even know about the Seed of Miracles. Let me think... Your surname is Xuan. In the Sinnoh region, you wouldn't happen to be from the Xuan family of Suiju Town, would you?"
"Hehe, Sister En, you guessed it. Well then, I won't pretend anymore. I'll confess. I really am from the Suiyi Zhenxuan family."
"Aha, Xiaotian, let's eat quickly."
Nothing was said that night. After dinner, Xuan Mingtian went back to his room to rest. He knew what Officer Jenny meant today. She probably wanted to cooperate with or win over his family. As for why she was contacting him now, Xuan Mingtian guessed that his father and grandfather might have had some communication with the Officer Jenny family, but probably not much.
Since arriving in this world, I've come to understand some differences from the novels and anime of my previous life. For example, there must be a reason why Officer Jenny treated me this way. While the Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy families are powerful, don't forget that more people require more resources. Take the Officer Jenny family, for instance; although they have influence in the League, their true strength comes from the connection and bond between trainers and Pokémon. Like Ash Ketchum in the future, no matter how powerful he is, if he "can't fly," a single Cliff Sword strike would send him to his grave.
If the Officer Jenny and Joey families were truly powerful, they wouldn't only be known for their police and medical systems. But regardless, they still wield considerable influence over the lower, middle, and upper classes.
Moreover, with such a large family, Officer Jenny's internal competition must be fierce. Without internal competition and with resources equally distributed, it would be difficult for top trainers and top Pokémon to emerge. So this is probably Officer Jenny's way of trying to win him over.
"Little cutie, come here for a second. Let me try my life force on you and see if it works." Before he could finish speaking, the little foodie had already floated in front of him.
"Really? Then hurry up, I'm getting impatient."
Looking at the little cutie's excited expression, Xuan Mingtian was speechless. Just how greedy must she be?
A minute later, Xuan Mingtian said to the little cutie, "How was it? Did it work?"
"It works. The quality is even better than Ho-Oh's flames, but the quantity is too small. Can I have some more?"
"Okay, then I'll try to deliver it to you with all my might." After hearing that the little cutie said it worked, he also wanted to try delivering it with all his might.
20 minutes later
"I can't take it anymore, I'm so sleepy." As he said this, Xuan Mingtian collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.
"That feels good, Dehua. Is he alright?"
Dehua said, "It's okay, it's okay, Sister Dream. Let me tell you, once when we were at home, our owner used a wood-type energy to nourish the tallest melon tree in the house. The output was so strong that the owner was completely exhausted, but he went back to jumping around the next day."
"Okay then, I'm going to sleep too. Goodnight."
Although the little cutie appeared calm, the shock in her heart had shattered her arrogance: "My God, is this even human? He's given me so much life force, and now his body's life force is rapidly recovering, plus the wood-type energy that Dehua mentioned. It seems my lifelong meal ticket is secured. Should I call Shemi over too?"
At this moment, Jun Shaen said, "Chieftain, I met Xuan Jingjue's grandson today, and I even brought him home."
Chief Officer Jenny said, "Oh, really? Then you must treat him well. Although his family is small, it is stronger than the old families in the alliance. If possible, you should try to win him over; it would be of great benefit to our family."
Junshaun said, "Yes, Chieftain."
After Officer Jenny finished speaking with Chief Jenny, the entire villa fell silent.
