Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off

Chapter 134 Azure Scams Again, Caught Red-Handed

fraud?

The commotion coming from the camp piqued Natsuno's curiosity, so he ran toward the source of the sound.

Halfway there, I saw a girl in a dark blue dress running ahead of me.

Although it was already dark, Natsuno still recognized the girl running wildly: "Azure?!"

A large group of people were chasing after Azure from behind.

"Scammer, stop right there! Give me my money back!"

"The so-called family heirloom energy cube that can cure all diseases is just a regular version!"

While running, Azure even had time to turn around and provoke, making a face.

"Hehe, why should I pay you back the money I earned through my own hard work?"

The next second, Azure suddenly felt her neck being grabbed.

His entire body was lifted off the ground, and his legs struggled violently, but he could not move forward even half a step.

Azure slowly turned her head and saw the second thing she feared most in her life.

At this moment, Natsuno was staring at her expressionlessly, one hand holding Bilan by the neck.

Azure screamed instantly: "Ah! Evil Gengar! What are you doing here?!"

Natsuno was amused by the nickname given to him by Bilan and let out a cold snort.

Bilan clasped her hands together, tears welling up in her eyes, her little face looking pitiful.

"Yes, it's Lord Natsuno. I was wrong. Please forgive my slip of the tongue and spare me. They will kill me."

Natsuno regained his expression: "Have you forgotten that this trick doesn't work on me anymore?"

By this time, the chasing crowd had caught up with the two of them, panting heavily.

"Thank you, thank you for helping me catch this scammer!"

"Oh, you're Mr. Natsuno!"

Natsuno felt a little tired from carrying her, so she put Bilan down, but kept her hand on Bilan's neck.

Based on the shouts of the chasing crowd ahead, Natsuno roughly understood.

It must be Azur Lane who stole the energy cubes from the research institute and is now committing fraud.

Natsuno's forehead veins bulged: "Professor Oki asked you to help look after the lab, and this is how you do it?"

"They misappropriated energy cubes from the research institute and came here to scam people in Dark Grey?"

"You're really well-informed; you got all the way from Pallet Town to Dark Grey so quickly."

When Bilan realized that Xia Ye had seen through her in a second, she remembered that pretending to be pitiful and using her beauty to seduce Xia Ye had no effect.

He simply crossed his arms over his chest, remained silent, and gave off an expression that said, "What can you do to me?"

She remained unmoved by the condemnation, intimidation, coercion, and enticement of the deceived crowd.

At this moment, A-Du also came over after hearing the commotion, his face full of authority: "Little girl, is it you who's been swindling people here?"

When Bilan saw that it was Adu, she became somewhat flustered.

She switched to a pitiful mode in an instant, and another tear squeezed out from the corner of her eye.

"I... I didn't mean to, it's just that my family has fallen on hard times..."

Bilan still wants to continue making up her story of "a seriously ill grandfather, gambling parents, a bankrupt family, and an ambitious woman".

But who is A-Du? He's worldly-wise and doesn't bother with Azur Lane at all.

"Tell us your story when we're inside the police station."

"Now, let's return all the money we swindled to the victims."

With a wave of his hand, Adu sent two Officer Jennys stepping forward to restrain the restless Azure.

Several other officers shouted, "Those who have been scammed, gather over here and register your information."

Azure was escorted to a small tent, where Officer Jenny conducted a full-body search, finding her phone and wallet on her chest.

Lights were on inside the tent on the other side, and a long line stretched out at the entrance as police officers registered and recorded cases of people being scammed.

Azure was taken away and made to return the money she had just swindled, comparing it against each payment record.

Every time Officer Jenny returned a sum of money, Azure's expression became more and more pained.

A kind-hearted man surnamed Xia even gave Officer Jenny some advice, suggesting that Azure should even keep her eyes open and watch.

Looking at the dozens of people queuing outside the tent, Xia Ye felt that Bi Lan's scam technique was truly outrageous.

After the money swindled from the camp was paid off, Officer Jenny frowned as she looked at the large balance in Azure's account.

"Ms. Azure, your account still has a large balance. Please inform us whether this income is from a legitimate source."

At this moment, Bilan's eyes darted around, and she was about to talk about her family's fruit tree business.

Once again, she channeled Lin Daiyu's spirit, her expression sorrowful, tears welling up before she could speak.

Unfortunately, these Officer Jennys were all elite personnel, and with a glance from Azure, they knew something was wrong.

"I'm sure you have a wonderful and touching story to tell. Let's go back to the police station and talk about it!"

Seeing that playing the victim wasn't working, Bilan noticed Xia Ye gloating beside her.

With a pitiful expression, he clasped his hands together and begged Natsuno again.

"Lord Natsuno, please help me! I'm your assistant, the one you appointed!"

Natsuno waved his hands repeatedly, "No, Your Excellency Azure is so noble, how could you be my assistant?"

The next second, Natsuno suddenly burst out laughing: "Besides, you might get locked up, how can you be my assistant then?"

"Do you have superpowers? Maybe you can use your mind to help me with chores."

He pointed to his head, then made a few gestures in the air as if writing or taking a picture, and then burst into laughter.

Bilan watched Natsuno's exaggerated actions with a gloating expression.

Enraged, he thought: "You wretched evil Gengar, I'll destroy you!"

Her expression quickly changed from pleading to feigned seriousness, like a primary school student tattling.

His fingers trembled slightly, and his eyes still held a trace of lingering fear and panic as he pointed at Xia Ye and spoke.

"Miss Officer Jenny, I confess! This man coerced me into doing this; he's the mastermind behind it all!"

Natsuno's eyes widened, and he gave Azur a thumbs up: "You actually want to drag me down with you, Hagiran?"

"What if I told you that I've collaborated with Devon to develop a drug? What would you do then?"

"Do you think I'm as senile as you, selling fake medicine instead of real medicine?"

At this moment, Azure completely ignored Natsuno's taunts, her eyes lit up, and she launched a chasing attack.

"I suspect he's the mastermind behind this whole thing, his motive being to sell his unwanted medicine!"

"He even wants to cover the entire world, so that everyone in the world will buy his medicine!"

Azure declared righteously, "You're an ambitious schemer, an opportunist! I will denounce you!"

Then all sorts of hats were thrown at Xia Ye's head for free, leaving him dumbfounded and somewhat dazed.

This is incredible! Is this still the Pokémon world?

What kind of old-fashioned fighting style is it to directly label someone?

Upon hearing Azure's words, her two guardians, the two Officers, simply watched with smiles.

One of them was typing something on their phone at lightning speed, nodding repeatedly to signal Azur Lane to continue.

Azure's originally powerful and unrepetitive accusations gradually slowed down, and her voice became softer.

Once she had calmed down, Officer Jenny adopted a serious expression.

"Besides committing fraud, they also framed researchers from the alliance, making their crime even more serious!"

With a click, Azure received a rose gold bracelet, and even its Poké Ball was locked away.

Officer Jenny escorted her into a police car, her eyes fixed on Natsuno as if she wanted to kill him.

Natsuno shrugged and whispered something to A-Du.

The latter frowned after listening: "Are you sure? Is it believable?"
