Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

The look on Connor's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. That expression was like the sky before a storm, depressing and frightening.

His eyes revealed a ferocity like a sharp blade and a determination to burn his boats.

He was seen tightly gripping the Poké Ball in his hand, as if he was going to crush it. His voice was deep and powerful, like thunder exploding in my ears.

“Hand over the indigo blue gem, or no one will be leaving here today.”

(Hand over the indigo orb, or no one can leave here today.)

His words were like a cold, steely command, full of threats, and his tough tone left no room for doubt or defiance.

At this time, Sakurai Mizuki and Fujiwara Suye, who were standing aside, were just two insignificant women in Connor's eyes.

Although they possess certain strength and may have performed well in previous adventures, they are of no value to Connor in the current tense situation.

In fact, their existence is more like a burden, an obstacle that may affect his ability to achieve his goals.

That was why, just now, he ordered Steelix to attack without hesitation, completely disregarding their lives.

However, facing Connor's threatening words, Lin Guochang remained unmoved.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile. That smile was like sunshine penetrating through dark clouds, revealing an unparalleled confidence and composure.

Then he said softly:

"Can you speak Chinese?"

Connor Murphy was obviously a little overwhelmed by these sudden words. He uttered a puzzled "Huh?", his eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.

Please forgive Lin Guochang for his mediocre foreign language skills.

When he was a student, his ability as a trainer was remarkable, but in terms of cultural studies, he was only at an average level.

Especially his foreign language performance, which is simply terrible.

However, if we have to find a reason for it, perhaps we can only say that Lin Guochang was very patriotic, so he did not put too much energy into learning foreign languages.

Connor was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly reacted as if he had suddenly realized something.

Yes, he is in China now, and most people here speak Chinese.

After a while, Connor tried hard to communicate in Chinese. His voice with a thick accent and extremely poor pronunciation sounded:

"Ni, Nihao, Xie Xie, Xiao Long Bao, Xie Xie."

When Lin Guochang heard Connor's strange Chinese, he couldn't help but lower his head and fell into serious thinking.

How do you say foreign languages?

He tried hard to recall what his teacher taught him when he was in school.

"Come is e, go is go, nod yes, shake head no?"

Lin Guochang muttered softly. Then, he shouted to Connor:

"Are you ok? Hello?"

Connor spoke in a mixture of not-so-standard Chinese and English:

"Wohen is ok, mud trench?"

Lin Guochang also responded by recalling the English texts he was forced to recite by his English teacher during his school days.

"l am fine, thank you, and you?"

After Connor answered, he asked again:

"What's your name Mingzai?"

"My name is LiLei... Bah! No, my name is Lin."

The two of them had an awkward conversation back and forth, making the atmosphere on the scene suddenly silent.

When their respective Pokémon heard this strange conversation, they couldn't help but stop their original attacking actions, turned their heads and stared at their trainers in a daze, completely confused as to what was wrong with their trainers.

Sakurai Mitsuki, who only knew Neon, was fine and didn't react much.

However, Fujiwara Suye, who was proficient in multiple languages, couldn't help but widen her eyes full of doubt.

She looked at Lin Guochang for a while, then at Connor, opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but hesitated. She wanted to speak several times but swallowed the words back, and finally chose to remain silent helplessly.

At this time, Fujiwara Sumire was full of doubts. Why did these two people communicate with foreigners in a language they were not familiar with?

Aren't they enemies? Shouldn't they just fight? Why has it turned into a scene of learning a foreign language on the spot?

Lin Guochang gradually realized that something was wrong at this time. He frowned slightly and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to ask tentatively:

“what are you doing here?”

When Connor heard this, a hint of nervousness flashed across his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He responded hastily: "Wo is here to get the blue orb."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to measure the size of the orb.

Blue gem? Lin Guochang's mind was moved. Isn't that an indigo gem?

Thinking of this, his vigilance suddenly reached its peak.

Finally, Lin Guochang realized that the person in front of him was definitely not a friend, but an enemy, and he was coming for the indigo orb.

"it is this?"

Lin Guochang took out the container beside him and gently opened a small hole so that Connor could see the indigo orb inside.

"Yes, that's it! (Yes, that's it!)"

As soon as Connor saw the orb, his eyes lit up immediately, and his face showed an expression of joy that he could not hide. He nodded repeatedly, almost jumping up with excitement.

"Just you? You want to take the orb from me?"

Lin Guochang sneered disdainfully, gave him a middle finger, then quickly closed the container and put it away properly.

The other party is an outsider who crossed the border without permission and ran into the Chinese territory. Since he is an enemy, there is no need for Lin Guochang to be polite to him.

Then he patted Blastoise gently on the back, and Blastoise immediately understood the trainer's intention.

The Blastoise raised its head and let out a low and powerful roar.

The roar spread out powerfully in all directions like a surging wave, as if declaring its power and inviolability to its opponents.

"Fuck!"

Connor couldn't help but swear angrily.

He indeed did not understand Chinese, however, judging from Lin Guochang's provocative tone, contemptuous expression, and the extremely insulting middle finger he extended, he could fully understand what the other party meant.

Connor was furious at this moment. He did not expect that his actions would be met with such strong resistance and contempt.

Connor's face became increasingly gloomy, with flames of anger burning in his eyes.

He stared at Lin Guochang closely, and the Poké Ball in his hand creaked.
