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

The double-axe war dragon was majestic, and every step it took seemed to have a thousand pounds of force. It slowly cleared the way ahead with heavy and steady steps.

Its steel-hard body shuttled through the bushes, making a rustling sound.

Having lived on Dragon Island for a long time, it has been trained and is adept at clearing out the messy bushes and weeds.

It was seen waving its powerful forelimbs, and wherever it went, obstacles were pushed aside, opening up a relatively easy path for the people behind it.

Behind the double-axe war dragon, Lin Yi and Qin Xin followed slowly.

Qin Xin looked reluctant, holding Dayu tightly in her arms, staring at Lin Yi with eyes like sharp arrows, and shouted loudly in dissatisfaction:

"Why should I be on the same team with you?"

"If you don't want to, just go away."

Lin Yi looked indifferent, without even turning his head. There was no room for negotiation in his tone, and he directly retorted,

"If you're not afraid of being attacked by wild Pokémon on this island, you can give it a try."

When Qin Xin heard this, she felt like a duck with its neck strangled. Her words got stuck in her throat and her face turned pale and red.

She closed her mouth in indignation. Although she was unhappy, she knew that what Lin Yi said was true. She could only follow Lin Yi obediently, step by step, muttering a few words from time to time to vent her resentment.

Earlier, a maintenance technician crawled out from under the hull, his face covered in oil and looking tired, and said that it would take at least three days to completely repair the ship.

This made everyone worried, because the food and water would not stop being consumed just because they stopped.

To make matters worse, Absol's "Future Cognition" happened to hit the warehouse directly.

The good news is that after checking, there was not much damage to the food.

But the bad news was that the fresh water tank near the warehouse was leaking and clear fresh water was flowing out.

Although there is still a lot of reserve water left on the ship and the desalination device is working non-stop, there are more than 20 people on board and the daily demand for fresh water is extremely high, and the supply is still insufficient to meet the demand.

This isolated island is located in a remote area and is surrounded by the vast ocean. There are few ships passing by on weekdays, so Professor Shang Hefeng made a prompt decision and arranged for people to search around the island to see if they could find a source of fresh water.

Lin Yi had previously had a fierce battle with Absol, demonstrating his strong ability to protect himself.

In addition, he is strong and as a trainer, his reaction ability and ability to deal with crises are naturally better than other simple researchers, so he was selected for the search team without a doubt.

At present, except for Yunlan, who is injured and bedridden and still recuperating, everyone else on the ship is busy.

The grouping of personnel was decided by drawing lots. Lin Yi and Qin Xin were in one group, Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu were in one group, and Tianyu and Yan Guang, who had just recovered from a serious injury, were in one group.

Lin Yi was leisurely playing with a delicate device between his slender fingers. This was the key tool for this expedition - an infrared remote sensor.

Its working principle is based on the fact that water bodies and their surroundings have completely different radiation characteristics in the infrared band, and it can keenly detect hidden traces of freshwater resources such as rivers and lakes.

Thanks to the strong support of abundant funds, this expedition was well prepared and the team was equipped with all the necessary equipment, including almost all high-tech instruments to deal with various unknown situations.

Qin Xin was also holding an identical infrared remote sensor. She inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lin Yi fiddling with the device with a slightly hesitant look. The corners of her mouth instantly curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and she taunted him unceremoniously:

"You don't know how to use it? Humph, you are such an amateur. Don't let me down at the critical moment."

Lin Yi raised his eyes slightly, glanced at her lightly, and his slender fingers operated the equipment skillfully.

In just a moment, the device was turned on, and various parameters flashed in order on the screen.

The mockery on Qin Xin's face froze instantly after being slapped in the face by an invisible force. She felt her cheeks burning hot and asked in a whisper:

"You, how come you're using this? Aren't you a trainer who only trains Pokémon?"

"Nonsense, my mom is also a researcher, and I have been exposed to these things since I was a child."

Lin Yi looked calm and responded slowly.

"Your mother is..." Qin Xin became curious and asked.

"An Qing." Lin Yi uttered two words concisely.

"Dr. An Qing? Your mother is actually Dr. An!"

Qin Xin screamed in surprise, her beautiful eyes wide open, full of shock and disbelief. She stared at Lin Yi without blinking, as if she wanted to re-examine the person in front of her.

In the field of Pokémon research, the title of PhD represents the highest academic status.

As the youngest female Pokémon doctor, An Qing has become an idol for countless female researchers in China who have dreams of doing scientific research, thanks to her many groundbreaking research results. Her reputation is at its peak.

Lin Yi nodded slightly, said "hmm" softly, and said no more. He continued to fiddle with the device in his hand while moving forward steadily along the established route.

"Wait a minute, I was rude just now, I apologize."

Qin Xin's face flashed with annoyance, and she hurriedly took a few steps to catch up with him, with a flattering voice.

"Don't be angry. I won't pursue the matter of you teasing me in the bath. How about that?"

When this matter was mentioned, she felt an inexplicable sourness in her heart.

"What happened between me and Mi Yu has nothing to do with you, right?"

Lin Yi stopped abruptly, turned around, and looked at Qin Xin with cold eyes.

The questioning tone made Qin Xin's heart tighten. She opened her mouth and stammered for a long time, but she couldn't say anything.

Seeing that Qin Xin was like a gourd with a sawed-off mouth, unable to utter a single word for a long time, Lin Yi sighed helplessly, thinking to himself that it was really difficult to communicate with this girl, and he had to make a quick decision and find a water source.

So, he stretched out his hand to Qin Xin and said bluntly:

"Give me the remote control of this device. Didn't the professor tell me to bring all these small items with you before we left? "

"Oh."

Qin Xin seemed to have changed her personality this time. She was surprisingly well-behaved. She didn't talk back or make sarcastic remarks like usual. She just silently winked, signaling Dayu Monster to use its superpowers to pass the bag hanging on it to Lin Yi.

The Dayu monster blinked its big round eyes, a blue light flashed, and the bag was hanging steadily in front of Lin Yi.

Lin Yi took the bag and unzipped it neatly. He glanced inside the bag and saw a pink remote control lying brightly on the top.

This thing stood out among the pile of gray tools. Lin Yi couldn't help but frowned and wondered:

"Hmm? Is this what the remote control of this device looks like? Why is it different from what I remembered?"

Thinking about it, he reached out and took out the remote control. The moment he picked it up, he saw a small indicator light on it, with the words "Working" displayed next to it.

Now, Lin Yi's face was filled with even more suspicion. It was obvious that something was wrong.

"Wait, that's not the remote!"

Qin Xin had been watching silently at the side, but when she saw the pink remote control in Lin Yi's hand, her eyes instantly widened as if she had seen a ghost, and her face turned pale and red.

She no longer cared about being reserved, she reached out her hand in panic and rushed forward, trying to get the remote back as soon as possible.

But how could it be too late?! Lin Yi subconsciously tightened his fingers, and just before Qin Xin's fingertips touched the remote control, he had already pressed the button.

"drop!"

A crisp sound broke the silence around, and it seemed particularly abrupt in this empty wilderness.

Immediately afterwards, a series of "beep, beep" sounds rang out, and the rhythm became faster and faster, as if some kind of triggered precision machine was running frantically.

Under Lin Yi's instantly petrified and confused gaze, Qin Xin's face suddenly turned red like a ripe tomato.

As the annoying sound continued, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, her legs softened, and she almost collapsed to the ground. Her hands frantically groped around her body, and she stammered:

"Quick, turn it off..."

Lin Yi lowered his head and stared at the "culprit" in his hand. He felt his scalp tingling, his heart shuddered, and he took a breath of cold air.

Oh my god, this...

Could it be the remote control he imagined?

In this remote place, a man and a woman alone, if something unexpected happens, how will it end?
