Pokémon: From Magikarp

"Tsk, tsk."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk."

"If you are sick, go get treatment and don't hang around me."

Lin Shi looked at Meng Wan who was clicking her tongue in his ear and said impatiently.

"Lin Shi is a very secretive person."

"I can meet you picking up girls even in this deep forest. How come this is also an accidental encounter?"

Meng Wan whispered as she got closer to Lin.

Lin Shi rolled his eyes at her, then tilted his head and leaned close to her ear.

“I would like to describe it in four words.”

"close……"

"Don't listen, don't listen..."

Meng Wan covered her ears, shook her head, and left Lin Shi's side.

"You guys know Lin Shi?"

"A classmate?"

On the other side, Qiu Ning and Meng Ge were walking side by side.

"Hmm..." Meng Gegang nodded.

"Not classmates, but rivals."

Meng Wan caught up with them from behind, trotted in front of the two people, and spoke fiercely while waving her fist.

"opponent?"

Qiu Ning smiled. As someone who had fought against Lin Shi before, she didn't think anyone in Baishan City could be Lin Shi's opponent.

The group quickly returned to Bai Shouli's home. When they opened the door, Aunt Yunfang came out immediately. She was slightly relieved when she saw Bai Shouli in the crowd. It was not difficult to tell from her bloodshot eyes that she must have not slept all night.

Bai Shouli was very lucky. After losing contact with Lin Shiqiuning, he neither encountered an elf nor fell into an illusion. He just lost his way because of the fog. Fortunately, he soon met Meng Ge and others who were looking for Meng Wan.

After that, I kept following them until I met Lin Shi and Qiu Ning.

When they returned to the house, the old man was sleeping in another room. Yunfang was considerate enough to prepare hot water for everyone.

"Suck it..."

Lin Shi took a sip of water and looked at Meng Wan.

"Tell me, why are you here?"

"Didn't I tell you that we're here to find Haunter?"

Meng Wan glanced at Meng Ge. She had just told her about seeing Haunter.

"So why did Haunter disappear here, and what are you doing here?"

Lin Shi continued to ask.

"It's not that Haunter disappeared after we came here, but that we came here after Haunter disappeared."

The person who spoke was Meng Ge. Lin Shi would be amazed by her clear and cold voice no matter how many times he heard it.

"You mean Haunter went missing in the city?"

"That's right." Meng Ge nodded.

"Yesterday during training, I noticed that Haunter was acting very abnormally. He seemed a little restless and kept looking at some unknown place."

"But I didn't take it seriously at the time. Who would have thought that Haunter suddenly disappeared last night? Fortunately, due to its erratic behavior, I had already installed a locator on it."

"When we found out it was missing, we hurried here based on the location in the locator."

At this point, Meng Ge frowned slightly, smoothed his hair with his hand and continued:

"But probably because of the heavy fog, the locator stopped working soon after we arrived here and we lost our direction."

"We have no choice but to find the village chief as a guide and have him take us to search for the places where Haunter may appear, hoping to find its trace."

After listening to Meng Ge's words, Lin Shi and Qiu Ning understood why they were here.

"According to Meng Ge, Haunter should have just arrived here last night, so what happened before should have nothing to do with it."

Qiu Ning looked at Meng Ge and Meng Wan and said.

Meng Ge nodded and continued:

"Of course, it was only after I came here that I learned about the rumors about ghosts in the village from Village Chief Bai."

"And I think the reason why my Haunter appeared here inexplicably must be related to this ghost."

"Although I don't know why these things happened, anyway, as the trainer of Haunter, it is my responsibility to bring it back."

Meng Ge said in a soft but firm tone.

"We have come face to face with that ghost thing today, but we still don't know what its purpose is."

"There is no signal here, and we cannot effectively communicate with the outside world. If something goes wrong, we will be in a passive position. At present, it seems that the safest way is to send someone out to call the Security Bureau to come over."

Lin Shi pinched his chin and said thoughtfully.

It is not difficult to see from the situation just now that with their strength, it is not an easy task to capture the ghost.

Thinking of this, Lin Shi looked at Qiu Ning and said:

"Sister Qiu Ning, if this is just an investigation, has our mission been completed?"

Qiu Ning raised his eyebrows, thought about it carefully, and finally shook his head slowly.

"No, even though we encountered the ghost, we didn't actually see its appearance clearly, and we don't know what kind of Pokémon it is. This means the mission is not completed at all."

"Tsk, trouble..."

Lin Shi muttered, this was pretty much what he thought.

"How about this, Sister Qiu Ning and I will complete the mission, and Meng Ge and you guys have to find the elves. I think we can work together." Lin Shi proposed to everyone.

Meng Ge and the others looked at each other, and finally Meng Ge nodded to show his agreement.

"So what do we do now?"

Meng Wan pouted and looked at Lin Shi.

"The most urgent task is to find out the strength of this elf. Now it seems that this elf will only appear at night. In this case, it is best for us to wait for it at night."

"But I'm worried that with our strength, doing this is not just waiting for the rabbit to come, but walking into a trap ourselves."

Lin Shi frowned and said with some concern, it was a pity that the fog was too thick at night and he couldn't see the ghost thing clearly, otherwise it would not be difficult to determine its level and strength using the system.

"Hey, you don't have to worry about this problem."

Meng Wan said with a smile, then slowly walked to the fat woman who came with them, stretched out her hand and placed it on her shoulder affectionately.

"Our Aunt Song is a very good trainer."

"Haha, Xiaowan, you're joking. I'm not that great. I just trained elves a few years longer than you."

The fat woman smiled kindly and spoke modestly.

"Oh."

After hearing Meng Wan's words, Lin Shi turned his gaze to the fat woman again. She had been following Meng Ge since they met.

Apart from exchanging a few pleasantries with a few people, she just listened to everyone's discussion without saying a word, looking like an ordinary nanny.

"Yes, Aunt Song is a genuine gym leader-level trainer, so there should be no problem with her strength."

Meng Ge also nodded and added.

Hearing this, Lin Shi and Qiu Ning were both shocked.

This fat woman who looks plain and seems to have no temper at all is actually a gym leader-level trainer!

You have to know that in order to become a gym-level trainer, she needs to have at least six Pokémon that have reached the gym leader level, and each Pokémon that has reached the gym leader level must be at least level 50.

Her strength can be imagined. I think she should be the person used by the Meng family to protect the two sisters.

With the help of a gym owner-level expert, Lin Shi felt a little relieved.

"Since we have such a powerful trainer like Aunt Song, let's meet this waving ghost again tonight..."

"As for the location of Haunter, leave it to me to determine."

Lin Shi said to everyone with a confident smile.
