For others, it might just be tens of thousands of dollars, but for Grandpa Lian, it was a lifetime of hard work.

Now that a lifetime of effort had vanished in an instant, Grandpa Lian, who had suffered his whole life, broke down and chose to commit suicide by drinking poison.

Of course, he probably couldn't accept that he had become a burden to his grandson…

Wiping away tears, Lian the Snake Doctor got up from the ground and kowtowed heavily towards the bed.

“Grandpa, don’t worry, this matter won’t end like this.” A fierce glint flashed in Lian the Snake Doctor's eyes.

Although the culprit had long fled when the police investigated the stronghold, Lian the Snake Doctor knew that Lu Li should have information about that organization.

After all, Lu Li had originally told him the news, and now the only one who could help him might be Lu Li.

In this world, poor families are more open-minded about death, so Lian the Snake Doctor didn't hold a funeral for his grandfather.

Firstly because he had no money, and secondly because it was unnecessary.

After hurriedly burying his grandfather, Lian the Snake Doctor called a taxi.

“Go to Anmin District in the eastern suburbs,” Lian the Snake Doctor said in a hoarse voice.

Looking at the young man exuding a gloomy aura, the taxi driver quickly replied, “Okay.”

Lian the Snake Doctor lived in the northern suburbs, which wasn't too far from Lu Li's home.

20 minutes later.

Looking at the small courtyard in front of him, a hint of envy flashed in Lian the Snake Doctor's eyes.

Although Lu Li, like him, had lost his parents early, Lu Li's family was much better off.

Gently knocking on the door, Lian the Snake Doctor felt a little nervous.

When he called the police earlier, he didn't mention Lu Li, so as not to involve Lu Li. No matter which city it was, criminal organizations were very dangerous.

In particular, the revenge of criminal organizations was the most dangerous of all.

Lian the Snake Doctor didn't know if Lu Li would help him, after all, they had only met a few times.

After a while, the door opened.

Lu Li looked at Lian the Snake Doctor in front of the door in surprise.

“Lian the Snake Doctor? Come in first.” After Lu Li finished speaking, he led Lian the Snake Doctor into the courtyard.

Seeing the fruit trees, Charmander, and Tropius in the courtyard, Lian the Snake Doctor felt even more envious.

That was a Charmander! Only Lu Li at Qingfeng City No. 1 Middle School had a starter Pokémon.

After leading Lian the Snake Doctor to the stone table in the courtyard, Lu Li poured him a cup of tea before asking, “What's the matter?”

“My grandfather is dead,” Lian the Snake Doctor replied in a hoarse voice.

Before Lu Li could ask, Lian the Snake Doctor continued to say to himself, “After you reminded me, I rushed home to persuade my grandfather not to be deceived, but it was too late. In the end, I chose to call the police.

But those damn bastards received the news in advance, and in the end, the police found nothing, and the money my grandfather was cheated out of was not recovered. Last night, my grandfather committed suicide because of this.”

Hearing this, Lu Li's pupils shrank.

At this moment, Lu Li's mood was also a bit complicated.

He was wondering if he had called the police earlier, would Lian the Snake Doctor's grandfather not have had an accident? If he had taken down that pyramid scheme organization earlier, would there be fewer people deceived?

Such thoughts flashed through Lu Li's mind.

However, Lu Li quickly adjusted his mentality. That was just the most ideal state he had imagined. In fact, even if he had called the police, the result might have been the same as Lian the Snake Doctor's.

Lu Li didn't comfort Lian the Snake Doctor, because he knew that Lian the Snake Doctor didn't need comfort at this moment.

“The organization received the news in advance, so they withdrew in advance?”

Lian the Snake Doctor nodded.

“There's a mole in the police station?” Lu Li continued to ask.

Lian the Snake Doctor hesitated, he didn't know if someone inside the police station had tipped them off.

“It shouldn't be a mole.” Lu Li overturned his guess, and then continued, “This organization is obviously recent, it should be a criminal organization from another city that has drifted to Qingfeng City.

From the fact that the organization only targets ordinary families, it can be seen that the organization shouldn't be a powerful criminal organization, and may even be a temporary one.”

Lian the Snake Doctor asked suspiciously, “Then why could the organization know the news of the inspection raid on their stronghold in advance?”

“Psychic-type or Ghost-type Pokémon. The former can foresee the future and then use psychic powers to run away, the latter can detect the police in advance and then run away in advance.” Lu Li continued to analyze.

The psychic-type Pokémon in this world are very outrageous. A veteran-level psychic-type Pokémon may be able to learn to foresee the future.

Although foreseeing the future can only see a fragment of the future, and it's not necessarily accurate, psychic-type Pokémon can indeed detect the arrival of the police in advance, and then use teleport to run away in advance.

Thinking of this, Lu Li narrowed his eyes and tapped the stone table lightly.

Lu Li said with a certain tone, “That organization should be a pyramid scheme fraud organization, so it's more likely that there is a psychic-type Pokémon in the organization.

Moreover, the leader of that organization shouldn't be strong. From the fact that he only targets ordinary people, it can be seen that his strength is at most veteran-level, and may even be elite-level.

But that probability is not high. After all, an elite-level psychic-type Pokémon can make money doing anything, there's no need to commit crimes for money.”

“Veteran-level?” Lian the Snake Doctor was thoughtful, and then looked at Lu Li seriously and asked, “Can you find that organization?”

Hearing this, Lu Li was also frightened by the other party's boldness. Lu Li asked in surprise, “You don't want to deal with that organization yourself, do you?”

Lian the Snake Doctor nodded: “I want to avenge my grandfather!”

“Just with you, a rookie trainer?” Lu Li retorted.

“That's right, this matter can't be left like this. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, this is the principle that Arbok's mother taught me.” Lian the Snake Doctor replied with great determination.

“Wait, Arbok's mother?” Lu Li also reacted. This commoner Lian the Snake Doctor actually had a wild Pokémon as a backer?

Lian the Snake Doctor nodded: “That's right, Arbok's mother is a veteran-level late-stage Arbok. I can ask her to help me once.”

“Not enough, if that's all there is, then it's far from enough.” Lu Li shook his head.

As a Poison-type Arbok, it is twice as weak against Psychic-type, and Arbok is just a wild Pokémon, Arbok can't be the opponent of that Psychic-type Pokémon.

What's more, there may be more than one trainer inside that pyramid scheme organization. Lian the Snake Doctor is completely courting death by facing that organization alone.

Not to brag, even Lu Li can't guarantee that he can retreat unscathed from the counterattack of this organization, let alone go head-to-head with this organization.

This is also the reason why he didn't call the police before. What if that organization retaliated against him? What could he, a rookie trainer, use to resist?

It is right to help when you see injustice, but only if you have a knife in your hand.

Lu Li suggested: “I suggest you change your name and infiltrate the organization, and then cooperate with the police to take down the organization from the inside out.”

Lian the Snake Doctor was determined to take revenge, and he really admired Lian the Snake Doctor, so Lu Li decided to help him.

Well, a real verbal help.

“The family next door to me also joined the pyramid scheme organization and was deeply deceived. I can recommend you to the family next door and let you infiltrate the organization.” Lu Li continued.
