Pokémon: Hoenen Rage

Chapter 97
Time passes day by day.

On the morning of the third day, Merck arrived with people and planned to stay and help while others went back. Lai, who was seriously short of manpower, gratefully agreed.

After receiving help, Lai assigned part of the work of persuading students to Merck, and began to eliminate the gangs in nearby areas, semi-forcefully bringing the misguided students back to Tianshui Island and arranging for them to go to school.

On the evening of the seventh day, the school's construction has been basically completed. A brand new three-story teaching building has been built. If everything goes well, after two to three days, the internal facilities will be installed and teaching can officially begin.

That night, Lai got a message from Zhou Zhu who had just returned from work at the dock.

While at work, he heard someone whisper that the gangs in several nearby islands had been frightened by Lai during this period. Several gangs had been uprooted, and the remaining ones were in despair. They all found the largest gang in the Nanhai Islands on Tianshui Island. ——Spiny Dragon.

Lai was not surprised by this news, because it was only a matter of time, and he had the opportunity to accomplish his feats in one battle.

He touched Zhouzhu's little head and said seriously: "Thank you very much, Zhouzhu, this is very important news. Now you can go back and have a good rest. The teacher will take care of it. Class will start in two days. You'd better It’s better to recuperate at home and come back.”

Zhou Zhu nodded and was about to leave when he turned back: "Teacher Lai, you should also pay attention. The Thorny Dragon Gang is very powerful. The mayor and others usually dare not provoke them and do not go to the neighborhood where they are. In addition, you You don’t look good, go to bed early.”

Lai laughed dumbly: "Okay, you go ahead, I will pay attention to it, don't worry."

After sending Zhouzhu away, Lai touched his face and then patted it hard twice.

"Slimy Treasure, Swamp Leap Fish, Marilou, let's go!"

"Mio!"

no!You have to rest!
"Lilu!"

That's right!You need to rest!

The two little guys refused in unison. On the side, the Swamp Jumper also looked serious and sat Lai down on the bed.

The elf ball flashed, and the big-billed gull couldn't listen anymore and took the initiative to come out.

It spread its wings and pointed at the mirror in the distance.

"Bay!"

Go and see for yourself!

Lai walked over and found that he did not look good at this moment.

However, time is a bit tight, so we still have to hurry up and solve it.

Driven by a strong sense of responsibility and urgency, he planned to go to the bathroom to wash his face, and then continue to set off to solve the problem of the Thorny Dragon Gang tonight.

About to open the door.

"Bakou!"

Swampert stood in front of the door, pointing to the bed with a serious expression.

"Mio!"

Niannibao stood in front of Lai angrily.

"Lilu!"

Marilu patted Lai's leg.

"Mio!"

Nian Nian Bao understood immediately, and a huge drop of life water condensed and fell on Lai's body, replenishing his energy and making him even more sleepy. He couldn't hold it anymore, so he lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Several Pokémon looked at each other, breathed a sigh of relief, stayed by the bed, and rested early.

······
When he woke up the next day, Lai, who was in great spirits, was helpless and relieved to see his friends lying next to the bed sleeping together. Unfortunately, because he failed to set off last night, he lost the opportunity. He could only deal with it head-on and might not be able to do it later. It went very smoothly, and he was pleased with his partner's infinite concern for him. This kindness made him very warm.

The deal was done, and there was no point in regretting it. Looking at the watch, it was already past nine o'clock. After a rare sleep, Lai, who had about twelve hours of sleep, took his friends and set out to find the mayor.

In the mayor's office, Lai and the mayor quietly communicated about the Thorny Dragon Gang.The mayor is also quite conflicted about this gang that has been active in the local area for some time.

First, there are a lot of people in gangs, and most of them are in their teens or 20s. They don’t have serious jobs and have few opportunities to find jobs. Taking action rashly may cause turmoil.

Second, this gang is different from the social dregs of the neighboring island. They do not do any evil. At most, they are a few gangsters who cause trouble. From the leader to the cadres, they have a better bottom line. They even act as a social gang at a time when the guard and the public security station are difficult to maintain. The role of the vigilante.

Third, the gang leader Yuzuo is outstanding in strength, and several of his cadres are also quite impressive. The escort team, which has been compressed to the extreme on the island, and the security station, which has no manpower, can be said to be in name only, and it is objectively difficult to eliminate them.After hearing the mayor's introduction, Lai roughly understood.Unlike the previous enemies, this group of people seems to be the kind of "righteous thieves" with a bottom line, or even more like "robbers" like Robin Hood.Lai was somewhat curious about such people, and did not intend to strike hard like other gangs. Perhaps, there was a solution that did not require the use of weapons.

Having made up his mind, Lai said that he would visit the Spinosaurus in person on his territory tonight.

The mayor was shocked by this proposal and refused it on the spot. Lai's safety is currently the top priority for the town's ability to successfully restore the school. Although the gang seems to be doing well, how dare the mayor dare to allow both money and effort to be accepted? Is Lai, who teaches and educates people, personally in danger?

Lai repeatedly explained and proved his strength, but the mayor was still uneasy, and finally agreed that the last few members of the town's escort team would follow him and be responsible for the outer protection.

After finishing the matter, Lai went to the school. Merck had already known the news and was waiting here.

Seeing Rai's arrival, Merk immediately released his four Pokémon, saying that he would also go with him.

Knowing Merck's strength, the two have cooperated and trained together many times, and they have a tacit understanding. Based on this, Lai naturally has no reason to refuse.

In the following time, the two conducted simple training together, and Lai also took the time to make a large number of high-quality energy cubes, especially practicing the production method of dragon-type cubes.

The formula provided by the alliance is very novel, completely different from Lai's style, but it is indeed very subtle, and has its own advantages and disadvantages from Lai's own method.

During the production process, with his keen perception of the power of the heart, Lai quickly mastered the principles and began to try to select the beneficial parts and incorporate them into his own style.

······
Soon, it was nighttime, the town's escort was in place, and Lay and Merck were ready.

Before leaving, Lai called Naqi's phone again. This time, after ringing for a long time, he finally got a reply.

Naqi opposite seemed to be in the wild at the moment, covered in dust, and a mountain or mound could be vaguely seen behind her.

As soon as the call was connected, Naqi said in a bad tone: "Oh? Isn't this our Principal Lai who is busy with official duties? Why, you finally have the time and mood to take some time out and care about your poor acquaintances?"

Faced with Naqi like this, Lai naturally did not dare to say anything. Moreover, thinking about what happened before, it was indeed his words and attitude towards Naqi that seemed alienated, which hurt this friend who was very sincere to him.

So, Lai, who felt wronged, sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, Naqi, as you know, I have always regarded you as a good friend, and we have also had the experience of sharing hardships. I am really sorry for making you feel sad. It's just my thinking." No week. I received the previous 2000 million, and I am very grateful, it helped me a lot, and I will return it to you later when I have more money.”

After hearing the previous words, Naqi's face was faintly happy, but it was not shown under the unclear display of the screen.In the second half of the conversation, frost once again covered her jade-like face.

"You called just to talk about paying back the money?"

"No, no, that's not what I meant. I'm going to deal with the gangsters here soon. Before I left, I thought it would be great if I could contact you, so I made the call."

"Oh? Then you are quite busy." Naqi was still angry, but concern flashed in the corner of her eyes.

"During this period, I always think of my experiences with you, and I miss that time very much. What happened before was my fault. I hope you can forgive me. I wonder if the magnanimous Miss Naqi can forgive me. Give stupid me a chance to make the mistake?"

Naqi on the other side of the screen couldn't help laughing when she saw the always serious Lai acting like this. Most of the anger that had already disappeared disappeared, and her sullen face instantly broke through her defenses, revealing a cute smile.

"In this case, do I assume that you forgive me?"

"It's not that simple. When you come back from the fight and prepare a review of about [-] words, you will almost have a chance."

"Good guy, dear Ms. Naqi, I think you are more suitable to be the principal of this school than me, and you are more suitable to be the dean of students."

"I always feel that you are thinking about something very rude! Are you calling me old and mean?"

"Nothing! It's time to go, I'm leaving first!"

"Hey, stop! What kind of gang are you fighting? Remember to be careful."

".Well, okay, don't worry."

Putting down the illustration book in his hand, Lai scowled when he saw Merck beside him with a teasing face.

"Brother Merck, let's get ready to go and completely eliminate the gangs in this area tonight."

"Okay, okay, let's go and then come back to celebrate that our little brother Lai finally has his wits about him?"

"They are just friends who share weal and woe. You think too much."

"You are the leader, and everything you say is right."

······
After finally contacting Naqi again, resolving the misunderstanding, and partially repairing the relationship, Lai, who was relieved of a major issue on his mind, led everyone to set out, targeting the headquarters of the Thorny Dragon Gang.

There, Yusaku and several cadres, as well as the so-called "elites" of several gangs who had defected, had already received the news and were now preparing for the attack.
