Chapter 45: The Righteous Dragon Ferry

Chapter 45: The Righteous Dragon: Justice and Ferry

Lihua, who was being stared at by a group of bigwigs around her, felt like a group of Huo Guangs sitting around Emperor Xuan of Han, which was like a thorn in her side.

Adu spoke first: "As the first person in the whole house who met Joker two nights ago, do you know what his purpose was in sneaking in here?"

Lihua recalled and opened her mouth several times, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

If Joker is not lying, then his intentions are indeed good.

That is, he suspected that Aldus, one of the four kings of the Quartz Alliance, or the family of Cai Shenye, the richest man in the Johto region, had other plans.

Because the wild Pokémon locked in their own storage room are lucky enough not to seek revenge on humans.

You want them to live in harmony with humans and become house elves? That's funny.

After being enlightened by Joker, Rika also felt strange.

As a top-level trainer, Aldus wouldn't be unable to figure out such a simple question, right?

But, she couldn't say it clearly.

After all, the other party is one of the four kings of the alliance. Wouldn't it be a grave offense to him if I tell him out?

What's more, that talented gentleman is the one my father wants to please.

"No, I don't know. I just wanted to go into the storage room to check out the Pokémon, and then I ran into Joker and his companion."

Lihua buried her head and said stubbornly.

"That's it..."

Adu is not an expert in psychology.

But he was also well-informed. Seeing that Lihua didn't dare to look at people, he knew that she was definitely not telling the truth.

At least, she didn't tell everything she knew.

"When you ran away from home the day before yesterday, did Joker come after you? The Dalubes he let go seemed to be of the same species as the one you took away.
According to the habits of the Dalubi tribe, they like to live in groups."

A'Du keenly discovered a problem and said in a deep voice:
"Where did the Dalubi you took go? According to their tribe's habit, they should have reunited afterwards, and the other three Dalubi were taken away by Joker..."

A'du's words made Lihua's face change drastically.

Yes, she remembered!

The other three Dalubys were rescued by Joker.

And this morning, they showed up at that nasty doctor's house.

Although it is possible that the three Dalubi came to me after I fainted.

And then he was rescued by that annoying guy.

But after careful recollection, Lihua remembered that those Dalubi were really too intimate with that annoying guy.

Although other Dalubi do not "hate" humans as much as his own, they at least "dislike" them.

How could they be so affectionate towards humans?
If Rika were forced to think of a human that the Dalubi might treat with intimacy.

She could only think of one—

Their savior, Joker!

In other words, those two annoying guys are the same person! ?
Noticed the fleeting change on Lihua's face.

A'Du said with empty eyes:
"It seems that you do have some information that we don't know. Can you tell us about it?"

Lihua bit her teeth tightly, "I... I don't know, I really don't know..."

Now Lihua understood why Su Sheng kicked him out.

But, I can't betray him!

At this moment, everyone in the hall realized that something was wrong.

And Cai Shenye also discovered the blind spot.

"Little Lihua, did Joker treat the wound on your hand for you?"

Liyue also frowned, staring at her daughter's bandaged left elbow.

"No, no!"

Lihua quickly hid her hands behind her back.

However, her startled attitude only deepened everyone's suspicion.

Aldus, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke:
"If Miss Lihua really doesn't want to speak up, why don't you let my Alakazam do it for you?"

As he spoke, Aldus's Alakazam jumped out.

Everyone instantly understood what Aldous meant.

He wants to use hypnosis! Lihua's pretty face turned pale.

Of course she understood the horror of hypnosis.

Any human being under the control of hypnosis will reveal all the secrets hidden in his heart.

"Father!"

Lihua can only turn to her father Liyue for help.

However, after a brief moment of contemplation, Liyue gave an answer that made Lihua feel as if she had hit rock bottom.

"can."

Lihua's pupils lost focus in an instant.

Why?
Lihua obviously doesn't understand the ways of the world.

The day before yesterday, her Dalubi almost bit off Aldus' arm, which made Liyue's situation in the Johto business district extremely embarrassing.

This can be considered as "paying back a debt".

"no!"

However, although Li Yue, as a father, agreed, two people objected.

One is the good old man Dama Lanqi.

The other one, a little unexpectedly, was Adu.

Dama Lanqi frowned, "Li Yue, it is very dangerous to use hypnosis on people."

Not everyone is a super rookie like Xiaozhi, who can be hit by 100,000 volts and jets of flame every day and still be fine.

Pokémon are too powerful for humans.

If you allow supernatural power to invade your brain and fail to control the intensity, it is possible that it can turn a person into an idiot.

Damalanchi even explicitly opposed Junsa's interrogation method on criminals.

A'Du also said: "She is not a criminal, there is no need to use this method."

Although Adu felt that the death of criminal organizations such as Team Rocket and Shadow was not a pity.

A'du absolutely supported the use of hypnosis on them.

But Lihua is not a criminal, and Adu would not and would not use this method.

All I can say is that A'du, who has not yet turned evil and wants to carry out the [Human Purge Plan], still has a pretty positive outlook on life.

That's assuming he didn't run into Team Rocket.

"Forget it, forget it. The child just came home, and it's not good for so many of us to surround her and ask her questions."

Damalanqi spoke again:
"Let the child go back and rest first and have a good sleep first."

See the alliance president has spoken.

The others didn't know what to say, so they all stood up and prepared to leave.

"Lihua, from today on, you are not allowed to leave the house. No, you are not allowed to leave your room."

Li Yue said indifferently.

Lihua walked upstairs to her room in silence.

"Oh my, I go out occasionally and see a lot of rare things. It's true that if you live long enough, you will encounter all kinds of things."

After going out, Elder Long said with a smile.

"Brother Long, this is no small matter."

Damalanchi smiled bitterly.

The Joker incident can be said to have brought shame to the Alliance.

What makes Damalanchi feel a little bit worried is that the guy seems to have more and more fans among the people.

"Adu, they are openly challenging you, you as a 'critic' must not be looked down upon."

Elder Long joked to A'Du, as if he was hoping for chaos in the world.

The main reason was that he felt that Adu's growth path was a bit too smooth, and it was necessary to give him a warning.

"Humph!"

A'du had a lot to say about his grandfather's joke, but all of them were expressed in this displeased "snort".
