Chapter 227 Gengar, Rotom.
"untie!"
The two people's eyes were colored again.
"Darkrai, why are you..."
Xiaoyun was a little confused.
But the gentle butler at the side showed a crazy expression at this time, and even his face became distorted due to excitement. He questioned Darkrai, "Almost, almost ate it, why did you interrupt me!!"
"Why would you harm us?"
Xiaoguang also reacted and questioned the housekeeper.
"You are a human, right? Humans are not good. The words 'passing by' and 'traveller' are all lies. You must be the same as that person 20 years ago, with ulterior motives."
The butler did not directly answer Xiaoguang's question, but spoke with a gloomy expression.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand a word you say."
Xiaoguang was completely confused. What did he mean by 20 years ago? She was not even born 20 years ago. This guy must have recognized the wrong person.
"I see."
Xiaoyun understood. The quiet manor, the housekeeper's strange words, the hypnosis just now, combined with the diary from decades ago, the answer was obvious.
Then he said to the butler calmly:
"The thing you're referring to is Rotom, right?"
"you...."
The butler's expression became even gloomier after hearing this, but before the butler could say anything, Xiaoyun said again:
"I guess you are not the steward of this manor either."
"Tell me, who are you...?"
After Xiaoyun finished speaking, the originally gentle butler showed a crazy smile, a strange black gas emerged from his body, and his body began to grow larger, and finally turned into a Pokémon that Xiaoyun was quite familiar with.
"Jie Jie!!"
"You are....Geng Gui!"
Xiaoyun said in surprise, looking at the purple-black body, short limbs, and scarlet eyes, it was the most common ghost-type Pokémon, Gengar.
Xiaoyun thought that the butler was Rotom, but if the butler is Gengar, then where is Rotom?
"Luo." A Pokémon with an orange body made of plasma and surrounded by blue translucent plasma suddenly flew out from the mural in the corridor.
"This Pokémon is..."
Xiaoguang had never seen this Pokémon before, so he subconsciously checked the Pokémon Encyclopedia.
Rotom, the plasma Pokémon.
This Pokémon has been studied for a long time because its electric body can enter some machines and be used as a power source to drive special motors.
"Geng Gui, and Rotom, so what is your purpose in doing this? If it's just a prank, isn't it a bit too much?"
Xiaoyun said to the two Pokémon.
"Hey!" Geng Gui did not answer, but his eyes showed a hint of ferocity. He condensed a huge purple-black energy ball in his hands and threw it directly at Xiaoyun.
"Luo!" Rotom did the same. Rotom quickly connected with the microwave on the fireplace. The microwave door opened and a blazing flame gushed out of the microwave.
"Darkrai!"
Darkrai understood what he meant and immediately his aura was fully activated. A terrifying mental force burst out from Darkrai, and he used his powerful superpowers to freeze the shadow ball and jet flame in mid-air.
Before Rotom and Gengar could make another move, Darkrai sent both attacks back with even greater power, causing the two Pokémon to hastily resist using their moves once again.
boom!
Darkrai appeared like a ghost, holding a shadow ball in each hand and pressing them on their bodies. With an explosion, Gengar and Rotom were subdued in an instant, and Rotom was forced to withdraw from the heating state.
After watching Darkrai's crushing battle, Xiaoyun came to the two Pokémon again, squatted down and asked, "How is it, can we talk now?"
“Jie…” (I’m sorry, Rotom. After all this time, I still haven’t been able to protect you. I’m still so useless.)
Gengar still ignored Xiaoyun and just looked at Rotom.
"Luo..." (You are all here to protect me, otherwise they wouldn't have died.)
Rotom shook his electromagnetic body.
"Hey, what are you two doing? You act like you're parting forever. Is it illegal to abuse Pokémon in this era? Or do I just look like a bad guy?"
Xiaoyun's mouth twitched. This scene of life and death made him look like a villain.
"Jie." (You hypocritical human, you want to capture Rotom, right? I won't let you succeed.)
"Um... I shouldn't have said this. Rotom isn't a very precious Pokémon. Why would I have to go to so much trouble? And, you were the one who framed us from the beginning."
Xiaoyun looked at Gengar with a helpless expression.
"Jie..." (I...)
Gengar was speechless, his fat body collapsed to the ground weakly.
Xiaoyun realized something was wrong. These two Pokémon seemed to have a story. They must have gone through something.
So Xiaoyun asked again: "Tell me, what have you experienced before that made you hate humans so much."
So under Geng Gui's explanation, their experiences began to unfold.
Back to 20 years ago, the genius researcher Mei accidentally discovered Rotom, a Pokémon with both electric and ghost attributes. Because Rotom was born from electrical appliances, the number of Rotom was scarce in the past, and the researchers also conducted research on Rotom.
However, due to some things, the research on Rotom was terminated and the researcher handed it over to his butler, who is also Gengar's master.
The butler has a pair of children. After the researcher left, the butler, the children, Rotom, and Gengar, who is still a Gastly, lived together in this forest mansion, and their life was quite happy.
Half a year later, one night, a young man came to Mori's mansion. His reason was exactly the same as Xiaoyun's. He said he was a passing traveler who wanted to stay here for one night.
The housekeeper took the young man in and let him live here, but what he didn't know was that the young man came here with a purpose. He was the researcher's mortal enemy, and the reason he came here was to find out the target of the researcher's research (that is, Rotom) and rob it.
But he couldn't find it after searching the mansion for a long time. He also had to deal with the butler's questions from time to time. In order to find the result without leaving any trace, a horrible idea came into his mind.
That is...poisoning the housekeeper's family!
That night, the young man poisoned the food for the housekeeper and his family, but was discovered by the older brother, who secretly put the poisoned food on the young man's plate.
After the meal, the young man realized something was wrong and hurried back to his room to find an antidote. At this time, the housekeeper came in and discovered what had happened. The enraged young man killed the housekeeper directly, but he knew that the matter was exposed, so he picked up a knife and rushed to the hall to kill the remaining brothers and sisters.
