Chapter 224 Xia Mouren's Own Retribution

Chapter 224 Xia Mouren's Own Retribution

A smile inexplicably appeared on Xia Mu's face. After taking out his badge box from his backpack, Xia Mu looked at the eight badges neatly arranged in the box, his expression filled with a satisfied happiness.

"Great, all eight badges have been collected!"

Pokémon players often have a collecting hobby, and Xia Mu is no exception.

Just like when Natsuki bought himself a complete Poké Ball collection set when he had enough money, he was already thinking about finding a picture frame shop to store these badges.

"When I get back, I'm going to get a big cabinet to store my Junior Cup trophies, my collection of Poké Ball sets, badges, and oh yeah, Z-Crystals and Mega Stones—"

Xia Mu wasn't sure exactly how much she would collect, but just imagining the scene made her smile happily.

However, Xia Mu was indulging in wishful thinking about the beautiful future.

At this moment, Yati could no longer hold back.

After the dojo battle, his inspiration could no longer be suppressed.

So, after handing over the badge, he looked at the absent-minded Natsuki and chose to leave the rest to the referee and Haruka.

The location where fragments of Heracross's horn were sent after the painting was completed.

In short, by the time Xia Mu realized what was happening, he was already standing at the entrance of Feiyun Dojo, with Xiao Yao holding the unicorn fragment and Zi and another girl filling out Xia Mu's address beside him.

"Speaking of which, where is Fenglu?"

While stuffing the unicorn fragments into his backpack, Xia Mu curiously inquired about Feng Lu's whereabouts.

Upon hearing Xia Mu's question, the two women's expressions immediately turned strange.

"Miss Fenglu's words—"

Da da da da!

Amid the whirring of the helicopter rotors, Feng Lu's excited voice came from the sky.

"Hahaha, I'm here! Are you all ready?!"

???

Xia Mu blinked.

"Where did this guy get this plane from?"

As Xiaoyao waved to the wind and dew in the sky, she explained to Xia Mu.

"It seems the Feng Lu family also has a cargo warehouse in Feiyun City, so she just left to pick up the plane from the warehouse, after all..."

"Miss Fenglu is in a great hurry to go to Raven City!"

Zi, who was speaking, looked at Xia Mu's expression and almost laughed.

"No way! Do you expect the three of us delicate girls to cross the desert with you from Route 4 back to Raven City in this weather?"

When faced with Xia Mu's attempt to walk to Raven City, Feng Lu refused without hesitation.

"Besides, haven't you been saying you wanted to leave Feiyun City as soon as possible? If I fly the plane, we can leave very quickly!"

Listening to Feng Lu's righteous and stern words, Xia Mu was very anxious.

Back in Raven City, there is Jun Shaxun who likes to trick people and Qiu Miao who might beat him up. In Feiyun City, there is Shus

Officera and Ady, who lusts after her own body.

Wanting to return to Raven City at the last minute and wanting to leave Flying Cloud City as soon as possible are not actually contradictory thoughts.

We left Flying Cloud City early, but because the sun was too strong on the way, we arrived back in Raven City a little late.

Even Joey Miao couldn't find any faults in it.

Xia Mu had originally planned it very well.

She even thought about the excuse she should give when Officer Jenny asked her, "Why didn't you take the car?"

For example, excuses like "As a trainer, you have to explore the world on foot" or "A trainer has to climb mountains and wade through rivers to see different Pokémon" are very appropriate in this situation.

but.

Because of Feng Lu's lousy behavior, he was seen as a strongman who refused to take the plane and deliberately delayed his journey to Raven City.

Thinking about Qiao Yimiao's reaction after finding out about this, Xia Mu couldn't help but shudder.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xia Mu immediately thought of an excuse to delay.

"Actually, I still need to discuss this with Dr. Zhenyan."

Xia Mu took out his plan from yesterday and handed it to the three women.

"Really, I'm not lying!"

Looking into Xia Mu's sincere eyes, the three women exchanged glances, all feeling that this guy was harboring some wicked intentions.

But after seeing the proposal, they couldn't find any reason to refuse, not to mention that Zhenyan's research institute was located in a high-rise building opposite the dojo.

Therefore, the three women finally agreed to Xia Mu's request.

Just as the three women decided to go with Xia Mu to visit Dr. Zhen Yan, Xia Mu, who was leading the way, secretly revealed a sinister smile.

All I need to do is have Zhenyan come up with some reason why I need to go to the desert for research, and I can stay in the desert for a day and then return to Raven City before the deadline.

Everything was perfectly reasonable, and no one could find any flaws in the plan!

Xia Mu revealed a smug smile.

but·

Just as Xia Mu walked to the building across the street.

"True swallow?"

Natsuki was stunned when he saw Zhenyan walking out of the building with a smile on her face.

Upon seeing Natsuki, Zhenyan immediately flashed a bright smile.

"Xia Mu, you've come at the right time. I have to go to Raven City for this year's symposium, so our research may have to be postponed!"

Xia Mu frowned.

Oh no! I didn't communicate with them on my phone beforehand because I was afraid Xiaoyao and the others would get suspicious. If Zhenyan continues talking, my perfect plan will be ruined.

Natsuki tried to think of a discreet way to remind Makoto, but Makoto, seeing Natsuki's expression, mistakenly thought that Natsuki was worried that he didn't have enough time to study.

Immediately, Zhenyan patted Xia Mu on the shoulder and burst into hearty laughter.

"Don't worry, although the research institute was attacked by the Phantom Thieves not long ago, Officer Jenny quickly retrieved all the data for me, so the research will resume soon. Moreover, I can take advantage of the two days I'm attending the seminar to upgrade the institute's security—"

As he spoke, under the warm sunlight, Zhen Gu stretched out a big yawn.

"Ah~ Come to think of it, it's been so long since I've felt this idle, it's kind of novel!"

Natsuki: "...."

Xia Mu suddenly felt like crying for some reason.

He captured a Phantom Thieves group, which led to him being targeted by the perverted Officer Jenny. In order to get away from Officer Jenny and challenge the gym, he encountered a perverted gym leader who stared at him with burning eyes. Desperate to leave, Big Smart brought a helicopter. He finally came up with an excuse to escape, but because he had captured the Phantom Thieves, the excuse instantly became useless.

"That damned Phantom Thieves!!"

Amidst Natsuki's grumbling, Haruka and the others greeted Makoto and then...

"We're going to Raven City too, why don't we go together!"

"Let's go together!"

"Hahahaha!" 4

The girls, with their silvery laughter, led Xia Mu onto the helicopter.
