Chapter 70: Time is Running Out

"Are you ready?" the girl asked.

"Hey, hey, don't worry, my lord, everything has already been prepared, as long as you give the order, we will ......"

"Idiot!" the girl angrily scolded the middle-aged man in front of her, who was obviously much older than her, "Who asked you this, I mean the protective measures are done!"

The middle-aged man did not show a threatening attitude towards the girl because of his age - it could even be said that he was afraid of the girl.

"Yes...... Of course, everything is carried out according to the arrangement of the adults, and the small guarantee is absolutely foolproof!"

The man's bloated and ugly face was now being washed by sweat over and over again because of the girl's slight anger.

"Hmph! What a bunch of useless guys! It's as useless as the leader named Iiki!"

The girl jumped on her big bird and stopped looking at the man below.

"Let's just go according to the plan, but don't make any mistakes, if anything goes wrong...... You should know the punishment of Boss Iiki!"

After that, the girl didn't stay here for long, jumped up on the big bird, and disappeared from the field of vision of the cadres of Team Rocket in an instant.

"I have to do this kind of thing, it's too inefficient......" The girl bit her fingers and instantly turned into a human radar, refusing to let go of everything in Kikyo City.

"Flower Feather...... You idiot sister, where the hell are you going to play!"

On the other side, everyone in Team Rocket, who was mercilessly left by the girl, was staring at each other, and finally had to turn to the man who was talking to the girl just now.

"Captain...... What are we going to do now?Are we going to carry out the plan or send someone to find Hua Ya back?This plan can't be done without her......"

After listening to the worries of his subordinates, the man didn't do anything, just turned around silently and said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if I let me carry out the rest, you can just follow the original plan, it's just ...... I gave you the 'plan', understand?"

The questioning subordinate swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and then immediately replied: "Yes, understood!"

After all his subordinates went to work, the man looked at the sky above Hua Ya just now.

"I don't know what Boss Itaki thinks, he actually let such a little girl who can't even remember his name send her, and she sat on my head......! But ......."

The corners of the man's mouth moved, and an evil smile quickly crawled all over every piece of fat on his face.

"Let me, the boss's most loyal men, test how much this new captain is capable of!"

A new day had arrived, but Leo Lu didn't feel much more pleasant.

"Sure enough...... The most boring thing is after getting sick......"

Letting his body move, Leolu knew that his injuries had fully recovered, but the problem was the so-called "internal injuries".

"However, fortunately, I survived the challenge of Ah Su, and if I came to fight for the second time with this intensity, I guess I would really cry~"

Smirking to himself, Leolu looked out the window.

"Wow, it's so late?!Ikki and they should have left...... Looks like I'm really going to have to stay in bed all day!"

The building, called the Tower of Trumpet's Buds, was much more interesting than lying down, though Leo Road wasn't interested.

"Forget it, let's go find the fire dinosaur later...... It...... I guess I wasn't taken away by Ikki, right?"

With that in mind, Leolu slowly propped himself up and jumped out of the hospital bed.

Walking to the door of the ward with difficulty, he was about to push the door with a sudden movement, and his ears moved reflexively.

It is a faint sound made by a woman whose mouth is forcibly gagged.

"Hmm...... Hmm...... Help me...... Uh-huh, ......!"

This is...... Kidnap?!

The waveguide turned on instantly, but Leo Lu unexpectedly did not observe any suspicious figures around him, only those who came to see him, and then the faint movement in his ears disappeared without a trace.

"Bump!"

The door was pushed open with force, and Leo Lu jumped down the hallway, but found no trace, as if everything was a hallucination.

"This ...... Could it be that I'm hallucinating?"

He stood still, patted his head hard with his paws, and used the waveguide again, but still found nothing new.

“…… Anyway, let's make sure there's nothing wrong with the fire dinosaurs. ”

Leo Lu opened his legs and ran briskly towards the large dormitory where the elves had rested in the Elven Center.

And inside a certain door next to the corridor, a man in a capital "R" uniform slowly put down Joey, who had passed out in his arms, and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his head.

"Damn, I didn't expect to be so tired doing this, but ......" The fat on the man's face was all squeezed together because of the ugly smile, "That little Nizi's information actually works, so it seems that it should be able to successfully complete an extra quick order, hehehehehe-hee-"

Taking out the Poke Ball, the man said to the purple mist elf floating in the air, "Thank you for your hard work, Ghost, come back quickly!"

The ghost didn't immediately come closer, but hesitated for a few seconds, until the man glanced at it, and then reluctantly returned to the Poké Ball.

Seeing the red light flashing, the smile on the man's face instantly turned into disgust, he spat at the Poke Ball in his hand fiercely, and scolded: "Cut, useless thing, I almost didn't hold on to it just now, if we are discovered, I ......"

The man sighed, put the Poké Ball on the wall and wiped it before putting it in his pocket with a look of disgust.

After doing all this, the man turned to look at Joey, who had fallen to the ground unconscious.

"Hey, hey, I didn't expect Joey to look the same in the city, it's really amazing!"

Looking around, the man realized that he had come to just an ordinary guest room, and he couldn't help but be speechless.

"It's a small place, I'll see where I can hide her...... Hey, just throw it in the closet!"

After tearing the sheets on the bed, the man tied Joey's hands and feet firmly, and just like that, he pushed open the large closet in the room and put it in at will.

As for why he didn't gag Joey? Obviously, he did it on purpose.

"Now wait for that little girl to finish the rest of the work...... But if it's slow...... Anyway, it's not my business, hehehehe......"

After that, the man no longer concealed it, and swaggered out the door.

At this time, Kanto, Shinshin Town, inside Dr. Ohki's research institute.

"Leolu, I'll look for information...... Ah, it looks like he's gone to the city with a trainer named Kazuki, and he's not going back for a while......"

A young man in a red turban and a green shirt operated a computer and said to the two elves next to the chair in embarrassment.

"That's right...... Anyway, thank you for telling us this information!"

Chirulian bowed slightly to Xiao Jian in the chair.

Xiao Jian turned around and raised his hands innocently: "You don't have to thank me, after all, you two have also helped me a lot, in the time when Dr. Damu rushed back, if it wasn't for your help, I would definitely not be able to complete it......"

Chirulian nodded, "Alright then, now that we have the information we want, we'll take our leave!"

With that, Chirulian grabbed Larulas' small hand, her eyes glowing pink, apparently using superpowers.

"Well, walk slowly!Stay safe~"

Chirulian nodded, then opened the door to the institute at a speed far greater than normal human running, and hurried towards the nearest bus station......

Leolu, on the other hand, after finding the fire dinosaur and telling it what had just happened, left the Elven Center with him and headed for the Trumpet Bud's Tower, hoping to inform Ikki of them.

In an unknown forest somewhere in the capital, an old man sitting at the counter of a quaint shop with a ledger is coughing slightly......
