Chapter Ninety-Three: Hug It~
Yuanzhu City, a world-famous historical capital, is prosperous in Buddhism and religious culture.
In fact, in terms of economy, science and technology, land size, population, etc., it is completely inferior to the largest metropolis in the Johto area, Manjin City.
The relationship between Manjin City and Yuanzhu City can be referred to Tokyo and Kyoto in the island countries.
Therefore, Yuanzhu City does not have too many towering, uneven modern office buildings, and because it is located in the forest between the forest of the bowl and the large plain on the west bank of the nearby city capital, Yuanzhu City has its own light and rhyme ancient style and natural atmosphere.
Compared with the high-rise buildings that are full of Shuizhou Town, the buildings on the street are more of slightly low-rise wooden Japanese-style buildings.
However, the streets are not dirt, most of them are neatly laid bluestone tiles, and the alleys and roads are dark green asphalt.
On both sides of the street, there are large fields of weeping cherry blossoms...... Weeping cherry blossoms are a type of cherry blossom that combines the beauty of cherry blossoms with the softness of willow trees, and blooms in April.
Bell, bell, bell.
Under the prompt sound, the fence in front of him fell, Xu Qiansu stopped and stood in front of the fence, and then saw a dark blue train press over the tracks and pass in front of him.
It's May, and it's just the time of the cherry blossoms, when the wind blows, a large number of pink flowers are sprinkled, and the train whizzes past and sets off a strong wind, blowing the cherry blossoms on the ground.
Shanaiduo stood beside Xu Qiansu, her long skirt swaying gently in the wind.
She turned her head to look at Xu Qiansu, then stretched out her little hand and pinched a cherry blossom in Xu Qiansu's hair.
Xu Qiansu tilted his head to look at her.
Shanaiduo opened his small mouth and blew lightly on Xu Qiansu, and the cherry blossom flew around Xu Qiansu's face in a small circle, and finally caught the wind and didn't know where to fly.
Xu Qiansu smiled.
Shanaiduo clasped his hands in front of him, squinted his eyes and smiled.
The train passed in front of Xu Qiansu's eyes, and after about ten seconds, the fence was erected upwards to make way for Xu Qiansu.
He leaned over and picked up the rattan snake standing at his feet and asked, "Does this look like a town in the Xicui region?" β
But the vine snake ignored him, just holding a small cake in his little hand and biting it in small bites, except for being held by Xu Qiansu well-behaved, he couldn't tell that she was Xu Qiansu's PokΓ©mon.
In fact, other people don't talk about hugging her, even if they touch the vine snake, they will jump away from it...... Don't you see Miss Marly, Lilia and the others have never hugged the rattan snake?
The vine snake ignored Xu Qiansu, but Zoroa jumped lightly on Xu Qiansu's shoulder, a little pink cherry blossom mixed with her soft and fluffy fur, she was happy, and said cheerfully, "If only I could wash the green with you again." β
"Huh? Why? β
"I want you to meet my mother." Zoroa hoped.
Xu Qiansu thought for a while, walked forward, stepped on the railroad tracks, turned his head to look at Zoroya, and said with a smile, "Didn't I see it a long time ago?" β
Zoroa was stunned and tilted his head, "When?" β
"Wine shop." Xu Qiansu withdrew his gaze from Zoroya, looked ahead, the large cherry blossoms on the ground, and there was a hint of softness when he stepped on it, and explained, "She is wearing a black robe, and when I took you to buy wine, she kept looking at me...... I wasn't sure, but then we went on a trip together, and she quietly followed us. β
After stepping on the train line and walking forward for about ten meters, a park appeared in front of me.
There are no cherry blossoms on either side of the trail, but hay that can reach the calves, and many cherry blossoms come with the wind and disappear into the green grass.
Zoroa's big pale golden eyes looked at Xu Qiansu who was talking at length in a daze, and when Xu Qiansu finished speaking, she silently withdrew her gaze, and after a while, I saw her lightly jump off Xu Qiansu's shoulders, step on the sprinkled cherry blossoms, and then transform into a little girl wearing a white kimono who looked seventeen or eighteen years old.
This girl has jet-black hair, clear eyes and a cute little face, she holds her hands behind her back, looks at Xu Qiansu, and smiles, "I want you to see this too." β
Xu Qiansu was stunned, and then asked a little uncertainly, "Is it what she will look like when she grows up?" β
Zoroya didn't answer, but pulled up Xu Qiansu's arm, raised his little face, and said innocently, "Hug it~"
"Huh?" Xu Qiansu felt a little strange in his heart, although this was Zoroya, no matter which angle he looked at, it was a maple ...... This, that's weird.
There were occasional pedestrians passing by on the street, and when they saw Xu Qiansu's unmoved appearance, a girl covered her mouth and chuckled, and whispered 'idiot'
But at this moment, Zoroa was obviously in Yuanzhu City, which was similar to the Xicui region, and he was touched by the scene, and he had something inexplicable in his heart that he wanted to vent.
It's something she's been building up in her heart for a thousand years.
So they hugged each other.
They sat on the hay in the grass by the park road, hugged each other, and then lay down on their sides, their bodies completely hidden in the grass, and they could see nothing but the sky and white clouds.
The six tails looked at Zoroya enviously, not envious that she could hug Xu Qiansu.
She just felt ...... Zoroya's ability to transform into someone else's face anytime and anywhere is wonderful.
It's better than she can only rely on memories.
The sky is clear, and the weather is early summer.
It's a weekday and there aren't many pedestrians on the street.
The headquarters of Interpol was not close to Gadelia's villa, so Xu Qiansu walked towards the tram stop.
He wore a slim-fitting white shirt with the hem tucked inside his black trousers, the cuffs rolled up to reveal his fair and powerful forearms, the unbuttoned neckline, and a slight amount of collarbone exposed.
Occasionally, passers-by, they don't look at the cherry blossoms, they don't look at their phones...... They looked at Shanaiduo and Zoroa curiously, after all, one was a different color, and the other was a PokΓ©mon in the Xicui region, but after seeing Xu Qiansu's face clearly, there was a young girl and a young woman looking at him sideways.
However, because this is the Johto area, no one knows Xu Qiansu at all, if it is in Galar, maybe someone will be surprised to shout something like 'Shanaiduo's trainer' and 'Susu', but at the moment there are only some 'so handsome', 'Oh, you go and help me get a contact information', 'can you take a group photo' and so on.
Several Eevee and Eevee Evolvers ran through the streets in slim-fitting sweaters, while a group of trainers in tracksuits ran behind them...... It's like a marathon related to Ibrahimovic, or just training.
Due to the scarcity of pedestrians, the sound in the two shops on the street is spreading more realistically than before.
Sitting on the train, he was opposite a rookie trainer about ten years old with a backpack looking at his phone in distress...... Looking at the video of the competition of the Yuanzhu City Gym Challenge, it seems that he came to the Yuanzhu City to challenge the Gym.
In her arms, Ju Cao Ye was obediently held by her, and when she noticed Xu Qiansu's gaze, Ju Cao Ye looked back curiously.
Xu Qiansu smiled at the chrysanthemum leaves.
Chrysanthemum chuckled happily.
The tram drove through a residential area, and through the window, I saw rows of green plants planted outside the houses waving in the wind, and there were many cucumbers, tomatoes and other vegetables lined up on the balconies.
A pickpocket cat lowered its body, then jumped onto the balcony, picked up a cucumber and jumped lightly around the corner of the eaves.
After arriving at the station, Xu Qiansu got off the tram, took out his mobile phone, and walked along a wide road according to the navigation.
After a while, a tall ancient building came into view, and a wooden pillar stood in front of the door, on which was written 'Zhongzhiliao' with a calligraphy...... Zhong Zhiliao is the headquarters of Interpol.
Originally, it wasn't called by this name, but because a hundred years ago, the Tower of Bells, which represents the friendship between Yuanzhu City and PokΓ©mon, was burned down, resulting in a series of events that made King Feng disappointed in humans and left in anger...... After that, the headquarters of Interpol changed its name to 'Zhongzhiliao' in order to warn future generations.
Although the scale of Zhongzhiliao is large, it still seems a little deserted compared to the location of the Taoist Hall...... After all, it's the door of the police, who would be idle to hang around in front of the policeman's house?
The guard in front of the door was dressed in a black uniform and was accompanied by two large wind speed dogs.
The guard noticed Xu Qiansu, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he looked a little wary.
Xu Qiansu stepped forward, took out his documents, and said concisely, "Second-level criminal police, come here to do business." β
The guards were slightly stunned, a little incredulous, they looked Xu Qiansu up and down, and even forgot to check the documents...... The second-level criminal policeman, the position is not low, and Xu Qiansu looks so young and very fresh, not like the son of a powerful man with a background...... It's not going to be a smashing scene, is it?
As guards, the two have seen everyone for so long, and naturally there are some people with ulterior motives who come to Zhongzhiliao to find fault with the stunned Qingtou who doesn't know the height of the sky.
Xu Qiansu saw the expressions of the two guards, and couldn't help but be curious...... Is it possible that I am finally going to stage a pretending to slap my face and appear in front of people?
Although it's a little shameful to be the second second, it seems good to come here once in a while.
At this moment, as if a gust of wind was blowing, it was a Latias who suddenly appeared next to Xu Qiansu, Miss Joy jumped off Latias's back, stepped on the ground, and waved her hand slightly, "Don't check, he is the person I brought." β
"Prosecutor Joey!" The two guards immediately raised their hands and saluted Joey...... It seems that Joey has a good position within Interpol.
Trainers with legendary PokΓ©mon will be treated with great courtesy, no matter where they are.
Joey was dressed in black clothes and black trousers, and with high heels under her feet, she looked like a beautiful inquisitor.
Xu Qiansu silently took back the documents he took out, turned his head to look at her, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "So coincidentally?" β
"What a coincidence...... Didn't you tell Shiori to come to the headquarters at nine o'clock? I flew here from the hot spring inn. Joey rolled his eyes, waved slightly to the two guards, and then took Xu Qiansu's wrist and led him to Zhong Zhiliao, "What is the matter?" β
On the Bowl Mountain around Yuanzhu City, there is a famous hot spring...... It seems that Miss Joy had been on vacation there before, and Shiori told him the news of Xu Qiansu, so she hurried over.
The two guards stared at Miss Joy's small hand holding Xu Qiansu's wrist with a skeptical expression...... When did that Prosecutor Joy start to get close to men?
Who the hell is that man?
Xu Qiansu was pulled forward by Miss Joy, and before he could speak, he saw Latias fly up to his face, squint his big golden eyes, rub his side of his face with his forehead, and screamed softly.
Miss Joy looked up, "Yo, there aren't many humans that Latias likes...... You're quite a PokΓ©mon lik. β
"If you are honest with each other, there will be no problem." Xu Qiansu replied.
"When are you going to be honest with our family Dale?" Joey laughed teasing and said very boldly, "It's not that I said, Dale's figure is the best, the shape of her breasts is perfect, and the feel is not to mention...... She alone can hold at least three Marlies and four Lilia. β
Xu Qiansu was stunned by Miss Joy's words and couldn't spit out a word, and finally could only say, "I told Miss Dale." β
"Hmph, that's boring." Joey turned his little face again, not looking at Xu Qiansu.
Walking up to the hall in front of Zhong Zhiliao, people in uniform saluted Joey, and then cast curious, stunned, or hostile eyes at Xu Qiansu......
Needless to say, the reason for the hostility is, after all, Miss Joy is also a very attractive woman.
Joey didn't say anything all the way, his steps were hurried, and he directly led Xu Qiansu to the elevator, all the way to the top floor, came to a room, and pushed the door in.
The room is not overly decorated, a desk, chairs, chandelier...... Next to the desk there is also a stand that resembles a cat climbing frame, on which a sculpture stands, combing its feathers.
An old man in a suit, but over half a hundred years old, was lying on his side on a seat, his legs hanging on the desk.
Hearing the sound, he heard it, revealing a pair of deep and peaceful eyes.
"Joey...... Don't you know how to knock on the door? He touched his beard with one hand and lectured directly.
The voice is slightly hoarse, but full of energy.
"Let's get your legs down from your desk first." Joey walked into the room with Xu Qiansu, stepped on the wooden floor, and stood half a meter away from the desk, but his mouth was unpolite.
"Cut." The old man smacked his lips impatiently, then lowered his legs and held on to the seat, facing Joey and Xu Qiansu.
Xu Qiansu was slightly stunned, he couldn't see it when he was lying on his side, but now he looked at the front...... This old man is very strong, and there is a scar on the side of his face.
His name is Roussel, one of the nine directors of Interpol...... It's also Shiori's grandfather. Joey looked at Xu Qiansu and explained without any scruples.
Director...... It can be understood as the five old stars in One Piece, that is, the actual ruler of Interpol.
Since he is Shiori's grandfather, Xu Qiansu is Shiori's direct subordinate...... Indeed, he should have come to see him.
"So, you are Xu Qiansu who captured the remnants of the Galaxy Team and the big needle bee alive and regained the mask......" Russell glanced at Xu Qiansu, and then exclaimed, "Not bad, not bad, young and promising." β
Xu Qiansu shook his head lightly and didn't say much, "Where the responsibility lies." β
This seems to be incomprehensible, no matter what, in the face of such characters, Xu Qiansu should also be more respectful.
But from beginning to end, the elders who made Xu Qiansu respect were always only Mrs. Mo Fei.
As for Russell...... It is true that his status is extremely high, but Xu Qiansu does not feel that he needs to be too flattering.
He joined Interpol only because he had no money at that time and was so poor that he died...... Now that he is not bothered by this problem, the reason why he is still in Interpol is because of a sense of justice, and secondly, it is the main reason...... Shiori helped him find news of Scarlet, then he should also repay the favor and repay the favor in such a place.
Russell didn't care about Xu Qiansu's coldness, he stood up, stretched out his hand to caress the feathers of the eagle, and said, "Shiori mentioned you to me, and you have a high evaluation...... She has never been afraid of heaven and earth, and I didn't think she would have a positive opinion of any man...... How is it? Do you want to get involved? β
Money?
Who's going to be rich?
Shiori?
The corners of Xu Qiansu's eyes twitched, did this Interpol boss think of where to go?
Is it Karp's type of person?
He shook his head, "Forgive me for refusing, I already have a girlfriend." β
"Got a girlfriend? Prettier than Shiori? Is the family better than Shiori? Russell waved his hand disappreciatively, "You get Shiori done, let her give me a great-grandson, so that I can enjoy a family fun before I die, so that my position will be yours sooner or later, how about it?" β
"Forgive me for refusing."
"Hey! You guy, I brought Xu Qiansu over to handle the transfer procedures of Qingxu, not for you to recruit a son-in-law! Miss Joy stepped forward directly, pointed at Russel's nose and scolded, "You want your great-grandson to be crazy." β
Xu Qiansu looked at Miss Joy and thought to herself that she was really amazing, and she could actually point at the nose of such a character and scold.
I don't know which is more powerful, Interpol or the Joy family......
Russell put up his hands in surrender, he took out a stack of papers from the drawer and placed them on the desk, "Just sign your name, Shiori will hand you the documents later." β
Xu Qiansu silently took the document, quickly flipped through it, made sure that there was no problem, and then took a pen to sign his name.
After Xu Qiansu signed, Russell sat on the office chair again, picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of hot water, and then said softly, "What do you think of Sakaki's plan?" β
He was asking Xu Qiansu.
Xu Qiansu signed, put the pen horizontally on the document, took a few steps back, and shook his head, "The headquarters of Interpol is here, one in the light and the other in the dark...... I don't have a clue, the most effective way is to lure the snake out of the hole...... Tie up the big needle bee and parade around the street, don't worry about Sakaki not getting angry, as long as he is emotional, it is easy to show flaws. β
"Tie them up and parade them in the streets...... Miss Joy covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes bent into crescents, and she was amused by Xu Qiansu's way of speaking.
"Huh? It's a good idea. Russell also laughed, then took another sip of hot water before slowly shaking his head, "But no, Sakaki, I know it very well, he is very calm, he is not a person who will be controlled by emotions......"
As he spoke, he tapped his index finger lightly on the table, thought for a while, and then shook his head, "That's it, you have made a great contribution, and you have just come to Yuanzhu City after a long journey, it is better to rest more at this moment, after all, our Interpol is very humane, and it is impossible to catch anyone and use it hard...... It's time for you to take a vacation. β
As he spoke, he muttered a little more, and then spread his hands and said, "But I can't let you be idle...... Shiori is down there, you go to her, how can you say that she is your direct boss, I don't have the right to transfer you...... Something, she'll tell you. β
As soon as the words fell, he waved his hand and motioned for Joey and Xu Qiansu to leave.
After Xu Qiansu and Joey left the room and got on the elevator, Miss Joy asked, "How do you feel about him?" β
"Quite easygoing." Saying that, Xu Qiansu shook his head lightly, "Whether it's easy-going or the city government, it has nothing to do with me, I just came over to get a piece of land, and then find a way to fish Scarit out in this operation, and then went away." β
"It's casual." Miss Joy laughed again, and then she said, "Shiori is a very attractive woman, but don't forget, there are several other women waiting for you before her. β
Xu Qiansu rubbed his eyebrows before he said, "If I were the kind of frivolous person, let alone Shiori, it would be you, and I would also pack up and marry home with Miss Dale." β
"Yo, dare to say it~" Miss Joy smiled disappreciatively, and then directly pinched Xu Qiansu's face and pulled it hard, "But you dare to think of our sisters?" Don't talk about Gardelia, even me, I can make you suffer. β
She was deliberately imitating Xu Qian's words.
Bite.
The elevator door opened wide, and a young lady OL holding a document looked at the two with a shocked face.
Joey silently withdrew his little hand and lowered his eyes into silence.
An inexplicable atmosphere lingers inside.
Xu Qiansu opened his mouth and asked, "Excuse me, what floor are you going to?" β
Miss OL shook her head in horror, and then retreated again and again, and actually ran away directly, looking like she was afraid of being killed.
Bite.
When no one comes up, the elevator doors close automatically.
Miss Joy looked up at Xu Qiansu again, "It's all your fault, Kouhuahua, I'll go to Ma Li to complain later." β
Xu Qiansu rolled his eyes and ignored Joey.
Arriving at the floor and leaving the elevator, Joey took Xu Qiansu to a room again.
It's more like a lounge than an office.
There is a refrigerator, sofa, TV, game console, greenery...... On the other side of the room, a firestorm beast was pounding iron, its muscles bulging like rocks.
And Shiori ...... She was lying on the couch, holding NS playing the recently released "Zelda: Tears of the Empire", wearing a white sweatshirt and denim shorts, revealing a pair of fair legs...... It's as if Interpol's headquarters are her home.
However, her grandfather is one of the nine councilors, so it seems that there is nothing wrong with it...... Why are these women around Xu Qiansu more outrageous than the other?
"Huh?" Hearing the sound of the door opening lightly, she raised her eyes, and then her eyes lit up, "You still dress up well...... I guess, the shirt that Marley picked out for you? β
Xu Qiansu didn't answer, but walked up to her and sat down, and asked, "Tell me about Scarlet's matter in detail?" β
"Hey!" Shiori pointed at herself in disbelief, "First, I'm your top boss, and second, I'm such a beautiful person, and my legs are white and long, just in front of you, but the first thing you say when you come up is to ask about other women?" β
Xu Qiansu felt that Shiori's personality may have been partially inherited from Russell...... was full of gibberish, looking at her expression, she clearly wanted to have fun with Xu Qiansu.
Seeing that Xu Qiansu was unmoved, Shiori snorted dissatisfiedly, "It's really boring......
As she spoke, she straightened up, and the fullness in front of her trembled, and she sat up cross-legged, and then smiled, "I know as much as you know." β
Xu Qiansu sighed lightly, "Then what do you think?" β
Shiori snapped her fingers, but suddenly said, "How about opening a cafΓ©?" β
