Chapter 17: The Economic Crisis (Subscription Requested!) Ask for a commuter pass! )

Xu Qiansu and Xiaoyou left the house, but Xiaoyou was in trouble again, and looked up at Xu Qiansu with a small face, "Nie Zi...... Where is it? ”

"Wouldn't you just find a shouting team to ask?" Xu Qiansu glanced around, the surroundings were deserted, there was no one in sight, Miss Ma Li's home was simply a safe house, and there was no such experience as the shouting team active in the vicinity.

The two had to pick a random direction, walked about a hundred meters away, and turned a street corner, only to see a group of shouting teams gathered together in a vacant place.

It's like writing the names of bad boys and the underworld on the door of your head.

Apparently they were just fans of Miss Mary.

"Forehead......" Xiao You showed a little disgust, and was unwilling to contact these shouting teams in his heart, so he moved a few steps back and stood behind Xu Qiansu.

The group of shouting team also noticed Xu Qiansu and Xiaoyou, and was slightly stunned, and then strode forward, surrounding Xu Qiansu and Xiaoyou as if they were about to fight.

The first female punk with a red mohican hairstyle, a tall posture, and a conservative one-meter-eight punk raised her chin high, so that she could look at Xu Qiansu defiantly with a downward gaze, tilted her head, and laughed evilly, "Why did Little Lada sneak into Nail Town?" ”

"Don't you know that before the Champions Cup final, outsiders are not allowed to enter here?"

"I know this woman, I've already got six badges, and she's the focus of attention...... So she's here to challenge Big Brother Nie Zi, right? ”

"So the enemy?"

"Sneaking into Nail Town, we haven't received any news, enemies, of course!"

They shouted to themselves, their expressions were vicious, their words were extremely aggressive, and they looked like they were finding fault.

Xiaoyou didn't bother to talk to them, she took out a Poke Ball from her satchel, thinking that it would be more efficient to ask them after knocking them down.

Xu Qiansu stroked his forehead, feeling a little ashamed in his heart...... How did these shouting teams shout out these middle two words?

But someone recognized him.

The female punk at the head squinted her eyes, carefully looked at Xu Qiansu's handsome face, and was suddenly startled, and retreated again and again, "Xu, Xu Qiansu!?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the vigorous shouting team suddenly froze and looked stunned.

Xu Qiansu raised his eyebrows slightly, these shouting teams also know him?

"What to do? Brother Nie Zi said that he couldn't find fault with him? ”

"Speaking of which, why is he here?"

"I don't want to!"

Xu Qiansu rubbed his eyebrows, "Where is Nie Zi?" ”

"You, what do you want to do?" The one-meter-eight female punk asked warily.

Xu Qiansu thought that if there was no violence, they probably wouldn't tell Nie Zi's location, so he said, "Come and kick the hall...... The famous shouting team will not be afraid, right? ”

"Kick the ......" shouted team and looked at each other.

Over the years, they have stopped thousands of contestants, beaten and been beaten by others, but they have never heard of anyone kicking the gym......

For a moment, they couldn't react, so they asked in a daze, "Kick the hall...... Do what? ”

"Of course, when you're the boss of the shouting team." Xu Qiansu replied.

"Huh?" Xiao You looked back at Xu Qiansu suddenly, with a blank expression, what is this doing?

The shouting team was stunned, they looked at each other again, and it took a long time to react to Xu Qiansu's meaning, and then there was a burst of annoyance.

What are they? A fan of Marly.

The reason why he stopped the other contestants was to make it easier for Marley and not to have too much pressure...... The essence is for the sake of Mary.

Although this idea was wishful thinking, and Marie didn't want them to do it at all, it was their fundamental purpose.

Now out of nowhere, a man said he wanted to be their boss...... Isn't this an insult to the purpose of their actions!?

"We're not the brainless kind of organization that only destroys! It's not the turn of outsiders to take over! The female punk at the head seemed to be stimulated, shouted, and then directly took out the Poke Ball and pointed at Xu Qiansu, "Kick the hall!?" All right! There are 100,000 people in our shouting team, and you can fight them one by one! ”

……

The excited shouting team was lying on the ground on all sides at the moment, motionless.

The dream demon floated beside Xu Qiansu, rubbing Xu Qiansu's side face with his little face, looking like he was inviting merit.

She alone was enough to clean up the screaming team.

With Xu Qiansu's current strength, not counting Mewtwo, at least he has to be at the level of the Dao Hall Master to be qualified to compete with him.

These shouting teams...... Ordinary residents who usually live in Nail Town, how can they be so powerful.

Xu Qiansu squatted down in front of the female punk, "Since you said that you want to kick the gym, then you have to tell me where your strongest person is, or who the captain is." ”

The female punk lifted her face with a look of humiliation.

"You've got someone to talk to, right? After all, according to what you said, there are 100,000 people in your shouting team......" Xu Qiansu paused, "To organize a team of 100,000 people and work towards a common goal, there should always be a principal...... Who is he? ”

"Could it be Nie Zi?" Xiaoyou guessed.

"Nie Zi?" Xu Qiansu pondered for a moment, then shook his head, looked at the female punk, and waited for her answer.

"I'm not going to betray the boss." She said angrily.

"Are you scared?"

"When I'm stupid? Who will fall for your agitation? ”

Xu Qiansu clasped his hands together and said earnestly: "Please." ”

The female punk stared at Xu Qiansu's face that could attract all women in the world by doing nothing, and her lips pursed for a while before she withdrew her gaze and replied in a low voice, "...... You, you go find her in the open space next to the windward mall...... Boss Nie Zi is also there......"

"Huh? It's so easy!? Xiaoyou looked stunned.

"Thank you." Xu Qiansu stood up and rushed towards the windward shopping mall with Xiaoyou.

The female punk's companion looked at her in disbelief, "How could you tell him such a thing!?" ”

"On the contrary, he is Xu Qiansu anyway, and Ma Li also loves him very much......"

The crowd was speechless.

I thought to myself, Xu Qiansu's name, they are familiar with it......

……

Windward shopping mall, there is nothing to say, ordinary.

But next to it, there is a very large open space.

The clearing was fenced with iron nets, and all kinds of strange graffiti were painted on them, and many dark crows stood above the iron net, surveying the people coming and going with their cold eyes.

Through the iron fence, it can be seen that there is a battlefield inside...... However, compared to Caolu Town, the arena in Shuizhou Town, which is thousands of kilometers away, is very small here...... After all, it can't be extremely huge, and there is no need to build a vast battlefield.

A young British-style man with a long body and a figure of more than 1.85 meters touched the back of his neck with one hand and put the other hand in his pocket, and was standing in front of the iron net with a useless face.

In front of him, Maria crossed her arms and stared sideways at him.

With the two of them as the starting point, there was not a single figure within fifty meters in diameter, and the shouting team that was not afraid of the sky and the earth was hiding in the corner and shivering, obviously afraid of Maria.

This young man is naturally Nie Zi.

He wears a white T-shirt on the inside and a tattered half-denim jacket on the outside, and his bare skin is pale and bloodless because he has not seen sunlight for many years.

His hair was long enough to reach his waist, but he was tied up at the back of his head to look extremely fluffy, and his forehead had thick bangs that almost obscured one eye, and the highlights were half black and half white.

And his dark circles are very strong, so he looks a little empty, but his temperament is lazy and mature, although his dress and hairstyle are not mainstream, but he is also an out-and-out British handsome guy.

"You listened to me?" Maria's apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Nie Zi coldly with an expression very similar to Miss Ma Li.

"Okay, good ......" Nie Zi's voice was like his appearance, extremely lazy, and extremely perfunctory.

Maria glanced at Nie Zi before she stretched out her hand and pointed at the shouting team hiding in the distance, "The economic decline of Jianding Town is the trend of the times, after all, the extreme magnitude of this area is everything, as the master of the Dao Pavilion, you can do your best to obey the destiny of heaven...... But that doesn't mean you can allow them to go outside and lose Spike's face. ”

Nie Zi stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his neck, looking sideways at the dark crow on the iron net, looking like a hanger who didn't listen carefully.

After a while, he said slowly: "Screaming team...... It's not that I have the final say, and if we want to disband, we need to see whether they agree or not. ”

"If you dare to sell Guan Zi in front of your mother, I will shave your head." Maria said quietly.

The corners of Nie Zi's eyes twitched slightly, and then he helplessly explained in a lazy tone: "Their external purpose is to help Ma Li, but in essence, the reason is still economic...... If the economy of Spike Town recovers, then the pressure on Marley will not be so great, and they will naturally not take it upon themselves to stop the other contestants. ”

Maria has been doing business in Gongmen City, the capital of the Galel region, all year round, and rarely comes back, so she doesn't know as much about Sharp Nail Town as Nie Zi.

It's true that Spike Town is the hometown of Maria, Nie Zi and Marlie, but more than ten years ago, when Loz had not developed Pokémon battles into a national project, it was still a bustling place and a famous music capital in Garrell.

Then...... Dr. Mulan researched the Extremely Giant Wristband, which allowed Pokémon to master the Extremely Giant, so Pokémon battles became the mainstream, and Spike Town gradually declined.

At that time, there was actually no evil Daoist master in Sharp Nail Town...... And with the strength of Nie Zi's Four Heavenly Kings, he can mix well wherever he goes, but he can't rest assured that this hometown is declining, so he asked Luo Zi to promise him a series of conditions and set up a seventh gym here...... This is also the origin of the Nail Town Gym is the only gym that does not have extremely huge energy.

But in fact, the small life of the residents of Sharp Nail Town is quite nourishing, after all, there is Maria, a super-rich woman.

Her own children want to revitalize their hometown, and Maria says that she will study her children's abilities and let them achieve their dreams independently, but after all, she is her own children, so she will provide some help every year.

For example, there is no shortage of grants, investment promotion, and so on.

Although it didn't completely save the economy of Nail Town, it didn't make it so depressed.

Of course, that's all Maria did.

She herself does not have a so-called hometown complex, and the reason why she will provide some help is only for her children.

However, the residents of Spike Town also think of their family's well-being, so when Marley decides to participate in the Champions Cup, they will not hesitate to help.

Saying a thousand, saying 10,000, is still an economic problem.

Maria folded her arms, looked at Nie Zi coldly, and said mercilessly:

"Given so many years of time, you have not been able to save the economy of Spike Town, and it comes down to your incompetence, and the Screaming Team is just a byproduct of your incompetence...... How to solve it, you can figure it out by yourself, but if you dare to let them dress up like this ghost and make trouble everywhere, then I think it's better to give up the position of your hall master to Ma Li as soon as possible. ”

"And this kind of good thing? After Ma Li takes over, I can concentrate on music......" Nie Zi's dark eyes lit up slightly.

Maria's apricot eyes narrowed.

Nie Zi obediently bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

The surrounding shouting team didn't dare to gasp, lest it attract Maria's attention.

At this moment, the shouting team on the periphery suddenly stirred.

Footsteps, shouts, and fights came and went.

"Hey! Enemy attack!? ”

"Huh!? Who is it! Don't die! Dare to find our shouting team!? ”

"It's the first time someone has attacked ......"

"Could it be the thief who assassinated Lady Maria!?"

The Screaming Team instantly became vicious, and their confession in front of Maria did not mean that they could be bullied.

They immediately took out the Poké Ball and rushed to support without stopping.

It doesn't matter who he is, let's beat him up first.

There are hundreds of shouting teams gathered here, can't they deal with a thief?

"Enemy attack ......" Nie Zi had a somewhat trouble-feared expression on his face, and looked towards the riot.

As far as the eye can see, you can only see the shouting teams rushing together, and you can't see the so-called thieves at all.

Maria Dai raised her eyebrows slightly, hugged her chest, and looked coldly from the sidelines, looking out of the way.

But in fact, they didn't wait long, and in less than a minute, they only heard a muffled bang, and the gathered shouting team was forced out of a passage.

A little surprise appeared between Nie Zi's eyebrows...... He really didn't know who was coming, but he was also surprised that someone had broken through the encirclement so quickly.

He looked intently, but saw a handsome young man striding towards him, and a dream demon floating beside him......

Isn't this Xu Qiansu?

Nie Zi was slightly stunned, and he looked at Maria.

Maria's mother, who had just been covered with frost, had a slight smile at the moment, and she said, "It's actually a call, obviously just need to call me...... But it's very manly, Xiao Xu...... That's what boys are all about. ”

Hearing this, the surrounding momentum was violent, and the shouting team that was about to surround Xu Qiansu again was immediately stunned, and then invariably brushed back a few steps back, as if avoiding some plague god, staring at Xu Qiansu with a stunned face, and let Xu Qiansu come to Maria and Nie Zi's side.

"Please stop teasing me...... Xu Qiansu sighed and said helplessly.

Maria covered her mouth lightly and laughed a few times, her gourd-like figure looked charming under the black dress.

Xiao You poked out his little head from behind Xu Qiansu and looked directly at Nie Zi, his eyes revealing an indescribable battle intent in his eyes.
