Chapter 131: The Punk Gym in Lichong City

After the demonstration, the ground beneath their feet still let out a dull moan from time to time.

It was Blastoise using the "Stomping" skill to ram the field. It had previously used "burrowing" to fill in the ravines, and was now stomping east and west, trying to level the loose ground again.

For a powerful elf that can crack the ground with a single "water tail", these aftermath tasks are not too easy.

The girl's command and the Blastoise are extremely skillful. In less than a quarter of an hour, before the winner of the game was determined by Hugo and Geng's big eyes, this man and turtle had completely restored the field to its original state, and it seemed that he had already been a habitual offender of this way.

"This vacant land is located on the outskirts of the city, and the soil structure is relatively loose, so the trick "Water Tail" looks a little scary, and it can't make such a big noise in a professional league playing field."

After finishing the ecological reconstruction project, Blue stretched her waist and put the blastoise back into the red and white Poké Ball, and said to the detective with some unfinished feelings-

"These three children are the main force that I am proud of, and no matter how strong the enemy is, I am confident that I can go up and break my wrists. That is, the time to investigate the case is urgent, otherwise I must spend half a day going to the nearby Pokémon Gym to practice again and get back in shape. ”

"Oh?" The detective's gaze turned away from Geng's grimace, but it became strange, "Do you know what we want to investigate next?" ”

Bilan didn't forget the detective's assistant's job, and replied without hesitation-

"It's one of the police station and the William factory's family, right? You've said before that you're going to confront the factory director at the end, so I'm guessing we're going to go to the police station today, and as long as we prove that the shady curtain doesn't exist before N, we can avoid a conflict between the two sides, right? ”

"Don't let that man's reasoning lead you by the nose." Hugo shook his head and patiently reminded -

"The bombing didn't happen at the police station, and no matter how much we learned there, we couldn't get to the bottom of the incident itself. The cause of this explosion was not in this time, but in the distant past, so I intend to investigate another person. ”

"Who?" Turquoise pricked up her ears.

"Talter once said that he only came to work at the Lichong power plant after it was expanded. This means that before him, there was another person who was in charge of raising the factory elves, and this person was the subject of my investigation this time. He was able to tell us what the Lichong power plant was like, and that when it was built, there were fewer employees, the division of labor was not as specialized as it is now, and there was more communication with each other, and he probably knew some insider secrets. ”

"But who is this man? You haven't mentioned his name yet, so we're not going to have to start from scratch, right? The girl looked distressed and spread her hands towards Hugo.

"Nope." The detective flipped his hand over, and a smartphone with a bright screen appeared in the palm of his hand.

"I asked Mr. Talter for access to the power plant forum, and found out the man's past internal accounts. What we are looking for is this netizen nicknamed 'Cactus in the Sea of Flowers'. The person who took this nickname is probably a woman, she doesn't care much about her information security, and in a post two years ago she announced that she had joined a punk band called "Poison Gas Band", and was about to perform on stage as a rookie guitarist, hoping that her colleagues would cheer her on. ”

"A punk band? Still a guitarist? ”

The assistant's mouth opened slightly, she didn't expect that there would be such a development in the case investigation.

Ignoring his companion's surprise, the detective continued to explain methodically: "This band is quite famous in the United Nation area, and since last year, it has been performing in various parts of the United Mass City outside of Lap Chung City - this may be the reason why the former cultivation consultant left. However, when it comes to popularity, the leader of this orchestra may be a little more widely known. ”

"Who is it?" After all, Bilan has only been in Hezhong for a few months, and she hasn't even recognized all the makeup brands, let alone the roster of local stars?

"Homiga, the leader of the recently created Lichong Gym, is an expert in poison attributes, and also serves as the lead singer of the Poison Gas Orchestra."

The detective shrugged his shoulders and said to the stunned Blue, "Let's have fun, we are just about to visit a Pokémon gym that has just opened." ”

Located on a street corner in the heart of the city, passers-by can see the lightning-like logo of the hall shining purple from a distance.

But when you walk in, you can only see a small black house that is not much bigger than a matchbox.

Hugo didn't hesitate to push the door in, and Bilan followed the detective, seeing that there was only one staircase passage down the small house, and it seemed that the main part of the gym was located in the underground area of the house.

Perhaps because the Lip Chung Gym has just opened, I haven't seen any visitors gathered here until now.

Walking down the stairs, a low sound suddenly came from the girl's ears.

"It seems that the afternoon practice of the Poison Gas Ensemble has begun, and if there are no challengers, they will not stop to cooperate with the visit."

The detective said in a relaxed tone, glanced back at the assistant, and nodded tacitly, she already understood the mission of her trip.

As the soundproof door at the end of the staircase was pulled open by the detective, the loud and chaotic punk rock music instantly drowned out the two.

Booming drums, soaring guitars, heavy basses, coordinated keyboards, and—

In the center of the stage, the lead singer girl with short snow-white hair and singing syllables with a clear voice.

As the detective and his assistant entered the underground concert-like venue, the lights behind the two flickered for a while.

The music changes pitch instantaneously and comes to an abrupt end at the climax.

In the silence, the white-haired girl suddenly approached the microphone and raised her hand to the man on the right: "Drummer Cook!" The best percussionist in Lap Chung City! ”

A bald man named Cook struck his drum sticks twice in the air, followed by a rapid succession of gongs, followed by a short snare drum that evolved into a brilliant improvisation.

"Guitarist, Lu! After less than three years of practice, he has already entered the classroom, and he is the most promising guitarist in the region! ”

The brown-haired woman on the left side of the girl raised the electric guitar a few points, her fingers and picks frantically flipping on the strings. The sound of a dense and granular sweep suddenly sounded in the stereo, which was the show-off skill of the electric guitar.

"And the keyboard! Top student from Raven School of the Arts, Martin! ”

In the corner of the stage, the sound of the piano came from the depths of darkness. Due to the lack of vision, the detective and the assistant were unable to see the keyboardist's appearance, only that he was an emaciated male. But the melodious sound of the electronic piano was enough for this musician.

"The rest is me, the soul of the band, the leader of the gym, the holder of the poison badge, the poison of my life, the poison of the stage! Homiga is here! ”

The white-haired girl plucked the iron string violently, and the instrument in her hand made a low muffled sound.

"Visitor, are you an audience who admires music, or a challenger who doesn't know the height of the sky?"

Bilan consciously stepped forward, but she was a little uncomfortable with such a conversation between the middle two, only to see her scratch her cheeks and respond in normal language: "Uh...... I'm a challenger, and I heard that this gym has just opened, and I want to come and practice my hands. ”

The unimposing words made the atmosphere awkward for a while, and the girl immediately noticed the subtle change in the atmosphere, so she tried to change the subject: "Speaking of which, the band's performance is really good, and the solo display of the members is also very exciting......"

Turquoise's gaze fell on the instrument Homiga held in her hand, and she suddenly became a little curious.

Without seeing the desperately suggestive eyes of the detective next to her, the girl said the next words-

"But why doesn't the guitar in the lead singer's hand ring?"

The quiet room suddenly became strange, and the drummers, guitarists, and keyboardists all bowed their heads and shrugged their shoulders from time to time, as if they were already laughing.

The face of the Poison Pavilion Master suddenly turned red, as if it was about to explode like a gas bomb.

"It's Bass!"
