Chapter 222: This Is a Vocation
The world is the world, there is no black and white, and there is no difference between what is on the outside and what is on the outside – Hugo did not see the world in a way that was any different from that of ordinary people.
If I had to say something different, it was that Miss Joy, who was staring at her, had a slightly more vicious expression at this time......
This is understandable, after all, Hugo brought more than fifty scarred patients to the hospital in one go, which made the utilization rate of beds in the Pokémon Center in Fukiyoshi City even worse. With the ambulance convoy arriving, this Miss Joy who was working overtime certainly couldn't have given him much of a good look.
"Miss Nurse Manager, you don't have to be so pessimistic."
In the ambulance's medical room, Hugo could see the professional level of the person in front of him from the style of the other party's nurse's hat. Faced with the angel in white with a bad expression, the detective carefully lays out the facts and tries to comfort the other party.
"These trainers should be transferred to a regular hospital for treatment, and even if a patient is assigned to a Pokémon center for treatment, the number of them will not be too large. It will not affect the normal operation of Pokémon Center. ”
Joey sighed, shook his head with a "it seems you don't understand anything" expression, and responded to the black-clad detective-
"As Joey who has worked in Fukiyose City for more than ten years, I've seen almost all the Pokémon trainers in Fukiyose City, but you're a freshman, no wonder you don't know the inside story. In fact, more than half of the patients you send are well-known trainers in the local battle field, and there are even several elite trainers who have the potential to collect Gym badges. ”
She gestured to the trainers in the car who were lying side by side on stretchers. Although they were defeated by Yogos's land cloud, they were still qualified to challenge Adek's elite trainer after all, and it was only natural that they had a small reputation in Fukiyoshi City.
"Since these trainers themselves have fallen into such a miserable situation, it is naturally impossible for the Pokémon they carry to be spared, but I am afraid that they will have long lost their combat ability. And now there are fifty trainers lying in the ambulance, which means that the elf center must be prepared in advance to receive at least three hundred Pokémon injured at the same time...... Alas, just imagining such a scenario makes people's stomachs cramp. ”
"Then your stomach should hurt in vain." The detective thoughtfully reminded the head nurse, "The elf center won't be crowded with dying elves, at least not today. The trainers didn't have a single Poké Ball on their wounds, as all the Pokémon they were carrying were taken away by the attackers. ”
"Huh?"
"I told the hospital about the details in the emergency call, but your subordinates probably forgot to tell you." Hugo patiently explained.
"As far as I know, the attacker was a cadre from the Plasma Regiment, and it was his subordinate who was responsible for the aftermath. The guys have an unusually obsessive attachment to liberating Pokémon, so after defeating these trainers, they also have to take those Pokémon to the wilderness and release them - or their purpose is to release those elves, and defeating the trainer as the master is just a side mission. ”
"Plasma? Are they going to take the injured and dying Pokémon to be released? Is this to make the elves wait to die in the wild? ”
Nurse Joy raised her eyebrows, and couldn't help but raise her voice, as if she was about to blow up.
"Not really. Judging by past cases, that organization has done a decent job of this. Since he had done a thorough investigation a long time ago, Hugo shook his head and replied matter-of-factly.
"Before the release, those people in the plasma group will use props such as wound medicine to restore the strength of the elves, and there will be no malicious release. The released plots will also be classified according to the attributes and ecology of the Pokémon, and in general, they are open plots with few natural enemies and abundant food and water sources, which can basically ensure the self-sufficiency of the Pokémon. ”
"No, not even that. The injuries of Pokémon are by no means cured by applying a little high-grade wound medicine, otherwise what would we do in the Pokémon Center? ”
Miss Joy calmed down a little, but still shook her head resolutely and retorted.
"Strained muscles need to be conditioned, worn joints need to be maintained, displaced fractures must be treated in time, not to mention the scars caused by other Pokémon moves, and those places need to be treated one by one - what is it like to apply some wound medicine to them and release them into the wild? Where is this liberation elf, this is simply killing life! ”
The other party's statement is actually a bit exaggerated, and this may be an obsession that only medical workers who take the protection of patients as their own responsibility will insist on.
Substituting convenient medicines for medical treatment is not a mistake that only plasma clusters make. After all, Pokémon centers are not available everywhere, and many alliance trainers also treat Pokémon's injuries in this way during their travels.
In fact, although the medicine for injuries is not as good as the treatment in a professional hospital, it is enough for the elves to recover from their injuries during the journey - Pokémon are creatures that have extremely strong recovery abilities, and if it weren't for this, wouldn't it be even more ferocious for those wild elves who were knocked unconscious by trainers in the grass without any human treatment at all?
However, Hugo did not express his rebuttal, because that would appear as if he was excusing the atrocities of the plasma cluster, which would be unjustified if he had been misunderstood.
"Anyway, I've informed the police station here of the situation. A lot of photos of the trainer lying at the scene were sent, and even the dullest police officers should start to pay attention to this incident. If the few subordinates of the plasma group who are in charge of the aftermath are only small characters, I believe that those Pokémon will be recovered in a few days. ”
"Really......" Joey breathed a sigh of relief before he looked at the detective in disbelief.
"Then again, why did those trainers gather under the Tower of Heaven at the same time? So many great trainers have been knocked down, how did you escape? ”
"It seems that the United Alliance is going to hold some kind of event on the Tower of Heaven, and the plasma group came out to make trouble after hearing about it, and easily stunned the trainers gathered nearby." Hugo explained half-truthfully.
"I arrived at the scene after the attack and therefore escaped the attack. Due to my profession, I deduced the general story of the incident from the traces of the scene, and when I waited for the ambulance, I chatted for a while with some strange guy who had messed in. ”
"It's the green-haired man, isn't it? I saw that he seemed to ask you for something in the end. ”
"It's a professional habit, as long as there is a suitable commission, I will take over." Hugo took out the small box containing the business card from his pocket and opened it slowly.
"What profession?" Joey asked curiously.
"Specialized in solving mysteries and troubles, detective."
With a flick of his fingertips, a piece of cardboard falls out of the box.
Feiyun City Yuqi Mansion, Hugo Detective Agency, the detective's signature leans against the corner of the business card, and the font is serious and beautiful Gothic.
Joey took the business card, looked at it back and forth, and suddenly thought about it: "In that case, then I will also give you a commission." ”
"It's been a great day for business. Tell me, as long as it's within the scope of the detective field, I can basically take on it. Or do you want to know the price list first? ”
"The only I can get paid for is pocket money and free medical skills, but the content of the commission is very simple." The head nurse had a look on her face that thought of a clever plan—
"Please help you recover the Pokémon that were snatched by the plasma cluster."
