Chapter 340: Sakaki: Promotion and Raise for Aodu!
Chapter 340: Sakaki: Promotion and Raise for Aodu!
At Sharon's home.
"Where's Daye?" Jinghe, sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but ask upon seeing Sharon returning with Wusong and A Liu following behind her.
Sharon smiled gently but didn't speak.
Wusong turned his head, pretending not to have heard.
A Liu replied, "Daye is climbing a tree again."
Climbing a tree?
Jinghe's expression turned peculiar.
He must have been beaten by Sharon and sent up a tree again, and from A Liu's words, it was clear this wasn't Daye's first time.
According to Daye himself, he had challenged Sharon 108 times and lost, so he must have climbed the tree at least a hundred times, right?
Even if Daye's Pokemon was a monkey, he could become the world's best tree climber in the Pokemon world.
Jinghe thought to himself, 'If you don't die, I won't either, Daye.'
He nodded and said, "Climbing trees is good for physical exercise, improves coordination and flexibility, promotes physical and mental health, and enhances battling abilities."
Wusong looked at Jinghe with deep respect, having heard his words without hesitation.
A Liu, on the other hand, seemed to realize something.
"So, there are these benefits too."
Sharon smiled and said, "Don't just stand there, take a seat."
Whoosh—
Wusong and A Liu quickly sat down.
Jinghe: "???"
Seeing their fearful expressions towards Sharon, Jinghe felt that they seemed a little different from his perception of Sharon.
After a while, Daye, still with some leaves on his body, finally returned.
He didn't appear discouraged at all; instead, upon seeing Jinghe, he immediately sat next to him.
"Teacher Jinghe, you're indeed amazing," Daye said.
"Are you okay?" Jinghe asked, opening his mouth.
But Daye, as if he hadn't heard, asked with bright eyes, "When can we have another match?"
Jinghe: "."
He finally seemed to understand why Daye could challenge Sharon more than a hundred times and get hung on a tree each time.
Isn't this the Pokemon world's version of Akai?
Not wanting to engage Daye further, Jinghe feared that if he responded, Daye would immediately climb up the pole.
Leaving the task of dealing with Daye to Sharon, who seemed more relaxed with it.
"Cough, Wusong, you three..." Jinghe changed the topic and looked at Wusong.
"Oh." Wusong pushed up his sunglasses in response and said, "The young miss asked me to help gather some information. As for the other two..."
He twitched his lips.
"...they're just here because they're free."
Jinghe understood.
Wusong was probably called because of the discovery of those stone tablets, right?
At this moment, Sharon, who had just returned to the study, came out carrying a pile of documents.
"Hngga~~"
Genggui, hidden in Jinghe's shadow, quickly emerged and floated to Sharon's side, taking the documents from her without a word.
Such heavy things, let me handle it~~
Sharon was momentarily stunned, then smiled.
"Genggui is so obedient."
"Hngga~~()"
Genggui, having put down the documents, scratched his head and waved.
Then, he ran behind Sharon, who had just sat down, and started massaging her shoulders.
"Hngga?"
How was the strength?
"It feels great," Sharon said, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Genggui chuckled.
"Bite Shark said you wanted to see the documents in my study. You can go and look at them yourself, just don't mess them up." Sharon added.
"Hngga!!"
Genggui put in even more effort.
In the study, he had seen many secret manuals.
Wusong, Daye, and A Liu exchanged glances, then looked at Jinghe.
Jinghe covered his face and turned away.
Don't look at me.
I'm not as capable as Genggui.
Soon, they got down to business.
"Wusong, let's organize the information."
"Okay." Wusong nodded.
Basically, the entire process was Sharon and Wusong comparing information, translating documents, with Jinghe occasionally chiming in.
He mainly contributed to the translation of the overall direction.
Jinghe wasn't very familiar with ancient texts and documents.
However, he had a clear understanding of the development and direction of the Pokemon world's history.
For example, according to legend, Arceus created the world, but did he create it out of nothing? No, he based it on the World Tree at the beginning of the world.
Another example: during a tectonic plate movement, when half of the continent was about to be destroyed, a legendary giant suddenly appeared and forcefully moved the land, separating the continents and forming the four major regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.
The Crown Mountain Range was also formed during this continental movement due to the compression.
As for the specific details, Jinghe could only listen quietly.
However, his involvement made the entire process of organizing the information much smoother.
It even led to Sharon and Wusong instinctively looking at Jinghe when they encountered ambiguous questions. Only after seeing that he didn't object would they continue with the translation.
This made Jinghe feel like a teacher overseeing his students' translations.
Daye, on the other hand, had it easier.
He was almost asleep, lying on the sofa.
He had never been particularly interested in written work.
A Liu's Words
He was playing with a palm-sized Caterpie, stroking its spikes.
Kanto, near the Orange Islands, on a small island.
A Rocket Grunt, dressed in the uniform of a Rocket Executive, was on a video call, reporting the situation.
Not far behind him stood a young man in a regular Rocket Grunt uniform, looking a little dazed.
Just moments ago.
The Rocket Team had completed an important mission.
They had captured a wanted criminal known as "The Collector" by the League, Giluta.
He had thought it was just a regular black market deal.
But then.
After capturing Giluta and seizing his Sky Fortress, the Rocket Team released all the wild Pokemon held captive inside!
Even more surprisingly.
The Rocket Team deliberately provided food for these Pokemon, allowing them to escape and return safely to their natural habitats.
This left the young man feeling a bit dazed.
Was this the Rocket Team he knew?
Wasn't the Rocket Team supposed to stop at nothing to capture Pokemon? Among the released Pokemon were some rare and uncommon species.
And this young man was none other than the undercover Dragon Tamer, A Du.
During his time infiltrating the Rocket Team, he had felt like he might have joined a fake Rocket Team.
Here, they didn't work overtime unless it was a special situation, and they had regular holidays. Their salaries were paid on a very fixed schedule, and occasionally, there were even small benefits.
On top of that.
During major holidays, they received employee bonuses and gifts!
To be honest.
If he were an ordinary Trainer, he would have wanted to join the Rocket Team.
Kanto's Rocket Team base in Celadon City.
Sakaki's office.
"Boss."
A large screen displayed the image of a Meowth.
Sakaki's hand rested on Meowth's body, gently stroking it.
"Meow~"
Meowth lazily rolled over, exposing its soft belly.
"It's taken care of," Meowth nodded, "From Giluta, we learned about many large and small hunting groups' hideouts, some of which are not even in the Kanto or Celadon regions."
Sakaki nodded slightly.
After a brief pause, he said,
"Take care of those in Kanto and Celadon, and inform the League about the ones outside these two regions. It's time they did some work too."
"Understood!"
Meowth responded, then opened her mouth.
"Anything else?"
"Yes," Meowth pursed her lips, "We also learned that besides Giluta, there's an even bigger 'Collector' who has closer ties with some large hunting groups."
"Hmm?"
Sakaki narrowed his eyes.
A larger hunting group?
Speaking of which.
After eliminating "The Collector" Giluta, the Rocket Team reaped substantial rewards, including various resources and funds, but the most significant gain was the large Sky Fortress, which was invaluable.
And an even bigger Pokemon collector than Giluta.
"Where is he?"
"Giluta isn't sure, but based on some information, he guessed that he might be in the Alola region!" Meowth said.
"Alola, huh."
Sakaki remained noncommittal.
"Boss, should we inform Teacher Jinghe about this? He seems to... strongly oppose Pokemon hunters and poachers," Meowth asked.
According to the Rocket Team's intelligence, Jinghe's Ice Nine-Tails and his coffee shop staff had all fallen victim to poachers.
"Tell him."
"Yes!"
Meowth responded firmly, her eyes flashing with a dangerous gleam.
Going against Teacher Jinghe is like going against the Rocket Team!
"Oh, right, Boss, about that undercover agent..."
Meowth remembered something and said, "He played a significant role in this operation. We should..."
Sakaki smiled slightly upon hearing this.
"Is his name A Du?"
A Du's undercover mission had been quite successful.
His identity and background checks were flawless, with not a single issue found.
The problem was... A Du's personality made it challenging to maintain his cover for an extended period.
"He's talented. Promote him and give him a raise," Sakaki declared with a grand gesture.
Promoting and giving a raise to an undercover agent was probably a unique case in the entire Pokemon world.
If the opportunity arose, Sakaki would genuinely consider having a battle with A Du.
There weren't many people who could pique his interest anymore.
Jinghe was one, and A Du was almost there.
"Okay!"
"Hmm," Sakaki lightly tapped the table with his fingers, producing a slow "knock-knock-knock" sound.
"How are those three doing?"
Meowth was taken aback but quickly understood and laughed, "They're busy filming, and aside from some usual bickering, they're doing fine."
After a brief pause, she continued,
"The film crew is preparing to shoot in Sinnoh, and they're all getting ready."
After the report, the call ended.
Meowth still had to prepare Teacher Jinghe's year-end bonus and welfare package, but she hadn't decided on the welfare benefits yet.
"Teacher Jinghe probably likes Pokemon, right?"
