Chapter 447: Back on Track?
Chapter 447: Back on Track?
Little Silver!
Sakaki's offspring.
The photo was sent a few days ago, when Jinghe had turned off his communications, so he didn't receive it.
Since Jinghe wasn't sure if this was the person he was looking for, he didn't want to seem too eager, so the International Police only took a photo when they saw someone resembling Little Silver and didn't call directly.
"Can you find out where this photo was taken?"
Jinghe returned the computer to MDolan and asked.
"Just a moment." MDolan whispered, her fingers flying across the keyboard.
In less than three seconds, she had the answer: "Vermilion City, Spirit Center."
Vermilion City?
So, Little Silver is still in the Kanto region.
Even though the photo was taken a few days ago, it's unlikely that Little Silver would have left the Kanto region, right?
For now, they weren't sure if he was still in Vermilion City or if he had moved to another city.
"Can you find him?" Jinghe asked again.
"It might be a bit difficult," MDolan replied, not making any promises.
After all, while the Pokemon world is technologically advanced, the wild environment is indeed quite complex. It's not feasible for the League to install surveillance cameras in remote areas. However, after a brief pause, she added, "Give me a few days. If he's in a town, there should be a way to locate him."
See? That's what a top-notch hacker can do!
"Then I'll trouble you."
MDolan nodded with her head down.
After their brief interaction, MDolan realized that she actually felt quite comfortable with Jinghe.
There was no pressure, and he was polite and easy to talk to, unlike the rigid impression she had of teachers.
Especially Jinghe's Pokemon, they made her feel a sense of familiarity, reminiscent of her own Eevees, which made her feel very comfortable.
"Roar~"
Ice Nine-Tailed's tail curled around a macaroon, offering it to MDolan.
Seeing Ice Nine-Tailed's natural demeanor, MDolan smiled shyly, "Thank you."
She held the macaroon in one hand and continued typing with the other.
"I'll make a call."
"Mhm."
Jinghe stepped out of the office and dialed a number.
"Jinghe?"
On the other end of the line, True Bird's voice could be heard.
"How are things, True Bird?"
"Dakudo and Darkrai? They're really perfect for TV!" True Bird exclaimed.
After the Bellflower Tournament, Jinghe had come up with a way to promote Pokemon trading cards—by making a TV show!
In Jinghe's original world, games like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Cardcaptor Sakura had driven the market for trading cards through anime and manga.
Therefore, the best way to promote Pokemon trading cards was to create a TV series with enough popularity.
With this in mind, Dakudo's Pokemon trading card company collaborated with their Rocket Entertainment company.
As for the script, Jinghe was in charge of writing it, and he simply copied it from his original world.
Dakudo was clearly a card game enthusiast.
They had Yugi and the Pharaoh, and he had Darkrai.
They had Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and he had Three-Headed Dragon.
"That's great," Jinghe nodded.
"But..."
"Hmm?"
"Since it requires a lot of post-production and special effects, each episode might take longer to release." True Bird explained.
Special effects?
Jinghe turned to look at the office.
"Send me an unedited episode, and I'll find someone to help with it."
There it was, another opportunity for MDolan to showcase her skills and gain some experience, or rather, a platform for her to practice, yes!
"Sure."
True Bird naturally couldn't refuse.
"By the way, True Bird, do you know anyone in Kanto?" Jinghe asked.
"Kanto? We're filming in Kanto."
True Bird paused for a moment, then said:
"Yes, why? Is there something you need help with?"
Help?
But True Bird's words gave Jinghe a realization.
If they did find Little Silver in the Kanto region, it would be best not to let Rocket Team contact him for now.
To avoid creating a negative impression of Rocket Team from the start and causing conflicts in their relationship before they even recognized each other.
Rocket Team was already changing, and Little Silver was undoubtedly a part of that transformation.
The changes in Rocket Team were undoubtedly beneficial to the entire Pokemon world, and they shouldn't be altered due to Little Silver's attitude.
"No, it's nothing. I was just asking in case I need help if I go to Kanto in the future."
"Then rest assured!" True Bird didn't doubt him and assured, "The people I know in Kanto are quite influential."
Indeed.
Rocket Team's Four Generals.
The four individuals who, in the special episode, went rogue after Sakaki's retirement and created the Almighty Omega.
Jinghe ended the call.
"Maybe I'll have to go to Kanto myself to resolve this Little Silver situation," Jinghe muttered to himself.
"Never mind, as long as we confirm that Little Silver is safe and not in any danger, there's no need to rush."
"I believe that even though Sakaki wants to find Little Silver right now, he probably knows that it's not the right time for them to meet."
Back in the office, Jinghe asked MDolan if she knew how to create special effects.
MDolan replied that she was proficient with anything computer-related.
And so, Jinghe saved a significant amount of money on special effects.
After some time, MDolan closed her laptop.
"Teacher, I'm off to class."
"Okay."
Coincidentally, Jinghe was also preparing to take the little ones to the training gym.
In the following days, everything seemed to return to normal.
Every day, besides attending school, occasionally teaching a class, and dealing with Pokemon psychology issues online or in person, Jinghe spent time training and playing with the little ones.
On this day, February 14th, Wednesday afternoon, it was time for Jinghe's small class.
Clap—
Jinghe smiled and closed the book, looking at the sea of students before him.
A smile on his face, but a different expression in his heart.
Last semester, his classroom was just a small one, but this semester, he was assigned to the largest lecture hall, packed with students.
Fortunately, the content of his lecture didn't depend on the number of students.
Whether it was twenty or a hundred and fifty students, he would deliver the same lecture.
The only difference was that instead of a few students dozing off, now over a hundred students were fighting sleep.
Only a few, like Da Wu, Du Juan, Sonia, and MDolan, managed to stay awake.
But even they were barely holding on, and no one dared to fall asleep.
Those who had taken Jinghe's class before were slightly better prepared, having brought water, tea, coffee, and other refreshments.
However, those attending his class for the first time were in for a rough time.
By the end of the lecture, more than twenty students had cried out in nightmares, drenched in cold sweat.
But there was one exception—Yasha.
She seamlessly blended in with the other first-time students.
To be honest, Jinghe's class was a real "torture."
Since Pokemon psychology textbooks leaned towards theory, the course material was rather dry.
The students were subjected to hypnosis and nightmares, feeling extremely tired but afraid to sleep.
Torture!
Yet, but the students kept coming, one after another.
Jinghe glanced at the time, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, and leaned against the podium. "Since we have some time left, let's have our usual Q&A session."
Here it comes!
The students below immediately became excited.
A large group of them raised their hands simultaneously.
This was Gramps' favorite part.
"Hengga~(｀)σ"
It pointed to a student on behalf of Jinghe, who asked, "Teacher Jinghe, did you really punch and shatter Timia Luka and Palu Qia?"
"Next."
"Teacher Jinghe, I heard a rumor that you not only shattered the Temporal Dragons but also defeated Regigigas?"
"Next."
"Teacher Jinghe, it's said that you defeated the visiting Galaria Champion, Piony Champion, a few days ago?"
Jinghe: "..."
He sighed, rubbing his forehead, and said, "You guys shouldn't have chosen to study Pokemon psychology."
Facing the students' confused gazes, he spread his hands and said, "You should have studied journalism instead."
"It's a waste not to study journalism when you're so well-informed about rumors."
"Hahaha—"
Laughter filled the classroom, and the atmosphere seemed to relax significantly.
This was why, despite Jinghe's class being boring, none of the students who took it last semester dropped it.
"Ask something more reliable."
"Hengga~" Gramps understood and pointed to Du Juan, who had raised her hand.
"Teacher, how can we determine if we've met the conditions for Mega Evolution with our Pokemon, aside from using Mega Stones and Key Stones?"
her hair, his gaze sweeping across the classroom. Facing their eager eyes, he smiled and said, "I don't know either."
Bang—
Clap—
Many people stumbled and slid off their chairs.
"Bonds. It's a mysterious thing, invisible and intangible, yet it exists. Let me demonstrate."
As he spoke, he looked at Gramps.
"Hengga!"
Gramps smiled, sticking out his tongue, and rolled out a can of drink, handing it to him.
Sss—
Jinghe casually opened it, and a burst of bubbles escaped.
He took a refreshing sip, easing the dryness from teaching.
"That's about it. Those who understand will get it, and those who don't, go back and think it over."
Da Wu nodded slightly, understanding Jinghe's meaning.
A glance.
Even before Jinghe looked at Gramps, Gramps was already preparing, as if they shared a telepathic connection.
Such an understanding, such a bond. Even Daigo admired them sincerely.
The glint in MDolan's eyes beneath her glasses also flickered slightly.
"Burp—"
Jinghe gently burped and smiled, "The advice I can give you is actually quite simple."
"Trust in your Pokemon."
"Just as they were willing to believe in you and follow you from the very beginning."
"Whether it's during battles or in everyday life, trust in your Pokemon, and they will surely respond."
"Over time, the accumulation of this trust will allow those incredible moves like 'Get Up,' 'Endure,' and 'Dodge' to work effectively during battles."
After saying this, he spread his hands in a gesture of helplessness.
"See, I've already shared my ultimate 'secret move' with you."
Laughter filled the room once more.
"Teacher Jinghe, we really want to know, what are your chances against the Champion?"
Chances?
Even Jinghe found this amusing.
Are you underestimating the value of the Champion a little too much?
Ding ding ding—
The bell rang, signaling the end of class.
Jinghe promptly picked up his textbook, took a sip of his drink, and left the classroom without hesitation.
He hated nothing more than teachers who kept students after class.
Punctuality was his top priority.
"Everyone, stand up!"
"Goodbye, Teacher Jinghe!"
All that could be seen was Jinghe's rapidly receding figure, waving goodbye.
Upon returning to the office, he found the little ones gathered around the desk, listening to the radio?
The broadcast was from Mangin City Radio, featuring Professor Oak's Pokemon Lecture.
From the Lotohm radio, Professor Oak's familiar voice resonated.
"That concludes today's Pokemon Lecture. Thank you for listening, and allow me to end with a haiku."
"Forty years, the passage of time, truly a Froakie (incredible)!"
"Everyone, go catch some Pokemon too!"
"Thank you for listening," followed by the sweet voice of the co-host, Hu Tao.
Hu Tao was a well-known radio host in Mangin City, with a significant reputation, and it was rumored that she was good friends with the Mangin City Gym Leader.
A-Jin, who would soon make her debut, was Hu Tao's biggest fan.
"Where did this radio come from?" Jinghe was surprised.
"It's a Lotohm that I found in the pile of junk in the cabinet!" Lotohm emerged, and the radio fell silent again.
Jinghe nodded, not overly concerned.
However, Professor Oak's haiku was quite interesting.
"Forty years..."
"Teacher..."
MDolan, holding a notebook, suddenly appeared at the door.
"Hmm?"
"I... I found that person."
That person...
Little Silver?
Jinghe's hair, his expression filled with surprise.
"Where?"
"I sent it to your phone."
He immediately took out his phone and saw that it was indeed Little Silver's image, captured three minutes ago.
The location was Azure City in the Kanto region!
"Magnemite, Metal Claw!"
Bang!!
In a remote mountain forest, there stood a wooden cabin.
Outside the cabin were numerous cages of various sizes, while inside, an intense collision was taking place.
Finally.
An elderly man, over fifty years old with graying hair and a fake eye in one eye socket, was backed into a corner and stumbled to the ground.
The Magnemite's sharp claws were less than a centimeter away from his throat.
The Magnemite's face was cold and disdainful, as if it looked down upon the old man.
Beside the Magnemite stood a tall and robust man, wearing a red vest and a golden mask, with a faintly visible red "R" on his vest.
"Cough, cough..."
The old man's face was filled with fear, but he managed to speak, "Rocket Team! I... I haven't been a Pokemon hunter for many years!"
Recently.
For some unknown reason, the Kanto and Johto regions' Pokemon hunter gangs had been subjected to Rocket Team's relentless attacks.
The old man had retired and thought he was safe, but he never expected Rocket Team to show up at his doorstep.
Moreover, this man's strength... was extraordinary!
The robust man let out a cold snort, crouched down in front of the old man, and gently patted his cheek, his voice icy, "Do you think that by retiring, you can escape consequences?"
"Then what... what do you want?"
"Simple." The robust man sneered, "Forty years ago, you let a Pokemon escape in a forest. Tell me where that forest is, and that's it."
Forty years ago?
The old man's eyes widened as if he had suddenly remembered something, and his pupils constricted as he looked at the man with heightened fear.
"It seems you've remembered."
Bang!!
At that moment, an explosion sounded from outside the cabin.
"Thief! Thief!"
Amidst the explosion, the voices of Rocket Team members could be heard shouting.
