Chapter 48: Hey, It's Wagtail!
Chapter 48: Hey, It’s Wagtail!
If you look closely, you’ll notice that what Gengsi saw was actually a fearsome Charizard, and on the Charizard’s back, there seemed to be someone lying down.
Hmm?
Jing He, who had poked his head out the window, was slightly startled.
That familiar posture, that barely visible wind-ruffled hair—could it be Adu?
How did Adu find his way here?
No, no, no, maybe he’s here for someone else. After all, old neighborhoods like this one, lacking proper surveillance, are the easiest places to hide criminals.
With this thought, Jing He withdrew his gaze, hummed a little tune, and continued making breakfast.
Half an hour later.
Knock, knock—
Here—
“Bark—”
With a piece of bread in his mouth, Gengsi mumbled a response and quickly approached the door, but instead of immediately opening it, he directly phased through the door, poking out both eyes.
Joking, Jing He said not to open the door to just anyone, what if it’s a bad person?
Then Gengsi saw a man with brown-red short hair, a firm and handsome face, and a black uniform, standing right outside their door, covered by a wind-ruffled scarf. Gengsi’s gaze met with Adu’s gaze.
Adu smiled slightly.
“You must be Jing He’s Pokemon, right? Hello, I’m Adu.”
“Bark!!”
Before Adu could finish his sentence, Gengsi quickly withdrew his head and started shouting from inside.
Guess who I saw?
Hey, it’s Wagtail!
Adu: “??” (Note: Since Adu's reaction is confusion, and the original text had question marks, I left this as is to convey his puzzlement)
Then Adu heard footsteps and scolding.
“Don’t shout!”
Snap.
The door opened.
Adu saw Jing He trembling with "Apricot Fruit," and Gengsi, who was covering his head and floating with black fog, his lips pursed.
“Mr. Adu?”
Jing He looked surprised.
Really looking for him?
Adu was also surprised.
“Does Teacher Jing He know me?”
Gengsi’s reaction earlier made him feel strange, though he couldn’t understand what Gengsi was saying, but Gengsi seemed familiar.
Jing He smiled.
“The famous Kanto young investigator Adu, who doesn’t know you? Please come in.”
He moved aside.
“Sorry for the disturbance.”
“Bark.”
Gengsi resumed his cheerful smile and gave a greeting.
Gengsi: (^_^) (Note: The original emoticon was similar in meaning, so I replaced it with a more commonly used English equivalent)
Then he pulled out a phone from somewhere, quickly scrolled through it, and flipped to A poster of A famous photo, startling Adu.
“Have you eaten breakfast?”
After entering,
Adu’s gaze instinctively swept over the room, taking in the entire layout.
He had to admit that though the house was small and the interior decoration very simple, it was quite cozy, making him feel a sense of comfort.
“Thank you, I’ve eaten.”
“There’s nothing special at home, have some milk.”
Jing He brought out a bottle of fresh "Moo Moo Milk."
“Thank you.”
The two sat down at the dining table.
After a few simple pleasantries, Adu explained his purpose.
“Basically, every time Fossilizard gets into a fierce battle or training, there’s a risk of losing control. Normally, there doesn’t seem to be a big issue, but the Pokemon’s heart is still checked.”
“Hmm.” Jing He rubbed his chin lightly, “Intermittent, overexcited loss of control.”
“By the way, Mr. Adu, how did you know about me? I’m not exactly famous, am I?” Jing He suddenly asked.
“It’s from Champion Source’s recommendation.” Adu replied, “Besides, Teacher Jing He’s reputation from Silver Academy isn’t small.”
So he’s been investigated?
Indeed.
After all, he’s a Kanto investigator, so it’s not hard to find out about someone from the Silver academy.
It’s just that Champion Source is looking for him.
Speaking of Source, Adu thought of finding Source’s name and pulled out a slightly yellowed book from his pocket—The Fear Heart.
"Right. I didn’t really prepare anything for this visit, but I’ve heard that Teacher Jing He is a renowned Gengar trainer, so I brought a small gift, hoping it would be of some help."
"Here it is."
"Kou Jie?"
Gengar’s head perked up, his eyes lighting up as if he had found a new toy, his red tongue already eager to try it out.
"Fear? It’s ripe!"
Jing He picked up the book, casually flipping through two pages, his expression becoming peculiar.
Adu explained:
"For this Gengar’s training, I don’t have much insight, so I sought out Jizitian Wang for this knowledge."
Jizitian Wang!
The regional Ghost-type Champion!
Not long ago, Gengar was constantly watching her videos to learn how to scare people.
Adu didn’t fully understand Jing He or Gengar’s true strength, but he wanted a Champion, a seasoned champion, to cultivate a Ghost-type Pokemon’s heart. I bet this knowledge is very tempting for any Ghost-type Pokemon trainer.
Moreover, Jizi’s signature Pokemon is also a Gengar.
Truly, this knowledge can be of great help for Jing He in cultivating Gengar.
However, the part about the ‘control’ training method for Pokemon, cold sweat couldn’t help but drip down.
This is about cultivating the heart, and wild battle methods!’
"Kou Jie kou jie!"
Gengar stared at Jing He with intense focus.
"It wants it!"
Jing He sighed, rubbing his temple, "This is too precious, don't."
"So, Teacher Jing He, you mustn't let this knowledge spread, or else."
Even Adu couldn’t help but feel a chill, let alone Jing He.
Jing He’s smile froze.
I figure if this spreads today, by tonight, the house will be filled with Ghost-type Pokemon.
"Actually, it’s strange, Jizitian Wang isn’t a very talkative person. When I went to seek this knowledge, I was almost discovered. But when I told her that the person I wanted to send it to was Teacher Jing He, she just hesitated a bit before sending it."
Of course, he also paid a price, but that’s not worth going into detail.
Adu showed his doubt, "Teacher Jing He, you and Jizitian Wang know each other?"
Bigger sweat beads appeared.
"Know each other?"
"Possible!"
But Jing He quickly thought of the key.
That paper praised and reviewed by Professor Oak!
As for the love-hate entanglement between Jizitian Wang and Professor Oak, that’s like a TV drama, let’s not talk about it.
Reading this knowledge, Jing He always felt as if a stern-faced woman with a cane stood right in front of him, asking:
"Boy, do you choose this knowledge, or Oak?"
Jing He hurriedly stuffed the knowledge in Gengar, warning it to hide well, absolutely not to be taken out casually.
"Kou jie kouJie."
Gengar’s head was mashed like garlic.
Laughing like a fool.
"Cough, how could I know Jizitian Wang? We’re still chatting with Fossilw ing long."
"Alright."
Adu didn’t get too entangled in these matters.
"Mm, it’s best to let me take a look."
After all, he just heard from Adu, and couldn’t know the specifics.
"Here?"
"Jing He’s house can’t really accommodate Fossil w ing long, even if it could stay, the situation with Fossil w ing long might cause unnecessary destruction.
Even in this neighborhood, not to mention the city of Kanaz, it’s best not to summon it casually."
Jing He pressed his lips together.
"City’s a no-go, we at least need to go to the outskirts."
"That Fossil w ing long’s strength, I reckon it’s not too weak."
"I agree," Adu nodded.
"That’s a hassle, Mr. Adu, you wait a bit, I’ll change into something."
Jing He said, walking toward the room.
Adu nodded, silently waiting.
