Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Even the alliance probably doesn't realize that it has been unilaterally infiltrated and riddled with holes.

However, while there is certainly some truth to how hard Giovanni worked in this regard, it was also a result of a two-way effort.

Because of the power of the waveguide, Sakaki is now particularly interested in Lin Xuan.

This guy is obviously not from the Alliance. If he really were from the Alliance, the person standing in front of him wouldn't be this boy, but Wataru and Kikuko.

Even Giovanni had to admit that if he were ganged up on by these guys, he might not be a match for them.

"Since you came here alone, you're not from the League. Since you're not from the League, I think there's room for us to get to know each other. For example... are you interested in joining Team Rocket?"

"I can tell you're here for some purpose. People? Or something else? As long as you're willing to join the Rockets and work for me, I can give you anything you need, including all the resources you require. What the league can give you, I can give you; what the league can't give, I can also provide."

Sakaki immediately switched to his seductive mode, while Lin Xuan, having already checked her radar before entering the room, immediately focused her gaze on a box not far away after hearing Sakaki's words.

"you sure?"

"Of course, but if you're talking about that thing, I might have a few additional conditions."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Half an hour later, Lin Xuan walked out of the Changqing City Dojo with a strange look on his face, and he had some things in his hands.

Of course, it wasn't the thing Lin Xuan wanted.

During the negotiations with Sakaki, Lin Xuan also learned what the phone, or rather, what Arceus really wanted from her—the stone tablet fragments!

That's right, the box in Giovanni's contained fragments of the stone tablet.

As for what Lin Xuan was holding at this moment, it was not the stone tablet fragment he wanted, but rather—a Team Rocket uniform!

Of course, it wasn't the kind of uniform that's obviously Team Rocket, but rather the work uniform of the Evergreen Gym, and even a very high-level one at that.

Thinking about it, it makes sense. With Lin Xuan's abilities, he should at least be a manager on the Rockets, right?

However, Lin Xuan still looked at Eevee and Little Dot with a somewhat puzzled expression.

Am I being CPU-bound?

Lin Xuan felt like she had been tricked by Giovanni, and then she joined Team Rocket in a daze, not even knowing why.

However, the conditions offered by Giovanni were far too lenient, almost frighteningly so.

Sakaki made no demands on Lin Xuan. Although Lin Xuan didn't know why he had become a member of Team Rocket, he felt no responsibility whatsoever.

Even if Sakaki gives him a task, he has the right to refuse.

What surprised Lin Xuan the most was that Sakaki didn't care about anything Lin Xuan did.

Otherwise, if Sakaki asked how Lin Xuan knew about this place, she wouldn't know how to answer.

But it seemed as if Giovanni could read his mind, refusing to ask any of the potentially distressing questions. However, the stone tablet fragment wasn't easy to obtain, and Giovanni needed Lin Xuan's help. As for what it was...

"Mr. Lin Xuan!"

Lin Xuan suddenly heard a sound from the side, turned around and saw that it was Ya Xizi. That girl hadn't left yet?

"Why are you still here?"

"Oh, even though I lost, I still wanted to see a couple more battles, so I stayed. You wouldn't believe it! A really strong Charizard just won the gym battle! So what's this?"

As Akiko spoke excitedly, she looked at the object in Lin Xuan's hand.

"It's nothing, just some new clothes I bought."

Lin Xuan casually showed the clothes to the other person and then put them away. Although Akiko felt that the clothes looked a little familiar, she didn't think there was anything wrong with them and just glanced at them very briefly.

At this moment, Lin Xuan suddenly felt like asking Ya Xi a question:

Do you know Ash Ketchum?

Lin Xuan was still very curious about what Zhi Ye in this world was like.

"You mean Ash? Of course I know him, but he became a trainer two years before me, and I don't even know where he is now."

Akiko had an envious expression on her face.

"Do you know where he's traveling to right now?"

"I know that. It seems to be in... a place called Carlos?"

Akiko thought for a moment and then turned to look at Lin Xuan:

So why are you asking these questions?

"It's nothing, I was just asking. I actually know Xiaozhi too."

This is not a lie; we've known each other for over a decade.

But Carlos's situation... is quite a coincidence!

Lin Xuan rubbed his temples, knowing that his trip to the Pokémon world probably wouldn't be over anytime soon.

Because the condition for Sakaki to give Lin Xuan the stone tablet fragment was that he go to Carlos and help with something.

Regardless of whether the matter succeeds or not, the stone slab fragments will be given to Lin Xuan. This seems to be an offer that he cannot refuse, and Lin Xuan cannot refuse it either.

Because this is the only clue I have to get home.

Lin Xuan packed his things away, said goodbye to Ya Xizi again, and then took out two slips of paper from his pocket.

One sheet had an address written on it, and the other had contact information.

"Why does it seem so unreliable?"

Chapter 559 Eternal Life

"Why does this guy seem to trust me so much, just like Professor Oak?"

Lin Xuan asked Xiao Dian with a hint of helplessness.

Professor Oak's confidence in himself is understandable; he must have seen the "good guy aura" surrounding him.

But is it appropriate for a villainous organization like yours to hire someone like me who has a strong sense of justice?

Lin Xuan thought... well, it seems quite suitable, since she had already agreed anyway.

Moreover, it must be said that in that short period of time, Giovanni made a surprisingly good impression on Lin Xuan. If she didn't know the plot and wanted to return to her own world, joining Team Rocket to make a living would have been a good thing.

"But he's quick on his end; it seems like he's got everything ready."

Lin Xuan carefully put away the two slips of paper she had taken out earlier, and then casually took out a plane ticket and a bank card from her pocket.

This money was all "won" by Lin Xuan at the Rockets' arcade, but in reality, it was all given to Lin Xuan by Giovanni as funds for this operation, and that he could contact him directly if needed after arriving in Carlos.

Although she was nominally a member of Team Rocket, Lin Xuan felt more like she was employed by Giovanni. Giovanni gave her the Slate fragments, and she handed them over to him after finding things in Carlos.

I just found out that Ash also just arrived in the Kalos region. I wonder if there will be a chance to meet him in Kalos?

Lin Xuan is quite looking forward to it.

Carlos region, Miare City

"Huh? You mean headquarters is sending new officers to carry out a secret mission and we need their cooperation? But we have absolutely no idea what it is?"

Outside a coffee shop in Miare, a man, a woman, and a cat appear to be enjoying their lunch—bread and sandwiches.

Just as Kojiro answered Sakaki's call, Musashi and Meowth quickly grabbed the bread on the table and began to wolf it down. In no time, only a pile of crumbs and a croissant in Kojiro's hand remained.

"Hey! Leave some for me!"

Kojiro couldn't help but remind him after seeing this.

"Idiot, who would save that for you!"

"That's right, that's right, meow meow I'm not full yet!"

"Idiot! Are you even listening to me?!"

For some reason, Sakaki felt easily angered when talking to Kojiro and Musashi, as if he were a parent looking at their good-for-nothing child.

"Ahhh! Someone's listening."

While they were talking, a tentacle quietly snatched the bread from Kojiro's hand and put it under the table, making a chewing sound.

Unfortunately, neither Musashi and Meowth, who were focused on eating, nor Kojiro, who was on the phone, noticed.

The next day, Lin Xuan arrived in Miarei City quite smoothly. Sakaki had resolved all the troublesome issues so smoothly that Lin Xuan found it somewhat unbelievable.

Is this the city of Miare?

He touched his chin, while Eevee on his head sniffed the air... Hmm, no difference.

However, Miare is the central metropolis of the entire Carlos region, not only geographically but also economically.

Tourism is quite developed here, and you can see many travelers from different regions walking down the street, such as Lin Xuan.

However, the biggest impression Lin Xuan had of Miare City was—GF, can you get a complete map?

This place is so easy to get lost in, both in the game and in real life.

So the first thing Lin Xuan did after getting off the plane was to buy a map.

After hesitating for a while, he still didn't call the contact number that Sakaki had given him.
