Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"boom--"

A deafening roar suddenly broke the peace on the island, startling a group of bird Pokémon.

Lin Yi's expression froze, and he hurried over and was about to speak.

Suddenly, a cloud of thick smoke rose from the depths of the dense forest not far away, accompanied by flickering flames, obviously an explosion had occurred.

"Is it the direction of Yanguang?"

Yun Lan's heart suddenly tightened, and her eyes quickly swept towards the direction where the explosion came from. With a solemn expression, she immediately shouted to everyone:

"Just stay here and don't run around. I'll be back soon."

Then, she squatted down, looked at the photoelectric lizard with a firm gaze, and said earnestly:

"Photoelectric Fly Lizard, I'm counting on you to guard this place. Don't let anyone get hurt."

She knew very well that these researchers usually buried themselves in books and experimental equipment and had almost no combat experience. If they really encountered danger, they might not even be as good as the rookie trainers.

The photoelectric fringed lizard blinked its intelligent eyes and nodded solemnly to show that it understood.

"Be careful."

Professor Shang Hefeng looked concerned. Although he was concerned about Yan Guang's safety, he also knew that he could not panic at this moment.

After all, every industry has its own expertise, and trainers have their own way of dealing with crises. As a researcher focused on academics, he can't just give random orders and cause trouble.

Yunlan responded, her voice slightly hoarse but resolute.

She quickly reached her hand to her waist, tightly grasped the Poké Ball, took a deep breath, and trotted towards the direction where the explosion sounded.

"Lin Yi..."

Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu were like frightened deer, their eyes full of anxiety, and they unconsciously moved closer to Lin Yi, as if they could only find a little comfort by staying by his side.

"don’t worry."

Seeing this, Lin Yi raised a gentle smile, stretched out his two hands, gently placed them on the top of the two women's heads, and gently rubbed them as if comforting a frightened kitten.

This scene happened to fall into the eyes of Tianyu and Qinxin, causing them to surge with envy, jealousy and hatred. They stared at Lin Yi as if they wanted to stare two holes in his body.

"What happened? Could it be that while Brother Yan Guang was exploring the area, he had a conflict with a wild Pokémon?"

Lin Yi seemed unaware. He narrowed his eyes slightly, ignoring the resentful looks of the two "losers". His hands kept moving, his mind was working rapidly, and he fell into deep thought.

After a moment, Lin Yi's expression froze, and he said firmly, "I'll go take a look."

"I also……"

Ruan Yaoyao was extremely anxious. Just as she opened her mouth to express her determination to go with them, Lin Yi was quick to move. He stretched out his index finger, gently pressed it against her pink lips, and shook his head slightly, indicating that she didn't need to do so.

Then, he turned his gaze to Mi Yu, who was also worried and hesitant to speak.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. And it's easier for me to move alone. With Zeraora here, nothing will happen."

Lin Yi's voice is steady and powerful, with a magical power that makes people feel at ease.

Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu were still worried after hearing this, but they also knew that they couldn't fall behind at this moment, so they said nothing more, but just whispered in unison:

"Be careful."

Lin Yi's figure gradually walked away and finally disappeared in the dense jungle. Only the sunlight, cut into pieces by the branches and leaves, fell on the path he left, as if guiding him.

After he was completely gone, the air around him seemed to be a little quieter. Zhao Quanyi realized belatedly that someone was missing and couldn't help but blurt out:

"Where's Lin Yi?"

Ruan Yaoyao and Mi Yu looked at each other quickly, as if they had rehearsed their lines in advance, and said in unison:

"He went to the toilet."

Tianyu and Qinxin, who had been watching the situation here quietly, suddenly widened their eyes and their eyeballs almost popped out when they heard this.

Especially when he saw Mi Yu, who was usually well-behaved and innocent, lying without batting an eyelid, he was extremely shocked.

Although these two people are usually a bit competitive and jealous of Lin Yi for being so close to Mi Yu, they are a bit hesitant when it comes to complaining...

Well, in the final analysis, it was because I was taught a lesson too badly by Lin Yi before. Whenever I think back to that beating, my face still seems to hurt slightly.

When they thought of this, they curled their lips and looked unhappy. In the end, they gave up the idea of ​​complaining and only complained a few words in their hearts.

……

Yunlan crouched down, tapping the ground with her toes, like a cheetah hunting at night, carefully avoiding the tangled vines and protruding branches under her feet, and each step was made silently.

Her sharp eyes, like the twinkling cold stars in the dark night, scanned the surroundings vigilantly, not missing any slight movement. Her muscles were tense, ready to burst out with strength like a bow with a fully drawn string to deal with unknown dangers.

"Wow wow wow!"

The silence was suddenly broken as a group of pompoms flapped their wings and flew past overhead in panic, their sharp cries piercing the sky.

Then, several serpentine bears crawled out from the bushes, roaring "wooooo" from their mouths. Their usual liveliness was gone, and they just kept running wildly.

Yunlan's heart tightened, and she reflexively clenched the Poké Ball at her waist. Her fingers turned white from the force, and her joints crackled.

However, the strange thing was that these Pokémon seemed not to see her as a living person. They just walked around her, their eyes full of fear, and fled desperately, as if there was some ferocious beast behind them that could devour everything.

"Is that there?"

Yunlan lowered her voice and muttered to herself, her brows furrowed, a hint of determination in her eyes.

She took a deep breath, put force on her toes, quickened her pace, and chased in the direction the Pokémon was running.

Finally, a slight noise reached her ears. She felt movement in front of her. She immediately held her breath, bent her waist, and approached slowly and carefully step by step.

"Uh……"

A painful groan escaped from Yan Guang's throat, and he lay on the ground in a miserable state, with dust covering his clothes.

His face was as pale as paper, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead, and one hand was covering his chest with difficulty, as if there was a ball of fire burning there.

He raised his head with great effort and looked towards the distance, only to see his capable partner, the Rotten Wood Demon, covered in wounds, with blood oozing from the shocking wounds, and lying helplessly on the cold ground.

Moving my sight forward, I saw a huge sword ghost standing there majestically, with an upright posture and eyes so sharp that they seemed to be able to penetrate everything, revealing a cold light.

Obviously, all the scars on the rotten wood demon were caused by it.

Yan Guang endured the severe pain and secretly reached his hand slowly to his waist, where a row of Poké Balls were hanging. With trembling fingers, he just groped for the Poké Ball he wanted to take out, trying to find a chance to fight back.

"boom."

Suddenly, a sturdy man appeared like a ghost, kicked up his foot and ruthlessly kicked Yan Guang's hand away.

Then, he raised his leg high and kicked Yan Guang in the chest with tremendous force.

Yan Guang felt as if his chest was hit by a heavy hammer, and a breath of air was stuck in his throat. He groaned, his teeth chattering, but he didn't say a word.

"You guys are chasing us pretty closely."

The man stood condescendingly, holding tightly in his hand a special container, inside which lay quietly a Pokémon egg emitting a mysterious blue light.

His face was stern, like the surface of a lake in the cold winter, without a single ripple. His eyes were fixed on Yan Guang, and his voice was low and cold, as if squeezed out from between his teeth:

"Tell me, where is your companion?"

Yan Guang gritted his teeth, glared at the man without saying a word, but his clenched fists and slightly trembling body revealed his inner anger and unyielding spirit.
