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

Lin Yi raised his hand and patted the head of the pterosaur with full confidence. His voice was gentle but with a hint of expectation.

"From now on, it's up to you."

He thought that the fossil pterosaur would cheer up and respond to him with a firm roar as usual.

However, he waited for a long time without hearing the familiar movement, which made him feel puzzled and he slowly turned his head.

You won’t know until you see it, it’s so hilarious.

I saw that the fossil pterosaur had been lying on the beach at some point, with its limbs stretched out and its head resting on its front paws. It was sleeping soundly, and a slight snoring sound came from its nose, which was particularly clear on the quiet beach.

"No, you can fall asleep like this?"

Lin Yi was both angry and amused. He stretched out his hand and gently shook the pterosaur fossil, and said half-jokingly,

"Hello, this is not a place to sleep."

But no matter how he shook it, the fossil pterosaur showed no response, as if it was trapped in a deep dream from which it could not wake up.

Lin Yi's smile gradually disappeared, replaced by a face full of vigilance. He keenly realized that something seemed to be wrong.

"Lin Yi...Manaphy...I'm so sleepy..."

At this moment, Manaphy, who was lying on Lin Yi's shoulder, suddenly yawned loudly, and her pink little tongue stretched out.

Afterwards, as if he could no longer resist the sleepiness, he rested his chin on Lin Yi's shoulder, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

"What happened..."

Before Lin Yi could finish his words, a strong feeling of fatigue came over him like a surging tide, drowning him in an instant.

He felt the scene in front of him begin to become blurry, his legs became weak, and he fell backwards uncontrollably.

"boom."

With a dull thud, Lin Yi fell straight onto the beach, raising a small cloud of dust.

Almost at the same moment, the surrounding air seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand, and a group of people appeared out of thin air.

They all had the American flag printed on them, which was particularly dazzling in the sun.

"Why go to all that trouble when you can just kill him directly? First put his Pokémon to sleep and then hypnotize him? Don't forget that the Hunter Association is nearby, and they are eyeing Manaphy as well."

Gula frowned, his face full of confusion, and looked at Eliza beside him and questioned.

Eliza did not answer immediately. Instead, she directed her men with a focused look to carefully put the sleeping Manaphy into a special container.

After doing all this, she walked slowly to Lin Yi, bent down gracefully, stretched out her slender fingers, gently hooked Lin Yi's chin, lifted his face, revealing his well-defined and handsome face.

"Look carefully, this young man is one of the new Four Heavenly Kings of China, the son of Lin Guochang."

Eliza's voice was cold, and there was a warning in her eyes.

"If you want to completely involve China and cause unnecessary trouble, then just do as you wish."

When Gula heard this, he felt as if something was suddenly choking his throat. He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

His face turned pale and red, and finally he could only shut his mouth helplessly and stopped refutation. He turned around to direct his men to speed up the action, but there was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.

……

In the submarine's dimly lit main control room, the atmosphere was extremely tense and depressing.

Gula and Eliza stood solemnly in front of the huge communication screen. On the screen, the blond and blue-eyed face of the President of the Republic of Laomei was particularly eye-catching. Although the years had carved deep wrinkles on his face, the greedy light flashing in his eyes had not diminished at all.

"Don't worry, Mr. President."

Gula took a step forward, held his head high, pointed his finger at the special container where Manaphy was placed, and said confidently with a smug look on his face,

"We have successfully obtained Manaphy."

His voice was loud and resonant, echoing in the main control room, as if announcing their "victory" to the world.

"Well done, King Gula, King Eliza!"

The president's face was immediately filled with a smile, a smile like a blooming chrysanthemum, but with a hint of hypocrisy.

He was not stingy with his praise, his tone was full of excitement and pride,

"In this way, the treasure of the Sea Temple will definitely belong to our Laomei Republic."

As he spoke, he gestured with great excitement, as if the legendary treasures had already been pocketed by him.

Then, there was another round of exaggerated promises, promising generous rewards and supreme glory, trying to further motivate these two kings to work for him.

Gula and Eliza listened quietly, with respectful smiles on their faces, but they each had their own plans in their hearts.

Gula secretly thought about the risks and rewards of this mission, wondering how much practical benefit he could get from the president's promise.

Eliza frowned slightly, with a barely perceptible worry flashing in her eyes. She knew that obtaining Manaphy was only the first step, and the road ahead would probably be even more difficult and dangerous.

Finally, after a lengthy conversation, the president ended the call and the picture on the screen gradually dimmed.

Gula and Eliza looked at each other without saying anything, but they both saw a hint of fatigue in each other's eyes.

Eliza was the first to break the silence after the call. She sighed softly, with a hint of worry that was difficult to conceal in her voice and deep uneasiness in her eyes:

"Gula, things may not be as simple as we thought. The Hunter Association has been eyeing Manaphy. They will definitely not let go of this opportunity easily and will definitely try their best to take it back. Moreover, there is also China..."

She paused for a moment, a complex look flashing across her face.

"I always feel that with their strength, it is impossible that they were unaware of Manaphy's arrest. Some time ago, they found out the details of our planting in China, and we have no idea what they will do next.

That Xia Nantian is not an ordinary person. With his abilities and means, I really don’t believe he will sit back and do nothing.”

After hearing this, Gula snorted disdainfully, his face full of arrogance and conceit, and waved his hand vigorously and said loudly:

"What are you afraid of? We now have advanced submarines and so many well-trained men. What can they do to us?

As long as we can successfully find the Sea Temple and get the treasure inside, even if China and the Hunter Association come to us aggressively, we will have enough strength to compete with them."

Hearing this, Eliza frowned even deeper, obviously disagreeing with Gula's blind confidence and unfounded optimism.

She shook her head slightly and refuted seriously:

"Don't forget that the exact location of the Sea Temple is still an unsolved mystery. Although we have captured Manaphy, who can guarantee that it will cooperate with us to find the temple? What if it doesn't cooperate? What should we do?"

Gula was about to open his mouth to refute, trying to continue to stick to his point of view.

At this moment, the door of the main control room was suddenly pushed open, and a subordinate ran in hurriedly with a panicked look, reporting breathlessly:

"My Lords, the boy who was with Manaphy has woken up. He actually knocked out the guards and is now gone!"

"How can it be?!"

When Eliza heard this, a flash of shock and disbelief flashed across her face.

"Let's not talk about how he escaped from my Milotic hypnosis. His Pokémon were all detained by us. How could he knock out the guards and escape successfully?"

"Fuck! I said we should have killed him right from the beginning to avoid all the trouble and complications now!"

Gula couldn't help but curse loudly, his face full of regret and anger, and then he and Eliza quickly ran towards the place where the teenager was imprisoned.

The subordinate stayed in the main control room. After Gula and Eliza disappeared at the door, he slowly turned around and looked directly at the special container containing Manaphy.

His eyes flickered, as if he was having a fierce ideological struggle. After hesitating for a moment, he finally slowly stretched out his hand and touched the container.

"Snapped!"

Just as his hand touched the container, a slender but powerful hand reached out like lightning and grabbed his wrist accurately.

Eliza had quietly returned without knowing when. She stared at the person in front of her, her eyes sharp as a torch, and questioned word by word:

"who are you?"
