As a trainer, he has the rain trait

Time passed unknowingly, night fell, and gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the sky.

When Zhiqing finished the interrogation and returned home with Zhilin, it was already very late.

Su Nanzhi carefully prepared a sumptuous meal. The hot food exuded an enticing aroma that filled the entire room, filling the home with a strong sense of the New Year and warmth.

Zhiqing and Zhilin pushed open the door, and a warm breath hit them in the face, that was the smell of home.

"You're finally back. The food is almost cold." Su Nanzhi walked out of the kitchen, taking off her apron and complaining, but her eyes were full of joy of reunion during the New Year.

Zhilin looked at the table full of food, his nose sore. The fatigue and stress of the past few days seemed to have found an outlet at this moment. "Mom, you've worked hard," he said softly.

"Silly child, it's so hard for a family to talk about this. Come on, sit down and have a meal. Today is New Year's Eve, and we have to have a good meal." Su Nanzhi said with a smile.

A family of three sat around the dining table, and a warm atmosphere permeated the air among the steaming food.

"Come, try this sweet and sour pork ribs. This is a new recipe I learned." Su Nanzhi picked up some food for the father and son, her eyes full of anticipation.

Zhilin picked up a piece of bright red, juicy pork ribs and put them in his mouth. The sweet and sour taste danced on his tongue, and the aroma of meat spread between his teeth. "Mom, your cooking skills are getting better and better." He praised as he chewed, a satisfied smile on his face.

His talent in cooking was probably inherited from his mother.

"Haha, if it tastes good, eat more. You must be exhausted lately, kid. You look thinner." Su Nanzhi looked at Zhilin with heartache and put some more vegetables into his bowl.

Zhiqing also tasted a piece of spareribs, nodded in praise, and said with emotion: "It's really not easy for our family to sit together and have a reunion dinner."

"Yeah, we're all busy normally. We finally get a holiday, but we're called back urgently." Su Nanzhi sighed, "If it weren't for Linlin's stubborn temper, we wouldn't be able to reunite this year!"

Zhilin didn't dare to say anything, even though he inherited his stubborn temper from his mother.

Zhiqing curled his lips, "Since you're here, I won't say anything to you. Don't be so reckless in the future. You're already twenty years old, an adult, you need to be more mature."

"It's New Year's Day, why are you still scolding the child? Stop using official language!" Su Nanzhi frowned.

"I know." Zhiqing didn't dare to say no, and echoed Su Nanzhi, saying, "Let's not discuss these things. Let's talk about something light and pleasant."

"Well, that's right." Su Nanzhi nodded with satisfaction and raised his glass. "Come on, let's have a toast. I wish you peace and health in the new year!"

"Cheers!" The father and son also raised their glasses, and the three glasses clinked together, making a crisp sound.

The topic at the dinner table gradually turned into relaxed family matters, talking about interesting things in the past and recalling those warm moments.

"Do you remember when Linlin was a child and we took him to the beach for vacation? At that time, Zhilin's pants were torn by a sharp-toothed fish." Su Nanzhi said with a smile.

Zhilin looked at Su Nanzhi with a helpless look on his face. After all, it was a ferocious Pokémon. You have such a big heart!

"Haha, I remember it. Linlin was so scared that he peed his pants, and the sea water turned yellow." Zhilin recalled with a smile.

Zhilin's face darkened. His father was really cruel when it came to insulting people.

However, he has no memory of this. He remembers being bitten by a small shark.

Thinking of this, Zhilin's thoughts continued to wander. Was it that the Pokémon world and the original world merged, or did he travel to a parallel world?

“Linlin…Linlin…Linlin!!!”

The sudden loud noise startled Zhilin.

Su Nanzhi stared at Zhilin and asked suspiciously, "What are you thinking about? I've already called you several times!"

Zhilin laughed and said, "Nothing much, I'm just thinking about whether I should travel to other alliances in the future."

"Other alliances? What do you think, Lao Qing?" Su Nanzhi turned around and asked Zhiqing what he thought.

Zhiqing put down his chopsticks and said calmly, "If Linlin wants to go out and explore, then go out and explore! Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. It's always good to see more and experience more."

Su Nanzhi thought for a moment and then warned, "Mom won't stop you, but you must be careful when you go out. Don't think you can run around just because you're strong now."

Zhilin chuckled. He just made up an excuse and his parents actually started a discussion.

But he had to go out. In addition to fulfilling the promise with Sakaki, he also wanted to see Tomoya, Professor Oak and others in person.

But it’s too early to think about these things. I have to collect all the badges before I can consider these things.

The family continued to eat the reunion dinner with laughter and joy. The sound of fireworks could be heard from outside the window from time to time, adding a festive atmosphere to this warm scene.

On this New Year's Eve, they forgot their worries, cherished this rare reunion time, and let the strong family affection flow in this reunion dinner.

Zhiyu, who was far away in Kyoto, looked at the pile of documents in her hands and cursed, "If I had known earlier, I would have run away with my good grandson!"

......

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Yue's investigation did not make any progress, because everyone was basically resting. After all, it was the Lunar New Year, and even if they could not go home, they had to celebrate the New Year.

The inspector, who had rested for a day, was in excellent condition and investigated Xu Yue thoroughly in half a day.

Since four years ago, Xu Yue has been accepting black money from poaching gangs for a long time. These ill-gotten gains allowed him to act as a protective umbrella for the poaching gangs. He used his power to secretly help them carry out poaching activities.

If he hadn't been greedy this time and stole the Pokémon from the poachers, and the poachers hadn't retaliated against him, it's unknown how long he would have continued doing this.

And if Zhilin hadn't discovered it, he might have been able to handle it. By accident, Zhilin had made a contribution.

Xu Yue was sentenced to life imprisonment, and those involved in the poaching gang were successively identified and received the punishment they deserved.

In the secret compartment of Xu Yue's residence, investigators also found a detailed list, which densely recorded the personnel information of the poaching gang and their approximate distribution.

Based on this list, the alliance quickly launched a large-scale manhunt.

The entire Frost North region was mobilized, and patrol officers raided various strongholds. Members of the poaching gangs who once thought they could get away with it were caught completely off guard.

Members of the poaching gangs were arrested one after another, and those who had committed crimes in the dark finally received the punishment they deserved.

The remaining small group of poachers, knowing that the situation was hopeless, attempted to escape across the border, but they were blocked by Team Rocket outside the border.

Team Rocket set up numerous checkpoints in the border area to prevent these people from escaping Donghuang.

The poachers were in dire straits, with nowhere to escape within Donghuang. They could only flee like headless flies. But the patrol officers did not give them any chance to breathe. With the help of the public, they were arrested one after another.

With the last poacher on the list being handcuffed, poaching in the entire Frost North region has been almost eliminated. Even if there are still a few fish caught, it is not a big deal.

However, when Zhiqing learned that Team Rocket was helping them stop poachers outside the border, he was very confused. "Team Rocket is actually helping us catch poachers? Aren't they the biggest poaching gang?"

This made Zhilin, who was standing by, feel guilty.
