As a trainer, he has the rain trait

Zuo Tingyun looked at the threatening letter in his hand, his brows gradually furrowed, and his eyes became serious.

"When did you see it?"

"I saw it after class today. I went back to the dormitory at noon and didn't see it. It should have been delivered between 2pm and 4pm."

Zuo Tingyun was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Don't panic. This matter is indeed serious, but we can definitely protect you."

Zhilin nodded. "I know, but being threatened is always unpleasant. Besides, the pirates on the sea are still determined. There's no reason to be on guard against thieves for a thousand days."

Zuo Tingyun stroked the black skull mark on the envelope with his fingertips and said in a deep voice, "Maybe it's not the Fuhai Clan..."

Seeing Zhilin was puzzled, Zuo Tingyun explained, "This is the mark of the Valley of Evil."

"The Valley of the Wicked?"

Zhilin recalled the man in the vegetable market incident and asked, "Another underground force?"

Zuo Tingyun stood up, looked at Zhilin, and said, "Did you encounter anyone suspicious when you came to my place?"

Zhilin frowned, tried to recall, shook his head, and said, "I didn't meet any suspicious people along the way."

Zuo Tingyun nodded and said, "Take your Pokémon with you and try not to leave the school's sight. We will solve this problem for you."

After hearing what Zuo Tingyun said, Zhilin felt a little relieved.

“Thank you, Teacher Zuo!”

Zuo Tingyun patted Zhilin on the shoulder and said, "You're welcome. As a teacher, it's my duty to protect my students."

Zhilin nodded, turned and left Zuo Tingyun's office.

After Zhilin left, Zuo Tingyun's face immediately darkened and he took out his cell phone and made a call.

"Hey, Principal Mei!"

"what happened?"

"Someone is targeting Zhilin!"

A cold snort came from the phone, "It seems that you think I can't lift the knife anymore."

"There is a mark of the Valley of Evil." Zuo Tingyun added.

There was a pause on the other end of the line before a reply came: "It can't be the Evil Valley. They... have been wiped out by Suzaku."

Zuo Tingyun was slightly stunned. "Was it... destroyed?"

"Well~ Don't worry, kid. I will take care of this matter."

"Okay~"

......

In the Kanto region, a base that resembles a dark and eerie fortress is quietly hidden beneath the game city.

The passage of the base was winding, and Lambda walked hurriedly and soon arrived at the door of an office.

He stopped, took a deep breath, raised his hand and knocked on the door gently.

"Come in." A steady and hoarse voice came from inside the door. Lambda slowly pushed the door open and walked into the office.

The decoration inside the office is simple and elegant, with a huge red R-type badge hanging on the black wall.

A figure was elongated in the dim light and cast on the cold ground. One could only vaguely make out that it was a man in a suit, his appearance unknown.

An elegant cat lay beside him, with its tail raised high, staring at the newcomer with cold eyes.

Lambda stood up straight, lowered his head slightly, and said respectfully, "Master Sakaki, I have some bad news to report to you."

Sakaki raised his eyelids slightly, and his sharp eyes shot towards Lambda like a sword, but he did not speak. He just waited quietly for him to continue.

Lambda swallowed, trying to keep his voice steady, and said, "Our layout in Donghuang was destroyed, and our branch was wiped out by the Fuhai Clan."

Sakaki's expression remained calm, without a single ripple. He narrowed his eyes slightly, a subtle hint of thought flashing through them.

After a moment's silence, Sakaki slowly said, "Tell me the details."

Lambda composed himself and began to recount what had happened. "Our branch in Donghuang was established in the Jingchu and Fujian-Guangdong regions, and we were constantly being suppressed by the Fuhai Clan, who also operated in these two regions. But then the Donghuang Alliance launched a major move, crushing the Fuhai Clan into submission. The branch's personnel let down their guard, and the Fuhai Clan's Suzaku discovered their base. They launched a surprise attack, catching the branch completely off guard and destroying it. The casualties were heavy, and only a few escaped."

Sakaki listened quietly, his expression remained unchanged, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound.

"The Fukaishu? How will you respond?" Sakaki raised his head and asked Lambda, his voice calm and steady, without a trace of panic.

Lambda gave an answer that satisfied Sakaki: "I sent a threatening letter to the students of Jingchu University who have a grudge against them. This way, we can alert Jingchu University and use Jingchu University to deal with the Fukai people."

Sakaki nodded slightly and said, "Well done. Let's withdraw our men. We can't leave any traces for others to notice when we are trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife."

Lambda quickly said, "Don't worry, Chief. I have made all the arrangements. It won't arouse anyone's suspicion."

Lambda thought for a moment, then hesitated and said, "However, one team has lost contact with the headquarters. They..."

Sakaki knew which team it was before he finished speaking. The figures of Musashi and Kojiro flashed through his mind. These two seemingly unreliable subordinates also played a certain role in many actions of Team Rocket. They were quite capable.

So he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. They have plenty of ways to escape."

"Yes!" Lambda said respectfully.

Sakaki waved his hand, signaling Lambda to leave. Lambda bowed slightly, then turned and left the office.

After Lambda left, Sakaki turned his chair and looked at the red R on the wall, a cold light in his eyes...

Meanwhile, Musashi and Kojiro are running for their lives.

The underground pipes exuded a damp smell, with water droplets constantly dripping from the top. The shallow puddles on the ground constantly emitted a musty and fishy smell. With every step Musashi and Kojiro took, they could feel the wetness coming from the soles of their feet, which made them frown, but they had to move forward with difficulty in the underground pipes, with Meowth following behind them listlessly.

"Musashi, there's no need to run away from here," Kojiro complained.

Musashi glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. There are countless spies from the Fukai clan looking for us up there."

"But headquarters said that all the Fukai people have retreated, meow~"

Musashi carefully stepped over a puddle of stagnant water and retorted, "Who knows if they're hiding?"

Kojiro sighed, "Forget it. It's better to be careful. The base was discovered by the Fukai Clan by accident."

Musashi clenched his fists and said, "When we get out, I will definitely take revenge!"

Meow Meow nodded in agreement, "As long as our revenge is successful, we will get a reward from Boss Sakaki, meow~"

Musashi and Kojiro's eyes lit up, "We can get promoted and become executives!"

"I can chase away that damned Meow Boss and enjoy the caress of Sakaki Boss, Meow~"

The sound of giggling echoed in the underground pipes...
