Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?

Chapter 288: An Ingenious Assassination

"Wha...what?"

Miyano was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he didn't understand what was going on. What did the other party mean? Didn't he want to live?

"Bah, how can you be so ungrateful, kid? You're just looking for death." Dark Crow spat and watched coldly.

"what?"

Xiaoyu didn't understand either, and covered her mouth in surprise.

The other members of the Black Crow team were talking at once, using foul language and swear words, and joining in the booing with their leader.

For a while.

Everyone inside and outside the room turned their eyes to the black-robed figure in the center of the room, just like a stage play had just begun, with the protagonist appearing under the glaring spotlight.

But what happened next did not give them even a second to understand.

The "protagonist" slowly raised his arms. The movement seemed slow but carried an indescribable momentum.

then……

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, a crisp snap of fingers broke the brief silence, exploding in the air like thunder.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening explosion was heard in the corridor, accompanied by billowing smoke and blazing flames, causing the ground in the entire room to begin to tremble slightly.

At the same time, the originally bright chandelier above the ceiling flickered a few times, as if making its last struggle, and then went out completely.

Only darkness enveloped everyone. The endless darkness was like a thick curtain, once again tightly covering the entire room.

At the door, the Black Crow team members who had been standing quietly suddenly fell into chaos and started to quarrel first, which intertwined with each other to form a noisy scene, turning the bedroom into a bustling vegetable market in an instant.

"What the hell is going on?!" someone shouted in surprise.

"The distribution box must have blown up! Where are the electric Pokémon on our side? Hurry up!" another person shouted anxiously.

"Everyone, hurry up and protect the boss. Oops, who squeezed me?" Another person complained.

however.

Faced with the sudden change, Miyano did not panic like the others. He calmly ordered, "Lucario, quickly determine Shadow's exact location. We must not let him escape!"

She is the leader of the alliance investigators, and a small situation like a sudden power outage is nothing. As long as she can grasp the key person, she will be invincible!

And she knew Lucario's strength very well. Lucario had never made any mistakes in locking onto the enemy thanks to its excellent wave perception ability.

So this time, facing the cunning Shadow, Miyano firmly believed that as long as Lucario was there, the opponent would never escape from their grasp.

"Luka~"

After hearing the master's order, Lucario's bright eyes immediately shone brightly. He stared at the front with full concentration, locking his target tightly.

Lucario was not affected at all by the sudden darkness around him. After all, it did not rely on ordinary vision to observe and perceive things in the outside world, but on the magical power of waveguide.

The next moment, Lucario's agile figure suddenly flashed, and he rushed towards the direction of the shadow like an arrow.

……

Not long after, after a low "buzzing" sound, the electricity gradually returned to normal under the full supply of a Roentgen cat.

The dazzling chandelier once again emitted bright light, illuminating the entire room like daylight, and everyone present could finally see the scene in the bedroom clearly again.

"Ah, Boss!"

Suddenly, a terrified scream broke the brief silence.

Everyone was startled by the sudden shout and looked in the direction of the sound.

The Dark Crow, who had been standing steadily and majestically in the center of the crowd, now looked as pale as paper and his body was shaking.

And in his chest, there was an extremely sharp dagger!

It was like a ferocious poisonous snake piercing straight into his back, and the sharp tip of the knife pierced through the front of his chest.

"Uh...uh..."

As Dark Crow's weak breathing rose and fell, strands of blood gushed out from the horrific wound, quickly staining his luxurious white clothes red.

Driven by the instinct of survival, he stretched out his trembling hand, trying to take out the life-saving healing potion from the space bracelet he was carrying.

However, the movements became slower and weaker, as if the fire of life was being extinguished bit by bit.

"Quick, who has a Pokémon that can use healing skills? Save the boss quickly!" The anxious Black Crows team members shouted in unison.

Just then, one of the team members yelled, "Pixie, use Healing Wave!"

As he said that, he quickly released his Pixie from the Poké Ball.

However, before Pixie could use her skills, Dark Crow's body trembled violently, then slowly fell backwards, landing heavily on the cold ground.

His once sharp and bright eyes gradually lost their luster, and he died with his eyes open.

This man, a powerful figure in the underground forces of Zhuqing City, actually... died just like that?!

"It's Arbok's venom!"

At this moment, a sharp-eyed team member noticed the strange purple light emanating from the dagger and the traces of dark purple venom remaining on it, and couldn't help but scream in surprise.

But it's too late...

The life of the Dark Crow came to an abrupt end, leaving behind only a group of bewildered Dark Crow members.

……

Outside the window.

The museum owner-level crow leader had already flown into the house and was anxiously looking for his master.

Miyano frowned as he watched this scene, his eyes turned cold again, and anger rose in his heart.

In front of her, Youying actually killed someone.

And according to her deduction, the murderer should be among the group of wailing Black Crows in front of her. She never thought that Shadow would use such a method...

After comforting the frightened Xiaoyu behind him, Miyano cast an angry gaze at Shadow, who had been captured by Lucario, and said in a cold voice, "You... do you really want to die?"

"Luka~"

Lucario keenly sensed the anger in his master's heart, and without hesitation stretched out his strong and powerful arms, suddenly tearing off the hood covering Shadow's face and the black cloth tightly wrapped around his face.

With this series of actions, the true face hidden underneath was finally exposed!

Suddenly.

A beautiful face appeared before everyone, her fair skin looked a little weak, her lips were tightly pursed and trembling slightly.

"..."

Miyano was originally nervous and stared at the scene in front of her, but when the true appearance of the "Shadow" appeared in front of her, she was stunned for a moment.

Who would have thought that this notorious murderer who frightened countless people would actually be a young boy with a feminine temperament, and he looked so young.

“I want to see it too…”

Xiaoyu, who was sitting not far behind Miyano, couldn't help but lean forward, wanting to see what this big bad guy who had bullied her looked like.

However, after just a quick glance, Xiaoyu recognized the man and blurted out in surprise: "You are not Youying, you are... the slave... rescued by Youying!"
