The weekend arrived as scheduled.

The expedition company prepared an activity plan in advance.

Following Huizi's notification, Lu An chose to sign up.

It's worth mentioning that although his roommates Gosuke and Imai don't have Pokémon, all four of them joined the Adventure Club.

Yes, even Muto from the battle club has joined.

After dinner, it got dark.

Standing at the agreed meeting point of the exploration club, Muto scratched his face, recalling what Naoko, the vice president of the battle club, had told him:

"Muto, the school has a rule that each student can join two clubs. You probably only joined the combat club, right?"

"It just so happens that you and Lu An are roommates. Your task is to join the adventure club and observe his every move up close."

“My older brother is coming back from the Hoenn region soon. When he gets back, I’ll persuade him to bring Lu An into the school team.”

Muto replied, "But didn't Lu An say he didn't want to fight?"

Naoko rolled her eyes at him, but there was no alluring charm whatsoever, only youthful exuberance:

"Idiot, does a man's 'no' mean it? No wonder you're still only with your Pokémon and can't even find a boyfriend."

"His Espeon is definitely not ordinary; someone with that kind of strength would never truly refuse a battle."

"Once I let my older brother fight him, we'll know just how strong he really is."

"Before that, gather as much information as possible about him, understand?"

Thinking of the energetic vice president, Muto sighed. Could he really handle this daunting task?

Lu An was unaware that a mole planted by Naoko had appeared in his dormitory.

He was introducing Keiko to his roommate.

"Keiko, this is my roommate, Kosuke, and this is Imai."

Keiko glanced at Imai, who was even prettier than a girl, then compared herself to her and felt ashamed of her appearance.

"You're so pretty, miss."

Lu An chuckled; he loved seeing people mistake Imai for a girl.

Imai gave Lu An a captivating glare, then spoke softly to Keiko:

"Hello, Keiko, I'm Lu An's roommate, Imai."

"Ah! You, you're roommates! How can you live together as a couple!"

Huizi covered her mouth with her hand, her face full of surprise.

"Puff puff."

Lu An and Gangjie chuckled to themselves, while Imai looked helpless.

"You've got it wrong, I'm actually a boy."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!"

Watching the cute freckled girl frantically apologizing to Imai, Gangjie nudged Lu An and winked:

"What do you mean? Is something wrong?"

Lu An slapped his gossipy roommate's face away:

"I have my baby Ibu, that's enough."

Gangjie curled his lip: "Young people don't know the value of love, and mistake an elf for a treasure."

Keiko cautiously glanced at Imai twice, then looked at Lu An, blushing and lowering her head.

It seems that Lu An is still more attractive to her.

Not long after, the adventure club president, Ono, led the participants on a bus to Shion Town.

Ziyuan Town is very close to Jinhuang City; you can basically drive straight there.

So it only took less than an hour for Ohno to inform everyone that they had arrived at their destination.

Upon arriving at his destination, whether it was psychological or the dim light, Lu An felt that the surrounding environment was gloomy.

"Fellow members of the exploration club, tonight is the night of a full moon, and our exploration site is a ruin."

“The residents of Ziyuan Town say that ghosts are often seen in Ziyuan Town, and this ruin is no exception.”

"I wonder if any of you will have the honor of encountering the legendary ghost, haha."

The members of the expedition were all very excited.

Normally, they might spend money to play immersive murder mystery games near the school, but compared to the atmosphere of exploring ruins at night, it's nothing.

"I wonder if I'll ever have a chance to see a ghost."

"Haha, maybe it's not a ghost at all, but a chandelier spirit. Once you step inside, it will suck your life away!"

"Wow, you're so scary!"

President Ohno watched the lively discussion, everyone tense yet filled with anticipation in the darkness of the night.

Ohno smiled smugly.

He'd wanted to organize an adventure in Ziyuan Town for a long time.

In the past, it was avoided because it was a Pokémon graveyard.

After hearing rumors of ghosts in Lavender Town, I immediately discussed with several members of the adventure club and chose an abandoned ruin near Lavender Town.

To add some entertainment value, they even had Ghost-type Pokémon hide in the shadows, ready to scare the members of the adventure club.

"Clap clap."

President Ohno clapped his hands:

"Alright everyone, to enhance the atmosphere of the adventure, we will enter the ruins in batches, with no more than five people in each team."

"Of course, several of our key members of the exploration company will accompany us."

"Next, everyone, form teams and draw lots. Go in according to the order of the draw."

Without a doubt, the four people in room 438 formed a group, and with Huizi, they made a group of five.

They are in the third group.

After the first group entered the ruins, a new group of students entered every three minutes.

Soon it was their turn, the third group.

Just as they were about to enter the ruins.

【Ding! 】

Team Rocket is conducting experiments using Pokémon corpses, and Lavender Town, the Pokémon graveyard, is one of their secret bases.

You and your companions have infiltrated Team Rocket's secret base and have come to their attention.

Although the individuals lurking in the shadows are not members of Team Rocket's executives, they still pose a significant danger to you, who have just acquired Pokémon.

However, the members of the exploration club were unaware of the dangers hidden within the upcoming expedition.

Protect your teammates and defeat the lurking Team Rocket (Difficulty: 3 stars)

[Quest Reward: Sunstone*1]

Lu Anxin's mind sharpened.

Rockets!

Because the original Pokémon storyline is so extensive, with various parallel worlds existing, and considering the butterfly effect after his time travel, many of the events from his memories may not actually happen.

However, after being reminded by the system, Lu An remembered that in the special episode, Team Rocket used Pokémon to conduct genetic experiments in order to artificially create a legendary Pokémon.

They conducted a series of experiments on Pokémon corpses from the Lavender Town cemetery.

Some of the ghost stories about Lavender Town were deliberately spread by Team Rocket.

Thinking of an unpleasant memory from the past, Lu An's normally normal expression turned somewhat gloomy, startling Hui Zi, who was about to tease him.

However, even though Lu An knew the true nature of this expedition, looking at his enthusiastic companions, he didn't know how to start the conversation.

"This expedition is a conspiracy by Team Rocket. Let's head back now."

I knew perfectly well they wouldn't believe me.

More importantly, two groups of members have already entered the ruins. If they are left unattended, who knows what the Rockets might do to them.
