"Speaking of which, Douzi, what happened to that commission you mentioned before?"
Hugo helplessly stared at the landlady of Yuqi Mansion on the ground. The girl with a high ponytail was playing wantonly with her back against Hugo's desk. She was seen holding Hugo's special Pokémon feed in her hand, teasing Hugo's three elves with great interest.
Seeing Bogaman, Grass Turtle, and Little Flame Monkey all huddled together, Douzi showed a very happy giggle.
At this time, the trio at Yu Qidian had already finished their lunch with sandwiches sold at the convenience store. Sister Xiaolan had just experienced an extremely brutal detective introductory education. She fell into visible mental depression in a short period of time and had already gone back to the house to rest. Hopefully she won't have any nightmares.
Naturally, the detective began to care about his next commission.
"Commission?"
For a moment, Douzi fell into a downtime-like confusion. Crouching on the ground and the turtle in front of him, his head tilted and his eyes widened, he finally remembered after a while: "It's the commission I mentioned when Bilan first came here, right? ?At that time, you suddenly mentioned a lot of business scope and professional terms, which shocked me."
The detective nodded: "That is an excellent opportunity to show off your detective skills in front of your co-tenants. There are not many detectives in the world who can tell so many tricks in one breath."
Ignoring Douzi's doubtful expression, Hugo continued to stare at the landlady on the floor pleadingly: "Please tell me the contents of the commission. Work and cases are always urgent, especially now that I have to pay an additional assistant's salary."
Dou Zi fiddled with the black hair on his high ponytail and said leisurely: "Actually, it's not a case. It's a fun and strange daily incident. It's not urgent."
"That's just right. I don't have anything important to do now. Please tell me this strange thing quickly."
The girl's landlady smiled evilly for a long time and did not answer. She had no intention of telling the truth about the commission. Instead, she continued to play with Hugo's Yu Sanjia.
The three little guys were not aware of their master's current anxiety, and continued to chase Douzi's hand holding the feed happily, running from the left to the right, and from the right to the left, over and over again, enjoying themselves.
Hugo finally couldn't stand it anymore. After several failed negotiations, he directly gave an order to his Pokémon: "Turtle, stop playing, and quickly use your proud skull to "bump" the Pokémon in front of you. A woman's belly. "
As expected of a Pokémon hand-picked by the champion, it is smart and obedient, and has a high degree of execution of orders. I saw that Cao Miaogui launched an attack on Douzi without hesitation, without any regard for the identity of the target, and used the "crash" move without mercy.
The turtle stretched out its four short legs and rammed straight into Douzi's stomach at an accelerating speed. Judging from the force, if the skill hit, Douzi might follow Bilan's footsteps and fall into a state of depression.
However, Cao Miaogui's head did not reach the end point. It was not because Douzi avoided it, but for some reason, Cao Miaogui fell on the flat wooden floor, and the power brought by the acceleration of the run-up naturally disappeared.
Even though his center of gravity is so low and he has four legs, why do he still get tripped up? The detective covered his eyes like a pickpocket cat washing his face, unable to bear to look at this scene.
"Ha, Hugo's bad luck physique is activated again!" Dou Zi was startled, but found that the turtle did not hit him, and he couldn't help but be happy and became even more arrogant.
"You couldn't tell it before when you didn't have an elf. It turns out that Hugo's misfortune has become so bad that he can't even activate the skill "Crash"... Wow ah ah ah. "
Douzi suddenly covered his neck and screamed.
It turned out that Bogaman behind him couldn't stand it anymore. Without waiting for Hugo's order, he launched a weakly powerful "water gun" at the back of the girl's neck that was exposed outside the collar.
It seemed that the Pokémon without Hugo's command could use its skills normally. "Water Gun" shocked Douzi with its precise force.
"Well done, Pogaman!" Hugo highly appreciated seeing his subordinates taking such active initiative.
At this time, the three little guys have surrounded Douzi in a double-team situation. The little fire monkey is gearing up, the grass turtle is getting up again, Pogaman is puffing up his cheeks, and the "water gun" is ready to go.
Seeing the Yusan family in full combat mode, Douzi couldn't laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.
.
"The client of the incident is Dr. Yew from Luzi Town. Despite the strange name, she is a well-known elf doctor in the Hezhong area." Douzi sat back on the chair and told the detective.
"I know that she is an expert on the origin of Pokémon and has an archaeologist father. Although I am not interested in research in this area, it can be regarded as a famous name that I have admired for a long time."
"But the mystery she is encountering now has nothing to do with the subjects you mentioned, but it is related to them." Douzi stretched out his hand and pointed to Hugo's elf who was staying aside.
The detective raised his eyebrows curiously: "Is it related to the starter Pokémon?"
"That's right, in addition to conducting his own research, Dr. Elf is also responsible for dispatching the initial partners of novice trainers. In the Hezhu region, our initial Pokémon are the three types: Vine Snake, Water Otter, and Nuan Nuan Pig. Pokémon. Generally speaking, novice trainers will go to the Pokémon Research Institute in Shikako Town to receive one of these from Dr. Yew before embarking on their adventure."
"It's the same everywhere." Hugo nodded and continued, "Sometimes several trainers arrive at the institute at the same time, and the doctor will let them discuss which Pokémon they choose. I heard that in this case , people will call this group of novices "contemporaries" or "strong rivals". And if after all the initial Pokémon are taken away, there is still an unlucky trainer who is late, then Dr. Elf will randomly grab a Pokémon from his backyard and pretend that it is a very rare Pokémon. Meng, use this to kill that guy. "
"No, no, no." Douzi shook his head repeatedly, "This is not the case in our Hezhong area."
The detective then learned that the rules of the United League were different from those in other regions. In order to ensure that novice trainers embarked on a fair journey, Dr. Elf would prepare several more sets of initial Pokémon in the research institute to cope with multiple trainers. Simultaneous door-to-door situation.
Each novice will equally choose his favorite one from three royal three with different attributes.
In addition, the United Alliance has also built many training bases dedicated to raising Pokémon from the three Pokémon families to ensure that no one will be unable to choose that Pokémon due to late arrival or a shortage of Pokémon from the Pokémon family.
"Generally speaking, even if all the Pokémon in the research institute have been picked up, the new novice trainers only need to wait for one more day at most before they can receive the Pokémon shipped from the training base - the same three fair choices. 1. These are the rules in the Unova area.”
"Very complete rules - although I think they are a bit overkill." Hugo commented honestly. "So, what is the problem Dr. Yew faces now?"
"Listen up." The girl said the riddle with great energy, as if this matter had something to do with her.
"In the few months since the beginning of this year, a total of more than sixty novice trainers have come to the Elf Research Institute in Luzi Town. They each selected their favorite Pokémon and embarked on the journey. But the strange thing is that this There are more than sixty trainers from all over the world who have never met each other and know little about Pokémon, but without exception, they choose Otter, the original Pokémon, as their partner on the journey."
"More than sixty people, all chose water otter!" Douzi emphasized again and again.
