As long as you are in the Pokémon world, you cannot avoid Pokémon battles - Hugo has already had a deep understanding of this old saying that comes from nowhere.
Today, he is no longer annoyed by unexpected battles.
"I'm so stupid, really. I shouldn't take it lightly just because I'm investigating a case in the city center and there are police protection around me..."
While thinking about the metal cane placed in the shoe cabinet at the entrance of Yuqi Mansion, Hugo rummaged around in the duty room, looking for a handy weapon. He didn't care at all about the surprised look from the old man next to him, as if he had seen a ghost.
At the same time, the detective also turned on his mobile phone, dialed Junsha's number, and put it in speaker mode on the table.
"Hugo, listen to me, your Pokémon have done a great job this time. Sun Coral was about to jump out of the window and escape, but it was your little Flame Monkeys who stepped forward and subdued the enemy first!"
Junsha's somewhat excited voice reached the detective's ears, and Hugo felt it was noisy. He waited patiently until Junsha's chirping compliments came to an end, and then said in a calm tone -
"Junsha, listen to me. There are six young people suspected of committing crimes right now in front of the gate on the first floor. Our fighting power cannot delay them for too long. Are you and Bilan on the elevator now?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and what came next was a blue voice: "Hugo, all the elevators in the building are on the ground floor. I don't know why they come up very slowly..."
The detective glanced in the direction where the six-person group came from, and immediately understood what was going on: "This is a trick used by the prisoners to delay time. They pressed every floor of the elevator. Bilan, you guys Don't take the elevator now, run down the emergency passage and I'll see if I can hold them back temporarily."
"good."
The assistant's answer was concise and clear, and then he added: "When we go downstairs, we will try to contact Junsha's commander to send someone for support."
"Hugo, are you crazy? You don't have a single Pokémon on you, and there are six people across from you! Do you want to die?" Officer Junsha was far less calm than the detective partners, and the huge roar wanted to shock It sounded like a broken eardrum.
However, the detective ignored him, stretched out his arm and tapped the screen with his fingertips, and hung up the phone.
After hearing the entire call, the apartment manager's eyes widened, and his two eyeballs almost popped out of his sunken eye sockets. His old face was elongated, as if he had never been so surprised in his life.
The old man's tone was severely distorted, and he had lost all the cunning and calmness he had before. He shouted loudly to Hugo: "You mean, those people are... murderers?! Did they kill Greta? Those six young people ?”
"They didn't kill anyone with their own hands, but they are indeed dangerous people."
Hugo was talking absentmindedly when his eyes suddenly lit up. A red blunt instrument was standing quietly somewhere in the corner of the duty room, exuding a faint matte light.
"What a handy attack prop!"
Hugo immediately moved the can of dry powder fire extinguisher in the corner and placed it on the table in front of the old man, making a dull thud.
"The size is moderate and the pressure gauge shows normal. You, the apartment manager, are quite competent. At least you have good fire prevention awareness." The detective even nodded approvingly to the manager.
"Boy, are you really going to go head-to-head with those guys outside? The person on the phone seems to be saying that you don't even have an elf with you, right?" the apartment manager asked the detective in an anxious mood.
Hugo fiddled with the heavy fire extinguisher, feeling the weight of the blunt object in his hand, while nodding towards the skinny old man——
"You have to do this. The group of people will definitely split up and run away immediately after they rush out of the building. At that time, it will be very difficult to catch them all. Look, the young man leading the group has already communicated with the policeman who did not know the inside story. An altercation has begun and a fight is about to break out. Mr. Administrator, can you go to the back door and call the other officer over there?"
Seeing that he had been assigned an easy job, the administrator nodded hurriedly, got up and ran towards the side door away from the center of the storm, and waved to Hayok on the side to follow him.
However, the old dog did not move. He glared at the six suspicious-looking young people with burning eyes. His hair was all over his body, his eyes were stern, and the wrinkles on his mouth were all stacked together. He looked like he would pounce on and bite anyone at any time. Posture.
"Oh, you can stay if you want to!" Seeing that the Pokémon didn't obey the command, the old man stomped the ground with his withered old legs, and then stopped trying to persuade his partner. According to the detective's instructions, The order was sent to call for someone - not forgetting to press the button and completely lock the door of the apartment building with the electronic lock on the duty room side.
Hugo glanced at Hayok beside him, and in the spirit of treating a dead horse as a living horse, he explained the current situation to the old dog——
"The short policeman is trying to delay the prisoner, but this situation will not last long. The prestige of the police is not a big deal to desperadoes. Those young people are now eager to escape. Wait until they After they fully understand their current situation, they will immediately take action forcefully. At that time, you'd better be responsible for jumping out to cover the policeman and buy him time to release the Pokémon he is holding..."
While the detective was muttering to a dog, the young man who was the leader of the six reached out and pushed hard, pushing the policeman who was earnestly trying to dissuade the residents from going out, and pushed the unfortunate short policeman down near the duty room. direction on the ground.
Afterwards, I don’t know if it was in response to the detective’s plan or just out of instinct. The old Hayok jumped out of the door of the duty room at the right time, staring at the group of six with a menacing and fierce gaze. The skill "Stare" was activated, and the criminals seemed to behave a little more panicked.
"Ignore these guys, just smash open the door of the building, and then we split up and escape."
The leader made a slightly gloomy voice, commanding the five people behind him, and at the same time smashed the elf ball in his hand towards the ground.
"Meow." A cute purple kitten appeared in everyone's sight.
""Secret attack on key points"! "The leader commanded the pickpocket cat to attack Hayok. The unmanned old dog was unable to dodge and was scratched firmly by the opponent. Fortunately, it was not hit in the vital part.
At the same time, the companions behind the leader sent out a mess of Pokémon in their hands. Stone balls, bean pigeons, explorers, round tadpoles, and stone crabs were all common Pokémon on the roadside in the Hezhong area.
These little things worked together to launch their skills at the apartment building, but it was unknown whether they were too weak or the door was of good quality, and they were unable to break it for a while.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Hugo left the duty room. In addition to the fire extinguisher, he also took away an old fan that the administrator had used for many years...
"Pickpocket Cat, use "Crazy Scratching" quickly. "
Hiding behind a sofa outside, the detective in a white coat lying on the ground pressed his throat and imitated the leader's tone of voice to give orders to the pickpocket cat. The voice was imitated perfectly.
The young leader became angry: "Pickpocket Cat, that order is not mine..."
Hugo: "Use "sand removal" instead. "
The detective deliberately interrupted when the trainer was talking, leaving the already confused pickpocket cat at a loss as to how to react.
The purple kitten had just withdrawn from the "Crazy Scratching" pre-action that it had subconsciously performed. It raised and lowered its back legs unconsciously. It wondered whether it should use "Shake the Sand". The light that symbolized the activation of the skill faded and appeared, gradually changing. Have to become unstable.
The result was just as the detective expected. In the end, the kitten lost its center of gravity in a weird posture and fell to the ground comically.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the detective jumped up on the sofa, threw the dusty iron fan into the air, and accurately threw it into a row of miscellaneous elves who were performing their moves, disrupting their formation.
Suddenly, the elves who lost their direction also lost their accuracy with their skills, knocking each other off their feet, and many elves were even injured due to the skills of their companions.
After a successful blow, the detective did not retreat but advanced. He selected a lucky trainer nearby, raised the fire extinguisher with his other hand, and knocked out the young man who tried to resist.
"Who the hell is that guy in the white coat!"
The leader was so angry that he almost broke his teeth when faced with the scene that suddenly got out of control and the pickpocket cat under his men who had not yet gotten rid of the chaos.
But it's not just the detective in front of him who brings bad news.
Just when Hugo was showing off his power, the short police officer finally got up again under the cover of Hayok, and decisively sent out his Pokémon - it turned out to be a grass-type Coconut Ape, which looked very powerful. look like.
Victory seemed to go to the detective, but the situation immediately fell apart with the leader's next order——
"Everyone, release all the elves!"
In an instant, countless roadside monsters almost flooded the first floor of the high-end apartment building.
