Chapter 33 desperately needs a villain to test the power of the sticky pills.

"This is a dojo, not Officer Jenny's territory!"

Zhu Suihan retorted, "But aren't you also assisting in maintaining order? Don't you even have a detention center?"

"nonsense!"

"Okay, I was originally going to try it out right there."

The process of replicating ancient techniques went surprisingly smoothly. Although factors such as Abi providing the venue and money paving the way for materials contributed to the success, the results came out quickly.

Abi looked on warily: "What are you going to do? You didn't prepare some kind of item for Chenglong that can unleash tremendous power in a short time, did you?"

Sui Han is the kind of guy who'll find his own "fun," so we have to be careful.

"No, it's a brand new catching tool, but I don't want to put unnecessary pressure on other Pokémon, so I wanted to see if there was any heinous meal replacement."

Zhu Suihan suddenly remembered: "By the way, what about the Pokémon of those three people I captured? Is there any explanation?"

Abi was taken aback: "Huh? It seems there really is such a saying. Even if Officer Jenny gets Miss Joey's help, it shouldn't be that quick."

Zhu Suihan frowned: "Quick? Quick what? Why do we still need Joey to do ideological education?"

"Didn't I tell you, Dark Orb?"

Zhu Suihan asked in confusion, "But those three weaklings I caught, I handled their Poké Balls, and it seemed like they were coated with... something?"

Change the skin.

"Yes, they coated the dark sphere with paint to disguise it."

Abi patted her cheeks: "I'm also very curious about what you've come up with. I'll go with you after get off work."

"How about we reschedule for another time, after we've eaten? Or would you like to come back and eat with me?"

Abi nodded happily: "I'd never refuse a free meal."

"It's settled then. I'll go prepare some ingredients first. We're having hot pot today."

The dragon came closer: "Woo-woo?"

Zhu Suihan sighed helplessly, "Forget about it, it's not like an ice cream fondue, there's no sweet version."

“Wuwu!”

Chenglong's eyes lit up; she wanted to eat that ice cream fondue!

"Strictly speaking, it's an ice cream platter with hot chocolate. Okay, I'll make one for you. There's no time to make it fresh, so I'll go buy some different flavors of berry ice cream and try to recreate it."

Zhu Suihan was ultimately defeated under the watchful gaze of Chenglong's large, watery eyes.

Chie was leaving school when Takeshi Han sat on a bench outside the school, holding an incense burner, preparing a meal for Lapras and Pendulum's Pokémon.

A type of energy cube that is completely different from the flavor of the dragon is indeed worth studying, in Zhu Suihan's opinion.

The jade-green energy cube was placed in a box by Zhu Suihan to keep it fresh. Among them was a special product with a color similar to that of top-grade jadeite. That was the highest quality one, a product of chance.

"Brother Suihan! Riding the dragon!"

“Wuwu!”

Chenglong leaned over and, in the manner of an older sister, tapped Qianhui's head with her chin.

From now on, call Longlong by his name first!

"You two rascals, come on, Abi is coming to visit today."

Chie was even happier, or rather, children are all a bit of a show-off, and besides, Abi wasn't a stranger to the little girl.

"What are you doing? Come in and help me."

The group returned to Steel's home, and Zhu Suihan decisively used a chokehold to pull Abi over to help, leaving Lapras and Scizor to take care of the child.

If it weren't for the fact that Steel felt it wasn't safe, given Chie's small child-like physique, any one of Bi's three Bug-type brothers could easily carry her around at low altitude.

After listening to Abi's account, Gangtie finally realized what someone had been doing all this time.

"You'll be very envious of Xuecheng."

Steel laughed and said, "Whether it's the Northern Darkness Sphere or the new achievement you've come up with today, believe me, once Xuecheng finds out, he'll be eager to fly over to find you."

"It's alright, I guess."

Zhu Suihan said, "Mr. Steel, do you really not grow Primal Cones here? Buying them from Rocket Group is too expensive."

To be honest, he only just realized that the price he saw on his phone was an internal price!

Buying it outside would be even more expensive!

"No, these cone trees were actually transplanted from the wild when I was young."

Steel's eyes were filled with memories: "In my time, the technological research on Poké Balls had already yielded results, and since Snow already knew about these things, I didn't transplant Primal Berries."

"Later, Xuecheng decided not to become the champion but to go back and start a research institute. As a result, he ended up with a small pine forest, which included some original pine trees."

"Suihan, if you want more Primal Celestial Fruits in the future, you can talk to Xuecheng about it. He has a lot of space there, and it's a very interesting project. Xuecheng would definitely be happy to help."

Zhu Suihan prepared the soup ingredients: "I'll think about this some more. Actually, the badminton shuttlecock isn't what I want most; the other one is."

After learning the general steps, Zhu Suihan can try making sticky balls using those colorful spheres.

Even if the utilization rate of the captured energy is relatively low, just throw out a few more.

If all else fails, pack several together and play with cluster bombs; one section is better than six.

The hot pot and side dishes are ready, along with the Pokémon's energy cubes, berries, and drinks, as well as some nutritional drinks brought by Abi, which are said to be made with a unique Bug-type formula.

Besides the dessert that Chenglong wanted, Longlong, whose curiosity was perhaps a little too much, also wanted to try Zhu Suihan's dipping sauce, which made his cheeks turn red from the spiciness.

Heretic, prepare to be burned at the stake!

Zhu Suihan said he wouldn't take the blame: "Don't be ridiculous, I've never tried sweet hot pot dipping sauce before."

Chenglong's flavor isn't the sweet and salty kind of dipping sauce; it's purely dessert-sweet, which is indeed not very suitable for hot pot dipping sauce.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was great. The three insect-type brothers were very satisfied with the quality and taste of the meal, so much so that when Abi offered them nutritional drinks, they all looked like they were about to die.

Zhu Suihan, resting his chin on his hand, instantly understood: that so-called nutritional drink was just a fancy name; its actual taste was probably about the same as traditional Chinese medicine or herbal tea.

"Would you like to try it? If you can tell me the general production process, I can make a version that suits your needs."

"Ugh!"

Lapras refused sternly. For a Pokémon that prefers sweets, spicy food is simply something it can't handle.

But bitterness is different.

I don't want to touch it at all!

After the meal, Zhu Suihan and Abi went to Officer Jenny's office area. The latter was carrying a bag and looked like she was questioning the meaning of life.

Inside were the thirty badminton shuttlecocks that Zhu Suihan had given him.

"I bet a bottle of delicious soda that everyone else's research is different from yours. How can anyone succeed so quickly? This is just too exaggerated."

"You don't understand, I was just lucky."

Zhu Suihan said, "If I'm lucky, the ideas that flash into my mind are often correct, so I just need to keep getting closer to the answer on the right path."

A-Bi suddenly had a whimsical thought: "Hey, what if you meet a girl in the future who takes all your luck to meet? Won't your luck just drop back to normal?"

Bamboo Suihan:

"We've arrived. By the way, as the gym leader, you should set an example by being self-disciplined and improving yourself, and watch less weird TV dramas."

Inside the office, Miss Officer Jenny looked at the two brilliant minds with a puzzled expression.

"Does Mr. Zhu Suihan mean that he intends to help us deal with the problem of Pokémon being affected by the Dark Balls?"

"To be precise, no, I just have one solution."

As the saying goes, corporal punishment is undesirable, but the tactic of using both a stick and a carrot has been overused and remains a popular trick.

Zhu Suihan said, "In short, I'll help you deal with the most difficult one, and then while I'm 'torturing' him, Miss Joey will come over to give him some moral education and loving guidance."

"I think the effect would be even better."

Officer Jenny was somewhat tempted, after all, given her status, there were certain things she couldn't do herself, but Zhu Suihan was different.

This is a kind-hearted person in society.

Then we can make a few minor changes to the report and write that the Pokémon was captured with the help of Zhu Suihan, and we can get away with the injury report.

However, all of this was done to close the case; otherwise, Officer Jenny would never have resorted to such underhanded tactics.

The minor characters may be stubborn and refuse to speak, but that doesn't mean they're completely awake, or rather, the Pokémon whose minds were imprinted with the Dark Ball's ideology have dissipated won't speak.

"I suggest you choose the one most likely to have the intelligence, because my method is quite resource-intensive, and there are currently no backups."

Officer Jenny nodded and led Zhu Suihan and Abi to the place of imprisonment.

"Originally, we could have just locked them in Poké Balls, but due to the influence of the Dark Ball, we have to bring these children, who are already close to going berserk, back to their senses."

"Joey is still here. I'm counting on you guys from now on."

I'll try my best.

Zhu Suihan had never seen such a case of using technology to tamper with one's mind before. All he could say was that he hoped the sticky ball would be powerful enough to give Miss Joey the opportunity to use her skills.

Zhu Suihan carefully took out a few sticky balls from the incense burner, a move that left Abi completely bewildered.

"What is this?"

"The second research finding is currently in the cost reduction phase."

"Nido!"

As soon as they entered the "detention cell," roars filled their ears, proving that Officer Jenny's territory was indeed well-insulated.

Zhu Suihan asked in surprise, "Nidoking? By the way, how did Officer Jenny deal with Nidoking with her Growlithe?"

"Don't underestimate the strength of a gym leader like me. And what are you planning to do?"

Zhu Suihan nodded to Miss Qiao Yi, picked up the sticky ball, and threw it over without hesitation.

"Of course, we'll go straight for it and let King Nido witness the results of my latest research."

*Splat*

Ah Bi, Joey: ?

The sticky ball shattered upon impact with Nidoking, momentarily pausing his ferocious expression. After a brief moment of calm, he resumed his shouting and yelling.

"You stubborn fool, are you challenging my reserves?"

Zhu Suihan threw the sticky pellets again, one of which successfully hit the head.

Abi and Joey went from surprise to shock, because the effect was too good!

Nidoking grew increasingly weak and eventually collapsed to the ground, no longer displaying the demeanor he had shown earlier, standing up and shouting that orcs would never be slaves, even while still bound by chains.
