"Sorry, I'm a Team Rocket executive!"

Chapter 89 "Sorry, I'm a Team Rocket executive!"

"Six hundred and sixty-six! You're not even going to act anymore, are you?"

"I'm asking questions not because I have a problem, but because I think you have a problem."

"I'll accept finding the hidden passage behind the poster! But what the hell do you mean by just pulling out your Team Rocket ID card and swiping it open?!"

"Given: 1. This is Team Rocket's base. 2. Mr. Salty has a base access card. Conclusion: Mr. Salty is actually a high-ranking member of Team Rocket?!"

"Excuse me, I'm a Rockets executive!"

The screen was flooded with question marks.

Along with them, Little Red and Little Blue in the game also turned around and looked at Little White, who had just put his identity card back into his backpack.

"Hey—Little Blue, it's one thing to doubt me, but Crimson, what's the meaning of your view of me?"

Bai Zhou felt a little uneasy under that gaze and said irritably:

"You have an identity card too? Do you remember the Golden Pearl Bridge in Cerulean City?"

"Oh! Right!"

Red suddenly realized what was going on and hurriedly manipulated Little Red to rummage through the backpack. Sure enough, it also found an identity card with the letter R on it very conspicuous.

"—It seems we've probably—maybe—indeed—joined the Rockets?"

Chi Hong's tone was filled with confusion, as if he had realized he was the villain.

"What are you talking about?"

As Bilan listened to their riddle-like conversation, she suddenly felt like she had become the third party who had interfered in someone else's love affair.

She shouldn't be here; she should be under the car.

"What ID card? What Golden Pearl Bridge? What joining Team Rocket?! Explain yourself clearly!!!"

"Attention everyone in the live stream! Look, this is a typical example: someone who doesn't watch the live stream—"

Bai Zhou joked with a smile, but when he saw Xiao Lan in the game silently, step by step, approaching Xiao Bai with a huge sense of oppression, he quickly stopped joking and explained seriously.

"Ahem! After crossing the Goldenrod Bridge in Cerulean City, a Team Rocket NPC will invite you to join their team. If you choose to accept..."

Then you can get this identity card.

"Why didn't you say so earlier! All this mystery—"

Azure breathed a sigh of relief, then muttered softly, a little guilty.

"I definitely watched your live stream—it's just—it's just that I accidentally—stopped watching for a little while later—"

"Huh? What did you say?"

Bai Zhou didn't hear the second half of the sentence clearly.

"Nothing! Idiot! Blockhead! Humph!"

Azure instantly bristled, venting her anger on the innocent words.

Bai Zhou scratched his head blankly, completely baffled as to what had touched a nerve with this young woman.

"Holy crap! So that's what was waiting for me! Does that mean I couldn't trigger this storyline if I hadn't joined before?"

"This is incredible! The first condition for the hidden storyline in Rainbow City is actually triggered in Cerulean City. You've hidden this way too much!"

"I've lived a life of good deeds and integrity, yet I missed out on joining the Rockets because I accidentally clicked 'refuse to join'?! It hurts! It hurts so much!"

"'If I agree to join the Rockets, do I really join the Rockets?' — A classic quote from Teacher Xianyu. Answer: Yes, you do!"

"I followed the live stream guides all the way through, and it felt great. I'm ready to take off."

Bai Zhou's explanation not only failed to quell the barrage of comments, but instead added fuel to the fire.

Ignoring the comments, the three prepared to step into the passage.

At that moment, two figures appeared silently, like ghosts, blocking the entrance.

It was that handsome researcher and the mysterious girl who had previously swindled Crimson out of all her wealth.

But the mysterious girl at this moment is completely different from her rustic appearance when she was setting up her stall.

She changed into a stylish and beautiful urban girl outfit, radiating youthful energy and looking dazzling.

The most shocking thing is...

Aside from the different outfits, her character model is almost identical to Xiao Lan's!

"Handsome Researcher: Stop right there! You wretched Team Rocket members! I'll get you right now!"

"Handsome Researcher: Wait! It's you guys? You got your hands on the ID cards? Could it be that you're also planning to infiltrate this Team Rocket base to obtain evidence of their illegal genetic experiments? Haha!"

What a coincidence! It's us too!

"Handsome Researcher: By the way, let me formally introduce you. This is Xiao Lan, my partner in this mission."

As soon as the handsome researcher finished speaking, the "little blue NPC" crossed his arms and swept his slightly scrutinizing gaze over the three of them.

Immediately, a bright yet slightly mischievous smile bloomed on her face, and she took the initiative to start a conversation.

"Little Blue: Oh, it's you guys! Looks like your wallet's recovering pretty quickly? In that case, let's team up!"

"Little Blue: You have ID cards, which makes it easier for you to infiltrate and steal core intelligence. We'll be outside to provide backup and keep watch, ensuring your safety!"

"Little Blue: Hey! What kind of look is that! Don't worry~ This time I absolutely, absolutely won't trick you guys again! I promise!"

"Little Blue: After it's all done, you can exchange the important information you get for some real benefits with the guy next to me—it's a sure thing!"

"Little Blue: Okay! It's settled then! We'll wait for your good news next to that slot machine over there!"

After saying that, she didn't give the handsome researcher a chance to speak again.

He grabbed the sleeve of his white lab coat and, despite the handsome researcher's protests, dragged him towards the distant slot machine area without a word. "Wow!!!"

Azure's exclamation instantly exploded on the communication channel, filled with pure joy.

"So beautiful! So stylish! Did you buy this outfit from a fashion boutique? My taste in the game is amazing!"

"That's not the point at all!"

Bai Zhou looked at the completely off-tracking blue and reminded it with a wry smile:

"Little Blue, wake up!"

"Okay, okay!"

Azure gave a perfunctory reply, her eyes still fixed on the direction where the little blue NPC had disappeared.

"Let's go, let's go inside and take a look."

The three entered the passage and arrived at level -1.

Suddenly, everything became clear.

The clean and tidy corridor was brightly lit by incandescent lights. The walls had a cold metallic luster and were connected by several heavy alloy doors. As soon as you stepped out of the stairwell, two guards with wary expressions appeared at the corner of the corridor.

Guard A: Halt! Password! Who are you?! Why aren't you in uniform?!

Guard B: Identification! Show me your identification immediately! Otherwise, you will be treated as an intruder!

Guardian B placed his hand on the Poké Ball at his waist, watching the three warily.

The atmosphere instantly became tense!

"Red, show them your ID first."

Bai Zhou reminded Chi Hong and controlled Xiao Bai to take out the identification.

"Xiao Bai: We're new here, we just reported for duty today. The logistics department said the uniforms haven't been issued yet, and the guy behind us hasn't finished his paperwork or received his ID."

Guard A took the ID cards handed to him by Xiaobai and Xiaochi and inserted them into the portable card reader in his hand.

The screen flickered a few times, displaying the two people's basic information.

He checked the system records several times to make sure they were correct, and then returned the cards to the two people.

But his gaze remained sharply fixed on Xiao Lan, and he did not let her pass.

Guard B quickly turned around and slipped into the room next door.
