Chapter 38
The Heartless Little Cotton-padded Jacket
With Lao Deng's words, Xia Mu finally understood why Ju Laoda had been targeting him.
"ε=(´ο`*))) Sigh!"
Xia Mu sighed heavily.
"Then you're doomed. This guy has a crush on me, and he might come back with a baby anytime..."
"No!!!"
Perhaps it was Xia Mu's words that were so infectious.
It's also possible that what Xia Mu said touched on the scene that Kiku-sama feared most.
Just moments ago, Boss Ju had been standing with his hands on his hips, but now he knelt on the ground and roared to the sky.
"No, I won't accept it!"
"Well, there's nothing I can do about it, since I'm definitely the one who's being forced into this situation..."
Before Xia Mu could finish speaking...
With her face flushed, Ziyu rushed up to Xia Mu and Boss Ju.
"What nonsense are you two spouting?!"
Originally, I was worried that Natsuki might be harassed by his father because of what happened at the dojo.
result.
Purple Taro never expected this.
I rushed back to the dojo.
As soon as the door opened.
Then these two started cricketing.
They don't even carry people on their backs anymore!
but.
Ziyu felt that the most important thing now was to explain things clearly.
"We're not what you think at all!"
"You're being a little more restrained in your thinking!"
"I didn't have that kind of thought!"
"The specific ideas won't pass the review!"
"Natsuki!"
"Why!"
"Shut up!"
"Okay!"
Xia Mu's behavior of constantly fanning the flames, despite being a party involved, angered Zi Yu.
With Xia Mu shut up and Zi Yu taking control of the situation, she continued to explain everything.
after that.
Boss Ju finally snapped out of his terrifying fantasy.
Or.
I was sobered up by the fright.
after all.
For someone like Ju Laoda who is obsessed with his daughter.
What? My precious daughter ran away with that blond guy.
She went home heavily pregnant.
But he scolded himself.
Therefore, he ran away from home.
She struggled to raise her child alone after giving birth.
Overwork led to illness.
The scenario of meeting again only to find that the two people have passed away is simply too cruel.
and so.
Accompanied by cries of "No!"
Once he regained consciousness, Boss Ju finally calmed down as he looked around at his familiar surroundings.
"Whoosh!"
"Thank goodness, thank goodness it's fake..."
After taking two deep breaths, Boss Ju's expression froze as he looked at Xia Mu and Zi Yu surrounding him.
"Did I just shout that out loud?!"
"Hmm!" x2
Unlike Xia Mu, who seemed somewhat gloating, Zi Yu looked very worried.
"You were spacing out the whole time, and then you suddenly screamed! You scared me to death!"
Patting her chest, Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at her father, who had returned to normal.
At this time.
In a corner not far away.
The dragon crept stealthily.
Nothing that just happened escaped her eyes, as a bystander.
She saw that Elder Ju was trapped in a hallucination.
We also saw a contrasting side to the usually stern and cold-hearted Boss Ju.
even.
She also saw the culprit who had caused Boss Ju to fall into the illusion.
A Mismagius, which had appeared here at some unknown time, was chanting a spell. After Kiku woke up, it secretly chuckled and crawled into its Poké Ball.
"Glug!"
He swallowed hard.
Wanlong never expected this.
Originally, I was just a bystander.
It's unbelievable that I could be so badly let down by my own Pokémon.
Once the truth is discovered by the gang leader, Ju Laoda.
I'm afraid I'll...
Thinking of these things, Wanlong's movements became even slower.
They were afraid that making any noise would attract the attention of the others.
at this time.
Even the slightest rustling sound between his pantyhose when he lifted his foot would make Wanlong's heart tighten.
Tip your hands.
tiptoe.
Gently.
Don't draw attention to yourself.
Just as the dragon was approaching the gate to the battlefield, about to leave this threatening arena.
Snapped!
"Eeeeeeeah!!"
This moment.
Even though it had been scared by its own Ghost-type Pokémon since it was a child, and its threshold for fear was quite high, the Winged Dragon couldn't help but let out a cute cry.
If it weren't for those hands gripping his shoulders tightly, Wanlong would have almost collapsed to the ground.
"Um, it's you... Natsuki, is there something you need?"
"It's nothing!"
Xia Mu scratched the back of his head with his right hand, a very cheerful expression on his face.
"I just suddenly felt like Old Deng was hallucinating, so I wanted to ask you, the ghost expert, about it..."
You ¥%¥……&%&*
Looking at Xia Mu, who was smiling like a sunny and cheerful young man.
At this moment, Wanlong had a thousand words he wanted to say.
but.
Reason prevailed, and Wanlong managed to control himself.
"Haha, you should consult a psychic expert about hallucinations. I'll contact Gadria for you..."
As he spoke, Wanlong tried to leave.
But Xia Mu wouldn't let this scoundrel off so easily.
Xia Mu will not forget.
Just now, when I was being bullied by Old Deng with a high-level Pokémon, this guy was laughing so happily on the side.
You call yourself one of the four kings of the league?
They didn't say a word when they saw a rising star like me being bullied by Old Deng!
Pooh!
I despise you!
Therefore, Xia Mu immediately spoke up:
"Oh dear, what are you saying!"
"Isn't hallucination something Ghost-type Pokémon use to scare people?!"
"Speaking of which, I remember that Pokémon like Mismagius can use spells to make others see terrifying illusions..."
"..."
Wanlong's expression froze instantly.
If you're so good at guessing, why don't you become a detective?!
Is it fun to bully a little girl like me here?!
Answer me!
Look into my eyes!
why?
Tell me why?!
But Xia Mu completely ignored Wanlong's accusing gaze.
"My lord, the criminal Wanlong has been brought here!"
Xia Mu brought the winding dragon to Zi Yu and Ju Lao Da.
Then.
"Tell me quickly, what kind of fantasy did you show Old Deng that almost scared him to tears!"
"Tell me quickly, I want to see it too!"
Xia Mu jumped around.
It vividly demonstrates what it means to be petty and unforgiving, even when you're in the right.
The dead boss of the company, the guilty-hearted Wanlong.
Judging from their expressions.
Xia Mu laughed wildly in his heart.
Hahaha!
This is exactly the scene I wanted.
This is exactly what I want to see!
"..."
Seeing this, Ziyu was utterly speechless.
If I hadn't known that Natsuki had been wronged in the dojo battle just now...
At this point, Ziyu had probably already interrupted the arrogant and complacent Xia Mu.
after all.
When facing Xia Mu, a challenger, her father, who was the gym leader, actually sent out his main Pokémon.
to be frank.
Even Ziyu thought it was going too far.
and.
Just now, Ju Laoda thought of her father holding her hand and saying, "Even if you come back with a big belly, Dad will never give up on you."
At this moment, Ziyu had no intention of stopping Xia Mu at all.
This moment.
The little cotton-padded jacket in pink seems to be turning into a black-hearted cotton-padded jacket.
but.
As the saying goes, arrogance brings trouble.
next moment.
Wanlong finally came up with an idea.
"wrong!"
"If you hadn't provoked Tamamo and gotten beaten up by her, Kiku wouldn't have misunderstood. If you hadn't misunderstood, your gym battle would have gone much better. If the gym battle had gone well, Mismagius wouldn't have come out of its Poké Ball. If Mismagius hadn't come out, Kiku wouldn't have gotten into trouble!"
"You could even say that if you hadn't acted so recklessly, none of this would have happened!"
Or you can't say it.
Wanlong is an excellent novelist.
That's pretty good logic.
and so.
Xia Mu, who had initially held the upper hand, immediately became the target of everyone's criticism.
Seeing the three men eyeing him menacingly, Xia Mu did not hesitate at all.
Strategic retreat!
"I'll definitely be back!"
Xia Mu transformed three steps into one, instantly disappearing from their sight.
