I have a super illustrated book of elves

Chapter 40 The Shadow of the Underground Casino

After tidying up the messy training ground, the members of the club began happily planning a celebration in the afternoon.

As for Li Xiaoyao, he was sitting on a long bench, with Dan Boss and Dan Lao Er leaning beside him.

In his hand, he held a book.

The title of the book is Pikachu, the God of Wisdom, and it is a novel in this world.

When Li Xiaoyao first came into contact with the novels of this world, he was still at a loss, but after reading this "Wisdom Pikachu", he seemed to have found some familiar flavors.

Still the familiar taste, familiar formula.

Can't help but recall the old times.

When he first came into contact with Pokémon, it was a cartoon he watched on TV when he was a child.

When he saw various Pokémon fighting, he became deeply fascinated by Pokémon.

Li Xiaoyao turned a page, gnawed his finger, and read the story inside.

"Hmph, it's really interesting. I didn't expect novels to be so interesting." Li Xiaoyao read it with relish, and didn't even notice that someone was walking towards him.

"Hey, brother." A fat boy patted Li Xiaoyao's shoulder.

Li Xiaoyao was startled first, then slowly raised his head and looked at the fat boy.

"What's wrong?" Li Xiaoyao looked at the fat boy's face and suddenly felt as if he had forgotten something important.

"Hey, this is the money you won from betting, and it's all for you." The fat boy took out a black money bag from behind and handed it to Li Xiaoyao.

"Don't worry, I'm an upright person, I'm never greedy for petty gains, and every penny in it is worth a penny." The fat boy patted his chest confidently.

But Li Xiaoyao wasn't worried that the fat boy gave him too much money, but he was worried that if he won so much money, he would be jealous and attract hatred.

"Can I really accept it?" Li Xiaoyao took the money bag, but he dared not open it.

It's not that he didn't dare to accept the money, but he was worried about his future life at the club.

In case anyone is unconvinced and revenges him behind the scenes, it's hard to say.

People are unpredictable these days.

"Don't worry, you can accept this money with peace of mind. This is the money you won yourself." The fat boy also saw Li Xiaoyao's anxiety at a glance, and said confidently.

"As the saying goes, if you win, you lose. Most people play this bet just for fun, and don't care too much about the money that is exported."

"Besides, they don't inquire about my name, Shi Xiaoming, and my dad is a platinum gambler who has been in the casino. The mayor will be courteous when he sees my dad, and dare to play big cards in front of me. They don't have the qualifications , so, you can rest assured to accept this money." The fat boy said to himself.

Li Xiaoyao was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and then nodded slowly.

Although he was a little dazed, he seemed to be able to tell from his tone how powerful this fat boy Shi Xiaoming was.

He took out a few [-] Union currency notes from his wallet, and reached out to hand them to Shi Xiaoming.

"Accept it, it's your hard work." Li Xiaoyao also understands human nature. Shi Xiaoming is so kind to him, so naturally his benefits are indispensable.

"No, brother, you don't have to be so polite." Shi Xiaoming waved his hand.

"Take it, you can also buy a few packs of cigarettes." Li Xiaoyao replied.

Shi Xiaoming looked at the money that Li Xiaoyao handed over again, but he was far away, as if he would be eaten by the money if he took it.

"Brother, you really don't have to be polite, actually..." Shi Xiaoming stammered.

"Actually what?" Li Xiaoyao was startled, probably because this guy thinks he has little money.

"Brother, can I worship you as my teacher?" Shi Xiaoming suddenly knelt down and kowtowed quickly.

Before Li Xiaoyao could stop him, Shi Xiaoming's head was already buried in the ground.

"It really doesn't have to be like this." Li Xiaoyao didn't have the guts to accept this obeisance.

"No, I'm not joking, I'm sincerely studying," Shi Xiaoming said firmly, "As long as you promise, I'm willing to go down the mountain of swords and fire for Master!"

"Okay, okay, I'll accept you as an apprentice, get up quickly, I don't have the good fortune to be worshiped by you." Li Xiaoyao quickly helped Shi Xiaoming up.

Originally Li Xiaoyao wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he had a bold idea.

I happen to have no money to cultivate Pokémon, no money to make mega bracelets, no money to buy tree fruits.

And the father of Shi Xiaoming in front of him happens to be the God of Gamblers in Platinum City. With his ability as the No. [-] stockbroker in his previous life and the funds of the God of Gamblers, he will definitely be able to make waves in the entire stock industry.

But this idea is too absurd after all, who would believe that a high school student can speculate in stocks?
But the Shi Xiaoming in front of him can just be used as an intermediary point, becoming a link between him and the Platinum God of Gamblers.

"Really?" A smile gradually appeared on Shi Xiaoming's face.

It seems that the master he worshiped was not a high school student, but a professional trainer.

"Really, I'm not lying to you." Li Xiaoyao said lightly.

"Master, if you need anything from me in the future, or if you don't understand anything in the club, you can ask me, I am familiar with this place." Shi Xiaoming said cheerfully.

"Of course, if you have any difficulties in Platinum City, you can also come to me. My dad is considered a quack in Platinum City, and has some power."

"Thank you then." Li Xiaoyao nodded.

"Should be, disciples should do."

After chatting with Shi Xiaoming for a while, Li Xiaoyao unexpectedly got a very exciting news.

That's the thing about Shadow Pokémon.

"You mean Shadow Pokémon?" When talking about Shadow Pokémon, Li Xiaoyao immediately recalled the matter of Sister Xue and Mashaduo.

"That's right, I saw a shadow Pokémon in an underground casino two months ago." Shi Xiaoming said firmly.

"Are you sure you read it right?" Li Xiaoyao asked.

"At that time, I was in the dark room, and I thought about turning on the light to illuminate the room, but after the light was turned on, there was a black shadow in a corner that was always on the floor and could not dissipate." Shi Xiaoming said.

"Isn't it normal to have shadows after the lights are turned on?" Li Xiaoyao asked.

"Master, listen to me." Shi Xiaoming made a terrifying gesture and continued, "At that time, the shadow of a stool suddenly moved away and became two, and one of the shadows would still move by itself. move."

Hearing what Shi Xiaoming said, Li Xiaoyao felt like he was haunted.

If it was changed to before, he might say that this is delusional, and he has read too many novels, but it is different now.

This is the world of Pokémon, and anything illogical is possible.

"How are you sure it's a Shadow Pokémon?"

Li Xiaoyao was curious about how Shi Xiaoming was sure that the shadow was not a prank made by other ghost-type Pokémon, but a shadow Pokémon.

"I'm sure, at that time my little wood spirit, that is, my Pokémon, was also beside me. At that time, it immediately rushed towards the shadow. After the shadow disappeared, I asked the little wood spirit what happened. Tell me it's a Pokémon, a Pokémon that lives in the shadows."

"The shadow was about this big at that time." Shi Xiaoming was talking, and he even drew a circle on his hand, and the size of the circle was about half a meter.

Suddenly, Li Xiaoyao fell into deep thought.

Just listening to what Shi Xiaoming said, this shadow Pokémon is indeed somewhat similar to Marshado.

But judging from the current information alone, he can't be 100% sure that the Pokémon that the senior sister met is the same Pokémon, and he doesn't know whether the shadow Pokémon is Mashado.

"Is there anything special about that Shadow Pokémon, such as eyes?" Li Xiaoyao asked.

"Yes, eyes, when the little wood spirit chased away that strange shadow, I saw a pair of red eyes!" Shi Xiaoming exclaimed.

"Red eyes." After hearing this answer, Li Xiaoyao already had the answer in his heart.

Living in the shadow, about half a meter tall, red eyes, these answers all point to the magic Pokémon that is rarer than the rare Pokémon-Mashado.
