Pokémon: I'm a detective, not the sixth one.

Lu Yi spent another whole day in Yuejian Mountain.

After saying goodbye to the Pippi tribe, he was pulled directly to the fruit tree by the Kati dog and discovered the very inconspicuous special mark.

Like Kati Dog's first reaction, the boy also thought that this might be a distress signal from other adventurers, so he searched nearby for a long time!

He asked wild elves everywhere whether they had seen any humans other than him recently, but the replies he received had nothing to do with this mark.

Lu Yi and Katigou asked the elves about several dangerous situations, which were all pitted swamps or low-lying rock cliffs, but they found no trace of anyone being in danger.

After checking around to make sure everything was fine, Lu Yi carefully took photos and saved the mark. Maybe in the future he could meet an expert who knows about wild markings and get more information from them.

Lu Yi gained a lot from this trip to Yuejian Mountain.

Not only did he subdue a mid-level ordinary-level Pippi, but he also received a justice point reward for standing up for himself!

However, Lu Yi was a little unhappy at this time.

In his heart, he not only felt remorse for the changes that happened to the Pippi tribe, but also had a trace of regret.

Even if An Qi's true face is difficult for him to accept, the two of them are still friends who have traveled together for many days.

They solved the bosozoku problem together, trained together, camped together, and cheered and encouraged each other's progress.

Angel once marveled at Lu Yi when he used a few thin wires as a saw to cut through thick wood; she also praised the boy's intelligence when he used vines to tie stones and sticks together to serve as an ax or hammer.

Now that they have parted ways, the two of them have not even said a basic "goodbye".

Lu Yi felt that what he did was not good enough. If he could make An Qi wait for him for a while, let the anger in his heart calm down first, and then slowly communicate with An Qi afterwards, maybe the two of them would still be friends now.

Moreover, An Qi's behavior was probably influenced by her elders, and Lu Yi regretted that he could not guide her on the right track.

If a girl continues to maintain this kind of thinking habit, she will definitely go further and further in the future, and eventually it will be easy for her to fall into the abyss of excessive pursuit of elf power like those villains.

Lu Yi blamed himself very much. He clearly had the opportunity to help An Qi get rid of her bad habits.

At this moment, walking on the mountain path, Lu Yi unconsciously speeded up his pace, intending to catch up with An Qi's progress in Hualan City.

However, when he walked into the Hualan Gym exhausted, thinking that he could reunite with An Qi here, the guard told him bad news.

"A girl with short purple hair? About the same age as you??"

"I've never seen it... Our Hualan Gym is run by the famous 'Four Beautiful Girls'. Most of the trainers who come here to challenge us are men."

"Take the past month as an example. I can tell you responsibly that all the challengers are boys! Because I am here every day. I love to see the swimsuits of the four sisters... ah no, I love to see the four sisters the most. It’s a battle!”

Hearing the answer from the guard, Lu Yi frowned, confused.

An Qi's goal has always been Hualan City, and this is also the direction she left. Why has she not come to challenge the gym now?

Did I misremember her itinerary, or did she encounter some trouble along the way?

Lu Yi thanked the eldest doorman, and then walked towards the Elf Center in Hualan City while thinking.

He gradually had bad thoughts, but he quickly forced himself not to speculate on others like this.

The idea is that An Qi may not have stayed away from Yuejian Mountain, but waited until it was confirmed that she was going to set off, and then returned to re-test whether the Pippi clan had any fish that slipped through the net!

Lu Yi patted his forehead, not wanting to think about it any more.

Even if An Qi left a bad impression on him, it wouldn't be so bad, right?

Pushing open the door of the elf center, Lu Yi handed Kati Dog and Pippi's elf balls to Miss Joy.

The latter immediately checked the physical condition of the elves through the instrument, and asked the auspicious egg next to him to use "Life Drops" + "Healing Ringtone" to help the two elves relieve the fatigue of the journey.

It didn't take long for the two elves to return to Lu Yi, looking full of energy.

Lu Yi thanked Miss Joy, and then saw that there were no other trainers lining up nearby, so he casually chatted with Miss Joy.

"Thank you for your hard work. Have you seen a girl with short purple hair in the past two days? She is nearly 1.7 meters tall and about the same age as me."

Hearing this, Miss Joy looked a little surprised.

"Eh? I've seen it before! Our nursing team had a long chat yesterday. That girl has such a nice temperament and is pretty!"

Lu Yi was planning to leave, but when he heard the other party's reply, his eyes widened instantly.

"Have you seen her before? Do you know which direction she went?"

Miss Joy blinked and looked Lu Yi up and down.

"This involves people's privacy. I can't confirm the relationship between you, so I can't answer you right away."

After hearing this, Lu Yi understood that this was to protect the safety of the girl traveling alone, so he asked Rotom to show Miss Joy some photos. Although there were no photos of the two of them facing each other, they also recorded some of the hard work of training together. moment.

"We came together through the Moon Mountain, but got separated for some reasons on the way. I didn't have time to say goodbye to her."

Miss Joy looked at the photo and finally felt relieved about Lu Yi.

"I see, your traveling companion! But that girl should have left Cerulean City by boat by now. When she came to the Elf Center yesterday, she specifically asked me where the dock is."

"Huh? Pier?"

Lu Yi was stunned. He never expected that An Qi would leave Hualan City directly!

No wonder the guard brother said he had never seen her before. It turned out that this girl gave up the challenge of Hualan Gym!

Although Lu Yi was very confused at the moment, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

An Qi is not as bad as she thought at all. On the contrary, she is quite free and easy-going in character!

Thinking back carefully, An Qi never actually said that she wanted to challenge the Cerulean Gym. Even the mother-in-law who stayed at the B&B claimed that their goals were both in Cerulean City, so she suggested that they go together.

But where will this girl go? Was it because his words were too exciting that he hurt her unconsciously?

Lu Yi felt deeply guilty. Maybe An Qi just left Hualan City because she didn't want to see him again.

Seeing his appearance at this moment, Miss Joy pouted with some hatred.

"I tell you, instead of being upset here, you should go and chase her back as soon as possible!"

"If you don't take the initiative as a boy, are you going to watch her pass by?!"

"Huh?" Hearing this, Lu Yi looked at Joey blankly.

The other party seemed to have misunderstood something and mistook them for an quarrelsome young couple in adolescence.

"What are you talking about... I'll take my leave first..." Lu Yi put two elf balls on his waist, curled his lips and left the elf center.

Looking at his hurried away figure, Miss Joy still looked dissatisfied.

"This kid really doesn't listen to advice!"

"Adolescent girls are best coaxed, how can I still lie to you!"
