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

Late that night, in the players' check-in area of ​​the Alliance Building, Lu Yi lay in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

After saying goodbye to Miss Junsha, it was already very late, so Lu Yi simply came back to rest without even eating.

Although tomorrow's game is very important, he still puts more attention on Regice's incident.

Lu Yi thought about it for a long time. What purpose did Miss Tia want to achieve by choosing to kill during the competition?

Did she really want to kill Reggie Ace, or did she want to take this opportunity to attract more attention, spread the news quickly, and make the whole world pay attention to her feud with Reggie Ace?

Lu Yi turned over in bed, bent his right arm into an angle and placed it under his head, but his thoughts could not stop.

He closed his eyes, carefully considered the possibility of this inference, and ultimately denied himself.

To be honest, Lu Yi had almost confirmed this idea before, because tens of thousands of people were paying attention to this attack, which was very beneficial to Miss Tia.

Not only could she use the voice of public opinion to force the alliance to restart the investigation and make Reggies pay the price he deserved, but she also avoided the death penalty for killing someone in public, and ultimately achieved the same revenge purpose with lighter charges such as "intentional injury" or "attempted murder."

However, this seemingly smooth inference becomes very contradictory when combined with Miss Tia's transcript. The attitude she showed in the transcript was that she just wanted to take revenge as soon as possible, without any deeper considerations.

Moreover, she had just confirmed Reggie Ace's identity in the previous two rounds of collision. Thinking of such a far-reaching layout, using the sticky net to relax the opponent's vigilance, using the audience's public opinion to create hot spots, etc., the possibility is too low.

That's why Lu Yi tossed and turned in sleep, unable to figure out the details.

He tried many different angles and overturned all his conclusions one by one. If he went one step further, he would start to doubt the accident records of the Hoenn Alliance! Otherwise, there would be nothing to question!

"Hey……"

Lu Yi changed his lying position on the bed, then frowned and let out a long sigh.

Starting from the consequences of this incident and working backwards, he still couldn't figure out what benefits Miss Tia could get.

Even if she doesn't do it herself, and instead chooses to report to the organizing committee after or even during the game, wouldn't it still be able to achieve the effect of investigating Reggie Ace?

Also, what did that smile that caused my right eyelid to twitch mean?

Lu Yi was so annoyed that he was about to die. It was almost dawn, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.

There are more reasonable aspects than contradictory aspects in this incident, which makes it really hard to figure out.

But Lu Yi always believed that Miss Tia's seemingly impulsive act of murder must hide some unknown intention!

……

4 hours later, on the morning of September 9, the Kanto League Conference semi-finals took place.

Lu Yi, Yinchuan, Lan Zi and Di Mu, the four players hailed as the favorites to win the championship before the game, are now standing in the player channel as expected.

They chatted and laughed, waiting for the host's command. Next, they will complete the contestant entrance ceremony of this conference amid the cheers of tens of thousands of spectators.

"Aiko, is Reggie Ace okay?"

Lu Yi walked over to Lan Zi, concerned about his situation.

The latter looked very calm and nodded with a smile.

"Well, thank you for your concern. Miss Joy said that it will be discharged from the hospital soon, but it's a pity that it can't attend today's game."

Hearing this, Lu Yi was happy for him, and at the same time, he became more resolute in his previous idea and would not send Arcanine in this game to express his desire for a fair fight.

Soon, the host finished his passionate opening remarks and was about to invite the four contestants to take the stage in an orderly manner.

Di Mu tilted his neck left and right, making a few bone cracking sounds, and then stepped forward with full fighting spirit!

He was the first contestant to enter the arena. Several streams of white mist suddenly spurted out from around the main fighting arena. That was the common liquid nitrogen or dry ice, creating a very imposing entrance atmosphere!

The host introduced his past experience and interacted with the audience to boost his momentum. The whole venue was instantly filled with people, and the audience's emotions were aroused!

Then, the host called Lan Zi's name. Lan Zi took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and responded to the shouts and concerns of tens of thousands of viewers!

Everyone knows what he went through yesterday, so their support for him is even greater than before! In contrast, Lu Yi did nothing wrong, but was caught in the crossfire and became the biggest beneficiary of the attack on Reggie Ace! Now he is being criticized by tens of thousands of people!

After a while, the third player to enter was Yinchuan.

This kid is now extremely excited, and keeps rubbing his hands together, as if he wants to have a good competition with Senior Brother Dimu!

As he took his place on the stage, Lu Yi stood in the middle of the contestant channel. But the next second, an inexplicable sense of panic surged into his heart, and his right eyelid also vibrated violently again without any surprise!

【Um! ? 】

Lu Yi was shocked and his eyes widened instantly! This premonition of disaster was too strong! He even felt a tingling sensation on the spiritual level!

Something big is definitely going to happen! Is it during the opening ceremony of the semi-finals of the league conference? ?

Before he knew it, the host had already called out Lu Yi's name.

He didn't have time to think about it, and he couldn't leave tens of thousands of people out in the cold because of his hesitation! So Lu Yi walked into the venue, forcing a smile and responding to the shouts and cheers of the audience!

He waved and looked around, seemingly taking the perspective of the entire audience into consideration, but in fact he was secretly observing the suspicious situation in the venue!

However, the scene that shocked him the most happened after he stood side by side with the other three.

Lu Yi originally wanted to stand closer to Yinchuan so that he could discuss the matter secretly. However, he caught a glimpse of Lan Zi behind Yinchuan from the corner of his eye, and his [Danger Sense] was instantly triggered!

The "victim" who had just looked calm, now had a completely different look! He was filled with murderous intent! He even glanced at Lu Yi obscurely, with a sinister smile on his face as if he had succeeded in his evil plan! !

“You,…it’s you!!”

Lu Yi immediately noticed his weirdness, and at this moment he didn't care about the process and order of the meeting! He reached out to touch his companions' Poké Balls, and at the same time stepped on the sole of his foot, and the Dieboard was immediately ready for battle!

But Lan Zi is the one who has a plan in place and holds the initiative!

He put his right hand into his arms, and what he took out was not a Poké Ball or a lethal weapon, but a portable gas mask!

Seeing this scene, Lu Yi was extremely surprised, but it was too late to react now!

“Shh…!!”

The jet devices around the ring were turned on at full power, and the atmosphere on the scene had already reached its highest point due to the presence of these four players!

However, the jet device that was originally in good order and no different was now spraying not dry ice but poisonous gas full of pungent smell!

What was even more terrifying was that the poisonous gas was spraying more and more violently, and it couldn't be stopped at all! It spread in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye! !
