Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Xia Nantian walked to the desk with steady steps. He leaned over slightly and reached out to pick up the document on the table.

There was a hint of doubt and caution in his eyes, as if he didn't quite believe what was presented in the information.

He held the document in his hand, staring at the words on it, reading it over and over again in disbelief, as if he wanted to find some clues between the lines that could solve his puzzle.

Finally, he raised his head, glanced at Lu Wusong, and spoke slowly.

"Are you sure that what you wrote in the report is what really happened in that guy's memory?"

There was a hint of doubt in Lu Wusong's tone and his brows were slightly furrowed. It was obvious that he had great doubts about the authenticity of these contents.

"I'm not Liu Yu, I won't joke about this kind of thing."

Lu Wusong had a serious expression and looked at Xia Nantian with firm eyes. His voice was low and powerful, revealing an attitude that could not be questioned.

He was well aware of the importance of this report and the seriousness of the memories he had obtained, so he had to make Xia Nantian understand this.

Liu Yu, who was standing next to him, was confused when he heard Lu Wusong's words, and several question marks popped up over his head:

"???"

"Can you keep your bad words about me secret from others?!"

Liu Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes, put his hands on his hips, and complained in a pretended angry tone.

Her voice rose a few notches, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes, but also a hint of intimate anger. After all, she and Lu Wusong had a close relationship on a daily basis.

"I don't like to talk bad about people behind their backs."

Lu Wusong responded silently with a calm expression.

His expression remained calm, as if he was just stating a fact, and there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, just like his usual personality, calm and direct.

"So you said bad things about me to my face!!"

When Liu Yu heard this, his eyes widened and he got angry on the spot.

Her cheeks flushed slightly, as if she was angry, and as if she was feeling a little amused or helpless because of Lu Wusong's straightforward answer.

She took a step forward, pointed at Lu Wusong, and raised her voice an octave, "Why are you like this?"

The office couldn't help but become more lively because of the interaction between the two.

The originally tense and depressing atmosphere was broken in an instant, and others couldn't help but be amused by them. Some laughed softly, while others looked at them with interest, as if they were watching a funny little farce.

Xia Nantian looked at Liu Yu and Lu Wusong who were bickering, and couldn't help but smile. The smile on his face was a bit helpless and doting, as if he was looking at two naughty children.

He shook his head slightly, with a brief hint of relief in his eyes. After all, in this tense working atmosphere, such a small episode can make people relax a little.

However, when his eyes fell on the stack of information again, the smile disappeared instantly, replaced by a look of deep worry and an unusual headache.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes revealed solemnity and confusion.

"Snapped."

Xia Nantian casually threw the documents heavily on the desk, making a dull sound.

He sighed irritably, put his hands on his hips, and leaned back slightly, as if trying to relieve the pressure in his heart.

"According to the information obtained by Lu Wusong, this Ice Wing seems to come from another parallel world. And that world has been completely destroyed by the attack of the Ultimate Beasts."

His voice was low and serious, and every word seemed to carry a heavy weight.

He looked at the information again, as if he could see through the paper into a parallel world full of disaster and despair.

The news was too shocking and too heavy, making him feel immense pressure and responsibility.

After hearing Xia Nantian's words, everyone couldn't help but gasp. The cold air seemed to condense in their throats in an instant, causing their breathing to stagnate.

Everyone's face involuntarily revealed a look of shock, their eyes slightly widened, and their pupils were full of disbelief and deep worry.

This shock was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, which instantly broke the original tranquility and made the whole atmosphere tense and depressing.

Liu Yu was the first to break the suffocating silence. She frowned slightly, her eyes revealing thoughts and doubts. She slowly said:

"But even if the Ultimate Hole appears all over the world, it shouldn't lead to the fall of the world."

She paused and continued to explain.

"After all, in front of high-end combat power like ours, no matter how powerful the Ultimate Beasts are, they can only be used as super soldiers."

There was a hint of confidence in her tone. As a member of a powerful group, she was well aware of her own and her companions' abilities, but at the same time, she knew that things would never be that simple, and her doubts grew deeper and deeper.

But the problem is...

"That pitch-black Pokémon, well, I'm not sure if it's a Pokémon or an Ultra Beast, but it's called Necrozma, right?"

Lu Wusong tried hard to recall, his eyes revealing a thoughtful gleam, as if he was replaying the scenes obtained from Bingyi's memory in his mind.

"Our world has also experienced more than one invasion of Ultra Beasts, but we dealt with them all before the situation became serious. If that's the case, there's no reason why we in the parallel world can't do the same."

He spoke at a steady pace, analyzing and explaining his ideas, trying to find some clues and patterns from the known information.

"But the Necrozma in Ice Wing's memory is too powerful. So powerful that we in that world are no match for him."

At this point, a trace of worry and uneasiness flashed in his eyes.

"If Necrozma is also in our world, will we..."

There was a tense and uneasy atmosphere in the air, as if everyone could feel the huge potential threat, like a dark cloud hanging over their hearts, making it hard to breathe.

Lu Wusong suddenly stopped talking, turned his gaze to Ruan Tianli, with a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes, and then slowly said:

"By the way, you are not one of the Four Heavenly Kings in that world's China."

His tone was calm, yet it seemed to carry a hint of deep meaning, making the whole atmosphere somewhat subtle.

"Ah I?"

Ruan Tianli was slightly stunned, with an expression of surprise on his face. He subconsciously pointed at himself silently, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.

His eyes were full of confusion and curiosity as he waited for Lu Wusong's further explanation.

"Yes, it is better to say that there is no such person as Ruan Tianli in that world, or Ruan Tianli did not become one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Instead, Lin Guochang of that world became one of the Four Heavenly Kings."

Lu Wusong elaborated in detail, his expression serious, as he recalled the information in Bingyi's memory while explaining the situation to everyone.

"Lin Guochang? Indeed, with his strength, it is not surprising that he became one of the Four Heavenly Kings."

Xia Nantian nodded slightly and spoke thoughtfully.

There was also a hint of doubt in his eyes, and at the same time he looked at Ruan Tianli, as if he was thinking about the differences and possible impacts.

Xia Nantian glanced around the office, frowned slightly, and asked directly.

"Also, where is Lin Guochang?"
