I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

"Oh, the Meteor People, they really exist." Upon hearing the name Meteor People, Mikoli was immediately startled and carefully examined Higana.

Higana also felt a chill run down her spine from Mikoli's gaze.

Although Mikkuri is handsome, his flashy outfit is really outrageous. He gives Higana the impression of a weirdo. Now that she's being stared at by a weirdo, how can she not panic?

"Mickey, has the search warrant been issued?" Daigo asked.

“It’s all settled, but are you sure Big Aster Company really has a problem? If we don’t find anything, I’ll be held responsible,” Mikoli said.

Although the league champions have the right to conduct temporary searches, they cannot use it indiscriminately. If they find something, all is well, but if they don't find anything, Mikkel's privileges will be affected.

If it weren't for Daigo asking, Michael wouldn't have agreed.

"Don't worry, I've already sent people to investigate secretly. We'll only search once we have confirmed the results," Daigo said.

“I only issued the search warrant because I trusted you, but when are you planning to come back as champion?” Mikkel asked.

"Let's wait a little longer. There are a lot of things to take care of at the company. Once things stabilize here, you can resign. I promise I won't bother you," Daigo said.

Xiao Mao and Xi Jiana were completely confused.

What do you mean?

How did it come to the fact that Daigo made Michael the champion?

Gary only knows that Goku and Wallace are best buddies, but looking at Wallace's performance during his time as champion, he really just coasts along. Compared to his responsibilities as champion, Wallace cares more about the Coordination Tournament.

· ·Request flowers·· ·········

It seems that Michael's willingness to become the champion was entirely at Daigo's request.

"Do you need my help this time?" Mikoli asked.

“It would be best if you could help, since all your Pokémon are Water-type,” Daigo said.

“Then I’ll go with you,” Mikoli said.

Daigo smiled slightly and nodded gently.

Xiao Mao felt that something was off.

Who is the champion between you two? A theft has occurred at the Green Ridge Universe Center. It shouldn't be you, Mike, who should be taking action to resolve this.

How come Daigo is the champion now, while you, Mikuri, are just an insignificant person?

It makes it seem like Michael is a puppet champion supported by Daigo.

. .. ....

Then, everyone waited for news in the presidential suite of the hotel and took the opportunity to have lunch.

Around 1 p.m., Kuroda hurriedly entered the room.

Everyone looked at Kuroda, waiting for his report.

"Young Master, we have news. That offshore platform is called Sea Violet. Since its construction, anglers have been prohibited from approaching it. I sent someone to observe it remotely. The Sea Violet platform is very large and could easily be used to build an energy research base."

"According to my investigation, ships depart from Kaina City every day to deliver supplies to the Sea Purple. The amount of supplies is quite large, far exceeding the capacity of a single energy extraction platform."

Kuroda reported all the information he had gathered.

Based on the information reported, the sea violet is not an energy harvesting platform; some unknown experiments are being conducted on it.

"Strange, with the qualifications of the Great Aster Company, it could easily build an energy research base on land. Why build it at sea?" Mikoli asked in confusion.

At its peak, the Great Violet Company could rival the Devon Corporation. Even though it has declined somewhat now, a fallen camel is still bigger than a horse. Whatever the other party wants to do, the Hoenn Alliance's higher-ups will definitely support it.

However, the Great Aster Company cleverly used the guise of an energy harvesting platform to build an energy research base on the platform, which is definitely against the rules.

Because the establishment of an energy research base must meet certain standards and undergo rigorous review, if the other party deliberately concealed this information, then the matter is not ordinary.

405: Project Infiltration into the Sea Purple

"That's why we need to investigate," Daigo said.

"We have a search warrant, can't we just go in and search?" Higana asked, puzzled.

Even though they had a search warrant, the other party acted very strangely and simply forced their way in to search.

Miko stared at Higana with a questioning look.

"Why are you staring at me?" Higana asked, puzzled.

“No, it’s just that I feel you’re a little bit dim-witted,” Mikkel said.

"What! You're not smart at all! I'm very smart!" Higana felt insulted. She was the most outstanding child in the village, otherwise she wouldn't have become the inheritor.

"If you force your way in, do you think the people on the Sea Purple Jasmine don't have a backup plan? The offshore platform they've built is huge. Do you even know where they're conducting their research, '127'?"

"Moreover, the platform can also be used to study seabed samples. If we can't find evidence of their energy research, there's nothing we can do about them. If we alert them, it will be even more difficult to take action."

Mikley is right. After all, we live in a society governed by the rule of law. It's not so easy to take down the Big Violet Company. Even the league champions have to investigate secretly; they can't do it openly.

"I didn't know there were so many rules outside," Higana complained in a low voice, dissatisfied.

Mikoli then realized that Higana had lived in a closed environment since childhood and was unaware of the outside world, so she didn't say much.

"So, what should we do?" Xiao Mao asked.

The main task now is to find illegal research on sea violets. Once we can find evidence, we can forcibly block the area and conduct a search.

"No rush. Let's investigate the specific information in the surrounding area before making a plan. Let's go to Kaina City first, as it's easier to move around there."

After saying that, Daigo led everyone to Senna City and checked into a hotel owned by the Devon Group.

By evening, Kuroda had thoroughly investigated the situation around the Sea Purple Jasmine, including all the routes for communication and transportation to the outside world.

Then, everyone started discussing how to proceed.

"What do you all think of this plan?" Daigo asked.

According to the Sea Violet's transportation route, supplies are replenished once a week. The cargo ships will be transported from Kaina City to the Sea Violet. To enter the Sea Violet, one can impersonate a cargo ship crew member and sneak in. Then, place the detection instrument on the Sea Violet's platform, and it will automatically record the general appearance of the Sea Violet and detect the energy fluctuations emitted from it.

Once Hai Zijin conducts her energy research again, we can conduct a search immediately, giving them no time to cover it up.

Judging from the previous detection of infinite energy, the other party conducted the experiment at night, indicating that they wouldn't dare to do it during the day.

“Sure, I have no objection,” Mikoli said, indicating that there was no problem.

Xiao Mao and Xijiana both nodded in agreement with the plan.

“Now there’s a problem. We need to send someone over. Mikoli and I are definitely not up to the task. The other side always boards the ship to inspect supplies every time they receive them,” Daigo said.

Both Steven and Wallace are champions of the Hoenn League, and people in the Hoenn region know them, especially the people from the Masamune Company, who are very familiar with Steven, after all, he is the son of the president of a rival company.

“We need someone unfamiliar to carry out this mission, and I think you’re perfect for it, Xiao Mao,” Mikoli said.

"I...I've won the league championship twice, are you sure you want me to go?" Xiao Shi was not afraid of taking risks, but his fame was not as great as the champion's, though he still had some recognition.

Anyone who loves Pokémon battles is likely to know themselves. If Gary had never won a Pokémon League championship, that would be a bit better.

Because most people only remember the champion, not the runner-up, unless that person has always been the runner-up.

Now it was Daigo's turn to be in a dilemma. Sending an adult was obviously not appropriate, as the other side would be wary of adults, but a child could deceive them.

“I’ll do it!” Higana volunteered, standing up as she spoke.

"Higana, stop messing around, this isn't something you can do." Xiao Mao immediately pressed Higana down. This girl doesn't even know how to use a mobile phone, asking her to place a detector is just asking for failure.

“Shigeru…I think Higanbana isn’t out of the question either,” Daigo said.

“Daigo, you must be joking. Higanbana doesn’t understand the rules of society. She might get into trouble in the past…” Shigeru said.

“It’s precisely because of their lack of understanding that they were able to deceive the people on the Sea of ​​Purple Jade. Xijiana is very suitable,” Mikoli interjected.

Xiao Mao wanted to say something, but Xi Jiana stopped him.

"Xiao Mao, don't say anymore. My mind is made up. I lost the meteorite, so I should find it myself. This is also part of the trial," said Xijiana.

Xiao Mao fell silent because he felt that what Xijiana said made sense.

Delivering the meteorite to Rayquaza was originally part of Higanbana's own trial. The loss of the meteorite was also due to Higanbana's own negligence. Now that Higanbana wants to make amends for this mistake, Gary has nothing to say.

“Since Higanbana asked for it herself, I don’t object,” said Xiao Mao.

"Miss Higana, let me explain the details of what to do..." Kuroda began to explain the specific action plan to Higana.

The captain of the special delivery ship has been bribed by Devon Corporation. The day to deliver the supplies is in two days. At that time, Higana will be arranged to board the ship to help move the supplies. After that, all that is needed is to place the detector in the concealed area of ​​the platform.

The guards at Hai Zijing's place weren't particularly strict; they just didn't allow outsiders to get close, but the crew delivering supplies could still carry the food into the warehouse.

Higana's task was simple: just place the probe on the platform of Sea Aster 2.9. To be on the safe side, Daigo prepared three probes for Higana.

Moreover, all three detectors were made into decorations, or even magic props. People who didn't know any better would just think they were ordinary decorations. After a simple operation, Higana knew how to use them.

Daigo and Mikuri also brought in professionals to tell Higana where it would be best to hide these detectors on the platform.

After two days of training, Xijiana has mastered how to install the detectors and can now place them in designated hidden locations without anyone noticing.

This morning.

"Higanbana, be careful on your journey. Here, take this Poké Ball. Release it if you encounter any danger." Gary took a pink Poké Ball out of his pocket and handed it to Higanbana.

406: Higana is appointed to a critical mission

"This is...!"

When Shirley handed her the Poké Ball, Sheikha was stunned.

While traveling with Gary, Higanbana learned that the pink Pokémon was called a Heal Ball, and that Latios was the only Pokémon Gary had that was kept in a Heal Ball.

Shigeru has now entrusted Latios to her, a gesture that makes Higana feel flattered and overwhelmed.

"There's nothing I can do. None of your Pokémon are any good. If you encounter any danger, you won't be able to handle it," said Shigeru.

“Don’t underestimate my Pokémon, they are very strong,” Higana retorted.

"Okay, I understand. It's just to give you some assurance. I hope you don't have to use it." Xiao Mao patted Xijiana's head and stroked it twice.

Xijiana immediately shrank her neck, just like a kitten tamed by a cat petting device.

"Don't touch my head." Hijana slapped Xiao Mao's hand away and tidied her hair.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine," Higana said before heading towards the dock.
