Chapter 269 The missing Pokémon case, Magearna was discovered!

It's another week before Halloween, and although the recent strange behavior in Alola has made the atmosphere in the entire area weird, many Pokémon are reluctant to go out.

But the festival is approaching, and the ghost-type Pokémon who can finally celebrate the festival will not care about this and continue to play music and dance, and the atmosphere is lively again.

On the other side, the commemorative activities of Wanshiwu continued as in previous years.

This day last year was the day when the Youth Cup ended. It was also the day when Hoshino and Lillie resolved their misunderstanding and got back together, which was of great significance.

In one year's time, two new members, Tie BaoFu and Xiao Xingyun, were added to the family, which made the family more lively every year. Lillie finally spent this anniversary with everyone in the House of Everything.

Now she has finally satisfied this regret. As for her wishes, she actually still has some.

For example, taming a new Pokémon, being able to celebrate the New Year in the House of Everything, and being able to have a New Year's Eve dinner together as a family... But this is basically impossible, I can only dream about it.

Nearing the early hours of the morning, the event finally came to an end. A group of tired Pokémon lay asleep in the living room. After taking photos as a souvenir, Hoshino and Lillie began to tidy up.

The most sensible Gengar also followed him, and then asked Tie Baobao to help pick up the garbage and send it all to the garbage station, which was much more convenient.

"Gengar~"

Gengar has been busy recently with Sai Fuhao, helping the Master House receive the Pokémon that have been entrusted. Although he is not tired, he has lost a lot of time to play. Fortunately, their festival is coming soon.

But at this moment, Hoshino, who was holding the plate and preparing to go to the kitchen, suddenly said: "By the way, don't run out of Kabukicho to play blindly these days. There are ultra-exotic beasts outside. You might not be an opponent if you fight alone. Wait.

Follow me when I go out."

"Gengar~"

Gengar nodded and had no complaints. As the oldest Pokémon in the House of Everything except Biker, although it is young, it is exactly 3 years old today, it is well-behaved, sensible and can take care of others. That's it, it is good for everyone.

Need it to take care of.

Then he continued to help tidy up the living room. After everything was clean, he didn't forget to go back to the bedroom and take out the blanket to cover these guys.

After everything was over, it said something to Hoshino and went to the izakaya downstairs to continue playing.

Lillie put down the mop, looked at Hoshino, and chuckled: "I feel like Gengar is really like a big sister who likes to take care of people~"

"It used to be very naughty and tortured me in the claw machine every day."

"I heard you say it, but it also shows that you are very good at educating Pokémon."

"Education is one thing, and being willing to work hard is another. The credit cannot all go to the trainers. New Leaf Cat, Saifuhao, Popper Dolphin... almost all of them were cared for by Gengar when they first came here. This is not what I taught

Yes, it learned it on its own."

If anyone in the family puts Hoshino at ease the most, it must be Gengar, who is well-behaved, sensible, lively and good at making friends, and can get along wherever he goes.

The only problem is that Gengar's black transformation is too scary. He is really rushing to kill the enemy completely and doesn't even listen to his words.

And this just shows that Gengar usually has a lot of backlogged pressure, but his personality is too good. Even if he is wronged, he will hide it and not show it. He will never let his family know. Only by going dark can he completely eliminate it.

excitation.

At this time, Lillie suddenly remembered something again and said with some worry: "By the way, the missing Pokémon case in Nico City seems to be getting more and more serious, and it has not been solved yet."

"That case, how should I put it... is a bit troublesome, and it won't be resolved in a short while. We still have a commission here."

"well……"

The two of them suddenly turned to the case, and Gengar had already arrived at the izakaya and greeted the long-tailed firefox and the others...

With the appearance of the Ultra Beast, the flow of customers in the izakaya is getting worse and worse. Many familiar faces have not been seen in the past few days, which makes Gengar a little disappointed.

Fortunately, Haoli and the hard-boiled natives who come here almost every day are not afraid of these at all. The civil engineering brother who can work at the construction site for so long without running away has long been afraid of nothing.

When King Daidai saw it, he asked: "Is the party upstairs over now?"

"Gengar~"

Gengar smiled and nodded, then floated not far away, just as the Blue Flame Blade Ghost passed by carrying a plate and greeted each other.

They have a very good relationship. When Gengar was first brought here by Hoshino, he was rescued by the Blue Flame Blade Ghost. Although he was very afraid of each other at the time, after getting along with him later, he felt that this eldest sister just had a cold personality.

Very good at taking care of people.

Gengar has a secret. It is good at taking care of others. It actually learned it from the Blue Flame Blade Ghost. As for why the other party is so good, it has also curiously asked, but it has not received an answer.

It was midnight, and the All-things House had turned off the lights and had a rest. In the early morning, many guests also went home, including Haoli and the others, who had to go to work tomorrow.

In the blink of an eye, there was not a single customer left in the izakaya. Gengar sat on the bar boredly, playing with the Slowpoke that kept looking at the sky and "squealing".

King Dude is sitting behind the bar, taking out a newspaper and reading it. He likes to read this kind of thing, but he doesn't like mobile phones and the like very much.

Then it picked up a lollipop and said slowly: "Something happened again on Akala Island. Now Alola really can't calm down at all."

"Gengar?"

"It's a bit serious, but there have been 77 cases of newborn Pokémon disappearing in the middle of the night in Nico City. Not only the breeding houses, but also the homes of some trainers have been brutally attacked... Catching children, tsk, Duke

Look down on these guys."

Hearing this, Cangyan Blade Ghost glanced at it, but King Daidai shook his head and stopped him: "Don't make things irrelevant to us. This kind of thing should be done by the guy upstairs. He is not the best."

Do you like to meddle in such nosy matters?"

"Gengar~"

Geng Gui nodded and said that it would be better to leave this matter to Wanshiwu. It is simply intolerable that there is a guy who kidnaps children!

Seeing that it accepted the commission, King Dude deliberately reminded: "Be careful, the guy who can steal a child quietly must be very powerful. Halloween is coming soon, maybe it has something to do with it."

"Gengar?"

Just like that, the next day during the day, Hoshino rushed downstairs and grabbed the umbrella-like collar of King Slow and shouted: "Is there anyone who sends out commissions like this? You fool my Gengar to accept commissions every day, right?"

"Don't pull, don't pull, it's about to break."

"snort!"

Hoshino snorted coldly. This guy used Gengar's trust to deal with troubles not once or twice. Anyway, the final commission always fell on him, but this time the difficulty was obviously different.

He had been paying attention to this case when Nai-chan came to tell Lillie before, but he didn't expect it to become more and more serious. Lila and the others also investigated it, and finally confirmed that it was not the work of the ultimate alien beast, but probably something more serious.

Weird stuff.

"It's troublesome, so where are the details of the commission? Just one Halloween?"

Hoshino only cursed a few words, but the next commission he received would definitely be completed. He believed that the other party must know some details. Because of his integrity and integrity, King Dude was able to succeed almost every time.

King Daidai adjusted his collar, and then said: "No one cares about this matter, so I can only let you handle it. After all, you like to meddle in other people's business. Alola has been very frightened recently, and I don't want this mess."

Let’s continue to scare away the customers.”

"..."

"I don't know exactly what it is. After all, I didn't go to the scene to investigate, but I guess it may be related to Halloween. You have to trust your intuition!"

"..."

Hoshino was convinced, but he still asked himself to handle the commission based on this clue? Fortunately, Lillie also followed, and quickly comforted: "Okay, okay, just treat it as a commission from Sister Nai-chan, and I promised to report it at that time."

It’s safe, but there is still no result yet.”

"well……"

Having said that, what else could Hoshino say? The main reason was that he was going to arrange the Z-move plan, but a sudden commission immediately disrupted the arrangement...

Back in the Everything Room, Geng Gui didn't expect Hoshino to be so angry this time, so he lowered his head and stood aside with some remorse.

"It's none of your business, it's just that this stupid boss is not a good person on a daily basis."

"The stupid boss is not a human being in the first place."

"..."

Hoshino was silenced by Lillie, and then contacted Lila and asked the other party to send him some information on the last investigation of this case, so that he could study it carefully.

After quickly reading the information, I found that the situation was indeed serious. First of all, the missing cases were all in Kanico City, and the missing Pokémon were either just born or members of the Baby Team. This was only for Pokémon, not for

Human cub.

The time of disappearance can basically be determined. It is between 10 and 00 every night, and at random urban locations. There is no pattern, as if it is only a child...

Lillie was watching next to her and was very angry: "It's too abominable. You caught a Pokémon like this. It's been almost two months since it disappeared. I'm afraid it's already in danger... This kind of thing can't be done."

Did a Pokémon hunter do it?”

"These guys don't have that kind of ability, and the Ultra Beast has been ruled out as committing the crime, so it can only be a very dangerous Pokémon, and there should be more than one. The possibility of a gang committing the crime is very high."

Hoshino continued to speculate, but it was a pity that there were no clues about this case until now. Because of this, it has not been solved for almost two months.

The stupid boss doesn't want to take care of the matter, so let him handle it. This case must have developed to a very serious level, but this guy must know the reason and even gave a Halloween reminder!

In other words, the prisoner may be a ghost type? Think about it, only the ghost type and the super power type can do this. I just gave the boss a hint, and I don’t know what he wants...

"It's troublesome... I have to go to Kanico City first and give the Z bracelet to Miss Lizzy."

"Can I come along?"

"Um?"

"I'm a little worried about these Pokémon, and...it's been almost two months, and I haven't left Kabukicho for a step..."

Seeing Lillie's anxious expression, Hoshino shook his head, then stretched out his hand and pinched her face gently, and said: "No problem, just stay with me and don't run around."

"Um!"

"Then let's set off now. Sai Fuhao, you and Gengar can help look after the house. We may not be able to come back until tomorrow."

"Jiwagu~"

"Gengar!"

Sai Fuhao said it was no problem. It liked the feeling of being the boss, but Gengar refused. It was the one who accepted the commission, so naturally it had to keep up!

"Okay, you can keep that iron burden at home. I'm afraid Sai Fuhao alone won't be able to handle it."

"Didi——"

Iron Baggage nodded and said it was no problem. It generally rarely held objections and thought more on its own. It was the type that had its own opinions but preferred to be more passive.

After making arrangements, they set off directly. Lillie was very happy to be able to go out after a long time. She hugged Little Nebula and sat sideways on the Motorcycle Lizard, relying on Hoshino and began to enjoy the scenery along the way.

But just after they left, King Dude came out of the izakaya again, looking at them calmly.

Then, a tall figure suddenly appeared next to it, but it didn't pay attention, but said slowly: "They took the commission and left. Wouldn't you issue the commission yourself for this kind of thing? You have to let me transfer it to them.

, just want to test it?"

"..."

…

The moment the two appeared in Hauale City, they were discovered by people from the Aether Foundation. These people only had the task of keeping track and would not do anything else.

After taking a boat in the port area, they soon arrived at Kenico City. Sure enough, they felt something was wrong as soon as they entered the city.

You can see police patrolling everywhere, especially around the cultivation house. The once lively streets are now rarely visited by tourists.

Xinye Miao felt it, and there was no smell of disaster, so it was not a disaster, but it did have an unusual smell.

"It's really strange..."

Hoshino looked around, Lillie also held Little Nebula and looked carefully, but found nothing. Gengar floated aside and shook his head as well.

"We should ask Pop Dolphin here to ask. It has been following the Explosive Mosquito Man every day during this period, and even joined forces to help the international police defeat the ultimate alien beast. Such a big thing happened here, and they must know about it.

.”

"Then let's ask again after we get back."

"Um."

Hoshino nodded lightly. When he went out to deal with requests, he usually brought out Biker and Meowth. Other Pokémon would only be brought out when they had nothing to do. If something happened, they would definitely not disturb them.

It was still early in the evening, so they first went to Lizzie Gem Shop to look for the Queen of the Island, and then handed the Z bracelet to each other.

There was no way, most of the classmates had left Alola. Even after a summer vacation, Mitsuki felt that it was difficult to build an alliance, so she decided to practice first, and then traveled to the Kanto area with Xiaoyang to challenge the place there.

Gym.

So Hoshino now has six more Z bracelets in his hand. He plans to give one to the king of the island first, and the rest will be decided based on the situation.

Fortunately, there have been a lot of things going on in Kenico City recently, and Lizzy has no chance to leave at all. She is even very irritable as if she has reached menopause. When the two of them entered the gem store to find someone, the clerk at the door still reminded them in a low voice not to talk nonsense.

At this moment, Lizi was sitting at the desk at the back of the first floor of the gem shop, with a headache on her face and she didn't know what she was thinking. It wasn't until Hoshino and the others came that she finally came back to her senses, smiled and said hello.

"Alola~ Why didn't you tell me in advance that you came here so suddenly? The situation in Nico City has not been very good recently. I'm afraid you will be disappointed if you come to play."

"We also came here after hearing about the missing Pokémon case in Kaniko City, to see if we could be of any help."

Lillie responded politely. After hearing this, Lizzy managed to squeeze out a hint of happiness on her face and said: "It's been almost two months, and I can only find a few clues, which should be related to ghost-type Pokémon..."

"We think so too..."

"So it's really a headache. I finally found a boyfriend, but a lot of things made it difficult for me to meet him. I'm already over thirty, and if I can't find a marriage partner, I'll be trapped in the circle again.

Those rich women laughed at you!"

Lizzy suddenly seemed to be going crazy, startling the two people in front of her. Lillie quickly changed the subject, thought for a while, and asked: "Um...does Miss Lizzy already have a boyfriend?"

It must be very good, right?”

Hearing this question, Li Zi clasped her hands together, showed a slut-like expression, and responded very excitedly: "He is a gym trainer in Deep Gray City, and like me, he is an expert in using rock elements! His

The charming squinting eyes and the bronzed and strong figure are simply dancing on my xp~"

"It's almost done..."

Hoshino really couldn't help it. If you were a guy like Qishu who was too young to tell his age and made such an expression, I wouldn't say anything to you.

Fortunately, they quickly explained their purpose. Hoshino handed the Z bracelet to the other party and once again explained the important matters when using it.

After listening to this, Li Zi put on the Z bracelet and nodded: "Don't worry, I've already prepared it. Rock Z, right? Just leave it to me!"

As the island kings of Alola, everything they do is for the development of Alola. They will definitely help unconditionally in this kind of thing, even if they suffer a loss, it doesn't matter.

After giving away the Z bracelet, the two left the gem shop. At this time, Lillie sighed and said: "Even the Queen of the Island can't do anything, so where should we start to investigate?"

"Hmm...how about asking online?"

Hoshino suddenly thought of a good idea. Now it’s time to use the Wanshiwu website. This website is their circle. Not only can you answer questions for others, but you can also ask questions yourself!

After hearing his idea, Lillie immediately went to ask. Hoshino was usually busy all the time, so she had a lot of water because she couldn't go out to swim.

Then he directly explained the current situation, and soon the following reply came...

Shui Lian: "Ah? Is it so scary? Are my parents and my sister okay? But they didn't even tell me that such a big thing happened in Nico City. I have to call back and ask."

Lillie: "Don't worry. There have been no missing humans yet. Everything will be fine. It can be speculated that the ghost Pokémon is responsible, but there is no way to lock the opponent."

Arcelora: "Ghost type, right? Can Nico City, right? I'll come over right away. I don't even know about such an interesting thing..."

Pipa: "If you adopt a Mastiff Godfather, this kind of thing will not happen. The residents of Padia are worried that wild ghost-type Pokémon will enter their homes at night and steal things, so they will choose to adopt a Mastiff Godfather to visit their homes and protect their homes."

Afeng: "I usually leave the unsold desserts for them at the dessert shop in the evening, so that they can reduce the risk of them digging through other people's houses to eat."

Piper: "I don't like people stealing the food I make. Recently, Mr. Savaro is teaching us advanced dessert making, and I'm busy with that."

Afeng: "Dessert? Then, classmate Paipa, do you want to come to my dessert shop to learn?"

Zhulan: "This All-things House seems quite interesting."

"..."

Seeing that Miss Zhulan, who had been in the group for a month, spoke for the first time, Lillie seemed a little confused.

However, she noticed the sentence above about someone coming over, and then suddenly remembered it, and said quickly: "Hoshino, Acerola said she wanted to come over. She is an expert in the ghost system. Maybe she has a way to catch that person.

Child thief!"

"What? This guy is coming?"

"right!"

"This guy is also a big trouble."

Hoshino recalled the first time he met Acerola. It seemed like two years had passed in the blink of an eye. After such a long time, he could at least be more mature, but don't start making dirty jokes again...

Ula'ula Island is located southeast of Akala Island and is very close. It only took Aselora half an hour to arrive at the dock by boat.

We haven’t seen her for a long time, and she still hasn’t grown any taller. She is still dressed in the same Mimikki-Q style, with a skirt sewn from rags. When she saw the two people waiting for her at the pier, she immediately ran forward.

"Alora~Long time no see, did you miss Acerola~"

"No."

"Gengar!"

As soon as Hoshino responded, a large Gengar suddenly jumped out with flashing special effects, and then stared at his own Gengar with a wooing look.

Two years ago at Pokémon Academy, it was fascinated by him at first sight, especially when he went berserk and tore up balloons with his hands, which was so cool.

"Gengar..."

Stared at by this malicious gaze, the little Gengar retreated slightly, but Xinye Miao jumped up from Hoshino's shoulder and slapped the big Gengar!

"Meow"

Where are your eyes looking? You don’t want it anymore, do you?

“It’s as lively as ever~”

Seeing her Gengar being beaten, Arcelora stuck out her tongue and made a face. Then she looked at Lillie, pursed her lips, and complained: "Sister, you are really the same. You are obviously in Alola, but you can't.

You haven’t come to play with me for such a long time, you really forgot about my lovely sister when you got a man!”

"Haha, this..."

Lillie is also in a dilemma. She can't go out and run around. Fortunately, she can stay at home and help manage the website to relieve her boredom.

At this time, Arcelora also noticed the little Nebula she was holding. She tilted her head and asked curiously: "What kind of Pokémon is this? I've never seen a duck before!"

"Xiao Xingyun, say hello to my sister."

"嘤~"

Little Nebula waved her hand, and Lillie was afraid that it would be too boring to stay in the bag, so she simply didn't put it in it, as long as it didn't run around.

"It's so cute, I'll give you some candy~"

Arcelora grabbed a handful of candies and handed them to Little Nebula. Then she looked at Hoshino who was punching and kicking Gengar with Xin Ye Miao. She stepped forward, showed a sly smile, and asked in a low voice.

: "How are you and your big sister going? You've done everything you need to do~ It feels... painful!"

Before she finished speaking, Hoshino hit her directly on the head. If you can't beat others, why can't you beat you?

"What are you thinking about all day long? Girls are more lovable if they are more reserved!"

"Tsk, I can tell by your attitude. It's useless... If I were you, my eldest sister would have been taken down by me a long time ago, and then...it will hurt all day long!"

Acellola covered her head, her eyes sparkling, and she pouted and shouted: "Don't hit me on the head all the time! I won't grow taller!"

"Your poor growth period has long since passed, and you can only grow sideways in this life."

"That's too much to say!"

“It’s just too much~”

"Ugh!"

Acerola looked at him resentfully like a wronged little girl, but then her attitude changed and she stepped forward again and whispered: "I got some very good comics here, let me give you a discount."

, do you want~"

"Um?"

Hoshino's eyes suddenly sharpened, he immediately glanced around to confirm the situation, and then lowered his voice.

"want!"

But as soon as she finished speaking, Lillie blushed and shouted loudly: "I can hear it! You are not allowed to buy it!"

"..."

A few people left the dock noisily, and soon the topic returned to the topic, and Acerola learned everything from them.

"I see, that's really serious. It's so close to me."

"Sigh... I just don't have a clue right now. I don't know how to catch it at all."

"Don't worry, big sister, as long as the other party comes out at night, I will definitely be able to track it!"

Acellola said very confidently that ghost experts have more or less unusual abilities, so there must be no difficulty in doing this kind of thing.

Hoshino held Gengar in his arms and walked behind the two of them. At the same time, he and Xinye Miao stared at each other's big Gengar, and then he said: "Then let's act at night. Halloween will be in a few days, and that day the ghost system will

There will be a lot of Pokémon, and maybe the criminal this time will do something on Halloween!"

"Halloween~ The spirit world will open~"

"Huh? Wait...the spirit world?!"

"Hey, you haven't forgotten, right? We were able to spend a night in the gap between the spiritual world and the real world. At least we experienced it once!"

"That's not what I meant..."

Hearing Acerola mention that the passage to the spirit world would be opened on Halloween, Hoshino thought that the stupid boss deliberately mentioned Halloween. Is it possible that the prisoner is related to the spirit world? Is it another civil servant in the spirit world?

After all, the spirit world is different. It is a world of ghost Pokémon and the undead. No living person can enter. If this time is related to the spirit world, then these missing Pokémon...

"...I won't be captured and taken to the spirit world!"

"Um?!"

Lillie and Acerola looked at him at the same time, and they were all stunned. What should I do if a living being cannot enter the spirit world? Just hang up!

"Is it possible that all those Pokémon have been... killed?"

"Impossible. Civil servants in the spirit world have clear regulations. They must not kill living creatures and bring their souls into the spirit world. Otherwise, the punishment will be very serious!"

In response, Hoshino said in a casual tone: "I didn't necessarily do it with them. What if it was a small accident? They were just passing by and happened to pick up these souls. Well... I just happened to pick them up!"

"this……"

Acerola was speechless. Although the spirit world has issued regulations to restrict civil servants, this is only when you are at work. Who will take care of you after get off work? The standard for becoming a civil servant is that you must be strong. As for character, there is nothing Require.

As she said this, Lillie began to worry more and more. She could only pray that the missing Pokémon were okay. Many of them had just come into this world and were taken away without doing anything...

The atmosphere instantly became heavy. At this time, Hoshino said: "So, there should be a spiritual world channel near Konic City, right? Although it has not been opened, you must know something about it."

Hearing this, Acerola raised her little hand and responded with a smile: "I do know something, but you still have to look at me, so let's go~"

"Um!"

On the outskirts of Konico City, there is a cemetery that is very famous in Alola. It is a place that connects the memories of people and Pokémon. Sometimes some tourists come here to visit.

Acellola and the two of them arrived here quickly. Looking from a distance, you will find that the entire cemetery seems to be in a fog, and it is impossible to peek into the plants and trees. It is very mysterious.

"This is...the Hill of Memories?"

Lillie had read in a book that it was said that the Hill of Memories used to be the cemetery of the Kingdom of Alola. Because it was close to the ruins of life where Capu Diedie was, this cemetery became a dividing line.

The deceased can sleep here, but at the same time they will also assume the responsibility of guarding the relics of life, so there is a fog shrouded in it, and those who are dishonest will not be able to pass through it to go to the relics of life to see the patron saint.

"It's just a trick to fool the people of Alola who attach great importance to their faith. Who can stop this thing? I can even run over it on a motorcycle lizard..."

Hoshino complained silently in his heart. He didn't dare to say this kind of thing openly. Maybe everyone wouldn't mind, but it would still cause some unhappiness.

However, the cemetery is indeed a place far away from many ghost-type Pokémon, and it is also shrouded in fog, so the possibility of criminals hiding in it is very high!

At this time, Lillie turned sideways and asked: "Is the passage to the spirit world at the Hill of Memories? Halloween hasn't come yet, so how are we going to find it?"

"Let's go in and take a look first. This is my family's cemetery anyway. I'm going to chat with the ancestors. Maybe they know something."

"???"

"Don't worry, as long as you don't cause any damage, our ancestors won't blame you~"

"...Is this the problem!"

"I am a descendant of the Alola royal family. I was a serious princess in the past. You don't really think I'm joking, do you?"

Arcelora deliberately showed off the gold armband she wore on her left arm. This is the bracelet that symbolizes the royal family. The Hill of Memories is the royal cemetery. Although it has become a scenic spot, there is really no problem in saying that it belongs to her family.

Lillie was speechless for a moment. Why did she feel that the plot was beginning to develop in the direction of a horror movie?

"Meow~"

Xinye Miao called at her, as if laughing at her for being afraid of ghosts despite her age.

"I'm not afraid!"

Lillie pouted and stared back. Hoshino held his forehead and shook his head, saying: "Why do you care so much? Let's go in and take a look before it gets dark. This kind of place is not very safe at night."

"Don't worry, I'm here~"

Acerola was very confident and led them in together...

Although it is daytime, the visibility here is basically no more than five meters, it is foggy as far as the eye can see, and the temperature is completely different from outside.

The surroundings were unusually quiet, but there were glances coming from time to time, as if something was floating around, which meant that there were many wild ghost-type Pokémon living nearby.

New Leaf Meow remains vigilant. If something happens, it will use the power of disaster as soon as possible. Gengar is also watching very vigilantly.

The only exception is Little Nebula, which seems to have never suffered a loss and doesn't know how to write the word "fear".

Even in a place like this, it was still full of excitement and curiosity, and even wanted to run out to play. It was completely unaware that there were already several strange sights staring at it in the fog.

But Lillie, who was holding Little Nebula, felt a chill and shivered subconsciously. She couldn't figure out where it came from, but she was obviously not afraid at all. Could it be that her body was afraid?

"Meow?"

"Look what I'm doing..."

"Meow~"

You look good~ Xinye Miao turned around and couldn't help but snicker. I didn't expect that this young lady would still be so timid after so long. Maybe I can find a chance to scare her next time.

"..."

Arcelora continued to take them for a walk in the cemetery, but unfortunately, as the sky gradually darkened, they were still scurrying around like headless flies inside.

Hoshino finally couldn't help it anymore and shouted: "Isn't this your cemetery? Why are you still lost!"

“I haven’t been here a few times!”

"Then you are so confident!"

"I'm confident there won't be any danger!"

"Stop pulling this off!"

"It hurts... don't pat my head!"

"It's already dark and you're leading us around here. You're a kid too. Be careful when a Tomb Raider pops out and snatches you away. Go back to the city first. Maybe the criminal will come to catch Pokémon again at night.

"

"Who are you calling a kid? I'm several years older than you... Hey! Don't run!"

The two of them left in the direction of Konic City while quarreling. The fog will only hinder your progress. It is very simple to leave.

Lillie shook her head, and then she was about to follow Little Nebula in her arms, but suddenly the temperature dropped sharply, as if something was about to approach.

She subconsciously took out the elf ball, but she seemed to be too nervous and the elf ball accidentally slipped. Now something big happened. She could only look at the two people in front of her to remind them that there was danger here, but it was too late. It was just the next step.

This sense of crisis suddenly disappeared within seconds.

"Eh?"

"Meow~"

Xinye Miao came to her at some point, lying on the ground holding her belly and laughing. She didn't expect that just using a little disaster energy could scare her to this extent. Sure enough, she was still scared.

"..."

Lillie was not stupid. She immediately guessed that the sense of crisis just now was caused by Xinye Miao, so she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Although she was relieved in her heart, her expression also became resentful.

"Don't play a prank like this!"

"Meow~"

New Leaf Meow turned over and stood up, shaking his head proudly. Seeing its appearance, Lillie couldn't continue to say anything. After all, it was not her Pokémon, and the other party would not listen to her.

At this time, Hoshino's voice sounded slowly from the front: "Why don't you leave? Do you want to stay here for the night?"

"Coming!"

"Meow!"

Lillie and Xinye Miao looked at each other and then followed. Little Nebula didn't know what happened, but she thought it was interesting.

But after they all left, another figure seemed to suddenly float past in the mist...

The three of them returned to Kenico City and began to wait after dinner. The criminals committed crimes at night, so if they wanted to catch each other, they had to wait here. Unfortunately, they gained nothing on the first night.

The prisoners did not act every night, and there were no rules for their actions. There was nothing to gain from waiting all night, so a few of them had no choice but to leave first.

Unexpectedly, Hoshino and the others did not come back the second night, but when they were resting to replenish their energy, two more Pokémon disappeared in Nico City, which was a perfect miss. So they came again on the third night, but unfortunately this time the other Pokémon came again.

No action…

At dawn, a few people were eating breakfast at a breakfast restaurant in the urban food street. Lillie watched little Nebula take a bite of a small steamed bun, then reached out and touched its head, sighing: "Why do you always stagger it? It's the day after tomorrow."

It’s Halloween, there’s not enough time…”

"I suspect it was targeted deliberately!"

Arcelora was also very angry. She originally came here because she thought it would be interesting, but in the end she didn't wait to say anything, and she didn't even have time to sleep or play.

Hoshino touched her head with the hand that had just grabbed the steamed dumplings, and responded in a calm tone: "I think too much, it's just bad luck, but Halloween is coming soon, so I can only spend the next few days first

Now that you’re here, why don’t you go to the Hill of Memories?”

"Are you still going?"

"This time we will go around alone, so that we don't have to be led blindly by someone who can get lost in his own cemetery."

"Hey! Who is this? I'm angry. You can go and play by yourselves, hum!"

"Okay, okay..."

Lillie quickly tried to smooth things over. She was already used to Hoshino's character of blaming others. In the past, she was often bullied to the point of being speechless, but then it became less frequent. She would even give in to herself a lot of the time, but she would still bully occasionally.

Own.

In this case, Acerola also shook her head: "Then let's go there again. Without me to lead the way, I am not responsible for anything that happens inside!"

"What could happen..."

Hoshino stood up and called over the Motorized Lizard and Xinye Miao who had already eaten dozens of cages of steamed dumplings. They were about to set off. Gengar sat on his head, alerting other Gengars to approach with malicious intent...

Several people came to the Hill of Memories again. The place was still shrouded in fog like the previous few days, and no changes could be seen. It was only when they got closer that they could clearly feel that it seemed to be getting colder.

"What's going on?"

"Halloween is getting closer and closer, and the channel to the spirit world is about to open. The spiritual power here has increased a lot, and you will naturally feel cold. People with poor physical fitness should not approach it casually, as it is easy to get sick."

Acerola explained, but she still had a smile on her face. She was born with spiritual affinity, and she would be very comfortable staying in a place like this.

After understanding the situation, several people entered it again. Xinye Miao used the ability of the Jade of Disaster to slightly increase the temperature, so that the motorcycle lizard would not be too cold to walk and unable to react to special circumstances.

This time it was Hoshino who led the way, and the other two followed behind. Perhaps out of boredom, Acerola stuck to Lillie's side and asked in a low voice: "Why haven't you made any progress yet? Is it because you lack strategies? Do you want me to give them to you?

Would you like to study some pure love comics?"

"Um...well, I...that, mainly because I don't know what he thinks of me."

"He obviously likes you!"

"How is it possible..."

"Sister, you just don't have confidence. If he doesn't take the initiative, then you take the initiative. A will win in one go!"

"I've taken the initiative, but I haven't taken the initiative completely. You'd better stop worrying about me..."

"There's something wrong with both of you. No wonder Meiyue said in the group that she doesn't want to get involved in your affairs. If you leave it to me, I feel anxious!"

"..."

Lillie didn't know how to respond, and Hoshino, who heard the conversation between the two in front, was even more embarrassed. In such a quiet environment, he could hear any sound, so it was better to pretend not to hear. At the same time, his mind started to get confused.

The good atmosphere became inexplicably awkward. At this moment, little Nebula, who was being held by Lillie, seemed to feel something. It seemed that something was calling her in the mist.

"嘤?"

It was a little confused, then took it out and floated curiously in a certain direction.

"Little Nebula!"

Hearing Lillie's voice, the other two people immediately came to their senses. Gengar quickly chased after them, and the others also hurriedly chased after them.

Fortunately, Gengar was still fast, and Little Nebula was quickly caught by it in the fog, but the others behind it had not yet caught up.

"Gengar!"

Gengar was holding Little Nebula in his arms and was about to teach it not to run around when a ghostly face suddenly appeared from the mist behind him. Little Nebula, who was still curious at first, was frightened when he saw him.

"Hey!"

"Gengar!"

Gengar didn't hesitate and swung his punch directly towards the back, but the grimace disappeared in an instant. Instead, someone rushed up from the side and was knocked away with a punch before it could withstand its strength. A sound broke through the air.

It rang out and even the tombstones in the distance were smashed.

"Meow!"

"Mo Lizard!"

"Are you okay Hoshino!"

"Gengar..."

For a moment, Lillie sat next to the smashed tombstone, letting the half-dead Hoshino rest on her lap. While wrapping a bandage on him, she taught little Nebula: "I told you not to run around!"

"Hey..."

The little nebula was floating aside aggrievedly. It just felt that something was calling it, so it came over out of curiosity, so it didn't count as running around.

"...Gengar couldn't have hit me for no reason. Something must have lured it here."

Hoshino made a weak sound. Gengar, who was blaming himself, nodded immediately. Lillie asked worriedly: "Are you okay? Don't move."

"It's just a fatal injury, no..."

Before he finished speaking, Hoshino glanced and noticed where he was lying. He paused for a moment and whispered: "Then... let me lie down for a while."

"Well, have a good rest."

Lillie knew that he was taking advantage of her, but it didn't matter, it was just a pillow between her knees, but what the other person just said caught her attention.

"You said there is something that attracts you...wait a minute, little Nebula is a child too!"

"嘤~"

Little Nebula nodded quickly, indicating that she was indeed a child. At this moment, Acerola, who was walking around, suddenly said excitedly: "This is it! The passage to the spirit world is right here!"

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, haven't you noticed that the tombstones around here are all different? They are obviously much taller, because in the past, only the king of Alola was qualified to be buried here!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Acerola was suddenly stunned for a moment. She looked at the fragments of the tombstone. She was stunned for a moment and shouted: "Look what you have done! The ancestor's tombstone has been destroyed. What should I tell them?"

Ah, Acerola has become a sinner... Wuwu."

"..."

Hoshino couldn't bear her crying, so he could only leave Lillie's comfortable knee pillow, and stood up reluctantly with the help, and then said: "I will pay you as much as you want. Do you want 502 to glue the tombstone? Or should I cover the entire cemetery?"

Renovate everything?”

Hearing this, Acerola stopped crying immediately, showed a playful smile, raised her hand and responded: "There is no need to renovate. As their descendant, you can just compensate me directly."

"I'll compensate you with a tombstone and put it here for you. It's worthy of you."

"Hey, you can just give me the money you paid to buy my tombstone. My pocket money has been getting less and less recently, and it's not even enough to buy comics."

"Where's your face?"

"Hey, don't quarrel!"

When a few people started making noise in the cemetery, Xinye Miao suddenly jumped out pushing a metal ball about half a meter in diameter, and started playing with it. The cat had no ability to resist the ball.

But this attracted the attention of others. Everyone subconsciously looked at it and found that the overall shape of this strange metal ball was somewhat like a fairy ball. The lower half was white, the upper half was metallic, and there were a pair of golden waves tattooed on the left and right sides.

Wire.

"This is!"

Hoshino was startled, and Acerola immediately jumped out and snatched the ball away from Maomao, and said curiously: "I seem to have seen this in my family's history book. It belongs to my ancestors!"

"Meow!"

Xinye Meow's fur instantly exploded. This is a toy I found. How did it become yours?

Upon hearing this, Hoshino quickly asked: "Where did you find it?"

"Meow~"

Maomao pointed behind the smashed tombstone. There was a wooden box that was damaged by the impact, which seemed to be the burial object of the tomb owner.

After understanding the situation, Xinye Miao had already started fighting with Acerola. The cat will not be polite to you, but the little girl is not easy to bully.

During the fight, the metal ball fell to the ground and was caught by Little Nebula. Unfortunately, it couldn't pick it up.

Lillie came to the side and looked at the metal ball curiously, then stretched out her hand and touched it on the center circle.

But then, as if some mechanism was triggered, the metal ball suddenly started to shake. Hoshino quickly pulled her away, and then the two of them watched carefully.

I saw a strange body suddenly protruding from above the metal ball, with a vibrant red and blue structure on its chest.

Its head is a medium-sized sphere, with a seven-tooth gear-shaped hat fixed on it, and a pair of large ears that look a bit like two halves of a giant disk, like a rabbit.

There are spherical shoulders on both sides of the body, the upper arms are very thin, the forearms are claw-shaped, and the hands are relatively pointed. When the lower body is unfolded, it looks close to a ball gown, and the legs are slightly pointed. It just lies there quietly, motionless.

This sudden situation caused Xinye Miao and Acerola to stop playing, and this strange robot instantly attracted their attention.

"It's indeed Magearna!"
