Chapter 5: Faster corners are really fast

From the outskirts of Hau'ole to the city, the map shows that the distance is close to ten kilometers, which is not too far. After all, Melemele Island itself is not big.

After walking from the seaside to the road above, you can still see a coconut egg tree bus stop on the roadside.

On the other side is a village-sized residential area with many bright flowers planted around it and a few ordinary-looking cats running around and playing around.

It's just that the Motorcycle Lizard didn't seem to have seen these things before it. It ran to the bus stop with an excited expression, held the bus stop sign and started biting it, scaring away the little Du'er who was resting above.

"???"

Seeing this, Hoshino was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran over and tried to pull it off with all his strength.

"Hey, you can't eat this!"

"Mo Lizard Mo Lizard~"

"Listen to me, don't mess around..."

He held his forehead and shook his head for a while, almost forgetting that the Biker Lizard was in a state of amnesia. This was fine in the wild, as he could rely on the Pokémon's instincts to adapt quickly.

But if after entering the city, if you see something curious and want to rush over and bite it, you may cause a lot of trouble. It seems that you need to educate yourself...

It was now mid-afternoon, and the sun was scorching like fire, scorching the earth.

One person and one lizard walked forward along the road, sweat sliding down the skin and dripping on the ground leaving a trace, but it quickly disappeared.

Hoshino felt like he was about to be dried out, but there was no place to enjoy the shade on both sides of the road, and the coconut trees used as decorations had no shading effect at all.

Now that he was still more than half way away from Hau'ola City, he decided to go to the distant woods to rest for a while. The weather in Alola was really too hot.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of rapid running from behind, and Hoshino and Motorcycle Lizard subconsciously looked back.

I saw dust rolling up in the distance, and a Kentero was the first to bear the brunt, heading this way.

After getting closer, I discovered that this Kentero was equipped with a blue and gray seat as if it were wearing clothes.

A young man wearing a blue and white striped short-sleeved shirt was sitting above him, wearing a black baseball cap backwards. He seemed to be on his way in a hurry.

However, Hoshino didn't pay attention to who the opponent was, and focused more on the Kentero, especially the riding suit.

"Pokémon Ride?!"

He was a little surprised, since this was the first time he saw it, but Kentero was very fast and passed by him in the blink of an eye, leaving only a cloud of dust behind.

"Ahem..."

Hoshino closed his eyes and coughed twice, fanning the dust with his hands, and couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Aren't you afraid of hitting someone when you run so fast?"

But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly discovered that the Motorized Lizard was on all fours, staring at Kentero who was retreating in front of him, showing his fighting spirit!

It landed on all fours and assumed a posture ready to run. Then it turned back and signaled for Hoshino to get on it quickly. This expression seemed to say, "Boss, the car is ready."

"Mo Lizard!"

"Just say that everything is ready, right?"

The corners of Hoshino's lips rose. Unexpectedly, he almost forgot that Biker was a mount Pokémon, and he also had the talent of [Mounting EX].

I was really confused. I had thought earlier that I would have reached Hauale City by now, so there was no need to walk there in the sun.

"Elbow! Let's catch up!"

"Mo Lizard!"

Hoshino rode directly on the back of the Motorized Lizard. He couldn't see that this was a competition between Pokémon. Because Kentero can run fast with people on board, he wanted to beat the opponent in the field he was good at!

However, the motorcycle lizard is not wearing a riding suit now, so he can only hug its neck to ensure that he will not be thrown off due to too fast speed.

"I remember that the people in Padea seem to install armrests and footrests on the motorcycle lizards to facilitate movement. I will also install one another day..."

Just as Hoshino thought of this, a strong gust of wind suddenly hit, and everyone else was almost thrown out. The Motorcycle Lizard ejected and ran straight ahead, and its speed continued to increase!

Although it has a tire-like decoration in front of its body, it actually runs with its hands and feet. Only Milton can run on wheels...

"Quick...too fast...slow...slower...I can't hold it anymore..."

Hoshino barked all kinds of things. The speed of the motorcycle lizard was already over 100 kilometers per hour. He had no protective measures at all, and his hairline had moved up a lot.

The boy sitting on Kentero in front of him and Kentero noticed the movement behind him at the same time.

Just when he was about to turn his head to look, a figure swooped past with an unknown voice.

"So fast, what?!"

He and Kentero were stunned for a moment, then looked forward, bursting into fighting spirit at the same time, shouting: "It's interesting, but we won't lose, let's catch up!"

"Moo!"

As Kentero also began to speed up, the positions of both parties began to pull in, and two beautiful scenery lines with dust were instantly appeared on this road!

Then the boy suddenly said hello and shouted: "Alola~ I haven't seen you around here. Are you a new move here? I am Xiaoyang, and I go to the Pokémon School in Hola City. You are..."

"I'm...I'm about to die..."

Hoshino couldn't speak clearly. The only thing he could do was to hold on to the motorcycle lizard tightly and not let go.

When Xiaoyang was about to continue asking, a curve suddenly appeared in front of us! As long as we passed here, we would soon reach the city of Hauale City.

But as long as trainers who are familiar with Pokémon riding and racing know the truth, only fast corners are really fast! Who can't go fast in a straight line?

"No one is more familiar with this road than me. When he starts to slow down, we will use the drainage channel to turn around and pass him in one go!"

Xiaoyang's expression was quite confident, but the next moment he was stunned, because the unknown Pokémon in front of him had no intention of slowing down at all!

"How dare you do this! The road is so wide! Why don't you slow down and rush into the sea?"

No matter what the people behind him think, Hoshino has gradually adapted to it through riding the EX talent.

It's just that he still can't perform well because he doesn't have a riding suit, but the Motorized Lizard doesn't have to worry at all, he's driving automatically and has full firepower!

The moment it entered the curve, it was able to complete the curve instantly at a speed of 120 degrees, which was no different from running in a straight line.

Hoshino on his back was not greatly affected, but he felt like someone was running in front and his soul was chasing after him, and he was about to lose consciousness.

Seeing the distance between the other party and himself getting wider and wider, Xiaoyang's expression became more and more surprised: "Could it be that he is a professional Pokémon rider..."

Although he said that, he and Kentero would not give up. After turning the corner, they pursued them with all their strength. In the distance, they could already see the tall buildings of Hauola City, and the end was right in front of them!

Motorized Lizard and Kentero were one behind the other, carrying their respective trainers and moving forward at full speed.

As we get closer and closer to the city, more and more riding Pokémon and vehicles appear around us, but we can only avoid them in a panic.

Under the spotlight, at the moment when the winner was about to cross the line, Miss Junsha, who was eating donuts while on duty, suddenly discovered her target!

She walked to the middle with Detective Meerkat, raised a red warning sign and shouted: "You two, don't you know the speed limit on urban roads is 50! Stop right now!"

"ah?"

Hearing this shuddering voice, Hoshino Hun finally caught up with him and brought him back to his senses.

When he saw it was Miss Junsha, he was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became panicked: "Where should I brake? Which brake is it!"

Xiaoyang behind realized something was wrong and quickly stepped on the brakes to slow down Kentero. However, Hoshino's motorcycle lizard did not wear a riding suit and could only be controlled by voice, but it was too late...

The Motorcycle Lizard crossed the finish line at full speed. It had lost its memory and didn't understand much at all. It simply ran over Miss Junsha and Inspector Meerkat.

Listening to the two screams, Hoshino only had two simple words in his mind at the moment...

"Sent..."

Watching the Motorized Lizard moving away towards the city, and Miss Junsha twitching on the ground, Xiaoyang and Kentero stopped in place. At this moment, together with other witnesses around them, they all showed extremely shocked expressions.

"Speed-speeding assault on a police officer and hit-and-run... How should this crime be punished?"
