Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

Yang Ming bowed his head to apologize to the old couple and the girl in the breeding house, and finally paid them each a sum of money before leaving.

The old couple repeatedly declined, feeling that they were unworthy of it. The girl also wanted to refuse, but in the end Yang Ming took a tough stance and they accepted the money.

In Yang Ming's opinion, it was because of his own reasons that led to the failure, not to mention that his Lada scared the girl's little Lada, which made him feel even more guilty.

And from the girl's clothes, it was obvious that her family was relatively poor. As a person who worked his way up from the bottom, Yang Ming himself knew to hold an umbrella for others after being caught in the rain.

And as the deputy director of the most profitable Manjin branch in the Chengdu area, money is no longer important to Yang Ming now.

"I thought that as long as a few female little Ladas were arranged, the problem would be solved, but I didn't expect that the crux was not here at all." Yang Ming was a little discouraged, and he couldn't think of a better way to solve Lada's psychological problems now.

At this moment, Yang Ming's cell phone rang. It was from Yang Ming's adjutant Tokugawa.

"Boss, it's bad. The Manjin Department Store was attacked. The enemy injured several people and kidnapped several of our employees. They demanded that we pay a high ransom, otherwise they would kill us."

Yang Ming's face sank. The Manjin Department Store was also one of the properties of the Manjin Branch.

"Have Minister Wu Liyan and the two deputy ministers arrived at the scene?" Yang Ming asked.

"Well, they seem to be on a business trip. The minister has left the handling of this matter to you, boss." Tokugawa on the other end of the phone was also very confused.

"Got it, I'll be there right away." After hanging up the phone, Yang Ming drove to the Manjin Department Store.

When he got there, the entrance of the department store was already full of ambulances. The medical staff carried stretchers and sent the victims to the Pokémon Center.

The department store was in a mess, with broken glass and bloodstains everywhere. The valuable goods in the building were looted, and some shop assistants were hiding in the corners and trembling, obviously not recovered from the disaster just now.

Tokugawa ran over immediately and reported the situation to him, "According to eyewitnesses, although these robbers were masked, they were all locals from their accents."

"These robbers left an address and asked us to go to the designated location tonight with the ransom to redeem the people. Only one person can be sent to deliver the ransom, and the police cannot be called, otherwise they will kill the hostages directly."

"Because of this request, I specifically notified the police not to come."

Due to long-term acceptance of bribes, the Manjin City Police Department can now be said to be wearing the same pants as the Manjin Branch, so as long as there is a phone call here, the other party will cooperate very well and not take any action.

"You did a good job," Yang Ming nodded, "There should have been customers when the robbers attacked the department store, right? Were those customers kidnapped?"

"That's not the case," Tokugawa replied, "these robbers injured many people in the department store, but only kidnapped the department store employees. They only used violence to drive away the customers, and did not kidnap them."

Yang Ming's face changed. The other party only attacked the employees in the department store. Could it be an enemy?

He approached Tokugawa and asked in a low voice: "Are there any organized people among the employees kidnapped this time?"

"No," Tokugawa replied in a low voice, "All the kidnapped people are ordinary employees without organizational background."

"Okay, I know," Yang Ming said calmly, "Tokugawa, you go prepare the ransom, I will go to redeem them in person at night."

In the following time, he personally went to the hospital to express his cordial condolences to the injured employees and customers, and arranged all the follow-up work.

Late at night, in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Manjin City, several men gathered together to drink. Under the dim light, you can see the hideous scars on the bodies of these people and the sharp weapons on their waists.

"This money is really easy to make. I didn't expect that someone would pay us to rob. Even the route and security measures of the robbery were planned for us. I have never done such an easy job."

The speaker was a bald strong man with a hideous scar on his bald head, which looked extremely terrifying.

"Speaking of how are we going to deal with this group of people later?" Another person said while kicking a middle-aged man who was tied up.

Next to this middle-aged man, there were several people who were tied up. There were men and women among them. They were all employees of Manjin Department Store. At this time, they became hostages in the hands of these kidnappers, and their faces showed horror.

The big man who looked like the leader said indifferentlyHe said, "Didn't our employer say that? Once the money is in hand, they will be dealt with together with the ransom."

Hearing this, the hostages' faces suddenly turned pale, and their eyes were full of despair.

Just then, the shutter door of the abandoned factory was opened, and a young man came in with a large suitcase.

"As agreed, I brought the ransom," the person who came was Yang Ming, "You should also release all the hostages, right?"

"Release them?" The leading man laughed, "I only asked you to pay the ransom, but I didn't say I would definitely release them?"

"Boy, you should worry about yourself first."

The shutter door had already been pulled down, and the kidnappers surrounded Yang Ming.

Yang Ming also laughed: "Worry? Who do you think you are? Do you deserve to make me worry?"

Behind him, the Swamp King and the huge stinging jellyfish appeared at the same time and attacked the many kidnappers.

"Brothers, kill him!" The big man looked ferocious and growled, "Come out, Nidoking, use the power of the earth!"

At the same time, many kidnappers also sent their Pokémon to attack Yang Ming.

"Stinger uses Surf, Swamp King uses Turbidity!"

The two huge waves, one clear and one turbid, instantly swept all the kidnappers' Pokémon into it. For moves like Surf and Turbidity that can attack all the opponent's Pokémon at the same time, the more enemies there are, the more powerful they can be.

In just a moment, many Pokémon, including Nidoking, were wiped out.

The only one that didn't fall was a Sunflower Monster. With its resistance to water-attribute attacks, it successfully survived this wave of attacks and wanted to use the grass-attribute skill Ultimate Absorption to sneak attack Swamp King.

As long as this attack succeeds, not only will Yang Ming's Swamp King be severely damaged, but Sunflower Monster's physical strength will also be greatly restored.

However, the attack was blocked by the poisonous jellyfish before it hit the Swamp King. As the mud slurry property was activated, the Sunflower Monster fell down because it absorbed the poison from the poisonous jellyfish.

"Oh no, it's a master! Everyone, retreat!" The giant's face changed drastically, and he realized that he had provoked a killer who shouldn't be provoked. He released a toucan and was about to escape.
