Chapter 628

Several identities for the thin man flashed through Su Hao's mind.

The man stumbled toward Su Hao, his face showing obvious panic and a glimmer of hope.

Before Su Hao could open his mouth to tell him to watch out for the mischievous Drakloak.

Drakloak, hiding in the other dimension, seemed to know that if it didn't act now, it wouldn't have another chance, so it went straight into its performance.

On the pitch-black mountain path, the eerie wind suddenly increased, and a shrill sound like a baby crying rang out. Before the incredibly nervous man, a ghostly shadow wrapped in endless dark shadows suddenly appeared.

"Awooo~~~"

Drakloak, deliberately lowering its voice, made a sharp sound like fingernails scraping across a blackboard, making one's teeth ache.

"Ahhhh

Ah!!! There's a ghost!!!"

The dirty man immediately let out a terrified scream. The sharp high pitch even drowned out the atmosphere Drakloak had created, leaving it baffled.

Fortunately, Su Hao was far away, otherwise, his eardrums would have been hard-pressed to escape this disaster.

Su Hao looked at the man, who was covered in tears and snot, and didn't know where to start.

After thinking about it, Su Hao walked up quickly with Riolu, patted the man who was squatting and covering his head in a comforting way, and apologized: "Sorry, that was my Pokémon scaring you just now, not a ghost."

Hearing this, the man who was still screaming froze for a moment and looked up at Su Hao.

"...... Re...... really? You're not lying to me?"

Whether it was because Su Hao's words had the power to soothe people, the man breathed a sigh of relief, his body instantly relaxed, and he sat on the ground.

"Drakloak, come over and apologize to him." Su Hao looked at the ghostly shadow and said irritably.

Knowing that it would get scolded if it kept messing around, Drakloak immediately dissipated the Ghost-type energy around its body and gave the man a charming, evil smile, with an expression that said, "I know I was wrong, but I'll dare to do it again next time."

Seeing this, Su Hao sighed.

He didn't know who Drakloak learned that from.

After the man calmed down, Su Hao looked him up and down and asked curiously: "What happened to you? How did you get so...... disheveled?"

Su Hao's words seemed to activate something. The man suddenly remembered what he wanted to do, tugged at Su Hao's sleeve and said: "I...... I am Nika, a researcher at the Pewter City Science Museum. I have been patrolling here for the safety of Mt. Moon."

"May I ask...... do you have any way to contact the Pewter City Police Department?" The man calling himself Nika looked at Su Hao with tears in his eyes, pleading.

"Everyone has been deceived by Team Rocket. Snatching the Evolution Stones and fossils dug up by Trainers is just a smokescreen. Their goal is the Clefairy clan and the giant Moon Stone living in Mt. Moon Square."

Su Hao frowned slightly. He remembered this researcher named Nika; he was a character who appeared in the sixth episode of the original series.

He himself had a very good relationship with the Clefairy...... so what he said shouldn't be a lie. Team Rocket had probably occupied Mt. Moon Square.

Su Hao suddenly remembered the bounty he saw at the Pewter City Police Department yesterday.

"Those Team Rocket leaders, are they a green-haired man with a pigeon-tail hairstyle, and a blonde woman with the same pigeon-tail hairstyle, and that woman also has sea urchin twin tails?"

"I remember, their names are Yamato and...... Kosaburo!"

Su Hao looked at Nika, his pupils filled with inquiry.

"Pigeon-tail hairstyle......?"

Nika blinked, not quite understanding what Su Hao meant.

"It's a center part!"

"Now that you mention it, it seems that the Team Rocket members who gave the orders indeed had these features!"
