Elf: Sailing since being taken in by New Leaf Cat

Chapter 51 Investigation, heterochromatic bean cricket
The sky was gradually shrouded in haze, and the sea breeze blowing from the beach made Qiu Qing, who was wearing thin clothes, shiver.

At this time, a drop of rain fell on the beach, and some silly Slowpoke and Swimming Weasels ran under the stalls that were not open, preparing to take shelter from the rain.

Not all water-type Pokémon like rain, especially Pokémon like them that are used to getting along with humans and live on the beach in cities.

Qiu Qing's store also ran into the ducks and sand dunes taking shelter from the rain. Naturally, he didn't care about these. He just looked at the photo of Cricket Man on the speaker in front of him, and seemed to have something more important in his heart.

Shali sighed softly, looked at the raindrops outside, and whispered: "It's raining..."

"Are you going?"

"Well, I left all my umbrellas in the hotel. If I stay a little longer, I might not be able to go back."

After saying that, Shali stood up, placed the spoon gently on the plate, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much. The pudding is really delicious."

"That's why cats are awesome."

"Meow~"

"By the way, can you tell me where the park in the photo is?"

Qiu Qing looked at the photo of Cricket Man on the Speaker and asked. He wanted to go over and take a look because he saw the person's inner self last night, but he always felt that he didn't look like a very vicious guy.

Shali told him the location without thinking too much, and then said: "The park has a nice view, but it's better not to get close to it before the Speaker Cricket Man is caught..."

She also gave a kind reminder. After all, the Speaker Cricket Man has escaped from prison and is missing. Although she still doesn't want to believe the result...it's better not to think about it for the time being and wait for the final result.

Sha Li shook her head, and then put all the photos back into her backpack, but handed the photo of the speaker Cricket Man to Qiu Qing: "I'll give this to you. I always feel like you care about it."

"Ah? Is it okay?"

"Take it, there's no point in keeping it anyway... Goodbye then, I'll see you again if we have a chance in the future, I'll come back to make a living~"

Listening to Sha Li's joking tone, Qiu Qing took the photo and asked curiously: "Are you ready to leave Niangguang City now?"

"Well, I'm going to Kitakami Township. I heard that there is a mysterious special Pokémon there. I want to confirm its existence and take a picture of it."

"That's it, then I wish you success!"

"You too, please be safe when traveling later. You should be more careful on this ship..."

"Don't worry, it's stronger."

After watching Sha Li leave and seeing the rain starting to fall, Qiu Qing sighed and looked at the photo in her hand, the smile on her face gradually disappearing.

Xinye Miao jumped aside, and just by looking at his expression, he roughly guessed what he was thinking. When Speaker Cricket Man was reviled by so many people for committing a murder, I'm afraid not many people would think that he was innocent, right?

"Meow~"

"You ask me if I want to investigate... I do have this idea. The main reason is that the contrast between the Speaker Cricket Man and me is too great. If it is really a cruel murderer, in cyberspace last night, I'm afraid we would have been He was chased and chopped.”

"Meow~"

Xinye Miao nodded lightly. There are indeed some problems with this. There are no restrictions on the inner manifestation. If the Speaker Cricket Man really wants to kill people in reality, then the other party in the cyberspace will definitely do the same, and he will not There are no restrictions!
Listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the wooden board, Qiu Qing put away the photo, and then checked the news on her phone. However, before he could click on it, a message that the speaker Cricket Man was wanted popped up on the notification bar.

He clicked in and took a closer look, then murmured softly: "It's still an A-level wanted order, and the reward... is so many zeros, I'm really willing to give it up."

I heard that Class A is already the highest level of reward for hunting down international criminals, which shows the extent of the impact of the Speaker Cricket Man incident.

After all, in a society that has been peaceful and harmonious for so long, something like this suddenly happened, and the impact was too serious. It will definitely be dealt with... After packing up the stalls, they returned to the ship. There was no awning on the deck. Olinio gave A small tent was set up in the garden and the fruit-gnawing insects were carried into the cabin.

Qiu Qing returned to the cabin and took out his umbrella. After careful consideration, he decided to go out. Although he was also worried about being targeted by the murderer, he still wanted to investigate whether the Speaker Cricket Man was really wronged.

"Then I'll go to the city first to see if there's anything you need to buy. I'll be there later..."

"Meow~"

Before he could finish speaking, Xinye Miao jumped onto his shoulder, and Bu Bo also patted his calf gently, expressing that he wanted to go together. Being afraid is one thing, but if you can overcome your fear... …

Seeing that they were about to follow, Qiu Qing nodded gently, picked up the cloth, then looked back at the cabin, and said with a smile: "Olinio still has fruit-gnawing bugs, so I'll leave it to you to look after the house."

"Linyu~"

"Crack..."

After explaining the matter, Qiu Qing went out with an umbrella. He had an inexplicable premonition that the Nianguang City might not be peaceful in the next few days...

After leaving the subway station, the light rain gradually turned to moderate rain, washing away the high-rise buildings like a torrent of steel. There were many less Pokémon playing on the street. Pedestrians walked on the sidewalk with umbrellas, and there was a lively light. The city suddenly became deserted.

Qiu Qing mingled among them, following the crowd and walking towards the park that Shali told him. Bu Bo stayed in his arms nervously, while Xinye Miao was observing the surroundings attentively.

It saw many police officers patrolling the streets with Meerkat Inspectors and Mastiff Godfathers, as well as some strange Pokémon looking for something secretly. They should be those Pokémon engaged in heroic activities.

"Meow……"

Maomao could see their nervousness and urgency, and it seemed that he had to find help today, lest he be targeted by the murderer and end up in a mess.

After a while, they finally left the street and came to a park located among many buildings. The scenery here was really good... but under the rain, it looked extremely deserted and lonely.

The park area is a bit large, but no one was seen. Qiu Qing walked on the cobblestone road in the rain, looking at the surrounding environment, looking for the place where the speaker Cricket Man taught the babies to sing in the photo, and soon he Found a deserted pavilion in the woods.

"I found it, it's here!"

After comparing the photos, he determined the location and couldn't help but feel happy. But when he was about to step forward, Xinye Miao on his shoulder suddenly noticed something and grabbed his face to make him stop.

Just when Qiu Qing asked what was going on, a sound suddenly broke through the air, and a golden figure passed in front of him, just shy of hitting him in the face!
"What!"

Qiu Qing was startled, and Bu Bo immediately jumped out of his arms, but as soon as he landed, a Pokémon fell from above and stepped on him.

"bean!"

This petite Pokémon let out a cold cry, and Qiu Qing looked down and saw that it was a small insect. Its abdomen had three sections of white, and most of the rest was golden!
Its third pair of legs are folded above the body, with a white ring pattern on it. There are four petals-like orange patterns around the eyes. The shape of the eyes is consistent with the pattern. Although the expression is fierce, it looks quite cute.

"Ok?"

Looking at this bean cricket, Qiu Qing was slightly startled. She habitually used her cell phone Rotom to take pictures to check the information, but she always felt something strange...

[Bean Cricket (different color): Locust Pokémon (a Pokémon adopted by Speaker Cricket Man, it has a somewhat rebellious personality and often fights with other Pokémon around it, but it will not bully the weak, but will protect welfare. Although my companions in the hospital were often taught a lesson by the Speaker Cricket Man after fights, they never resented each other for this. Instead, they admired each other very much)]

"Odd-colored bean crickets... Orphanage?"
