"Of course!" In the hotel room, Lillie nestled in Wei Xin's arms, her excitement over the news he brought was palpable. She buried her cheek in Wei Xin's neck and gave him a kiss.
"The island was created by the battle between two legendary Pokémon. Even Jirachi couldn't stabilize it directly due to Ho-Oh's power. I can't even imagine its potential for development."
Lillie analyzed the information provided by Devon Corporation.
"Look at the size of this island now, it's already close to a quarter of Alora's size, and there are other volcanic islands around it. Most importantly, according to the data, there may be a hotspot beneath this island, a volcano, which can provide stable heat. This also means that this island can expand again in the future and may eventually become an archipelago."
"The periodic eruptions combined with plate tectonics look like a ticking timer."
Wei Xin joked that he remembered the last island group formed on the same principle was called Hawaii. The economic benefits were obvious, and from an environmental point of view, it was very suitable for Pokémon to live and breed. That way, there was no need to worry about where to put Lugia when it grew up.
"In short, we absolutely must take this island," Lillie said. With the whole island, she would have so much more to do.
Looking at Lillie's expression, Wei Xin saw a hint of barely perceptible desire mixed with delight. He used his waveguide to test her emotions, and sure enough, the little girl had a mischievous thought.
"Do you have other plans for wanting this island?" Wei Xin asked.
"How did you know?" Lillie stared at Wei Xin's face in surprise. She saw him raise an eyebrow with an expression that said, "I know everything." Like a secret toy that had been discovered by her parents, she buried her face in Wei Xin's neck shyly, without saying a word. Only her reddened ears trembled slightly, looking delicate and alluring.
"You're not going to confess, huh? Looks like you want to be tortured."
As Wei Xin spoke, he grabbed Lillie's shoulders and was about to turn her over.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!" Lillie struggled frantically. She could still feel her body, and if it went on again, her body definitely wouldn't be able to take it.
"You know, my mom doesn't really approve of us. Now that we've gone that far, we can't hide it for long. Sooner or later, it'll be found out. Just now, Shui Lian texted me, asking how men are to me," Lillie said with a snort.
"So how did you reply to her?"
"I would never tell her how wonderful my man is!"
Beware of fire, theft, and your best friend; she's so delicious she hasn't even had enough herself.
"Although you're no longer a poor boy, and in terms of background and status, we're considered a good match, Mom has never cared about these things. She only cares whether you're obedient, whether she can control you, and whether she can control me."
Lillie wrapped her arms around Wei Xin's shoulders. She knew Wei Xin would never bow down to his mother, and she didn't want to see him say, "Have I ever told you I've become an international investigator?" Wei Xin said that Rosamune's foundation was doing a lot of illegal things behind the scenes, and he could easily have arrested Lillie's mother.
Bad women should be brought to justice.
"International investigators are useless. The research at the Ether Foundation is her long-cherished wish, and Mother won't give up. Besides, you know she's very rich. Money makes the world go round. Although the Alliance is indeed upright, like pure water in a cup, just one drop of ink can stain the entire Alliance and hinder their actions."
Lillie retorted, "Besides, she's still her mother, how could she possibly send her to jail herself?"
"So after you left, I couldn't help but overthink. If Mom found out about us, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble, and we might even be forced to separate. I was so scared, scared that my impulsive actions might put you in danger, scared that I would never hear your heartbeat again."
As Lillie spoke, Wei Xin felt the little girl's body trembling slightly. It was obvious that Lusamine's education and management had left her with psychological trauma. Sigh, Chinese education, what have you done to Lillie? Until Wei Xin saw Lillie hiding a small round metal piece in her hand and quietly touching his chest.
"Hey, hey, hey, that's all I'm saying. Put down those electrode pads in your hand." Wei Xin grabbed Lillie's restless hand and slapped it twice on the back of her hand.
That little brat only learns bad things and never good ones.
If you keep doing this, Lillie, I really need to discipline you.
Lillie, her little scheme exposed, clicked her tongue in displeasure: "I was just worried about your safety. Besides, I know you have so many girls around you."
Lillie counted on her fingers, "Mari, Cynthia's eyes are all wrong with you, she definitely has feelings for you. And then there's Higanbana, she's completely obedient to you. And Wanlong, Karuni, those two are still undecided, and that little girl named Lucia, I just saw the ribbon in your pocket!"
"Don't talk nonsense! I would never have a child with a junior high school student."
Wei Xin's body jolted violently. Oh no, he had forgotten that Lillie was exceptionally gifted at catching adulterers.
"Fine, so you admit you have feelings for other girls. And just because she's a middle school student now doesn't mean she will be in the future. What if she really does have feelings for you?" Lillie questioned.
"You men all like young girls, and there's also Shui Lian and Mao. Let me make this clear beforehand: you absolutely, positively cannot make a move on my best friends. I absolutely will not allow it. If you do, I'll fight you to the death (though I can't win). As for the other girls—"
"You don't care?" Wei Xin hid his surprise. Was this little girl really that generous?
"How could that be!" Lillie tugged at Wei Xin's cheek. "You jerk, you wish! If I don't care, it means I don't like you. Do you think that's realistic? Do you even know how much I like you!"
"I know, I know," Wei Xin admitted, holding Lillie's hand. "I like you too."
"You know nothing! Sweet talk doesn't work anymore!" Lillie puffed out her blushing cheeks and huffed.
"Anyway, I like you, and other girls probably like you too. You boys always make mistakes whenever you get the chance. If I could stop you, I would definitely lock you up somewhere no one can find you," Lillie threatened fiercely, baring her teeth and howling. "If you were any weaker, I would definitely drain you dry so you wouldn't be able to find other girls."
Unfortunately, she can no longer do either of these two things, nor is she willing to give them up.
"And I know you better than you think. Mary knew you before I did, they'd never guess I was the first to drink the soup," Lillie laughed smugly, then looked at Wei Xin, grabbed him, "But you'll definitely be tempted to sneak a bite. You guys from Donghuang dream of having a harem of beautiful girls. I can let it slide, but you have to promise me one thing: what belongs to me here, not a single piece will be missing."
"There's also double compensation for holidays, and Crazy Thursday!" Wei Xin's hands became restless, reaching towards the barely visible parts of Lillie's white shirt.
Shake hands with you.
"Don't hold my hand." Lillie slapped Wei Xin's hand away; she was very sensitive right now.
Wei Xin was helpless, trembling with anger and cold. "If you keep acting like this, when will boys ever be able to stand up?"
"Back to the island topic, so I was thinking, why don't we run away, run away to a place where Mom can't find us? Now it's great, we can develop the island, and once you've finished your work, we'll live on it, protected by Lugia and Rayquaza—and if it's not safe, we can develop our own power, just like Team Rocket—you definitely don't like Team Rocket's way of doing things, just like Team Plasma in Unova, whose main purpose is to protect Pokémon."
Actually, I don't like plasma clusters either.
Wei Xin thought to himself, "The Plasma Group is nothing more than an ambitious organization masquerading as the United Boys."
But Lillie's idea did inspire Wei Xin. Compared to a small team of people who were learning from Yulongdu and running around the world all day playing whack-a-mole, they never expected that while they were catching the soft and cuddly northern rats, a group of southern rats were eyeing them from the ground. Even his trusted rat-catching team was filled with a bunch of Tom Cats.
More than half of the Gym Leaders and Elite Four members in the entire region are members of Team Rocket. Lance is like Gin from the distillery; although he works hard and is serious, he really is like a red-nosed clown.
Building your own force, such as a large international peacekeeping force or a genuine Pokémon protection organization, is an excellent choice, whether for intelligence gathering or firepower engagements.
What if there's a Rainbow Rocket Team in this world?
"Excellent plan," Wei Xin praised. "So, do you want me to stay with you in Fangyuan a little longer until we finish our business before heading back?"
"No!" Lillie said, "It's too obvious. Dr. Kukui will find out. Secrets are made, but leaks are exposed. The doctor has a big mouth; he'll definitely tell Mother about us."
Wei Xin thought it was unlikely, because Dr. Barnett still didn't know that her husband was the Royal Masked Man.
"I can't just leave you alone in Hoenn—I'll arrange for Higanbana to protect you. Putting everything else aside, her strength and ability to act are definitely guaranteed."
"Then it's settled. I'll contact the lawyer and consultant now. Oh, and once it's done, you have to give me a bonus when I get back to Donghuang."
Lillie kissed Wei Xin on the cheek, then slipped out of his arms and excitedly began preparations. Once she and Wei Xin had truly built their own power, they wouldn't need to worry about their mother stopping them. She could even lead a group to take down the Ether Foundation and then lock her mother up. She would treat her mother the way her mother had treated her before.
You can't eat if you want to, and you can't play if you want to.
This is not revenge, it is protection.
Night, Alora, Ether Foundation, Ether Paradise. Lusamine felt a chill run down her spine, her body trembled, and she was startled.
Oh no, could something have happened to Lillie and Gladio? I need to find some time to go to Donghuang to check on them, especially Lillie. I don't want that brat Wei Xin to run away with her.
"What's wrong, Chairman? Are you feeling unwell? It's quite cold in Alola at night," the professor named Zaobo asked.
"It's nothing, continue your explanation," Lusamine said.
"Yes, Chairman." Zaobo said, manipulating the computer, "Because of the turmoil in the Hoenn region, the meteor energy within Deoxys has erupted, causing our world's energy to become abnormally abundant, even somewhat restless, like someone lighting a fire in a dark forest, attracting many other eyes."
"You mean—" Lusamine's face lit up with delight.
"Yes, Chairman, if our guess is correct, the Ultra Beasts have begun to move. The barrier of the world is being impacted and becoming weaker. Perhaps soon, it will be the best time for us to open the Ultra Void and explore the mysteries of other worlds."
