Chapter 636 Interrogation
In the eerie silence, Natsume finally stopped his "punishment" and put his straight-across, center-parted hair back on the chair.
"Pikachu!!!"
As soon as she sat down, her swollen, red bottom made intimate contact with the chair, and her middle-parted hair "flew" up.
Natsume took a deep breath to calm himself down, his gaze sweeping over the guilty-looking Zapdos, Hoopa, and Tyranitar before finally settling on the middle-parted bird that had landed again.
His tone regained its calmness, yet carried an undeniable authority: "Now, who can tell me..."
'
"First, what exactly is this organized crime syndicate you've set up?"
"Secondly, why sell those fake feathers?"
"Thirdly, what do you know about that Darkrai?"
All eyes were focused on the man with the middle parting.
The atmosphere in the cellar, which had just been a farce, returned to its core.
"Gana..."
"Hoo-hoo..."
The four Pokémon looked at each other, and finally the one with the middle parting stepped forward.
It didn't explain, but simply walked forward, clutching its bottom, and handed two small feathers to Natsume and Ran respectively.
"What are you doing?"
Natsume looked at the dyed bouncy feathers handed to him with a strange expression.
"Pikachu..."
'
Now that you've joined, can you please stop asking about membership tokens?
The man with the middle parting looked at Natsume with an "honest and simple" expression.
66
'
What do you think?
Natsume looked at the other person with a helpless expression.
Beside her, Zhu Lan covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Pikachu..."
'
With a middle parting, he seemed resigned to his fate, turning around and lying dead on the round table.
Behind him, Little Huba hesitated for a moment before stepping forward to explain.
"Well, it's not really the middle-part hairstyle's fault..."
'
Little Huba scratched his head sheepishly.
"It was me. I was the one who first called him to participate in the boss's special training."
As Hoopa spoke, he pointed to the composed Bangiras standing to the side.
"The boss said that he has unified all the Dark-type Pokémon in the major cities of the Unova region," and everyone is helping each other and living better than before.
"But in other regions, many cities still have a lot of stray Dark-type Pokémon... and luckily I have the ability to travel between them."
"So, you're planning to establish a criminal organization in our Sinnoh region!?" Cynthia's voice suddenly rose, interrupting Hoopa.
"Organized crime?" Little Huba looked at Zhulan in confusion, clearly not understanding what the term meant.
Helpless, Zhu Lan looked at Natsume.
Natsume looked at Banjiras helplessly.
Bangiras sighed and looked at the man with the middle parting.
With a helpless look, the man with the middle parting looked at Natsume.
The ball was kicked back to his feet, and Natsume's lips twitched.
"Miss Zhulan, I think our most urgent task is to solve the nightmare incidents in the city."
Natsume spoke, trying to divert attention.
As expected, Zhu Lan was taken aback, nodded, and didn't ask any more questions.
Seeing that the topic had been steered in the right direction, Natsume pulled back his hair and said seriously, "Alright, now begin. Answer my three questions without any excuses or irrelevant remarks."
"Pikachu..."
'
With his head drooping and his middle-parted hair down, he nodded helplessly.
"Tell me, why are you selling those fake feathers?"
"Don't tell me it's for making money."
Natsume raised his eyebrows slightly.
If it's a matter of money, the allowance I give to the middle-parted guy is more than enough to support this group of new underlings.
"Pikachu. Pikachu pikachu pikachu..."
'
(As you can see, those dyed feathers are merely our initiation tokens.)
Through a telepathic connection, Natsume and Takeran instantly understood the meaning behind the middle parting hairstyle.
The two exchanged a glance and looked at the Dark-type Pokémon gathered around them. Indeed, each of them had a feather decoration around its neck.
"Pikachu pikachu..."
'
(For some reason, rumors started circulating that the feathers around the necks of these Dark-type Pokémon were Cresselia feathers, and many people began looking for places to buy them.)
"Pikachu..."
'
(Not making money when you can is too good to pass up...)
After saying that, the man with the middle parting looked innocently at Natsume.
Natsume:
'
'
"Hiss...but?"
Cynthia seemed to have thought of something strange. She stroked her chin and muttered to herself, "But these Dark-type Pokémon don't seem to be affected by nightmares, do they?"
She pointed to the lively Dark-type Pokémon around her, which were completely different from the Pokémon she saw on the street that were extremely irritable due to lack of sleep.
"Pikachu..."
'
A middle-parted hairstyle and a shrug indicate that it knows nothing.
"Alright, so how much do you know about that Darkrai?"
Natsume shook his head slightly, not intending to delve deeper, but instead asked the most crucial question.
"Pikachu!"
This time, the man with the middle parting shook his head very seriously.
"It's not just Darkrai...you said you smelled two scents?"
Natsume and Takeran exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.
Based on the information gathered from the middle, there is not only one Darkrai here, but also a force that is on par with it.
Cleric Crescentia?
The answer is obvious.
"That's strange... why do I only have nightmares?"
Natsume muttered to himself.
Why did only the Nightmare God and the Dream God have an effect when both were present?
This is clearly not a normal phenomenon.
"Anything else?"
Natsume stared intently at the man with the middle parting.
"Pikachu".
With a shrug, the man with the middle parting shrugged, stretched out his short hand, and pointed to the silent Dakdo not far away.
"Um?"
When Dakdo finally noticed him, he was slightly taken aback.
Soon, his expression stabilized, and he regained his usual coldness.
"Ahem... help me untie these knots first."
No one paid any attention.
"Untie me first, don't you understand?"
Dakdo frowned and raised his voice.
Still no one paid any attention, except for Natsume, who stared wide-eyed at the other person.
"Mr. Dacto, what will we gain if we loosen the bonds?"
Clearly, Natsume wants the information that Dark has.
However, it seems that the divine beast man still has no awareness of sharing.
Dakdo's face stiffened, and he remained frozen in his chair for a long while.
"Tsk." Natsume shook his head slightly, but his curiosity only grew stronger.
That's strange, this guy is actually so concerned about that Darkrai.
To be precise, what the other side cares about are the two priests, Darkrai and Cresselia.
Natsume glanced discreetly at the four red and white balls placed on the round table by the man with the parted hair.
Two of them were the ordinary Darkrai and Cresselia that Darkrai had captured.
Seeing that Dakdo still refused to budge, Natsume didn't care.
Anyway, he has plenty of time to waste.
"Why is my picture displayed there?"
With nothing to do, Natsume and his friend started chatting.
"Pikachu..."
My heart tells me about some of your deeds because of me and them.
As he spoke, the man with the middle parting pointed to the large group of Dark-type Pokémon looking up at Natsume.
"Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu..."
Then they insist on treating you as a spiritual totem, and the "mountain" that Bangiras originally prepared can no longer be used.
"What deeds?"
Natsume believed it was due to his legendary adventure experience or his superb scientific research skills.
"Pikachu." (Eighty-eight cats were neutered at Oak's lab in one day.)
"Pfft!" Zhu Lan couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Natsume touched his nose silently.
The research institute was indeed short-staffed at that time, and Dr. Oak was indeed inhumane.
The group chatted and laughed as if no one else was around, but when Dakdo saw this, he closed his eyes tightly.
It seems a fierce internal struggle is taking place.
"Alright, besides this city, or besides Sinnoh, have you guys been to other cities in the region to develop... uh, the Godfathers?"
Natsume's voice then rang out.
Seeing that the group seemed capable of holding out indefinitely, Dakdo finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Wait a minute, I'll cooperate with you!"
