"Two seniors, what does this failure mean?"
Ash couldn't help but interrupt and ask, but this made everyone in the elevator look at him.
An employee wearing an "R" shirt turned around with a rather unfriendly look on his face and asked,
"Boy, you look unfamiliar? Are you from our Rainbow Group?"
"Oh, I'm an intern at Rainbow Group this year, and I just reported in today."
Ash rolled his eyes and said, "I'm just following your advice."
In this world, 10 years old is considered an adult, so it's not a big problem to get a job as an intern at the age of 10.
However, this explanation obviously did not satisfy everyone. When the elevator reached the sixth floor, several employees with rainbow "R" names engraved on them came in. The elevator, which was not very big to begin with, seemed a bit crowded.
The employee with a stern face exchanged glances with the new employees around him, surrounding them. Then all their eyes were focused on Ash, and it seemed that a group fight in the elevator was about to break out.
It feels very oppressive.
"It's okay, trust me."
Ash suddenly revealed a confident smile and beckoned to the employee who had a stern look at him at first. For some reason, the latter subconsciously moved his head closer and listened attentively.
"Long live Team Rocket."
Hearing Ash's confident words, the member with a bad face shuddered suddenly and looked at him with a bit of shock and confusion.
Seeing that this sentence was not enough to impress the other party, Ash took another drastic measure and leaned over and whispered:
"Stinky fish, stinky fish, I am a rotten shrimp."
"!"
The man's face changed instantly. This code had only been released for less than a month. Only members of Team Rocket knew it. It was absolutely impossible for outsiders to know it.
The way he looked at Ash also changed slightly.
Those who can join Team Rocket at this age are either talented or have connections.
Looking at Ash's naive appearance, it was basically confirmed that he was a relative of a certain key cadre, or perhaps the illegitimate son of a certain key cadre?
The man's eyes immediately became flattering.
You should know that in the Kanto region, those with the character "Huo" in their name definitely have a higher status than those with the character "Cai" in their name.
"Haha, we're all in the same business, so I'll just say it straight. The failure is actually that special Eevee."
The man began to speak out the information from his heart.
Eevee has many evolutions, and in the remote Kalos region, there is a very special fairy-attribute evolution.
There is a fanatical scientist in the upper echelons of Team Rocket who has taken a fancy to the Fairy attribute and developed a special evolutionary radio wave that can allow the irradiated Pokémon to take on the power of the Fairy attribute.
"Fairy attribute.?"
Ash immediately thought of his own Butterfree, it seemed that it was not a natural product.
"But the development of this wave seems to have failed in the end, and no test subjects have gained fairy attribute power. It is said that the big man has now left the Kanto region and gone to the Johto region to research new evolutionary waves."
It is said that it is the power of a Pokémon called Great Brute.
The name sounds scary.
The man went on to explain:
"And the only test subject that survived was that Eevee."
Ash's body trembled, thinking that we had finally reached the point.
"Although it didn't complete its evolution, that Eevee unexpectedly gained the ability to degenerate after evolving."
In fact, this ability looks intimidating, but it actually only works on Pokémon like Eevee.
The stronger the Pokémon is, the better, so there is no need to consider degeneration, except for Pokémon like Eevee, where each evolution is a completely different individual and needs this ability to cope with different situations.
"Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch. The Eevee has also lost its mind and has become extremely violent. It bites people at every turn and cannot be stopped without a few good lashes with the whip.
Whip?
Ash's eyes suddenly became serious.
"Yeah, I went to see it once before. The look in that Eevee's eyes was really annoying, as if it was looking down on people." Someone nearby interrupted.
"Yes, that's the look. Farfetch'd. A Pokémon actually dared to show that kind of look to us humans. I whipped him with my whip."
"Haha, I also went to smoke a few times a few days ago, and it felt pretty good."
"What a pity, the Eevee has been sent away, there will be no more sandbags in the future."
"Hahahaha."
The elevator was filled with a happy atmosphere.
Ash: "."
Listening to the laughter around him, his face suddenly turned extremely pale.
He is a rookie trainer who has just started out. He never assumes the worst of others. In his heart, human nature is kind.
However, he did not expect that human nature could be so cruel that they would beat and bully a Pokémon just because of a look.
Can we still talk and laugh about it?
Misty, who was standing by, obviously noticed that Ash was in a very bad state. She had never seen Ash look like this before, so she quickly grabbed his hand and asked him to calm down.
The elevator just happened to reach the first floor, so she quickly pulled Ash out of the elevator.
"Don't be impulsive."
Misty kept comforting the blue-faced Ash and pulled him towards the Pokémon Center.
The Pokémon Center Hall.
Ash, who had calmed down a little, threw the Poké Ball. A red light flashed, and a small beast-type Pokémon appeared in front of him. It was covered with brown fur and had a circle of yellow fluffy mane around its neck.
But the fur, which should have been soft and beautiful, was now very dull.
Appearing in the new environment, Eevee first looked around, then fixed its brown pupils on the human in front of it, and let out a threatening roar, gritting its teeth, looking very ferocious.
This Pokémon, which should be very cute, looks very grumpy.
"Is that the look?" Ash murmured.
This was a look that was hostile to everything, even stronger than the one Gengar showed at the beginning, and it even carried a hint of disdain, to the point of soul-stirring disgust.
Is it misanthropy?
"It's all over, Eevee."
Ash forced himself to smile, opened his arms and slowly walked over, trying to comfort Eevee.
The latter was like a frightened bird, with the fur on its back standing up and a fierce look in its eyes. When it got closer, its pupils instantly turned a violent blood red and it actually bit the back of Ash's hand.
"Eevee!"
It bit so hard that it tore a bloody mark on Ash's palm, and blood dripped onto the floor.
"Pika!"
Pikachu got angry on the spot, with electricity rushing from his cheeks. He was planning to teach Eevee a lesson with a Thunderbolt.
"Pikachu!"
Ash shouted coldly, interrupting Pikachu's action, then waved his hand to signal Misty not to get close, allowing his palm to be torn by Eevee.
If he wasn't a physical training sorcerer, a normal person would probably have lost a hand.
"hiss"
The severe pain from his palm made Ash frown. He then stretched out his other hand, took a deep breath, endured the severe pain and calmed himself down. He waited until his palm stopped trembling before he began to slowly stroke Eevee's back.
"It's all right."
He said softly and comfortingly.
If you look closely, you can see that Eevee's body, hidden under its thick fur, is covered with scars from being beaten.
"Eevee!"
Soon, Eevee gradually stopped its violence, the redness in its eyes disappeared, and there was a hint of doubt in its eyes.
But it still looked at Ash with an unfriendly look. Then it forcibly broke free from his restraints, trotted to a dark corner of a table, turned its back and stopped looking at them.
"Eevee."
Ash slowly stood up and let the blood from his palms fall to the floor.
"Miss Joy, quick!"
Misty quickly called Miss Joy over to do a simple disinfection and bandage, while Ash stood like a wooden man and let the two of them handle his hand.
He had already made a secret decision in his heart.
Suddenly, he moved and threw Eevee's Poké Ball to Misty.
"I'll leave Eevee in your care for the time being. I have something I need to take care of."
His voice was so cold that even Misty felt it was unfamiliar, and she could only take the Poké Ball in a daze.
"Has Senior Red possessed me again?"
Then she shook her head. She could still distinguish the aura of Red and Ash. It was still Ash now.
"No, your wound must be stitched, and that Eevee might have a problem. You must get a rabies shot now, otherwise your life will be in danger in the future."
Miss Joy quickly stopped him.
It is common sense that you need to get a rabies vaccine after being bitten by a wild or canine Pokémon of unknown origin.
Ash just quietly tied a knot on the bandage on his hand, forcibly tightening the wound to stop the bleeding. With the vigorous operation, blood spurted out again and dyed the pure white bandage red.
But the bleeding stopped temporarily.
"I remember that the rabies vaccine can be given within oneday, right?"
He suddenly asked calmly.
Miss Joy replied subconsciously:
"Yes, it must be within 25 hours. No, you plan to..."
ash interrupted her, pressed his hat slightly, and an unprecedented fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.
"25 hours? That's enough. It's just a Rainbow Group."
He slowly pushed open the door of the Pokémon Center, and the Pikachu next to him understood and jumped onto his shoulder.
