Chapter 231 Encounter with Little Blue

Just as Lu An rescued Imai and the others, and Crimson and Azure were engaged in a fierce battle with Athena, a young girl was walking through the floors of the Silver Building.

"Hehe, let you fight to the death, I, the beautiful girl Xiao Lan, have no habit of fighting head-on."

"A thief's job is to find the best things in the house without being caught and steal them."

"Let me see where the Rockets' most valuable asset is?"

Just as Little Blue was whimpering.

"Stop right there! Who are you?!"

A Rockets player called her to stop and approached her from behind.

"Slowly turn around! Don't move your hands!"

The Rockets members nervously pointed their guns at the girl, looking ready to attack at any moment.

The girl, with a gun pointed at her by Team Rocket, slowly turned around, revealing her face to the Team Rocket members.

"Let me see what kind of monster you are! Ah, you are, you are, an Athena cadre!"

Standing before the Team Rocket members was none other than Athena, one of the four executives!

Athena narrowed her eyes, looking at the Team Rocket members with a hostile expression:

"Tell me, what kind of demon or monster am I?"

The Rockets players were immediately thrown into a panic:

"Um, um, Athena officer, I didn't know you were also in Silverbury, and the figure I saw from behind just now didn't quite look like you..."

Athena's expression immediately became even more dangerous:

"Tell me then, why aren't you like me?"

The Rockets players were sweating profusely.

"Yes, I will look slimmer than usual..."

Athena's expression was like that of a ferocious beast ready to devour its prey:

You mean you think I'm ugly?

The Rockets members were terrified, let alone pointing guns at Athena.

Offending his superior was a death sentence, let alone the ruthless Athena.

"Athena, please forgive me!"

Just as the Rockets members were filled with anxiety about their lives, Athena, who had been looking fierce, suddenly relaxed:

"Never mind, you didn't mean it. You were just doing your job properly. I don't mean to blame you."

The Rockets players looked up in surprise:

"Athena cadre!"

Athena nodded slightly:

"I just came from the Goldenrod Gym to see Apollo. I've finished talking to him now and I'm about to go to Silver Tower."

Upon hearing this, the Rockets members immediately stood up:

"In that case, let me show you around."

Athena shook her head:

"No need. The investigators downstairs could come up at any time. You still have a mission to complete, so don't let me delay your mission. Just do your best."

With that, Athena turned and left.

"Yes, Athena officer!"

The Rockets members stood still, respectfully seeing Athena off.

"Phew, that was terrifying. Luckily, there were some monsters around."

After "Athena" walked away, her face suddenly distorted and gradually revealed a beautiful face underneath, like a melting candle, which turned out to be Little Blue.

On her shoulder, a Ditto was excitedly waving its arms and legs.

Just now, when the Rockets members arrived, it covered Little Blue's face in time, disguising him as Athena to escape the disaster.

"Let's go, let's keep looking."

The brief incident didn't affect Xiao Lan's mood, and she wandered around the Silver Building with renewed enthusiasm.

......

After seeing Imai and the others out of the Silver Building, Lu An led his men to explore the building's floors.

Fearing that Apollo and his crew might tamper with the elevator, they all took the stairs.

Just as Lu An and the others reached the seventh floor of the Silver Tower and still hadn't seen any other Team Rocket members,

"boom!"

A mechanism suddenly opened beneath their feet, swallowing Hirabe, Dongqing, and the others whole, leaving even Lu An no time to react.

When he stood up, he was shocked to find that there were no investigators around him.

"Little monster."

Lu An summoned the Swamp Monster and had it strike the ground beneath their feet.

"Ratchet!"

As the rubble fell, a small hole appeared beneath their feet.

However, Lu An did not see Hirabe and the others who had fallen into the cave, presumably lured away by some unknown means.

"Why is a company that sells things focusing on defensive products instead of making money?"

Lu An gave the Silver Building a thorough dressing-down.

It's obvious that this was just a trick Apollo came up with to isolate him from the other investigators.

Despite this, Lu An remained calm and did not show any concern for the others.

Hirabe and the others are at least first-class investigators, so as long as they don't go up against Sakaki, it's relatively easy for them to survive.

With that thought in mind, Lu An calmly continued walking forward.

All we need to do is bring those Apollo guys out as soon as possible.

Just then, Lu An suddenly saw a figure flash by.

"Who?"

Lu An looked closely and discovered that it was Athena, one of the four executives of Team Rocket.

I was just thinking about them when one of them suddenly appeared in front of me.

Lu An, eager to make his move, immediately took action:

"Swamp Monster, use 'Water Gun'!"

Athena on the other side immediately showed a panicked expression, as if she had not expected to encounter Lu An head-on.

"Little turtle!"

A Blastoise bravely stepped forward to shield Athena from the Swampert's "water jet."

Lu An was a little confused. Did Athena have Blastoise in her Pokémon team?

However, he didn't think much about it. He didn't care whether it was true or not; he just wanted to win her over.

"Little monster, stick to it and use 'Brick Break'!"

"Ratchet!"

Swampert's powerful fist slammed into Blastoise's hard shell.

"boom!"

A muffled thud was heard, and the ground where the two were standing dented.

Swampert's force was so great that it almost pierced through the ground, even through Blastoise.

The force that even the ground couldn't support fell mostly on Blastoise, so how could it possibly feel any better?

Athena even felt as if she could hear the sound of a tortoise shell cracking.

This almost broke her heart:

"Why is there a Swampert here with such immense strength? This is just too much!"

"I just wanted to steal something, why did I run into such an unreasonable guy who started a fight right away!"

The girlish, crisp complaining voice was quite incongruous with Athena's appearance.

Lu An, who was on the other side, was stunned when he heard the voice.

A girl, Blastoise, stealing.

When Lu An connected these three things, a sudden inspiration flashed in his mind:

"Swamp Monster, wait a minute!"

"Tch?"

Swampert, which had been pressing Blastoise so hard it could barely breathe, slowed its attack.

Blastoise quickly ran back to Athena's side, looking at Swampert with lingering fear, clearly still unable to recover from Swampert's powerful strength.

Looking at the "Athena" with her girlish expression, Lu An hesitated before calling out:

"Little Blue?"
