Chapter 222 Eye to Eye
It was with the cooperation of Taiyo Eevee and Sabrina that they were able to make it seem as if they had walked out of the stadium, and to trick Ito into coming to the corner of the stadium without any flaws.
Originally, each Rockets member was within sight of at least two other members outside the stadium, so if anything happened to one of them, it would immediately alert everyone.
However, after Ito was eliminated, each Team Rocket member was left with only one person watching.
With Espeon and Sabrina doing their best, it became much easier to use their psychic powers to disguise themselves and take down one person in the corner of someone's eye.
Therefore, from the perspective of Heibe and the others in the forest, a Team Rocket member was knocked unconscious by Sabrina without even uttering a groan.
However, from the perspective of that member's companion, he was clearly still standing upright in the same spot.
After a few moves, the Rockets players outside the stadium won the game without breaking a sweat.
Hirabe and the others immediately rushed to the wall of the gymnasium, where there was a staircase that led directly to the second floor, and there was glass that allowed them to observe the interior environment.
Lu An tiptoed to the second floor outside the gymnasium and cautiously peered inside.
Hundreds of students were gathered on the first floor of the gymnasium, their faces filled with worry.
Several Team Rocket members stood in different corners on the first and second floors, holding guns, surrounded by their Pokémon.
Very precise positioning.
Just as Lu An was carefully observing the positions of the Team Rocket members, preparing to memorize their locations and inform the other investigators, he suddenly noticed a gaze fixed intently on him.
Lu An tilted his head slightly and looked towards the first floor.
A familiar face was staring blankly at him.
"..."
Lu An clearly saw that Gangjie, that silly boy, was tightly hugging Mutou's arm, staring intently at him through the second-floor window.
"..."
Gōsuke hadn't expected that his desire to take a closer look was purely out of fear of being surrounded by a group of Team Rocket members. He thought that even if the Team Rocket were to kill him later, he wouldn't be completely helpless.
Who knew that when he looked up, he would see half a head appear on the glass directly opposite him.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was his roommate, Lu An, who was sneakily peering into the gymnasium.
Gangjie was overjoyed at first, but then panicked.
He knew perfectly well that the area outside the stadium was full of Rockets players, so why was Lu An on the second floor of the stadium?
Once the Rockets find him, Lu An will be finished!
Therefore, subconsciously, Gangjie nodded at Lu An outside the window, bared his teeth, and signaled Lu An to run away quickly.
Outside the window, Lu An watched as Gangjie inside the building shook his head and swayed at him, behaving as irresponsibly as ever.
"Why is this guy so happy to see me? He's been kidnapped by Team Rocket, yet he's still laughing so happily."
Hey! What are you doing?!
Gangjie, who was still shaking his head, was startled.
On the second floor, a Team Rocket member standing next to Lu An was holding a gun and glaring menacingly at Gangjie.
"You dare to bare your teeth at me? Are you tired of living?"
Seeing the dark muzzle of the gun and Lu An ducking back, Gang Jie quickly raised his hands:
"It's a misunderstanding, sir. No, it's a misunderstanding. Sir, I just got numb from squatting and was trying to relieve it. I didn't mean to bare my teeth at you."
Seeing Gon's cowardly appearance, the Team Rocket members grunted twice, enjoying the thrill of swaggering around in the crowd before letting Gon go.
After retreating back into the crowd, Muto looked at Gosuke beside him:
"What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?"
Gōsuke whispered in Mutō's ear:
Do you know who I just saw?
"Who?"
"I just saw Anzai."
"What! He didn't escape?"
Surprised, Muto raised his voice a little, almost attracting the attention of everyone around him.
Gangjie pinched Mutou, signaling him to be quiet and not to make a scene, then slowly said:
"I don't know either. That kid just appeared outside the second-floor window, but I just gave him a look to signal him to run away. Don't worry."
"That's good."
......
"Based on my observation, there are hundreds of students locked up inside, as well as six Team Rocket members on the second floor and four Team Rocket members on the first floor."
“A friend of mine just saw me and yelled at me to save him. We have to act quickly.”
As he spoke, Lu An had Espeon use its psychic powers to move sand from the nearby training sandpit and create a simple sand table.
"The Team Rocket members are positioned like this... If you have Flying-type Pokémon coming, stand in your positions outside the stadium. The Team Rocket members are on the second floor above you."
"Once I give the order, you will break the glass, jump into the second floor, and take down all the Team Rocket members on the second floor."
Holly asked:
"What about Team Rocket on the first floor?"
Ningren and Luther, who had always been by the investigators' side, volunteered:
"Let's join the fight!"
However, the opinions of the two team members, who possessed the skills of professional trainers, were ruthlessly ignored.
Lu An's gaze was deep:
"If your operation goes smoothly enough, all the Team Rocket members on the first floor will be attracted by your actions, and they will definitely relax their surveillance on the students."
"I'll take care of those guys when the time comes."
Ning and Luther were quite disappointed when their enthusiastic proposal was ruthlessly rejected.
Despite being among the best students in the school, they could only watch helplessly as the investigators took action, unable to join them.
This isn't just a simple one-on-one Pokémon battle in the arena; it's a life-or-death struggle.
Ning and his colleagues possess professional skills, but lack experience in fighting terrorists.
Even though he had recently left behind his rookie days and become a third-class investigator, Ryuzawa had already carried out several combat missions and accumulated enough experience.
Not to mention the other experienced investigators.
After finalizing a battle plan that wasn't entirely meticulous but was sufficient, Lu An gestured to all the investigators.
All the investigators occupied a corner outside the stadium, and inside the second floor where they were located, were the positions of the six Rockets members.
"Bi Diao".
"Warrior Eagle".
"..."
The investigators each released their Flying-type Pokémon, crouching low and awaiting Lu An's instructions.
As for Naz, it's even simpler.
She floated directly outside the second floor, looking at Lu An with a calm gaze.
'three'
Lu An was gesturing.
'two'
Everyone was ready to go, and even Luther and his two companions hiding in the woods were nervously swallowing their saliva. They no longer cared about their displeasure at being looked down upon by the investigators.
'one'
"action!"
