Pokémon: Gyarados Evolution

"Jon, why are you here?"

Jon hadn't waited long before Mi's mother hurried back home.

Her face was a little tired, but she was a little surprised to see Jon.

"Auntie, I want to ask what happened to Mi Lei? I told her that we would go to the Sinnoh region together, but she didn't answer the phone and didn't reply to the message."

Jon immediately stood up from his seat and stared at Mi's mother.

"She was taken away by her teacher just after she got home two days ago."

Mi's mother sighed helplessly and said with a forced smile, "This child said she wanted to keep up with you. Maybe she has started special training again?"

"Then can you contact her?"

Jon became more and more anxious. He knew that Mi Lei's teacher was Athena, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Could it be that Banmu suspected her?

Once this thought came up, it lingered in his mind, making him anxious.

"I can't help it..."

Mi's mother sat down slowly with a complicated look, and her heart was suffering at the moment.

In the past few days, their family has been doing well in business, and the industry has expanded a bit, which should be something to be happy about.

However, now all this has been overshadowed by Mirei's affairs.

If it was a normal promotion by Banmu, and it had nothing to do with Mirei, they would naturally accept it with joy.

But now the situation is completely different, involving Mirei, they are in a dilemma.

On the one hand, they cannot live up to Banmu's trust, and on the other hand, they are really worried about Mirei's safety and situation.

Mirei is their treasure, especially Mi's mother, who has long regarded Mirei as her own child and treasured her because she has no fertility.

But now, facing Banmu's majesty, they don't even have the courage to ask a question, and can only wait silently in this endless worry, looking forward to Mirei's return every day.

"Let's eat at Auntie's place tonight? Mi Lei's father will be home soon."

Mami tried to force out a smile. Although her heart was filled with worries, she still did not forget the basic hospitality and had to treat Jon well.

In her heart, Jon was the person Mi Lei liked, which made her pay special attention to Jon. On the other hand, Jon was also Banmu's pawn. No matter what, she would not show any malice to Jon.

"I..."

Jon hesitated slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

He already knew their true identities, but he didn't dare to say it easily at this moment.

He didn't know the attitude of Mi Lei's parents towards him, nor did he know whether they were Banmu's loyal subordinates.

"Then excuse me."

After a short silence, Jon weighed the pros and cons and finally decided to stay.

It's better to stay here for a few days. If Mi Lei doesn't come back, he will make other plans at that time. He can only leave first.

Now that he knows the purpose of Mirei being around him, he plans to use this to let Banmu clearly see how much he cares about Mirei.

In Jon's opinion, this may add a layer of protection to Mirei invisibly, so that she can be in a relatively safe situation with Banmu and not fall into danger.

After all, Jon's position in the Hoenn Alliance is now very important and well-known.

Even President Kawachi attaches great importance to him and specially arranges a team for him, which is undoubtedly a manifestation of his status.

As a member of this team, Mirei naturally has more opportunities to contact the top leaders of the alliance.

For the Rocket Team, which has the whole world in mind and is ambitious, this is simply a godsend, an excellent opportunity to get its members into the core circle of the alliance.

With Jon behind her, Mirei seems to be naturally labeled as a disciple of Mura and Daigo in many occasions and tasks.

The blessing of this dual identity makes it easier for her to act in the alliance, and also gives her a more special value and significance in the layout of the Rockets.

She can use this to go deep into the various tasks of the alliance, quietly collect intelligence for the Rockets, and expand their sphere of influence.

Behind all this, it is inseparable from the huge network of influence that Jon will build in the alliance in the future.

......

"Have you thought about it?"

Athena leaned against the door gracefully, and a trace of heartache appeared on her usually cold face. Her eyes were locked on Mirei and she asked softly:

"It's been three days, don't you know? Your heart has long been seen through by the boss."

"See through it?"

Mirei's head, which was originally lowered, suddenly raised, and a flash of sudden enlightenment flashed in her eyes, "I said, why did you suddenly let meThe people who killed the alliance were trying to block my way into the alliance. "

There was a hint of self-mockery in her tone, and her hands unconsciously clenched, with mixed feelings in her heart.

"You are Team Rocket, this is a fact that cannot be changed. If you really want to survive, you can only listen to Boss Banmu. Becoming a cadre is not a bad thing."

Athena paused slightly, stretched out her slender fingers, and pointed at the Pokémon balls on Mirei's waist that were slightly glowing under the light, "Don't forget, Articuno and Dodoli were given to you by the boss. Jon is a rising star in the alliance, and you, aren't you a rising star in Team Rocket? The boss just doesn't want you to go the wrong way, and gives you a chance to reflect. "

Her eyes revealed a hint of complex emotions, both admonishing Mirei and interpreting the boss's deep meaning.

She was telling Mirei that this was her only way out at the moment, and a way for her to realize her self-worth in Team Rocket.

"Jon is here. "

Athena was talking to Mirei when her cell phone rang. She picked up the phone and after a few words, a complicated expression appeared on her face. She said slowly, "He has already lived in your house."

"Why is he here?"

Mirei heard it and subconsciously grabbed her skirt. Her fingers slightly exerted force, making the folds of the skirt more obvious. Her eyes revealed a trace of panic and entanglement, "But I..."

"Go back, as long as you don't betray, you can still be with Jon, and even get married. There is no problem."

"As long as I don't betray?"

Mirei slightly raised her head, looked at the ceiling, and sighed deeply, as if she was fighting fiercely with her heart. After a moment, she gritted her teeth and said resolutely, "Okay, I will only be Mirei of the Rocket Team in the future, but I have a request."

"You say." Athena raised her eyebrows and waited for Mirei's next words.

"Don't hurt Jon and my parents! "

"As long as he doesn't become an enemy of Team Rocket and your parents don't betray Team Rocket."

Athena stared at Mirei and promised solemnly.

Itsuki had already explained these issues, and John's main mission location would not be in the Kanto area.
