Legend of the Elven Investigator
Chapter 2 Trainee Investigator: Shinpei
"Isn't it just complaining about the two-headed doll engraved by Zhenzuan, why did it come to the world of elves?"
The glass door of the Elf Center opened, and Shinpei rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned and walked out.
Three days ago, on the night when gf held the Pokémon press conference, Shinpei's mood soared to the sky when the reprint of the diamond was released.
"It's really a reprint, isn't it exactly the same as the version from more than ten years ago!"
After cursing and falling asleep, when he woke up, Shinpei had already descended into the real elf world.
It took three days for Shinpei to shut himself up in the room of the Spirit Center, and finally accepted the reality in desperation.
According to Shinpei's guess, his unexpected arrival should be the legendary soul wear.
After all, the current body is no longer comparable to that dead house addicted to the Internet in college.
Ignoring the strange eyes of passing passengers, Shinpei looked at the reflection on the glass door.The height is about 1.7 meters, but the facial features are delicate, and the messy black hair is the most satisfying point for someone who suffers from hair loss.
"I suddenly changed from a college student to a 15-year-old. Fortunately, there is no college entrance examination in this world. Otherwise, with my three-year learning ability, I am afraid that I would have to go to a factory to make screws." Shinpei laughed at himself, and he sorted out this information from various trivial items in his backpack in the past few days.
In general, just a little handsome.
goo~
There were screams in his belly, Zhenping tightened his coat, put his hands in his pockets and ran to a breakfast shop not far from the elf center, and said, "Ah, auntie, two buns, one with meat stuffing and one with vegetarian stuffing."
After receiving the hot bun, it was steaming hot, Shinpei put his stiff fingers on the plastic bag to warm him, and sighed involuntarily.
"Staying in this elf center is not an option. I thought the original owner of this body was just a kid who likes to travel. I didn't expect him to have a decent weave!"
Take out a special metal card from the jacket pocket, the name column on the left is clearly written
Trainee Investigator: Shinpei
In the upper right corner is his own photo, and a series of complicated numbers below indicate that this is an ID card.
In other words, Shinpei's current identity is a trainee investigator of the investigator organization.
Zhenping doesn't know much about this organization. According to some memories in his mind, the real background of this mysterious organization that never appeared in PM's original work is a special department that is independent from various regional alliances and directly under the headquarters of the Supreme Alliance.
What I belong to now is the Shenao branch of the investigator organization.
This Shinpei was an orphan since he was a child, and after passing the selection by accident, he joined this organization.
"It seems that no matter which world it is, these big companies are so good at squeezing newcomers." The word "apprentice" is very familiar to Zhenping.But all the jobs with these two words, all of them have less money and more work and are blamed. They belong to the kind of group that uses up a batch and then replaces a batch and then fools.
"Well, the city I stayed in should be Heijin City, the largest coal producing area in the Sinnoh Continent in the original book. The task assigned by the top and bottom is to let me investigate the situation inside the Heijin Coal Pit."
Shinpei feels a lot of headaches, as a trainee member of this organization, if he doesn't act according to the task instructions from above, I'm afraid the hope of becoming a full-time member will never be realized.
"There's nowhere to go now. If I don't have the pitiful apprenticeship salary from the organization, I'm afraid I will really drink the northwest wind." Shinpei buckled his wallet. There is no magic operation like electronic payment in this world, and the most widely used method is cash payment.
However, whether it is banknotes or bank cards, the deposits in them are pitifully small.What's more, Zhenping didn't know the password of the bank card at all, and the memory he received didn't have this part of it.
A penny beats a hero, this saying applies everywhere.
"But having said that, I have the opportunity to truly command the elves. This is an unprecedented new experience!"
Take out a poke ball, the standard red and white color scheme, about the size that can be held in one hand, the feel is similar to the texture of frosted metal, and a living pokemon is stored in it.
"Come out, Haoli!"
The poke ball opened automatically, and a flash of red light quickly solidified into a solid body.
Haoli's muscular body appeared in front of Zhenping's eyes.
"Ska!" Haoli greeted energetically. To Shinpei, the biting cold wind seemed rather cool to it.
The bulging muscles of this big muscular bully showed its terrifying strength in every move.Shinpei swallowed secretly, even though he was a powerful trainer, such a devilish muscular man was still very intimidating.
"In a short period of time, only Haoli can be relied on. I remember that Haoli's evolutionary form of monster strength is still very good, and it can be regarded as a top-notch existence among fighting elves." Shinpei recalled some memories of this kind of elves, and was quite happy.
Shinpei narrowed his eyes.
[Elf: Haoli/Gender: ♂/Level: LV30]
[Characteristic: Perseverance / Attribute: Fighting / Status: Health]
A line of simple information appears in the line of sight, not a visual illusion like a 3D movie, but actually appears on the retina.
Shinpei is also full of question marks about this. Although as a member of the time traveler, it is still a bit uncomfortable to be able to see the basic information of the elves with the naked eye.
But for him who doesn't have an elf illustration book, being able to see the information of elves intuitively is quite helpful.
This hero should be at the level of just evolution, and it is the standard level of ordinary trainers on the street.
He also bought a few steamed buns for Haoli to solve the problem of food and clothing, and Shinpei planned to officially start his mission.
The weather was quite cold, and there were not many pedestrians on the road. While jogging in the direction of the charcoal pit in the south of the city, Shinpei recalled the details about the charcoal pit.
The Black Gold Charcoal Pit is the one with the largest reserves in Black Gold City and the most complete mining facilities.Every day, a huge amount of coal resources are mined continuously and transported to various places in Sinnoh.
From Zhenping's point of view, this city is basically an energy-based mining city, which is extremely important to the entire continent.
Energy is the blood of industry, and the elf world also has a strong industrial level, and the living standards of residents have reached the level of the earth world at the end of the twentieth century.
"The reason why the higher-ups care about this energy center is probably not simple." Shinpei said thoughtfully.
"Never mind him, my mission is to go to this area to survey the situation, take a couple of photos and go back to do business, and I can't care about the rest." Shinpei shook off these strange conjectures, which should not be considered by a small person like himself.
The closer you get to the black gold charcoal pit, the denser the pipelines that Zhenping can see.Not only are there special rails on the surface for trains to carry coal back and forth, but also many oil and gas pipelines are everywhere, and even in several places, there are tall ventilation devices spewing out exhaust gas.
When he arrived in this area, Zhenping observed that Hao Li's breathing rate was significantly accelerated, obviously because he was not used to the exhaust gas in the mining area.
"Well, it's finally here. Oh, and here's another notice." Shinpei made some effort on the notice board, and finally figured out what was written on it.
This notice board was placed by the Black Gold Charcoal Pit official. It basically means that foreign trainers are allowed to operate in the edge area of the charcoal pit and non-mining areas.
But inside the charcoal pit, the area where coal is being excavated, and the construction site are not allowed outsiders to enter.
Going south along the road, Zhenping entered the interior of the charcoal pit.
"According to the map, there are several routes to enter the coal mine. This one seems to be an old road, and no one walks it." Shinpei held a special camera distributed by the organization in his hand. This camouflaged machine does not look like a shooting device at all.
This is also for the smooth progress of the investigation task. After all, not all places can take pictures at will.
The interior of the charcoal pit is dimly lit, and the lights placed at intervals provide valuable light.
After a few clicks, Zhenping pressed the shutter to take a close-up of the surrounding environment.
"Who knows what the higher-ups are doing to shoot these things? I'm a dignified trainee investigator, and I'm here to do these sneaky things. It's really overkill!" Shinpei wandered back and forth in the coal mine passage for a few times, and selected some iconic objects and signs for shooting.
After staying in the underground mine for a while, Shinpei estimated that he took hundreds of photos and sent them back to his superiors. This investigation task can be regarded as an account.Just when he was about to turn around, Hao Li, who had been following him making soy sauce, suddenly stopped Shinpei, and his eyes indicated that there was something going on inside the passage.
"Why? Could it be that there are other people in this place?" Shinpei asked in confusion. After a long field trip here, he finally figured it out. This passage has been abandoned for various reasons. Logically speaking, no other workers would pass by here.
Zhenping was just about to find a place to hide, but suddenly he slapped his head and realized that he didn't come here to sneak around, so did he need to hide when he came to inspect and take pictures in the coal mine?
"Hey brother, you have set up that thing, the cadre has personally explained it, we can't make any mistakes."
"Tch, I'm the most reliable at what I do. When I bring this thing back, a promotion and salary increase are just around the corner!"
Two unfamiliar voices sounded in the passage, and Zhenping was shocked suddenly, and faintly heard their conversation.
cadre?
Shinpei muttered and thought about the words, the words sounded familiar.
Before Shinpei could finish thinking, the source of the voice appeared before his eyes.Two men in silver-gray uniforms with weird satellite heads emerged from the depths of the coal mine passage.
As soon as they saw Zhenping standing outside, the two of them reacted extremely violently, stopping their steps as if they had seen a ghost.
"Come on, do those investigators already know?"
"Master Huoxing will definitely kill us!"
Shinpei took a closer look, and the dressing style of these two people reminded him of a certain organization involuntarily.
Galaxy Team!
How did this group of people appear here?That is a dark organization that is entrenched in Sinnoh, and even the Sinnoh Alliance is difficult to uproot.
Seeing that these two people were planning to fight, Shinpei screamed in his heart that something was wrong, this is not a game, and the possibility of being silenced by the villain is more likely.
"Are you two also here for special training? May I ask if there are elves like Longlong Stone in it? I really want to subdue one." Shinpei spoke first, making up an identity to try to fool the two of them.
"Pedestrian trainer?"
"It's okay...it's not those guys."
The two let out a long sigh of relief. In this kind of place, it is normal for ordinary trainers to appear.The vigilance in their hearts was lowered, and the two Galaxy team members ignored Zhenpei and quickly continued to run outside.
Shinpei was stiff all over, and finally recovered after the two left.
"It's almost time to start a fight with these two guys. With just one strength, my chance of winning is almost zero." Shinpei knew his own strength in his heart, and it would be too whimsical to stop the two members of the Galaxy Group.
"But... what is that?" Shinpei recalled carefully, remembering that a member of the Galaxy team seemed to be carrying a special black suitcase in his hand.
Shinpei's heart was turbulent. If he encountered such an unexpected situation during the mission, if he continued to stay, he might fall into unknown troubles. It was absolutely impossible for the two Galaxy teams to appear in this remote mine passage for no reason.
Boom—boom boom boom!
The nearby coal mine channel suddenly made a loud cracking noise, and bursts of dull and terrifying movements came from the depths.This coal mine channel actually has a sign of collapse!
Fine rock fragments fell from the ceiling of the cave, and the dim lights flickered back and forth, and the strong feeling of shaking the mountains swept Zhenping for a while.
"run!"
Shinpei immediately spread his legs and ran towards the exit. He could tell the source of the strangeness with his toes, and it must be inseparable from the Galaxy team.
"Boom!" Shinpei flew out immediately, knocking himself away from his original position with a strong force.
what happened?
Shinpei struggled to get up from the ground, and his eyes fell back to the original position. A large rock with a height of half a person fell from the ceiling of the cave and hit the ground hard.
Haoli roared at Zhenping, motioning to run with it.One person and one elf turned around and ran towards the depths of the charcoal pit instead.Haoli is far more sensitive to the vibrations of the environment than humans, so Shinpei gritted his teeth and followed.
Sure enough, not long after, Zhenping, who had already run a long way, noticed the direction of the exit, and there was a violent sound of rocks breaking.
"Thank you, Haoli..." Shinpei gasped and thanked Haoli.
This time, his life was actually saved.
The vibration of the charcoal pit passage subsided slowly, and Shinpei covered his mouth and nose with his jacket to block the floating rock debris.A large amount of dust is mixed in the air, making it extremely cloudy to the naked eye.
"Fortunately, the light is still there, otherwise..." Shinpei murmured in his heart, only to hear the crackling sound, the last light above his head could no longer bear it, and the cave was plunged into darkness.
Hao Li's eyes gleamed in the darkness, staring at the trainer full of resentment.
You are such a crow mouth...
"Fortunately, I also brought a portable flashlight, which can last for a few hours. There is no other way, the way out has been completely blocked, let's continue walking inside, maybe we can find another exit." Zhenping comforted Haoli, and he was also comforting himself.
The internal passages of the Black Gold Coal Mine are intricate, because of the needs of mining, there are even passages at different depths. For Zhenping at this moment, going inside is the only choice.
The glass door of the Elf Center opened, and Shinpei rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned and walked out.
Three days ago, on the night when gf held the Pokémon press conference, Shinpei's mood soared to the sky when the reprint of the diamond was released.
"It's really a reprint, isn't it exactly the same as the version from more than ten years ago!"
After cursing and falling asleep, when he woke up, Shinpei had already descended into the real elf world.
It took three days for Shinpei to shut himself up in the room of the Spirit Center, and finally accepted the reality in desperation.

Take out a special metal card from the jacket pocket, the name column on the left is clearly written

The internal passages of the Black Gold Coal Mine are intricate, because of the needs of mining, there are even passages at different depths. For Zhenping at this moment, going inside is the only choice.
