Chapter 17. Mako

---

When the big man saw the person coming, he took a few steps forward and said, "Captain Mako, why did you come here so late? Isn't this not in line with your Japanese style?"

"Haha, look at what Captain Ohno said, making me seem to be deliberately not paying attention to the boss's mission? This is really an injustice to the little girl!"

The woman in red, named Mako, cast a wink at the big man and the thin man.

"Didn't I spend some time and take a good bath? I just don't want to neglect my position!"

The big man obviously knew who this woman was, so he frowned and did not answer.

"Forget it, it's important. We have brought the things over. Do you want Captain Mako to check them?"

As he said that, the big man glanced at the thin man.

The thin man understood, immediately opened the car door and took out a metal box from the car.

"Third brother, open it and let our Captain Mako take a look."

The thin man nodded: "Yes, brother."

"Wait a minute, I can't see anything just by looking at it, so let the people under me check it." Mako waved her hand and said to the two people in coats following her: "You two, go inspect the goods."

"Yes." They both replied in unison.

The big man said: "Third brother, open the box and let them check it."

The two people in big coats were obviously experimenters. They walked over with some machines in their hands.

Cyan also knew these clues, which were used to test the Pokémon's qualifications.

The thin man entered the tonnage code, and the metal box made a "ding" sound before being opened by him.

What appeared inside was a Pokémon egg in a hatching egg.

"This should be the perfect Pokémon egg!" Although Cyan was hiding deep in the grass, he really wanted to see what such a Pokémon egg looked like. But he also knew that if he dared to make a little sound now, he would definitely die without a burial place, so he could only suppress the curiosity in his heart.

After a tedious inspection, the two experimenters looked at each other, and then one of the tall men said to Mako: "Captain, the thing is correct."

After hearing this, Ohno laughed and said, "Okay, then just bring the things over."

"Wait a minute!" The big man immediately interrupted.

The thin man heard the sound and hurriedly closed the box again, and then hugged it again before the two experimenters could react.

After seeing this, Mako's expression changed: "Captain Ohno, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean? I would like to ask what Captain Mako means. The boss said before that we should take good care of this Pokémon egg together!"

Mako chuckled: "Why, does Captain Ohno think that what I want to do can't be accomplished?"

"That's not true. It's just Captain Mako's behavior that makes it difficult for me to hand over things to your men. I think it's better to leave the things in our hands until the boss comes back."

"It seems that Captain Ohno is quite dissatisfied with what I did on the day?" Mako showed a strange smile.

The big man did not answer, but looked around: "Captain Mako, we have been delayed enough, do you and I still want to talk nonsense here? It would be bad if someone finds out!"

"Okay, then I'll listen to Captain Ohno," Mako smiled and waved to the two people: "You two, come back first."

"Yes." After the two people packed up their things, they returned to Mako's side.

"Captain Ohno, let's go now, shall we?"

"Third brother, get your things and let's go." The big man ordered the thin man.

"Yes, brother, don't worry."

The thin man showed a meaningful smile as he walked. No one knew what he was thinking at the moment.

Afterward, the five of them walked into the forest together.

…

During this period, Cyan didn't dare to make any moves. Only after he couldn't see the lights emitted by the five people did he dare to come out quietly.

He checked the off-road vehicle but found nothing of value.

"In this case, I should call the police and ask Miss jenny to come and handle it, but..."

Cyan fell into deep thought. The benefits of calling the police were self-evident, but it also meant that this incident would have nothing to do with him from now on.

He finally met a Pokémon with perfect qualifications. If he said he didn't care, it would be completely false. What's more, Cyan, who had been observing the thin man all the time, didn't think that the thin man would hand over this Pokémon so easily.

Maybe there will be some unexpected developments in the future?

"The so-called wealth is obtained through risk. If you don't want to take risks, how can you get more gains?"

After some thought, Cyan determined his next action.

"First of all, I need to determine where they are going."

Although the lights disappeared, it was still dark, and the light was very visible. Cyan secretly recorded the direction they took in his heart.

With the help of the cover of grass and big trees, Cyan crept forward.

Five minutes later.

"I remember the lights disappeared near here? Where are the people?"

Cyan looked around but couldn't see anything suspicious.

"Is it underground?"

After careful analysis, Cyan felt that this group of people could only have gone underground. It was impossible for them to be in the sky, and not on the ground. So where else could they be except underground?

He said to Butterfree beside him: "Butterfree, use Supersonic to see if the ground is empty."

Butterfree nodded, then used Supersonic.

"Butterfree, is it empty down there?"

"Hey!" Butterfree nodded.

"Okay!" Cyan praised Butterfree with a smile.

"It turns out that there is really a cave underground... However, I don't know how to open the passage. Now, if I go in, I will be discovered immediately..."

He wouldn't bet that there would be no one guarding the entrance to the passage.

"Does it mean that I can only wait here, or inform Miss Junsha to come...?"

Cyan fell into deep thought again.

…

Underground.

"Captain Mako, aren't you usually very busy here? Why don't you see a few people at this moment?" The big man followed Mako forward while constantly scanning the surroundings.

"Captain Ohno, are you still pretending to be stupid with me? Although I didn't go to the operation during the day, I sent many of my men there. They didn't come. I haven't asked Captain Ohno to explain, yet Captain Ohno asks about me first?"

At this time, the thin man interrupted: "Why, does Captain Mako have any objections to my eldest brother?"

The big man waved his hand: "Captain Mako, you don't have as many people as I do, so do I have more people than I have?"

"This operation was planned by the boss. Almost more than 80% of our personnel were mobilized, and the amount of money wasted was unknown. Before taking action, we jointly promised the boss that no matter how much the loss was, as long as we succeeded in the end, they would make up for us, and no one is allowed to complain! Have these captains forgotten?"

Makoto turned her head and laughed: "I haven't forgotten this, but it was just a joke with Captain Ohno. Do you need to keep bringing the boss out to suppress me, Captain Ohno...?"
