Chapter 4327 Goodbye, Noble Duo!
Chapter 4327 Goodbye, Noble Duo!
After coming out wearing miner's clothes, Xiao Zhi was initially a little worried.
Am I too young and too conspicuous?
They hadn't gone far when they ran into two patrolling miners.
When the other person saw him, they were only stunned for a moment.
"Hmm? Are all the new hires these young guys?"
"President Rose has been acting strangely lately~"
The two muttered a few complaints and then quickly stopped responding to him.
At most, I only glanced at the Pikachu on his shoulder and the Victini on his head, and casually reminded him:
"Don't wander off, Pokémon! There are still a lot of machines running around here, it's dangerous."
Ash nodded obediently and picked up Victini in his arms:
"I see."
After the two miners had walked away, he stood there scratching the back of his head.
Uh, is the security really that lax?
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
This place wasn't some kind of secret fortress; it was just a mine that had been fenced off by the authorities.
It's like a normal business, with security guards at the entrance.
Afterwards, Xiaozhi wandered around the mine a few more times, and he had to admit, the art style on the south side of the mine was indeed quite different.
The lights were bright, the mine cars were moving normally on the rails, and there were many operating machines all around, making it quite lively.
When he encountered other miners, he tentatively asked a few questions before learning the whole story—
Skillful!
It turns out that the Galer mine had recruited a lot of new workers during this period, so there were already many people in the mine who did not know each other.
Strangely, there are no new veins to be mined in the mine, yet many new worker positions have inexplicably been created.
"Yeah, and now the manager has turned into those two weird-haired guys!"
"Tsk, just seeing those two faces makes me want to punch them. What's with all the arrogance!"
"Hmph! I wonder what his relationship is with Chairman Rose, that he was able to parachute in like this."
A few miners huddled in a corner, slacking off, and complained in hushed tones.
Xiao Zhi stood nearby eavesdropping, pretending to check the toolbox by the wall.
Upon hearing this, his eyes immediately lit up.
The description of "strange hair and arrogant attitude" perfectly matches those two people!
She's the kind of person everyone hates!
"Sure enough, those two guys were hiding here!"
Ash secretly credited You for her dream.
No wonder we couldn't find any trace of Sord and Syldi anywhere else; they'd hidden in a place like this.
but
He was parachuted in to be the general manager of the No. 1 mine?
This is something that only President Loz should have the authority to arrange.
"strangeness."
Xiao Zhi touched his chin, looking confused.
President Loz should know very well that these two people fabricated the historical legends of the Galar region, so he shouldn't have any goodwill towards them.
What? They actually appointed two people as officials instead?
In short, once we find the person, things will be much easier!
Xiao Zhi quickly asked a passing miner for directions. The location was easy to find, but it wasn't inside the mine.
So he stopped wandering around the mine and walked straight out along the railway tracks.
Emerging from the mine, the space suddenly opened up before us—
Outside was a large open space, where many large transport and excavation vehicles and tools were parked, as well as railcars loaded with ore, moving outwards.
You can even see a railway line extending from the south side of the mine.
If you follow this road southeast, you will reach Machine City.
Many of the raw mineral materials mined here will eventually be sent there.
After all, Mech City is the largest industrial city in the Galar region, and you can usually see many large factories emitting steam when you enter the city.
Ash turned his gaze away and looked at the other side outside the mine.
There was a large area of tin shacks where miners lived, each a single room, arranged neatly like mahjong tiles, simple yet practical.
There was a two-story house next to it that stood out conspicuously.
Is that the place?
Xiao Zhi narrowed his eyes. According to the miner, the two upper-class nobles usually lived in that house.
He doesn't usually need to go into the mine to work; he just needs to stand on the second-floor balcony at regular intervals, give speeches, and direct the people below to work.
Of course, most of it was meaningless nonsense.
Xiao Zhi: "."
He had already clenched his fists instinctively when he heard that description.
These two really don't disappoint when it comes to making people angry.
So, Xiao Zhi moved closer to her without leaving a trace.
Fortunately, the civil engineering guys around him were all busy plastering and tiling, and no one noticed him, the miner who was "slacking off".
After successfully reaching the side of the two-story house, he first scanned the surroundings.
After confirming that no one was watching, Ash moved with lightning speed, grabbing the pipes on the outer wall and vaulting up to the second floor like Aipom, before squeezing through the half-open window.
"Easy peasy~"
After landing, Ash smiled and patted the dust off his hands.
The room looks like someone's bedroom.
While it certainly can't compare to a real villa, it's considered top-tier treatment in a place like a mining construction site.
"Pikachu!" "Piccolo!"
Pikachu and Victini also joined in.
"Shh!"
Xiao Zhi quickly raised his hand, signaling them to be quiet.
Then, he tiptoed to the door and listened for a while.
Outside, you can hear laughter and conversation, as well as the sound of a television.
The voice was very familiar.
"The power of waveguides!"
Ash closed his eyes, and a wave ripple spread out as he sensed it.
really.
Soder and Syldi are in the adjacent hall right now, probably watching TV.
And since there's no one else in the house, that makes things easier!
Ash and Pikachu exchanged a glance.
"Pikachu~"
Pikachu immediately understood, a sly expression appearing on its little face.
So Xiaozhi grabbed the doorknob and twisted it sharply.
Click.
The sound of the door opening made the two people in the living room instinctively turn their heads to look.
In the next instant, a yellow afterimage darted out at lightning speed.
"Use electromagnetic waves!"
Pikachu flipped over in mid-air and flicked its tail, unleashing two electric nets that simultaneously covered the two of them.
"Hey! It's that country bumpkin with the electric mouse!"
"Ahhh!"
Sord and Hilde had barely caught a glimpse of Ash and Pikachu when they were struck head-on by the electromagnetic wave.
The two of them convulsed all over, and even their hair stood on end.
Ash then came out of the room and gave Pikachu a thumbs up.
Done!
Sud and Syldi, paralyzed, lay on the sofa, unable to move.
At most, only his eyeballs can still move.
As they glanced sideways at Xiaozhi approaching, the two upper-class nobles trembled slightly.
"Damn it. It's you again. You bastard."
"Trespassing on private property is utterly uncouth." (End of Chapter)
