Chapter 93: A Gift from a Friend

Yeranran looked at the scene before her in disbelief.

Who could tell her why Qiao Sang would be on Huangming Mountain?!

And the Pokémon that just knocked out the Thunderbird, it definitely looked like Qiao Sang's Firefang!

The scene before her was so shocking that she was momentarily stunned.

The middle-aged woman who had come with her quickly rushed to Qiao Sang's side after getting off the Wind Carver and asked, "Child, did you call the police?"

Qiao Sang was still basking in the joy of her Firefang's successful takedown. She was startled by the sudden voice.

She turned her head and saw a medium-built, slightly plump policewoman in uniform.

"It was me!" Qiao Sang replied.

She didn't expect anyone to show up even though her call was cut off halfway. In her previous life, there was no such efficiency.

The middle-aged woman breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the girl who called the police was unharmed.

"Firefang!"

At that moment, Firefang ran to Qiao Sang, staring warily at the sudden arrival.

"Where's Zhou Xian?" The middle-aged woman glanced at Firefang and asked.

She quickly analyzed the situation based on her years of experience.

The Thunderbird was unconscious, and there was another black Pokémon on the ground. There was also a Firefang that didn't belong to this level of battle.

There must be another Beastmaster on this mountain who could match Zhou Xian, and they must be of a high level.

The black Pokémon on the ground must belong to that Beastmaster, but the person was nowhere to be seen. They must be fighting Zhou Xian somewhere on the mountain.

She needed to hurry and help.

Maybe they could capture Zhou Xian without waiting for the others to arrive.

Qiao Sang pointed to the grass behind her and said, "Over there."

Firefang relaxed as it watched its Beastmaster interact with the newcomer.

The middle-aged woman was taken aback and immediately looked back with caution.

When she saw the man lying on the ground with two lumps on his head and his hands tied, she was stunned for a moment.

This is Zhou Xian?!

The middle-aged woman took a deep breath and quickly approached, crouching down to take a closer look.

Although the man lying on the ground looked quite pitiful, his usually handsome face was unmistakable.

It really was Zhou Xian!

The middle-aged woman was shocked.

Why was he unconscious? What were those lumps on his head? And... why did the bindings look so much like shoelaces?!

On the way here, she had imagined countless scenarios, but she never thought it would be like this!

At this moment, Yeranran walked over and looked at Qiao Sang with a strange expression. "Ah Sang, why are you on this mountain? Did you encounter anyone? And your Firefang, why did it fight the Thunderbird?"

Qiao Sang turned and was surprised to see Yeranran. "Sister Ranran, you're here too."

There were too many questions, and Qiao Sang didn't know which to answer first. But answering questions wasn't the most important thing right now.

"I'll tell you later." Qiao Sang then looked at the Stone Helmet on the ground.

The most important thing was to claim another head!

"Stone Helmet."

The Stone Helmet weakly called out.

It was filled with regret after seeing the Thunderbird fall.

How did things end up like this? Why did they fight each other in the first place?

Right.

It was all because of this human.

This hateful human!

The Stone Helmet glared at Qiao Sang and fainted from a heart attack.

Before losing consciousness, it vaguely felt someone calling its name in sorrow.

Master...

"Stone Helmet!" Qiao Sang cried out in pain.

Her points!

Yeranran was stunned for a moment. Stone Helmet? The Pokémon from Zhou Xian's profile? That black thing?!

"Ah Sang, what's going on here?" Yeranran asked, her face dazed.

The middle-aged woman looked over at the sound of her voice.

Although she was surprised that Yeranran knew this girl, it was clearly not the time to worry about such trivial matters.

The middle-aged woman stared intently at Qiao Sang, waiting for her answer.

Qiao Sang recovered from the pain of the Stone Helmet fainting before she could claim its head.

She began to recount the events, which there was no need to hide.

When the other police arrived, they saw the police force's flower and the old-timer with their mouths hanging open in shock.

The capture of the Silver-Tailed Sea Snake was unusually easy. When they found it, it was snoring just like its owner.

...

"Ah Sang, you need to come to the police station to give a statement," Yeranran said with a smile. "Your luck is really something. When you get home, tell Auntie San and the others. They'll be scared to death."

Qiao Sang nodded. This wasn't the first time she had to give a statement.

"I need to go home first. My bag is still there," Qiao Sang said.

"Why do you need your bag? It's just a statement. I'll take you home after," Yeranran patted Qiao Sang's shoulder and smiled.

Qiao Sang paused and said seriously, "I didn't remember the account number. My bank card is in my bag."

"Why do you need your bank card?" Yeranran asked curiously.

Qiao Sang didn't speak, just stared at her.

Silence spoke louder than words.

After a moment,

Yeranran: "!!!"

She realized and looked at Qiao Sang in shock, unable to speak for a long time.

Holy crap, her junior high school graduate cousin was about to become a millionaire?!

As they were about to leave Huangming Mountain, Qiao Sang suddenly asked the dazed Yeranran, "Do you have any food?"

Yeranran was dazed. "What food? What to eat? What kind of food?"

Qiao Sang: "……"

"Do you have any food on you?" Qiao Sang asked again.

"I'm on a diet, so I don't carry food," Yeranran replied, then paused. "Mainly because I'm poor."

Qiao Sang: "……"

She wanted to give the Magnemite some food as a farewell, but all the food she had was in the Seeker's Ring.

Given the Seeker's current state, it probably couldn't hear her. She would have to take the Seeker to the Beastmaster Center for a check-up after going down the mountain.

Qiao Sang looked around but didn't see the Magnemite mother and child.

"Firefang!" Firefang barked at a spot.

Qiao Sang followed the direction and saw two yellow heads, one large and one small, peeking out from the grass, looking at her.

When Qiao Sang looked over, the two Magnemites smiled friendly and a small yellow paw pushed a green fruit out of the grass.

It was a Fullness Berry.

Qiao Sang was stunned, then walked over and picked up the Fullness Berry.

She parted the grass, but the two Magnemites were gone.

Qiao Sang stood there, holding the Fullness Berry.

At this moment, Yeranran walked over and said in surprise, "Did you just pick this up from the ground? I remember the Fullness Berry tree is quite far from here."

Qiao Sang snapped out of it and smiled. "No, a friend gave it to me."
