Beside the transmitter, Lin Yan frowned slightly as he listened to the staff member's explanation. He said nothing more, merely took the box and opened it. Inside was indeed a Poké Ball, just as he had expected.
The Poké Ball was red and white, with little outward difference from an ordinary Poké Ball. However, the top half bore the two characters "Ash," engraved in gold paint.
Holding it in his hand, Lin Yan found that its texture was far superior to that of an ordinary Poké Ball.
The instant he picked up the Poké Ball, Lin Yan understood. A smile curled across his lips.
Besides the Poké Ball, the box, roughly the size of a small suitcase, also contained several cans of beer specially brewed in the Huaxia Region.
This beer was sold only in the Huaxia Region. It had been brewed by a fruit merchant according to a family recipe passed down through generations, and its flavor was rich and mellow, vastly different from ordinary beer.
He gently pulled open the tab. The anticipated fruity fragrance did not waft out. Lin Yan merely took a small sip, and the mental exhaustion left behind by his life-and-death battles was instantly swept away, replaced by an unprecedented clarity. The smile in his eyes deepened.
Now that he knew where the suitcase had come from, Lin Yan did not dare be careless. He began searching through it, and sure enough, found a note pressed beneath the pull tab of one of the beer cans.
"This Poké Ball is special. It is something I hold dear. Bring it back to me alive. There is also a gift for Venusaur in the suitcase's hidden compartment. The powdered stuff is the latest seasoning. Make sure Charizard and the others do not eat it by mistake.
