"Mr. Xu Mu, leave the rest of the interrogation to us."
"Rest assured. On behalf of the Pokémon League, our investigation team promises you we'll get to the bottom of this."
Xu Mu had rounded up every last one of the black-clad attackers, and only then had the Pokémon League's people arrived.
Their speed was enough to leave anyone speechless.
But this was one of the Pokémon League's current shortcomings. For a high-level mission like this, assembling an investigation team of Venerables to respond naturally took time.
Although powerful people had been protecting Xu Mu from the shadows, he had not been in mortal danger, so they had seen no need to act.
They would stay hidden and wait for the next batch of moles.
"All right. Thanks for your hard work."
Xu Mu did not complain or say anything more. He handed the attackers over to the investigation team for the Pokémon League to deal with, then looked at Lin Yuqing.
Lin Yuqing had lost all thought of winning. Her Gym had been battered to pieces, and she stood there in a daze.
What did I do to deserve this?
How did I end up...
Ugh!
With a long sigh, Lin Yuqing looked at the wreckage before her and waved a hand. "Xu Mu, I don't think we need to have our Gym battle. You've already proven yourself to me. Here's your Badge."
After handing Xu Mu the Quick Badge, Lin Yuqing wished he would leave at once—and go as far away as possible.
That man is a walking disaster!
Xu Mu took the Badge, placed it in his Badge case, and scratched his head helplessly.
It wasn't as if I wanted this...
But what could I do? Some people were born exceptional. There was no hiding their brilliance.
