The two exchanged a few words, and as the dark-skinned woman clenched her teeth in anger, the mysterious man mounted the giant bird and quickly disappeared into the night sky. Before he left, the mysterious man even glanced at Kaede Sato.
The mysterious man's gaze made Kaede Sato very unhappy. Yes, Kaede Sato was not mistaken. It was a blatant threat.
After the mysterious man left, the dark-skinned woman brought the Roaring Blaze Tiger down from the eaves of the shop, and then rushed into the fruit shop with several burly dark-skinned men who brought along Inspector Meerkat.
Soon after, Miss Jun Sha who was riding a Wind Hound also rushed to the scene of the attack with several Alliance police officers who brought along Katie.
Kaede Sato was the only one who had fought with the assassin trainer. Naturally, he was questioned by Miss Jun Sha who had rushed to the scene. However, he wasn't afraid of being slandered. He calmly told Miss Jun Sha what had happened.
"That's about it. In short, I'm just an innocent bystander. Alright, I have other things to do, so I won't keep you company, Miss Jun Sha."
Kaede Sato said helplessly to Miss Jun Sha in front of him. He did not know what was wrong with her, but she did not seem to trust him as an outsider. Apart from not saying anything, the word 'suspicion' was written all over her face.
With that, Kaede Sato took out the pokeball and recalled the Crossword Bat and Pikachu. Then, ignoring Miss Jun Sha's reaction, he began to walk past the onlookers who were looking at him in awe and headed outside.
When Miss Jun Sha saw Kaede Sato acting like he was about to leave, she felt helpless and could only nod and signal her subordinates to let him pass.
Although her professional instincts told her that Kaede Sato was not as simple as he seemed, Kaede Sato did not do anything wrong in this attack. In fact, he was playing the role of the victim.
Most importantly, Kaede Sato was a powerful Alliance trainer. She had no right to detain an Alliance trainer who acted bravely for a just cause.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
Before Kaede Sato could step into the beginner section, a pleasant voice came from behind him. The owner of the voice was Lucamina herself. She and her daughter were walking out of the fruit store surrounded by a group of bodyguards from Aurora.
However, when Kaede Sato heard Lusamina's voice, he didn't stop. Instead, he walked even faster. He blended into the crowd and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the crowd.
"Sigh ~ You're truly a young, promising, and vigilant trainer. Then I'll have to repay you the next time we meet."
Seeing that Kaede Sato didn't want to stay any longer, Lucamina couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
In fact, the chairman of the Ether Fund was originally Lushamina's husband's father. After her grandfather passed away, the position of chairman of the Ether Fund was automatically passed to her husband.
However, Lushamina's husband was obsessed with researching the Ultimate Cave and didn't put any thought into managing the Ether Fund. Therefore, his power was basically taken away by his subordinates.
At first, this wasn't a big deal. After all, even if Lushamina's husband's power was taken away, he still held half of the Ether Fund's shares. Moreover, he chose to let go of his power, and his subordinates treated him very well.
But all of this was quickly shattered when Lushamina's husband disappeared into the Ultimate Cave a year ago.
Not long after, Lucamina replaced her husband as the chairman of the Ether Fund. Lucamina loved her husband deeply. In order to find her husband who had gone missing after entering the Ultimate Cave, she chose to borrow the power of the Ether Fund.
Therefore, after Lushamina became the chairman of the Ether Fund, she began to withdraw her power. She wanted to use this to influence the future decisions of the Ether Fund and use the power of the Ether Fund to find her husband who had gone missing.
However, Lushamina's actions immediately angered those who held great power in the Ether Fund. More accurately, Lushamina had seriously damaged their interests.
Thus, an internal conflict began to break out in the Ether Fund, and now, Lushamina was at the center of the vortex.
Ever since Lushamina began to use her status as the largest shareholder to withdraw the power of the Ether Fund, various levels of assassination followed. Not only her, but even her children were often assassinated.
At first, Lushamina, who had always been protected by others, wasn't used to it. However, she was from a prestigious family after all. Behind her stood one of the few major families in Alola, and she was the daughter of the current head of the family.
Soon, Lushamina used the power of her family to pull through. Although she had to pay a little of the Ether Fund's shares, she began to take control of the Ether Fund bit by bit.
Now, Lushamina was the chairman of the Ether Fund with real power. However, those who had lost the power struggle didn't give up. They still had the ambition to make a comeback.
Lushamina's purpose in coming to Red Lotus Town was very simple. She wanted to seek cooperation. She heard that a new type of spatial transmission technology had been developed here, so she sent people over to obtain the right to use this technology through cooperation.
However, based on the previous situation, the cooperation didn't go well. Moreover, the other party used the importance of this technology as an excuse to ask to see her, the chairman of the Ether Fund, to discuss the cooperation.
Although the cooperation didn't go well, after Lushamina's trusted researcher saw the new spatial design with his own eyes, he told Lushamina that this technology was very likely to lead to a breakthrough in the research of the Ultimate Cave.
Thus, Lushamina, who was eager to find her husband, chose to come over personally.
The news that Lushamina had left Alora was quickly learned by those who wanted to overthrow her. Including today, she had already encountered five assassination attempts in Red Lotus Town.
Although Lushamina had spent a lot of money to hire a powerful quasi-King-class trainer and a number of elite trainers to protect her, her opponent this time had put in a lot of money. She didn't know where he had found several quasi-King-class trainers to assassinate her.
Fortunately, Lushamina's strength was not bad. She also had the strength of a top elite trainer. In addition, the local forces saw that she was a big customer and also helped her, so she managed to avoid several assassination attempts.
Lushamina had the intention to thank and recruit Kaede Sato. Kaede Sato was so young, but he was able to defeat a quasi-King-level Elf head-on. This made her eyes light up.
It was her first time in the Guandong area, so she was unfamiliar with the people and the place. Moreover, as a woman, she had no foundation here. The people here would not give her any face. Therefore, even if she had money, she did not dare to show it so as to avoid getting into more trouble.
Lushamina came from a big family, so she naturally had a good eye. Although Kaede Sato gave off a very extraordinary feeling, she could tell at a glance that Kaede Sato wasn't a trainer from a big family. He was just a civilian trainer.
Therefore, Lushamina wanted to pay Kaede Sato.
Unfortunately, Kaede Sato was far more understanding of the ways of the world than the other young trainers she had met before. He didn't want to have too much contact with her and cause too much trouble.
Lushamina had to admit that this made her feel a little regretful.
