Alice handed the envelope about the forbidden romance to the man: "Here, take a look yourself!"
The man reached out to take it, and after seeing the information on it, his eyes behind the glasses lit up instantly:
"Wow, this is definitely a major news story worth digging into!"
"...In that case, I'll leave this matter for you to investigate." Alice straightforwardly assigned the task to the man, then continued to open the third letter.
[In a rural town, sightings of the rare Pokémon Dragonite have emerged! Someone is actually using Dragonite as a delivery Pokémon!]
"Huh?" Seeing the content of the letter, Alice immediately became interested and continued to read further.
[Not long ago, I traveled to Porto Marinada Town. One morning, while having breakfast with my Pokémon, I suddenly saw several Dragonites with satchels flying into the town.]
[The locals said those Dragonites came from a rural farm, and it was a farmer directing them to deliver goods to the townsfolk!]
"A farmer?" Upon seeing this, Alice's first reaction was disbelief.
A farmer in the countryside capturing such a powerful and rare Pokémon like Dragonite—it sounds rather implausible.
While it's true that Dragonites have a gentle disposition, it doesn't mean they would choose a weak human as a companion.
Moreover, each Dragonite has a different personality, and some seek strength and power.
The male colleague assigned to investigate the forbidden romance between humans and Pokémon saw Alice's expression and curiously asked, "What's up? Found another big story?"
Alice answered with a question: "Mark, do you think a farmer running a farm could capture a Pokémon like Dragonite?"
Upon hearing this, Mark's first response was to shake his head: "How could that be possible? A farmer isn't a Trainer, and the two seem completely mismatched. If it were Geeta, I might believe it!"
"Here." Alice handed over the news letter in her hand: "See for yourself."
Mark took it, skimmed through it, then firmly shook his head: "Absolutely impossible! It's fake; there's no way such a thing could happen in this world!"
He initially thought it was just one Dragonite, but it turned out there were several.
This is absolutely impossible!
"Too exaggerated." Mark shook his head: "This person is clearly trying to lure us there for an info fee!"
Alice thought the same.
Not paying much attention, she set the letter aside and continued to look through other newsworthy stories.
But surprisingly, the next letter was still about the farmer and the delivery Dragonite.
[Hello, I am a traveling Trainer! Recently, I passed by a strange farm... Many Pokémon live there, but strangely, there's not a single human, just a group of Pokémon.]
[There's also a tavern that only serves Pokémon, run by two Indeedee. Even stranger, several Dragonites live there, and they deliver milk to the town every morning.]
[Strange, right? Oh, by the way, that farm is near Porto Marinada Town. If you're going to investigate, don't forget to send me the info fee!]
Alice: "?"
The same Porto Marinada Town, the same farm and delivery Dragonites—this was getting peculiar.
Alice appeared pensive. If that's the case, the place is definitely worth a visit.
Thinking of this, Alice, being action-oriented, immediately began to pack her things.
Seeing this, Mark was somewhat puzzled: "Where are you going?"
Alice already had her camera and luggage ready, answering without turning her head: "Business trip!"
