Elf: Korni’s straight boyfriend

Chapter 503: Trainer Attack Case (1)

As night fell, the city lights gradually lit up, shining like stars, covering this busy city with a mysterious and charming veil. Seti and Korni shuttled through the streets and alleys, their figures lengthened under the dim street lights, and every step seemed unusually firm.

The buildings on both sides of the street were tall and solemn, and the lights on the walls flickered, giving people a trance-like feeling. The cold wind whistled past, bringing a hint of chill, but the two did not stop. They walked silently, and the tacit understanding between them allowed them to understand each other's thoughts without words.

There was a depressing atmosphere in the air, as if even the wind was telling of uneasiness. There were few pedestrians on the street, and occasionally there were a few figures hurriedly passing by, all with their heads down and nervous expressions. The whole city was shrouded in a weird atmosphere, making people feel inexplicably fearful.

Sett and Korne came to a street corner and stopped. Sett looked into the distance, thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's start with the victims of the recent attack. According to the police report, most of the victims are trainers, and their Pokémon seem to have been affected by some unknown force and become extremely violent."

Korni nodded in agreement. A trace of worry flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Why did these Pokémon suddenly become so irritable? There must be some secret behind this."

Seti took a deep breath and said, "Whatever the reason, we must find out the truth as soon as possible. These attacks have caused panic among the citizens. If they are not resolved in time, the consequences will be disastrous."

Korni nodded, then took off her backpack and placed it on the ground. She unzipped it, took out a map, and spread it out on the ground. The map was densely marked with the locations of all known attacks. She pointed at the map and said to Seti: "Look, these locations are not evenly distributed, but they seem to be centered around the city center. Is it possible that they have some important targets there?"

Seti took the map and looked at it carefully. His eyes scanned the map and his brows gradually frowned. After a while, he raised his head and said solemnly: "It is indeed possible, but these clues alone are far from enough. We need more information, such as their action patterns, weapons used, and even their appearance characteristics. Only by mastering enough clues can we better understand the enemy and formulate an effective response strategy." After speaking, he returned the map to Korni, with a trace of worry and determination in his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and saw determination in each other's eyes. Sett said, "We need to start the investigation as soon as possible. I think we can divide the work like this. I will go to the police station to see if I can get more official information and learn about the progress of the police investigation; you go to visit the victim's family and talk to them to see if there are any new clues." Korni nodded in agreement. She knew that Sett had a certain reputation in the Pokémon training community and should be able to get some useful information from the police. So, they decided to act separately.

Before parting, the two hugged each other tightly, their eyes full of support and encouragement for each other. Korni said: "Come on, Seti! I hope we can find the truth soon." Seti nodded and responded: "Don't worry, Korni. Wait for my good news." After that, they parted ways and started their respective tasks.

Sett arrived at the police station. With his reputation in the Pokémon training community, he soon met the officer in charge of the case. The officer welcomed Sett's arrival and provided a detailed case report. The report detailed the time, location, victim conditions, and on-site investigation results of each attack. Sett read the report carefully, not missing any details. As he read deeper, his brows furrowed more and more, and a vague outline gradually formed in his mind.

At the same time, Korni was standing at the door of a victim's home. She knocked gently. When the door opened, a young trainer appeared in front of her, his eyes full of fear and helplessness. Korni said softly, "I'm here to understand the situation. Is it convenient?" The trainer nodded and invited Korni to enter the house.

Korni sat on the sofa and listened patiently to the young trainer's story. He described the scene in detail, including the attacker's appearance, the attack method, and his own response. However, despite this, Korni still felt a little confused because this information did not seem to give her more clues.

At this moment, Korni suddenly remembered something. She asked, "Before the attack, did you receive any strange letters or messages?" The trainer hesitated, then nodded and said, "Yes, I once received an anonymous letter with only one sentence: 'Hand over your Pokémon, otherwise you will bear the consequences.' But I didn't care about it. I thought it was just a prank."

This discovery shocked Korni, and she immediately realized that this was not a simple attack, but a premeditated, organized criminal activity. She realized that these attackers might be targeting the trainers' Pokémon, rather than simply committing violence.

Korni quickly informed Seti of this important information, and the two agreed to meet at the police station to discuss countermeasures. They decided to investigate other victims to see if anyone else had received similar anonymous letters. At the same time, they also planned to increase patrols in the city to prevent more attacks.

After returning to the police station, Korni and Seti began to sort out the clues at hand. They found that although each victim suffered varying degrees of injury, none of them lost anything except their Pokémon. This made Korni more convinced that the purpose of these attackers was to seize the Pokémon of the trainers.

When Sett and Korne met again, they were both solemn. Sett first shared the information provided by the police, pointing out that the weapon used by the attacker seemed to have some special ability that could interfere with the will of Pokémon and make it violent. Korne told about the anonymous letter received by the victim, and they both agreed that there was a huge conspiracy behind it.

"We must find the sender. He may be the key to the whole incident." Seti pondered, "At the same time, we must also increase our vigilance to prevent more trainers from being harmed."

Korni nodded in agreement. She suggested, “We can use social media and online platforms to issue warning messages and remind all trainers to be careful. At the same time, we can also organize a team of volunteers to patrol every corner of the city to detect and stop potential threats in a timely manner.”

Seti appreciated the proposal and added: "In addition, we also need to find a technical expert to help us track the source of those anonymous letters. Only by finding the source can we follow the clues and expose the whole conspiracy."

The two immediately took action, issuing warnings and contacting technical experts. Time passed quietly in their busyness, but their hearts were filled with an unprecedented sense of urgency. They knew that every minute and every second was crucial, because somewhere in this city, someone might be plotting the next evil plan.
