"Leave the bodies here. The passing wild Pokémon will devour them," Qingwu said to Leiming.

Leiming knew that Qingwu was teaching him to be ruthless; in Team Rocket, only the ruthless could survive.

"Let's go," Qingwu tidied up the cave and quickly left before the sun set. If they didn't leave soon, the wild Pokémon attracted by the scent of blood would go berserk and hurt people.

Team Rocket Frost Wolf Instructor's Office

Qiong was chattering incessantly, while Cang leisurely sipped a whiskey. "Leader Sakaki has sent the Pokémon. Which one will you choose?" Qiong chattered like a nagging woman. If anyone knew that Team Rocket's 'Sleep God' was like this, they would have rebelled long ago.

The Frost Wolf Instructor covered his face, unable to bear Qiong's behavior. "Why do you have to be like this? Anyway, Team Rocket's medical experts have already arrived. What's wrong with a check-up? Why are you so stubborn?" The Frost Wolf Instructor spoke earnestly.

"The Pokémon I choose will be left to my successor. Frost Wolf knows," Cang said, feigning guilt as he took a sip of whiskey. The toxins in his body had been suppressed by Qingwu.

If he had a medical examination now, wouldn't it reveal to everyone that he was fine? What about the benefits he had received before? Wouldn't they be revoked? Rarely did he see his younger brother showing concern for him, Cang felt incredibly pleased.

Qingwu and Leiming returned to the trial base and encountered the Fat Man. Qingwu saw the Fat Man's murderous gaze fixed on Leiming. The Fat Man's mind was extremely twisted now. When he learned that his Spinarak hadn't died and had fallen into Leiming's hands, he wished he could eat Leiming's flesh and drink his blood.

The Fat Man incited his team to hunt down Leiming, but Leiming escaped. Leiming knew that a battle between him and the Fat Man was inevitable, a battle that would even involve life and death.

Qingwu went straight to the exchange post. Surprisingly, the one on duty today was Colonel Big Brother.

"Brother Qingwu, long time no see. If you don't visit me soon, I'll be transferred back to Team Rocket Headquarters," Colonel said with a triumphant expression.

"Then congratulations, Colonel Big Brother," Qingwu cupped his fist at the Colonel, congratulating him. Compared to the remote trial island, returning to Team Rocket Headquarters was a lucrative position.

"Hahahaha, Brother Qingwu, have you finished that thing?" Colonel subtly hinted.

"Mhm, it's done. But when I came last time, you weren't on duty, so I didn't take it out," Qingwu pulled out various Pokéblocks from his bracelet. Qingwu was also very grateful to the Colonel for providing him with the necessary supplies for wilderness survival.

"If you can't find me in the future, you can send a signal to my communicator. Oh, right, you don't have communicators during the trial. I forgot," Colonel slapped his head. After all, the trial was a relatively distant memory for him, so it was normal for the Colonel to forget.

"I'll sell these Pokéblocks as soon as possible. Brother Qingwu can also see what you want to exchange for. I'll deduct it directly from these Pokéblocks," Colonel said to Qingwu, acting very generously.

"I need these materials. Some materials might even require your authorization to purchase. As for points, there's no rush; I can use this to exchange for points," Qingwu pulled out a Fire Stone that looked like a burning flame.

"This is a big one! I just happen to have a big shot here who wants to buy a good Fire Stone. Please wait," Colonel hurriedly left.

Soon, a plump man with a very amiable smile walked in. Qingwu looked at the man's features and felt as if he had seen him somewhere before. This plump man was Qiong, who was bored and idle.

Qingwu glanced, then lowered his head, took out the high-quality Fire Stone, placed it on the table, and gestured to Qiong to proceed. This was to ensure that no accidents occurred during the transaction. Qingwu was signaling that he had not tampered with anything.

As Qiong was meticulously examining the Fire Stone, Qingwu's mind raced, trying to figure out why this plump man felt so familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. "Right, the man in the black robe," Qingwu remembered. This plump man was very similar to the black-robed man he had saved.

The only difference was that one was fat and the other was thin. Since they looked alike and he was a high-ranking member of Team Rocket, could the black-robed man's true identity be the leader of Team Rocket's covert operations division?

How could the leader of the covert operations division simultaneously appear on the trial island? Qingwu quickly banished this thought from his mind. He had to admit, Qingwu's thought had stumbled upon the truth.

"The quality of this Fire Stone is quite good. I haven't seen such a good Fire Stone in a long time. My Vulpix is about to evolve, so I'll directly transfer 250,000 points to you," Qiong said, his eyes lighting up after seeing the Fire Stone.

It was like "searching high and low for something, only to find it unexpectedly." He, of course, knew that the better the quality of the Fire Stone, the more likely it was to enhance a Pokémon's potential. He had been looking for high-quality Fire Stones for some time.

He had searched within Team Rocket's bounties and the underground black market. He never expected such a harvest by coming to Team Rocket's trial base on a whim.

"Of course, no problem. You can make the decision, sir. I have a request," Qingwu said, readily accepting, as this price was 50,000 points higher than Qingwu's estimation.

"What is it? What's the request?" Qiong immediately raised his head, displeased, upon hearing the word "request." Qiong's gloomy gaze swept over Qingwu. If an ordinary person saw Qiong's expression, they would immediately lower their head and not dare to look him in the eye.

"I want to borrow your authorization, sir, to exchange for some resources," Qingwu said, looking straight at Qiong. After a long moment, Qiong laughed.

"What gall, interesting. It's been a long time since anyone dared to speak to me like that. Alright, I agree." Qiong turned his head to the Colonel, taking out a black card from his embrace.

"You directly transfer 250,000 points from this card of mine to this young man, and then grant him access when he exchanges. My exclusive authorization code is six '2's. Young man, just exchange whatever you fancy."

Qiong understood the authorization operation. He himself was a victim of it in the past, so upon hearing Qingwu's request, he agreed without a second thought.

"Colonel Big Brother, thank you for helping me connect. I'll transfer these 50,000 points to your name as your reward," Qingwu said very tactfully.

"No, no," The Colonel said. Although he coveted the large sum of points Qingwu suddenly acquired, if the superior officer found out about this, the Colonel would be in deep trouble.

What's more, that superior officer was the leader of the covert operations division, and nothing he did could be hidden from that adult's eyes.

"These are the items I need to exchange for. Please help me, Colonel Big Brother," Qingwu took out a piece of paper and quickly wrote down a list of materials.

Among them were materials for hatching a Torchic, materials for concocting a Zubat potential-enhancing potion, minerals to enhance Aron's body strength, and materials for nurturing a Squirtle.

"Some of these materials are not in this warehouse. I need to apply for central allocation from headquarters," the Colonel said to Qingwu after checking the required resources.

"If it's to be allocated from headquarters, it will probably take three days. As soon as the items arrive, I'll call you," the Colonel assured.
