Lillian's POV

"Well it looks likes we're here!"

I said walking into my uncle's home.

The place always looked neat and that's because my cousin Reggie is a total clean freak. Gladion walked in the house and looked at his surroundings.

"This place is so different from Alola I mean this city is bigger and is surrounded by peninsulas and you guys use a Gandala to get to place place."

Said Gladion.

"I'm used to it. I was born into Euro Isles culture."

I said

"That's because you were born in Kalos. Reagions in the Euro Isles are so much fancier than the region's located in the Marica Capital."

Said Gladion.

"You've got a good point but don't worry you'll get used to it."

I said.

Silvally came barging into the house and ran laps around the kitchen knocking vases and causing picture frames to fall over.

"SILVALLY CALM DOWN THIS ISN'T A FREE FOR ALL!!!!"

Shouted Gladion.

Silvally stopped and then rolled around in the carpet trying to find a comfortable spot on the floor.

"I'm really sorry Silvally's more wild since its evolved."

Said Gladion.

"Silvally's just super excited because he's in a new place."

I said.

Silvally than ran up the stairs and began sniffing around in the rooms.

"Silvally stop being nosy!!!"

Shouted Gladion.

"Hey Lillian! How's my favorite niece!"

Said my uncle Brandon approaching me.

"Hey Uncle Brandon!"

I said while giving him a hug.

"So how was Alola?"

He asked.

"It was beautiful but as always I was busy in with another case. I'm pretty sure Paul's told you about it."

I said.

"Oh yeah he has. Gold would not stop talking about and Silver tried to get him to stop walking about it."

Said Brandon while chucking.

"Yeah those two always fight don't they."

I said.

"Yep things never change in this household things are still very crazy around here."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"So where's Paul? He said he would meet us here."

I said.

"Well he got called on a case last minute."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"Did he tell you what the case was about."

I asked.

"He said it was murder case and had to do something with Neo Team Rocket."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"Oh you mean the new Team Rocket. Yeah I've heard about it on the news. I can't believe that they're kidnapping kids now and forcing them to be members of Neo Team Rocket. That's horrible."

I said.

"Yeah it is. That's why Paul's been so engrossed in this case."

Said Brandon.

"So I herd that he finally found Mina after five years."

I said.

"He sure did. Mina's actually living with us for a while. She's really excited to see you Lil."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"I'm excited to see her too it's been five years."

I said.

"Yeah it has. I wouldn't try to ask about her five years with Team Rocket. That upsets her. Oh I forgot she's Actuall not home right now. She went out shopping with May, Dawn, and Misty."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"The girls are here?"

I asked.

"Yeah and Drew is here too. He came with May. They've been staying with us. For a little while now."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"How many people stay here with you guys? I know Gary is here because he's the professor's assistant and he's staying here because it's close to work and I know Conway is Uncle Looker's new medical examiner?"

I asked.

"Yeah Gary is sharing a room with Drew, and Conway. Paul is sharing a room with Silver and Gold. Mina is sharing a room with Misty. you of course get your old room and May and Dawn are there right now. Paul had said that he invited Ash and Serena to stay here since Ash is going to Participate in the champion league. Paul said you wouldn't mind sharing a room with Serena, Dawn, and May would you? And Gladion you will have to share with Paul, Gold, and Silver. Is that okay?"

Asked Uncle Brandon.

"Yeah that's fine with me thanks for letting me stay here."

Said Gladion.

"No probables Gladion. Are the arrangements okay with you Lillian?"

Asked Uncle Brandon.

"Of course I wouldn't mind Serena's my best friend and May and I are very close and Dawn and I are very good friends. When did Ash say he's coming?"

I asked.

"Paul said that Ash was planning on coming in a few weeks. He would be rooming with Paul. Also Alain says he's planning on coming too. He claims that it's boring without all of his friends."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"It's nice to see everyone coming back. I miss them too much. How is it having Conway stay here."

I said.

"It's been interesting. That's for sure. He has his office set up in the basement and you know where the morgue is Conway's always there."

Said Uncle Brandon.

"Wait you're saying that there are actual dead bodies here?!"

Shouted Gladion.

"Oh no the dead are very much alive."

Gladion turned around to see Conway and he jumped.

"Dude you scared me."

Said Gladion.

"Sorry to startle you I'm Conway and you must be Gladion correct?"

Asked Conway.

"Y-yeah I am."

Said Gladion still slightly creeped out.

"And Lillian it's always good to see you again."

Said Conway.

"It been a long time."

I said.

Conway pulled me away and tapped me on the shoulder.

"This has something to do with Lusamine's case. Paul doesn't want Gladion involved. He think it's too dangerous for Gladion so that's why Brandon made up the whole Neo Team Rocket case thing Luke is taking on that Case while Paul is working on Lusamine's."

Said Conway in whisper.

"What do you want to show me?"

I asked.

"Come downstairs and I'll show you."

Said Conway.

I nodded and followed Conway downstairs to the basement.

Aracel's POV
"Uncle Guzma do we really need to keep that monstrosity?!"

I shouted pointing to the ugly plaid couch Uncle Guzma was placing back in his living room.

"What?! I have many memories on this couch."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"It smells like death in here. What is that smell?"

Asked Calem walking in with his sister Thania.

"It's Guzma's old stinky couch."

I said.

"It's a really ugly old couch. I'm surprised your uncle hasn't taken it to the dump yet."

Said Thania.

"Oh he REFUSES to throw that old thing away."

I said.

"Come one Aracel! I have may memories in this couch."

Said Guzma.

"Of what?! Late night poker games?! Come this couch is older than I am! It has to go! I'll even buy you a new couch!"

I said.

"But I get to choose the couch."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"I can't be from a Junk Yard!!!"

I said.

"Why not?! I like the rustic look! See that tire hung above our fire place that's from a junkyard."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"This house become a trash heap since I've moved out of here!!!"

I shouted.

"Okay fine we'll redecorate but I have agree on it and it has to be in my budget."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"I'll pay for all of it! I make a lot of money as champion. I'll pay for this house not look like a junk yard and please no spray painting on the walls."

I said.

"You can't ban art!"

Shouted my Uncle.

"A bunch of curse words and gang signs sprayed painted on our walls is not art! What if we have Bonnie and Max over or if Lillian's little cousins come here!"

I said.

"Okay fine no spray painting but I get to have some say in the color scheme."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"I'm not letting you all paint all of the walls in this house black!"

I shouted.

"Okay fine! Can my man cave be painted black?"

Asked Guzma.

"Fine! Your man cave can be painted black but I don't want t all depressing in this house. I'm going to have Lillian help me decorate the house and make it look presentable."

I said.

"Okay fine but I have to agree."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"Okay but we're going to go to nice stores where they sell nice furniture. I was thinking if replacing that stinky couch with a nice black leather couch."

I said.

"You had me at leather and black."

Said Guzma.

"So it's a deal?"

I asked.

"It's a deal."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"Good so let's start by making a junk pile and a pile of things you want to keep."

I said.

"Can we keep the tire above the fire place?"

"The tire can go in your man cave."

I said.

"Okay fine. I like that."

Said Uncle Guzma.

"Can I call Lillian? I have a feeling that we're going to need some help."

Said Calem.

"Yeah go ahead."

Lillian's POV
"See look."

"I don't know what I'm looking at Conway."

I said.

"Look at it closely."

Said Conway.

"I'm just staring at an old car tire with sand in it."

I said.

"It's the to Marcus's car and this isn't sand Lillian. It's salt."

Said Conway.

"Why salt?"

I asked.

"There's a salt mill by Marcus's mansion maybe two miles down and a famous government official was killed in a car accident by the salt Mill and that famous official did not get along at all with Marcus."

Said Conway.

"So it can't be just a car accident this was murder he has motive. Didn't this guy have some dirt on him and he was about to expose it to the press then literally thirty minutes before he was going to meet with the press he dies in a car accident caused by an unknown vehicle."

I said.

"It's not an unknown car anymore."

Said Conway.

"This isn't enough proof."

I said.

"Yep you're correct good observations Lillian but I'm not done yet. Here's where it gets interesting: Neo Team Rocket might have been involved in all of this."

Said Conway.

"How so?"

I asked.

"Luke found something that connects the two cases. There was a robbery in town. A Pokemon daycare center was broken into and-"

"And let me guess Atila was behind this."

I said.

"Correct and guess what we found. Atila wasn't careful and he left a small trail of salt that came from his shoes. The exact same salt found in the popped tire of Marcus's car. Doesn't that seem like a partnership to you."

Said Conway.

"Yeah... We don't have solid proof but we have a lead."

I said.

"We sure do and it's officially enough to make a case that could hold in court."

Said Conway.

My phone began to ring in my back pocket of my jeans. I pulled it out and saw that Calem was calling me.

"We can finish this up in a minute I have to take this call."

I said.

"Okay but that's all I had to say. You can go now but since you have enough information you can start your investigation."

Said Colress.

"Good. I'll start tomorrow."

I said.

I answered my phone m and walked up the stairs.

"Hey Calem how's unpacking going?"

I asked.

"It's a death match between Guzma and Aracel. Aracel wants to redecorate Guzma agreed but he's having a hard time letting go of that moldy old couch."

Said Calem.

"You mean the ugly plaid couch that Guzma bought at a junk yard?"

I asked.

"That's the one."

Said Calem.

"I'll be right over. Where's his house?"

I asked.

"Five houses down from yours."

Said Calem.

"Okay I'll be there in five minutes. Love you."

I said.

"Love you too bye."

Said Calem hanging up.

"Where are you going wherever it is can I please go with you?!"

Begged Gladion.

"Why?"

I asked.

"I need a break from Silvally he is driving me crazy as much as I live in going crazy."

Said Gladion.

"Why?"

I asked.

"Silvally almost ate the TV remote and almost went to bathroom on Reggie's nice rug."

Said Gladion.

"Why did he almost eat the TV remote?"

I asked.

"Silvally eats anything and everything he can get his mouth on! He used to have that helmet and now that helmet is gone there is no self control."

Said Gladion.

"Silvally is your responsibility."

I said.

"Okay fine he can come with us but I need to get him out of this house. I don't want to be kicked out already."

Said Gladion.

"Okay come with me."

I said.

"Yes! Come on Silvally lets go!"

Shouted Gladion.

Silvally hopped down off of the couch and followed Gladion outside.
