**Chapter 43: Meditation Method**
The Drug Dealer Leader still wanted to struggle, but Helioptile was quick-witted and threw another Thunder Wave at him.
"Ah~"
He screamed again, then lay limply on the ground, unable to move, only able to glare at Bai Feng with resentful eyes.
"Helioptile, go inform Bai Ye to bring the Teacher and others over. I'll inform Officer Jenny to come and apprehend them!" Bai Feng said to Helioptile.
"Aip~"
Helioptile nodded and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.
The battle on Officer Jenny's side was also nearing its end, so after receiving Bai Feng's call, she immediately brought people over.
"We owe you a lot this time, otherwise these guys would have gotten away!" Looking at the Drug Traffickers in front of her, Officer Jenny said with emotion.
"Oh right, Officer Jenny, where is that Masked Man?" Bai Feng suddenly remembered the Masked Man and asked.
Mentioning that person immediately made Officer Jenny furious. She said angrily, "That damn guy got away! If he hadn't tipped them off, we wouldn't have had to deploy urgently, and the Drug Trafficking Organization's leader almost escaped!"
Hearing this, Bai Feng knew that Officer Jenny and the Masked Man had a deep-seated grudge, so he wisely kept quiet and didn't ask further.
"Oh right, you and your Teacher need to come with us to the Police Station to give a Statement. It might take up a bit of your time," Officer Jenny added.
Bai Feng replied righteously, "Cooperating with Officer Jenny on a case is our duty. Of course, we will cooperate fully."
Officer Jenny patted Bai Feng's shoulder and said, "Well done, you're a promising young man."
Just like that, Bai Feng, Teacher Omura, and his friends were taken back to the Lumiose City Police Station. The process of giving a Statement wasn't complicated. The police only asked Bai Feng why he was in the Mountain Valley and what he encountered at the Base, and Bai Feng answered everything truthfully.
The teachers were asked about their experiences during the time they were captured.
After they finished giving their Statements, the police drove Bai Feng and the others directly back to the Hotel. Teacher Omura's friends were also safely sent back to their Home.
As for Purrloin, it was temporarily placed with Officer Jenny. According to Officer Jenny, they still needed Purrloin's assistance with some matters.
Purrloin showed great reluctance when parting with Bai Feng. It wasn't because its Bond with Bai Feng was particularly deep, but simply because it felt uncomfortable being left with strangers, so it unconsciously developed a slight attachment to Bai Feng.
At the Police Station, Teacher Omura had already learned about how Bai Feng ended up at the Drug Dealer Base, so after returning to the Hotel, he gave Bai Feng a few words of advice, telling him not to take risks casually in the future, and then went back to his Room to rest.
During the time he was captured, Teacher Omura was put through a lot, both mentally and physically. So as soon as he returned to his Room, he collapsed onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Bai Feng was also quite tired after running around all night, so he also napped in the Room for a while.
When he came out of the Room after resting, he was stopped by a Hotel staff member walking towards him.
"Excuse me, are you young man Bai Feng from Room 1327? There's a Package for you here."
"Mine?" Bai Feng asked, pointing to himself.
"Are you young man Bai Feng from Room 1327?" the staff member asked again.
"That's me." Bai Feng nodded.
"Then there's no mistake. It's indeed a Package addressed to you by name." The staff member smiled and handed the Package to Bai Feng.
Bai Feng took the Package and looked at it. The sender's section clearly showed Lysandre's name. Filled with confusion, he opened the Package box and saw two Books lying quietly inside.
One of the Books was already yellowed, clearly an antique at first glance, while the other was brand new.
Bai Feng picked up the two Books and flipped through them, quickly figuring out what was written inside.
Lysandre had actually sent him a precious Meditation Method.
The yellowed one was the original volume, a unique copy passed down from a long time ago. However, it was recorded using Ancient Text from the Pokémon World, and Bai Feng could only understand bits and pieces, unable to fully grasp its meaning.
The brand new one was the Translated Version provided by Lysandre. He guessed that Bai Feng might not be able to understand the Ancient Text, so he thoughtfully found someone to translate it into modern language.
This was too precious!
Bai Feng immediately dialed Lysandre's number.
The call was quickly connected, and Lysandre's deep voice came from the other end.
"How is it? Did you receive the things?"
"I received them, but it's too precious. I can't accept it," Bai Feng replied.
Lysandre said carelessly, "It's just a Meditation Method. My ancestors collected this by chance, but our family doesn't have the Psychic Gene, and no Psychic has ever been born in our family. So, in my hands, it's just an ordinary collectible.
Now that my friend has become a Psychic, what's wrong with giving it as a gift to a friend?"
"But..." Bai Feng still wanted to say something, but Lysandre quickly interrupted him. "Alright, no buts. Didn't I accept it when you gave me the Water Stone? In my opinion, that Meditation Method isn't even as valuable as that Water Stone!
The reason the Meditation Method is precious is because it's monopolized by a few people. But for someone who doesn't need it, it's actually worthless. I happen to be one of those people.
But your Water Stone is different. It's so beautiful, anyone who sees it will be moved."
"Alright, I can't argue with you. Then I'll shamelessly accept this Meditation Method," Bai Feng said helplessly.
"That's more like it! Otherwise, I'd think you didn't consider me a friend!" Lysandre laughed heartily. "If you really feel bad about it, when you can grow Grade A Berries in the future, don't forget to send me some."
Although he said that, Bai Feng didn't think Lysandre would be short on Grade A Berries, so he could only silently remember this kindness of being given the Book.
After chatting with Lysandre for a while longer, Bai Feng hung up the phone and returned to his Room, then began to carefully study this Meditation Method.
This Meditation Method wasn't difficult to understand after being translated into modern language, and the content wasn't extensive. After understanding its meaning, Bai Feng sat cross-legged on the bed, placed his hands in front of his chest, closed his eyes, and began cultivating.
As time passed, a faint blue light began to appear on Bai Feng's body surface. That was his Materialized Psychic Energy.
Supported by the Psychic Energy, Bai Feng actually slowly floated into the air.
"Aip~ Aip~"
Helioptile watched such a magical scene, pointing at Bai Feng and yelping excitedly.
Seeing this, Brionne slapped it.
"Quiet, don't disturb Bai Feng's meditation, or I'll slap you dead!"
Hearing this, Helioptile immediately covered its mouth, widened its eyes, and quieted down.
As time passed, Bai Feng gradually detached from the state of meditation. After letting out a long breath, he opened his eyes and felt refreshed for a moment.
"Aip~ Aip~"
Helioptile, who had been holding back and not daring to speak, saw Bai Feng open his eyes and immediately scrambled onto Bai Feng's lap, asking impatiently:
"What does meditation feel like?"
Bai Feng also didn't know how to describe that incredibly wondrous feeling, so he could only reply, "It's wonderful!"
Helioptile tilted its head, indicating it didn't understand, so Bai Feng had to say, "Let me demonstrate my psychic abilities for you!"
As soon as he said this, not only did Helioptile get excited, but Brionne and Bai Ye also clapped their paws in agreement.
Bai Feng recalled the method Caitlin taught him for controlling Psychic Energy, and manipulated the Psychic Energy to attach to the teacup on the table. As a layer of blue light flashed in his eyes, the cup was controlled to slowly float up.
"Is that all?"
The three Pokémon looked at each other, thinking Bai Feng wasn't impressive at all. Bai Ye could easily achieve this level of Telekinesis.
"Is there more? Is there more?" Brionne pressed.
"No, this is all I can do," Bai Feng said, shaking his head.
The three Pokémon immediately looked expressionlessly at the pathetic teacup Bai Feng was controlling.
"What are those expressions for?" Bai Feng said, his face red from trying to control the teacup. "I just started learning. This is already very impressive."
"Really? I don't believe it?"
The three Pokémon had identical expressions.
"Alright then, how about we try the second thing!" Saying this, Bai Feng put the teacup back on the table. "Mom, come over and cooperate with me for a bit."
"Gardevoir~" "Me?"
Bai Ye walked up to Bai Feng doubtfully and, at Bai Feng's signal, offered him her hand.
The moment the mother and son's hands clasped together, their Psychic Energy suddenly connected, and Bai Ye suddenly felt much stronger.
"I can take on ten!"
Bai Ye felt the power surging within her body, and a surge of heroic spirit arose spontaneously.
Supported by the powerful psychic energy, the mother and son actually flew freely in the air. This was different from Bai Feng's earlier floating; this was truly flying.
Before, Bai Ye could also use Psychic Energy to make Bai Feng fly, but she couldn't control herself. Now, after Fusion with Bai Feng's Psychic Energy, she could actually fly freely while carrying herself.
How amazing!
Psychic Fusion with Pokémon is also a method Psychics use to utilize their own Psychic Energy. He unintentionally triggered this Fusion during his battle with the Masked Man. Only after cultivating the Meditation Method did he understand that this method of using Psychic Energy is very common among Psychics.
This is the most direct and effective method for Psychics to boost their Pokémon.
However, when using this method, the Psychic must be in sync with the Psychic Pokémon, otherwise both sides can easily be harmed.
Over the next two days, aside from occasionally taking his Pokémon out for a stroll, Bai Feng spent most of his time cultivating the Meditation Method in the Hotel.
Teacher Omura, on the other hand, often went out to inquire about information related to the Berry Exhibition Convention. The previous kidnapping incident didn't seem to have much impact on him; he was still smiling every day.
The day before the Berry Exhibition Convention, Bai Feng received the Berries that Dongyu sent to Lumiose City. These Berries were the ones Bai Feng planned to use for the Exhibition.
To keep the Berries fresh, all participants of the Exhibition chose to send the Berries they intended to exhibit to Lumiose City either the day before or on the day of the convention.
The preservation technology in the Pokémon World is very advanced, and transportation services are also very developed, so it's entirely possible to send them just in time for use.
Actually, given the distance between Lumiose City and Biyi City, Bai Feng's Berries could have been delivered on the same day, but Bai Feng was worried about accidents, so he had Dongyu send them a day earlier.
When Bai Feng returned from the Warehouse where the Berries were stored, he saw Officer Jenny waiting for him in the Hotel Lobby. Purrloin was also with Officer Jenny.
The moment it saw Bai Feng, Purrloin quickly jumped out of Officer Jenny's arms and climbed onto Bai Feng's shoulder in the blink of an eye.
"Meow meow meow~" "What took you so long to come back!"
"It seems this little guy is quite attached to you!" Officer Jenny said, walking over with a smile.
"Really?" Bai Feng glanced at Purrloin. Seeing this, the little guy quickly turned its head away, completely avoiding eye contact with Bai Feng.
Bai Feng: Attached? Attached my foot!
"Officer Jenny, is the case finished?" Bai Feng asked.
"Pretty much," Officer Jenny nodded. "However, according to our investigation, there might be a bigger fish hidden behind this Drug Trafficking Organization."
"A bigger fish?" Bai Feng looked surprised.
Officer Jenny immediately added, "But this has nothing to do with you anymore, you don't need to worry. This time I came to find you, besides bringing Purrloin back, I also wanted to tell you that you performed meritorious service this time. I will recommend you for commendation to my superiors, and I'll inform you when the results are out!"
"There's such a good thing?" "Will it be money or something else?"
"Okay, I understand."
After delivering the message to Bai Feng, Officer Jenny left.
The next day, the Berry Exhibition Convention finally began. Bai Feng and Teacher Omura went to the Venue early with the Berries they were exhibiting, and found their Exhibition Spot according to the Number Tag provided by the organizers.
