Time flew by, and soon it was the next day.
"Mr. Mammon, good morning~"
When Mr. Mammon woke up and came downstairs, Caitlin was sitting on the sofa in a pink long dress, her legs together and leaning, holding a morning paper.
Her golden long hair was draped over the sofa, exceptionally elegant.
"Morning, where are Hikari and Serena?" Mr. Mammon yawned.
"They're doing special training in the backyard, they're both very diligent." Caitlin smiled faintly.
"After all, they are young girls with dreams, and it's the age to strive hard." Mr. Mammon chuckled.
"What about you, Caitlin?"
"I'll decide after watching your interview, Mr. Mammon. How do I look in this outfit?"
Caitlin slowly stood up, her magnificent golden hair flowing like mercury, slightly levitating and not touching the ground, controlled by her Psychic power.
She walked to a nearby wall, picked up a black outfit, and approached Mr. Mammon.
"You bought it yesterday?" Mr. Mammon was a bit surprised.
"Uh-huh~ Today is the day you're being interviewed, and you'll be on TV. It's better to wear new clothes, right?" Caitlin said with a smile.
"They're all picked according to your size, and I think you'll like the style."
"Alright."
Mr. Mammon didn't hesitate; the relationship between him and Caitlin naturally didn't require such formalities.
Caitlin was indeed right; she knew Mr. Mammon's dressing style very well, so she bought a black set of clothes and pants.
The top was a short-sleeved casual shirt, and the bottom was a pair of black long pants.
Mr. Mammon unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, and an unrestrained and carefree Aura Heart immediately emerged. He also wore an exquisite silver necklace and a black Mega Bracelet on his hand.
"Mr. Mammon is indeed very handsome~"
Caitlin's beautiful eyes seemed to hold a pool of autumn water as she slowly walked in front of Mr. Mammon. The man she favored was indeed the most handsome in the world!
Then Caitlin stood on tiptoes, raising her long, fair arms to help Mr. Mammon straighten his collar.
The Psychic girl's clean face was now so close that Mr. Mammon could even clearly see Caitlin's long eyelashes trembling slightly, and below them were her beautiful and captivating pupils.
Her delicate, upturned nose, thin and rosy lips, and fair cheeks where even pores were barely visible.
Caitlin was truly beautiful~
Mr. Mammon quietly gazed at Caitlin, his nose and mouth filled with the girl's fragrance.
And Caitlin seemed to notice Mr. Mammon's gaze, her face appearing unchanged.
But in reality, the Psychic girl's earlobes had already turned red.
Suddenly, Mr. Mammon lowered his head.
The girl's pupils lost focus for a moment.
A warm touch appeared for just an instant before disappearing. Caitlin gently caressed her lips with her right hand.
Although it was fleeting, there was no doubt that Mr. Mammon had just kissed her!
This was her first kiss!
Thump thump
Her heart began to race at this moment, and Caitlin's mind even froze for a bit. For a moment, she didn't know what she should do next.
Should she pretend to be shy and cover her face? But would that be too deliberate?
Then, act as if nothing happened? But Mr. Mammon kissed me!! How can I act as if nothing happened?
Ah ah ah ah ah!!
Caitlin was absolutely unable to control her emotions at this moment. Mr. Mammon, really! Why so sudden!
She was completely unprepared. Would it have been better if she had responded slightly just now?
Caitlin was completely out of sorts.
No, no, I must be elegant! I must be elegant!
"Sorry, Caitlin, that was involuntary…"
"It's…it's fine."
Before Mr. Mammon could finish speaking, Caitlin's nervous yet undeniably joyful and hurried voice blurted out.
This was extremely rare. Ever since her encounter with Mr. Mammon in Alola, Caitlin had always been an elegant young lady.
No matter when or where, she always remembered 'elegance,' which was reflected in every aspect.
But at this moment, she had just lost her 'elegance,' because hearing Mr. Mammon's words, she subconsciously became a bit nervous.
"I believe Mr. Mammon didn't mean to, and besides…"
Caitlin gently bit her lip. She really wanted to confess to Mr. Mammon while the atmosphere was just right.
Didn't Mr. Mammon's 'involuntary' just now show that he had her in his heart?
But as soon as she thought of Mr. Mammon's girlfriend, Caitlin's 'heated' mind quickly cooled down.
No, not now!
She, Caitlin, the elegant young lady from a noble Sinnoh family, would absolutely not be a mistress who seized someone else's boyfriend when the other party was not present.
She wanted to openly and elegantly defeat Mr. Mammon's girlfriend and win the position of his official wife!
Caitlin did not want her emotional journey with Mr. Mammon to be criticized and attacked in the future. That was absolutely unacceptable.
Given the circumstances, so much time and so many things had passed, there was no need to rush at this moment.
Caitlin believed in herself; she was Mr. Mammon's most perfect wife!
"Let's eat first. Miss Alexa will only arrive in the afternoon."
Caitlin composed herself, resuming her faint, beautiful, and elegant smile, and looked at Mr. Mammon, saying softly.
Her beautiful big eyes curved slightly, charming and lovely.
Clearly, our elegant Psychic young lady was still in a very beautiful mood at this moment.
"Alright."
Mr. Mammon looked into Caitlin's beautiful eyes and also smiled.
...
12:30 PM.
The doorbell of the villa rang.
"Miss Alexa."
Platinum walked over to open the door, and what greeted her was Alexa, and behind Alexa was a cameraman carrying a camera, and the golden-haired Viola.
"Hikari, is Mr. Mammon here?"
"Yes, please come in."
After changing shoes and entering the villa to the living room, Alexa saw Mr. Mammon sitting on the sofa.
Honestly, Alexa's emotions at this moment were a mix of excitement and a bit of nervousness.
This young man was the leader of the strongest underground force in the Kanto region!
Equally nervous was Viola. Compared to Alexa, she was even more cautious at this moment.
The cameraman, on the other hand, who knew nothing, was curiously looking at Mr. Mammon and the others, who were all young and good-looking.
"Yo~ Miss Alexa is here, and the cameraman, is this Gym Leader Viola? It's a pleasure to meet you."
Mr. Mammon greeted the three very politely, with a very sunny smile.
"Come, please sit first. Would you like tea, juice, or coffee?"
Inviting the three to sit down, Mr. Mammon's attitude was very amiable.
"Coffee is fine for us, Mr. Mammon is too kind."
Alexa felt much more relaxed. At least for now, Mr. Mammon seemed relatively friendly.
Viola felt the same. Regardless, she was relieved at least for now; he didn't seem as dangerous as she had imagined.
"Alright, Tapu Fini."
Mr. Mammon called out to Tapu Fini, who was watching TV nearby.
There was no other way, Jirachi, Victini, and Mesprit were all too small.
Tapu Fini pouted very humanly, floated to the coffee machine, and poured three cups of coffee.
Then, using Psychic power, she controlled the three cups and placed them on the coffee table.
"Which Pokémon is this?"
Viola asked curiously.
As a Trainer, she had never seen Tapu Fini before, but she seemed to have a slight impression of its appearance.
"Tapu Fini, an Island Guardian Deity from Alola, but I caught it." Mr. Mammon replied.
It really is a Land Spirit Pokémon!
Viola was a bit excited. The four Tapu in the Pokedex were classified as 'Land Spirit Pokémon.'
"Can I take pictures of it?" Besides being the Santalune City Gym Leader, Viola was also a Pokémon photographer.
Yes, she was also a photographer, so she was also known as the 'Photography Girl Who Never Misses a Smile.'
"You'll have to ask Fini's opinion. If it's willing to be photographed, then yes."
Mr. Mammon did not directly agree, but these words made Viola's impression of him change quite a bit.
How could someone who respected a Pokémon's own wishes so much be the Team Rockets, who committed all sorts of evil deeds, as described in the reports?
Viola approached Tapu Fini, wanting to take some photos of her, but clearly, Tapu Fini's attention was entirely on the TV at the moment, and she coldly ignored Viola.
However, this girl didn't get discouraged and continued to try to befriend her. One could only say the scene was quite amusing.
"Mr. Mammon, I might ask a few rather pointed questions during the interview later. You don't mind, do you?"
Alexa ignored her younger sister and tentatively asked Mr. Mammon.
"Oh? No problem, I have nothing to hide. But after the interview, can I see the finished footage first?"
Mr. Mammon raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, looking at Alexa with a half-smile.
From Alexa's words, it seemed this woman had somehow learned about his identity.
But that was fine, Mr. Mammon's lips curved upwards.
"Of course." Alexa's eyes lit up slightly.
"Then, Mr. Mammon, shall we take a short break and then begin the interview? Is that alright?"
"Of course, OK."
Mr. Mammon had no objections.
Afterward, the cameraman began setting up the lighting and adjusting angles. As for makeup, there was no real need, Mr. Mammon didn't care about that.
At 1 PM sharp, the interview officially began. Caitlin and the others sat on another sofa and were not in the frame.
Alexa held a microphone, sitting opposite Mr. Mammon.
"Welcome to our exclusive interview segment. I'm your reporter, Alexa. Today's interview guest is Mr. Mammon from the Kanto region. Mr. Mammon, please greet everyone."
Alexa's smile was very infectious, and her words were clear.
"Hello everyone, I'm Mr. Mammon."
Mr. Mammon was very cooperative, smiling broadly.
"Perhaps many of you are still unfamiliar with Mr. Mammon. From what I understand, Mr. Mammon is the eldest son of Mr. Giovanni, the Viridian Gym Leader in Kanto, and a rookie Trainer who just debuted last year."
"And last year, you also participated in the Indigo Plateau Conference in Kanto, achieving an unprecedented and astonishing result. You defeated all opponents using only one Pokémon from beginning to end."
"In the finals of the Indigo Plateau Conference, you still swept through, using only one Annihilape, and won the championship of the Indigo Plateau Conference."
"May I ask you, Mr. Mammon, what was your feeling at that time?"
Alexa asked Mr. Mammon curiously.
This was also the information about Mr. Mammon that she had specifically sought out: Mr. Mammon's Trainer career began with an overwhelming victory at the Indigo Plateau Conference.
"My feelings? There wasn't anything particularly special, I guess." Mr. Mammon crossed his legs and pondered for a moment.
"I participated in the Indigo Plateau Conference hoping to battle strong opponents, but honestly, I was very disappointed because I only found out after participating…"
"The quality of the Trainers in that Indigo Plateau Conference was really low. Third-rate Trainers with fourth-rate Pokémon, there wasn't a single one who could fight, they were all too weak, so it was very boring."
Mr. Mammon spread his hands, saying with a very innocent expression.
Dude, can't you be more subtle?
Alexa almost couldn't keep a straight face. This was an interview, to be broadcast on TV!
Is it appropriate for you to start with the first question by immediately mocking everyone?
The Trainers who were in the same Indigo Plateau Conference as you will cry!
The cameraman was trying to hold back his laughter, but his professionalism kept him from laughing out loud. He gave Mr. Mammon a thumbs-up.
Awesome!! Just be arrogant!
As for Caitlin and the others, Caitlin still smiled, while Platinum and Serena were pensive.
Mr. Mammon once swept through the Indigo Plateau Conference with just one Pokémon?
Viola blinked, looking at Mr. Mammon. Honestly, if she wasn't biased, she truly thought Mr. Mammon was very handsome.
The youthful exuberance and arrogance of the young man were fully expressed in his words.
"Hehe… It seems Mr. Mammon is not very satisfied with his tournament journey. I watched the final video of that Indigo Plateau Conference, and many viewers felt it was a pity that you didn't participate in the Elite Challenge at that time."
"Why didn't you challenge then? Was it because you weren't confident in succeeding?"
Alexa quickly skipped this topic and asked another question.
"I'm not interested in being the Kanto Champion." Mr. Mammon replied naturally.
"Wow~ So it's not that you're not confident, but that you're not interested? Mr. Mammon is truly very confident."
Alexa exclaimed with a teasing 'wow.'
"Then, after last year, you joined Team Rockets at the beginning of this year. Can you tell us why you joined this Evil Organization?"
Then Alexa pursed her lips, her tone a little cautious, yet also a little excited and eager, as she asked her third question.
Huh? Evil Organization?!
The cameraman was stunned, holding his camera blankly.
And Viola immediately tensed up, looking at Mr. Mammon with extreme nervousness.
These words were equivalent to exposing Mr. Mammon's identity!
Mr. Mammon showed no surprise at hearing this. He leaned back on the sofa, his smile a little wicked as he raised his hand to prop up his chin.
"Why did I join Team Rockets?"
Mr. Mammon repeated the question. How should he make this up?
