Didn't utter a word to interfere with her observation and research.
Just watched the Lillipup inside the glass dome, looking quite aggressive, with red eyes, continually bashing its head against the glass.
Wild Lillipup, not very strong, but its gentle nature has clearly been affected by something.
It's somewhat like the Thundurus Natsuhiko encountered, but the influence on Lillipup is much greater than on Thundurus.
Physical development is average, abilities are average, but aggression and attack capabilities are abnormal... Natsuhiko silently offered some conclusions through observation and analysis.
"Excretion is normal, feeding ability has become vigorous, indicating energy consumption exceeding the norm; can't rule out the influence of food," Dr. Cypress murmured.
"But this possibility is very low," Natsuhiko couldn't help but add.
"Exactly." Dr. Cypress nodded while bowing her head, "Normal excretion is the best proof. Is it an injection... hmm?"
As she spoke, she suddenly became aware.
That's when she noticed Natsuhiko.
"Natsuhiko?" Dr. Cypress was somewhat surprised, "Why are you here?"
They had met a few times not long ago during academic exchanges and had some degree of interaction.
Natsuhiko helplessly glanced at Lance beside him who had his head up, "Let's not talk about this troublesome stuff. Dr. Cypress, are you researching the condition of these wild Pokémon?"
Lance: Troublesome???
"Yes, recently, some similar situations have appeared among Pokémon outside Lu Town.
Lila and the others believe this might be some result of the Plasma Team's research or effects they brought, if we can investigate clearly, it might help future actions a bit," Dr. Cypress explained.
As she spoke, she added a bit helplessly, "But this isn't my field of expertise after all."
Dr. Cypress's most famous topic, which enabled her to become a doctor, is "The Origin of Pokémon," mixing historical archaeology research directions.
Even though she's relatively young, she's not as comprehensive as Professor Oak or Dr. Yamanashi in those areas.
"Luckily, you're here, Natsuhiko. I believe if we work together, we can find the problem," Dr. Cypress said with a smile.
Her words clearly showed her recognition of Natsuhiko's capabilities as a rising star in research.
Natsuhiko couldn't help but touch his nose, "Dr. Cypress is joking."
He understands his own situation.
He was just relying on foresight and intuition, in Pokémon research, at most, he just recently stepped in, can write papers, but real research requires these experts.
However.
Regarding the Pokémon's condition, perhaps he could say something.
"Look at these."
Disregarding Natsuhiko's modest words, Dr. Cypress handed over the collected data and observed content from this period to him.
Natsuhiko quickly skimmed through it.
He murmured to himself, "It shouldn't be caused by injections; although the collected blood proved that their blood activity is indeed much higher, there's no residue of abnormal elements, and emotional changes or hormone changes can also lead to changes in blood activity. The fluctuation magnitude and frequency haven't exceeded the threshold..."
"Right, I think the same," Dr. Cypress said. "Their sex hormones and adrenaline levels have clearly exceeded the threshold."
Natsuhiko glanced at her, slightly hesitated, and tentatively suggested.
"Perhaps consider sound waves?"
Dr. Cypress's eyes brightened, "You mean special wavelengths?"
"Just like the Vespiquen's signal to Combee..."
"Simulating hierarchical influence? Stimulating hormone secretion?"
"Thus leading to increased aggression."
"Even affecting brainwave frequency."
"..."
The two discussed while referencing data, as if they had found some breakthrough.
At this moment, the general head of operations Lila had finished her tasks and came over with Kalent behind them.
Not just them,
The staff inside the entire tent had been more or less drawn over.
Kalent listened to their exchange dumbfounded; he understood every word separately, but the combined terms left him a bit puzzled.
"Inspector Lila, they..."
Despite her petite appearance, Lila's strength and identity guaranteed her authority and prestige.
"This is what you call professionalism."
She gave a satisfied glance at Lance, "Now I understand why you insisted on bringing someone over."
Lance rubbed his nose.
Looking to the sky.
Someone finally understood him.
Lance couldn't help but ask, "Inspector Lila, can you understand?"
"No," Lila replied candidly.
If she could understand, why would she need these experts?
"Before, I'd only heard the name of Mr. Natsuhiko; he is indeed an incredible talent. Our International Criminal Police are lacking such people," Lila exclaimed.
