No! Let James come back and get married, this is the answer and solution he wants!!
He opened his mouth to say something, but Ash obviously wouldn't give him the chance to speak.
Ash, who knows the inside story, would not get involved in this mess:
"Well, we'll figure out what to do."
"Just wait for the result with peace of mind."
After saying that, Ash took Xiaogang and Misty and left the hall directly.
The middle-aged bald butler with a mustache was left with his mouth opening and closing.
James' story is very interesting and impressive.
He was born into a billionaire family and enjoyed the most aristocratic treatment and life since childhood, but he was not happy.
Because James' parents wanted James to become a useful talent, they hired 23 private teachers for James.
Teach James reading, etiquette, violin and piano every day.
But what James hated most since childhood was the upper-class life where one had to pay attention to etiquette even when holding a spoon.
There was only one Growlithe in the family named Xiaoka, who was James' only friend when he was a child.
As time went by, James began to get bored and often skipped classes to play elsewhere.
James later revealed that he had wanted to buy Chimecho at a festival.
But I didn't get any because I didn't have pocket money at that time. By the time I had pocket money, the festival was over.
This also made James very sad.
When he was a child, James' parents often held dances, but James felt bored at every dance.
At a dance party by chance, James met a Stephanie named Jessebelle and fell in love with her.
In order to confess his love to her, James wrote a love letter and put it in the treasure chest given by his father and wanted to show it to Jessebelle.
Although Jessebelle also likes James, she cares a lot about aristocratic etiquette and thinks James is uncultured.
Jessebelle wants to teach James to be a noble gentleman, and she demands that James must exchange Growlithe for Skitty.
James couldn't stand Jessebelle's willfulness and buried the treasure chest.
Later, when James' parents saw that James liked her and Jessebelle also came from a noble family, they felt that they were a perfect match.
In addition, they also wanted James to obtain the so-called happiness and form a complete aristocratic family.
So they forced him to get engaged to Jessebelle.
After that, Jessebelle, with the tacit consent of James' parents, often went to James' home to force James to marry her.
James couldn't stand it anymore and ran away from home.
And it must be said that James, who was born into an aristocratic family, really did not have any of the aristocratic bad habits.
Regardless of whether it is real practical skills, the belief in wanting to do things, or the ability to sell lunch boxes, it is a good way to sell them!
Even on top of that, they may have to go hungry from time to time and have no idea where to eat, and they may also suffer from successive failures and setbacks, leading a miserable life.
He still was not defeated by life. Instead, he and Meowth Jessie faced life happily.
Well, at the same time, I would rather die than return to my home.
"By the way, why doesn't James want to go home..."
Sitting on the steps at the door, Misty was confused: "Obviously their family is so rich and they live such a luxurious life.
"Isn't this much more comfortable than constantly running around and working hard outside?"
"Maybe there are reasons we don't know..."
Xiao Gang pondered beside him, "Also, the life of the nobility doesn't seem as glamorous as it appears."
"Maybe there are some things inside that outsiders cannot know, and we are not James, so we don't understand his thoughts..."
Ash clapped his hands, "Anyway, just bring him here within 24 hours.
"But why do we have to find James back..."
Misty still didn't quite understand, "Obviously this is someone else's family affair, and it has nothing to do with us...
"At least he should be able to attend the funeral in time."
Xiaogang considered it from a humanitarian perspective. "Although we haven't met many times and it wasn't a pleasant experience, at least we know each other."
"Just take a look at it, tell him about it, so that he can have a chance to see his parents for the last time, so that he won't have regrets in the future..."
At this point, Xiao Gang paused and said, "Of course, whether he is willing to come back or not is his own business."
"That's right..."
Misty sighed. "It sounds simple, but where do I start looking for it?"
"We don't have to look for it."
Ash raised his head and pointed his chin forward: "Someone will bring him here.
"Um??"
Misty and Xiaogang both looked up subconsciously, and coincidentally, they heard a noisy noise coming from the front.
"Ah, don't pull me!!"
"James, don't resist so much!!"
Right in front of the trio, Meowth and Jessie, a cat and a person, were desperately dragging a small bed.
The latter, on the other hand, looked very resistant and reluctant.
"James, did you know that your parents passed away?!"
As soon as Xiaogang came up, he immediately told James to be filial to his parents: "James, go to the funeral as soon as possible!!"
According to normal people's thinking, suddenly hearing the news of their parents' death.
No matter whether it is true or false, you will be stunned there for a while.
However, James's reaction was...
"I don't want to!!"
He protested loudly and fiercely.
"Um?!!"
Jessie and Meowth, who had dragged him here, looked dangerous:
"You haven't looked right since the beginning!"
"You're going to be a millionaire soon, and we can eat the best cat food, but why are you acting so weird?!"
"DB..."
After resisting, James looked hesitant. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.
RAB...
"Ahhhhh, my head hurts so much!!"
He could only hold his head and rub it frantically: "I don't know!"
"I can't remember anything!!"
Misty and the others were stunned. It was the first time they saw James like this:
"What's wrong with you? Did you lose your memory?"
"F..."
James put his head in his hands:
"I have all the memories of failing the Pokémon research exam and then becoming a bad boy and a speed racer...
"But the only thing I remember before that was a scene, which was..."
"On a snowy, cold night...
James' eyes showed a look of nostalgia:
"I walked shivering in the cold with my beloved Pokémon Growlithe...
"Later, I, I still can't remember anything..."
James suddenly shuddered, interrupting his recollections.
It seemed as if there was something extremely terrifying in his dusty memories of the past.
"In short, you must take this opportunity to get all the inheritance!"
Jessie doesn't care about that, all she cares about now is money!
"But, in that case..."
Ash took the rare opportunity to raise his hand: "He must marry his fiancée within 24 hours."
"Just get the money and dump her!!"
Jessie said nonchalantly, "This way, this luxurious house will all belong to James!!"
"Cats need coins, and Pokémon need coins too!!"
Meowth was also imagining the future.
"This is too outrageous!!"
James couldn't stand it anymore and simply ran away: "No, I just don't!!"
He totally couldn't accept it.
"Don't let him escape~!"
"Meow~!!"
The looks of Jessie and Meowth instantly became sharp, and at this moment, they reached a consensus instantly.
They got out a set of ropes from somewhere and threw them out, tying James up instantly.
"Stop it now!"
"Whether to get married or not is his own problem!!"
Misty and Xiaogang both felt a little uncomfortable.
"It's so noisy!!"
Jessie was impatient, and Meowth Miao also echoed: "This is our own problem!!"
Our own people... okay.
Ash didn't say much, just waved his hand and summoned the Rotom Pokédex.
Click.
A photo of Jessie and Meowth tying up James, one with the other cat, has just been released.
Ash found a phone number and sent a photo via text message.
That was the phone number he had written down on a previous missing person notice.
If I remember correctly, the phone number left on it should be...…
"Ahhh, Master James!!!"
In the room behind the three people, there was an equally unacceptable howl.
"What the hell is going on?! Why does he look like he's been tied up?!!"
"Could it be that he was kidnapped?!"
"Hey! No wonder, I was wondering why Mr. James hasn't come home for so long!!"
"Wait for me! Master James, I'm going to rescue you right now!!!"
There was a lot of clanging and chaotic noise coming from the house.
Bang!!
The door was hastily opened, and a middle-aged butler with a bald mustache and somewhat untidy clothes rushed out in a panic.
"Wait for me, James..."
He just shouted out this sentence in a hurry, no, it should be half a sentence.
Then he stopped abruptly, stared blankly at the scene in front of him with eyes wide open.
"Mmmmm!!"
The tied-up James was struggling hard, while Meowth and Jessie behind him had the excitement of money written all over their faces.
"I sent it to you."
Ash, who was sitting on the steps next to him, smiled and waved at the stunned middle-aged bald butler with a mustache.
"You asked me to find James, and now I have found him for you."
The middle-aged bald butler with a mustache: "..."
He nodded there subconsciously.
Well, I did find it, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
Sure enough, the saying "If you have any difficulties, just find Mr. Ash, he will definitely be able to help you solve them" is really true.
As expected, he really did find Master James!
And it's so fast!!
That's it...
Why does the current style of painting seem a little off?
"Mmmmm!!!"
"Ah, Master James!!!"
Seeing James almost rolling his eyes due to being strangled, the middle-aged bald butler with a mustache finally came to his senses.
"You damned fellows, what do you want to do to Master James?!!"
Bald middle-aged man with mustache
The family immediately began a fearless charge:
"If you have anything to say to me, put Master James down!!"
"I'm going to fight you bad guys!!"
Jessie and Meowth: "???"
Why does something seem to be wrong?!!
The scene became a little chaotic for a moment.
But all this has nothing to do with Ash.
"Aren't we going to help?"
Misty looked at the noisy scene, stepped back and asked.
"It's hard for a judge to judge family affairs. All we have to do is help the housekeeper find James."
Ash was there watching the show happily.
"Now that our work is done, the rest has nothing to do with us."
"Pika~Pika."
The Pikachu on his shoulder also took out some tomato-flavored potato chips from his backpack.
Well, if I give the electric mouse eating potato chips to Professor Oak, he might be able to write another Senryu song based on it.
"Yeah...that's true."
Misty thought about it, looked at Xiaogang, and then continued to sit there with peace of mind.
It is not easy to eat melons from rich people's homes!
What happened afterwards was also an eye-opener for Ash and the others.
In the end, James couldn't win over Jessie and the middle-aged bald mustache butler.
She was forcibly brought to a luxurious room, in front of the so-called mourning hall of her parents.
Then~~~
"James, welcome home!"
"It's great to see you looking so healthy!"
James' parents, wearing a blue suit and a red dress respectively, stood out from the coffin around the same time.
"I knew it would be like this!"
James looked disgusted, "You guys have such bad personalities!"
"As long as you can lure me back, you don't care even if I pretend to be dead!"
He knows his parents very well.
As for why I can recall this memory now...
His so-called amnesia was all fake.
"Lost your memory? Okay, I'll help you remember!"
James' father was happy to help him: "You are James, and now you have to prepare for the wedding ceremony!"
His mother had already started to call out: "Butler, let's hold the wedding as soon as possible!"
The middle-aged bald butler with a mustache: "Yes!"
James: "I don't want to!"
Then there was another round of chaos.
What is unexpected is that James's marriage partner, Jessebelle, actually happens to live in James's house.
When she hadn't shown up yet, Meowth commented on her words like this:
"No way, it's a beautiful voice like a silver bell! I guess she must be very different from Jessie! She is gentle and beautiful!
Jessie:
Anyway, I am 0.0 not gentle enough!
However, when Jessebelle revealed her true appearance, everyone was shocked:
"Looks so much like Jessie!!"
Except for the hairstyle, the rest of their faces and hair color are carved from the same mold!
While adventuring in the Sinnoh Region, Ash's Monferno dug up a treasure chest containing a love letter from James to Jessebelle.
Ash and his team came to James' villa and handed it over to the housekeeper. After James found it, he tried to take it back and destroy it.
However, the housekeeper informed Jessebelle, who arrived with a group of bodyguards to capture James.
Finally, James is desperate and asks Ash to let Pikachu blow him, Jessie, and Meowth away.
But Jessebelle rushed towards James when the explosion occurred, and as a result, James, Meowth and Jessebelle were blown away together.
But Jessie ended up in another place and was mistaken for Jessebelle by Jessebelle's bodyguard.
It was even the reason why James later formed a team with Jessie and had such a good relationship with her that he was willing to help Jessie in the Rocket Team's trial.
It also helps that Jessie looks exactly like Jessebelle.
After all, Jessebelle was the one James liked from the beginning.
But he really couldn't stand her high-pressure control.
In terms of personality, Jessebelle and Jessie are similar in some ways.
And at the family level, James is not respected.
In the words of James' parents:
"We are a famous family with a glorious history. As the heir, you have the obligation to marry your fiancée.
"So as to maintain the family tradition of our noble family!"
But James was not convinced: "If there are obligations, there should be rights!!"
It is really hard to imagine that such thought-provoking words come from a Pokémon children's anime.
Spider-Man can only understand that "with great power comes great responsibility", and he is destined to never understand this realm in his life.
