Chapter 353: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [353]
Inside the Principal's Office
Samuel Oak and Professor Kukui, who had just arrived at the school, both frowned as they listened to Lillie's account.
If not for hearing it directly from Lillie, it would have been almost unimaginable that the Aether Foundation—a group known for rescuing Pokémon—could be secretly involved in illegal Pokémon research.
If anyone else had said this, they likely wouldn't have believed it. But since it came from Lillie, the claim carried credibility.
"Here's a key question: does President Lusamine know about this?" Luo Yuan asked, cutting straight to the heart of the matter.
To Kukui and the others, the critical issue now was whether Lusamine, as the president of the Aether Foundation, was aware of these activities.
If she was unaware, it could mean rogue individuals within the foundation were behind it. In that case, they could work with Lusamine to root out the problem.
However, if Lusamine was not only aware but actively participating, the situation would be far more complicated.
Kukui turned to Lillie, awaiting her response.
"My mom... I'm not sure," Lillie said hesitantly.
Logically, there was no way her mother, as the president, wouldn't know about such major activities within the Aether Foundation. Yet in Lillie's heart, she believed her Pokémon-loving mother would never participate in something like this.
