foreigner's journey

Chapter 31 Expected, Beyond Estimated

September 9st, at 1:23, somewhere in the Goude Desert.

The surrounding hillsides and ground are full of dents and cracks.

Heather, whose suit was slightly torn and dusty, was humming and sitting on a boulder that had been broken in two. Beside him lay Ilmi Beaten, who was covered in wounds, with all fractures in his right foot and left arm. The cross sword [absolute kingship] pierced through his collarbone and firmly nailed him to the boulder.

"So, the eldest son who beat the enemy Hakka, surrender or die?"

Heather, who was texting with her cell phone, said without raising her head, "Don't worry, you can choose a way to die because you've been training with me for so long."

"I surrender."

Il was fascinated and simply neat.There was no way, not only did the body fracture in many places, but the narration nails were also consumed out of ten. The most terrible thing was that [-]% of the psychic energy in the whole body was burnt out by the cross sword that penetrated the collarbone, and there was no resistance or escape. .

Hearing this, Heather looked up and glanced at Ilmi, and then continued to bury her hair and text:
"It's quite straightforward, okay, I believe you, and it seems that you are not the kind of person who likes to make fun of your own life. Tell me, how did Chrollo hit me on the head, and start from the beginning."

Ilmi just lay motionless on the ground, with a plain tone:
"First, there was a rumor spread in the underground world and the black market two months ago, [someone got the legendary sword of fire]. At first everyone scoffed, but more and more testimonies pointed to this rumor, and the rumor became a legend , the legend has become a secret. And Kuroro should have obtained this information at that time."

"I met Chrollo half a year ago because of a mission, and the mission was terminated because of a fight with him. I felt this person was very interesting, so I added him to my client group. Later, there were occasional exchanges. , He also entrusted me with a task that was not too difficult. Two days ago, Chrollo contacted me and said that he would entrust me with a task, uh, this task has nothing to do with you, can you omit it?"

"No."

"Okay, he asked me to find the meeting place of the leader of the underground auction organizer 'Ten Old Men', and wait for his order. Once the next stage order is issued, kill the ten old men and use the needle to control them according to the preset settings. The line announced to the gangster under his command through a remote video call that the reward is 70 billion rennis."

"you alone?"

"No, because this task is a bit troublesome, so I invited my younger brother and my great-grandfather to help out, and I need to pay them 5 million and 30 billion ringni respectively."

"...You are really an honest character who can answer questions."

"I'm a prisoner, and I still have this self-consciousness. Do I need to continue?"

"continue."

"Then just eleven hours ago, Chrollo sent me another message, temporarily adding a mission, asking me to find your traces in Youkexin City, and if possible, capture you alive and bring you to him, especially The requirement is not to seriously damage your brain and limbs, and the reward is 50 billion yuan. I happened to be in Youkexin City, so I asked my younger brother and great grandfather to continue to find the ten old men, and I acted alone. From this point of view, this business is really not worthwhile. ."

Heather had finished sending the text message at this time, put the phone back in his pocket, and looked at Ilmi:

"What do you think Chrollo wants to catch me alive?"

"...To steal your mind power."

Ilmi said it all without reservation: "Three years ago, Dad took over a deal to assassinate the No. [-] Brigade. According to him, this deal was very uneconomical. During this period, he saw Chrollo's Ability, it is said that as long as the harsh conditions are met, you should be able to steal the opponent's mind ability, which is very tricky. I want to come to Chrollo to arrest you to take this embodied cross sword. By the way, my mind is about to be destroyed. It's burnt dry, can I take it?"

"Let's burn it for a while, anyway, it won't die for a while."

Heather held his chin and thought for a while, then said, "If you catch me, how are you going to pay Chrollo?"

"..."

Ilmi rolled his eyes and said dryly: "I won't turn against my employer. If you force me to help you kill Chrollo, I will give up and choose death."

Heather rejoiced: "You have a lot of guts. You have a good relationship with Chrollo."

Ilmi closed his eyes: "No, this is the bottom line of the killer family. Well, let's do it."

Heather pulled up the 'absolute kingship', squatted down and patted the head of Il fans: "Ann, I won't kill you for the time being, and I won't force you to have a life-and-death confrontation with Kuroro. Because this is [someone] ]’s request. In fact, [Kuroro is eyeing my mind ability] and [people who beat the enemy’s family may come to assassinate me] were also revealed to me by him. I have an idea to get the best of both worlds. Want to hear it?"

"...?"

Ilmi opened her eyes with confusion on her face.

........................

Youkexin City, a building, the second basement [interrogation room].

Looking at Wojin lying on the operating table, tied up with five flowers and falling into a coma, Kurapika's face was cloudy.

This guy is one of the members of the Phantom Troupe, slaughtering his entire clan and poaching all the red-eyed murderers.

In the past five years, I have rehearsed and rehearsed how to retaliate cruelly in my heart countless times, but when I really saw them, the flames in my heart were still burning, but my mind was in chaos.

Palo, what am I supposed to do...

hum!
At this time, Kurapika's mobile phone vibrated, text message?He took out his mobile phone from his pocket with some doubts. At this time, who would text him?

【I'll wait for you at the appointed place. 】

Hisoka...

Although there was no signature, Kurapika immediately guessed who sent the text message.He fought Hisoka in the last round of the hunter exam, and the other party used [Spider's Secret] to persuade him to cooperate with him.

It seems that it is time.

"Captain, I'm going out."

Kurapika put away his phone, said hello to Dazorin, the captain of his Nothra gang bodyguard team, and went out.

Half an hour later, he arrived at a slum in the south of the city.

In an abandoned building with no one, Kurapika saw Hisoka, who just sat in the dark and empty hall, not hiding his thoughts.

"It's early."

Hisoka put his hands on his chin and sat lazily on a dilapidated bench: "Don't be so vigilant, you can rest assured, because I don't want to fight you yet."

Kurapika's attitude was very cold: "I don't want to say more, just tell me about you."

"Hey, okay."

Hisoka let out a weird laugh: "There are thirteen members of the brigade, and everyone has spider tattoos and numbers."

"Members are sometimes replaced. As long as you kill the current members, you can join the group. In addition, if no one is replaced, the leader will replenish the members."

"The main activity is robbery, killing and sometimes doing good deeds."

"Three years ago, I replaced No. 4. The purpose of joining the regiment was to fight with the regiment leader Chrollo, but it has not been able to do so. Because he is very well-prepared, at least two regiment members will follow him at any time, and every As soon as the next mission is over, he will disappear immediately, and he will not be found at all."

"So I came to the conclusion that it is difficult for a person to achieve a goal, isn't it?"

"...That's why you found me and wanted to join forces with me?"

Kurapika's expression remained the same: "But, I don't trust you."

"Oh hoo~ simple and straightforward."

Hisoka smiled disapprovingly, turned his head into the darkness and said, "What about your opinion?"

Step, step, step...

The sound of footsteps came from the darkness, and Kurapika immediately covered his body with his thoughts and assumed an attacking stance. Has Hisoka brought other people?Are you a member of a tour group?

Originally, the atmosphere became more solemn, but when Kurapika saw Heather walking out of the darkness, her expression froze.

Teacher, brother?
