The strongest magician who started as a hunter.

Chapter 49: Long time no see Hisoka

One month later.

The knight and Finks, who happened to be passing through Xiangha City, arrived at the location of the shadow and looked at the ruins and deep ravines in front of them.

The two originally planned to come to inform the shadow of the follow-up 'assembly'.

I never expected to find out that the figure was dead after arriving at the location.

"What an exaggerated destructive power..."

The knight couldn't help but be a little surprised, then carefully studied the current scene and analyzed:
"To be able to destroy buildings and the ground like this is definitely not something that the guy in the shadow can do... It seems that he must have encountered a master of the strengthening or releasing system."

"In terms of damage range alone, this guy seems to be able to compete with Wo Jin."

With that said, the knight looked at Finks aside and said seriously: "Finks, who do you think is stronger between him and Wo Jin?"

"Hey, do you need to say that? It must be a fortune!" Finks said disdainfully,
"Wo Jin's strength is one of the best in the brigade, but being able to defeat a guy like Mian Ying... isn't that great."

The knight said: "In any case, the strength shown by the other party should not be underestimated. The most important thing to do now... is to inform the leader of the death of the figure first and listen to the leader's arrangements."

"Yeah." Finks nodded sensibly.

The knight immediately took out his cell phone and dialed the number of the group leader Chrollo.

After accepting.

The knight then completely conveyed the scene in front of him, including his own thoughts and inferences, to the leader.

After Chrollo heard this, he didn't show much reaction and just asked calmly:

"Approximately when did it happen?"

The knight made a rough judgment: "From a visual inspection, it may have been a few weeks, or a month or two. The time should not be very long."

"Are there any obvious clues or traces left by the opponent?"

"Unfortunately, there is only a pile of gravel, sawdust and dust at the scene. Even if there is, Finks and I can't investigate anything." The knight said.

"let it go."

Chrollo said: "Next, I will arrange for others to investigate the murderer of Mian Ying through the Internet. Once I get the target information, I will issue instructions based on the situation."

"Next, the news of the masked figure's death will be conveyed to all team members. Everyone should ensure their own safety and pay attention to suspicious targets.

Even if the target suspected of being the murderer is found, no one can act rashly without my permission. "

"Understood." The knight said.

"In addition, next I will search for suitable people to join the brigade to fill the vacancies left by the shadow. I will notify you when the candidates are confirmed," Chrollo said.

After speaking, the call ends.

Chrollo sat alone in the room, looking through the books on the table and lost in thought.

"The investigation will take time..."

"However, the vacancy left by Mianying must be filled by finding suitable members."

While Chrollo was thinking, he thought of Hisoka, whom Madge had recommended before.

Although he has never met the other party, according to Madge's description, the other party's overall strength is pretty good and meets the standards for joining the group.

As Ma Qi was a veteran when the brigade was established, Chrollo naturally trusted his judgment and vision, so he decided to contact Ma Qi and extend an invitation to Hisoka.

For Hisoka, who had already planned it, this invitation was superfluous.

With almost no hesitation, he agreed to the invitation to join the group.

He just wanted to use this status to get closer to the leader of the group, and looked forward to one day being able to compete with him.

……

the other side.

After defeating the shadow.

Sage, who lost his eyes, was taken away by his brother Sam.

After You bid farewell to the two of them, with the new traces on his resume, he was able to receive high-paying and difficult commissions more easily than before.

However, ever since Sachi had the experience of having his eyes taken away by a shadow.

Worry also gradually prefers to accept single-person commissions.

Even if it is a task that must involve other people, he will inform the client in advance... that he is not willing to accept teaming up with others.

After all, sometimes, having too many people to take care of can tie up your hands and feet. Even he can't take care of too many people.

At first, most clients were particularly dissatisfied with this.

But later, the client also discovered that whether it was protecting the target, hunting criminals, or escorting treasure... basically every time, a person named You could complete the commission perfectly and quickly.

Therefore, the client's trust in this 'white-haired hunter' has gradually increased.

Since most of the clients were private tycoons or mafia bosses, You gradually gained a reputation among the gangsters.

And I don’t know if it’s because of his appearance.

As the fame grows.

You also found that among the designated commissions he received, the proportion of women among the clients was gradually increasing.

……

Time flies by in the blink of an eye.

Come to 1996, early May.

Today's worry is already approaching the age of 15, and his figure is much more mature in all aspects.

His overall strength and status have been greatly improved, but at the same time, his character has become more cold and withdrawn than before.

There are many reasons.

Apart from being alone for a long time, there is another reason...

On this day, it was noon.

You were wearing a suit of well-fitting casual clothes and sunglasses. Following the message received on his mobile phone, he came to a dilapidated building in a remote location.

Entering it, you can see a red-haired man whom you haven't seen for a long time, Hisoka.
"Yo~"

Seeing You coming, Hisoka, who had been waiting for a long time, smiled and said hello, saying:

"Long time no see. You've really grown a lot."

Youyou looked at Xisuo and said:

"You specially forged your identity and entrusted me to come here. What's the purpose... just tell me."

Hisoka smiled and said: "Haha... you are really indifferent."

"I know very well that you are secretly investigating the Phantom Troupe, so I thought of giving you a big gift."

"Besides, if I guess correctly, it was you who killed the shadow... right?"

"So what." You said calmly.

Hisoka smiled, turned back to the topic, and said, "How about making a deal with me?"

"I know the message you want, but in exchange, you have to have a one-on-one fair showdown with me."

"Let's talk about it first, what news... If it is really what I need, I will naturally agree to it." You said.

"About the brigade's next move."

"how do you know?"

"Because thanks to you killing the shadow, it didn't take long for me to successfully join the group. Although it was a matter of time, it seems that if it is too late, it won't be my turn this time."

Hearing this, he understood clearly and agreed to the other party's deal without much hesitation.

Achieved.

Hisoka said with a satisfied look:

"The brigade's next move is located in the National Collection Hall of the Cajun Empire."

"This time everyone is gathering together, and the action time is scheduled for the collection exhibition in two months."

"Also, I would like to remind you that if you want to enter, you need to purchase a quota... As far as I know, the quota for admission is very few. But with your strength, you should easily be able to find a way to enter."

"Is the news true?" You confirmed.

"At least that's the information I received here." Sisuo said, "I can't guarantee 100% accuracy."

You could tell that what the other party said was true, and considering that Hisoka's character was not someone who liked to falsify in such matters, he immediately turned around and left.

Hisoka looked at You's leaving figure and asked with great interest: "Also, do you want to know who killed those brothers?"

"No need."

You stopped and said coldly: "I won't let any of those guys go anyway."

"Besides, you're probably not one of them."
