Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 147 "The scene of the red-eyed transaction"

July 3rd, agreed time is 7pm.

It rained all day today and finally stopped. The road was still a little slippery. The driver drove carefully to prevent the tires from slipping and affecting the young lady in the back seat.

Nion was humming softly and shaking her head excitedly, just like a little girl going on an outing.

The maid Arisa was much calmer. She turned sideways and looked at Nion with a smile, her hands resting on her thighs covered by her kimono. Her temperament made her look like Nion's sister.

In fact, although Nion and Arisa are master and servant, they have been together for many years and have been together day and night, so they have some close feelings for each other.

Dazonie was sitting in the passenger seat. From time to time he looked out the window at the street scenes passing by, and from time to time he looked through the rearview mirror inside the car to observe the young lady in the back seat.

The eldest lady can relax, but he, the captain of the guard, cannot relax.

Fortunately, the five black cars of the Nosra family drove out of the main road of the left city of the Twin Cities unimpeded and stopped at the banks of the Theodore River.

The night breeze was cool and the surface of the river reflected the crescent moon in the sky and the street lights on the river bank, with scattered lights.

When Nion got out of the car, the first thing she did was to stretch, breathe in the fresh air, and close her eyes happily. She felt a little suffocated after only staying in the car for twenty minutes.

"Miss." Arisa reminded from the side, "Someone is coming."

Nion then turned her head and saw a short figure walking towards the river bank. He was holding a large bottle in his arms and looked timid.

He was obviously the seller of the Fiery Red Eyes this time.

The man took only a few steps closer when he was stopped by the guards of the Nosra family. He shrank back in fear and did not dare to resist at all.

"Rinsen." Dazonie called one of his two capable subordinates, "Go and search him. Don't miss any details."

Linxian, who was wearing a black robe, nodded silently, walked towards the short man, stretched out his hands from his long sleeves, and covered the short man's body.

He understood what Captain Dazonie meant. If it was just a body search, any guard here would be experienced.

The reason why Captain Dazone instructed him to take action was to confirm whether the short man was a Nen user, so only someone who was also a Nen user could find out clearly.

Dazonie, Rinsen and the ape-like Shachimono are the few Nen users in the Nosra family. They know the horror of Nen better than ordinary guards.

Even if the short man himself lacks combat power, he can still complete the assassination in the instant he gets close to Miss Nion by relying on some special mental abilities.

Captain Dazonie must be on guard.

If something like this happened, it would be a serious dereliction of duty on the part of these guards.

However, after confirming it in detail, Linxian turned around and shook his head and said, "His sperm orifice is not open, he doesn't look like a Nen user."

"Then let's keep this distance when doing this." Dazonie was still cautious, "Rinsen, check to see if the Fiery Red Eyes is real."

Nion raised her hands and shouted, "Let me see, I'm an expert in human body collection!"

If Arisa, the maid, hadn't stopped her, she would have rushed towards the short man with the flaming eyes.

Dazonie frowned and added helplessly: "Rinxian, bring it over to Miss Nion for review."

Linxian agreed and snatched the cloth-wrapped bottle from the seller.

The seller looked on timidly, not daring to snatch it back.

Linxian pulled the cloth away, looked into the bottle for a while, knocked on it for a while, and only brought it over after confirming that there was no special device.

He held the bottle filled with solution and raised it in front of Miss Nyon.

Nion took a step closer, touched her hands to the cold glass, and looked into the pair of crimson eyes through the solution.

"It's them!" Nion cried out in surprise, "These must be the Fiery Red Eyes! I can even see the anger and unwillingness of the deceased before his tragic death, preserved like amber!"

"What a hopeless beauty! No wonder it's called 'one of the seven most beauties in the world'! Ahhhh, great! I finally got them!"

Nion turned to look at the short man in the distance and asked curiously, "Who are you? How did you get the flaming eyes? I have searched many sources, but I haven't found even a pair!"

The short man mumbled something in a low voice, but no one could hear it clearly.

The guard next to him pushed him and shouted, "Didn't you hear the question our young lady asked you?"

The short man was pushed to the ground, trembling for a while, and then he raised his voice: "I... I am a teacher in a cram school..."

"Cram school teacher?" Nion was quite surprised after hearing it clearly. "How did you, a cram school teacher, get the Fiery Red Eyes?"

"It was an accident..." The short man lowered his eyebrows and answered, "There was a car accident... I saw the people in the car died... Fiery Eyes was held by him... I... I just..."

"Then why do you want to sell the Red Eyes now?" Nion asked.

"I... I'm short of money..." The short man said with a sad face, "The cram school... was suddenly closed down... I owed a lot of debt to the casino... It was usury..." There is no need to elaborate on the details afterwards. As the daughter of the Nosra family, Nyon has seen several cases of thieves robbing each other, and the scene was probably similar.

She was a little disappointed. She had thought that this cram school teacher had some special channels or background to get the Fiery Red Eye. Now it seemed like it was just a coincidence. She would have to find other Fiery Red Eyes herself.

"Dazonie," Nion ordered coldly, "pay the money."

"Yes, Miss Nion." Dazonie agreed, but he had no intention of shirking his obligation. He signaled to Xiachimono beside him with his eyes.

Xia Qimono understood and carried the suitcase over and placed it on the grass in front of the short man who was lying on the ground.

He laughed and said, "Look at you, you coward! Count the money and get out of here!"

The short man looked up in surprise, as if he had not expected that the Nosra family would actually pay. He quickly reached out to grab the suitcase and opened it with trembling hands.

The neatly stacked money banknotes inside made the short man's eyes widen and a greedy look appeared on his face, just like the way his eyes turned red when he saw the car accident scene that day.

Without counting, he simply closed his suitcase, climbed up, bowed and scraped to Nion with a few flattering words, then turned and ran away at the speed of a fly, falling down several times during the process.

The Nosra family found this funny and felt much more relaxed.

"Miss Niong." Dazonie also smiled at this time, "Let's go back."

"Okay." Nion smiled and turned to look at the maid, "Arisa, hold the Red-Eye for me. I want to take a good look at it on the way back, and I also want to send a few photos to my father..."

Before Arisa responded, she heard a strange "puff" sound coming from not far away.

Dazonie's smile immediately disappeared. He looked in the direction where the strange noise came from, and heard another "puff" sound. This time he could see it clearly.

Suddenly, a street lamp bulb exploded along the way, scattering sparks like stars in the sky, and the area became dark.

puff!
Another street lamp bulb exploded and was getting closer and closer to the Nosra family. It looked like darkness was gradually swallowing up the light.

"Something's wrong!" Dazonie frowned and shouted, "Everyone, pay attention, be careful of enemy attacks!"

He did not sense any murderous aura, nor did he see any actual figure, but his years of experience in the sea of ​​blood and corpses made him know that something was definitely approaching.

The Nosra family members immediately became nervous, drew their pistols, and prepared for battle.

As a maid, Arisa also serves as a meat shield when necessary, and takes the initiative to stand in front of Nion.

On the other hand, Niong, who was often assassinated, looked calm and said with a smile: "Why are you so nervous? It's just that the street light exploded..."

She was not very afraid. So many people tried to assassinate or kidnap her, but none of them succeeded. She managed to escape danger every time, and sometimes there was no "danger" at all.

At most, a few guards of the Nosra family would die, maybe strangers, maybe familiar ones, such as Dazonie, Xiachimono, and Linxian. In short, it would not affect her.

It doesn't matter if they die, I can just replace them with a new group of guards... Well... Arisa can't die... Arisa has been with me for so many years, it would be a pity if she died...

As Nion was thinking so naively, she burst into laughter twice.

This time, two street lamp bulbs exploded in succession, and the darkness approached rapidly, giving a sense of oppression like a giant beast approaching.

However, what Dazonie saw was a slender figure, and a series of clanging sounds were heard, as if some metal chain was dragging on the ground.

The guards of the Nosra family saw a blond young man standing in the shadow of the street lamp, staring at them with hatred in his eyes.

"brute……"

"You scumbags..."

Dazonie heard the other party's low roar and felt the other party's hatred. He didn't have time to think about the reason and immediately shouted the order: "Fire!"

The guards all had pistols in their hands, but the distance was enough to shoot the enemy. As soon as they heard the order, they raised their guns and shot without saying a word. For a while, the sound of bang bang bang was endless.

The blond young man's movements were unusually agile. He dodged the bullet with a few moves. Then he raised his right arm and a silver snake flew up.

The silver snake revealed its true form under the moonlight; it turned out to be an interlocking silver-gray chain.

It twisted as if it had life, clanging and deflecting the numerous bullets that were fired at it, sparks flying everywhere!

"A Nen user?" Xia Chimono smiled and turned to look at Dazonie. "We don't have enough firepower. Let me go?"

Dazonie observed the figure in the shadows for a while and nodded: "If we can keep him alive, then keep him alive. We need to know who dares to attack the Nosra family."

"The one who can hire a Nen user is most likely a mafia family... Damn bastards, if I find out who they are, they're doomed."

Xiachimono made an OK gesture, confidently asked the guards to cease fire, and then walked forward.
