Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 174 "The Woman Kurapika Brings Back" (Part )
When German heard what Biscuit said, he also felt a little strange, so he took the initiative to release the "circle".

After his "capacity" broke through the 90-point mark, the radius of the "circle" further expanded by 10 meters, reaching a radius of 60 meters.

The detection radius of Germann's "circle" is far beyond Kate's, but it is still not as good as Zeno, not to mention "Catwoman" and "Ant King".

Soon, his "circle" detected two movements, just like ripples in a lake hitting an obstacle and then bouncing back.

The ripples of one were pulsating violently, while the ripples of the other were quite weak.

The one pulsating violently was obviously Kurapika.

But what about the other one?

Whose weak pulsation does it belong to?
Germann informed Biscuit and Xiaodi of his detection results, and explained that Kurapika was heading there with the weakly pulsating stranger.

"Who do you think that could be?" Germain asked.

Biscuit folded his arms across his chest.

"Kurapika should be a cautious person. It's strange that he would bring a stranger to our place. As for the weak pulse, it's most likely that person is injured."

Xiaodi blinked, still holding her face in her hands, the light from the campfire making her cheeks red.

"Then it should be someone he knows, right? He would only do this if someone he knows is hurt and he thinks the other person is trustworthy."

"We'll know in a moment." German added another handful of wood to the campfire. The fire grew a little bigger and it was so hot that Xiaodi finally retreated.

After a while, Kurapika appeared at the edge of the woods.

He was indeed holding a stranger in his arms, and judging from the outline from a distance, it should be a woman.

"teacher……"

Kurapika walked over with the woman in his arms, looking awkward.

"I met her by the river and saw that she was injured, so I used the "Healing Thumb Chain" to give her emergency treatment."

"But she didn't wake up. I didn't dare to abandon her in the wilderness, so I had to bring her here."

After he said that, he laid the woman in his arms flat on the ground next to the campfire.

The woman lying on the ground with her eyes closed has long hair and a pair of ear-like hair accessories on her head with a heart pattern on them.

Her body was covered with Band-Aids and smelled of medicine, and her skin was slightly hot and red, probably because she had a fever.

“Ah.” Xiaodi looked at the woman’s face, adjusted her glasses, and recognized her. “It’s Silla. Why is she here?”

"I don't know the reason either." Kurapika shook his head.

"Shira?" Biscuit thought for a moment and asked the question that was on Germain's mind, "Is it the Shira from Meteor City? Is it the Shira who was the childhood friend of the core members of the Phantom Troupe?"

Xiaodi nodded: "It's her. She said before that she was afraid that the "Phantom Troupe" would find out that she had a connection with us, so she wanted to leave Meteor Street temporarily. I didn't expect that she would come to the Kajin Empire."

The cave was silent for a while, with only the occasional crackling of the firewood.

Finally, Kurapika sat down cross-legged and spoke with a complicated expression.

"In fact, it was when my good friend Piro and I found Shira lying on the ground, dying, near the retreat of the Kuruta tribe that year that everything that happened next happened."

"Sheila is a person who likes to take risks everywhere, but she is careless and often gets injured. It is a blessing and a miracle that she can survive until now."

"When I saw her by the river just now, I felt as if time was out of sync. I even thought that Piro was right next to me. I went back to the past..."

His tone was slightly sad, and he did not express any hatred or anger towards Sheila.

Kurapika would not be so angry at Shira because of the extermination of his clan, as she had long ago severed ties with the "Phantom Troupe", not to mention that the other party had tried to save the Kurta clan, but was just one step too late.

Germain pointed at Sheila, whose breathing was slightly rapid.

"She is a centrist who is willing to help us. She is worth winning over. You were right to bring her here. However, she looks like this now, will she be okay?" Kurapika shook his head.

"It should be fine. The fever could be caused by a wound infection. My "Healing Thumb Chain" is able to trigger and accelerate the body's healing mechanism without knowing the cause or symptoms of the disease."

"My ability has stabilized her condition. I think she will wake up tomorrow morning."

"Wait." Bisjit stood up and rummaged through his luggage, finding a towel and some medicine. "We'll take care of her for one night, and we'll see what happens after her fever goes down."

The four people present had no ill feelings towards Silla, so it was decided to take care of her.

So, that night, everyone helped to take care of Sheila, who had a fever and was unconscious, until her fever subsided in the middle of the night, and then everyone wrapped themselves in blankets and fell asleep.

However, early in the morning, everyone was awakened by a scream.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

Germann opened his eyes and cautiously lifted the blanket from his body. He subconsciously materialized a "meat saw" and a "musket" in his hands and looked towards the source of the scream.

He was often assassinated and attacked, and this set of actions had become instinctive for him, and his sleep was also very light.

The one who screamed was Sheila who had just woken up. She sat up, wrapped in a blanket, with an expression as if she had been humiliated.

Next to Sheila was Xiaodi, who was rubbing her eyes in a daze after being woken up.

She still didn't understand the situation, so she sat up, squinted her eyes, fumbled on the ground for a while, and finally found her glasses and put them on her nose.

At this time, Sheila finally recognized Xiaodi. After all, there is a difference in appearance when a person wears glasses and when he doesn't.

"Xiao, Xiaodi? Why...why are you lying next to me?" She was surprised.

Xiaodi tilted her head and looked at her, as if wondering why she was so surprised.

She began to say something that made Sheila even more confused.

"Hmm...you're awake...Germain and Kurapika's luggage fell off the cliff, and Biscuit didn't bring many blankets, so I shared a blanket with you last night..."

"Eh?"

When Shira heard this, she looked around and was stunned at the other three faces, especially Kurapika.

"Wait, wait, what the hell is going on? You guys...my brain is a bit confused."

Coincidentally, she had a special impression of the four people present.

"Phantom Troupe Killer" Germain.

The killer who killed several members of the "Phantom Troupe" who were once familiar to Sheila and had now fallen into demons.

She had been following German's movements and had mixed feelings.

Sheila can neither hate Germann nor admire him wholeheartedly. She hates the ugliness that the Phantom Troupe has become, but she also hopes that one day they can turn back.

Then there is Biscuit, "President Netero's disciple".

Now, Shira has realized the dream she shared with her childhood friends Sarasa and Paknotta - to become a professional hunter.

Now that you have become a professional hunter, it is hard not to know Biscuit.

Biscuit has a very high reputation within the Hunter Association, otherwise he would not have become one of the candidates for the new president in the original timeline.

There is no need to say much about Xiaodi, they keep in touch often.

As for Kurapika, there were all kinds of causes and effects that were as complicated as a thread. After Shira recognized him, she couldn't think of how to face him at the first moment and wanted to escape.

Too much information flooded into her mind at the same time, causing her to temporarily shut down.
