Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 207 "Kim Fulish wants to ask Germain to help"

"Dong Fulishi probably hasn't been back here for a long time." Jin flicked the flashlight and observed the interior of the temporary residence. "There is absolutely no sign that anyone lives here."

"If I saw Don Fulisi here, I would find him quite scary," said Biscuit.

Jin turned back curiously and asked, "Why?"

"We still can't be sure whether Dong Fulisi is alive or dead, right?" Biscuit spread his hands. "If he is dead, then he will be a monster that we must face if he appears here."

Jin fell silent. He understood what Biscuit meant. A person like Dong Fulishi who could wander around the Dark Continent alone must be incredibly powerful.

If such a character were to be killed by something, then transformed into some kind of monster, and then encounter the four of them... the consequences would be disastrous.

Such a Dong Fu Li Shi is a "disaster" in itself, or even more terrifying than a "disaster".

"Now that I think about it, I'm a little confused." Jin scratched his face with his fingers in distress. "I want to see him, but I don't want to see him anymore. It's really troublesome."

At this time, German, who could no longer bear the dust in the room, said to Xiaodi: "Xiaodi, use your "bulgy fish" to clean up here, can you?"

"Ah." Xiaodi blinked, "Yeah, then you guys go out, I'll use the "Puffy Eye Fish" to clean up here."

The other three walked out of the stone pillar residence and stood outside the door, watching Xiaodi wearing a gas mask unlocked with a "Freedom Card" and holding a "Bulky Eye Fish" to continuously suck away dust and debris.

"It's incredible." Biscuit pulled Germanman's black robe, "Can you imagine before this? Xiaodi's "bulgy fish" is actually doing the work of a vacuum cleaner."

Germain thought back.

Indeed, what Xiaodi had sucked away with the "bulgy-eyed fish" before were basically corpses and utensils. In short, all kinds of mess were stuffed into the space of the "bulgy-eyed fish".

This time she used the "bulgy fish" to suck up the dust obediently, which made both of them a little uncomfortable.

Finally, the stone pillar room was cleaned.

Everyone walked back into the room, and Jin raised his hand to lift the stone door and closed it back to its original position, but not completely. He left a gap for ventilation.

At this time, darkness engulfed most of the room. Only a little moonlight shining through the gaps in the wall and the flashlights of everyone could illuminate a small area.

Xiaodi took out the silver briefcase and used the "Freedom Card" in the transparent card box to unlock a lamp the size of a floor fan and placed it in the center.

After turning on the switch, light instantly filled most of the room.

"Then let's eat something and have a good rest." Germann could only see the dark sky through the gap in the wall. "There are four of us. We can take turns to keep watch."

Biscuit laid a carpet under his feet before sitting down with Xiaodi.

"Finally I can take a break again... Really, ever since I started working with German, I always feel like I'm at work." Biscuit complained.

German and Kim were not so particular. They just sat on the ground. Anyway, Xiaodi's "bulgy fish" should have sucked up all the dust and spit it out outside.

They also had a sumptuous dinner, so much so that Bisiji touched his belly after the meal and silently thanked Menqi and Buhala for their dedication.

After eating and drinking, sleepiness quickly comes over you.

They unsealed the "Freedom Card Sleeping Bag" and got in, but only Biscuit and Xiaodi actually closed their eyes and went to sleep, while German and Jin just lay in the sleeping bag.

German was the first to take the night watch, then it was Jin's turn, then Biscuit, and finally Xiaodi. Biscuit and Xiaodi could rest assured and take a nap first.

Jin went outside to relieve himself and came back a while later. He dimmed the light of the lamppost and then crawled back into his sleeping bag.

German and his sleeping bag were moved to the side of the entrance to the stone pillar room. By simply looking sideways, he could see what was happening outside through the gap that never closed.

"Are you still not asleep?" He sat against the stone wall and noticed that Jin was also sitting against the wall not far away with his eyes open.

Jin looked at Germann and said, "To be honest, you may not believe it... I am very excited now and can't sleep. I fell asleep as soon as I lay down last night."

"Why can't you sleep?" German glanced at Biscuit and Xiaodi and deliberately lowered his voice.

Jin also lowered his voice and said, "It's simple, because I really came to the Dark Continent."

He pointed at Germann and said, "Although there is a lot of indirect evidence, and although Bisjid, Xiaodi, Menqi, and Buhala endorse you, in the end, seeing is believing..."

Jin put his hands on the back of his head, looked up, and looked at the sky through the gap in the wall. Unfortunately, he couldn't see the moon from this angle: "I'm glad that you are not playing tricks."

It was only after he actually saw the stone tablets left behind by the Saheleta United States, the unforgeable "ancient labyrinth city", "gold and silver ingots", and "the Mobius strip mark and temporary residence left behind by Don Fulis" that he became convinced that this was indeed the Dark Continent.

This feeling of reality made his fingers tremble until just now, and he could only press them with his head to hide the trembling of excitement.

"Germain," he said after a while, "Actually, 'herb that cures all diseases' is not my real goal."

After saying this, King Kong smiled and said, "Of course, I will try my best to get it. After all, I have to report to the old man (President Netero)..."

"So what is your real goal?" German was a little curious.

"It is a tall tower standing at the core of the "Ancient Labyrinth City."

King looked at Germain, his eyes sparkling.

"Dong Fulisi mentioned it in the "New World Journey: East Chapter Fragment". He once climbed it, but found nothing. Even after the book was completed, he still didn't figure out what the tower was used for." "If I were to talk about the entire ruins of the "Ancient Labyrinth City", the one I'm most interested in is definitely this tower that even Dong Fulisi couldn't find many clues about."

"It is at the core of the core and must play some role, but its purpose has never been discovered."

"If I can uncover the truth about that tower, then I will probably know who built the "Ancient Labyrinth City" and why it was built, right?"

German remembered the sketch of the "Ancient Labyrinth City" drawn by Dong Fulishi in the incomplete version, and he had an impression of it.

Among the numerous cubic stone pillars and reed-like plants, there is a tall tower that stands out from the crowd and is quite conspicuous.

“It’s definitely worth checking.”

"Really?" Jin couldn't help but raise his voice. The next moment he looked at Biscuit and Xiaodi, and saw that they were still sleeping in their sleeping bags and were not woken up, so he lowered his voice again, "It's very interesting, right, Germain?"

"It is very interesting," replied Germain.

Jin stared at German for a while, then smiled: "You know what? I have said these words to many of my close friends for more than 30 years."

“However, some of them think that Journey to the New World: East is just a novelist’s fantasy about the Dark Continent.”

"Another group of people were skeptical, but they thought it was impossible for me to meet all the conditions, travel across the ocean, reach the Dark Continent, and explore the truth."

"They felt sorry for me. I had such a strong desire to learn about this place, but I was destined to never find the truth in this lifetime."

"But I don't need this kind of regret and pity. Leiza, Duen, Liszt, Yida and Elena can't understand my obsession with the Dark Continent."

"They are willing to support me silently behind my back, but they can never fully understand me."

King looked at German and said, "So, after learning about you guys, after actually meeting you guys, I was relieved, to be honest."

"I am indeed not the only fool or lunatic in the world."

"I envy you for having such a "Nen ability" that was born just for exploring this place."

"At the same time, I sincerely thank you for your "Nen ability"... We are undoubtedly fellow travelers."

"You exaggerate," said German.

"I don't think it's an exaggeration." Jin sat up straight and said seriously, "In this life, it is actually very difficult to meet like-minded people who truly understand my feelings."

"By the way, Germain, I have something to ask of you."

"What's the matter?" German saw that Jin had a serious expression on his face.

"After obtaining the 'Herb of All Diseases', I decided to stay in the Dark Continent." Jin took off the tattered hat on his head, revealing his short hair, "I will not return with you."

German was slightly surprised for a moment, but soon understood.

"Look." Jin smiled, "If it were you, you would understand why I did this. If it were someone else, they would immediately have all kinds of doubts and try to stop me."

"To put it simply, I stay here for both selfish and public reasons. Selfishly, of course, it's because I finally made it to the Dark Continent, and I really don't want to go back. I just want to spend the rest of my life in this place."

"Public heart..." Jin pointed at Germain again, "Your 'Transmission Lantern' can only bring four people at a time, which is too inefficient."

"You'll need more helpers in the Dark Continent. In this regard, you should keep me, and then you can bring a new trio with you."

"In this way, your helpers in the Dark Continent will increase from three to four, and so on."

"If I stay here, I can provide you with shelter, intelligence, etc., and you can provide me with constant support. This is a win-win situation for us."

German thought about it for a while, and he had to admit that he was tempted by Jin's proposal.

He had had similar ideas a long time ago, but he couldn't force Biscuit or Xiaodi to stay here.

Now, Jin is willing to stay, this may be a brand new opportunity...

"But..." Germain asked, "What about Greed Island? What about your son?"

"Haha..." Jin laughed softly, "It doesn't really matter whether Greed Island has me or not. Not to mention, I've already given you my shares. You can't just sit there and do nothing, right?"

"So you've been plotting against me since then."

"I guess so... Didn't I mention this before? Each letter of 'Greed Island' is the first letter of one of our members' names. You should do the same in the future."

"I thought about it for a long time and decided that maybe there's no need to force your initials in there... You see, our names all start with G."

"One 'G' leaves and another 'G' takes over. Isn't that great?"

"As for my son Xiaojie..." Jin seemed to be trying hard to recall his son's appearance, but unfortunately his memory was a little fuzzy. "If you meet him, tell him..."

"Xiao Jie, if you really want to meet this incompetent father of mine, come to the Dark Continent to find me."
