Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 331: Germain seems to be qualified to be Killua's guardian
Xiaodi held a piece of cake in both hands, took a small bite, and chewed for a long time before reacting. She turned her head and looked at German.

Her eyes were asking: If you don’t agree, can I continue eating?

German nodded, meaning, just continue eating, it's okay.

He turned to face Silva who suddenly asked the question, and noticed that both Silva and Zeno had gentle smiles on their faces.

"Okay. I'll take care of him the best I can."

German agreed without even giving a reason to refuse.

The reactions of the rest of the people at the table were mixed.

Zeno and Silva's smiles deepened.

Kurt quickly looked up at Germann, then lowered his head again, trying his best to hide his presence after talking nonsense, which also allowed him to avoid a lot of scolding.

He always did this in the past. He was not as dazzling as Killua and was used to being a shadow.

Ilmi stared at Germann, his wide-open eyes and expressionless expression, as if he were a vengeful spirit that suddenly appeared in the mirror, the closet or the bed.

He looked like he was going to pounce at me any second, but in the end he just held the armrests of the chair tightly with both hands and remained silent.

Kijou turned around with her skirt lifted dramatically, like a startled opera singer, and her mechanical prosthetic eyes frantically scanned Germain's entire body.

She wanted to retort subconsciously, but in the end, her red lips under the bandage opened slightly for a long time and she only said these two words weakly.

"No, no! How can you leave Killua to outsiders?"

She could only point this out because both she and Illumi realized at this moment that German met many of the requirements to be Killua's guardian.

No matter how harsh they are, they cannot deny these.

Shiba changed from a solemn sitting posture leaning against the back of the chair to a relaxed posture with his body leaning forward and fingers crossed, also to shorten the straight-line distance between him and Germain, showing a sense of closeness in his actions.

"President Netero is also an outsider of the Zoldyck family, but can this erase the decades-long friendship between him and our family?"

"And this friendship started when Great-grandfather Maha and President Netero got to know each other through fighting. Later, Grandfather Jager even traveled with President Netero for a period of time."

"I think that our friendship with Germain can also start from my father and me and develop here with Killua. There is nothing wrong with that. Germain is a man who can be trusted."

Zeno laughed dryly a few times, revealing a nostalgic look.

"Come to think of it, not long after I was born, I was held by President Netero. Together with Silva who came later, four generations of our family are actually familiar with President Netero."

"If Killua has children in the future, maybe we can continue this family relationship."

Ji Qiu tightly grasped the Western fan with fancy lace in both hands, leaning forward with his upper body, but showing an aggressive attitude.

"How can they be the same?! President Netero is the number one Nen user in the six continents..."

She choked up when she said this, because she remembered that after Zeno and Silva returned from the Chimera Ant War, they mentioned that the title of "the number one mind user in the six continents" had changed hands.

And the successor happened to be German in front of him.

She couldn't see the trick, but she thought that Zeno and Silva would not deceive her about such things, not to mention that Maha also acquiesced to it.

So Kijo quickly changed his statement and tried to attack German from another direction.

"President Netero is the president of the Hunter Association. He knows top hunters, has experience and resources..."

Suddenly, Ji Qiu was speechless again.

No matter how ignorant she was, as she was in the circle of Psychic users, she had still received some information about German.

Even her mechanical prosthetic eye is connected to the Internet, so she can directly access information from intelligence websites. It is quite smart and advanced.

Germain is now one of the "Twelve Branches of the Association". It is no exaggeration to say that he has met Nen users on every continent of the six continents, and his own experience and resources are also quite rich. In this way, isn't Germain now a young "Netero"?

Maybe he could become the president of the Hunter Association in the future. After all, he is only in his twenties and not yet thirty...

Thinking about it carefully, Ji Qiu was a little moved, which made her feel even more tormented. However, she finally turned around stubbornly and looked at her eldest son.

"Ilmi, please say something!"

Ilmi still raised his eyebrows, with neither anger nor resentment, and his face always looked calm.

After hearing his mother's words, his black pupils finally moved. He glanced down and then raised his eyes again.

"I am a rational person who is willing to consider the gains and losses of reality. Germain, if it is you who takes care of my brother, I actually have nothing to complain about."

"However, you might have misled my brother... He is going to be the number one killer of the Zoldyck family. His purpose is to complete his missions cold-bloodedly and ruthlessly. You will inject some emotions into him that he shouldn't have."

"Yeah!"

Ji Qiu clapped the Western fan on the palm of his left hand and nodded repeatedly, agreeing with his eldest son's point of view.

In fact, there is another problem that mother and son are worried about that cannot be mentioned in this occasion, and that is Alluka.

Illumi pierced Killua's forehead with the "Thought and Thought Needle", causing him to forget Alluka's existence.

However, as long as Killua learns the "ability of mind" and continues to break through his limits, one day it will be possible to force out his "mind and mind needles" and remember everything.

At that time, Killua would definitely not be willing to let Alluka be locked in a heavily sealed solitary room, or cage.

Of course, as long as his father doesn't allow it, Killua will definitely not be able to contact the imprisoned Alluka.

In this way, all firepower will be attracted to Ilmi alone.

Although Illumi firmly believes that the person Killua loves most is him, his eldest brother, it is possible that Killua will attack his most beloved person for the sake of Alluka, who is ranked second.

In order to take revenge on him and defeat him, Killua might seek help from German... This would be troublesome because German could really beat him.

At this moment, Killua also vaguely sensed that the atmosphere on the scene seemed different from what he had imagined.

As for his father's suggestion of asking German to take care of him, Killua himself felt that it was unnecessary as he was not a child anymore (from his point of view).

However, if a guardian is necessary, the best candidate among the people present is indeed German.

But he felt that such a proposal would soon be refuted by his mother and Ilmi.

As a result, he saw his mother stop talking in the middle of her words several times and then had to seek Ilmi's help.

After holding it in for a long time, Ilmi actually basically agreed with German, but he only put forward a single dry reason to oppose it.

Is this still the mother who chatters all the time, and the Ilmi who sneered and said all kinds of sarcastic words to laugh at his childishness?
Why are they all silent?

Killua couldn't help but think of a possibility, and he looked in the direction of Germain.

Perhaps, for some reason that I don't understand yet, German has a heavier weight in the hearts of grandfather, father, mother and Ilmi.

I may have underestimated Germain.

Could it be that, if everything goes well, not only will Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio be safe, but I will also be able to leave with them and regain my freedom?

Kurapika has already sat back in his seat, closed his eyes and rested. He could probably imagine what would happen next.

Gon and Leorio looked at each other, somewhat confused about the strange and rapidly changing situation before them.
