Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 37 Angel's Automatic Notes

"Take your time to think it over."

Germain looked at the pocket watch he had taken from his hunter's robe.

"I still have things to take care of, so I'll leave now, but I will stay in Youkexin City for two or three days, and you also have my contact information."

"Where are you going?" Xiaodi asked curiously.

"I don't want to talk about it." German got up from the swivel chair in the Internet cafe, took back the hunter license, and turned off the computer. "Contact me when you have made a decision."

Xiaodi had already closed her eyes, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked like she was deep in thought. She didn't listen to what Germain said at all.

Germain decided not to disturb her and left quietly.

At nine o'clock in the evening, at an auction house.

The walls here are burgundy, the crystal chandeliers are dimly glowing, the floor is clean and tidy, and the receptionist is even more enthusiastic towards German.

He spent a whole afternoon walking around half of Youkexin City, comparing three auction houses exclusively for hunters, and finally settled on one that he was more satisfied with.

The appraiser of this family, who was originally a hunter, noticed at first sight that something was wrong with the "One-Eye of the Lord of Crows". He believed that it was wrapped in ominous "thoughts" and would bring misfortune to the holder.

After he put on a rubber glove and actually touched the baseball-sized eyeball, he placed it back into the solution in the glass jar without touching it any further.

"Sir, I have two suggestions." The appraiser took off his rubber gloves. "Do you want to go the safe way of auctioning, or do you want to resell it quickly to cash in?"

Germann did not rush to make a decision, but asked, "Tell me the pros and cons of both."

The appraiser nodded and answered as briefly as possible.

"If you go with the auction route, the advantages are that it is safe and stable, and there are a large number of bidders, so it is easy to get a high price. The disadvantage is that you have to go through the entire commission auction process before you can settle the price and fees."

"How long will it take?" German asked.

"It will take at least half a month at the earliest," the appraiser answered truthfully. "Sometimes things don't go smoothly, so it's normal to take one or two months."

Germain couldn't wait for one or two months, so he asked, "What about the second one?"

"If it is a quick resale, it is actually introduced to several private clients who are interested in this aspect. The advantage is that the target is clear and the settlement is fast. The disadvantage is that the asking price depends entirely on the client's preference."

"How soon can this be settled?"

"There are several customers in Youkexin City right now," the appraiser said. "If they like the product at first sight, it's not uncommon for them to pay on the spot."

After some consideration, German decided to go the route of quick resale first.

"Please help me contact my clients in Youkexin City."

"Okay, please wait."

The appraiser took out his mobile phone, took pictures of the eyeball from various angles, sent them out, and then made a call.

After a boring conversation, the appraiser put down his phone and said, "Someone from the Nosra family will come over to take a look. Please wait."

"The Nosra family is..."

The appraiser looked up in surprise. He didn't expect that Germain didn't know about the famous Nosra family.

In order to prevent Germann from offending the other party unknowingly, he said a few more words.

"It's a gangster family that's been in the limelight recently. They just happened to pass through Youkexin City and also happened to ask for the eyes of wild beasts, magical beasts, and rare beasts."

"I heard that the divination of the patriarch's daughter is extremely accurate. Maybe it's some kind of "psychic ability"? Even the 'Ten Old Men' trust the divination of the daughter of the Nosra family." "The patriarch, relying on his daughter's divination and the trust of the 'Ten Old Men', has gradually expanded the influence of the Nosra family."

"Nosra family", "daughter", "divination"...it should be her, right?

German felt relieved and nodded.

At ten o'clock in the evening, members of the Nosra family finally arrived.

Surrounded by a dozen black-clad bodyguards was a middle-aged man and a girl with long blue hair who was acting coquettishly towards the middle-aged man.

The appraiser led them to sit on the sofa and showed them the "One Eye of the Lord of Crows" soaked in liquid in a glass jar.

The head of the Nost family, Light, pursed his lips and turned to look at his bodyguard Dazonie.

Dazonie immediately understood, walked forward to pick up the glass jar, confirmed it, then quickly put it back on the table and bowed to Wright.

"Boss, there is indeed a strong 'curse' on the eyeball."

Wright's brows, which had been frowned seriously, relaxed noticeably.

However, her daughter Nyon next to her pouted.

"This isn't a human eye... I prefer human organs. It would be perfect if it were the "Fiery Red Eyes of the Kuruta Clan."

She put her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction.

"Nion, there's nothing we can do about it." Light consoled her, "There are very few 'Fire Eyes' in circulation on the market. I heard that most of them have been bought by the fourth prince of the Kajin royal family."

Nion thought about it, then sighed deeply: "Dad, I know, I'm not a child anymore, how can our family compete with the prince in terms of financial strength..."

"Well, I'm glad you understand. But this year, as your birthday gift, I will definitely prepare a rare human organ, which you can put in the collection room."

"Really? That's great! Thank you, Dad, I love you the most!" Nion cheered.

Wright was also infected by his daughter's joy and laughed.

Germann paid no attention to the indescribable conversation taking place before him.

He was more concerned about how many rings he could sell his "One Eye of the Lord of Crows" for.

At this time, Wright's attention returned to the eyeball on the table.

He looked at her for a while, and didn't seem to care about Germain's attitude. Instead, he asked Dazonie directly in a low voice.

"Nion's divination poem points to this eyeball. Are you sure?"

It turns out that the Nosra family's passage through Youksin City was not accidental, but because after Nion used the "Angel's Automatic Notebook" to predict the future for Light, Light made a sudden decision to come here.

Nion's "special telepathic ability" can implicitly predict other people's future within a month and present it in the form of poetry.

"Yes." Dazonie nodded and lowered his voice. "'The place where treasures gather' should refer to Youkexin City, and 'the pupil of the terrifying beast' is probably this eyeball."

Wright pondered for a while and said, "So, as long as I spend a lot of money and 'water more blood' to buy this eyeball, the 'flower in the palm' will not wither, right?"

Dazonie glanced at Nion, who was still immersed in joy, and nodded, "That should be the case."

Wright stared at the eyeball for a while and finally made a decision.

He looked at Germain and said, "I am willing to pay 100 million ringgits to buy it. Of course, I will also pay the other agency fees."
