Hunter x Hunter: Tonight, Germain joins the hunt

Chapter 49: Germain Masters the "Method"

"I'll pay, and you'll name the price next." Germain replied sincerely, "Please, Biscuit."

Xiaodi blinked her big eyes, put her hands behind her back, tilted her head and began to think.

"Well... I'll just forget it. I'll ask Biscuit for a massage occasionally. Maybe she'll feel embarrassed and won't ask me to pay."

"Hey, Xiaodi, you spoke your inner thoughts!"

Biscuit jumped up from the bench and pointed at Xiaodi.

"Also, I won't be 'embarrassed'. You must pay in full when the time comes!"

Xiaodi covered her mouth, as if to block all the little thoughts that might come out of here.

"It's useless. I've heard it!" Biscuit crossed her arms and was a little angry. She glared at Xiaodi and then looked at German. "Are you really going to let me set the price?"

German nodded and said, "Of course, this is what I need from you."

"Hmm..." Biscuit thought for a while, but finally sighed, "German, do you know how many of the richest people in the world are "Hunters"? "

"It seems that more than half of them are 'Hunters.'" German immediately understood what Biscuit meant, but he still continued speaking along with her words.

"This is just the data on the surface. Some "hunters" are eccentric and will not show their wealth. Do you understand? As a senior hunter, I don't need your money at all."

"I'm willing to fly over to help you because I think you're just right for me. The same goes for Xiao Di..."

While Biscuit was talking, Xiaodi interrupted.

"You are a veteran hunter, so how old are you this year?" Xiaodi asked curiously.

"Oh, well... Actually, I've been cursed so that I can't grow up. I'll always be twelve or thirteen years old."

Biscuit poked her cheeks with her two index fingers, posing like a cute girl with a smiling face.

This is a lie...

German didn't say anything, but looked at Xiaodi, who nodded repeatedly and looked confused, and asked, "Didn't you find it strange that she came to see me last night as a young girl?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Biscuit added with satisfaction, "German is right, I am a girl."

At this time, Xiaodi let out an "Eh" and looked at German in surprise.

"Although I didn't think of this aspect at first, but now that I think about it carefully, there is nothing strange about it."

"Among the children of Meteor Street, not many have awakened their thoughts at the age of twelve or thirteen, but there are some."

Only then did Germann understand why Xiaodi was not at all surprised by Biscuit's use of "Psychic Power", and he nodded in understanding.

Bisiji looked at this scene and remained silent for a while. She probably guessed that the actual situation was far from as simple and easy as they said.

It’s not that children who stay in Meteor Street are easy to awaken their "thoughts", but that children who cannot awaken their "thoughts" will face a worse living environment and it will be difficult for them to survive.

German and Xiaodi are both children who were selected after the law of the jungle, which is why they had the opportunity to grow to where they are today.

Biscuit thought for a while and told them his idea: "My 'pricing' can include Jie Ni, but more are not Jie Ni, because I don't lack Jie Ni." "German, what really attracted me here, besides yourself, is the secret you hide. If I guess correctly, although it is incredible, you should be from..."

Before Biscuit could finish his words, Xiao Di interrupted him again: "Jermain, didn't you tell Biscuit about the Dark Continent?"

"No." German pointed at Biscuit and replied, "She is the disciple of Netero, the president of the Hunter Association. If I tell her rashly, it will be difficult for her to handle this matter given her position."

"There is one more thing. Xiaodi, the matter of the Dark Continent must be kept secret from the outside world. After all, it is a 'taboo'. Now only the three of us know about it."

“If additional teammates are needed in the future, I will explain the situation to them.”

Xiaodi nodded: "I see. I thought you two were friends, and that Biscuit knew about this a long time ago, but I was the one who found out later. I didn't expect it to be the other way around."

German turned to look at Biscuit, only to find that he was looking at him with a very complicated look.

"what happened?"

"It's not a question of 'what happened', right? You actually told Xiaodi and didn't even tell me. No, no, no, now is not the time to worry about this..."

Biscuit poked his forehead with his finger, looking distressed.

"Although I had a premonition, this is really the 'Dark Continent' that the old man repeatedly warned us not to go to... What should I do with you?"

"I couldn't find any information about the 'color-changing stone' you sent me before on the 'Hunter's Special Website', and you repeatedly refused to tell me where it came from, which made me suspicious."

"If it is a product from the Six Continents, even if it is from the 'forbidden areas', there is no need for you to be so tight-lipped."

"Coupled with the subtle changes in you, I can't help but think of the Dark Continent."

"But I still can't figure out how you managed to enter the Dark Continent under the noses of the Hunter Association and the V5 Powers? And there wasn't enough time."

The adventure that Netero and his companions took was to quietly enter the "Dark Continent" without the permission of the V5 powers, but it was impossible to go back and forth within a few days.

Biscuit has been quietly following German's movements to make sure that he has never left the Six Continents for a long time.

How did he do it? Biscuit was puzzled.

"To go to the Dark Continent, generally speaking, four conditions are required." German did not answer directly, "'Permission', 'Method', 'Qualification', 'Contract'."

"In fact, I only know one of them, that is, 'method'. It is very troublesome to describe it to you and Xiaodi with words, so it is better to see it with your own eyes."

"Four days later, we will be fully prepared. You can follow me to the Dark Continent and you will understand everything."

Bisiji was stunned. Faced with this rather strange and suspicious invitation, she was in a dilemma.

Germann shouldn’t be lying, his eyes didn’t waver at all, and there was no need for him to tell a lie that could be easily exposed... "Method"?

This scary man really hides a scary secret. But, what should I do?
Should he heed Netero's warning and never go to the "Dark Continent" on his own, or should he follow his hunter's instinct and take a look at the vast and magnificent "New World"?
In the final analysis, among the four major conditions for going to the "Dark Continent", the most important one is actually "means", while "permission", "qualification" and "contract" can be put aside.

This is what is called "act first and report later". As long as remarkable results can be achieved, the remaining three conditions will be automatically fulfilled.

This is the choice before Biscuit, and it is also the choice before all hunters throughout history, and this decision will greatly determine their respective destinies.
