Hunter: You Call This Food Hunter?

Chapter 088 Exaggerated Listening

Leorio sat on the bus stop and said to himself: "I still think it's safer to take the bus, but it's a pity that everyone has to go their own way here.

At this time, there was a burst of discussion behind him.

"Hey, did you hear that? None of the buses to Saba reach their destination."

"Is it really a trap? These newbies are really easy to trick. I guess this level can trick a lot of people.

Leorio looked around for a while, picked up his suitcase and caught up with Gon and others.

While running, he shouted: "Wait, wait for me! I can't help it, seeing that you are alone, I'd better go with you."

"Hahahaha! I am such a kind person!"

When Eaton saw him catching up, he joked: "I didn't expect you would rather believe the words of the strangers on the platform than we, our friends who have been through the storm together.

Leorio was shocked. He didn't expect that Eaton could hear the discussion on the platform from such a distance.

It seems that Eaton, the Hunter, does have something special about him.

But he retorted: "I'm afraid that Kurapika and Gon will be too lonely if they go alone."

"Also, the two of us who have gone through the storm together are me and them. It has nothing to do with you, the guy hiding in the boat."

Eaton shrugged his shoulders, his nonchalant look making Leorio feel like he had punched cotton.

A group of four people headed towards the huge cedar tree in the distance.

While walking through a dilapidated and dirty alley, Leorio realized something was wrong.

"This place makes me feel uncomfortable all over. Why can't I see even half a person?"

"No," Gon retorted, "There are a lot of people here."

Kurapika agreed: "Well, everyone should be more careful."

Leorio's head was full of questions. He looked around but couldn't find a single figure.

"No, how do you know there are many people around?"

Kurapika prompted: "Didn't you hear the sound of people breathing around here?"

Gon added: "There was also the rustling sound of clothes rubbing together. They thought they were hiding well, but in fact I had noticed it a long time ago.

"Not at all. How did you all hear that?"

Leorio found it incredible. He always felt that he was the only normal person in the team.

The other three have ridiculously exaggerated hearing abilities.

The person hiding in the dark heard what Gon and Kurapika said and knew that he and others had been discovered, so he walked out of the doors on both sides of the alley.

The leader was an old woman with a cane in her hand and a string of rosary beads around her neck.

What is worth mentioning is that this old woman has two teeth sticking out from the corners of her mouth like a walrus.

However, her two teeth are flat at the ends, not as pointed and long as the walrus.

As for the others, they all wore masks and stood behind the old lady, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

The old lady didn't say anything after she came out, she just looked at Gon and the others quietly.

Gon, on the other hand, remained unchanged in response to all changes and also did not open his mouth.

The scene fell into silence for a while.

In the end, it was the old lady who spoke first.

She said slowly: "Flame Challenger..."

"Quick question, quick answer, choose one of the two to start!"

In the second half of the sentence, the old lady suddenly increased her voice and widened her squinted eyes, startling the three people except Eaton.

The applause of the people behind the old lady brought Gon and the three of them back to their senses, and they all felt ashamed.

With so many people surrounding them, they thought they were going to start a fight.

Unexpectedly, the result turned out to be Wen Dou.

The old lady said: "If you want to go to the big cedar tree on the mountain, you will never get there unless you pass here.

"Other roads leading to the mountain are like a maze, and there are ferocious beasts that eat people on the mountain."

"I only ask one question, and you have five seconds to think about it. If you get the answer wrong, you will fail this year's Hunter exam.

Kurapika complained: "It turns out that this is also one of the levels tested by Hunter."

The old lady added: "You can only answer one or two. Other than that, any other vague answers are considered wrong."

Leorio suddenly realized a problem.

"Hey, wait a minute. You mean we have to answer a question together?"

Leorio pointed at Kurapika and said: "If this guy gets the answer wrong, won't I be implicated and eliminated?"

"It's impossible for this to happen," Kurapika retorted, "but the probability of you getting us eliminated is ridiculously high."

Upon hearing this, Leorio reached out and wrapped his arms around Kurapika's neck and pressed down, intending to teach him a lesson.

At this time, Gon said: "This is simple, as long as one of the three of us knows the answer.

When the old lady heard this, she looked at them in surprise.

It's not that he was surprised by Gon's idea, but that they said "the three of us" even though there were four of them.

But this had nothing to do with the test, and the old lady didn't ask any more questions.

"Hey, those in front of you, please hurry up?" An impatient voice suddenly came from behind Gon and others.

Everyone looked back and saw that it was a bitch with dead fish eyes and a big nose.

The man suggested: "How about I answer it first?"

"Then I'll let you answer it first." Leorio said, "This way you can also understand the direction of the question first."

Gon but Kurapika doesn't have any objections either.

"Thanks."

The man thanked him, but said in his heart: 'You bunch of fools, I've set some traps on the road ahead waiting for you.

However, whether he can pass or not is still a question.

Seeing that the extra was ready, the old lady said: "Listen carefully. Your mother and your girlfriend were caught by bad guys, but you can only save one person."

【1】Mother; 【2】Girlfriend. Which one will you save?"

Eaton looked on in the background amused.

This kind of question is like asking who to save first if your girlfriend and mother fall into the water at the same time. There is no right answer at all.

However, the man in charge of the role decisively chose [1].

The old lady asked: "Why?"

The little man explained: "Of course it's because I only have one mother. As for my girlfriend, I can just find another one."

The old lady discussed it with the people behind her and gave the pass to the little man.

When the little man left, he greeted Gon and others arrogantly.

As everyone knows, although the old lady let him pass, she didn't say that he was taking the right path.

Leorio thought about how he would answer this question.

But after thinking for a long time, he didn't know how to choose, or he didn't want to choose between these two options.

Finally, he shouted angrily: "Do you think I'm an idiot? There's no such thing as an idiot in the world, you bastard!"

"What's the right answer for a question that varies from person to person? None of you referees are decent!"

"I'm not going to play anymore, I'm going to take another path!"

"It's too late," the old lady said. "If you give up answering the questions, you will lose your qualifications for the exam and will not be able to become a Hunter."

Kurapika was thoughtful and called out to Leorio who was about to leave.

"Lerio."

"What? Do you still want to continue answering such ridiculous questions?"

The old lady realized that Kurapika seemed to have understood the meaning of the question, and quickly interrupted: "Stop! Don't talk to each other anymore."

"From now on, as long as you say one more word, you will be immediately disqualified from taking the exam."

"Now please listen to the question. Your son and daughter have been kidnapped. You can only save one of them. Will you save the [first] son ​​(bada) and the [second] daughter?"

"five."

"Four.

"="

Without saying a word, Leorio silently walked aside and picked up a wooden stick.

He thought to himself: ‘You damn old lady is addicted to playing, right? She’s even counting down for me. Then your life span is only the few seconds you count down. "

"Crack!"

It was the sound of a stick breaking.

It can be seen that Leorio did not hold back at all with this attack.

Fortunately, Kurapika used the double wooden swords he carried to block Leorio's attack at the critical moment.

Otherwise the old lady would have died on the spot.

The old lady is also someone who has experienced strong winds and waves. She said calmly: "Ding, it's time."

Leorio ignored it and asked Kurapika: "Why are you stopping me?"

"Lerio, calm down."

"No, I can't calm down! Let me cut off that damn old woman's head and bring it to the examination venue to ask the examiners what rubbish questions these are!"

"We are already qualified, are you going to ruin it?"

"What?!"

Leorio was stunned and didn't realize what Kurapika meant.

Kurapika explained for him: "Silence, this is the correct answer to this question."

"There is no correct answer to a question like this, and everyone's answer is different. So the correct answer is definitely not [one] or [two]."

"But the reviewer said that we can only answer [one] or [two]. In other words, the correct answer is outside the options."

"Only silence is right."

Although Leorio thinks Kurapika's words make sense, he still has a question: "But the person just now has passed."

At this time, Eaton reminded quietly: "You haven't reacted yet? It doesn't mean that the answer is correct. Did you hear the judge say that he answered it correctly?"

Kurapika nodded and said: "I just heard the man's wailing in the distance. He probably encountered a wild beast."

"So, that's not the right path."

The old woman said: "That's right. The right path is here."

He directed the people behind him to open a door on the side and pointed to the passage behind the door: "This is the road to the top. It will take about two hours to get there."

Leorio was silent for a moment, bowed slightly to the old lady and said, "Grandma, I'm sorry. I was rude to you just now."

"No need to apologize." The old lady waved her hand and said, "I just want to meet talents like you to be a judge. Work hard and work hard to become a good Hunter."

"..."

"Phew, I still can't think of it!" Gon suddenly said, "I can't answer you.

Leorio and Kurapika were stunned and laughed randomly.

"Are you still thinking about it? Don't think about it!"

Gon asked: "Huh? Why?"

Leorio said: "Ask why, the quiz game is over."

"I know this."

Gon nodded, and then said seriously: "But. If one day, when only one of the two relatives can be saved, what should I do?"

"I know that no matter which one I choose, it's not the right answer. But there may come a time when I have to make a choice."

Gon's words touched both Leorio and Kurapika.

The old lady looked at the little guy who hadn't said a few words from the beginning to now in surprise.

Unexpectedly, he was the one who saw the most clearly.

I thought: ‘Yes, this is the true meaning of this question. Anticipate as many cruel possibilities as possible.

'Because when something happens

When the time comes, reality will not give you any warning. You cannot place your hopes on the mercy of others. '

'One day in the future, you will definitely embark on a road of separation. ’

"If you can't make a choice, then try to become stronger.

Eaton took two steps forward, reached out and rubbed Gon's head.

Not to mention, although Gon's hairstyle looks like a prickly prickly hair, it's actually quite comfortable to rub.

"When you are strong enough to save two relatives at the same time, or even so strong that no one dares to do anything to your relatives, you don't need to make such a choice.

Gon and Kurapika were thoughtful after listening.

Leorio curled his lips and said: "Tsk, that sounds nice. I don't believe you can do it.

The old lady had already recognized Eaton when he opened his mouth.

As a judge employed by the Hunter Association, how could she not know Eaton, one of the five most powerful people in the world?

What's more, Eaton barely concealed his appearance, so it was normal for him to be recognized.

I just don't know why Eaton is here.

But she didn't intend to ask.

After living at such an old age, the old lady knows that she should not ask more questions.

However, she still said one more thing: "If it's this person, maybe it's really possible to do it.

Upon hearing this, Leorio looked at Eaton suspiciously and asked: "So, what is your identity? Why do you sound so extraordinary and powerful?"

Eaton smiled and said, "Didn't I say it before? It's more interesting to wait for you to discover this kind of thing yourself.

"My identity is not a secret. If you can eventually become a Hunter, you can find my information on the official website of the Hunter Association."

"If you don't tell me, don't tell me. I don't even know about it." Leorio said dissatisfied, "Gon, Kurapika, let's go and leave this Riddler alone."
