Hunter x Hunter: Kurama joins the Phantom Troupe

Chapter 160 The time of disappearing X

[This chapter is a memory]

"Hello, hello." (Sarah)

"What's wrong..." (Ace)

Five-year-old Ace got up sleepily and looked at Sarasa in front of him.

Sarasa stretched out her little hand, pulled Ace up, and pulled him to the door...

A middle-aged man with short white hair was busy doing something on the tree in front of her house, while her adoptive parents were standing under the tree handing tools to the man...

"This is..." (Ace)

Two old ropes were lowered from the tree, and then my foster father took out a piece of wood from the sundries nearby and fixed it to the ropes...

"A swing! It's something new and unique that I've never seen before!" (Sarah)

The white-haired man jumped down from the tree and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Okay, that's it. The kids have new toys. Thanks to you two for your help." (Alan)

"Nothing, come visit often." (Adoptive father)

The man then picked up the toolbox beside him and left, and the adoptive parents returned to the house. Ace stared blankly at the swing in front of him...

It wasn't until she was pushed onto the swing by Sarasa that she realized...

……

I don’t know how long it had been, but some of the children who worked as helpers in the church had returned, and the first thing they saw when they returned to the town was the swing.

The children were chattering around the swing, discussing who would play first, and Ace took the opportunity to slip away...

Ace came out from the crowd and let out a long breath.

"Really... there are so many people..." (Ace)

Ace muttered quietly, looking back at the crowd behind her, and was about to run back to the house, but the next second her feet left the ground and were carried on someone's shoulders.

"Who? Let me go!" (Ace)

Ace screamed, but the knight under her didn't care about her and carried her away...

"Even you forgot about me? I'll take you to do something fun!" (Knight)

The foster mother saw this scene through the window and burst out laughing...

"The kid next door is quite lively, he could be more cheerful than Ace..." (Adoptive mother)

Sarasa looked at her.

"Mom! I'm going to play with them!" (Sarah)

"Okay, be careful." (Adoptive mother)

Sarasa ran after him...

……

The three of them soon arrived at a familiar commercial garbage dump, where Franklin had been waiting for a long time...

Franklin looked at the knight carrying Ace and Sarasa behind them, and pursed his lips...

"I asked you to find someone to help, so why did you kidnap Ace and the others?" (Franklin)

The knight did not answer his question directly, but looked around.

"Eh? Where's Chrollo?" (Knight)

"Chrollo..." (Ace's inner voice)

Franklin pointed behind him.

"He has gone off to find the treasure. Let us start quickly." (Franklin)

The knight finally put Ace on the ground. Ace pouted and complained softly:

"You brought me here without even asking..." (Ace) [whispering]

The others don't care whether Ace agrees or not...

Ace was dragged into the "Taobao team" just like that...

But... since we're already here, it would be a shame not to look for it...

After agreeing to meet here later, they dispersed to go shopping...

"Be careful, this is Wo Jin's territory." (Franklin)

[Wo Jin: No... you guys have to come? Here?]

……

"This is..." (Ace)

Ace saw a long, flat black shell in the garbage dump, reached out, grabbed it, and then tried to pull it out...

"It's so tight..." (Ace)

Seeing that he couldn't pull it out easily, Ace pushed his feet against the ground and exerted force suddenly...

With a bang, she pulled out the "black box", but she herself unfortunately fell backwards because of excessive force, and was thrown onto the garbage mountain, and then rolled down...

Ace, with a bloody head, got up from the ground, ignored the red stain on his head, and picked up the black box.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a videotape...

Found a treasure! ! !

Ace was secretly delighted, this was a real treasure in the resource-scarce Meteor Street!

Ace's mouth curled up a little, and he jumped up and down excitedly. He hugged the videotape in his arms, and then ran towards the gathering point...

However, when she was running through a pile of garbage, she bumped into a person head-on, and the thin girl was knocked to the ground.

A shadow loomed over her, and when she raised her head and looked forward, she saw a strange face in front of her.

A boy about thirteen or fourteen years old.

It's not Wojin either...

She had seen Wo Jin before, a tall man with a head that looked like popcorn, and he was always accompanied by a little girl with pink hair...

but……

It doesn't seem to be Phinx or Feitan either...

They are very recognizable, one has a bucket head and the other has a steel wool...

"Who are you?" (Ace)

The fear of strangers could not overcome curiosity after all, so Ace asked the doubts in his heart.

The guy opposite was also staggered after being hit, his eyes were full of impatience and he was cursing.

But when he saw the videotape in Ace's arms, his eyes were full of greed.

"You didn't even apologize after bumping into someone? That's really rude." (The arrogant passerby will look embarrassed later)

"Shouldn't I give you something as compensation?" (The more arrogant you are now, the more embarrassed you will be later)

Apparently he watched the videotape...

This was something she had worked so hard to find, how could she give it away?

Ace moved back a little, hugged the videotape tighter, and shook his head instinctively.

The opponent didn't give her a chance to escape. He grabbed Ace's ankle, pulled her back, and started to snatch her.

The next second, a wooden stick flew from a distance and hit the man's forehead directly, leaving a big bump.

He cried out in pain, let go of Ace, covered his forehead, and looked in the direction where the stick came from.

Ace regained his freedom and rolled and crawled a few meters back to create some distance between him and him.

"Hey! Such a grown man bullies a little girl! Do you have any shame!" (Wo Jin)

Unexpectedly, the person who came to help was Wo Jin...

Before that person could fight back, Machi behind Wo Jin...

Quietly handed over a brick...

Wo Jin looked at the brick in his hand and fell into deep thought. He turned his head and whispered:

"Wait... this is too powerful..." (Wo Jin) [whispering]

"It's best to kill a guy like this, isn't it?" (Maggie)

"No, not really?!" (Wo Jin)

"Okay, okay, let's change to another one..." (Maggie)

As he spoke, Machi handed over another steel bar...

“This is outrageous!?” (A super embarrassed passerby)

The man looked at the increasingly outrageous "long-range weapons" (sticks, bricks, steel bars, blades...) in Wo Jin's hands, and didn't care about Ace anymore. He ran away in fear...

Before Ace recovered from the shock, a big hand stretched out from behind her and lifted her into the air like a kitten.

"That guy... a beast..." (Wo Jin)

"Being beaten like this..." (Maggie)

"Um...did you guys misunderstand something?" (Ace)

Ace awkwardly hid the video tape in his clothes and pointed to his head...

"This was caused by a fall..." (Ace)

"Fall?!" (Wo Jin)

Wo Jin resisted the urge to throw Ace away, put her on the ground, and said with a dark face:

"Hurry up, I'm in a good mood today." (Wo Jin)

Machi kicked Wo Jin hard.

"Hey, at least be gentle with girls." (Maggie)

Ace ran away at the speed of light. She didn't want to stay in this place for even a second...

Looking at Ace going away, Wo Jin suddenly remembered something and slapped his head hard.

"Fuck, videotape!" (Wo Jin)

Just as he was about to call Ace to stop, Machi kicked him again...

"Hey! Aren't you ashamed of snatching things from a five-year-old girl? Just bully Kuroro and the others..." (Machi)

……

The knight put the videotape into the projector with great anticipation, and then began to adjust the equipment.

Paknoda took out potion and bandages from a box nearby and handed them to the priest.

After taking the bandage, the priest came behind Ace. Ace sat obediently on a small stool, and his white hair had returned to its former appearance.

"Thank you, Father." (Ace)

"Ace, the priest is not old enough for you to call him grandpa." (Franklin)

"Hahaha, it's okay. (=^▽^=)" (Priest)

The priest smiled cheerfully and began to treat the wound on Ace's head.

"Ace, remember to be more careful next time. You won't grow taller if you keep looking like this." (Priest)

[It was predicted that he would be 160cm tall, the fourth shortest in the group.]

Ace lowered his head...

"Oh... I remember..." (Ace)

"I won't do this again next time..." (Ace)

At this time, the projector, which had been shooting randomly for a while, finally started working. As a series of white screen flashes passed, the picture finally stabilized.

However, after seeing the image clearly, almost all the children in the projection room cried out in pain...

"Why is it a foreign language lecture?" (Franklin)

"Super boring stuff..." (Sarah)

The knight was also very depressed at first, but he changed his mind...

"It's quite interesting to use a language that you don't understand to speak another language, isn't it?" (Xia Ke)

Comforting himself in this way, the knight sat down with Paknoda and watched the film "with great interest".

Franklin and Sarasa could no longer sit still, so they stood up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, they said:

"I really can't appreciate this. Sometimes I really admire you..." (Franklin)

"Let's go get Kuroro back, maybe he can understand!" (Sarassa)

After bandaging her head, Ace also walked outside. She really had no interest in these things...

So I missed the chance to see Chrollo...

……

[Spoof of the Brigade's mini-theater: "Choosing Clothes"]

"How about this one?" (Madge)

"No... How old is Carrie... Is it appropriate to wear a Gothic dress?" (Ace)

"What about... this?" (Maggie)

"This is even more outrageous, why is there a bell? She is the group favorite, not a pet!" (Ace)

"Sorry, I got the wrong one. This is actually for you..." (Maggie)

"Huh?!" (Ace)

"Forget it... Anyway, this punk-style skirt is even more outrageous..." (Ace)

"Um... that's for you too..." (Maggie) [whispering]

"Ah?! These... these COS costumes..." (Ace)

"That's right..." (Maggie)

"Why are they all girls with animal ears? You don't have any fetish in this area, do you? Also, do you really want to see me cosplay?" (Ace)

"Well, who told you to be white-haired, innate holy body..." (Machi)

"Is pink hair not okay..." (Ace)

"It's not like we can't try again..." (Ace)

"But there will be a fee..." (Ace)

At this moment, a voice sounded faintly from behind them...

"What are you doing?" (Knight)

"Fuck, Xiake, you won the resurrection match?!" (Ace)

"Not yet..." (Knight)

"Ace has already won the resurrection match for a whole day, and you and Kubi haven't finished yet?" (Machi)

The knight scratched his head...

"How can I put it... that thing is actually random, it may not drop even if you win..." (Knight)

"We just released a trial card..." (Knight)

"Live halfway and then die again? That's ridiculous..." (Ace)

"The dead author is really lonely in the cemetery, and he has to drag you down..." (Machi)

"I scolded the old thief for throwing the knife, which was called "Fu Jiang". When it was my turn, I immediately got a triple kill." (Maqi)

"After all, ever since the author arranged for Ace to receive the same treatment as Kate and Bakuer last time, he has been sent to the Hell by us..." (Xia Ke)

"The key is that he only plays Anxin and Bai Qi in King of Glory. Isn't this just asking for a beating..." (Ace) [whispering]

"Just play it, like a Titan drill, I can't wait to clear all four jungle areas and three lanes of soldiers on the map. If I don't have the highest economy in the game, I won't be considered to have come out..." (Machi) [whispering]

"By the way, what are you discussing?" (Knight)

Ace pointed to the various small clothes on the bed.

"According to the dead author's arrangement, Carrie will have to join the team in the future, and we are currently selecting her signature skin." (Ace)

The knight picked out those cosplay costumes.

"You mean, in the few hours since I died, Kerry has mutated? Has he grown so fast?" (Xia Ke)

"Um... that's okay..." (Ace, Machi)

The knight smiled and patted his chest confidently.

"Leave this to me. Do you two know how to dress like those guys wearing safety pants outside?" (Knight)

"For a moment..." (Ace)

"I'm speechless..." (Maggie)

"It is the truth after all." (Knight)

From a certain perspective, the knights are the ones who dress most normally in the group...

After all, the painting style is unified...

Some people in the group have really good taste in clothes...

It’s hard to describe in one word…
