Phantom Tours

Ah Shou originally thought that he had used up all the scares in his life, and when he could calmly face no matter what he encountered next, the magnificent building in front of him gave him another heavy blow.

"This name... this name." What made him tangled up was the extremely conspicuous and shiny large characters inlaid on the body of the building—Earth Traveling Alliance Group Co., Ltd., "Is it really okay to choose such a name? Will no one suspect or secretly investigate your identities?"

"Of course there will be, but," Xiaoyue, who was the guest tour guide, glanced at him coldly and mercilessly, and replied word by word, "Isn't it a very simple thing to make them disappear?"

Seeing the stiff hands and feet of the curious little animal before, Xiaoyue couldn't help laughing out loud: "I'm lying to you, you're so timid, you'll take it seriously."

"But you wiped out the entire Kurapika family, didn't you?" Ah Shou once again recalled the look on that person's face when he mentioned this matter, sadness, remorse, uneasiness, and guilt could not be found in those dark eyes I realized, "You can do this just because you don't know each other, so in order to protect your own interests and safety, it's not unbelievable for you to act in silence!"

"Eh? Who said..." Xiaoyue opened her mouth to refute, but was stopped by her companions.

"Shut up, Xiaoyue." The handsome little man with long hair tied back reminded her, "He is neither a member of the regiment nor one of the 'harmless' employees in the company. He explained. Also, given that his level of secrecy is too low now, the leader told him that he must be accompanied by someone, and that he should not be allowed to wander around alone."

"Can't you take it? I'm in charge of the website now, and I don't have time to take care of the children." Xiaoyue was already very dissatisfied with returning to her nine-to-five work life, and no one could squeeze her anymore. private time!

"I can't do it either. Recently, the head of the group has always been lazy, and all the things that were originally his responsibility are now pushed to me."

What should I do then?The two looked at each other, and suddenly thought of an idler.

"That's it, so I'm sorry to bother you. Anyway, you have had experience raising children once, and now you are free again, please please." Xiaoyue clasped her hands together and begged Mu Mu, and Shen Shen, who felt embarrassed, simply hid outside the door.

Ah Shou looked at this man named Mu Mu, his half-length black hair was messily scattered, and a few strands hung on his forehead, blocking his eyes.Uh, take a closer look, his eyes seem to be injured, covered by a layer of gauze, and since he came in, he hasn't heard a word from this person, no wonder his name is Wood.

I don’t know how they communicated, anyway, after a while, I heard Xiaoyue cheering and rushing to the door, took two steps and then turned around to warn him: “Shou, be obedient, don’t think that the wood can’t be seen because you can’t see it.” Do bad things secretly. Otherwise, you will fall into the hands of spiders, and don't expect anyone to save you."

Eh, save him?Could it be that Mr. Luo, who looks very similar to Kuroro, didn't pass by by chance, but made a special trip to save him?impossible?Is that person so kind?

When he was lost in thought, a hand patted his shoulder.A Shou came back to his senses with a jolt, and saw a notebook in front of him, which read: A Shou, hello, my name is Mu Mu.If you have anything, please tell me directly, and I can communicate with you with a pen.It's safe here, please stay at ease.

What is safe?How safe is it to live with you fellows who are as ferocious as spiders!

However, the unexpectedly simple and relaxed cohabitation life is not what Ah Shou imagined. If he didn't need a log to follow him wherever he went, he wouldn't even feel that his personal freedom was restricted.The reason for this illusion is probably because that person... is really gentle.

After a few days, Mu Mu had already told him everything he could tell him, including that they were from the same COS regiment, they crossed over to Meteor Street ten years ago, the confrontation and cooperation between the regiment leader Luo Yinuo and the Phantom Troupe, and his past experience. The "harmless" category of employees heard from other populations was different from his.

"Since I am an 'enemy' to the brigade, why do you want to save me?" Ah Shou couldn't think of anything that was valued about him. He traveled after death, and this way is not available to the brigade. Nothing to learn from.

"Ha, that's Kuroro's nonsense, Xiaobai told us all about what you did during the exam, except for a little change in the plot, you didn't do anything that would actually harm the brigade. "The pen in Mu Mu's hand moved quickly.

"But I do regard Kurapika as a friend, and I am ready to help him, so is that okay?"

"Of course that kind of thing is not allowed, so Xiaobai took you away as quickly as possible, as long as you sign a confidentiality contract before the brigade finds out, and give them an explanation. But I didn't expect this time Hisoka moved a step faster, if Xiaobai hadn't called the group leader in advance, we would have given up on you. You know, we can't fall out with the brigade because of you."

Ah Shou's eyes turned into circles like mosquito coils: "The relationship between you and the brigade is so complicated, I didn't understand it. But, according to what you mean, I can be saved. Besides the head of the brigade, I should also thank Xiaobai Sir, is it?"

"Well, that's right. Xiaobai has a weird temper. He can save your life by seeing you pleasing to the eye, but he will lose interest even if you die in front of his eyes."

Ah Shou recalled that guy's performance during the exam and later, and nodded with deep sympathy, what he said was so right.

At this time, a knock on the door interrupted the conversation between the two, Ah Shou opened the door, and standing outside was the short young man named Shen Chen.

"Wood, do you want to see Kurapika? They should see Qi Ya soon." Shen Chen's words were so explosive that Ah Shou couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north on the spot, "Ah Shou can also Come together, but remember, don't say what you shouldn't say."

As if he was worried that Ah Shou didn’t understand the seriousness of the matter, he repeatedly urged: “At that time, in order to eliminate the brigade’s intention to kill you, the contract that the group leader made with you was different from other people’s. This situation is similar to the absolute restriction of immediate death once violated, so you have to be careful."

But it's obviously not what Ah Shou was struggling with: "You, you...why do you sound so familiar when you mention Kurapika!"

But it wasn't until he stood in front of the gate of the underworld where Kuku poked the mountain and beat up the enemy Hakkas that Ah Shou knew how familiar these two people were with Kurapika.

When Kurapika, who was called out by a phone call, saw Mu Mu and Shen Shen, his eyes immediately turned red, and he almost flew into their arms.Ah, no, when facing Shen Chen, he who was obviously much taller than Shen Shen actually hugged Shen Shen directly.Well, I feel a little unbearable to look directly at, what should I do?

"Brother Wood, Brother Chen," he didn't calm down until after venting, but his nasal voice was still a bit dull, "How do you know I'm here?"

"This little guy told us." Shen Shen pointed to Ah Shou who was completely ignored by Kurapika, "When we met him, he seemed to be being chased by someone, which was very similar to your situation at that time, so we Helped him by the way."

Kurapika obviously had great trust in the character of the two brothers, and he didn't have any doubts at all. Instead, he turned his head and asked, "Where did the guy who took you go? Did he cause the matter?"

"That guy... Mr. Xiaobai let me go first when he found out that someone was following him, and he stayed behind..." Ah Shou recalled that after being chased by spiders, Xiaobai immediately sold him You can't even make up a lie.

"When we met later, we didn't see that Mr. Bai, maybe..."

"Probably not, that guy is very strong, and he seems to have the same personality as Hisoka, maybe he just discovered something more interesting and forgot about you." Kurapika's analysis hit the nail on the head, although it was far from the truth It's far away, but it unexpectedly fits that guy's personality, "So you don't have to worry about him, Shou."

"But then again, why would anyone chase you?"

This... this... what should I say next!Why didn't you match up your lines with me beforehand!Ah Shou turned his eyes for help to Shen Shen.

"Don't worry, Shou, Kurapika's situation is similar to yours, you don't have to worry about it at all." Shen Shen's words made A Shou feel like a cloud, and he could only watch him perform alone.

"Let me introduce you again," Shen Shen said to the two, "This is the only survivor of the Kuruta tribe——Kurapika, and this is the youth of the Cang clan——A Shou, who is also on the brink of extinction."

Unlike Kura who seemed to have found empathy in the eyes of his companions, Ah Shou's heart sank in an instant.Why?Why was his identity exposed? Is Shen Chen warning him by mentioning this matter here?

Will the Phantom Troupe know about it?Will his previous behavior bring disaster to the tribe?The more Ah Shou thought about it, the more worried he became, and the color on his face gradually lost color.

"Don't worry, Shou." Seeing him like this, Kurapika thought he was surprised by the exposure of his identity, and quickly comforted him, "Brother and the others won't talk nonsense about such an important matter. A few years ago they Saved me, didn’t you keep it a secret until now? If they didn’t trust you, Ah Shou, they wouldn’t reveal my identity! Or do you not believe me.”

"No, no, of course I believe you," Ah Shou looked at Kurapika who was kept in the dark with a complicated expression, "I'm just surprised that they also know your identity and tell me so easily."

"Because we're friends!" Kurapika smiled sincerely, "And Gon, Kiya, and Leorio, they are also trustworthy friends, aren't they?"

They are indeed trustworthy friends, but the two people in front of you are absolutely not!

Ah Shou almost wanted to speak, and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Let's go first, Kurapika," Shen Shen placed a heavy hand on Shou's shoulder, strangled all his thoughts, "I also heard Shou talk about what happened during the exam, and now he is too Weak and small, it is not suitable to appear here, we will temporarily stay in the hotel at the foot of the mountain, and we will meet again when you leave!"

"Well, it's still brother Shenchen's thoughtfulness. I was negligent about this matter. Then you guys go away. If there are no accidents, we will meet again soon."

Several people waved goodbye, reluctantly.As for Ah Shou who turned to leave, despair gradually appeared in his eyes.

"It seems that the group leader is the one who is right!" They walked a distance, before Shen Shen said emotionally, "No wonder you need someone to accompany you, seeing how timid you are, I never thought you would have the courage to do such a thing , are you really not afraid of death?"

When it came, Ah Shou stopped, neither arguing nor resisting, and he could only pray that they would let his clansmen go because he hadn't had time to do anything yet.

One hand touched Ah Shou's head, judging from the size, it should be wood.Is he the one who did it?Ah Shou closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the arrival of the last moment.

"Why are you acting like this now?" Shen Shen's voice was a little funny, "If you were really scared, then why didn't you do it just now?"

"I... I forgot when I got excited, and didn't I have time to say it?" Ah Shou was afraid and wronged, and finally couldn't help crying, "I beg you, if you want to kill, just kill me alone." , don’t touch my people.”

Seeing his appearance, Shen Chen sighed deeply: "If you know you are afraid, then you should think clearly before acting."

He began to educate this child with good nature: "I heard Xiaobai tell you about what you did in the exam, so I want to ask you, do you think you have succeeded? It is because you want to help Qi Ya explain."

"Of course it was successful!" This is one of the few things Ah Shou is proud of when he mentions it, but then he saw Shen Shen's somewhat unhappy face, "No... isn't it? But I think the result is okay ah!"

Shen Chen finally discovered that for this little guy, he would not understand unless he explained things clearly: "Your success is based on the fact that Xiaobai saved you, so what if he didn't save you? You made Qi Ya sober How do you face the fact that you killed your friend with your own hands?"

One sentence sent Ah Shou from heaven to hell, and he remembered what Xiaobai had said to him during the exam——

Don't do unnecessary things~ boy~

Why don't you follow the advice of others~

If no one saves him, if he dies at the hands of Qi Ya, then will the kitten who was redeemed by Xiaojie in the original work still have a chance to show that heartfelt smile?

Very painful, very painful, more painful than when I was facing death.

Tears flowed down his cheeks...

He looked down at his hands: "Did I do something wrong?"

The big hand on his head patted him twice, as if to comfort him.

He tried his best to open those tearful eyes wide, and looked at Shen Shen: "Did I really do something wrong? Is it wrong for me to want to help him?"

"You have to do what you can to help others, Ah Shou." This is a well-protected seedling that has never experienced severe cold and wind, "I can see that you are a good boy, your parents probably love you very much! However, sometimes things can be done well without good intentions, and this is the real world, not a fairy tale."

What about you?You who killed all his relatives, friends and family members, what kind of feelings do you have for Kurapika?What is the purpose of approaching him?

Ah Shou wanted to speak, but he didn't know his position to ask these words.

How could Shen Shen, whose understanding of the human heart is many times stronger than Ah Shou, not see the words hidden in his heart: "It took us more than two years to get close to him. After such a long time, our feelings for him are not fake." , The desire to help him is not fake. You have been walking with him for so long, you should have known that he is a wise child, and hypocrisy cannot be hidden from his eyes."

Hearing these words, Ah Shou's mouth opened wider and wider, and he didn't know what he wanted to say.

"However," Shen Shen's words changed, and a faint killing intent flowed out, "If his existence hinders the survival of us and our allies, I will personally...destroy him."

"This... is the last thing I can do for him."
