Hunter x Hunter: Domineering Practitioner
Chapter 73
"The treasure is missing?"
"Where are the people who are attending the auction?"
"They are gone too. I searched the entire building but couldn't find them."
……
The building where the auction was held was in chaos, with members of various gangs running around looking for the missing core members of their gangs.
There were also some people who were looking for the whereabouts of the treasure under the guise of looking for their own gang members. After all, some of the treasures being auctioned were put up for bidding by them, and the missing treasures were all theirs.
Outside the building, there were gangsters' cars parked in a haphazard manner, and the road not far away was also filled with parked cars, blocking traffic.
Fei Jie drove the car to an inconspicuous corner across the road and was about to open the door to ask everyone to get out, but Tian Ming said, "No need to go in. The Phantom Troupe has already left in a hot air balloon."
As he spoke, he pointed to the sky. Kurapika opened the car door and looked up into the sky through a telescope. In the pitch-black sky, there was indeed an oval-shaped object that looked like a hot air balloon flying.
However, the hot air balloon seemed to have been specially treated. When viewed from below, the fire in the hot air balloon could not be seen at all. Only a vague black shadow could be seen floating.
He turned his head to look at the Melody in the car, who gently closed her eyes. The noisy environment and the bustling city around her instantly quieted down. Thousands of meters above the ground, a man's heroic and rough voice reached her ears.
"Uh! All the treasures from the underground auction are gone." Wo Jin said to the phone while scratching his chest hair.
He had an extremely rugged appearance and wore a grey vest similar to animal skin. When he spoke, his voice was full of confidence and powerful, like thunder exploding in your ears.
The voice coming from the other end of the phone was an extremely soothing male voice that made people feel like a spring breeze.
"So your point is... there is a traitor among our brigade?"
The leader of the Phantom Troupe, Kuroro, spoke in a very calm tone, as if nothing could cause any ripples in his heart.
Wo Jin's eyes suddenly became extremely fierce, and he swept his gaze over the other members of the brigade on the hot air balloon, and then he said in a deep voice to the phone: "This is too coincidental!
In the past half month, gangsters have been bringing their treasures here to bid for auction. However, just a few hours before we arrived today, the treasures were suddenly moved away. If someone hadn't leaked the news, why would the gangsters do this?"
Kuroro thought about it, then calmly analyzed to Wogin that it was impossible for there to be a traitor in the brigade.
First of all, the treasures obtained by the brigade members after each successful robbery will be divided equally, and even the share he, the leader, gets is the same as that of other members.
That is to say, after this deal is completed, each member of the brigade can get 1/13 of the total value of the treasure at the gang auction. He would never believe that the gang would be willing to pay such a large sum of money to bribe the brigade members, and it is impossible for any brigade member to be stupid enough to give up such a large sum of money and betray the brigade.
After convincing Ugin not to doubt the other members, Kuroro said calmly, "Don't worry about the information leak. I will investigate it myself next."
Although the brigade killed many gang members this time, the core purpose of this operation was still for the treasure. Now that the treasure has not been found, the operation has been temporarily declared a failure, but Wo Jin has other ideas at this time.
He asked Kuroro on the other end of the phone, "I heard that the one who moved the treasure was the leader of the Yin Beasts, a man named Owl. Can I go meet the Yin Beasts?"
Kuroro's calm tone suddenly fluctuated. He chuckled and said, "Go! Make a bigger noise so that the Yin Beast can be attracted out. But the leader of the Yin Beast must be captured alive. The other party knows the whereabouts of the treasure. After catching him, let Feitan interrogate him."
After getting Kuroro's permission, Wo Jin's excited mental energy gushed out from his body. The high-purity mental energy attached to his body like armor, and the whole person was like a prehistoric beast ready to attack.
"Very good...very good! Hahaha!"
Below, Melody, who was monitoring the movements of Wo Jin and his companions, took a step back in fear, then stared at the sky vigilantly with wide eyes and gasped heavily.
Fei Jie noticed Melody's abnormality immediately, walked over to her side, supported her shoulders and asked, "What's wrong, Melody? What happened?"
Melody shook her head to indicate that she was fine, and then said seriously: "The Phantom Troupe seems to want to kill the gangsters in order to lure out the 'Yin Beast' to snatch the treasure from them."
"Rob the treasure? Hasn't the treasure been taken away by the Phantom Troupe?"
"The treasure was not taken away by the brigade. These things cannot be explained in a short time. I will explain them to you in detail later."
Tianming used his Observation Haki to observe the hot air balloon above his head. The amount of Nen energy of each of the people on it was very huge. It was the first time he saw so many masters of Nen energy gathered together.
He clenched his fists and his body trembled slightly. The blood in his body was boiling. Just when his mental energy was about to be released instinctively, he forcibly suppressed it.
We cannot act impulsively now. We need to let the Phantom Troupe kill more gang members. We can only start hunting the troupe after all the Yin Beasts are wiped out. That is when their bounty will be the highest.
At this moment, the hot air balloon carrying the Phantom Troupe in the sky suddenly lit up red. The hot air balloon, which was originally hidden in the night sky, suddenly became extremely conspicuous and attracted more attention than fireflies in the middle of the night.
The gang members on the ground were the first to notice the hot air balloon in the sky. Although these gang members are evil, they are not fools. Suddenly flying away from the city in a hot air balloon late at night, it is obvious that there is something wrong with this group of people.
The large gangster group present gathered instantly, and a group of black cars chased in the direction of the hot air balloon.
Tianming and others followed from behind when they saw this, but they always kept a certain distance from the gang's vehicles.
This was also Tianming's request, the reason being to let these gang members go up and explore the way first, while they were farther away and could use binoculars and Melody's telepathy to observe the situation first.
Just as everyone followed the hot air balloon to the outside of Youkexin, Melody, who had been monitoring the Phantom Troupe, suddenly looked at Tianming, the co-pilot, and praised him: "Your judgment is correct. If we follow the gangster group, we will definitely be targeted."
Tianming asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"A member of the Phantom Troupe mentioned you."
Going back a little in time, the knight threw some unknown powder into the flame of the hot air balloon. The hot air balloon, which had been specially treated so that it would not emit light even in the dark, suddenly emitted a striking red light.
After doing all this, the knight clapped his hands, and suddenly remembered something and asked the other members of the brigade: "By the way, do you remember the weirdo we met before the auction started?"
After being reminded by him, Franklin and Feitan also remembered, and Xiaodi asked in a silly way: "Who are you talking about?"
Franklin explained: "He was the man who kept staring at us when we walked in. He was wearing what seemed to be a black and white martial arts uniform and was about 20 years old."
