[Hunter] How to kill a zombie

Say hello to them and ask a few to step back and talk.Datsune followed into the back room, leaving Kurapika and Melody beside Nyon.

Is it worrying about her being alone with Nyon?Zooey couldn't help thinking.

And since she is accompanied by guards, why does she need to play with her?Does Lucas have any other plans?

"Are you Zoe?" The pink-haired lady blinked and asked, "It's great~ you can go out by yourself. Dad doesn't allow me to go alone," she glanced at Melody and Kula resentfully Pickup, "Always send someone to spy on me!"

Melody smiled gently and said, "That's because the master is afraid that the Boss will be hurt."

"Hey...but this is really boring!"

Wow, the sound is very nice.Zooey thought after hearing Melody speak, and then said, "Shall I show you the house?"

"Okay! I heard that the Corleone family also has a lot of collections, and I want to see it too. Do you have red eyes in your collection? Let me tell you, I won't lose this auction! Kuruta I will definitely buy the eyes of the family, since you already have them, don't snatch them from me." Nion looked very happy.

"Are you a human body collector?" Zooey asked in surprise. It was the first time she met a human body collector other than her father, but she didn't expect it to be a girl in her teens.Even the fact that her father is a human body collector only came to her mind recently when she was doing experiments on herself when she was trying to "restore memory".However, do ordinary girls have such hardcore hobbies?Shouldn't there be some secrets?

"Yeah, Zoe, do you have anything in your collection?"

"Me?" Zooey thought for a while, and paid attention to the two Nostra family guards who had been following them from the corner of her eye.The blond boy hasn't said a word since we met, but the atmosphere around him changed obviously when Nyon mentioned the red eyes. "Well...it's hard to say whether it counts as a collection, but I like collecting books, and stories."

"A book?" Nyon asked curiously, "Then can you read it?"

"Eh? Let's just... still read it."

"Ah, it's so rare." Nyon was suddenly very interested, "Because none of the book collectors I know read their own books! They just take them out to appreciate occasionally. Although my own collection can only be taken out for reading. The degree of viewing...but it feels cool to have a functional collection like this!"

"Is that so?" Zooey was a little ashamed for a moment, feeling that she didn't seem to be able to keep up with the topic, "Indeed...if you read an expensive rare book, it feels a bit extravagant, and you will not be satisfied with the appearance of the book." and value. But books are meant for people to read. I think whether it’s for decoration or reading material, it’s good to make the best use of it.”

"Eh. Speaking of which, I think divination is the same...Whether it is a warning or a blessing, as long as it can help people who are still alive, it is the best. This is what my favorite fortune-teller 'Grandmother of the Milky Way' said words, 'Divination exists for the living.'”

So, Nyon is the "divinator" of the Nostra family, right?

In a sense, such innocence is also a bit cruel.But Zooey suddenly understood why Nion became a collector of human bodies.

closed environment.The pillar of the Nostra family.Perhaps this was her way of calling for help.

While Zoe was chatting with Nion, Melody walking behind them was also communicating silently with Kurapika.Melody used Nun to gather a few words on the index finger, while Kurapika used "condensation" to read the message that Melody wanted to convey.

"She has no heartbeat."

Melody can judge the other person's emotional state and mental activity by hearing their heart sounds, and even judge whether the other person is lying.But Zoe didn't have a heartbeat - and that was almost impossible.

Kurapika nodded, meaning he understood.Although I don't know if the Corleone family is secretly playing tricks, but just in case, they must protect Nion's life before the auction.This girl named Zoe is very likely to be a dangerous person, and she must be kept away from Nion.

"The collection room is here," Zooey said, "Go in and take a look."

"Wait a minute," Kurapika interrupted suddenly, "Sorry, can you let Boss and Melody go in alone? I have something to ask Miss Zoe."

"Eh?" Zooey was a little surprised, "It's okay, so you go in first."

"Zoe, come and see me later!" Nyon did not think too much, and went in to visit after saying hello.

After Zoe promised Nion to find her later, she turned to face Kurapika.

"So, what's the matter?" Zooey looked at the national costume on the boy and said, "I dare to guess, could it be related to the red eyes?"

The aura on the boy's body suddenly became sharp, and he asked coldly, "What did you say?"

"So, you are the orphan of the Kuruta clan, right? Well... you are called Kurapika, right? Actually, if you want the red eyes, you can discuss them with Lucas. Those things are all from me... He shouldn't mind much about what his parents left behind." And if she remembers correctly, Lucas hated his father's collections so much that he wanted to burn them down, so he never used them in the collection room. Going in, the people under him have been taking care of it.

Zoe felt a hint of murderous intent from Kurapika, and the boy's voice became even deeper.

"how do you know?"

No... that...how should I put it?Because you are wearing the national costume of the Kuruta tribe?

Zoe smiled helplessly: "I like to read books more. I can read a little bit of everything. I have read some encyclopedias of anthropology and folklore." Then she paused, "Well... Actually, I will introduce the seven beauties It is also recorded in the book, so if you want to hide your identity, it may be better to change clothes."

"..." Kurapika was silent for a while, "Thank you for reminding me."

Still an honest boy.Zoe said with emotion.

"However, that's not what I want to ask." He continued, "Miss Zoe, can you explain why you don't have a heartbeat?"

Negotiation

Zoe didn't really care how Kurapika found out about it.It's possible that it's his or a companion's ability (after all, the Melody guy seems surprised when he sees her), or it's possible that information about her has leaked through some channels.If it's the latter, Dazuonian shouldn't let Zoe get close to Nyon easily, so the possibility is very low. If it's the former, just help them modify their memory at the end.

In fact, Zoe can completely avoid answering Kurapika's question directly.Her ability is really convenient at this time, but there is one thing that Zoe is very concerned about: if she remembers correctly, the case of the Kuruta tribe is recognized as being done by the Phantom Brigade.How could it be a coincidence that the Red Eye from Youkexin Auction, the orphan of the Kuruta tribe, and the members of the Phantom Troupe appeared in the same place at this moment?

If this boy joined the Nostra family because of the red eye that appeared at the auction, it would also make sense logically.After all, Nyon is a human body collector, and he must have considered this before choosing Nostra from among the many exhibitors.The question is, does he know that the Phantom Troupe is also here?

Wait... Phantom Troupe, Nostra's prophetic poem...

As far as Zoe knows, there are currently four spiders gathered in Youkexin. Obviously, they are not here to have a club. So, what is the reason for the large number of members to gather?

Like Kurapika, it's an auction.

Knowing that Lucas was worrying about the auction and Nostra's prophecy poems, Zooey also secretly took a look at the note.The content of the poem only said that something will happen on the day of the auction. If she remembers correctly, the specific content is:

"The basement, where everything will increase in value, will become your sleeping place. You can't go down the stairs you haven't climbed, and you can't compete with others for numbers."

Judging from the content of the poem, it can only be explained that the lives of those who participated in the auction will be in danger (including Lucas, of course), but the gangsters can only know this in advance because of Nion's prophecy ability. Of course, it is impossible to know exactly why life is in danger, but these two things suddenly became connected in Zoe's mind.The Phantom Troupe, the auction, the Kuruta tribe...

The Phantom Troupe will raid the auction house.

Maybe she could form some sort of partnership with Kurapika.

"Are you saying there is no heartbeat? It's actually normal, because I'm dead." Zoe said with a smile, "Oh, don't look at me like that, I'm not a ghost or something. Actually... I'm because of someone The mind that becomes stronger after death is what it is now—even if the body dies, it cannot sleep peacefully."

"Nen that becomes stronger after death...?"

"Well, that man's name is Arthur Greystone. I don't know if you've heard of it. He is my uncle, and he is also the person I have... most admired." Zoe said, "But he was captured by a phantom brigade The members of the regiment were killed. His ability is quite special, and it is related to memory, maybe it is because of this that I can stand here like I am now."

"You mean, the Phantom Troupe?" Kurapika's voice trembled slightly, although only a little.

"Yes." Zooey looked straight into Kurapika's eyes, "Actually, I heard
