[Hunter] False World

"You look stunning tonight."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Bandit."

"Oh, I'm just stating the facts. Can I do a dance, Miss July? Oh, yes. Before that, please allow me to introduce myself to you. My name is Kurolo Roussillo, as you know , is a robber who commits all kinds of crimes."

This is the first dance at the banquet at Byron Manor.

Kuroro stood beside July, with one arm behind her to prop up the buffet bar, and the other stretched out in front of her as an invitation.The man was smiling and looked polite.With such a graceful demeanor, no one present would associate him with the outlaw who knocked two nobles unconscious with a hand knife and stole the invitation letter before the banquet started.

Take a sip of red wine in July.Putting down the goblet, she frowned slightly at the man, "Hey, I don't want to know your name..." Turning to Kurolo, Qiyue reached out to smooth his shirt and suit for him, "Mr. Kurolo, I Can't dance. I think you can invite other dance partners, there are a group of girls at two o'clock from you who are eager to try."

Kuroro lowered his head and chuckled, his black hair fell in front of his eyes, blocking his vision, "What a coincidence."

Qiyue turned around in the direction of the man's sideways gaze, and a brown-haired young man in a tuxedo walked towards her.Noticing each other's eyes, the brown-haired youth smiled at Qiyue, and Qiyue smiled back, then put his hand into Kuroro's palm, "Are you a beast?"

Sing a song leisurely.

July was embraced by a pair of warm and strong arms and rushed towards the crowd on the dance floor.The hem of the skirt moved slightly with every step, and she danced very well.

Kuroro looked down at her, close at hand.The man made a faint smile, "What do you think?"

"You are very domineering." Looking directly at those black eyes that seemed to be able to swallow people, Qiyue also outlined a smile on her lips, "It's like a beast likes to mark its territory and parade to demonstrate. Mr. Trouble, your possessiveness is also Very strong."

He looked directly into her eyes, and she never looked away.There are melodious dance music in my ears.When the light came down, both of them squinted their eyes slightly in the light, with smiles on their lips, like a perfect couple in the eyes of everyone.

And only Qiyue knew that the breath of the beast was close at hand.He leaned in, "I'd be bothered if you got borrowed."

Step lightly, step back and move forward.

Spinning and spinning, people blurred.

Kuroro lowered his head and smiled, and the warm breath from his words brushed against Qiyue's ears, "Are you ready?"

On the next spin the two danced shoulder to shoulder with the host of the party.Qiyue grinned lightly at the gray-haired old gentleman, took a step, and a thin tongue of flame passed between the two at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

The hem of the skirt moved slightly, and the dance steps were light.

Qiyue raised her eyebrows and smiled, and there was an extra key in the palm of Kuroro's hand.

"Would you like to continue dancing, Mr. Bandit?"

"Of course." Kuroro replied.

His eyes glanced at the light gray tuxedo coat of the host of the banquet, and there was only a slight trace of burning on the edge of the hem.Almost flawless.

previous assumptions overturned.This woman's ability to control fire is much more precise than imagined.Oh, what a born liar.

At the end of the song, the two walked around the bustling crowd and exited the dance floor.

A bright crescent moon rose outside the banquet hall, and the clouds covered the sky, revealing only a few stars.

Bypassing the main building, this pair of thieves cleverly avoided the servants and bodyguards they met along the way, and soon came to the back of the main building.

"The collection room is behind the garden." July reminded.

"Our goal is not in the collection room." The man stopped laughing, his hair was blown by the night wind, and the cross tattoo was faintly visible on his forehead, "The Byron family had a prosperous history, and the ancestors of the family were all famous relic hunters. It can be said that the peak and decline of this family were both when Glad Byron was in charge of the family. It is said that although Glad Byron enjoys a high position in the government and has a high reputation, he always likes to say things that are not recognized by the world Crazy talking."

"He is obsessed with the study of ancient monuments, especially the local history and relics of Caria, and he is obsessed with madness."

"At the end of the last century, Glad Byron suddenly disappeared while searching for a relic. It is said that not long before the incident, he made a big announcement to the people around him, claiming that he would discover a secret that would shock the world, but in the end he succeeded in death. Crazy After the death of the lunatic patriarch, the locals whispered in private that he was a lunatic. The family has also gradually declined since that generation, and until today there have been no relic hunters."

Speaking of this, Kuroro suddenly stopped speaking.

Looking up at him in July, holding her breath, she waited for the next part of the story.

But the man suddenly laughed without warning, "Can I understand your expression as worship?"

……

"Yes, Mr. Erudite Robber." Qiyue gave Ku Luoluo an angry look, "Then what is it about this family of liars that attracts your patronage over and over again?"

"I'll talk about that later." The man smiled, "Let's go to the second floor first."

Qiyue raised her eyes and glared at him, "Aren't you a robber who commits all kinds of crimes? If you don't charge up directly from the banquet hall, are you going to climb the window from behind like a little thief like me?"

"Heh..." The hand in the pocket of the suit trousers stretched out, brushing the hair, Kuroro's tone was a little helpless, "I'm here for vacation, there is no need to cause unnecessary commotion." At least he doesn't want to let it go This small city caught Hisoka's attention.It seemed interesting here, and he wanted to stay a while longer.

"So now it seems that we should climb the window..."

After a few jumps, the two stepped onto the edge of the window on the second floor.Open the window, invade, and move in one go.

Landing lightly, July praised, "Mr. Robber, you have great potential to be a thief."

"Thanks for the compliment." Kuroro took Qiyue's shoulders and led her to the end of the corridor.The two stopped in front of an oil painting hanging at the end of the corridor.Kuroro raised his hand to move the picture frame, and a secret door appeared on the wall of the corridor that had already reached the end.

Pushing the door open, the long-accumulated dust in the room spread out, Qiyue covered her mouth and nose in disgust and dodged aside, while Kuroro only raised his hand to wave away the dust, and stepped into the dark room without a moment's delay.

When Qiyue went back to look around, he found that this dark room only allowed one person to turn around and move around, except for the space to open the door.I was just hired as a thief and had no interest in these monuments.Thinking this way, Qiyue was about to back away, but the man suddenly exited the door, grabbed Qiyue's shoulders and pushed her into the secret room.

"Sorry, I still need your help."

A man's voice came from behind his ears, and his breath was warm and moist against his hair.July heard a numbness in her left ear.She wanted to back out of the dark room, but stepped back into the arms of the man.

"Don't move around, it's barely enough for two people to stand here."

There was no moonlight at the end of the corridor, and the dark room behind the oil painting was even darker.

In the confined and small space, Kuroro surrounded July from behind, "I think I need you to light a fire."

A cluster of flames ignited at the fingertips, and the slightly warm body temperature pressed against the back.July urged with a slightly lazy voice, "Mr. Bandit, please hurry up."

In the place illuminated by the fire, it can be seen that there is a wooden bookshelf on the right side of the dark room, and many ancient books and manuscripts are placed from top to bottom.

In order not to cause a fire, Qiyue could only light a small cluster of flames, and the space was small. In order to find what the robber wanted, the two had to stick closer together.

However, unlike July's awkwardness, Kuroro is very leisurely.

He surrounded July with his left hand from behind, and with his right hand directed the fire beams lit by July to slide across the bookshelves one by one.

When passing by one place, he stopped his right hand, lowered his head and leaned against July's ear, and leisurely talked about the unfinished topic before, "Aren't you curious about the amazing discovery that Grad wanted to announce before he died?"

Qiyue wanted to shake her head, but feeling the weight from the top of her head and the clinging posture at this moment, she was sure that the robber was playing hooligans on her.Born to be as casual as she is, Qiyue simply put her head on the man's shoulder, and if she wanted to take advantage of it, she said that she was also eating his tofu, "Compared with his so-called amazing discovery, I am more curious about what made you produce Such intense interest."

Kuroro chuckled softly, turned his head to meet July's gaze, "This man named Glad Byron is used to writing relic research into his work diary. Because he was called a liar in private by the world after his death, so the work The diary is not noticed by people. Of course, there is another reason for this. Grad thinks that his relic research manuscript is a very precious treasure, so he specially built this secret room in the house to hide the work diary."

The two right hands fixed the frame, and Kuroro took down a sheepskin-sealed diary, "It is said that he has been studying the tomb of King Mosorsky during his lifetime, which seems to have a subtle connection with his declaration and inexplicable disappearance. .It is this diary of a 'madman' that interests me."

Listening to the man's narration, July illuminated the open diary with firelight, and there were densely packed strange words in it.

"Sure enough, he's a weirdo." There was a slightly excited exclamation next to his ear, "Even the diary is recorded in ancient characters."

Closing the diary, July stuffed it into Kuroro's vacant right hand, "I don't think he's weirder than you."

However, the robber who got the diary didn't intend to leave the dark room. The right hand holding the diary circled Qiyue's arm, and together with the previous left hand, he embraced her in his arms.Kuroro tilted his head, while July still leaned on his shoulder.

The man bowed his head and pulled the distance between the two closer, and the breath of his lips and teeth could almost touch each other when he spoke.

A playful smile flashed in his night eyes, "If you don't tell you today, when are you going to ask my name?"

"I'm not going to ask." July replied.Her bright lips were illuminated by the fire, and the man's handsome face was reflected in the amber pupils. Riding on the light of the fire, the robber in front of her appeared to be more deceptive than before.

"Let me guess." The curve of Kuroro's lips slightly raised, "You didn't name the seabirds you raised, did you? I've heard a saying that when a person names a pet, You're close to your seabird, so it's not that you don't like him, or that you're too lazy to name him, it's just that you don't want to have feelings for him. Am I right?"

This remark made it impossible for Qiyue to refute, her eyes turned cold, and she stared straight at the robber in front of her.

"The life cycle of seabirds is very short compared to humans. Let's assume that you are afraid of developing feelings for it, so you refuse to give it a name, so maybe you won't be too sad when it dies. Then..." Speaking of this, Kurolo is short Pausing for a moment, he stared at the amber-colored pupils of July, pulling the distance closer, and the smile on his lips became stronger.

"And why do you refuse to know my name?"

The man's beautiful and seductive lip line was close to Qiyue's eyes, she turned her face away, and his lips were next to her ear.The breath is warm and moist, and the soft touch rubs against the skin with words.The space is too small and the atmosphere is too subtle.I'm not interested in July if I can't say that sentence that is used to deceive people.

The world is unreal to her, so she refuses to accept it and is not interested in anything.However, the man in front of him brings truth, and Qiyue relies on that companionship, but at the same time rejects him.She refused to know his name, refused to accept it, so as not to lose it.

"My name is Kuroro Rushiru." The demagogic voice repeated, as if announcing capture to the prey.

The man's dark eyes danced with fire, and he said, "July, what are you afraid of?"
