[Hunter] Red Eye and Doll

Chapter 18 Youkexin City X Auction

After a moment of silence, Kurapika said, "Why do you ask this..."

The melody replied, "Actually, there is no reason, just curiosity. When you read that list, your heartbeat is even more intense than it is now. It is a bottomless... and extremely angry melody."

After hearing what she said, Kurapika sighed, "It seems that I can't fool you..."

He turned to look at Lala, and she nodded to him.

"I am a member of the Kuruta tribe. Although our eyes are usually close to brown, they turn red when we are excited. Therefore, I wear black contact lenses to prevent people from noticing.

I am looking for the eyeballs of my clansmen that were snatched by others, and I must return them to my companions... I will get them back no matter what.Are you going to tell Darzomo about this?"

Melody shook her head, "I don't want it anymore, I don't want to die here."

"You even know this..."

The melody means that the sound of the heartbeat can't lie, and there is Lala here.In her opinion, Kurapika and Lara should have known each other for a long time.

This is also heard from the heartbeat, because Kurapika's heartbeat reveals his trust in Lara.

Melody then asks Lala "So head maid, can I ask you a question".

"Well, you can ask."

"What are you, because I can't hear your heartbeat...or even breathing. It's like telling me that you are not human."

Lala said frankly, "Indeed, I am not human."

Then she took off her gloves and showed Melody her puppet hands, "I'm just an automatic puppet that has lived for hundreds of years."

"I see, dolls..."

This also explains why Melody can't hear her heartbeat anymore.

Lara said again, "Maybe you will know better if I say I am [Martel's Undead].

The melody was a little surprised, I didn't expect that the urban legend that the old people used to scare the children really existed...

Knowing the secret of the two of them, Melody also said his own "I am a music hunter, and I am currently looking for a sheet music. It is called [Dark Sonata]".

"..."

Hearing this name, Lala felt very nostalgic.I didn't expect to hear the name of this song from someone else's mouth.

[Dark Sonata], according to legend, is a solo composed by the Demon King.It is divided into 4 pieces including piano, violin, flute, and harp. It is said that if humans play or listen to this piece of music, terrible disasters will happen.

Melody pulled up his sleeves to show them both, and said that he had heard fragments of the flute before.It just became like this after listening to a movement, and the friend who played it was dead.

"[Dark Sonata] ah... As expected, a fake is a fake..." Lala murmured.

"Lara?" Kurapika looked at her suspiciously.

I saw Lala leaning on the roof and singing Miss Christine's "Lullaby"...

"こころの窓に立つ

さだめの Yokoyan...

ともしましょう梦を

keep ru hikari...

star ta da hi tori

Choose べと报げる......

love suru hitoga

わたしを叫べば変わる..."

Listening to Lala's singing, the melody was shocking "This is... Dark Sonata?! No... very similar but somewhat different... What the hell is this..."

Lala smiled and said, "This is a 'song' that Martel has passed down from generation to generation, and what I sang just now is just a part of the lyrics.

The song is said to be the key to 'something'.Someone once tried to imitate this song, and it turned out to be [Sonata of Darkness]".

"I didn't expect it to be like this..."

The melody can't help but wonder, what is the original song of [Dark Sonata] used to activate...

------------

[nine o'clock]

When the venue started on time, Lala raised her hand to use her Nian ability before leaving... The next second, a huge barrier formed by Ninen surrounded the entire venue.

"Lara? What are you going to do..."

"I have a bad feeling...I'll explain later!"

"【City of Shadow Devouring】"

This is also one of Lala's moves. Any living body that steps into the range of the barrier will be forced to absorb life energy, and the body will gradually become heavy and unable to move as time goes by.

Other than that, it has the same effect as 【Circle】.However, the enchantment of the City of Shadow Devourer can only be seen by the friendly side, and others cannot see or even feel its thoughts.

"!"

Not long after launching the City of Shadow Devourer, Lala felt the breath of life in the venue disappearing at an unheard of speed...

"What's the matter, Lara?" Kurapika saw that her expression was not good, and guessed that something must have happened in the venue.

Melody listened with both ears, "Although I can't hear it very clearly...but the inside of the building is very chaotic".

"No, something happened at the venue. Kurapika, you call Darzomo first! I'll take those three back first!"

"I see." Kurapika picked up the phone and called Darzomo.

While Kurapika was on the phone, Lara activated [Shadow] to bring the three people who participated in the auction back here.

——[Shadow], the shadow space generated in Lala's shadow is usually used to store things, and can also imprison life forms.

For those who have been seen in advance, Lala can call them back to her side through the shadow of the other party.

Then, Docino and the other three appeared from Lala's shadow.Among them, Docino was injured...

Melody stepped forward to give Docino emergency treatment and asked "What happened?"

Fei Jie hadn't recovered from the panic just now, she muttered to herself, "Someone...someone attacked the auction!"

"!!! X3"

"Is it a spider?!" Kurapika asked anxiously.

Yiwalianfu shook his head, "I don't know, there are two people in total. One of them is a person with the ability to release thoughts."

"..."

Although there is no definite news, he has a hunch that it must be done by a spider!

Lara patted Kurapika's shoulder to divert his attention, "Did Tatsuma say something?"

After regaining his senses, he said, "Captain, let us go there first."

"Okay, Yiwarafu will take Dokino and Fei Jie down first. Kurapika, Melody and I will go over to check the situation first." Lala assigned tasks in an orderly manner and hurried to the venue.

Kurapika was in charge of checking the situation at the venue, and Melody was in charge of checking the condition of the auction items stored in the underground vault.

And Lala wandered around to check... maybe there might be traces of the brigade.

——After a while, someone found out that a suspicious hot air balloon was flying to the Goud Desert.

At this time, Dazuomo called and asked all the bodyguards to go to Goude Desert...except Lala.Datsumo asked Lala to go back to protect Miss Niweng, for fear that someone would harm her.

"……I see".

Because [City of Devouring Shadows] has entered the cooling time.It might not be of much help for her to go now, and... now is not the time.

Back at the hotel, Lara activated the link with Kurapika.

【L.MConnectedK.P】

[GEM: Unlimited Black Diamond]

Through the link with Kurapika, Lara can see what happened on the scene.

Hmm...it's confirmed to be a spider.

There are seven people in total, let's 'tag' them first.

Ah, is Kurapika trying to catch that number 11... Indeed, his telekinetic ability came in handy after learning that they were members of the brigade.

Sure enough, he was caught without much effort.

——Not long after, Darzomo called.

[Hey, it's me.I'm sorry, but now the plan has changed and I need you to come here immediately.We just captured one of the members of the Phantom Brigade, the enemy is very tricky...]

"I know, let's go now."

[I have let other people go to rest first, and the gangsters will come to take away the members of the Phantom Troupe later]

Black gang? Maybe it's a spider who came over.Sorry Darzumo, I'm going to use you a little...

Everything is for Kurapika.

After arriving at the building where the spiders were held, Lala did not go in but chose to use [Hidden] and [Extreme] to eliminate the breath on the roof.

She didn't show up until the other spiders came to rescue their companions and killed Darzomo...

After making sure they were all gone, Lala called up the CCTV footage.In addition to knowing the appearance of one more member, there is also their name.

Looks like that big man named Wojin is going to settle accounts with Kurapika... This is bad.

No...it's better to say it's a good opportunity.

------------

After that, Lala called all the security guards back to the hotel.

She announced to everyone that "I returned to where you were after you fled and found Darzomo dead".

"!!!"

Everyone was surprised for a moment, and then calmed down.

Basho asked her, "Then what shall we do now?"

Lara said, "I will call the master and ask him to make a decision."

"master?"

Skuwala explained, "It's the boss's father, Wright Nostra. He usually gives instructions to the captain and the head maid, and no one knows how to contact him except the two of them."

"Exactly".

She also made a special statement, "Because I didn't participate in the subsequent events, I still need someone to explain to the master. Let me choose one of you."

"..."

You look at me, I look at you.

In the end, everyone chose Kurapika.

"I understand, then please follow me."

Lala first took everyone to Nion's room, and after explaining to her, Lala started making calls.

"Hey, sir, it's me. That's right, Darzomo has died in the line of duty due to various reasons."

[What!How is Nanion doing? ]

"You can rest assured that Miss Nion is safe now."

[That's good……]

"About the details, I'll ask the bodyguard team to tell you. Because of Darzomo's assignment, I didn't participate in the follow-up matters. He will know better than me."

[OK, give him the phone]

"Kurapika" Lara handed him the phone.

——After talking to Wright Nostra, the captain was replaced by Kurapika.Wright's first order was to leave Nyon out of their sight.

Then Kurapika went to the information website dedicated to professional hunters to investigate some things, and found that the Phantom Troupe is also likely to take advantage of this...

Immediately and decisively took Nion to another room registered under the name of Basho or Melody.

"You don't need to check out this room." Kurapika seemed to have another idea.

Melody asked him "Then you..."

"I will stay".

"Could it be that you want to follow him..." Melody probably guessed something.

"..."

Kurapika nodded silently.

Seeing that he had made up his mind to go, Lala stood up, "Then I will stay with you too."

"Lala..."

Originally, he wanted to persuade her not to stay, but now he saw her firm eyes.He had no choice but to agree...

"I know. But, don't interfere."

"En!" Hearing him let go, Lala smiled unconsciously.
