About the fact that I am from the dark continent

"The president will start the interview now. Anyone who hears their number plate is invited to the Phase [-] reception room on the second floor."

"Exam number 1, please go to the reception room with exam number one—"

The spaceship took off, moved slowly in the sky, and passed through the white clouds. Lily was standing by the window at this moment, waiting for the broadcast above her head to sound, and then the girl gently turned her head to the side.

"Then I'll go first."

After a brief greeting with Little Jackie and the others, Lily turned around and walked towards the stairs with strides.

The sound of leather shoes slapping across the ground echoed clearly in the empty and unoccupied corridor. The reception room was not far from the first floor, and Lily quickly opened the door.

"You're welcome, Lily."

Nitro was the only one sitting in the room. He sat with his legs crossed on a large soft cushion. On the wall behind him hung a big heart character written with a brush, which was very artistic.

"In short, sit down first."

"Getting along alone... Speaking of which, this seems to be the first time, right?"

The old man said this, as if he was muttering to himself, and then he patted the cushion in front of him, motioning for Lily to sit in front of him.

"Mr. Nitro, do you have any questions for me?"

Lily walked forward, sat down as he said, then raised her head, and her red moon-like pupils looked at the person in front of her.

"Well, it's better to say it's just pure curiosity?"

Netero smiled, and saw that he straightened his body slightly, and then continued to speak.

"Among these candidates, who do you think stands out the most?"

Outstanding candidate?

Lily tilted her head and thought for a while, and she replied, "Sure enough, Qiya and Xiaojie should be, because being with them is very interesting, and you won't feel bored at all."

"What about the person you don't want to fight the most?"

"Well... I don't really think about it."

"Don't even think about it?"

Different from what she imagined, Lily gave a different answer, which made Netero raise his eyelids in surprise.

"Because it's boring."

Lily's reasons are simple and straightforward.

She knelt on the mat, put her hands on her knees, and tilted her head slightly.

"Human beings are really too fragile, as long as they are negligent, they can easily take their lives."

The overwhelming power is too strong, and it is impossible to experience the fun of fighting. Lily doesn't like to do such meaningless things, because for her, it is just a waste of time.

Besides, she is not a perverted murderer who takes pleasure in plundering other people's lives. When there is no oppressive threat to her, Lily is still very friendly and easy to get along with, no matter who the other party is.

Netero glanced at her again, took out his hand from his pocket, and pressed it to his chin: "Really, I understand."

He paused again, then took out a flat card from his pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it in the opposite direction.

"Then, this is for you."

Two big X's are connected together, the gap in the middle is filled with red, and the border is conspicuous green, obviously, this is a hunter's license.

"The hunter's license has been yours since the time you got on the boat to snatch the ball. This old man is a man who keeps his word."

After being reminded by the other party, Lily finally recalled that there was indeed such a thing, "So, it means, can I pass the level directly without taking part in the last test?"

Nitro: "Well, you're not interested in sparring anyway, are you?"

Although it is very interesting to let her participate, the other party is too special and is an extremely unstable factor. Considering the overall situation, Nitro finally decided to make such a choice.

"Ah, I found Lily!"

Sitting on the sofa drinking a drink with ice cubes, because the height of the sofa was too high, the girl kept shaking her legs back and forth, while propping her other hand on the soft surface, she turned her head only after hearing a familiar voice Pass.

It was Xiaojie, and he was walking towards her.

"Xiaojie, have you finished going to the reception room too?"

Lily put the transparent glass cup on the table, she bent down, and lightly bit the white plastic straw, the orange-flavored juice filled her mouth again, and it was very cool and comfortable.

The boy replied, then took off his schoolbag very naturally, and sat on the seat opposite Lily, "Well, I was asked a few questions, is Lily the same?"

"Hmm... almost, but Mr. Nitro gave me a hunter's license directly."

"Huh? Really?"

Xiaojie showed a very powerful expression, and then suddenly, as if he remembered something, he suddenly realized and continued: "Speaking of it, I said it in the game of grabbing the ball before, as long as you can grab the ball You can directly become a hunter.... Lily snatched it at that time—"

"However, what do you do next? Do you want to continue to follow us to the next exam location?"

"probably."

She still wants to wait for Xiaojie and his team to finish the game, but according to Nitro, the spaceship will take about three days to reach the final destination, and it will take a long time.

The time is really long enough.

But compared to this, Lily has one more thing to care about now.

The girl called out his name, "Xiaojie."

Xiaojie looked up and responded, "Huh? What's wrong?"

"Did something happen—"

"You seem to have been listless since just now."

Unlike him who was usually full of energy, Lily could smell different emotions through the air. Even though the other party had tried to hide it as much as possible, she could still feel it clearly.

——angry, but powerless, and some other emotions mixed together, so complicated that Lily couldn't understand it for a while.

"Is it so obvious? Not only Kurapika, but Lily can also see it."

Hearing what Lily said, Xiaojie was taken aback for a moment, then laughed dryly a few times, and scratched his head in embarrassment, but soon, his bright pupils suddenly sank.

"Hisuo...that is, the previous candidate No. 44, Lily should know that he is my prey."

The boy was silent for a while before continuing.

"Although I seized his number plate at the right time, I was injured by a poisoned arrow from another person who followed me, and I let that guy take the number plate."

"As a result, Hisoka killed him, took back his own number plate and kept it, and said that he would keep the number plate with me for safekeeping. I rejected him loudly, but was punched to the ground by him. ... To be honest, I really hated myself at that time, and I had no strength to fight back!"

"Afterwards, I felt very sad, very desolate, and strongly felt my lack of strength, so I went to find Kurapika and Leorio, hoping to help them and make myself more useful."

Not reconciled, but also the anger towards his incompetent self, the emotions in his heart surged up, Xiaojie couldn't help clenching his fist, but at the same time, a white hand also covered it.

"Xiaojie has always been very powerful, and he is also very important to everyone! It's not useless!"

The girl held his hand with both hands, and then took a step closer to him. This action forced Xiaojie to raise his head, facing the other's wine-red pupils like jewels.

"If you feel that you are weak, then just try to become stronger——I can see that Xiaojie has great potential and will become very strong in the future. Presumably Hisoka thinks that way, so I asked you to help me He kept the number plate."

"So please don't deny yourself so easily!"

The curtains of the spaceship were blown away by the wind, and the sunlight peeked out from behind the dark clouds, passed through the transparent glass, sprinkled on the girl's body, and shone into his pupils at the same time.

Different from the feeling of powerlessness just now, the feeling in his heart suddenly became surging, as if he was infected by the girl's mood, he actually felt that his blood was gradually boiling up.

Become stronger.

——Yes, if you are weak, then it would be good to become stronger, strong enough to defeat Hisoka, and return the number plate to its original owner.

The thoughts in my heart are untied, like sorting out a few messy yarns one by one, this is a very refreshing feeling.

"Thank you Lily, I seem to understand a little bit."

Xiaojie raised his head and showed a big smile as if he was relieved: "You are right, I have to train harder, and I must ask Hisoka to take back the number plate!"

Lily also laughed, and she said, "Well, if it's Xiaojie, there's absolutely no problem."

It turned out that an optimist like Xiaojie also had such a depressing day. To be honest, Lily felt quite fresh, but it was more suitable for him to smile than to cry, so it was great to be able to recover so quickly.

"However, Lily, have you been with Qiya all these days?"

Not long after thinking like that just now, the boy's voice rang out from his ears again.

Although she didn't know why the other party asked this question, Lily answered truthfully, "Well, yes, what's wrong?"

"It's not an important thing, I just care a little bit."

"care?"

"Well...how should I put it better."

Xiaojie lowered his head, put his hand on his chin and thought seriously, he pondered for a while, and then said, he seemed a little distressed, "Well... I don't know what's going on, every time I watch You have this feeling when you are very close to Qi Ya, it is a sudden thump in the heart, like the feeling of twisting a towel, it is hard to describe anyway.”

Feel like twisting a towel?Lily was a little confused so she blinked her eyes.

She had seen many people twisted into towels by her, but this was the first time she had heard of Xiaojie's statement, which made Lily look at him worriedly.

"Isn't it sick? It sounds terrible."

Lily is good at destroying, but not good at healing, but most of the diseases in the human world are not very serious, so it shouldn't matter, right?

"Ah, although it is unlikely, it is indeed possible."

Xiaojie blinked his eyes, feeling that what Lily said made sense, and then he evoked a big smile.

"I see, then I'll ask Leorio later."
