[Comprehensive] Doing a puzzle

"I mean, let's do it again, I'll take it seriously, I won't be so perfunctory like that time just now." Kurapika's request was very serious.

Quan looked around for a while, and said in a low voice, "What if someone sees it..."

"As a hunter, you don't even have this bit of vigilance." Kurapika was dubious.

"……okay then."

Izumi squatted down again, and hesitantly moved to Kurapika's side with small steps.

The blond boy looked around from the corner of his eye and quietly approached her.

He was very nervous and couldn't help but took a deep breath.

Then he closed his eyes, desperate to kiss her.

The result was—he accidentally bit the tip of Quan's tongue, and the two of them clicked their teeth lightly, causing both of them to show pained and funny expressions.

Quan's cheeks were not as bright red as before.

She wiped her lips imperceptibly with her fingertips, and said softly, "Forget it... Kurapika doesn't really understand such things. If I try again, I'll bite my tongue again. It's okay... ..."

Kurapika didn't know whether the other party was disgusting him or comforting him, so he couldn't speak for a while.The words lingered in his throat for a long time, and finally he said to Quan: "Again, try again."

"We are at work!" Quan repeatedly reminded him: "If Mr. Matilda finds out that we are doing such a thing, we will definitely have our salary deducted."

There was concern in her voice, and Kurapika felt her longing for a salary and a job.

He had no choice but to give up such behavior.

Kurapika stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, and said nonchalantly, "I'll go take a look elsewhere."

Quan nodded and said, "Yeah."

Kurapika left the corridor.

After walking out for a long time, he held on to the wall and let out a small sigh of relief.He put his finger on his heart, feeling the rapid heartbeat, and couldn't calm down for a long time.

From Kurapika's position, Izumi could just be seen standing in the corridor.

She was leaning against a white porch, covering her cheeks with her hands, not knowing what she was doing.

Kurapika thought, maybe she was feeling the same as him now.

Facing the glass of the window, he straightened his clothes and pushed back his messy golden hair.Although he was staring at himself reflected in the glass, his consciousness couldn't help but swirl on the green kiss just now—whether it was the soft lips, or the white teeth that he accidentally touched, or the soft touch The retracted, extremely sensitive tip of the tongue looks extremely cute.

Would love to do it again.

At midnight, Matilda's convoy set off.

The bodyguards sat in different vehicles, and Quan was asked to sit in the same car with Jody for personal protection.

Before Quan got into the car, Matilda's butler said something meaningful to her.

"From the very first moment I saw you, I was sure that Mr. Matilda would hire you." The butler smiled meaningfully: "Mr. Matilda is a funny and gentle person, maybe you will have a better job." opportunity."

Quan didn't know what to do, and got into the car with a look of doubt.

Matilda's new home is in another city. The car will arrive at the airport and take Matilda's private airship to another city. Such a journey will probably take a day and a night.

Jody was an extremely gentleman in the car, asking her if she minded before smoking.After a while, I took the initiative to find topics and introduce my collections to her.

It can be seen that Jody, who graduated from a famous university and is well versed in the rules of the upper class game, is not a man who can only grab and plunder. The bodyguards come for a love affair.

Unfortunately, Quan didn't buy it.

This kind of awkward chat made her unable to answer, she chose to remain silent, just smiled.

Seeing that Jody's strike-ups failed repeatedly, the butler sitting in the passenger seat showed a look of eagerness for some reason, as if he was worried that his master would lose face because of the failure of awkward chats.

Embarrassing all the way, the car stopped at the airport.

Seeing Izumi get out of the car, Kurapika quickly asked her in a low voice, "Jodi didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"It's about what I did to Jody." Quan raised his arms, showing muscles that didn't exist at all: "I'm so strong."

"Healthy...?" Kurapika stared at her thin forearm, speechless for a moment.

Quan looked around and found that everyone was concentrating on counting the boxes on the car.So she took advantage of this moment when no one was paying attention, kissed him quickly, and then ran away with slightly red cheeks.

Kurapika froze slightly.

He touched the corner of his mouth slowly, then chuckled.

It was almost dawn when the group boarded Matilda's private airship.

Jody fell asleep for a while, then woke up and continued to be a demon, ringing the bell to let the female bodyguards come in and taste wine together.

Kurapika was a little distracted.

He really wanted to find a chance to try kissing with Ai Jiali again.It's a pity that Jody specified that she should be by her side to protect her.He could only linger outside Jody's room, listening to Jody's laughter, and then looking at the white clouds and blue sky outside the airship with complicated emotions.

Jody's bodyguards worked in shifts, and around one o'clock in the afternoon, Quan's job was replaced by someone else.She was finally free from Jody's awkward chat, and returned to her room on the airship to rest.

"... Love Carrie!"

At the door, she was stopped by Kurapika.

Quan was slightly taken aback, then said awkwardly, "What's the matter?"

"Let's go in and talk about it." Kurapika pushed the door open with a calm and serious face, his face was full of vigilance, as if there was some urgent emergency that needed to be discussed.

His attitude made Quan nervous.

After Kurapika locked the door, she asked, "What happened? Is the situation urgent?"

"No...not." Kurapika turned his head, and after a long silence, he said, "I researched... how to kiss. Let's, try again?"

Quan was speechless and almost laughed out loud.

She didn't expect that Kurapika's serious face was for this matter.

She agreed.

The two sat opposite each other very seriously, as if they were discussing some important matter.

The blond boy approached her slowly, cautiously.

This time, his kiss was very methodical, gentle and appropriate.Such a kiss made her unable to bear the emotion.

Someone walked by outside the room, footsteps were tapped, and the mechanical sound of the airship rising echoed in the corridor.

"Kurapica..." She slid into his arms.

"Do you like it?" The young man's eyes were bright, as if shining a piece of moonlight.

She touched her lips, thinking of the gentle kiss just now, she nodded and whispered, "I like it."

Kurapika put his arms around her, resting his hands on the top of her hair, contented.

The time the two spend together is short, and work will soon separate them.Mr. Jody seemed to deliberately oppose Kurapika, and deliberately assigned the two to different areas of the airship to inspect, and did not allow them to have the same work and rest time.

Often when Kurapika is working, Izumi has to chat with Mr. Jody.

After one shift, she returned to work in Jody's room.It was already six o'clock the next night, and Jody was enjoying a well-cooked dinner on the airship, and he was in a good mood.

"Aijiali, you are here." He wiped his hands on the napkin and hummed happily: "The name Aijiali is too distant, I want to give you a nickname. I will call you Ai Li ? I hope you can stay and work at Matilda's house in the future."

"Mr. Jody is a good employer," she answered politely.

Jody showed satisfaction.

He began to eat slowly, and Quan turned his gaze out of the window, staring at the sky outside the airship.

The sky in the evening is not so clear anymore, and the clouds and night blend into one.Looking down from the airship, you can just see the bright lights of the urban area, as if thousands of pieces of gold are dotted on the spider web, charming and moving.

She was overlooking the view of the city when the phone in her handbag vibrated.

With her back to Jody, she secretly took out her mobile phone, acting like a bad student who was secretly having fun behind her teacher's back.

[When do you go to the bathroom?I will wait for you there. 】

The person who sent the text message was Kurapika.

spring:……

The words on the screen are just one line, without any extra emotion.But Izumi could imagine what the fair face of the blond boy looked like with a hint of anticipation.

She spoke to Jody and got up to go to the bathroom.

She didn't take a few steps, and she saw a slender boy in a black suit in front of the bathroom door.

The light from the corridor fell on his blond hair, like a handful of sunshine.

Kurapika turned around nonchalantly when he heard footsteps.Then, as soon as he reached out his hand, he dragged her into the bathroom, and locked the door behind him.

"Aijiali..."

"I'm here."

The bathroom door trembled slightly.

Kurapika practiced every time there was a need, and his technique was getting better and better.By the time the airship landed, he was already a formidable connoisseur.

Matilda's new home is a distinctive beach house on the edge of the city.Jody suggests having everyone celebrate with a swimsuit party when the mission is done.

When Kurapika heard these words, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought—on the night of his arrival, everyone had to sort out the collection and have a party, and it was a good time for him to get the target.

Quan knew he wanted the eyes from Jody's collection.

She thought about it for a while, and then took advantage of the time when the work was handed over, she said to Kurapika: "I'll get those eyes. Other behaviors may be considered 'stealing', but I can just ask Jody to give those eyes to me." I."

Her initiative surprised Kurapika.

Immediately, he quickly rejected her idea.

"No, how could Jody agree to you..."

"Don't worry." Her answer was decisive: "I will definitely agree to it."

Her determined and confident appearance made Kurapika choke on the words in his throat.

"Don't you know what that guy Jody thinks of you?" His words softened, mixed with a bit of worry: "What if he takes the opportunity to blackmail you? The red eyes are just my goal, Ai Jia Li, you don't have to involve yourself."

Quan was quiet for a while, and then burst into a light smile.

"I'll definitely get it. Because that's what Kurapika wants."

After speaking, she turned and ran away.

Kurapika wanted to reach out to stop her, but only touched the corner of her clothes.

Jody is admiring the re-arranged collections in the newly built basement showcase of the villa.All kinds of human organs are placed in the display cabinet, which is a bit weird under the pale light, but he is smiling and looks very happy.

"Mr. Jody." Quan knocked on the door of the underground exhibition hall, attracting his attention.

"It's Ellie." Jody asked, "What? Missed me?"

Quan didn't know how to reply to this embarrassing chat.

Quan Kuai walked up to him and said softly, "I want to ask Mr. Jody a question."

"Oh?" Jody looked very interested.He raised a wine glass from the small cabinet beside him, handed it to her, and said, "It's fine for me to answer the question, but I hope Ellie drank this glass first. I asked the butler to reserve a good wine for you for 30 years." Yes, don’t let it down.”

The corners of Quan's lips raised slightly, and he took the glass obediently.

As soon as the wine touched the tip of her tongue, she sensed something in the wine.

It is medicine.

I don't know if it's a drug that makes people sleepy or emotional, but it's just dangerous.

Jody doesn't seem like such a reckless person.

Then, maybe the butler, who was always anxious for the master, couldn't stand it any longer, so he should do it for the master himself.

Quan looked as usual, took a few sips, and then put down the wine glass.

Satisfied, Jody asked, "Ai Li, what do you want to ask?"

"Mr. Jody, do you love me?"

"Of course I love you, Ellie. Would you like to be with me?"

"Give me the red eyes, please."

Jody wanted to tease this beautiful woman humorously, implying that she could have red eyes as long as she married him, but his body moved involuntarily, and he picked up a small iron box beside him and handed it over, saying that he was very cooperative Said softly, "Take it, Ellie."

Time is short.

Jody quickly came to his senses.

When he saw the box in Quan's hand, he felt a bit of heartache for a moment.He didn't know how he acted out of his senses just now, but he had already given away, and if he asked the woman to come back, he would inevitably become a laughing stock in the circle.

So Jody endured the pain in his heart and continued to smile generously: "Ai Li, since you got what you wanted, can I get what you want?"

"Sorry, I have a date with my boyfriend tonight." After she said this briskly, she turned and left, leaving Jody in the exhibition hall with a livid face.

|||

Quan walked out of the villa and found a corner by the beach to hide himself.

The medicine in the wine was working, and she didn't know if she could make it through.

If they stayed in the villa, there was no guarantee that Jody would want to take the opportunity to intervene after knowing about it.

She has no interest in Jody, who can only talk awkwardly.

In the evening, the setting sun lay across the sea, reflecting a golden layer of sea waves.A few seabirds flew across the water, uttering low cries.The salty sea breeze blows, blowing her hair flying.

Izumi called Kurapika.

After confirming the location of Quan, he immediately left the villa in a hurry and went to look for Quan.

She hugged the box and sat on a big rock. She lost her shoes somewhere, and her feet dangled, kicking up a small piece of sand in front of her.

"Ai Carrie!"

Hearing Kurapika's shout, Izumi nervously handed over the box in his hand.

"I've checked, and there's nothing wrong with the red eye."

Kurapika was tired from running all the way.He put his hands on his knees and bent over to breathe.Hearing Quan's words, he couldn't wait to take the box, opened it and glanced at it.Immediately, he revealed a look of surprise.

After a brief surprise, Kurapika asked nervously, "How did you get it?!"

Quan propped his forehead, and whispered, "It was exchanged for a glass of wine. But there seems to be something in the wine... I, I'm about to die."

What she said startled Kurapika slightly.

He watched her carefully for a while, his complexion getting worse and worse.

The sun went down and night fell.His blond hair was also messed up by the sea breeze, and the earrings reflected the lights of the villa.

Izumi tugged at his cuff, and whispered distressedly, "Kurapika, help me."

"Icari, I..." Kurapika let go of the box in his hand, a little at a loss: "I don't know what to do."

There was a cry in her voice: "Do whatever you want!"

The blond boy was dumbfounded.

After all, he was young and immature, and he had never seen a girl yelling at him with a crying voice, so he panicked for a while.

Then, he held her palm helplessly, and comforted her with gentle kisses as usual.

He remembered that Aijiali said that her nation had some special traditions.So, at this moment, he asked cautiously: "Aijiali, can I see your shoulders and back...?"

To see her shoulders and back means to be her lover and husband.

This is a very responsible behavior.

Quan's mind went blank.

Not because she remembered that she still had a spider tattoo on her body, but because of Kurapika's strict and responsible words.

This blond boy seemed to be different from anyone else, he was not playing, but was seriously in love.

the more you hope, the harder you fall.

If he loves Ai Jiali too deeply, he will inevitably get hurt in the end.

So, Izumi decided to let reality pat Kurapika on the cheek.

She took the initiative to unbutton the shirt, and pulled the shirt that was used as an inner wear out of the dress skirt.In this way, she only wore the backless suspender dress provided by Matilda's family.

As soon as she let go, the white shirt was blown away by the wind.

Kurapika looked at her, slightly dazed - the long skirt was lifted by the wind, revealing the side of her fair calf.She bowed her head, her long hair was scattered and tangled together by the wind.The night did not hide her beauty, but made her appear even more bewildering.

"Aijiali..."

Kurapika murmured.

In fact, he was a little worried, because Ajiali seemed to have annoyed Mr. Jody.

Just as he was thinking about how Jody would punish her, the girl in front of him slowly turned sideways and lifted her long hair.The waist-length hair was parted and flowed down to the shoulders, revealing the slightly drooping nape of the neck and the large back.

She has a tattoo on her shoulder blade.

It was a black spider crawling on her back with the number four inside.

Kurapika's pupils suddenly narrowed.

--spider!

In an instant, the boy's breathing became tight.He felt his blood throbbing with anger and hatred.His mind has instantly turned blank, and he can only see the tattoo in his eyes.

His fingers tightened little by little, and finally pierced into the palm of his hand, tightly clasping it.

"Aijiali—" he yelled loudly, with a slight tremor in the end: "Are you...a member of the brigade?"

"Yes." She wrapped her arms around her.

"Is this what you've been hiding from me!?" he demanded.

"Yes." She replied again.

Kurapika's arms trembled slightly, and he slowly closed his eyes.

He didn't know what to say or what to do.

Unexpectedly, in the end it was the members of the Phantom Troupe who helped him get back the eyes of his tribe.

what is this?

Suddenly, something lit up in his mind - Hisoka used to be number four of the brigade, and the number behind her was also number four, which meant that she joined the brigade after Hisoka left.

She has nothing to do with the extermination of the Kuruta clan.

This kind of thought made the young man calm down instantly and regained his sanity.

I will ask other questions later, the most urgent thing now is to solve her problem.

"Aijiali, come here." He opened his arms towards her: "I'll help you."

The girl threw herself into his arms.

He leaned over and gave her a gentle kiss, without any anger or hatred, his lips and tongue were intimately intertwined, like a couple immersed in love.

With trembling hands, he clasped her shoulders, with his wrists outward, as if he was afraid of being burned by the fire, not daring to approach her back blade.

"I touched your shoulder and back..."

The sea breeze on the beach kept blowing, and the night was getting darker.

|||

Mr. Jody was furious.

In order to gain the reassurance of the female bodyguard, he generously gave away a collection, but the female bodyguard accepted the gift, but did not pay him much favor.

Not only that, the female bodyguard named Aijiali left in a hurry without waiting for the task to be completed, and only said that she asked her two companions to collect the salary on her behalf, and she had to leave beforehand at home.

After the mission is over, Kurapika leaves Matilda's house and heads to the airport with Melody.No one knew that the pair of fiery red eyes were packed in the suitcase he was carrying.

Standing in front of the information board of the airship taking off, he scanned the flight numbers one by one.Information such as departure location, landing time, and flight name became a meaningless blur in his eyes, unable to enter his mind.

After a long time, he stopped this meaningless behavior and slowly lowered his head against the message board.

The blond hair fell down, half covering his expression, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking right now.

This was his first love. He tenderly handed over his heartbeat, hugs, first kiss and even... all, but what he got in exchange was not as good as he imagined.

Aijiali is no ordinary person.

She was a member of the brigade and his enemy.

But what she did didn't look like Kurapika's enemy.

He thought that Aijiali's tenderness, shyness and emotion did not seem to be fake.Every time he chewed and tasted this memory repeatedly, he could only feel the heart-pounding sweetness.

however……

She is a member of the brigade.

Thinking of the contradictory, ruthless and affectionate brigade members he met in Youkexin, Kurapika couldn't help but sigh, a little confused as to why there are such contradictory people and things in the world.

Perhaps the Phantom Troupe is just such a place to accommodate diverse personalities.

Kurapika turned on the phone and found Aikali's phone number.His fingers hesitated for a long time on the "delete" button, but finally failed to press it.

The airship arrived, and the passengers lined up one after another.

He also walked towards the airship.

Before leaving this city, he thought like this——

Maybe, we can see her again in the future.

Izumi left Kurapika and of course will not go back to continue working with him.

Just then, Hisoka called her.

"Angela~ Long time no see"

"what?"

"I've been playing games with Jie some time ago, and I've left you out in the cold~ Did Il fans ask you to play?"

"what?"

"By the way, a kid named Kurapika asked me if you were the number four of the brigade, and also asked me what kind of person you are."

"what?"

"I said" Hisoka snorted slowly, "you are a bad person."

"...Are you kidding me?"

The author has something to say: Jodi Matilda: I don't want to lose face!

One more Hisoka at the end, and then Gintama×Touken Ranbu~~~
