Chapter 398 Gratitude
With the end of the hunter test, the association made time to officially give Moyu the title of two stars.
The news spread quickly on the hunter website.
So Moyou, who had disappeared for several years, reappeared in people's vision.
The rumors and rumors that Moyou was killed by the Phantom Brigade in revenge, or died at the hands of a certain A-level criminal, are self-defeating.
The heavy news of the two-star title shocked the bounty hunters who paid attention to it.
First, he became the youngest one-star professional hunter in history, and now he suddenly appeared, winning the title of the youngest two-star professional hunter in history.
What do you think next?
Become the youngest three-star professional hunter with great achievements? !
The topics centered on Moyu frequently appeared on various sections of the Hunter website.
The condensation of the fifth emerald bead of the Legend Road is due to this.
The wide circulation of relevant news has also brought Moyou a mountain of entrustment requests.
These commissions come from various countries in the world, and they all hope that Moyou can help them deal with some heinous criminals who have committed crimes in the country.
Originally, these criminals had reward orders hanging on their heads, so bounty hunters who are active all over the world can choose to accept the reward orders independently.
But the existence of the reward order mechanism cannot target all criminals.
There are always a small number of criminals that the vast majority of bounty hunters don't want to provoke, and the bounty hunters who dare to provoke them basically become bones trampled by these criminals.
Some criminals can even get away with high rewards for ten or even twenty years...
The commissions from various countries in the world to Moyou to complete the arrest and killing of criminals are actually offering extra rewards.
Because they were all designated commissions, Doumian had to create a separate commission column for Moyou, and then sorted the mountain-like commissions from various countries into the column.
And considerately arrange all commissions from high to low difficulty, so that good steel can be used wisely.
But Moyou’s reply to the bean noodle man was——
「Depends on the situation」
There is nothing the Dou Mian people can do about it.
The association has just assigned Moyou the task of teaching newcomers, and now Moyou is asked to handle these commissions. After all, there is always a little difficulty.
Somewhere city, airport.
"It's boarding time, Xiaodi."
Listening to the notification sound from the radio, Moyou got up from the chair in the waiting area and greeted Xiaodi who was dozing off.
"oh."
Xiao Di rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up and followed Moyou.
The two boarded the spaceship one after the other, and their destination was a city named Baiying.
According to the information provided by the Hunter Association, Kurapika is currently active around Baiying City, and seems to want to use his hunter license to find an employer that can meet his needs.
It's just that the location of the intermediary place responsible for introducing related work is not easy to find, even if it is Kurapika, it will take a little time.
The purpose of Moyu's trip was to go to Kurapika, and then complete the teaching task assigned by the Hunter Association.
Since Men Qi was also assigned the task of teaching the newcomers the ability to read, only Xiao Di and Mo You went with them.
Soon, the spacecraft lifted off slowly and headed towards Baiying City.
In the cabin, a luxurious single room.
A gasp echoed in every corner of the room.
That was the panting sound of Xiaodi.
At this moment, she took off her coat and only wore a suspender on her upper body.
The white and delicate shoulders and collarbone were exposed to the air, and the sweat slid down her cheeks to her chin, and then slowly dripped onto her chest, sliding deep into her thoracic spine.
"I'm so tired..."
Xiao Di slowly knelt and sat on the ground, leaning forward with his upper body, while panting, he put his hands on the ground to support his exhausted body.
Moyou glanced at Xiao Di with a tired face, and apologized: "Sorry, it's all my fault for raising the tempo too fast. I should take your adaptability into consideration."
"It's not Moyu's fault."
Xiao Di struggled to adjust her breathing, and said weakly, "I'm too stupid."
"No, the difficulty of this skill is too high."
Moyou shook his head slightly.
He's teaching Droplet about the tricks of Jian Bone Plating.
It just didn't take into account the difficulty of learning this skill, as well as Xiao Di's endurance and adaptability in learning, so that Xiao Di's energy and potential energy were exhausted.
Not everyone is golden after all...
For Xiaodi, if he wants to learn the skill of hard bone plating, he can only follow the rules and step by step.
Improving the pace of learning rashly will only be counterproductive.
However, he still hopes that people around him can master this skill as soon as possible.
Three days later.
The spaceship landed in Baiying City.
at the same time.
In a seemingly abandoned city, Kurapika, dressed in Kuruta costume, walks through the dirty and disorderly alleyways.
The dark clouds are surging above the sky, as if a storm is about to come.
The light in the alleyway is particularly gloomy, revealing a gloomy and cold atmosphere.
Kurapika calmly walked through the alleyway scattered with a lot of garbage, and finally stopped in front of a mottled wooden door.
"This is it..."
Kurapika whispered to himself.
This place is an agency that can introduce jobs.
咚咚—
Kurapika raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.
When the knock on the door fell, the wooden door slowly opened and pushed inward.
It's just that Kurapika found that there was no one else behind the wooden door, and at first glance, it didn't look like there was a trap.
Without thinking too much, Kurapika stepped into the room and saw a woman sitting behind a table at a glance.
The woman has short hair, a lot of nose nails and lip nails all over her face, a black tube top on her upper body, and various tattoos on her bare shoulders and arms.
Seeing Kurapika come in, the woman with the nail on her face raised her hand to lean on her cheek, and looked at Kurapika peacefully.
Kurapika closed the wooden door with his backhand, and at the same time glanced at the furnishings in the room.
There are many framed photos hanging on the wall with cracks clearly visible, and there are large and small exhibition cabinets and bookcases full of books near the wall.
This room doesn't look like an agency responsible for introduction work, but more like a collection room.
Kurapika quickly looked away, looked at the woman with the face nailed again, first held the hunter's license in his hand, and then cut straight to the point: "I want to find a job."
It's not needing, but looking for.
The woman with the nail on her face heard the meaning, and her eyes glanced at the hunter license in Kurapika's hand, her face was calm, as if the hunter license was just an ordinary card.
Kurapika noticed the reaction of the woman with the face nailed, paused, and put away the hunter license.
Take out the hunter's license, just to reduce some unnecessary talk.
But now it seems that the hunter's license cannot be a decisive bargaining chip.
"Very few people find it here, but..."
The woman with the nail in the face implicitly affirmed Kurapika's ability, but halfway through the conversation, she raised her index finger and asked Kurapika an inexplicable question:
"Can you see what's on my index finger?"
"Um?"
Kurapika's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the top of the woman's index finger, but there was nothing there.
The woman stared at Kurapika's reaction, so before she got the answer, she knew the answer in advance.
A rookie who just got his hunter license...
Based on this, she made a judgment, and she was also ready to speak directly to dissuade Kurapika.
But before she could speak, Kurapika frowned and said, "Did you read it..."
"oh?"
A strange look flashed in the eyes of the woman with the nail on her face.
This was her first reaction other than calm after Kurapika entered the door.
But even though Kurapika gave the correct answer, she still affirmed the judgment just now.
The young man in front of him does not have the possibility of pretending to be an ordinary person, he really does not have the ability to read.
"You don't know how to read, but you know how to read. It's interesting."
The woman with the nail on her face put away her hands, straightened her upper body, looked at Kurapika with a scrutinizing gaze, and said calmly:
"Although I don't know where you learned about the existence of 'Nian', I'm sorry, but I can't introduce jobs to you now."
"Now?"
Kurapika's eyes moved slightly, and he was not disappointed by what the face-pinned woman said, but instead noticed the key information in the face-pinned woman's words.
It’s just that he didn’t directly mention a certain possibility that comes to mind from the word “now”, and asked straightforwardly: “So… the condition is to learn how to read?”
"Yes."
The woman who nailed her face paused, and said with emotion: "Young man, you are outstanding."
Can detect the key points from the information she inadvertently revealed, and may have deduced some intelligence.
After a few short conversations, the woman with the face nail fully recognized Kurapika's ability.
However, no matter how outstanding the ability is, in her place, it is useless not to know how to read.
Kurapika understood this, clenched his fists slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I will come again."
After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the closed wooden door.
At this moment, someone knocked on the wooden door.
Kurapica subconsciously stopped, and the woman with the nailed face looked at the wooden door following the sound, hooked her fingers without a trace, and the wooden door opened in response.
A gentle and steady male voice came into the room with the sound of the door opening: "No need to come again."
These words were obviously addressed to Kurapika.
Kurapika's face changed, and he put his hands behind his back, looking vigilantly at the half figure that was gradually revealed as the wooden door opened.
The face-nailed woman behind the desk also looked at it, but her reaction was not as intense as Kurapika's, and she seemed particularly calm.
Under the watchful eyes of the two, the figure raised his hand and gently pressed the wooden door, speeding up the opening of the wooden door, and then stepped straight into the room.
"Moyu..."
Seeing the face of the person who came, Kurapika was taken aback, and the vigilance in his eyes was replaced by surprise.
When the woman behind the desk saw Moyu, she not only showed the same astonishment as Kurapika, but also got up reflexively.
"Moyu Isaac, 2-star bounty hunter!"
The woman with the nail on her face looked at Moyou with bright eyes, both surprised and excited.
A reaction like that is like ordinary people suddenly seeing a popular star on the street.
"Hello."
Hearing the woman with the nail on her face call out her name, Moyou nodded politely to greet her.
This is an intermediary agency that introduces jobs specifically for people with abilities. Apart from other things, the single channel and resources should not be underestimated.
It is hard to guarantee that there will be intersections in the future, so it is not a bad thing to leave a good impression first.
Seeing Moyou being so polite, the woman with a nail in the face always felt that there was a big gap between her and the "ruthless person" she imagined.
But this does not hinder her admiration for Moyou.
In her line of work, "ability" has always been the most important thing.
Moyou, who became a two-star bounty hunter at a young age, has undoubtedly the highest weight in her heart.
The woman with the nail on her face controlled her emotions, and said solemnly: "Mr. Moyou, it's an honor to meet you. I wonder what I can do for you in this small place?"
"I'm here to find him."
Seeing that the woman with the nail on his face misunderstood, Moyu raised his finger and pointed at Kurapika, expressing his intention directly.
The woman with the nail on her face nodded and said, "Understood."
Actually, she probably guessed Moyu's intention from Moyu's words "No more coming" and when Kurapika called Moyu's name.
It's just that in front of people like Moyou, the etiquette that should be fulfilled, but you can't lose a single point.
"excuse me."
Moyu smiled at the woman with the face nailed, then looked at Kurapika and said, "Follow me."
After finishing speaking, he turned and left.
Kurapika didn't ask any more questions, and followed quickly.
Inside the room.
The woman with the nail on her face looked thoughtfully at the leaving backs of Moyu and Kurapika.
"You're lucky, boy."
A moment later, the woman with the nail on her face sighed in a low voice.
In the alleyway, there was rain falling, and the sound of thunder could be faintly heard.
"Isn't it a surprise?"
Moyou walked ahead and asked suddenly.
Kurapika looked at Moyu's tall back, and said in a low voice, "A little bit."
After he finished speaking, he paused and asked, "The person in charge of teaching me to read...is that you, Moyou."
Based on his experience and knowledge during the hunter test, combined with the information he perceived from the woman with the nail on his face, Kurapika guessed Moyu's intention.
"right."
Moyu stopped, looked back at Kurapika, and said:
"Actually, the task assigned to me by the association is... well, it doesn't make sense to say these things. In short, from today onwards, I will be responsible for teaching you the ability to read."
"Thanks."
Kurapika pursed his lips.
Moyou said with a smile: "Everyone who passes the hunter test will get a chance to learn the ability to read. This is what you have won with your own ability, so you don't need to thank you."
"Among the candidates in the same class, the person with the best overall performance is Hanzo, and the assignment task you mentioned just now... In fact, the association asked you to be responsible for teaching Hanzo's ability to read at the beginning, right?"
Kurapica looked up at Moyu, and without waiting for Moyu's response, he took a deep breath and said solemnly, "This is why I'm grateful for it."
"Kurapika, the lady at the agency complimented you on your excellence, and I feel the same way."
Moyou's tone revealed a little exclamation.
Immediately after Kurapika was silent, Moyu suddenly asked: "What do you think 'Nian' can bring you?"
"Power, the power that can drag all the desperadoes wandering around the world into hell!"
Kurapika replied without hesitation.
Moyou lowered his eyes slightly when he heard this.
The premise of dragging desperadoes to **** is—
I go to **** first.
Moyou suddenly thought...
Is it really a good thing that he is responsible for teaching Kurapika's ability to read?
