In the past few hours, the two of them have said quite a lot.
But because the man spoke evasively, and the woman could only make muffled noises like "woo woo ah ah gu gu ga ga!"
He listened for hours, and aside from feeling strangely full, he gleaned almost no useful information...
However, from the few words the other party spoke, he still gleaned an important piece of information—
Tomorrow they will publicly execute the man who peels away the skin.
Kuroro's gaze was deep; this move had truly struck at his sore spot.
The person who came up with this idea is undoubtedly an extremely difficult person to deal with.
Honestly, he didn't want to deal with someone like that at all. Winning would bring no benefit, and losing would mean losing everything.
He's a thief, not a martial artist or a schemer, so why would he challenge such a powerful figure?
But if he were to leave now with the jewels, he would undoubtedly be the biggest winner, and... the biggest loser.
There's no turning back now. We must rescue the Ripper tomorrow; his importance even surpasses that of the gem!
Kuroro weighed the pros and cons and made a decisive choice, a decision that a leader must make.
Now, even someone as mentally resilient as Kuroro can no longer maintain the confidence he had when he arrived.
The person who sets such a trap for him must have made all the necessary preparations for his arrival.
'The worst-case scenario...'
Kuroro, who always liked to use traps to deal with others, now felt the same way being used against him.
I have no way to express my suffering...
Kuroro, constantly reflecting on himself, silently waited for the cooldown of his teleportation to end. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared into the toilet.
Not long after, Kuroro appeared outside a public restroom outside the hospital.
This was the meeting place he and Kubi had agreed upon long ago.
As soon as he entered the restroom, he saw the unidentified creature in the corner.
Kuroro frowned, used [Condensation] and [En] to survey his surroundings, and after confirming there were no ambushes, stepped forward and said:
"Kubi?"
Upon hearing Kuroro's words, Kobi looked up as if waking from a dream, and stammered:
"Commander, Commander... Xiao Di is dead..."
"..."
Kuroro was silent for a moment. Although he had expected it, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
That child always listened to him...
Do you know who killed him?
The Phantom Troupe's rule is that whoever kills a member must either join the troupe or be hunted down to death.
Kubi hesitated and said:
"I don't know. Number 4 told me that Xiao Di died. He said it was... suicide?"
Kuroro's expression remained unchanged; he had roughly guessed what had happened.
It's likely that the bomb he gave Xiaodi didn't kill the enemy but instead killed himself, and that Number 4 just happened to witness the scene.
'I'll ask him what happened next time I see him.'
One problem after another, Kuroro now has one more thing to do...
Chapter 111 The Gem is Fake! × Dia's Killing Intent
"call--"
Kido let out a long breath, put down the scalpel in her hand, and looked up at Dia, who was still silently transmitting ripples.
This was the final surgery.
Thus, Dia and her mission came to an end.
It took nearly three days and three nights, but all the efforts were not in vain.
'In this way, the matter has gained support...'
Qi Duo pondered to herself that she was not participating in this special mission just for the huge reward, but to prepare for an even bigger event in December.
She hadn't told Dia about this, though she wouldn't hide it from him if he asked.
But after much consideration, she decided not to tell him.
The reason is simple: if he told Diya, that matter would undoubtedly drag him into another quagmire, a quagmire of hers.
Dia is a qualified hunter now. He's not a little kid who needs a teacher to follow him around all the time. He also needs to have his own adventures.
'I can't... bother him anymore...'
Qi Duo lowered her head, concealing the thoughts in her eyes. Not good at lying, this was the only way she could fool them.
In contrast, Dia was much better at it.
At this moment, while plotting to steal the gem, he not only appeared calm but also had time to help Qi Duo clean up the patient's heart that had been replaced.
It was already close to 6:30. In about an hour, Vincent would return from East Lake Prison to take over the [Flawless Sage].
At that time, he will find an opportunity to steal the gem using "The World" and make Hisoka take the blame.
He already had a perfect plan on how to do it.
Each of them had their own thoughts, but they still managed to pack everything up quickly, including the biological tank containing three internal organs.
Inside, there is also the culprit behind this whole incident, a mysterious long nail that can secrete [black fluid].
Kido plans to take it back to the association and hand it over to hunters who are skilled at identifying these dangerous items so that they can study it.
Time flies by almost instantly.
As the two walked out of the makeshift hospital, they saw the refined Vincent already standing straight at the entrance of the parking lot, waiting for their arrival.
Upon seeing the two, Vincent immediately greeted them politely.
"Good morning, Mr. Dia, Miss Qiduo."
"I have received your previous message. I am very sorry for the delay in getting here. It was really impolite."
As he spoke, Vincent lowered his lizard head humbly.
Seeing this, Diya spoke up:
"No need for formalities, Mr. Vincent, please accept the jewels now."
As she spoke, Diya handed over a box she was holding.
Without a word, Vincent reached out, took the box, and opened it.
The crimson [Flawless Sage] instantly released a mesmerizing halo under the sun; its translucent color highlighted its unparalleled value, and even the moment it vanished was breathtakingly beautiful…
Wait, disappeared?
Vincent's eyes widened suddenly. Right before his eyes, the gem called "Flawless Sage" vanished like a bubble under the sun!
Upon seeing this, Diya's pupils shrank instantly, and she couldn't believe it:
'Where's the jewel? Was it stolen?'
Without hesitation, Diya unleashed a powerful aura, instantly enveloping the surrounding 70-meter area with a massive circle, while the ripple radar beneath her feet began to unleash its fury.
Sure enough, there was someone hiding behind the west wall, and it even seemed like he was about to climb up!
Diya flashed forward and decisively rushed towards the wall, stepping forward with her right leg, her left fist flashing with golden light, ready to strike!
But the next moment, Diya, who was about to deliver a heavy punch to the scoundrel hiding in the corner, suddenly froze, a familiar feeling welling up in her heart...
Sure enough, the next moment, a strange yet familiar face slowly peeked out from behind the wall, squinted at Dia who was so close, and said with a smile:
"Yo, good morning."
It's Hisoka...
Disappointed, Dia lowered his fist; the other party clearly didn't have the ability to steal the gem right under his nose.
'So what exactly happened? What kind of ability could steal a gem from such a distance?'
That doesn't make sense.
Vincent's voice came from behind:
"Mr. Dia, what happened? The jewels have been stolen!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Hisoka, who seemed completely unfazed, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked:
"Sir, are you joking?"
"No, I just came to play with this Dia."
Hisoka sat atop the wall with a nonchalant tone, completely ignoring the dangerous signals emanating from Vincent.
Vincent looked at Dia and saw him nod silently, so he withdrew his murderous aura.
More questions followed.
How did the gem disappear? Who stole it? Where is it now?
Dia frowned, completely baffled.
Meanwhile, Hisoka watched everything in the arena with great interest. Combining what the lizard had said earlier with what he had encountered outside the hospital yesterday, he suddenly had a guess.
He spoke casually:
"Since you have something to do, Dia, I'll go find Kubi now. Goodbye~"
After saying that, he jumped off the wall and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Qi Duo frowned from a short distance away. The other person's tone and voice sounded somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite place them.
