It would take a day for the spaceship to return home. Kusuo Saiki looked up and thought about who he needed to say goodbye to.

His family can stay here for now, and besides that, there are other people he knows...

Starting from a very young age, the housekeeper? Perhaps she could also be with the family later on.

Then one year, on a certain outing, um, Hisoka... what a joke, that guy didn't need to say goodbye.

Further on, what about Kim and Kate? They've already said goodbye to the people of Greed Island, which is essentially saying goodbye to Kim. As for Kate, their relationship isn't that close yet.

Kusuo Saiki gradually fell silent, lowering his head to count the people he had met in the Hunter world. He realized that, probably, possibly, maybe, should, it seemed, there was no one besides Zoldyck and the butler who needed to be said goodbye to.

In the end, he still has to face the boss. Even he hasn't figured out how to confront and explain himself. Of course, he's come up with countless ways to tell the truth or lie, but which one would be the better outcome for both of them?

He knew that even if he faked his death, apart from his brothers' families and the housekeeper, they would be able to get over the grief quickly. They were a family of assassins, and the elders, in particular, had long been aware that anyone could suddenly leave one day.

He never considered that deception was bad—he had lied too many times to hide his superpowers.

From his perspective, deception is a more convenient option for both sides. It's not good for Saiki Kusuo to know that there are other worlds beyond his own, as he won't be coming back.

In particular, Alluka can send him back to his original world. Please, this is like breaking the dimensional barrier. What if a future scenario occurs where the Hunter world invades other worlds? They are generally more technologically advanced than humans in the technological timeline, and their morals are completely different!

Kusuo Saiki remained silent, pondering for a long time. He decided to tell his family, albeit in a semi-deceptive way, that he was going to the Dark Continent alone.

"Let's settle on that." Kusuo Saiki took a step forward.

However, at this moment he still thought of a place and a person.

They've known each other for quite some time now, haven't they?

What's the Phantom Troupe like now? Are they all wiped out? Should we go to the prison to look for them?

Kusuo Saiki hadn't paid much attention to this villainous group over the past year, which was to be expected. Aside from a few occasional business dealings and unavoidable chance encounters, they would never have any interaction.

Kurapika knew what he was going to do. Since sealing only the leader wouldn't stop the Phantom Troupe's advance, he would bind all the members' legs and seal their Nen, causing the organization to disintegrate on its own. Then, he would imprison them and advertise it to the world, letting all those who admired the Phantom Troupe know that justice can prevail.

The Phantom Troupe is already elusive, making it especially difficult for Kusuo Saiki to find them now.

If he didn't have a mobile phone number.

On his phone, which had few contacts, Kusuo Saiki pressed the call button.

"Moshi Moshi?" The knight quickly answered the phone.

Kusuo Saiki teleported instantly.

Chapter 138 Teleportation*Teleportation*

The swordsman had bright blond hair and wore a white shirt. He had a phone tucked between his neck and shoulder, and his hands were fastening the top and bottom buttons of his shirt.

Her clear, emerald-green eyes paused slightly upon seeing Saiki Kusuo, but she quickly began to ponder.

There were other people inside. Kusuo Saiki looked towards the window. The curtains were tightly drawn, and the wardrobe door was half-open, perfectly concealing the person's body.

The man was bent over, searching for clothes in the closet, a tie dangling from his mouth, a suit jacket draped over his arm. His bent-over posture exposed his waist from the closet door, revealing a large spider tattoo crawling across his waist, with a clear "0" on the spider's abdomen.

"What did they say on the phone, Chrollo?" Kuroro asked, assuming Chrollo had finished his call since he didn't hear a reply.

"No... Commander, look who's here!"

"Hmm?" Before Kuroro looked up, his first thought was Hisoka.

Upon meeting the person, they couldn't hide their surprise.

"What brings the introverted young master of the Zoldyck family here? Why has he come to Meteor City?"

Kusuo Saiki: ...

You wouldn't know if I didn't tell you, it turns out it's in Meteor City.

In just a few seconds, he could tell from his thoughts that the two were about to leave.

He went out to attend the Meteor City Elders Election Conference.

They were voters, each representing the people of Meteor City from one of the two districts.

In addition, Phinks, dressed as a pharaoh, was already standing at the entrance; he was also one of the representatives.

Finks: "Wow, I have to say, those two are way too concerned about their clothes. If we could have changed clothes much faster, we would have been out by now."

Feitan: "Maybe they're in the bathroom. Let's wait a bit."

"Wait a minute, Qi Mu."

In the short time it took for Kusuo Saiki to look away, Kuroro had already put on the suit he was holding.

"You must have something to tell me, right? Do you need to talk to me alone?"

"A simple chat will do, Chrollo. Tell Phinks and the others I'll be a little late." Kuroro reached out his hand to Kusuo Saiki.

Whose ability is teleportation?

Kusuo Saiki raised his hand and touched his arm, instantly teleporting everyone to Kukuroku Mountain.

Meteor City is such a dangerous place, it's best to avoid it if possible.

Winter had already begun to fall on Kukuroku Mountain, and when they arrived, a light, clear snow was falling from the sky. The snowflakes settled on the leaves, leaving a white residue, and Kusuo Saiki and Chrollo hid in the shade of the trees.

He just randomly picked a spot, the deserted mountainside of Kukuroku Mountain.

"I thought you were going to take me to a place like a coffee shop, but this is..."

So this is what Kukuroo Mountain is like. That big gate on top is their home? Chrollo surveyed the surrounding scenery again and said, "So, what is it you want to tell me?"

Kusuo Saiki shifted his gaze and remained silent for a moment. It was really hard to say that he was leaving. It would be too sentimental to say that. In the end, the only people he should say goodbye to were his family.

But since they had already brought the people over, Kusuo Saiki sighed.

I don't know why I mentioned Alluka.

Kuroro stood with his hands behind his back, his impeccably tailored suit adding to his air of authority as he pondered. He said, "Leaving where? Kukuroo Mountain? And where did you go? People always have to take risks. You wanted to break with your family, so why did you say goodbye to me? The world is so big, perhaps we'll meet again someday."

Kusuo Saiki looked at Kuroro.

Kuroro covered his mouth in thought, though he didn't say it aloud, his thoughts were already conveyed to Kusuo Saiki.

Knowing that Kusuo Saiki could hear him, Kuroro blinked his large black eyes, looking slightly innocent.

He said, "Since you're not going to tell me why, I won't ask. Anyway, it's goodbye forever, right? I understand."

His answer was brief, and his acceptance of Saiki Kusuo's departure was very lukewarm.

In Meteor City, many people leave without saying goodbye; they prefer to wait for the outcome to appear rather than know it in advance.

Kusuo Saiki completed a task and reached out, but Kuroro dodged it.

"Huh? Is this how you say goodbye?"

Kuroro couldn't hide his smile as he scratched his head: "Saiki is clearly a doctor, and he can see through others most of the time, yet he himself is very naive. How did such a contradictory personality come about?"

I'm not sure if this person is talking badly about me.

"You're oversimplifying interpersonal relationships. Humans are complex beings; at the very least, you should respect us."

“Very arrogant. Since you’ve come here specifically to say goodbye, you should at least put in some effort. If I’m not mistaken, you also need to say goodbye to the Zoldyck family, right? If not, then it’s not a real departure, and you had no reason to come to me at all.”

Why does this person always try to guess other things?

"Looks like I guessed right."

Tsk. I clearly had no expression on my face. Do Nen users have an extra eye?

Returning to the topic, Kuroro asked, "So, how are you going to explain your departure to your family? Knowing where you're going should allow them to give you better advice, hmm... don't I seem like someone who can keep a secret?"

Kusuo Saiki crossed his arms and suddenly thought, since he already knows so much and has never revealed it.

He looked at Kuroro again and thought it wasn't impossible to say.

At the Meteor City Elder Selection Conference, representatives from various districts arrived one after another, but the leader of the Spiders was nowhere to be seen.

"Swordsman, do you know where your Kuroro has gone?" the elder asked.

"Hmm... he took a little longer to change clothes." That was all the knight could say, while inwardly complaining.

“That’s our commander, everyone please wait a little longer,” said the tall and composed Phinks.

Kuroro arrived late, entering with her hands behind her back and a smile on her face: "Sorry I'm late. I hope I didn't keep you all waiting too long? We can start now."

Kuroro walked straight to his front-row seat. The elders didn't say much, and with a strike of a gavel, the meeting officially began.

The knight sent a message to Kuroro on his phone: "Captain, where did you go?"

Kuroro: Giving advice? Shh. The meeting has already begun.

Then Kuroro put down his phone and began to seriously consider who among the candidates was suitable to serve as an elder. They had been traveling all year and rarely returned home, so they knew nothing about the candidates. He had to listen carefully to their self-introductions.

Kukulu Mountain, inside the main residence.

Everyone in his family knew that Kusuo Saiki was about to make a wish to Alluka, and after he returned home first, they inquired about it to varying degrees.

However, all of Saiki Kusuo's attempts were seen through by his telepathy.

"Little Nanxiong~ It's been so long, have you missed your mom?"

As he turned around, another person blocked his way. Zi Po Nian said, "Good afternoon, young master. We have prepared afternoon tea, including your favorite devil pudding."

It would be even better if you could make coffee pudding sometime soon. Is it absolutely necessary to add poison?

The Zipo Nian pass was very difficult, and Saiki Kusuo struggled with the decision for a long time.

No, you can't sit down there. Dad's already prepared to sit down across from you. Absolutely not.

Kusuo Saiki returned to his room, a place he hadn't seen in a long time, the detached house where he had lived for over 10 years. He would soon have to say goodbye to it.

The house was spotless, especially since they knew when he would be returning; every room, inside and out, had been thoroughly cleaned. Xiao Xiang, the housekeeper, had been with him since shortly after his birth; she was practically the only image that came to mind when he thought of her.

"Young master, the hot water in the bathtub has been prepared for you."

Although Xiao Xiang had been bribed by Illumi many years ago, or rather, she was completely Illumi's subordinate.

Kusuo Saiki walked straight back to his room and pushed open the 200-kilogram door.

But Illumi was actually in the room.

This is what it means when plans can't keep up with changes.

"Hey, Xiaonan." Illumi greeted him.
