41 Dispute X Finalization X Fifth Person
"Kurapika." Melody looked at the blond boy with a little worry. He stood there like a beautiful sculpture, but his body was shaking slightly. Melody could hear that the sound of his heartbeat was full of confusion and uncertainty.
He did not answer the melody, but lowered his head, then slowly raised his head, and his red eyes, which were once filled with anger and pain, were now covered with confusion.
He didn't say anything, his lips trembling, as if he wanted to confirm something.
Kuroro slowly moved his gaze to the window, his dark eyes looking at the city outside the window.
His telekinesis had been sealed by the chained hands, and he was unable to contact his teammates.
He didn't understand why Pike agreed.
The sky in Youkexin is not completely black at night. The light from the city buildings makes the sky a little brighter. However, there are no people and lights in the unfinished buildings on the outskirts of the city. Only the dim moonlight provides a certain brightness.
"Do you think we will accept this stupid condition?"
Veins on Finks' face bulged with anger, and he stared straight at Pike, the man who had once been his companion.
Just like he said before, he could just go head-to-head with the Chain Hands.
Instead of just hiding here and doing whatever the other party says.
What if the leader dies?
That's easy! Just kill the Chain Hand and get your revenge!
"Tell me the address! I'll go there right now!"
Veins appeared on Finks' neck, and he looked at Pike in front of him with gritted teeth.
Hana was squatting on one side with her hands in her pockets, next to her were Gon and Killua who were tied up tightly with chains.
Everyone present understood the spiders' anxiety, which meant losing the ability to protect themselves and their trusted companions.
No one is stupid enough to gamble on this.
Unlike her somewhat lazy state, Xiaojie's body was tense.
He watched as Finks continued to roar and rage, and watched as Pike refused to back down no matter what.
Until his incomprehension and anger burned in his heart.
Killua glanced at Gon. He knew that Gon was about to lose control. It would be a bit unsafe to let him provoke him like this, so...
Killua loosened his knuckles, ready to break free from the ropes at any time.
"Parker, send the hostage over and we'll help you stop him."
Maggie stood in front of Pike and looked at her former companion. Their differences in opinion had made their positions opposing each other.
"Seriously?" Feitan scoffed.
He had never felt so truly that his companion was an idiot.
Waiting for your opponent to give you a way to survive is the stupidest choice.
You have to bite the opponent's neck viciously and cut the opponent's chest with a sharp knife.
Until the other person can no longer hurt himself.
"You weren't controlled by the Chain Hands when we weren't there."
Feitan thought of a malicious but acceptable reason. He looked at their somewhat gloomy faces, and his mouth under the high collar opened wantonly.
"You really don't understand!"
Xiao Jie finally couldn't bear it anymore, he shouted out loudly, this shout attracted everyone's attention present. Hua Weiwei tensed her body and looked at Xiao Jie's face.
"Why did Pike have to go find Chrollo, and why did Maggie stop him? It was to save your captain. Is this feeling so hard to understand?"
Xiaojie's voice was clearly heard by everyone. What he said was sincere and heartfelt, and everyone really had a moment of recognition for Parker.
"Are you tired of living?" Finks took a step forward angrily. His expression became hideous and distorted because of anger. Xiaojie looked straight at him, and in just a moment, he was hit hard by Finks.
This punch allowed Xiaojie to break free from the chains on his body.
"Hey! My brother means well!" Hua shouted from the side. The guy without eyebrows must have been taking Xiaojie out on himself because he couldn't argue with his companions.
What a rotten person, he was so angry that he took out his anger on the relevant personnel.
Hua Deng stared at Finks with wide eyes.
"Good intentions?" Feitan said sinisterly, "Then let me take it out and take a good look at it."
Hua's expression changed slightly, she pursed her lips and looked at Feitan.
If he dares to attack Xiaojie...
Hua has prepared her skills and is ready to stop Feitan's actions at any time.
"Can you guys please stop making trouble!" Xiaojie's voice was a little hoarse from overusing his voice. "Paknotan is also your companion, isn't he?"
"Oh? Come on over here if you're brave enough."
Finks looked at Xiaojie as if he was a punching bag, and he found a place to vent his anger and resentment.
Xiao Jie, with a serious expression, did not agree and suddenly stuck out his tongue.
“No.”
His sudden reaction stunned Finks. Seeing the unfriendly reactions of the other spiders, Killua immediately loosened the chains on his body and was ready to attack at any time.
"Kurapika is a man of his word..."
When Gon talked about Kurapika, his expression and tone were firm.
Hua sighed helplessly after noticing this. This was completely out of trust in the other person's personal ability and social skills.
It is the firm belief that even if the other party is angry and hateful, he or she will never change the way he or she behaves in the world.
"Even if he was very angry, he wouldn't let his emotions get the better of him and ruthlessly kill everyone. If he had already made an agreement, he wouldn't unilaterally break it and kill the hostages."
His words seemed to confirm that Pike's choice was correct, but Finks didn't think so.
Finks didn't look as angry as before, but Gon and Killua both tensed slightly, and Hana even felt the hairs on her back stand on end, and she shivered slightly.
"Finks."
The largest spider suddenly spoke. He had several scars on his face and sat there calmly.
"Stop it."
This statement sounded unbelievable to Finks, who turned and looked at him with wide eyes.
"Franklin, why even you."
Franklin knew what shocked him, and he thought they might be wrong.
"Knight, what's the worst that could happen?"
"The worst is that the leader was killed by the Chain Hand." The knight began to carefully count the worst possible situations in his opinion.
"Nobunaga and his companions, whose deaths are confirmed by the prophecy, will all die."
"The hostages also escaped."
"I won't let them succeed." Finks' voice no longer had the high pitch it had when he was arguing with Pike. To Hua, this didn't mean he wasn't angry anymore. Even now, the hairs on her back stood up.
Hua clearly realized that this spider would attack them at any time.
"That's why I say you guys don't understand the situation at all."
Franklin's voice was very steady and powerful. He looked at his companions and slowly expressed his understanding.
"The worst-case scenario is that we all die and the Phantom Troupe ceases to exist."
Hua looked at Franklin's face. She didn't think this man was as gentle as he was when he stopped her.
I always feel like something is weird.
"Let Paknotan take them."
"If the commander doesn't come back, we can just kill those who are being controlled and reorganize the brigade."
"Isn't this simple?"
After saying this, Franklin smiled. It wasn't a big smile, but it was the one that made Hua feel the most terrified in this short conversation.
She stared at the other person in a daze, but felt the spider's courage in her heart.
If the previous conversation with Finks and the others had made her understand the spiders' confidence in their absolute strength.
Then the feeling that Franklin gave her was more of a sense of not caring about taking the wrong path.
Hua thought about it and wondered what decision she would make if the same thing happened to her.
Maybe they will be hesitant and only when they know that things have developed to a point where they cannot be avoided will they have the mentality of cutting off one's own arm to change something.
Hua looked at Xiaojie, and seeing his eyebrows and eyes which looked unusually firm because of anger, Hua understood that Xiaojie did not understand what his behavior meant.
That kind of courage, that kind of behavior.
They may not continue to torment Gon and Killua after the incident is over, but they will definitely not let Kurapika go.
Until that time.
Xiaojie will still be involved, but the vengeful Spider will not be as merciful as he is now.
The ringing of the cell phone vibrated in the air, breaking the quiet scene.
Finks picked up the phone and heard the request from the other end. He clicked his tongue and threw the phone to Xiaojie.
The knight who saw this felt extremely distressed about his phone.
Hua looked at Xiaojie and said a few words, then threw the phone at Finks again.
Finks held up his phone in silence for a moment.
"We accept your terms. Pecknotan will come over with three hostages later."
The rain started falling again in Youkexin, dripping. Hua, Xiaojie and the others walked out, and Parker walked behind them, her red high heels making a soft tapping sound.
"Why don't you three run away?"
Parker looked at the three children in front of her with a hint of doubt in her expression. Her gaze shifted to Hua, the weakest of the three.
Is it because of this child?
"If you run away now, I may not be able to catch you, and then your friends can kill the leader to avenge themselves."
"Isn't it?"
Hua looked at Pike, whose face was a little confused and doubtful. It seemed that the previous argument among the spiders still had an impact on her, and she didn't quite trust what was happening.
"Because we are friends, we don't want Kurapika to kill anyone."
Gon's voice was crisp and clear with seriousness as he and Killua continued walking. Hana didn't move as she looked at Pike who seemed to be hesitant.
"As a friend, I would rather the other person be alive than die a martyr." Hua said softly, her voice so low that it was torn into pieces by the sound of rain.
She said as she quickly followed Gon and Killua.
She didn't dare look back at Parker, while Parker's expression became increasingly complicated as he looked at the three children.
The rain still didn't stop, sparse raindrops fell down, like an intermittent song, sending the four people all the way to the airport.
Kurapika confirmed in the airship that there were only four people coming, but he was still worried.
Because if the spiders follow, they will not come out until the last moment.
Now, the fifth person appears.
