Family x Appointment

Shakal caught the girl with his right hand before her body touched the ground. There were only the two of them inside the restaurant. The other clients quickly left the building.

Shakal picked up a small bottle of water and poured it on the girl's face. It only took a little while before he woke up.

"Where I am?"

Shakal waited a moment to answer the girl's question.

"You are inside the restaurant, do you remember everything that has happened?"

Chloe was silent. Tears were beginning to flow down from her beautiful face. Shakal tried to calm her down, although she seemed really confused and saddened by her situation.

"I didn't expect even my fiancé to try to steal from me."

"Don't worry about it now, you should go home, they may still try to steal again, so you better go save the item."

Hearing Shakal's words, Chloe was left wondering what she should do.

"Could you help me go home. I will reward you for all your help. "

Shakal accepted the girl's offer and escorted her home. The two took a taxi. The girl lived on the outskirts of the city, in an urbanization for very wealthy people. Shakal was impressed by the large mansions of the urbanization.

Upon reaching the security fences of the urbanization. The girl under the car window and the guard upon seeing her, opened the doors.

After passing the security fence, they continued traveling in the taxi for another ten minutes before reaching the girl's mansion.

The two got out of the car, Shakal paid the taxi driver, and he quickly left the place.

In front of the girl's mansion were two smaller houses where the guards lived. The two guards on night duty immediately recognized Chloe and quickly let her in without asking anything. Also, the two guards were surprised by the presence of a mysterious man, but said nothing.

The girl confirmed that everything was in order, and both she and Shakal entered the main mansion.

Just as he passed through the door, Shakal noticed that the entire building was being watched by a nen user, who was using En throughout the area. Before entering inside, Shakal had already hidden his aura with Zetsu.

Inside the main room, several people were sitting around a huge table. When they saw Chloe, some of them quickly came to greet her. Shakal, he quickly began to observe all of them.

From the alarmism state of the people, it seems that they had already found out what happened in the restaurant. After a few moments of hugs from her family, Chloe introduced Shakal to the other members. She explained that Shakal was the one who saved her and brought her home. She also mentioned that the young man is a professional hunter.

Many of the family members thanked Shakal, telling him to reward him for his help. Chloe's mother even approached him, to thank him more personally.

After a short time, Shakal, a little uncomfortable with people's conversations, decided that it was time to leave. He notice Chloe, who was chatting with her grandmother, that he couldn't stay any longer.

Chloe upon hearing the young man's words, quickly tried to make him stay a little longer, but Shakal insisted that he should leave.

The two agreed to stay at Chloe's house again tomorrow. Shakal said goodbye to all the people and left the mansion.

Shakal walked out of the housing area. When leaving, I take a taxi to your hotel. During the trip, the young man took the opportunity to think about what he should do next.

"How interesting, it seems that I ran into some very big fish. First, I have to gather information about the item the thieves were looking for. That man who ran away doesn't seem to have money problems. It is probably from a very rich family, since if not the Chloe family they would never accept a commitment between them. So the object you are looking for must be of more importance than money. From what I saw inside the Chloe family mansion, at least four of the guards are nen users. I will have to be careful, because that family has the necessary resources to have more guards of that type. "

Upon arriving at the hotel, Shakal went directly to his room. The next morning, just after he had finished exercising, he received a text message on his private mobile.

The strange thing was the number since it did not belong to any of his acquaintances.

[Good morning, I'm Chleo, the girl from yesterday. Thank you very much for your help, really. Would you like to come to our house today?, yesterday my family was very shocked by what happened and they could not thank you as they should. I am waiting for your answer.]

After reading the message, the first thing Shakal thought was the great speed with which they found his private number. The young man supposed that among his troops or perhaps some member of the family it must be professional hunters. Since they have ease in accessing private information. Shakal replied to the message, accepting the girl's offer.

After sending her reply, Chloe quickly wrote back to him, this time telling to him what time he should be coming. The two should met at noon at Chloe's mansion.

He only had four hours to prepare. Shakal decided to go out and buy a suit, to appear more formal.
