Chapter Thirty

　　With less than two days left, Jianmei whereabouts are still missing, so you decide to go all out. Since even Gon has the courage to challenge Hisoka, why can't you?

　　Brace yourself, Carrot Potato!

　　You exchanged opinions with Leorio. They don't agree that you go to Hisoka, but there are 25 candidates in this round of testing, and the resources are very limited. If you don't go to Hisoka to get back the number plate, you must at least Hunt the two candidates including the target. At present, there is not much time left, most of the candidates who have collected full marks will hide, and the chance of finding the prey is too small.

　　"I'd better try..." You looked around uneasily.

　　"That's right! This is the Carrot Potato I know!"

　　Gon applauds your courage, and at the same time, the system prompts that everyone's favorability has increased by 5.

　　Gon, what kind of Carrot Potato do you know... You helplessly think,

　　Next, regardless of whether you like it or not, Gon volunteered to say that he can help you find Hisoka, and Leorio said that he is not in a hurry with his number plate, and we will wait for you to collect the points first.

　　This is obviously to drive ducks to the shelves, and I won't give you a way out!

　　Kurapika and Leorio will act separately from you for the time being, and continue to look for Pozz whereabouts. You regret it in your heart, but you can only follow Gon. Gon said that Hisoka smelled of blood, and that there was a blood-sucking butterfly in this forest, which was particularly sensitive to the smell of blood and would fly to the injured. You complain in your heart that there must be a lot of injured people now, how can you judge which one is Hisoka. But there is always nothing wrong with following the protagonist. After walking along the forest for a while, you will soon find a few blood-sucking butterflies flapping their wings and slowly flying in one direction.

　　"Carrot Potato, do you know what you should do next?" Gon asked you.

　　"...I don't know." You answered honestly.

　　"How about that, come up with a plan!" Gon scolded you with a frown. You thought about the intelligence set for you in the game, and felt that this was really embarrassing for you, so you had to say perfunctorily, "We will act according to circumstances."

　　"Alright! But before approaching Hisoka, you must think about what to do!"

　　You feel that even if you see Hisoka, you may not remember it, just seeing Junji Ito's face makes you want to pee. If you can, you really wish you could avoid the fight with Hisoka, I don't know if he will agree to exchange a number plate with him...

　　I don't know how long you have been running, but you are still thinking about it irritably, Gon suddenly stopped, he stretched out his hand to stop you, and made a "quiet" gesture to you.

　"Hisoka is ahead, Carrot Potato, are you ready?"

　　Gon gave you a hint, you were shocked, thinking how you found it so quickly, you wandered around in this forest for several days and didn't meet many people, so you hurriedly waved your hands and said to Gon: "Wait a minute ,Let me consider..."

　　At least let you prepare yourself mentally, you thought uneasily.　

　　Pushing away the coach who was squeezing beside you, you sneaked away from the bushes and poked your head out. This seems to be the lake where you bathed before, and it still has an impression on you even if you are a little blind.

　　Looking from a distance, there is no trace of Hisoka, you turn around and look at Gon, Gon shook his head at you: "Strange..."

　　"Let me go over to have a look." You said to Gon, seeing that Gon seemed very disturbed, you let him wait for you here, but Gon refused, so you had to take him and the coach along the lake. Go deep.

　　After walking a few meters, passing through a place covered by trees, I suddenly saw a pile of clothes that someone had taken off on the grass not far away.

　　"Whose thing is that?" Gon ran over, your face changed drastically, it was too late to stop him, suddenly there was a "crash" sound from the lake behind you, your shoulders shook, and you turned your head stiffly and slowly past.

　　"Oh, what are you doing here?"

　　A strange and trembling voice rang beside your ears, and a naked clown was grinning strangely at you and smiling at you.

　　Forgive...forgive...! ! !

　　Hisoka takes a bath in the water! You feel like your eyes are going to go blind! Damn! You actually saw Hisoka's [mosaic] that was hidden by the dialog box in the manga! !

　　"Hisso..."

　　Gon's breathing slowed down for an instant, and his expression seemed a little frightened. You're sure he should be really scared by now - and so are you!

　　You staggered back two steps, thinking that this game is still PG18...

　　Hisoka who was standing in the water didn't move, just stared at you with one hand on his hips with a sly smile, you didn't know what Hisoka would do, so you couldn't help tensing up all your muscles, and confronted him. The situation was a bit stalemate, but at this moment, you heard a shy and silly smile from beside you, subconsciously raised your head, and saw the coach staring at Hisoka with admiration, and his face turned red inconceivably.

　　......

　　You don't see anything.

　　"What to do, Carrot Potato..." Gon's hand holding the fishing rod trembled slightly. To this boy, Hisoka without clothes seemed more terrifying. You don't have time to hesitate, you gritted your teeth and looked at Hisoka in the lake, then at the clothes Hisoka had changed under your feet, suddenly a thought occurred to you.

　　"Gon." You called out in a low voice.

　　"...What?"

　　"I figured out a way, wait until you hear my voice, you run with me."

　　"...good."

　　Unexpectedly, Gon answered very happily. That pervert Hisoka was still staring at you with great interest, and you stared at him for a few more seconds, then suddenly grabbed the clothes on the ground and threw them far away with all your strength.

　　"Run away, Gon!"

　　Speaking of you pulling Gon up and running wildly, Hisoka's expression suddenly seemed to be stupid. He seemed to have never thought that you would have such a reaction, and he stood dumbfounded in the lake.

　　Exactly what you think! You expected that no matter how perverted he was, he would not be able to run after you naked, but Gon was also shocked. He is a good boy with integrity and purity, and he cannot agree with your behavior.

　　"Carrot Potato, although Hisoka is a very dangerous person, I think it's a bit..."

　　Gon stared at you puzzledly and asked. You were afraid that your favorability would be lowered, so you hurriedly argued, "He's a perverted murderer. There's nothing wrong with us doing this. Trust me, Gon."

　　"okay."

　　Gon stopped talking, and then you heard a prompt from the system: Gon's favorability +10.

　　But after running a few steps, Gon suddenly grabbed you again and asked aloud, "But what about your number plate? Should we go back and get it back?"

　　...Gon actually noticed this. he's gone bad...

　　Although Hunter's original work is a world where right and wrong, good and evil are not clear, but seeing a good protagonist still questioning what you did one second, and starting to share the same hatred with you in the next minute, and doing bad things together for granted, you feel A lot of pressure.

　　"Don't worry! I've got it back."

　　You took out the number plate you took out of Hisoka's pocket just now, and shook it at Gon.

　　"Ah! I didn't even find out when Carrot Potato were made!" Gon looked at you in surprise, with admiration written all over his face: "It took me a lot of effort to catch poker from Hisoka, carrots Potatoes are awesome!."

　　"Where is that? Didn't Gon do it too?"

　　Being praised so much by Gon, you feel a little proud in your heart, but you don't have the nerve to tell him that you also took Hisoka's other props.

　　You subconsciously touched your bulging pockets, thinking that Hisoka would not mind too much if you lost a deck of cards...

　　After running with Gon for a long time, Hisoka still did not catch up, and you finally breathed a sigh of relief.

　　Now your score is 5 points, and you can pass with one more point (you are worried about Hisoka's revenge, so you dare not take his other number plates, if you only get one, maybe he won't chase you hard), So after thanking Gon for leading the way, you decided to separate temporarily. Gon first helps Leorie find Pezz, and you continue to find any candidate. It doesn't matter whether you have collected full points or not, you still meet here on the last morning.

　　But I don't know if it's because of the spirit possessed or something, after you separated from Gon and the others, you didn't find any candidates.

　　Searching all night and still finding nothing, except for that terrible encounter rate, you haven't encountered anything.

　　As time went by, nothing that should have appeared except for increasing experience and money. There is already a little light in the dark forest, and the time is almost up.

　　It is now 6:15, and the exam deadline is noon on the seventh day. You look at the time displayed by the system and feel more and more uneasy.

　　Trying to mobilize that poor intelligence and thinking about it, you think that the person who collected the full score must have been hiding, and the others will not be careless. Sure enough, it won't work without the help of your companions, you think about it and decide to meet with Gon and the others first.

　　So he returned to the agreed place along the road, but it was empty, and Gon and the others hadn't appeared yet. The forest is quiet in the early morning. You glance around and feel that there is no danger. Whispering that they are late, you push through the bushes and walk over, and suddenly you hear the leaves above your head making a "rustling" sound.

　　In this dark forest, there has been no wind. You don't know if it's intentional by the system or what. Habitually, you thought it was a monster, and subconsciously raised your head to look up. Unexpectedly, you saw an upside-down clown hanging upside down on the branch above your head.

　　The clown's face is painted with oil paint of playing card pattern, and there is a strange smile on his face that you are familiar with. His body swayed slightly with his smile, like a huge pendulum.

　　Of course, he's wearing clothes now.

　　Your eyes widened in shock, not knowing how to react for a while.

　　Hisoka...! ! ! !

　　...is there anything worse in the world right now? You take two steps back, looking at the clown hanging upside down from the tree like a bat, for a moment you don't know how to face this guy.

　　"hi~"

　　The branches continued to shake gently.

　　The clown squints his slender eyes, staring at you with madness and cruelty, but the ending of his tone is unusually high, as if suppressing a kind of manic excitement.

　　"Can I have your number plate, girl?"

　　As he said that, the clown caught two poker cards like a magic trick, and grinned.
