Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Average
Given the special nature of the replacement phenomenon…
The seriousness of the situation can be imagined.
Cheadle reported this matter as quickly as possible.
While waiting for a response, she didn't sit idly. She gathered helpers and began to thoroughly investigate any information related to human-shaped scorch marks in recent times.
Because this matter was related to Swamp Man, she even specially called Ging.
However, before making the call, she was mentally prepared that Ging might not answer the phone.
And indeed, Ging did not answer Cheadle's call.
Helpless, Cheadle had could only send a text message to Ging, and then start collecting information related to human-shaped scorch marks.
In fact, after seeing Moses's text message, she had a bad premonition...
Those Swamp People, who looked no different from normal humans, may have spread quietly in the Swardani City.
It is still unknown how the superiors will react after learning about this matter, and how they will prepare to deal with it.
But Cheadle believes that there are two things that must be done as soon as possible.
One is to find the author of Swamp Man, Davidson Donald, and take measures to detain him, questioning and confirming the connection between this person and the Swamp People phenomenon.
The other is, after confirming the correlation, to start from Davidson and find a way to distinguish between normal humans and Swamp People as quickly as possible, as well as dig out more useful information.
'Moses's reminder... was really helpful.'
Cheadle sat in front of the computer, thinking with lingering fear.
If Moses hadn't witnessed the process of Swamp People replacing their original owners and immediately informed her of this discovery, then...
The worst-case scenario would undoubtedly be that Swamp People, relying on the ability to replace the original, silently spread around the world, and they would be unaware of it.
…
Thousands of miles away, in the sky.
Moses glanced at the 'Received!' text message sent by Cheadle, put away his phone, and continued training.
During the subsequent journey, Moses spent most of his time in his room training, only going to the restaurant during meal times.
During this period, he inevitably encountered the family of three who had already become Swamp People.
Moses turned a blind eye to this, and went straight back to his room to continue training after each meal.
Until late at night on the third day, the airship landed at the airport in Spice City.
Moses chose to disembark here.
His original destination was a city called Saka.
Because the wanted criminal Dis, whom he regarded as a hunting target, had committed crimes in Saka City just a few days ago.
However, considering that this route passes through Spice City, he simply disembarked in Spice City, planning to visit Lisha.
If it is convenient, he can also ask Lisha to go to the Hunter Website to issue a request to track Dis's whereabouts.
At any rate, he has 50 million Jenny in the card, so there should be no worries about the reward.
'Let's spend the night at a nearby hotel first.'
The airship landed at the airport at half past two in the morning, and when Moses left the airport, it was almost three in the morning.
At this time, it was naturally not suitable to disturb Lisha, so Moses planned to find a hotel nearby to spend the night.
At this late hour, the streets were quiet, with only few pedestrians.
'If it were close to the city center, it would probably still be lively at this time.'
Moses thought to himself.
Suddenly…
Moses's gaze paused, looking directly at a figure on the street.
'Nen User…'
The reason he noticed this figure immediately was that he saw the flow of Aura above this figure.
That figure also noticed Moses and looked over, but he still walked without any slowing down.
It seemed as if he didn't care at all that there was a Nen User on the street.
Moses noticed this and did not stop, moving forward as usual.
A deserted street with few pedestrians late at night.
Two Nen User coincidentally encountered each other, each going their separate ways, and finally brushed past each other at a distance of about three to four meters at the intersection.
Moses glanced with the corner of his eye.
With the light from the streetlamp, he could clearly see the other person's appearance.
The person appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in casual navy blue attire, with short black hair, fair complexion, and surprisingly, eyes with very little white.
Seeing that the other party's indifferent expression, Moses takes a quick glance and promptly averts his gaze.
The black-haired young man also glances at Moses, then immediately looks ahead without diverting his gaze.
'Average.'
The black-haired young man doesn't pay much attention to Moses, only giving a habitual evaluation in his mind.
He is Illumi Zoldyck. He comes from a well-known assassin family. And he has experienced all kinds of inhuman and cruel training since he was a child.
By the time he turned eighteen this year, he had already completed numerous assassination missions.
For him, judging a person's Nen level is a basic skill. But this kind of judgment is just limited to Nen techniques and the displayed Aura.
Illumi only considers Moses as a ubiquitous and irrelevant ordinary pedestrian, so he didn't pay much attention to him and quickened his pace.
He still has a mission to complete in this city.
Moses also didn't pay much attention to the black-haired young man.
Although there are not many Nen Users in the Hunter x Hunter World, encountering one on the street is not a strange occurrence.
After wandering around the street for a while, Moses finds a seemingly decent hotel and promptly walks in.
On top of a tall building in the distance.
A burly man was observing Moses with a night vision binocular.
"Slurp—"
The man makes a sucking sound as saliva involuntarily flows to the corner of his mouth.
Inside the hotel.
Moses came to the front desk.
The woman in charge of registration is currently sleeping with her head on the table.
Seeing this, Moses lightly taps the table, waking her up.
Although her sleep was disturbed by Moses, the woman's attitude is still very good. She quickly helped Moses to check in.
After receiving the key, Moses thanked her politely, ignored the woman's scrutinizing gaze, and turns to leave, finding his way to room 1116.
Before going to sleep, he summoned 'Picasso' to give him a beating as usual, and then lay on the bed contentedly.
The night is getting darker and darker.
The clock's hour hand already passes four.
Outside the room, in the corridor.
The ceiling light seems worn out, flickering on and off.
A burly man, with a face full of muscles, slowly walked down the corridor across the flickering lights.
His footsteps are remarkably light.
This deliberate action makes his steps almost soundless.
The man arrives at the door of room 1116, takes out a simple gas mask and put it on his face, and then took out a canister resembling insect repellent.
Inserting the slender tube on the canister into the door gap, he slowly squeezes the canister to release the anesthetic gas into the room.
"Baby…"
The man's eyes revealed a wolf-like desire.
He is a severe pedophile.
He likes good-looking boys the most, and although Moses is a bit too old for his taste, he is still the most attractive prey he has ever seen.
He cannot suppress the overwhelming desire surging from within.
'This is going to be a wonderful night,' the man thought.
After a while, the anesthetic gas in the canister was completely released.
The man then took out some lock-picking tools and skillfully unlocked the door.
The room was pitch black, with only a faint light coming in from the window.
The man walked into the room, closing and locking the door behind him.
"Heh, hehe…"
He let out a restrained, excited, and lascivious laughter, eagerly pouncing towards Moses on the bed.
But before he could reach the bed, Moses suddenly sprung up from the bed.
"Crack!"
Moses swiftly moved, and twisted the man's head.
The man's expression froze, and he immediately collapsed to the ground and turned into a corpse.
Snapped!
The man's body that had just been lying on the ground was like a balloon bursting, turning into black, viscous substance that scattered in all directions without warning.
Immediately afterwards, as if being pulled by an invisible force, the black, viscous substance that should have been scattered on the ground covered Moses's body.
Then, as if absorbed by Moses's body, it quickly disappeared.
At the same time.
On the air conditioner unit outside the window.
The real Moses stood on top of the unit, with a look of surprise on his face.
He knew that the unidentified man was Swamp People, but he didn't expect that the Swamp People would turn into a swamp-like black, viscous substance after death.
And it seemed to adhere to the shadow clone's body, seemingly absorbed on the spot...
