Chapter 77 The Importance of Team

The news about Dis Mendeck clarified Moses's objective.

However, at this moment, he just wanted to quickly have a showdown with Biscuit, to verify the results of his training over the past month and to understand his approximate level.

He took out his phone and dialed Biscuit's number, only to hear the notification tone that the other party's phone was turned off.

"This…"

Moses felt somewhat disappointed.

Recalling Biscuit's despondent look, Moses felt that today might not be the day for a showdown.

"I'm hungry."

Looking up at the various neon lights on the street, Moses decided to call Sanbica.

He is very hungry now, but he has no money.

After a moment, the call connected.

"Hello."

Sanbica's highly recognizable and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Sanbica."

Moses held the phone to his ear, gazing ahead. The dazzling lights of the prosperous city reflected in his eyes as he said: "I am Moses, do you still remember me?"

"Ah."

Hearing Moses's words, Sanbica first exclaimed softly, then in a cheerful tone, she said: "Moses, you finally bought a phone."

"What?"

Moses was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Sanbica meant.

He had no idea that Sanbica, this silly girl, firmly believed his statement of 'I'll contact you once I buy a phone.'

Not delving into it further, Moses straightforwardly brought up the matter of remuneration.

"Well, last time when I escorted you to Swardani City, I think it's time to settle the payment."

"Sure, alright."

Sanbica breathed a sigh of relief, then said softly: "You only took my number at that time, but you never contacted me after that, which made me a little uneasy."

"Because various things happened, so…"

Moses said casually.

There's no way he could say that he and Biscuit stayed in the hotel room for a full month, isolated from the world, right?

However, from Sanbica's words, he could tell that Sanbica was the type who would feel uncomfortable if she didn't return someone's money even for a day after borrowing it.

Typical of someone considerate of others.

Moses felt that this likable and capable girl, with such a personality, was worth getting to know better.

Mainly because, in the world of Hunter x Hunter, where 'strength in numbers' was crucial, a lone individual wouldn't get far.

Even someone with top-tier talent like Ging needed the cooperation of various talents on his journey to 'find what he desired'.

Hence, while enjoying his journey, Ging will actively seek to connect with various 'like-minded' people, and at the same time, he treated everyone equally, regardless of whether they were Nen Users or not.

In fact, Ging has made close friends with elite talents from all walks of life, who are not Nen Users, and they are still providing him with continuous assistance to this day.

This demonstrated the importance of a "team" in the Hunter x Hunter World.

Of course, existence like Don Freecss is a special case among special cases.

With this understanding, Moses never had the intention of being a lone wolf.

"Well, I understand."

Sanbica didn't ask Moses why he took a month to buy a phone and redirected the conversation back to business: "About the payment..."

"Let's discuss it when we meet."

"Okay, then Moses, where are you now?"

"Wait a minute, let me check."

Moses quickly scanned the surroundings and noticed a shop two meters away. The name of the store 'Send You Off' was written on the light sign above.

'What kind of shop was this?'

'Funeral services?'

"…"

After a brief silence, Mosesu reported his location to Sanbica: "I'm in front of a shop called 'Send You Off'."

"Oh, I know that place. I'll be right over."

This seemingly unique shop quickly caught Sanbica's attention, allowing her to pinpoint the specific location.

"Okay."

Moses responded.

The call is then hung up.

Moses stood there, waiting for Sanbica to arrive.

Half an hour later, Sanbica reached Moses's location.

She was dressed as 'modestly' as ever, with only her beautiful black eyes visible.

"Moses…"

She trotted up to Moses and habitually apologized: "Sorry for making you wait for so long."

"It's fine."

Moses waved his hand.

Though they hadn't spent much time together, he had gotten used to some of Sanbica's behaviors.

Looking at Moses, Sanbica said softly: "We didn't agree on the payment amount at the beginning, so... Moses, just state a figure, and then we can discuss whether it should be transferred or in cash."

Afraid of wasting Moses's time, Sanbica took the initiative to bring up the matter of compensation as soon as they met.

"There's no need to rush about that. Have you eaten?"

Moses didn't respond to Sanbica's question and asked instead.

Sanbica was slightly taken aback and shook her head, "Not yet."

Due to the nature of her work, sometimes she had to spend an entire day in the research lab, irregularly missing meals and often going a whole day without eating.

Moses then suggested: "Let's find a place to eat first."

He was feeling even hungrier now.

Perhaps it was due to growth spurt or the intensive training of the past month, but Moses found himself getting hungry easily, and his appetite had grown a lot compared to before.

"Um."

Sanbica did not refuse.

Moses immediately spotted a decent-looking restaurant on the street. After entering, he headed straight to a private room, and ordered enough food for ten people.

Soon, they were satiated, and Moses felt much better.

"Escorting you to Swardani City wasn't much trouble, so just give me whatever you think is appropriate."

After the meal, Moses left the matter of payment amount to Sanbica.

He took the initiative to accept the commission at that time, on one hand, he saw that Lisha wanted to help Sanbica, but was unable to do anything. And on the other hand, he wanted to fight more Nen Users.

In the end, all they did during the escort mission was shoot down an armed helicopter. Apart from that, there were no other encounters, making the mission seem too easy.

Moses felt that the difficulty of the commission was too low and he was also unsure about the market rate, so he left the amount to Sanbica.

"Okay."

Hearing Moses's words, Sanbica, without much thought, said: "Is fifty million Jenny okay?"

This amount represented her account balance.

Obviously, her thoughts were entirely different from Moses's.

She didn't consider the difficulty of the escort mission. She simply believed that the mission played a significant role in the 'G2' incident. Therefore, she intended to use all the money in her account as compensation.

"Okay."

Moses didn't know that the number said by the silly girl in front of him was her entire account balance, and just nodded in agreement.

Relieved to see Moses accepting the amount she mentioned, Sanbica took out a bank card and pushed it towards Moses, and said softly:

"The money is in the card. I've already set it up for no-password withdrawals. If you want to set a password, you can do it at a nearby ATM."

"It's really convenient."

Moses glanced at his bank card and casually asked: "How is the G2 situation?"

"The association submitted a report to the United States of Saherta, clarifying the interests involved. Subsequently, the United States of Saherta intervened, easily resolved the matter, and began to reevaluate the regulations related to the legalization of G-Drugs."

Sanbica with her head down, spoke in a calm tone: "However, despite the successful crackdown operation, there is still a portion of G2 flowing into the channels of the underworld."

"So it's like that…"

Moses nodded slightly when he heard this.

He ​​thought G2 is a good thing, but its harmful effects cannot be underestimated.

"By the way, do you need me to give you Biscuit's contact number? You probably want to contact Biscuit quickly and resolve the remuneration issue, right."

Thinking that Sanbica would be worried about not being able to pay the reward quickly, Moses asked her thoughtfully before he was about to leave.

"Ah…"

Hearing this, Sanbica's eyes slowly widened.

She forgot that Moses and Biscuit were not a team that jointly accepted the commission, but accepted her commission separately.

In other words, the remuneration must also be settled separately. However...

She bit her lip, looking at the bank card in front of Moses, feeling quite distressed.

That card contains her entire fortune...

"What's wrong?"

Sanbica's strange reaction once again puzzled Moses.
