Chapter 237 Koko of Hex Family

Previously, in order to hunt the Swamp People, who were inmates of Fox River Prison, Moses and Pyon went to the Nightless City.

There, Moses encountered Hisoka...

After defeating Hisoka with his Nen ability, Moses went to an underground combat arena located in an abandoned building.

At that time, some of the Swamp People who had escaped from the Fox River Prison were caught by the mafia and brought to the underground combat arena to entertain various upper-class individuals.

In order to eliminate the Swamp People in the underground combat arena and also to shift the blame onto Hisoka, Moses had no reservations and directly sent 3D Hisoka into the arena to clean up.

Ultimately, due to the situation, 3D Hisoka, controlled by Moses, ended up giving a slap to the silver-haired girl in front of him amidst the chaotic battle.

Due to the incident at the underground combat arena, Hisoka was directly included in the list of bounty targets released by Nightless City.

At that time, Moses even felt that the local mafia in Nightless City had quite some power, as they managed to turn Hisoka into a prisoner of Fox River Prison.

Thinking about it now, it's very likely that it was because of that slap.

This is also why Moses recognized the silver-haired girl in front of him.

This silver-haired girl is none other than Miss Koko, the young lady of the Hex Family.

Since Fiona took the initiative to talk to Moses, Koko took a serious look at Moses.

'He appeared to be between 13 and 15 years old, didn't seem to be a Nen user, and aside from being handsome, there was nothing particularly noteworthy about him for the time being.'

'But…'

'Since he has made acquaintance with Fiona, you must be someone special, so there is value in getting acquainted or recruiting him.'

In just a few seconds, Koko had already labeled Moses in her mind.

Moses didn't know what Koko was thinking. He quickly withdrew his gaze and smiled at Fiona.

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"I was the one who didn't expect it."

Fiona's eyes contained a hint of surprise as she exclaimed: "Weren't you at the Heavens Arena? I watched your match there not long ago."

"Well, I just reached ten wins..."

Moses explained calmly: "So I thought of coming here to relax."

"Relax?"

How could Fiona believe Moses's words?

If someone like Moses really wanted to relax, he would never take a week-long airship trip to a place like Yorknew City.

However, Fiona did not directly challenge Moses's statement. She smiled subtly and said: "I was wondering why you suddenly came to Yorknew City. Indeed... appropriate relaxation can relieve stress."

"Then, why are you here?"

Moses was quite curious about the reason why Fiona appears here.

Moreover, he didn't expect Fiona, who was usually serious and even a bit old-fashioned when carrying out missions, to have any dealings with the mafia.

"To make money."

Facing Moses's question, Fiona answered straightforwardly.

Moses was slightly surprised by this.

But Koko, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly burst into laughter.

"Fiona, it's a good thing you're short of money, otherwise, otherwise how could I 'hire' you?"

"I am a Pro Hunter. As long as the comission is within acceptable limits, I have no reason to refuse."

While speaking, Fiona glanced at the four bodyguards behind Koko.

These four bodyguards were all Nen Users, and their strength was above average. They are known as the "Four Corners" of the Hex Family.

In addition to these four Nen Users, Fiona had also seen an old man with strong sword skills before. However, he had died at the hands of an enemy a few months ago, a fact Koko was unwilling to disclose.

Even though the most powerful old man has unfortunately died, Fiona believes that the existence of these 'Four Corners' alone can protect Koko's safety.

But Koko also often issues commissions to the Hunter Association, specifically requesting Fiona for guard duties.

However, every time Fiona accepts the assignment and arrives, she finds that Kokoro is just wandering around during the assignment period, barely doing anything considered 'official business'. At most, she just went to inspect various industries.

Strictly speaking, if she's just doing these things, there's no need to commision her to act as a guard.

Yet Koko continues to spend money incessantly, having Fiona carry out these seemingly meaningless guard assignments.

Of course, Fiona what Kokoro wants from her, but as a Pro Hunter, how could she be willing to offer her loyalty to Mafia Family's young lady?

If it weren't for the rich remuneration for the commission and she was short of money, she would have long sought to break free from Koko's entanglement.

But one thing has to be admitted: Fiona doesn't dislike Koko.

Because in this matter, Koko has never crossed the line and has never shown a strong side in front of her.

Hearing Fiona's official response, Koko felt a little helpless and timely changed the subject:

"Fiona, don't you want to introduce this friend of yours to me?"

"He is Moses."

Fiona's introduction is very brief.

'Without the friend's consent, one cannot reveal too much information about them without authorization.'

'This is one of the rules of friendship.'

Fiona thought to herself.

"…"

Koko looked at Fiona helplessly, then looked at Moses, stretched out her long white right hand, and said with a smile:

"Hello, I am Koko Hex from the Hex Family. Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

Moses lightly shook Koko's hand, but he felt a bit awkward inside.

The casino where he is currently is the property of the mafia heiress in front of him.

Originally, he wanted to let 3D Hisoka handle the distraction to attract Dis Mendeck's attention directly, but he never expected he would meet Koko here.

Moses could almost predict...

If he let 3D Hisoka come to the blackjack area, the mafia heiress in front of him would most likely directly mobilize the on-site security force to capture Hisoka.

That's why he felt awkward.

Moses never imagined that the slap he threw out to escape the fight would have consequences that extended to this moment.

'I can only change the plan a bit.'

Thinking this, Moses temporarily abandoned the idea of ​​having 3D Hisoka come to the blackjack area, and instead thought about secretly moving 3D Hisoka to the nearest restroom.

Since he couldn't act here and lost the opportunity to attract Dis Mendeck's attention, he would just wait for an opportunity to act in the restroom.

If this attempt failed, he, who has always stayed out of the situation, could still wait for another opportunity for Dis Mendeck to leave the casino.

Thinking of this, Moses prepared to let 3D Hisoka be ready to ambush in the nearest restroom, and then wait for Dis Mendeck to go to the restroom.

If things went well…

Moses also doesn't mind finishing off Dis Mendeck in public.

'It's worth a try.'

Moses felt that the plan is feasible.

"Moses, if you don't mind, please let me do my duty as a host."

Seeing Moses showing a pensive expression all of a sudden, Koko smiled and threw out an invitation.

"Okay."

Prompted by a thought, Moses subconsciously responded to the voice that came to his ears.

Fiona next to her hesitated to speak.

She felt that this mafia heiress has developed some thoughts about Moses...
