Chapter 279: Possibilities
Time passed so slowly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the morning of the next day.
After one night, there was still no news about Uvogin's whereabouts.
At this time, inside the abandoned building where the Phantom Troupe was stationed.
"It's really strange. It's been all night, and there's no news at all."
Shalnark slowly closed the stolen laptop and sighed.
"Even if I log in to the hunter website with a hunter's license, there is still no news about Uvogin."
"If it wasn't the Shadow Beasts who took Uvogin away, then it should be other mafia families."
"Once these people seize Uvogin, it is just for reputation and status."
"Then it is a matter of course to hand over Uvogin to the underworld group or even the Ten Mafia Dons."
"But there is no contact signal to break into the mafia, no explanation about the Phantom Troupe or its target."
Shalnark couldn't understand how the other party could bear it.
Nobunaga, on the side, slowly said: "How much time do we have left? Can we make it in time?"
At this time, he was no longer as frivolous and lazy as usual as he spoke in a deep voice.
"Well, judging by the hatching time of which type of Spotted Leeches…"
Shalnark thought for a while and gave a very un-optimistic answer:
"If Uvogin hadn't been able to drink beer during this period, I'm afraid it would have hatched by now."
The veins on Nobunaga's forehead suddenly bulged.
"So…"
Shizuku looked at the pile of beer cans scattered at Franklin's feet: "These are useless, right?"
"It should be."
Franklin stopped looking at the beer he found.
"Completely confusing motives and ideas…"
Phinks stood next to Feitan, folding his hands on his chest, and lightly smacked the location of his eyebrows.
He really didn't expect that after he just went out for a trip.
Uvogin, who was known as the most destructive person in the Troupe, was kidnapped and disappeared without a trace.
And there is not even the slightest news, as if he has disappeared from the world.
"Asshole…"
Nobunaga gritted his teeth there and firmly held the handle of the sword with one hand.
He turned around suddenly and walked outside.
"Nobunaga, what are you going to do?"
Shalnark immediately shouted to him.
"Go find Uvogin!!"
Nobunaga said without looking back.
"Do you know where he is?!
"Have no idea!!"
Nobunaga kept walking: "But I know that if I just sit here blindly, I will never find Uvogin."
"No matter how many people I have to kill, I just need to find some clues about Uvogin!!"
"Anyone who can chase us to that place must have something to do with mafias."
"As long as I kill the mafias in Yorknew City, I can always find clues about Uvogin…"
This is the stupidest way Nobunaga can think of, and it's also the only solution he can think of.
"Calm down first, Nobunaga."
Machi said calmly from the side: "Let's see what the chief says first."
"How do you want me to calm down in this situation?"
"My intuition tells me that Uvogin should be fine at this moment."
Nobunaga immediately stopped.
"For real?!
He raised his head and really looked at Machi.
"Ah, I'm not going to lie to you with this."
Machi said calmly.
"That's okay."
Nobunaga scratched his hair and stood aside.
Machi's intuition has always been very accurate.
She said Uvogin was fine, so basically, he shouldn't be too worried about Uvogin's current situation.
But the eagerness in Nobunaga's heart has not diminished at all.
"So what do we do next?!"
He couldn't help but look at Chrollo, who gently closed the book in his hand.
The leader of their Phantom Troupe will handle everything in such a critical situation every time.
He gives them correct judgments and choices and lets them continue on like this.
"The person who uses the chain to catch Uvogin is either a Manipulator or Conjurer type."
Chrollo raised his head and faced the many members who were looking towards him.
"Such people tend to have very calm judgment, make decisions before taking action, and have detailed or circumstantial plans."
"So, it is very likely that when he took Uvogin away, it was not impulsive but rather premeditated."
"After the battle between Uvogin and the Shadow Beasts, he took advantage of the key point to take action. This aspect once again proves that there was a premeditated plan."
Chrollo's voice was not loud, but it had enough magnetism and attraction that people couldn't help but listen carefully.
Hearing this, although the others seemed to have nothing strange on the surface, they still nodded in approval.
Nobunaga gritted his teeth again.
This despicable method of taking advantage of someone's danger made him want to tear the other party into pieces.
"Although Uvogin has always been proud of his overwhelming super combat power…"
Chrollo continued to analyze: "But under the circumstances at that time, I'm afraid he didn't have any ability to resist."
"And since the opponent has watched Uvogin's battle for so long, he might have already prepared a method to target Enchacher-type people like him."
"The reason why the other party tried so hard to find the right time to capture Uvogin has two aspects."
"The first one has nothing to do with us. He just wants to get something from the mafias, such as the reward, fame, and status."
"The mafias outside should have started placing bounties on our heads, right?"
Chrollo looked at Shalnark and asked.
"Well, the price of 2 billion Jenny has already been quoted."
Shalnark, who had been paying attention to the outside world, replied: "And it belongs to one per person. This is already the highest price, and there will be almost basically no increase in price."
"So, if it was for money, then the other party would most likely have not yet killed Uvogin and wanted to hand him over to the Ten Mafia Dons."
Chrollo continued to peel off the matter: "In order to restore their reputation, the Ten Mafia Dons will definitely publicize this so that everyone can see the consequences of going against them."
"There is no movement in this regard outside now, so we can rule out the factor of money."
"Then what's left is the status and reputation within the mafia, that is to say…"
Chrollo crossed his hands lightly: "The other party is a group within the mafia."
"And they didn't hand over Uvogin. On the one hand, their family's strength should not be that strong, and they are afraid of leaking it, attracting our attention."
"On the other hand, they still want to sell Uvogin at a good price."
"When the Ten Mafia Dons start to formally pursue us, they will take out Uvogin, then they will definitely be appreciated by the Ten Mafia Dons, and they will rise to the top…"
Chrollo analyzed this and continued to talk about another possibility.
"The second one is independently related to us or to Uvogin."
"And the most common of these connections is…"
