Starting as an inventor from Hunter x Hunter

"He should be the most pitiful guy tonight."

Feitan calmly revealed the final fate of the tycoon who cared about the future of children.

Thus, the Phantom Troupe's first operation came to an end.

Ooh drip~ Ooh drip~

As the red flash emitted a whistling sound, sharp and urgent warnings began to ring out under the cover of night.

The Phantom Troupe members had already left under the cover of night.

The next day, an explosive piece of news swept through the entire city of Youkexin.

Then, undeterred, it surged towards the entire world, becoming a wave that engulfed every corner.

[The Future of Children] The chairman of the foundation, Lisnos, was murdered in his private office in his office building.

And it wasn't just him; his entire group of bodyguards were also murdered there.

Chapter 109 was suppressed?! Meteor City's move!! Meteor City's own way of handling things~!

This was an extremely heinous and horrific murder!

When the police arrived and conducted a preliminary investigation, the result they gave caused an uproar around the world.

The number of deaths and the scale of the commotion were simply too great to conceal.

This isn't the gangland unrest that happened later in the Yorknew City arc.

Since those who died were all gangsters, naturally no one else would say anything.

But here, the one who died was a world-renowned philanthropist.

And if the philanthropist is someone who specifically cares about children, then the problem and the situation become much more serious.

Many members of the public have publicly called for the murderer to be caught and severely punished.

Even more emotionally charged individuals were there, tearfully supporting and condemning Lennox:

"He's just a father who lost his son. He just wanted to take care of children all over the world. What did he do wrong?!"

"Does this mean that good people should be bullied and treated like this?!"

"Mr. Linos was already attacked once in the Kakin Empire, and now there's another one?!"

"Last time, he lost his dearest child; this time, he lost his life!!"

"And we have lost such a great philanthropist!!!"

"Those bastards, what kind of bandits and villains are they? They launched an attack before, and now they're doing it again?!"

"Are they all heartless killers?! What kind of deep-seated hatred do they have for Mr. Linos?!"

"This must be thoroughly investigated! Thoroughly investigated!!"

Public opinion from the outside world was like a tidal wave, and the shouts almost drowned out the police.

Especially those responsible for this incident.

They are very empathetic to the feelings of those outside the community.

Even at the beginning, they were all extremely indignant and determined to solve this case.

But...

Just after they began searching the primary crime scene.

They also discovered the secret chamber of Narisnos.

Well, before Mog left, he made sure to present this secret room to these newcomers.

The horrific scenes that unfolded there were like a bucket of ice water poured over the heads of the investigators.

The biting coldness traveled straight up from their tailbone, directly impacting their foreheads.

This scene, resembling a living hell, shocked everyone who witnessed it.

Ugh~~~

Immediately after seeing this, many people turned around and vomited.

Even the leader of this incident, who has seen many storms, was taken aback by what he saw.

His face was extremely pale, and his body was trembling with physical discomfort.

This was clearly not caused by the bandits who came to kill Lisnos.

At least, such a secret room exists in Linos's room.

It couldn't have been done by an outsider.

Then there is only...

"Is this person, who appears to be a great philanthropist on the surface, actually a psychologically twisted, deranged madman?!"

Once this thought began to surface in the minds of those investigating the case, there was no going back.

This is especially true for some young men, as it represents a collapse of their worldview.

"Those guys who seem so virtuous and upright on the surface are actually like this in private..."

Is this world all so fake and hypocritical?!

Many people remained silent, their scalps tingling with fear.

The leader in charge of this matter was also extremely stressed.

This was a very serious matter, so he had no choice but to report it to higher-level officials.

Clearly, this is no longer a simple, superficial attack.

On the contrary, it is quite possible that those people came seeking revenge.

As for the purpose of seeking revenge...

You can pretty much tell by looking at that secret room.

Not to mention the most obvious sentence on the wall.

"We don't reject anything, but don't try to take anything away from us!"

The statement "not rejecting anything" should easily find a corresponding special group.

Or rather, since the other party left such a message.

That means they had no intention of hiding anything at all.

However, this makes things incredibly complicated.

This is beyond the scope of their limited investigation capabilities.

They immediately reported the situation to the authorities.

Then, the feedback received was quite subtle...

Are there any contact records, invoices, or similar documents?

When the leader in charge of this incident received such an inquiry from higher-ups.

He paused briefly, then immediately shook his head.

"We are currently working on an asset agreement to see if the other party attacked Lisnos because of money or something similar."

"As for whether such a document exists..."

The leader glanced at the burly man in black, who had been sent along by his superiors, and who had no expression on his face.

He said this with great insight:

"We have not yet discovered or found it."

"It's also possible that we lack the capability and need support from other forces..."

These words made things very clear.

The burly man in black nodded slightly: "I came here specifically to provide support and assistance."

[Hmm, they probably came here specifically to destroy evidence, right?!]

The leader outwardly welcomed them respectfully, saying polite things, but inwardly he was constantly complaining.

It is clear that there are unspeakable illicit dealings between Lennox, his consortium, and higher-level political figures.

After all, Linos had abducted so many children.

If no one had covered for him, he probably would have been investigated long ago.

Now, Linos has been murdered and fallen from power.

So he may still have evidence of dealings and collusion with higher-ranking political figures.

Therefore, in order to avoid being implicated, the matter inside the secret room was mysteriously suppressed for the time being.

All those who were discovered were silenced, whether through coercion or bribery.

This has led to increasingly intense calls and protests from the outside world.

However, the investigators in charge of this case have not provided any further explanation.

No matter who came to inquire or what questions the reporters asked, they all said that the matter was already under investigation.

There's no definite answer.

"This is the true face of those so-called high-ranking political figures."

Inside that abandoned building in a remote corner of Yorktown.

Mog and the others did not leave the city.

Instead, they stayed here to wait and see what the outside world was like and how things would develop.

However, judging from the situation that has been revealed so far...

"Those guys, they really don't follow the laws they set."

They found a broken television from somewhere.

After the knight fiddled with the wires and connected the signal, he saw the news on it.
