Chapter 42

THIRD PERSON P.O.V.

"So, how's it going for you two," the silver haired male questioned as he spoke into the phone, looking at his two friend's face.

Nijika frowned and shook her head in disappointment, "Nope, I can't find a single thing with aura in it." She muttered as she looked at her phone's screen, observing Killua and Gon's face.

"I found two but..." Gon trailed off looked slightly puzzled as he cocked his head to the side.

Killua who saw this small action narrowed his blue eyes, "I found two myself, but on each of them, there already was a price proposed by a 'Zepile'. I already doubled his price, so we need to wait if he'll quadruple mine..."

Nijika frowned as she ran her fingers through the wig, "Hm," she hummed as a curious look appeared in her eyes, "That can't be a coincidence huh?"

Gon and Killua nodded, agreeing to their female friend's statement, "This person may be using the same trick we are," Killua said as he walked through the crowded streets while looking at the screen. The teen's eyes carefully looking at the stalls filled with items.

"What are we gonna do?" Gon questioned as he scratched his chin while thinking deeply.

Nijika stopped for a moment as she noticed a object emitting aura from the corner of her eyes. As she walked to it, she realized it was rather large wooden sculpture that looked like it wouldn't worth anything. Her mouth quirked up slightly as she read the name that was already on the paper, "Hey, I found an item as well. Zepile already had his name written down." The silver haired female stated as she wrote her own name down, doubling the price.

"Seriously?" Killua questioned, "It's no doubt about it, this guy must know nen!" The male exclaimed positive of his theory.

Nijika and Gon both nodded in agreement. Though a look of doubt could be noticed in the female's eyes.

"Even if we increase our offer, it's possible he'll outbid us, it ends at noon, right?" Nijika questioned as she looked at the time.

"Yeah," Killua confirmed as he smirked slightly, "We'll write out prices right before it ends. Cause I f we try to play with this 'Zepile' person, it'll cost us a lot..."

The female of the group nodded in understanding, "That's a good plan, in the worst case we would still get three objects."

The three teen nodded at each other before ending the call.

>>TIME SKIPS>>

"Oh! You had this at home?" The portly man who was the owner of the store questioned as he looked at the three objects they bought.

The silver haired female innocently nodded her head as she looked over the counter, struggling on her tip toes, "Yup! Nii-chan and I found it in our abandoned attic!" Nijika exclaimed as she brightly smiled.

Killua eagerly nodded as leaned against the counter, much like how Nijika did, "Yeah! Our parents told us that I could sell it depending on the price, so I brought it!"

Gon sweat dropped amazed at the two's amazing acting as siblings, 'Their both so smart...'

The man started to sweat slightly as he pointed at the painting Killua was able to get, "Those are nice objects! This painting for example, it's a lithography by Muca Tolinni, the series is limited to 50 print, plus it's also signed...." The man paused as he lifted his head up, "I would give you 150,000 Jenis for it."
