money.

in all, they had a diamond worth three million and 2,400,000 leftover in cash. plus the money from the arm wrestling, 2,750,000. y/n sat next to killua, resting a hand on his lower arm. she didn't listen too much to the three's conversation.
as it was about the logistics of the auction and her brain wasn't having it. she heard something about a mole? she didn't care either way though, that day they returned to their spot and a man offered to show them somewhere that would make them much more money.
leorio agreed within seconds, of course. y/n followed behind killua as they the "moles" were explaining this place. it had hundreds of people who were standing around and in the middle a ring with a table and two men arm wrestling.
leorio made gon participate, him being his moneymaker. gon approached the ring, but before it even started it was already cancelled. the lights turned on, making y/n's eyes hurt as they adjusted. an auction then was suddenly held. they passed a flyer to each of them.
the seven that were on the page were the target, y/n recognized one of them, "hey it's the pretty girl!" gon nodded, to win this bin you'd have to catch and bring the target to them. winning he prize of 2 billion jenny.
y/n looked to the paper again, a few of the people listed were extremely hot. y/n couldn't fathom why anyone would want to kill them, 'well, i guess they are criminals after all..' upfront, they had to pay 5 million just to participate.
though, killua knew that it wouldn't be easy to catch these people. even the mafia was having trouble dealing with them. "i just heard that the underground auction was attacked last night." killua stated as they walked together.
"was it them?" y/n said as she looked to the flyer leorio held in his hand. "yup, we know who'd be crazy enough to do that." leorio turned around, "the phantom troupe!" he shouted. the thought of them reminded gon of kurapika. "i wonder where kurapika is.." he said aloud.
"shouldn't he be in the city?" y/n said as she leaned against leorio. "i'll call him," gon pulled out his beetle phone, calling kurapika. "he isn't answering." gon looked to killua. "maybe he's working?" leorio stated. "working?" y/n and gon repeated.
"i heard that he's working as a bodyguard. he's trying to track down the scarlet eyes." leorio said. 'scarlet eyes?' y/n thought to herself. she was a bit confused by all this information, but she could sort of piece it together.
gon speculated if kurapika was the one who had been guarding the auction house. though leorio was quick to shut it down. saying that kurapika would have been tracking the troupe himself. 'the troupe?' she put together the information and clues jointly.
y/n now felt a bit guilty for finding some of the members attractive, emphasis on a bit. they wanted to research more of this troupe, any clues that could lead them. but, no of them came across anything that would even help them at all.
gon thought up the idea of asking the internet for something like their exact location. in exchange we'd give them a large sum of money. "but we don't have the money for something like that.." y/n sulked as she leaned against the back of the desk chair.
"don't worry!" gon pulled out his hunter's license from his pocket. "man.. you finally have some money.." leorio commented as he looked over gon's shoulder to his checkbook. "you're fucking crazy.." y/n whispered under her breath. "huh?" gon looked to y/n.
"nothing!" she closed her eyes and smiled. "so what should we do first?" gon asked all of them. "let's start by buying a southernbees catalog." leorio held a finger up as he spoke. y/n groaned a bit, all of this walking from place to place was getting tiring.
the four sat down and flipped through the book. "there it is!" gon pointed to greed island. y/n who sat next to him leaned to the side to get a better look. the minimum bid was 8.9 billion, just about what was expected.
they were walking through the yorknew market side by side as leorio went on about how they would catch the spiders or what not. y/n just smiled and nodded to whatever he was going off about. gon's attention was caught by a certain knife.
he picked it up, examining it. "oh, a ben's knife." killua said as he crouched down. killua explained that it had been designed by a mass murderer a hundred years ago. "so you recognized it." killua took the knife and looked at it also.
"no, i didn't." gon stated and y/n's eyebrows raised. she let a hum signifying her confusion. gon apparently used gyo and saw that it had a faint aura attached to it. y/n used gyo and saw a small aura. "wow.." she said.
killua had gotten an idea, those who are talented use nen without even realizing it. so if they gather items that have an aura, it's likely that they were made by those who are gifted. "well let's get started, i'll start with online forums." killua stated.
y/n didn't want to leave killua's side, though if it were for money.. y/n remembered to bid 2.5 times more than a previous bid. she clenched her fists to her chest, 'this is easy enough!' she thought to herself.
but every item she had picked up had already been bid on from 'zepile'. at the end of the deadline, she walked away empty handed. "so we lost one, but got three." gon stated. "yeah, he got that strange pot thing!" y/n waved a finger.

"let's take these to the auction house." killua stated.
