"I'm the captain, Kuluoluo. Because member number 8 was killed, we're looking for a replacement.”
He didn't care about Ron's wariness at all. Instead, he looked at the protruding fish in Droplet's hand with interest.
There were many people who came out of Meteor Street in groups. Wo Jin and Nobunaga had been together since the beginning.
"Find a substitute member?"
Ron repeated, glancing at Droplet subconsciously and leaning slightly to the side in front of her.
According to the timeline of the Phantom Squadron, the last time the 13 members of the team gathered together was in July 1996. In the same month, member number 8 was assassinated by Siba, the head of the enemy family. member number 4, Face Shadow, was killed by Sisso, and Sisso replaced him as the exploration team's number 4.
It was not until 1999 that the Phantom Squadron had a new member, Droplet.
But Ron had seen the calendar. It was only September 1997.
Was it because he had changed Little Droplet's future fate, causing the little butterfly of fate to flap its wings and summon the Phantom Squadron ahead of time?
"That's right. I've received news from certain sources that your telekinesis has the ability to eliminate thoughts, so I'm very interested in you.”
Kuluoluo didn't hide his true thoughts.
However, his words made Ron's expression turn slightly strange.
"Interested in me? So you're not looking for Xiao Di, you're looking for me…"
Then, he heard Culolo continue,""Can you tell me what your ability is? Your ability should be related to corpses. Before I came here, I went to the morgue and found that the expression on the corpse's face was exactly the same as that of the person you killed today. Is there a unique connection between them?”
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It was clearly a warm smile, but in Ron's eyes, it was a little dazzling.
"Those corpses don't have any death aura or resentment. It's like a vase without a flower arrangement. Only a shell is left. I'm really curious about your ability.”
After saying that, he closed his mouth and rested his chin on his hands, looking at Ron quietly.
He was waiting for Ron's answer.
Ron's next words would represent whether he was willing to join the exploration team or not.
When Kuluo and the others gathered together, they were often tracked down by the corpses and found out about their special abilities. The ability to clean up the corpses was quite suitable for Kuluo.
If Ron was willing to join the exploration team and did not have any other thoughts, then everyone would be happy.
But if he was unwilling, then there was nothing else to say.
He would not kill Ron, but he would not let go of the latter's ability.
They were Bandits!
Culolo looked at Ron, Marchioness, and the others, including Droplet behind him, waiting for his next choice.
An unspoken pressure fell upon Ron.
At this time, Ron's brain was also working rapidly, considering the pros and cons of the current situation.
"There are only two choices now. Join the exploration team or reject it. If I refuse, with Kuluo's personality, there's a high chance that he'll steal my telekinesis. With five exploration team members present, there's no way that Droplet and I can resist. Xiao Di's strength in the exploration team is second to last, and she's even stronger than Ku Bi ~"
"So you can only choose to join?”
Ron felt very unhappy. It didn't feel good to have no other choice because of his weak strength.
"Although I can only choose to join the Phantom Squadron, there doesn't seem to be any harm in joining.”
"Other than being A-rank wanted criminals and having many enemies, the Phantom Squadron is quite low-key in other aspects. When they caused trouble in Youkexin, it was only after some investigation that the gangs found out that they were from the Phantom Squadron.”
"It doesn't really affect their daily lives. Cecil and Maki are still competing in the Sky Arena, and Shaker and Cecil have even gotten their hunter license.”
" Other than the commander's order to gather, under normal circumstances, the exploration team members will act alone. The next Phantom Squadron gathering will be on August 31st, 2000, which is almost two years away. This period of time is enough for me to increase my strength. When I face Kuluo, I won't have no choice like now.”
"Besides, if we follow the Phantom Squadron in Youkexin City two years later, the value of the corpses of the ten Sound Beasts, Peccanoda, and Wo Jin will be too great, not to mention the dead gangsters and the bodyguards hired by the various families with psychic powers.”
" As for Kurapeka, his conflict with the Phantom Squadron has nothing to do with me. When the time comes, I'll just watch the show from the side like Cesso. In that case, joining an exploration team might not be a bad thing…"
Gradually, after sorting out the situation, Ron raised his head and looked straight into Culolo's eyes.
"You seem to have an answer."
Kuluo said with a smile, while Vigilante and the others straightened their bodies slightly.
"Well, joining the Phantom Squadron doesn't seem to be a bad thing. I have no reason to refuse.”
