My Journey Of Hunter X Hunter - Chapter 19

It’s the next day and we’re all sitting around, getting more and more bored by the minute.

Leorio is comfortably sleeping on the sofa, Tonpa is…playing with his feet (he can’t think of anything else to do? Seriously), Kurapika is reading a few books from the bookshelves and Gon is telling Killua about his fishing rod and what it’s used for.

“Huh. I thought you only put bait on the hook and you could fish with it.” Killua examines Gon’s rod.

“Yeah, but you also got to think like a fish.”

“Does that even work?” Killua looks incredulously at Gon.

“Uhuh. What would a fish feel if it saw bait dangling in front of it.” After saying this, Gon took the rod back from Killua and fished it, using his skills, into the cup situated next to Tonpa.

Tonpa looks at the cup in surprise.

“Woah. Let me have a try.” Killua says.

He takes the rod in his hands and focuses on a specific target than he fishes the line all the way to the sofa, missing his target. Then, having a cool idea in his mind, he dragged the line back towards him where it caught onto Leorio’s sleeping leg.

Leorio wakes up to find his leg being tugged by the rod.

“Hey! What do you think you’re doing? Stop!” He shouts.

“Haha. Right on target.” Killua chuckles, tugging more and more at Leorio’s leg.

Leorio holds onto his leg trousers and tries to get the hook off.

I laugh.

At last, the hook gets off of Leorio’s trousers, taking a part with it and returns back to Killua and Gon’s way.

“You see. I landed a big one.” Killua says, proudly.

“Yep.” Gon agrees.

Leorio, full of anger, stands up from the sofa and yells at Killua.

“Do I look like a fish to you? Grow up!”

“No need to get so mad. It’s not like I’m going to cook you and eat you.” Killua replies.

“It’s true…unless you want to be cooked and eaten.” I smile, thinking about the idea of Leorio being cooked right here, right now, having an apple in his mouth. Haha. What a good thought.

“Hey! Who asked for your input?!” Leorio decides to have a go at me.

“No one, no one…” I mumble, still smiling.

“I can’t get a decent sleep around here! Childish kids here, small room and…” Leorio returns to ranting.

I, Killua and Gon laugh along.

Then, I notice Tonpa smirking.

Leorio stops ranting and looks at Tonpa.

“You’re up to something again, aren’t you?” Leorio looks at Tonpa with suspicion.

“Whatever do you mean? I just want to spend the rest of my time here with some peace and quiet.

“Liar! I don’t trust you, not one bit.” Leorio goes back to the sofa.

Same here Leorio. I would NEVER trust Tonpa, not even if my life depended upon it. Tonpa is the most untrustworthy person you could find…so far.
