Neferpitou did lie and did not lie at the same time.

He didn't know that man's name was Kaito, but he did see Gon and Killua. So there is a possibility he remembered them.

However, as Narrator-san says, Pitou basically didn't even hear what Gon was saying -tho I would have liked to hear what did he say-. Neferpitou, when he saw Gon's extremely agressive aura, he knew he wouldn't be able to protect Komugi while using Dr. Blythe, that's when this part comes into play:

"Every cell in Pitou's body was focused on the task the King gave him"

Pitou would have said ANYTHING that would make Gon trust him, and let's not forget he broke his own arm, and he would've broken his other arm and his legs.

However we should point out Pitou never said something like "I'll heal that man after I heal her", he said "I'd do anything you ask, but please let me first save her". In that way, he never said he could heal Kaito or something, tho he would have said so if Gon ever asked.

In the end, Neferpitou lied, but probably not being fully conscious because of the following:

- He didn't remember or know who this Kaito was.

- He was never asked something that would exactly make him lie.

- He answered in a way it would let him save Komugi.

Or, he did lie on purpose since:

- He remembered Gon and Killua from that time.

- He answered in a way it would let him save Komugi.

The last item happens twice, so I guess we should follow that whether he knew or not what he was doing, it was in order to save Komugi.
