"What did you say?" Mariko Hatamoto asked in surprise.

The butler continued, "I think we'll announce this at the company in the next few days."

"Could it be...?"

"The entire inheritance was given to Xia Jiang?"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Hatamoto family had a bad feeling.

"Yes, it's in the master's will that the Hatamoto Group will be managed by Miss Xia Jiang." Butler Suzuki lowered his head, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned pale and were too weak to sit down.

He was no longer the happy person he had been just moments before.

"How is this possible?" Mariko Hatamoto felt a little overwhelmed.

"This is outrageous! If I don't get a single penny, what's the point of me marrying Qiujiang?" Tatsuo Yamamoto said angrily.

"What? What do you mean? Are you only marrying me for Grandpa's inheritance?" Akie Hatamoto said angrily.

“Absolutely right. If it weren’t for the inheritance, who would want to marry a shrew like you? Are you out of your mind?” Tatsuo Yamamoto shouted.

"You good-for-nothing, all you do is laze around and wait to die..."

Seeing that the restaurant was turning into a battlefield, Zhiyong decided not to stay any longer.

I saw Zhiyong leaving the restaurant.

Ran and Conan also came out together.

When the three of them reached the deck, they saw Natsue Hatamoto leaning on the railing.

"Miss Xia Jiang, are you alright?" Xiao Lan asked.

Hatamoto Natsue turned around and saw that it was Ran and the other two. She replied in a low voice, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

"Is it about Xiao Wu?" Xiao Lan asked again.

Hatamoto Natsue already had tears in her eyes, and upon hearing Ran's question, she could no longer hold back and tears fell.

Hatamoto Natsue choked up as she said, "I always trusted Xiaowu so much, but I never imagined that he would marry me for revenge. I am so heartbroken."

Looking at the weeping Natsue Hatamoto.

Xiao Lan comforted her, "Miss Xia Jiang, I believe Xiao Wu is definitely not a bad person. After all, he is the husband you chose. How could he be a bad person?"

After listening to Xiaolan's words.

Zhiyong felt that it was very childish.

Xiaolan is right about one thing.

He also felt that the murderer was not Xiao Wu, but that the real culprit was one of the members of the Hatamoto family.

"Ran." Hatamoto Natsue regained some of her composure.

Zhiyong was about to speak as well.

"Pfft."

He heard the sound of something falling into the water.

"what are you doing?"

"boom."

Upon hearing this, Zhiyong immediately activated the map function.

Just then, I saw Ichiro Hatamoto carrying a stick and hurrying away on the other side of the boat.

Chapter 260 Another Victim

At this moment, the space also detected a warning: there were new ghosts.

Zhi Yong then noticed that there was a person sitting by the railing of the boat, and the person's head was covered in blood.

The deceased was Tatsuo Hiramoto.

This was the time for Zhiyong to use the map to observe.

Conan asked, "Ran-neechan, I heard a strange sound."

Xiao Lan asked疑惑地问道, "Miss Xia Jiang, did you hear anything?"

"I didn't hear anything."

"What about you, Sato?"

"I didn't hear it either."

Zhiyong came to his senses and pretended not to know.

He was quite surprised by Conan's hearing.

His senses were enhanced due to the two enhancements of space.

But Conan can hear it, which is quite unusual.

Conan was not satisfied with the three answers.

Therefore, Conan quickly ran towards the direction of the sound.

"Conan! Don't run around."

Ran followed Conan as he suddenly ran away.

Although we still don't know what happened.

But Natsue Hatamoto also chased after them.

Seeing the group, Zhiyong had no choice but to follow them.

He now knows who the real murderer is, and this is an internal matter within a large family.

In fact, Zhiyong didn't want to get involved.

Therefore, just now.

Although he knew that Xiao Wu was not the real murderer.

However, Zhiyong did not want to get involved in finding out who the real culprit was.

Previously, Chi-Yong's main purpose was to be able to follow Kogoro Mouri and make it easier to collect ghosts.

Relying on collecting ghosts to upgrade the space is simply unrealistic now.

While Zhiyong was lost in thought.

The group of them had already run to the other side of the boat.

"what."

Upon seeing the corpse of Tatsuo Hiramoto before him.

Hatamoto Natsue let out a scream.

Because of the death of her grandfather, Hatamoto Gozo, she was already believed to have been killed by the groom at his wedding.

Now, witnessing the murder of a familiar relative, Hatamoto Natsue felt a bit weak and her legs went limp.

Zhiyong happened to be right behind Hatamoto Natsue.

When he saw that Hatamoto Natsue was about to fall, he went over and helped her up.

It was just a bit dark, and with the help of the moonlight and starlight, Zhiyong didn't notice.

He lifted and embraced Hatamoto Natsue with both hands, passing them under Hatamoto Natsue's armpits.

But his hands also touched two very soft things.

Zhiyong didn't think much of it at the time and even grabbed it with both hands.

Suddenly, he realized what he had grabbed.

Zhiyong didn't dare to say anything more, otherwise it would be too awkward, so he quickly moved his hand to another spot.

Fortunately, at this time...

Hatamoto Natsue was a little dazed because of what happened today, and didn't notice that when she was hugged by Tomoyuki, he had already taken advantage of her.

Zhiyong held Hatamoto Natsue for a while before she recovered.

When she saw Zhiyong holding her, she remembered that she had almost fallen earlier and it was Zhiyong who caught her.

"Thank you." Hatamoto Natsue stood firm and thanked Tomoyuki.

Zhi Yong then let go of the matter.

He just remembered that soft feeling from earlier, which still made him feel a little intoxicated.

Zhiyong and the others left the restaurant.

The others also left the restaurant one after another and returned to their rooms.

Because Hatamoto Natsue screamed, it wasn't long before everyone ran over.

Zhiyong also saw Hatamoto Ichiro.

do not judge a book by it's cover.

In the world of Detective Conan, you should never underestimate anyone.

Kogoro Mouri, as a detective, once again found himself next to the corpse.

After inspection.

"There were marks of blows on the victim's head, which should be the cause of death. Judging from the marks on the wounds, the murder weapon was probably an iron pipe or something similar," Kogoro Mouri concluded.

"Who did such a cruel thing?" Hatamoto Natsue asked.

"It must be Xiaowu." Mariko Hatamoto said angrily.

“Idiot, we just locked Xiaowu in the warehouse together, and the warehouse door was locked from the outside, so he couldn’t get out at all,” Kogoro Mori said.

“That’s not right,” Zhiyong said.
