Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

Zhiyong plans to sell Ju-on for a while before releasing WuYe Bell.

Besides these works, there are also some works that were very popular in their previous lives.

Zhiyong will write about them in the future.

After the novel was published, the story of Zhiyong was no longer told.

After all, Zhiyong is just a newcomer, so even if he holds a book signing event, not many people will come.

However, even if they had the wisdom and courage, they were not prepared to hold the event.

Because at this time.

Zhiyong sent an invitation.

It was this invitation that made Zhihu put everything aside.

This invitation came from Ayako Suzuki.

Since that auction.

The two had met a few times.

It was simply because Ayako Suzuki knew that Tomoyu had other women, such as Yoko Okino.

Their relationship didn't progress much.

Zhiyong also activated an illusion for Suzuki Ayako.

However, they were also very measured in their actions.

After all, the Suzuki family wields too much power in the island nation.

Currently, Zhiyong's power is still no match for the behemoth that is the Suzuki family.

Therefore, no further action was taken against Ayako Suzuki.

This time, Ayako Suzuki invited Tomoyuki to join her on a cruise trip.

Departing from Tokyo Port, the journey takes two days and one night at sea before returning.

Ayako Suzuki invited Tomoyuki because an auction would be held on the cruise ship.

There are some precious treasures at this auction.

While Zhiyong and Suzuki Ayako were chatting.

He once said that he liked the atmosphere of auctions.

Therefore, Ayako Suzuki had previously invited Tomoyuki to two auctions.

It's just a pity that those two events, although not small in scale...

Unfortunately, they did not have the items that Zhiyong needed.

This time, the scale of the cruise ship is very large, and there are many precious treasures on board.

The cruise ship's organizers also invited many wealthy individuals to participate.

The Suzuki family became a top-tier family.

The organizers definitely want to invite members of the Suzuki family to participate.

Originally, no one from the Suzuki family wanted to participate.

However, knowing that Tomoyuki liked it, Ayako Suzuki asked for two cruise ship invitations.

……

Chapter 275 Going to Sea

Saturday morning, at the port of Tokyo.

A luxury cruise ship is docked at the pier.

The cruise ship departs at 10:00 AM.

When Zhiyong arrived at the pier, passengers had already begun to board the ship one after another.

He met with Ayako Suzuki.

The two then boarded the cruise ship together.

"I need to thank you again for inviting me on this trip," Zhiyong said as they walked.

"It's nothing. I haven't had a break for a while because I was helping the professor with a project. Now that it's finished, I'm taking this opportunity to get out and relax a bit," Ayako Suzuki replied with a smile, her eyes narrowed.

"Is it the topic you mentioned last time?" Zhiyong asked.

“Yes. What about you? Has anything interesting happened during this period?” Ayako Suzuki asked.

"Yes, something very interesting happened in the last couple of days," Zhiyong replied.

"What happened? Tell me about it."

Do you know the Mamiya family?

"Mamiya? I remember now, you mean the Mamamiya family with the blue castle?"

"Yes, that's their house."

"Their family isn't famous, but because of that castle, they've become somewhat well-known. What happened to them?"

"That's all..."

The Wise and Brave Junior Detective Club goes camping.

How did he end up staying at the Mamiya family's house because he forgot to bring a tent, and how did he learn about the Mamiya family's past?

Of course, Zhiyong didn't say that he knew the plot, so he didn't care about Conan's life or death.

Despite living in a large family like the Suzuki family, Ayako Suzuki is still very kind-hearted.

If Zhiyong tells Ayako Suzuki that he knew there was danger but didn't go to save Conan.

That would give Ayako Suzuki a bad impression of him.

After all, it's not something Zhiyong can say out loud that Conan is Shinichi Kudo.

Zhiyong slightly modified the process, and when he finished telling the story, he surprised Ayako Suzuki.

"I never imagined that such a terrible thing would happen to the Mamiya family. That housekeeper is truly heartless. She killed so many people just for some unknown treasure."

“Yes, especially since she even had plastic surgery to look like that, her mental state has deteriorated to the point of being abnormal,” Zhiyong added.

The two chatted for a while and then arrived at their room.

Zhiyong's room is diagonally opposite Suzuki Ayako's.

After all, their relationship hadn't reached the point where they could live together intimately.

On the cruise ship.

It has a variety of entertainment facilities, including cafes, bars, KTVs, arcades, casinos, and more.

The auction took place in the evening.

Therefore, you can have a good time on the ship during the day.

In order to prevent any unexpected events.

Before coming, Zhiyong had already learned that Conan and Kogoro Mouri had no plans to travel, and they did not have any invitations.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about any situation that may occur on the ship.

Zhiyong has no interest in coffee shops, bars, karaoke rooms, or arcades.

However, Zhiyong still had some interest in casinos.

Of course, Zhiyong doesn't actually enjoy gambling.

I'm just very curious about it.

I watched a lot of Hong Kong movies in my past life, such as God of Gamblers and Saint of Gamblers.

They were also very curious about those gambling techniques.

Zhiyong also knew that nine out of ten gambles were rigged, and that not gambling was the way to win.

Therefore, in his previous life, even during the New Year, Zhiyong never played mahjong or cards with anyone that involved money or valuables.

Gambling in moderation is harmless, but excessive gambling is detrimental to health.

But even those gamblers started with small bets.

If you don't want to end up bankrupt and separated from your family.

Whether it's small betting or big betting, it's best not to participate.

After lunch.

Zhiyong then decided to take Suzuki Ayako to the casino.

"Let's go check out the casino. I haven't been inside one yet, and I'd like to see it."

Zhiyong is going to the casino.

This greatly surprised Ayako Suzuki.

"This isn't a good idea. It's best not to gamble," Ayako Suzuki advised.

"Hahahaha." Zhiyong laughed a few times and said, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in gambling. I'm just a little curious because I've never seen it before."

Seeing that Zhiyong said this, Suzuki Ayako could no longer stop him.

The two entered the casino, and Zhiyong only exchanged 100,000 yuan.

Anyway, they weren't really going to gamble.

Although Zhiyong had also learned gambling skills.

However, because I don't have this hobby, I've never practiced it.

Therefore, he can't play anything more advanced, and besides, the little money he exchanged isn't even enough for one game.

Zhiyong took Suzuki Ayako to play a few rounds of slot machines, sic bo, blackjack, and other games.
