Chen Nuo frowned: "Miss Hatamoto, please have some self-respect. I already have a girlfriend."
"What does it matter? I have a husband too." Akie Hatamoto threw her cigarette into the sea.
Chen Nuo looked at her with disbelief.
"500 million yuan a month, to be my mistress, how about it?" She pulled out a card and tucked it into her chest, which was covered by a long black dress.
Chen Nuo was stunned for a moment, not expecting this woman to be so direct.
“But there are requirements,” Akie Hatamoto said. “You have to show that cold feeling, that is, a polite expression but actually a disdainful look.”
Chen Nuo: "Sorry, I'm not interested."
“Yes, that’s it. Looks like you’re quite good at it…” Akie Hatamoto looked at her like a predator spotting its prey.
Chen Nuo felt that this woman definitely had some kind of illness, so he turned around and walked into the cabin.
Upon seeing this, Akie Hatamoto immediately pressed herself against him.
"What are you doing?" Xiaolan's voice came from behind.
Chen Nuo looked up and saw that Xiao Lan was standing at the deck entrance at some point, with an incredulous expression on her face.
Akie Hatamoto doesn't seem to be at the point of flirting with young boys in front of strangers.
She let go of his hand and shoved a business card into Chen Nuo's hand: "Tch, boring. Call me when you've made up your mind."
Akie Hatamoto swayed as she walked into the cabin.
Xiaolan was still standing there, gently biting her lip.
Having no other choice, Chen Nuo walked up to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
"What were you doing just now?" Xiaolan asked, looking into his eyes.
"Didn't you see it all?"
"I...I...I..." Xiaolan stammered for a long time before finally asking the question she wanted to ask: "You won't say yes to her, will you?"
"I'm not interested in that kind of woman," Chen Nuo said with a helpless smile.
Xiaolan still looked suspicious.
Chen Nuo walked to the side of the boat and threw the business card overboard. The card quickly disappeared into the vast sea.
"That's 500 million!" Xiaolan seemed very happy.
"Do you think I'm someone who's so easily bought off?" Chen Nuo said with a smile.
Xiao Lan didn't say anything, but she quietly moved a little closer to Chen Nuo, and their shoulders touched.
The girl's pleasant fragrance, carried by the sea breeze, entered Chen Nuo's nostrils; this scent was far more captivating than that of Akie Hatamoto from before.
"Are you still seasick? Do you want a mint?" Xiaolan suddenly asked.
Chen Nuo: "Okay, do you like candy that much? Why do you always carry candy with you?"
Xiao Lan took out the candy and handed it to Chen Nuo, glancing hesitantly at her own chest before doing so.
The pause startled Chen Nuo for a moment.
Did she want to imitate Akie Hatamoto and place the candy in the middle of that soft, white northern hemisphere?
However, in the end, Xiaolan still seemed unable to overcome that mental hurdle, and simply handed the candy to Chen Nuo with her small hands.
The two then enjoyed the sea breeze on the deck for a while.
The old butler came over before the dinner began: "It's going to rain, guests, you should go back to the boat."
"it is good."
Chen Nuo and Xiao Lan walked side by side into the cabin.
.
Upon learning that the second young lady of the Suzuki family had also boarded their cruise ship, Mr. Hatamoto instructed the kitchen to prepare a feast, intending to treat Sonoko and her friends to a good meal.
Therefore, dinner time is later than usual.
Shiho Miyano said she gets seasick, so she has been resting in her room.
Chen Nuo didn't think much of it; it would be best if she never came out.
Xiao Lan and Xia Jiang sat by the window in the restaurant chatting, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.
Chen Nuo didn't see Suzuki Sonoko; she's probably still resting in her room.
Chen Nuo, carrying a drink, went over and sat down, just in time to overhear an interesting topic.
"Xiao Lan, do you have someone you like?" Xia Jiang asked with a curious look.
Xiaolan blushed and said a little embarrassedly, "I guess so."
"You could say that?" Xia Jiang asked, somewhat puzzled and curious. "What kind of person is he?"
Conan, who was sitting at the table behind, also ran over and pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.
Xiaolan tore at a napkin with her hand to hide her shyness: "He... is very handsome, has a great mind, and his reasoning ability is in no way inferior to my dad's..."
Conan blushed slightly after hearing this.
Although he felt that doing so might not be in line with his status, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Nuo.
There's a hint of showing off in it.
"...And he's also very skilled in swordsmanship. He can take on several thugs by himself. I feel a strong sense of security when I stand behind him," Xiaolan added.
Huh? Kendo?
Conan was stunned for a moment before realizing that he didn't know kendo.
Damn it, that stupid woman, Xiaolan!
However, what about the thugs and the protection she mentioned?
Conan felt a vague unease.
Has she already done something with Chen Nuo that she doesn't know about?
This is a dangerous sign.
Judging from the words "petty hoodlum" and "being protected," it seems to be somewhat like a hero rescuing a damsel in distress.
Seriously, Xiaolan, you could easily handle a few thugs, so why did you make him do it? Damn it.
Conan grew angrier the more he thought about it.
So he frantically drank the beverage in front of him to vent his dissatisfaction.
Chen Nuo's attention wasn't on Conan; he was waiting for that familiar scream.
I got so hungry while waiting.
Just as he was hesitating about whether to eat something first, someone finally noticed that something was wrong.
"Strange, it's already this late, why hasn't Dad come yet?" Akie Hatamoto said impatiently, crossing her legs and glancing at Chen Nuo over and over.
Her husband, Long Nan, pretended not to see it, but his expression was also unpleasant.
"Is he asleep?" Hatamoto Natsue stood up. "I'll go wake Grandpa."
"I'll go, Miss, you stay here and keep the guests company." The old butler stopped Xia Jiang and walked towards Master Hatamoto's room.
Chen Nuo watched the old butler's departing figure.
I glanced at the time again and thought it should be about time.
He picked up two pieces of bread from the table and stuffed them into his mouth. Before he could finish eating them, a scream came from afar.
Everyone looked towards the corridor.
What was that sound?
"It's Butler Suzuki. Has something happened to Dad?"
Everyone stood up and rushed towards Master Hatamoto Gozo's room.
The sound of chairs scraping against the floor could be heard continuously throughout the restaurant.
Conan, of course, rushed over first and stood directly in front of the corpse, but no one found it strange.
Mr. Suzuki was stabbed in the chest, but the murder weapon disappeared.
So the entire ship was immediately shrouded in a cloud of doubt.
Furthermore, due to poor signal caused by the rain, it was impossible to contact the police. In other words, the Metropolitan Police Department could only be contacted for investigation after the ship docked.
Before this, Mr. Hatamoto's children quickly entered a phase of mutual suspicion and accusation, and had already begun the prelude to the inheritance dispute.
With such a big incident, of course we need to gather everyone together and ask if anyone has seen any suspicious people or clues.
But during the process of gathering everyone together, something unexpected happened to Chen Nuo.
Shiho Miyano has disappeared.
“It must have been that woman who killed Dad,” Akie Hatamoto’s husband, Ryuo, shouted.
The way he looked at Chen Nuo.
A fierce fire of jealousy burned within him.
Chapter 14: Shiho Miyano's Feeding is a Battlefield
The banquet in the restaurant had already been cleared away.
Because at this time, no one will have an appetite and want to eat.
Even people who are not related to Lord Hatamoto Gozo by blood will lose their appetite after seeing the bloody crime scene.
On the round table in the center of the restaurant, refreshing coffee and tea were laid out.
However, almost no one touched the glass in front of them.
The fact that Lord Hatamoto was murdered was more invigorating than any coffee.
The argument has already ended, and it seems we're now in a halftime break.
