Ke Xue: I was raised by them in Mihua.

But if he could take down a group of drug dealers in an instant, then knocking out two ordinary people should be a simple matter as well.

As for the motive... Conan kept his eyes on Luo Tian while listening intently to the loud whispers coming from the Hatamoto family.

……

"What?! Xiao Wu is actually a kid from that company!"

Right from the start, Mr. Hatamoto revealed the identity of the groom-to-be.

After all, this concerns the lifelong happiness of his most beloved granddaughter.

This caused everyone in the Hatamoto family to show expressions of shock, and they instinctively distanced themselves from the groom-to-be.

As we all know, the business world is a battlefield without gunpowder, and failure is very common.

In business competition, it's either you lose or I win.

Making money is all about the bottom line; there's no such thing as being shameful as long as you don't cross the line!

Many companies have gone bankrupt due to such fierce competition.

Hatamoto Natsue's fiancé is one of them!

However, the groom's parents were rather extreme. After their company went bankrupt, they had no belief in making a comeback and instead chose to jump off a building together.

Now, a person who grew up in an orphanage has come forward to the suspected culprit who killed his parents!

He even hooked up with the other family's granddaughter, and was just one step away from marrying into the Manchu family!

No one can guarantee what sinister intentions lie behind this!

Who knows, they might be planning to get to know each other better and then take revenge one by one?!

Or perhaps they plan to choose a time when the whole family is gathered together and wipe out the entire clan?!

For example, on this ship!

Thinking about it this way, the second brother of the Hatamoto clan and the others shuddered, feeling as if they had just brushed past death!

Even Mr. Hatakemoto had similar thoughts.

If they hadn't been in the room and both of them hadn't fainted for some unknown reason, he might have been the first target of his revenge!

Only Hatamoto Natsue still couldn't believe such a conjecture, looking at her fiancé with a glimmer of hope, wanting to hear him deny it.

"Xia Jiang, I'm sorry, Grandpa was telling the truth!"

The groom-to-be was quite straightforward; seeing that his identity had been exposed, he simply admitted it.

He thought this would at least salvage some goodwill, but the result disappointed him.

"Don't call me grandpa!"

Old Master Hatamoto waved his sleeve, his face contorted with rage, his beard bristling and eyes wide with fury.

He had never seen such a shameless person!

Even after all this, he still has the nerve to try and build a relationship with us? Does he really think he's so good-natured?!

"Tell me, what exactly are you planning to do by hiding your identity and joining the Hatamoto family?!"

"That's right! Your parents committed suicide, it has nothing to do with us!"

"Moreover, because of this incident back then, our Hatamoto Group was heavily criticized by the media and was in a sorry state for quite some time!"

"You're definitely after our family's property!"

Other members of the Hatamoto family also began to speculate about the groom's motives.

He was suddenly isolated and helpless, with only his fiancée still standing by his side.

However, Hatamoto Natsue also had a hint of confusion in her eyes, and for a moment she felt that she did not recognize her fiancé in front of her.

"No! That's not the case!"

The groom-to-be quickly tried to explain.

"At first, I did come here for revenge, but since I met Xia Jiang, I've let go of my hatred! I just want to be with her forever!"

His expression was sincere, as if he were speaking from the bottom of his heart.

His gaze toward his fiancée was filled with deep affection, and he slowly reached out his hand, wanting to salvage the relationship.

Hatamoto Natsue stared at that familiar gaze, frozen in place, neither looking away nor going to meet it.

She was still hesitating when a crisp voice snapped her out of her daze!

"But you still haven't told Sister Xia Jiang your true identity, have you?"

Luo Tian took a bite of the apple and asked a question as if watching a spectacle.

He swears that it was really just a casual comment!

I never imagined it would ruin a marriage!

"That's right! You say you love Xia Jiang, so why are you hiding it from her?"

"Do you intend to keep this from her forever?"

"Who knows if you genuinely like Xia Jiang, or if you're just using her as a starting point?"

Despite numerous internal conflicts, the Hatamoto family remained quite united when facing external enemies.

One person after another left the groom speechless, and his outstretched hand froze in mid-air.

He looked up, waiting for his fiancée's reply.

Hatamoto Natsue took a deep breath, glanced at Luo Tian again, and then slowly spoke.

"I just want to know, if a similar situation happens again in the future, will you still hide it from me?"

"I……"

The groom-to-be wanted to say he didn't know how, but he stopped himself as soon as he opened his mouth.

To be honest, even he himself couldn't guarantee that!

"I understand!"

With her head down, Hatamoto Natsue muttered something to herself, then left the restaurant without looking back.

This left the groom-to-be utterly devastated; he immediately knelt down, hands on the ground.

He realized that his fiancée was gone!

"Okay! That's how it should be!"

Seeing this, Conan clenched his fists and shouted to himself.

We're all men, how can I be the only one heartbroken!

He immediately felt much more at peace!

Chapter 204 Relieving Stress: I'm a Professional! (Second Update)

On the deck, Hatamoto Natsue was staring blankly into the distance.

The sea breeze tousled her hair and skirt, creating a beautiful scene, yet a faint sadness permeated the air.

His already slender figure appeared even smaller against the backdrop of the night.

Even if she jumped into the sea the next second, it would seem perfectly reasonable.

Of course, Luo Tian would not allow this to happen!

"So, the love wasn't deep enough!"

He strolled slowly onto the deck, put his hands behind his back, and uttered a sigh.

This is why he always tells his wife his true identity.

A secret is like a time bomb; you never know when it will explode or what the consequences will be.

It's better to eliminate the danger at the beginning than to be caught off guard later!

This is Luo Tian's way of dealing with the world!

However, when he says this with his cute little boy appearance, it just makes him seem like he's pretending to be a little adult, which is strangely adorable.

At least that's what Natsue Hatamoto thinks!

"Thank you for comforting me, Xiao Luo!"

She knelt down and affectionately stroked the little boy's head.

This was the first time she had done this since Luo Tian boarded the ship.

"Is everything inside finished?"

"Not yet. You know the true colors of your family members; they don't care about any revenge-seeking murderer."

Luo Tian shrugged and offered a sharp comment.

After the groom-to-be—no, the former groom-to-be—knelt down, the Hatamoto family, who had been quite united just moments before, began to turn on each other and attack one another.

This infuriated the old master, who, with the help of the old butler, went back to his room to rest.

In order to fulfill her duties as a detective, Miwako temporarily kept her former fiancé under guard.

Although no crime has occurred, given the current rift, she can't guarantee what will happen next.

She also recorded the information of her former fiancé.

From now on, whenever anything happens to the Hatamoto family, this guy will become the prime suspect!

"Yes! They only care about their family fortune..."

Hatamoto Natsue smiled helplessly, gazing at the distant sea with a complex expression.

She didn't pay much attention to the little boy's sharp comments, after all, Luo Tian had always been like this in the live broadcast room.

"However, Sister Xia Jiang, you value family more. In this respect, you've already won."

Luo Tian continued to patiently guide her, intending to set a goal for this confused girl.

"Family ties?"

Upon hearing this word, Hatamoto Natsue's beautiful eyes dimmed considerably.

“I’ve always wondered if I’m a jinx. My parents died in a car accident because of me when I was little, and now Xiaowu is too…”

Confusion, self-blame, sadness—a mix of emotions etched on her beautiful face, making her look truly endearing.

This put Luo Tian in a very difficult position.

How can someone who so readily blames themselves for the mistakes that happen around them have a good life?

No wonder she was so open in the live stream, she was forced to be like that!

He can't stand this situation!

"Sister Xia Jiang, would you like me to give you a massage?"

With a smile, Luo Tian put his hand on Hatamoto Natsue's shoulder and suggested.

He's an expert when it comes to relieving women's psychological stress and negative emotions!

"massage?"

With some doubt, Hatamoto Natsue took the little boy back to her room.

As expected of a luxury cruise ship, the rooms were well-decorated and laid out, and a faint fragrance permeated the air.

In the open wardrobe, Luo Tian also saw a pure white wedding dress.

This voyage was originally intended for taking wedding photos, but it turned out like this.

Whose fault is it?

Luo Tian ruled out his own cause, so the problem clearly lay with the big black rat!

No wonder he's called the Grim Reaper Elementary School Student; wherever he goes, trouble follows!

"Is there anything I need to prepare?"

After closing the door, Hatamoto Natsue's face flushed slightly.

This was the first time she had ever been alone in a room with a boy, not even her ex-fiancé, with whom she had never had any intimate contact.
