In addition to the handwritten will, Fantasy Night also took out a camera and shot a video. It was mainly about the authenticity of the will. The old butler was also a witness. Although the old butler felt that it was a little unbelievable that his master would suddenly change his mind, there was nothing unusual about Old Master Hatsumoto. His voice had also changed back to its original appearance. He could not find out, so this matter could only be like this.
After everything was done, there was nothing else for Fantasy Night to do. He stood up and said goodbye. Of course, he also brought the will and the camera along. The video even repeated the contents of the will. As long as one of these two things was present, it would be enough.
It did not take long for the matter to be resolved. When Fantasy Night left, the sky had just begun to darken, and the groom had not yet arrived. However, this was not important. Fantasy Night brought Quantum directly to the deck to look for Akie Hatamoto. He handed the will and the camera to Akie Hatamoto. After she read it, Fantasy Night would be considered to have completed the exchange.
"I've already done what you wanted me to do. Shouldn't you make the exchange?”
"Yes, of course." Akie Hatamoto nodded and put away the camera and will. Then, he took out three gems from his bag and handed them to Fantasy Night." These are the three gems that we agreed on. As for my sister, I'll let her wait for you in the room tonight."”
Upon hearing her words, Fantasy Night only smiled and took the gemstone without saying anything. Hatamoto Akie also went back directly. Fantasy Night watched Hatamoto Akie's back as he walked into the cabin and smiled again." Quantum, who do you think is the devil?”
"Both of you!" Quantum said without hesitation. To her, Fantasy Night and Akie Hatamoto were both devilish people. Fantasy Night did not mind Quantum's words. He had always said that he was a devil, so he was not afraid of others saying it.
He looked at the three gemstones in his hand. One was red and looked a little like the shape of the sun. One was crescent-shaped, which was the so-called moon. The last one was cross-shaped, which was the shape of a star. The gemstones were not big, about the size of a fingernail, but Huan Ye was very satisfied with them.
" Actually, if you meet someone who knows the value of these gems, any one of these three gems can buy two Hatamoto Groups. Three gems are six. Akie Hatamoto used six Hatamoto Groups in exchange for the right to inherit the Hatamoto Group, hehe…"
She smiled and then hid the gemstones somewhere. Quantum felt a little sad for Akie Hatsumoto, but she didn't know what to say. She could only say that she didn't know the value of the gemstones.
However, there was no one else in this world who knew about these gemstones other than Fantasy Night.
The Sun Stone was formed by absorbing the essence of the sun over the years. The Moon Stone and the Starlight Stone were the same. For people like Huan Ye, the three were very useful. Absorbing the energy inside could make Huan Ye stronger. It could also be used to embed in weapons to make them more powerful.
As for what Fantasy Night's identity was, he was an ability user, a mage, a cultivator, a wizard, a Yin-Yang Master, a ninja, an immortal, a god, a Buddha, a demon, a ghost, a demon, and so on. However, who else knew besides himself?
Tsk…
Fantasy Night didn't say much. He just took an apple and chewed on it. He looked at the vast sea and fell silent. Liang Zi didn't say anything and just accompanied Fantasy Night.
Time passed slowly. Unknowingly, more than an hour had passed. Night had already fallen, and the moon had already risen. It was probably dinner time, so Fantasy Night brought Quantum to the restaurant on the ship. Some people ate late, especially big families. Dinner usually started after night.
When Huan Ye arrived at the restaurant, the old butler of the Hatsumoto family was also there. When he saw Huan Ye, he suddenly sighed helplessly but did not say anything. He did not know how Huan Ye convinced his master, but it was true that Old Master Hatsumoto had made a will. Moreover, he did not seem to have been coerced. As for hypnosis...
Although he had his suspicions, the old man's appearance did not look like he had been hypnotized at all. Therefore, the old butler could only think that Fantasy Night and the old man had reached a deal. However, it was not up to a butler like him to say anything. He just had to do his part.
The tables in the dining room were small, the kind that could seat four people. The Mori-family sat together with Natsue Hatsumoto, and Fantasy Night did not have the chance to join in the fun. They did not want to sit with Akie Hatsumoto and her husband, so they could only sit to the side. Quantum could not do it. Wearing a maid costume meant having the awareness of a maid. It might not matter at home, but if it was outside, it was better to play the role of a maid.
Fantasy Night took out an apple from somewhere and started biting it. He also looked at the people in the dining room. Not long after, the groom, Xiaowu, walked over a little dejectedly. At this time, the old butler went to find Old Master Hatsumoto who had not come out yet and asked him to come out for dinner.
However, not long after, the people in the restaurant heard a scream. It was naturally the old butler. Hearing this voice, everyone quickly ran over. Only Fantasy Night slowly walked over with Quantum.
Old man Hatsumoto's death was not out of Huan Ye's expectations. He did not intend to change anything. This had nothing to do with the exchange. He had set a code of conduct for himself. As long as it had nothing to do with the client or the exchange project, he would not meddle in other people's business. Old man Hatsumoto was originally related to the exchange project, but ever since he obtained the will and video, it had nothing to do with him. Therefore, whether he died or not did not affect Huan Ye.
According to Maori Kogoro's examination, the time of death was about 40 to 50 minutes ago. At that time, it was about eight o'clock in the evening. At that time, Fantasy Night had already finished his work and was basking in the moonlight on the deck. To be precise, it was not long after seven o'clock when Fantasy Night finished his work, which was when the sun had just sunk into the distant horizon.
At eight o'clock, the old butler didn't stay at Old Master Hatsumoto's place any longer. Instead, he went to prepare dinner. Xiaolan could be a witness, and Hatsumoto Natsue was also with them, so they were eliminated. The remaining seven people from the Hatsumoto family were suspects. They were Hatsumoto Mariko, Hatsumoto Kitaro, their son, Hatsumoto Ichiro, Hatsumoto Akie, Hatsumoto Ryunan, Hatsumoto Shoji, and Takeshi.
The door was locked, and without a key, one could not enter from the outside. The window was also not opened, so it was a murder case in a secret room. There was a suspicion of suicide, but this conclusion was quickly overturned. The reason was that Old Master Hatsumoto was stabbed at the door, and then in order to avoid the murderer, he directly locked the door, so it was still a murder case. After all, the weapon was not found here, and it could not be something like an icicle. After all, people who wanted to commit suicide would not use those. Moreover, Old Master Hatsumoto had no reason to commit suicide.
At this point, there was still insufficient evidence to deduce. However, at this moment, the old butler suddenly thought of something and quickly took something out of his pocket." I remember now. I picked up this flower at the door.”
After saying that, he took out the flower. It was the flower that was pinned to Little Wu's body. Therefore, when he arrived here, the matter seemed to be very obvious.
"I see!" Akie Hatamoto, who had his arms crossed, looked at Xiaowu with a frown." No wonder you came into the restaurant so late."”
" No, you misunderstood, sister." Xiao Wu scratched his head and smiled awkwardly." At that time, I was thinking about something in my room, so..."
"You still haven't given up, Little Wu." Hatsumoto Mariko also said," At that time, I accidentally overheard it from outside the door. At that time, you and Dad were arguing in the house, and you are actually the son of Zaicheng Yukio. Am I right?”
When they heard the name " Yukio Zaicheng ", the people of the Hatake family were all a little shocked and in disbelief. Seeing this, Maori Kogoro was a little puzzled and quickly asked," Who is Yukio Zaicheng?"”
"It's the chairman of Caicheng Industry who committed suicide ten years ago because his father took away his company.”
"So, in order to avenge your father, you approached Xia Jiang and infiltrated the Hatsumoto family. In the end, you killed Old Master Hatsumoto tonight, right?”
Huan Ye said with interest. Then, he looked at Natsue Hatsumoto, who had a sad expression on her face. A pitiful girl with tears in her eyes. This was fun!
However, Fantasy Night didn't manage to watch for long before Natsue Hatsumoto ran away crying. Xiaowu wanted to chase after him, but he was caught by Hatsumoto Shoji. Then, the group locked him in the warehouse on the ship. The door of the warehouse could only be opened from the outside, and the small window was not something that a person could squeeze through, so they were not afraid that he would run away.
The group of people returned to the restaurant. Huan Ye looked uninterested. He had thought that he would be accompanied by a beauty tonight, but now it seemed that it would be a little difficult.
Sitting in the dining room, the people of the Hatamoto family were not sad at all because of the death of their old master. Akie Hatamoto suddenly brought up the matter of inheritance, which caused a discussion among the people of the Hatamoto family. Hatamoto Mariko was undoubtedly the happiest. As the eldest daughter, the inheritance was undoubtedly hers.
Looking at them discussing, Fantasy Night picked up the tools in the kitchen and shook the freshly squeezed apple juice in front of his eyes. Through the apple juice, he looked at the people from the Qi family and smiled. That was why people were human! Humph…
Liang Zi looked at these people and sighed. Then, he looked at Huan Ye and said," Master, I want to go out for a while to see Miss Xia Jiang.”
"Go ahead. It doesn't matter even if you give her a warning. It's good to resist a little. Otherwise, it'll be too boring if she acts like a puppet!”
Fantasy Night's voice was still the same as usual, but Liang Zi's body stiffened. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly. If only his reminder had been useful. Miss Xia Jiang was really pitiful.
Without saying anything else, Quantum left. Fantasy Night continued to look at these people. Because of the inheritance, it was really a little embarrassing!
At this moment, the old butler kindly reminded them," I'm sorry, but there's something that I have to report to everyone. Just in case, the old master has already made a will about the property a long time ago..."
"Nani?" Before the old butler could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Hatsumoto Mariko." Could it be Natsue?”
"Yes." For some reason, the old butler didn't tell her what had just happened. Upon hearing what he said, Hatsumoto Mariko almost lost all hope. Hatsumoto Akie's husband, Hatsumoto Ryuuo, looked unhappy." Damn it, if I can't get a single cent, what's the point of me marrying Akie?"”
Upon hearing his words, Akie Hatamoto, who had been holding the fishing platform steady, immediately frowned." You…What did you say? Did you marry me for grandpa's property?”
