After leaving Akie, Takateru did not continue to check on Sakamoto Hiroshi. Instead, he walked straight back to the dining room.
After working for such a long time, he wanted to take a break, observe the situation, and replenish his energy.
Gao Yuanzhao heard Xiao Lan's grumbling voice at the entrance of the restaurant.
"Daddy, you drank too much again!”
"What's wrong with Xiaowulang!" Gao Yuanzhao walked into the dining room and realized that only Xiaolan, Xia Jiang, and Koguro were left in the dining room.
"And what about those people? Why are they all gone!"
"Ah, Zhaojun, you're finally here!”When Xiao Lan saw Gao Yuanzhao, she immediately ran over as if she had found her savior.
"Dad originally said that he wanted to wait for you, but he was persuaded to drink and drank too much. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't wake up. And those people…"
Lan looked at Xia Jiang halfway through her sentence.
"I'm really sorry. Aunt and the others said that they had to go back first, so they left us here to wait for Zhaojun.”
"Is that so?" Gao Yuanzhao didn't have any other reaction. He sat down next to Kogoro, picked up the glass in front of Lan, and drank it in one gulp.
" Zhaojun, you…" Xiao Lan blushed and didn't know what to say. She could only change the topic.
"By the way, Zhaojun, did you see Conan? He went to the toilet. Dad asked him to get you back.”
"Is that so?" Gao Yuanzhao said as he poured the bottle of high-class red wine in front of Kogoro into the glass.
"I went to some other places to look for clues, so I probably didn't meet him. But don't worry, that brat is very lucky.”
After saying that, she took a sip of red wine.
"It's really good wine. Although it seems to have added something, it's really expensive!”
Gao Yuanzhao sighed in his heart, but now was not the time to receive his trump card.
"Zhaojun, why are you like this too?”Xiao Lan was a little grumpy and didn't notice what Gao Yuanzhao said.
" Don't worry about these details. What you need to pay attention to now is…" Before Gao Yuanzhao could finish speaking, Sakamoto Shoji suddenly ran in from outside, panting.
"Mr. Policeman, we…we found…"
" Come, come, slow down…" Gao Yuanzhao said as he poured a glass of red wine.
"Thank you, but you should come over first. We found that…one of the lifeboats seems to be missing. Little Wu, we searched the entire boat but couldn't find it.”
Shoji took the wine and put it aside without even looking at it. Takateru understood and looked at Kogoro. He sighed. Being confused was a blessing!
"Really?" Xia Jiang was a little excited. Xianger was no longer hinting. She could only think that Xiao Wu had already…
Thinking of this, Xia Jiang immediately rushed out.
"Xiaolan, let's go take a look too." Gao Yuanzhao was curious about what these people were up to.
"Then…Conan, he…"
"Think about it, with Conan's personality, where are the clues? He runs faster than anyone else. Maybe we'll meet him when we get there. Moreover, Little Wu might not be on the ship anymore, right?”
After saying the last sentence, Takamoto Terasu turned to look at Sakamoto Shoji.
" Uh…probably…Shoji didn't dare to look into Gao Yuanzhao's eyes. He evaded and ran away.
…
When they arrived at the parking area of the lifeboat, they could see a few broken ropes on the left side of the liner. There was also a large pair of pliers on the ground.
" This is the place. Come and take a look…" At that moment, apart from Ryuuko and Akie, Mariko's entire family was standing there with a hint of eagerness and desire on their faces.
"Do you want me to go over so badly?" Gao Yuanzhao's heart skipped a beat as he grabbed Xia Jiang, who was in front of him.
"Be careful. The wind is so strong. Don't be blown down. If you go down, you'll die.”
Then, without caring about Xia Jiang's red face, the three of them slowly walked over.
"Mr. Policeman, you're so lucky!”Mariko said in a lukewarm manner, then moved aside, wanting Gao Yuanzhao to check on the situation.
However, Gao Yuanzhao did stop in his tracks and said helplessly.
"Uh…Actually, I don't mind continuing to play with you guys, but…"
Gao Yuanzhao was a little embarrassed. She didn't expect the other party to deal with it so simply, cruelly, and decisively. He completely treated her like a fool.
Gao Yuanzhao kicked the guardrail beside him. With a creak, the sturdy guardrail actually fell down.
"Aren't you going a little overboard treating me like a fool? Tell me, what happened!”
With the scheme revealed, everyone revealed their trump cards to each other, and there was nothing more to say.
However, perhaps because Gao Yuanzhao's protagonist halo was not bright enough, these people did not explain the ins and outs of the story to Gao Yuanzhao in detail.
The Mariko family quickly took out a little boy from a lifeboat that had not been lowered and pressed a knife against his neck. This little boy was Conan.
However, Conan's mouth had been sealed with tape, and his hands were tied. He was sobbing, and no one knew what he was saying.
"Lord Conan!" Xiaolan and Xia Jiang would be idiots if they didn't know what was going on.
"Aunt! What are you doing!" Xia Jiang's voice was filled with sadness.
" Don't call me that..." Mariko shouted, her expression twisted. She was both angry and amused." He never treated me as his daughter. He didn't even give me a single cent of property! He actually wants to share all of it with you. Really..."
"There's no point in saying anything more. Miss Xia Jiang, haven't you noticed? Your family has all gone mad, driven mad by hatred and greed.”
Gao Yuanzhao's voice was very calm, not at all like he was in a critical moment. As long as he used his full strength, he had ten thousand ways to deal with the other party.
However, how could one see true love without adversity? Gao Yuanzhao planned to wait and see, then choose the most romantic one.
"You only have one choice now. Jump down from here immediately, or this little brat's life will be in danger.”Mariko shouted.
"Will he live if we jump down?”Gao Yuanzhao laughed when he heard that. At the same time, he looked up.
"Don't think that the crew will come to save you. The last sum of money that the old man spent when he was alive was to instruct these hired crew members not to come down and ruin the family banquet of the family. Haha…no one will even know that you were here."
Mariko laughed happily.
" If you jump down now, there's still a chance. If you survive, we promise not to pursue the matter. Xia Jiang, believe me…" Xianger seemed to be struggling, but his words were vicious.
"Second Uncle?" Xia Jiang pleaded.
Xianger turned his head away.
" Jump, or else…" Mariko's knife slowly approached Conan's neck.
"Lord Conan!" Xiao Lan was extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She could only look at Gao Yuanzhao with hope.
“YouJump,IJump!”Gao Yuan looked into Xiao Lan's eyes and said affectionately.
Although Xiaolan didn't know what was going on, she still lowered her head shyly when she met Gao Yuanzhao's affectionate gaze.
"By the way, my 'You' is in the plurals. Xia Jiang, you agree too, right?”Gao Yuanzhao immediately looked at Xia Jiang when he saw Xiao Lan's actions.
"Eh?" Xia Jiang was also a little confused and could only nod.
So Gao Yuanzhao held each of his arms and closed his eyes at Conan, who was shaking his head crazily. He nodded, kicked his legs, and jumped down.
"Xia Jiang!" Xianger still liked his niece, Xia Jiang, very much. He couldn't help but want to rush over.
Only then did they realize that the moment Gao Yuanzhao kicked, a small thing fell out of his pants.
"This is…"
Conan was the first to recognize it. He had seen it with his father in Hawaii, so he closed his eyes in horror.
"That guy actually threw a flash bomb…"
How would Conan know that a man's romance was nothing more than an explosion?
(I can only help Qingshan wash it this way. I really couldn't understand the crew's bug at that time.)
