Chapter 1115: Little Partners Can't Hold Grudges
"I understand!" Mitsuhiko smiled, then quickly said seriously, "I will work hard!"
Chi Feichei nodded and looked back at his book.
Mitsuhiko went to his bedroom and changed into the windbreaker gifted by the Aphrodite. It was given by the staff responsible for registration when boarding. It was a light blue jacket with 'Aphrodite' printed in English on the back. "Brother Chi, then I'm going to play with everyone. Also, did you and Conan have a fight?"
Chi Feichei said without lifting his head, "No."
Mitsuhiko hesitated for a moment, didn't press further, and after opening the door, politely turned back and bowed, "Then I'm going out."
"Click."
The door was closed, and Xiao Mei's figure appeared beside him.
"Master, I have investigated. Entaro Yashiro lives in Room 604 diagonally above. Entaro Yashiro's daughter, Yashiro Takie, lives in Room 507, which is one room away from here, but the door opens towards the corridor on the other side."
Chi Feichei turned the page of the book he finished reading. "Go stare at Entaro Yashiro. Noah said My Father (Chi Zhennosuke) is expected to make a move during the Cruise Ship Island Activity. No matter what you hear, write it down."
"Okay, Master!" Xiao Mei concealed her figure.
At 1:30 PM, the cruise ship docked at a small island with beautiful scenery. Many guests changed into their Aphrodite jackets and went ashore to play.
Just as Entaro Yashiro and his daughter were preparing to go to the deck to see the scenery, Entaro Yashiro suddenly received a phone call. Hearing that there were significant problems with the group's internal finance, he could only give up going ashore and remotely directed matters using the phone and internet.
The problem was neither big nor small. Although it was ultimately a false alarm, due to the funds problem involving the R&D Department and Manufacturing Department, Entaro Yashiro still wasted an afternoon of sightseeing time. Moreover, Xiao Mei secretly saw many things...
Room 505.
Chi Feichei also didn't go out. It wasn't until evening, after the cruise ship left the island and sailed towards the sea again, that he estimated the time, closed the book in his hand, turned around, and went to the room.
Not long after, Xiao Mei floated back and began to orally recount everything she heard and saw.
Recent finance movements of the Yashiro Conglomerate, the situation of the Yashiro Conglomerate's important R&D Department, the safe where Entaro Yashiro stored data, a certain mysterious research site sealed by the Yashiro Conglomerate, the Yashiro Conglomerate...
Even some account passwords used by Entaro Yashiro were completely uncovered by Xiao Mei.
Chi Feichei opened his laptop. It took him over an hour to organize the data recounted by Xiao Mei, compress and package it, and send it out through the special channel of the UL Chat Software.
Entaro Yashiro had prepared things like a Will beforehand. The designated successor was his daughter Yashiro Takie, and afterwards, it would be Yashiro Takie's son who is currently studying overseas. It's best to destroy that kind of thing, and it's also best to subdue the insiders and Witnesses, otherwise Yashiro Enzaburo will never be able to take the position.
Currently, having obtained the safe password, Feimo can arrange for Crows to retrieve that Will. The Witnesses and insiders left the instruction manual and signature in the same file bag. The people were also locked down long ago. Yashiro Enzaburo can be made to cooperate with his parents and the personnel from the Fifteenth Night Castle to subdue the Witnesses and insiders.
At the same time, his father should also have Yashiro Enzaburo prepare to take control.
If things go smoothly, tomorrow, as soon as something happens to Entaro Yashiro and his daughter, Yashiro Enzaburo will be able to step forward and gain support.
Of course, it is estimated that it will take another month or two for Yashiro Enzaburo to formally take the position. Before this, he can at most 'temporarily substitute'. If any part goes wrong, there is a possibility of failure.
But they have also made the worst preparation. There will be birds from the Feimo Army and cats from Nameless's Subordinates to cooperate with other personnel, first stealing all the data that can be stolen.
Originally, if Koizumi Akako had intervened, matters would have been much smoother and simpler. But taking action against a large financial group is easy to be noticed, and the connections network of a financial group is also difficult to estimate. Once people from The Vatican intervene, it is very possible to end up with nothing after trying to gain something.
This time, Koizumi Akako will only use Magic Means when it involves the safety and major benefit of the Shinchi Group, Field Group, or even the Tsubame Conglomerate. Before there are major problems, she will just act like a Chuunibyou commander and follow along for the excitement.
"Ding dong! Ding dong..."
The doorbell outside was rung. Chi Feichei closed the computer, got up, and went out of the bedroom to open the door.
The door opened, and all members of the Junior Detective League were present.
"Brother Chi, Uncle Mori used his identity to reserve seats for the banquet. We are all intending to go together..." Mitsuhiko entered the door, explaining, and secretly gave Conan a wink.
When going ashore on the island, he also asked Conan if he had argued with Brother Chi. Conan also said no. However, they also agreed that little partners shouldn't hold grudges.
Conan gave Mitsuhiko a speechless gaze in return, looked towards Chi Feichei, "Brother Chi, you will go together with us, right?"
He and Chi Feichei really didn't argue. Saying he wouldn't stay in the same room with Chi Feichei was just a joke because he was bored. Unexpectedly, the children took it seriously. Even Ran asked him what was going on when they went ashore on the island.
Moreover, hearing Mitsuhiko say that Chi Feichei actually even quoted Holmes' words to teach the children, it is obvious that he still greatly recognizes Holmes' ability. In that case, he has even less to say.
However, these people are really something. They didn't dare to come over and ask Chi Feichei, so they all ran to ask him one by one. Today, he handled this one and then handled that one, and was worn down until he had no temper left.
Chi Feichei nodded in agreement. He has already done everything he can do at present. He can slowly watch the play during the remaining time.
"Then I'll go change clothes first," Haibara Ai yawned, turned around and walked towards the room, "See you in a bit."
Ayumi followed, smilingly turned her head and said, "Brother Chi, see you in a bit! Everyone, see you in a bit!"
Genta looked towards Conan, "Then let's go change clothes too."
Mitsuhiko looked at Conan, then looked at Chi Feichei, who seemed like nothing was wrong, and felt a bit stunned.
Is that all?
No, it should be said that these two people don't look like they've argued.
Conan turned around and waved, "Then we're also going to change clothes. See you in a bit!"
Sigh, he and Chi Feichei really didn't argue. It was just a joke. Children are just children, too serious. Now they're dumbfounded, right?
...
The Yashiro Conglomerate indicated on the invitation letters they sent out that there was a banquet arrangement. The guests also prepared clothes for attending the banquet.
Doctor Agasa also changed into a shirt and a three-piece suit. And besides Doctor Agasa and Ayumi, everyone else's clothes were more or less a bit black or dark gray, to show solemnity.
Suzuki Sonoko wore a dark gray shirt with a skirt. Mouri Ran's pink clothes, similar to professional wear, also had a black T-shirt underneath. Mori Kogoro also wore a black shirt. Haibara Ai wore a black short coat over a simple red dress. Genta also wore a black sweater over his shirt. Even Conan changed into a little boy's banquet lounge suit, and the collar edge was also black.
As for Chi Feichei and Mitsuhiko, they simply wore black coats and black pants.
A group of people, big and small, acted together, walking into the banquet hall for the banquet. They were very eye-catching. The waiter saw them from afar and actively walked towards the entrance.
"Wow, it's so spacious here!" Ayumi was surprised by the scale of the banquet hall.
Mitsuhiko looked at the decoration around him and agreed, "It's very luxurious!"
"Of course," Suzuki Sonoko bent down and looked at the group of children, "The Yashiro Conglomerate is a very large financial group. Yashiro Merchant Ship, one of the important members of the group, invested heavily to build this cruise ship for the first time. Of course, it must be a bit luxurious!"
Chi Feichei listened in silence. Speaking of large financial groups, in this world, the Suzuki Foundation is one of Japan's foremost large financial groups. Tsubame and Yashiro cannot be compared to it. However, when traveling overseas, being a bit humble is indeed a good deed.
"Welcome, guests!" A male waiter wearing a formal dress stepped forward. He recognized Mori Kogoro, who had made the reservation before. He had a polite smile on his face. "Excuse me, are you Mr. Mouri?"
"Ah, I am." Mori Kogoro replied.
"I will immediately prepare your dining seats. Please wait a moment," the male waiter bowed slightly, "It will only take a bit."
"Beep beep beep—"
The thing in Doctor Agasa's hand suddenly made a slight sound.
"Huh?" Conan, standing next to Doctor Agasa, heard it and curiously turned his head to look. "Doctor, what is that?"
"This is just an ordinary digital voice recorder. Because I thought I should immediately record any new invention inspiration I get, I brought it with me. By the way, speaking of new inventions..." Doctor Agasa said, finding a pair of black cufflinks from his pocket and handing them over to Conan to look at. "Look, cufflink walkie-talkies, they also come with an eavesdropping function."
Haibara Ai turned her head with some surprise. "It's quite fashionable, and it looks a bit similar to Brother Chi's."
Conan received the cufflinks, looked at them against the lamplight, and also thought the style was very suitable for young men. "This is very good!"
"Oh? Cufflinks!" Mori Kogoro turned his head and saw them. He directly took the cufflinks from Conan's hand, staring at Conan with an expression that said 'Try to refuse'. "Just right, lend them to me for a bit!"
Conan quickly said, "But that..."
"Idiot!" Mori Kogoro bent down and leaned closer to Conan, roaring with dissatisfaction, "Let me tell you, this kind of tasteful thing is only suitable for a gentleman like me! It's too early for a kid like you to use it!"
Haibara Ai was gloating aside.
Chi Feichei turned his head and watched Mori Kogoro putting the cufflinks on his sleeve, silently noting down the details of the cufflinks.
He has similar ones, so he needs to remember the characteristics of this pair of cufflinks, lest he falls into Conan's trap in the future and has some secrets eavesdropped.
"But Father," Mouri Ran said helplessly, "That's Conan..."
"It's okay, Young lady Ran." Conan smiled at Mouri Ran, and indifferently took out a handkerchief and took off his glasses to wipe the lens.
Anyway, he wouldn't be using this kind of thing on the ship either. At most, he was just thinking of playing a prank and swapping Chi Feichei's cufflinks...
"Are you Mr. Mouri?"
A man quickly walked to the side. His knee bumped Conan, making him lean forward, and the glasses in his hand also fell on the carpet.
Conan: ...
Could this be retribution for the bad intentions he had just now?
"You are the famous detective Mori Kogoro, right?" The man who came over didn't care about his knee bumping into the child at all. He said enthusiastically to Mori Kogoro, "That's great!"
Conan picked up his glasses and put them on, speechless as he looked at the man with dyed yellow medium-length hair, wearing fashionable white-framed glasses on his nose.
"I'm a screenwriter named Kusaka Hiroshige," the man looked at Mori Kogoro and smiled, "I'm your loyal supporter!"
Mori Kogoro looked up and saw a woman with short black hair, an appearance very similar to Kisaki Eri, wearing glasses, walking behind Kusaka Hiroshige. His expression suddenly stiffened. "Uh, thank you."
Kusaka Hiroshige saw Mori Kogoro looking behind him, turned his head and introduced, "Ah, by the way, this is Miss Akiyoshi Minako."
Akiyoshi Minako looked up and showed a smile to Mori Kogoro.
Mori Kogoro: ...
Upon closer look, she was even more similar.
"I understand!" Mitsuhiko smiled, then quickly said seriously, "I will work hard!"
Chi Feichei nodded and looked back at his book.
