Chapter 72 No, this can be inherited?
The next day, because Uncle Mori, who had been drunk the night before, had unknowingly fallen asleep in the woods, the group found Kogoro Mori, who was suffering from back pain, on a tree branch the following day.
In order to hitch a ride on another boat, Akutagawa Hiko quietly handed over a fish rice ball and received a thank you in return.
"Dad, we're stuck on this island now, and it'll be several days before the next ship passes by!"
Ran Mouri stood with her hands on her hips, constantly berating Kogoro Mouri for eating rice balls with mineral water.
In their search for the missing Kogoro Mouri, they completely missed the departure time of the ship.
As an all-around girl who takes care of almost all the housework, the daily lives of the elderly and the young, and even the grocery shopping and cooking, and sometimes wins travel vouchers, restaurant vouchers and so on to improve her life, Ran Mouri has a lot of influence.
Moreover, there is physical support.
In a life-or-death duel, Ran Mouri wouldn't be a match for Kogoro Mouri, but the father and daughter couldn't possibly be that bad.
In short, Kogoro Mouri, who was in the wrong, could only obediently listen to Sonoko Suzuki's scolding and blink. He eventually gave up the idea of staying on the island any longer. Originally, besides chasing after Hiko Akutagawa, she did have the intention of accompanying her sister to relax, but then a murder occurred here.
The level of horror was a step up, and it was only because Ayako stayed in the hotel and didn't go out much that she was able to overcome this psychological trauma.
Moreover, the showdown between the international phantom thief and the famous detective is more appealing to her, so she might as well just call a cruise ship over and take them back.
Before Suzuki Sonoko could even begin, Akutagawa Hiko suddenly pointed to the beach: "Look, there's a boat!"
Everyone looked in the direction Akutagawa Hiko was pointing. At first, it was a small black dot, which gradually grew larger. Suzumi Sonoko exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, it's a cruise ship!"
As the cruise ship approached, several small boats carrying a large amount of supplies were loaded onto the ship, and the group got their consent and hitched a ride on this boat.
Although the ship will take more than a day to sail and will not go directly to Tokyo, it is undoubtedly lucky to be able to board this cruise ship compared to waiting idly on the island.
However, just as the group was chatting and enjoying the sea breeze, an unsettling roar erupted from the cabin: "You damn fool, what's going on?!"
Hon Hokuro, who had enthusiastically invited them to hitch a ride on his boat, was being scolded by an elderly man with long hair. This man was none other than Hon Hozo, the chairman of the group, who was over seventy years old but still so energetic.
"Wasn't this ship chartered by our family? Why are you letting outsiders aboard?!"
Faced with the patriarch's roar, Ben Beilang, whose personality was by no means assertive and was even somewhat timid, hurriedly apologized in a panic: "I'm sorry, Father."
Seeing his son-in-law's submissive manner, Benhaozang became even more furious. He pointed at Benbeilang's nose and started cursing: "You think you're so great, making decisions without my permission."
"I don't think you take me seriously at all!!"
The old man looked furious. He had looked down on this person back then, thinking that he should have improved over the years, but he was still the same.
If you still want to take a share of the inheritance, isn't that irresponsible towards all the hard work you put in during your youth?
If he had stood his ground and stood up for himself, he wouldn't have refused to give any inheritance to his lineage.
Even this old man, half-buried and with not many days left to live, doesn't dare to go against them. How will he deal with those seasoned veterans in business competition in the future?!
Seeing that Ran Mouri and the Suzuki sisters were startled by the sudden roar, Natsue Kurumi quickly pulled them aside and explained, "Don't take it too seriously."
My grandfather's mood had been rather bad since the middle of the wedding.
A figure stood silently behind the group, sighing, "Yes, after eating my cooking—"
Akutagawa glanced at the art student who seemed to have only eyes for Honnatsu, then at the old man who was cursing even more rudely than he had when he was playing video games, and decided not to argue with a dying man.
Moreover, to be honest, apart from his bad temper, the old man had no other problems.
It's understandable that they were angry when six unrelated people suddenly appeared on the cruise ship they had chartered, especially since they weren't taking their anger out on them.
They weren't even affected, except that the noise was a bit loud.
After berating his father, Benhaozang started berating his son: "All you do all day is apply paint and smear stuff, you're useless. Your father doesn't even say a word to you. An impossible dream, you should just give up now!!"
Kurohiro's face was grim as he stared at Hongozo's retreating figure, his eyes practically overflowing with murderous intent.
Akutagawa Hiko blinked and looked at the somewhat embarrassed Hon Natsue and Somoto Takeshi.
I always felt there was a hidden meaning in what the old man said.
Ichiro is in love with Natsue, who is his mother's brother's daughter, making them cousins.
If I remember correctly, his parents are also cousins.
What is this? Is it a family trait?
Hon Gozo, who already disapproved of his parents being together, would never allow him to be with Hon Natsumi after stepping on such a huge landmine. Besides, her personality was exactly like his father's, which was annoying to look at.
Akutagawa Hiko asked Suzuki Sonoko with some curiosity, "They seem to be a very wealthy family. Do you know them, Sonoko?"
When Akutagawa Hiko asked her a question, Suzuki Sonoko became excited instantly. Unfortunately, she didn't really have much contact with family affairs and couldn't remember having such a family at all.
He could only reply dejectedly, "Ah, I don't really get involved in the family business."
Akutagawa Hiko felt that Suzuki Sonoko should pay attention. He remembered that Suzuki Ayako eventually got married, so if Suzuki Sonoko's parents didn't plan to have another child, they would definitely have to find a son-in-law to live with them.
While Makoto Kyogoku is undoubtedly very strong in combat, reaching the pinnacle of individual strength in this world, his intelligence seems to be only so-so, and ultimately, family affairs will still fall into his hands.
Ayako Suzuki spent much more time with her parents. She squinted and thought for a moment before saying, "I think I heard Dad mention that there is some kind of cooperation involved."
Just as he was about to call away his satisfactory grandson-in-law, Benwu, he suddenly heard this sentence. After looking the group up and down, the shrewd old man, Benhaozang, asked, "I haven't asked yet, what are your surnames?"
Let's put aside the others I haven't heard of much, especially that guy surnamed Akutagawa; he doesn't seem like an ordinary person. As for Suzuki...
"Your father's name is—"
"Ah, my father, Shiro Suzuki."
Tsukumoto Gozo's demeanor instantly changed. He warmly shook hands with the man, who was about the same age as his granddaughter, treating him as an equal: "It's an honor to meet you. Please give my regards to your father."
Akutagawa Hiko exclaimed, "Wow!"
