Conan wants to lie down but won't let him
Chapter 274 The inheritance is gone!?
"Sister, this is not a good thing. Dad just passed away, and you are discussing the inheritance here." Shoji Hatamoto couldn't stand it anymore, so he came to Mariko Hatamoto and reminded her to keep a low profile.
"Hmph! Stop pretending. I'm telling you, don't think I don't know that you secretly went to borrow money from Dad to open a shop, and he gave you a good scolding instead. Am I right?"
In response to Shoji Hatamoto's kind reminder, Mariko Hatamoto was not polite at all and told his little secret without mercy.
"Hey, hey, hey, how many secrets has this old lady overheard? She can't be lying outside Mr. Hatamoto's door all day long, eavesdropping on his secrets, right?"
When Conan saw this scene, he immediately gave it a dead fish eye as a comment, and secretly made up in his mind the ugly life of this big family in front of him who only cared about money and exposed each other's shortcomings.
When Shoji Hatamoto heard what Mariko Hatamoto said, his face changed immediately and he was unable to move. He looked like he was being controlled by Mariko Hatamoto.
"Don't you need money too? Just be happy!" Seeing that Shoji Hatamoto gradually calmed down, Mariko was very satisfied and her tone also slowed down.
"I'm sorry, but there's something I need to inform you all. The master made a will a long time ago just in case."
Just when Mariko Hatamoto was getting carried away and making plans to divide the inheritance, the butler Suzuki couldn't stand it anymore and spoke to everyone, especially to Mariko Hatamoto.
"What did you say?" A sudden heavy blow woke up Mariko Hatamoto who was daydreaming. Mariko Hatamoto asked in disbelief.
"I think it will be announced at the consortium's headquarters in the next few days..." Butler Suzuki continued.
"Ah!? Then... could it be that..." Hatamoto Ryuo also thought of something with a very bad expression.
"All the inheritance belongs to..." Hatamoto Akie also thought of the answer in horror. Of course, it was not just Hatamoto Akie. The image of Hatamoto Natsue popped up in the minds of everyone in the Hatamoto family.
"Xia Jiang!!!" They all gave the answer almost in unison.
It seems that everyone has always known that Hatamoto Gozo wants to leave all his inheritance to Hatamoto Xiajiang, but no one is willing to face it. No wonder they have been excluding Xiajiang. It turns out that it is all about money.
"Yes, the Hatamoto Group will be managed by Miss Xia Jiang. This is what the will says." Seeing that everyone had already guessed it, Butler Suzuki directly announced this fact.
"This...this...how is this possible?" Hatamoto Mariko widened her eyes, unable to accept this fact. This answer was more painful than the death of her own father!
Of course, even though his father had just passed away, he didn't feel sad at all. He was looking forward to taking over the Hatamoto Group with great enthusiasm.
Now he realized that all his efforts were in vain, as the inheritance had long been left to Xia Jiang by Hatamoto Gozo in his will. His expression was simply amazing.
That expression of disbelief and despair, which she had not shown before when her biological father died, was now fully displayed. Love and money are the real fathers of Mariko Hatamoto.
In her heart, Hatamoto Gozo is worthless. If Hatamoto Gozo's death had not allowed her to inherit the estate, she probably would not care about this old man at all. Such a weak father-daughter relationship is rare.
So at the beginning, even Xiaolan and Conan thought that Hatamoto Mariko was Hatamoto Gozo's daughter-in-law. This attitude was not like the attitude of a daughter towards her father. Even her son-in-law Hatamoto Hokuro treated his father-in-law better than her.
This is Mariko Hatamoto's attitude and emotion towards her biological father Hatamoto Gozo, but she is completely sincere when treating her husband and son Hatamoto Ichiro.
The contrast between the two before and after is too drastic. How can a person treat two generations above and below him, who have the same direct blood relationship, with such outrageous differences in emotional treatment? It's really amazing.
Of course, it's not just Hatamoto Mariko. Almost all the members of the Hatamoto family are weird. Several other direct blood relatives also have their own ulterior motives. If Fujiwara Hiroshi were in Hatamoto Gozo's position, there would be no choice except Hatamoto Natsue.
However, now, seeing the ugly behavior of the Hatamoto family after the murder of Hatamoto Gozo, he smiled without saying a word. The more chaotic the Hatamoto family was, the more beneficial it would be for his subsequent plans.
"Damn it! If I can't get a penny, what's the point of my marriage to Qiu Jiang?" Hatamoto Ryuo was filled with righteous indignation and blurted out what was in his mind.
The yellow-haired man has no feelings and only wants to make money. He has no interest in the woman named Akiie who has a great figure and is dressed revealingly. He only cares about money.
"You...what are you talking about? Are you marrying me for my grandfather's property?" Upon hearing this, Hatamoto Akie was incredulous and questioned Hatamoto Ryuo angrily.
Ryuo Hatamoto originally spoke out his true feelings only because he was too shocked by the news. Now that he had said it, he decided to just go for it.
"That's absolutely right, otherwise who would marry a shrew like you? Am I crazy?" Well, it turns out that a hot body can only provide temporary enjoyment and pleasure.
The most important thing in getting along with each other in real life is personality. Hatamoto Akie's personality is completely different from the quiet Xia Jiang.
Hatamoto Ryuo felt that the reason he could still tolerate Hatamoto Akiie's unreasonable behavior from time to time was really because of the money. He kept telling himself to be patient, to be patient for the sake of money that he could squander at will.
Now Butler Suzuki has directly extinguished this beautiful dream, and after he accidentally let the cat out of the bag, he directly confronted Hatamoto Akiie.
"You are a good-for-nothing guy. You are lazy and eat all day long. You are just waiting to die. Sooner or later, you will be finished!" Hatamoto Akiie never thought that her husband, who usually obeyed her in everything, would be like this.
Conan, who was sitting behind them, had a classic pair of dead fish eyes and was eating melon with Xiaolan. The Hatamoto family was really more explosive than the other.
The disclosure of the news about the will arrangement of Suzuki's butler made everyone see what it was like to witness a large-scale scene of the breakdown of family relationships.
Fujiwara Hiroshi was not surprised at all, as he had long seen through the true nature of this family. The previous harmony was all superficial.
The superficial harmony is maintained because of some financial interests. Such a mob will cause chaos on their own without his intervention.
