Keep busy in the world of Detective Conan

Woo woo woo…!

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the huge and luxurious cruise ship slowly sailed out from the lower right corner of the camera.

At this moment, the sun has gradually set, and a gorgeous orange-red sunset glow has appeared on the horizon, as if dyeing the entire sea surface with a layer of golden glow.

This vast ocean looks particularly beautiful under the reflection of the setting sun. The sparkling sea surface is shining with dazzling light, and the breeze gently blows the waves, creating layers of ripples.

The cruise ship was as majestic and magnificent as a moving palace. Its hull lines were smooth and graceful, and its deck was brightly lit, exuding an intoxicating atmosphere of luxury.

As the cruise ship drifts away, its silhouette becomes smaller and smaller, but it always maintains its unique charm and majesty.

At this wonderful dusk, such a magnificent picture makes people indulge in it and feel the magic and beauty of nature.

At this time, several familiar people appeared next to the cruise ship's guardrail.

The first to appear was our kindhearted beauty and European queen, Xiaolan. She looked at the huge sunset hanging above the sea level and praised excitedly:

"Wow, what a beautiful sunset! I'm so lucky to be on such a luxurious ship!"

"Well, this is all thanks to uncle getting the return ferry time wrong...! That's why we have the chance to ride on such a luxurious ship...! Isn't that right, Xiaolan-nee..."

Conan looked at Xiaolan and Ran talking to him, and quickly complained helplessly about Kogoro Mouri.

At this time, the uncle was sitting on the chair in the back, snoring soundly, and it seemed like he was about to fall down. However, even if he fell, there would be someone to support him, because Hua Lantian was sitting next to him playing with his mobile phone.

"Really? It's a good thing this ship happened to pass by. Otherwise, the four of us would have been stranded on that deserted island for three or four days...!"

Xiaolan turned around and looked at Kogoro Mouri with emotion.

At this time, Hua Lantian, who had been playing with his phone, raised his head and said confidently, "Don't worry, Xiaolan. That kind of situation won't happen. I can contact my men and ask them to pick us up if that time really comes."

"And if you want to take a luxury cruise, you can tell me later and I'll have someone bring mine over so you can enjoy it...!"

Of course, at the same time, he also laughed secretly. In fact, how could he forget this "family harmony" incident? However, in order to better achieve his goal, he still had to pretend that he didn't know that Kogoro Mouri had made a mistake.

This made Conan fall into deep confusion. After all, based on his understanding of Hua Lantian, Hua Lantian must have done this on purpose.

With Hua Lantian's ability and experience, he should be able to sense in advance whether he would miss the time, and it is impossible for him to make such a low-level mistake.

Therefore, Conan firmly believed that Hua Lantian must have some ulterior motives... Next, Conan began to stare at Hua Lantian from time to time, trying to find some clues from his words and actions to uncover the hidden plot behind him.

"Ah, how can this be so embarrassing, Brother Lan Tian, ​​isn't this too much trouble..."

Xiaolan covered her mouth and said embarrassedly.

"It's okay. And I remember that the Suzuki Group also has a luxury cruise ship. I think with Sonoko's personality, they will definitely let you ride it once or even more than once." Hua Lantian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, and said softly.

There seemed to be an indescribable confidence and certainty in his voice, as if he was completely sure of Sonoko's behavior.

Every word in this sentence reveals his understanding of Sonoko's personality and his prediction of what might happen in the future.

Hua Lantian is well aware of Yuanzi's generosity and openness. She likes to enjoy life and is even more willing to share beautiful things with her friends.

For such a person with a distinctive personality, taking friends on a luxury cruise is a piece of cake.

Moreover, given Sonoko's personality, she would probably not just be satisfied with letting the other person sit there once, and there might be more similar experiences waiting for her.

It is conceivable that when Sonoko heard this suggestion, she would agree without hesitation. After all, for her, this is not only a pleasure, but also a way to show her generosity and kindness.

And for the lucky one who is invited, it will undoubtedly be an unforgettable and exciting experience.

"But, Brother Lantian, I think the person who can charter such a huge ship must be very talented...!"

Conan looked at Hua Lantian, who was showing off his wealth, with a look of slight disdain, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

However, at this moment, no one paid attention to Conan's words.

Xiaolan's attention was attracted by a figure standing with them on the side of the ship - she was a very beautiful lady, but her expression was filled with endless sadness, and even crystal clear tears flowed down her face.

Xiaolan walked towards the woman with light steps, her movements were gentle and graceful, as if she was afraid of disturbing the other person.

When she got closer, Xiaolan slowly bent down, her eyes full of concern and sympathy, and asked softly, "Miss, are you okay...?"

The beautiful lady seemed touched by Xiaolan's concern. She stopped crying, stretched out her right hand with slight trembling, and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Then, she straightened her body and stood up from the position she had been leaning on the railing. In the process, she raised her head and looked at Xiaolan, and responded with a mixture of sadness and joy:

"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. It's just... I just suddenly remembered my parents who passed away in a car accident last year. How wonderful it would be if they were still alive... I really want them to see me in my formal dress today and hear their praise and blessings for me..."

"What does the dress look like...?"

Xiaolan muttered to herself strangely.

At this time, a voice came from behind. It was a young man's voice, and the owner of the voice was getting closer and closer.

"What's the matter, Xia Jiang...?"

When Xiaolan heard the voice, she turned around and saw a young and handsome man with a rose on his chest.

(I feel like he looks a bit like that, anyway, he doesn't look very manly. But when he mentioned the hatred between his father and the Usumoto family later, it really felt like └｜゜e゜｜┐)

Seeing this man, the lady ran to his side, grabbed his arm, and pressed her whole body against him. It was obvious that this was the man she had put on the dress for. She called out sweetly,

“Xiao Wu…!”

Then he looked at Xiaolan and the others and confessed, "Actually, today is our big day...!"

"Big, big happy...?!!!"

Xiaolan was even more surprised and asked uncertainly.

"Yeah, because we just had our wedding ceremony on Usumoto Island this morning...!"

Natsue Usamoto introduced herself, as did her husband-in-law, Takeshi Usamoto.

The story between the two of them made Xiaolan, who was already fantasizing about these things, very envious. She clasped her hands together and clenched her fists, saying excitedly:

"Really? Congratulations!"

Then she suddenly remembered something and said, "But why is it held on that island...?"

Natsue Yumoto smiled sheepishly, then explained, "That's because most of the island is our Yumoto family's property, and it enshrines our ancestors. The Yumoto family has a tradition that all family weddings must be held on the island..."

(I really find it quite magical. How many years have you been a member of the Usumoto family? How was it so easy to travel back and forth before we had shipbuilding technology? I don’t think you’d just set out when a huge wave suddenly crashed and sent you back to the island to become a worshipped ancestor…)

"You bastard! Didn't we already have this ship? Why are you letting outsiders on board? How despicable!"

At this moment, a harsh scolding voice suddenly sounded, which scared Xiaolan. She looked towards the source of the voice and found that an old man who was obviously a superior was scolding a middle-aged man.

Then the middle-aged man, showing little fear, kept apologizing, "I'm sorry, Dad, I felt sorry for them, so, so..."

He stuttered for a long time, not daring to say the rest of the words. Then the old man stared at them and finished the rest of the words for him, "You just acted on your own, huh...!"

The old man was Usomoto Gozo. He looked at Conan and Ran with a bad expression, then stared at Usomoto Hokuro in front of him and continued, "You are quite brave...!!!

You made the decision on your own without asking for my consent...!"

Usumoto Gozo's voice was filled with anger and disappointment, and his eyes revealed his dissatisfaction and reproach towards his son-in-law. He had just glanced at Conan and Ran like a sharp blade, as if he wanted to see through them.

“That’s not the case, no…!”

Tsumoto Kitaro quickly denied it. After all, he was the most timid person in the family, and Tsumoto Gosho was indeed the one who had the final say at home. He firmly controlled the Tsumoto family. It could be said that unless he was gone, he would have the final say in the Tsumoto family.

Usagimoto Natsue also stepped forward sheepishly, then said apologetically, "Don't worry about it, my grandfather has been emotionally unstable since the middle of the wedding...!"

"Yeah, ever since you ate the food I cooked...!"

Another new voice appeared, expressing his agreement but seeming helpless.

“Uncle Xiangji…!”

When Xia Jiang saw the person coming, he shouted happily.

"I've known for a long time that Dad hates Western food, but why is he so angry? It's all because my cooking skills are not good enough... There's really nothing I can do~"

That uncle Shoji, let’s say Shoji Tsurumoto, continued, while spreading his hands to express his helplessness.

"That's not true...! No way...!" "Yes, the food you cook is the best...!" The newlyweds quickly tried to smooth things over and comfort their uncle.

"Oh, handsome guy, where did you get this corsage...?"

Shoji Usamoto happened to glance at the boutonniere on the chest of Takeshi Usamoto's suit and asked with a hint of mischief.

"This is what Xia Jiang helped me put on the bus when we were heading back from the wedding...!"

Takeshi Yamoto protected his corsage very carefully, and then looked at his wife lovingly.

"Since I was little, I've had a dream: to give this flower, which only blooms on Usumoto Island, to my beloved, so I helped him get up there...!"

Natsue Usamoto grabbed her husband's arm tightly again and said it proudly.

“I’m really impressed by you…!”

Shoji Masumoto spoke of his niece with a hint of helplessness.

Not far away, a young man with a feminine appearance and who didn't seem to have any cruel intentions was drawing Natsue Usamoto. He was our original murderer, Ichiro Usamoto.

Our former deceased, Usomoto Gozoya, began to dance on the edge of a knife. He turned his head and looked at Usomoto Ichiro who was painting, then said bitterly:

"I'm useless, and my son isn't much better...! He just draws nonsense all day long...! I, the father, won't even say a word to him...!"
