Next, Mori Kogoro

Chapter 37 [037] Hokuro Hamoto

"You are so talkative, believe it or not, I will go talk to my goddaughter?"

Belmode gritted his teeth.

"Hey, hey, don't say it, let me say it."

Xiao Wulang said unhappily: "You said that you are such an adult, why would you go to find a child when you quarrel. Xiaolan is only in high school, she is still a child."

"Don't be poor, just say it."

Belmore was equally upset.

"What else to say, it's just what you think."

"Really...really him?"

"Don't be so loud, please, don't let other people hear it."

"It's just the two of us here, who are you afraid of being heard?"

Having said that, Belmode's voice was still a little lower.

"It's fine if you care about your little angel, why care so much about that brat?"

Kogoro frowned.

"Xiaolan is my little angel, and that kid is the knight who protects the angel."

"Is he a knight? Then what am I? A king?"

"Hee hee, keep it secret."

Looking at Belmode in a good mood, Kogoro shook his head: "Okay, I'm going to withdraw, what are your plans?"

"Plan? Go home with you, is your wife willing?"

"Don't be so ambiguous, in heaven, nothing happened between us except fitness."

"Hey, scumbag, you have a good idea."

Belmord snorted, and suddenly his tone softened: "Since my 'Silver Bullet' is safe and sound, then I can return to the United States with peace of mind. After all, Gin is in this country, and I don't like him very much."

"Then you have to be careful, the United States is more dangerous than here. At most there are more homicides here, while there are shootings every day there. If you walk normally, passers-by will flash a submachine gun and rush at you. "

"If you have time to worry about me, you should care more about yourself."

Belmode said in a deep voice: "Because of you, the organization lost two funding sources one after another. Although these two lines account for a small proportion, according to my understanding of the organization, you will definitely be noticed."

"is it?"

Kogoro raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, I promise the winery won't have time to care about me."

Belmore was stunned: "What do you want to do? Let me tell you, don't do stupid things. The organization is not as weak as you imagined. Once you get serious, not only you, but everyone around you will be in danger..."

Kogoro didn't speak, just waved his hands, turned and left.

half an hour ago.

Xiaolan looked at the phone and said angrily, "What's the matter with Dad, the boat is about to leave, why hasn't he come back, and he hasn't answered the phone."

Conan was lying on the tatami beside him, flipping through the magazine, and casually said, "Uncle, he is with Sister Honest, right?"

"how is this possible……"

Xiaolan and Conan looked at each other, and suddenly stood up at the same time.

"I'm going to the pier."

"I'm going to the clinic."

Their hard work was not in vain. Conan found out that the clinic was closed, and Xiaolan happened to see Makoto Asai boarding the boat alone.

Well, they searched for a long time, but they didn't find any trace of Kogoro.

So when Kogoro appeared...

"Father, it's all your fault. What did you go on, you just came now, and the boats are gone."

Xiaolan put her hands on her hips and growled at Kogoro.

Kogoro shrugged and lazily said: "It's okay, I can't leave today, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow."

"I won't be able to leave tomorrow either. Notices have been posted on the pier. The next ship will be in seven days."

Xiaolan was going crazy.

"Strange, isn't there a ferry every day? How did it become seven days?"

"Who knows, it's all your fault anyway."

"Okay, okay, I'll figure out a way, okay."

Kogoro checked his space bag while walking towards the ticket office at the pier.Now the art museum is continuously providing popularity points, but it is still not enough to unlock a luxury yacht.Even if it is unlocked, the boat cannot be sailed without the captain and sailors, because Kogoro can't sail.

And to unlock the "navigation skill card" requires a lot of popularity.

"Check to see if there are other ships on the pier, and just charter them."

Just as Kogoro was thinking, he looked up and saw a large luxury passenger ship docked at the pier.There is a middle-aged middle-aged mediterranean wearing a suit, who is directing the sailors to deliver supplies to the passenger ship.

"Hi, my name is Mori Kogoro, is this boat yours?"

Kogoro stepped forward to say hello.

The man looked Kogoro up and down, nodded and said, "Hello, my name is Hokuro Hatakemoto, and this ship was contracted by our Banmoto family."

"The Banner Family? The Banner Consortium? I know, it was your Banner Consortium that held a reception with the Suzuki Consortium last time, right?"

Kogoro frowned thinking back.

At that reception, Kudo Shinichi hadn't become Conan yet.

"That's right, that's right, it's a reception organized by our consortium and the Suzuki consortium, and you're here, so what's your relationship with the Suzuki consortium..."

Because he is rich, Kogoro now wears casual clothes, and with the addition of attribute points, Hokuro Hatakemoto sees that Kogoro Mori has a good temperament, so he dare not underestimate him.Now there are rumors that the other party may be related to the Suzuki family, a top consortium, so be careful with her.

"Oh, I'm not from the Suzuki Foundation, but I heard that there are many good wines, so I went to eat and drink..."

Hearing this, Hokuro Banner's face changed slightly, but Kogoro's next words made him glad that he didn't change his face.

"...Later, Suzuki Shiro was complained by his wife because he got drunk. How can you blame me for this? It's obvious that he was overthinking his own abilities and insisted on asking me for a drink."

Hokuro Hagimoto was sweating profusely.

Dare to call the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation by his name, even dare to drink with him, and even get him drunk, what kind of relationship does this have to be able to do this?
Although the Banner family can also be called a consortium, it is a younger brother in front of a giant like the Suzuki consortium.For example, the reception mentioned by Kogoro was nominally held jointly by the Suzuki Foundation and the Hajimoto Foundation, but in fact it was named after the Banzamoto Consortium's life and death. Hokuro Hagimoto was not invited, and the person who went to the reception was the head of the Hatakemoto family. Hashimoto Gozo, Chairman of the Flagmoto Consortium.

"Then... why are you here looking for me?"

Hokuro Hatakemoto took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Oh, it's like this. I came to this small island for business a few days ago, and I planned to leave today. I didn't expect to miss the boarding time, so I want to ask, if I can take the boat back to Tokyo, I can pay the fee .”

Kogoro said.

"Where is this place, you have to help each other when you go out, Mr. Maori, treat it as if this is your own home, please get on board."

Hokuro Hatakemoto was overjoyed when he heard the words, feeling that this was a great opportunity to get closer to the Suzuki family, so he nodded in agreement.

"That would be great, but I'm still taking my daughter, and a little kid..."

"It's okay, all are welcome."

So under the warm hospitality of Hokuro Hatakemoto, the four of Kogoro successfully boarded the luxury liner and got two luxurious suites.

As for this, Hokuro Hamoto kept apologizing, saying that the room was shabby and that Kogoro was too slow to be treated.The harmed Xiaolan and Bai Kogoro, who kept going to Conan, wondered if he was bragging outside again.
