Next, Mori Kogoro

Chapter 38 [Chapter 038] There are only two episodes in the animation version
As the sun sets, the fiery sunset glows, reflecting the sea water into a piece of red, like silk and satin, completely opposite to Kogoro's style when he first came here.

"It's so beautiful."

Xiaolan and Conan stood on the bow deck, leaning on the railing, feeling the sea breeze.

"Thank you, if it weren't for me, how could you take this luxury liner?"

Kogoro, who took off his suit and changed into casual clothes, was wearing sunglasses, lying on a recliner with a glass of drink beside him.

"Yeah, if it wasn't for your half-hour delay, Dad, we would have gone on the boat with Dr. Makoto Asai."

Xiaolan snorted.

"You girl, I don't know what is good or bad, how can an ordinary ferry compare with this luxury passenger ship."

Kogoro shook his head, took a sip of his drink, and closed his eyes happily.

He already remembered which case it was.

Passenger ship, rich family, family property, undercover, love and hate, indecent, murder...

In South Korea, there are [-] episodes of TV dramas, and there are only two episodes in the animation version.

While Kogoro was dozing off, Xiaolan had already met the heroine of the case, Xiajiang Hatake, and successfully obtained an important clue that she had just married her son-in-law, Xiaowu Hatake.

Just when Xiaolan was expressing her congratulations, a roar came from not far away: "Damn it, hasn't this ship been taken over by our banner family? Why are there outsiders? What's wrong with you, Beilang? Do you think I'm old enough for you to be the master of the house?"

Everyone heard the sound and looked, only to see a tall old man with white hair and beard, but full of spirit, spitting at Hokuro Hagimoto.

He lives in the Banner family, the chairman of the Banner Group - Hashimoto Hozo.

He was obviously in control of the power on weekdays, and he was used to being superior, so he didn't give Hokuro Hamoto a chance to explain, and directly scolded him bloody.

"Hey, hey, this old man is too domineering."

Conan complained in his heart.

"I'm sorry, when grandpa got married today, he felt a little bit wrong, and it wasn't aimed at you."

Xia Jiang quickly explained.

"It should be because of the Western food I cook."

A middle-aged man came over, "I knew Dad hated Western food, but I didn't expect him to be so angry, so I lost my temper on the spot."

"That's not true, Uncle Xiang Er, your western food is very good."

Xia Jiang hurriedly introduced: "This is my uncle, Shoji Hatakemoto."

And at this moment, Gozo Hatakemoto finally finished cursing, and when he was panting, Hozoro Hatakemoto stepped forward and whispered something in his ear.

After Hatamoto Gozo heard this, his face immediately changed slightly, and he glanced sideways at Kogoro, who was lying on the recliner not far away, hesitated for a moment, and then coughed dryly: "Okay, just this once, let's not make an example, understand?" ?”

Hokuro Hatakemoto nodded obediently.

Hozo Hashimoto was about to go back to his room when he suddenly saw his grandson who was painting behind Hokuro Hagimoto, that is, Hokuro Hagimoto's son Ichiro Hagamoto, whose expression changed suddenly after he calmed down just now, and he said sharply, "What kind of incompetence is there?" Dad, what kind of useless son is there, what's the use of drawing ghosts every day. Unrealistic dreams, just give up as soon as possible."

"Yes, yes, that's what my father taught me."

Hokuro Hatakemoto is still a good boy.

"Hmph, Xiao Wu, come to my room later, I have something to tell you."

After finishing speaking, Hatakemoto Gozo was about to turn around and leave.

At this moment, a lazy voice suddenly sounded: "Oh, isn't this Mr. Banner. I haven't seen you for so long, and your old body is still full of energy."

Kogoro turned over and sat up from the recliner.

Since the Hatakemoto family kindly let him rub the boat, in return, don't let this voyage be stained with blood.

"Haha, Mr. Maori, you still have the same demeanor."

Hatakemoto Gozo didn't look like he was reprimanding his son-in-law just now, and walked forward with a smile on his face, "The last time you showed your glory and made Chairman Shiro Suzuki drunk, I will remember it deeply in my heart."

Kogoro stood up and shook hands with Gozo Hashimoto: "Thanks to Mr. Hokuro's kindness this time, the three of us were not trapped on that island. Speaking of which, I have to thank President Hashimoto."

"There, there, I hope you don't blame our banner family for the poor hospitality."

"Haha, President Banner is too polite." Kogoro blinked, "Do you have time now, let's chat?"

What can I talk to you about?

Hatakemoto Gozo was a little puzzled. He was so enthusiastic about Mori Kogoro because of the face of the Suzuki Foundation.To be honest, after that reception, he inquired about Kogoro's information, and when he learned that he was only a third-rate detective, he was extremely disdainful in his heart.

Even to a certain extent, he even looked down on Suzuki Shiro, the chairman of the Suzuki Foundation and Suzuki Sonoko's father.He thinks that Suzuki Shiro is just a good person to support his life, but in fact he is not qualified to control such a huge property at all.As the boss of a dignified consortium, he would compete with a third-rate detective for a drink at the reception, but he lost the fight. Isn't this a fool, what is it?
For a while, Hatamoto Gozo thought a lot. He thought that Kogoro was the kind of villain who pretended to be ugly and stupid to curry favor with the rich and powerful, and now this villain wanted to curry favor with himself.

It's no wonder Hatakemoto Gozo thinks so, after all, it's the kind of people who are surrounded by the rich, powerful and powerful.

"Ha ha……"

Although Hatakemoto Kozo still had a smile on his face, he couldn't hide the sarcasm in his eyes: "I have something to do now, so that's fine. After dinner, I will definitely have a long talk with Mr. Mori and have a good chat."

Kogoro has been a man for two lives. He was a police officer first and then a detective.Under the seemingly carefree appearance, there is a delicate heart hidden.Just looking at Hatakemoto Gozo's expression, one could tell what the old boy was thinking.

I have a hot face and a cold butt.

Kogoro immediately didn't bother to talk to Hozo Hatake, he had seen a lot of rich people who felt good about themselves like this.If it wasn't for the hitchhiking... no, for the sake of free riding, I wouldn't have asked Hatamoto Kozo for an answer.

"Actually, I don't have anything important to do. Since President Banner has something important to do, let's talk about it later."

Kogoro shrugged, and lay down again indifferently.

Anyway, the person who is going to die is not himself.

As for President Banner, you can ask for more blessings.

Seeing Kogoro's sluggish appearance, Hatakemoto Gozo felt even more displeased, snorted coldly, and walked away.

After he had gone far away, Hokuro Hatakemoto, who had always lowered his head, dared to raise his head, and stared at the direction Hatakemoto Gozo left with resentment on his face.

"Don't get excited, husband."

A middle-aged woman in a kimono appeared behind Hokuro Banner at some point, and sneered in a low voice: "Anyway, Dad is old, and he doesn't have a few years to live. When he leaves, revive the banner of the Banner family." The burden will naturally fall on your shoulders."

She is the daughter of the Hatakemoto family -- Mariko Hatakemoto.

"Not necessarily, aunt."

The voice of a woman smelling of tea rang out, causing Kogoro, who was pretending to be asleep, to open his eyes secretly.

I saw a short-haired woman wearing a black evening dress with a backless back, showing a hot figure, and her whole body was full of jewels, hugging a man with yellow hair and a naughty face.

She is the older sister of Haemoto Haemoto, Akie Hagmoto, and her husband, Tatsuo Hagmoto.
