Inside the office.
As soon as Koizumi Hongzi left, Shu Yunwen sat back on the sofa again, raised his hand to look at his watch, and frowned:
"...It's almost half past ten! It takes almost two hours to drive from here to Yokosuka, so we'd better wait until we have lunch and then go there in the afternoon..."
Shu Yunwen muttered, then suddenly turned to look at Matsushita Heisaburo and said, "Mr. Matsushita, do you have anything to do this afternoon?"
"It's nothing." Matsushita Heisaburo immediately bowed and replied, "...If you need it, Master Yunwen, I can be your driver this afternoon..."
According to Heisaburo Matsushita, it is a great honor to be able to drive for Shu Yunwen and serve the "big boss"! ~
As long as he is free, he will never refuse.
"... Then I'll trouble you." Shu Yunwen nodded, and then said, "... Let's have a meal nearby for a while, and then go to the ancient castle to see... By the way, haven't you been to that ancient castle before? Castle? Can you briefly tell me about the situation of the castle? "
"Are you talking about that old castle?" Heisaburo Matsushita organized his language and then replied:
"...The castle is a German-style building built on the top of a mountain. It is very large. When my family and I went on a trip before, we originally just wanted to take a look at the castle that often appeared on TV. Unexpectedly, I was lucky enough to meet the butler and deacon of the castle, and took a brief tour under his guidance..."
When Shu Yunwen heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "Wait! You mean, this castle is not a tourist attraction, but has an owner?"
"Yes!" Heisaburo Matsushita nodded, "...I heard from the housekeeper Sawabe that the castle belongs to the Kasaka family, and the old lady of the Kasaka family used to live in it, but the old lady passed away not long ago. The Kasaka family only has a granddaughter who has lived in France for a long time, so he is the only one left to guard the castle..."
What the hell! The Kasaka family’s castle? The butler named Sawabe? The old lady passed away not long ago? A granddaughter who has lived in France for a long time?
Why do these sound so familiar?
Shu Yunwen thought of Natsumi Kasaka and Kuranosuke Sawabe. The corner of his mouth twitched twice, then turned to ask Matsushita Heisaburo:
"...Mr. Matsushita, the full name of the Sawabe butler you are talking about is not Sawabe Kuranosuke, right?"
Matsushita Heisaburo said: "Ah, how do you know?"
Damn it! It’s really them!
Shu Yunwen was speechless, looking up at the sky——
By the way, do we want it to be such a coincidence?
The last mask we want is actually hidden in the castle of Natsumi Kasaka’s family?
Shu Yunwen murmured in his heart, then thought about it again, and suddenly felt that it was really possible——
You must know that Rasputin had a close relationship with the royal family. After his death, the "Sneer of the Cruel" was likely to be taken away by the royal family and kept in its collection.
And Kasaka Natsumi said before that the "Egg of Memories" is an heirloom of the Kasaka family. Since Kasaka Natsumi's ancestors can get the "Egg of Memories", a secret treasure of the Russian royal family, how can they get the "Cruel Man's Egg"? It’s not surprising to sneer...
But speaking of which, it seems that we are going to the Kasaka family’s castle to find a coffin! There might be an ancestor of the Kasaka family in that coffin!
Our behavior of visiting other people's castles, opening other people's coffins, and stealing other people's treasures is unethical no matter how you think about it!
Well, the point is to open someone else's coffin. If the old man in the previous life knew about this, he would be beaten to death...
Thinking about this, Shu Yunwen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth twice, and then muttered: "...It's a pity that the 'Egg of Memories' has been taken away by Lupine. Otherwise, we could have exchanged the 'Egg of Memories' for that Put on a mask..."
Looking at Kasaka Natsumi’s previous behavior, she obviously values that egg more!
If the egg was still in his hand, there would be no problem in exchanging it for "the sneer of the cruel".
Shu Yunwen muttered, and Matsushita Heisaburo next to him was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "...Master Yunwen, you just said that you want to use the 'Egg of Memory' to exchange for the mask you want?"
"Yes!" Shu Yunwen nodded, "The 'Memory Egg' that was previously exhibited in Osaka seems to be an heirloom of the Kasaka family..."
Shu Yunwen briefly explained the relationship between the Kasaka family and the "Egg of Memory", and then said: "...So, if the 'Egg of Memory' is still in my hand, use it to exchange masks with Natsumi Kasaka. , absolutely no problem..."
After Shu Yunwen finished speaking, Matsushita Heisaburo said "uh" and said with a strange expression: "...It turns out that Miss Kasaka Natsumi mentioned by Secretary Nishino on the phone is the owner of that castle..."
"Secretary Nishino's phone number? What phone number?" Shu Yunwen asked strangely.
Matsushita Heisaburo organized his language and replied with a suppressed smile: "... Mr. Yunwen, you probably don't know yet. This morning, Secretary Nishino called and said that Lupine III gave the 'Egg of Memories' to him yesterday. Miss Kasaka Natsumi, after Miss Kasaka discovered the 'Egg of Memory' on the cruise ship, she gave the 'Egg of Memory' to the Suzuki family and asked the Suzuki family to hand it over to you..."
"...The egg is now at Suzuki's house!"
Shu Yunwen said "ha" when he heard this, and looked confused: "...What did you say? The 'Memory Egg' is now at Suzuki's house? Why didn't Mr. Suzuki and the others tell me?"
"Hmm... I heard from Secretary Nishino that they don't want to disturb you and Sumei-san's fun. Secretary Nishino called the office specifically, probably because he wanted me to tell you..." Matsushita Heisaburo explained, Shu Yunwen His expression is so weird——
By the way, what the hell is this situation?
Lupine the Third actually gave the egg to Natsumi Kasaka? Did he steal the egg just to return it to its original owner?
And Natsumi Kasaka, she actually returned the "Memory Egg" again... This is really...
"...Good guy!" Shu Yunwen still had a weird expression on his face. He sent a good guy card to Natsumi Kasaka, thought for a while and continued:
"...and Lupine, he is also a good person!"
This Lupine is our favorite!
…
At the same time, there was a utility room in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
Lupine III disguised himself as Takagi. Looking at Takagi Wataru who was stripped down to his underwear and tied into a rice dumpling, he suddenly sneezed twice in a row and scratched his head strangely——
Well, why are you sneezing again for no apparent reason? Could it be that another beautiful woman has fallen in love with me?
Lupine the Third said with a smile, secretly walked out of the utility room, walked directly to Kaito's disguised Shiratori, laughed and said: "Officer Shiratori, I heard that you are going to Kasaka's house in the afternoon. The castle is investigating a murder on a cruise ship, can I go with you?”
"Ah?" Kaito turned to look at "Takagi", a little confused, "...Takagi, are you going too? But..."
"But what?" Lupine III smiled slightly, "...Is there any reason why Officer Shiratori can't let me go?"
"Hahaha... Of course not!~" Kaito shook his head quickly, "... Since you want to go, let's go together!"
"Really? Thank you so much, Officer Shiratori!"
Lupine III thanked him, and then the two thieves looked at each other and laughed "haha" with their own motives. The laughter was so embarrassing...
