"Ah...ah...it hurts...let me die...um..."
In Anming's house, Anming Guizhi had become bone-shattered after days of torture. After a wailing cry, he finally stopped breathing as he wished.
"Takashi!"
Mrs. Anmei, who was guarding Takashi Anmei's bedside, let out a mournful cry and fainted at the same time.
In such a large Anming residence, Mrs. Anming is now the only living person. All the bodyguards and servants have been dismissed. After losing the 5 billion yen obtained from selling the sacred artifacts of the Hmong people, the Anming family is completely in trouble. Ming Xiuxi had to cut down on all unnecessary expenses. Even this mansion had been urgently bought by An Ming Xiuxi, and the family would move out within seven days.
But even so, the funding gap for Anming Construction was still huge, and Anming Hidehi had to continue to sell off his properties. In the past few days, he and his eldest son had been running around looking for buyers. Even though he knew that his younger son's death was approaching, he had no time to stay. The youngest son saw him for the last time.
And Yan Kai's "contribution" is indispensable in this. In order to give the Anming family a "decent" ending, Yan Kai specifically entrusted Beishan Xiongwu to pressure Anming Construction, so that Anming Construction must immediately We must pay all compensation to the families of the deceased employees and the construction company, and do not give Anming Construction a chance to breathe. The Anming family must be buried with Anming Takashi.
After Anming Takashi died, Yan Kai, who was hiding outside Anming's house and listening to the noise, sighed. Of course, the object of his sigh was not Anming Takashi, but another person whose life was connected to his.
Lu Xuer's eyes turned red. She knew that when An Ming Guizhi died, her best friend Luo Rihongxia had also passed away.
"Mei, don't be sad now, we have more important things to do now."
Lu You hugged his daughter and comforted her.
"I know Dad."
Lu Xuer nodded.
"Dad, when we get the sacred object back, can we use it to bury Sister Hongxia with her?"
Lu Xuer said to Lu You.
Luo Rihongxia couldn't see the holy object before she died, so let the holy object accompany her to sleep!
"Okay, I will tell my ancestors when I get back, and my ancestors will definitely agree."
Lu You agreed without thinking.
A mere "broken stone" is really not as valuable as the lives of the Yin Miao people in the eyes of the Yin Miao people. Previously, the sacred object was not valued by the Yin Miao people because of its unpleasant appearance. Now it has lost the life of a member of the Yin Miao people. This so-called holy object is even less popular. No one would object to it being buried with the setting sun and red clouds.
The ancestor Lu You talks about is the patriarch of the Yin Miao tribe, Lu You's wife, grandpa, an old monster who was born in the late Qing Dynasty and lived for more than 130 years. Because he is too old, he needs to be transformed every ten years. He once transformed into a cocoon and rejuvenated his body by transforming into a cocoon. Now was an important moment for him to transform into a cocoon. Otherwise, the people who came to Japan this time might not be Lu You and Lu Xuer, but the top master Yin Yin. The leader of the Miao ethnic group.
"Then, the next step is to get back the funeral objects of Luo Rihongxia!"
Yan Kai looked far away in the direction of "Water Moon Palace".
……………………
Standing on a speedboat, facing the strong sea breeze, Kasumigaoka Shiyu looked at the huge building standing in the center of the lake in the distance, feeling a little shocked in her heart.
The name of "Suigetsu Palace" contains the word "water", but Kasumigaoka Shiyu has never thought that this "Suigetsu Palace" is really built on water!
From the appearance, the "Water Moon Palace" located in the center of the lake looks like a huge three-quarter sphere. The exterior is made of colorless and transparent glass, which sparkles in the sunlight. Kasumigaoka Shiyu looks at it from a distance. , it feels like a huge pearl.
He is worthy of being a jewelry king who loves jewelry so much that even jewelry exhibition halls have to look like jewelry.
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu said in his heart.
"This 'Water Moon Palace' took one year to complete. This lake is an artificial lake dug by hand. It is about three thousand meters in diameter and is a perfect circle. The 'Water Moon Palace' is located in the center of the lake, which is also round. The building covers an area of over 100,000 square meters and is equipped with the most advanced security system. It is said that it can face the strong attack of well-trained mercenaries, not to mention mere thieves. Nishikawa Jewelry spent huge sums of money to build it. Although It is said to be an exhibition hall, but everyone knows very well that this is Masaaki Saikawa's personal collection, and the jewelry displayed there are all Masaaki Saikawa's personal belongings and are not for sale, only barter is accepted."
Nito Hisako, who had done enough homework, told Kasumigaoka Shiwa.
"Bravo!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't help but exclaimed and turned his personal collection room into an exhibition hall. Sure enough, the happiness of rich people could not be imagined by ordinary people!
Just when Kasumigaoka Shiyu was sighing, he suddenly felt like something was passing by quickly beside him. It sounded a bit like a flapping dragonfly, but it seemed to be much bigger than a dragonfly.
"Fei Shasha, what was that just now?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked Shinto Hisako.
"That one just now should be a drone."
Nito Hisako also felt it, she answered Nakiri Erina.
"It is said that Xichuan Jewelry has deployed more than 10,000 drones on this artificial lake to patrol the lake 24 hours a day. Once an unknown unit is discovered, the drones will initiate an alarm."
Speaking of this, Nito Feisako lowered his voice and secretly said to Shiyu Kasumigaoka: "Miss Shiyu, I heard that these drones are equipped with tranquilizer guns. They will even attack intruders directly after discovering them. Do you know if it’s true…”
"Tranquilizer gun...if it were shot on this artificial lake, wouldn't it be easy to drown someone?"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu was shocked.
If an incapacitated person slips and falls into the lake, the consequences can be imagined.
"That's what I said, so I don't know if it's true or not. I just heard there are such rumors, so I'll tell you about it."
Nito Hisako wasn't too sure about the news either.
"Anyway, I feel like the defense work this time is not complete..."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu began to have a rough idea of how heavily guarded the "Water Moon Palace" was.
Yes, this jewelry exhibition hall will house all the collections of Nishikawa Masaaki. I heard that the Japanese jewelry king does not play with young models, does not like luxury cars, and has no interest in other enjoyments. He spends all his energy on When it comes to collecting jewelry, people in the industry even call him "Evil Dragon" behind his back, because like the evil dragon in Western legends, he likes to collect sparkling jewelry, and he himself obviously has no praise for this. Not only is he not disgusted by his nickname, but he is also complacent about it, obviously not shying away from his hobbies at all.
In addition to his love for sparkling jewelry, Nishikawa Masaaki also has a characteristic similar to that of a dragon, that is, he will be merciless to those who dare to touch his jewelry, as evidenced by these security systems with the intention of killing intruders.
"That is to say, it is more than a thousand meters from the lake shore to the Water Moon Palace. Only boats under the name of Xichuan Jewelry are allowed in the artificial lake. If anyone wants to swim to the Water Moon Palace, drones patrolling the lake It is easy to detect intruders. You must know that these drones are very flexible and fast, and can reach a speed of one hundred kilometers per hour. Once the intruder is discovered by these drones, even if the drone is not equipped with a tranquilizer gun, "
Nito Feisako nodded, she also felt that this security system was very powerful.
The speedboat soon arrived at "Suigetsu Palace". Kasumigaoka Shiu, Nakiri Erina, and Nito Hisako jumped out of the speedboat. As soon as they landed, a drone flew in front of the three of them, in the middle of the fuselage. There was a probe, staring at the three people for a while, as if confirming something, and immediately flew away after the confirmation was completed.
"Is this checking our identities?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu said in surprise.
"Yes, the drone will confirm our identity again before we enter the Water Moon Palace. That's why I asked Shiyu to send me your photo before, just to be included in the guest list. If we find someone who is not on the guest list As soon as you set foot in the Water Moon Palace, security personnel will come over immediately to deal with the intruders."
Nakiri Erina said to Kasumigaoka Shiwa.
"But being swept around by a machine like this is really a bit unpleasant..."
Nakiri Erina frowned and said, she always felt like she was being ruled by a machine.
"Japan's technology is actually so powerful!"
Kasumigaoka Shiha didn't pay attention to Nakiri Erina's words, but let out an exclamation. What happened to her just now was so sci-fi that she couldn't help herself.
"No, it's not Japan's technology." Nito Feishasha shook his head, "I heard that the drones of 'Shuiyue Palace' were purchased from the Central Plains, so this should be the technology of the Central Plains!"
"..."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu fell into silence.
Unfortunately, I thought Japan had its future, bah!
Then I thought carefully about the logo on the drone that just flew in front of me. It seemed that it was indeed the logo of a brand on the head of a drone in the Central Plains. Well, Japan had indeed lost.
That's right. How could Japan, which is unwilling to even install more surveillance cameras in public places, develop this kind of facial recognition technology for drones? Let’s develop drone candid photography technology!
Kasumigaoka Shiyu, who is well aware of the urinary nature of his nation, thought so.
Entering the interior of "Suigetsu Palace" from the outside, the interior is resplendent. Pieces of jewelry that look very precious are placed in display stands. Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt like his eyes were being stabbed as soon as he entered.
When he saw the prices of the jewelry on the display stand, they were very good. Kasumigaoka Shiyu felt like his eyes were being stabbed again.
"Fei Shasha, doesn't it say that these jewels are only accepted in exchange?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu asked Shinto Hisako.
Nito Hisako thought for a while and said: "I think this may be because Nishikawa Jewelry intends to use the enthusiasm of this opening ceremony to stimulate sales. After all, this 'Water Moon Palace' is expensive to build. If it is only used for It would be a shame to use it as a jewelry exhibition hall. It may also be used as a sales point for high-end jewelry in the future.”
Eat more fish and use everything. This is the normal operation of all large groups, even Totsuki Group. In addition to being used as teaching facilities, many facilities in Totsuki Academy are also open to the outside world. The most famous one is Totsuki Resort. , it was originally a training base, but later it became a resort that is famous far and near. It is now the business card unit of Totsuki Group, bringing huge wealth to Totsuki Academy every year. To be honest, every year for the six The loss of money due to the suspension of the operation of the resort after five days and five nights of training and accommodation was in the hundreds of millions, which made Nito Hisako, who took over the operation of Totsuki Academy, heartbroken.
Otherwise, this year’s training accommodation should be changed to another place. It would be too wasteful to stop the operation of the resort every year just because of the training accommodation. It would be better to change the training accommodation into a "moon festival", which can bring huge financial benefits to the school. Revenue activities can assess students on the one hand and squeeze their value on the other, so this year's financial report will look better.
Nito Hisako gradually began to think about work.
As the saying goes, love what you do, and Nito Feisako has already vowed to devote her whole life to Miss Erina. Her biggest ideal in the future is to die at her job.
"I see……"
Kasumigaoka Shiu nodded slightly after hearing Nito Hiisako's answer.
As expected of a big capitalist, he can turn his hobby into a business and not only make money without spending any money, no wonder he can become the jewelry king of Japan.
"Shiba-senpai! Miss Nakiri! Miss Nito!"
A familiar voice sounded, and Kasumigaoka Shiyu couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound, with a smile on his face.
"Xiaolan, you are here too!"
Mao Lilan picked up the skirt of the dress, trotted to Kasumigaoka Shiyu, and said very happily: "Yes, Yuanzi insisted on dragging me here!"
One can imagine Mao Lilan's excitement when she saw an acquaintance among a group of strangers.
She has always been a "poor" girl who has to rush to the supermarket to buy food at limited time specials. In such a high-end and luxurious place, Mao Lilan feels a little uncomfortable even breathing.
At the previous banquet hosted by Suzuki Jiroji, Mao Lilan thought it was nothing because the host was a good friend of hers and she was accompanied by a group of acquaintances.
But this time only Suzuki Sonoko came with her, and Mao Lilan began to feel nervous. Suddenly she found three acquaintances, which made Mao Lilan feel relaxed.
Behind Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko slowly walked over, keeping a smile on his face, but curling his lips in his heart, didn't I see that you have been worried about that reasoning madman, so I pulled you here!
Yes, Kudo Shinichi is here too. As a social celebrity, Kudo Shinichi was also invited to the opening ceremony. Of course, he was invited not because he wanted him to deal with the Phantom Thieves, but because he has a high degree of topicality, such as , how do you feel about yourself being reduced from the "savior of the Metropolitan Police Department" to a has-been detective? What kind of psychological gap is there in the process? Many reporters really want to discuss the psychological journey with Kudo Shinichi.
Of course, this was a joke. In fact, the invitation list for the opening ceremony of "Suigetsu Palace" had been drawn up more than half a year ago. At that time, Kudo Shinichi was at the height of his popularity, so he was naturally on the invitation list, but In only about half a year, Kudo Shinichi changed from a famous detective to a "person not related to the case" who could not even enter the crime scene. This change was really fast.
But the Japanese people are very rigid in doing things. The list was drawn up half a year ago. As long as Kudo Shinichi is not dead, an invitation will be sent to him. Otherwise, with Kudo Shinichi's current reputation, he may not be qualified to participate in the opening ceremony. , after all, a has-been detective is worse than a dog.
