Unlike the eldest young master Takahiro Tone, who has begun to embrace treasures everywhere, his younger brother Kosuke Tone is obviously much calmer.
After swimming aboard, he first went to the cabin to find a suitable wooden board and placed it on the railings of the small cargo ship and the stone wall walkway, so that the people behind him could board the ship directly without swimming.
"Thank you very much, Second Young Master~" Walking to the deck, Mei Ling winked at Tone Kosuke and thanked her.
"No need to say that."
Kosuke Tone looked at everyone, then looked back at his brother who was still immersed in many treasures, and said helplessly:
"Brother, he has always been very impatient, so please don't take it too seriously..."
"Well... don't worry, I think most of us won't care. After all... we are not the ones who can really inherit these treasures, right?"
Mei Ling replied with a smile, and at the same time gave Kitakami Kazuhiko a meaningful look.
Among the three heirs designated by Eijiro Tone, he is the only one who is still alive. If nothing else happens, according to Eijiro Tone's will, these treasures will eventually belong to Kazuhiko Kitakami.
Well, if nothing else happens...
"Don't say that, Miss Mei Ling." Kitakami Kazuhiko shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I have said before, no matter what the final result is, I will never inherit these inheritances again, and this will not change..."
"Master Kazuhiko..." When the old housekeeper Kurahashi Motoaki, who had been following everyone, heard what he said, he raised his head and looked at him blankly.
While these people were talking, Bai Heqing and Mary entered the cabin of the small cargo ship.
The two of them have not forgotten the purpose of coming to this island.
The boxes on the deck were all filled with gold and silver jewelry, but there were no cultural relics that Black Rose wanted, so the two had no choice but to search in the cabin.
"I didn't expect to actually find a treasure." Mary said with a smile as she opened a room and walked in.
"And there are boxes of treasures just like in the legend. It's really surprising... But then again, the way Eijiro Tone obtained these treasures was not clean. He had been hiding them for the past fifteen years. Okay, so we didn't run into any trouble.
But now, it is not that simple to inherit a batch of treasures of unknown origin..."
Although Mary's words were not clearly stated, the meaning was already very obvious.
There is no way to inherit the treasures left by Eijiro Tone through normal legal channels. The two young masters of the Tone family cannot explain the origin of these treasures.
In other words, there is no way to explain it. After all, these treasures were stolen by Eijiro Tone through trickery. They do not belong to him fundamentally. From a historical perspective, they do not belong to Singapore. It can even be said that they do not belong to the British Empire...
If anything, they should belong to those colonial countries that were once plundered by the British Empire. However, times have changed. Now more than a hundred years have passed. Unless they are highly marked cultural relics, who can tell the rest of the gold and silver jewelry? Do you know which country they belong to?
Of course, this is not something Bai Heqing should worry about.
Anyway, this batch of inheritance has nothing to do with him anyway, and he is not the one who should have a headache. He only needs to do what he should do.
But no matter what, if there are indeed cultural relics on this ship, he will definitely find a way to help Black Rose preserve them.
As for the emotional eldest son of the Ligen family... Bai Heqing did not consider his opinion.
After all, he is not a good man and a believer in women, and his moral bottom line has always been relatively flexible. Again, on this isolated island, he and Mary are basically invincible in terms of combat effectiveness.
There was only one question that Bai Heqing had to think about, and that was how to contact Black Rose afterwards.
Before landing on the island, Bai Heqing had made an agreement with Black Rose, asking Black Rose to come to the island tomorrow to pick him up and leave.
The reason why it is tomorrow is because tomorrow happens to be the seventh day he comes to London, and it is also the last day his visa expires.
No matter whether Bai Heqing finds the whereabouts of these inheritances by then, he will choose to leave.
Of course, this also means that he has lost the deal with Black Rose and is willing to admit defeat. At that time, he will no longer ask Black Rose for the missing batch of cultural relics in Japan.
Although there is still the option of using his strong background to apply for a visa urgently, Bai Heqing will not do this.
Seven days is long enough. Keiko's health has been getting worse and worse in the past few years. He must go back quickly...
But now it seems that he is the winner.
Opening a wooden box in the room, it was filled with cotton and straw used to ease collisions. Bai Heqing reached in and grabbed it, and fished out a porcelain vase.
This porcelain vase is very beautiful, and the patterns on the vase are also very artistic and beautiful. Unfortunately, Bai Heqing doesn't understand these things and has difficulty appreciating them.
Even so, since they were placed on this ship and preserved with such care, it seemed that they were the cultural relics that Black Rose wanted.
Silently stuffing the porcelain bottle back, Bai Heqing noted the location of the box, then turned around to open another box.
Anyway, he only needs to be responsible for writing it down. As for how to tell the country where these cultural relics belong in the future, that is the matter of Black Rose.
"I remember that Black Rose made an agreement with us before that she would pick us up by boat tomorrow? How will we take these things away then?"
At this time, Mary suddenly asked.
After the two of them checked one room in tacit agreement, they quickly left and went to the next room.
"Mary, did you notice that gate when you came down before?" Bai Heqing did not answer her directly, but asked instead.
On the stone wall of the underground cavity in front of the small cargo ship, there was a gate that was manually dug out. He had specially observed before that the height and width of this gate were just enough for the small cargo ship to pass through.
The only problem is that the gate is not at the same level as the water level in the underground cavity, but is several meters higher.
But this is not a big problem. As long as they can control the water tower on the island to continue pumping water into the underground cavity, so that the water level inside continues to rise, the small cargo ship can successfully leave the underground cave. The hole goes outside.
When the time comes to meet the boat that Black Rose comes to pick up, Bai Heqing's mission will be completed.
"Hey! What are you doing?!"
While the two were discussing, a fierce quarrel suddenly sounded on the deck, and the sound sounded like it was the eldest son of the Ligen family.
【problem occurs? 】
Bai Heqing and Mary looked at each other and finally decided to walk to the deck.
