After the helicopter dropped Zhao Yu and the others off, it quickly flew back. It was probably to pick up Jessica, who had been kicked off the helicopter by Miao Kun.
At this time, everyone was standing on the high ground of the deserted island. They could already see a huge island in front of them on the right.
Because it was very close, they could already see the artificially planted trees and some antique buildings on the island.
"That's right!" Miao Kun saw what Zhao Yu was thinking and immediately said, "That's Miracle Island! It's shaped like an irregular heart, so the local people also call it Heart Island.
"Don't look at it. It doesn't look big from here, but Miracle Island is at least two square kilometers! So, even if Green really wanted to sell such a big island, I would have to think twice! "
"Oh?" Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows. "So, you must be very good at buying islands? Can you tell me how many other islands you've bought? "
"Go away …" Miao Kun frowned. "You only care about my money. I'm telling you, if you dare to do anything to my Miaomiao, I won't give you a penny!"
"What?" Zhao Yu pretended to be innocent. "I was just thinking that when Miaomiao and I have time in the future, we should go to one of your islands for vacation!"
"Don't even think about it. Even if you do, you can't tell me …"
While the two of them were talking and joking, they could already see two speedboats coming from the opposite island.
However, because there was some distance between the two islands, it would take at least 10 minutes for the speedboats to arrive.
"What the hell? Green, that old ghost … "Zhao Yu heard the French girl whisper," If he knew we were coming, why didn't he let the speedboat wait for us here? Is he trying to do something funny again? "
"Hmm …" Zhao Yu looked around and asked Miao Kun, "Father-in-law, how many people are attending the detective salon?"
"I'm not sure about the exact number …" Miao Kun thought. "I guess that Green invited all his old friends from the last party. There were at least 13 people last time!
But … That's enough! "
"Oh, like Lee Hyun-Sung from Korea? Have you already entered? "Zhao Yu asked.
"It's Li Bencheng," Miao Kun corrected him again. He then sighed and said, "Those who went in are not that bad. Some of them are no longer alive! After all, it has been ten years since the last gathering. Things remain the same, but the people have changed! "
"Oh …" Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then asked, "What did you do at the last gathering? Is there any fun 'activity'? "
"Hmph, look at your lecherous look. Why am I so worried?" Miao Kun muttered. "You must remember that you are my son-in-law. If you fool around outside, you will ruin my reputation!"
"What …" Although Miao Kun's words were exactly what Zhao Yu wanted, he didn't want to admit it. So, he put on a straight face and said, "I wanted to ask you, what kind of activities does the Detective Salon do? I'm mentally prepared! Why do you always think in the wrong direction? "
"Hmm …" Miao Kun thought for a moment, then said, "Actually … there's nothing special about it! We just get together and talk about our own situations, strange cases, and so on! "
Miao Kun said. "Of course, in order to increase the atmosphere, Green did organize some activities. But, it wasn't the kind of dirty activities that you think.
For example, the kind of reasoning questions that were more interesting. " Miao Kun recalled. "Everyone would give 20 of the same questions, and whoever could pass the questions would get a reward of 200,000 pounds! But, as long as one of the questions was wrong, it would be over!
In addition, there were some reasoning games and things like that. They were all tricks from Scotland Yard. "
Miao Kun shook his head. "To be honest, everyone knows that. Green's purpose in organizing the Detective Salon was not because he was a fanatic or really interested in strange cases all over the world.
His real purpose was nothing more than to get some information from us, so that he could get something that would be beneficial to him through the gathering.
"Do you know?" Miao Kun said seriously. "For some high-level people, what they love the most is information! Sometimes, the value of a piece of information is immeasurable! "
Miao Kun said. "Of course, it's the same for all of us who attend the banquet! They were all here to obtain more information! Do you understand? "
"Oh … I understand." Zhao Yu nodded, then threw out a new question. "Since it's good for everyone, why not hold it every year?"
"You ask me, but who am I supposed to ask?" Miao Kun whispered in Zhao Yu's ear. "But, the people who attended the banquet that year all had powerful backgrounds.
Maybe it's because everyone was too busy and didn't have time to get together? "
"Hmm … But, it sounds quite interesting!" Zhao Yu turned to look at the speedboat that was speeding towards them. He was eager to try it out.
At this time, Juliet pulled Miao Kun aside, and the two of them started talking in French.
Although their voices were very low, Zhao Yu could still hear that Juliet was worried that Jessica would harm Miao Kun. She was trying to help Miao Kun.
Hmph …
Zhao Yu looked at Miao Kun with disdain. He could see that Juliet was talking to him with ambiguous eyes and intimate movements. It was obvious that they had been intimate before.
This old guy always talks about kindness and morality. He doesn't trust me, but he's fooling around outside. What a hypocrite …
At the same time, the skinny Japanese writer was squatting by the sea, writing something down in a small notebook.
Zhao Yu guessed that this guy was looking for creative inspiration.
It didn't take long for the speedboat to arrive.
There were two speedboats that came to pick them up. The drivers of the speedboats, like the previous manager, spoke in perfect English. They apologized for their tardiness and invited them aboard.
However, something unexpected happened. When they boarded the speedboat, the driver suddenly asked Zhao Yu to take another speedboat. He was not allowed to sit with Miao Kun and the other two.
Why?
Zhao Yu didn't understand, and Miao Kun expressed his doubts.
The driver explained that this was the boss's request. All the newcomers who participated in the detective salon had to separate from the old people and take different routes.
"No, no, no …" Miao Kun immediately objected. He pointed at Zhao Yu and said, "He doesn't understand English. If I don't follow him, he can't communicate with others!"
"No, no, no …" However, the driver's attitude was firm. He said that they were all following the boss's orders and couldn't be changed. Moreover, he repeatedly emphasized safety and promised that Zhao Yu would not be in danger.
Miao Kun tried to argue with them again. On one hand, he asked to speak to Green. On the other hand, he began to threaten the other party that if they didn't let Zhao Yu follow him, he would quit.
However, the other party was unmoved and refused to agree.
"Okay, okay!" Seeing that things had reached an impasse, Zhao Yu finally stood up and said to Miao Kun, "It's okay, it's okay! Since they asked me to do this, I can only do as the Romans do!
"Don't worry, father-in-law. I'm China's top detective. I'll be fine!" Zhao Yu laughed in Miao Kun's ear. "I'll make that Green regret separating us! Hehehe … "
