Chapter 1285: Do as the Romans Do
After the helicopter dropped off Zhao Yu and the others, it flew back quickly. Probably, it should be to pick up Jacka who was kicked off the plane by Miao Kun.
At this time, everyone was standing on the high ground of the deserted island, and they could already see a huge island appearing in front of the right.
Due to the short distance, you can already see artificially planted trees and some antique buildings on the island.
"That's right!" Miao Kun saw Zhao Yu's thoughts, and immediately introduced, "There is Miracle Island! Its shape is like an irregular heart, so the locals also call it Heart Island.
"Don't look, it doesn't look that big from here, but Miracle Island is at least 2 square kilometers in size! So, even if Green really wants to sell such a big island, I have to weigh it!"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows, "So, you must be very good at buying islands? Then can you tell me how many islands you have bought?"
"Go, go..." Miao Kun frowned, "Just thinking about my money, I can tell you, if you dare to feel sorry for my Miaomiao, I won't give you a penny!"
"What!" Zhao Yu pretended to be innocent, "I'm just thinking, if I have time with Miaomiao in the future, which island of yours should I go to for vacation!"
"Don't think about it, even if there is, you can't say..."
While the two were chatting and joking, they could already see two speedboats speeding over from the opposite island.
However, due to the distance between the two islands, it will take at least 10 minutes for the speedboat to arrive by visual inspection.
"What are you doing? Old ghost Green..." At this time, Zhao Yu heard the French sister Tuoqiang muttering in a low voice, "I knew we were coming, why didn't the speedboat wait for us here? Did he want to What's weird?"
"Hmm..." Zhao Yu asked Miao Kun while observing the surrounding environment, "My father-in-law, after talking for a long time, how many people are participating in the detective salon?"
"I don't know the exact number of people..." Miao Kun pondered, "I guess Green invited all old friends who attended the party last time. Last time, there were at least 13 people!
"But... that's enough!"
"Oh, like that Korean Li Xiancheng? Has he gone in?" Zhao Yu asked.
"It's Li Bencheng,
"Miao Kun corrected again, and then said with emotion, "The ones that went in are pretty good, and there are still some that are no longer alive!" After all, ten years have passed since the last gathering, things are different! "
"Oh..." Zhao Yu thought for a while, then asked again, "Then what did you guys do at the last gathering? Did you have any fun 'events'?"
"Hmph, look at your perverted look, why am I so worried!" Miao Kun muttered, "You must remember that you are my son-in-law, if you mess around outside , messing with flowers and grass, but it will ruin my reputation!"
"What..." Although Miao Kun's words were in the middle of his heart, Zhao Yu would not admit it, and immediately said with a straight face, "I want to ask you, what kind of activities will the detective salon do? I'm so mentally prepared! You Why do you keep thinking in the wrong direction?"
"Hmm..." Miao Kun thought for a while and said, "Actually...it's nothing special! It's just getting together, talking about each other's situation, and talking about the strange cases and strange things they have encountered!
"Of course, in order to increase the atmosphere, Green did engage in some activities, but they are not the kind of dirty activities you think, but have something to do with detective reasoning!
"For example... the reasoning questions that pass the level are more interesting." Miao Kun recalled, "Everyone is given 20 identical questions, and whoever can pass the level will get a reward of 200,000 pounds! However, as long as one is wrong , that's over!
"In addition, there are some deduction games and so on, which are all their Scotland Yard tricks...
"Actually speaking, everyone is well aware of it. The purpose of Green organizing the detective salon is not because he is an enthusiast and is really interested in strange cases all over the world.
"His real purpose is nothing more than to scoop up news from us people and get something beneficial to him through the party.
"Did you know?" Miao Kun said solemnly, "For some senior people, their favorite thing is news! Sometimes, the value of a piece of news is inestimable!
"Of course, it's the same for Green, and it's the same for us VIPs attending the banquet! We all came here to get more news! Do you understand?"
"Oh...understood." After Zhao Yu nodded, he asked a new question, "Since it's good for everyone, why not hold it every year?"
"You ask me, who should I ask?" Miao Kun whispered into Zhao Yu's ear, "However, all the people who attended the banquet back then had backgrounds, and none of them were fuel-efficient.
"Maybe it's because everyone is too busy to get together?"
"Hmm... But it sounds quite interesting!" Zhao Yu turned to look at the speedboat that was speeding by, eager to try.
At this time, Juliet pulled Miao Kun aside, and the two started talking in French again.
Although the voice was very low, Zhao Yu could still hear that Juliet was also worried that Jacka would be unfavorable to Miao Kun, and was helping Miao Kun with advice.
snort……
Zhao Yu looked at Miao Kun with contempt, because he could tell that Juliet had ambiguous eyes and intimate movements when talking with him, as if she had had close contact before.
This old guy is full of benevolence and morality to himself, and he doesn't mind if he doesn't agree with it, but he's messing around outside, having a good time, it's really hypocritical...
At the same time, the skinny Japanese writer was squatting by the sea, carefully recording something with a pen in a small notebook.
Zhao Yu estimated that this guy should be looking for creative inspiration, right?
Not long after, the speedboat finally arrived.
There were two speedboats that came to pick them up. The drivers of the speedboats spoke standard English like the previous administrator, apologizing for their lateness and inviting them to board.
However, something unexpected happened to Zhao Yu. When boarding the boat, the driver suddenly asked Zhao Yu to take another speedboat and not let him and Miao Kun sit together.
hy?
Zhao Yu didn't understand, and Miao Kun also expressed doubts.
The driver explained that this was the boss's request. All the newcomers who participated in the detective salon this time should be separated from the old people and take different routes.
"NO, NO, NO..." Miao Kun objected immediately, pointing at Zhao Yu and said, "He doesn't understand English, if I don't follow, he won't be able to communicate with others!"
"NO, NO, NO..." However, the driver was firm, saying that they all obeyed the boss's orders and there was no way to change them. Moreover, he repeatedly emphasized safety and would ensure that Zhao Yu would not be in danger.
Miao Kun defended them with a strong attitude. On the one hand, he asked to talk to Green, and on the other hand, he began to threaten the other party that if Zhao Yu was not allowed to follow him, he would quit.
However, the other party remained unmoved and disagreed with life and death.
"Okay, okay!" Seeing that things were at an impasse, Zhao Yu finally stood up and said to Miao Kun, "It's okay, it's okay! Since people want this, then we have to do as the Romans do!
"Don't worry, old man, I'm a Chinese detective anyway, and I'll be fine!" Zhao Yu said with a smirk next to Miao Kun's ear, "I'll let that Green, regret separating me from you! Hehehe..."
"..." This time, it was finally Miao Kun's turn to be speechless, because he sensed something bad from Zhao Yu's smirk...
