Chapter 530: The Hatamoto Sisters! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)
"call……"
Looking at the back of Hatamoto Ichiro being taken away, Bai Ye shook his head slightly and sighed softly: "Speaking of which, whether it is Hatamoto Ryuo or other members of the Hatamoto family, they have been fighting for so long, but in the end, the property fell into the hands of Xia Jiang, who has no interest in inheriting the Hatamoto family. Fate is really unpredictable."
Hearing Bai Ye's words, Maori Kogoro crossed his arms and snorted coldly: "Haha, this may be the case that even if you try hard, the flowers won't bloom, but if you plant willows by accident, they will grow into shade!"
Whether it's an irritable, arrogant old man who bosses others around all day long, or that sloppy, unruly young boy; or a selfish fat aunt who only cares about benefits, and the other's good-for-nothing son whose head is full of ridiculous ideas.
He looked down on and had no good feelings towards the corrupt guys in the Hatamoto family.
Perhaps, in the entire Hatamoto family, only Hatamoto Natsue, a kind and gentle girl, can make people see some beauty in human nature.
Mao Lilan held her chin with one hand and frowned slightly, as if she was lost in memories: "But when I was chatting with Miss Xia Jiang, I always felt that she didn't care much about inheriting the entire estate."
Conan opened his eyes wide and asked curiously: "Sister Xiaolan, why?"
Although the assets of the Hatamoto family are not as great as those of his childhood friend's family, they are also worth a lot of money.
If someone else had such a large inheritance, they would probably wake up laughing in their sleep.
But Hatamoto Natsue was not very interested, which he did not quite understand.
Mao Lilan squatted down and patiently explained to Conan: "Ms. Xia Jiang told me that she wanted to divide part of the inheritance with other people in the Hatamoto family. She felt that this was what Master Gozo left behind, and everyone should have a share."
Maori Kogoro frowned slightly, "Ms. Xia Jiang is really kind and generous. You know, her relatives are all harboring bad intentions."
Let's not talk about the deceased Hatamoto Ryuo, who died on the way to scheme for the Hatamoto family's property. Let's take the still alive people like Hatamoto Akiie, for example, they are all tough guys, and each of them is plotting against the inheritance left behind by Hatamoto Gozo.
After that, he raised his hand and touched his chin. After a moment's silence, he continued, "But then again, it's good to give some away. Just think of it as buying peace. Maybe after those people get the benefits, they won't have any bad intentions towards her anymore, and she can live a more peaceful life in the future."
"Bad intentions?"
Mao Lilan blinked her clear eyes, somewhat puzzled, "But, I don't think they did anything to Miss Xia Jiang?
You know, although both Hatamoto Mariko and Hatamoto Akie and others coveted the inheritance left by Hatamoto Gozo, they did not seem to take any extreme actions against Hatamoto Natsue, the heir recognized by Hatamoto Gozo.
Of course, it is also possible that after Hatamoto Gozo was murdered, Hatamoto Ryuo unfortunately died not long after, and everyone had no chance to attack Hatamoto Natsue.
Maori Kogoro raised the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly, with a shrewd look in his eyes, "Xiaolan, you are still too naive. Why do you think they were so anxious to identify Xiaowu as the murderer when Bai Ye and I were reasoning?"
Mao Lilan shook her head in confusion, her eyes full of curiosity.
Conan's eyes rolled, like a light bulb that suddenly lit up, and he answered quickly: "I know. According to the inheritance law, if the heir is found to have killed the owner of the estate, then the heir will be deprived of the inheritance qualification. This is their idea. They want to make Miss Xia Jiang lose the inheritance qualification so that the estate can be returned to them."
The act of killing the deceased will inevitably lead to the loss of inheritance rights. If an heir intentionally kills the deceased, whether it is accomplished or attempted, it should be recognized that he has lost the inheritance rights.
This is clearly stipulated by law and is intended to protect the legitimate rights and interests of the deceased and prevent the heirs from obtaining the inheritance through illegal means.
Therefore, the heir who kills the deceased will not only be unable to enjoy the inheritance rights, but may also face criminal liability.
Maori Kogoro looked at Conan with satisfaction and gave him a thumbs up: "Conan, this kid is quick-witted. That's right, the inheritance law stipulates this, and it is also to protect the rights and interests of the heirs and prevent someone from obtaining the inheritance by improper means. Moreover, such behavior will not only lose the right of inheritance, but may also lead to criminal liability."
When Mao Lilan heard Mao Li Kogoro say this, her face immediately turned red with anger and she clenched her fists: "So that's how it is, how can these people be so bad! For the sake of money, they even ignore family affection, it's so shameless."
When she thought about the people around Hatamoto Natsue, who were all such sinister people, she couldn't help but feel sad for them.
"Miss Xia Jiang is so pitiful that she is surrounded by people like this!"
Bai Ye sighed slightly and said, "Actually, compared to the greed and hatefulness of those people, the fact that Xia Jiang can still remain kind in such a family environment is the most rare."
At this point, Bai Ye paused, "However, in the final analysis, the reason why the Hatamoto family has become so dilapidated now is largely due to the actions of Mr. Gozo himself."
Maori Kogoro nodded in agreement: "Well, this old man Gozo has a stubborn temper like a bull, and he is arbitrary in his actions, which has offended all the family members. No wonder this series of tragedies has occurred."
If he were in such a family, with an old man like Hatamoto Gozo above him, he would probably not be able to help but want to kill him.
Therefore, the reason why Hatamoto Gozo ended up being brutally murdered by his own grandson was, in the final analysis, entirely his own fault.
Conan looked up at everyone and said hesitantly, "Should we go and warn Miss Xia Jiang now, and tell her to be careful of these people's schemes and tricks, so as not to suffer any loss?"
Mao Lilan's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and then she stood up without hesitation, "Okay, let's go quickly. If we delay any longer, I will feel uneasy."
Everyone reached a consensus and hurried towards where Xia Jiang was.
Along the way, Maori Kogoro was still muttering: "We have to explain this matter clearly to Miss Xia Jiang and let her know the interests involved. Those people didn't succeed now, and who knows what tricks they will come up with in the future."
Mao Lilan pursed her pink lips and nodded heavily, "That's right!"
The kind and gentle Xia Jiang will be protected by Mao Lilan!
With her around, those people's conspiracy will definitely not succeed.
……
"Dong dong dong..."
Everyone came to Xia Jiang's residence, and Mao Lilan went up and knocked on the door gently. "Who is it?"
The gentle voice of Hatamoto Natsue was soon heard from inside the room.
Mao Lilan and Bai Ye looked at each other and responded in a gentle voice, "It's me, Miss Xia Jiang, and my father, Bai Ye, and Conan."
With a slight "creak", the door slowly opened, revealing the confused face of Hatamoto Natsue. Her eyes were shining with confusion, and she said softly: "Ms. Xiaolan, Mr. Maori, why are you here? Please come in."
Everyone filed into the house. Hatamoto Natsue was keenly aware that the atmosphere was a bit heavy. He looked at them uneasily and asked, "Did something happen?"
Maori Kogoro cleared his throat and said solemnly, "Ms. Xia Jiang, we came here this time because we have something very important to tell you. Regarding your inheritance, we found that your relatives may have some bad thoughts about you."
Upon hearing this, Hatamoto Natsue's face instantly showed a mixture of shock and disappointment. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and she stammered, "Mr. Maori, are you kidding? How could my sisters treat me badly..."
Maori Kogoro frowned, his expression became more serious, and he said solemnly: "Ms. Xia Jiang, you are too kind. Think about it, after Mr. Longnan encountered misfortune, their behavior in the reasoning process was extremely abnormal? Were they anxious to convict Mr. Xiaowu!"
At this point, Maori Kogoro paused and said in a deep voice, "Do you know why they did this? The reason is actually very simple, because they want to identify Mr. Xiaowu as the murderer. In this way, according to the inheritance law, as his wife and the one who brought him into the Hatamoto family, you will lose your inheritance qualification, and then the estate will fall into their hands."
Hatamoto Natsue's face turned pale. She covered her mouth in disbelief. "How could this happen? I always treated them as my family, but they actually..."
Mao Lilan hurried over, held Hatamoto Xiajiang's hand and comforted her: "Ms. Xiajiang, don't be too sad. We are worried that you will get hurt, so we come to tell you this. You must be careful in the future and don't trust them easily."
Conan also echoed: "Sister Xia Jiang, don't worry, we will help you find a solution. Those bad guys will not succeed."
Hatamoto Natsue nodded slightly, tears of emotion welling up in his eyes: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do. I always feel that we are all a family. Although we had some quarrels before, it's not to the extent of..."
Maori Kogoro stared at Xia Jiang and said earnestly, "Miss Xia Jiang, we know you are kind-hearted, but at a time like this, you should also think more about yourself. Especially regarding the distribution of the inheritance, you must make a careful decision and not let those with ill intentions take advantage of you."
"Perhaps you could consider finding a professional lawyer to assist you and ensure that everything is legal and compliant so that those with bad intentions have no chance to take advantage of it."
Hearing this, Hatamoto Natsue was just about to say something when the doorbell suddenly rang again.
Everyone looked at each other, with a sense of uneasiness in their hearts.
Bai Ye gave a wink to Mao Li Ran, and Mao Li Ran understood and gently protected Hatamoto Natsue behind her, while Bai Ye slowly walked towards the door.
Through the peephole, Bai Ye saw a sexy woman wearing a V-neck, backless black dress with a pearl necklace and short hair with bangs standing at the door. She looked a little flustered and glanced around from time to time.
It turned out to be Hatamoto Natsue's sister - Hatamoto Akie.
Seeing that the person who came was actually Hatamoto Natsue's sister, Bai Ye frowned slightly, looked back at everyone, winked at everyone, then took a deep breath and opened the door.
"Mr. Bai Ye, Detective Mao Li, why are you both here?"
When Hatamoto Akiie saw the people in the room, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly forced a smile, trying to make himself look more natural.
"We came to see Miss Xia Jiang. Miss Qiu Jiang, what's the matter with you coming here?"
Bai Ye crossed his arms across his chest, blocking the door, with no intention of letting Hatamoto Akiie in.
"I... I just came to see Xia Jiang. After all, so many things happened at home. I'm worried about her."
Hatamoto Akie's eyes were a little erratic, and his voice unconsciously rose a few notches when he spoke, as if he was trying hard to hide his inner panic and nervousness.
Hearing this, Hatamoto Xiajiang walked out from behind Bai Ye and said softly, "Sister, please come in and sit down."
Hatamoto Akiie walked into the room, her eyes quickly swept across everyone's faces, and finally stopped at Xia Jiang: "Xia Jiang, I know that your family treated you badly before, but that's all in the past. Now that your grandfather is gone and Long Nan is gone too, our family should unite even more."
Maori Kogoro snorted and ruthlessly exposed her plan: "Unity? I'm afraid your real intention is not to stay in the bar."
Hatamoto Akie's face suddenly darkened, and he angrily retorted, "What do you mean by that? I'm really doing this for Xia Jiang's own good."
Maori Kogoro sneered and continued, "Really? Then why were you so anxious to identify Xiao Wu as the murderer? Don't think we don't know what you are planning."
Hatamoto Akiie's face turned pale instantly, her lips trembled slightly, and she stammered, "I... I was misled. I really thought Xiao Wu was the murderer."
Conan suddenly spoke up, his childish voice revealing an unquestionable firmness: "Aunt Qiu Jiang, please stop lying. We all know what you are thinking. You just want Sister Xia Jiang to lose her inheritance qualification so that you can get the inheritance yourself."
Seeing that the truth had been completely exposed, Hatamoto Akiie's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground, crying: "I was forced into this. How could I want to treat Xia Jiang like this? She is my biological sister. But I owe a huge debt. If I don't get the inheritance, I will really be desperate..."
Everyone looked at the scene before them and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
After a long while, Mao Lilan slowly said: "Ms. Qiu Jiang, even if you are in trouble, you shouldn't use such means to take advantage of it and hurt your loved ones."
"Woooo..."
Upon hearing this, Hatamoto Akiie cried even more sorrowfully, but among these tears, it was unclear how much was regret and how much was fear for the future...
