The Yamato Hotel in Akasaka Sanno is a mid-level hotel. Unlike the first-class hotels, it is convenient to stay, so the rooms are always full. Although it is a mid-level hotel, the guests are not necessarily middle-class.Some high-ranking celebrities feel that first-class hotels are too restrictive, and they will also choose the relaxed Yamato Hotel. On September 25th, at eleven o'clock in the evening, half an hour had passed since Mikoshiba rushed in and out of Kaiyun Maru on the banks of the Ryogoku River. At the counter of Yamato Hotel, Manager Gonto was reading the evening newspaper boredly.

"Excuse me..." A boy in a student uniform stood in front of him. "Huh? What's the matter?" Manager Quanto raised his head, and when he saw the boy, he said with a look of shock: "Don't be scary, I was watching the daytime bank robbery report, and I was startled by your sudden noise... What's the matter with you?" "I would like to ask, who lives in Room 7 on the second floor of this hotel?" "Room No. 7 on the second floor..." Manager Quanto looked at the boy in front of him, looked at the identification card on the collar of his school uniform and said:

"You are from Xindai! You are not allowed to interview now! Do you know what time it is? It's past eleven o'clock..." "Yes, I know that, but I..." "No, no! Just now Sangye Wuyue called and explained that she has a headache tonight and doesn't want to see anyone. If you want an interview, come back tomorrow!" "What? Kuwano Wuyue?" Miko Chai Jin frowned in confusion. Kuwano Mayzuki is a Japanese world-class vocalist and one of the top five opera singers in the world. The "Madame Butterfly" she sang not only won excellent reviews in Italy, where operas are popular, but also sang Japanese folk songs in front of the king of a kingdom in southern Europe, and was favored by the king.

The king therefore presented her with a diamond named "Mediterranean Star" as a reward. At that time, Japanese newspapers reported the news. Miko Shibajin also knew about Kuwano's return to Japan in May, but he didn't expect her to live in the Yamato Hotel, and it was Room 7 on the second floor. Thinking of this, Miko Chai immediately felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. The place that the Phantom Monster just mentioned is indeed Room 7 on the second floor of the Yamato Hotel, so Yukiko should be here with the guard with the goatee. Why is it now the room of Kuwano Mayzuki?

(Did Phantom Man lie to me?) The diamond given to Sangye Wuyue by the king of Southern Europe suddenly flashed in Yuzi Chaijin's mind - the Star of the Mediterranean. It is said that Phantom Monster is a jewel maniac. Could it be that his goal this time is Kuwano Wuyue? "Uncle! Uncle!" Yuzi Chai Jin shouted a little excitedly. "Ah? Boy, why are you still here?" "I have something to ask my uncle. Is there a lovely lady aged thirteen or fourteen who came to see Miss Sangye together with an old man with a goatee?" "Miss thirteen or fourteen... no!"

Miko Chaijin thought for a moment, then said: "So did anyone send a big box, or a box, to Ms. Kuwano today?" "Yes! It's strange, how do you know so well? At around eight o'clock this evening, an old man with a goatee did indeed deliver a large suitcase... But boy, it's already late, and we'll talk about it tomorrow, and I'm working on it Watch the bank robbery report, don't bother me anymore." Manager Quanto turned his back to Miko Shibajin, put his feet on the table, and concentrated on reading the evening paper. "Uncle, thank you."

Miko Chaijin turned his back to the counter and looked around quickly. There were two or three guests in the hall reading or writing letters, but no one looked in his direction. And in front of the table at the entrance of the hall, there is a waiter in uniform and hat who is playing tons. Next to the waiter was the stairs leading to the second floor. He glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the stairs, and it was exactly half past eleven. Yuzi Chai Jin walked past the waiter as if nothing had happened, and walked lightly to the second floor.
