Probably because of the mentality of thinking that you can get good things first, people came to the door one after another after ten o'clock the next morning.Men want to work, and most of them are female relatives.They exchanged greetings with their master, then headed towards the hall, Misako and two maids were busy arranging tea and refreshments for them. Someone even brought an art dealer they knew to help estimate the price.However, everyone is smart, everyone is interested in certain paintings, and it seems that it will not be easy to agree on how to distribute them. Around noon, the husbands of these people also came to watch the battle.They seemed to have skipped work, and when they heard that the matter had not been settled, they left a few words of encouragement to their wives and left again.As a result, the visitor parking lot is almost always full.Sudo also showed up.He seemed to be here for Zhengqing.

For lunch, I ordered takeout from a nearby sushi restaurant.When Zhiming was still in good health, it was common for him to suddenly order dozens of sushi. There was a temporary truce in the hall, and Misako decided to dine in the kitchen with Sumie and the others.She doesn't want to be in the hall.She would suffocate if she sat quietly among relatives who were eager to claim Naoaki's relics for themselves. Misako was picking up sushi with her chopsticks when she saw someone pass by the bay window above the sink.The glass was patterned, so she couldn't tell who that person was.

"Huh? Who is it..." "What's wrong?" Cheng Jiang didn't seem to notice anyone passing by. Misako put down her chopsticks, went out from the back door of the kitchen, and went around to the back door of the house. She saw a dark shadow running quickly.She exclaimed, but when she looked again, there was no one there. "Young Madam..." Cheng Jiang also followed. Misako shook her head. "Well, nothing. Let's go eat." Misako walked towards the back door of the kitchen while thinking about the figure just now, when she suddenly heard Cheng Jiang say loudly, "Ouch, Miss!"

Sonoko was walking towards them. "Sonoko, what's wrong with you?" Misako asked. "I'm not feeling well, so I came back to rest. But it's nothing serious, don't you worry. I don't want to go through the front door, let me go in through the kitchen back door." "it is good." Sonoko did seem to be unwell, and his face was not very good.She entered the room and drank a cup of tea, looked at the clock, and asked Misako, "Is Brother Hongchang at home?" "Hongchang? You're not here." Misako shook her head, "He went to school. What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, just asking casually." After finishing speaking, she left the kitchen with her schoolbag. Around one o'clock in the afternoon, the relic battle started again.Yayezi is in charge of coordinating, but after all, she is only the stepmother of Guasheng's family, and she seems to lack a little prestige.Therefore, Xing Hui is actually responsible.Misako watched from the side, and it was obvious that all valuable items fell into the hands of Xing Hui's close relatives. "Now, I don't know whose relic it is." Ayeko whispered in Misako's ear.

At this time, someone timidly opened the sliding door behind them, it was Hemei.She poked her head out and said inarticulately, "There's a phone call." "Call? Who is calling?" Yayezi asked. "Well..." Kazumi stepped forward, bringing her face close to Yayezi's ear.When Misako heard her say "police", she couldn't help being startled. Yayezi was probably also taken aback, his expression turned serious. A few minutes later, Yayezi returned to the hall, her beautiful face covered with frost.She rushed to Xing Hui's side in a flash.Xinghui is thinking about how to allocate several Japanese paintings.

"Xinghui, what a mess." Yayezi said out of breath, "I heard that Mr. Zhengqing was killed." For a moment, the room was silent.
