The banquet continued and more and more people were still there until the long dining table was filled, with about forty people.

These people have guests, including their assistants. Of course, the assistants are not servants, nor are they inferior. They are friends invited by guests, so they also have seats.

However, the top host in the middle has not appeared yet, but the guests and assistants are already chatting enthusiastically.

Li Xuehao, the youngest assistant, just made other guests and assistants "new" a little, and soon no one paid attention to it.

He did not do anything amazing, and he only showed what a teenager of this age should look like.

Yamamoto Shigeki and Mrs. Endo, who was sitting on his head, were chatting. The content they talked about was nothing special, they were just talking about some very ordinary topics.

Li Xuehao listened quietly and occasionally ate some exquisite food on the table.

Not all the guests brought assistants, and some came alone, such as Mrs. Endo, who was alone.

The guests invited were all very strong, and even the assistants were weaker than the guests, but they were not obviously weak.

Li Xuehao didn't know why these people were gathered here, but being able to gather these people together shows that the master is not an ordinary person, at least ordinary people do not have such great energy.

Suddenly, the conversation between Mrs. Endo and Shigeki Yamamoto caught his attention.

"Qiangkang, what do you think of this case?" Mrs. Endo said in a low voice, but it had no effect on Li Xuehao.

Case, what case? He was suspicious.

But Shigeki Yamamoto seemed to know very well about the case that Mrs. Endo said, and only heard him say: "There is no weapon, no fingerprint, no time for committing the crime, and no motive for murder. He is not the murderer."

"At that time, he was the only one with the dead. If it weren't for him, would it be a ghost who was really a murderer?" said Mrs. Endo.

Shigeki Yamamoto was silent for a moment and looked at the boy. If he had never seen the ghost with his own eyes, he would have thought that what Mrs Endo said was absurd, but now he doesn't think so anymore. Perhaps it's really a ghost who kills people.

When Li Xuehao heard Mrs. Endo talk about ghost murder, he suddenly understood something. Yamamoto Shigehiro brought him with him. Is it related to this "ghost murder" case?

"If it was a ghost killing, no one could get the 100 million yen fund for the case solving." Mrs. Endo chuckled slightly, but her tone was more gloating. Everyone was busy with each other, which seemed to be the result she wanted to see the most.

Yamamoto Shigeki didn't answer the conversation, but just frowned.

Li Xuehao had some insight and vaguely understood why so many people gathered here, far beyond ordinary people. It was a 100 million yen case-solving fund that attracted them. Few people could not be tempted to this astronomical number.

Shigeki Yamamoto is probably one of them.

While thinking, suddenly the atmosphere at the scene became quiet, as if someone had been there, the person who was originally talking loudly stopped.

Li Xuehao looked up and saw an old man with gray hair walking in through the door on the other side with the help of two young men and women.

Although the old man's hair was gray, his face was not too old, but his face was a little pale and seemed to be very unhealthy.

The man and the woman looked very young. The man was about thirty years old, wearing a suit and ties, handsome appearance, and looked like a successful person.

The woman is much younger, only in her early twenties, like a female college student who has not graduated. Her facial features are delicate and cute, and her eyes are bright. However, facing the eyes of so many people present, she seemed a little uncomfortable, and she lowered her head and focused on supporting the old man.

As the old man approached, there were sounds of respect or flattery around him from time to time.

"Mr. Long-term wife."

"Mr. Long-term wife."

“…”

Everyone calls the same name, even if it is the bear with the worst attitude, he dares not be disrespectful to the elderly.

The old man was helped to the top position. From this point of view, he seemed to be the owner of this villa in the mountain. The young man and the woman might be his juniors. They had no seats and just stood quietly behind the old man.

"Everyone, sit down." The old man glanced at the dozens of people present, and the old and low voice came out of his mouth. As if he had magic, the people who stood up at the scene sat down in one go.

"I invite everyone to come today. I believe you all know the reason." The old man spoke very slowly, not sure if it was because he was ill and unable to speak quickly, or if his speaking habits were like this.

"Yes, Mr. Long Wife, I heard that the fund this time is 100 million yen, right?" Someone below asked impatiently, with expectations and greed in his eyes.

"No, it's not 100 million yen." The old man shook his head.

"What!" The people at the scene were surprised, not only the person who just asked, but others were also surprised. You know, they heard that there was a 100 million yen case-solving fund.

"It's 500 million yen!" The old man's words were like a thunder.

The person who was originally disappointed opened his mouth wide and looked at him in shock and incredible ways, and his eyes gradually became fanatical.

Even Shigeki Yamamoto, who was the most calm, saw Li Xuehao clench his fists tightly clench his hands under the table.

"As long as one of you can find the murderer, you can get a 500 million yen fund for the case solving." The old man was very satisfied with the performance of the people below and said in a plain tone, as if 500 million yen was no different from 5 yuan for him.

"Crazy..."

Those who have woken up from the shock of 500 million yen can no longer help but feel excited, their interest becomes high, and the scene suddenly becomes lively.

"Now, you can look at the information. If there is no problem, you can start." After the old man said that, he signaled to the young man and woman behind him. The latter nodded twice, took a stack of information and began to send it to the guests on the long table.

Every customer received it, and even the assistant received one.

The information from Li Xuehao happened to be sent to him by the young girl. When she saw him, the girl couldn't help but be surprised, probably because she was curious that such a young guest was invited.

After sending the information, the two young men and women returned to the old man.
