After making an appointment, he came to Sonosaki's house.
Miss Sonosaki Saeko welcomed her out very warmly.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
After completing the test, Yu Jie's attitude towards the widow became closer than before.
Jon's expression remained unchanged, "I'm here to collect my reward."
"I will pay you every penny of the money, but before that, are you interested in hanging out with me?" Sonosaki Saeko smiled slightly.
Jon pretended to hesitate.
Seeing this, Sonosaki Saeko added: "Actually, my father really wants to meet you."
Oops.
Fast forward directly to meeting the parents.
Jon nodded, "In that case, okay."
Sonosaki Saeko seemed very happy and took Jon's arm.
Feeling the warm and soft touch on his arm, Jon nodded secretly.
What a great sin!
Just then, a beautiful figure walked out of the corner.
When she saw Jon and Sonosaki Saeko, she was stunned for a moment, and her expression became a little strange.
Jon didn't expect to see Princess Wakana here, and he frowned unconsciously.
However, looking back, there seemed to be no flaws. He quickly relaxed, adjusted his mood, and took the initiative to say hello, "Halo, Your Royal Highness."
Princess, return it to Your Highness!?
Sonosaki Saeko:Mood-100
Princess Wakana glanced at the two people opposite.
Finally, she cast her eyes on Sonosaki Saeko's arm holding Jon, and said, "Hello, Mr. Joestar."
Very polite.
In other words, she didn't dare to be rude in front of her eldest sister.
Sonosaki Saeko chuckled, "Wakana, do you know each other?"
"Mr. Joestar and I...had some work contacts before." Princess Wakana looked very cautious.
Jon added: "I dealt with stalkers for her."
"That's it—" Sonosaki Saeko said clearly.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent.
After all, he still had a mission, so Jon didn't want to stay here, so he took the initiative and said, "Let's talk next time, we have other things to do."
Princess Wakana suddenly came to her senses and said, "Okay."
Then, she looked at Sonosaki Saeko and said, "Sister, I'm going to work."
"Be careful on the road, Wakana." Sonosaki smiled in response.
Although they were words of concern, Jon could clearly hear the coldness in them.
He quietly glanced at Princess Wakana and Saeko Sonosaki.
It seems that the relationship between the two sisters is not as simple as it seems...
"Okay, let's go in." Sonosaki Saeko acted as if nothing had happened, still smiling.
Of course Jon didn't refuse.
Entering Sonosaki Manor, his eyes kept looking around.
"What's wrong? Haven't you been here before?" Sonosaki Saeko asked.
Jon's expression remained unchanged, "Last time I came here just to investigate the case, and you dragged me to the kitchen and chatted all afternoon. I didn't have time to go anywhere else."
Sonosaki Saeko seemed to have profound meaning when she said: "There will be many opportunities in the future."
I can't accept this.
Jon chose silence.
The widow’s sister didn’t care and led Jon directly into the villa.
Except for the head maid who had been arrested, the others were all familiar faces. Under the surprised eyes of many servants, Sonosaki Saeko led Jon to the study.
Standing at the door, Sonosaki Saeko unconsciously calmed down the expression on her face.
Taking a deep breath, she raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door.
"Father, it's me. I brought Jon Joestar to you."
After a while, a response came from the study.
"Come in."
Sonosaki Saeko pushed open the door and entered.
Jon followed.
Said to be a study room, this is more like a small library.
Among the countless documents and materials, an old man in sixties with a slicked back hair was sitting. He was wearing a pair of brown sunglasses and had a serious look on his face.
Jon thought to himself that this should be the head of the Sonosaki family, Ryubei Sonosaki.
"Are you the Jon Joestar that Saeko often talks about to me?" Staring at Jon, Sonosaki Ryuhei took the initiative to speak.
Naturally, Jon didn't have stage fright, and said without being humble or arrogant: "It's me."
After receiving an affirmative answer, a rare smile appeared on Sonosaki Ryuhei's face, "I have heard Saeko say it many times about you. Yes, you are a very capable talent."
"The old gentleman is overly complimentary." Jon waved his hand.
Sonosaki Seiko took the opportunity to say: "Jon, father admires you very much, especially the investigation about Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider J..."
As she said that, she patted Jon's shoulder gently and said, "You did a good job."
Jon said half truthfully: "As a detective, this is just my job. And you have already paid the deposit, so of course I will do my best."
Sonosaki Saeko still wants to say something.
At this time, Sonosaki Ryubei suddenly interrupted: "Okay Saeko, you have nothing to do with me here. I want to talk to this young man alone."
But she never dared to openly disobey her father's order, so she could only bite her lips and nodded reluctantly.
Turning around, she lowered her voice and secretly reminded Jon: "Be careful what you say and do."
Jon's heart suddenly trembled.
After Sonosaki Saeko left, Sonosaki Ryuhei extended his hand to invite her, "Stop talking standing up. Sit down."
Jon followed his guidance generously and sat down on the sofa.
Sonosaki Ryuhei pondered for a moment and then spoke directly, "Although we have only met once, I know you must be a smart person.
Akito doesn't tell secrets. Saeko likes you and strongly recommends you to me. I want to introduce you to the Sonosaki family. I have always been on the fence about this matter.
But now that you have investigated the true identities of Kamen Rider W and Kamen Rider J, it means that you do have some abilities.
So, I can give you a chance."
what is this?
Recruiting a son-in-law, right?
Qiao An felt a little fed up.
But I remembered the instructions from Shotaro Zuo and the others.
He neither explicitly agreed nor refused, he just said, 'I'm going to think about it.'
Such a reaction actually made Sonosaki Ryuhei appreciate it even more.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I have no habit of forcing others to work for me.
But are you interested in visiting the "History of the Earth" with me?"
When Jon heard this, he was in awe.
He nodded and said: "This is my honor."
...
...
Jon's thinking is still a bit shallow.
The manor where the Sonosaki family lives is not just a manor, but a completely autonomous territory.
Villas and manors are only part of the territory.
Two kilometers away from the villa, Sonosaki Ryubei took Jon to a mysterious-looking ruins.
The old man calls this place a "museum".
"Compared to the earth, human history is too small." Sonosaki Ryubei said calmly.
Jon couldn't agree more.
In any case, he is also a man with "time and space authority". No one has a greater say in this sentence than him.
Sonosaki Ryubei continued: "Humans need to evolve."
etc.
I can't understand what I'm saying, it's a bit too big...
But Jon was still very sensible and didn't speak.
"You are a well-known detective in Fengdu, and you should have taken on many memory-related cases. I think with your intelligence, you should be able to figure out that there is an invisible driving force behind all of this." Sonosaki Ryu.
Bingwei smiled.
"I think this is why you deliberately approached Saeko and me, right?"
As expected of an old fox, his vigilance is really strong.
Jon, who was well prepared, spread his hands, "Sometimes it's not that I want to investigate, I just follow the clues and know some things I shouldn't know.
Haha, you also said that I am a smart person and know that some things can be touched and some things cannot be touched."
Subtext - You can do whatever you like, it has nothing to do with me.
Ryuhei Sonosaki didn't dispel his suspicion with a few words. He was still smiling, "It doesn't matter even if you admit it. In fact, it's not a secret that the Sonosaki family sells memory. It doesn't matter if you tell anyone."
Be confident!
This old fox, Sonosaki Ryuhei, exudes a domineering aura from the inside out.
Yes~
Wanting to become the master of all mankind still requires some courage.
Jon doesn't want to talk too much about this issue.
The topic changed, "I am undoubtedly against the Sonosaki family. However, I am very curious about Gaia memory. In fact, I have always wanted to try this power..."
What is this called?
This is called a certificate of submission!
It's empty talk, I'll turn myself into a dopant first, so that you can dispel your suspicions.
Not to mention, this method really works.
Most of Ryubei Sonosaki's wariness dissipated in an instant. He pushed up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, "It's great that you have such a forward-thinking vision. Natural selection means that the future will definitely belong to the "new human race."
It doesn't matter whether humans are new or not, the main thing is that I want to gain some wool.
Jon twitched his lips.
Suddenly, a person walked over from a distance.
Like Sonosaki Ryubei, he has a long back and wears white clothes.
Sonosaki Ryubei seemed to be very familiar with that person and took the initiative to say hello, "Katou, you're here."
The young man known as "Jia Tou" nodded expressionlessly.
Then, he stared at Jon and asked, "Who is he?"
"He is someone whom Saeko strongly recommends to be absorbed into the family." Sonosaki Ryuhei answered truthfully.
Jon saw it clearly. When this 'Katou' heard the word '冴子', his pupils shrank unconsciously.
Look at this situation...
Undoubtedly a crush.
Jon's eyes were a little playful.
"How come I haven't heard of the person recommended by Saeko?" 'Katou' still looked half-dead, with no emotion at all in his voice.
What I said was somewhat inconsistent with the rules.
Sonosaki Ryubei asked: "Why do you have to hear about it? Don't forget, we are just a cooperative relationship.
"
After saying that, he took the initiative to reveal the identity of the young man in white, "He is Gatoushun from the consortium."
Consortium?
This is the first name I heard.
Jon silently took the key information to heart.
Jia TouShun looked at Qiaoen for a long time.
But in the end, he said nothing, nodded slightly, and walked away.
Sonosaki Ryuhei stared at his retreating figure and smiled coldly.
From this performance, it is not difficult to see that although the Sonosaki family has some cooperation with the consortium, the relationship does not seem to be that close.
Moreover, the Sonosaki family is very small. Apart from Sonosaki Ryubei himself, only Sonosaki Saeko is left.
Oh, right.
And Princess Wakana I saw today.
There are only three people in such a large family, so no wonder Sonosaki Ryubei and Sonosaki Saeko are keen on recruiting a son-in-law.
First there was the gold medal salesman ‘Sonosaki Kirihiko’, and then there was the universal detective ‘Jon Joestar’…
Unfortunately, the purpose of the universal detective is not simple.
Sonosaki Ryubei and Jon talked a lot and for a long time.
Jon was able to deal with every move without leakage, and finally managed to get through today.
When parting, Sonosaki Ryubei assured Jon: "Those memories will be sent to the Master House soon. You have to wait patiently."
Jon expressed his thanks and walked out of Sonosaki Manor without looking back.
At the door, he saw Sono Saki Saeko again.
The widowed sister seemed very happy, "Great, you are still alive. It seems that you have passed my father's test."
Does it turn out that the consequence of failing the test is accidental death?
Jon twitched his lips.
Not knowing what to say, he took a deep breath and said, "If nothing happens, I will go back."
Unexpectedly, Sonosaki Saeko stopped him, "Don't be so anxious, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Jon shook his head, "I think your father has told me enough."
Sonosaki Saiko pondered for a moment, "My father is my father, and I am me."
She seemed to have made up her mind. She took a deep breath and pointed at the Sonosaki Manor behind her, "Honestly, do you want to be its owner?"
Clam?
Jon didn't know why.
A trace of determination flashed in Sonosaki's eyes, "What I mean is that if you and I join forces, there may be a chance to oust my father from the position of head of the Sonosaki family. At that time, this huge family business will be between you and me.
The two of them work together to manage it.”
Good guy, Fengdu is such a filial daughter.
You are really merciless when it comes to your own father.
Three black lines appeared unconsciously on Jon's head.
Seeing the other party's silence, Sonosaki Saeko thought that Jon's heart was moved, so she chuckled and said, "Everything will be yours by then, including me."
Can you imagine the scene of a beautiful lady blowing in your ear?
To be honest, if Jon had some of the attributes of Prime Minister Cao, he might have softened his heart and accepted the ticket together with the girls.
But it's a pity.
He is Jon Joestar.
Normally there is no such worldly a**…
"Miss." He said calmly.
At this moment, the ghost-like Ga Tou Shun emerged from nowhere.
Seeing the intimate state of Jon and Sonosaki Yueko, his chest rose and fell sharply, like a volcano about to erupt.
"Zezi." He said while suppressing his anger.
Seeing that it was Katojun, Sonosaki Saeko's expression returned to her usual look, "Are you okay?"
Add your head and speak smoothly.
After a long while, he said in a deep voice: "Stay away from this kind of man, he is not worthy of you."
Jon:???
What a bloody plot.
Dama.
This kind of thing must not happen to me!
He coughed lightly, "You misunderstood..."
Before she could finish her words, Sonosaki Saeko took the lead and said, "Katou Jun, please apologize to my fiancé!"
