Chapter 297

The black gemstone in the space is more than twice as big as this one.

It's just that there are constantly water-spirit ghosts emerging from it, so it can't be taken out for appraisal casually.

Speaking of which, the gold he got from Shikine Island seemed to have sold for only a little over one billion yen, right?

Now this one gemstone is five times the price.

Sure enough, in this world, gemstones are the most valuable.

No wonder those phantom thieves like to steal gemstones.

Suzuki Jirokichi also took the gemstone, looked at it intoxicatedly for a long time, and then put the ruby down.

He said respectfully, "Lord Akaso, this ruby of yours is an absolute treasure. I have a presumptuous request; in a month, our Suzuki family will hold a jewelry exhibition in the museum, and I hope to borrow this gemstone of yours for the exhibition."

"Borrow for the exhibition?" Akaso Kaze thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "It's just a small matter, no problem."

The Suzuki family just gave him a villa worth one billion; borrowing a gemstone for an exhibition is no big deal.

What's more, these gemstones will be sold sooner or later.

Using the Suzuki family's exhibition to build a reputation, maybe it can sell for even more.

"The Suzuki family's exhibition? The gemstone of the strongest Onmyoji in Tokyo, Lord Akaso Kaze!"

Tokitsu Junya, who had just arrived in Tokyo, looked at the newspaper in his hand and revealed a creepy smile.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number.

"Ms. Vermouth, I heard that to become an peripheral member of the organization, one must complete the organization's test."

"Yes."

"I also heard that Akaso Kaze is the test target selected by the organization."

"That's right."

"Then, I have a plan..."

Vermouth on the other side listened to his plan and was silent for a few seconds.

Then she shrugged and said, "Your plan is very dangerous! We have always kept to ourselves with those phantom thieves; if we annoy them, it won't do our organization any good at all."

"However, if you do this in your own name, it will be fine."

"If anything goes wrong, you know the consequences."

"Of course." Tokitsu Junya said through gritted teeth, "My plan will definitely not fail."

"Hehe, then let's wait and see."

Vermouth hung up the phone.

A few days later, America.

Lupin III received a call, and Fujiko Mine's voice came through:

"Lupin, I'm in Tokyo now. I've set my eyes on a very beautiful ruby; I want it!"

"If you can't steal it for me, then I'll have to use my body to exchange it with its owner; you know, its owner is very handsome..."

Ishikawa Goemon held his sword in his arms and leaned against Lupin: "Lupin, if I were you, I would absolutely not believe her."

In the past, Fujiko Mine using this method to trick Lupin into stealing gemstones wasn't the first or second time!

Lupin nodded seriously: "You're right, her words are absolutely unbelievable!"

"Hmm?" Daisuke Jigen and Ishikawa Goemon turned their heads to look at Lupin together, full of astonishment.

In the past, whenever Lupin encountered something related to Fujiko Mine, his IQ would automatically drop to a negative number, and he would fall for even the trashiest traps, right?

What's going on today?

Lupin actually doesn't believe Fujiko Mine?

The two were wondering when Lupin had already angrily slapped the table.

"Fujiko Mine actually said she's going to find that Onmyoji?! What's so good about that charlatan? Can he be more handsome than me? She must be lying to me!"

"Uh~"

Daisuke Jigen and Ishikawa Goemon both had black lines on their foreheads, speechless to the extreme.

Don't you big monkey ever look in the mirror?

Lupin howled twice, then quieted down, got up and said: "Partners, I'll trouble you; we have to go to Japan."

"Hmm." Daisuke Jigen and Ishikawa frowned, not objecting.

In this kind of matter, it's useless for them to object.

Lupin laughed and said: "I've heard of that strongest Onmyoji in Tokyo long ago."

"Even Kaitou Kid has suffered losses at his hands."

"Coincidentally, we can take this opportunity to meet that Lord Akaso Kaze!"

"Let's see how powerful he really is." ===== CHAPTER 299 =====
