The person who asked this question was Miura.
"It's nothing." Takasugi smiled at Miura, "It's just a little lesson for the next rude old man."
Gao Shan briefly told everyone at the banquet what happened to him just now.
"Amazing." A skinny man sitting next to Takasugi patted Takasugi's shoulder, "I never thought you'd look like a samurai not long after you became a samurai!"
Hearing his friend's praise, Takasugi smiled even more happily.
"Although Takasugi-kun defends the glory of the samurai, there is nothing wrong with it." But at this time, someone said in a worried tone, "But this is Xu Tianya after all, it is better to keep a low profile as much as possible, so as not to cause any trouble."
As one of the best luxury tea houses in Osaka, those who can come to Xu Tianya for consumption are not ordinary people.
"Don't worry. Looking at the old man's appearance, he is probably just a waiter here! There is nothing to be afraid of!" After finishing speaking, Takasugi waved his hands proudly.
At this moment, in a certain room not far from Ogata and the others
"I understand the specific reasons." Yukimura nodded solemnly, "Do you want me to help investigate the disappearance in Kansai?"
The tall young man sitting opposite Yukimura nodded: "That's right. Once you have any results, report to us immediately, and everything about remuneration is negotiable."
As soon as the young man finished speaking, Yukimura quickly waved his hands: "This kind of trivial matter doesn't need any reward!"
"My lord, leave this matter to me with confidence! I won't do it tomorrow, and I will arrange people to find clues to the disappearance later!"
The young man nodded: "Then I will trouble you."
At this time, a confidant of Yukimura suddenly walked up to Yukimura's side and whispered something into Yukimura's ear.
As soon as the confidant's words fell, Yukimura's face changed slightly.
"My lord, please wait here for a moment. I have some urgent matters, so I have to excuse you for a moment."
"It's okay, if you have anything to do, go get busy first. Anyway, I've finished all the important things I want to tell you."
After thanking Makimura several times, Yukimura walked out of the room quickly.
As soon as he walked out of the room, Yukimura saw an old man in plain clothes.
"Father-in-law." Yukimura asked the old man anxiously, "What happened? Who is being so rude to you?"
This old man's name is Kameda Taisuke. Compared with his name, his identity is more resounding than Yukimura's father-in-law.
He is a wealthy businessman in Nagasaki, and a savage man like Yukimura who eats both black and white. About 20 years ago, he married his daughter to Yukimura, and he married Yukimura as in-laws.
In recent years, due to his advanced age, Kameda has handed over the family business to his eldest son.
He wanted to retire at this point, but found himself a restless person.
After a few days at home, he felt uncomfortable all over.
Kameda can no longer intervene in the business that consumes brainpower and energy, so in order to pass the boring time, he does his favorite thing to do, cleaning.
For some reason, Kameda loves cleaning very much, so he worked as a cleaner in their Kameda's shop.
Kameda started from scratch by himself, and it took countless hardships to create such a family business.
Because of suffering, Kameda has been simple, and always wears a very simple attire no matter when.
Kameda, who lives in Nagasaki, regularly visits Osaka every spring to meet his daughter and son-in-law.
Kameda went to Osaka at the beginning of spring as usual this year, and just arrived in Osaka 10 days ago.
After arriving in Osaka and being warmly received by Yukimura, Kameda knew that his son-in-law had recently purchased such a luxurious tea house as Xu Tianya.
Kameda's "cleaning spirit" was on fire immediately.
At his age, he has never cleaned the tea house!
So since coming to Osaka, Kameda has been working as a "temporary cleaner" at Xutian House from time to time.
Yukimura also knows his father-in-law's weird hobby, out of respect for his father-in-law, Yukimura let Kameda's weird hobby go, anyway, this hobby is not dangerous, and it won't bring him any trouble, but I didn't expect an accident today up.
"Yogoro." Kameda said slowly to Yukimura in a deep voice, "I was almost hacked by a rude guy just now."
Kameda told Yukimura about the series of encounters he had just had in the corridor.
After he understood the reason and what happened, Yukimura snorted coldly: "I can't even wear a knife well, yet I still have the face to scold others."
Before he had any great achievements, Kameda betrothed his precious daughter to him. Yukimura has always admired his father-in-law extremely.
Father-in-law was treated so rudely by a stunned young man, so he couldn't turn a blind eye no matter what.
"Father-in-law, do you remember which room that kid entered, right? That's easy to handle."
Yukimura turned his head to the side, and asked the cronies behind him: "Go and check, I want to know who is in that room."
The confidant agreed and left quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the confidant returned to Yukimura's side holding a thick notebook.
"That room is reserved by Taro Miura of Miura House to hold a banquet tonight." The confidant flipped through the thick book quickly.
"Miura house? It's still a familiar name. Miura Taro is the son of Miura Keimon, right? If that's the case, then it's easy to handle." Yukimura sneered a few times, "How dare you pull out my father-in-law in my territory Dao father-in-law, don't worry, I will go and seek justice for you in person immediately."
At this time, Chuguang had already played the third and last piece.
After hearing Chuguang play the third piece, Ogata couldn't help feeling relieved that tonight's task was finally about to be completed.
After Chuguang finishes playing the third piece, they can leave here.
At that time, the work of Ogata and A-cho as a "temporary worker" will be declared over.
However, at this moment, when Chuguang's third piece was just less than halfway through, the only two doors in the room were opened at the same time.
Afterwards, more than a dozen people dressed as warriors entered the room along the door that was slammed open.
The sudden arrival of these uninvited guests startled everyone in the room, and Chu Guang's piano sound also stopped at this moment.
Shibata, who was sitting next to Ogata, subconsciously stood up and stood in front of Hatsuguang.
Ogata knelt and sat on the spot calmly, without moving but like a professional habit, he subconsciously observed the positions of the dozen or so warriors who suddenly rushed into the room
And in what order should cut them, in order to kill them most efficiently
At the moment before the task tonight was about to be completed, something happened unexpectedly. Neither Ogata nor A-cho felt surprised or resented by it.
Both of them are quite calm, and both have a feeling of "getting used to it" and "unexpected and reasonable".
"Who are you guys?! Why did you break into my room!" Miura stood up with a "huh" at this moment, and shouted angrily.
Among all the people at the banquet, Miura has the most background and energy. Miura can be said to be the backbone of their group.Therefore, after Miura got up and yelled so imposingly to the group of uninvited guests, the expressions of everyone in the room, who were originally panic-stricken, gradually calmed down.
Very few people also stood up like Miura, and loudly questioned these people who broke up suddenly.
"You are Taro Miura, right?" At this moment, a faint voice sounded from outside the room, "You look a lot like your father. Don't worry, I won't bother you for too long. After I help my father-in-law get justice, I will Leave immediately."
As soon as the faint voice fell, Ogata and the others saw an old man and a middle-aged man with a cross scar on his face, one after the other, entered the room.
After seeing the middle-aged man with the cross scar on his face, Miura, it should be said that most of the people in the room, including Chuguang and Shibata, all changed their expressions.
Especially Miura, the expression on his face changed the most exaggeratedly, the whole face immediately turned pale as if by magic: "Xing, Mr. Yukimura, why are you here?"
Yukimura ignored Miura's question, but asked Kameda:
"Father-in-law. Come and identify him. Who was the one who wanted to slash you just now?"
"That's the person." Kameda raised his finger and pointed at Takasugi, "He's the one who obviously didn't wear his sword properly, but instead scolded me for touching his sword and tried to cut me with it. "
When Yukimura first entered the room, Takasugi also immediately recognized that this person was the famous Yukimura.
Just now, when he saw Yukimura calling "father-in-law" to the old man he was playing with just now, Takasugi felt a chill rushing from his heels to Tianling Gai.
Now he has been frightened to the point where he is not drunk at all, and he doesn't have the smug look after playing with Kameda before. After Kameda put down his finger, Takasugi immediately knelt down on the ground in the position of Dogeza.
"No, I'm very sorry! It was all my fault just now! I didn't wear the knife properly!"
Takasugi apologized in a crying voice.
Takasugi has forgotten all about samurai glory and samurai dignity.
After Yukimura gave Takasugi a cold look, he turned to Kameda and asked:
"Father-in-law, what are you going to do with this kid?"
"Master Yukimura!" Miura boldly shouted at Yukimura at this time, "I am Taro Miura from Miura House!"
"I, my friend accidentally did something wrong. But you see that my friend has already made a mistake, can, can you please bypass him?"
No matter how stupid Miura was, he knew what was going on.
That guy Takasugi has offended Yukimura.
At this moment, Miura only felt that the whole world was spinning.
Although he and his group of friends are either rich or noble, they can only show their prestige in front of ordinary people.
In front of the real bigwigs in Osaka, the family fortune of their group is not worth mentioning at all.
And Yukimura happens to be that kind of "true boss".
Miura just made a deal with Yukimura before bragging about his family, how powerful it is.
In the blink of an eye, Yukimura appeared aggressively in front of his eyes
The rational part of his mind told Miura that he had to pretend to be dumb at this time, and he couldn't force himself to stand out.
But Miura's face-saving heart is always ready to move.
Almost all of his friends are here, if he is dumb at this moment, wouldn't he be like a coward and lose face?
After weighing the pros and cons, Miura finally decided to stand up for face!
Miura who suddenly spoke out drew Yukimura's attention.
"You Miuraya just did business with me a while ago, so I don't want to say anything too nasty to you. This is a personal enmity between me and your friend, so don't interrupt."
Yukimura was extremely rude to Miura's words, it can be said that he didn't give Miura any face.
But Miura didn't even have the guts to be angry with Yukimura
After hearing what Yukimura said just now, he immediately shut his mouth tightly, not daring to say another word.
From just now, Kameda has been looking at Takasugi who is kneeling and apologizing with thoughtful eyes.
The short time of less than 1 minute made Takasugi, Miura and others feel as long as a century.
Finally, for Takasugi at this time, such words came to his ears:
"Forget it." Kameda shook his head, "Since this kid has apologized, let's let this matter pass."
As soon as Kameda's words fell, Takasugi immediately kowtowed and thanked loudly.
Not only Takasugi breathed a sigh of relief, but Miura also felt relieved.
Seeing that the matter can be resolved peacefully this time, Miura only felt that the big stone in his heart had fallen to the ground.
Ogata calmly watched all these things about Miura and the others, so he didn't bother to care.
His job now is to protect Chuguang.
"Father-in-law, since you said that, then follow what you say."
Since his father-in-law said "forget it", Yukimura didn't say much, and respected the old man's choice.
He still has a VIP to entertain, so he doesn't want to waste too much time here.
Just when Yukimura was about to call his subordinates to leave, he finally noticed Hatsumitsu sitting in the corner of the room with the shamisen in his arms.
When Yukimura and the others first broke into the room, Chuguang's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure.
Chu Guang also took a calm and on the sidelines attitude towards everything that happened in front of his eyes just now.
Yukimura, who finally noticed Hatsumitsu at this moment, looked at Hatsumitsu thoughtfully for a while, then strode towards Hatsumitsu.
"Miss Chuguang, long time no see." Yukimura smiled warmly as he walked towards Chuguang.
Chuguang once played at a banquet that Yukimura attended, so Yukimura and Chuguang met each other.
"Master Yukimura." Chu Guang smiled and saluted Yukimura, "Long time no see."
"I didn't expect you to perform here tonight." At this time, Yukimura had already walked up to Chuguang, "I'm very sorry, I seem to have interrupted your performance."
Chuguang shook his head and said a lot of very official clichés.
Hatsumitsu and Yukimura came and went, and after some simple greetings, Yukimura cleared his throat:
"Miss Chuguang, to be honest, I have an old friend here tonight."
