Chapter 1081 The man sitting next to Toshio Kamiya
Li Fan, who was surrounded by the crowd, looked helplessly at the suddenly enthusiastic guests around him, some of whom were not used to such an atmosphere.
On the other hand, Keiko, who often accompanied her family to various occasions, seemed to be more able to deal with it, and responded politely to all comers.
Those who gathered around and wanted to make friends with Li Fan saw that Li Fan didn't seem to have much intention to talk, so they turned their attention to Keiko.
These people who had never spoken to Keiko before were now all surrounding Keiko with great enthusiasm.
The feeling of being surrounded again after being left out for ten years made Keiko's eyes narrow into crescent moons.
Especially when thinking of the scene where Hezi lowered his head to apologize to her just now, the smile on Kezi's face became even brighter.
From the time her mother passed away to now, she has almost gotten used to the feeling of being under the care of others. Situations like this, being surrounded by others and being apologized to, have always only appeared in her dreams.
Suddenly the dream turned into reality, making Keiko look at Li Fan with some gratitude.
If it hadn't been for him, I might have been able to hide in a corner, watching the noise of the crowd, while being isolated from the world!
Thinking like this, Keiko couldn't help but stand on tiptoes, and her cold lips were printed on Li Fan's cheek.
"Thanks!"
A soft whisper sounded in his ears, and the cool touch on his cheek woke up Li Fan who was paying attention to the center of the venue. He had to turn around and said with a wry smile: "It's okay."
"Ahem!"
An inaudible cough seemed to resound in the center of the venue.
Even in the noisy crowd, Li Fan could clearly hear the cough with the help of his extraordinary hearing.
But he was obviously not the only one who heard it at the same time.
Almost at the same time that Li Fan heard it, those two slight coughs appeared in the ears of everyone in the venue.
Extremely subtle and clearly audible.
"Lord Toshio is here."
I don't know who it was, but suddenly shouted such a sentence. The crowd, which was noisy just a second ago, suddenly stopped all conversations uniformly, and the sound of needle drops could be heard in the huge venue.
The whole world seemed to be quiet at this moment.
The crowd surrounding Li Fan also dispersed like birds and beasts at this moment. Li Fan, who was able to escape from the entanglement, narrowed his eyes slightly and turned his attention to the center of the venue again.
There, there was an old man wearing Japanese clothes, sitting at a low wooden table.
In fact, Li Fan noticed the old man three minutes ago, but no one saw him before the coughing sound.
He has gray hair on his temples and drooped eyebrows, making him look like an ordinary old man. But if you look closely, you can see that he is a bit extraordinary.
On his face, there are two conspicuous scars, which are cross-shaped scars. On his neck, there is also a brown scar. Even on his exposed palms, various marks can be seen.
Small wounds.
It's hard to imagine why such an old man could have so many scars.
Just the visible skin is covered with so many scars, and how many invisible wounds must be hidden under that black and white Japanese uniform.
"Thank you all for attending this tea party hosted by Toshio Kamiya."
The old voice resounded throughout the entire audience.
The old man at the wooden table held the teapot steadily in his right hand and filled himself a cup, while also filling the teacup on the empty seat opposite him.
Everyone noticed the old man's self-absorbed behavior and wondered who the owner of the empty seat would be.
Who is the lucky person to be invited by Toshio Kamiya to sit with him?
Is it the middle-aged man next to him?
Some people glanced at the Mediterranean man standing next to Toshio Kamiya and shook their heads.
They knew that man, but he was just a cabinet minister and not qualified to sit with Toshio Kamiya.
Could it be Ryosuke Koizumi?
Everyone hesitantly looked around the arena and nodded secretly.
It should be.
Koizumi Yusuke looked at his father proudly. Among everyone present, except Kamiya Toshio, his father had the highest status in terms of status.
Not only does he hold an important position in Japanese politics, but he is also the current head of the Koizumi family. With this status, he should be a guest of Toshio Kamiya.
At this moment, no one paid attention to Li Fan, who had risen to fame. Compared to Toshio Kamiya who had just appeared, Li Fan's unknown identity was no longer important.
No matter how they speculate, they don't think that the young Li Fan has the qualifications to be compared with Toshio Kamiya, and even Ryosuke Koizumi is not comparable to him.
Keiko, who had just walked out from the crowd, looked at the wooden table with a hint of awe.
This was not the first time she saw Toshio Kamiya from a distance, but she had never had a chance to talk to him.
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t.
Just like where the two of them were at this moment, even though they were only a few meters apart, it was like a divine punishment that separated them.
Their identities are too different.
As a long-renowned Grand Master in Japan, Toshio Kamiya enjoys too much respect, but she is just the daughter of a small minister.
However, she was also curious. Normally, Toshio Kamiya would not attend such tea parties. He just gave everyone a platform to communicate. But today, the tea party had just started when Toshio Kamiya walked out.
Such behavior seems a bit unusual.
With everyone watching in awe, Toshio Kamiya spoke again.
"Everyone, I think it is necessary for me to apologize to everyone in advance."
Beneath Toshio Kamiya's calm appearance, he seems to be hiding an uneasy heart: "Originally, today was supposed to be an ordinary tea party, but yesterday, I unexpectedly received news that an unexpected friend actually
Come to Japan as a guest."
One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and Kamiya Toshio's words instantly aroused everyone's strong curiosity.
They had never seen Toshio Kamiya have any friends.
"Lord Toshio's friend must be someone who is also at the top of Japan, or even the world!"
Keiko folded her little hands and looked at her with eager eyes, as if she herself was Toshio Kamiya's friend who had not known each other for many years.
"Maybe!"
Li Fan just responded with a wry smile.
When he saw Toshio Kamiya and Manoshima standing together, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Especially when I saw the ancient sword beside the table, this premonition became even stronger.
He felt the fighting spirit from the sword that had been passed down for hundreds of years, the fighting spirit from Toshio Kamiya.
"Ding dong!"
Just when Li Fan frowned, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly buzzed, attracting dissatisfied looks from the people around him.
When I attended Onoya's tea party, I didn't even know about Shizune.
