The man rescued from Kabukicho

The melodious plucked string music of the shamisen, if it is on a musical occasion, someone will appreciate it attentively, and it becomes the background sound of a social reception, which has a somewhat arty taste.

However, this is a reception hosted by Kamoichi Moriyama, the former Minister of Health, Labor and Welfare who is about to win the Tokyo governor election, so it is no wonder that it is so.

This boss maintains a very good external image, but he is notoriously greedy for his internal reputation.

Assistant Zhuwu was judging in his heart, and suddenly heard a very soft click, as if he thought this place was boring.

is the dean.

Assistant Takeya laughed silently.

This reception was nothing important. As the head of the Yijiyuan consortium, there was no need for the dean to attend. Since he came, he didn't just show his face and leave. Naturally, he had another purpose.But since he has come for another purpose, he has to dislike it again. It feels like asking for trouble, Bamboo House thought with a slightly wicked taste.

Noticing the commotion at the entrance, Zhuwu's assistant stepped forward and whispered in the dean's ear, "Here we come."

Yijiin Kazumi looked coldly, and Moriyama was about to smile all over his face, and was welcoming a late visitor.

This distinguished guest, surrounded by assistants and bodyguards, is Ms. Noriko Murakami, the leader of the Democratic Party who holds many seats in Congress.

Although she is only 47 years old and much younger than Moriyama, she is now the leader of a party, and Kaname Moriyama, who is also a faction of the Minjo Party, naturally treats her with courtesy.

After the greetings over there reached a certain level, Yijiyuan walked over.

When Moriyama saw him, he hurriedly introduced to Ms. Murakami: "This is the chairman of the Yijiyuan Consortium, Yijuin Kazumi."

Without waiting for Ijuin to greet him, Murakami Noriko laughed, stretched out her hand, and said heartily, "It's a thunderous blow. There is no need to talk about commercial achievements. Mr. Ijuin resigned from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. The cabinet is a loss of talent."

Yijiyuan shook hands with kindness, and said indifferently: "You are an award. Compared with my humble achievements based on my family, you, a female politician who breaks prejudices like you, are more admirable."

What he said was also a cliché, but he said it in a rather cold tone, without a sense of flattery, but as if he was stating a reality, so it sounded like a rather sincere illusion.

Murakami Noriko narrowed her eyes, her expression was meaningful, but her tone was more cordial: "Mr. Ijuin is really good at coaxing people. He is worthy of being the owner of Ijuin. He is so good that people are frightened. Speaking of it, the relationship between Mr. Ijuin and Mr. Moriyama's master and apprentice is still the same. That's good, you take the time to come in such a busy season."

Hearing what she said, Moriyama couldn't help feeling a little proud.

Yijiyuan said indifferently: "The teacher has taught me a lot, if you can spare time, you should be there to support me."

He regarded himself as a disciple when he said this, and Moriyama was even more smiling when he heard it.

Afterwards, Yijuyuan changed the subject: "Recently, there has been a lot of noise in the news. Murakami Sangki is the party leader, and he can come here despite his busy schedule. It must be very optimistic about the prospects of the teacher's election."

Speaking of this, the two important figures of the Democratic Party present couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

As a result of natural disasters and man-made disasters, the two scandals most criticized by the people: one is the ineffective disaster relief in a certain place, and the other is the judicial injustice exposed by the construction accident. They are all new generations who are expected.

What was more embarrassing than these two incidents was Makoto Kishio, who was pushed out by the Popular Democratic Party to run for the Tokyo governor election.

As soon as Moriyama was encouraged by Ijuin and announced his candidacy, Makoto Kishio held a press conference and announced in a high-profile manner that he had left the Democratic Party.

Originally, this was nothing to the Democratic Party. Looking at what he did later, Noriko Murakami and most people in the party felt that fortunately this person had nothing to do with the Democratic Party.

But who would have thought that, seeing that the election was hopeless, recently, Makoto Kishio and his partner Mirei Kasuga are like entertainers who want to be popular and crazy, constantly bursting out amazing remarks to attract attention, and appearing on variety shows everywhere, every few days. Empty and black a Democratic Party.

Especially after these two scandals broke out, Makoto Kishio was jealous of these two new generations who had been cultivated and took office early in the local area. Now that he seizes the opportunity, he has an attitude of wanting to completely kill the political lives of these two people. It is mentioned countless times every day.

Because these two scandals just broke out, and the public is at the peak of antipathy, Makoto Kishio continues to scold the Democratic Party on the show and the Internet. Even if he is suspected of public revenge, he still gets a lot of applause and attention.

In this way, it is conceivable how bad the Democratic Party's reputation has been recently.

Murakami Noriko restored her smile in the blink of an eye, and said softly: "It is indeed a headache for me. Although the prospect of Moriyama's election, even though it is a big victory at the moment, it may be cast a shadow because of it. It's a pity that our party does not have such talents as Mr. Yijiyuan, otherwise, with your famous cabinet skills back then, you must be able to handle it properly."

Moriyama was reminded by her words, suddenly realized, and asked Yijiyuan for advice: "Is there any way?"

Yijiyuan said indifferently: "I'm just a businessman, so what skills can I speak of. However, from the perspective of the business world, it is still not the Democratic Party's turn to be in the top spot that has been in trouble recently. 'That' went to the United States to negotiate trade. The agreement has dissatisfied many bigwigs in the business world, and there is also a lot of opposition from the people."

Moriyama and Murakami Noriko knew who "that person" was referring to.Although the scale of the Democratic Party is far smaller than that of the ruling party, and there is almost no hope of ascending to power, they also hope that things will become a big problem, so that "that person" will take the blame and resign. Yi, maybe they have already contributed to the flames.

Yijuin is not stupid, why bring this up?

"Since it is impossible to replace the superior, from the shallow perspective of me as a businessman, if the interests are the same at the critical moment, it is not a bad idea to cooperate," Ijuin explained slowly, "There are two ready-made topic figures, Makoto Kishio and Mirei Kasuga, Moreover, it is a ready-made opportunity for them to reach the peak of public opinion, so, whether it is "taking stock of Makoto Kishio's many mistresses", or "Mirei Kasuga who lied about being bullied is actually the leader of bullying", etc. Such successive scandals are enough to attract the attention of the people of the whole country. "The clown who climbed the tall building fell to the ground when he was most complacent". How many people will pay attention to such a wonderful serial drama? ?”

Noriko Murakami's eyes lit up, but she frowned again and said, "Although the current topic of these two gutter mice is annoying, it's only in Tokyo, and it's far from the 'peak of public opinion'. .And the scandal you mentioned, is there any solid evidence?"

Yijiyuan nodded slightly: "Of course there is evidence. As for the degree of topic, you are very correct, but isn't this the place where the cooperation of 'that' is needed? Can this play become a joke for audiences across the country... In the business world Those who are close to the factions of the ruling party, there is no lack of newspapers and entertainment giants."

At the end of hearing, Moriyama and Murakami looked at each other, and they both understood.

After a moment of silence.

"It's so pitiful," Noriko Murakami seemed to have seen the ending of Makoto Kishio and Mirei Kasuga, and sighed, "Showing up the public, I only want to climb the ladder, and I don't want to be so miserable when I fall down."

Moriyama said disdainfully: "Without talent, but wanting fame and fortune, this kind of ending is just right."

Yijiyuan grinned in his heart.

"Good words," he complimented.

The dean headed towards the target, but Assistant Zhuwu sensibly did not follow, there was no room for him in that kind of conversation.

Why not take this opportunity to fill your stomach.

Although the dean doesn't like the food here, his little assistant is not that picky.

Calculating the time it might take for the dean to talk, Bamboo House quickly fetched a plate of food for himself from the self-service area, sat down at the bar, and had a quick meal.

In the booth behind, there were two older ladies chatting.

Zhuwu has a very strict mouth, but in fact he loves to listen to gossip, especially Gossip gossip. With such an aboveboard opportunity to eavesdrop, he naturally pricked up his ears.

As a result, they were chatting, and the topic turned around to the dean. When it came to the topic of "how popular Yijiyuan and his ministers are", Zhuwu has too much first-hand information, so there is no need to eavesdrop.

Takeya sighed boredly in his heart.

But these two noble ladies obviously still have the level of gossip, because they gradually talked about the early things of the Yijiyuan family.

"I heard from my aunt that Kazutomi-san's grandfather, the foreign prince-like Ijuin Takao, is more handsome than Kazutomi-san. I've seen the photos, and it's true."

"The one who said the mother was English?"

"Well. I heard that lady is the daughter of a minor British nobleman? She must have been very famous back then, because she was a beautiful foreign lady. She was a rare foreign lady, and she was fortunate enough to be called into the palace and received by the queen."

"Huh? Daughter of a nobleman? You really don't know anything."

"Eh? How do you say it? Tell me quickly."

"I don't know if it's true or not, but there are rumors in private that the British woman's family is not a nobleman at all, and the Yijiyuan family was cheated. They didn't want to lose face, and they didn't dare to bear the charge of deceiving the palace, so they endured it." .”

"What? No, so there is no proof?"

"Of course I said that because of the evidence. At that time, a missionary from England saw her and was so frightened that she was a murderer. It is said that it was a case that caused a sensation in England. The girl ran away after killing her father and stepmother. The arrest warrants for him were everywhere, so the missionary recognized him. But later, the missionary changed his words and said that he had made a mistake."

"It's scary, there is such a thing... But it must be a mistake, right? My aunt still said it very fondly, because the lady is very kind-hearted and likes cats very much, so when she was young, she and other children called her 'cat' Ma'am?"

"Who knows if it's true or not? It's been so many years. However, you really like the Yijiyuan family, why don't you try to marry your little niece?"

"Don't make fun of me. In terms of family history and property, who wouldn't want to marry the Yijiyuan family? But let's not say that they look down on them. The men in their family are quite cold in personality, and they don't fit in with my family's personality."

"Oh? It seems that I have thought about it seriously~"

"Ah, you are really evil."

After finishing his Chinese meal, Zhuwu hurriedly left his seat before the flirting of the two lady's girlfriends continued.

That foreign lady... Takeya thought of the photos she saw in the albums of her ancestors. Even if it was an old photo, she could tell that she was a beautiful woman who would affirm her beauty regardless of the aesthetics of the East and the West.

At this time, his looking eyes locked on the dean, and he walked over quickly.

With that kind of great-beautiful great-grandmother, the hybrid gene really has an advantage in appearance, and Takeya couldn't help sighing enviously.

"What?" Yijiyuan asked with a little disgust.

Zhuwu hurriedly shook his head: "Nothing."

Yijiyuan didn't care, and said coldly: "Get ready to go."

"Yes."

When Yijiin returned home, Cirou was on the sofa in the living room, staring at the TV in a daze.
