Shirakawa Sawahei somewhat persistently asked, "Aren't you at all suspicious..."
The sentence was never finished, as suddenly Asano Fūsei's voice sounded from the stage, indicating that the banquet's theme was about to begin. Everyone stopped talking and turned their heads to look at the Head of the Hayakawa Family standing on the stage.
Faced with such a situation, Shirakawa Sawahei had no choice but to temporarily suppress his doubts and listen carefully to Asano Fūsei speaking on stage. This Head of the Hayakawa Family, who appeared somewhat frivolous, was quite adept at controlling the atmosphere of the entire event. His words were humorous, and his logic clear. He seemed like someone who was born to be on the stage.
He first rambled on to the guests on stage for a while, and when the time was about right, he mysteriously invited the renowned piano master, George Slater, onto the stage.
