Hearing those two keywords, I was the first to speak.
"Senior, who is this Mitaka you mentioned?"
Before Senior Rongfeng could speak, Daoist Feiyun beside him spoke up.

Uncle Yu frowned.
Zhang Yuchen spoke up.
"Brother Jiang, Senior Yu, are you saying that the Mitaka Senior Rong mentioned is the Mitaka Kojiro in the photograph?"
