Tokyo's most affectionate

"Because you broke up with him, I'm thinking about whether to disband the agency." Igarashi Runa nodded and continued.

"Dissolve the firm? Then what will you do?"

Hearing her thoughts, Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't hold back any longer.

Ruina quit her high-paying job at Phantom Star Agency, left behind her previous resources and artists, and ran out to start a business.

If Zero Hour Agency was disbanded, it would mean that she would really be left with nothing.

"Are you still worried that I can't find a new job? Although I don't have many artists, with my ability, if you give me a few more years, even if I can't get back to the high salary I had before, I will have no pressure to support myself."

Seeing that she still cared about him, Runa Igarashi smiled, and immediately raised his right arm and shook his fist, indicating his wrist and strength.

"Then you will become a worker again, right?"

Ninomiya Chizuru was somewhat worried about this decision.

When Runa resigned and got drunk to vent his anger, he was full of ambition and determined not to be an employee again.

Everything was going well at first. The agency was opened, and the pianist Lingshi became famous overnight. He even became a legend in the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan and was directly hailed as the number one pianist in Japan.

Under such circumstances, as long as Runa conducts business exchanges with major brand owners and selects suitable and mutually beneficial endorsements for Zero Hour, the company will start to make profits and officially take off.

It is obvious that Zero Hour Agency had so much potential, but it was forced to close down. This result is too tragic.

"It doesn't matter. It's just a part-time job. Compared to this, your relationship with him has become so strained. It would feel weird if I still cooperate with him."

Igarashi Runa waved her hand and didn't care.

"Just because my relationship with him is very tense doesn't mean it's the same for you." Ninomiya Chizuru was a little confused.

"I am your best friend first, and he is your ex-boyfriend. Although it is very profitable to continue to cooperate with him to start a company, I think you are more important. I don't want you to hate me."

"It's okay for you to continue to cooperate with him to start a company. Business is business, and personal matters are personal."

Although Ninomiya Chizuru was a little bothered, she didn't want her best friend's future to be affected by this matter.

If Runa's career, which was about to take off, came to a crashing halt because of this incident, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

"If I continue to cooperate with him, you really won't be angry?"

Seeing her attitude, Igarashi Runa also confirmed carefully.

"Compared to my opinion, whether he is willing to be Zero Hour is the question."

Ninomiya Chizuru nodded, confirmed this, and then spoke.

"That's right." Runa Igarashi paused when he heard the words, and agreed with his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart, and he was secretly happy.

If, after Chizuru turned away, Kurosawa Hikaru never sent any more messages, then the matter would be in suspense.

But Kurosawa Hikaru has not given up on Chizuru, and Chizuru still has this attitude. There is still room for maneuver, whether it is the agency or their relationship.

In fact, Igarashi Runa has complicated feelings towards Kurosawa Hikaru.

Perhaps the real Kurosawa Hikaru was beyond her expectations and was not a loyal man at all, but he was very frank and did not keep deceiving people until the end and be forced to expose himself. Instead, he took the initiative to bring things to the table and deal with them.

You say he is a scumbag, but he doesn't cheat on people for money or sex.

Although Chizuru took out million yuan to help Kurosawa start a business, his reaction at the time was shocking, and he had no such plan at all at first.

Moreover, he did not run away after defrauding the money. Instead, he actively acted as an artist, directly injecting considerable potential into the agency. He is talented and reliable.

You say he is not a scumbag, but he is not loyal at all. He is dating several girls at the same time and is planning to have multiple relationships at the same time.

What's more, he can even say such ridiculous things in a serious manner as "My heart is divided into three parts, all of which are of equal weight" and "Unknowingly, I've been dating everyone."

What makes Igarashi Runa depressed is that Kurosawa Hikaru is a playboy, so how come he has no feelings for her at all.

"I'm not bad either."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look down at herself.

She has a pretty face, a nice figure, and good taste in clothes.

"Ugh……"

Ninomiya Chizuru helped her solve her troubles, but she couldn't solve her own troubles and could only sigh quietly in her heart.

Although she knew that Kurosawa had not given up on her, this matter was really too difficult and she couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

In fact, she had been hesitating whether to reply to the message these past two days, and had edited the message many times.

But every time she wanted to send a message, the scene of Kurosawa kissing Ichinose Yuki and Shihouin Mirai in front of her would appear in front of her eyes and in her mind.

Igarashi Runa, who was standing by, saw that she was silent again and could roughly guess what was on her mind. She had something in mind.

"Ring ring ring!"

At this moment, a cell phone rang.

Hearing the ringtone, Chizuru Ninomiya came to her senses, picked up the phone, took a look at it, and then hung up without answering it.

"Is it Auntie's call again?"

Igarashi Runa guessed when she saw her decisive action of hanging up.

"Yes." Ninomiya Chizuru nodded.

Last Saturday, the news of her resignation from the University of Tokyo reached her parents.

Without the shield of being a teacher at the University of Tokyo, her parents immediately urged her to go to work at a bank.

In fact, when she resigned, she was planning to work in a bank.

Because she believes in Kurosawa's potential and strength, Zero Time Agency will soon rise, and in a few years, she will be able to leave the bank.

During this period, because she was no longer a teacher, she could develop freely with Kurosawa and do whatever she wanted without being separated by their identities.

But the problem is that when she took a desperate step, something like this happened between her and Kurosawa, and their relationship became very strained.

"Why don't you just tell her that you are starting a business?" Igarashi Runa realized her predicament and wanted to give her some advice.

"I told you, it's useless."

"What should I do?"

"I do not know either."

Ninomiya Chizuru, who was already upset and worried, was really troubled by this new problem.

Chapter 272 National Champion

The competition rules for the long-range shooting group are relatively strict, the registration requirements are very demanding, and the number of participants is the least among all events.

Even though today is a national competition, athletes have come to Tokyo from all over the country to participate in the long-shot competition, but their number is not large, with only 18 people in the men's and women's groups combined.

Having said that, precisely because there are so few people, each player is very strong.

The players in the second group performed well and had a high hit rate.

"Have a drink."

As Kurosawa Hikaru returned to the reserve seat, Uesugi Masaki came over and handed him a portable water bottle.

"Thank you teacher."

When Kurosawa Mitsuru saw his actions, he also took it with a smile.

Since he came on the court, he has been waiting in the preparation seat and he has not had any water for more than two hours.

"Have a good rest. I'll go retrieve the arrow."

Seeing him drinking water without sweating, Uesugi Masaki looked at him with great pride and complacency, and said the same thing.

The arrows used by Kyudo athletes are classified according to the length of their arms, and the lengths are not exactly the same.

Although the contestants can also provide arrows, usually it is more convenient and familiar to bring your own.

After exchanging a few simple pleasantries with him, Kurosawa Mitsuru took a few sips of water to moisten his throat, then closed the bottle cap, put it next to his feet, and started watching the game.

I'm just sitting there doing nothing, and I can't play with my phone or do anything else on the bench, so this is the only way.

The competition proceeded in an orderly manner. Not long after, the long-range shooting group competition ended. Including Kurosawa Mitsuru, a total of seven people advanced to the second round.

"This Kurosawa is really good."

Shifengyuan Zhenlong, who was sitting in the audience, was very satisfied when he saw this scene.

He always has a smile on his face. The more he sees other people's achievements and levels, the more satisfied and fond of Kurosawa Hikaru's potential and ability he feels.

This young man, even though he is still young, has such superb archery skills and such a strong physical talent, it will definitely be a matter of time before he stands on the top of the archery.

Shifengyuan Mirai sat next to her grandfather. Their seats were better, located on the side, so they could see the faces of all the contestants and the situation of the targets.

"Two?"

That's right, Shifengyuan Mirai also noticed the results achieved by Kurosawa Hikaru in the first round of archery.

"Did she do something?"

Noticing this, she slightly side-glanced and looked at the few people in the distance.

In that place, there was a blonde girl with blue eyes. She was very beautiful and dressed sweetly and elegantly.

She can actually influence Kurosawa's decision. It seems that Yuki Ichinose is more important to Kurosawa than she expected.

"Yuki, how come your boyfriend is so good at Kyudo?"

On the other side, Qiu Yuekui was simply stunned.

Ten arrows, all hit the bull's eye, this is crazy.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded, looking at Kurosawa Mitsuru in surprise, and then at Ichinose Yuki.

"whee."

Being stared at with envy by everyone and hearing everyone praising Guang Ni, Ichinose Yuki felt very proud.

"Hahaha, it's right to bring you guys to watch the game, right? Kurosawa Ze is really awesome."

Seeing everyone stunned and convinced, Shiina Ai was very excited.

Compared to the first round, the competition starts from the second round, and as the number of people decreases, the time will be relatively faster.

Of course, a competition is a competition, and kyudo competitions usually take place throughout the day, without skipping any part and without missing any player.

For this matter, Kurosawa Hikaru was quite patient.

After all, the individual competition is held in the morning and the team competition is held in the afternoon, so the players have to wait a long time.

In fact, there are also many people who sign up for individual competitions while participating in team competitions.

The reason why Kurosawa Hikaru did not participate in the team competition was, firstly, because the Kyudo Club of the University of Tokyo was not strong enough, and secondly, he was not interested in close shooting.

After a long wait, as the game continued to progress, the broadcast sounded, making the entire stadium hot again.

"Next, the second round of the men's individual long-range shooting competition will be held. Because there are only five men who have advanced to the second round, according to the rules, if there are less than six people, it will be the finals."

"The rules of the finals are different from the first round. Each person shoots 12 arrows. After shooting all 12 arrows, the one with the highest number of hits is the champion. If two people have the same number of hits, there will be no limit on the number of arrows they can shoot until whoever misses the target first is the runner-up."

"Contestants who heard your name, please come on stage one by one."

“Ritsumeikan…”

"The University of Tokyo, Kurosawa Hikaru."

"Kurosawa! Kurosawa! Kurosawa!"

As the announcer called out Kurosawa Hikaru's name again, the atmosphere in the venue was ignited once again. All the audience were eagerly shouting a name, as if they were welcoming a hero to appear.

Kurosawa Mitsuru couldn't wave his hand in response to the overwhelming cheers, because the etiquette of Kyudo did not allow such frivolous movements.

He just stood up, walked to the shooting point step by step, and then waited for the order.

For his players, this kind of cheering is like being on an away field, making people uneasy and even frustrated.

No matter what state the opponent was in, Kurosawa ignored it and just waited, shooting arrows when it was his turn.

There were no surprises and no suspense. There was no way that there would be any flaws in Kurosawa Mitsuru's archery skills.

In the national finals, Kurosawa Hikaru directly won the competition by hitting all 12 arrows.

"All hits! All hits again!"
