Chapter 180 A big reward will always bring courage

Although it is next to a creek, there are still relatively flat areas.

After laying out the picnic cloth, Kurosawa Hikaru put down the large bento and began to open it layer by layer.

On each floor, different dishes are displayed.

There is shredded pork with green pepper, fruit salad, tempura, secret spicy wings, and rice.

"It's so rich...and there's soup?"

Ninomiya Chizuru sat down with her legs crossed and watched him take out things one by one. She was surprised every time he took out something, with her index fingers wide open. But after seeing the soup, she suddenly lost her composure.

If the bento comes with soup, it will be a qualitative change, directly different from the ordinary bento, and directly become a luxurious bento.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so I made some of everything." Kurosawa put down each item one by one and said with a smile.

"There's so much, have you finished eating?"

Ninomiya Chizuru was a little worried after the surprise.

Her belly is not very big, so even when she is hungry, she cannot eat much.

"The portion size has been considered. If you can't finish it, take it back for dinner in the evening and start eating."

Kurosawa Hikaru was not very worried about this and smiled.

After that, he directly picked up a box of lunch and started eating.

After working for so long, he was already hungry.

"I'm gonna start now."

Seeing his action, Ninomiya Chizuru didn't hesitate too much. She just felt grateful. After clasping her hands together, she picked up the chopsticks.

She picked up the shredded green pepper pork first, because it looked spicy, which she liked better.

"Hmm... delicious." As the spicy and tender shredded meat entered her mouth, Ninomiya Chizuru's eyes immediately lit up.

"If you like it, of course it's the best."

Seeing her reaction, Kurosawa breathed a sigh of relief.

Shredded pork with green pepper is neither Japanese food nor Western food. It has nothing to do with skills. It is a dish that he considers to be good at. Even though it is not as good as a restaurant, it still tastes good.

"Invite Xiao Yuki, Miss Ninomiya, and Mirai to compete together..."

When the meal officially started, Kurosawa Hikaru looked at her thoughtfully while eating.

The appearance of the perfect-level exclusive mission just now really shocked him.

The first is the reward, the Bow of Yangyouji... This thing, just by looking at its name, is awesome.

You know, Yang Youji is the best marksman in the Spring and Autumn Period, and even the strongest marksman in history, bar none.

In addition, for the first time, the system rewards things other than skills.

And this mission seems to be very rare, from all angles.

Having said that, the first mission goal of this challenge mission seems simple, but it contains hidden murderous intent.

As the saying goes, rivals in love are extremely jealous when they meet.

There is another saying: three women and one drama.

It's scary to think about what will happen when three women who are rivals in love are brought together.

"However, evading all the time is not an option. They will eventually meet. It's just a matter of sooner or later."

Although he felt troubled, Kurosawa Hikaru was ready to make a move and kept making calculations in his mind.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

Perhaps the reward of the system has never been money, but after these days of personal experience, Kurosawa Hikaru has deeply realized a truth.

The system's rewards are countless times more valuable than money.

You know, money can indeed buy most things in the world, but not everything.

Singing, swimming, surfing, painting, parkour, archery, piano, cooking, photography, driving, makeup.

System skills are only entry-level, equivalent to abilities that ordinary people can acquire only after a lifetime of hard work.

As for the mastery level and the perfect level, it is even more terrifying. These talents cannot be bought with money.

These skills are not just something he can use. Once he gets a permanent reward, he will have the talent and knowledge in that field, and his body will be changed from the inside out, and even new cognition will be generated.

For example, just now, he saw Chizuru Ninomiya standing by the water, like a beautiful figure in the water... As a photographer, painter, and pianist, inspiration burst out of his heart like a volcano erupting, intertwined with Heart.

This kind of experience was something he had never had before... If he were in the past, he would probably only think "It's so beautiful" when he saw such a scene, but it was different now.

"Why are you staring at me?"

Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't relax as he kept staring at her, she couldn't help but said.

"Guess why there are so many people sitting around you in the central cafeteria of Dongda University?"

Kurosawa Hikaru's thoughts were interrupted and he asked a question without answering.

"No, there are so many people there every day, just because where I sit is relatively close to the meal pick-up point."

After hearing this statement, Ninomiya Chizuru was stunned for a moment and then explained.

She is not narcissistic enough to think that everyone is sitting around her, and the seats in the cafeteria are all free to sit.

"It's not that simple. Even if you change your position and sit farther away, everyone will still gradually gather around you."

"Why?"

“Because it’s beautiful and delicious, eating while looking at beautiful women makes people feel more happy while eating.”

"Don't generalize your thoughts to everyone. It's not as exaggerated as what you said."

Ninomiya Chizuru felt a little happy when she learned the reason why he was staring at her, and then rolled her eyes at him.

"Speaking of which, haven't I been joining the Kyudo Club recently? I also participate in club activities on weekends and receive special training."

Kurosawa Hikaru smiled, knowing that she was shy, so he changed his topic.

"It is true, what's the matter?"

When this topic came up, Ninomiya Chizuru, who was eating fried shrimp tempura, felt her heart beat faster. She put her hands on her hair and asked calmly on the surface.

She vaguely felt that what Kurosawa Hikaru was going to say next was probably to invite her to watch the game.

In fact, she knew about this a long time ago, but she never took the initiative to bring it up, wanting to wait for him to tell her in person.

"Actually, this is because there will be an individual competition in the National University Kyudo Competition on August 10th, and Mr. Uesugi wants me to represent the University of Tokyo to participate in the competition."

Kurosawa Hikaru saw her little action, smiled, and then made up his mind.

"How good is your Kyudo level to represent the school to participate in the competition?"

Hearing this, Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't help asking.

Although she didn't know much about Kyudo, because she had investigated during this period, she knew that the coach of the Kyudo Club, Mr. Uesugi, was a very powerful Kyudo master.

Being recognized by such a master, I always feel that he is not just playing around in archery.

"How good is my level? Why don't you come and see me when the time comes?"

Kurosawa Hikaru thought about it and didn't say it out loud, but pretended to be mysterious.

Some things don't have to be said openly.

Because of concealment, there will be surprises.

Because of expectations, there will be passion.

In love, there is a saying of seven-year itch. This is not because the relationship is not good enough, but because two people have gone through too much time together and know each other too well, and will gradually lose the initial passion and love.

That's why, in love, preparing surprises and passion is very important for both parties.

"Okay, I'll see if you can win glory for the school when the time comes."

Seeing that he deliberately concealed his true thoughts, but exposed his true thoughts, with a slightly curved corner of his mouth, Ninomiya Chizuru couldn't help but feel expectation, so he said seriously.

"Hahaha."

Found that she was using this statement again to cover up her true thoughts, Kurosawa Hikaru couldn't help but be amused by her.

"Don't laugh while eating."

Ninomiya Chizuru felt that he was laughing at her, and she felt a little embarrassed.

They continued their picnic amidst laughter and joy.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when they were full and satisfied. As they stayed on the shore, they chose to play in the water under the bright summer sun.

It was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that they stopped. Considering the three-hour journey, they began to pack up and prepare to go home.

"The painting is really good."

Ninomiya Chizuru helped to pack up the easel. She looked at the beautiful woman in the water in the painting and felt very emotional.

When something is given a special meaning, it will become particularly precious, and this painting in front of her is like this.

This painting records today's story.

She and Kurosawa Hikaru took a three-hour car ride from Tokyo to the Asura Stream in Nagano Prefecture to sketch together.

This experience is very precious and unforgettable.

"Do you like it?"

Kurosawa Hikaru packed the lunch box, wrapped it with a picnic cloth, walked to her side, and took another look at the painting.

"I like it very much."

Ninomiya Chizuru said frankly about this, and no longer pretended not to care.

This painting is beautiful and lifelike. At first glance, it is just like a photo, but looking at it carefully, she seems to be able to see Kurosawa Mitsuru who has poured his heart and soul into it outside the picture.

For others, this painting may only pay attention to her in the painting...but she knows the story of this painting very well.

"For you."

Seeing her looking at the painting, a little fascinated, Kurosawa Mitsuru said after a deep look.

"You want to give it to me? If you don't take it back, as..."

Ninomiya Chizuru was stunned when she heard this, and then turned her head to respond subconsciously, but she stopped embarrassedly before she finished speaking.

"For what? A memorial?"

Although she braked in time, Kurosawa Mitsuru could still guess what she wanted to say, looking at her with a smile in his eyes and teasing.

"For collection, don't painters collect their works?"

Ninomiya Chizuru felt like she was being manipulated by him. She calmed down, tied her hair, and said calmly.

"I don't need it to commemorate anything, and I don't plan to collect it."

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't tease her anymore, but looked at the painting again and said seriously.

"Why? Because it's not good enough?"

Hearing this, Ninomiya Chizuru felt a little uncomfortable.

This painting is of great significance to her, but Kurosawa Hikaru doesn't need it.

"Because in the process of painting, this scene has been engraved in my mind and I will never forget it. I hope you can collect it more than me."

Kurosawa Hikaru turned his head to look at her and smiled when he noticed her dissatisfaction.

His smile was not that kind of brilliant smile, but a gentle and kind smile that came out naturally.

Looking at his handsome face and this beautiful smile, Ninomiya Chizuru, who was a little unhappy, was immediately amazed and a little stunned.

At this moment, he was so handsome, so handsome that it was fascinating and irresistible.

"I will never forget it."

With these words echoing in her ears, Ninomiya Chizuru looked at the landscape portrait again, and her heart was deeply touched.
