Chapter 396: Miki Baiyu's super special move

Chapter 396: Miki Baiyu's super special move

Neon, there is a sentence "The moonlight tonight is so beautiful", this sentence alone can replace the words "I like you".

Why is it so? This is because there is a story behind this sentence.

In fact, there are many words in this world that can replace confession.

For those who understand, it is a confession of spiritual connection.

And now, the name Adilina has become popular all over the country with the piano piece "Adilina by the Water" and its MV.

It was only at noon, young people in the streets and alleys heard this single, and also knew its story, as well as the official announcement at midnight.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

Early in the morning, in a house in Tokyo, a male high school student quickly ran down the stairs from upstairs and rushed into the kitchen.

"Mom, I want to learn piano."

"Why do you suddenly want to learn piano? I always wanted to teach you before, but you refused."

The young woman who was making lunch was a little surprised to hear this.

"I'll play a song for you, and see if you can play it."

The male high school student picked up the phone and said.

"Adeline by the Water?"

"Do you know?"

"I love piano so much, how could I not know the new song of Master Zero Time... I can play this song, but there is no score yet, so I'll wait for others to transcribe it."

"Is Master Zero Time's level very good?"

"His level can no longer be described as good."

"How long will it take me to learn to play "Adeline by the Water?"

"If you just want to play it, be diligent, a few days will be enough... If you want to play well, if you have talent, half a year will be enough, and if you don't have talent, it will take one or two years."

"Can you play the same as Master Zero Time?"

"Even if it's the same score, different levels will give different feelings when playing."

Conversations like this happen from time to time in families all over Japan.

"Mom, I want to learn piano."

"Dad, sign me up for a piano class."

"Boss, I want to learn "Adeline by the Water", can you teach me?"

In just one night, a romantic piano piece "Adeline by the Water" directly set off a wave of piano learning.

In fact, the previous "Croatian Rhapsody" and "Flight of the Bumblebee" have caused a similar craze.

Young people like cool and handsome things, and the two songs played by Zero Time are gorgeous and dazzling.

But compared to coolness, what is more attractive to young people is the opposite sex.

Adolescent boys, in a colorful campus full of opposite sexes, even if they hide well and don't let others know, they know which female classmate is hidden deep in their hearts.

Perhaps people learning piano does not directly bring direct benefits to Zero Time.

But such obvious influence has directly entered the vision of major brands.

"Hello, is this Zero Time Office?"

"This is Zero Time Office."

"Hello, I am the operations director of Yodobashi. I want to play the song "Adelina by the Water" as background music in Yodobashi shopping malls across the country. I wonder if we can meet to discuss cooperation in detail?"

Igarashi Runa was sitting in the office, but the phone had been ringing since morning.

There were so many calls like this that she could not count them. She could only take a pen and paper and write down the direction of the brand and cooperation project, make a judgment in a short time, and then decide the time to meet and discuss in detail.

…

In the evening, the Japanese-style dining room of the Chasing Wind Dojo.

“Brother Kurosawa, many people called me.”

Sato Shinichi knelt at the small table, letting the woman next to him pour tea, and said calmly.

“Is brother busy today?”

Take off the archery hakama, change back to private clothes, Kurosawa Mitsuru, who is already full and full, is a little surprised.

“The people who called me today are the six major mainstream media. They all know that I am related to the Zero Hour Agency. They called me and want to cooperate with you through me.”

Sato Shinichi shook his head and explained.

Maybe he is an old antique and does not understand Western music very well, but Zero Hour made a big news last night, and it is hard not to know.

The super nice romantic single "Adeline by the Water" has attracted countless people at first listen.

The key is the official announcement of the relationship. The phrase "My Adeline" and the mutual achievement became popular on the Internet in less than a day.

"If there is anything, please speak up. No matter how busy I am, I will make time."

Realizing this, Kurosawa Hikaru said without hesitation.

If it is Brother Shinichi who speaks up, he is willing to help even if there are some troubles.

Let's not talk about the relationship of friendship, Brother Shinichi has helped him in too many places.

Especially as a big backer, a phone call directly prevented reporters from major mainstream media from harassing the Zero Hour Agency.

If there is any good news, it will be publicized, and as for negative news, it will not be released at will.

Although there is no scandal in the Zero Hour Agency, Brother Shinichi has helped him a lot in various matters.

"It's okay, we don't owe them many favors. Unless I think it's suitable, I won't cause you any trouble... If you specifically set aside time to do work with them, you might as well come to me for a few meals, bro. Half of my feet are already in the ground, and I don’t know how many more meals I can have with you.”

Seeing his unhesitating attitude, Sato Shinichi immediately became happy.

"Brother, I'm still going strong. It won't be a problem to live for another fifty years. Don't say such unlucky words."

Kurosawa frowned and glared at him.

"I am already seventy-four years old. If I live another fifty years, that would be too much."

Sato Shinichi laughed when he saw that he was still angry.

"Do you have any plans regarding archery recently?"

Finding that he was still smiling, Kurosawa was speechless and could only change the topic.

"Kyudo only has a few big events a year. On weekdays, the archers are practicing...Do you have time to participate in the small events?"

"Brother, do you think it's necessary?"

"No, you became famous in one battle, and now you are still at the top of your game. If you want to go to the next level, you can only do it at a competition-level event."

"Then when will the next big competition-level event be?"

"Do you really want to participate in the competition?" Sato Shinichi raised his eyebrows, put his hands in his sleeves, and smiled brightly.

He could feel that Brother Kurosawa seemed to be very anxious to carry out kyudo-related activities.

I obviously didn't come to practice archery before, but I came to the dojo once a week for the sake of women, not for archery at all.

"Because I want to perform better and make Mr. Zhenlong more satisfied. I want to have more privileges and can take the future to many places."

Kurosawa nodded slightly and affirmed.

He enjoys the feeling of being with the future. Because of this, he wants to take the future to more places.

"There are two types of student competitions, one is the championship, and the other is the throne competition... The national college archery competition you participated in before is the national championship, which is usually held in mid-August. The other one is the throne competition. Each school needs to achieve excellent results in the championship to be eligible to participate.”

Hearing this reason, Sato Shinichi rolled his eyes. It was for women again, but he still explained it to him.

"Game of Thrones?"

Kurosawa Hikaru was thoughtful, he had a vague impression of this name.

A championship is essentially a series of finals between the winners of different regions or competition groups.

In the Throne Tournament, when he competed at the Budokan before, Ohara Makoto, who was defeated by him, seemed to have won the Throne Tournament.

"The Throne Tournament will be held in late October. With your strength, you have no rivals in the Neon Kyudo world. Participating in this kind of competition is considered overqualified. But your age is there and your resume is still shallow. Go to the Throne Tournament first and become the king. "

Sato Shinichi nodded slightly and explained.

"We still have to wait until late October, which is quite a long time."

"Kyudo is a lifelong practice that emphasizes self-cultivation. Rather than fighting with others, it is mainly about fighting yourself. Because of this, the number and frequency of archery competitions are much less than other sports."

"indeed."

"During this period, I will discuss with my old friends to organize an all-neon archery professional competition."

"Do we need to organize it specifically? Don't there be any special competitions for professional players in the archery world?"

"Of course there are small and medium-sized competitions, but there are no competitions that can be called major competitions."

"Why?"

"There was a competition back then, but it was later abolished by a group of losers who were not good at their skills and didn't seek to improve."

"waste?"

"Unlike student archers who are simply enjoying their youth, in order to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for learning archery, various large and small competitions are emerging one after another. Professional players have to make a living in this industry, and many old guys who run dojos are worried about their performance on the field. It was not good and it affected my image in front of the students, so I joined together to abstain from the competition.”

"Could it be that you were too strong and beat them until they retired?"

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't expect that there would be such a story back then, and he smiled after thinking about it.

"Do you think I am invincible? The players competing with me, and the only tenth-dan Ogasawara in the kyudo world today... By the way, if you want to become the leader of kyudo, you have to step on their heads to reach the top. Find a way for you to have a fight with Ogasawara-ryu."

Sato Shinichi was amused by him, laughed and cursed, then suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up and he said.

"A duel with Ogasawara Judan?"

Kurosawa Hikaru was amused when he saw his mean smile, and suddenly became interested.

For this veteran who is the highest rank in the archery world, he has heard of Ogasawara's reputation a long time ago.

But the actual strength of this tenth-level person is unknown and has not been seen yet.

"Of course not. That old guy is ten years older than me and has already aged a long time. And he has a high position of power. No matter how hard I set up a situation, he will never be able to challenge you to a duel."

"That would be boring."

"Although you can't fight against him, you can fight against the strongest descendant of the Ogasawara style."

"oh?"

"The second son of Ogasawara 10th Dan, Ogasawara Erhu, 8th Dan Kyudo, 42 years old this year, known as the strongest archer in recent times. His strength is not far behind his father's heyday, he should make you seriously compete. "

Sato Shinichi nodded slightly and introduced him.

"I'll give you a hard time about archery matters."

Realizing that there was such a person in archery, Kurosawa Hikaru did not ask any more questions.

"What kind of trouble is this? If you can step on Ogasawara, I will wake up with laughter in my sleep."

Thinking of what kind of sparks would be created by such a duel, Sato Shinichi immediately became excited.

Nowadays, because he is old and can't pull the bow, he may not be able to compare with this little thing in terms of archery, but he has confidence in brother Kurosawa.

"By the way, I plan to take Mirai to the beach next Sunday."

Kurosawa Hikaru saw that he was so happy and felt that the time was almost right, so he also spoke.

Tonight he specially stayed for dinner, not only to chat with his brother, but also for business.

"Go to the beach?"

Sato Shinichi, who was originally grinning, glanced at him when he heard this.

...

At 8:30 in the evening, a luxury car stopped at the gate of the apartment.

"Brother Shinichi, see you next time."

After getting off the car, Kurosawa Hikaru turned around and waved gently.

"See you next time."

Sato Shinichi nodded and waved goodbye to him.

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't greet him, but turned around and walked into the apartment. After all, he had been chatting with Shinichi for a long time since 5pm when Mirai left the dojo.

"How should I reply?"

As he walked into the apartment and took the elevator, Kurosawa Hikaru took out his mobile phone from his pocket and muttered to himself with a headache.

Today was an activity at the dojo, and his mobile phone was placed in the locker room most of the time, not with him.

Maybe he changed back to his private clothes before finishing his meal, but he still had to chat with Shinichi, so he had no time to look at his phone.

In short, he didn't answer anyone's calls or reply to anyone's messages today.

This naturally included junior Miki.

Since he received the message at midnight yesterday, he has not replied until now... What's more, at noon, in order to let Mirai give advice, he is still in the state of having read but not replied.

"Ding."

The elevator quickly arrived at the corresponding floor. With a crisp sound, Kurosawa Hikaru walked out of the elevator, woke up the phone screen, and read the message.

Yuki usually sends him messages to report her personal schedule. She does yoga, fitness, and reads until 3pm in the morning. She goes to a cafe with Lan for dessert at 4pm and goes home for dinner at 6pm.

Yuta Miyazaki chatted with him for more than half an hour about the matter between Lingshi and Ninomiya Chizuru at midnight yesterday. After waking up, he also sent him more than a dozen messages.

There are also many messages from junior Miki. Since noon, there have been 4 new messages.

"Senior Kurosawa, are you busy?"

"I won't take up too much of your time. I just want to meet you and say a few words."

"I know you have a girlfriend, but there shouldn't be any problem replying to the message?"

"Are you worried that they will be jealous? Or do they hate me?"

"They... really know?" After reading these new messages, Kurosawa Hikaru was not very surprised.

It is unrealistic to hide this from junior Miki.

She knew that he was Lingshi and that his girlfriend was Ichinose Yuki, but he publicly announced that his girlfriend was Ninomiya Chizuru.

Anyone with a discerning eye who knows these things can see the clues.

As for hating her, that's impossible... Miki Baiyu is so beautiful and has a soft personality. As long as he is a normal man, he can't hate her.

People are very familiar with the way home.

Maybe you can't say that you can walk home with your eyes closed, but the distance from the elevator to the door is so short that you can be familiar with it even if you are playing with your phone or thinking about problems.

When he returned to the door, Kurosawa Hikaru reached into his pocket with his other hand, took out the key, and inserted it into the door lock.

"Kurosawa Senior."

But at this moment, a weak voice sounded.

Kurosawa Hikaru, who was about to open the door, subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and saw a white figure standing next to him.

It was a girl with long white hair like a waterfall, fair skin, and a weak and slender body wrapped in a white dress. Her facial features were beautiful and delicate, and her pair of light blue eyes were bright and crystal.

She just stood there, but it seemed like a landscape painting, making this ordinary corridor, which can be seen everywhere, shine.

"?"

Seeing this face, it was Miki Baiyu. Kurosawa Guang, who was still thinking about how to reply, suddenly widened his eyes.

He was really dumbfounded. He never expected that this junior sister would appear at the door of his house.

Could it be that it was another chance encounter... But even if they were destined to meet, they couldn't meet like this, right?

"Why are you here? What are you doing here?"

After being shocked, Kurosawa Guang asked.

"I want to see you, waiting for you here."

Miki Baiyu faced his gaze, twisted her hands together, and was a little at a loss.

Although she was guarding at the door of her house, she knew that she might meet him, but she was still very nervous when she really met him.

What she never expected was that she was so old, standing at the door, but Senior Kurosawa didn't see her at the first time, which made her expect the situation all messed up.

"Is that so..."

Kurosawa Guang nodded in surprise.

He had originally thought about the possibility that her friend lived next door, but that was ultimately unrealistic.

An encounter is when two people meet each other unexpectedly at a certain place and time.

If one party takes the initiative to look for the other party, it is not a chance encounter.

"Why don't you send me a message in advance, saying that you are waiting for me at my door. If I don't go home today, then you will wait in vain, right?"

Realizing the situation, Kurosawa Hikaru reacted and couldn't help asking.

Although one party takes the initiative to look for the other party, the chance of seeing each other is not small... but without prior contact, it is still very likely to miss.

"I'm afraid that if I tell you, you won't go home."

Miki Baiyu's hands kept opening and closing, whispering.

Admittedly, Miss Ichinose told her this morning that Senior Kurosawa may not hate her, but it is a fact that he is avoiding her.

She can indeed send a message to Senior Kurosawa to tell her that she is waiting for her at his door.

But if she does this, if Senior Kurosawa really intends to avoid her, she may not see him at all.

She didn't dare to gamble, so she could only use the dumbest method, waiting.

"Why don't I go home if you say so?"

Kurosawa Hikaru was really confused when he saw her weak look.

"I told you, will you go home too?"

Hearing this, Sanmu Baiyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly looked up at him with some surprise.

"Of course I will."

Kurosawa Mitsuru nodded as a matter of course, and when he met her surprised eyes, he suddenly felt something strange.

I always feel that the conversation just now, coupled with this surprised expression...Sanmu Baiyu is like a young wife who has suffered a lot of grievances, and he is a bad man who likes to spend money outside and rarely goes home.

He just goes home, and the young wife is very happy.

But the fact is not like this at all. He and Sanmu Baiyu are not husband and wife, and they are not even lovers. At most, they are classmates, but not friends.

"Oh oh."

Finding that he would not deliberately avoid her and not go home because of her message, Sanmu Baiyu couldn't help but feel happy, and felt a sense of joy.

"You sent me a message saying that you want to see me and say a few words...what do you want to say?"

Because the situation is very special, Kurosawa Mitsuru decided to sort things out and start with the business.

To be honest, he was not very clear about why Miki Baiyu wanted to ask him out.

In fact, Miki Baiyu was dangerous in many ways.

He knew that he was Zero Time, and he also knew that he was two-timing... If Miki Baiyu had a little more sinister intention and made things difficult for him and spread these things, it would definitely bring him a lot of trouble.

"Senior Kurosawa, is Teacher Ninomiya really Adeline of Zero Time?"

Speaking of this, Miki Baiyu raised his head and asked.

"The official announcement said so, of course it is true."

Her question was very implicit, and only those who understood would understand, and Kurosawa Hikaru said affirmatively.

"Is Miss Ichinose your girlfriend?"

Miki Baiyu asked again.

"Yes."

Kurosawa Hikaru nodded frankly, wanting to see what tricks she would come up with.

"Senior Kurosawa."

After getting his recognition face to face, Miki Baiyu took a deep breath, her small and delicate and thin body tensed, and said seriously.

"What's wrong?"

Because she suddenly became serious, Kurosawa Hikaru was influenced by her, stood up straight, and his body tensed up a little, taking it seriously.

"Can I be your third girlfriend?"

Miki Baiyu's beautiful light blue eyes reflected his handsome face. He mustered up the courage to express his thoughts that he couldn't convey through the phone.

"???"

As soon as this was said, Kurosawa Hikaru was stunned and looked at her in amazement.

Although he was waiting for her to make a move, this move was too fierce, right? It was simply a killer move.

He knew Miki Baiyu's personality. He was very honest with himself. He knew what he wanted and didn't want. He would not follow the crowd, and he had no idea of ​​fitting in. Instead, he was independent.

But even if he was independent, this was too unique, right?

"I like you, I want to be with you."

Looked at by his unbelievable eyes, Miki Baiyu's little face was very hot and embarrassed, but he still mustered up the courage to speak.

This was the first time she confessed to someone since she was born.

She had never thought that she would have a day to confess to a boy.

After all, she had been like a princess since she was a child, and was adored by everyone around her... Countless boys had confessed to her.

But she knew very well how much she liked Kurosawa-senpai, and how excited she would be just to see him.

And because she appeared too late in the order, she felt unwilling many nights.

It was really painful to know that she loved him very much, but she couldn't get him.

That's why, when the opportunity came, she didn't hesitate or retreat.
