"Hello, are you Uesugi-sama?"
Hanamaru Hanabi quickly hid behind Uesugi Sakura to avoid the sudden cameras that emerged from the corner of the venue.
—Although it was just one camera, and two people who seemed to have a senior-junior relationship.
"What's up?"
The senior had a work badge hanging on their chest, and the young female assistant beside them was holding a camera.
Their identity might as well have "journalist" written on their face.
"There's a rumor that Uesugi-sama's experience in Kyudo is less than two months, and we're here to verify the facts."
It seemed they were specifically looking for him.
"Do you believe in such hearsay?"
The senior journalist wasn't surprised by his answer, "According to our paper's inquiries, the Shirooka Affiliated Middle School that Uesugi-sama attended did not have a Kyudo Club."
Uesugi Sakura turned and walked away.
They obviously came prepared, and the best way to handle this situation was to ignore them.
