"Kazuya, determine the next itinerary, if you can, I mean to arrange a press conference for you."

"Please, Kato, you're really thinking too much, it's beyond my expectations to be in the top three of the World Footballer of the Year this time, I'm just going to mix up a seat at a live awards ceremony, a press conference or something, you're putting me on the fire with such a high profile!"

"However, you're at least the first player in Asia to win this honor, so my personal advice is—"

"- Rejection and dismissal, unless you have already informed the media, but I don't think you would do such a thing without asking my opinion, so in fact, this time you are only asking symbolically, right?" Kazuya, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, looked depressed, "You know, I've always disliked dealing with the media, and I have a very bad impression of them. ”

"Okay, I got it." Kato nodded and replied meticulously.

Kazuya looked at Megumi Kato, who had the same serious expression as usual, and couldn't help frowning. To be honest, until now, he is still feeling incredulous about this girl finally becoming his agent.

Kazuya Aragaki, who had been touting that he would never become a professional footballer six years ago, did not choose to go to university after graduating from high school, but signed directly with Arsenal in the Premier League - which really surprised everyone. Almost all experts in China believe that although Aragaki players have high potential, they are still too eye-catching to land directly on the Premier League powerhouse Arsenal, and British Arsenal fans are even more worried about Mr. Wenger's reluctance to strengthen the forward line and go to the far east to scratch the lottery.

However, this signing, which almost everyone was not optimistic about, turned out to be a surprisingly good deal. After a season on loan, Kazuya Aragaki returned to Arsenal for the second season, and then broke out in the second half of the season to secure a regular position in the team. In his third season, he led the team to regain the Premier League trophy after an 11-year absence, and at this time, Kazuya Aragaki was only 21 years old. Three years later, at the age of 24, he is now making his first appearance at the FIFA World Footballer of the Year award in Zurich, after helping the team reach the Champions League final and the World Cup semi-finals with the Japanese national team.

However, for Kazuya himself, he was not surprised by these achievements - what really surprised him was that the agent next to him was actually Megumi Kato.

Three years ago, when Kato contacted him to announce that she was about to graduate from the Faculty of Economics at Hayao University and wanted to become his agent, Kazuya took it as a joke.

"If you graduate from the Faculty of Economics, you might have no problem working as a broker. But I'm very afraid of trouble, so I still hope that my agent can become my nutritionist and physiotherapist at the same time, when you can do this, when I will fire my current agent, let you be my agent. At that time, Kazuya jokingly replied to Megumi Kato.

――So, as you can imagine, Kazuya, who returned to China for vacation half a year ago, looked at Kato's expressionless expression when he showed his certificate to his nutritionist and physiotherapist.

Fortunately, Kato's proof is still genuine, and she runs in with herself very quickly.

Although he is unwilling, Kazuya still has to admit that Megumi Kato, who knows his relatives and friends very well, and even his interests and preferences, is more suitable to be his agent than the squinting middle-aged man who wants to sell himself at a higher price all day long.

――Besides, a beautiful agent is a bit eye-catching, isn't it?

Kazuya looked at Kato, who was wearing an office outfit, and sighed softly in his heart.

However, it has been six years since that relationship at that time! Even though Kato, who has worked with him for the past six months, has been adhering to the style of doing business and has not mentioned those things six years ago, when he looks at Kato's face, he still occasionally recalls the events of that time.

Occasionally, he would also remember what the person in front of him had said, "Just stand silently by your side", which makes him a little embarrassed now.

"The next question, Milan contacted me again, saying that they wanted you to put some pressure on the club and discuss the transfer fee again."

"Even though I've been a Milan fan since I was a child, I still can't do this kind of thing, didn't I say it, my highest statement is that I have no problem with going to Milan. However, the specific transfer fee still has to be negotiated with the club. ”

"Also, they said that if you agree to join, they will find a way to help Ayase's career in Milan gain a foothold." Kato hesitated for a moment and said.

"So whether those people are doing club management work or intelligence gathering work, tell them that my sister's strength is good enough that she can become the top model even without help, you don't have to worry about this, instead of thinking about helping Ayase across the border, it's better to negotiate the transfer fee, right?" Kazuya said subconsciously, but, after hesitating for a while, he still tapped his arm and added, "Well, let's ask how far they can help Ayase?" ”

"Kazuya, if you do this, Ayase will be unhappy!" Rarely, Kato frowned and expressed his private opinion.

"That kid, why didn't you think about me when I came to London three years ago? Gaining a foothold in the UK and now going to Italy to develop, what's wrong with me helping her? Kazuya shook his hand and replied casually.

"Well, then you will be responsible for the matter explained to Ayase at that time, and I will not be responsible for handling it, well, this should be something other than work." Kazuya could see Kato pursing his mouth as much as he could, as if he didn't want to let his smile show.

"If you want to laugh, you can laugh, I've reached this age, and I still value my smile so preciously, fortunately, Lun is also past the age where you have to make a game because of your smile, otherwise he would have to sigh in front of me again, saying that the pressure of working for me is too great, so that Kato-san has no smile."

"Well, then the next question."

"-Hey, Kato, you're deliberately ignoring me, aren't you?"

"Next question, about your autobiography—"

- Born at the age of 24, shouldn't this kind of thing be sold for another ten years? Besides, what does my autobiography write, when I was a child, I had an awkward relationship with Ying Lili, and then when I grew up, did I confess to Ying Lili? ”

"I discussed with the writer who agreed to write your autobiography, and she also read a few autobiographies of other players, saying that there is nothing wrong with writing an autobiography at the age of 24, and you don't need to explain how you grew up, you just need to write about how you feel about a few highlights of your football career since you were a child."

"So, wouldn't it be better to do this kind of thing in 10 years? At that time, I had more content to write, but now that I am in such a hurry, I don't have so much time for nostalgia! ”

"Well, anyway, the writer is already in Zurich now, and I think you can take the time to talk to her." Kato handed him a business card as if he hadn't noticed Kazuya's explanation at all.

"So, Megumi Kato, you're really a bit of a thing—" Kazuya grumbled as he took the business card, and then, a wonderful expression appeared on his face.

"Now, Kato, you did it on purpose, right?" His face changed slightly, and he put the business card in front of Kato.

"I think this guy is a good guy, huh? With experience in Europe, although she used to write novels, it's a good thing that she's willing to help write her autobiography now, and then she's getting closer-"

"--You said so many reasons, but you missed the most important one, her name is Kasumigaoka Shiha." Kazuya interrupted Kato, who was pretending, and said helplessly, "Forget it, if Shiyu Senpai comes to Zurich, whether you want to write an autobiography or not, you should always meet." ”

If Kato has basically been on business for half a year as Kazuya's agent, then what makes Kazuya crazy the most is that there are some "accidental" reservations. For example, two months ago, she helped Kazuya to follow a Japanese sports drink advertisement, and the partner during the filming turned out to be Kirino Takasaka. And when Kazuya roars at Kato to explain all this, all he can get is Kato's calm "it was just an accident" answer.

Of course, this time the so-called "autobiographical writing" is certainly not an accident, and Kato did not try to explain the problem with Kazuya, but Kazuya himself faced this situation and had to shake his head again and again to show that he was helpless.

"Then the agreement with Kasumigaoka-sensei is set for three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

"Wait a minute, isn't Ying Lili's plane at half past three? Won't it be too late? ”

"Don't worry, Ying Lili has just contacted me, saying that there was a little problem with the printing of the sketch, so she postponed the flight, and she will arrive in Zurich at about half past seven tomorrow night, which is more than enough."

"So isn't it just a winter i, isn't it okay for her not to be at the booth for this important event of mine? Just keep it in London and paint, why do you have to go back and do these things? ”

"I think it's probably because the weather in London is so bad that it's unbearable, right? So from the weather point of view, going to Milan is also a good choice. ”

"So how much benefit did Milan give you to speak for them all the time?"

"I'm just telling you what's really going on in your own heart."

"So you come to be this agent, well, it's not necessarily a good thing that the agent knows the player too well!" Kazuya looked at Kato aggressively for a while, but under the calm eyes of the other party, he still shook his head helplessly, "However, why is the information about Ying Lili's postponement of the flight notified to you, not to me?" ”

"Maybe it's more convenient to contact me, right? After all, my phone is on standby 24 hours a day, so you don't necessarily have to pay attention to incoming calls or emails at any time. ”

"Well, is there anything else?"

"There's one more thing that has nothing to do with work."

"Something not related to work?"

"In two hours, Ayase will be in Zurich, well, from London."

"Wait a minute," Kazuya's eyes widened, "She told me in the morning that there was a shooting schedule, so she might not be able to make it, right?" ”

"It seems that the job was canceled, so I hurriedly bought a plane ticket and came over."

Kazuya couldn't help but cover his head, Kato, who was now by his side, Shiyu, who had arrived in Zurich, Ayase, who was about to come, and Eiri, who would arrive tomorrow, suddenly remembered the fear that he was dominated by that Shura place six years ago.

"So, everybody has to go to the awards ceremony, right? There aren't so many locations, are they? He asked, gritting his teeth.

"Barely found a place for everyone, as Kazuya's agent, you still have to have this ability, isn't it?"

"Kato, this is what you planned, right? You started planning all this when you were my agent half a year ago, right? ”

By the way, Ying Li Li means that she won't be angry, but, on the other hand, if you get the first place, then you need to kiss her in front of the TV camera. Shouldn't that be difficult, right? For you who repeatedly gesture to your girlfriend when scoring a goal during a game. ”

Kazuya looked at Kato with a blank face. He could even imagine Ying Lili's somewhat angry but somewhat rightfully arrogant face, and he could also imagine the rather playful expression when Shi Yu saw him tomorrow. Of course, there is also Ayase's embarrassed but stubborn look when she sees him. Of course, there is also Kato's light appearance.

"Can you explain to the organizing committee that I'm not going to the award ceremony?" He said with some misery.
