Chapter 191: The Summer Camp Ends
To avoid further incidents after the bear encounter, archery training ended earlier than scheduled that day.
The entire Archery Club, along with Coach Takigawa and Mafuyu, returned to the inn with hurried steps and a lingering tense atmosphere.
Upon arriving at the inn, Ren headed to the vending machine area near the lobby. He bought a cold can of yogurt, opening it with a soft hiss, and sipped its contents. The cool, sweet sensation calmed his mind.
As he enjoyed his drink, a pair of figures passed by, heading toward a corner of the inn. Ren glanced briefly, his eyes narrowing slightly. It was a couple with a noticeable age gap.
The woman was a tall, slender beauty with long black hair tied neatly with a white hairband. The man was middle-aged, balding at the crown, with a plump build.
They looked more like a father and daughter than lovers.
Thanks to his photographic memory, Ren instantly recognized them.
They were Kasumigaoka Utaha, a former renowned novelist now working in sales, and the fat man was the manager of the car showroom where Ren had bought his luxury car.
It had been a long time since that encounter, so it was natural that the couple had forgotten Ren, who had only interacted with them once during the car purchase.
As they walked, the manager boldly wrapped his arm around Utaha’s waist, his fingers pressing into her slim figure.
"..."
Utaha gave him a brief glance, showing no significant resistance, though a faint, unreadable expression crossed her face.
