Chapter 43 second quarter

Mochizuki Naomi has been well-known in the archery circle since she was a student.Although he has never won a championship, his results fluctuate less and he always ranks in the top. When she joined our company, the company's archery team was still quite active.There are not only a few more famous players, but also people who are often selected for the national team.I was also one of the team members. Eight years passed by in a hurry. Many things happened in between.As Naomi recounted in the video, the team once flourished because of her active performance.As she said, it was at its best.But after that, the team seemed to have passed its peak and began to go downhill.

With me as the leader, several players retreated from the front line, and players with no strength were always put on the top. In addition, a large company kept poaching capable players. From the perspective of the scale of the company, our original As a company that belongs to small and medium-sized enterprises, naturally there will be no more players wishing to join the team, and the results in the official competition will naturally not be much better.As a result, the company's annual allocation of funds has decreased year by year, which can also be said to be a kind of fate in this world.

Three years ago, including Naomi, there were only three players left.Before long, Naomi was the only one left.The company seems to have considered disbanding the team many times, and the reason why it can withstand this pressure is all because Naomi still has the possibility of participating in the Olympics.If she can compete in the Olympics, it will also have a great publicity effect for the company. A few days ago, the Olympic trials began.Not only the company has great expectations for her, but even Naomi herself has bet everything.She sacrificed the most perfect youth in human life.This is her last chance.

As a result, she made frequent mistakes in official competitions.The cause is completely irreversible.Similar things often happen in this kind of sports where the mental state affects the performance of the competition.For her, it just appeared on the most critical occasions. In the end, she also missed this last chance. "therefore--" The detective said, "So Mochizuki fell into despair and finally chose to die?" "I'm afraid it is... She has been in a slump since the trial match." "Isn't Mochizuki only 30 years old this year? By the time of the next Olympics, she will be 34. Although I don't know much about archery, she should still have a chance?"

The detective looked puzzled. "not like this." I said quietly, "For this time, she has worked so hard. It can be said that it is because she regards this as the last chance that she feels nervous. If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time—— So easy." "But there's no need to die because you can't compete in the Olympics... In short, I don't understand." "Perhaps. That's because you don't know how much sacrifice she has made for it, so you have such an idea." Hearing what I said, the detective seemed to be caught off guard.He stroked his chin and nodded slightly.

"Maybe." It didn't take long for the criminal police to stop pestering me endlessly.But then I have to explain the situation to the company.From a certain point of view, it is estimated that this matter will be more difficult. When I left the room, I stood at the door for a long time, my eyes darting across every corner of the room.With Naomi dead, it was clear that the team would be gone as well.Everything ended with her. Naomi's beloved bow is still hanging on the wall.After the trials, she never opened it again. A spider crawled gently across her bow, with yellow and black stripes on its back, about four or five centimeters long including the feet.I brushed it off with my hand, and the spider quickly climbed up the wall and escaped into the ventilation hole in the ceiling.
