That gaze... Rice Shower, you're watching me, aren't you?
Bourbon sensed Rice Shower's gaze and instinctively began looking for her.
But this was a press conference. Not only was every seat taken, the surrounding area was packed with people too.
For the moment, she couldn't pinpoint where Rice Shower was.

Zhou Yuang called her softly, drawing her searching gaze back to him.
"Trainer?"
"Don't look elsewhere. Focus on what you're doing."
"...Yes."
Hearing her trainer's instruction, Bourbon obeyed.
Just as when she'd heard the question, Zhou Yuang would make the plan, and she would carry it out.

Whether Rice Shower was here in person or watching the livestream, she had to be curious about how Bourbon saw her, right?

[Supersonic B70]: You jerk!
[Rice Cake Fatty]: That's enough,
