Nakahara studies the figures one last time before reaching for his phone. He dials Mihara Kazuhiro without hesitation, and the call connects quickly.
"Mihara-san," Nakahara says evenly. "I've reviewed the sponsorship structure. I think we need to adjust a few points."
A brief pause on the other end, then a polite reply.
[Of course. We are open to revisions anytime. If you are available, please visit our office. It would be easier to go through the structure in person.]
Nakahara glances at the clock. "I can come now," he says. "We'll be there before noon."
[That works perfectly. Let's set it for early afternoon. We'll prepare the meeting room.]
Nakahara ends the call, and then looks at Kurogane.
"We're going to Atsugi," he says simply. "You wanted forty-five million. Why don't you tell them yourself?"
There is no challenge in his tone, only expectation.
Kurogane inclines his head. "Understood."
