Tennis: Bind Longma at the beginning, double the return

Chapter 18: Heading to Sakura

As night falls, the air becomes cooler.

The leaves made a rustling sound in the cold wind.

"Have you decided to go to Sakura?"

On the park rooftop, Lin Nan and Ralph were leaning on the railing and chatting.

After dinner, Lin Nan saw that Ralph still had something to say, so he asked Longma to go home first.

"Ah."

Lin Nan nodded.

Sakura is the starting point of the plot. Even though there is still some time before the plot begins, it does not prevent him from going to see other characters in the plot.

"Actually, I came to you this time to invite you to join the Lighthouse Nation U17."

Ralph's tone went from nonchalant to calm.

“The Lighthouse Nation U17 contacted me, not just to invite me to join the U17, but also for another thing.”

Another thing?

Lin Nan didn't interrupt, but just looked at Ralph in confusion.

In fact, in the original U17, the Lighthouse Country team should be the only team whose previous record was not introduced.

Whether it is the Sakura team or the German team, they will more or less mention some of the plots before the French World Cup, but the Lighthouse Country team does not.

Instead, it was Ralph's generation that became the backbone of the Lighthouse National Team U17.

It even extended all the way to the World Cup in Australia.

Ralph continued: "Due to the fact that the results have been in the middle and lower reaches for many years, the Lighthouse National Tennis Association decided to rebuild the U17 and found me."

"Hopefully I'll find twenty during the year."

"Normally they should have approached you first, but because you are a Daxia national and have a permanent residence permit for Sakura and Sakura, they decided to let me approach you."

Having said this, Ralph paused and looked at Lin Nan seriously.

"Nan, with your strength, there is no way you can be rivaled by anyone of your age in Lighthouse Country. Come with me to join Lighthouse Country U17 and rebuild the team. I can give you the position of team leader and captain, and then we can compete together in the U17 World Cup in France in a year!"

The World Cup in France?

Lin Nan's mind flashed through the original work's description of the French World Cup.

Medanore, Borg, Camus, and that group of monster seniors who are one grade higher than him.

It would be a lie to say that I don’t yearn for it.

He has also considered which country's U17 team he would like to play for in the future.

Sakura is not considered.

Bactria, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, and the Lighthouse Country were all within his consideration.

"I can't give you an answer now."

"Next year, before the French World Cup qualifiers, I will give you an answer."

If possible, Lin Nan would like to visit Daxia.

He had no understanding of the tennis environment in this world and didn't know whether it was suitable as the starting point for the World Cup.

So he wanted to go to Daxia to find out more before making a decision.

"Okay, before you reply, I will select the new generation of geniuses from the Lighthouse Country and wait for you to come back!"

Ralph was not disappointed.

At least this answer is much better than rejection.

"Don't let anyone defeat you in Sakura. You can only lose to me. Remember to contact me when you return to Lighthouse Country!"

"Don't become weak anymore!"

Lin Nan and the other man beat each other's chests and said goodbye.

Under the night light, the two men left in different directions, and the only sound left on the rooftop was the rustling of leaves.

......

......

The next morning.

Under Longma's gaze.

Nanjiro and Lin Nan walked into the airport.

While checking his ticket, Lin Nan looked at a load-bearing column thoughtfully, then checked his ticket and entered the waiting area.

Until the plane stabilizes in the clouds.

Lin Nan asked, "Old man, Long Ya came just now, right?"

"Otherwise, how can I leave with peace of mind?"

"That's good."

Since it was Nanjiro who arranged it, Lin Nan didn't ask any more questions.

Although the old man is usually not very serious, he is still trustworthy when it comes to serious matters.

"Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements. Do you know anything about Sakura Junior High School?"

As he spoke, Nanjiro raised his hand and said to the stewardess: "A glass of sake~"

"Okay BOSS."

"What do you want, Master?"

"Pure milk."

"Hold on."

Wait for the flight attendant to leave.

Lin Nan looked at the clouds outside the window and said calmly, "I think you have made some arrangements, old man."

"If you don't have a particular school you want to go to, then go to Seigaku. That's also my alma mater. Sakura Junior High School has a national season competition. See if you can lead the team into the national competition. I couldn't lead the team to win the national championship back then!"

Lin Nan was not surprised by Echizen Nanjiro's decision.

In the original novel, Ryoma was also arranged by him to enter Qingxue.

It was inevitable that I would be arranged to enter Qingxue.

"Okay, I'll try." Lin Nan responded calmly.

Seeing Lin Nan's calm expression, Nanjiro said with a malicious look: "The national competition is a team competition. It won't make much difference if you are strong alone."

"..."

According to the plot line, Qingxue now should be the worst.

The only powerful guy who can be named is probably 'Yamato Yudai', and he couldn't even get into the first army in the original work.

Tezuka and others will not enter Seigaku until next year.

To lead such a bad team into the national competition and win the championship is harder than standing upside down and shitting without going into your mouth.

More than ten hours later.

The plane landed smoothly at Tokyo Airport.

Lin Nan and Nanjiro dragged four suitcases and returned home in a mighty manner.

"Xiao Nan, uncle?"

When I opened the door, I saw Nanako Echizen cleaning the yard.

"Sister, long time no see."

Lin Nan smiled.

To be honest, Nanako is much prettier than she looks in the anime, and she has a killer body.

Don't be fooled by the fact that she is just a high school student. She has a curvy figure and the magnificence hidden under her apron cannot be concealed.

"Konan is getting more and more handsome~" Nanako smiled softly, her cheeks slightly red.

Even though Lin Nan is only 13 years old, due to the system, his height is already 170cm, taller than Nanako.

He looks extremely handsome.

Even though he is her younger brother, it doesn't stop Nanako from looking at handsome guys.

As the saying goes, the closer you are to the water, the better... ahem!

"Nanako, are you hot?"

Nanjiro seemed to have noticed something and had a smirk on his face.

"No...no."

Nanako lowered her head in embarrassment.

Lin Nan didn't have too many thoughts, but asked: "Sister, where is Lunzi's mother?"

"Knowing that you will be back today, Auntie is preparing dinner in the kitchen."

"it is good!"

As she dragged her luggage into the house, Echizen Rinko, who had just come out to serve the dishes, immediately softened her expression.

"Xiao Nan, come and let mom see!"

Ever since Lin Nan was brought home by Nanjiro.

Echizen Rinko treats Lin Nan as her own son, and sometimes even treats him better than Ryoma.

Compared to her younger son who likes to show off, Lin Nan, who is both good in character and study, mature and steady, and has a stunning appearance, is more popular with her.

"Godmother, I will be studying at Sakura, and I will see you every day from now on."

Looking at Echizen Rinko who circled around him three times, Lin Nan had a face that did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"I just want to see what happened to my baby son~"

There were faint tears in Echizen Junko's eyes, but she soon turned serious and pointed at a wretched old man behind her and said, "Hey, put the luggage in the room."

"Okay~"
