[Xinwangwang] On that distant mountain

At night, Maori, who planned to go to bed earlier to overcome the jet lag, packed up his things and prepared to go back to the room to wash up.

He passed the same tennis court—the one he had seen a family of three training for before going on an overseas expedition.Some kind of special force made him turn his head again, and it was the same person as a month ago that came into view.

...Senior Tokugawa is in special training again?

Thinking this way, Mao Li quickly overturned his own idea, because the person standing opposite the court was no longer a ghost-senpai, and the figure of Irie-senpai on the side of the court was no longer there.Standing opposite Tokugawa-senpai was a short boy wearing a white hat.

who is coming?

Why do you feel a little familiar?

Thinking of this, Maori reflexively turned his eyes slightly sideways.

And in the same shaded corner next to the same vending machine, the same figure stood there in the same pose.

Molly was taken aback again.

...Why did you see Senior Byodoin again?

He thought that the seniors of Byodoin would be so excited during the day...it would calm down a little at night.

Maori thought so, looked left and right, gritted his teeth and climbed up the same tree.

Ahem, my intuition tells him... there will be a good show to watch.

Maori squatted on the tree to watch the special training of Tokugawa and the boy in the hat.

After looking at it for a while, Maori finally remembered why he found that kid familiar - isn't that the first-year selection of Qingxue?The kid who was brewed by Yukimura with Miewugan sauce in the national competition and finally opened it seamlessly but still lost.It seems to have grown a little taller, but it still looks the same as it did in the national competition.

... Even if the strength is improving, it is too fast, right? !

five balls...

Wait, what about ten balls? !

If you started training this way of multi-ball after entering the U17, can you already have ten goals by now?

Maori inexplicably felt that there was some kind of halo on the head of the boy in the hat.

Then he saw the Byodoin Temple in the corner move.

The tall and muscular man walked out from the backlit corner holding the racket, and walked step by step to the top of the steps on the side of the court.

At this time, the two people on the court were packing their things, and Tokugawa threw a can of drink from the tennis bag to Echizen.

Maori was confused.

Byodoin seemed to snort (Mori didn't hear the sound anyway, but he guessed Byodoin had a little reaction), took a step, threw the tennis ball, raised his arm, and swung the racket——

Snapped!

this ball...

Aiming at Echizen's head? !

Wait, Byodoin is standing behind Echizen, if it gets hit on the back of the head...

Mao Li's eyes dazzled, and he felt his heart was about to jump - the consequences of being hit by the ball from Byodoin Temple were simply unimaginable!

About to hit? !

Senior Tokugawa? !

A muffled sound.

Tokugawa, who jumped in the air and was hit, had a pained look on his face, and he was carried by the tennis ball for a short distance in the air.The tennis ball hit him right on top of him, and I couldn't see where it hit.If the position is not good... you will suffer internal injuries!

But before he hit the ground, the second ball came again.

Echizen barely avoided the ball, but was still carried by the force of the ball and fell to the ground.

The tennis ball smashed into the stone wall behind them, cracking it.

Hu, Hu, Hu.

For a while, the sound of panting overwhelmed the sound of the wind, Mouri took a deep breath, and saw that Echizen and Tokugawa only had the strength to half kneel after landing, and could not stand up.

But the Court of Equality obviously did not intend to let them go.

"Destroy it..."

Byodoin said so, and hit the third ball.

unavoidable.

Mao Li almost jumped off the tree, he clenched the branch beside him, and watched the tennis ball about to hit Guo Yisheng in a flash... No!That black cloak? !

It's not the black cloak, it's Echizen Ryuya.

The boy wearing a strange black hooded sweater who followed them back to the country suddenly appeared in front of the two people in the arena.

Maori could only see the movement of his swing vaguely, and in a blink of an eye, the tennis ball flew back with a light tail.

Snapped!

The ball landed on Byodoin's outstretched hand.

Maori could barely see the ugly look on Byodoin's face.

...It hurts to catch the ball with your hands.

Byodoin looked at Echizen Ryuya coldly at the spot, took back the tennis ball, turned and left.

Only then did Maori heave a sigh of relief, and he let go of his hand and found that the branches rubbed against his hand with too much force just now, and it hurt a little.

Speaking of the name Echizen Ryuya...

Is that first year named Echizen Ryoma?

Are the two related?

It wasn't until the three of them had left that Maori jumped off the tree cautiously. His numb feet made him limped back to the room while gasping for air.

On the way, I met Daqu who was returning from a bath, and was stared at by Daqu with strange eyes for a few seconds.

"Maori, are you... constipated?"

"Senior said that is too much!"

Daqu shrugged.

When Maori returned to the room, he found that there was no one in the room. He sat for a while and planned to rest after washing, but his mind kept turning about what he saw at night.He walked around the room twice, clicked his tongue and took water and towels to the gym.

As expected, Ochi was inside.

When the door was pushed open, the tall boy was smoothing out his long bangs and getting off the treadmill.

Maori walked over and handed him towels and water.

Yue Zhi took it, wiped his bangs with a towel first, and then folded the towel and put it on the small table in the resting place next to the gym.He sat down on the small sofa and carefully checked his racket: "Why are you here? Didn't you say you want to rest early?"

"Well, I saw something I shouldn't have seen." Maori stood there, took two steps and turned on the treadmill again: he felt that he wanted to run for a while to calm down.

Yue Zhi heard the sound of the treadmill running, turned around and asked in surprise, "What?"

Maori jogged and said, "I passed by the outdoor tennis court at night and stopped to take a look when I saw Tokugawa-senpai and Echizen Ryoma playing... Well, Moonlight-san, do you remember who Echizen Ryoma is?"

"That Qingxue Guosheng? The one who has practiced seamlessly?" Yuezhi thought for a while.

Mao Li continued to complain: "Yeah, that little guy. I saw him and Tokugawa-senpai fight with five balls. It looked very relaxed. It seems that there is no problem with ten balls."

"...It's really a creepy progress." Ochi sighed.

Mao Li sighed: "I knew his potential since he suddenly became perfect in national affairs. I was a little curious so I stayed and watched, and found that the seniors of Byodoin suddenly stood up... Oh, the last time I watched Senior Tokugawa's special training on the field, I found Senior Byodoin not too far away... Should I say it was a peek? But today Senior Byodoin came out suddenly, in front of Senior Tokugawa When I was packing and chatting with Echizen Ryoma, I suddenly hit Echizen Ryoma with a ball on the head. The angle of the hit from behind was aimed at the back of the head? Tokugawa-senpai jumped up and blocked it himself. It must have hit the stomach. I don’t know. There will be internal injuries. The seniors of Byodoin will continue to hit if they miss the hit..."

Molly stopped suddenly.

Yuezhi listened to half of the words and couldn't help frowning.

He took out a clean towel from his tennis bag and began to wipe the frame of the tennis racket: "Keep playing, and then?"

"Then... isn't the No.4 who came back with us called Echizen Ryuya? He suddenly appeared and hit back the tennis ball for them. Senior Byodoin turned around and left when he saw someone coming." Maori said confusedly, "So he What does this mean? Also, is Echizen Ryuya and Echizen Ryoma related by blood? The names are so similar."

Yuezhi was silent for a while.

"You don't have to wade in the muddy water in the future. If the Court of Equality finds out that you watched his excitement, I can't save you." He said in a deep voice.

Molly shrugged.

The speed of his treadmill is adjusted very slowly, which is a little faster than walking. At this speed, he can easily talk and run: "Speaking of which, tomorrow's opponents are not just junior high school students. Senior Tokugawa seems to be I plan to compete with Senior Byodoin in tomorrow's match. I got hit tonight, and it will probably affect the result of tomorrow's match."

He remembered that during his lunch break today, he took a nap under the tree in front of the library as usual, and met King Ni, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and said hello.

"Speaking of which, I always meet Xiao Renwang in the qualifying matches in the school. I don't know if he will be my opponent in tomorrow's match. It's annoying to always compete with Xiao Renwang." He started to mutter, "Probably not? He and Koyanagi have both got the badges of the Mutsu Brothers. Could it be that they will play again? If they meet, they have to be doubles...it's impossible to fight Yukimura again, right?"

Maori shook his head to reject this cruel imagination.

He turned his head: "By the way, Yueguang-san, according to the younger generation, the trace department in the middle of the Ice Empire..."

The more you know, the second you understand.

He put down the towel in his hand: "I'm not interested in him."

Mao Li smiled on the treadmill: "Don't be stubborn, Moonlight Sang Mingming usually reads information about the middle school."

After talking about it, Maori felt much better.He was sweating again, said hello, went to the bathhouse to take a bath before falling asleep.Before going to bed, I saw Yuezhi sitting at the desk writing questions as usual.

Half asleep and half awake, he seemed to hear the sound of the saxophone.

A little familiar.

He mumbled a few words of unknown meaning, turned around to face the wall and continued to sleep soundly.

On the other side, Ochi, who finished writing the test paper and was going to sleep: ...that guy Irie...does he have to play the saxophone even though he knows we're going to be jet-lagged? !

Holding the quilt tightly with both hands, Ochi, who was a little irritable, glanced at the sleeping Mori, sighed helplessly and lay down, covering his head with the quilt.

A few seconds later he opened it again.

Tsk, if you cover your head, the knees will be exposed... U17 is quite cold in late autumn.

So Irie Kanata, go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep!

Yuezhi lay on the bed straight with his eyes closed, expressionless, feeling so refreshed in his heart.

Maori got up the next morning, changed his clothes, ate breakfast, and made preparations. After that, he picked up the tennis bag and prepared to go to the center court for the agreed transposition match.

He passed by the infirmary, glanced casually but found a familiar head with curly hair.

...Senior Kaji? !

Couldn't help but stop, Maori was a little hesitant to go in and have a look.

"What's the matter?" Ochi who was walking not far behind him happened to catch up with two steps.He followed Maori's gaze to the infirmary, and found that Jiazhi was lying in it after a long time.Raising his hand to press Mao Li's little curly hair, Yue Zhi said lightly: "Let's go, come and see him after the game. Don't disturb his rest."

"But Moonlight-san..."

"Ok?"

Mao Li continued to walk forward with the strength of Yuezhi, frowning as he walked: "Why is Senior Kaji in the infirmary? Isn't there a competition today?"

Yuezhi was silent for a while.

"He played a game with ghosts this morning."

"……what?!"

"I originally thought that the ghost would be with the group of middle school students, but it turned out that he planned to return to the camp of the first army to accept the challenge." Yue Zhi said in a cold tone, "This has nothing to do with you. serious impact."

"But..." Maori still frowned.

Yuezhi looked at him helplessly: "If you're worried, come and see him after the match. Now the agreed time is coming up, don't you plan to lose without a fight?"

"Understood, senior." Maori bit his fingertips reluctantly, "Okay, I'll come and see Senior Kaji after the competition."

He will definitely bring the chef's special cotton candy to Senior Jiazhi.

The author has something to say:

Maori: I have learned the truth that Byodoin-senpai is an STK maniac!Will I be sacked by the seniors of Byodoin Temple? !

Yue Zhi: You careless little curly-haired junior, how dare you mess with Byodoin... The bad debts of those two people are completely recruited by others...

The next chapter, King Ren is online!

Write that doubles fight from a different angle!

And I probably don't have Black Byodoin and Tokugawa?

hhhh Although Byodoin has been destroyed by me.

I think that if Byodoin hadn't been free to watch Tokugawa's night training, it would not have caught Tokugawa and Echizen's "date" all at once.
