[Flower card love] turned into a thousand winds

When Tai Yi sat in front of Xin, on the same level, he stared at Xin's eyes like the blue coast.

This is him looking so seriously at the boy in front of him after many years, this is the most important friend in his life and also the friend who confuses him the most.

The adhesive tape on the new face had become a little loose. Perhaps it was because of the three rounds of competition in the morning that he had exhausted his energy, and the sweat that flowed out wet his skin, making the adhesive tape less sticky.On the face where the scars can still be seen clearly, there is a smile like the warm winter sun. A just right smile won't make him hurt his wounds, but Taiyi is still sensitive to discover that in yesterday's small-scale fight In the middle, Xin probably injured his right shoulder.The evidence is that in the game just now, the crossman he is good at did not play to the level it should have.

Tai Yi stared at the new face silently, as if he could see through his clear and clean eyes what was going on in his heart.

'Taiyi, it's great to be able to play Kapai together again. '

Xin at that moment probably made such a heartfelt voice.

"Please advise."

After both saluted, Taiyi suddenly felt his fighting spirit was ignited.

Just as the round of [-] in West Japan started, a cloud of smoky gray began to fill the sky far away in Tokyo.Not long after, there was a torrential rain in the sky, and the noisy rain interrupted many conversations gathered outside. People who originally planned to enjoy their lunch break in the shade of the trees had to move indoors.

When Mahiru and Tamano both rushed to the Bingchuan Hall, Tamano's shoulders were already wet.They looked towards the crowded promenade, and many of them frowned, looking at the gray-black sky outside the floor-to-ceiling windows with a slightly disappointed expression.Then, at the corner not far away, they saw Ruize's third-year seniors who had come to hide from the rain.

Koma Ye and Nishida, who unfortunately lost to their opponents in the second and third rounds respectively and did not enter the afternoon game, were by Xiaozao's side. The expressions on their faces seemed a little unnatural, especially when Chihaya walked towards them with a wave. When they came, there was an obvious pause on the faces of the three people for a second.

From the point of view of Tamano, who is observant of people, they must have something to hide from Chihaya, and after thinking about it for a while, they can roughly judge that this matter probably has something to do with Shin Watani or Taichi Mashima who is far away in Kyoto.

"What's the matter?" Mahiru who was beside him noticed Tamano's slightly dignified expression.

He shook his head, then, with his wet arms, he clenched the palm of the girl beside him.

At the same time, in the player rest area on the second floor, the situation of the [-]th round of the celebrity qualifiers in the afternoon has become clear. There are two figures standing side by side in front of the window, looking at each other with no expression on the rain that keeps hitting the glass window. stains.

Hiroto felt that he hadn't devoted himself to doing something for a long time, including the game he wanted to ask Mahiru to go to the video game supermarket to play. In fact, he was just talking about his interest.What he likes the most, as expected, is that there are too many songs.

The old scar on the inside of his right arm made him feel a bit of pain inexplicably. It was obviously a wound that had been healed long ago, but it always disturbed his nerves in this irritating rainy day.He bit his teeth, trying desperately to forget that past, but the memory seemed to have a powerful reverse effect, imprinting a heavy mark deep in his mind.

It was also raining like this that day, and it hit the muddy flower bed next to the teaching building.At that time, Yuto had just entered the second year of middle school, and he was still a fledgling boy, ostentatiously walking around the campus with a guitar, and the dink shoes on his feet made a crackling sound, which made him feel extremely happy.The destination he was going to was the warehouse behind the teaching building, which was a temporary practice place for their band.A small five-person team, not well-known, but the relationship between everyone in the team is very strong.

Hiroto’s backpack is full of [-] singing cards. Although he was ridiculed in good faith when he promoted it to everyone in the group, after getting started, this sport quickly won everyone’s “it’s quite interesting.” evaluation of.Of course, after practice, the biggest role of singing cards is to play recreational games such as "drawing monks".

However, that day, when Hiroto opened the warehouse door enthusiastically, what appeared in front of him was not the group members who booed him in disdain, "Sudou, you're late again", but a group of big and three rough The scene where the hooligan is stepping on his companion's hand with a pointed leather shoe.He froze for a second, then without thinking, he dropped his backpack and rushed over.

The end was soon, and he met a fate similar to that of his companions.

Afterwards, when Hiroto's older brother, who always had a smile hidden in his face, leaned against the door of the ward and looked at him with pity, he suddenly cried.

Two of his ribs were broken and the pain was severe.

The murder weapon was a guitar.

At that time, the other party just picked up the things around him easily, and then threw them at Yuuto's thin body with inertia.He fell to the ground and didn't even have the strength to get up, and his ears were filled with filthy curses.He saw those people with the nose of the plane opened his backpack, and a hundred singing cards were thrown out one after another. They said "what is that" in a mocking voice, and then used their muddy leather shoes Recklessly trampled on cards full of false names.

At that moment, Hiroto's mind sank into a black hole, he completely forgot about his still injured body, and rushed towards those guys.

His right arm was torn open by a sharp blade, and the sticky blood was buried in memory along with his humiliation.

So whenever it rains after that, he can't help recalling that period of the past.Such cloudy weather was not a good omen for him, and he suddenly lost confidence in the afternoon game.

A pair of strong arms around him suddenly wrapped around his shoulders at this moment, Hiroto looked up, the man next to him still had that expression of concealing a knife in his smile, which made him feel terrified.

"If you want to use the excuse that the weather has affected your mood to lose the game later, I won't bypass you."

Sudeng Akto's tone sounded very joking, but only his younger brother who had been with him for more than ten years knew that the hand that was holding his shoulder tightly was definitely not an encouragement, but a threat.

The rain became much lighter than before, and on the extension line of the backs of the two men surnamed Sudou, their names appeared side by side on the battle table in the afternoon.

In the second half of the qualifiers, everyone was digging their own haze.

As if in conjunction with the heavy rain falling outside the window, the lightning that followed was reflected on the tatami, and Tokyo fell into a torrential downpour.

Chihaya was thinking calmly.The Sanzijue just sent out is her special card, and it is now placed in the lower right section of the enemy's formation, together with the adjacent friendly cards, it can be shot at the same time when attacking.But she had to be careful on her own side, she wasn't sure if her luck would always be this good.

"excuse me."

While many thoughts were constantly popping up in his mind, the woman sitting opposite Chihaya made such a voice.

She suddenly raised her head to look at Teacher Sakurazawa's eyes. They were a pair of deep eyes like the pupils cut by the autumn wind. Her bright red lips were plump and moist. Her light brown hair was coiled behind her head, revealing a smooth and beautiful forehead. In comparison, Chihaya is obviously much younger.

There are still eight groups of players left on the field. Chihaya's opponent in this round is Tsui Sakurazawa, the instructor of Utaratabe from Fujisaki High School who is a victorious shogun.The opponent is a very rational person. Although he is completely inferior to himself in terms of hearing, he is almost perfect in the skills of sending and placing cards.

Mr. Sakurazawa from Fujizaki can be said to be a military adviser.Chihaya remembered how Komano, who was holding a notebook, described the existence of Sakurazawa to her before the game started.Fujizaki High School, which had dominated the high school team competition for N years before Ruize, the truly terrifying thing about them is not that they have countless talented players, but that they have Mr. Sakurazawa who can defeat everyone with one.

Compared with a player, Sakura Zecui is actually more suitable to be a teacher.So this battle is both a competition and a study.

After thinking for a while, Sakurazawa-sensei moved a few cards in front of her, and then saluted her, indicating that the game can start again.

Lightning and thunderstorms outside the window interrupted the progress of the round of sixteen for many times. All the players silently endured the noise of the rain, and fell into anxiety before the continuous dripping of sweat.

Chihaya was also a little anxious, and she couldn't explain why.Perhaps it was because she saw Teacher Sakurazawa's calm expression on the opposite side that she instinctively felt that she was being compared.

She closed her eyes, and she could smell the chaotic restlessness in the air only after her vision was plunged into darkness. She tried to take a deep breath, and adjusted her heartbeat to the same frequency as the thunder.

Beat the teacher, win the game, challenge the queen, I can do it...

Chihaya, who opened her eyes again, suddenly felt that her vision became clearer. She took out a hair clip from her pocket, and pinned the wet bangs on her forehead to the top of her head.

There was a cheer of joy from the inner room, and then the sliding door was opened, and a large number of spectators poured out from inside, including Xiaozao and Komaye.

The two had just walked around the corridor when they saw Yusei Nishida walking down the stairs. He hadn't been seen in the Queen's [-]th round of preliminaries. They thought they were hiding there to eat again, but they found He was with Tamano and Mahiru, who were juniors.

"Oh! Kozaru, what's up, that guy Ayase?"

Xiaozao seemed slightly dissatisfied with Nishida's casual question, and pouted, "I won, the difference is 5 cards."

"Really, then there are three more games to come. It seems that Ayase is planning to come for real."

"What's the truth? Qianzao, she's already working hard! Speaking of which, where did you go, Mr. Roubao? I haven't seen your shadow all this time."

Nishida was slightly taken aback, and pointed to the direction of the second floor: "Compared to the queen's battle, I am more concerned about the situation of the celebrity battle." Nishida touched the back of his head, recalling the scene just now, "This year's Sudou It's really powerful, he doesn't give his opponent a chance at all, and always feels that the boy he tortured and killed is really pitiful."

Xiao Zuo suppressed her anger slightly, but her beautiful eyebrows were still frowning: "Don't worry about that, the minister is not here, so you should come and cheer for Qianzao."

"That fellow Ayase will be the same even if I don't work hard. After all, she even defeated Yumi. I really don't know who else can threaten her next."

"Senior Inokuma Haruka is still here in East Japan, and everyone in Ningchuan is helping her."

Koma Ye followed Xiaozao, and echoed, "Although Senior Piggy has graduated for many years, the popularity of the former queen is indeed not for nothing."

"By the way, there have been many queens and celebrities in Bingchuan's history. After all, it is a traditional school of Karuta."

"By the way, I heard that Shin Watani was also recommended by this university."

"What!" Xiaozao looked at Nishida in shock when he heard Nishida's speech, "What's going on, is Watani-kun coming to Tokyo to study in high school?"

"Huh? You don't know Kozaru? Oh, I heard Mashima mention it before."

"The minister is in Kyoto, Miyatani-kun is in Tokyo, the minister is in Kyoto, Miyatani-kun is in Tokyo..." Xiaozao kept repeating, entangled in self-serving.

This is truly a crisis unprecedented in history, Minister!

At this moment, Xiaozao's inner calling naturally did not reach Taiyi who was far away in Kyoto. Seven of the eight teams in the top [-] of the Western Japan Celebrity Qualifiers have ended, and only the pair in the corner are still restricting each other. other side.

A total of 93 cards have now been read, and four of the remaining seven cards are empty.Taiyi raised his head and looked at Xin who was facing him. The other party lowered his gaze and turned the joint of his right shoulder.

There are only three cards left on the tatami, two in front of Taiyi and one in front of the new one.Compared with the disadvantage gap of 17 cards in the last confrontation, the situation this time seems to be much better.

Taiyi lowered his head, although it is much better, but as long as there is no win, everything is just for nothing.

All the spectators focused their attention on the lineup of the two of them. To be honest, when the cards were reduced to a certain level, it was more or less more than luck and mentality.In addition to reading hands, members of the organizing committee on the side also broke out in cold sweat.For them, it was beyond their expectation that Taiichi Mashima, a temporary player who stepped in suddenly, could go so far and force the defending champion Shin Watani into this situation.What if he wins?

While the old members of the committee were hesitating, Taichi was also thinking about the same problem.

Is it really possible to win new words here?

"I hope that the love will last forever, but the heart of a king is not as good as a concubine."

When his mind wandered, a new empty wave suddenly hit him.

It's empty.

So sad, a drop of sweat dripped from Taichi's forehead.

"Ah, Taichi, sorry, did I hit you?"

When Xin raised his head, Taiyi saw his own bewildered face from his pupils with bright spots.He stroked the wet hair on his forehead, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Here we go again, this damn demon.Compared with Shin, who would not treat the person sitting opposite him as a living thing until he finished reading the row, and was completely immersed in the world of Karuta, he was still far behind.

"God Yoyo acts on behalf of..."

With a whoosh, the last card cut through the air and flew straight towards the corner on the right.Everyone on the field stopped breathing, watched the two teenagers smile at each other with relief, then said "Thank you for your advice" and bowed their heads.

Two bad, too one lost.

As if releasing the tense nerves all over his body, Taiyi stood up and knelt beside Xin: "Your right shoulder hurts. Before the next game starts, your right shoulder will be handed over to me."

Xin was slightly stunned, he looked at Tai Yi's sincere face, and then cracked a soft smile.

At the same time, Shi Chang, who was overwhelmed by the crowd, turned his head and opened the sliding door behind him.She walked quietly in the corridor, as if all the noise around her had nothing to do with her.

A gray figure appeared at the turn-around opposite, a girl with shoulder-length hair.

The faint mole of tears has some similarities with Shi Chang.

They passed each other like two strangers, neither of whom noticed the other's existence.However, just after Shi Chang wandered around the corner and left, the girl behind her suddenly stopped and turned around.

"Wakamiya Shichang?"

The girl tilted her head, and her long and narrow eyes revealed a somewhat cold light.

At this moment, Shi Chang still doesn't know that the girl standing behind her has just defeated the defending favorite Aisaka Megumin in the Western Japan Queen's qualifier, and will make waves in her peaceful life in the next period of time.
