I want to play tennis

Chapter 15 Toru Kitahara's Little Thoughts

"Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo~~~"

Even the first-choice players were exhausted and out of breath after running fifty laps, sweating profusely, and their eyes were dim.

Kitahara Toru and the others are okay, they can barely stand.

Supporting his knees with his hands, he let the sweat slide over his handsome face, passing through the perfect sculpted jawline, and falling drop by drop onto the playground.

"I said...Senior Xiangri...just finished running...just lying on the ground...isn't that good."

Seeing Higyake who was lying powerlessly on the playground, his chest heaving violently, panting like a bellows, Kitahara Toru felt that the senior's physical strength was really not very good.

"I...I...know...know!"

Listening to Xiang Hiyake's intermittent speech, Kitahara Toru silently kept this situation in his heart.

On the other hand, outside the playground, Mingo Ryo, who was training with the second team, saw the regular candidates with such a large amount of training, with a serious expression and muttering to himself.

"Too bad!"

This is his self-criticism because he thinks that his training volume is not as good as that of Zhengxuan.

It has to be said that Toru Kitahara seriously suspected that coach Sakaki's penalty run was aimed at him, in order to establish the prestige of the coach in his heart.

I have to say, he...succeeded.

To be honest, even a proud person like Atobe obediently listens to Coach Sakaki. He is an inspirational person who wants to be the favorite of the seniors, the favorite of the coach, and the ice emperor group. How could he do something rebellious!

Maybe it's because Coach Sakaki saw that the effect was achieved, maybe it's because of the big stick and the jujube, anyway, the training in the future...doesn't need to be doubled.

This also made Zhengxuan and others, who had been amnesty, exhausted after training, and Xiang Riyue could not even speak, and now he only felt a churning in his stomach.

Looking at the crowd, Coach Sakaki shook his head expressionlessly.

"You look like this, it's still too early to win the championship in the national competition."

Yes, the quality of pride seems to be engraved in the Tennis Club of Hyotei Academy, from the coaches to the bones of every member.

In addition to their extremely strong desire to win, their goal was set at the national competition from the very beginning!

"In the regional preliminaries a few months later, we will still send a mixed combination of the second team and the first team in the capital competition as before. The Kanto competition is when we will give full play."

Coach Sakaki looked at the main candidates who were only panting, and nodded.

"Then, it's over, let's stop here today and disband."

After finishing speaking, he left without waiting for Kitahara Toru and the others to respond.

Toru Kitahara, who slowly stood up, thought in his heart, he remembered that in the anime, the Ice Emperor was underestimated by the enemy, and Fudofeng used Tian Ji's horse racing method to steal the victory from his hands in the capital competition. Here are the Chapter 5 tickets to the Kanto Tournament.

With me here, Fudo Peak is doomed to fail this time.

Kitahara Toru made up his mind.

But before that...

Seeing Higakuto and Akutagawa Jiro lying motionless on the ground, Toru Kitahara felt that it would be better to solve the problems of these two people first.

"It's hard work, hard work."

After tidying up a bit, Kitahara Toru looked at Xiang Hiyake who was carrying a bag and was about to go home alone, and hurried up.

"Senior Xiangri."

Xiang Hiyake, who had a good sense of Toru Kitahara, turned around and said with a smile, "What's the matter Kitahara? Is there something wrong?"

"Senior, I know there is a very delicious ramen shop, do you want to go together, I treat you."

For Kitahara Toru, Xiang Riyue knew that he was also promoted from the Bingdi Elementary School, and his strength is good, and the smile on his face is also the easy-going type that Xiang Riyue likes to get along with. He has a good relationship with Kitahara Toru, or He is willing to take care of Toru Kitahara, a junior who is satisfactory to him.

After all...he is already in the third grade.

"Okay, but how can I let my junior treat guests, of course I, the senior, will treat me!"

Xiang Riyue patted his chest with his big hands. Although his face was a little pale because his physical strength had not yet fully recovered, his proud look really looked like a complacent cat.

"Then I will thank the senior."

"Where is it, you are being polite. Speaking of Beiyuan, you are quite tall."

"Well, I have 150 eight centimeters."

"Hey! Isn't that the same height as me! The current first grade is really..."

"Senior, it has nothing to do with the first grade."

Seeing the two chatting happily, Yushi Ninzu behind them raised his glasses silently.

"I wanted to pay back that guy Yue Ren's soda money last time, but it seems that I have no chance."

Feng Changtaro, who walked up to him, smiled gently.

"If you just walked up, you should be able to pay it back, Senior Renzu."

Yushi Ninzu is a third grader and Hochotaro is a second grader.

"Maybe, I prefer the beauty of adults."

"Are you sure you don't want to procrastinate, senior?"

Ninja Yuuji shrugged noncommittally.

"It's funny that Yue Ren is anxious."

"Senior's taste is really strange."

Hocho Taro smiled.

"Then, I excuse myself first."

Looking at Hochotaro in sportswear and carrying a tennis bag, Yuuji Shinozu smiled slightly.

"Have you gone to help that guy Mingto with special training again? Chotaro is really a good guy."

She stretched lazily.

"Hey, it's me, I can only go home alone."

Just when Ninaku Yuji was thinking this way, he suddenly felt someone lying on his shoulder.

Turning his head, looking at the sleeping Akutagawa Jirou, Ninzu Yushiro smiled helplessly.

"Hey, it seems that God still takes pity on me."

"Ci Lang wake up, it's time to go home."

"Hmm... what?"

"Hey, don't drool!"

the other side.

In a ramen shop.

"I'm gonna start now!"

Kitahara Toru and Xiang Hiyake were already hungry after intense training, so they picked up chopsticks and started to eat.

"Yeah, Kitahara, the taste of this ramen shop is really good!"

Compared with Xiang Riyue who eats with gusto, Kitahara Toru is thinking how to quietly remind Xiang Riyue to pay attention to his physical problems.

For the proud people like Ice Emperor, it should be mentioned the opponent they care about, the senior Jiro is Bunta Marui, and the senior Xiang Ri is...

"Senior, I watched your game when I was in elementary school, and your moon face turning is so handsome!"

"Yeah, so where, but Beiyuan, you have a really good eye."

"Really, if I have to describe it, it's simply a stunt master flying in the air gorgeously."

Kitahara Toru's bragging and coaxing can be said to be completely exaggerated to the point of Xiang Riyue, and now Xiang Riyue is almost like a cat that is comfortably petted.

"Hey, Beiyuan, you are really exaggerating, hahaha."

You're exaggerating too.

Toru Kitahara smiled slightly.

"But when it comes to stunt shots, I remember Qingxue has one called..."

"Eiji Kikumaru!"

Seeing that the mention of this name looked like a cat with fried hair, Kitahara Toru secretly smiled.

"Yeah, I remember him being pretty good at trick shots, too."

"Mine is even better!"

Xiang Hiyueren looked at Toru Kitahara without blinking his eyes, full of seriousness.

"My stunt shot is even better!"

"Yes, of course I think the senior's stunt shots are more powerful."

"Hmph, of course."

Xiang Riyue said that he was going to start eating noodles again.

"But the senior is not physically strong."

Give Riyue people a hand to eat noodles.

"If because of poor physical strength, I lose to an opponent who is also good at this field in the field I am good at."

Kitahara Toru looked at Xiang Riyue and smiled faintly.

"Then in the future, when people mention this field, they will only think of Eiji Kikumaru."

"Oh!"

"Can't!"

Looking at Xiang Hiyue who suddenly stood up excitedly, Kitahara Toru was dumbfounded. Does the reaction have to be so big?

Looking at the strange eyes of the guests around him, Toru Kitahara quickly pulled Xiang Hiyue to sit down.

"Senior, don't get excited!"

Xiang Riyue had already ignored Toru Kitahara.

"Hmph, physical strength, I will definitely overcome this difficulty!"

His eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he picked up his backpack with a swipe.

"Bei Yuan, I understand what you mean, but, as a senior, I actually let a first-year worry about me, I'm so weak!"

Xiang Riyue looked at Toru Kitahara seriously.

"Senior, I will make your eyes shine, just wait."

Kitahara smiled.

"Come on, senior."

Xiang Riyue left first, saying that he was going back for additional training.

Sitting in the noodle shop, Toru Kitahara looked out the window at the setting sun that turned the sky into fiery red, and smiled warmly.

"Senior Xiangri, it seems that he said that he wants to treat guests..."

"By the way, has he paid for his face..."

……

"no……"
