I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Unlike China, which is all about learning, no, everything is about exam-oriented education. Although Japan's pressure to enter a higher education is also very heavy, it has not given up other activities.

In Japan, there are a variety of club activities starting from elementary school. Participating in a club is not a plaything, but a part of school life. In order to ensure the quality of the club, the school sets aside a fund every year to develop the club.

For students, participating in club activities is the norm, and those who do not participate are the outliers. Take Tohno Shiki as an example. If he didn't have "anemia" symptoms caused by lack of vitality, he would not go home early after class.

Club activities are generally arranged after school. Sports clubs with competitive characteristics will also add a morning exercise before going to school. Japanese schools start late and finish early, so the extra time is used to prepare for club activities.

Sakura and Shinji went out so early because of club activities.

As a ghost student in the school, Shinji is unwilling to even go to school, let alone join any clubs. However, he did not participate, Sakura did, and it was a club that was very famous in Fuyuki and even the surrounding areas - the Kyudo Club of Sui Gunhara Middle School.

Archery is a sport that has a considerable audience in Japan and there are many competitions. The Kyudo Club of Suiqunhara Middle School has done very well in this area and is highly valued by the school. Every year, many students submit applications to join the club, but not many of them can pass the test and are allowed to join. They either have outstanding talents in this area or have a good foundation from practicing archery since childhood.

Of course, for Sakura, who has practiced martial arts since childhood and whose physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, the entrance test is just child's play. Even though he had no foundation in archery skills, he quickly took the position of deputy general of the Kyudo Club. He was hailed as the future star of the Kyudo Club and was highly anticipated by other members.

The Kyudo Club's morning practice time is at seven o'clock, which is still an hour away from the eight o'clock school officially starts. At this time, most students had not arrived at school, and the school was very deserted.

The brother and sister didn't care. My younger sister is used to this kind of campus, but my older brother doesn't feel much about it because he doesn't come to school often. There are too many people but not many people. And he decided to accompany his sister, so he didn't plan to go anywhere else. When his sister went to practice at the Kyudo Club, he went with her to the archery range to watch.

As one of the school's business cards, the archery range is very professionally built and has all kinds of archery-related facilities. From the perspective of a middle school, it may even seem a bit excessive. It is said that the principal loved the sport of archery so much that he invested a considerable amount of money to build this professional venue. The good results of the archery club are also inseparable from the perfect training venue itself.

As soon as she entered the archery range, Sakura seemed to have changed into a different person, from a sister who relied on her brother to a star figure in the club. She greeted her seniors and peers, and then began to call equipment, arrange the venue and allocate personnel, acting like a big housekeeper.

Under her leadership, it took less than ten minutes for the Kyudo Club's morning training to begin. Sakura, who put on the archery-specific kyudo uniform, held a bow in one hand and a white-feathered arrow in the other, aiming at the target and shooting the first arrow of the day.

She didn't need to see the result, just looking at Sakura's tense posture and focused eyes, Shenji knew that this arrow must be ten rings.

The result, as he expected, was without any suspense.

Today's club activities got off to a good start. The members took their bows and arrows to the shooting position, one arrow after another. Whenever someone shot well, the companions next to them would applaud. Of course, the second-in-command in the club, Vice-General Sakura, received the most applause and achieved the best results.

Seeing his sister surrounded by her peers with a pure smile on her face, Shenji casually took a sip of tea with a face filled with relief. It was right not to let her go to the Clock Tower, but to stay in Fuyuki and attend an ordinary school. It might slightly delay her magic training, but compared with her sister's healthy growth, this loss was nothing.

It's still good. If such a cute sister grew crooked and turned into one of those annoying mainstream magicians, Shinji would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

A new round of practice began, and Sakura hit the target again. This was the fifth time she hit the target today, setting a new personal best.

The girl who put down her bow and arrow shook her long purple hair, which was tied into a ponytail so as not to interfere with the shooting of the bow, waved to Shinji, and made a weird gesture of clasping her index finger and thumb.

It was a gesture that only the brother and sister knew, and it belonged exclusively to their childhood memories. At that time, I was just getting started with rune magic. In order to maximize the power of rune stones, I chose to use a slingshot as my weapon.

Sakura, who had been her brother's follower since she was a child, saw that she wanted to follow suit, and Shinji helped her make a slingshot. But it's not a professional-grade compound slingshot, just a small amateur toy. Even so, Sakura still had fun and practiced with her brother every day. Every time she hit the target, she would wave to Shinji like this.

"This girl." Shenji said softly, his eyes warm.

"Ah, isn't this the rumored genius student?"

A female voice came from behind. Shenji turned sideways and turned to the girl who spoke, a strange yet familiar person.

They were strangers because they didn't know each other much, they only talked a few times and knew each other's names.

I am familiar with her because she is very similar to one of Shenji's old friends. Her short hair, soft and heroic face, and her free and uninhibited personality are all like replicas of the two rituals, except for her figure - a figure Not much better than Tohsaka Rin, the girl in front of her could give Sakura a run for her money.

"I don't dare to take it seriously, I don't dare take it seriously. Speaking of rumors and fame, you seem to be more famous than me, Mizu Ayako-san."

Ayako Mizuchi is the name of this girl. Before Shinji traveled through time, she was known as "Shiki-san". She was even nicknamed "Nuclear Chai Shenya", one of the "Four Guardians of Fuyuki" - a joke. nature. However, one thing must be mentioned. Excluding the mysterious qualities, Ayako Meisui is no worse than the two rituals.

There is no need to say much about her appearance and figure. She is similar to Shiki. Ayako is also from a martial arts family. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and is proficient in all kinds of martial arts. Her mantra is "Beauty can't be beautiful without learning martial arts." Her skills are extremely impressive for ordinary people. She can break ten tiles with one punch. She is a modern female hero.

Because of his outstanding appearance and bold personality, he is very popular in the school. Because of his strong force value, many students privately regard him as one of the most inviolable people in the school.

"Just call me Meizu." The girl sat down next to Shen Er in a familiar manner. "I'm here every day, and you're almost never here. If you were here every day, you would definitely be much more famous than me. Speaking of which, today What kind of wind is blowing that brings you, a person who almost never comes to school, to come to our archery club?"

PS: The traitor asked professionals. Breaking ten tiles with one punch is a professional black belt level in Japan. In China, it is also a master who has practiced martial arts since childhood and has been immersed in it for 20 years - "Bajiquan". It can be done. In the industry, "Bajiquan" is often called "breaking down the wall". It seems that there is a wall specially used for practice.

PS2: The "Four Guardians" and the reasons for their name have already been mentioned by the traitor, so I won't go into details.
