[Mainnet King] It’s not too much to use magic to play ball, right?

That night, Yukimura stood in front of the window and looked up at the stars outside the window, holding the invitation letter in his hand, and hesitating in his heart whether to call Amamiya Arashi again.

For a long time, Yukimura moved his slightly stiff neck and legs, then put down the invitation letter in his hand. Finally, after hesitating for a while, he picked up the cell phone he had thrown on the bed and started dialing.

As the ringtone of the cell phone rang, Yukimura's originally nervous heart calmed down a little with the soothing melody.

"Moses Moses? This is Amamiya Arashi..." Yukimura's familiar voice came from the mobile phone, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, and his original nervousness completely disappeared.

"Xiaolan, this is Yukimura." Yukimura Seiichi paused, and then spoke again, "I couldn't contact you before... Then today the tennis club received an invitation letter from U17. Everyone said that they can go..." I don't know. Why, Yukimura always feels like he is a little incoherent.

Maybe it's because Tian Gonglan suddenly 'disappeared' before and now he appears again, so he is a little excited? Yukimura was thinking doubtfully.

"Seichi!" Amamiya Arashi was very surprised when he heard the voice from the other side. Then after hearing Yukimura's words, he began to explain that he suddenly 'disappeared' because he was taken to the assessment by the old man. Then he heard that everyone agreed to accept the invitation to the U17 training camp. Finally, Tiangong Lan replied as a matter of course: "If everyone is going, then I will go too!"

"Seiichi?...Hello?...Seiichi, are you still there?" After two minutes, Amamiya Arashi found that the phone still showed that it was connected, but there was no sound from Yukimura's side, so he didn't know it in his heart. There was some feeling of worry.

Yukimura on the other side, after hearing Amamiya Lan's reply, replied a little late because he was just thinking. He was embarrassed to say that he was studying some changes in himself, so he had to tell a little lie, saying that today's training was a bit excessive, so he was very tired now and couldn't react.

Upon hearing this, Tian Gonglan quickly told him to have a good rest and go to bed early, and if there was anything else he could talk about when he went to school tomorrow. Yukimura hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, although it was just an excuse before, Yukimura lay directly on the bed. Unknowingly, he fell into sleep, but his slightly frowned eyebrows could tell that he seemed to have had a not-so-good dream.

……

When he woke up the next day, Yukimura was still thinking about his previous dream, but unfortunately the memory of the dream seemed to have disappeared, and he couldn't remember it at all.

With no other choice, Yukimura gave up the idea of ​​recalling the dream. After breakfast, he put on his schoolbag and headed to school.

……

When Yukimura came to the tennis club and opened the door to the conference room, he realized that everyone else had already arrived. At this time, they were surrounding Tiangong Lan and asking him what he had been doing during the past few days when he disappeared.

"Hey~ Seiichi! You're here~" After Amamiya Lan briefly talked about his experiences in the past few days, he found that Yukimura was already standing at the door.

"Well, good morning, everyone." Yukimura had a smile on his face, looking as gentle as ever.

"Good morning! Yukimura/Seiichi/Minister." Everyone has their own title. As for 'minister', it was Kirihara who called him. Although he has succeeded to the position of minister now, in his heart, Yukimura will always be his best. Dear Minister. Of course, this is the same in the minds of several other people.

"Jingshi, you came at the right time. This is the new plan I customized yesterday. You can also take a look at it together." Liu took out several special training schedules and handed them to several people.

"Special training?!" Marui was quite surprised, "So... we have to increase the amount of training next!" Since the end of the national competition, Marui has slowly relaxed a little in training.

"Is it because of U17?" Tiangong Lan thought for a moment.

"Yes, I think this time U17 invites junior high school students, maybe with the idea of ​​making high school students feel pressure." Liu's voice was very calm.

"You mean it's similar to the 'catfish effect'?" Yukimura also looked thoughtful, "The possibility is quite high, I feel like."

"After all, this is the first time we are recruiting junior high school students~"

"Actually, this is just a guess..."

"But there is definitely the idea of ​​​​adding some excitement to high school students."

The three of them started to discuss, but Sanada on the side couldn't get in at all.

Niou and Yagyu had their own thoughts in their hearts, while the remaining people looked at each other in confusion.

Then, it was Yukimura who made the final decision, "No matter what, we need to strengthen our training. We still have some time before U17, so it would be good to use it for special training. You don't want to be compared with those high school students, right?" Yukimura looked around and said, I felt satisfied after seeing the fighting spirit on everyone's faces.

……

In the next few days, Amangong Lan and others were training at the tennis club near the school. As for the tennis department, there was a new deputy minister and military advisor~

One day, the training was coming to an end.

There was a "rumbling~" sound in the sky, and then it was like a hole was broken in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.

"It seems to be raining outside," Tiangong Lan walked to the window and said hesitantly, "The rain is a bit heavy!"

"Oh - I also want to visit the newly opened cake shop!" Marui looked out the window dissatisfied.

"It's hard to go home in this weather! Phew~" Nioh complained, "You idiot, you're still thinking about cake."

……

Later, thinking that the place where he lived now was quite big, Tiangong Lan invited everyone to stay at his house. After all, his house was the closest to here.

Seeing that there was no sign of the heavy rain getting any smaller or stopping outside, they agreed to Tiangong Lan's invitation after thinking about it. After that, everyone except Tian Gonglan took out their mobile phones, called home to tell their families that they were safe, and then told them to stay at their classmates' houses.

After doing all this, they borrowed a few sets of raincoats from the counter, and then followed Amangong Lan to his house. One thing to say, Amangong Lan's house is really close to this club. If you run quickly, you can see it in just a minute or two.

As soon as they arrived at Tiangong Lan's house, they all went to take a shower. Although they were wearing raincoats, they were still soaked. As for the clothes to change, they could only wear Tiangong Lan's clothes first. Anyway, he still had quite a few sets. Unpacked clothes.

Since it was an unexpected decision for everyone in the tennis club to stay overnight at Amangong Lan today, Bing Jing didn't prepare their dinner before, so when they were taking a shower, Bing Jing started preparing dinner again. According to the speed of the ice mirror, it is estimated that they will be almost ready to eat after washing them.

……

Everyone who had taken a shower put on the new clothes provided by Tiangong Lan, but they might have been originally bought according to Tiangong Lan's body shape, so they would be somewhat inappropriate for other people. For example, the white long-sleeved shirt worn by Yukimura and Yanagi's sweatshirt are a bit too big, the one worn by Sanada is a bit tight, and the hem and sleeves worn by Kirihara are a bit too long... but it can be done for one night. It's still ok.

The teenagers who came out of the shower and planned to make dinner by themselves did not expect to be able to eat ready-made, so they all expressed their gratitude to Bing Jing.

After eating, Yagyu and Yanagi went to the study room out of curiosity about Amamiya Arashi's collection of books. Kirihara and Enjing sat together playing games, while the others gathered around to watch movies.

After a while, Kirihara and Enjing, who were playing games, got tired of that game and planned to change it. However, at this time, Xiao Ke called Enjing, so Enjing told Kirihara where the other game cards were stored and asked him to go there. take.

With Amamiya Arashi's consent, Kirihara walked to Amamiya Arashi's room and found the big box that Yan Jing mentioned - as for why this box was in Amamiya Arashi's room... that's because the cards in it were all used by Amamiya Arashi. Lan gave it to 'confiscated' in various names.

When Kirihara passed by the table holding the cardboard box, something seemed to flash on the table. Kirihara blinked and realized that he didn't see anything, so he walked out muttering something like an 'illusion'.

When Kirihara left, a book floating in the air suddenly appeared above the empty table, and the pages were still turning.

……

After a long time, the teenagers were tired and decided to go to bed. Due to the insufficient number of rooms (only three master rooms and three guest rooms), it was impossible for each person to have one room. In addition, Bing Jing was not used to having other people around when sleeping. , Enjing's sense of Kirihara is pretty good, so Kirihara and Enjing are together, while Hingjing is alone. Counting Tiangong Lan, there are a total of eight rooms and four rooms for the rest, which are also suitable for two people. So the eight of them were assigned rooms by drawing lots. The final result is - Amamiya Arashi and Yukimura, Yanagi and Yagyu, Nioh and Marui, Sanada and Kuwahara.

After assigning rooms, everyone planned to go to bed.

Amamiya Lan dragged Yukimura to his room. When he opened the door, the book suspended in the air no longer turned pages, but landed smoothly on the table, hiding its own existence.

……

After opening the door, Tian Gonglan turned on the indoor light in the dark, and then took out another quilt from the cabinet. After the two spread the quilt, they began to lie on the bed.

This is the first time that Amangong Lan has been lying on the same bed with his peers at this age. Originally he thought he would not be able to sleep, but unexpectedly he fell asleep quickly.

Yukimura next to him slowly fell asleep listening to Amamiya Arashi's breathing.

It was late at night, except for the heavy rain outside that had not stopped.

When everyone in this courtyard fell into a deep sleep, the missing 'book' appeared again. This time it directly divided into eight small water droplets and merged into the bodies of Yukimura, Yanagi, Sanada, Nioh, Marui, Kuwahara, Yagyu and Kirihara respectively.

When the unknown 'little water droplets' integrated into their bodies, they all had the same but slightly different dream.

……

"Yukimura...Yukimura..." A voice called in Yukimura's ears, and the man's worry could still be heard in his voice.

He opened his eyes and found Sanada looking at him worriedly. Next to him were Yanagi, Kirihara, Niou, and Yagyu... As he looked at it, Yukimura suddenly felt that he had forgotten something. He always felt that there should be someone else. Yes, but...

"Buchou, are you okay? Let's take you to the hospital for a checkup!" Kirihara's worried words interrupted Yukimura's thinking.

Hospital... Hearing this word, Yukimura's head hurt. He seemed to have thought of something. He... seemed to have just suddenly collapsed at the station? !

Seeing the painful expression on Yukimura's face, Sanada picked him up without waiting for him to object, followed by others from the tennis club, and took Yukimura to the hospital.

Then, as if on double speed, Yukimura was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome. After that, he was hospitalized for observation at the doctor's suggestion to nurse his body back to optimal condition, and then had surgery... Because he was not discovered in time, he It may take a long time for treatment, and after the treatment, it may have some adverse effects on his tennis career... Yukimura wanted to open his mouth to say something, but found himself speechless.

In the next few days, everyone in the tennis club came to see him almost every day, and promised him that he would definitely win the 16th consecutive championship in Kanto. But for some reason, the more he heard them say this, the more panicked he felt. .

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the day comes when Yukimura needs surgery, and the Kanto competition reaches the finals.

Marui Kuwahara, Niou and Yagyu who won the doubles match came to the hospital after saying hello and told Yukimura the good news that they had won two games in a row and believed that the next three singles games, except for singles two, were uncertain. Others, they can't possibly lose.

Unexpectedly, Yanagi chose to let go because of his guilt towards Kotame, while Sanada chose to seal the 'Yin Thunder' for Tezuka Kunimitsu, even if he lost the game and lost the Kanto that his seniors had worked so hard to get. The honor of winning streak... Nioh's veins jumped when he saw this scene on the broadcast. He finally calmed down and did not dare to show anything wrong in front of Yukimura, who was about to undergo surgery. Now he just wants Yukimura to go into surgery with hope instead of despair.

Under Nioh's 'sweet words' and the doctor's persuasion, Yukimura gave up waiting for the Kanto Tournament championship trophy that Sanada said and chose to wait until after the operation. With such expectations, Yukimura was pushed into the operating room.

At this time, several people who lost the game came to the hospital and saw them. Nioh punched Sanada directly, while Marui comforted the embarrassed Kirihara. Sanada didn't react much after being beaten, but looked worriedly at the operating room, and Liu had the same expression. Kirinori cried quietly in Marui's arms.

Nioh had no problem with Kirihara because he did try his best. As for Sanada and Yanagi... the current Niou doesn't want to talk to them, while Yagyu supports his partner's choice. Kuwahara, who is standing aside, is a little at a loss.

After a while, Yukimura was pushed out of the operating room by the doctor. According to the doctor, the operation was successful, but it would take a long time for reexamination. Then he heard the doctor say that the patient would not wake up today. The person just left the hospital.

The next day, Yukimura, who was full of expectations, received the bad news that Rikkai Okanto's winning streak was cut off. He felt collapsed and drove the others out of the ward.

In the next few days, Yukimura did not accept the doctor's advice, but worked hard to recover. Now he no longer wants to believe Sanada... After letting them leave, Yukimura watched the replay of the game, and he discovered According to their true strength, Sanada and Yanagi's loss was unreasonable.

While Yukimura was recuperating like crazy, Nioh on the other side was also training hard. Under crazy training, Nioh perfected the move 'Phantom'.

……

Soon after, the national competition began, and Rikkai University still faced Seigaku in the finals.

In the third singles match, Sanada had to go head-to-head with Tezuka. Although he won in the end, his knee couldn't stand anymore.

Doubles 2, Yanagi and Kirihara won the victory smoothly

Because when arranging the match list, Nioh proposed that he wanted to play singles, so with Yukimura's consent, Nioh played singles and two against Fuji. He transformed into Tezuka and performed inimitable moves such as the "Trick of the Year", but the "Trick of the Shining Talent" was broken by Fuji Shusuke's "eye of the mind", and then turned into a white stone to defeat five types of returns. Then he lost to the sixth type of return "Star Spark".

Therefore, Nioh, who played second in singles, also lost to Fuji.

In the next doubles match, Marui and Kuwahara also lost to the opponent's Aigaku's golden combination of Kikumaru and Oishi.

……

Watching these games, Yukimura always felt something was wrong for some reason... Obviously, it shouldn't be like this.

Next, Aigaku's Echizen lost his memory again, and then the child named Toyama came to challenge me. Yukimura was wandering in the world, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Suddenly he seemed to come to his senses and thought, 'Again? Why do I use this word? Did Echizen suffer from amnesia before? …’

As Yukimura continued to think, a sense of pain slowly appeared in his brain.

After experiencing a series of "warm-up matches" that seemed like a joke, Sanada leaving the table and other incidents, Echizen Ryoma finally regained his memory and stood on the tennis court.

In the next game, Yukimura scored four points unstoppably, and then Echizen, who had his five senses taken away, suddenly broke his "destroying five senses" as if he were the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic. Then he also pushed open the last door to selflessness - the limit of seamlessness.

Seeing Echizen, who said that the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the game, successfully score points in his hands one after another, but his body gradually lost control and began to show flaws, Yukimura just felt ridiculous - this is a sports competition, not something else. A game of house.

Moreover, would anyone be happy about losing a game when they were just one step away from the championship? If they were equally happy whether they won or lost, then why would they participate in the competition? Yukimura was very annoyed, not only because of Echizen's words, but also partly because his body movements did not match his thoughts.

"Bang——" "Bang——"

"3-4"

……

"5-4"

Seeing the score of being overtaken or even overtaking, Yukimura seemed to be using his mental power like crazy. Finally, with a "click" sound, Yukimura suddenly felt that his body and soul were more 'fitted'.

At this time, Echizen Ryoma was serving again.

"boom--"

……

"5-5"

Feeling that he was back to normal, Yukimura quickly scored a point to tie the score.

Later, when I wanted to use 'Dreamland', I found that I seemed to be restricted by something, and I couldn't use this trick at all.

After thinking for a moment, Yukimura closed his eyes and looked for the feeling of hearing the breaking sound before.

Then, a humanoid creature that seemed to be shrouded in thick fog suddenly appeared behind Yukimura. When it does, Yukimura's hitting increases in strength and speed.

Soon Yukimura won two games and won the singles one 7-5.

Just when he got the championship trophy, suddenly the scene around him changed.

He seemed to have returned to the time when he competed with Echizen Ryoma, and then Echizen Ryoma started the match seamlessly, but this time, he was just a bystander.

He watched 'himself' lose the game in embarrassment... and saw the people around him cheering for Echizen Ryoma's victory...

Yukimura turned his attention to Tatekai's player bench: Marui, Kuwahara, Kirihara, Yagyu, Sanada, Nioh, Yanagi... and... who else?

It shouldn't be like this, there is obviously someone else... Yukimura's eyes fell on Tatekai Dai's position, as if he was looking for something.

When his eyes fell on Sanada again, Yukimura's mind unconsciously flashed Sanada's words, "We, Tachikai, must stand upright on the top of the mountain."

‘…upright and upright…’ ‘Psychic tennis… not very common…’ ‘…professional player competition…’ ‘I’m sorry…’

Yukimura's mind suddenly flashed into the image of Sanada, who was not yet in junior high school, apologizing to him, and the scene where he saw Sanada vetoing his tennis with a serious look on his face, and then there was a noisy sound in his ears.

"Who? Who is it?" Yukimura covered his ears and tried to think back.

"...Hello, I am Amamiya Arashi..." A clear voice sounded in Yukimura's ears.

"Amamiya... Arashi?" As Yukimura whispered Amamiya Arashi's name, the noise in his ears began to disappear, and the surrounding environment began to change. The difference this time is that time went directly back to the Kanto Competition, watching Liu win the three singles... and watching Rittsuda successfully win the sixteenth consecutive Kanto Competition, watching that 'self' stand beside his partner Beside them, Yukimura slowly smiled.

The scene then switched directly to the national competition, where Lihai University won the championship with a total score of 5-0. Seeing this, Yukimura's smile became even brighter.

……
