"Wei Yong" You are the Hua of Twilight Ice
Chapter 11 The Challenge of Free Skating
No one, including Yuuri, sees Victor's true purpose.Standing behind Victor, Yuuri didn't know whether to answer him or not when he heard this.
"That's right, Victor is the highest scorer in the world and he's even reached the 100th level several times!" Yuuri's expression was indescribable as he was helpless with his coach.Victor, who seemed to have heard nothing, quickly changed the subject.
As he spoke, he turned around holding his Makachin cardboard box, trying to face Yuuri, "By the way, Yuuri, about tomorrow's free skate," Yuuri could only force the "囧" facial expression back normal.
As soon as he got serious, Victor quickly pulled the two paws of Makachin's paper box and held them up in front of him, and waved cutely at Yuuri twice, "I hope you can reduce the difficulty of jumping, and then concentrate on the performance."
Yuuri didn't recover all of a sudden, he was slightly stunned.
"Even in practice, you haven't succeeded from beginning to end, have you?" Victor was still straightforward. "But..." Yuuri didn't want to just give up.This is the first time he has shown this piece of music in front of everyone.It's all about his music, and Yuuri doesn't know how much he wants to present a complimented, different, stronger version of himself in the first place.If the difficulty is lowered, what can this be counted as?
However, Victor was obviously not ready to let go, and he explained his reasons in full next.Victor continued to wave the cute paper box with a smile, "It's not a bad thing to drop the difficulty at the beginning of the season!" During the detailed analysis, he took a few more steps in Yuuri's direction, forcing Yuuri to subconsciously go step back. "For Yuuri, the most important thing is to adjust to the best state according to the time of the Grand Prix final!"
The silver-haired Russian coach hit the crux of the problem.Yuuri, who was not very assertive in the first place, already started to waver when he heard this sentence.Victor is right!In such a state, is it okay to be conservative as long as the score is not too low?What if something happens because of a quadruple jump?Seems like it would be nice to still be able to enter the sub-station, right?Why force it this time?
Yuuri was going to listen to Victor.
But what really made Yuuri stop insisting was Victor's words.Victor stared at him deeply with the expression he showed at the edge of the ice rink, "Aren't you going to listen to the coach?" After speaking, he imitated two Makachin-style calls pitifully.
There was an announcement outside that the next contestant, Akira Fujiwara, would be on the stage, and Yuuri responded with a low voice.He literally gave up.Forget it, it’s good to get the first place, why do I still pursue to perform the best [YURIONICE]?
After Yuuri answered this, he didn't say anything more.Although the consistent habit made Yuuri give up the difficulty of insisting on maintaining the original, in the past few months, he has gradually realized that this is not very good.And because of this, he was eager to persist in action but gave up, so Yuuri fell into an uncomfortable contradiction.
No matter how ecstatic Xiaonan was for Yuuri's transformation from refreshing to bewitching style, and for his perfect Axel triple axel just now, he almost wanted to give him 300 execution points, but at this moment in the waiting room, there was a kind of embarrassment breath.
Until Mr. Moroka came in after the short program to make a special report, Victor and Yuuri had a very tacit understanding and neither of them mentioned this topic.From Victor's point of view, he has participated in countless competitions, so he naturally knows what he is not good at, and he needs to make use of his strengths and avoid weaknesses, and play the most outstanding part of himself.He also knows how to save himself a little effort when necessary.
From Yuuri's point of view, this is the first time his "YURIONICE" has appeared in the eyes of everyone, and of course he wants to do the best he can.This shouldn't hurt him even more.
Victor also understood that this matter could not go on, otherwise, the delicate and sensitive piggy would definitely think that this was denying him and his efforts.He can only rely on himself to think clearly and make a decision.
"Please talk about your enthusiasm for the free skating in the future!" The anchor Zhuoka himself acted as the reporter on the scene.
There was still some unnatural expression on Yuuri's face, he couldn't remember what he was going to say, "Uh...uh" he quickly thought about how he should answer.
"Tomorrow's free skating will of course let everyone see a perfect Yuuri!" Victor said happily today, spreading his hands in front of the camera.Obviously, Victor is also very familiar with the interviews related to the game.
Originally, the interview was just interrupted, and while talking, Nan Kenjiro, who finished the performance, also walked in with his forehead full of joy. "Finally, Axel succeeded in triple axel!" The little boy seemed extremely happy.His coach Kanako-sensei also recognized that this is the best time.
However, as a little fanboy, Xiaonan's wish that Yuuri could see his performance is doomed to fail.
"Did Yuuri see Lohengrin in my performance?" Xiao Nan looked forward to it.
Yuuri, who had just reacted from the topic with Victor just now, turned his head blankly, "Ah, I didn't see it in the interview just now, sorry!"
Victor also turned his head back, looking at Kenjiro Minami expressionlessly.
The little boy was extremely disappointed, he seemed so annoyed that he was about to burst into tears, he stared at Yuuri with a heart-shattering expression, "Yuuri's representative program, Lohengrin, even made costumes like that to show respect!"
Someone unzips his jacket and shows it to Yuuri.
As soon as Yuuri saw that this was obviously exactly the same as his back then, the whole body was shining with gold, a big cross was drawn from the shoulders to the waist, and the feather-like hem was wrapped around the waist like an Indian, all of a sudden he didn't care about anything else. No more, my face turned completely red.
"Ugh! My black history costume!" Maybe it was too frightened, Yuuri shouted this sentence without thinking.
Now, Victor knows that he has such a shameful record!Yuuri belatedly realized something.
Minami Kenjiro, who hadn't withdrawn his tears, heard it, and he looked at Yuuri seriously, "Yuuri's black history doesn't want to exist at all! Please don't treat me as a fool who has been looking forward to chasing Yuuri, okay? Tomorrow's free skate, I will I will try my best to skate, and Yuuri, please try my best to have a showdown with me!" Kenjiro Minami seemed to have an afternoon call, "If I let the water go, I won't give up!"
Viktor's expression became serious, Minami Kenjiro said, will Yuuri... There is a small worry that is fleeting.
Xiao Nan's indignant look really surprised Yuuri, but Yuuri also felt that something important seemed to be grasped in his mind.But now, he has no time to care about these things, because on the one hand, Mr. Moroka began to summarize the scene just now as "the challenge declaration of the South player" in order to increase the point of view.
Hearing "Last year's Japan National Competition was ranked above Katsuki's Minami Kenjiro, his first participation in the adult group is to gamble on the true skills of the change of generations! Here in Okayama, Katsuki will be the first open free skating The show accepts the challenge!" Yuuri broke out in cold sweat.
Oh no……
Viktor noticed Yuuri's trembling nervousness in time, stopped the interview, put his bag on his shoulders, and pulled him away.
After all, Yuuri wasn't really scared today.Having gone through Victor's careful "desensitization training", those reactions are only remaining conditioned reflexes now.Yuuri had already recovered when Victor grabbed him with a hand that was obviously lower than his own temperature, and took him out of the lounge.
Victor still looked nervous, and it was impossible not to be moved.Yuuri suddenly felt relieved, let's do what Victor said, he is so good, he is always thinking of himself, how could he let himself do things that are not conducive to the game!Anyway, the ultimate goal is only the Grand Prix final, so it should be clear!
It was also because of so many distractions that I simply stopped bringing up the topic of free skating.In fact, Victor and Yuuri were very happy when they won the first place in the short program. In addition, Victor’s transformation seems to be in an intermission period. No matter whether there will be another peak period later, at least the symptoms have eased a lot now.Victor and Yuuri tried their best to be in the best condition during the game, and they also had a good rest, so it was very pleasant to come to a small town different from Hasezu.
After returning to the place where he lived, Yuuri seriously relaxed his muscles and soaked his feet to prepare for tomorrow's game. Victor actually laid down on Yuuri's bed in a stately manner, checked the surrounding places suitable for sightseeing with his mobile phone, and did it seriously Started homework.
While Yuuri sat on the edge of the bed soaking his feet, he tried to get Victor to lie on his stomach on his bed, but it didn't work.Yuuri had to give up the idea.Finally, before turning off the lights and going to bed, Victor reluctantly moved to his bed with the Makachin doll that he had been hugging in his arms after being reminded in every possible way.
In this way, until the next day before the competition, Yuuri did not mention the matter of maintaining the difficulty. Seeing that he no longer raised objections, Victor was relieved, thinking that he had figured it out, and decided to focus on performance during the free skating .
The next day, as usual, it was Mr. Moroka who made a follow-up report as a mirror reporter.
"Central Shikoku Kyushu Figure Skating Competition, the adult men's free skating competition is about to begin." Zhuoka anchor said in the preparation room, "Everyone is paying attention to Yuri Katsuki and his coach Victor Nikiforov. In yesterday's In the short program, with his best score of 94.36 points, he ranked first far ahead of other players."
When his name was mentioned, Victor smiled at the camera and waved, "Hi~"
And Yuuri just prepared silently, ignoring the introduction to himself in his ear.
Feeling a bit flat?Seems to be down?Victor felt something.
Moroka's voice was still coming, "It is said that in today's free skating, there will be three quadruple jumps!" Hearing this sentence, Yuuri's eyebrows furrowed slightly.Although I have never raised this question again, and I have approved Victor's strategy in my heart, I am not very reconciled, right?Yuuri continued to tie the shoelace on the other foot, "Although Victor said to reduce the difficulty, change it to only one quadruple..."
At this moment, the three of them, Nan Kenjiro and Fujiwara Akira, heard Moroka's introduction.
"Quadruple jump, I will also challenge today!" Xiaonan's high morale words caught Yuuri's attention.He raised his head to look at the three boys who were a few years younger than him not far away.
Onishi Yu was straightforward, and asked in surprise, "Really, didn't you succeed in practice?" The dark coffee-colored hair swayed in disbelief.
Yuuri's cold sweat that was streaming down was ignored by him at this moment.The only thing in my mind is - "Didn't you also fail when you practiced?"
That’s right, so far Axel’s triple axel jump has not surpassed [-]% chance of success, so how could the quadruple jump be successful?
But what did Xiaonan say?Ah, yes, he said that today he will also challenge the quadruple jump!Moreover, with his lead, Fujiwara and Onishi will also try quadruple jumps.
why?
Why?
Nan Jianjiro, don't they want to represent the country in the Grand Prix?Obviously impossible.But why is he willing to make such an apparently impossible attempt?Even Xiao Nan, who is just a child in his eyes, can do this, so...
Yuuri didn't want to hesitate.
He knew that Victor was doing it for his own good. Victor had been doing his best to bring himself closer to the gold medal in the grand prix, and he often saw Victor rubbing between his brows with a slightly pale complexion.However, Yuuri also knew that from his own perspective, if he really gave up the difficulty of free skating this time as he said, it would be a disappointment to this man's dedication all the time.
Yuuri is not a decisive person, but it is precisely because of this that he is able to appreciate in detail some things that are difficult to generalize that are difficult for ordinary people to perceive.
A certain decision was gradually finalized in his heart, and Yuuri, who silently admired Victor, finally made his first independent decision.
Even so, although the hesitation in his heart for dedication and courage had results, he couldn't solve his uneasy emotions.
It's an emotion that I don't know how to explain.If I have to try to express it incompletely, I can only reluctantly say that the previous discomfort is because if I can’t show the results of hard training to the audience and Victor, it will cause a kind of unwillingness and sadness. , Because of shame.After the decision was made, although this feeling was comforted, it also meant returning to the original difficult pattern of placing three quadruple jumps in the second half.
Now it's time for Yuuri to worry about whether he will succeed.
He habitually did not tell Victor about all this, including his own decision.Is it on purpose?Either yes, or no.
He just, thinking of Victor's surprised look, felt that he had some motivation.
The match is about to start soon, and Yuuri wonders if his decision was too hasty.Because it was the free skating that dominated the figure skating competition, and whether it was the short program results that made people feel like riding a tiger, or other things, Yuuri started to get nervous again after that.All a person with poor psychological quality can do is put on a straight face and pretend to be calm.
Several coaches are explaining something to their players.They very subtly just occupy one side of each other, forming a rhombus.
The announcer lady started to work without missing a beat, still with a standard and clear Japanese accent.
"It will start now, the men's single free skating competition! Please come in and practice, the practice time is 6 minutes."
At this moment, after a simple warm-up, Yuuri handed over his skate cover to Victor as usual as instructed.While the other coaches continued to tell their players this and that, Victor wanted to sigh when he saw Yuuri's forced facial muscles.
It's impossible to go on like this!
This understanding was finally fully formed when Nan contestant clenched his fist at Yuuri to cheer and was also a little sad because of his low mood.To be honest, Viktor was very uncomfortable with Nan Kenjiro's almost obsessive vision of Yuuri, and his expression changed slightly.But at such a critical time, other things in the heart need to make concessions for the state adjustment.He knew that this situation was obviously Yuuri's downturn, and even the cheerful and lively Minami Kenjiro was affected.
Yuuri, who was walking step by step towards the ice rink, didn't see Viktor's movements behind him.This was Victor's usual small movement when he was in deep thought. His right hand lightly tapped his chin, and his eyes narrowed slightly.Victor seemed to have made a decision, he sighed, and decided to see Yuuri's performance in practice.
"No, no, no. You have to concentrate and only think about yourself!" the Japanese youth skating into the ice rink said to himself after hearing the noise in his head.
If compared to any previous season, Yuuri is almost mentally better.Even the fact that I am no longer nervous enough to tremble, but that I am more restless is a great improvement.However, in Victor's view, to win the Grand Prix, such a psychological quality is not enough, it can even be said that it is far from enough!
If the method can be changed appropriately, can it be taken a step forward?
Victor hoped his next thought wasn't wrong.
The noisy voices were still filling his ears. Victor listened to the sound of the ice blade sliding across the ice, and he let out a heavy snort.Carefully consider the size.
When Yuuri slid back with a small face still on his face, he sensitively noticed that there was something wrong with Victor lying on the side.
"Yuuri!" He had never heard Victor call his name so plainly.
Yuuri didn't know how to respond.Only after he said "um", the voice of his own coach came to his ears. "A person who can't even mobilize the enthusiasm of others, will he be motivated?" Victor just turned his head, and didn't even change his posture of supporting the table with one hand.
This kind of Victor who had never appeared before made Yuuri uneasy for a moment. Victor had never blamed him with such a deadpan attitude, not to mention that the silver-haired man slammed his skates hard after saying this. The set was shot in front of Yuuri.
"I'm really disappointed in Yuuri..." Victor dropped this sentence, picked up the Makachin paper box and left.He knew that for Yuuri, his approval was very important.
That's a bit too heavy a word, Victor thought to himself.
Yuuri froze in place, missing the almost imperceptible sense of uncertainty and awkwardness at the end of Viktor's last sentence.Similarly, the sound of his leaving footsteps is not as calm as your first impression when you hear it.
Because Victor actually knows that Yuuri is a player who gets stronger when he encounters a strong one.But such excellent traits appeared in a person in contradiction with his sensitive and weak personality.This is a bit difficult to handle.It is necessary to stimulate Yuuri's state, but not exceed his tolerance limit, but it is still difficult to grasp what this limit is.
Originally, before the game, he didn't think to use this method just this time, but Yuuri's enthusiasm today and the fact that he would actually affect others prompted Victor to make a hasty decision.Although he can tell that Yuuri himself is not that nervous, figure skating is a sport that pays attention to interaction with the audience.In other words, if you can't mobilize the enthusiasm of others, then even if you are calm, you can't have a good grade.Victor is well aware of this.
While walking away, Victor heard Yuuri whispering, "What should I do when Victor has reduced my enthusiasm to the bottom, hey!"
Now he finally felt relieved.Because from the sound of complaints, Victor can judge that he didn't really hit Yuuri. After more than half a year, Victor has mastered the rules. If he really hit, then Yuuri will just keep silent, It's as quiet as if it doesn't exist.Instead of complaining helplessly and somewhat aggrieved like now.
Facts have proved that this time Victor's feeling is not wrong.Even though Yuuri said that, he was already beginning to realize the problem.
When the player information was being announced, Yuuri got up and walked into the waiting room.
One was Kenjiro Minami, who belonged to the Hakata Skating Club, and his coach was busy waving in front of his eyes.
"Did you hear that?" Xiaonan's coach was a lovely lady, and his voice drifted into Yuuri's ears just like that. "Are you too nervous? I said Xiaonan..."
Yuuri turned his head and heard the sweet voices of the girls cheering for Nan.It turned out that he really made Xiaonan nervous!He thought he understood what Victor was up to.Recalling Konan excitedly and energetically saying "Yuuri's black history doesn't exist at all, please don't take me as a fool for chasing Yuuri all the time?" Yuuri watched him trembling on the ice rink He continued to take a deep breath, and just about to push open the door in front of him, he suddenly turned around.
He raised his hands around his mouth to make a trumpet shape, and regardless of whether he and he were still rivals in the same field, he just shouted "Come on, Xiao Nan, come on...Come on!"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Yuuri, but he didn't care about it, and kept shouting loudly.
It goes without saying that Nan Kenjiro heard such a loud voice clearly.His eyes widened in surprise for a moment, and his heart began to get excited, and even the lock of red hair was flying extraordinarily because of the sudden good mood.He exaggeratedly covered his face with his hands, um, what does a Chinese idiom say?
Oh yes!It's called "Weeping with Joy"!
The author has something to say:
Be obedient and come again~
Quickly praise Jian Luoluo~~~
Please try to leave a message after reading~
Jian Luoluo is very teasing~
"That's right, Victor is the highest scorer in the world and he's even reached the 100th level several times!" Yuuri's expression was indescribable as he was helpless with his coach.Victor, who seemed to have heard nothing, quickly changed the subject.
As he spoke, he turned around holding his Makachin cardboard box, trying to face Yuuri, "By the way, Yuuri, about tomorrow's free skate," Yuuri could only force the "囧" facial expression back normal.
As soon as he got serious, Victor quickly pulled the two paws of Makachin's paper box and held them up in front of him, and waved cutely at Yuuri twice, "I hope you can reduce the difficulty of jumping, and then concentrate on the performance."
Yuuri didn't recover all of a sudden, he was slightly stunned.
"Even in practice, you haven't succeeded from beginning to end, have you?" Victor was still straightforward. "But..." Yuuri didn't want to just give up.This is the first time he has shown this piece of music in front of everyone.It's all about his music, and Yuuri doesn't know how much he wants to present a complimented, different, stronger version of himself in the first place.If the difficulty is lowered, what can this be counted as?
However, Victor was obviously not ready to let go, and he explained his reasons in full next.Victor continued to wave the cute paper box with a smile, "It's not a bad thing to drop the difficulty at the beginning of the season!" During the detailed analysis, he took a few more steps in Yuuri's direction, forcing Yuuri to subconsciously go step back. "For Yuuri, the most important thing is to adjust to the best state according to the time of the Grand Prix final!"
The silver-haired Russian coach hit the crux of the problem.Yuuri, who was not very assertive in the first place, already started to waver when he heard this sentence.Victor is right!In such a state, is it okay to be conservative as long as the score is not too low?What if something happens because of a quadruple jump?Seems like it would be nice to still be able to enter the sub-station, right?Why force it this time?
Yuuri was going to listen to Victor.
But what really made Yuuri stop insisting was Victor's words.Victor stared at him deeply with the expression he showed at the edge of the ice rink, "Aren't you going to listen to the coach?" After speaking, he imitated two Makachin-style calls pitifully.
There was an announcement outside that the next contestant, Akira Fujiwara, would be on the stage, and Yuuri responded with a low voice.He literally gave up.Forget it, it’s good to get the first place, why do I still pursue to perform the best [YURIONICE]?

"Did Yuuri see Lohengrin in my performance?" Xiao Nan looked forward to it.
Yuuri, who had just reacted from the topic with Victor just now, turned his head blankly, "Ah, I didn't see it in the interview just now, sorry!"
Victor also turned his head back, looking at Kenjiro Minami expressionlessly.
The little boy was extremely disappointed, he seemed so annoyed that he was about to burst into tears, he stared at Yuuri with a heart-shattering expression, "Yuuri's representative program, Lohengrin, even made costumes like that to show respect!"
Someone unzips his jacket and shows it to Yuuri.
As soon as Yuuri saw that this was obviously exactly the same as his back then, the whole body was shining with gold, a big cross was drawn from the shoulders to the waist, and the feather-like hem was wrapped around the waist like an Indian, all of a sudden he didn't care about anything else.

Tomorrow's free skate, I will I will try my best to skate, and Yuuri, please try my best to have a showdown with me!" Kenjiro Minami seemed to have an afternoon call, "If I let the water go, I won't give up!"
Viktor's expression became serious, Minami Kenjiro said, will Yuuri... There is a small worry that is fleeting.
Xiao Nan's indignant look really surprised Yuuri, but Yuuri also felt that something important seemed to be grasped in his mind.But now, he has no time to care about these things, because on the one hand, Mr. Moroka began to summarize the scene just now as "the challenge declaration of the South player" in order to increase the point of view.

Zhuoka anchor said in the preparation room, "Everyone is paying attention to Yuri Katsuki and his coach Victor Nikiforov. In yesterday's In the short program, with his best score of 94.36 points, he ranked first far ahead of other players."

And Yuuri just prepared silently, ignoring the introduction to himself in his ear.
Feeling a bit flat?Seems to be down?Victor felt something.
Moroka's voice was still coming, "It is said that in today's free skating, there will be three quadruple jumps!" Hearing this sentence, Yuuri's eyebrows furrowed slightly.Although I have never raised this question again, and I have approved Victor's strategy in my heart, I am not very reconciled, right?Yuuri continued to tie the shoelace on the other foot, "Although Victor said to reduce the difficulty, change it to only one quadruple..."
At this moment, the three of them, Nan Kenjiro and Fujiwara Akira, heard Moroka's introduction.
"Quadruple jump, I will also challenge today!" Xiaonan's high morale words caught Yuuri's attention.He raised his head to look at the three boys who were a few years younger than him not far away.
Onishi Yu was straightforward, and asked in surprise, "Really, didn't you succeed in practice?" The dark coffee-colored hair swayed in disbelief.
Yuuri's cold sweat that was streaming down was ignored by him at this moment.The only thing in my mind is - "Didn't you also fail when you practiced?"
That’s right, so far Axel’s triple axel jump has not surpassed [-]% chance of success, so how could the quadruple jump be successful?
But what did Xiaonan say?Ah, yes, he said that today he will also challenge the quadruple jump!Moreover, with his lead, Fujiwara and Onishi will also try quadruple jumps.
why?
Why?
Nan Jianjiro, don't they want to represent the country in the Grand Prix?Obviously impossible.But why is he willing to make such an apparently impossible attempt?Even Xiao Nan, who is just a child in his eyes, can do this, so...
Yuuri didn't want to hesitate.
He knew that Victor was doing it for his own good. Victor had been doing his best to bring himself closer to the gold medal in the grand prix, and he often saw Victor rubbing between his brows with a slightly pale complexion.However, Yuuri also knew that from his own perspective, if he really gave up the difficulty of free skating this time as he said, it would be a disappointment to this man's dedication all the time.

Even so, although the hesitation in his heart for dedication and courage had results, he couldn't solve his uneasy emotions.
It's an emotion that I don't know how to explain.If I have to try to express it incompletely, I can only reluctantly say that the previous discomfort is because if I can’t show the results of hard training to the audience and Victor, it will cause a kind of unwillingness and sadness. , Because of shame.After the decision was made, although this feeling was comforted, it also meant returning to the original difficult pattern of placing three quadruple jumps in the second half.
Now it's time for Yuuri to worry about whether he will succeed.
He habitually did not tell Victor about all this, including his own decision.Is it on purpose?Either yes, or no.
He just, thinking of Victor's surprised look, felt that he had some motivation.
The match is about to start soon, and Yuuri wonders if his decision was too hasty.Because it was the free skating that dominated the figure skating competition, and whether it was the short program results that made people feel like riding a tiger, or other things, Yuuri started to get nervous again after that.All a person with poor psychological quality can do is put on a straight face and pretend to be calm.
Several coaches are explaining something to their players.They very subtly just occupy one side of each other, forming a rhombus.
The announcer lady started to work without missing a beat, still with a standard and clear Japanese accent.
"It will start now, the men's single free skating competition! Please come in and practice, the practice time is 6 minutes."
At this moment, after a simple warm-up, Yuuri handed over his skate cover to Victor as usual as instructed.While the other coaches continued to tell their players this and that, Victor wanted to sigh when he saw Yuuri's forced facial muscles.
It's impossible to go on like this!
This understanding was finally fully formed when Nan contestant clenched his fist at Yuuri to cheer and was also a little sad because of his low mood.To be honest, Viktor was very uncomfortable with Nan Kenjiro's almost obsessive vision of Yuuri, and his expression changed slightly.But at such a critical time, other things in the heart need to make concessions for the state adjustment.He knew that this situation was obviously Yuuri's downturn, and even the cheerful and lively Minami Kenjiro was affected.
Yuuri, who was walking step by step towards the ice rink, didn't see Viktor's movements behind him.This was Victor's usual small movement when he was in deep thought. His right hand lightly tapped his chin, and his eyes narrowed slightly.Victor seemed to have made a decision, he sighed, and decided to see Yuuri's performance in practice.
"No, no, no. You have to concentrate and only think about yourself!" the Japanese youth skating into the ice rink said to himself after hearing the noise in his head.
If compared to any previous season, Yuuri is almost mentally better.Even the fact that I am no longer nervous enough to tremble, but that I am more restless is a great improvement.However, in Victor's view, to win the Grand Prix, such a psychological quality is not enough, it can even be said that it is far from enough!
If the method can be changed appropriately, can it be taken a step forward?
Victor hoped his next thought wasn't wrong.
The noisy voices were still filling his ears. Victor listened to the sound of the ice blade sliding across the ice, and he let out a heavy snort.Carefully consider the size.
When Yuuri slid back with a small face still on his face, he sensitively noticed that there was something wrong with Victor lying on the side.
"Yuuri!" He had never heard Victor call his name so plainly.
Yuuri didn't know how to respond.Only after he said "um", the voice of his own coach came to his ears. "A person who can't even mobilize the enthusiasm of others, will he be motivated?" Victor just turned his head, and didn't even change his posture of supporting the table with one hand.
This kind of Victor who had never appeared before made Yuuri uneasy for a moment. Victor had never blamed him with such a deadpan attitude, not to mention that the silver-haired man slammed his skates hard after saying this. The set was shot in front of Yuuri.
"I'm really disappointed in Yuuri..." Victor dropped this sentence, picked up the Makachin paper box and left.He knew that for Yuuri, his approval was very important.
That's a bit too heavy a word, Victor thought to himself.
Yuuri froze in place, missing the almost imperceptible sense of uncertainty and awkwardness at the end of Viktor's last sentence.Similarly, the sound of his leaving footsteps is not as calm as your first impression when you hear it.
Because Victor actually knows that Yuuri is a player who gets stronger when he encounters a strong one.But such excellent traits appeared in a person in contradiction with his sensitive and weak personality.This is a bit difficult to handle.It is necessary to stimulate Yuuri's state, but not exceed his tolerance limit, but it is still difficult to grasp what this limit is.
Originally, before the game, he didn't think to use this method just this time, but Yuuri's enthusiasm today and the fact that he would actually affect others prompted Victor to make a hasty decision.Although he can tell that Yuuri himself is not that nervous, figure skating is a sport that pays attention to interaction with the audience.In other words, if you can't mobilize the enthusiasm of others, then even if you are calm, you can't have a good grade.Victor is well aware of this.
While walking away, Victor heard Yuuri whispering, "What should I do when Victor has reduced my enthusiasm to the bottom, hey!"
Now he finally felt relieved.Because from the sound of complaints, Victor can judge that he didn't really hit Yuuri. After more than half a year, Victor has mastered the rules. If he really hit, then Yuuri will just keep silent, It's as quiet as if it doesn't exist.Instead of complaining helplessly and somewhat aggrieved like now.
Facts have proved that this time Victor's feeling is not wrong.Even though Yuuri said that, he was already beginning to realize the problem.
When the player information was being announced, Yuuri got up and walked into the waiting room.
One was Kenjiro Minami, who belonged to the Hakata Skating Club, and his coach was busy waving in front of his eyes.
"Did you hear that?" Xiaonan's coach was a lovely lady, and his voice drifted into Yuuri's ears just like that. "Are you too nervous? I said Xiaonan..."
Yuuri turned his head and heard the sweet voices of the girls cheering for Nan.It turned out that he really made Xiaonan nervous!He thought he understood what Victor was up to.Recalling Konan excitedly and energetically saying "Yuuri's black history doesn't exist at all, please don't take me as a fool for chasing Yuuri all the time?" Yuuri watched him trembling on the ice rink He continued to take a deep breath, and just about to push open the door in front of him, he suddenly turned around.
He raised his hands around his mouth to make a trumpet shape, and regardless of whether he and he were still rivals in the same field, he just shouted "Come on, Xiao Nan, come on...Come on!"
Everyone turned their heads to look at Yuuri, but he didn't care about it, and kept shouting loudly.
It goes without saying that Nan Kenjiro heard such a loud voice clearly.His eyes widened in surprise for a moment, and his heart began to get excited, and even the lock of red hair was flying extraordinarily because of the sudden good mood.He exaggeratedly covered his face with his hands, um, what does a Chinese idiom say?
Oh yes!It's called "Weeping with Joy"!
