[Comprehensive] The Light Chaser

What does a partner mean, and what does a doubles mean?

At the beginning, I chose to specialize in doubles, just because of my lack of personal strength.He hasn't practiced tennis for long, but he wants to get a first-choice position in Lihai University, and he wants to become the top player in the middle school tennis world with his teammates.At that time, his singles strength was too insufficient, or his shortcomings were too obvious.He couldn't get a stable singles position, so he chose to work hard in doubles.

At that time, for him, a partner half meant a partner, and half only meant a step up.Therefore, the partner he chooses will be a comrade-in-arms and an "enemy" who is most suitable for motivating him to move forward.

And now?

Nioh opened the door of the room.

He raised his eyebrows at the people outside the door, feeling that this scene had a weird sense of dislocation.

"What do you need from me?" He asked, "Or did you come to see Senior Byodoin?"

"Do you have time for a chat?" the person outside the door asked.

King Ren looked at the exquisite face of the person outside the door, and pinched his braid with his backhand: "Okay."

The game against Greece in the morning was out of control from the first game.

In the second half, he insisted on carrying the big rock of the opponent's "attack" by himself, and used this kind of alternative psychological tactics to break the heart of the pitiful player on the opponent's heart.

Yukimura told Marui that this is also a kind of mental attack.

"Oishi may not have calculated carefully, but his conditioned reflex just happened to achieve the best results." Yukimura commented.

And the doubles between Tono and Kirihara seemed to be evidence of Yukimura's theory.

Seemingly losing his mind, Tono dealt with his opponents unceremoniously, and even "punished" his teammates with the criminal law.

And his opponents, two brothers who claimed to be from a family of Greek executioners, dealt with him more cruelly.

When a person's will prevails over external comments and likes and dislikes, then the law he follows must be a consistent and unchangeable belief for him.

Probably everyone in the training camp held a respectful attitude towards Tohno.

Even his trusted partner uses the junior high school student whom he only met for the first time to betray him.

But Tono isn't swayed by that when he's on the court.

His punishment method is not simply violent tennis.

Niwang closed his eyes.

The lights in the hotel corridors are a bit harsh.But it's not so much the physiological glare, it's better to say that the impact given to him in the first game of the World Cup is stronger than imagined.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

The person walking two steps ahead of him snorted softly, "Gym."

Nioh raised his eyebrows, wanting to talk in the gym?

The gym at night is pretty deserted.It's past the point of exercising, and most of the people who have experienced a day of competition are still resting, or going to the infirmary to accompany several injured companions.

Atobe turned on all the lights in the gym and went to the innermost part.

There is a boxing area with sandbags hanging from it.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk about." Nioh leaned on the pillars of the square field, "Or is Master Atobe planning to invite me to play doubles again?"

Atobe frowned because of the description "young master".

He glanced at Nioh: "You can probably guess the order of appearance tomorrow."

When returning to the hotel at the end of the game, the coach of the three boats announced the list of the next day's match with Australia.

The main player is Jujiro Oni, and the rest of the players are all junior high school students: Keigo Atobe, Seiichi Yukimura, Genichiro Sanada, Kintaro Toyama, Masaharu Nioh, Shusuke Fuji, Keigo Atobe.

Such a list can't match up any refreshing combination.

As the main player, Gui will not fail to stay in the singles position, and unless he loses the first two games, he will only be in the singles position.As for doubles, Xiao Jin can't play doubles.

The rest are free to match.

But being able to match freely does not mean that the order of appearance can be drawn directly.How far the overall quality of junior high school students is from the world level can be seen from the daytime games.The junior high school students who played in the two doubles games did not play a big role: Oishi's psychological tactics were somewhat erroneous, and the principle of cutting was simply cleared out of the game by Tono not long after the start of the game. The save part of the last two goals was left behind.

That being the case, the order of doubles appearances needs to be carefully considered.

"I guess Sanada and Yukimura will play in doubles." Nioh didn't shy away from saying, "But it's not necessarily true. The coach's consideration may have a tacit understanding, but in my case, I will also partner with you, Sanada, and Yukimura. pass."

"You don't consider the possibility of playing alone?" Atobe raised his eyebrows.

King Ren was a little surprised.

But before he opened his mouth, Atobe followed his own words and said: "Indeed, in doubles, your control ability can be well exerted. But at the same time, your strength in singles cannot be used in doubles." show it fully?"

Nioh didn't want to admit it, but he couldn't deny it either.

His mood suddenly changed.

It's okay for Yukimura to tell him this kind of thing over and over again, why does Atobu also come?

"I only think about it from the perspective of statistics." He said, "Compared to me, you, Yukimura and Sanada have a higher probability of singles than me."

"That's not necessarily true." Atobe folded his arms and suddenly smiled meaningfully, "This is your own opinion. But what do you think the coaches of the national team think of you? Irie-senpai, even if you can face-to-face with Byodoin-senpai? You don’t think the coaches didn’t know about the match between you and Byodoin-senpai?”

"In the middle of the night..."

"Both Yukimura and I saw it."

Nioh was speechless.

He took two deep breaths, trying not to get angry on the spot, but his face sank: "Are you here to find fault?"

"My uncle is just here to confirm." Atobe said.

He lifted his chin and leaned back, standing against the hanging sandbag: "This is just an opening remark."

Nioh: "..."

"My uncle and your opinion are actually similar." Atobe said, "Oni-senpai and Xiaojin are singles, and Sanada and Yukimura have a high possibility of doubles. Of course you and I formed a doubles team in the training camp, but at that time Coordination is actually quite rough. After all, there is a gap between 'ability resonance' and 'coordination', for doubles."

"Do you think the possibility of me playing doubles with you is lower than the possibility of me playing doubles with Buer?"

"This is the most possible order of appearance. Sanada and Yukimura play doubles, you play doubles with Fuji, and I play singles. There are also several ways to form a team, such as you and Sanada doubles, then I play with Fuji, and I play with Yukimura. Sex is about the same. And you and Yukimura doubles..." Atobe paused, "It's a good combination in theory, but Coach Mifune probably won't arrange it this way."

Their head coach has an unfathomable part, and the way of team formation also has fixed rules.Nioh and Yukimura's spiritual attacks overlap, and they can achieve 11>3 or even>5 effects when facing certain types of players.But in the group stage, the data is not perfect enough, so such a match is considered a waste.

Nioh agrees with Atobe's judgment.

"I hope to create an accident within a limited possibility." Atobe said.

Nioh pondered over the words "creating accidents".

"You mean..." He looked at Atobe, and paused for a moment with the hand holding his braid.

"That's right." Atobe nodded, "My uncle thinks that Senior Taneshima's game in the morning is a good reference."

He was almost defeated by the opponent's seamless control, but he chose to give up a part of the dominance and use his basic skills to control an uncontrollable style of play.

bottle cap?

What kind of idea is this?

If you say it out, you will be ridiculed as "unprofessional", but it is the least costly and most likely way to break the deadlock.

And he did.

But if you use this morning's game as a comparison...

"You have information on Australia."

Atobe responded: "I have."

King Ren raised his eyebrows: "Do you have a grudge against Australia?"

"I can't say there is any grudge." Atobe snorted softly, "It's just that I met a person who was not gorgeous in the team."

He lost to Tezuka in the warm-up match, and he left the game early to relax with some depression.I just met when I was in England... barely a friend.There is nothing to reminisce about the past, but information can be exchanged.

It's just that before he got to the point, the Australian player who appeared suddenly without grace disrupted his plan.

In the previous year, when the results of the previous few years were not satisfactory, he was still so arrogant...

What about this guy's reliance?

What is Australia's secret?

Atobe handed Nio a few pieces of paper: "My uncle's materials are very expensive."

"Now you are asking me for help." King Ni took it and said a word.

Atobe snorted and said, "Looking for help? No, I'm just looking for the most suitable partner."

"Like last time you just wanted to find a partner in Lihai's uniform?"

"Yeah, this time, I just want to find a partner with the ability of 'Phantom'."

Nioh and Atobe looked at each other.

This is not a confrontation, and the tone of verbal communication is also ridiculed.

But they do compete with each other.

Nioh looked down at the information, and Atobe seemed to have noticed something, changed his posture and leaned against the sandbag, and said casually, "Nio, do you prefer doubles to singles?"

Nioh paused when he turned the page.

"But in doubles, there are not many people who can cooperate with you." Atobe is not polite, "Or, there are not many people who can cooperate with you under normal performance."

"You are the minister of the Ice Empress, so don't overdo it."

"That means Yukimura has already said something similar to you."

Yes, he had said it a few times a year in advance, and he thought there was nothing wrong with it, but he was a little concerned today.

"What are you afraid of?" Atobe asked.

King Ren finished reading all the materials, and looked up at him with his back slightly arched. His eyes were a little cold: "Afraid? You used the wrong adjective."

Atobe looked at Nioh with interest for a few seconds.

He took the materials that King Ren handed back again: "Remember to prepare in advance tomorrow."

"Do you need me to provide wigs and cosmetics?" Nioh smirked at Atobe, "You still can't use 'Phantom' without any trace. Foreign objects are a good help."

"Ah." Atobe narrowed his eyes slightly.

He did not refute Nioh's statement that "the phantom cannot be used without a trace", but refolded a few pieces of paper: "My uncle will give you the answer when he arrives at the competition venue. You can bring the props first."
