[Comprehensive] The Light Chaser

Yukimura's training volume was only reduced by two days.He resumed his daily training on the third day.Basic swing, and subsequent batting practice, even practice games.

Nioh secretly paid attention to it a few times, wondering if Yukimura was trying to be brave, but every time he was found out and had to run/coach juniors/play practice games/double training.He wondered if it was possible, right?My observation skills are not weak?Why is it found every time?

Yukimura: Smile without saying a word.

Can be found at that time because of special attention.Nioh's unreasonable worry made Yukimura a little puzzled.It's good to be cared about, but he doesn't think he needs undue care.

It's just a cold.He thought that sweating more and metabolizing more would make him heal faster.

Turning his head, he saw Nioh holding a racket and saying something to the two juniors.

The corner of his mouth couldn't help but bring a little smile.

In Lihai University, as much strength as you have, you have to bear as much responsibility.

After the game that he didn't expect during the holiday, he had the idea of ​​letting Nioh take the stage.With that kind of strength, it would be too wasteful to be just an "ordinary doubles player".

At first, he was also worried about whether Nioh's unfriendly attitude and willful behavior would make the situation out of control, but after school started, he found that Nioh had changed subtly.In terms of aura, and in dealing with people.A few months ago, someone who was still childish seems to have grown a lot overnight. It would seem strange to say that he has become mature, but Yukimura can really feel the difference.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for Lihai University Tennis Club.

What Yukimura could see in his eyes was not only the victory in front of him.From the very beginning, what he wanted to win was not just a championship, but a dynasty.In the process of establishing a dynasty, what needs to be paid, sacrificed, and considered has all been included in the category of what he should do.

He thinks that Nioh is more valuable playing singles, and also thinks that Nioh can make more contributions to the tennis team, so that's what he asked for.As for whether Niwang himself is willing, this is not within his consideration.Unwillingness can also become willingness, Yukimura believes in his own means.

When he turned around to continue practicing, the hand holding the racket suddenly went numb.He frowned and rubbed his wrist, wondering if it was calcium deficiency recently?Cramping and numbness...it would be nice to grow a little taller.

Thinking of this, Yukimura shook his hand.

The fact that Nioh began to guide the first-year students was of course noticed by others.

Facing the other people he found, Yukimura responded in different ways.

He told Sanada about the fight with Nioh, without details.

"He has already mastered the first two of the three extremes of the no-self realm." Yukimura said.

Sanada looked surprised: "When?!"

"Ah, I want to ask this question too, but I guess I won't get an answer." Yukimura smiled, "But it's a good thing, isn't it?"

Sanada raised his hand and pressed the brim of his hat.He knew what Yukimura was talking about, but this kind of thing...

"Anyway, the next main selection will be held in a few days. I'll put you in a group with Nioh? I asked him if he wanted to fight with you, but he refused." Yukimura suggested fearing that the world would not be chaotic.

Sanada clenched his fists: "Too slack!"

He didn't say yes or no.

With Yanagi, Yukimura is not as deep as he said.He also remembered that King Ni's name had been on Yoo's "unable to collect data" list.He is still happy to watch such trivial matters that have nothing to do with victory or defeat.

"You need to find out the reason yourself." He smiled and said, "Lianji, the ability to collect data has declined recently?"

"But... Damn it!" Liu clenched his notebook tightly, and began to think about whether he had done too much chores recently to waste training and data collection.

Apart from Sanada and Liu, he also talked more carefully with Liu Sheng.After all, in his plan, Nioh is unlikely to have much time to train with Yagyu in doubles.

"You are improving, and he is also improving." Yukimura said, "He is no longer the person who needs to work hard in doubles to stay in the first position."

"Wait a minute, Minister, are you ruining my reputation?" Nioh almost saw Yukimura and Yagyu walking together, and hurried to catch up, fearing that Yukimura would say something that shouldn't be said, "I have no intention of abandoning my partner."

"I didn't say you were planning to abandon your partner." Yukimura laughed.

On the left side of his face was written "Are you 300 taels of silver here?" on the right side was written "Yes".

Depressed, King Ren couldn't help puffing out his cheeks.

Having seen enough excitement, Yukimura walked away slowly, leaving Nioh a little embarrassed at Yagyu.

He didn't know why he was guilty, but he was inexplicably guilty.

Seeing him like this, Liu Sheng laughed instead: "King Ren."

"Puri?"

"I will catch up with you." He said, "There is no way to share the same battlefield as a comrade-in-arms, at least as an opponent?"

This seemed to be Nio's response to Yagyu's invitation half a year ago.

King Ni opened his eyes slightly: "...wait a minute, I haven't planned to play singles just like this."

"Minister's will." Yagyu shrugged.

"Then let our doubles be stronger than singles." Nioh didn't care about anything else.He finally decided to play singles and spent so much time finding a partner to develop to this level, what a waste to give up.

"Do you know about synchronism?" he asked, "Would you like to try it?"

Liu Sheng raised his hand and pushed his glasses: "King Ren, you are really capricious. Why don't you ask if I want to play singles or doubles?"

Yeah, why?

Probably an inexplicable self-confidence, or just arrogance.

This kind of arrogance was shown so naturally by Nioh that it was often ignored, but in fact...

"I was originally an annoying person." King Ni said, "willfulness is just the basics."

This is probably not a bad breakup.

Because after teaching the first-year students, Nioh and Yagyu agreed to stay for additional training.

The tacit understanding that should be achieved in doubles can always be cultivated through time. They are now considered "not enough", just that the training time is not enough.

A few more days passed after this.

Yukimura's cold seems to have really healed, and Nioh didn't notice that he had a cough during training, and his face was healthy and ruddy.While he was relieved, he felt vaguely that he shouldn't be relieved so early.

What does it feel like?

It's a bit like drinking too much coffee and the feeling of rapid heartbeat.

but……

Puri, I have worried too much, and I have persuaded him, but the minister just doesn't go to the hospital!I thought it was just a common cold or something... Nioh was worried while feeling wronged.

He went to ask the magic knife who had taught him for a long time: "Taro-san, if there is something that you don't want to happen, but you think it will happen, what should you do?"

"Some things cannot be changed." Shendao stared at the history with a calm expression, "If you think it will happen, and you have tried to stop it but failed, just wait until it happens."

"...is it too weak?"

"Are you sure that this will happen?"

No.uncertain.Although I dreamed it, it was just...just a dream after all.But what if?Even if it's just in case...

"There is nothing that will happen in this world." The magic knife stretched out his hand, "You see, we have gone to the Ikeda house many times. Qingguang-jun and Anding-jun have also witnessed the death of Mr. Okita many times. But as a sword We do not have the right to change 'fate'. I remember you asked 'Xingjian'. If you really think that what you see is 'future'... the future can be changed.'”

"But now you are hesitating. You don't believe that what you see is the 'future', and you are not sure what you can do." Shendao put his hand on the back of Nio's hand, "If even you can't give a definite If you don't know the answer, then I can't help you."

Nioh couldn't help but clenched his fists.

On the weekend before the selection competition, Yukimura and Sanada came to the school to discuss the competition list, and Liu also participated in the meeting.Yukimura originally wanted Nioh to attend the meeting, but those who had not had much contact with non-school team members before could not express any opinions even if they participated in the meeting, and things had to be done step by step.With this in mind, Yukimura didn't speak.

He joked with Sanada two days ago that he would be in a group with Nioh, and he said it jokingly this time.

"Are you on the same team as Nioh?"

"Won't let up!"

This is the default answer, Yukimura is too familiar with Sanada.He smiled and shook his head: "You two clearly care about each other, but you refuse to admit it."

Sanada pressed the brim of his hat and did not reply.

They don't stay in school for long.Sanada has a kendo class in the afternoon, Yukimura also has an art exhibition that he wants to go to in the afternoon, and Liu Zai has no free time to teach relatives' children.

There are no people on the Haibin Road in front of the school on weekends, and the bus stop after passing the Haibin Road is a separate location.

Yukimura and Sanada walked side by side, still thinking about the game schedule that was arranged in the morning.

As a minister, he hopes to select the most likely players, so the strength of each group should be as balanced as possible.This is a test of his usual understanding of the tennis club, including what all non-school team members are good at and what they are not good at.

He scrutinized it and found nothing wrong.

"Go back and check the list, and call me if you have any questions." He said to Sanada.

After speaking, his whole body softened suddenly.

Sanada nodded.

He took two steps forward and suddenly realized something was wrong, so he turned around abruptly.

The boy in school uniform swayed twice in front of his eyes, and fell to the ground as if his whole body had lost support.

"Yukimura?!"

Nioh was the first of the remaining members to receive the news.

Sanada and Liu, who made an emergency call, followed the ambulance to the hospital.The doctors and nurses notified the parents and school teachers after the inquiry, while Sanada and Yanagi kept guarding outside the emergency room until Yukimura's parents heard the news from work.

Although I have experienced many things, such as leading a team to participate in competitions, such as following the seniors in the dojo to "catch thieves", and such as taking care of myself when my parents are busy at work, both Sanada and Liu stood at a loss when they stood in front of the hospital. .

What are they going to do?

What can they do?

"Let's inform the others first." Liu said, "Yukimura won't be able to participate in tomorrow's practice. I don't know how long he will be absent from practice."

"He'll be back soon!" Sanada retorted reflexively.

"There is a 60.00% chance that I won't be able to participate in this main selection competition." Liu said.

He was silent for a while, then took out his mobile phone: "I'll call Niwang."

"...What are you looking for?" Sanada asked, frowning.

"Yukimura said he also has decision-making power." Liu said, "Sanada, when Yukimura is not around, if we have different opinions, we will be equal."

"Yukimura will be back soon!" Sanada clenched his fists and roared.

Then he let out a long breath: "I'll notify the others."
