[Tennis] Mountains and Flowing Water

After a week or two of getting along with each other, the class has more or less formed its own small group.A friend group where two or three people can talk, a group formed naturally by academic masters, a discussion group for girls with similar interests, a group for boys with sports hobbies or games, and so on.There are unions and intersections, and there are separate individuals.

Xu You is one of them. Etiquette, dress, manner and speech make him get along like a Kyoto person.His character is indeed gentle, not approachable, nor is he kind with aloof arrogance.It's like the green leaves in the bushes peeping at the tall and straight green bamboos. They are at different levels, so they always have some respect when they get along.This also seems to be an unconscious soft isolation.

There are also isolated beings.It is usually caused by the defect of not conforming to the trend of the personality, such as taciturn and ignorant, or the demeanor looks gloomy and terrifying, or the appearance, words and deeds are not very appreciable.The exceptions are mostly rumors, such as single parents, bad records in the family, and some negative rumors, which give teenagers and girls the impression that this person is not worthy of friendship.

What's more, the two are mixed together, and the black ink is poured on the white paper, so that it is stained black but there is nowhere to wash it. If there is any, there will always be some stains no matter how you wash it.

There are two of them in class B. Takei sits at the back of the aisle. Because of his introverted personality, he discourages many girls who want to communicate, and they are ignored by the group. Sugizaki sits in the middle, with his head down, so he can’t see clearly. The expression under the bangs, the dress is very conservative, and the class performance is poor, giving people a dark and cowardly personality.

There are many people in the class who have a good impression of Xu You. Xu You is also a single parent, but his upbringing is outstanding, so he looks down on high and low.Among the girls' popular group are two teenagers who are responsible for sports and fashion trends-Marui Bunta and Nioh Masaharu who have joined the tennis club.Both of them have dyed hair, a head of red hair and a head of silvery bluish loose hair put together, and with their good looks, they are quite eye-catching.The boys said it didn't matter, and the two were still competitors.

Niwang is very interested in Xu You, he looks at the window whenever he has nothing to do, and exploring the secret is an interesting process.

"Hey, Nioh, are you listening to me?"

"what?"

"Freshman selection, freshman selection!"

"What is there to talk about?"

"Only after qualifying can you participate in the quasi-regular selection."

"Things based on strength, can you tell me it is useful?" Niwang patted Marui's upper arm, and pouted in the direction of Xu You, "Puri, do you know the origin of this person?"

"Shenmu-kun?" Marui replied in a low voice, "I don't know, but he also plays tennis." The tennis bag was obvious.

"Everyone knows this." Nioh rolled Marui's eyes and said quietly, "I saw him walking with Yukimura-kun yesterday."

"Lucky!..." Marui covered his mouth and lay down on the table, "Then why doesn't he come to the tennis club?"

"Puri." That's why I was curious.

"So he should be good at tennis too?"

"probably."

"I can't imagine him running on the court at all. I thought he was learning tea ceremony, calligraphy or something."

[I heard it, Marui-kun. ] Xu You reluctantly closed the pen cap and looked out the window. [Everyone has a deep misunderstanding. ] Similar discussions were not limited to Nioh and Marui this time, but no one really came to ask: Does Shenmu-kun play tennis?Is it great?such as.

[I have to get up early tomorrow to take Kanggong to the beach. ]

The president of the cooking club is Kusuda, a third-year senior from junior high school, and as Yukimura expected, there are girls in the cooking club. Xu You didn't expect to be so exaggerated, he was the only boy.

The cooking club does not come every day, but only three days out of five study days a week.

Miwako Sakagami of class B is also in the cooking club. She is a bright and outgoing girl, but she may occasionally behave more rudely because of her family's favor.The two are in the same class, so there is something to talk about in the cooking club with dozens of people, and it also helps Xu You to eliminate the embarrassment and faint rejection of "a grass among a hundred flowers".

On this golden day, the dough made by Sakagami and Xu You was in the oven, and they chatted during the waiting time: "Why did Mr. Shenmu report to the cooking club? Is it because father doesn't cook?"

"No." Xu You didn't care about Sakagami's "straightforwardness", and explained, "I need to adjust my diet, some things are not easy to eat, so..."

"Eh? Why?"

"This... has some impact on the figure." Xu You tried his best to adjust his wording.

"Haha, Mr. Shenmu also cares about his figure?"

"That's right."

He typically bakes granola or low-fat muffins.Now that the amount of training has increased and the proportion of practice matches has increased, three meals a day are not enough, and two extra meals will be added from time to time in the morning and afternoon to supply sugar.It is said to be an extra meal, but in fact it is only a few biscuits or bread. Each meal is relatively small, and at most seven percent full will not be eaten.

Saying goodbye to Takazaki and Jiang Chuan, Xu You walked on the street illuminated by the setting sun.

Today, sister Najin once again expressed doubts about him not participating in the men's singles competition. From everyone's point of view, Xu You's official competition experience is almost zero. They don't know that Xu You has accumulated 30 years of experience in the world battlefield. The only flaw is his body Instinctive cognition of the official game.Xu You has already made arrangements for this.

Shenmu went home early on Golden Day, bought some fresh aquatic products and cooked them in the kitchen, leaving most of them in the refrigerator.Occasionally, Xu You would make some dishes by himself that were different from the Japanese taste. Shenmu tasted quite satisfactory, and he praised it repeatedly. Xu You didn't know whether it was a parent-child filter or the one he made really tasted like Shenmu.

Based on past experience, parent-child filters account for a larger proportion.Xu You is not the God of Cookery, he himself tasted the taste, not as wonderful as Shenmu boasted.

Shenmu has already prepared for the transfer. He is currently searching Section [-] of the Criminal Department of the Kanagawa headquarters. He will not come back on weekdays, but he will definitely find time to return to Shenmu's house on weekends.It has been nearly a month since middle school started, and he is a little worried about Xu You.It's not that he's afraid of his son being slapped or something, but cold violence is more hurtful in a sense.His son is an adopted son and a single parent, so some people may gossip behind his back because they don't want to see his excellence.

"How have you been with everyone this week?"

"pretty good."

"If you are wronged, go home and tell your dad, dad will find a way, the big deal is to transfer to another school."

"No problem." Xu You felt that Shenmu was too nervous, his nerves were very tough, not so fragile, "Besides, I am lucky that the village master is here."

"Hmm..." Shenmu was a little pantothenic, feeling that his role was not as good as that of the village.

Xu You was invited by Xingcun to watch the competition in Kanagawa County.When he arrived, the tennis team had already prepared a team for the correct selection by the side of the court.

Seeing the familiar white/tennis suit, Yukimura smiled and waved: "You-kun."

Immediately, the candidates' eyes focused on Xu You, with curiosity and surprise.Yukimura rarely has this attitude towards people.

Xu You walked down the stairs of Lihai Watching Seat: "Xingmura-kun, I've been waiting for a long time."

"I'll go to the coach's bench later." Yukimura glanced lightly at the people who were standing still, and then everyone went about their own tasks as if waking up from a dream, "You-kun, just watch here, the view is pretty good. "

"Okay." The two sat down side by side as usual, Xu You glanced around, "The morale is high."

"It's just a county competition. Lihai's complete victory is not a problem." Yukimura pulled back his coat, "I wonder if You-kun is interested in taking this opportunity to evaluate our quasi-selection level?"

"I will," Xu You took out a pen and paper from his tennis bag, "Speaking of Yukimura-kun's coat?"

"Hehe." Yukimura lowered his voice and looked mysterious, "It took me a lot of effort."

"Great."

"I accept it."

Marui sneaked a peek at the interaction between the two figures, Huang and Bai, on the next step, and pulled Nioh's clothes: "They are very involved in talking, what's the relationship?"

"I don't know, you ask him." Nioh patted Marui's hand away and pointed at Sanada.

Marui didn't go, but Liu went to ask immediately: "Sanada, is that Kamiki-kun?"

"Ah." Sanada nodded, "I often play with Yukimura."

"Shen Muyou, a member of the STC club, but he has never appeared in an official game." Liu thought for a while, and planned to collect his information intensively.Looking at the interaction between Yukimura and Xu You, Liu believes that Xu You has a 96.9% probability of being extremely high.

Vice Minister Fujiwara is also very interested in Xu You: "Is that Shenmu-kun? Has Sanada-kun ever played against him?"

"No." Sanada replied simply, "I just met a few times occasionally."

"Mr. Shenmu, I do know."

"Guy?"

"Hexian, you know him too, Miyagawa-kun from Group D." The third-year main candidate, Fukuyama, was calm under the eyes of everyone, "He once played a concentrated exchange game with some Kanagawa players in the SCT club, and mentioned it to me. Lord Shenmu."

"Is it?"

"It is said that Lord Shenmu can beat Lord Chi."

Matsumoto, the main candidate in the third grade, was taken aback: "You mean Chi Shuanger?"

"That's right." Fukuyama continued to throw bombs, "Three sets, logically speaking, Chi Shuang'er has a great advantage, but Shenmu Jun has the last laugh."

"It's really strong." Fujiwara didn't know whether he should be happy, after all, such a player was in their high school attached to Lihai University.

"That, Chi Shuang'er?"

Matsumoto explained to Kuwahara and other elementary school students: "Chi Jun is very famous in the men's singles world, and he is already preparing for his debut as a professional player."

"A future professional player!"

"That's right." Fukuyama touched his chin, "I guess Shenmu-kun is also preparing for his future debut?"

"Occupation..." The members present were a little hard to imagine, after all, junior high school was a bit early, and most students would not really consider tennis as a future career.

In the evening, Shenmu exchanged some views with Yukimura on the day's records. Yukimura sounded very concerned about Xu You's opinion. The two talked very carefully. Before they knew it, more than an hour passed. Yukimura looked up at the wall clock, intending to end the conversation.

[By the way, will Yu-kun come to watch the Kanto Competition and the National Competition? 】

[It depends on the time and venue. I have already made an appointment with Sister Natsu and the others to watch the performance of the Kanto Youth Tennis Competition. Sister Natsu and Egawa-san should also have places in the National Competition. I don’t know if it will conflict with the team competition. 】

[So that's the case, then we will make an appointment at that time. 】

[Okay, if I have time, I will definitely watch it. 】

[Well, goodbye. 】

Same impression as Xu You, Yukimura is very concerned about the tennis club, he has already begun to take responsibility.This makes Xu You feel distressed. When the group occupies too much proportion, the personal state of mind will improve in this state, but it is difficult to make a qualitative change.Maybe Yukimura will be stuck in his bottleneck period in the next three years.

However, even Yukimura in the bottleneck period is enough to disdain a large number of amateur players.

[This is Yukimura Seichi, right? ] The one who cherishes the Tennis Club of the High School Affiliated to Lihai University and regards its honor more important than life, Minister.

The author has something to say:

----------

Q: Do you usually read novels?

Yu: I don't have time to play tennis.

Xing: I don’t have time now, maybe I will use it for entertainment in the future?
