fox

12.

The match between Atobe and Hiyoshi was not scored, but it was Hiyoshi who stopped first.

"Sure enough, he has been secretly exercising, right?"

Xiang Ri originally thought that Hiyoshi would be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish this time, but he was still suppressed by Atobe.

When the two came up, an administrator handed them towels and cold drinks.

"... Cirou, what kind of look do you have?" Atobe was speechless when he saw the white fox on Cirou's head.

"It jumped up by itself." Cilang focused on watching the game, and he didn't realize the weight until now, his neck was numb from the pressure.

Atobe wiped his face casually with a towel, and reached out to hug the fox.

However, Nio's nose moved, and he subconsciously kicked his legs and jumped away, returning to Ninzuzu's arms.

"Hahahaha Atobe, you are actually disgusted!" Xiang Ri didn't think it was a big deal, and laughed out loud while clutching his stomach.

The others couldn't help but laugh too.

Atobe's expression froze for a moment, and he retracted his empty hands.

"Is it funny, huh?"

However, when they got up to visit the club formally, Nioh was forcibly taken back into his arms by Atobe.

After struggling for a while to no avail, he gave up.

Powerless to resist, puri.

"Hey, there..."

When he walked to the luxurious stadium in the F area, Renzu stopped.

The rest of the people were a little surprised. Following his gaze, there were two middle-aged men playing on the court.

"What's the matter, Yoshi?" Xiang Ri couldn't see what was wrong with the two of them.

"There is a cat."

Hearing this, several people looked over, and sure enough, they saw a white and yellow milk cat under the referee's chair in the stadium.

Probably because it was afraid of being hit by the ball, it huddled against the ladder and did not dare to move, making a small sound, looking very pitiful.

And those two even hit the ball there on purpose, as if deliberately threatening it.

"How could there be a cat?" Atobe frowned. His club stipulates that pets cannot be brought in casually.

Of course, his fox is an exception.

The administrator of this area saw him and hurried over to explain: "I don't know when this cat came in. It's not a pet. We want to wait for the guests to finish the game before taking the cat out."

Atobu raised his eyebrows: "Not now?"

The administrator sneered: "I just wanted to go there, but those two guests didn't allow..."

The two guests are Hasegawa and his son, who have always been frequent visitors of the club. They also applied for the senior VIP of F area a long time ago (let's say that when they are using the court in F area, others cannot enter without authorization).

These two people usually have fewer people, but when there are many people, they like to be monsters, and they always look like they deserve to be beaten.

But after all, he was a distinguished guest, so he didn't cause any trouble, and the administrator didn't care too much.

Atobe let out a "tow" and walked straight down.

On the way, the fox in his arms suddenly took advantage of his inattention, broke away from his hand, and ran directly in the direction of the cat.

"Hey!" Atobe was taken aback for a moment, then quickened his pace.

Seeing this, the others hurriedly followed.

"Dad, isn't that cat stupid?"

The two have been hitting the ball back and forth on one side, and each time the ball lands closer to the iron post.

"Try it and you'll know!"

The middle-aged man grinned badly, and this time he hit the ball directly at the milk cat.

Nioh lay on the kitten when the ball left the racket, and directly pressed the kitten tightly.

Hasegawa and the two of them didn't expect a fox to appear midway, and they were both stunned.

"Snapped!"

A tennis ball falls into the palm of one's hand.

13.

Nioh turned his head to the side, and saw that Abu was in front of him, catching the ball with his bare hands.

"Hey, Atobe, are you okay?"

The rest of the people also arrived on the field, and Xiang Ri looked at his hands with some concern.

"It's just a fluffy ball." Atobe tossed the ball up and down, looking unhappy.

"So soft?" Hasegawa and his son were a little angry.

"Hey guy, what's going on? We are the only ones who can use this court now!" The father pointed his racket at the administrator, "Don't kick them out yet!"

"Sorry sir, this is our boss." The administrator silently retreated to a corner.

Hasegawa's father frowned, and tapped himself on the shoulder with a racket: "Exactly, I also want to ask why there are cats and... foxes here?"

"This is not a closed place, and there is no rule that animals cannot enter." Atobe said coldly, "And if the milk cat is found, the administrator will take it away immediately, and you are not allowed."

After saying that, Atobe threw the ball back, and Hasegawa's father subconsciously raised his racket to block it.

It almost hit him in the face.

"Starting today, you are not members of this club, and the fee will be refunded."

After Atobe finished speaking, he turned and squatted down.

King Ni looked at him, and suddenly felt guilty seeing his serious expression.

At this moment, the milk cat under his belly moved, and he hurriedly got up, but staggered and almost fell——

He was helped by Atobe.

After the milk cat meowed, it rubbed against his leg in attachment, and was immediately hugged by Renzu.

Atobe grabbed Nio's hind limbs, and found that the bandages were scratched there, and the skin was also slightly scratched.

"Are you kidding me?" Hasegawa and his son over there realized what he said, and it was a little unbelievable, "Just for a cat?"

Ren Zuzu looked at the ignorant cat with its big eyes and sighed: "It's not because of the cat, it's the fox, you idiot."

"Hey, you just said that our ball is soft..." Hasegawa's son suddenly calmed down, showing a provocative smile, "Why don't you team up with your companions and play a doubles with us? If you lose, this time How about pretending nothing happened?"

Both Feng and Shido were a little surprised, but Xiang Ri's reaction was more direct: "Huh? He said we would lose?"

Atobe checked and found that the fox was fine, so he handed it over to Jiro.

"Don't make trouble." He scratched the tip of King Ni's nose before saying to Hiji, "Is the warm-up just enough?"

"Of course." Hiji stepped forward to fight side by side with him.

"Really, Atobe-senpai and Hiyoshi..." Feng blinked, he thought he could fight with Shishido.

"Then if you lose..." Atobe took the racket handed over by the administrator and swung it vigorously, pointing at the two of them, "Go away."

"Then I'll be the referee!" Before the two people on the opposite side were about to get angry again, Hyuga clapped his hands and jumped onto the referee chair.

The rest sat on benches outside to watch.

"I heard that these two people have been fighting here, and no one has been able to defeat them." Ren Zu pushed down his glasses, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The kitten slipped from his grasp.

Rubbing the fur of a fox.

And King Ni was lying on the chair, and when he was rubbed like this, he remembered the scratch just now.

Why did my heart skip a beat?

The author has something to say:

Share a thought that came to mind before going to bed last night

Brain hole

Once upon a time there was a sea called Lihai, in which there were the incarnations of the sea, the emperor, the wizard, the mermaid prince, and kelp, but the kelp could become a halfling one day

Later, the mermaid prince wondered what it would be like to become a halfling around the kelp

They think it is the kelp prince - the upper body is human, the lower body is kelp

See if I can open it when I have time (a lot of homework is coming, I don’t want to face the skills training on Monday)

Children's Day Theater

1.

When Atobe was young, he received aristocratic education in England, and did not return to Japan until the year he graduated from elementary school.

On the day I came back, the weather was a bit gloomy, and the clouds crowded the dome, making the air dry.

But Atobe sat in the car, with the indifference of a teenager on his immature face, and the connection with the outside world was blocked by the raised glass window.

"Master Jingwu, do you want to buy a cake back?"

asked the uncle who was the driver and housekeeper.

Atobe's eyes fell on the cake shop not far away, where the words "Children's Day" were written.

"It's not necessary." He looked away, thinking of the big empty house, he lost his mood immediately.

The butler knew that he was not in a good mood, so he didn't say anything else.

It will rain soon.

Atobe turned his head to look out the window, his gaze suddenly fixed.

"Uncle Chuan Gu, stop!"

The butler reacted quickly and parked the car on the side of the road.

"What's the matter, master?"

As soon as he finished asking, Atobe opened the car door and ran down.

"Master Jingwu!" The butler hurriedly pulled out an umbrella and hurriedly followed.

Under the bushes, a white-haired creature curled up with a plastic bag on its head, but that little thing couldn't stop the rain.

"Fox?" Atobe knelt down and covered the little fox's head with his hands.

The butler covered them with an umbrella.

"Master?"

The little fox Nioh heard the movement, and raised his head to reveal those blue-green eyes.

Atobe looked at him for a while before picking him up.

He just wanted to wait for the rain to subside before going home. Where is this person taking him?

"Master, do you want to raise this fox?"

The Ministry of Witnesses walked towards the car with the fox in their arms, and the housekeeper hurriedly followed.

"No, it hurt a little."

On the hind legs, it was probably scratched by a tree branch. Although it is not serious, the wound may become infected if it continues to rain.

Atobe didn't know why he wanted to do such a good thing.

It may be that you simply want to vent your irritability.

Nioh, who was carried into the car, dragged his wet hair and lay on the seat.

At the same time, thinking that this person can actually find his wound, his observation skills are too keen.

The housekeeper handed over a towel, and Atobe took it and wiped his face casually, then wrapped the two palm-sized foxes with the clean one, and rubbed them together.

King Ni raised his front paws to try to pull them away, but he was suppressed. In addition, it was raining just now, so the hair on his body was really not comfortable sticking together.

Then let him go.

It's just that this guy can't be gentler!

2.

Back at the villa, Atobe personally carried the fox back to his room.

"Master, do you need a veterinarian?"

"No, it doesn't seem to be a problem." Atobe saw that the little thing was running around energetically, so he took off his clothes and went to the bathroom.

King Ren found out and followed him in.

—He also wanted to take a bath.

Atobe was lying in the bathtub full of roses, seeing the fox lying on the edge, looking at the petals floating on the water, there seemed to be such a trace of...dislike in his eyes?

He raised his eyebrows.

It's not up to others to comment on my uncle's taste.

Nor can foxes.

So he picked up the fox and put it in the bathtub.

It just lifted its injured hind limb.

Nioh lay on Atobe's lap in a twisted posture.

The warm water washed away his mental fatigue all at once.

For the sake of taking a comfortable bath, let's not bother with this weird person, puri.

"Master, sir sent a package, would you like to see it?"

After Atobe took a shower and put on a bathrobe, the butler came over and said.

"Let's see." Atobe frowned, but Nioh in his arms felt that he was a little happy.

Inside the package is a children's suit, but...

It's a women's dress, a princess dress.

The housekeeper noticed that the air was getting solidified, and quickly comforted him: "Big, it's probably because Mr. is too busy and made a mistake..."

Atobe stuffed the skirt back into the box, not wanting to take another look at it at all: "It's probably my mother's bad taste."

Of course, it is more likely that the father is too busy.

After he was sent to study in England as a child, he began to learn to be independent.

Later, the number of times he met his parents became less and less, and he also went from complaining to getting used to it from the beginning to the present, and then he found what he likes to do—playing tennis.

So even though it was the butler who picked him up, it didn't matter if he couldn't celebrate the last Children's Day....

Only then did Nioh realize that tomorrow is Children's Day.

I also know why Atobe's mood has become depressed.

What a twisted kid.

A princess dress, maybe it’s cute too, right?

King Ren made up his mind silently.

3.

On the second day, Atobe checked the fox's wound and found that there had been scabs.

Originally, it was just scratched, and if it was treated in a timely manner and the ointment used was good, it would naturally recover quickly.

"Are you going back? Little thing." Atobe rubbed the fox's head, and carried him outside, "Maybe your family will also celebrate the festival for you."

Nioh was sent back to the place where he was yesterday.

After the car left, he shook his tail and stood up.

After walking a few steps in the direction of home, he suddenly remembered what happened when he was sleeping last night.

The seemingly mature boy seemed a little lonely lying on the big bed.

Nioh lay on the soft cushion beside the bed, listening to the messy breathing, shaking his ears.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he walked to the middle of the bed with short legs and jumped on Atobu's chest.

The person who was not asleep immediately opened his eyes after being pressed down like this, and had a face-to-face with the fox lying on him.

"Are you really just a fox?" Atobe stretched out his hand to run along its fur.

Feels good.

Nioh swept the tip of his long tail across his mouth, signaling that it was time for him to sleep peacefully.

Atobe grabbed his tail, making him almost jump up.

"It's a bit empty here." Atobe turned over and held the fox in his arms, "But they are very busy, so there is no way."

As he spoke, he closed his eyes.

Nioh blinked.

People who look confident and narcissistic on the surface also have such a fragile side in the dark, pupina.

4.

After sending the fox away, Atobe planned to go home, but bought a small cake on the way.

After all, he couldn't bear the disappointment of the uncle housekeeper's disappointment.

"Master, don't you really want to try?"

After returning to the villa, the butler took out the princess dress again.

"what……"

Atobe was about to sternly refuse, when he was a little surprised and took out something from the bottom of the box.

"Alice and her pet cat... series?"

It was a shopping list with the names of the items on it.

There is also a pet suit inside.

The pink one looks cuter than that princess dress.

Yesterday Atobe looked at the skirt and stuffed it back into the box, not noticing that there was still this thing inside.

This reminded him of the fox that had just been sent away.

...Forget it, it's not a cat, let alone a pet.

Feeling a little bit disappointed, Atobe was about to ask the housekeeper to put away his things when he heard the scream from the maid outside.

"What a cute cat!"

cat?

Atobe hurriedly got up, and came to the backyard with the housekeeper, and saw several maids surrounded by a white thing.

That was clearly the fox that was sent away.

"Master." The maids spotted Atobe with sharp eyes, stood up quickly, and went back to work.

"Why did you run back again?" Atobe picked up the fox, and found that its white fur was covered with mud, and his face showed a bit of disgust, "It's so dirty, it's not gorgeous at all."

Nioh was carried into the bathroom.

This person... is obviously a little happy in his heart.

It's not cute.

This time his injury healed, and he was ruthlessly thrown into the bathtub for rubbing.

"By the way, I have something good for you." Atobe suddenly smiled badly.

Niwang was originally pulling Rose to swim, but when he heard this, his spine felt a chill.

It wasn't until he was fished out by the steward who called in temporarily, and when he covered his head and face to dry, and was put on from the bottom up by a thing, he realized that something was wrong.

Hey, do you want to wear something for him? !

It doesn't feel like a collar, but rather... clothing?

The fox under his hands kept struggling, but in the end he lost his energy and could only let Atobu do his best.

After the towel was removed, Nioh had a face-to-face look with himself in the opposite mirror.

He didn't recognize this fox in a pink skirt and a lace hat.

So why did he have a brain twitch and run back just now?

Atobe is pleased with the fox's new outfit.

The size is also just right.

"Master, come and cut the cake."

The butler came in with a cart, on which were the small cakes he had bought.

It's just that the butler painted the words "Happy Children's Day (in Japanese)" with cream on it on his own initiative.

Atobe was about to cut the cake and didn't want something to bump into him from behind.

He turned his head and saw the fox pushed the box containing the princess dress behind his back.

Those turquoise eyes stared at him firmly, as if saying that you should wear them too.

Obviously it is Alice and the cat, how can there be only "cat" without "Alice", puri.

In the end, due to a certain reason (maybe the fox wanted to plan him restlessly), Atobe changed into a princess dress.

He flicked his bangs: "Hmph, even if you wear a princess dress, it won't affect my uncle's beauty."

So Alice Atobe and his cat Fox had a "happy" Children's Day.

End. (It’s a little easter egg)

One day a few years later, on the big bed in the villa, Atobe opened his eyes.

The sunlight was projected through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the head beside him that looked easy to touch.

Atobe supported his head with one hand, and gently brushed Nio's hair with the other.

"Huh?" The half-dream and half-awake person felt his small movements and made an impatient voice.

"Make ears, Masaharu." Atobe touched his earlobe.

Niwang didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he didn't bother to talk to him, turned over and continued to sleep.

However, the people behind him kept making small movements, which made it difficult for him to return to Mengxiang.

It's a rare weekend to catch up on sleep...

With that in mind, he also compromised.

Two furry fox ears popped out of the silver hair, and the quilt moved at the same time.

Atobe was a little surprised, looking at the tip of the tail shaking under his chin, he couldn't help curling his lips.

"A pleasant surprise, huh?"

He picked up the penetrating tip and kissed it lightly.

"Happy Children's Day, little fox."

The author has something to say:

Happy Children's Day (Although it seems to have passed that age)

This chapter is probably more serious OOC, after all, I also deduce his childhood life based on the experience of Uncle Atobe (whisper bb)

By the way, I can’t sleep if my hair is not dry. I have a headache all day today.

But the cake for Children's Day healed me and the cream was really a little angel in my life
