Lehigh High School Boys Tennis Club

In the evening, the athletes who had become familiar with each other because of training finally became less distinct in the cafeteria.

Although there was no party atmosphere, everyone had a nutritious meal in front of them, but the seats began to mix together, so we could chat a little bit.

For example, Kirihara found a friend who could play games with him, and Sengoku and Midorima had a sincere conversation about the "lucky object".

Seeing Kirihara hugging someone, Marui asked him to borrow the game console again, and couldn't help saying: "You go play with him? I don't borrow the switch!"

Kirihara blinked: "Then I'll go find Tamagawa!"

When did your relationship with Yuchuan get so good?Aren't you still arguing?

Marui sulked and crunched the vegetable salad.

King Ren laughed at him: "Are you jealous or are you jealous?"

"I just cherish my game console!" Marui said firmly, taking out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket.

The next day Liu Sheng will compete with Tibetan Rabbit.

Nioh and Sengoku were in the same room, and originally wanted to give Kuwahara some guidance on how to deal with Sengoku, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it, and let Marui worry about it, that is, go to Yagyu's room to find him.

"I remember you will arrange special training at night." Yagyu said when he opened the door and came out.

Nioh was not surprised that Yagyu knew this.

He and Yukimura went out to practice without avoiding people.

"Training is over," he said.

Liu Sheng froze for a moment, as if he understood something from his words: "Oh."

He pushed his glasses and responded again: "Oh."

King Ni beckoned to Liu Sheng and said, "Let's go for a walk."

When they were in Australia they always went for walks together.

In the beginning, Yagyu took the initiative.

He and Kuwabara went to Australia to watch the game at their own expense. It is okay to be excited, but of course there is also a little subtle frustration and unwillingness to admit defeat.

At that time, the coaching staff also counted the "unselected players" who came to the training camp to watch the game, and arranged them together in the same hotel after soliciting opinions, which can also leave a little sense and room for safety issues by the way.

In Lihai University, only Yagyu and Kuwahara were not on the team list, so naturally the two shared a double room, a standard room.The room I lived in was slightly more spacious than the three-person room arranged by the representative team. Nioh occasionally went to Yagyu’s room to take a nap during his lunch break—Kuwahara didn’t take a lunch break, so he would go out with Marui to check in dessert shops or restaurants.

Before that they were in the Cold War.

Strictly speaking, it is the time period from the national competition finals to the training camp.

Because Nioh doesn't really think about it now, probably some differences in tennis, and some conflicts accumulated between the two when they were playing.

Before that, in order to cultivate a tacit understanding, they called every day, chatting about tennis, studying, and inevitably also talking about life.There may be friction during the day, and there is actually no way to apologize over the phone, but there are some small details of mutual relief during the chat.

The "exchange of identities" with Liu Sheng was a game he had come up with.

He had a great time, and Liu Sheng said he refused, but he didn't reject it in his heart, and King Ni could see it.

After that Nioh flipped a weird switch.

He took advantage of the Kanto Youth Selection period to research on his own, and developed the "phantom" before the national competition.

He didn't tell Liu Sheng.

This is probably one of the reasons why they have been in the cold war before and after entering the U17.

□□, probably.

The second reason for the Cold War, Nioh guessed, was because he went to Yukimura privately, saying that he wanted to play singles, and wanted to see what effect the "Phantom" would have on singles.

Yukimura agreed.

He played singles two in the final.

Phantom worked well, but he lost that match.

On the way back to Kanagawa that day, he went to the beach, and Yagyu followed him, one in front of the other.

Then they got into an argument on the beach not far from the school and nearly got into a fight.

Yagyu said we talked on the phone every day, you didn't tell me you wanted to play singles.

Nioh said that this needs to be said, who doesn't want to play singles, don't you?

so what?Didn't you lose the game?

A lot of hurtful things were said, both sides.

In fact, I didn't take it to heart, but the relationship was frozen there, and neither of them wanted to bow their heads first.

Nioh even regretted it a little, because of his rash attitude and the easy loss of the game.

He remembered Bu Er's ridicule towards him.

His "Phantom" was really bad for that period.At least he was closer to himself, and he wouldn't lose that singles match so quickly.

So he couldn't refute Liu Sheng's words.

Can't forgive myself either.

Then the U17 training camp started.

He lost the seven-goal duel somewhat absent-mindedly, and because of this defeat, he inevitably felt a little resentful towards Yagyu.

In fact, his deceit was too perfunctory.

But he can't help but think, I can't lie to you anymore, can you be so cruel to me?

Yagyu came to the infirmary to look for him after he finished the doubles with Atobu.There is no longer a cold war, but some words cannot be fully explained.

Nioh was under a lot of pressure in Australia.

He wants to do something, so he observes seniors, gets along with high school students, goes to watch games every day, and communicates with members of other national teams in the viewing area.

Nioh is a sociable person.

He doesn't like it, but is good at it.

He's easy to befriend, and he knows best how to be likable.

One night before the end of the group match, Yagyu said when he went to his room for a lunch break, do you have time tonight?

Well?No training at night.

Let's go for a walk then.

That's how it started, walking every night.

Nioh knew that Yagyu wanted him to relax, but the inexplicable pressure kept building up.

Nioh has always been confident.

The vision and evaluation of others will not influence him to choose his own path.

It was just before the semifinals, when he knew that he would play doubles with Senior Duke the next day, when he was walking with Yagyu, he couldn't help but say that.

"This competition is the last time I will use Phantom."

Later, when he entered the high school, he continued to play tennis, and every move he made seemed to directly turn this sentence into a lie.

But anyway, he only said this to Yagyu.

And Liu Sheng even understood that what King Ni said at that time was the truth.

How interesting, a verified lie is the current "sincerity".

"So far, I have hallucinated a lot of people. The closer I get to real people, the more clearly I can see the frustrations, thoughts and life experiences of those people... a little depressed."

Phantom turned out to be such a hard thing.

When he first thought of "exchanging identities" on a whim, he couldn't wait to persuade Liu Sheng to "play" this game with him.

Nioh really regarded this as "fun" at the beginning.

Victory made him find fun, and he continued to enjoy it, and continued to dig in this area.

His talent and nature allowed him to quickly develop "Phantom".

He cast "Phantom" as a fantasy magician's performance, and got the same result as a blow to the head.

Nioh is so strong.

His reluctance made him go deeper into the "Phantom", gradually bearing more and more pressure, and the inevitable mentality change that he had to bear if he wanted to do his best.

Luckily he won that match.

Looking back now, Nioh really can only draw one conclusion, that is, luckily he won that match.

His physical condition can also be regarded as talented, even if he phantoms Camus's artistic tennis for the French team, he survived and performed well.Of course, the corresponding physical burden and injuries are objective.

He scored the last point with his "Meteor Swipe".

He used Nioh Masaharu's identity to win the final victory.

And victory can bring people a lot of relief, self-confidence, and enlightenment.

He won, so he started not to care about the slights and belittlings he received because of "Phantom".

That's all me.

He never mentioned the "last time" he once said, because Nioh Masaharu is Nioh Masaharu whether he uses "Phantom" or not.

Fraudsters are also fraudsters.

He has a thousand faces, and a man has a thousand faces.

It's like his different dimension, and it's just as he imagined.He can control himself, and he will always be himself.His self-awareness is so strong, and he will never be confused and scattered after going through the most difficult time period.

After careful calculation, it was only a year.

But Nioh knew how much he had grown in this year.

And Liu Sheng is his most intimate partner.

He is moving forward.

He knew that Liu Sheng would walk on a different path from him in the end.

But it doesn't matter, even if the road is different, friends are still friends.

He hopes that they will always walk on parallel lines, that he will not lag behind, and neither will Yagyu.In this way, even if they took different paths, he could still see Liu Sheng's shadow when he turned his head sideways.

They are always side by side.

"You will win tomorrow, Hiroshi." Nioh said, "But Kuwabara is more difficult, piyo~"

"It's too rude, Nioh-kun." Yagyu turned his head to look at him, "Of course I will win. It's not like Kuwahara has no chance at all."

They were shoulder to shoulder, separated by a safe distance, not very close, but the pace was the same, and the rhythm was the same.

Nioh raised his lips and smiled, and said, did you know that Qianshi would add an hour of high-intensity boxing training in the evening after training every day, and would get up early to do anaerobic muscle-building exercises before training in the morning.

"What a ruthless person." King Ren said.

He knew how much effort and injury Qianshi had spent before he finally practiced the "punch" tennis he imagined.

Yagyu shrugged, "Kuwabara has also worked hard during this time."

"That's good, Mrs. Wen is very worried." King Ren said.

Liu Sheng turned his head, just in time for King Ni to say: "It's like, I'm worried about you too."

"...I'm not that weak." Liu Sheng pushed his glasses.

Niwang nodded, as if he suddenly remembered something: "Speaking of which, you have a good relationship with Tibetan Rabbit?"

"Why do you ask?"

"You are the senior he admires, I remember right." King Ni licked his lips and smiled, "He beat Kirihara so badly in the national competition last year, he is like a little rabbit in front of you."

Liu Sheng looked at him, and suddenly smiled: "Are you jealous, King Ni?"

"I didn't say anything."

The author has something to say:

A friend of Liu Shengren.

Because the story of Liu Shengren updated by XF later is so sweet that it is completely different from what I wrote when I started this article, so I re-explained it... Anyway, the relationship between these two people is cold war and sweet, so I gave up.

Teacher XF is really unpredictable.

In the first half of the New Net King manga, I really thought that the two had a falling out...
