After the diagnosis of the new stage of the disease, Yukimura's attending physician Kaneda still felt that he was not enough to support this operation, so he asked his superiors for instructions.After negotiation and adjustment, it was decided that experienced Dr. Nagai will be the surgeon.

Unlike Dr. Jintian, who is serious and rigid, Dr. Nagai is a kind-hearted middle-aged man. Of course, as doctors, they are not so easy to talk about in terms of diagnosis and treatment.For Yukimura, dealing with Dr. Nagai seemed even more of a headache.

"Although I know that patients will be very happy when they learn that the success rate of the operation has increased, but Yukimura-kun seems to be too excited."

"Sorry, I can't help being a little anxious."

"Haha, are you in a hurry to recover?"

"..."

"Yukimura-kun is a very smart kid, he should understand the truth of going too far, right?"

"sorry."

"Yukimura-kun shouldn't have told me." Nagai didn't accept Yukimura's insincere compromise and apology, and pointed at Yukimura's legs with a clipboard, "Apologize to yourself, they have to be coaxed of."

"I understand." Yukimura was persuaded helplessly.

After a round of plasma exchange, Yukimura once again underwent a series of examinations such as electromyography and puncture, and received news that he was preparing for surgery in the near future.Before the operation, patients will more or less have symptoms of depression. The hospital also arranges a psychologist to resolve it, and the family members also need to cooperate accordingly.In fact, Yukimura no longer felt that sense of hesitation.

If you have already decided, then go on. There is no reason for hesitating on that road, and it is even more impossible to go back to the fork in the road to make a decision.

He thought about this operation for a while, but he still notified Sanada.As a result, all eight people came that day.It was the weekend at the end of April, and I made up the training volume in advance, and it seemed that I couldn't find the fault.

"You..." Yukimura glanced at Sanada complainingly. [Why can't you hide this? ]

[We all want to fight with you. ] Sanada didn't avert his gaze, and was quite confident in his heart.

"Yukimura, you are going to the 'battlefield', of course we have to come." Nioh put his right arm on Yagyu's shoulder, and it was rare to unite with Sanada.They are teammates, no matter when and where, shouldn't they stand aside and silently be the encouragers of their ministers?

"Come on, Yukimura." Marui smiled and blinked his right eye at Yukimura, "There are no dead ends."

"The probability of Seiichi returning to the Ministry is 100%." ​​Liu didn't have a notebook in his hand, but stood silently behind Yukimura on the right, following as if he was in the Ministry.

"Ah." Yukimura shook hands with everyone in turn, "I have no dead ends." [This "competition", I will win. ]

Watching the dressed boy being sent into the door, the scene is slowed down frame by frame, and the nerves are involuntarily tense, but there are infinite expectations, and no one wants this to be the last.The red light in the operating room was on, and outside the door were Yukimura's parents and Zhun Zhengxuan, a group of eight people.

An Ji sat on the chair, covering her face and sobbing, trying her best to hold back the tears.Ming Hao hugged his lover to give her strength and courage, as if he was a prisoner on trial in his heart.Yes, prisoner, the responsibility for signing the consent form for yourself is a crime or a merit, and the sentencing will be ushered in the next few hours.

Yukimura was in the operating room, the gathered light was a bit dazzling, and the anesthesia given by the assistant was gradually taking effect.Dr. Nagai only showed a pair of eyes, surrounded by assistants who were dressed in the same costume, standing by the operating table to make the final preparations.Yukimura was calm at this moment, even a little curious, his mind was completely empty now, he didn't think about anything, and he had nothing to do, so he could only stare at Nagai, Nagai turned around and met Yukimura's eyes still fixed on him, The eyes are slightly narrowed, which is the gentleness and calmness when he smiles, and the calmness he shows comforts his young patient.

After that, consciousness gradually blurred.It was as if five sets were played in a row. There was a white light in front of his eyes, and his usually sensitive ears could not hear the words clearly. Only the sound of metal collisions could be heard clearly.

[It's so long. ]

When the red light in front of the operating room turned green, Yukimura's parents immediately stepped forward to ask.Nagai, who had already taken off his mask, was intercepted normally as soon as he came out of the door.

"Don't worry, it was a success."

"Wan, uh..." Kirihara, who was the first to respond, just yelled out a syllable, but Liu Yanji quickly covered his mouth with his hands, and his arms were exerted due to the surging heart of the master, so that Kirihara yelled, and was caught Yagyu, who was grinning ungentlemanly, came to the rescue.

Of course Marui knew that shouting was not allowed in the hospital, so he showed his excitement by jumping up, hugging Kuwahara and kissing him on the cheek, then turned to the side and jumped on his back from behind Nioh, and Kuwahara succeeded under the double knock of surprise and fright. Blushing and stiff, Shimadzu, who was also unable to vent, hugged and slapped his back hard.

The usual phrase "too slack" did not appear, because the previous speaker was also laughing silently there.

Tears were still shining in An Ji's eyes, maybe he knew that his crying and laughing look was weird, so he was covering his face with his hands.Ming Hao ushered in a good verdict, acquitted himself, wiped his face and hugged An Ji and moved to the door, so that the tired doctors after an operation could rest.

When he woke up again, seeing his mother's happy face beside the bed, Yukimura knew that he had won, as always.

The partners had no choice but to go home under the persuasion of the nurse and the urging of their family members.Minghao, too, was called away by a reminder call.But the empty ward was full of hope, and he won the possibility of standing on the tennis court again.

A freshman, he will take good care of it.

Zhunzheng chose a group to look for an opportunity to visit Yukimura again. He had just finished removing the stitches, and the wound was covered with a drug-smelling adhesive tape. After staying for half an hour, everyone was reprimanded and rejected by obvious inconsistencies.

"It's good that there are no more than thirty people here, Yukimura."

Yukimura was annoyed by this bold statement, and laughed dangerously: "Hehe, you can try it."

Threatened King Ni twitched his tongue, bowed his waist and hid behind Yagyu, and Yagyu followed the steps to clean up the mess for King Nio: "Of course I won't do this. But the regional qualifiers are coming soon, we always have to come to you Let me report. For example, the status of freshmen, competitions, etc.?" The hint in the ending sound is obvious, and Marui on the left and Shimadzu Asanoyanagi show cryptic thumbs up.

"Can't Lian Er be alone?" Liu, who was called, put his hands behind his back, and he was very entangled: Should I say yes, or not?

"The details are always observed by those of us who have been in contact."

"...Okay." Yukimura let it go, "But you can only come after I agree, and I will contact Sanada."

"Of course, I won't bother you on weekdays." As if completing a major mission, Yagyu felt good pushing his glasses under Kirihara's adoring expression.

Yukimura's postoperative recovery was smooth, which may have benefited from his former athlete's physique and will.His case has been completely transferred to Nagai's staff. This kind-hearted doctor has been more distressed recently because he has a patient who is all-round and does not strictly follow the doctor's orders.

"Postoperative rehabilitation is as important as preoperative treatment, Yukimura-kun." [Now is not the time to be willful. ]

"Yes, I can understand." [So it's just a little bit more. 】

"Everything should be gradual, especially when it comes to the body." [Not at all. ]

"But in this way, my recovery time will continue until the second semester of this year." [As a minister, I can't keep up with this season's competition, is it reasonable? 】The postoperative recovery period is one month, and the normal recovery period is conservatively estimated at three months, not to mention that he has to return to his physical fitness and ball sense before his illness.

"This is already the shortest time limit. If Yukimura-kun wants to compete, based on my experience, it will be the end of the year." Nagai knew what Yukimura was thinking, and he did not compromise. "Next year's youth league can still catch up."

"Even you can't shorten this time limit?" There are sharp thorns hidden in the plain language.

"I'm sorry, Yukimura-kun, I have to remind you that according to previous case statistics, normal rehabilitation also has a 3.76% recurrence rate, and the situation will get worse." Nagai tried to use less aggressive words, "If you are too If you rush, the probability of winning the lottery will skyrocket to the probability of rain in Kanagawa in summer."

"..."

"Yukimura-kun, actually I don't want to operate on you again, can you understand?" As a doctor, he has to be responsible for the health of his patients.

"But...Nagai-san also said it's just a probability."

Nagai laughed, he had never seen such a patient before.Athlete patients usually yearn for the inevitability of no recurrence, rather than fluke because there is no inevitability of recurrence!

"Yukimura-kun, I must remind you one thing solemnly." Nagai could no longer take care of Yukimura's feelings, "Athlete's body is very strong, but it is also the most fragile. According to your situation, the second attack is definitely not the first. It is so easy to deal with once, and the course of treatment will not be so short. Oh, it is not easy for the first time, is it? You are still underage, so please cherish it."

"..."

Nagai, who didn't get an answer, had to close the pen cap and leave the ward.Understanding does not mean understanding. He thinks that rehabilitation according to normal conditions is completely beneficial and has no disadvantages, doesn't it?Physical fitness is the capital of sports competition.

As for Yukimura, the previously vowed intention was shaken by the reality, so quickly.

People who "survived after the catastrophe" always have a combination of luck and fear.They will feel that they can escape the same catastrophe next time, but they have faint fear and resistance to the situation of "relapse".

Yukimura is very sensible, and he doesn't have the secondary school two who are easily passionate, but the balance in the hearts of teenagers is different from that of adults.

For adults who have suffered setbacks, the edges and corners have been polished to be smooth.In their eyes, the scale of themselves, or individuals, is constantly increasing; collective responsibility is like a rusted weight. Although it looks like it is constantly expanding, it is actually getting lighter and older. A lot of debris can be scattered.

The weight in the heart of the 15-year-old boy is still brand new and bright. Now there is a big tennis ball on the left side of his balance, and small khaki iron blocks of different scales are constantly added to the right side. As a minister’s responsibility, teammates expect him, The members behind...

The originally immobile balance began to tremblingly reduce the angle of inclination, until finally, it still failed to withstand the weight of the huge tennis ball.

During the few days when he made his decision, he was so filled with guilt that he couldn't hold his head up. Apart from tossing himself during recovery, there was really no outlet for this distress. He was even very grateful that Fujiwara-senpai didn't come to visit him in the hospital and prayed Don't come after the sound of steady footsteps.

It seems that only the flowers in the garden and the laughter of the children can gently soothe his knotted heart and make him realize: ah, spring is here.

The days of rehabilitation are a bit boring, not as happy as swinging a racket.Yukimura is still on an unstable path for the time being, and the "skill" that only appears in comics, such as falling on the ground, is passively activated by the master's unwilling attitude. At this time, there will usually be an important person who "saves the beauty" Appear, such as the protagonist's good partner?Or the target of the plot strategy?To make it more complicated, the little villain and opponent who had conflicts before is about to abandon the dark and turn to the bright?

Unfortunately, it's just a strange older youth who has stepped into the middle-aged group with one foot.The powerful arm directly stopped Yukimura's tendency to lean forward, and quickly straightened him with familiarity, and then retracted his right arm naturally.

"Thank you." The white coat showed the identity of a kind-hearted person, and Yukimura had to raise his head slightly to look at each other.The young man with beards and mustaches looks old, but the appreciation and care shown in his eyes made Yukimura feel a question mark in his heart.

[I know? ]

"Haha, be careful, don't always keep your head down, Yukimura-kun." The doctor turned and left after speaking as if he was giving a routine order.

"..." He should have taken a closer look at the nameplate on his left chest just now.
