"Mai sauce!"

There are people coming and going in front of a certain competitive swimming pool on Saturday.After Huali saw Mai waiting at the entrance of the venue, she ran over quickly.

On this day, Huali got up early and began to dress up. The Bailongshen who heard the movement rubbed his eyes, and the sleepy Huali opened the door of the room, yawning and asking, "What are you doing so early?"

Huali, who was combing her hair, immediately put down the comb when she heard Bailongshen's voice, turned her head and said good morning to him, then stood up from the dressing table, took the bag hanging on the side and carried it on her shoulder, and replied: : "Today I have an appointment with Mai to go to a swimming competition."

Seeing this, Bai Longshen woke up most of the time from dozing off, and hurried to Huali's side and asked, "When did it happen?"

"It was the night we came back from Ms. Yoko's location." Huali walked to the mirror and looked at her outfit, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, she took her mobile phone and wallet and planned to go out.

At first, Bailongshen just stood aside and watched, but then he thought of something and quickly grabbed Huali before she was about to step out of the room, and asked Huali to take him with her while being coquettish.

Huali was still a little hesitant to take Bailongshen with her, but her mother, who also heard the news and came up to see the situation, joined the ranks of persuading Huali.

Compared with Bailongshen's blind act like a baby, mother gave Huali a reason to take "Xiaoxiang" to play together - today father's company has a reception, and mother will also attend, and she will go to do beauty treatment later Styling or something, it is unlikely to be at home at noon.Instead of leaving Xiaoxiang at home alone, it is better to go with Huali.

"I haven't heard of this before." Huali murmured softly.Mom didn't understand, she smiled softly and said, "Mom was only told after Dad came back last night. I originally planned to tell you this morning. Moreover, our original plan was to tell you about it before going out." Xiaoxiang was packed and sent to Sakura-chan, but since he wants to go with you, you can take him with you. We happened to go to Sakura-chan’s apartment together after watching the game.”

Although my mother said this in a negotiating tone, in fact, she basically made a decision when she said this.

So, when Huali came to the competition venue, there was a little tail behind her.

Mai, who was waiting in front of the stadium entrance, looked over after hearing Huali's voice. She raised her hand as usual, but she froze in place after waving her hand.

Mai's eyes fell on Huali's left hand - she was holding a child who looked like she was only in the first grade.

Mai blinked, and just as she was hesitating, Huali and the child she was holding had already arrived in front of her.

The two greeted each other familiarly. Mai lowered her head slightly, looked curiously at the child who was hiding behind her by the hem of the flower pear coat, and asked, "Who is this child? So cute!"

Upon hearing this, Huali immediately introduced: "This child is Xiangwu, my younger brother."

"Huh? Brother?" Mai immediately showed a puzzled expression when he heard this statement, "Is it a relative's child?"

"Yeah." Huali nodded, "However, he is also a child of our family now, after all, he has been adopted!"

"Is that so..." Mai nodded slightly after hearing this, and then she bent down and smiled at the child, "Hi, I'm Mai Takaji, please give me your advice."

"...Hello, Ma, Mai sister..."

Bailongshen, who was always shy outside, grabbed Huali's clothes, said hello shyly, and then hid behind Huali with a blushing face.

Perhaps because he didn't expect this little boy to be so shy, Mai was stunned when he shrank behind Huali, and smiled when the child looked over with a confused face.Mai straightened up and looked at Huali. Seeing that she also had a helpless expression on her face, she smiled understandingly and didn't say anything about it.

After the successful rendezvous, the two, together with Bailongshen who was holding Huali tightly, walked into the venue talking and laughing.

When walking to the stadium, Huali curiously asked Mai why she suddenly wanted to watch the swimming competition. The latter smiled mysteriously and said that it was a friend she met on the Internet. The swimming department of her school entered the national competition this year, so Mai was invited to watch the game together.Then Mai invited Huali again.

"Girl?" Listening to the title referred to in Mai's words, Huali almost blurted out without hesitation.

Mai laughed, her brows and eyes were full of tenderness, "She is a very cute girl, but we have to call her senior when we meet."

Huali's curiosity was completely aroused, and she asked how Mai and her met, saying that they met through the Internet, but there must be a chance!

Mai didn't hide anything, but she didn't give a very detailed explanation either. She only said that it was because of hobbies that the two met in the vast sea of ​​people. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was "fate".

"Huh? Hobbies?"

Huali paused when she heard Mai's statement, and lowered her head to think about what Mai said about her hobbies.After a long while, Huali suddenly stopped in her tracks, and looked at Mai in disbelief, her eyes were a little speechless.

Realizing Huali stopped suddenly, Mai turned around and looked at Huali with a slight smile without saying a word, not even urging her, just quietly watching her with a slight smile.

"..." Seeing this, the corners of Huali's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and it took a while for her to return to normal, "Isn't Mai-chan meeting that senior when she was shopping for magazines online?"

"Bingo!"

Mai snapped her fingers, her eyes sparkling.

Huali suddenly had nothing to say.

While the two were talking, they came to the auditorium, and Mai looked around looking for someone while sending a message.

"Ah! I found it!" Soon, Mai saw a girl in a sports short-sleeved yellow shirt waving in her direction not far away, and immediately walked over quickly, pulling Huali.

"Senior Kuo (Jiang)!"

"Sackcloth!"

The two people with the same hobbies hugged each other as soon as they met, and Huali stood by and smiled.It's strange that he doesn't feel like his best friend is being snatched away. He obviously cared about such things until he graduated from middle school.When I was in elementary school, if anyone got a little closer to Mai, he would lose his temper, and he was a full-fledged "stingy ghost".

——Maybe I grew up before I knew it.

Huali, who was distracted, suddenly felt that she was being pulled, and quickly broke away from those thoughts that she had or didn't have. With a smile on her face, she greeted the senior named "Matsuoka Jiang" under Mai's introduction.

After introducing each other, Matsuoka Jiang brought Mai and Huali to the support seat of Iwatobi High School.After another introduction, Mai, Huali and Bailongshen sat down here.

Today's first competition is the men's medley relay, which is the event that Iwatobi High School entered the national competition.

"Huh? Are the seniors in the first group of the preliminaries?"

Huali was flipping through the competition schedule while she was distracted listening to the compliments and comments of the two people beside her on the muscles of the contestants on the spot, and then responded to the two of them from time to time.

When she saw the participating members of Iwatobi High School marked on the medley swimming column in the handbook, she suddenly paused when her eyes moved to one of the names.

Raising her hand and stroking the line "Nanase Haruka" printed on the manual, Huali laughed secretly that she was a little suspicious, but it was just the same surname, why did she think of Grandma Nanase so sensitively.

It just so happened that the athletes were entering the field at this time, Huali quickly put down the manual and looked down the field, as if she wanted to see what kind of person the name that caught her attention was.However, she forgot that she had never met Nanase Haruka before, how could she match up with someone just by a name.Fortunately, Huali himself noticed this problem very quickly, and quickly asked Jiang, which one of Yanyuan's team was Senior Nanase.

Matsuoka Jiang did not doubt that he was there, and pointed to Yanyuan's team and introduced them to Huali and Mai one by one.

When Huali looked over through Song Gangjiang's introduction, she suddenly bumped into a pair of eyes that looked like the sea.

Huali was stunned, and the strange feeling that had gradually arisen in her heart when she saw the name became more and more obvious.Huali quickly looked away as if frightened, but when she moved, she unexpectedly saw a figure she was very familiar with.

"Grandma Nanase?"

Huali looked at the figure in the distance who was almost hidden in the shadow of the passage and murmured, then immediately stood up and wanted to chase after him.

But at this moment the whistle of the game sounded, Huali shook his head slightly, and when he looked over, Nanase was no longer there.

Because she was really concerned, Huali said to Mai and ran towards the direction where she saw Nanase's figure just now.

As soon as Mai uttered a syllable, before she had time to ask what was going on, she watched Huali run away, speechless for a long time.

The first group of preliminaries ended soon, and Iwatobi High School successfully entered the finals.Jiang and Yanyuan High School's classmates and teachers beside him were all celebrating, but Mai looked at the direction where Huali disappeared with some disbelief.

"Sackcloth?"

Jiang noticed Mai's strangeness and asked in a low voice.Turning her head to the side and seeing that Huali who came with her was nowhere to be seen, she asked again.

Mai shook her head and said, "Xiao Hua saw someone she knew and went to say hello."

"That's it."

There was nothing special about meeting acquaintances by chance. Jiang didn't think much about it. Her brother would participate in the next group preliminaries, and her attention soon shifted to the swimming pool.

Although Jiang flickered away here for a while, Mai did not feel relieved, wondering if it was the girl's unique sixth sense that was at work, Mai had a very bad premonition in her heart.

Bailongshen, who was left behind by Huali, also showed the same worried expression as Mai.When Huali ran away, looking at her back, Bailongshen always felt that his treasure would be taken away.He wanted to catch up, but hesitated the moment he took a step.And at the moment when he hesitated, Huali had disappeared.When he wanted to chase him out again, the sackcloth on the side grabbed his hand and prevented him from running around.

Looking at his current appearance with short hands and short feet, Bailongshen felt that he was cheating himself for the first time—the appearance of a child can make Shenzi defenseless against him, but walking in this world also suffers from many obstacles. Restriction, "This is not allowed, that is not allowed" These are the words He has heard the most during this period of time.

Huali, who ran to find Nanase's grandma, ran out of the venue but couldn't find her. She saw a similar figure chasing after her several times but it was nothing, or there was no one there when she saw the figure chasing after her.

Huali looked around but found nothing.Finally she stopped by an artificial creek next to the venue.Squatting down, putting her hand into the flowing stream, Huali sighed, she didn't know why she was so persistent, and she was far away at that time, so she didn't know whether that figure was Grandma Nanase herself Clearly, I was too impulsive to chase after him like this.

After resting for a while, Huali got up and was about to go back. She ran out suddenly and didn't explain to Mai and Bailongshen. They should be worried.

Taking her hand out of the stream, Huali stood up, but just as she turned around and was about to walk back, she suddenly felt as if she had tripped over something on the flat road under her feet, and her body fell backwards uncontrollably. fell down.

Huali was startled, and was about to straighten her body and move her steps so that she would at least not fall into the stream, when suddenly many hands appeared from the stream.These hands grabbed Huali's shoulders, hands, legs, waist and abdomen, and even covered her mouth and eyes with two hands, dragging her into the water forcefully.

"thump."

There was the sound of an extremely light object falling into the water, and the chirping of cicadas in summer came and went, but Huali disappeared.

The author has something to say: Haruka Nanase and E Matsuoka: From "Free! -EternalSummer-" this relay race is the last race of the second part

The brain hole made up by the supplement, it happens that there is also a "Natsume" in "Natsume" _(:з"∠)_
