meeting

"Zhou Zhu..." Yukimura looked at the calm Fuji in front of him, and felt a faint sense of embarrassment pervading between the two, "I..."

"Needless to say." Buer shook his head freely, "We are not acting in some vulgar third-rate romance novel script, not to mention that no one is at fault from the beginning to the end of this matter."

Yukimura opened his lips slightly, but stopped talking.

Rewind the time eighteen hours.

The battle between Hyotei and Seigaku ended in a tragic victory for Seigaku. After Atobe beat Tezuka 7-6, Hikichiwaka still lost to Echizen Ryoma in the playoffs.

Still, both sides were caught in a low-key atmosphere.Ice Emperor stopped in the first round of the Kanto Contest and was doomed to miss the national competition. However, Qingxue is not optimistic. So what if he defeated Ice Emperor at the cost of Tezuka's arm? Can he survive the more cruel schedule after losing a general? Going on, everyone is confused.

As soon as the game was over, coach Ryuzaki personally sent Tezuka to the hospital for examination.Atobe gave the green light by exercising his privilege and invited the best doctor in the National Hospital for diagnosis, but the diagnosis result was not optimistic.

"Tezuka-kun's elbow has indeed healed, but it may be due to old injuries. He has been deliberately avoiding the injury in his daily life, and his habit of exerting force has also changed, which has increased the burden on his shoulders. Although he did not break out before, But the condition itself has deteriorated very badly. Even if it recovers in the future, I don’t think it’s only the old injured left hand that can continue to play tennis.” The doctor said earnestly, “The young man has not fully developed yet, and his arm has fallen off the old one. Injury, this will definitely have an impact on life in the future."

"You're right." Coach Ryuzaki also felt very ashamed. Tezuka was only a 15-year-old boy, but he was burdened with too many things, which hindered his growth. No matter how she thought about ruining his tennis career, she felt very sorry.

"It's none of your business, coach. This is a responsibility I am willing to take on myself. I should bear the consequences. I have already figured it out." As soon as Tezuka finished speaking, Yukimura's face instantly turned blue. , then turned around and walked out the door.

Yukimura glanced at Tezuka, saw that he was still as motionless as a mountain, frowned slightly, made a gesture with Atobe and hurriedly chased him out.

"Zhou Zhu." Yukimura saw Fuji leaning against the wall as soon as he went out.Although he ran out impulsively, he was worried that Tezuka's condition would not go far after all.

"I'm really terrible." Fuer leaned against the wall, bowed his head deeply, with a sluggish expression, "Obviously I already know..."

Seeing his decadent look, Yukimura couldn't think of any comforting words for a while: "Tennis..." He recalled Tezuka's resolute side face in the consulting room in his mind, his eyes didn't waver at all, even if he heard that he might not When I continued to play, nothing changed.Yukimura couldn't imagine what it would be like if this happened to him.

It must crash.

After all, tennis is my life.

But looking at Bu Er's painful expression, he had to think of more things besides tennis and himself.Family, friends...they will suffer as well.

A strong man like Fuji loses composure when he hears what the doctor says.What about the others?

Is it worth sacrificing a possible future for a victory?If the price to be paid is mother's tears, friend's pain, is the exchange fair?There is too much to pay to keep the promise of The Pillars.

Yukimura couldn't answer. Different people's values ​​will lead them to choose different answers, and there is never a right or wrong answer.

"Don't worry Tezuka." Yukimura reached out and patted Fuji's shoulder, "I think although he is strong, he must also need the support of his friends."

Bu Er looked at him, a pair of ice blue eyes shrouded in a layer of light haze, but there was a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth. "maybe."

Fuji straightened his body, rubbed his face to calm his nerves, and finally walked towards the consulting room, but the moment he passed Yukimura, Fuji suddenly turned his head to look at Yukimura and asked, "If it was you, Seichi, what would you do? "

Yukimura froze in place, lost in thought while looking at Fuji's back.

Unexpectedly, that somewhat terrifying nightmare recalled in his mind, the fragmentary memory of the ward, which was so dark that there was no edge.The cycle of admission, discharge, until the last time he left the hospital...

"Seichi." Seeing that Yukimura hadn't come back for a long time, Atobe, who was a little worried, also came out.

"Ah!" Yukimura woke up suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Atobe stretched out his hand with some concern and gently stroked Yukimura's right cheek. "You look very pale."

Yukimura squeezed out a smile: "Really, maybe it's because of Tezuka's matter, how about it, did the doctor finally come to a conclusion?"

Atobe shook his head: "The situation is very bad. I plan to contact the hospital in Germany. They are more professional in this regard. Maybe there will be a better treatment plan."

"Alright." Yukimura nodded, and saw that Atobu's complexion was not very good, knowing that he was still worried about Heidei's defeat and Tezuka's old illness. "Everything will pass, with me."

Yukimura patted Atobe on the shoulder with a serious expression.

Atobe forced out a smile: "Of course."

It was night, Yukimura tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, and fell into the cycle of that weird ward nightmare again.

He ran in the empty and dark corridor of the ward, trying to leave this gloomy place, but every time he just left the hospital, he would be pulled back again, endlessly.

"It's a pity that there is no way to continue playing at such a young age."

"I heard it was a supernova, but I didn't expect it to fall like this."

Yukimura, who was lying on the ground, was forced to listen to those sympathetic words, and felt that it was ridiculous in his heart, but for some reason, a trace of approval and affirmation rose from the bottom of his heart.

"A miracle happens only once." He heard his own voice say. "You cannot be favored forever."

"Tennis is my life and I will do anything to win."

The chaotic voices continued to interweave and overlap, and finally became the last straw that crushed Yukimura.

……

"Your obsession is too heavy."

The crisp words like a basin of cold water completely woke up Yukimura, and Yukimura suddenly woke up from his dream, only to find that he was still in the bedroom.Everything just now was just a nightmare.

"It's just a dream." Yukimura patted his chest gratefully, got out of bed and opened the curtains, feeling the warm sunshine, his cold body gradually warmed up.He spread his five fingers, then clenched them into fists, took a deep breath, and felt his whole body come alive.

Suddenly the email notification sounded, and Yukimura turned on the phone, only to see Fuji send a sentence, "Let's meet at noon."

For the first time in his life, Yukimura felt awkward while holding the phone.

When I came to the restaurant that I had made an appointment with Fuji, it was still early, Yukimura ordered two drinks first, and then looked at the guests at the door from time to time, trying to find Fuji at the first time.

"Here!" Fuji indeed arrived on time.

"It's really early." Fuji sat down with a smile that was no different from usual.

"What do you want from me?" Yukimura cut straight to the point, "You asked me out at such a special time, you must have something to tell me, Zhou Zhu."

Fuji nodded: "Last night, Atobe and Tezuka proposed to help him contact a German hospital and go to Germany for treatment."

"Isn't that good? Germany's research in this area is the most advanced." Yukimura was a little puzzled.

"No, such an arrangement couldn't be better. I trust Atobe's vision." Fuji suddenly paused after speaking.

"But I did have a disagreement with Tezuka over that."

Yukimura opened his mouth in surprise: "Did you quarrel?"

Fuji shook his head: "How could Tezuka quarrel with me? It's just that I'm not very happy. I'm not sure if the arm can be cured, but as long as I think that he may not be able to continue playing in the future, I think that guy yesterday is simply too stupid! "

"If it was you, it would be impossible to give up easily under such circumstances." Yukimura looked down at the coffee cup on the table and chuckled, "It would be very uneasy for me."

"So you support him instead?" Fuji was a little surprised.

Yukimura shook his head: "That's not the case. After all, I'm just afraid of losing, while Tezuka-kun values ​​commitment. There is an essential difference between the two."

"In the future, our lives may not necessarily be closely related to tennis. Even in the worst situation, with Tezuka-kun's character, I believe he will be able to survive."

"It seems that you have confidence in Tezuka than yourself." Fuji finally showed his first sincere smile since we met.

"After all, he looks very reliable." Seeing Fuji smiled, Yukimura couldn't help joking, "Don't you know the best?"

The two inside were talking happily, and the two outside also met on a narrow road.

"Tezuka?" Atobe looked at the slightly embarrassed Tezuka in surprise.

"The Department of Traces."

The two stood face to face for ten seconds without saying a word, and then they spoke at the same time: "Why are you here?"

As soon as the words fell, Atobe didn't know how to answer.

The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

The waiter outside the door finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Why don't you two gentlemen talk inside?"

Atobe and Tezuka looked at each other, and both walked through the door.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, Atobe found Yukimura and Fuji who were sitting by the window with his keen insight. He wanted to walk to Yukimura, but when he saw Tezuka next to him, stopped.

"Are you here to find Fuji?" Atobe asked with a slightly inquiring expression.

Tezuka adjusted his glasses uncomfortably, and replied vaguely.

Yukimura and Fuji were in the middle of a chat, but his gaze inadvertently caught sight of two familiar figures standing in place not far away.

"Xiaojing? Tezuka?" The combination of these two people is really fresh, Yukimura looked at the same confused Fuji on the other side with some subtlety, "Have you dated Tezuka?"

"I was just about to ask if you had an appointment with Atobe." Fuji said, his eyes narrowed suddenly, and he showed a sly smile as if he suddenly realized, "Maybe it's a coincidence, so why not call them over to have lunch together."

Yukimura nodded and waved to Atobe.

After the four sat down, the waiter graciously brought out the menu for them to look at.

The atmosphere is awkward.

Yukimura pointed to the dishes on the menu and tried to break the silence: "This dish should be good."

"Ah, I like crabs, Atobe-kun shouldn't have any taboos." Fuji asked with a smile.

"No problem." Atobe shook his head, "I can eat whatever Jingichi likes."

The corners of Bu Er's mouth turned up brighter and brighter: "Hmm~ Let's add another steamed fish, Guoguang likes light ones."

Yukimura only felt that he had been shown a face of affection, and looked at Tezuka, who was as immobile as a mountain and extremely determined, and felt that he had underestimated the thickness of these two skins before.

The ordered food was served quickly, and only the sound of chewing was heard on the table.

Satisfied with food and drink, Yukimura asked about Tezuka's plan: "What do you think about going to Germany for treatment?"

Tezuka glanced at Fuji's face next to him: "Well, I plan to accept Atobe's kindness, and I may have to trouble Atobe next."

"It's nothing." Atobe waved his hand, this matter was a piece of cake for him, not to mention that Tezuka's injury was inextricably linked to him, it was hard to say clearly.

Fuji smiled and immediately changed the subject and chatted with Yukimura about the flower show. The two even planned to take a two-person trip to Osaka in the future, and took Shiraishi along the way.

Tezuka rubbed his nose, and felt that he couldn't get into the topic of the two, so he took the initiative to chat with Atobe about chess.

Both sides chatted quite happily, and in the end, everyone was happy.

After confirming the matter of going to Germany for treatment, Fuji seemed a lot more relaxed. Seeing him recovering his usual demeanor, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more gentle as Yukimura saw.

The author has something to say: a group of four is not a Shura field, Fujiko Village, Tezuka Atobe, can each group have fun.

This chapter is due to everyone, and the next chapter will be updated on Tuesday~ Don’t forget to comment. I feel that the little angels are less and less active recently. Is it because the weather is too hot?
