[Volleyball Boys] Youth to be continued

"Huh? Be...your guardian?"

Takeda Kazutsu thought he had heard it wrong, and Aoi Yumi was not an orphan whose parents both died. Even if her parents divorced and became a guardian, it would never be his turn as a distant uncle.

"Well, I'm sorry, maybe I was too vague." The girl pushed the document in front of her again, "Of course the legal guardian is still my father, just because I want to come here to study and rent a house. An adult with relatives here will sign as a guarantor, after all, I am only 16 years old."

"..."

Takeda Kazutsu finally understood what she meant, but...

"Xiao Hai, you said... you came here to study?"

"Um, can you?"

"It's not a question of whether or not..."

A 16-year-old girl, far away from her parents, came to this kind of town to study... Although she is considered to be from Miyagi Prefecture, and her birthplace is not far from Sendai City, but her current school status should still be in Tokyo ...Also, even though she has left the original idol group, she is still a celebrity, how could she think of coming here...

"Uncle, I know what you're thinking."

The girl sitting on the opposite side seemed to be able to see through everything with her beautiful eyes, and she continued to say with a calm expression: "I was studying in a communication school arranged by the office in Tokyo before, and I have already withdrawn from school. Regarding household registration and school registration The people on my father's side have already done it for me to change the procedures and so on, now, all you need to do is sign on your side."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Takeda Kazutsu always felt that the girl's tone was unusually indifferent when she mentioned "father".

"...Also, regarding the new school, I originally thought about going to a private school in Sendai City, but you know the tuition fees of a private school... and since I know you teach at Karasuno High School, I feel like coming here to study It's not bad, although my previous academic performance was not very good, but I believe it should be no problem to get admitted here."

While the girl was talking, Takeda Kazutsu roughly flipped through the documents she gave. Indeed, the relevant procedures have basically been completed, and only he, the guarantor, is required to sign. decision made.

"I see."

Although there are still many doubts in his heart, but facing the girl's sincere eyes, Takeda Kazutsu decided to respect her choice, but...

"Xiao Hai, about the place to live, you just said that you plan to rent a house, have you already looked at the house?"

"not yet."

"Well, how about..."

Originally I wanted to say whether to live with me, but considering that he himself lives in an apartment arranged by the school, and he is a young single man, although he is an elder, it is quite inappropriate to live under the same roof with his 16-year-old niece. After thinking for a while, he said:

"...The house next to my house is just vacant, and the rent is also cheap, why don't you think about it."

Chapter 2 girl with short chestnut hair

Takeda Kazutsu felt more and more that compared to the students he faced every day, Aoi Hami was indeed more mature than his peers.

She made all decisions decisively, such as signing the lease agreement, paying a security deposit, asking the landlord about the time for garbage sorting and recycling, and the precautions for the apartment. She also showed the calmness of an adult.

Sure enough, those who have stayed in the entertainment industry are different...

"Qing...Miss Qingjing, my son is your fan, can you sign an autograph for him?"

"Yes, yes...but I'm just an ordinary person now."

"It doesn't matter, even for ordinary people, the halo of the past is still there!"

"……thanks."

Indeed, as the landlord said, even though he has regained his status as an ordinary person, Aoi Yumi still seems to have the aura of an idol on him.

First of all, her appearance - no matter how you look at it, you don't look like an ordinary high school student, with exquisite and beautiful features, and a tall and slender figure wrapped in a wide hoodie... Even if she doesn't seem to be as bright as she looks on TV Cheerful, but that indifferent temperament made her even more eye-catching.

No wonder the boss was so excited that he couldn't speak when he was at the Chinese restaurant. Although he only remembered the name of the group and their hit song, but couldn't remember her name, he still recognized her as the Celebrities who have attended the Red and White Song Concert, ask her to take a group photo and sign everything.

Takeda Kazutsu thought in his heart, "She probably will encounter a lot of troubles like this in the future." After seeing the girl cooperating with the autograph and taking a photo, with one sentence, the boss dispelled the urge to hang the photo with her in the store.

"I am an ordinary person now. According to the law, portraits of ordinary people are not allowed to be displayed in public without my permission."

*****

The final exam is just around the corner.

Because it is related to whether his teammates can successfully participate in the Tokyo expedition, so... For such a small probability event that "meeting a former national idol in the locker room" that is almost never thought of in life, Takashi Sugawara tried his best to face it with a peaceful mind .

However, unlike him who can control his emotions... The other two parties involved, Ryunosuke Tanaka and Yuu Nishiya, seemed unable to maintain their composure at all. It can't be Karasuno!" topic.

Xi Guxi insisted that the "here" the girl said was just a reference, and that she would definitely study in a well-known private school in downtown Sendai, and it was impossible for her to choose a public school in a town like Karasuno.

"Although our girls' uniforms are super pretty, Yumi-chan will definitely be super cute wearing them... But, no! I can't imagine this! How can I think of girls other than Jiezi-san!"

"Jiezi San, I'm sorry! Even if Yu Weichan transfers here to go to school, I swear I won't look at her more!"

"Dragon! I said that Yu Weichan definitely didn't mean that!"

"That's what she meant! Otherwise, why would she hang out at our school!"

"Absolutely not!"

Watching the two arguing endlessly, Takashi Sugawara finally couldn't help but patted them on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "San Aoi said to keep us secret, you are talking so loudly to let others know ?"

"Well……"

His words really had an effect, the two youths who were full of vigor immediately shut up, and turned their energy to training... and reviewing.

The most important thing right now is the final exam.

Regarding the Tokyo Expedition... Takeda-sensei managed to win such a rare opportunity for everyone. No one wants to be left behind by the big team because they failed the exam.

Seeing Tanaka Ryunosuke and Nishitani Yu finally back to normal, Sugawara Takae breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, after yesterday's chance encounter, he deliberately went online to carefully read the graduation notice about Yumi Aoi published on MKV48's official blog. Quit", "Because of psychological problems, I can no longer move forward with other members", "After graduation, I will become an ordinary person and continue to study" and so on.

He also took a quick look at the comments on this matter on the BBS. Many fans speculated that Aoi Yumi could not resist the pressure and quit, because she was able to get the third place in the general election because of how many oil kings (one Fans who voted hundreds or thousands of votes), compared to other members, she has no special abilities other than good-looking and bright smile. She will pay attention to MKV48 because of her cuteness and beauty, jump into the pit of MKV48, but will soon retweet other members.

The comments on the Internet are often unscrupulous, and there are even a lot of weird personal attacks. Takashi Sugawara looked at it for a while and then closed the webpage.

Although as a real ordinary person, the show business circle is completely another world to him.

But for being able to meet Aoi Yumi by chance, he took it as a lucky omen.

Just like him, Sawamura Daichi, and Dongfeng Asahi, the third graders who thought they would retire after the IH competition and concentrate on entering higher education... Now they are also affected by the influence of the first graders, and they are reborn in their hearts. Anticipation ignited.

Even being able to meet celebrities by chance... Does that also mean that the oath they made to enter the country is not just a dream?

His teammates are very strong, not only that, but also the coaches, consultants, and managers are also very strong.

In this period of youth that is only once and cannot be repeated.

What he can do is to go all out to surpass the predicament in front of him and get infinitely close to his dream.

"Come on."

He pushed the annotated test questions in front of the two juniors, Nishitani Yuri and Tanaka Ryunosuke, and smiled at Hinata Shouyang and Kageyama Feixiong who were still receiving tutoring from Yanji Jinka:

"I believe you will definitely not fail."

*****

[Youth that cannot be repeated,

At any time, we must go all out]

The store passing by is playing the most popular song of MKV48 so far, called "Full Forward".

Because the melody is good and brainwashing, the lyrics are catchy, plus the magical dance moves... After a few years of lukewarm debut, the operating accounts have been in the red, and the company began to rely on continuous external signings (maybe "selling" is more appropriate) After the members went to other offices to maintain operating funds... This song finally gave them their first taste of popularity.

Everything came very quickly.

The company is very good at seizing the opportunity. Taking advantage of the momentum, it immediately launched a late-night drama series starring all members of the group, and concentrated its resources on a few popular members, so that they can continue to appear on variety shows to increase their exposure. The selection general election that excited the entire entertainment circle was launched.

In this era of rapid change, there are too many "one-shot houses"-the number of short-lived stars is too high to count.

But they are not.

They'll stay on fire for a few more years until...

【What is your most regretful thing? 】

Before she died, she heard a voice, like a ray of light passing through the thick fog, which made her clearly see the truest thoughts in her heart.

【youth】

Feeling the severe pain coming from her whole body, she replied in her heart.

Various pictures kept passing through my mind like a revolving lantern, and she in those pictures—all had the same bright smile as if copied and pasted.

Brilliant, but hypocritical.

Like a gorgeous and beautiful doll, or a well-packaged commodity.

【youth? 】

【Well, youth】

She reached out, held the light, and nodded firmly in her heart.

【I really, really want to experience a normal youth】

*****

Until now it has no real feeling.

The girl who was in a serious car accident on her 20th birthday and was on the verge of death would come back to life.

Moreover, time went back a few years...

Facing the self at the age of 16, who won the support of a lot of fans because of being carefully packaged and performed well by the company, and won the No.3 general election... She thought of a series of things that would happen in the years since then , and, the voice of the heart heard before dying.

If all of this is a chance given to her by God.

So, let's start all over again.

Again, make a choice.

All over again.

Embark on a new path.

...to realize, new dreams.

*****

"Xiao Hai, you..."

On this day, Takeda Kazutsu, who finished all work and returned to the apartment, originally wanted to see how his niece who lived next door was packing up, and then cared about whether she had a good meal, and told her the time of the transfer exam by the way... Unexpectedly What greeted us was a head of chestnut short hair with uneven color. The bangs were uneven as if they had been chewed by a dog... The whole head was like a chestnut. At first glance, I thought it was a boy's... Former national idol .

"...how did you get your hair like this?"

As the girl's uncle, as a straight man who deeply believes that "a girl suddenly cuts her hair short, it means something is wrong!" Takeda Kazutsu shouted in his heart, "Sure enough, what happened to Xiaohai? Otherwise, how could he be so overwhelmed?" !", and had to sigh, "Sure enough, she looks good with such a messy hairstyle."

"...Well, I just wanted to cut it a little bit shorter." The girl stuck out her tongue, as if she was a little helpless, "In the end, I was a little bit harsher, and I accidentally trimmed it a few more times, and it changed like this."

Why do you want to cut it yourself!Although the town is small, there are barbershops!Although the masters in the barber shop are not as good as those handsome guys with English name tags in the famous brand salons in Tokyo, it is still possible to cut girls' hair!

At this moment, Takeda Kazutetsu felt as if a thousand horses were galloping past, but then he thought that his niece might be considered a celebrity, perhaps because he was afraid of going out to cut her hair and be recognized as troublesome, so he swallowed all the complaints Then he pulled out the standard elder caring expression.

"...Did the color, the color, be dyed by yourself?"

"Well, since it's all cut like this, I might as well add some color. I used the foam hair dye sold in the convenience store. It's quite convenient."

"..."

Facing the calm niece who had her hair done like this, Takeda Kazutetsu suddenly lamented once again that she was born in the entertainment industry, and she was different from ordinary children.

"Well, anyway, as long as you're happy... By the way..." After he finished speaking with the panacea line, he suddenly remembered the key message he wanted to convey this time:

"...Xiao Hai, your transfer exam is scheduled for this weekend, but I will go to Tokyo with the kids from the volleyball club to participate in camp training this weekend, so I can't accompany you to take the exam."

*****

"Hey, failing teenagers, get in the car."

At noon on Saturday, Tobio Kageyama and Xiangyang Hinata, who finally passed the make-up exam, rushed out of the classroom together.

... They were almost abandoned by the main force because they failed the final exam, and finally they are going to start their own expedition to Tokyo!

And the knight who brought them to that city was waiting at the school gate, senior Tanaka Ryunosuke's older sister Tanaka Yako, and...

"Eh?"

Noticing a slender figure with a mask and short chestnut hair sitting on the back seat of Tanaka Yako's pickup truck, Tobio Kageyama was stunned for a moment, while Xiangyang Hinata who jumped into the passenger seat, because he was always very spontaneous familiar, so strike up a conversation immediately.

"You, you belong to sister Yazi..."

"Hello...you guys."

Through the mask, a somewhat hoarse female voice came.

Is it a girl?Glancing at the person beside him, who had messy chestnut short hair and bangs that looked like a dog had eaten through it, Tokio Kageyama was taken aback again.

"She's your Takeda-sensei's niece, she just finished the transfer exam, and now she's going to Tokyo with you."

"Hey! Is it Takeda-sensei's niece!" Zilai Shuri Xiangyang smiled instantly, and his tone was a little excited, "I've never heard him mention it! Are you going to transfer to our school? What grade are you in? By the way By the way, my name is Hinata Xiangyang, and I am currently in the first year of high school!"

"Hinata-kun, let's talk later." Tanaka Yako reminded from the side, "We are leaving, otherwise it will be too late."

"Okay! Thank you, Sister Yazi!"

"Well, sit still~!"

I have to say that Tanaka Yako is indeed the older sister of Tanaka Ryunosuke, her driving skills are just like her younger brother's performance on the field, full of huge explosive power... Ever since the car started, Tobio Kageyama was in a state of being at any time. In the state of being thrown out by the mysterious power that surrounded him, he didn't hear clearly what Hinata Xiangyang sitting in the front row and his niece Takeda beside him were talking about.

Until...he closed his eyes in a drowsy state, half asleep and half awake, and vaguely heard a husky female voice from beside him saying softly, "My name is AoiUmi, and I am a freshman in high school just like Hinata-kun."

Aoi Umi?blue ocean?

What kind of magical name is this?

"Hey! Your name is amazing!" Hinata Xiangyang, as always, made a fuss about everything, "It's so handsome when you read it! What kind of Chinese characters are written!"

"Well, cyan, cyan..."

I don't know if it was because the voices of the people beside him were too hypnotic, or the steady speed of the car made him feel at ease—after a while, he fell into a real deep sleep.

until……

"Guru..."

Until, the hunger signal from his stomach woke him up.

He straightened his back and noticed that the person beside him had fallen asleep leaning against the car window, so he took out a seaweed rice ball from his bag, and while eating, he listened to the conversation between Yazi sister in front of him and Hinata Xiangyang, who had always been very energetic, about The matter of Karasuno's little giant.

The sun outside the window kept tilting westward.

With the setting sun burning all over the scenery outside the window, the gate of Yinkoma High School finally appeared in sight.

Sister Yazi's hearty voice came next: "OK, boys—we're here~!"

*****

When he saw that the person who pushed open the gate of the gymnasium was Ryunosuke Tanaka's sister, Takashi Sugawara breathed a sigh of relief.

Great, Hinata, Kageyama, you have finally arrived.

Sighing so, he was preparing to meet two troubled children who had finally passed the make-up exam to catch up with the training, but he didn't expect to find a...some familiar figure following the two of them.

Eh?

This, this person is...

"Little sea."

Seeing Takeda-sensei calling "Umi-chan" softly, and then hurriedly walking over to pull this person out of the gymnasium, Takae Sugawara's heart shuddered, and his guess became more certain.

"Xiao Hai, what's wrong with you?"

Inside the gymnasium, everyone's attention was on Hinata and Kageyama. Outside the gymnasium, Takashi Sugawara subconsciously followed Takeda Kazutsu's footsteps.

"Are you uncomfortable? The voice on the phone is not right. I told you that if you are uncomfortable, don't come."

"It's ok."

The sky had already darkened, and there was still a ray of light around.

A hoarse female voice, mixed in the summer wind and the bursts of cicadas, brushed past the ear.

"I just want to see what it's like to live in a club, I've never seen it before..."

"I understand, but if you are really sick, you must go to the hospital."

It's not good to eavesdrop on someone's conversation.

Takashi Sugawara thought about it, and decided to turn back.

After all... He has already confirmed that this girl with short messy chestnut hair, a mask, and a large men's hoodie, whose voice has become hoarse for some reason, should be the one he met in the club room before... Hami Aoi That's right.

It turned out that she and Takeda-sensei knew each other.

but……

"Well... I'm not sick, I'm just..."

The next moment, the lights in the corridor were turned on.

Vision becomes clear in an instant.

Crossing Takeda Kazutsu's thin back, Takashi Sugawara, who was about to turn around, suddenly saw Hami Aoi, who was standing in front of the teacher, took off his mask, and then revealed her red and swollen... like two hot dog intestines lips, said calmly:

"...I ate a few mouthfuls of [-] times spicy mapo tofu this morning, and that's it."
