Draw a card? Draw a card? !

At the entrance of the castle, Fuji and Kote left to defend everyone's retreat, but they were stopped by two Clark's men as expected, and they were "forced" to play a doubles match in both directions.

Above the bridge, the tennis court paved with sand is not only slippery, but also the wind and sand raised will interfere with the players' sight.

However, Higa Junior High School Tennis Club trains on the beach all the year round. For this kind of venue, as a minister, the wooden hand is like a fish in water, and Fuer's excellent reflexes and light footsteps also quickly adapt to the environment here.

It's just that the courts in both directions are too troublesome. Fuji and Mushou are in the same court, but they have to deal with opponents from opposite directions. If one is not careful, their own people will collide first.

"Riding the stage on a white horse, Bu Er really stole all the focus." Mu Shou didn't worry too much about the unfavorable situation in front of him, but teased Bu Er with a slight smile.

He originally thought that he was going to fight against two people alone, but he didn't expect that at the last moment when the bridge was raised, Fuji Zhousuke appeared here on a white horse, leaping across the high-altitude planks.

It's really a real version of Prince Charming, but unfortunately he is not a princess.

The chestnut-haired boy stood with his racket and wooden hands behind his back, and replied with a smile when he heard this, his voice was gentle and natural, and there was a bit of inconspicuous helplessness.

"I didn't expect that Mu Shou said so ruthlessly that he wanted to leave, but in the end he wanted to guard the gate for everyone."

He clearly said in front of everyone, "Since the task is sent to me, it is over", he is actually a hard-spoken person with a soft heart, and his own rationality also allows him to consider things more comprehensively - all of them are concerned, but chaos, Completely forgot about the back road.

Pushing the glasses with wooden hands, he smiled lightly and didn't speak.

Buer really didn't expect to appear here, he is really a delicate young man.

Immediately afterwards, in the courtyard surrounded by walls around the castle, Keigo Atobe left to deal with this natural "tennis court that never goes out of bounds"; while Tezuka and Shiraishi ran into the person who attacked them that night in a hall, Automatically left to form doubles to deal with "the projected pitch of the boundary moment in motion".

Yukimura and Sanada followed the sound and walked all the way in. Before reaching the hall where Su Tanglinxiu and the others were, they were blocked by two people in the corridor.

One of the fat people was laughing, his expression was as excited as seeing some interesting and fun toy, and he joked: "Wow, it seems that you are out of luck!"

Yukimura Seiichi took a good look at the other party under the dim light, with a big round face, small glasses, a little dreadlocks, and an expression that didn't want to be beaten.

He reached out to take off the tennis bag on his shoulder, pulled out the racket, stretched his wrist, and asked Sanada softly, "Is that him?"

The tall and stern boy also picked up the racket, his sharp eyes looked at the fat man from beginning to end, and his heart felt inexplicably cold.

Sanada clenched the handle for an instant, and snorted coldly, "If Chi's description is correct, it's him." The villain who sneaked up on them!

Compared with the anger released by the deputy minister, Seiichi Yukimura nodded casually after hearing it, took off his sleeves and put the uniform jacket on his shoulders, and straightened the green hairband between his foreheads.

During this period, a pair of blue-purple eyes swept over Fatty and his companions, like sweeping over the stones that can be seen everywhere on the side of the road.

Facing the opponent who hurt his friend and his girl, he behaved politely, even with a smile on his lips, politely nodded and said: "You are indeed unlucky to meet us."

The fat man's expression was slightly stagnant, he didn't understand why the young man who had been looking soft and bullying just now suddenly changed his aura. Under the dim light in the corridor, he seemed to see a blue-purple cold light, but he was looking intently at it. found nothing.

Got stubbled.

This was Fatty's first reaction, but he quickly remembered their "secret weapon" and laughed wildly, "Who wouldn't talk big and want to beat us? Hahaha, let's try it!"

As soon as the words fell, a large semi-circular carved iron door fell from the ceiling between the two of them, and there was a huge "bang-" metal impact sound on the marble floor, which echoed continuously in the empty room.

The fat man grabbed a tennis ball and rushed towards Yukimura and Sanada with a racket. The green ball precisely passed through the irregular gaps in the carved gate, flew between the two of them non-stop, and hit the ground heavily. on the ground.

Yukimura and Sanada looked at each other and understood each other's intentions, then heard Fatty yelling, "If you want to beat us, hit the tennis ball first, you trash!"

"It seems that we don't need to keep our hands anymore?" The blue-purple-haired boy said calmly with a smile.

And Sanada frowned and looked at the carved iron gate that served as the net in front of him, calculating in his mind how much force it would take to break it down—that's right, the deputy minister didn't want to follow the rules set by the opponent from the beginning.

"Play tennis according to the rules! You people!" the boy shouted angrily.

In the hall, Su Tang raised his head if he felt something.

Did she seem to hear the sound of a gate or an iron gate?

Speaking of which, why are there so many traps and mechanisms to resist foreign enemies in the castle of Atobe? !

Keith was grabbing his racket and getting up.

Peter on the court is already on the decline. After Echizen Ryoma mastered the principle and timing of the formation of the "balloon", neither the third star nor the fifth star can stop his offensive, and Peter's tennis skills are not as good as Echizen's. Losing is only a matter of time.

Su Tang said calmly: "You'd better let him finish playing." She found out that Clark seems to have this problem. He doesn't play tennis well according to the rules.

Too bad.

Repeatedly preventing Echizen Ryoma from finishing the game, she was really afraid that the cat-eyed little prince would explode.

Keith was not in a hurry, and stood beside Su Tang with a cold face, and asked her in turn: "You said you didn't play tennis because you like it, why?"

This is what he can't understand the most.

Even if he got to the point where he is now, he still can't put down his racket, and he wants to continue playing tennis even if he bears the resentment and abuse of you.

What about Su Tang?

He has seen the young girl's wanton vigor on the court. That kind of happiness is not fake. Others can see her concentration and enjoyment immersed in the game or training. The warmth that seems to melt the heart.

Su Tang laughed lightly, raised her shoulders and stretched lazily, her slightly squinted eyes were shining with moist broken light, she sighed: "Ah, that..."

"Maybe I liked it at the beginning, and even speaking not so modestly, I think I still have some talent, but after I was a teenager, tennis became my money-making tool."

Su Tang tilted his head and looked at the dazed Keith, "Is it hard to imagine? But it's actually very simple."

"I was burdened with huge debts, but as a minor, I couldn't find a formal way to make money. At that time, playing tennis was the only way for me."

Keith frowned at her disapprovingly, his pale golden eyes were obscure, and he suddenly became more talkative, "I heard Lin Xiu said that China's welfare system is very good, and there are all kinds of benefits in schools. The bonus, at least the tuition fee..."

"My grades can indeed be exchanged for prize money in competitions, but..."

Su Tang interrupted Keith's words, but she really didn't want to say more. She always had mixed feelings when she mentioned school. It was the place where she could stay for a short time when she was most helpless, and also the place where she suffered the most rumors.

She closed her eyes before continuing: "But that's a drop in the bucket. Maybe I can continue my studies in a certain subject in the future, and I can go further and participate in higher-level competitions, but I don't have this environment, Keith. "

The girl couldn't accept the reality calmly at the beginning, but now she can talk about everything calmly.

"They, I mean those debt collectors, as long as I make sure that I can pay off the debt alive, they don't care if I'm disabled or useless, a girl, there are too many ways to exchange money for them..."

Panting, Seiichi Yukimura retracted his racket, helped Sanada, who was exhausted, and walked towards the wall, "How are you, Genichiro?" He sighed, "You are too persistent."

Even following Clark's unreasonable rules, couldn't he and Sanada win each other?However, his deputy minister was persistent and serious, and finally lost his strength the moment the carved iron gate fell to the ground under his "thunder" and "fire" attacks.

In the final match, Yukimura himself will face off against two opponents.

Sanada pulled the brim of his hat, moved the corners of his mouth weakly, but did not speak.

After the two rested for a while, Yukimura supported Sanada and walked slowly in. When passing by Fatty and his companions, he didn't even look at him.On the contrary, the fat man who had just escaped from the extinction of the five senses couldn't hide the panic on his face when he lay on the ground in embarrassment.

Is this really the strength of junior high school students? !Deform the iron gate and make people's five senses disappear? !

In the hall, Su Tang's voice was like flowing water, gurgling and cool.

"It's a joy and an honor for you to win a game, but for me, winning a game means that I can live longer and live a little easier... for a period of time.

My daily life is tennis, tennis, tennis. I don't have time to say I'm tired, and I don't have the right to say I don't want to play. "

The girl frowned as she spoke, as if she was physically disgusted with that time, and she didn't pay any attention to the two people standing silently at the entrance of the hall.

"What you can see now, whether my tennis ability or technique is good, I was forced to come out. When you were in school, I was paying off debts. You have parents who cook delicious food as rewards, so I just bought them. Drink glucose to maintain strength."

"I will do anything to survive."

Su Tang looked at Keith quietly, and asked him with a smile: "Keith, have you been forced to this point?"

"Sometimes I envy you very much. Whether you yearn for the light or sink into the darkness, you have Lin Xiu to accompany you..."

"I brazenly said that I can win against people who are stronger than me, not to say how strong I think my ability is, but... I think that since I can get through that period of time, I think I am strong, since Once I get out, nothing can stop me.

The most embarrassing days are nothing more than that, how can it be worse. "

Su Tang shrugged pretending to be relaxed, and said helplessly: "You feel hopeless now, what about me?"

There was something fluttering in the eyes of the pale blond man, looking straight at her, his fingers slightly curled up on the racket, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "So...why do you continue to play tennis?"

Once those things in the past are exposed, you will also be criticized, won't you?

Su Tang lowered his head and smiled happily when he heard the words. There seemed to be relief, unwillingness and struggle in his words, but in the end it was a sigh of compromise with fate.

"Although that is not the life I want...or to some extent, tennis carries my most painful memories, but in the end...go round and round, I still like tennis."

"So I'm back again."

From the ground, back into the sun.

After Su Tang finished speaking, he took two steps forward, stood behind Keith and gave him a nudge. On the field opposite him, Echizen Ryoma was already waiting with his racket.

Keith looked at her sideways. After the girl behind her told a story, her face turned serious and serious. She said firmly:

"You use tennis to hurt others. This is not revenge. Using the name of the Clark Organization to suppress opponents unscrupulously in the dark is not called courage."

"Real courage is whether you can face up to your mistakes after you have gone through all this—even if you are scared to death, you must die in the sun."

There seemed to be broken stars in her eyes, and she tempted him to whisper: "Keith, stop here, and look up at the real Milky Way.

In the vast universe, we are already so small, if you don't care about yourself, no one will care about you. "

Su Tang glanced meaningfully at the black-haired man in the corner, bent his lips and signaled to Keith, "If you want others to love you all the time, you have to love yourself first."
