Natural cute girl

"About...an hour?" Hanahara Ryo stared at the hour hand on the watch that had already passed the number 9, with an uncertain tone.

"Is one hour short?" You raised your eyebrows.

"But Jingwu hasn't played yet..." Innocent.

The girl pitifully bit her lip and glanced casually at the game situation inside the barbed wire fence. It happened that Shindo Ryo made a counterattack and smashed the flying ball back to the opposite field. Teishishido wins, 6-0."

After speaking, I heard earth-shattering cheers from the support team and cheerleaders.

The victory of the game naturally attracted the attention of Atobe Keigo and Hanahara Ryo. The two did not discuss any more about the issue of being late. On the contrary, Atobe was a little unhappy that the game had dragged on for too long. "Shishido What is that guy doing, didn't he say it will be done in 20 minutes? Hey, Huadi?"

"wushi."

"You're annoying, Atobe..." Apparently hearing Keigo Atobe's undisguised comment just now, Shido Ryo turned his head and retorted unconvincedly, looking at him, he seemed to be convinced that he was dragging the game It's a shame it's been so long.

"If it's my uncle, it will be done in 15 minutes." Swearing that this sounded very arrogant and arrogant, Keigo Atobe habitually rubbed the girl next to her, whose starry eyes were shining because of her gorgeousness. With long blond hair, she turned and left, "Xiaoliang, Huadi, let's go."

"wushi."

"Eh? Where are we going, Jingwu? Don't we wait for Shishido?"

Hanahara coolly ran a few steps to catch up with the tall and proud figure of the young man in front of him, and then heard the cheering from the cheerleaders and support groups behind him. I admire the staying power of these people in my heart.

"Idiot, Shishido is different from your confused personality, he will follow up by himself."

"What about Shinozu and Jiro?" She didn't seem to even see their shadows...

"They don't have a game today, so they may not come."

Regarding the arrangement of players in the capital competition, Ice Emperor only sent three main candidates.

Both doubles [-] and doubles [-] are the quasi-choice players of the tennis club, but the quasi-choices belong to the quasi-choice players. They are not at the same level as the main players. The third singles players are Shishido Ryo and Kawachi The Japanese part is Singles [-] and Singles [-] respectively.

Such an arrangement is actually the safest in Atobe Keigo's opinion.

For one thing, even if the doubles team loses in a row, they can regain the disadvantage in the singles game. Second, if they win the doubles game, the game can end after the singles game is over. In any case, it can be regarded as a sure thing.

Yet accidents always come when the mind is at its proudest summit.

No one could have predicted that such an insurance arrangement would fail miserably to a small school that was completely unknown before the game. - Fudo Peak.

Volume 6 ◇166◆ Is it too much

Although there was a sea of ​​people in front of him, and his ears were full of noise and noisy cover-ups, Hua Yuanliang stood outside the crowd but could still clearly hear the sound of the referee reporting the score.

……

"The game is over, the number of rounds is 6-4, and the combination of Ishida and Sakurai from Fudo Peak won."

……

"The game is over, the number of rounds is 6-1, and the winner is the combination of Ibu and Kamio from Fudo Peak."

……

"The game is over, the number of rounds is -6-0, and the winner is Tachibana from Fudo Peak."

……

"3-0, Fudo Peak wins."

The end of the game was already in the evening, and the sun was setting. Everyone's shadows were stretched for a long time, as if they were scrambling to extend to places that people could not see.

Hyotei lost to Fudo Peak in the quarterfinals.

This means that Shindo Ryo, who lost 6-0 to Fudomine Minister Tachibana Kippei, will be removed from the list of candidates.

Shishido, who has been practicing hard every day in order to improve his tennis, is about to be expelled...

Ryo Hanahara looked at Ryo Shishido, who was silently walking at the end of the line with a tennis bag on his back, bowing his head, and the faint red light shone on his long brown-red hair, which hung down softly, looking lifeless. He looked completely lonely.

Just at this glance, she suddenly felt that Bingdi's system was much crueler than she imagined.

On the way back, the group of people who came to participate in the competition were all relatively silent. Keigo Atobe was at the front and kept on the phone. He was probably reporting the situation of the competition with Director Sakaki and discussing the replacement of the main election. .

Ryo Hanahara and Huachi walked side by side a few steps behind him. Huadi's tall and strong physique was not in proportion to the girl's petite and exquisite physique, but as far as other people present were concerned, they were Keigo Atobe's best friend. The two people who trust, and are also the two people who trust Keigo Atobe the most.

I don’t know how long the phone conversation lasted. It wasn’t until I walked out of the arena that Jing Wu put down the phone, turned to the others and said, “It’s getting late, you all go back, Shishido, remember to come to the studio to find me when I’m working on Monday.”

"I see……"

Needless to say, do not know how to justify.

Shido Ryo has always been a person who is not very good at talking. He is not as eloquent as Ninzu, not as humble and shy as Feng, not as shabby as Jirou, (...) and he is not like Xianghi. Throwing feet seems to be acting like a baby.

Losing is losing, which only shows that he is not strong enough.

However, is it really necessary to disqualify him from the main election after losing a game?

Hanahara Ryo remembered hearing from two reporters outside that during the match, the one who played against Shishido was one of the former Kyushu duo, and he had the level to qualify for the national competition.

Is it impossible to be tolerant of losing to such an opponent?

"Kinggo...Shishido..."

The girl stretched out her hand to grab the hem of the boy's clothes in front of her, but when the boy turned around, she said very hesitantly.

She really didn't know where to start with such words of pleading and questioning.

"Huh? What do you want to say?"

"That... I want to say, isn't it a bit... too much for Jingwu to disqualify Shishido from the main election?"

"This is the meaning of supervision and the rules of Ice Empress. Could it be that you have been a manager for a year and still don't know this?" Is it too much?He didn't think about it, not to mention that this rule has been implemented in Ice Empress for more than two years.

Volume 6 ◇167 ◆Important Friend

"No, I... didn't mean that." The girl shook her head frequently upon hearing this.

"My lord knows what you mean."

Atobe Keigo sighed thoughtfully, glanced leisurely at the corner of the street where people come and go, and said in a low voice, "As long as Shishido keeps working hard, it is still possible to become the main election again."

"Really?" The dull purple eyes suddenly lit up, "Did you lie to me?"

"Tell me... When did my uncle lie to you?"

"Yeah... no~ Every time Jing Wu says he wants to take me to eat dessert, he will do it~"

Shaking his head without thinking, he quickly chose the latter between suspicion and trust, and the heavy weight on his heart seemed to suddenly fall because of the boy's words.

The girl squinted her eyes and smiled very sweetly. Occasionally, a lavender luster emerged from her slender eyebrows, like a gemstone soaked in water whose brilliance is refracted by the water waves.

However, the next sentence of Atobe Keigo's funny words made her fall into deep thought.

"Xiao Liang, I remember that you were not someone who cared about these things before."

"Eh……?"

Hanahara was stunned.

In fact, she herself never thought that one day she would worry about people and things other than those two things.

In the past, she would be cautious because she was worried that the dessert would be taken away by others, and she would also worry that Keigo Atobe was in a bad mood and thought she was troublesome, so she desperately wanted to change herself so that she would not look so useless.

But since she transferred to Bingdi, in less than a year, she would worry about others while worrying about those.

She will think about when that guy who endured his feet will be able to find a girl and fall in love safely?

Would you consider whether Jiro failed the exam again because of snooze?

Would you consider whether Feng's serving rate has improved?Has Xiang Ri's physical strength improved while playing?Is Hiyoshi's expression still so gloomy?

All of this was something she had never thought about, nor dared to think about.

So why did this change happen?Is it because the time spent in contact with everyone has become longer?

Or because...

She raised her eyes to look at the boy, and smiled, "Because Jingwu is here."

Can't be more wrong...that's the answer.

Because of Jingwu, she will come into contact with everyone who treats people so sincerely.

Because of Jingwu's presence, everyone accepted her sudden intrusion, so that as time went by, her character of not caring about anything was gradually infected by these bright and different teenagers.

So for Hanahara Ryo now, except Keigo Atobe who is the most important person, everyone else is an important friend.

"You..."

Atobe Keigo looked at the warm smile on the girl's lips and stroked her forehead helplessly.

She always has a way to poke the contact point that he will be moved by a casual sentence, so that he doesn't know whether what she said is unintentional or intentional every time.

So, Master Atobe was so gorgeous and speechless.

"But..." She put away her smile, as if suddenly recalling something bad, the girl frowned and said in frustration, "Did Ice Empress lose today? Will he not be able to participate in the next round after losing?" Is there a match?"

"Huh? I don't even know that you still have such a sense of collective honor?" Keigo Atobe
