Autumn famous mountain bike god is reborn

Is the new RedSuns team?

Zhong Liyi led the team to the checkout area at the door, silently speechless.

Now that RedSuns is going to accept a newcomer, is it already so strict and formal?

Ryosuke Takahashi, who is the number one, and Keisuke Takahashi, the second-ranked younger brother in the powerful team, actually presided over the interview in person, and Shi Hao, who looked like a tiger with a smiling face, was also there.

But that brat is too young to be too young.

Zhong Liyi thought about it for a while, and settled the bill for helping the team members.

There were only a dozen cars scattered in the parking lot around the restaurant, and the members of the NightKids team naturally parked their cars together.

When Nakasato walked towards his favorite car GTR-32, the team member who had been looking around said again: "Hey, Yi, Takahashi Ryosuke's FC and Takahashi Keisuke's FD are parked over there!"

"They are all sitting in the restaurant, what's so strange about parking here?"

Zhongliyi said casually, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the two well-known cars in Qunma.

He was about to turn his gaze back to his R-32 when he suddenly noticed something and suddenly looked in that direction again.

The next moment, he showed astonishment, and blurted out: "AE86?"

The panda-colored car sandwiched by Takahashi Ryosuke's white FC and Takahashi Keisuke's yellow FD is definitely the old car model AE86 from more than ten years ago!

What's interesting is that the parking positions of these three cars are exactly the same as they were in the booth just now.

On the other hand, Shi Hao is in charge of logistics and contacting other teams in the RedSuns team who is particularly particular about his work. He usually sits in the ONEBOX of the logistics department, and it is impossible to suddenly drive any AE86.

Then the identity of the owner of this old car is ready to be revealed.

Ninety percent of it belongs to the new face in the store just now: the new RedSuns team member who looks dull from head to toe and has no racing car temperament.

Zhong Liyi's eyes widened in disbelief.

What happened to Ryosuke Takahashi?

Actually let RedSuns degenerate to the point that even novices who drive 86 are included in the team... His brain must be broken, right?

"There are still drivers driving AE86 cars these days? Isn't it?" Not only Zhong Liyi saw the 86, but also the team members around him.

They were stunned for a moment, and then one of them couldn't help laughing out loud: "Is the current RedSuns so easy to advance, and the scrap iron with less than 160 horsepower can do it? It seems that we can let our second-line drivers try it." Get into the front line of the RedSuns."

"Shut up and go back."

Zhong Liyi always disliked talking behind others' backs, but now he lowered his face and stopped the team members from ridiculing.

Soon, several cars, led by a black GTR-32, drove away from the restaurant quietly.

Among the four of Takahashi Ryosuke who had just sat down, only Shi Hao, who was positioned at the right angle to observe the direction of the door, noticed the members of the Nightkids who had left.

At this time, I couldn't help but said to Takahashi Ryosuke: "The few just now should be members of the Myogi Nightkids team."

"Ah."

Takahashi Ryosuke was obviously not interested in this topic, and after a casual response, he pushed the menu that the waiter had just delivered to Takumi, and said with a slight smile, "This time I invite you, just order what you like, don't be polite. "

"How can it be!" Fujiwara Takumi, who was still frowning and looking at the menu seriously, quickly waved his hand and refused: "I have money with me, so I don't need you to pay me, Mr. Ryosuke."

"I forced you to come here, of course I can't let you spend money." Takahashi Ryosuke smiled, his tone was very consistent, but there was an unquestionable determination: "I hope you don't refuse."

"Fujiwara Takumi, just listen to your elder brother." Keisuke Takahashi, who had been fiddling with the straw in the drink cup, lazily helped a few words: "This is not a particularly expensive place. You can push it again. Back and forth, I didn’t care at first, but if this continues, I’m going to starve to death.”

Takumi frowned in embarrassment, but there were RedSuns people in front and left and right: "But——"

"Keisuke!" Shi Hao yelled helplessly, and said to Takumi who was a little at a loss: "Ryosuke is right, we insisted on inviting you to come out for a chat, and we should have invited you, so you don't You're welcome."

Takumi had no choice: "...that's fine. Thank you."

Just a simple meal at a family restaurant, of course, is nothing, and an hour of part-time work can earn you back.

But it reminded him that when he participated in Plan D, Mr. Ryosuke paid for the board, lodging and car expenses of the expedition.

After belatedly realizing this, Fujiwara Takumi's face suddenly became hot.

Maybe it was because I was too poor at that time, and Mr. Ryosuke's attitude was so natural and tough when he proposed these things, that I didn't realize anything wrong until the end of the plan.

When Mr. Ryosuke invited him to join the team, he said that he organized the team to realize his personal wish, so the expenses were of course his responsibility.

But later he found out that he was the one who actually took countless benefits in Plan D.

The expedition is of course very hard, but with the advancement of Plan D, he can always meet strong opponents and improve by competing with them.

At the same time, under the careful guidance of Mr. Ryosuke, the necessary knowledge of machinery has been continuously increased.

The daily maintenance and lightweight modification of the 86 is also a huge expense that he cannot afford for part-time jobs.

Not to mention that after each victory, he also gained a seemingly intangible but infinitely beneficial reputation, which allowed him to receive an offer from a professional team before the end of Project D.

And all of this is based on Mr. Ryosuke's generous spending of money and energy.

At that time, besides trying his best to win every game, he had nothing to repay Mr. Ryosuke... But even without those rewards, he was eager to be recognized by Mr. Ryosuke with a smile, and he would definitely do his best of.

Thinking of this, after ordering a bowl of tonkotsu udon casually, Fujiwara Takumi fell into depression and entanglement again.

If Fujiwara Takumi, who is really eighteen or nineteen years old, can probably still accept these things with a cheeky face...

Psychologically, he is 28 years old and a little older than Mr. Ryosuke, but he just can't be indifferent.

Fujiwara Takumi broke off the disposable bamboo chopsticks with a deep expression, thinking hard.

What should he do to repay Mr. Ryosuke who gave him great help at the beginning?Is it enough to run mountain roads with Mr. Ryosuke?

In the future, he still wants to participate in Plan D.If it is said that he is responsible for the expenses and reduces the troubles caused to Mr. Liangjie, then the current savings figure is undoubtedly still far from the target.

"If you don't move, the noodles won't taste good."

Takumi was still distracted when he was awakened by Mr. Ryosuke's smiling reminder.

He looked down, only to find that the perfectly shaped egg that lay on top of the pork bone noodles had been accidentally poked to pieces with the tip of his chopsticks.

"what!"

He felt sorry for the egg, and quickly started to eat the noodles.

Sitting next to Takumi's right, Takahashi Keisuke, who had been staring at him from the corner of his eyes for a long time, saw that the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and slowly ate his share of spaghetti.

"Ryosuke, is coffee enough for you?"

Shi Hao, who was still waiting for his share of ramen, couldn't help but be concerned.

"Ah."

Ryosuke Takahashi, who was not hungry at first but was just looking for an excuse to invite Fujiwara Takumi, picked up the cup casually and took a sip copiously.

After he put down the cup, he took out a few napkins from the small box on one side and handed them to Takumi who was opposite him: "It got on the corner of my mouth."

Takumi quickly took it and whispered, "Thank you."

Obviously it was just a handy gesture of handing over a tissue, and the conversation was just a few sentences...

Shi Hao's face showed confusion, he didn't know why, but he always felt weird.

Perhaps it is because Ryosuke is always the most silent one in this kind of restaurant gathering, even if the topic usually falls on him, he is indifferent and rarely participates in the topic.

But when Fujiwara Takumi was present, the person who talked the least turned out to be the one who talked the most.

And still take the attitude of a very natural caregiver.

Uh, maybe it's because Fujiwara Takumi is relatively young?

Shi Hao saw the same sauce on the corner of his mouth, but instead of being treated by Ryosuke handing over a tissue, Keisuke who just wiped it off with the back of his hand... became more and more silent.

Ryosuke Takahashi, who only ordered a cup of coffee as a symbol, waited patiently for Fujiwara Takumi to finish the bowl of noodles. When waiting for the drink to arrive, he finally said: "If I remember correctly, you once said that you have helped the family Have you delivered the goods for five years?"

Fujiwara Takumi nodded subconsciously: "That's right."

Takahashi Ryosuke looked at him gently: "Do you mind if I ask, how do you improve your skills while running? It's really hard to imagine that you can have such excellent driving skills just by delivering goods every day."

"In the beginning, I just wanted to go home and sleep earlier, and it would be too boring to drive normally, so every time I go down the mountain, I will try to shorten the time." Fujiwara Takumi said shyly: "If Mr. Ryosuke wants to ask If the focus is on moving the center of gravity, it was my father who decided it.”

For the convenience of explanation, he directly took the paper cup at hand, poured the water to four-fifths full, and began to explain seriously: "When I was going up the mountain, my dad was worried that I would drive too fast and the tofu in the back seat would be broken. , so let me use the water in the paper cup as a reference."

"The principle is very simple, but it can't be realized by lightening the movement alone. Because no matter how slow you drive, as long as you shift gears, brake and turn the steering wheel a little more, it's easy to spill." Fujiwara Takumi gestured: "To make the water swirl beautifully in the cup, you must use its surface tension. If you step on the brakes when you first enter the corner, the water will face forward; after you release the brake pedal and turn the steering wheel, when you officially enter the corner, the lateral G force It will push the water to the side; after the apex, when stepping on the accelerator to accelerate out of the corner, the water will concentrate back. After such a cycle, it is exactly a 180-degree rotation. As long as the entire link is connected smoothly, the water will not It will be spilled."

Although he couldn't completely overcome the tension with Mr. Ryosuke, after all, he had been a lecturer at Donington College in the UK for several years. Fujiwara Takumi's reserve of knowledge related to cars is already quite rich, and he is also very good at carrying out Be specific.

The water cup method that Dad used on him back then was simple and crude, yet also directly effective.

As a beginner, it is very suitable to train the center of gravity under the control of the accelerator.

Fujiwara Takumi later recommended it to his students, but unfortunately, he never waited for the students to happily feedback "it was done".

What Fujiwara Takumi didn't know was that when he habitually entered the "teaching mode", it was like a different person.

The naturally dull and shy temperament disappeared without a trace. When he explained the principles clearly and showed a confident and calm posture...

Takahashi Keisuke, who has the self-knowledge of a mechanical idiot, felt dizzy and felt pain from the bottom of his heart.

He quickly lost interest in listening, and put his upper body down on the table.

really.

The ominous premonition that lingered from the very beginning was not his illusion at all.

This kid who looks stupid, not only runs like a lunatic - but also is a combination of strength and theory that hits off with his brother!
