Time is like a song

"I have no gold to pick up, go for a run." I took off my coat and threw it in the locker.

The others went out, and there were only three second-year original candidates left.

"Masumi, what are you thinking?" Yui Yuta leaned against the wall.

"You guys like Oda Yuna, you've always disliked them." I threw the bag casually into the cabinet and turned around, "I don't understand why you have always let these people use the clubroom as a playground , "I kicked the trash all over the floor in the club room, "and I see them bullying first-year students every day, if you don't bother me, I will."

Sayuri Imagawa held the association record book and said: "Because the results of women's tennis are not good, the number of members has continued to decline in recent years. If the number is not as high as that of other clubs, it will be difficult for us to apply for funding from the school. Therefore, the new Sister Tian endured them."

"A lot of people doesn't mean you will win. The Hidei Academy with more than [-] people in men's tennis also lost in the third place." I picked up the racket, "Of course I know that Nitta-senpai has her own style, but, I also have my own way. The school entrusted it to me, and after the next student union takes office, I will ask for an increase in funding.”

Akane Shinmura, who has always liked to see the handsome Ice Emperor, went crazy, "Hey, Minister, talk to me! Why are you talking about Ice Emperor again?"

I pouted.

"However," Sayuri Imagawa mercilessly covered Akane Niimura's mouth, "This is a blow to morale. If most of the first graders are gone, there will be a break in the inheritance of our club."

"Let's take a look at this. It's only three walks." I stretched, left the club room, and started running around the tennis court.

After running twenty laps, I leaned against the fence of the tennis court to rest when Yukimura came over.

"The number of people is low again?" He leaned his back against the fence and smiled through the fence.

"Nonsense, you were in the classroom listening to them come to ask me to withdraw."

"Ping, it's not like this to clean up people. Be careful of causing backlash."

"I'm different from you. I enter the club by airborne. As soon as I enter the field, I will directly retreat the team. It will cause a greater backlash. It's better to let them go by themselves." I raised my head and took a sip of water. Lian Er and Sanada will help you share the burden, and on my side, Huyamei has already helped me a lot and withstood the pressure of pushing me to be a senior minister. I don't want to add to her burden. I can do it myself. .”

"You just have to be careful." Yukimura said with a smile, "However, I didn't expect Heira to look good as a minister."

I turned my head and glanced at him, "Trust me, you are the most unexpected one." You are obviously Xiao Shou's figure, but you are actually Li Haida's minister, the attack in the middle of the attack.

Yukimura folded his arms, turned around and looked at me, "Ping," he raised the corner of his mouth, "What do you want to say?"

"No, it's nothing." I shouldn't have forgotten Renji's lesson, always not taking the food chain seriously.

"It's good for you to have a plan for the tennis club, but don't forget that it is also the responsibility of the minister to cultivate outstanding juniors. If the juniors are not good, you can teach them well, and you can't treat non-selected club members as nothing. Take responsibility If you take this position, you have to take responsibility." After finishing speaking, Yukimura walked back to the tennis court and slightly raised his hand, "Today's training is over, the team is disbanded."

"Yes!"

I glanced at Yukimura, and then raised my hand to Sayuri Imagawa and the others, "Start entering the tennis court, and practice sparring today. Sayuri Imagawa will face Yui Tamada, Akane Shinmura will face me, and the rest will find their own opponents." Yukimura's reminder, I clear.It is okay to clear away some bad apples, but for the members who are not strong enough, it is my responsibility to pull them up.

Tsk, what a hassle.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" After six o'clock, Li Haida still echoed the sound of hitting tennis balls.

"Xincun," I said to Akane Xincun, "shoot faster and find some uneven walls to practice hitting." Her stamina is already very good, but her reaction is too slow, as if stuck with glue .

"Yes."

I carried the racket and inspected various venues, "Sayuri Imagawa's wrist is relaxed, you are still nervous when facing a familiar partner, others will think you miss her Yuri Yui Yui Yuta, you are really Yuri, obviously Imagawa is full of Flaws, if you hit hard, no one will let you feel sorry for you. Sugawara Qinyin, you are a second-year player who can't even hit the ball, shame on you." I poked her waist with the racket, "The posture is wrong. Honda Sakura next door, look, your posture is also ugly, correct yourself. It is M who is waiting for me to scold you."

"Department, Minister!" I came to the position of the first grade, and they bowed to me a little nervously.

"I'm the minister, not the minister." I raised my chin, "Go ahead."

"Yes!"

"You don't need to play in Yuan Yasheng. Go back and swing the racket for me a hundred times. The others will play for another 15 minutes, and then go to help the senior sister pick up the ball."

"Yes!"

"Department, Minister!" Zaiyuan Yasheng, with two long braids in the style of a moon hare, looked at me with a mournful face.

I pouted, "It's the minister, not the minister."

"Yes, I'm sorry! Department, Director!"

"Don't worry, I don't eat people. Say it again."

"...Department, Minister!"

"say it again."

"...Department, Minister!"

"say it again."

Zai Yuanya took a deep breath and shouted, "...Minister!"

"Okay, I'm not deaf. I asked you to swing the racket because your basic skills are not good. Don't talk nonsense, do practice, girl with long braids."

"Yes Yes!"

She has no extraordinary talent, if she still doesn't want to give up like this, then the only thing left is to work hard.

seven o'clock in the evening.

I swung my racket upwards, "Leave the team."

"Yes!"

To my surprise, when I went to guide one by one, even if I didn't have any good words, the morale climbed up bit by bit.Yukimura should know this.

It seems that it is not easy for him, this person who became a minister in the first grade.

"Lenji," I asked Renji who was sitting across from me while eating noodles in the restaurant at night, "did you miss me and Sadaharu when you transferred schools by yourself?"

Lian Er was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Why do you ask such a question all of a sudden?"

"If you are like me, it doesn't matter, then it doesn't matter where you go. But you have been working hard, if you don't have a companion by your side, I think it will be difficult."

"Mayumi thinks this way because you want a companion too?"

"I guess, Sadaharu may have found a new love in Qinggaku out of conscience, and forgot about us."

"Why? Aren't we all still playing tennis?"

I glanced at him, "Relying on common interests to maintain friendship in different places, Lianji, you are a girl."

"...Let's eat noodles, you have to go to Genichiro's house later."

"Oh."

The attendance rate of the members began to pick up in the following days.

One day during the morning practice, I asked Sayuri Imagawa to lead others to run, while I came to the Men's Tennis to prepare for a match against Kirihara.Because Yukimura insisted on not letting Kirihara be promoted to the main election, Konbubu's howling was heard everywhere in Likai University, so Yukimura made a condition, saying that if Kirihara won, I would agree to promote him.

"Hmph, handyman!" Kirihara pointed at me with his racket arrogantly, "I will definitely defeat you and show the minister my strength!"

I shrugged my shoulders indifferently──Yukimura would hold him down, of course because he has serious flaws.It's not impossible to be arrogant, but the weed head is often so arrogant that he loses his calm, so it's no wonder Yukimura wants to abuse him.I am not what I used to be, don't think that I will let you easily get points under my hands.

"The match is over, [-] to [-], Hira Mayumi wins!"

There was an uproar on the court.

I looked at the unbelievable seaweed on my face and curled my lips.Since the national competition, I have been training except for sleeping and attending classes; I am not necessarily worse than you than a genius.And through the national competition, I began to get the knack of rationally distributing my physical strength, and the threat of rabbits to me was naturally reduced again.

"Oh, that first grade lost." Akane Shinmura covered her small mouth and let out a coquettish cry.

At some point, the women's tennis players gathered outside the tennis court.

"The minister actually lost one point to the junior, and he was punished to run away according to the rules~" Sayuri Imagawa held the club record book and stared at me intently.

"Minister," Yui Yuta folded his arms, "It's so disappointing that you let that first grade score a point."

Sugawara Kotone and Honda Sakura pointed at Kirihara, saying that the junior kelp head was very shameless.

"You guys!" Kirihara yelled at them.

"Wow!" The first-year sister who was waiting in Yuan Yasheng exclaimed very forcefully, with a cute and pitiful look.

Kirihara was so angry that he jumped, Marui had already burst out laughing.

"Okay, Ping," Yukimura came over and said softly beside me, "Is it time to get revenge?"

"I didn't instigate it." I raised my hand to wipe my face injured by Kirihara's red eye, and then waved my hand to signal Sayuri Imagawa and the others to stop.If the trouble continues, Yukimura, the short-protecting man, should fight back.

When I got back to the classroom, I started to catch up with my homework. I was so busy recently that I didn’t have time to do my homework. Renji was not in the same class, and he might not have the answers to some homework. My classmates, Sanada, Yukimura and Sayuri Imagawa, were ordered to monitor me , refused to borrow my homework.As a result, I could only try my best to catch up before class.It's not that I don't want to pay my dues, but if I don't pay my homework, I will be punished and reprimanded, which will only take up more of my time in the end.It's not impossible to escape punishment, but I don't want to have a handle in the hands of the school, which will affect my fight for welfare for the tennis club.

Tennis club, for the sake of my sacrifice, you'd better be good to me, or I'll tear you apart.

"Bunta asked me to give it to you." Yukimura handed me a piece of gauze, "You should also pay attention, who is doing homework with blood on their face? Is it a ghost who rushed to do homework?"

"Thanks, put it down." I wrote quickly without looking up.

"How did you talk!" Sanada scolded.

"Go and play with me." I still didn't look up.

"Five seconds left," Sayuri Imagawa looked at her watch, "Five, four, three, two, one!"

"Bell~~~~~~~~~" The class bell rang, and the section chiefs began to collect their homework.

"Done." I let out a little breath.

"Ping," Yukimura said with a smile, "Who did you let play?"

I silently looked at Sanada, whose forehead was full of veins.

"That's right, Minister," Sayuri Imagawa said loudly while taking the roll call, "You have to remember that there will be a meeting of the student council and club head after school today."

I raised my hand as a sign of knowing.

"What's Ping's plan?" Yukimura sat on the seat, turned around, and leaned on the back of the chair.

"Of course it is to fight for the tennis court." I glanced at him and yawned, "Even if we are willing to practice until evening, it is not a solution that there are not enough tennis courts."

"I won't let it go." Sanada said.

"No one told you to give up. If there is not enough tennis courts, you have to build them."

"Build a new one?" Yukimura rubbed his chin and asked with interest.

"At least three. Lihai has a lot of land, just find a place to build."

Sanada asked, "Do you think the student council will approve your grant application?"

I glanced at Sanada, "I won't approve until they get it. I don't do things I'm not sure about."

At lunch, I stayed in the classroom eating bread and reviewing textbooks.I have decided to do my best in what I want to do, and I don't want my personal problems to cause things to go wrong in the tennis department.The words of students with good grades are always more useful than those of poor students. This is a phenomenon in [-]% of schools.

"Student Ping really worked hard." It was Yagyu passing by.

"Being the president of the student council for the second time," I glanced at him, "it really is a black-box homework for top students."

Yagyu held up his glasses, "There are such people, but it's not me." He lifted his chin slightly, pointing to my textbook, "Eating bread for revision, I never thought Ping would be such a person."

"There are many things in this world that you can't guess, Mr. Hairspray." He must have applied a lot of hairspray to make the so-called gentleman's hairstyle that is reflective and belongs to a 30-year-old office worker.This is a little bit of retaliation for what you said when you laughed at me for wanting to fight for preferential treatment for women's tennis as an honor student.

Yagyu was just about to throw the book at me.He coughed lightly and leaned against the door, "I heard from Jingshi about your plan. The school has money, but why do you take it away?"

"The student union has cut women's tennis funds for the past five consecutive years, all on the grounds of poor performance. This year, our runner-up in the Kanto Tournament and third place in the National Championships, I believe, is already a reason for you to increase funding. Secondly, the women's tennis court Insufficiency is an obvious fact, if this continues, it will affect the lives and studies of the women's tennis students. Unless you disband the women's tennis, or let the men's tennis give way." I shrugged, "Of course this is impossible .So building a new tennis court is imperative.”

Yagyu, the chairman of the student council, didn't let go so quickly, "But the number of your members has dropped sharply recently, why do you think that the school's resources should be allocated to a small number of students?"

"According to what you said, if the resources are shared together, then the school cannot offer top-notch elite classes, because not all the students benefit from it." I propped my head on the table with one hand, "I think the significance of school resources lies in more Help the students to develop their strengths. Besides the regular funds, women’s tennis does not need to build tennis courts every year. It is reasonable to give this funding to those who are in urgent need first. We will not fight for it next year. If the school refuses to To improve the environment of women's tennis, I can at most take people out to street tennis courts, or rent some indoor courts. However, the former will inevitably affect the reputation of the school, and the latter will be less cost-effective than building one yourself in the long run."

Liu Sheng turned around, "I'm going to pass this test, you pass it." He waved the book in his hand and left.

At the next joint meeting of the student union and club heads, I passed the test smoothly.

"Long live the Minister!" When the women's tennis players heard the news, they cheered so much that the men's tennis players in the tennis court looked sideways.

"It's so loud." I swung my racket, "Go for a run, and come back in an hour to practice hitting the wall."

"Yes!" Great, morale is back.

Then I just have to keep going.The next year's women's tennis king will be Li Haida.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, when I exchanged venues with the women's tennis team and the men's tennis team, a woman with a press card hanging around her neck stopped me.

"Hello, I'm Saori Shiba from Tennis Monthly. Are you Masumi Hirama?"

I nodded.

"That's it. I want to do an exclusive interview with you, and the school has approved it."

"..." I looked at her silently.I didn't want to do such a troublesome thing, but her sentence of approval from the school kept me from saying my rejection.

"Lihai University Women's Tennis has a very good performance this year!" Saori Shiba laughed, "All this happened after Ping-san joined in the Kanto competition. I don't know how Ping-san evaluates himself? Ping-san And why do you want to join the declining Lihai University instead of other strong women's tennis schools, such as Sitianbaosi, or this year's champion Liujiazhong? Lihai University relies on you to enter the top three, you are also very proud of it?"

"Miss probably didn't do enough homework." I held the racket and looked at her.

"What? What?"

"It takes three sets to win a match."

"...What? I know that!"

"Now that you know, you should also understand that Li Haida can't rely on me to win the third place." This is a team competition, and the requirements for victory are simple and easy to understand. "Miss said that Li Haida relied on me to enter the top three. It's an insult to our tennis club. I don't accept your interview, so I don't want to see you off." I closed the tennis court door, keeping Saori Shiba from the door.

"You! Classmate Ping, you are so rude! You actually closed my door! How can you be so arrogant?"

"I'm sorry, the theme of Lihai University Women's Tennis this year is arrogance." With a click, I locked the tennis court.

"You!" Shiba Saori blushed from my anger.

"Miss," Yukimura said outside the court, "You are not welcome at Lihai Tennis Court, please go back."

Shiba Saori finally left under Yukimura's repeated invitations.

"Ping, you have done a little bit, I think that lady has no malicious intentions."

I leaned against the fence of the tennis court and said to Yukimura, "I've done it before, why are you helping me again?"

"Because I don't like others talking about my club."

"Short guard."

He chuckled, "You still have to be scolded if you protect your head? Ping, you did a good job this time."

I looked at the member who trusted me more after what happened just now, and whispered to Yukimura: "Believe it or not, what I just said is true."

"I didn't say I didn't believe it. I didn't say I didn't believe it.

I turned to look at Yukimura, who smiled at me.

"You guys don't wear wooden poles," I turned back to the field and put the racket on my shoulders, "keep practicing."

"Yes! Minister!"

Being a minister is really troublesome.
