Time is like a song

On this day, after finishing a game in New Zealand, I was walking back to the locker room wiping my sweat.On the way, I felt that the atmosphere was not right, so I sent a message to Sanada and the others who were also here with the help of the towel on my hand.At this time, there were few people around the locker room of the stadium. When I went into the locker room, I was afraid of being blocked by people.

I lowered my eyes, I might as well procrastinate for a while and wait for Sanada to come over.

But seeing the way the people behind are getting closer and closer, it seems that I won't be able to delay for long.I walked into the locker room as if nothing had happened, and immediately closed and locked the door with my backhand.Immediately, someone rushed up outside, knocking on the door and shouting.This time it was really bad.I used a mop to block the door of the dressing room, then ran into the innermost bathroom, locked the door, and immediately called Sanada.

"Beep—beep—beep—" Sanada, I beg you to answer the phone quickly, the door outside is about to be knocked open.

"Hello? Ping?" Finally got through.

At the same time, the door of the locker room was violently knocked open, and I let out a low cry.

"mediocre!"

"I was blocked in the dressing room..." Before I could finish my sentence, the door of the bathroom was knocked open.I saw that these people had a stylus in their hands, so it was no wonder that the door was easily opened.

"Ping!" Sanada's voice kept coming from the phone.

But I had no time to pay attention to him, so I could only put my phone behind my back and shouted to those people: "Arva, what do you want to block me in the locker room?"

Alva slapped me to the ground, and a man next to her kicked my phone away.

"Mayumi Hei," she knelt down and put her hand on my chin, "you're very aggressive on the court, aren't you?" She slapped me in the face again, "I don't Destroy your face," she pulled my hair and forced me to look at the four men behind her, "I want you to be played with this beautiful look before you shave your arrogant face. Pooh ,□!" After finishing speaking, she stepped aside and looked at me with a sneer.

Then two men lifted me up on one side, and another man squatted down and grabbed my kicking feet.The last one came up to me with a disgusting grin and took off my blazer with one hand.Alva took a picture of me with her phone.The man's hand tried again and pulled my bra off.

I pursed my lips and widened my eyes.I will remember all of you well.

"Mayumi!" Sanada slammed open the door of the locker room, accompanied by Tezuka and Echizen.

It's great that I'm at the same club as them.

The scene was chaotic, and they fought.I covered my chest with my clothes with one hand, ran to pick up my phone and called the police.

"Damn! Fuck me!" A man picked up the folding chair and was about to hit Echizen's brother's arm. I ran over immediately after calling the police.

"Ping-senpai!" Echizen brother, who was blocked under me, called out.

The chaotic situation didn't take long before the police arrived and we were all taken back to the police station.I was wearing Sanada's coat and sat in the lobby of the police station.The representatives of the two clubs were arguing fiercely. The conference of the match also sent people to mediate. People from the ATP and WTA came to understand the incident.Outside the gate of the police station, there were reporters crowded to the brim.

This farce is completely the biggest scandal in the sports world this year.

"Mayumi Hei." Arva quietly came to me while everyone was arguing.Sanada and the others immediately stood up to separate her, and Kara, who was in the same party, rushed over immediately when they heard about my accident.Catherine also put her arms around me, staring at Alva fiercely.

Alva smiled, "Your figure is very good, you should remember that I took the photos. I heard that you Asians attach great importance to these things and you will not get married, right? You are smart and don't want these photos to be Put it on the Internet, and you should know what to say when you make a statement later." She turned her head and walked away.

This trick is so proficient, and I don't know how many people have been ruined by Alva before.

"Masumi? Mayumi?" Sanada supported me.

I rubbed my forehead, "Sorry, I feel a little dizzy, it's okay." I looked at them, "I'll trouble you to just speak straight later."

"Are you sure?" Tezuka asked.

I nodded, "Yes. I wasn't the one who did the wrong thing, and I shouldn't be the one who should be ashamed even if the photos were published. I hate them and I hope they can be brought to justice." Fortunately, I can't imagine how many people have been succeeded with such skillful techniques.

Tezuka nodded, "I understand."

"Senior Flat." Echizen poked my shoulder, and then put a mobile phone in my hand.

It's the phone Alva uses to take pictures.When is Echizen...

Echizen smiled, "She's so stupid, I stole it as early as in the locker room."

I squeezed the phone tightly in my hand.It sounds good on the lips, but I am far from being so strong.I couldn't imagine how I would face my relatives, friends, and Jingshi if these photos were circulated on the Internet.

"Thank you, Echizen brother." I smiled at Echizen.Really, thank you very much.

Echizen turned his face away, "It should." He touched his nose, "Just now you blocked it for me, remember to see a doctor."

Then, this tiring day finally came to an end with the statement recording and the injury examination.They were still with me when I got back to the hotel, Carla.Catherine took me into the bathroom and helped me change with my bruised back.She gently caressed my pinched hands and feet, then hugged me and cried.

I patted her on the back, "Kara, it's me and not you, and it's not really a big accident, why are you crying?"

"It's all about you! I've been fine for several years, and you've only been like this for half a year after joining our club! I told you not to talk like this all the time! Woohoo..."

"Yes, I'm sorry." I comforted her in a low voice.

When I went out, everyone was still waiting in my room, including Tony, Robert and other friends I met at the meeting.I pointed at Kara's red and swollen eyes, and said with a smile, "Look, Kara's eyes are swollen more than mine from crying. I'll show Chiya next time. His status as a red-eyed bunny is being contested with him."

Everyone laughed out loud.

「真弓，」罗伯特道，「你男朋友不娶你了的话，我娶！」他话音一落，就被旁边的汤尼揍了。

I smiled and said, "No, Robert is too stupid."

"Ah~~~~" Robert pretended to choke his throat and howl.

"Hmph," Carla said viciously while wiping her snot, "Arva's elephant-legged, big-nosed monster must not be able to see that the real bow is prettier than her! Bucket waist! Triangular eyes! Pointy ears!"

I said lightly, "Stupid Kara, you can save some saliva, you don't need to say, anyone with eyes knows that she is ugly."

"..." Kara pointed at me with one finger, trembling and trembling, "I thought I had learned your poisonous tongue skills, so it turns out that you are the unsurpassable master of the generation."

"..." Kara, you have watched too many Chinese kung fu movies.

"Hahahaha~" Robert and Tony laughed.

bell!bell!bell!I let Sanada's cell phone ring.He looked at his phone and said to me, "It's Jingshi."

Everyone fell silent when they heard the words.

I paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "The news really spreads fast. Give it to me, thank you." I took the phone, took a deep breath, and connected the phone: "Jingshi."

"Maumi." Seiichi's voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

He hasn't said anything yet, but as soon as I hear his voice, tears well up.Sanada and the others avoided going to the tea room.

"Masumi, I watched the news. How are you? Did you see a doctor?"

I covered my mouth with my hands so as not to cry.

"Magum? Mayumi? Why are you silent? Did you hurt something? Mayumi?" Jingichi's voice was a little anxious.

I took a breath and calmly said, "No, it's fine. I'm fine."

"Masumi, I love you."

I blinked, letting the tears drip from my eyes.

"Masumi, are you still in New Zealand? Wait for me, I'll be right over..."

"No!" I realized that my reaction was too big, and I quickly took another breath, "Jingichi, don't you have a competition?"

"Masumi, I've lost~ There's no need to compete anymore. Just stay here and wait for me..."

"You are lying."

"Oh, I was spotted by Mayumi." He paused, "Masumi," his voice suddenly sank, "I said, I love you, I hope you will remember it seriously. You Stay in the hotel and wait for me."

"I know, Jingichi, but we also made an appointment to work hard."

"Maumi..."

"Jingichi, don't come here, play well. Promise me."

"..."

"Jingshi."

He sighed, "I promise you."

"I'm really fine. Sanada, Tezuka, and Echizen arrived in time. I'm fine. Don't worry."

"...You remember, no matter what happens, I love you."

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, I wiped away my tears and told my friend not to worry about me, then I stayed in the room alone.I sat on the single sofa by the floor-to-ceiling windows, dealing with one phone call after another.It seems that the news is too exaggerated, making friends and relatives worried.

Isn't there nothing?What are you worried about.

When the wave of calls died down, I pulled out a cell phone from my pocket.It's the one where Alva shoots my upper body.I turned on the phone and deleted the photos one by one, revisiting them one by one in the process.

I want to see you, Jingshi, I want to see you.

I buried my face in my hands and cried uselessly.

want to see you.

However, I will get used to the days when you are not around, and live alone.We are working hard on each other, I don't want to drag Jingshi down, and I don't want to get used to relying on Jingshi.

Hirama bow, don't be useless to this point.

"Knock! Knock!" the door rang.

I went to open the door and saw Sanada.He looked at me, then waved a bag of beer at me.

Sure enough, I taught Sanada badly.

"Sanada, I don't seem to be as strong or smart as I imagined." I sat on the carpet in the room, gulping down beer, "I'm still a little scared."

He glanced at me, "I already knew you were a very slack person."

"Sanada, if you lack adjectives, read more books."

"Drink it."

Mixed with tears of fear, I drank cans of beer after cans.If Jingshi found out, he would definitely scold me, but it doesn't matter, he won't know.

We set off for Munich the next day, head coach Alan.Abt asked me if I wanted to rest, and I shook my head.This year is the Olympic year, and I promised Sanada to participate in the mixed doubles together.There are very few international-level mixed doubles events, and we must seize every opportunity to prepare, so as to fulfill our agreement to win the mixed doubles championship in the four Grand Slams.This day is not far away. Our world rankings this year so far, I am No. 210, and Sanada is No. 190. According to our current state, we will definitely be able to qualify for the top competitions.

I'm a bit annoyed that some people who won four Grand Slam titles before the age of 15 are more arrogant than me.

There is no shortage of talent in tennis.

After discussing the injury and the competition with the coach, I went back to the room.It has been three days since that incident, and I still have lingering fears.In fact, I know that the ball will help me resist the police and other inquiries, so that I can rest.I have said everything that needs to be said, and I don't want to mention this matter again, just let the club handle it.

Just as I was about to sleep with the photo of Jingshi in my arms, there was another knock on the door.These people are really troublesome, no matter how many times I say I'm fine, I won't believe it.Fool.

When I opened the door and prepared to speak harshly, I was immediately stunned by the people outside the door.

"Oh? What happened to Mayumi?" Seichi, who was standing outside the door with a backpack on his back, tilted his head, "Stupid?" He stretched out his hand and flicked my forehead.

"Bastard!" I covered my forehead and jumped, "Didn't I ask you not to come? What about the competition?"

Jingichi shrugged, "Abstained."

"You!" I took a big breath like a chicken soaked in fish, and then exhaled, "Jingichi, you promised me. Go back."

"don't want."

"Don't learn how to speak from me!"

"No." He was still smiling.

"Jingshi," I pursed my lips, "let's break up."

"... Mayumi?" Seiichi's smile dropped.

"What's the matter with you? I told you to compete and you don't compete. You are 21 this year! How long do you want to delay!" I pursed my lips and tasted a little salty tears, "I don't want to drag you down, bastard! Yukimura Seiichi, you bastard! Super big bastard! You bastard!"

"What burden?" He resumed his smile again, but it was not the kind of wicked smile, but a very gentle and serious one, "Being with Mayumi is not a burden." He grabbed my hand, " Do you think I have been thinking about who is working hard for the past three years?"

Really not a drag?obviously it is.

"Masumi, I won't let you become a burden to me. Also," he hugged me gently, "it will be bad if you get used to me not being around. Let me tell you, there are no doors, no windows. Mayumi If you don’t behave anymore, I’ll lock you up in a secret room with only us, and I won’t let you play tennis anymore.”

"...Pervert, I won't give up playing tennis." I held onto Jingshi with both hands and kept crying.

"You won't give up playing tennis, but can you give up on me?" He hugged me tightly, "Masumi, come closer. That's right, Mayumi has to lean closer, don't always forget that I'm always there." He said Kissed my hairline, "Do you think, how long did it take me to say that I love you?"

"...you fuck me."

"Then Mayumi, do you want to break up?"

"don't want."

"Then be an M obediently. If you say something like that again, I'll be really angry."

"I've been M for three years."

"You have to prepare M for the rest of your life."

"don't want."

"Oh?"

"I want to be S."

"Hehe," he patted the back of my head lightly, "Mayumi has been cheating on me for three years."

"Woo... so hard..."

"It's hard work and you have to support me."

"S."

"Each to each other."

It was impossible to leave him as a fool.

In the remaining half of the year, I won the Olympic mixed doubles bronze medal, the women's singles championship at the Tokyo Pan Pacific Open and the China Open, plus points from other events and the first half of the year, and my world ranking rose sharply By the time of No.20, General Sanada was furious.This year, Jingshi was also No. 20 by coincidence.

The next year, the coach asked me to participate in the four majors.

Playing tennis is really enjoyable, and what's even more enjoyable is that Jingshi is also there.

I will definitely work hard, and I will not be lazy and wait for the day when I will become a player of the same level as you.

As for Alva, who attacked me, she was eventually banned and faced criminal prosecution due to her numerous crimes against other players that were revealed.

I went back to Kanagawa on vacation in December to visit Principal Yoshizawa.

"Little Mayumi," Principal Yoshizawa handed me a piece of chocolate that cost about [-] yen, "Isn't it easy to mess around in the adult world?"

I curled my lips and threw the chocolate into my mouth, "I have the blessing of Jingshi halo, don't be afraid."

"Masumi-chan, you're very good. You've always been a very good child."

"You obviously said that I was not good." I leaned on the railing of the corridor on the first floor of the teaching building of the Lihai University High School, watching the teenagers playing on the tennis court.Everyone's posture is really ugly, tsk.

"In a society where everyone is not well-behaved, the only well-behaved person will gradually be recognized as a different kind," the principal also leaned his elbows on the railing, resting his head on his hands, "Black and white are misidentified, and then, the well-behaved person People who are said to be bad, but bad people think they are good, and in the end black and white are mixed, and no one can tell what is good.”

"Principal, you are pretending to be deep and deceiving an ignorant girl."

Principal Yoshizawa patted my head, "From the first day I met Makoto, I knew you were very good."

"Just kidding, I'm obviously a younger sister."

"However, the first time Mayumi saw me, the person who approved you to enter Lihai University High School, he took off his hat politely, and knocked on the door very well. The words of friends, me, sisters and brothers, you Everyone listens to it. As you said, being an idiot is not a crime, just gradually become less idiots.”

I turned my face away, "You are talking about this for no reason, principal, you are out of your mind."

"Hahahaha, I'm going to retire after this school year is over."

I stood up and looked at him for a while, and then I fell down again, "Everyone is very good, Lian Er, Jingshi... everyone is very good."

"Yes, everyone is a good boy. Mayumi, it is very difficult to survive in a complex society with too simple ideas, but I hope you can keep going." He patted the top of my head, "Go and see The beauty and filth of this world are intertwined, and then keep your simple eyes. Remember, you don’t stay where you are, stay in your own world and keep yourself simple, but go out.”

"Principal, you plagiarized. This is clearly the concept of joining the world of Chinese Confucianism."

"Hahahaha, let me just say, Mayumi-chan is a good boy, he has even read Chinese philosophy. Go, Mayumi-chan, you've always done a good job. Go."

"Yes, Principal Yoshizawa." I bowed to him, then turned and left, stepping out of the already unfamiliar Lihai University High School.
