[True luck] My young taming is too lax!

At the beginning of February, Yukimura had gradually gotten used to the intensity of rehabilitation.The attending doctor suggested that he maintain a certain degree of muscle activity, which can not only ensure the stability of body functions, but also speed up the recovery effect of future postoperative rehabilitation.Yukimura, who has never slackened in tennis, secretly increased the recovery time for himself, and the nurses who were waiting often admired his perseverance.

Although I have encountered many patients with perseverance, it is the happiest thing for all the nurses to have a beautiful boy like this appear in the inpatient department.They always treat him better involuntarily. Seeing him sweating profusely and persisting, they feel worried while shouting "so handsome". Smiling is the only way to unanimously feel healing.

When Sanada came to visit, Yukimura just happened to have not returned from the rehabilitation room.He hesitated in Yukimura's ward whether to go to see it, but he couldn't bear to think of Yukimura who might be a little hard.

That person would never want to be seen in such a mess.At least, when I can still support him, just wait here for him to sort himself out.

Sanada stared at the picture album on the bed in a daze.Recently, he often saw Yukimura holding a drawing book, sometimes he would stop when his hands became numb, and resume drawing after a while, but he couldn't tell what was urging him to be so anxious.Although the curiosity in his heart reached its peak, Yukimura mysteriously told him to "must not open it", an order Sanada would never violate.

He touched the few sparsely forked brushes next to the drawing book, and thought of an idea in his mind.

"Ah, Genichiro, you're here." A familiar voice came from the door, and Yukimura looked at him with a happy smile, "Did you bring anything today?"

"Well, the snacks at the shop next to the school, right? Marui told me, when did you like sweets like him?" Sanada opened the carton, and a few delicate and beautiful flowers appeared in front of him. It's hard work.

"A long time ago, Wentai recommended a dessert shop to me when I was in elementary school. It was quite far away. I heard that a branch store opened near the school this year. Wentai went to try it first." Yukimura took out two plates and laid out desserts, and made tea. , He remembered what happened when he first met Wen Tai, with a playful smile on his face, "Back then Wen Tai thought I was a girl."

"You are too used to him. Recently, Lianji said that he has gained too much weight." He is a net volleyer who has an advantage in agility. If he maintains such a weight, it will definitely affect his performance on the field. "And it seems that he is getting more and more If you don't obey discipline, it seems that you need to be stricter."

"Xianichiro's iron fist is already terrifying." Yukimura sat down with a smile, and pushed a plate in front of Sanada, "It's easier to concentrate when you relax occasionally, don't bring your bad temper to me, I'm already very tired Thanks for your hard work."

Sanada nodded, looking at the beautiful dim sum and not knowing what to say.Yukimura didn't speak, just looked at his worried look with a funny face.

"By the way, yesterday, Ice Emperor's Atobe called to propose a practice match with Lihai, saying that they wanted us to warm up for them in the Kanto competition, but it was obviously to test Lihai's strength this year, besides, you still Not here..."

"What's wrong? Ice Emperor's strength is enough for us to be a training target." Yukimura smiled compulsively. Of course he knew what Atobe was up to. Maybe in addition to examining the opponent's strength, he also hugged the training team "Our Lihai University has no dead ends even in the practice games. Sanada, I believe the players will not let me down."

He told Sanada in this way, and after returning to school, Sanada also conveyed Yukimura's will in the same words.Said "Never bring any news of defeat to Yukimura", Minister Mingming has not appeared in the tennis club for a long time, but his sense of presence has never weakened. of deterrence.

The team members also thought of the boy wearing a coat and smiling at them. If Yukimura was really ashamed, they might not agree with it first.What's more, the current Vice-Minister Sanada is supervising the training almost completely against Yukimura's will. The attitude of never leaving Minister Yukimura's three words makes it impossible to forget the existence of the Son of God.I am afraid that even if the newcomers join the department this year, they will still hear various stories about the "legendary minister" from the mouths of the two giants and the candidates.

Yukimura later watched the team's game through video, and was deeply impressed by Akutagawa whose strength has soared.The net player who was not considered by Li Hai at all when he was in Guoyi, is now a person who can win two games from Marui.This also made Marui embarrassingly admit his mistake in the email to Yukimura.Although he also knew Akutagawa, Marui didn't really think much of him before, but this time the practice match was indeed a very meaningful one against Li Kai.

The new enemy has transformed, and in the next few months, more strong players will grow up. In the third year without Yukimura, Li Hai's three consecutive championships seem to be more difficult than before.

Yukimura looks forward to seeing the younger generation in the video. If, as Sanada said, he can see a new Akaya who has grown up, maybe this year's Lihai will also have a new successor.

He wrote down some questions in the member contact book for a few second-year juniors who performed exceptionally well, and added some items to Lianji's practice menu.While doing rehabilitation, he gradually discovered some muscle parts that are more likely to be damaged, and the previous exercise menu also needed to be adjusted after talking to the doctor for advice.

They didn't pay too much attention to these health issues before, and now Yukimura can no longer be as lax as in the past.It was an accident that he fell down, but trying to avoid sports injuries is what he, as Minister Li Hai, must worry about for his team members.

Liu, who received the latest email, printed out a copy of the form for everyone at the main election meeting, and Sanada also brought back the member contact book written by Yukimura.All the people who have grown into the pillars of Lihai have been able to support the entire team without the minister alone. This is not only the efforts of the Big Three, but also everyone's response to Yukimura's expectations.

When the weather gradually warmed up, Zhengxuan of the tennis club finished his weekend training and got on the train from Kanagawa.Unlike the cold snap this time last year, February this year was noticeably warmer.

"Why do you feel a little excited..." Sanada frowned and looked at several teammates with joyful expressions on their faces.

"The probability of being excited because of Valentine's Day and finally being able to visit Yukimura is 98.35%." Liu also slowed down his expression. He himself did not go to meet Yukimura with Sanada, but insisted on the responsibility of looking after the tennis club. In the past few months, although the position has not changed, Sanada has already carried the work of the minister, and Liu has become even more busy.

Yukimura once expressed guilt to Liu in an email, but for Liu, this kind of silent trust is what moved him the most.If he could share some for that person, wouldn't he hold on so hard until he fainted like before?

Perhaps everyone in the tennis club has the same feeling as Liu.If they were more mature and not worrying, maybe Yukimura would be able to tell about his physical condition earlier...

Now they were able to straighten their backs and go to see Yukimura with a record of complete victory, especially on a day like the day before the operation, they were extraordinarily solemn.

"Will you receive Yukimura's love letter this year..." Marui sighed softly, and Kirihara asked suspiciously after hearing it.Several people told the juniors what happened last year, and the bright-eyed juniors looked at the seniors enviously.

"So, Kirihara-kun and I are the only ones who don't have love letters in the tennis club." Yagyu looked around, and among the few people, only Kirihara-kun and himself joined this year.

"Well, I guess it's impossible. Yukimura is working hard now, so don't think about it." King Ni frowned, thinking about those things at this time, how relieved is he?

"The surgery is going to happen tomorrow, at least we have to give Yukimura the greatest encouragement first, Bunta." Kuwahara patted his partner on the back.

"Well, I know that too, but I looked it up again yesterday, thinking of the previous training, it was a little uncomfortable..." Marui who fell silent while talking, was a little embarrassed to make the atmosphere so low, and interrupted with a smile Change the subject with two sentences.

Sanada, who was listening to everyone's discussion, somehow thought of Yukimura who was always drawing pictures recently, could it be...

When several people arrived at the hospital, Yukimura had already returned to the ward.Hearing the approaching footsteps, Yukimura couldn't help but smile.

The teammates who haven't seen each other for a month seem to have matured a bit.Everyone stared at Yukimura closely, observing his condition: he has lost a lot of weight, he was still wearing the right clothes when he was first admitted to the hospital, and now he is a little empty, but his face is okay, but a little pale, showing that he was originally delicate His facial features are even more fragile.

His smile is still as gentle as ever, and Yukimura, who has changed his sports clothes, always makes people feel close. Now even if he doesn't want to admit it, everyone can't help but want to defend him and make him happy.

"Minister! I miss you so much..."

As a junior, he can always express his feelings so frankly. When the others were silent, Kirihara had already moved to Yukimura's side and held his arm.

"Has Chiya grown taller recently?" Yukimura patted the junior's head, looked at the young man's slightly elongated facial features and smiled, "As you said, it has indeed grown a lot."

Kirihara nodded, "That's right, so did the minister give me a reward?" He stared at Yukimura with bright eyes, which made people laugh out loud.

"Hey Chiya, shouldn't you take out your gift before saying this?" Marui patted his head dissatisfied, the boy covered his head and shouted "It hurts", but he still obediently turned to himself tennis bag.

Several people prepared gifts for Yukimura, most of which were guards obtained from different shrines and some works with a sense of peace.Yukimura thanked him one by one, and it was full of everyone's prayers for him, which made him a little warm. He smiled and joked to himself, "Obviously last year I received a love letter from Chocolate to reply with you. These don’t look like Valentine’s Day gifts at all.”

Everyone also laughed, seeing him in good spirits was the most satisfying thing for them.

"Ah, and mine! Minister!"

The gift held in both hands is exquisite, petite and cute. The beautiful purple petals seem to be stretching their arms, and the exuberant vitality makes people's eyes shine.

"It took me a long time to find one with the same hair color as the minister!"

This was a carefully chosen gift, and it was even Yukimura's favorite type of violet.However, everyone around him was dumbfounded, and even slightly angry.

"Akaya...you, you idiot!" Marui slapped him on the head, and gave him an angry look, "At least you should know what you can give and what you can't!"

Kirihara stared blankly at several seniors who were frowning and staring at him, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Giving a potted plant to a patient is a very unlucky sign, Akaya, you are really too lax this time." Liu sighed and grabbed the junior by the collar, pressed his neck and bowed to Yukimura, "You can't Let the seniors worry about everything for you, is what you just said about growing up just bragging?"

Kirihara, who stared straight at the ground, was a little dazed, did he give something bad?Can't you give potted plants to patients?He looked up at the minister who was sitting on the bed and looking at him helplessly. That person was taking the pot of small flowers from his hand.

"Xianichiro said before that he doesn't even believe my guarantee, he only believes in doctors, so everyone doesn't have to care about those traditional things." Yukimura smiled and called Kirihara to sit next to him, "Chi also found how long?"

"...Since last month, I have been to many stores." After seeing the gifts given by the seniors at the beginning of the year, he felt that he seemed to have lost a bit, so he always decided to pick a minister who would definitely like it. thing.But I didn't expect to make such a mistake, and my head drooped for a while.

"Well, what should I do? Although I really like it, but everyone doesn't want me to leave it in the room..." Seeing the younger generation getting more and more frustrated, Yukimura smiled slightly, "Then I can only entrust you Taken care of."

"Eh?"

"This is Chiya's most thoughtful gift. I hope that when I return to the tennis club, I can see it beautifully displayed in the club room. Can it be done?"

"I, I will definitely take care of it, Minister!"

"Yukimura, you're too used to him..." Marui raised his eyebrows, watching Yukimura just soothe the younger generation. "I still have homemade cake, can you have it now?"

Yukimura nodded, looking at Marui expectantly.Several other people also took out tea bags of sweets, snacks, and tea from nowhere, as if they had already prepared for a tea party.Sanada, who was about to speak out to stop him, saw Yukimura's indulgent smile, and also backed off.

"Ah, that's right."

Yukimura blinked, got up and took out a few thick envelopes from the cabinet on the other side. "As a minister, I still have to set an example. Even on Valentine's Day, there is no dead end."

"Hey, this kind of small theater that seems to come up suddenly, Yukimura." Nioh complained about Yukimura's acting skills as usual.

"Oh, so Nioh isn't actually looking forward to it at all?"

"Well, no..."

The others have already received signed envelopes, only one is still in Yukimura's hand.He smiled and spread his hands, and sat back on the bed, "It's just right, I didn't prepare your share either."

After receiving the ridicule from his partner and teammates, Nioh couldn't hold back and sat down beside Yukimura.Reaching out to bypass that person, he took away the envelope with the words "Masaharu Nioh" clearly written on it, "You're still so wicked, Yukimura."

"Well, indeed, you reminded me that there is still a small theater, do you want to watch it?"

He took out a picture album from under the pillow, and handed it to King Ni with a smile on his face.

Turning the first page, the familiar scenery came into view.The tennis court is empty in the early morning, which is a scene that everyone can see before the start of morning training every day.

Next came the training time when silhouettes appeared, some were members of the three courts, some were newcomers doing swing practice, and some were in sparring practice matches.Turning back, they can gradually see more of the daily life of the tennis club, the Haiyuan Festival activities in the past two years, the boys dressed up by the waiters, the memories of overseas travel, the celebration after the national championship, and the lively scene after school in the afternoon. The club room, the club members who have been trained to frown, the people who won the game, and the people who lost the game.

Man leaving court with tennis bag at dusk.

It was a scene that Yukimura had seen every day in the tennis club for the past two years, but now, although he himself did not appear in these paintings, he seemed to be watching them, and each stroke was as real as if it had just happened.

Several people looked over one by one, and gradually became silent.Turning to the next page, a moment in motion appeared in the suddenly zoomed-in perspective.Yagyu, who is posing with a laser beam, has a straight back like a standard gentleman, exuding a perfect temperament even in sportswear.

On the next page, Nioh is holding the racket in his arm with the corner of his mouth twitched, and his long and thin hands are playing with the braids that are gradually growing out.

Afterwards, each page is full of full-body portraits of the main players. Their postures in the game are captured, with sweat on their foreheads and concentration on their faces.

I have never observed myself in other people's eyes like this, even when playing back the game video, I have never felt this way.

In Yukimura's eyes, their figures on the court seem to be beating with their hearts. Just looking at these paintings, they can recall the enthusiasm in the game.A person resonates with their world on the drawing paper. This is an emotion that only Yukimura can experience. It seems that just like this, Yukimura is working hard together with the members.

"Last year, Mrs. Wen seemed envious of Jack's solo sketch. This year I also want to give you a surprise." Yukimura looked at everyone's dumbfounded expressions gently, "I haven't been back to the stadium for three months, but every time I get Start with a pen and draw all of these.”

"Let's just make a collection of paintings. After I decided to do this, I realized how much work it is, and I have to hide it from Genichiro." He smiled, looking at Sanada's uncomfortable look, "Everyone in the tennis club The members are all drawn, and the coloring is as perfect as possible, but in the end, the solo drawing for you should be more detailed, but the hands are not very flexible, probably Wentai's bubble gum looks a bit strange."

"That kind of thing is whatever..." Marui looked up at Yukimura.

"In order to make you happy, I did my best. In this way, how far should Valentine's Day evolve next year?" Yukimura tilted his head and sighed with some annoyance.

They are already satisfied with these, Minister.

Before I came here, I felt that I had prepared gifts with great care, but every time I was compared by Yukimura.

Only you, we can't win even once.

Not long after, Yukimura's nurse came to inform her that it was time for treatment.When everyone left reluctantly, Kirihara secretly stared childishly at his little nurse who was looking at him funny.

"If you don't want to leave so much, why don't Kirihara-kun stay and watch?" The nurse who smiled and looked around the group of teenagers was quite familiar with them, and would occasionally see a lost boy brought over by her colleagues. Naturally, many people were reluctant to reprimand him. object.

"Ah, no, no need." Kirihara saw the minister who was threatening him, and timidly hid behind Marui.The minister never allowed them to watch the infusion process, even Sanada never saw it once.

When several people left, Sanada left a paper bag on Yukimura's bedside.After the nurse finished the injection process, he left and left him to recuperate. After he became a little deserted alone, Yukimura recovered a little bit of anxiety about tomorrow's surgery. His eyes glanced at the paper bag Sanada left without saying a word, and he opened it in front of him. .

Inside the quaint rectangular wooden box, two slender brushes lie quietly.Yukimura noticed the high-quality material of this set of pens, and the other party must have searched a lot of information before finding the brand he was most comfortable with.

However, what really attracted his attention was the small characters engraved on the barrel of the pen.

It was Sanada's handwriting, square and square, with an awe-inspiring aura.

Dare to act decisively, ghosts and gods avoid it.

He seemed to be able to see from the somewhat rough engraving that the young man carefully held the carving knife, entrusting his most heartfelt blessings as a friend of ten years in one stroke: as long as you are firm enough, even a serious illness cannot defeat you .

We are waiting for your return.
