[Free! ] Midsummer's annual rings

The setting sun is gradually setting, casting a soft halo on the cold and hard buildings of the stadium.

People in the stadium began to disperse, and various schools were organizing teams to leave.Whether it is success or failure, selection or elimination, it has become the past, and they can only quietly move towards the future.

"I'm sorry, Minister, for doing something capricious."

Rin bowed deeply in front of Miko Chai. This was the first time he bowed his head like this since returning from studying abroad, "I will take responsibility for this matter."

"Unforgivable." Yu Zichai looked at him with a rare serious expression, "I want you to take responsibility in other ways."

When Rin started to be confused, Miko Chai closed his eyes, "The swimming skills just now, let's show it in our team next time." He said with a hearty smile at him, "Okay, it's almost time to go back, loose Gang, hurry up and get ready."

Rin was stunned, as if he didn't expect Yu Zichai to let him go like this, he immediately replied loudly: "Yes!"

Mikoshiba nodded and was about to turn around and move forward. Rin looked around again and hurriedly chased after him, "Minister Mikoshiba, do you know where Nitori is?"

"Like a bird?"

Miko Chai frowned, "That guy seems to have gone to our locker room to help that guy Shenjing get things. That guy Shenjing always forgets things."

"I see, thank you Minister."

Niao Niao hugged the big shark doll that was about the size of a real person, and really couldn't figure out why someone would give such a big thing to Senior Shenjing here.

In order to save the road section, Niiao decided to step over the guardrail, but he didn't expect that the shark's tail was hooked. Before he could step over with one leg, he was about to fall to the ground. Suddenly, a pair of powerful hands stretched out in front of him to ask I caught him and the doll.

Just as Niao was thinking of thanking him, the person in front said, "Why are you still so clumsy?"

The voice seemed to be stunned by the bird, "...Senior Songgang?"

Rin frowned and flicked the shark in his hand, "By the way, do you do whatever that guy from Shenjing asks you to do? You won't refuse him once in a while?"

"No, it doesn't matter, it's not a difficult thing to do anyway."

Rin stared at him and said nothing, then he didn't know what to think, and said awkwardly: "Just now, I'm sorry, no, I didn't mean it."

Nisori was stunned for a moment, "No, it's my fault." He glanced at Rin's slightly red left cheek, and lowered his head nervously, "I, I... I'm really sorry."

Rin touched the left side of his face, which was still a little red, and nodded, "Indeed, this is the first time someone dared to slap me in the face like this." In fact, the slap by Niao Niao was not serious, and soon he felt nothing.

Hearing his words, Niu Niao couldn't help shaking, and his eyes immediately became moist, "Well, I really didn't mean it, if Senior Song Gang feels angry, call back, I, I'm not afraid of pain..." As he said that, he really raised his head to get close to him, and closed his eyes tightly.

The setting sun shone on his fair and delicate face, covering it with a layer of light red, very beautiful, Rin couldn't look away as if he was stuck, didn't this kid know?Just close your eyes and lean over, as if...

Kiss...? !

No, no, no, it must be because he looks like a girl and still feel this way, it must be!

Unnaturally looking away, Rin poked his forehead with some annoyance, "Who wants to hit you? Didn't I apologize to you? I'm sorry for saying such serious things to you, and I won't do it again, so ……please forgive me."

Eh? !

Is it really an apology? !Niao Niao couldn't believe it.

Rin looked at his shocked appearance, his face was hot, and he continued to whisper: "If you don't mind, let's continue practicing together tomorrow, like a bird, no, it's love..."

Nitori was stunned for several seconds, completely unaware that Rin was calling him, but after realizing it, he immediately showed an expression more excited than winning the lottery, Senior Matsuoka... actually called his name! ! !

This is an extravagant wish he has never had before, calling his name proactively, as if recognizing him as his partner, Nitori raised his head to hold back the tears he wanted to shed, and nodded vigorously, "Okay, Senior Rin .”

"Hey, why are you crying?!"

"Wuuu...don't worry about me, I'm just..." Niao Niao buried his face into the big shark and wiped it off, "Anyway, I'm just happy."

"..."

Is this guy really a man?But looking at his blushing face from crying, he felt soft in his heart, which was strange.Rin stretched out his hand to touch his silver-gray hair awkwardly, and comforted him clumsily, "Don't cry, if you cry again, you will become a little cat."

*****

Back at the gate of the conference, Shen Jing glanced at the wet and suspicious object on the shark's white belly, his face darkened, "Since Bird Sauce likes it so much, and even marked it, as a senior, I have no choice but to give up. , the doll will be given to you, as a reward for your usual help~"

"Hey!" Niao Niao sniffed, and continued to rub his face against the shark, "Is it really okay?"

"...It's really possible, but..."

Fukai smiled and looked at Rin who was beside Nitori, his face darkened obviously, "Matsuoka-chan is too bold this time, isn't he? She even helped the enemy swim."

Rin knew that Shenjing's test was more difficult than the minister's. Although that guy always looked like a smiling face, Rin knew that he was the most ruthless and severe one in the department.

Rin took a breath and lowered his head, "I'm sorry about this matter, I must take full responsibility for this willful behavior."

Shen Jing nodded, "It would be the best if you have such awareness, don't worry, I have already thought about the way you are responsible, and Miko Chai has also agreed."

"???"

"Don't worry, it's a good thing~"

Shen Jing blinked at him, grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, "There is still a lack of someone at the drama club, Ling-chan has appointed you to join, Songgang-chan, I have already promised for you, after returning, I will Obediently go to the drama club with Niaojiang to report, and treat it as doing your part for our swimming club."

cold:"……"

*****

By the time we got back to school, it was already close to ten o'clock in the evening.

After eating, they went back to the dormitory in twos and threes.

Throwing the backpack on the table, Rin took off his coat and went straight to find clothes to go in for a shower.Nitori threw the big shark on the bed, and when he put the backpack on the table, he inadvertently glanced at Rin's backpack.

That black and white thing hanging on the zipper of the backpack... that, isn't that the omamori he embroidered for Rin-senpai!

Or is it really just the same style?But the crappy shark above was obviously made by him, and that crooked guy with the same hair color as Rin...

Nitori thought for a while, and he couldn't find the guard after he returned to the auditorium. Later, he thought that Senior Rin wouldn't want it anyway, so he didn't care.However, why it is hanging on Senior Rin's backpack is too inconceivable.

"Hey, like, love, you can take a bath now"

"Ah," Niao Niao was startled by his sudden voice, and immediately let go of the thing in his hand, "Okay, okay."

Rin also saw that thing, and the atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became a little delicate. He grabbed the towel in his hand, and turned his face unnaturally, "Isn't that thing for me?"

"Eh?!" Niao Niao couldn't digest this sentence for a while.

"It has my name embroidered on it."

"Did senior Rin pick up this thing? Who is it..."

"Isn't that the one you embroidered for me?"

"!!!"

How did senior Rin know that he embroidered it? !

Rin let out a displeased "Tsk", "Who told you to sleep so unruly, things keep falling down Sasuke, this one has fallen several times." He kindly helped him throw it up.

"Wh, what..." Niao Niao's fair face turned red all of a sudden, it turns out that this thing has been known by Senior Rin for a long time?Causing him to hide for so long in vain...

However, "Senior Rin, where did you find this Omoru, I remember it..." It seems that it fell somewhere and cannot be found.

"Who found it, I just picked it up by chance." Rin pretended to be impatient and looked away, "Don't you hurry up and take a shower? The lights are going to be turned off later."

"Ah, oh." After hearing what he said, Nito immediately ran to find clothes as if he had received an order, and slipped into the bathroom.

Rin reached out and picked up the imperial guard, touched it, "It has been embroidered for so long, why is it still so ugly."

In fact, when Rin picked up that thing on his bed for the first time, he was really amazed that there are boys who really like this kind of thing that even girls don't like.

But when he picked it up for the second time and saw the crooked word Rin on it, he was stunned, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.Then he began to pay attention to Niantiao's usual habits in the dormitory, and later found that when he read comics, he turned into sneaking on the bed.

Niiao admires him very much, he knows this.Niao Niao is kind to him, and he knows it.

Although it was a little annoying at the beginning, but being treated so wholeheartedly and looked at with eyes full of admiration was not bad at all. On the contrary, he actually enjoyed it a little bit.

But being an idol also has a price to pay. He subconsciously doesn't want to disappoint Nitori. Many times when he sees his eyes of "you are the number one in the world", Rin starts to be afraid of losing.

But no matter what, he Matsuoka Rin is actually just an ordinary person, and there are still many things he can't do.Rin also thought about whether he shouldn't let Niu go on like this, the most important thing is to let him find the style that suits him best.However, seeing him sticking to him so obediently, like a cute puppy, he couldn't bear to let him go.

The reason why this thing returned to him in the end was because Makoto picked it up when they went back to the locker room together.At that time, Rin wanted to find Nitori, but he didn't have enough time, so he put this amulet in his swimming cap, and then participated in the competition.

However, it's better not to let that guy know about this, it feels... too weird.

*****

Then the next day, Rin didn't go to the drama club to report because he had something to do in the second grade, but...

Looking at Rin's distorted face, Bi Niao swallowed, "Well, Senior Rin, are you okay...?"

"It's okay! I, how, what, will, have, thing!"

Rin took a deep breath, but his expression became even more ferocious, "Anyway, it's just a drama!" He said through gnashing of teeth, as if he wanted to chew the script into pieces.

Tell him to play the role of princess, princess, your sister, princess!

Like a bird: "..."

It feels like something is going to happen.

In fact, when he just got the script, he thought he made a mistake, but Sato-senpai said with certainty that there was nothing wrong with it.Seeing Rin Matsuoka written next to the actor notes of the princess in the script, Nisiao was very skeptical at the time, whether he would stop acting directly with Rin's senior personality.

"Well, Rin-senpai, if you don't want to, I can talk to Sato-senpai..."

"Humph!"

Rin stood up, "Just act, whoever is afraid of whom!" That guy from Shenjing obviously wanted to punish him, so I'll show him the role!But that guy better watch out, don't let him get his hands on it!

"Senior Rin, do you want me to help you play the role?" Niiao looked at him worriedly, "Time is running out, less than a week left."

"Okay, then come on." Said Rin turned to his role.When I saw that line, I suddenly had the urge to let go!

Damn it, whoever wrote the script is so fucking wicked!

Niiao looked at him worriedly, "Senior Rin, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Rin bite the bullet and looked down, but in the end, he also went down...

Finally, there was a roar and a series of curses from Boys Building [-]: "You bastard Shenjing, you #@￥%&@#￥%& bastard!"
