must love tennis
Chapter 11
"You know? Echizen."
Ryoma was stunned by the serious expressions of the seniors, and couldn't help but look solemn and listen attentively.
——"Tennis is not a game for one person."
Have you heard similar words somewhere?
No copyright infringement, right?
"You mean, doubles?" She tried to analyze the real meaning of this sentence.
"That's right!" Taocheng slapped the table, overwhelmed with anger, "If you are a man, you should play doubles! ——Come or not?"
"No."
Regional qualifiers are about to begin.
The school-level league adopts team competition rules, that is, two teams of doubles and three teams of singles. Now, except for a pair of national-level doubles teams, the rest of their team are all singles players, which means...
Long Ma didn't even think about it, and flatly refused: "I'm not suitable for the style of doubles."
"Don't talk so hard." Eiji Kikumaru, one of the golden doubles, raised his index finger seriously and shook it from side to side, "Before I formed a doubles with Oishi, I also felt very boring. Maybe, you just Haven't found a suitable opportunity yet!"
"That's right." Gan pushed his glasses, and the white light flashed, faintly revealing his sinister inner intentions at this time, "A real man should play doubles!"
"That's right!" Taocheng said loudly, "Are you still a man?!"
"Does it count?!" Several people said in unison.
As we all know, the essence of human beings is a repeater.
Watching them sing together, Ryoma's heart did not fluctuate.She is not a man in the first place, why should she respond to such a face-saving matter?
but……
Facing a group of seniors who were staring at her like tigers, she suddenly realized that with her personality and style, if she showed a "retreat" attitude on this kind of issue, wouldn't it be very suspicious?
Seeing Bu Er looked over meaningfully, as if implying something.
"Could it be?"
What else could Longma do, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said with great reluctance: "That's fine."
"It's such a happy decision!" Taocheng said with pride as he put his palm on her shoulder.
Who is happy with you!
You, who said you didn't like doubles when we were eating hamburgers a while ago, changed your face in a blink of an eye. You are really... a fickle man.
Long Ma turned around melancholy: "I'm going for a run."
Yes, she was late again.
The culprit this time was Karubin, who just came to climb her bed in the morning and slapped her alarm clock off with one paw!
However, that's not the point.The point is that Minister Tezuka thought that she would not change after repeated admonitions, and thought whether the punishment was too light, so he added ten more rounds to the original twenty.
Ryoma also admitted that his physical fitness is much worse than these male middle school students.Running is not so much a punishment, but more like targeted training.Unlike when she was late for kendo class during the holidays, Sanada punished her by chopping scarecrows [-] times... This kind of practice is basic skills.
"Is this okay?" Oishi looked at the back of the younger generation, thinking very carefully, "I read Echizen's game records in the United States, and they were all singles. If there is no accident, he doesn't seem to have any experience in doubles, right? "
After all, it is the first grade, after all, it is the first game of the competition as the official selection of Qingxue, if it loses, the impact will be...
"Isn't Ah Tao the same!" Kikumaru hugged Taocheng's shoulder with a smile, "Why, did you suddenly wake up?"
"To be honest, I didn't want to play doubles at first." Taocheng coughed a little guilty, avoiding his gaze.
"Wow, that's too much! Both of them hate doubles so much!"
"Ahem, no." He scratched his cheek, "Then, I suddenly realized that as a senior, this is not acceptable."
Oh?
Several people looked over with interest, waiting for him to continue.
"After all, we are newcomers. We should help Echizen integrate into the big family of the tennis club as soon as possible—so, doubles is the fastest way to strengthen the relationship and connection between teammates." Taocheng said seriously, and then said, "It was the last time I went to the fast food restaurant. At that time, there was a package name that inspired me..."
Everyone suddenly realized, and they immediately looked at his delicate side with admiration.
"It's ok, A Tao, you already look like a senior just after entering the second grade!" Kikumaru showed a gratified look, and patted him on the shoulder to express his appreciation, "I think this idea is very good, then our Qing Xue's first student this year Once the battle is over, I will leave it to you!"
"No problem." Taocheng agreed without hesitation, and said in high spirits, "I'll go buy a tutorial for beginners today."
"..."
Um? ?Is it really okay? !
"Since we want to play doubles, we have to practice hard."
Longma listened to Taocheng walking and talking, nodded absently, and responded from time to time.
"A tennis court is only this big, and you can play singles as well. There is no reason for doubles." Taocheng tried to analyze rationally, and then asked, "Are you right?"
"Hmm." She nodded.
"The theory is not difficult, it depends on the operation." At this time, Taocheng was still very confident, and his pace gradually slowed down. He stood at the intersection and looked around, recalling, "Well, I remember that there seems to be a street network nearby. The stadium is coming..."
"Really?" Ryoma looked around, feeling a little unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, "We didn't take this road before, did we?"
"Yeah, it's the first time I brought you here."
After walking for a while, both of them heard the familiar sound of hitting the ball, and their eyes lit up.
"It's here!"
Ryoma followed him, stepped up the steps in twos and threes, and what appeared in front of him was an open-air tennis court.Compared with the legacy facilities provided by the school, it is relatively simple, but according to the wear and tear of the ground and the net, it can be seen that the ground is well maintained.
"I've never been here before, but I heard it from a friend." Taocheng said excitedly, and looked over, "Huh? What's the matter, didn't they stop fighting?"
In the middle of the field, several people stared at each other through the net.
One of the figures was quite familiar. When Ryoma stopped, he caught a glimpse of it, with a surprised expression on his face: "Huh?"
that is not--
Are you feeling sad about the multi-billion-dollar Tsuna-kichi senior?
"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Taocheng was even more surprised when he saw it clearly, and blurted out, "Isn't that from Lihai High School?"
Li Haida again.
Li Haida, who is very powerful in the tennis club?
Ryoma turned his gaze to the side again, and landed on the silver-haired boy.For a moment, she thought it was the store manager in the toy city, but when she got closer, she saw the other person's profile clearly...
"That is, Nioh Masaharu, who is known as a fraudster, won the national competition with Lihai University two years ago when he just entered school." Taocheng whispered to her.
"Is it great?"
"What do you think! Champion!" Taocheng emphasized, "That's a bunch of first-year freshmen!"
"Hmm..." Ryoma looked at the court again, thoughtful.
Taocheng thought she felt a little respect, but unexpectedly, the next sentence was: "It seems that their tennis club is quite open-minded. There is no rule that the first graders are not allowed to participate in the competition."
"..." Taocheng said, "Maybe because the minister himself is a first-year student."
"Oh, there are two tricks." Longma finally got a little interested.
Taocheng said again—in an analytical tone: "The one next to him may be his girlfriend."
No, it shouldn't be.
On this point, Long Ma was quite sure, and said, "I know her."
"Huh?" Taocheng was a little surprised, and glanced at her, "Do you have other friends here in Japan?"
Ryoma has never been interested in explaining the ins and outs of things.She just hummed as an answer.
"I don't know what happened, let's go and see?" Taocheng suggested.
There were many people sitting in the rest area outside the court. He went to inquire about it and learned that it was free to use, but there was a rule that only doubles could be played.As for now—
"Borrow a racket." Nioh stretched out his hand lazily.
"Hey, even if you are from Lihai University, this is too impolite!" The boy opposite said, "Since you play tennis, don't you bring a racket yourself?"
"Oh, didn't you expect this?" He said slowly, "Seeing the Te □□ stadium here is also an eye-opener for me."
"Oh, I can't help it. But we only have one spare shot, what about your friend?" another boy asked.
"Thank you." King Ni took the tennis racket from the opposite side and weighed it in his hand. "What do you call me?"
"Quan," the boy said, pointing to his companion, "Buchuan. We are from Yulin Middle School."
"Hmm... I don't have any impression." King Ni recalled.
"Hey, hey, you're too arrogant." Gang Ji couldn't help it anymore, but after glancing at him, he couldn't help feeling that the other party's arrogance still had capital, and sighed, "Okay, you're amazing, I'll listen to you. But, I really don't know how to play tennis."
"Never mind. Wouldn't it be the point—"
He was only halfway through when he was interrupted by another voice.
"Whether there is a racket is the key."
Holding the racket, Ryoma reached out to Tsunakichi.
"Eh?" Gang Ji found out about her arrival. After the accident, he felt a little embarrassed, "Is it okay? I'm very hard at tennis. Will using your racket..."
Is it a bit overkill?
These excellent tennis players generally cherish their own things.Lending her a layman who knows nothing, and substituting it in, is like giving the Vongola ring to a baby as a toy, a waste of money.
"You're welcome." Long Ma returned to the sidelines with a nonchalant expression, intending to be a spectator.
At this juncture, everyone is looking at themselves, and there is no reason for Gang Ji to refuse.And she is the type that is the least good at rejection, so she can only pick up the tennis racket with a bitter face, and swing it awkwardly, trying to find the meager muscle memory from the physical education class.
"I said you, do you want to hit one against two?" Bu Chuan from Yulin Middle School across the street muttered, feeling secretly annoyed.
despised—yet!That's Nioh Masaharu!Damn it, could it be that the two of them really can't beat him alone?
……No!Really can't beat it!
Two minutes later, the two Yulin students knelt down by the side of the field, tears streaming down their faces: "It's too cruel! Are all Lihai University perverts!"
"Pfft——" Taocheng, who was watching the battle, couldn't help snickering, "They are so stupid, with a girl watching, of course they have to behave well!——You say yes, Echizen."
Ryoma didn't speak, but looked at Tsunaki without saying a word.
According to the regulations here, there is only one serve game in each round, and the outcome should not come too fast.
The first three balls were all caught by Nio alone, and he hit back easily. The two people on the opposite side couldn't catch a ball.For the last time, King Ni took a step back and motioned for Tsuna to pick him up.
Seeing the weakness in the two, Quan gritted his teeth and swung his racket with all his strength.The yellow ball rushed away aggressively, rushing towards the dead corner with the speed in the eyes of ordinary people, and it was about to hit an ACE.
Hmph, how could a girl catch this kind of ball?As Quanzheng was thinking this way, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, and something brushed past his ears.
Snapped.
It seemed to hear the sound of the stadium guardrail breaking.
Quan's legs softened and trembled, and he almost didn't kneel down.
Gang Ji put down his hands, moved his arms, and muttered, "This ball is really powerful."
— Absolutely not as strong as you, okay? !
I was wrong, you are even more perverted than King Li Hai!
"It's out of bounds." King Ren looked at the opposite side and whistled briskly, "It's a pity, puff."
"Sure enough, I still don't know how to fight..." she said weakly.
"Come again?"
End of game.
The two from Yulin went down the court in a daze, and Taocheng couldn't wait to get on the court: "Let's challenge this time, it's very interesting!"
"Do you still want to fight?" Gang Ji widened his eyes and looked at King Ni worriedly.
"I haven't sweated yet, so it wouldn't be too bad to play a little longer." The latter looked at Ryoma with a twinkle in his eyes and smiled.
I seem to have seen the deputy minister's girlfriend, um~ interesting!
Ryoma was stunned by the serious expressions of the seniors, and couldn't help but look solemn and listen attentively.
——"Tennis is not a game for one person."
