must love tennis

The bathroom was steamy, Ryoma opened his eyes, and the gashapon with her face was sitting opposite, most of his body was soaked in hot water, only his collarbone and shoulders were exposed, and the essence bubbles were floating around.

Sure enough, no matter how many times I watched it, I was still very uncomfortable.

I have to say that Irie Kanata's intuition is really top-notch.One second, he firmly told Longma that "the product must be returned", and the next second...

This gashapon ran to the bathroom to harass Tokugawa!

I don't know what they said, but after a while, Ryoko came out, her bangs were a little damp from the steam, her face was still expressionless, and there was no sign of embarrassment or remorse.

Just like now, Ryoma looked at her, still unable to understand what this gashapon was thinking.

"Because it's a girlfriend gashapon," she said slowly, breaking the silence, "Does it have to be like this?"

Ryoko didn't answer, but looked at her thoughtfully, and said after a while: "You can think that it's not me who has this kind of need."

"But was it programmed to meet that need?"

She couldn't help smiling, and her face, which had been paralyzed for a long time, finally became more vivid: "I just want to do what I like."

"There are many things you like." Ryoma said, "Love is not the only purpose of life."

"You're right." Liangzi didn't deny it, and said softly, "You are all the same kind of people."

you?

Ryoma pondered what she meant for a while, but before confirming it, he heard her say again: "Do you know what your brother Kazuya said?"

The name made her blush a little, and she lowered her head, trying to cover it up with the steam of hot water.

"He said," Ryoko said sadly, "he likes younger girls."

Ryoma: "..."

Are you implying something?

It was too difficult to communicate, so she decided to give up and turn to the topic: "Shall we go to Toy City tomorrow?"

Ryoko glanced at her.

"There is no other choice." She said slowly.

"That's right." Ryoma said, "Unless you can impress Senior Fuji."

Although it is a bit difficult, it seems... not impossible?she thought to herself.

"Forget it." Ryoko said indifferently, "I don't mind."

How could it be possible not to mind?If I didn't mind, I wouldn't have run away in the first place.

But anyway, I can finally get rid of this trouble.Longma breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's you." Ryoko suddenly said, "Be careful yourself."

"……what?"

"Compared to a woman with sinister intentions," Ryoko said slowly, "a man with ulterior motives but mysterious intentions is more dangerous."

What kind of chicken soup is this?

Ryoma was confused and returned silent.

After that, the gashapon never spoke again until walking into the toy city.

With the end of the girlfriend gashapon incident, Momoshiro finally returned to the tennis club.The little conflict between the golden partners was also fleeting, and everything was back on track.

There are still some days before the Kanto competition arrives.

The repeated training every day was somewhat boring, until this day, Dashi announced: "Tomorrow is a vacation. Everyone relax!"

The candidates hadn't reacted yet, but some veteran members had already understood, and asked excitedly and nervously, "Are you going to draw lots with Minister Tezuka?"

"Well, go to Kanagawa." Dashi nodded with a serious face, as if imitating Tezuka's tone, "Even if it's just a lottery, I will not relax!"

"Come on!" Another person wailed, "Dashi, your luck has never been very good, this time you should let the minister?"

"Nonsense." Dashi blushed slightly, and immediately retorted, "When did I get sick?"

"It was the last school festival!" The member of the department was his classmate, and immediately revealed the truth, "We have drawn the worst event for our class, do you still want to deny it?"

"Isn't it Oishi?" Kikumaru blinked, "The time when he turned into a coffee shop? It was really too exaggerated... Let me just say, it's totally out of character!"

"It's a coincidence..." Dashi coughed hard twice, but got a few distrustful looks.

"Again," Fuji asked the question of the soul, "Aren't we a seed school, don't be so nervous?"

Everyone looked sideways.

"No," said the glasses dryly, "Although we won't meet the seeded teams in advance, we still need to draw out the positions in the competition area and the small half of the competition area."

"Since it's not a seeded team, then it doesn't matter." Taocheng said hahaha, "As for which competition area—"

and many more.

After a brief silence, Dashi's expression changed: "Is there an exception this year?"

Bu Er nodded: "The Ice Emperor has dropped the seed position."

The people looked at each other.

"Haha, it's not such a coincidence!"

"That's it."

The seniors chatted in full swing. Ryoma wasn't very interested in anything other than the game, and didn't think it had anything to do with him at first. He was just packing up his things and dragging the ball frame to the studio when he suddenly caught something in his ear. keywords.

"Are you going to Kanagawa?" She stopped and turned around.

"Oh, yes." Oishi paused, and looked at Tezuka inquiringly, "This time the location is arranged at the High School Affiliated to Lihai University, right?"

"Ah."

"Li Haida, Echizen, you should have heard that it is a veteran team." Dashi said, and overturned the statement with dissatisfaction, "No, not only that, in the Kanto Competition, they have already dominated the top ten teams in a row. Five years."

"Fifteen consecutive championships!" Horio was dumbfounded, "Is it such a terrifying strength?"

Dashi nodded slowly: "Exactly."

"Are you scared?" There was a strange smile on the corner of Gan's mouth, and a white light flashed through the lens, which made people have a feeling that if he dared to nod, he would definitely be forced to pour a bottle of vegetable juice to "bolster his courage".

"There's nothing to be afraid of." Taocheng said loudly, "Even Slytherin, who has won the Academy Cup for six consecutive years, will be broken, right Echizen!"

"That's it." Ryoma nodded.

Gan: "...It's good to have such ambition, I'm very pleased."

"Uh, what did you say just now?" Oishi scratched his hair, "Echizen, do you want to ask anything?"

"Well, I just thought, I happen to have something to go to Kanagawa. Is it this Saturday?"

"Then let's go together." Dashi said, "It's just right, it can also let you meet our opponents in the Kanto competition in advance."

……

Just going to draw lots, both Tezuka and Oishi were empty-handed, very cool, met Ryoma at the station, but saw her carrying a big package.

It doesn't look very heavy, but it is bulky and seems to be a lot of effort.

Dashi quickly asked, "Do you need help?"

Before Ryoma could answer, he reached out to take it.

"Not very heavy..."

Just as Ryoma was about to decline, the burden on his body suddenly disappeared. He turned around and saw Tezuka picking up the package, weighing it, and thoughtfully: "Scarecrow?"

"Scarecrow?" Dashi was confused, "What are you doing with the things?"

"I learned kendo from a teacher in Kanagawa." Ryoma briefly explained, "This is the scarecrow used for practice, and this time it is to be replaced—by the way, to accept the semester inspection."

"That's how it is. It's good to learn more things." Dashi boasted, "You can also train your muscles, which can just make up for your lack of strength. Isn't the training task for you also of this nature?"

Ryoma was stunned for a moment, although this was not the original intention of her determination to learn sword... But it seems right?

"Will it be very hard?" Dashi asked with concern, "I have already practiced a lot of tennis on weekdays. The allocation of physical strength and time..."

"He's a very strict teacher." Ryoma thought for a while and said, "However, I think it's just right."

"Well, don't force it." Oishi looked at Tezuka, and suggested again, "I'll take it? Your hands, be careful..."

Tezuka avoided his outstretched hand calmly, and both of them paused.Then Dashi coughed dryly: "Hey, you're welcome, didn't you say it's not heavy? It's okay for me, right?"

Ryoma looked suspiciously at the silent eye contact between the two of them, as if realizing something, he also looked at Tezuka's arm.Now, he finally couldn't hold on anymore, so he had to let go and give it to Dashi.

Dashi was satisfied, looked at his watch, and asked Ryoma: "Will you go to Lihai University with us first, or go separately?"

The legendary Lihai is invincible.

Ryoma wanted to see it for a long time, so he nodded without hesitation: "I'm not in a hurry to go to the gym."

The Lihai University Affiliated Junior High School with a history of one hundred years is worthy of being called a prestigious school, and the atmosphere is different from other places just after stepping into the campus.

Because it was the weekend, there were not many students except club activities.They walked all the way in the direction indicated by the street signs, and found the auditorium where the lottery venue was located without much effort.

It would be a bit exaggerated to move the package into the auditorium. Dashi stopped and looked at it distressedly: "Speaking of Echizen, since this thing needs to be replaced, can't we just throw it away?"

"No, it needs to be checked." Ryoma shook his head.

"Let's find a place to store it first." He suggested, turning around and looking around, "It's not far from the tennis court. There should be an open activity room... or something like that?"

"Let me do it."

This time I can't trouble the seniors anymore, Ryoma picked up the package and nodded to them: "I'll come back later."

"Don't go too far," Tezuka warned.

"With such a big campus, you won't get lost, right?" Dashi said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."

The two watched Ryoma go away. Suddenly, Dashi turned his head and asked again with uncertainty: "It shouldn't be possible?"

Tezuka: "..."

He turned around and walked towards the venue, and said lightly: "I'm going to be late."

"Ouch!"

The school is strangely empty.

Ryoma muttered as he walked, he didn't see many people when he came, and he continued to walk down the school road, but he still didn't see anyone.The trees beside the school road are lush and lush, covering the hot sun above the head, making it cooler.

After bypassing the auditorium, Ryoma walked for a while before seeing the gymnasium.

There seemed to be an open-air tennis court next to the gymnasium blocked by the trees. Judging from the distance and direction, Ryoma soon realized that he should have taken a long detour.

If I had chosen another direction from the auditorium just now, I should have arrived soon—could it have been infected by Sakurano?She couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Gradually approaching, it is a tennis court.The rhythmic sound of hitting the ball came from the other side of the grove, and Ryoma unconsciously quickened her pace. Unfortunately, the huge package in her arms restricted her movement and speed.

"The difference is too much!" A public voice was clear and loud through a wall of the stand, "You can't hold on for long!"

Ryoma stepped up the steps of the stands in three steps and looked down. In the huge stadium, there was only one boy wearing a team uniform standing swaggeringly on one side, while on the other side, a group of people were sitting scattered in twos and threes , are all ordinary sweatshirts, with no identification.

This voice seems familiar?Ryoma took two steps closer.

"Senior Zhongchuan!"

"That's it, Kirihara." The man called Nakagawa panted and waved his hands, bent over to support his knees, and then patted his thighs to relax his muscles.

He paused for a while, returned to the sidelines with the racket, sat next to his partner, and reached for a sports drink.The group of people next to him also looked very tired, not even interested in talking, and wiped their sweat with towels.

Only the young man left on the field looked exhausted, but he was still in good spirits, and seemed not very satisfied. He grabbed the racket and shook his arms, smacking his tongue: "Where's the next one? ——No? Hey, All right. What about the Deputy Minister?"

"He seems to be interviewed by a reporter from a magazine," one of them replied.

Another person also said: "By the way, you are about to draw lots, right?"

"Well, it seems to be." Kirihara replied casually, "It's in the auditorium behind."

If it was someone else, I couldn't wait to see the opponent's grouping situation, but for Li Haida, it didn't seem to be worth paying attention to.

Qing Xue?Ice Emperor, or Hexagon?It doesn't matter, don't care.

This is how the king stands tall, not pure self-confidence, but strength, which gives them the capital and confidence to despise everything.

"However, it's time for me to relax." Kirihara said to himself, relaxed, and couldn't help yawning.

After all, it is a continuous wheel battle with multiple people, no matter how energetic you are, you will feel tired.He put down his racket and was about to move his sore arms and shoulders when he suddenly noticed a look from the empty stands.

These people may have rough nerves in other things, but when it comes to tennis, they definitely have top-notch keen senses.

Kirihara suddenly turned his head and looked at Ryoma from afar.

The moment he saw the other party clearly, he opened his mouth wide, let out an "ah", and his eyes widened.

Isn't this - met on the bus that day?

Seems a little familiar.

Ryoma was still at this stage at this time, trying to recall where he had seen him before, and saw the other party refreshed, and ran towards the stands excitedly, with a push of his arms, he climbed over the wall and jumped to the steps superior.

"It's you!" Kirihara greeted.

"Ah..." Long Ma froze for a moment, then nodded.Looking at it from a close distance, this hair that was stretched like kelp finally awakened her memory.

"Hello."

"You, uh," Kirihara felt that he was a little too excited, but instead became reserved, and his tongue almost didn't tie up, "Why did you come to Kanagawa?"

Although Ryoma didn't quite understand why the other party's reaction was so excited, there was nothing to hide when it came to his intentions: "I'm here to draw lots."

"Is it the Kanto Competition?" Kirihara hurriedly asked, "I remember you are from the Youth Academy, right! Ah, of course, the Qing Academy must have advanced too! Did you come with the school team?"

"Ah."

"Then..." Kirihara got stuck again, and it took him a long time before he hesitated, "Then are you lost?"

"No." Ryoma categorically denied, seeing the other party's disbelieving eyes, solemnly declared, "I just heard a voice here, come and have a look."

"Oh... what a pity." He blinked, "I'm done."

Longma looked at the logo on his team uniform: "Are you Lihai University's regular pick?"

"correct."

"Oh, there will be opportunities in the future." She said calmly.

Kirihara didn't know if he understood, thought for a while, and nodded: "You are right, maybe I will meet seniors from your school on the field!"

"What is that kid doing?"

Behind them, the seniors whispered.

"I do not know."

"Is it a friend you know?"

"This guy's personality is really changing," Nakagawa sighed, "It would be nice if he was a little cuter on the court."

Just as they were talking, the two had already changed directions, as if they were going towards the auditorium.

Someone couldn't help asking: "Isn't he not interested in drawing lots?"

"Ghost knows..."

Nakagawa scratched his head.

As soon as the words fell, there was an angry shout from behind them: "Qiyuan Chiya!"
