must love tennis

60.

"This world may not be as scientific as I thought it would be." Dashi thought over and over again, and finally said it.

"..." Did you just find out?

Ryoma was very calm and nodded.

You should know it when you hear the concept of "the bazooka ten years later", not to mention that they are really going around in the future era.

science?forget it.Facing reality is the most important thing.

"You must not know what I discovered ten years later." Dashi's expression became more anxious and dignified.As if he couldn't bear it, he looked away, rolled his Adam's apple with difficulty, and said, "I also hesitated, whether I should tell you about this. But... since it is related to you, I don't think I can hide it from you. Echizen .”

His melancholy eyes returned to Ryoma.

This time she was really a little confused, and asked cautiously: "What's the matter?"

So Dashi started from the beginning: "When I realized that I was in the world ten years later, instead of dreaming, my first reaction was——"

Come to think of it, Kikumaru-senpai was talking about buying lottery tickets, right?

"I'm ashamed to say it," Dashi said, shaking his head with a wry smile, "My first reaction was the result of yesterday's match. I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't help but wonder. I didn't expect..."

"Could it be lost?" Ryoma blurted out.

"No," Dashi slowly shook his head again, "I checked the information of that year—er, that is, the current competition, but the victory or defeat is not the most important issue, what is important is that I did not see your name."

Ryoma opened his eyes suddenly.

"Including appearance records, registration, everything is like this." Dashi said heavily, "Besides, I also wanted to see the list of previous students of Qingxue, but I didn't have time..."

Everything about her doesn't exist anymore?

No, this should not be possible.Ryoma's brain was spinning rapidly. According to Oishi's senior ten years later, and the newspapers Atobe read, she should still be active in the professional tennis world. Oishi's stay was very short, and he didn't have time to read the news, otherwise Should be found too.

Could it be that someone cleaned up these things for himself?In order to allow her to participate in professional competitions as a female tennis player without affecting Qingxue?

However, paper records can be obliterated, what about human memory?Now that so many people are watching their games, how could it be possible...

She couldn't figure it out, frowned tightly, and kept silent.

Dashi sighed sadly, thinking that she was frightened: "So, I guess, something might have happened ten years later, or during these ten years."

"It's not necessarily a bad thing." Ryoma raised his head and said slowly, "I saw the future Oishi-senpai."

"Ah? Really?" He listened, and couldn't help but cheer up, "Did he tell you anything?"

"He said everyone was fine."

"Well... that's good." Dashi pondered for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Although I am a little worried, but rather than worrying about the unknown future, we should pay more attention to the current game. I didn't want to tell you, I'm also afraid of disturbing your mood... Are you okay?"

She nodded.

"It seems they are right." Dashi patted her on the shoulder and smiled gratifiedly, "Echizen, you are already very reliable."

"I heard that Tezuka went to Kyushu?"

The boy sitting in front of the window mentioned it seemingly inadvertently, Ryoma paused, hummed, and then inserted the bouquet into the bottle.

"Thank you for coming to see me." Yukimura put down the book in his hand and turned his head to look over, "I see that you are in a good mood. Your Qinggaku competition should be going well, right? I heard from my friends too."

"It's nothing, just drop by to have a look." She said.

This is true, Rinko asked Ryoma to go to the pharmacy to buy some stomach medicine. When she came here, she suddenly thought of Yukimura who was hospitalized here. She also had a vague guess about the tennis club he said had the ability to win the championship, so she bought a bunch of flowers Come to the inpatient department.

"Well, I know." He smiled unabated, his brows and eyes curved, "it's very boring to be alone in the hospital, it would be nice if someone came to talk to me."

The man seemed quite optimistic.

Ryoma looked at his expression, thinking that this was a good thing for the patient, and followed Yukimura's gaze to see the calendar hanging on the wall.

The next weekend was circled in red pen, and it said "Final", and there was a line of small words underneath: surgery.

Not only that, but on the box on the previous Saturday, there was also a "Kanto Contest" marked, and a red circle was also drawn this weekend, but there was no text mark.

In the Kanto Division, with the ability to break into the finals and have absolute confidence in it, there are not many choices in a limited range.

Ryoma stared at the calendar for a while, then turned his gaze away.

"What's wrong?" Yukimura's soft voice sounded behind her.

Without much hesitation, she opened her mouth without hesitation, and said directly, "Senior Yukimura, you are... the head of the Tennis Club of Lihai University, right?"

"Huh? Yes." Yukimura was startled, and smiled slightly, "Is it because you saw this?"

"Hmm..." Long Ma paused, and then said, "I've heard about it before."

When she first saw the rumors in the forum, she hadn't connected it together, but looking back now, isn't it a clear thing?

Besides, Yukimura didn't mean to hide from the beginning to the end, it's just that Ryoma didn't ask more questions because the two didn't know each other well.

"It's a pity that I can't play." Yukimura said calmly, "Otherwise, I really want to see Qing Xue's performance this year."

"Oh, what an honor." She said casually.

"It seems that we are destined not to be on the same side." Maybe it was her absent-minded tone that made Yukimura laugh, "Speaking of which, until now, I don't seem to know your name...how should I call you Woolen cloth?"

"……Uh."

Long Ma froze for a moment, hesitating in his heart.

Yukimura's teammates should visit him often, so will he mention his name?can you?

Don't want to say it?Yukimura blinked, and didn't ask any more questions, and naturally changed the subject: "By the way, my friend will come to see me later today, do you want to stay and get to know me?"

No, absolutely not.

Ryoma shook his head firmly, probably being considered shy again by the other party, handed her a water glass, and said to himself: "That's right, you secretly contact your future opponent, don't you want your boyfriend to know?"

She almost choked on the boiled water, and quickly and firmly explained: "I don't have a boyfriend."

"Oh? Isn't that Tezuka-kun?" Yukimura raised his eyebrows slightly, as if a little surprised.

"...No." Ryoma replied dully.

Yukimura's expression moved slightly, and he nodded: "That's my misunderstanding, I'm really sorry."

Why are there so many misunderstandings in the world!

Ryoma's eyebrows twitched, he was so entangled, he wanted to ask his logic, but he felt unable to ask, he held his breath in his heart, it was a bit convenient.

"Don't worry, drink slowly." Yukimura observed her words, said, and gently patted her on the back, "Did it scare you? After all, I thought it was strange before, after all, it's someone like Tezuka... ..."

right.

Ryoma also deeply agrees.

Will a high-altitude flower like the minister have a girlfriend? ...Of course, a boyfriend is also unlikely.

Yukimura himself took a sip of tea slowly, holding it in his palm, turning it around carefully, blowing white air: "So, you are still single?"

"..."

Ryoma didn't say a word, he took her as her acquiescence, and nodded seriously: "I see, then I may have to see the guests off early."

Ok?

Long Ma tilted his head, but saw him turn out of the window, and the old god said: "My teammate from the club is here."

Ryoma stood up quickly and bowed slightly.

"Then I won't bother you, goodbye."

She quickly stepped out of the ward, closed the door, and heard Yukimura say goodbye to her softly: "See you next time."

See you next time... see you next time, it will be on the field, right?

Yukimura faintly felt that he had guessed something. Although it was not clear yet, he was not in a hurry to figure it out so quickly.

Not long after, the knock on the door sounded again, and the nurse on duty led a few regular customers in.

The doors and windows are often closed. Although the curtains are drawn, the room is still gray.As soon as he entered the door, Kirihara couldn't help wrinkling his nose, and sighed bitterly: "It's so boring, Minister, you should go out for a walk more."

Indeed, Yukimura also felt the same way, but it was a pity that the surgery was approaching, and his physical condition did not allow it.He sighed slightly, and comforted his younger generation, "It's okay, it's only been a few days."

"So you should visit your friends more." After the nurse rolled up the curtain and hung it on the hook, she turned her head and smiled brightly, "However, your Minister Yukimura is not so lonely."

Sanada didn't know, so he looked at her, then at Yukimura: "It means—"

"The children in the inpatient department often come to play with me." Yukimura smiled and reminded, "Please trouble Ms. Toda, you can keep the vase over there."

"Oh, have you changed the water yet?" Toda put down the vase, and said to the others with a smile, "Not only that, there is a very cute girl who came to visit Jingshi, but you just drove her away gone."

"Girls?!"

They looked at each other, eyes wide.

"Does the minister have a girlfriend?" Kirihara blurted out, "In Tokyo?"

not girlfriend...

Yukimura wanted to explain, but was soon confused by the chatter of his teammates.

"It's too exaggerated to hide this kind of thing from us."

"Is it from the school? Or from another school?"

"It should be studying in Tokyo, otherwise we should have discovered it before."

"Wow, the minister is really amazing..."

Yukimura: "..."

never mind.Seeing how excited they are, it's futile to explain, so let's just misunderstand them.

After thinking about it this way, he still looked calm, without showing any clues.

Sanada frowned and looked at him for a while, not sure if the so-called girlfriend's statement was true or not, but just out of concern, he reminded: "It's better not to be too distracted now."

"What?" Yukimura asked.

Sanada snorted coldly, and glanced sideways at Kirihara: "That kid fell in love with a girl from another school at first sight, and now he can't stop talking about it during practice."

"Is that so?" Yukimura was very surprised, and also looked at Kirihara, "It shouldn't be, Chiya's attention has always been very focused, and you and Renji didn't care?"

If something like this happened, there would be no need to ask Yukimura, Sanada would have taught him a lesson.But looking at his frowning and unswerving expression, it seems that there is something else hidden.

He met Kami Kirihara's eyes curiously, and the latter's ears turned red immediately.

"No, there is no such thing! I am very serious!"

Liu Qing coughed: "It didn't affect the training, it just made people care..."

Rather, after knowing that the person he likes is his future opponent, this guy was overly excited. Although teenagers of this age are always energetic, according to their original arrangement, Kirihara's physical and mental strength have been fully considered. I'm afraid that he will drop the chain at a critical moment...

"It seems to be a human problem to make you care about it." Yukimura said thoughtfully, with a twinkle in his eyes, "Why, is she a student from a famous school?"

Most of the people who can make Kirihara Chiya notice are related to tennis and tennis courts, so he is one of the future opponents?

"You guessed it too." Sanada was helpless, not surprised at all, "Now his mind is full of thinking about how to blow up the opponent, the so-called exaggeration-"

Having said that, Sanada frowned in disapproval and shook his head.

"Well, as expected of Minister Yukimura." Nioh who shrank back suddenly took a step forward, leaned lazily on the bedside table, and said solemnly, "But I think it might be because someone is jealous?"

Yukimura: "...huh?"

He raised his eyebrows, suddenly more interested.

Under the scrutiny of the minister with great interest, as Sanada's expression gradually stiffened, the other people turned blue and looked at each other, no one dared to touch this bad luck.

No, there are still people who dare.

Marui Bunta raised his hand: "Well, before Nioh and I started school, I saw Sanada getting very close to a girl, and he insisted that it wasn't his girlfriend..."

"...And then found out it was the same person?" Yukimura glanced around calmly.

Liu nodded slowly.

Sanada said dryly, "That's not the case."

"There's no need to explain." Yukimura smiled empathetically, "I know it's not true just by looking at you like this. Don't I know you, Sanada? We've been friends for so many years."

"..."

Sanada breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, it was Yukimura, who still had some insight.

Unexpectedly, his next sentence followed closely: "It must have not caught up, right?"

Sanada: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Kirihara's smile gradually disappeared, his expression gradually became terrified, and he turned his head suddenly: "Damn, isn't it!—Vice Minister?!"

Sanada was speechless.

At this time, he wanted to put on a fierce expression to force back the resentment of the younger generation, but it may be useless to have a few good people who are afraid of chaos in the world.

Yukimura's smile deepened and added fuel to the fire: "Don't be sad, I haven't caught up with the girl you mentioned before. We are all standing on the same starting line."

"..."

Vice Minister Sanada almost lost his breath and fainted in public.
