Miss Naoko is always at the Shura Field

The trek, the exhilaration of reaching the summit, and the face-to-face confession with Tezuka allow you to vent your extreme emotions.

Since you had to leave Europe at the age of ten, you knew that this was a decision Uncle Maizha had to make, but you still felt pain and a feeling of being abandoned.

Tezuka, too, said something to make you grow, but pushed you away.

These people are all for you to grow up smoothly, but they ignore the pain you have to endure, or they would rather let you experience loneliness than let you disappear in this world directly.

Is it good as long as it is growth, even painful growth?

If you can be with them, you won't care even if your life is in danger.

But...they push you into this everyday world and tell you to grow up...

You have worked very hard!

But why...

Facing Tezuka's eyes is like facing Uncle Maiza's eyes, their decision cannot be changed.

"Naoko, only by living can you get what you want." Uncle Maiza said so.

You gradually calm down.

You returned to Tokyo with Tezuka.

Before leaving Tokyo, Tezuka sorted out the Mandarin notes and notes of various subjects for you, so you returned to Kanagawa with a lot of study materials.

After that, you didn’t have much contact with Tezuka. If he wanted you to grow independently and take responsibility for living for yourself, then you hoped that you would not bother him.

The consequence of excessive dependence is to make the other party feel a heavy burden. Whether Tezuka thinks so or not, you are already aware of this.

But since you moved to Kanagawa, your social situation seems to be very worrying, even Ronnie called to ask.

You want to cover up the past, but you can't fool him.

"Well," said Ronnie, "there's a game you might be interested in."

So you got the 【Illustrated Book】.

You can see that [Tezuka]'s status is [Recurrence of old left arm injury].

Is it because of the Kanto tournament?

You recall that Tezuka was seriously injured.

[Guoguang's arm is injured, he needs to be treated properly, don't always think about the responsibility of the tennis club, always think about yourself. 】

You spread your dissatisfaction with Tezuka Kunimitsu on [Tezuka Kunimitsu]. When you were on the phone with Aunt Ayana, the other party accidentally said, "Kunimitsu is still hesitating whether to go to Germany for treatment."

At that time, you were really angry. It was really too much for Guoguang to put the responsibility of the tennis team before his own body, so he immediately asked to talk to him.

I don't know if it was because of the phone call, Tezuka went to Kyushu for treatment soon.

【I see. ] Tezuka replied like this.

The time will soon be Grandpa Tezuka's birthday, and you plan to go back to Tokyo once.

[Fixed the timeline bug]

Tezuka felt strange at first.

Because no matter how much you miss someone, you will always get used to it.

However, since he climbed the snow mountain with you, he often dreams of you.

"Is everyone going to abandon me?" You cried and said in the dream.

But he never wanted to abandon you.

He kept these thoughts to himself.

Then you start texting him.

【I'm a little unhappy today, I want Guoguang to comfort me】

Sometimes you say that out of the blue.

"How to comfort girls" Tezuka searched on Yahoo.

However, the number of times you contact him is not too many, Tezuka sometimes feels a little lonely.

On your birthday in December, he sent you [Happy Birthday].

That message got a reply from you.

【Thank you Guoguang】

Then you came back to Tokyo for grandpa's birthday, and you had a great vacation.

After you returned to Kanagawa from Tokyo, you never sent Tezuka a message.

Tezuka was a little worried and couldn't help asking about your situation.

[Naoko, how are you doing recently? 】

But there was no response.

Will something happen?

The heart that grows for you in the body gradually overwhelms the physical heart and occupies a more important position.

No matter how slow he was, Tezuka also understood that caring for you not only comes from three years of co-existence and family-like feelings, but that you are very important.

It is so important that he wants to carry you forward.

Although Tezuka doesn't think there is anything wrong with not taking the initiative to keep you, he will regret it, but he will also be very relieved when he thinks that you may be able to become a person who lives for himself in the future.

But, now that you don't reply to messages, Tezuka wonders if something happened to you.

Although you have also called your family, the greeting-style call that only announces good news but not bad news cannot reflect your real situation.

You're not the type to get angry.

Don't ignore him for no reason.

He decided to go to Kanagawa to see you.

Taking the train from Tokyo to Kanagawa is also the route you have traveled. Tezuka imagined how you would feel.

Will it be sad?

The image of you crying and saying that you were abandoned came to mind again.

If you're not happy, come back.

Get you back to him, and back under his wing.

Let him protect you.

After all, not everyone is suitable for independent growth.

Tezuka made up his mind.

Soon you will be near your home. It is a beautiful small bungalow. Looking from a distance, you are at the door.

He was about to walk over.

"Naoko, come and see the fun things I bought!" A voice came from the house next door.

"Hi, right now—" you replied, all smiles, and walked out to the neighbor's yard, "ah, it's a bubble machine."

Immediately afterwards, you let out a complaining yet intimate voice: "Jazhi, you slapped me all over the face!"

"Pfft, don't you think being surrounded by bubbles is like a fairy tale?"

"Look at me, I want to blow your face too, let you feel the fairy tale world!"

"I think Naoko, you can't catch up with me, poof."

"hateful!"

That's Masaharu Nioh.

Tezuka thought.

Naoko once mentioned that Nioh Masaharu from Rikai University is your neighbor, and the fraudster on the tennis court is said to like to play tricks on people in normal times.

Soon, Tezuka left.

After participating in the Japanese U-17 training for a period of time, Tezuka decided to accept the invitation of the German U-17 to enter the professional tennis world. He wants to move towards his goal. This is also a promise to you.

When you arrived in Germany, you who hadn’t contacted him for a long time suddenly sent him a message.

【Guoguang, are you there】

【I am here. 】
