[Net King] Bright Summer

The sun at noon in May is warm and warm, and the neighborhood is very quiet. Occasionally, old people with peaceful expressions walk past leisurely. This is a large area of ​​ordinary Japanese-style houses, with a few blue branches climbing on the low courtyard walls. The vines are dotted with three or four unknown purple flowers. Tezuka leaned against the low wall and thought for a long time. Finally, he took out the mobile phone in his pocket and directly pressed the familiar phone number.

Tezuka's right hand hanging by his side was involuntarily clenched into a fist because of inexplicable tension, the phone rang twice, and then was connected, Tezuka held his breath meaningly.

At first, a boy's wanton laughter was heard on the phone, and then Sanada's stern reprimand was heard, and then Genichiro Sanada's surprised voice came: "Is it Tezuka?"

"It's me." Tezuka reached out and pushed up his glasses that had slipped a bit, and asked; "Are you free now?"

"I'm free, what can I do?" Sanada's thick voice rang in his ears.

Although he knew it was impolite, Tezuka still asked again: "Is it convenient for me to visit your house now?"

"Of course." Sanada replied almost without thinking, but he obviously sensed Tezuka's anomaly, so he asked: "Tezuka, what's wrong with you, what happened, do you need me to come to you? "

"You wait for me, I'll be right over." After finishing speaking, Tezuka Kunimitsu hung up the phone first.

A sudden heavy rain fell on Kanagawa in May. There were many pedestrians sheltering from the rain under the eaves of the shops on the street. Compared with those who walked leisurely on the sidewalk with umbrellas, people without rain gear rushed under the rain Of course, this also includes Tezuka who also didn't wear rain gear. He was already wet, with raindrops dripping from his chestnut hair, looking extremely embarrassed.

Although Tezuka is already studying in the high school of Tachikai University in Kanagawa, Tezuka has almost no chance to experience the great changes in this city except for going to school. I haven’t seen you for a few years. Many places in Kanagawa Prefecture have changed, but this county is not included. Sanada House is located in the reserved area, nearby is a large area of ​​Japanese-style buildings from the Meiji period, and there are many churches built by Western missionaries, which are one of the characteristics of Kanagawa Prefecture, so this area The characteristic area has always retained its original architectural appearance. Tezuka once visited the Sanada family, and after ten minutes, Tezuka entered this reserved area.

Walking into this characteristic building complex, the mysterious rhythm of the East and the romantic feelings of the West are perfectly integrated here. On Sunday afternoon, the children's praises came from the church in the distance. The surroundings are quiet and the children are immature. The singing made Tezuka stop in a hurry. Tezuka, who had been restless for a long time, suddenly calmed down miraculously when he heard the children's singing. It was not until the singing stopped that Tezuka remembered that he was already here. After staying for a long time, thinking that there was someone waiting for him, Tezuka Kunimitsu walked to Sanada's house.

Turning around a winding stone path in front, Sanada House is in front, the rain is gradually getting smaller, but the temperature has dropped even lower, Tezuka's clothes are completely soaked, and the lenses on the glasses are too late to wipe clean Tezuka, who was severely myopic, vaguely saw a figure standing at the gate of the Sanada family's house.Because I was not sure, I didn't realize that the person waiting there was Sanada Genichiro until I approached Tezuka. Although I vaguely felt that the person standing at the door might be Sanada, but when I met Sanada Genichiro's eyes, I felt an inexplicable feeling in my heart. An indescribable feeling.

Sanada...are you waiting for me?Tezuka took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose and squinted at Sanada standing in front of him. He didn't wear the usual black baseball cap, his neatly trimmed black hair was slightly wet, and he was only wearing a beige jacket on his upper body. A thin sweater with a V-neck, and a pair of old light blue jeans underneath. Because I have hardly seen Sanada in such casual clothes, Tezuka couldn't help but think to himself, it turns out that Sanada is not always the same. Deputy uncle.

"You're here." After Sanada nodded to Tezuka, he was about to lead him into the house.

Tezuka looked at Sanada and asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I just came out." Sanada turned his head away from Tezuka, and Tezuka standing behind him could only see his slightly red earlobes.

"Liar!" The clothes and hair on his body were already wet, so it didn't look like he just came out.

"Uh——" being exposed on the spot, Sanada touched his nose in embarrassment. It took him a long time to react, coughed lightly, skipped the topic and said to Tezuka: "Your clothes are wet from the rain, Let's go take a shower and change clothes."

Tezuka Hideo frowned slightly. He was already sorry for coming to the door rashly. Thinking of causing them trouble again, Tezuka couldn't help but feel a little sorry. He said, "I won't disturb you for too long. After a few words, I will will leave."

"No matter what you have to say later, go take a shower now." Sanada also frowned, his thick black sword eyebrows frowned together, and almost formed a Chinese character of "Chuan" between the two eyebrows, and the deep His eyes were like swirls, and his tightly pursed thin lips made his serious face look very stiff. This was the first time Tezuka saw Genichiro Sanada like this.

Tezuka Kunimitsu finally compromised and said, "Okay."

Entering this quaint house, compared with the past, it seems that there is not much change. Through the garden of the atrium, under the leadership of Sanada, the two stepped onto the spotlessly cleaned corridor. Tezuka has been following behind Sanada, Looking at the strings of footprints he left on the floor, both of them were covered in rain, and they must not be much better.

"Here we are." Genichiro Sanada opened the wooden door.

While Tezuka was still thinking, Sanada had already stopped, and the two put their shoes on the porch. Sanada took Tezuka into his room and said to him, "There is a bathroom inside, and a clean bathrobe has been prepared." Tezuka led into the bathroom, and after taking out all the daily things; "Is there anything else you need?"

"No, it's already very troublesome, thank you." Tezuka Kunimitsu thanked.

"I'm going out first." Sanada turned and went out after finishing speaking.

"Sanada." Sanada, who had already walked out of the bathroom, was called to stop by Tezuka.

Genichiro Sanada turned his head and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Tezuka's gaze fell on his instep, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, "You should also go and change into some dry clothes."

Sanada was startled when he heard Tezuka's words, then nodded and said, "I see." After speaking, he closed the bathroom door and left.

Tezuka took off his glasses and put them on the stand. He stood in the middle of the bathroom and took a look around. The bathtub occupied almost one-third of the bathroom area, and steaming bath water had been poured into it, with shower gel and shampoo beside it. , a set of bathrobes, towels, and a hair dryer are placed on the shelf next to it. The warm hot water steam fills the entire bathroom in a short while. It is really uncomfortable to stick wet clothes to the skin. Tezuka took off I took off my wet clothes and put them in the outside clothes basket, and stepped into the bath.

After taking a hot bath at Sanada's house, his body became much warmer. After drying his hair, he changed into a clean bathrobe. When Tezuka came out of the bathroom, he realized that his clothes had disappeared from the outside clothes basket.He opened the paper door and walked out of Sanada's room, only to see that a low table had been placed under the outer profile at some point, with two bowls of steaming tea on the table, and a person who had already changed into clean clothes. Sanada knelt on one side and looked at the sky outside the courtyard.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Genichiro Sanada looked back at him and asked, "Have you finished washing?"

Tezuka walked over and replied, "Thank you for the trouble."

"Sit down." After Sanada asked Tezuka to sit down, he pushed the tea bowl on the table in front of him, and said, "This is ginger tea. Drink it to warm your stomach. Auntie will bring me some food later."

"Thank you." Tezuka, who didn't even eat lunch, was really hungry.

"I asked my aunt to wash your clothes, and she will help dry them after washing."

"Oh." Tezuka nodded, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. As soon as the spicy ginger tea entered his throat, a slightly sweet taste spread from the base of his tongue. After taking a few more sips, his hands Tsuka put the tea bowl back on the table, and looked sideways at the direction of the garden.

I don’t know when the rain poured in, and there are still puddles of rainwater in the courtyard under the corridor, reflecting the blue sky after the rain, and clusters of hydrangeas are planted in the corner of the wall, lavender, blue, pink, and a large cluster A large group of flowers is covered with raindrops, and the sunlight protruding from behind the white clouds shines on the raindrops on the flowers, making the raindrops even more crystal clear.

Tezuka was a little stunned, and Genichiro Sanada quietly looked at his side face until Tezuka looked away, and he looked at Sanada and asked, "Can I really play tennis again?"

Sanada Genichiro was taken aback for a moment, then put down the tea bowl in his hand, looked at Tezuka Kunimitsu, raised his eyebrows, and replied with a sure face: "Of course you can play tennis, I never doubted it!"

Tezuka Kunimitsu lowered his head and asked unknowingly: "Why do you believe me so much? The former coach and doctor have asserted that I will never have the chance to hold a tennis racket again in my life!"

Sanada thought for a while, and said seriously: "How can your life be judged by others!"
