capture my prince

if.

"Tezuka, become the pillar of Seigaku!"

For this sentence, I think that even if I did not have a firm belief in entering the country at the beginning, I will definitely be able to persevere and walk this road well.

And everyone who joined the tennis club for the same purpose as me made me feel a kind of joy in my heart.This is something that judo practice cannot bring to me. It seems that a new kind of strength has been injected into my limbs, and the injury on my left arm is also showing signs of recovery under my careful care.In a blink of an eye, I was already a third-year junior high school student.

This year was the last time we had the opportunity to enter the country in the middle school. The previous few times we lost to Ice Emperor in the last game. In the final national competition, everyone's momentum was not enough.I know that we lack a new force, a new player.He can make every member deeply appreciate the joy of fighting, thereby mobilizing the enthusiasm hidden in the depths of everyone.

Soon, this person appeared.

His name is Echizen Ryoma, and his strength is considered good among his peers.However, to be honest, when I was in the first year of junior high school, I was better at hiding my strength than him.After all, he was still a child, and he never knew how to avoid the edge. On the contrary, he tried his best to show his talent in front of everyone.

Because of his appearance, the tennis department is much different than before.

The most obvious is the unerring eyes.In the past, except when he was playing against me, he would be a little more serious, and in the rest of the games, he didn't do his best.Even so, he can still easily win the game, provided that the opponent's level is not half of mine.Because we rarely meet opponents, and two years ago, because of my arm injury, the game between us has not started. So far, both of them have some regrets.

When the match against Yulin Zhongzhong was about to take place, there was another member in the tennis team.

On that day, as usual, I went to school early for morning department work.After we finished our preparatory exercises, a girl who looked like she had been attacked by mud appeared on the tennis court.

The one who reacted the most was Kikumaru, who had the best reflexes. Through him and the loud-voiced Junior Momoshiro, I noticed this unexpected guest.

The first impression is, is this dress another strange trick those girls came up with to get close to someone?In the past few years, I have seen a lot.Thinking of this, his expression subconsciously condensed a lot.The regional competition is coming soon, and no accidents can be allowed to happen.

Unexpectedly, this unattractive girl was actually a senior from the high school.

The high school is some distance away, and that's not the most important thing.The point is that she said she wanted to be a manager.Without thinking, I declined.After arriving in Tokyo, I got used to the same expression, and since I found out that some girls would not dare to approach me because of my indifference, it made me calm down a lot.

But this senior was not affected in any way, she calmly raised her smiling face, walked past the crowd, and stopped in front of me first.

When I didn't know what she meant, she had already spoken.

After listening to me in her mouth, I was a little surprised.After all, very few people know my original name.As for the type of girl she said I like, I have never considered this issue.However, what she said seems to be more suitable for me.

I silently accepted Ryuzaki-sensei's arrangement, maybe Ryuzaki-sensei has her reasons and ideas.

When working in the afternoon department, I listened to her advice and added some unexpected things into the training.I didn't expect this senior to be the captain of the long-distance running team, and her attitude towards other team members was indifferent, but she carried out according to her plan, which made me feel familiar.It was only later that I realized that her appearance at the time was very similar to my attitude and tone towards the members.

After eating the food she cooked, everyone finally calmed down the dissatisfaction caused by the training just now.Wacky though her approach was, it worked and was a little more innovative than the dry vegetable juice.In addition, the things she cooks are also very delicious, so everyone stopped talking.

So far, the tennis club has one more female member.

Extra Story of Ice Palace ([-])

The next morning, I arrived at school early as usual.

After changing into sportswear from the studio, I habitually walked on the boulevard.The morning sun is a bit chilly, but I like it best at this time because it is very quiet. (——)

Suddenly, a dazzling figure broke into my sight.

That girl has long black hair and slightly squinted eyes, which can be seen from a lack of sleep.Seeing that figure swaying and crashing into the pine tree in front of me, I frowned unconsciously.Does this girl not know how to protect herself?After realizing that she had paid too much attention to this strange girl, she seemed to feel something, turned around and met my gaze.For the first time, I felt at a loss. Fortunately, she still didn't wake up, and she didn't seem to notice my gaffe when I closed my eyes.I was too careless!

It's just that even though I walked past with a blank face, I still felt that the girl seemed to exhale lightly. Could it be because she was afraid of me?Without thinking much, I came to the tennis court.

Not long after, senior sister Jiulan also arrived.With no dirt on her face, she was just an ordinary-looking senior.At least the players aren't distracted by other things, which puts my mind at ease.

After the physical training is over, it is our duel training.As the manager, she actually walked to the bench on the side and fell asleep.

When she was running, she didn't pay attention to her mental state. Now it seems that she didn't sleep well at night.The strange girl I met on the boulevard suddenly came into my mind, and it seemed that they were all sleep-deprived.

It's just that if you sleep there like this, won't you catch a cold?Just as I was thinking, I saw Fuji put his coat on her body.I was surprised because Budu, who has always kept a distance from people with a smile, would also think of taking the initiative to take care of girls, and she was a senior who had only known each other for less than two days.

Apart from Echizen, Fuji has always been my favorite player in the team because he is very talented.It's a pity that he always looks like he doesn't care about anything, or in other words, I never see him being obsessed with anything.

It seems that, looking for an opportunity, I have to talk to him. After all, the national competition in junior high school is only the last time for our third-year students.

In the last class in the afternoon, the physics teacher was delayed, so when we got to the court, all the players from other grades were present.

The senior sister was much more energetic than in the morning, and the other team members were less affected.

To everyone's surprise, this senior has a very strange uncle.

It was a man wearing a black knitted hat and a black coat.I think this person must not be simple. Judging from his words, deeds, and that look in his eyes, he is a man who is full of insight and arrogance.

This senior who suddenly joined the tennis club has a different identity.I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for the tennis club.

——————————————— Time Separation Line ————————————————————————

With more contact, this senior sister only makes me feel elusive.Sometimes I'm so shrewd as if I have everything under control, but sometimes I'm so confused that I can't even take care of myself.

Every time I work in the department, I can see her dedication.However, despite her superficial efforts, I can still clearly feel that she is not our manager because she loves tennis.So, what is her purpose in joining the tennis club?

The conversation with Ryuzaki-sensei that day resurfaced again.

"Mr. Ryuzaki, about Manager Jiulan..."

"Tezuka, all I can tell you is that she's going to help us get to the Nationals."

"..."

"What? Don't believe me?"

"Since the teacher said so, I have no objection."

It can be seen from many places that Mr. Ryuzaki trusts her very much.

Well, I don't have much to say.What's more, the other team members have a good relationship with her. Let's talk about the dismissal of the manager after a while.

Soon, the regional competition was ushered in.

Even Echizen, who was late for the general meeting, arrived, but Senpai still didn't come.

Just as we were about to enter the venue, she called.

Although she knew she didn't forget on purpose, there was still a trace of displeasure in her heart.

According to my findings, every few days, the senior will stay up late, and after the physical training the next day, you will definitely see her drowsy on the bench.At this time, Buer is usually taking care of her, and occasionally, other team members will go to help.

I also helped once, but she was sleepy at the time, took my handkerchief, wiped my sweat and returned it to me, and said, "I'm sorry for your trouble, Buer." I really didn't know what to say.

After entering the arena, listen to them talking about their appearance arrangements.

In fact, I can guess without mentioning it, it is nothing more than a few arrangements.It's just that I'm curious if the newcomer Echizen has snatched the third singles position from Momoshiro.

Seeing the list of appearances, especially the arrangement of the second doubles, I made a mistake in judgment for the first time.Two people who were supposed to compete for the third singles position actually formed a doubles. Are you going to challenge?

Before I finished my doubts, I learned the whole story from my senior sister.It's just that one sentence that caught my attention.

Night Orange...

This is not the first time I have heard the name of this senior sister.At first, Fuji once jokingly said that I was too old-fashioned, and the girls I liked were usually older than me, and this senior named Yan Yecheng seemed to be the school belle of the high school.Because Fuji was once regarded as a "genius"
