[Comprehensive] different hearts

On weekends, the sky is clear.

The cherry blossom trees on both sides of the street are almost gone.

"Although it's only May, the weather has already started to heat up."

Whispering alone, Rina lowered the black peaked cap on his head and stepped into the tennis club he hadn't visited for a long time.It seems that I haven't been here since middle school...

Liming doesn’t like places with too many people. The rent of this club far away from the downtown area is low, but in contrast, the popularity is much lower. Fortunately, there are everything from rental tennis rackets to automatic serving machines, and the tennis courts are clean and tidy. , The glass was also wiped spotless.

When paying at the front desk, the dozing uncle glanced at her in a daze, recognized her, and readily confiscated the deposit, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Yongshan? I haven't seen you for a long time. What's the matter, no?" Have you played tennis?"

Li Ming, who got the temporary recharge card, explained with a smile: "I'm busier with my high school studies, so I didn't join the sports club anymore."

Li Ming paused when he said this. Speaking of which, the basketball club is also a sports club.But the shopkeeper didn't see her hesitation, he just said: "Hurry up and go in! No. 3 automatic court is broken, and there are already people in No. 2 court, so only No. 1 can still be used normally."

Now this time?

After Li Ming politely thanked her, she looked up at the wall clock on the wall, it was still early for the time agreed with Zhu Xu, she should go in and warm up first.

After all, she hasn't touched a tennis racket for a long time. Although she was a member of the girls' tennis club in middle school, she hasn't practiced for so long, and Zhuo has never slackened her training. It would be bad to be ashamed later.

The club has a regular tennis court and an automated court that can be used for individual practice. There are only three automatic courts, equipped with a special server. The uncle said that the server on the 3rd court is broken, so only No. 1 and No. 2 are left. .

There is a boy wearing a white peaked cap on court No. 2.

The boy has dark green hair and amber eyes as bright as some kind of feline. He holds the racket in his right hand, and the distance of movement is not large. The ball from the server falls on the racket in his hand as if guided by a silk thread. , and then, he quickly and effortlessly counterattacked to the opposite field.Even though he hit every ball from the machine without landing, the boy remained expressionless and unhappy.

Are you not satisfied with your game skills?

Liming stopped for a while because of this, but in fact, in her eyes, this kind of skill is already very good.However, there may be some wonderful field on the men's tennis court that can turn all the teenagers who have learned tennis into "magicians" who can play the scene of heaven and earth-shattering scenes-the power of tennis can also split the iron net. Is the crew stuffed with money?

Rina, who was fortunate enough to watch Atobe's cousin play a few official matches, said that he may not understand how the kind of tennis that violates Newton's laws is played for the rest of his life.

Straight into the No. 1 automated tennis court, Li Ming took off the racket bag on her shoulder, and found a light racket from inside. She tried the tightness of the tennis string, put the peaked cap on the racket bag, swiped the card and pressed Flicked the switch of the serve machine and returned to the half court opposite the serve machine.

"call……"

Rina inhaled and exhaled slowly, adjusted her breathing, and after a bright yellow tennis ball popped out from the ball machine, her eyes froze, Rina ran to the tennis ball and swung the racket——

30 serves, 6 turnovers, 4 of which were errors in the first 15 serves.

"Huh, ha..."

After the ball machine stopped, Rina recalled the data just now with some breathlessness.Sure enough, it's not good if I haven't played for too long.

However, at this moment, the crisp sound of hitting balls was still coming from the tennis court next door.Li Ming turned his head to see that the boy in the white peaked cap was still practicing, and he didn't seem to find it hard, nor was he sweating profusely.

——By the way, why doesn't the hat on his head fall off?Wait, Akashi-kun's coat won't fall off when he puts it on, so is it glued together?

Rina, who decided to take a break, bought a bottle of sports soda in front of the vending machine. She unscrewed the cap and took a sip, then squinted her eyes happily. The sound of tennis balls landing on court 2 was still heard. Rina thought about it for a while, put in the coins she got from the change just now, and took out the newly bought sports drink.

"Hey, you've practiced for so long, do you want to take a break?" Rina asked standing outside the court.

"No." The boy replied without raising his head.

"...Aren't you thirsty?" Li Ming, who was rarely rejected, pouted, put the sports drink on the bench and said, "I accidentally bought too much, please."

After saying this, Li Ming didn't take a few steps when he heard the sound of the mechanical rotation of the ball machine suddenly becoming agitated. Li Ming subconsciously looked towards the engine. Li Ming's forehead hit him.

boom--

Another tennis ball flew from the side, knocking away the ball that was about to hit Li Ming.

The boy with the tennis racket on his shoulder walked to the bench, took out another tennis ball from his tennis bag and said, "It's still far away. But..."

He bent down and picked up the sports drink on the stool, looked sideways at her and said, "thank you."

Rina smiled.

"You're welcome."

Dongyuan Zhuo is a junior in the women's tennis club of Liming Middle School, and also one of the witnesses of her bad times. After high school, the two separated because of their different wishes. Zhuo likes her current school and class very much, although she I also inadvertently said, "If I have any regrets or dissatisfaction... probably it is that I can't often play tennis with my eldest sister."

The opportunity for Rina to learn tennis was her cousin Atobe. She has good motor nerves, so her performance in tennis can be said to be unsatisfactory, but she doesn't like to make herself too tired. Tennis is only one of her hobbies. One, after entering high school, I gradually shelved it.

Zhu Xu is different, she loves tennis from the bottom of her heart.So now that the regional competition is approaching, she asked Li Ming to accompany her to practice tennis for a few days, saying that although she can also practice with the seniors in the tennis club, but with the eldest sister, her heart will be more peaceful!

Rina agreed without hesitation—after all, she and Zhuxu had known each other for a long time.There was still half an hour before the appointment with Zhuxu, and Li Ming, who had come to warm up in advance, planned to play two more games. When she was about to return to Court 1, there was a burst of noise outside the door.

"There's a ball machine over there...what are you doing, it's already been taken over."

Several teenagers walked into the club in groups, and the leader pointed his racket in their direction. When he introduced happily, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the tennis racket on the bench outside Court No. 1 and the teenager on Court No. 2.He squinted his eyes in dissatisfaction, walked forward, and said arrogantly: "Hey, then your things are yours, right? After playing for so long, it's time to change people. Go over there and have a rest."

It doesn't really matter the name of venue No. 1, anyway, she has almost warmed up, and it's just to pass the time if she continues, but it's not so satisfying to be driven away by arrogant people.

"However, we come first." Rina emphasized.

"I told you I'll let you guys later!" Seeing that it was a beautiful girl, the lead boy's accomplice stopped him weakly, but was ignored by the lead boy. He frowned impatiently, and his tone became fierce up.

Li Ming's eyes darkened.

At this time, the sound of throwing and hitting the ball came from the nearby tennis court. In the next moment, the tennis ball inserted into the middle of Li Ming and the leading boy with an extremely tricky angle and force. Wiping the face of the leading boy passed by.

...offspin serve?

Both Li Ming and the boy were stunned. The boy wearing a white peaked cap on the No. 2 tennis court bent down and picked up another tennis ball. You want this court, do you want a game?"

"Little devil...!"

"Brother Kimura, let me come." Another person stopped the angry leader boy, and said with a smile, "Little brother, Brother Kimura and I are a doubles team. If we compete, you may not be able to do it alone."

The boy in the white peaked cap opened his mouth slightly, and was about to say, "It doesn't matter if you two go together", when a girl's soft but firm voice came from beside him.

"Count me in." Li Ming smiled at the boy in the peaked cap, then turned to look at those who found fault and said, "There is a stadium for competitions over there."

No one from either side raised any doubts, so the matter of the doubles match was confirmed in this way.Before going on the field, Li Ming walked up to the boy in the peaked cap who was tidying up the network cables, and politely introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Yong Shan Li Ming, please give me your advice for the next game, I will try my best not to delay my progress."

"Yeah." He replied, "Hello."

"Excuse me, what is your name...?"

"Echizen Ryoma."

The game completely showed a one-sided trend.When she observed him returning the ball from the server, Rina knew that Echizen was extraordinary in tennis. In fact, he was even better than she expected. None of the balls sent by his hands were caught by the opponent. Understand.

Similarly, none of the balls sent to his half from the opposite side were missed.Li Ming didn't bother at all, and the game ended with a score of 6-0 without any suspense.

Of course those people were not convinced, but worried about Echizen's outspin serve and the boy's self-esteem, the boy surnamed Kimura in the lead gave them a hard look, and still gritted his teeth and left.

"Echizen-kun is very powerful." Li Ming was never stingy about boasting, she thought for a while and said, "Maybe we will have a good conversation with my cousin."

"The ball you just played... like someone I know." Echizen Ryoma said suddenly, as if being reminded of something by his name.

"Eh?"

"The King of Monkey Mountain."

"...Pfft." Li Ming suddenly reacted after being stunned for a moment. She couldn't hold back a "puff" smile and said, "Do you know my cousin Keigo Atobe?" Monkey Mountain King...seemed that there was nothing wrong.

She learned tennis from her cousin Atobe, so it's not surprising that she has a bit of his shadow.

"En." Echizen replied, at this time he had put all his rackets into his racket bag, as if packing up and leaving.

Rina unscrewed the cap of the soda bottle and took a sip, then asked a little strangely: "Since Echizen-kun is already planning to leave, why are you competing with the group of people just now?"

"Because," Echizen adjusted the peaked cap on his head, raised his lips slightly, and said in a statement-like tone, but not aggressive, "they are still far behind."

Li Ming chuckled and said, "Well, that's true."

Not long after Echizen Ryoma left, the hour hand quietly pointed to eleven o'clock, and the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door of the club. Rina, who was resting against the wall, turned her head to look. waved.

"Ma'am!"

"Long time no see, Zhuo." Li Ming stood up straight.

"There were so many people on the tram this morning, I almost couldn't get on the train...By the way, when did the eldest sister arrive?" Complaining casually, Zhuo noticed that there was only half of the soda bottle in Li Ming's hand A drink, so asked.

"It's half an hour earlier than you. I haven't played for a long time, and I'm training with Zhuxu again. Of course, I have to practice hard." Li Ming said truthfully.

"Okay~ But I won't lose! Even if the opponent is the eldest sister!" Zhu Xu vowed to declare war.

after an hour.

Zhu Xu was lying on the tennis court in a "big" shape, panting and shouting: "Ah, I'm exhausted."

"Then let's stop fighting, let's rest." Li Ming came over and sat next to Zhuxu. Her condition was not much better than Zhuxu, and she handed the iced can to Zhuxu and said, "It's almost twelve Alright, let's go have lunch."

"Okay, let's talk... this is near Diguang, by the way!" Zhu Xu turned over and sat up, and suddenly suggested, "Let's go to Diguang after dinner, and also, it's been a long time to go to the nearby middle school How about that restaurant?"

"Ah...that one," although Zhu Xu didn't directly name the restaurant, Li Ming understood Zhu Xu's thoughts tacitly, she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to that restaurant."
