The heating in the car was very sufficient, and Echizen Jinshu got used to it after Echizen Nanjuerang also got in the car.

He lowered his eyes and rubbed the back of Xiaoyu's head on his lap, then smiled and joked: "Xiaoyu is really a big warm baby~"

Hearing this joke, Xiaoyu, who was not restrained but was squatting on his lap, stood up, turned around and pointed his back at Echizen Jinshu, just like a little daughter-in-law who was having an quarrel.

Watching this scene, Echizen Jinshu chuckled and raised her hand to touch Xiaoyu's head.

But the little fish didn't give him any chance. As soon as his palm touched the hair that was shining golden in the sun, he tilted his head to avoid it.

Seeing this, Echizen Jinshu, who had a smile on her face, raised her eyebrows, and with a bad taste in her heart, she approached again, but Xiaoyu also dodged again.

After repeating it several times, looking at the little fish that was avoiding Rua's head but not getting off my lap at all, Echizen Jinshu teased with a smile in her words: "You can hide, but why didn't you get off my lap? ~"

Hearing this, Xiaoyu's cat ears moved, but his body remained motionless with his back to her.

Echizen Jinshu looked at it with a smile on her face. She stretched out her finger with even more malice in her heart and poked Xiao Yu's fur back.

Xiaoyu, who was poked once, ignored it and still faced her with his back.

Seeing this, Echizen Jinshu narrowed her eyes and continued to poke Xiaoyu's back with her finger.

Feeling that his little master was poking his back in annoyance, Xiaoyu turned his head and looked at her helplessly with eyes full of "Is this how you coax a cat?!"

Echizen Jinshu understood the meaning and said with a smile: "Isn't this Xiaoyu, why don't you ignore me~"

Seeing that she was raking him backwards and being unreasonable, Xiaoyu let out a long sigh through his nose, stood up, came close to Echizen Jinshu's cheek, and then rubbed it.

Immediately afterwards, he put his front paws on Echizen Jinshu's shoulders, and the cat lay on his body.

Big warm baby? Xiaoyu: Since you don’t want to coax me, then I’d better coax you~

Feeling the itching coming from her neck, Echizen Jinshu raised her hand and rubbed it twice along Xiaoyu's back from top to bottom.

Afterwards, Echizen Jinshu, who had a bad taste in her heart, laughed and joked: "You are so clingy to me~ Xiaoyu, are you doing something bad and you are afraid that I will find out~"

Echizen Nangero who was driving couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Xiaoyu, who was lying in his arms, stood up, covered Echizen Jinshu's mouth with his front paws, and began to cry "Meow, meow, meow!"

Seeing Xiaoyu's "Stop talking!" look in her eyes, Echizen Jinshu couldn't help but laugh.

Maoyan watched her little master laugh at her little fish, meowing and cursing, and involuntarily slapping her arm with its tail.

Echizen Jinshu stopped laughing and looked at it, raised her hand and scratched its chin with her fingers.

The little fish, who was very comfortable being scratched, narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but make a "purring~" sound.

Seeing the enjoyment written on the cat's face, Echizen Jinshu's smile deepened, she raised her hand to reach for its whiskers, and said aloud: "Is it so comfortable~?"

As he spoke, he tugged on its beard without much force.

But in the next second, a beard left Xiaoyu's cheek and lay quietly between Echizen Jinshu's two fingers.

The scene fell into silence for a moment.

Echizen Jinshu, with a frozen smile on her face: "..."

Xiaoyu turned around and looked at him: "..."

Seeing Xiaoyu turn his head and look at him with cat eyes that read "You have to give me an explanation!", Echizen Jinshu laughed dryly and explained: "I didn't use much force, Xiaoyu. I have to use force." Your face is deformed..."

After saying that, looking at Xiaoyu's suspicious eyes, Echizen Jinshu then proposed a solution: "How about... I put your beard back on?"

As he spoke, he inserted the whiskers between his two fingers into the whiskers on the little fish cat's face.

Then he released his hand and looked at Echizen Jinshu, who was looking at the beard firmly resting on his cheek, and said, "Look, the beard has been put back."

Seeing his little master covering his ears, the little fish sighed helplessly, raised his front paws and pulled his cheeks twice, and then the beard fell off again.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his head and rubbed Echizen Jinshu's chin twice, and then fell into his arms.

Seeing Xiaoyu pressing on her, Echizen Jinshu raised her eyebrows and said while rutting: "This is because the weather is getting colder, so Xiaoyu, you have to hibernate~"

In front, Echizen Nanjuerang looked at Echizen Jinshu holding the little fish, and then responded with a smile: "It's just that the weather has gotten colder, and the little fish has become too lazy to move."

After finishing speaking, he paused and continued to ask while looking at the road: "This competition is over, Shushu, should you stay home?"

And Xiaoyu, who was nestled in Echizen Jinshu's arms and heard Echizen Nanjuelang's question, also raised his head and looked at her with dark green cat eyes.

Feeling Xiaoyu's gaze, Echizen Jinshu stretched out her hand and rubbed its head, and then answered the question with a smile: "At least for a short time, I won't have any competitions. If there are...it will be in the four major competitions."

Hearing the implication that he would not go out again, Echizen Nangero nodded: "That's good. After going out for such a long time, you should have a good rest at home and combine work and rest."

The little fish in his arms lay back down again after learning that Echizen Jinshu would stay at home.

After finishing speaking, Echizen Nangero paused, glanced at Echizen Jinshu, and then informed: "Aqing has already bought the New Year's cards. You know the addresses of your teammates... right?"

Echizen Jinshu, who was smoothing Xiaoyu's hair, nodded and responded: "You all know. I found the head coach yesterday and got the address."

Seeing that it had been solved, Echizen Nangerou nodded, and asked about the situation in Australia on the way, and finally returned home.

After driving the car in the garage, Echizen Jinshu opened the door, got out of the car with Xiaoyu in her arms, then picked up her tennis bag and walked toward the house.

Seeing her daughter walking quickly, Echizen Haru smiled and said, "Why don't you put the little fish down? You won't be afraid of tiring yourself."

As he spoke, he turned sideways to let Echizen Jinshu in, who was almost inside the house.

Echizen Jinshu, who entered the room and placed the tennis bag and small fish on the wall and the floor at the same time, responded while changing her shoes: "It's okay~ I didn't wear weights on the plane, so it's not too heavy to hold it together. Besides, it's still warm." "

Hearing this, Echizen Haru chuckled, glanced at Xiaoyu and said, "Sure enough, it was the right decision to let Xiaoyu pick you up at the airport."

Hearing this, Echizen Jinshu, who had changed her shoes, stretched out her hand to rub the little fish's head, and then picked up the tennis bag placed aside: "Mom, let me put the tennis bag back in the room first~"

At Echizen Haru's nod, Echizen Jinshu walked towards the stairs.

After entering the room and closing the door, taking out the box containing the medals and putting them away, Echizen Jinshu took out her home clothes and walked to the bathroom.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, Echizen Jinshu went downstairs, helped, and sat down to have lunch together.

Finally, Echizen Haru and the other two urged him to go back to the room and take a nap.

In desperation, Echizen Jinshu went upstairs and returned to her room.

Glancing down at Xiao Yu who was following him, Echizen Jinshu, who felt that she had forgotten something, muttered in her heart: 'Why does it feel like there is still something unfinished...'

While thinking about it, his eyes looked towards the desk on the other side of the room, where there was a thick stack of New Year's cards.

'ah! I forgot to tell my brother and the others that they were safe! ! ’

Echizen Jinshu suddenly remembered after seeing the New Year's card and ran to the bed. She put her phone on the bed when she was getting a change of clothes.

Stopping at the bedside, Echizen Jinshu picked up the mobile phone Ming Huang placed on it and turned it on. At the same time, she thought in her heart: 'I hope they are not in a hurry...'

Thinking like this, the phone automatically connected to WIFI when it was turned on, and the message notification tone only sounded a few times.

Seeing this scene, Echizen Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief in her heart: "Fortunately, I told them before boarding the plane, and now they are on the plane if they should be on the plane, and resting if they should be." ’

After reading the news, Echizen Jinshu sent messages to Echizen Ryuya and others that they had arrived home safely, and then walked to the desk.

Looking at the blank New Year's card, Echizen Jinshu, rubbing her chin, thought to herself: 'She (they) should be good at Chinese... After all, the school has organized exchange meetings...'

‘But... what if some of them (them) don’t speak Chinese well? Forget it...just write it in Japanese...'

With this thought in mind, Echizen Jinshu reached for a pen, opened the address sent by head coach Ishizumi, and began to write a New Year's card.

The little fish, which had been watching its little master through cat eyes, used its hind legs to jump onto the desk, then squatted aside and watched her writing movements, with its tail resting on her left arm.

Hearing the noise, Echizen Jinshu raised her head and glanced at it, letting it stay by her side.

The winter sunshine shines into the house through the window, shining on Echizen Jinshu and Xiaoyu, looking like they are peacefully passing through the years.

-

Time passed by with the rustle of writing, and in a blink of an eye it was 5 or 6 o'clock in the evening. The little fish beside him had already fallen asleep on the table.

Looking at the New Year's card with one-third of it written on the right side, Echizen Jinshu rubbed her wrist, stood up from the chair and started to move her body.

As early as 3 or 4 o'clock, Echizen Ryuya and others had arrived home and sent a safe message to Echizen Jinshu.

On the desk, Xiaoyu, who woke up from the sound of Echizen Jinshu getting up, stood up, stretched back and forth, then jumped to the ground, and then surrounded Echizen Jinshu and called "meow meow".

Seeing this, Echizen Jinshu, who had finished exercising, looked at it with a smile and asked: "Are you hungry?"

Xiaoyu, who looked at Echizen Jinshu with cat eyes, heard this and said "meow~" in a soft and waxy voice, with eyes full of anticipation.

Looking at this scene, Echizen Jinshu, with arched eyebrows, responded in a brisk tone: "Let's go~ It's time for us to have dinner."

After saying that, he walked towards the door of the room, with Xiaoyu following beside him.

After dinner, Echizen Jinshu, who watched TV in the living room, went back to her room, said good night, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Also in the evening, the International Tennis Association headquarters in London, England.

The chairman and members came to the conference room after knowing the final results of the men's and women's sides of this U-17 World Cup and sorting out all player information.

The first thing to start with was the man’s various videos about ‘ability resonance’.

Member C, who watched the video, was the first to express emotion: "This 'ability resonance' is rare. During the entire competition, I only saw it a handful of times."

Member D, who still had some unfinished thoughts in his heart, chimed in: "Isn't that true?! Only by appreciating and trusting each other can things happen. This can't just happen!"

After finishing speaking, he paused, as if he remembered something, and then added: "Except Echizen Jinshu!"

Listening to member D’s supplement with a strong desire to survive, member A laughed out loud, then looked at him and joked: “You react very quickly~”

Immediately afterwards, videos of the players who stood out from the competition began to play on the projection screen, and junior high school students accounted for more than half of these videos.

And of this half, the Japanese team occupies another half.

After watching the video end, member F, whose eyes were full of interest, said loudly: "This Japanese team player's tennis is quite interesting."

Member B, who was holding his chin with both hands, heard this and smiled and echoed: "Indeed. Each player has his or her own abilities, and it can be said that a hundred flowers bloom."

Member E, who looked away from the projection screen, spoke at this moment: "Both the German and Spanish teams also have a player whose nationality is Japanese."

When several people were talking about it, member A, who was thoughtful and half-joking, said: "Although the men's World Cup champion is Spain, Japan is obviously more interesting. What do you think...should we let middle school and high school students from various countries I will go to Japan to study~"

Member C, who was not worried about this, waved his hand: "After the World Cup, there will definitely be a lot of middle and high school students who are interested in Japan. They will make their own arrangements."

Member D, who was rubbing his chin, had an idea flash in his mind, and suggested in a slightly excited tone: "Let the next U-17 World Cup be held in Japan! What do you think?!"

After hearing this proposal, member B, who thought for a moment, nodded in agreement: "I think it's feasible, what about you?"

"It's not impossible. Tennis in Japan is very interesting."

"Yes, yes. But...is there a competition venue in Japan that can accommodate so many people?"

"There should be... Tennis is so popular now that there will be no competition venues in Japan that can accommodate more than [-] people."

"If it really doesn't work, let Japan expand by investing something or something. After all, this World Cup Japan has attracted the attention of the whole world."

"..."

Listening to the discussions among the members, the chairman at the main seat made a final decision: "Then the next U-17 World Cup will be held in Japan. There are other competition venues, and Tokyo should also have them."

The members who understood the meaning of the words responded in unison without saying anything more.

Immediately afterwards, the projection screen began to play the video of the women's players again. Likewise, the Japanese team occupies half.

Watching the video finally freeze on Echizen Jinshu's body bursting with blue light, member B exclaimed: "It's amazing! It has raised the level of tennis to a higher level."

As soon as he finished speaking, member D looked at the chairman and raised his hand and said: "Chairman, can we make an exception now and let Echizen Jinshu become a professional tennis player?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent, and all the members looked at the chairman on the main seat.

Members all know in their hearts that Echizen Jinshu now has the qualifications and strength to become a professional tennis player.

The chairman glanced at the members on both sides, and then spoke slowly: "No rush. Let Echizen Jinshu participate in the three major tennis events in the first half of the year. After she wins the youth trophies of these three tennis events and registers as a professional at the age of 14, , all her four major tournaments and tours will be arranged in the adult category."

After hearing this, all the members were shocked.

Member A, who came back to his senses, was the first to speak: "This is not good, is Echizen Jinshu allowed to participate in the adult competition for those over 14 years old when she is 16 years old?"

The chairman who looked away responded: "Why not? She has the strength to win four youth tennis championships at the age of 13, so it would be a waste of money to stay in the youth group. Moreover, she competes more with professional players in the adult group. By fighting, you can also find out your own shortcomings, and your tennis level will be improved to a higher level."

After speaking, he paused and then said: "If anyone is dissatisfied, let them speak with their own strength."

Seeing this, the members had no objections, and they also wanted to see if Echizen Jinshu could establish a firm foothold among professional players at the age of 14.
