[Net King] The girl who clashes with the sun

What is victory?

For some, victory may just be a badge of honor along the way.

But if you ask a group of teenagers, what is victory?

They may answer that victory is the strongest and most steadfast obsession in their life.

Perhaps as an adult, looking back, this victory is insignificant among all the victories, big and small, and these obsessions persist so that people want to laugh.But for them at that moment - victory is everything.

For Li Haida, who has always been called the king, and for them, victory is like this.

But no one expected that the Lihai Conference would lose consecutively in the singles two and doubles one competitions.

It's not a show, it's real this time.

Looking at the score of the game displayed on the big screen, the worry in Liangjing girl's heart became more and more obvious.

But the atmosphere on Li Haida's side had become very serious at some point, and even the momentum of those cheering people behind began to gradually weaken.

The situation of two wins and two losses means that the burden of winning or losing is bound to fall on Yukimura's shoulders as the singles one.

Liang Jing did not believe in Li Haida, nor did he not believe in Ah Shi's ability.

Dr. Yagyu said long ago that the operation was successful, and if there is no recurrence, it will not affect normal life, and even continuing to play tennis is no problem.

but--

No matter how bad it was, he had just walked out of the ward and had just finished his rehabilitation.

Even if he is called the "Son of God" by everyone, he is just a boy of the same age as himself.

The girl from Liangjing looked at the contestants next door. For some reason, she always felt that the facial expressions of the people from Qingxue were very good.

"I just went outside to buy water, do you know what I saw..." Mei Mazi's voice sounded from the stairs, and she walked carefully from the front of Nanli and Liangjing to her seat and sat down.

Passing drinks to the left and right people respectively, she said mysteriously: "Qingxue's freshman, several people accompanied him to play tennis in an empty tennis court."

"He—seems to have lost his memory!"

She seemed a little excited when she spoke, but deliberately lowered her voice.

What does the opponent's amnesia mean?

Lihai can win without a fight.

The idea of ​​expecting others not to restore their memories is naturally very bad, but the Liangjing girl really hopes so at this moment.

Even if it is said that it won without a fight, it is also fine if it is luck.

She didn't want Ah Shi to stand up from the coach's bench and walk into the arena.

But it seems——

Just like Li Haida's victory will never be as simple as what is written in a few words in tennis newspapers, or their two-year victory can be summed up with a single photo.

There are too many uncertain factors, such as Sanada, and Kintaro Toyama wearing a leopard-print sleeveless T.

When Shiraishi nervously called out Kintaro's name, the Liangjing girl looked towards the place where Shitenbao Temple was located.

I saw Kintaro Toyama turned over the stands and came to the field, with his hands behind his head, walking carelessly to Yukimura, who was sitting on the coach's bench and hadn't entered the field for a long time.

"Hey! General Li Hai, before Echizen comes, can you compete with me in a showdown?" After speaking, the originally innocent smiling face suddenly opened eyes full of fighting spirit and curiosity. , bent slightly, he got closer, and then said, "Please advise!"

The Liangjing girl frowned, and looked at Baishi and the others again. It was obvious that they hadn't expected Xiao Jin's actions at this time, but they had no intention of stopping them.

Maybe it's the so-called sportsmanship, everyone seems to be helping Qingxue.

The girl from Liangjing looked at Kintaro who was stopped by the two referees and was still fussing about competing with Yukimura, and softly "tsk", not knowing what she wanted to express.

It may be ridicule, even if he is so entangled with ridicule, Ah Shi will not pay more attention to it.

Or speechless, speechless, why does he like pestering others to play against him so much.

Unexpectedly, he agreed.

Ah Shi agreed.

Before he agreed, Liang Jing saw him turn his head and look at Kaitai, and she was sure that Ah Shi was looking at her.

Yukimura turned his head, picked up the tennis racket that was on the side and stood up, "Then let's play a game, Toyama-kun."

Echizen of Aigaku still hasn't come back.

The one called Yuan Shan, is he stalling for time?

Yukimura and Toyama's ball was not as long as the previous one between Toyama and Echizen. Kintaro didn't even use the trick with a very long name and difficult to memorize, and was unilaterally suppressed by Yukimura.

After a while, the man who had played so wildly and vigorously before, as if the strength in his body would never be exhausted, knelt on the ground with his hands on his hands in a daze, as if he had lost his mind. Like a soul.

When the Liangjing girl saw Shiraishi and Ninzuzu nervously climbed over the fence and went to the far mountain, she suddenly heard Miasako next to her speak.

"Koi, don't you think your boyfriend is handsome?? Ah——Sure enough, Yukimura is the most powerful when playing tennis." Mimako clasped her fingers in front of her chest, and looked at the court with a bewildered expression. At this time, Yukimura was still wearing his jacket over his shoulders after playing a round.

Indeed, he now seems to be a king who despises everything and is aloof.Liang Jing thought so.

Seeing no response for a long time, Miasako turned her head to look at Liangjing girl, seeing that she was not looking at the court, so she looked in the direction she was looking.

It was the entrance to a certain stadium stand, and there was a short man in a baseball cap standing there.

I saw him raising his racket high and pointing in the direction of the court.

It seemed that he had said a word, but because of the distance, none of the Liangjing girls and others sitting in the front row of the stands could hear what he said clearly.Just in the next second, Liang Jing heard cheers from all over the stadium.

After a moment of silence, the girl from Liangjing looked at Miasako, and complained expressionlessly: "Except for the people from Lihai University, are everyone here a supporter of Qingxue?"

"...No, isn't it?"

Let alone a strong school famous for tennis, Lihai University's popularity and support rate are not so bad.

"Then why are the cheers one after another 3D around my ears?"

"Because the audience is more looking forward to seeing the strong being pulled down from the throne than being crushed by one-sided strength." On the other side, Nan Li, who had not spoken much, suddenly said, and saw that her expression was still so gentle at the moment, but her eyes were full of excitement. There was also a hint of dissatisfaction, "And now there is such a trend, the reaction of the audience is naturally strong."

Would rather - see being pulled off the throne...?

The girl from Liangjing clenched her fists slightly and put them on both sides of her body, looking at the two people who were talking face to face in the arena.

Perhaps all she can do now is to choose to trust Ah Shi.

it's OK.

A few days ago, the person named Echizen was only able to draw with Yuanshan, and now Yuanshan was easily defeated by Ashi, so Echizen should be the same.

Besides, didn't that sign say it?

Believe it will change the situation for the better.The Liangjing girl comforted herself in this way.

The first ball started on the court, and Yukimura didn't see any signs of decline between you and me. On the other hand, the man named Echizen seemed to have tried his best.

It doesn't seem very strong, Liang Jing thought.

But when he saw Yukimura's coat fell on the tennis court after a ball, Ryoi overturned his thoughts again.

"Red also."

Hearing the shout behind him, Kirihara, who had just accepted the coat thrown by Yukimura in a daze, looked at the Ryoi girl who made the sound.

"Can I have the coat?"

Kirihara scratched his head and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he stepped forward and handed the coat to the girl from Liangjing from the first row, "The minister's coat fell off."

"So?" The Liangjing girl asked with a calm expression while taking the coat.

"The minister's coat has never been dropped on a tennis court."

"It's so hot in summer, so it's okay if you don't want to wear it?" The girl from Liangjing folded her coat neatly and put it on her lap, "Huh?"

But the coat fell off by himself, not by the minister...

Kirihara, who clearly sensed that something was wrong with Liangjing girl's tone, wanted to say that, but he stopped in time and turned back to the side of the stands.

On the playing field, Echizen still used all his remaining tricks like cannonballs after being provocative, but each ball was easily resolved one by one by the opponent Yukimura and hit back.

that's it.

If this goes on, you can win.

Li Haida will be able to defend the title, and Ashi and the others will be able to successfully achieve their goal of winning the championship three times in a row.

The Liangjing girl pursed her lips tightly, her eyes kept watching every ball played by the two people on the field.

Even at this moment, she still can't feel the enthusiasm when they play, but she, like everyone in Lihai University, hopes that this game can be won.

It can be said to be a sense of team honor, but most of the reason is because this team is led by Yukimura.

As the girl from Ryoi had hoped, Yukimura was always the one who scored. No matter how hard Echizen tried, he couldn't score even a single point from him, and gradually fell into decline.

【4:0】

【4:0】It was like Li Haida's turning point, haunting them like a demon.

Echimae, who obviously had no confidence in the game after the elimination of the five senses, became refreshed all of a sudden after being in a very sad and embarrassing situation, as if reborn.

It was as if God made a joke with her, with Yukimura, and with everyone in Lihai.

Ryoi couldn't believe that the confused expression on Echizen's face that he saw before would also appear on Yukimura.He couldn't catch a ball, and when he did, he just hit it back.

So embarrassed, so embarrassing.

End it, or stop at this second.

No...it shouldn't be this second.

It can't be at this moment of embarrassment.

Shouldn't the ending be like this?

He decided so embarrassingly to have an operation, and worked so hard to recover with all his strength, just for such an ending?

When the score was [4:4], Liang Jing walked to the front of the stands.

She heard the boy named Echizen Ryoma say to her Ashi: "Are you enjoying playing tennis?"

The relaxed and wanton look made Liang Jing deeply frown.

Although everyone has their own position, in her opinion, Yukimura and all the efforts of Tachikai Masho were offended by his words.

Does the fun of tennis necessarily contradict the obsession with winning?

Another three goals passed, and Yukimura still lost points again and again.

It can be said that since Echizen stood on the field like a different person, he has not scored a single point.

"Really? I've never seen Yukimura like that."

"But at this point, it is indeed gradually beginning to show omissions..."

Liang Jing heard Jackal and Nio say this in his ears, one was purely shocked, and the other was helpless after being shocked.

"What? Even you don't believe he will win?" Liang Jing held the iron railing tightly with both hands, and looked at the two of them with a cold expression.

This is probably the first time she has intervened in the internal discussions of the tennis club.

It was also the first time that people in the tennis club saw her express other than a blank face and a smile.

They suddenly realized that Ishida and Yukimura belonged to the same kind of person, and they both had masks to protect themselves. One had a gentle smile that never changed, and the other had a cute, paralyzed expressionless face.

Only now, both of their masks are shattered.

After a while, the score became [4:5]

Yukimura 4, Echizen 5

Perhaps because he felt that his condition was not right or something else, Yukimura took the initiative to apply for an intermission.

Seeing him approaching step by step, Liang Jing pursed his lips, handed him a towel just brought from the logistics department, and said, "Wipe off your sweat."

Yukimura might still be puzzled and confused, but he was stunned when he saw the towel.

Looking up and seeing Liang Jing, he forced a smile, "Thank you."

Liang Jing shook his head and said, "Don't worry about what other people say, since it's a competition, you have to do your best."

After a few seconds, Liang Jing felt that something was missing again.

Looking back, she saw the banner of the Lihai Support Group, and then suddenly remembered that she almost forgot to cheer him on.

Seeing him sitting on the coach chair with his head bowed and silent, Liang Jing summoned up his courage and said to him: "Ashi, come on. Also——Li Haida, Chang Sheng."

The sound is not loud, but not light.

Yukimuramoto hung his head under a towel, and when he heard these words, his closed eyes opened.

When he adjusted his mood and looked at Liangjing, the corners of Yukimura's lips had already dropped, but his face was still as gentle as ever, "Xiaojing, I think the same."

Enjoy tennis?He naturally understands the fun, otherwise why would he be standing here.

It's just the king's rules, one of which is never to allow defeat.

This is the iron law.

"Thank you." Yukimura finally smiled again as he handed the towel back to Liang Jing.

Refreshing and flamboyant, who wouldn't?

Yukimura picked up the racket and returned to his half court again, "Kid, go on. Play what you call - happy tennis."

The ultimate in seamlessness?

Then I will give him a crack!

Liang Jing looked at Yukimura who had returned to the game, and felt that something had changed.

Hesitation, frustration, at least these negative emotions disappeared, but it seemed that something unclear was born.

He smiled, but it wasn't his usual smile.

Look happy.

Next, no one knew what happened.

But the situation has changed.

The previous change in the situation, the change in Echizen is visible to the naked eye.

But this time, Yukimura just changed back to the Yukimura who was in his home field and could look down on the world.

So far, the two sides have become evenly matched again, and Echizen was not able to take a ball from Yukimura so easily as before.

【15:30】

【15:40】

【30:40】

In such an anxious pursuit of each other, the referee reported the score again.

On the big screen, the score [5:5] is displayed

Yukimura finally won another set after losing points one after another.

"The Jingshi I know is back again."

At some point, Nanli Sangzhu had already stood beside the Liangjing girl.

"Since he's back, this game will definitely be won."

Liang Jing looked at Nanli for a long time, nodded as if affirming her statement, and turned his gaze back to the field again.

Because Echizen's strength suddenly increased, the two sides became evenly matched. Inevitably, the score between the two formed [6:6], and the referee announced that it was a tie-break.

That is, whoever wins two goals first wins.

Liang Jing only remembered that a long time passed, you came and I kept going.

The turning point came when Echizen suddenly jumped into the air and slammed down a ball with his racket.

The ball rubbed against the net for a few seconds, then split and bounced towards Yukimura.

……

Liang Jing thought of the previous draw.

"Give me the win!! Yukimura!!!"

Sanada's voice sounded next to the cool well, very abrupt, but refreshing.

The ball, being hit by half and half, hit the opposite field respectively, on two diagonals.

It was impossible for Echizen to run the entire baseline in one second and hit the ball back to Yukimura.

After half of them were barely hit back, the other half was already powerless.

For Yukimura, the opponent's emergency response hits the ball back and is naturally full of flaws.

He raised a confident smile, like a king, and hit the half of the tennis ball back.

Score [6:7]

Yukimura is that 7

he won...

He won.

He won!

After staring at the large electronic scoring screen for a while, Liang Jing slowly realized from the long game—her Ashi won.

In an instant, cheers erupted from Lihai's side.

As for the main candidates standing next to Liangjing, they had already flocked to Yukimura from the stands.

Looking at the group of boys in khaki uniforms who were laughing wantonly in the arena, Liang Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lowering her head, Liang Jing smiled, only to realize that she was still holding the towel that Yukimura had wiped off his sweat just now.

Hmm... At this time, there may be some sweat from my hands mixed in.

……

Probably more than a few.

"What? I won the game, so why don't you even give me a towel?"

Yukimura's voice appeared under the stands.

Liang Jing looked at him, and waved the towel in his hand in embarrassment, "I just sweated a lot... Shall I change it for you?"

"Just this one." Yukimura took off the sweatband from his forehead, and smoothed his hair back with his hands, "I, Yukimura Seichi, will never dislike anything about Koi in my life."

This is the first time Liangjing heard Yukimura say such explicit words, and it was still in this kind of public place.

Shyly handing the towel to him below, Liang Jing quickly withdrew his hand.

Yukimura took the towel and smiled, perhaps with a victorious mood, he felt that everything is very beautiful now.

For example, she blushed and didn't dare to look at her own well, for example, there was still a towel with the warmth in her palm.

The award ceremony began after the teams had a short rest.

As the minister of Rikkai University, the heavy trophy was naturally held by the minister Yukimura.

Standing in the stands, Liang Jing looked at their entire team, picked up his phone and smiled, leaving the picture in front of him on the screen.

She couldn't express her feelings at this moment, but when Yukimura won many tennis tournament trophies many years later, Liang Jing looked at the printed photo in the photo frame, and the belated words suddenly arrived In my head—

I am honored to take part in all your victories.

How did Yukimura respond?

He said: "Xiaojing, do you know? The greatest victory I have achieved in this life is that you never leave my eyes."
