figure skating king

Both Katharina and Zhu Ling expressed their understanding of the fact that Yuuri went to St. Petersburg after recovering from illness, and to be honest, Zhu Ling just took over the position of leader. She has been busy recently, and she is not very busy.

It is also a good thing to let the children move around freely, and take care of the orphan of the second-in-command who has passed away.

Speaking of which, the kid has already passed the IELTS TOEFL test, as well as the professional Russian test, so he doesn’t need to go to a language school. He can usually study by himself, or he can just follow White into Moscow University and take computer and mathematics classes at the university. Therefore, his usual time allocation is also more free.

If it weren't for preparing for the national competition, maybe the kid would start to take on the tasks of going abroad from time to time like his predecessors. After all, he has also passed the seventh game, and he can be called "big brother" even if he is lowered.

However, in order to be considerate to the mothers, Yuuri will also take the initiative to take over jobs to help them share some work. At the beginning of December, he and An Jie entered [12 white foxes] and got the clue chip [3.12. Algae floating in the depths].

Perhaps losing the former leader and second in command was really a big blow, but Anatole had already arranged everything before leaving, and Makar also honestly served as the second in command to assist Zhu Ling wholeheartedly, without causing trouble. So Jadeite gradually stabilized, and Zhu Ling also took over Anatoly's previous connections.

The organization has gradually stepped into a stable development and daily life.

And when the two mothers were so busy, Yuuri moved to live with Amy for a while in addition to daily training and picking up jobs. To be honest, Yuuri was more worried about Amy than the unfamiliar Victor. .

So after living with him for a week, Amy found that she had gained three catties.

She couldn't laugh or cry and shouted to Yuuri who was busy in the kitchen: "Little Pumpkin, I seem to be really getting fat!"

Yuuri looked back at her and said, "No, you are still very slim, and you will be fine even if you gain five catties."

There is a kind of slimness in this world called "Little Pumpkin thinks you can gain another five catties".

She looked at Yuuri with a helpless smile: "Okay, I'm going to return to perform in the band next week, now it's time to start losing weight, and you don't have to work too hard, aren't you preparing for the full-day competition recently? Don't work too hard."

The child put a bowl of pork cutlet rice on the table without saying a word, looked at Amy, and asked gently: "Then let's finish this meal and start to lose weight, shall we?"

Amy was silent for two seconds, and nodded firmly: "Okay! Let's do it!"

To be honest, after living with Yuuri for a while, Amy found it really comfortable to live with Yuuri.

First of all, the kid is a well-bred kid with good living habits. He never causes trouble for others, and he loves to be clean. Since Yuuri came, the house has always been cleaned up and the floor is so shiny. , The clothes are all washed and ironed and folded neatly.

Moreover, he cooks delicious food, and his breeding (not a typo) technology is top-notch. Amy can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with him, which is nutritious, healthy and delicious. Even if you want to go to bed late at night, the child will drive her to bed, or set an alarm clock It is stipulated that she must go to bed after the alarm clock rings, but if she is really busy, the child will take the initiative to prepare supper, and will remind her to add or remove clothes in advance when the weather changes, and insist on taking her to the gym for exercise at least two days a week At least 90 minutes.

Although she weighed three catties, touching her ruddy face, Amy had to admit that she didn't worry about anything these days, and she often received care from little angels, and even had a feeling that life was full of sunshine.

Amy's own parents have never loved her so much.

Alas, if that child can grow up, there may be many boys and girls fighting for him, but Amy doesn't expect to introduce Yuuri to Victor as a friend right now.

What is the nature of her son? She has a B number. Although she is more precocious than her peers, Victor is actually a young man who is devoted to figure skating, hot on the outside and cold on the inside. There were quite a few times, and even she and Andre were not exempt, which meant that he didn't take other people's affairs very seriously.

As a mother, she can say very pertinently that there are not many people who can bear this kind of personality. Although she has mentioned Victor many times, it is obvious that her nagging has not improved her son's memory.

She wanted Yuuri and Vicka to be friends before because she knew that Yuuri had a good temper, even for the sake of himself and Andre, he would definitely get along with Vicka and take good care of Vicka.

She gave up that idea because of this. After all, you can’t let a 9-year-old pumpkin accommodate 13-year-old Victor just because Yuuri has a good temper. If you coax a child, the age difference is also reversed. Besides, Yuuri has a strong sense of time. He is organized and well-planned, and may not get along well with Wei Qia, who is always cooing.

Later, after getting to know Yuuri more and more, Amy deeply realized that, despite his childish appearance and gentle good temper, Yuuri is a firm and brave boy who has ideas in everything he does. He is considerate, careful, and emotional. , looks a little shy and introverted, but he is very decent in dealing with people and things, smart and kind, and has suffered a lot without losing his heart.

And Victor...has a good heart, but he hasn't been beaten by the society. It's a bit too natural. The biggest advantage is that he has a good face, but is Jadeite a group of bullies worse than Vicha?Look at that kid Anjie, who looks no worse than Vicha, how obedient and cowardly he is in front of Yuuri!

In addition, Survivors are not suitable to be friends with ordinary people, so forget it, it’s not a loss if Weicha can’t be friends with Yuuri, it’s also good for her to be friends with Yuuri, hehe.

While pinching the flesh on her waist, Amy murmured to the photo of Andre on the bedside: "Honey, it seems that those two children really have no fate, and the treatment of being friends with little angels can only be treated by me." It's exclusive."

On the morning of the day when he was about to leave Moscow for the competition in Japan, Yuuri made breakfast and cleaned the house again. After thinking about it in his heart, he made sure that Amy had got out of the shadow of Andre's departure, and that her mental and physical conditions were in good condition.

"Well, you can rest assured to go."

He dragged the trolley case out of the house.

Katharina, who had been waiting at the bottom of the stairs, waved to him: "Hi, are you ready to win the national championship?"

Yuuri gave her a high five: "Always be ready, Mama Cathy."

Because Zhu Ling is busy with affairs recently, she has no time to go to Japan with Yuuri this time, so Katharina will take him alone, and Yuuri will still be able to go back to Hasezu to reunite with his family for a week, and Katharina will return to Russia immediately after the game , I will not follow him to Hasezu, and when Yuuri wants to go back to Russia, Alexander will pick him up.

It's inconvenient to be a minor, Yuuri has to be accompanied by an adult when he boards the plane.

But this time when Yuuri and Katherina appeared in the field, they got more attention.

Most of them are of course Katharina. You must know that this is the only female athlete in the world who can jump quadruple jump. Even if she retires, she is still a living legend that no one can surpass for the time being. In the competitive circle that admires the strong Among them, such a big figure undoubtedly made everyone look at her with admiration.

As the only apprentice of the female czar, Little Pumpkin has of course attracted a lot of attention, and he has shown 3 different triple axels in competitions, as well as beautiful and stable jumps, so even if he was promoted to the rookie group in the first year, he would still He is generally regarded as the favorite to win the championship.

After the opening ceremony, after Yuuri drew the lottery, he heard another somewhat familiar shout.

"Hey Katsuki! Katsuki Yuuri!"

Yuuri turned his head and waved at the other party in surprise: "Ishimura-kun, long time no see."

Masahiro Ishimura ran up to him, took a breath, and stared at him hard: "Why didn't you tell me that you were promoted to the rookie group? Isn't it me and Yuji Hoshino competing in the children's group now? You are too Hurry up, let's run to compete with those big kids, is that okay?"

Yuuri scratched his cheek shyly: "Well, no problem, the coach said that my level is enough, and it doesn't make sense to stay in the children's group."

Kid Ishimura is also a figure skater in Kyushu. He is one year older than Yuuri. He was only promoted to the children's category last year. His strength is also considered good among his peers. He has mastered all the double jumps and a 3T. He is ambitious to beat him this year The identified strongest opponent, Katsuki Yuuri, and his old enemy Hoshino Yuji.

However, Ishimura has always been very friendly to Yuuri before, he would take the initiative to say hello to Yuuri, and cheer each other up with Yuuri before the game.

Originally, he entered the top three in the national competition last year, so he was naturally included as a seed player. He didn't need to participate in the regional competitions of the four countries. Only then did I know that Katsuki Yuuri, who he considered the strongest opponent, actually gave up his status as a seed player in the children's group, and went to participate in the rookie group competition of a higher age group, and released 3T and 3S in the competition And 3lo three triple axels!

他的节目里甚至还包括了3lo+2T+2T和3lo+3T、2A+3T等这些放在成年组女单赛事中都拿得出手的连跳。

It's only been a year, this guy's progress is too fast, right? !

Feeling that he has been dumped so much that he can only smell other people's exhaust, Shimura-kun, who can hardly even smell the exhaust, is very frustrated. Apart from the frustration, he also trains harder, and jumps out of the unstable 3S before the national competition.

This time he ran in front of Yuuri to fight the battle!

"Shengsheng, just wait for me. Although the number of triple axels I have mastered is not as good as yours, I will definitely be promoted to the rookie group next year. Let's compete again then!"

Yuuri nodded tepidly: "Well, okay, but I won't wait for you."

Shicun jumped: "You don't have to wait! I will catch up by myself!"

And Ishimura was not the first person to challenge him, afterward Hoshino Yuji from Nagoya also ran over to say hello to Yuuri.

"Yo, Shengsheng, I didn't expect you to enter the rookie group this year. I knew I would be promoted too. Come on, don't lose to others before I win you in the promotion group!"

How should I put it, Ishimura forget it, Yuuri is not very familiar with Hoshino-kun, he was a bit surprised that he suddenly ran over to talk, but he still replied friendly: "Well, Hoshino-kun, please do your best!"

Unknowingly, Yuuri, who has become No.1 among his peers, is surrounded by many young players who have competed together in the children's group before talking, and there are also players in the youth group who have already talked to Yuuri in the World Youth Championship. Contestant Tian waved to the kid to say cheers, encouraging him to win the championship with one breath.

Yuuri is a bit stiff, although he no longer has the problem of social fear, sometimes he is invited out to high-end restaurants by clients, he can be regarded as a child who has seen the world, and he can handle people and things decently, but he has never been a person before. The focus of the crowd, my God, I'm really not used to it.

It wasn't until he was leaving that Yuuri breathed a sigh of relief. Katharina, who came over after the interview, teased him: "Do you have the feeling of becoming a figure skating star in advance?"

Yuuri's black line: "No, you know that these people follow me because I'm your student, and I don't like being followed."

Katharina smiled lightly: "Don't say that, you also have a lot of young fans, I think those young contestants like you very much."

"After all, people always like to focus on the strongest in the crowd, especially in competitive sports."

Yuuri lowered his head and pressed his legs: "I don't think I'm the strongest. There are plenty of guys stronger than me. My goal is not to win those kids. If possible, I hope to win the youth group with an absolute advantage. Players in the adult group."

Katharina raised an eyebrow.

Although he is small and young, her son has finally got rid of the timid look in the past and dares to have greater ambitions.

This is what she is happy to see, and it is also the result of her intentional guidance all along.

That's right, that's it, little pumpkin, if you want to shine brighter before death comes, just go after higher goals, ambition is never a bad thing.

Here I want to say that Yuuri is participating in the rookie category (9-12 years old). From then on, he will prepare two programs (short program, free skating), and the scores will be compared with the youth category and the adult category. count together.

And the tournament party assigned the rookie group to Group A of the junior championship, and group A was also the first to play, followed by the youth group and the adult group.

[It is said that Ha Niu won the gold medal when he participated in the rookie group competition, but because his score was too high, he also ranked No. Daguai. 】

There is no competition on the first day of the full-day competition, and the main thing is to draw lots. The short program of women's singles starts on the second day, and it is the turn of men's singles on the third day.

That's right, because the scores are counted together, the competitions of different groups are also on the same day, but the young players in the rookie group and the youth group play first. The adult group competition is from 16:00 to 19:55. Most people That's when I bought the tickets, and the young contestants in the rookie group and senior group started to compete in the morning.

(Because I only found the time for the adult group of the All-Natural Championships, it is speculated that the children will play first, and the big players will compete later.)

Yuuri finally didn't get surrounded during the warm-up, after all, because he was a rookie who just joined the rookie group, surrounded by a group of unfamiliar big boys who were taller and older than him, and they weren't interested in hanging out with the kids strike up a conversation.

Little Pumpkin's luck in the lottery has been very dark, so he was the first to play as a matter of course. It wasn't until he took off his coat and walked out that there were whispers in the warm-up room.

"It's him, I didn't expect to enter the rookie group this year. See you, you were also promoted this year. Did he ignore people like this last year?"

"He doesn't care about people, but he is timid and shy. It is said that he cried when he played in the junior group competition. I was afraid to scare him so I didn't dare to talk to him, okay? Now there are only Ishimura and Hoshino and him It's time to talk."

"I've seen his "Ashidaka". The coach always said that he is super expressive and gliding, but I like his spin better. He can pull out Behrman, so soft! He looks so cute !"

"Are you a pervert? You are forbidden to talk to Shengsheng later."

Obviously, Katsuki's strength is not everywhere, and his appearance is not too ordinary. Indeed, as Katharina said, he is very popular among young players and has attracted much attention.

At this time, there are not many people in the stadium, which is a good thing for Yuuri, he has never been crazy, and he is more comfortable with fewer people.

Minako was also in the auditorium at this time, holding the cross-link and yelling at him: "Yuuri! Come on!"

Yuuri turned his head and waved to her with a smile, took a deep breath, took off his coat, and revealed Costen inside.

The top made of chiffon with white, gray and black gradients, and feathers on the shoulders and arms, Zhu Ling has good taste. After wearing the clothes she made, it will really give people the feeling of a fairy boy.

Katharina touched his earlobe, which was a silver earring that matched the shape, with a silver bird on it.

"The earrings won't fall off easily. Just jump with confidence. If you are not sure, use the low-altitude jump method. If you feel in good shape, jump higher. The arrangement of the short program is still the same, just follow the previous jump method."

As she spoke, she squatted down again and tightened the shoelaces for the kid before sending him into the ice rink.

I don’t know when, she has also changed from a player who was sent to the ice rink by the coach to a coach who sent the young players to the ice rink. At first, she would feel uncomfortable with the role change, but now she is also proud of her students , looking forward to him going higher.

According to the rules of the figure skating competition, the short program usually lasts for 2 minutes and 40 seconds (±10 seconds). There can be two single jumps and a group of continuous jumps, and there must be an A jump (Axel jump) in the single jump, and A set of consecutive steps, and there must be a jumping rotation, a group of joint rotations (the number of foot changes shall not exceed 1).

According to Katharina and Zhu Ling's high standards for Little Pumpkin, his program difficulty arrangement has always been done on the limit of his ability.

With the music of Rhododendron waltz, the child trotted on the ice for a few rock steps... The opening was a set of successive steps in line with the lively tune, and the upper limbs were matched with corresponding dance movements, gestures, and expressions, as if there was really a The little cuckoo came to dance on the ice, and the child's big round eyes looked left and right with curiosity, childish and cute.

This is also Zhu Ling's purpose in choosing this song for him - to show off her cuteness while she is cute, and make full use of her appearance advantage.

Well, the first jump is to turn three into 3lo+3T.

Yuuri thought silently in his heart, took a deep breath, jumped up, spun around, landed on the ice, jumped up again...

Katharina stood on the scene and nodded in relief. Yuuri chose the high jump style, which shows that he is very confident in himself, and he is very stable and light when landing and skating out of the ice.

The child's beautiful jump also drew applause from the venue. Masahiro Ishimura and Yuji Hoshino, the old rivals in the children's group, lay on the auditorium and opened their mouths wide in surprise.

Hoshino stared: "It's really a 3+3 jump. It's amazing. This is a jump that can be used in the adult group."

Shi Cun snorted, "He's really good at it."

After fully uniting the jump, the little cuckoo spun neatly in a butterfly-catching swallow style, and then transformed into a donut posture.

Because this action requires high flexibility and leg lines, people with not too long legs will feel like a "mini donut" when doing it, making their limbs stiff. Even if the action is completed, it will look very reluctant. .

Minako in the auditorium rubbed her chin and smiled proudly: "But my boy knows that he will definitely meet the requirements of a ballet dancer in the future from the proportions. There is nothing to say about flexibility. This movement is trivial to him. Wait a minute! 1. 2, 3, 4... More than 8 laps! The Yan-style spin is a difficult posture of raising a swallow, and there is also a change of blade, and later a donut posture...Level 4!"

Figure skating spins and footwork are divided into four levels. The higher the level, the more points. Although it is not easy to do full-level spins, Yuuri still completed this set of spins. In addition, the axis is stable and the speed is high. The style of the washing machine.

Compared with last year, he has improved not only in jumping, but also in spinning and sliding!

Afterwards, the child advanced to 2A again, and raised two little hands while jumping 2A, and then jumped 3S. After finishing all jumps, the last joint rotation began.

"Deathdrop jumps, crouching spins, small jumps, squatting spins, pancake stance, standard movements, turn SitSideways, middle stance, Behrman... It's done! Ah! Why is it crooked?"

Katherina stared closely at Yuuri's performance, becoming more and more dissatisfied.

As the queen of spinning, Katharina also has high requirements for Yuuri's spinning. This time, all the spinning movements for the choreography are full-level. Before, the children were spinning well. Unfortunately, Bellman staggered a bit after spinning. Obviously dizzy.

But Yuuri quickly adjusted himself, put on the closing pose, and received warm applause from the audience.

The kid knew something was wrong immediately after he staggered, and sure enough, Katharina caught him to start training after the game.

"I said that after the spin, you should immediately focus on standing still? What's going on with you? Why did my apprentice fail to stand firmly after spinning? Also, you performed very well in the first half, but In the second half of the show, the technical movements were all the focus, so the performance was negligent, right? I told you that performance points can’t be herding sheep, right?”

Yuuri retorted weakly: "I didn't herd the sheep, really, I just got a little dizzy afterwards."

"Even if you get dizzy, don't forget to perform! Figure skating is an art performance sport! The second half of the short program completely lost the lively and cute little cuckoo, and there was only a pumpkin jumping and circling. Forget it, It's not turning well balabala..."

The little pumpkin bowed its head listlessly to be scolded.

Everyone who saw this scene was ashamed, wait, Katsuki Yuuri's performance on the stage was undoubtedly very good, why did he have to be disciplined after the performance.

And Masahiro Shimura looked over there with black lines: "Speaking of which, he seemed to have been scolded last year too. How high is that livinglegend's demands on him?"

Anyway, that guy is only 9 years old, and the female czar is a bit too much!

Hoshino Yuji clenched his fists full of fighting spirit: "Maybe this is the secret of Katsuo's strength! I have to be stricter with myself!"

Because the little pumpkin was caught and scolded by Katharina after the competition, and was dragged to the audience by Minako after the score was awarded, so those little contestants who originally wanted to talk to Yuuri had to give up.

And Yuuri was busy being trained, and then his attention was all attracted by Minako, so he didn't notice how high his score was at all, and put a lot of pressure on the children after that, causing them to wrestle on the ice one after another , After the competition, he was trained worse than him.

After finishing the training, Little Pumpkin had a painful self-reflection, thinking that he was really too weak, and that after spinning, he would be dizzy and unable to stand still. It was really a shame for figure skaters. Try harder!

Only player Oda, who arrived at the venue early, stared at Yuuri's score and twitched the corner of his mouth, and said a prophetic word.

"Wait, this score is pretty good for the youth group, if the free skating doesn't crash...won't it?"

His prophecy really came true after Yuuri finished the free skate.

Perhaps it was a matter of luck that caused the players in the youth group to make mistakes of varying degrees on the field this year, either this Fubing or that Guozhou.

Or maybe it was because after Yuuri practiced 3lz, Katharina changed his free skating arrangement, so that his technical score was so high that it could be compared with the seniors in the youth group.

Or maybe Yuuri's performance in the free skating was better than the short program, and the judges gave him nice P points one after another.

Anyway, when the day's competition was over, everyone including Katharina found out embarrassingly that after Yuuri won the championship of the rookie group, he could still stand on the podium of All Day Youth.

His score ranked third in the all-day youth rankings.

Katharina was quite happy when she saw Yuuri won the championship, but when she found out that he won the all-day bronze medal, she was more speechless.

The little pumpkin stood on the All Ridge podium in a dazed and cute way, a head shorter than the two big brothers next to him, the picture seemed to be against harmony no matter how you looked at it.

The female tsar murmured: "Although I know that the men's singles figure skating is on the decline, is this too exaggerated? My pumpkin can actually be ranked in the top three in the youth group."

Minako patted her on the shoulder beside her: "Actually, you can think positively. Yuuri can take the third place in the All-National Youth because of your good teaching."

Katharina covered her face: "But this is too unexpected!"

She originally thought that she might not be able to see Yuuri on the podium of the youth group until she died (after all, she must have been gone when Yuuri could enter the youth group), this moment came too unexpectedly Hey!

Little did he know that Yuuri was also shocked, he stood on the podium blankly, the champion Oda patted him on the shoulder and let out a long sigh.

"Although I knew for a long time that Katsuo-kun would stand on the podium with me one day, but this day came so early, it was beyond my expectation. I thought it would not happen until we all entered the adult group. "

Yuuri replied dryly: "Actually... I didn't expect to say that either."

In short, this season of Yuuri is also over, he took home another championship award, an all-day young bronze medal, and by the way, he was named a figure skating prodigy by the Japanese media.

But God knows, after the competition, Little Pumpkin still felt that she had failed this time, and Katharina didn't say anything, but just increased the intensity of training for Yuuri.

Right now, she is not expecting much from the gold content of the Japanese figure skating competition. It is nothing to win the championship and the bronze medal. This kid still has a mountain of homework to do!

And since the Japanese men's singles figure skating has reached this level, if she trains this kid hard, maybe she can get a few more medals from the youth competition before she dies?

The author has something to say:

Because there really are big bosses who can be on the All-Nippon Youth podium in the rookie group, so here is Yuuri also on the stage. Originally, the difficulty of his program was really not bad in 01, and it is more than enough to enter the youth group. If the women's singles players in 01 had the reserve for jumping difficulty, and no matter how strong their expressiveness, skating and spinning were, they would be able to win gold in category A events.

It's a pity that in the eyes of the female tsarist, her family's melons are still poor, and Mr. Gua himself was led astray by her, thinking that he was a rookie. Both the master and the apprentice ignored Quan Riqing's bronze medal and blamed it on The gold content of the All-Day Youth Competition is not high, and the relationship between other players is better.

Maybe when Victor points at Yuuri and asks in grief and indignation, "Why did you lie to me that you are mediocre", Yuuri can recall it.
