Iris Wisdom Teeth

Said: "I don't seem to have it. Every game is full of excitement and never nervous." 』

"Hmph." Senior Fuji knew it well but loved talking nonsense, Echizen snorted, "Nervousness or something will only hinder body movements."

"The little prince is so handsome! 』

With such an exaggerated voice, there is no feeling of being praised at all.The hair on Yue's forehead tightened: "Senior, do you have anything else to say?"

If not, he would really consider hanging up the phone. There is a game tomorrow, and he needs to get a good night's sleep today.

"Ryoma. ’Fuer stopped joking, and whispered sincerely: ‘I will always be there, always, so you don’t need to feel any uneasiness, just call at ease. 』

I didn't expect the other party to say such emotional words suddenly, which made him a mistake.

Echizen was silent for a while, adjusted his mood before speaking.

"...You said that."

That's what Buer said to himself when they were playing tennis together on the street in England and were interrupted by reporters.

I think I didn't understand at all at the time, I just felt that Buer was fooling him, but now... well, I probably understand it.

"Ha ha. 』

Listening to Bu Er's shallow laughter, it seems that the other party has not forgotten what happened at that time. In fact, it has only been half a year since now. This half year is not long or short, but it has changed a lot, especially the relationship between them. relationship between.

"Come on, come back with another trophy!" 』

The corner of Echizen's mouth curled up into a smile, and said as a matter of course, "I don't want ordinary people, I only want to take the championship trophy."

In the end, the phone call ended with laughter from both of them.

He has already crossed the sea, and there is no reason to lose.

In the subsequent games, Echizen, who was in particularly good condition, would naturally win the championship. Such a result is reasonable for him, but it is another topic for the tennis world.

Among the four Grand Slams, only the last U.S. Open is lacking. In such a young age, the results are so impressive that it has attracted much attention.

And the reporters also rushed up to him after the game, asking nothing more than his impressions and whether he was planning to participate in the U.S. Open at the end of September this year...

He was not interested in answering these chattering topics one by one, and left them all to poor Sato's manager to deal with, and he wanted to show off his achievements with Fuji.

Holding the mobile phone in his hand, he considered whether to make a call or send a text message. After thinking about it for a while, he still felt that he wanted to hear the other party's voice.

Dial Buer's number and wait for the other party to pick it up.

The joyful heart followed the beeping sound of the phone call until I heard the electronic voice saying "Your call will be transferred to voicemail".

Echizen was stunned for a while, then remembered that the phone had been ringing for too long and no one answered it, and it would be transferred to voicemail...

He has almost never encountered such a situation. In the past, as long as he called Buer, Buer would almost always answer the phone within three rings.

Maybe at work?

Echizen didn't think too much, after hearing the electronic voice say "please leave a message after the beep", he simply left a few words about his victory.

I don't know when Senior Fuji will hear it?To win another championship... Ah, I should have known what I should bet with my seniors before the competition!

Forget it, it doesn't matter, I will definitely call after hearing my message, and then ask him for something as a reward.

Back in the car, ready to return to the hotel in France, Echizen was still in a great mood, leaning against the car window, humming lightly, flipping through his birthday present──Iris album.

The manager was driving the car, and took a peek at Echizen from the rearview mirror.

It's really rare to see the little ancestor in such a good mood. If outsiders see it, they will probably think it is the French Open championship, but his manager's eyes are bright.

For the little ancestor, whether he has the championship trophy is irrelevant, and the only person who can make this proud little ancestor feel ups and downs is his "predecessor".

I am getting more and more curious about that "senior". Now that the little ancestor is in a good mood, he should be able to make some words.

The manager coughed twice, successfully attracting the attention of the back seat.

"That little ancestor, that senior of yours..."

A senior, Echizen glanced over: "By the way, I just thought of asking you something."

"Um?"

Echizen asked, "Do you know Shusuke Fuji?"

The manager was stunned. It seemed that he had seen the name in a magazine before, but that was all.

"do not know."

"Then who hired you to be my manager?"

"I was directly ordered by the company, but I heard that a man who claimed to be Mr. F came to look for me." The agent replied honestly.

Echizen raised the corner of his mouth: "Mr. F?"

What a boring joke, turn to the last page of the album, and there is an "F" signed on it.

The agent thought about it for a while, only to realize that "Fu Er" begins with "F"!

That's it, that's it!The agent nodded with a smile.

"Little ancestor, how are you and your senior doing?" The agent asked with a smile on his face, "Have you already dated? It's nice to be young."

Echizen, who was still immersed in his own thoughts, was taken aback by this sudden question and almost jumped up from the chair, but fortunately he didn't jump up, it must be very uncomfortable to hit his head on the roof of the car.

"You, you, you..." Echizen stammered a little, his face turned red from embarrassment to anger: "No!"

"Eh? Haven't dated yet?"

"It's none of your business!"

"Little ancestor, if you like someone, you should confess quickly."

When he raised his foot and was about to kick the opponent's chair, he froze uncomfortably when he heard this, and his original anger turned into hesitation.

"Confession..."

It seems that this little ancestor's emotional intelligence is really not high, and the manager is a good person, acting as a love consultant: "Yeah, hasn't the little ancestor thought of expressing his heart to the other party?"

"I, of course I have thought about it...just..." Echizen retorted excitedly, then fell silent for a while, pulled down the brim of his hat, and muttered: "I can't find a chance..."

"It's important to confirm the relationship as soon as possible, to prevent the other party from being snatched away by others."

"..." Echizen glared at the other party, seeing that although the other party was smiling but did not mean to laugh, his tense attitude relaxed a bit.

Echizen said lightly, "He and I are both men."

"I know." Already knew.

"Don't you think it's... weird?"

After hesitating for a while, I chose a more euphemistic way of saying it. Although Echizen Ryoma has always been arrogant and solitary and never paid attention to external eyes, he is an adult after all, and he still has scruples in many worldly aspects. The word "disgusting" He couldn't ask.

"Nowadays society is so open, there are a lot of BL around, and rotten girls are running all over the street, it's not surprising at all." The manager joked of course: "If my little ancestor gets back together with your seniors in the future, maybe the female fans will still be there. Explosion!"

Hearing this, Echizen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect to get such an answer...

The corner of his mouth hooked up: "Well, you have been my manager until now, and I am finally satisfied."

It was rare to receive praise from the little ancestor, and when the manager was about to wipe away his tears, Echizen added, "But there is still a long way to go."

"..." The manager burst into tears.

Tooth 21

It was the end of July when I returned to the UK.

There are still two months before the U.S. national team. Although this time is not short, but this year has already decided to win four Grand Slams. During this period, Echizen has been concentrating on practicing every day.

Remembering that he only won second place last year and lost to a very good American man, he was very unwilling. Maybe he will meet again in this competition, and he will not lose again.

Think about it carefully, another year has passed, what were you doing at this time last year?Ah, it seems that I just had a wisdom tooth...

Thinking of this tooth by chance, I licked it lightly with the tip of my tongue, but didn't feel any discomfort.

When the tooth came out, all kinds of discomfort made him very irritable, but now he gets along with the tooth peacefully.

After all, he is completely used to this existence. If he is gone one day, he will feel something is wrong... I always feel that this is very similar to Fuji-senpai.

They are all used to it.

On the way back to the apartment after practice, I happened to pass by a bookstore on the way. For a moment, I thought of Fuji's album as if a new volume was released the day before yesterday...

Echizen turned around and went into the store, without looking at other bookcases, went directly to the bookshelf where the albums were placed, glanced at it, and soon found the unique new album, picked up one, and rolled his eyes again After looking around, I still haven't seen the photo album of Iris.

Every time I look for it, I can't find it. Echizen is no surprise.

But after so long, he still didn't have any. He was a little puzzled, he should really ask Senior Fuji next time.

Picking up a new photo album to check out, one inadvertently noticed a book on the next shelf.

The book is full of pink and sweet, this kind of book that only girls would be interested in... He must have dismissed it before.

In the past...

"..."

After a brief hesitation, I finally took the book with some shame and went to check out together.

"Oh, thisperson recently famoustoo! (Oh, this person is very famous recently!)"

At the checkout, Echizen, who just wanted to leave quickly, lowered his head, but heard the sudden exclamation of the clerk who was swiping the barcode with a book.

famous?famous……?

Echizen was stunned, looked up, and noticed that the other party was holding an album in his hand, so what he said must mean the same thing.

When some people wanted to interrogate, they found that there were already people waiting in line behind them to pay the bill. After thinking about it, they decided to give up.
