[Net King] The continuation of the dream

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the course ends, and it is time for club activities, and it is also the beginning of another training session for the tennis club.After the warm-up, start training on basic skills such as racket swing, hitting the ball against the wall, and basic footwork.

"Senior Higurashi, can I be in a group with you?"

The person who asked this question was Caojian Hexi, a first-year freshman who joined the tennis club two days later than most of the members and joined the tennis club on the same day as Higurashi Yukiri. At first glance, he was a shy guy, and he could basically tell from his accent. He also came from Kansai, but unlike Higumi, he is probably not from Kyoto, but from Kobe.

"Then I will trouble Mr. Cao Jian for your advice." Ri Mu Xi Wu accepted the invitation with a light smile.

According to the instructions of the deputy director who was supervising at the side, the team members practiced freely in combination.Although the practice is in the form of a two-person confrontation, because it is not a competition, there will be no scoring or anything.

The yellow ball hit the ground heavily like a cannonball, but unfortunately it went out of bounds.

The first-year student was ashamed: "Yes, I'm sorry..."

"Is Mr. Cao Jian particularly outstanding in terms of strength?" Ri Mu Xi Wu said unhurriedly, "For that ball just now, if you lowered your wrist a little while swinging the racket and controlled the strength by a point or two, maybe not only would you not be able to hit the ball. Out of bounds, I think it may not be easy to catch it... I wonder if Mr. Grasshopper can play that ball again, I am a little curious."

Cao Jian and Xi were stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously to meet the senior's gentle eyes with some expectations: "Yes, of course."

When the annual man used that move again, he subconsciously obeyed Higurashi Yogiri’s suggestion of controlling his strength and lowering his wrist. In the end, it turned out that the completed effect was quite beautiful... Although the opponent still hit the ball back, he still let him I'm very excited - if it can be perfected, maybe this trick can become a killer weapon.

"Yukimura, you care about Higurashi-kun." Liu Lian'er said firmly.

"How to say?"

"You've been watching him since he started training."

Yukimura Seichi smiled: "So, Liu also cares about me, it's really touching."

Liu Lian'er was silent, turning his eyes to the young man from Kyoto who was training against the first-year student, and then said after a while: "It seems that this year, our team will grow a lot... Higurashi-kun has a very solid foundation and excellent understanding, but he lacks Practice, as well as game experience, still needs to go further."

Yukimura Seichi said lightly: "Hi Mu Xi Wu needs to go far more than one step. With his potential and aptitude, the current level is a bit too ugly." He directly ordered, "Liu, make a training plan for him. Plan...to add his name to next week's intramural practice."

"Yukimura is very optimistic about him."

Seiichi Yukimura folded his arms in front of him and watched the practice on the court.

"The practice between him and Mr. Grasshopper is not so much a confrontation as he is teaching each other. This kind of practice, Mr. Grasshopper will gain a lot, and it will not help him much."

"The gap is too big." Liu Lianer nodded in agreement, "With Higurashi-kun's guidance, Cao Jian-kun's tennis has gradually become stable from the beginning of aimlessness, and he himself has not noticed this... and intelligence As I said in the book, Higurashi-kun is really a very considerate person."

"Perhaps Higurashi-kun is used to being a training partner for others," Seiichi Yukimura smiled slightly. "Such a habit is not suitable for an athlete who is about to play. Tennis never requires consideration."

"So next week's practice match, Yukimura, are you ready to play?"

"This time Liu's data is wrong." Yukimura Seichi said with a smile, and his tone changed, "I never planned to guide him personally."

At this moment, Liu Renji couldn't guess the other party's thoughts, and her drooping eyelids moved slightly—it seemed that Yukimura had changed somewhere.

The duel between Sunset and Xiwu and the first-year students is still going on.

Cao Jian and Xi ran back and forth on the field, seeing the small yellow ball draw an arc, he leapt forward, stretching out his racket to try to stop the tennis ball... Unfortunately, it was still a little bit short.

"Senior, come again!"

The first-year boy bent his knees slightly, held the racket with both hands, his chest rose and fell violently, and his panting statement seemed to be heard by people halfway across the tennis court.

Sunset and Xiwu lightly hooked the line with his fingers, silently looking at the unyielding first-year student opposite him who never gave up...

Pick up another tennis ball in your left hand.

While swinging the racket, he inexplicably remembered the question Yukimura Seichi asked him when handing in the association application form: How could he make up his mind immediately after changing his previous hesitation and uncertainty?

The reason for tennis itself was not primarily - at least at the time - but rather the...

"Probably touched, and a little curious," Higurashi Yugiri replied to Yukimura Seiichi in this way, "I want to understand the spirit that makes people shine...maybe there may be some impulsiveness, and suddenly I want to participate in it, and I hope to witness everything that is unknown behind the opened door.”

Perhaps, unscrupulous laughter and hearty crying, these do not belong to the sunset and evening fog.

But in the same way, when there is a desire in the heart, Sunset and Evening Mist will never go against his wishes.

"what--"

After a long time of tug-of-war, the exhausted annual roared and leaped vigorously, finally caught the tennis ball with his waving racket, and slammed it vigorously towards the opposite court.

Sunset and Xiwu didn't move, and held up the racket for a backhand.

The tennis ball rolled to the ground, and several tennis racket strings broke.

Sunset and Xiwu touched the string that seemed to be heating up, walked to the net, and stretched out his hand to the exhausted first-year student who was half lying on the ground.

"Thank you," Cao Jian and Xi, who had breathed a sigh of relief, stood up as they were pulled by the senior's hand, "Thank you, senior."

Ri Mu Xi Wu raised the corners of his mouth, "Thank you Cao Jian-jun for your advice just now," holding a tennis racket in the other hand and raised it in front of the opponent, "You have so much strength, you can't even stand the racket line."

Cao Jian and Xi, who originally felt inferior to their seniors, were taken aback, the loss in their hearts disappeared without a trace, replaced by embarrassment: "I'm sorry, senior."

Sunset and Xiwu chuckled: "Mr. Cao Jian doesn't need to apologize. I didn't know how to break your moves at the moment, so I had to take the racket to block it in a hurry... It seems that I have to prepare another racket, which will be specially used for fighting with you in the future." A strong player like Cao Jian-kun competes."

After hearing this, Cao Jian and Xi patted their heads shyly...

"Isn't Higurashi-kun home yet?"

"Fortunate... oh, sorry," Higurashi Yugiri changed his words, "Minister." Looking at Genichiro Sanada who was standing behind Yukimura Seiichi, "Deputy Minister."

"It's fine to call by name directly outside of club activities."

Ri Mu Xiwu nodded to express his understanding, and turned to answer the other party's question: "It's getting dark, I'm waiting for my sister to go back together."

"I see," Seiichi Yukimura mused, "Then, the women's tennis training is even tighter than the men's tennis. Are we too lax, eh, Sanada?"

Sanada lowered his head slightly, but did not reply.

Sunset and Xiwu explained in a warm voice: "Actually, my sister-in-law was not so late two days ago, and I can't tell if something delayed me today."

"Eh? Is Higurashi-kun trying to comfort me by saying that?"

Higurashi and Xiwu thought about it, and replied: "It seems that there is no place to comfort Yukimura-kun, I'm really sorry!"

"Cough," Yukimura Seiki said with a smile on his face, "No matter who Higurashi-kun is, he is so serious. In this respect, he is surprisingly similar to Sanada!"

"Is that so?" Nigiri was slightly startled, looking at Sanada whose face was half covered by the brim of his hat, "But in order to be 'unrelenting' in many aspects, I have to work harder. "

Sanada raised his left hand, pressed the brim of his hat, and pressed it lower.

Yukimura Seichi laughed, looking very happy, and covered his mouth with his fist: "I'm sorry... I just think Higurashi-kun's serious explanation is a little cute."

"Ah." This was the reaction when Sunset and Xiwu didn't know how to answer.

——Although I think "cute" is not suitable to describe boys, but... After all, Yukimura-kun is complimenting, so it seems that it is not appropriate to say it.
