Escape From the Library

【School Games-10】

The next day, after breakfast, Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce came to the library shopping center together and bought two pairs of badminton rackets.Since the gymnastics and cycling competitions were arranged from 8 to 10 in the morning, the two of them did not report for these events, so they could seize the time to practice badminton doubles.

To practice doubles, you have to find two opponents as sparring partners.Yue Xingwen glanced at the registration form Ke Shaobin sent to his teammates, and asked in the research group channel: "Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Zhuo, you have all signed up for the badminton singles competition, right?"

Liu Zhaoqing said: "That's right."

Zhuo Feng said: "Does Xingwen want to go to the training room to practice?"

Yue Xingwen said: "I played doubles with Ping Cebao. I just went to the shopping mall to buy a racket. If the two brothers are free, let's practice together. It's just to find the feel."

Ke Shaobin said positively: "Can I come and watch? I'll take pictures for you!"

Yue Xingwen: "Welcome to watch."

The result is... the whole team came to watch.

Everyone opened a training room. Yue Xingwen drew four lines in the training room according to the size of the badminton court. Liu Zhaoqing made a net out of gauze and stood in the middle of the court.

Ke Shaobin asked Xiaotu to be the referee at the edge of the net.

Yue Xingwen exercised his muscles and bones, picked up the badminton racket, and said, "Look for the feel, 2V2."

Liu Zhaoqing joked: "2V2? Our two super soldiers will definitely not be able to beat the two bosses. Jiang Pingce's coordinate system will make the ball we serve go out of bounds every time, and then we will not get a point!"

Jiang Pingce looked calm, as if the person Brother Liu said had nothing to do with him.

Zhuo Feng suggested: "Can you two not use skills? Let's just play a ball and try?"

Yue Xingwen readily agreed: "No problem. Pince's coordinate system also has a cooling time, and it is impossible to use it from beginning to end. Let's not use skills first, and practice coordination. The two brothers are also looking for the feel of playing."

Liu Zhaoqing made an OK gesture, looked at Zhuo Feng, and said with a smile: "If you don't need skills, I think we both have a chance to win!" He has played badminton for several years and is very confident in his skills.

Zhuo Feng was equally confident: "Come on! You guys serve first."

Yue Xingwen looked back at Jiang Pingce, Jiang Pingce leaned into Yue Xingwen's ear and said a few words, but no one heard what he was saying, only Yue Xingwen nodded with a smile, and then, the two Standing staggeredly on the field, one in front and one behind, Yue Xingwen is in front, Jiang Pingce is behind, and Yue Xingwen serves first.

Yue Xingwen's playing posture is very standard, and he sent a forehand ball.

The ball landed very far, almost to the sideline of the opposite field.Liu Zhaoqing stepped back quickly to catch the ball. Because the landing point was too far away, Liu Zhaoqing caught the ball with great force, and the ball flew high in the sky.

At the moment when the ball passed the net, Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce quickly exchanged positions. Jiang Pingce rushed forward, jumped up suddenly, stretched out his long arms, and the racket in his hand completed a clean sweep in the air. A neat smash——

boom!The sound of the shuttlecock and racket contacting is crisp and pleasant.

This sudden oblique smash, the angle is too tricky, it is too late for Zhuo Feng to catch the ball!

The ball landed almost instantly, and Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce scored 1 point.

Ke Shaobin patted Xiaotu's forehead to let Xiaotu score points, and Xiaotu's mechanical voice sounded: "Red team, get 1 point."

Liu Zhaoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Is the start so fierce?"

Zhuo Feng looked back at him and said: "The two juniors are serious, and we should be more serious as the training partner."

Liu Zhaoqing: "That must be done!"

In the next practice, all four of them got serious and played back and forth.

However, while playing, Liu Zhaoqing unexpectedly discovered that the score on Xiaotu's forehead was getting wider and wider. In a blink of an eye, it became 20:15, and he was 5 points behind Zhuo Feng!

In the game point of the first game, it was Jiang Pingce's turn to serve.

Jiang Pingce's ball landed near Zhuo Feng in the front court, with a low angle and close to the net.If you want to catch this kind of ball, you must pick it up with the racket, otherwise you will miss the net.As a result of picking up, the badminton flew high into the sky, Yue Xingwen immediately took a step forward, took off near the net, and sent the opponent away with a smash in the middle!

Small picture: "In the first game, 21:15, the red team won!"

Zhuo Feng and Liu Zhaoqing looked at each other.

Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other with a smile, and lightly clapped their hands to encourage each other.

Teammates watching the battle: "..."

Is it really their first time together?Isn't it a tacit partner who has practiced for a long time?

Liu Zhaoqing couldn't help complaining: "Do you two often play together in private? This tacit understanding is amazing!"

Yue Xingwen smiled and said, "No, today is really the first time we cooperate."

Liu Zhaoqing: "..."

Teammates: "??"

This is called the first cooperation?The cooperation between you two is almost perfect, okay?

The two stood in staggered positions on the court, one front and one back, one left and one right. During the fast running process, the two never collided with each other, let alone an own goal where they rushed to catch the same ball .

There seems to be a strange "heart-to-heart" tacit understanding between them.

Yue Xingwen knows what Jiang Pingce will do next moment, and Jiang Pingce also knows where Yue Xingwen is on the court.Yue Xingwen thought that Jiang Pingce would catch the ball, but it turned out that Jiang Pingce would really catch it.And Jiang Pingce thinks that Yue Xingwen can handle the ball, and he will not intervene.Sometimes it's just a gesture, most of the time it's just a look.

They always trust each other and understand each other, which is the key reason why they are not as good as Liu Zhaoqing and Zhuo Feng in singles, but they can beat the opponent's combination in doubles.

Zhuo Feng asked suspiciously, "I haven't seen you two playing ball, when did you learn it?"

Yue Xingwen said: "Ping Ce knew how to play before, I should have learned it from his father. I only learned it in my freshman year. Brother, you don't know, I enrolled in the badminton class as an elective course in my freshman year."

Jiang Pingce glanced at Yue Xingwen in surprise, opened his mouth, and stopped talking.

Yue Xingwen gave him a smile.

Soon the second game started.

In this round, Zhuo Feng suggested using skills, but Jiang Pingce didn't show politeness to them.

Zhuo Feng's skill "Gravity" can make the ball fall to the ground instantly, and Jiang Pingce's coordinate system parabola can control the ball's landing point. The two sides have come and gone, and the score has been tied from 3:3 to 17:17.

Yue Xingwen found that the formula of the mathematics department would be difficult to control the effect of gravity. After all, it takes time to write the formula, but gravity acts instantly to make the ball land directly, and the landing speed is extremely fast, so it is difficult to catch it with a racket.

Facing the gravity of Senior Brother Zhuo alone, they can still draw.But in the next doubles match, if they meet the "two physics department" partners, it will be very difficult.

In this game, the two narrowly lost to their opponents at 19:21.

Yue Xingwen summed up his experience, and whispered in Jiang Pingce's ear: "If the opponent is two physics departments, and they use gravity skills in turn to make the ball hit the ground instantly, we won't be able to catch the ball at all. Is there any way to restrain it?"

Jiang Pingce frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Change the ball's movement curve and let the ball fall on their side."

Yue Xingwen's eyes lit up: "Good way!"

The badminton is flying in the air, and the premise of the gravity of the physics department is that the ball flies over the net. When it comes to the half court between Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce, if the two of them fall to the ground in an instant, they will lose points.

However, if Jiang Pingce changed its trajectory at the moment the ball flew into the air, so that its parabolic landing point was in the opponent's half court, and the opponent let the ball land, it would become "hitting the ball but not the net", and it would be lost instead. point.

Jiang Pingce added: "When the opponent serves, I change the trajectory of the ball so that they can't hit the net, and gravity will be useless. When it's our turn to serve, we must be fast so that the opponent cannot react."

Gravity skills also need to be manipulated. If they serve the ball in a flash, the opponent will have no time to use the skills.Of course, if the opponent also uses this method, Jiang Pingce may not have time to write the formula.At that time, it will depend on who serves more accurately, or how hard it is to play the ball.

The two got together to discuss for a while, then smiled at each other, clapped their hands together, and started the third round.

Liu Zhaoqing and Zhuo Feng experienced what it means to "want to cry but have no tears".

Five out of 10 of the balls served by the two were rerouted by Jiang Pingce, and they never served the net.However, Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen served the ball as fast as lightning. Often, before Zhuo Feng had time to release his skills, the ball would have passed, and he had to run to catch it. After finally catching it, Jiang Pingce would score with a smash.

After Zhuo Feng discovered that the opponent adopted the fast attack method, he also started to attack quickly, but the result of the two sides fighting together was that no one could use their skills and could only rely on hard strength to catch the ball. The strength of the two was sufficient, but they had a tacit understanding It's really not as good as the Jiangyue combination.

At 21:13 in the third game, Yuexing Wenjiang Pingce won a big victory.

Zhuo Feng sat beside him, panting and said, "You two have such a high degree of tacit understanding, plus Pintse's ability to control the ball, badminton doubles, you will definitely get a medal back."

Yue Xingwen said modestly: "If we encounter a control team, for example, the law school locks us up with a prison, the music school hypnotizes us, and the Normal University double team makes us stand for playing ball and giving lectures, we will also have a hard time playing. "

Jiang Pingce said lightly: "It doesn't matter whether you win the prize or not, just do your best."

Liu Zhaoqing said: "However, there must be a lot of people signing up for such a popular event as badminton. If a duo wants to break out of the preliminaries, it is not enough to use their own strength and tacit understanding. After all, abilities have Cooldown time, if you use it in the first round, you can’t continue to use it in the second round. Therefore, I am quite optimistic about the two of you. You both have strong strength and tacit understanding, unless you meet a team that specializes in badminton in a sports school. I think there is no problem with the team."

Yue Xingwen looked at Jiang Pingce, and said with a smile: "When we meet a team of average strength, we will fight as usual. When we meet a tough bone, we will use our skills?"

Jiang Pingce nodded in agreement.

After coming out of the training room, the two returned to the dormitory to put down their rackets and rest for a while.

Yue Xingwen picked up the towel and wiped his sweat, and said, "Do you have anything to ask me?"

Jiang Pingce really asked in a low voice: "Since we met, we have often gone to the library together, but we have never played together. When Brother Zhuo asked just now, how did you know that I can play badminton, or learned from my father?"

Yue Xingwen paused, and said with a smile: "It's a long story."

Jiang Pingce turned around and sat beside him, and said in a low voice, "Speak."

Yue Xingwen said frankly: "In high school, our school's honor roll, every time our names were tied for the first place. But in the third year of high school, there was a monthly exam, and your name was not in the top ten of the science class. I thought, it is impossible for your grades to drop so sharply suddenly, and I was curious to inquire about it, only to find out that you were sick and did not take that exam."

"When school was over the next day, I passed by your house and saw you and your dad playing ball in the yard. Your dad said while playing, 'You should pay attention to exercise when you are young, exercise more, don't just focus on doing problems all day long'... ..."

Thinking of that scene, Yue Xingwen couldn't help but chuckled: "You put on a face that no strangers should enter all day long at school, but I didn't expect your father to be such a chatterbox, nagging so much in your ear, You are not too annoying, and you continue to practice with him. I found that you are very gentle with your family, which is completely different from you in front of your classmates."

Jiang Pingce was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised the corners of his lips slightly, and asked, "If I remember correctly, your house is two streets away from my house, and your house is closer to the school. You can't stop by my house after school, right?" ? It's going to be a long way around."

Yue Xingwen: "..."

Jiang Pingce's ability to grasp key points is indeed very strong, and it is impossible to fool him.

Yue Xingwen was a little embarrassed, lowered his head and his cheeks were slightly hot: "Well, I didn't go along the way. I just heard that you were sick and didn't take the exam. I was worried that you were seriously ill, so I went to your house to take a look."

So, is Xingwen also silently watching him?Because he was sick, why did you go to visit him?

Jiang Pingce thought of the scene of Xingwen walking past his house in school uniform and carrying a schoolbag, and his heart suddenly softened. He looked at Yue Xingwen with a particularly soft gaze, and his voice was very low: "Come to my house secretly, Why didn't you tell me?"

Yue Xingwen smiled and said: "At that time, we were just schoolmates, not friends. It would be too strange if I broke into your house suddenly? Seeing that you recovered from your illness and can still play with your father, I am relieved Yes. Pretend to pass by, you didn't find me the best!"

Jiang Pingce: "..."

Seeing his frank smile, Jiang Pingce's heart moved, and he suddenly asked: "When you were a freshman, you took the badminton class as an elective course. Could it be because of me?"

Why not learn table tennis, basketball, and volleyball, but badminton is the only ball game Jiang Pingce knows?

coincide?He doesn't believe it.

Yue Xingwen said frankly: "Of course! Because you can play badminton, I also want to learn it, so that we can have an additional hobby in common. Unfortunately, in the freshman year, the elective course of badminton was too difficult to grab. Yes, I just grabbed it in my sophomore year, and it wasn’t long after I finished studying, so I didn’t expect to be able to use it this time.”

Yue Xingwen raised his head, meeting Jiang Pingce's gentle eyes.

His ears suddenly felt hot.He thought it was nothing at first, but when Jiang Pingce looked at him so tenderly, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "I'm not all for you, it's better to pass the badminton elective exam, and you can also exercise by the way..."

Jiang Pingce stretched out his hand and lightly embraced Yue Xingwen's shoulder: "No need to explain, I understand."

Yue Xingwen: "..."

I don't understand myself, how did you understand? !

Looking at Yue Xingwen's puzzled eyes, Jiang Pingce suddenly felt very good.

Originally, he thought that Xingwen was a treasure hidden in his heart. This pure love from childhood was the most precious and most important emotion in his life. He didn't have to say it out to let the other party know that it would destroy the happiness of the two. Relationship.

But now it seems that Xingwen actually keeps him in his heart and treasures it.

He would secretly care about him, and "pretend to pass by" to see him because he was sick; he joined the student union in freshman year and insisted on dragging him with him; in sophomore year, he took badminton elective courses for him, just to share common hobbies with him.

Their care and concern for each other is not one-sided—it is two-way.

There is nothing more gratifying than "giving back".
