23.
Nanako watched the game as a bystander, but she couldn't see anything.But if you get close to Liu, you can hear the data he collected and the thoughts of the knowledgeable people around you.
Anyway, Nanako heard that Liu was giving extra training to the members for various reasons.
"I'm going to Ice Emperor in two days, do you want me to visit Ice Emperor's tennis club?"
Liu quickly turned his head, and Nanako keenly sensed the gossip that Liu didn't ask: "Why are you going to keep it a secret?"
So Liu said slowly: "Then go and see if there are any first-year candidates."
Then Nanako heard Liu Ren's second chanting like sutras: "If it's Yagyu, the person you know should be Ninzu or Atobe, and next Friday will be the school festival of Hyotei...you don't want to go Give Atobe a platform? Or dance with Shinobu or something?"
——This man is terrifying!
Nanako Yagyu gave Liu a look of horror and disgust, and was going to go around the small kelp group that survived safely by intuition.
Liu proudly took out his notebook.
24.
The state of the small kelp is not right.
He even trembled a little, short of breath.Nanako Yagyu originally wanted to rub his cute little curly hair, but when she saw this, she quietly backed away.
She had no choice but to go to her brother, trying to understand the current situation of the tennis club with him. Brother Clinker and Nioh were leaning against each other, standing by the net with their arms folded, taking a deep breath.
Finally, Nanako came to Yukimura-kun's side.
——As expected of Yukimura-kun, the smile and the slightly fluttering jacket on his shoulders are very stable!
"Don't worry about Yagyu-san, everyone is just too nervous." Seiichi Yukimura wore a sweat-absorbing headband, looking more energetic and aggressive than usual: "A few seniors from the third grade of junior high school have quit the company, and there are no seats for the main election Two came out, and everyone mustered their energy."
"Yeah." The atmosphere was not as good as it is now when the delicious food was shared, Nanako found that no matter how relaxed the boys were, the tension and concentration in the air could hardly be concealed.
"I heard that Yagyu-san is going to the ice emperor's school festival?"
Nanako Yagyu complained softly, "Why do you know everything?"
Yukimura Seichi laughed: "Hyotei's school festival, the Rikkai team will also go."
Eh--?
25.
Forgive Nanako Yagyu for her poor eyesight, but she really couldn't understand why they applauded. It was often when a member of the team hit a very good shot, there was cheering in a low voice, and only Nanako Yagyu was looking for the ball.
Fortunately, Liu Renji is a good person, and he endured the humiliation to popularize the most basic tennis knowledge to Nanako.
"Let me tell you, the manager of the tennis department doesn't understand tennis, and he doesn't have any kingly demeanor." Liu said helplessly. He wanted to start popularizing "tennis is a score system", and he felt resentment in his heart.
Nanako complained in a low voice: "I didn't like tennis before."
"That's why it's strange that the manager of the tennis department doesn't like tennis!" Liu took out his notebook to write and draw on it. If you are prepared, you will steal secrets in one jump.
Liu was tall and tall, and Nanako couldn't see anything when she buttoned her notebook.He looked at Nanako with a half-smile, and Nanako coaxed her immediately. She smiled sweetly: "If I want to be the manager of the tennis department, I just need to like you guys."
Liu didn't speak, just opened his notebook and remembered something solemnly.
The ears are red.
26.
Xiao Haidai won the first game against a sophomore in high school, firing the first shot of "defeating the Big Three".
Nanako was the most face-saving, she clapped and clapped: "That's amazing! Although I can't understand it, Kirihara-kun is awesome!"
After Xiao Hai took the stage, the vicious and ruthless energy disappeared. He thanked him in a low voice shyly, and Nanako stroked his hair.
Just as Yagyu Hiroshi came on stage, Nanako shouted loudly: "Brother, come on!"
Yagyu Hiroshi waved to her with his body behind his back, turned around suddenly, and asked her, "Who do you like the most in the tennis club?"
Nanako said louder: "Little kelp!"
Yagyu Hiroshi entered the stage with a blank face.
King Ni laughed and held his belly with laughter, only Xiao Haidai was simply immersed in joy.
27.
Nanako Yagyu and Nanako Liusheng are not like ordinary siblings than Lu Shi, their relationship is very subtle, if you have to make it clear, Nanako Yagyu is probably coaxing Liusheng a little more than Lu Shi.
After a hard fight, Yagyu Hiroshi finally defeated the senior senior in high school, and now he was sitting in the rest area sweating, panting heavily under a towel.
Nanako carefully brought him a moderately warm sports drink, Hiroshi Yagyu took it, and asked her again: "Who do you like the most?"
"My favorite brother!"
"Humph."
Nanako was like a sweet bean. She took another towel and covered her brother's head, tilted her head slightly and looked at her brother: "Brother will definitely win the next round, right?"
——The next round will be Hiroshi Yagyu vs Chiya Kirihara.
Yagyu Bilushi said decisively, "Of course."
Not far away, Yukimura looked at the high-spirited Konbu and Yagyu Hiroshi with a smile, and said to Liu, "Look, Yagyu-san is very efficient."
Liu——Liu sighed with amazement, and Liu Fen wrote quickly.
28.
The battle between Yagyu Hiroshi and Kirihara Akaya has attracted much attention.
Yagyu has more advantages in height and strength, while Kirihara has a longer ball experience-frankly speaking, in the eyes of everyone, Yagyu is slightly inferior to Kirihara technically.
This is a contest of skill and physical strength, a contest of experience and mentality. Yagyu is like a guard knight on the top of the mountain. Only by crossing this mountain can Kirihara truly compete with the Big Three.
Kirihara wasn't in the right state - not again.
His eyes are full of viciousness, his eyes are bloodshot, his strength and agility have been greatly improved, and his shots are willful and full of malice.Kirihara's past experience and knowledge seemed to be inspired. He played a shot that completely surpassed his own skills, and hit the ball straight on Yagyu.Yagyu was hit a few times—the force of cutting the original was neither too strong nor too small, and it was okay for the teenager to have rough skin and thick flesh, but Nanako Yagyu quit.
But she didn't call to stop, she was waiting for Yukimura or Sanada to call to stop——
But they don't.
The surrounding spectators were still applauding Kirihara's rapid advances in technique and reflexes, shouting things like "Selfless Realm" or "Sure enough, it's an ace!".But the muffled sound of the ball hitting the puck and Nanako Yagyu's increasingly unfriendly appearance made them stop talking.
At halftime, Nanako Yagyu's face was frosty. She silently sprayed him with medicine and simply asked him, "Does it hurt?"
Nanako Yagyu's expression was very serious, she stared straight into Hiroshi Yagyu's eyes, waiting for his answer.
Hiroshi Yagyu realized that she wasn't asking "does it hurt?", but "whether I still play" or "whether I want to stay in this tennis club".
"It's okay, it's nothing serious." Yagyu raised his bruised arm and put his hand on Nanako Yagyu's shoulder. He also looked directly into Nanako's eyes: "I will win this game and tell him that it's all right. Not enough to be a killer weapon."
The two looked at each other in silence, and finally Nanako Yagyu gave in.
She nodded and shrugged: "OK, you are really a good senior."
29.
"Good senior" Liu Sheng has suffered a lot than Lu Shi.
His stamina and height are indeed superior to Kirihara's, but the last round he played against was an experienced senior from the third country, and Xiao Kelp didn't consume much in the last round; secondly, Yagyu's sparring experience is relatively lacking in Kirihara Chi Also more——
He often has to learn and experience new balls by catching the ball with his body. On the surface, Yagyu Hiroshi is simply trading for a chance to win. It's really embarrassing to score so badly.
But Liu Sheng carried it all down without saying a word. His sweat dripped on the field, and the bruises on his bare skin were reflected in the pupils of the people watching the battle. This kind of tenacity in chaos seemed to be another kind of strength and tolerance.
Most of the reasons why Yagyu joined the tennis club were Nioh Masaharu. Their doubles matches were similar and their strengths were outstanding.But there are still some members who are not satisfied with his quasi-candidate position-it's all about luck, study, and popularity.
But at this moment, no one would say "Yagyubi Lushi is not strong enough" or "Yagyubi Lushi entered the circle of the main election through the back door". They looked at this embarrassed boy, and couldn't help but look squarely at his dedicated and self-sufficient soul under his relaxed figure. .
Yagyu Hiroshi was gradually able to dodge some balls that hit his body and were destined to pass the line. With his stable performance and amazing physical strength, he defuses Kirihara's tough offensive—until Kirihara is relieved.
——For the last ball, Yagyu tried his best to pick a lob, but Kirihara was short and weak, so he missed it.
"Since then, Akari Kirihara's wishful thinking of 'beating the Big Three' came to an end. Opponents on both sides of the court bowed to each other and thanked each other for the lesson they taught me." Nanako Yagyu said in her heart.
She clapped her hands mockingly, crossed her arms and looked at the "Big Three" in the middle of the field.Just now she saw clearly, when Kirihara hit his brother with the second ball, Liu Renji wanted to stop, but was stopped by Yukimura and Sanada.
Liu Sheng was immediately helped aside by Nioh and others, and a special school doctor treated him.At this moment, Kirihara Chi also finally returned to his senses, and walked towards the direction of the Big Three with a face full of guilt.
Sanada looked solemn, and slowly raised his hand——
"Hey, Kirihara Akaya, come here."
Nanako looked uneasy, and everyone in the venue looked at her.
Kombu was about to cry, at this moment he would rather be beaten up by Senior Sanada than face Nanako with a cold face.
Sanada also looked at her, and slowly lowered his hand.
Nanako ignored him, she stared straight at Akaya Kirihara: "Come here."
Kirihara Akane also blushed, and walked slowly in front of Nanako Yagyu.
The girl stretched out her hand—Kiri thought Nanako was going to hit him, and waited with her eyes tightly closed, but Nanako raised her chin.Feeling the touch on his chin, Kirihara looked anxiously at Nanako's face who was so close.
"you do this delibrately?"
"No... I'm not! I'm sorry! I also... don't know what's going on... Woo..."
If Sanada had simply slapped him, Kirihara would not have lost his composure.But at this moment, Nanako held his chin, he didn't dare to resist, he could only look at her eyes that were flickering with coldness and questioning, and instead cried with guilt and sadness.
"Don't apologize to me, you didn't hit me again."
"I'm sorry... um." Kirihara remembered that he couldn't apologize, and closed his mouth tightly again, but tears fell down, as if he had a lot to say.
Nanako looked down at him, retracted her hand, and wiped her fingers with a handkerchief.
She crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows at the "Big Three" and said:
"Don't you have anything to say?"
30.
——"Don't you have anything to say?"
A second-year boy next to him had a bad tone: "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to the minister like that?"
—— "Who do you think you are? Do you know anything about the situation? If Chirihara Chi also injured his opponent on the playing field, who would be responsible?" Nanako Yagyu was not at all used to him, she looked unkindly Looking at the boy: "Are you going to be punished on his behalf? Daisuke Mizumoto, can you be responsible for Li Hai's suspension?"
Daisuke Mizumoto didn't expect Nanako to be able to call him by name, so he froze for a moment and didn't answer.
Sanada said in a deep voice: "I will discipline him personally, and I also ask Yagyu-san not to interfere in the tennis club's training."
Nanako Yagyu asked coolly, "What kind of discipline do you use? A slap?"
She slowly approached the three of them, and asked again: "Are you going to make Kirihara responsible for what he did when he was unconscious?"
Genichiro Sanada frowned. In his impression, Nanako Yagyu could ignore things, like her, she was aggressive because of her brother's injury, intervening in the tennis club's training, and openly challenged her—it was a behavior where selfish desires outweighed rules, and he strongly disagreed.He said righteously: "Of course people are responsible for their actions, whether they are sober or not."
Nanako Yagyu sneered: "You are evading your responsibility to discipline the players, Genichiro Sanada, you will only lead Kirihara to extreme paths until he is exhausted by the tennis club."
Nanako Yagyu looked at Seiichi Yukimura seriously, and asked in a deep voice, "Let me ask one last time, do you have the same attitude as Sanada?"
Nanako watched the game as a bystander, but she couldn't see anything.But if you get close to Liu, you can hear the data he collected and the thoughts of the knowledgeable people around you.
Anyway, Nanako heard that Liu was giving extra training to the members for various reasons.
