The Prince of Tennis - I'm Echizen Ryoma
Chapter 351 A Peaceful Day During Summer Vacation
Although Fuji explained his unwavering friendship in front of my face, and did not do anything unexpected afterwards, I was secretly relieved when I said goodbye and went home when I was frightened that he was almost pushed off the embankment.
A woman's mind is like the changeable weather, where have I heard such a saying.If this statement is correct, it is obviously not only applicable to women—not to mention all over the world, even the waters of the seven continents and eight oceans cannot wash away the mind of that thousand-year-old demon fox.
In the evening sunlight, a person buried his head and walked quickly to the door of the house, and suddenly smelled a faint smell of smoke from the side.Isn't there a fire somewhere?Shrugging his nose, he followed the smell of smoke and glanced over, and saw a person standing by the fence under the shade of a tree.
This person was wearing tight black trousers and a black T-shirt, with short sleeves rolled up to his shoulders, and his two muscular arms were bare.As if sensing my gaze, the arrogant cockscomb head slightly raised.While the eyes with single eyelids under the tall eyebrows caught me, the corners of the plump lips with a cigarette in their mouths twisted evilly, "Yo, brat~"
It's not bad, you can talk without falling while holding a cigarette... Wait a minute, this is not what you should pay attention to - when did this guy start smoking again?
I didn't frown, and I didn't grab his cigarette butt and threw it on the ground for a while like last time. I looked indifferent, as if it was very common for him to appear at the gate of my house at this time. "What's up?"
Taking a deep breath, he took the cigarette out of his mouth, and with a flick of two fingers, he flew into the trash can not far away. He straightened up, "Walk with me for a while."
"Okay." I responded immediately, and I didn't forget to add a condition, "If you buy burgers."
"I can't see that you are so young and can eat so much?" Coming out of the burger shop, Ajiujin couldn't help but glance at the bulging food bag I was holding in my hand.
What is a little boy?For the sake of you being the patron today, I will endure it. "Hey, where are we going next?"
"I don't know." Huh?This guy answered really confidently.After waving his hand, he added, "Whatever."
When you are the king of the mountain?Look at that stinkin' posture, those who don't know think you are saying "little ones, lead the way~"!
Half an hour later, by the tennis court of Youth Academy.
Looking at the usually noisy stadium that now looks a bit empty, I secretly sighed.I turned here as I walked, the power of habit is really powerful.
"What is the so-called tennis ball to me?" Ajiujin squatted outside the tennis court with his arms on his knees and the standard posture of a bad boy, with a deep expression on his face.
Squat side by side with legs spread apart like him—why do I feel that our posture looks like two frogs staring at a tennis court?
"You know Companion, kid?"
That Shanbuki old fox?I'm a bit impressed. "Well."
"He said that there is a recommended spot from the California Tennis School in the United States, and he hopes I will consider it."
It turns out that you smoke and pretend to be deep to worry about this.I opened my eyes wide, "What a chance."
"Should I go?"
"Of course." Needless to say!
"Even if I went to the United States, it would be boring without you." Contrary to my excitement, Akutsu seemed less interested.
"You want me to cover you so much~" I said jokingly.
"Little brat," he said with a sinister smile, leaning over his head and staring at me, "you want to die, don't you?"
Threat again.Please, even if your face is full of viciousness, I still look at faces of the same level as yours almost every day, and I don't feel anything anymore.
Automatically ignore his threats, and look at him unmoved, "Tennis is fun. Play it for yourself."
"Forget it, we won't talk about tennis today." He stretched his hands back and sat down on the grass. He looked up at the sky, and suddenly said something that stunned me, "Why is the sky so blue?"
Huh?Why did the topic go so far away all of a sudden?Following his example, raise your head and look far away.Well, this is probably because of the inexplicable and complicated relationship between the wavelengths of the seven colors of sunlight and air particles.
Just as I was about to show him the knowledge I learned in natural science books, I heard him ask again, "Why is the grass so green?"
Why?Then imitate his appearance and bow his head in a deep state.This, has something to do with chlorophyll, right?Before I could think clearly, there was another faint sentence next to it, "Why is the sunset so red?"
Looking back at this guy who looked up at the sky for a while and looked at the ground without fear of a sore neck, I had an absurd thought—could this Yajiujin in front of me be possessed by the spirit of that curious baby with a big nose in the hexagon?Fortunately, two streams of white smoke have not been blown out of the nose, and there is a long whistle of "Woo--"...
"Why is the familiar scenery different from the past, so vivid?"
wrong!This guy with shining eyes and deep thought is definitely not the usual gloomy and impulsive Akutsu!Raise your left hand to touch his forehead, isn't it hot, isn't it hot?
Why is he staring at me so fiercely?With a flash of inspiration, I suddenly realized that I hid the food bag in my right hand, and stared at him vigilantly, "Don't try to make up your mind, these are all mine." Your portion has already been eaten!
The corner of his mouth twitched, and Akutsu's expression suddenly became very strange.After staring at each other for a while, he finally shifted his gaze under my unflinching eyes, gave up and let out a long sigh, "Ah~ why is it so hot in summer, people are all fainted, damn it!"
Not hot at all?I feel like a cool breeze.My feet are numb after squatting for a long time.Putting the food bag aside, I crossed my legs and lay down on the grass, and I heard him look ahead and throw a sentence, "Am I a little abnormal?"
Not a little, it's totally abnormal.I squinted at him, "How long have you been in this situation?"
"It started after the match with you, and it's getting worse recently."
Understood. "You are suffering from tennis absence anxiety." I pretended to fix the non-existent lenses, and made a diagnosis in the tone of a senior doctor, "It's like hallucinations when drug addiction occurs."
"Stop talking nonsense, it doesn't matter if I haven't played tennis for so many years! Hey, didn't I say that I won't talk about tennis today!" Ajiujin turned his head angrily, saw me lying on the grass, and suddenly paused, "I said You, don't sleep around! Did you hear me, kid!"
Control the world and control where I sleep?I stretched out my index finger and shook him coolly twice, I pouted slowly, "Don't try to order me~"
"You kid!" Yajiujin tried his best to put on a cold face, "Aren't you afraid that some bad guys will take advantage of you?"
I patted my pocket, and I was full of confidence, "I am poor, and thieves will not find me."
"That's not the problem!" Akujin yelled at me angrily, "What if I meet the same guy as those high school students last time!"
Thinking back on it, I still don't think it's a problem.Naturally, I am very sensitive to other people's malice and murderous intent, coupled with the super-normal reaction from tennis and martial arts training, if I want to beat me while I am asleep, according to Qian's statement, the possibility is zero.
What's more, I gave someone a naughty smile, "Isn't it because you're here~"
After staring blankly for a while, Yajiujin suddenly lay upright next to me——abandoned himself.
With a pillow in one hand and an elbow propped up, this guy who failed to preach breathed into my ear unwillingly, his voice hoarse and low, "What if I'm a bad person..."
Am I scared?Half-closed my eyes to enjoy the cool breeze mixed with the smell of grass in the evening, my voice was vague, but the meaning was affirmative, "You are not."
He raised his upper body, propped his hands beside my head, and looked down at me. Yakujin's laughter sounded softly, "Hmph, what a pity, you misread the person~"
Yeah?Then... Gently put his shoulders on his shoulders, and at the same time with the corners of his mouth raised, he pushed his knee hard and turned over. I held him back, "Let me teach you, what is justice must win~"
"Hey~ I said that you will change your mind in the future, stop smoking, and stop being a bad person~" The surprise attack had the upper hand, and I was triumphant, posing like a winner.
"Well, I don't smoke anymore." Looking at me while lying on his back, there was an indescribable gleam in Akutsu's eyes, "But I still want to be a bad guy, I must."
Are you trying to argue with me?Raising my eyebrows and grinning, I was about to put some more pressure on him, when a strange feeling suddenly surged in my heart, which made me turn my head and look back involuntarily.
"What's the matter, brat?" Sitting up, Yajiujin looked at me who jumped up suddenly, puzzled.
No time to explain anything, I fixed my eyes on the vague figure not far from the tennis court, as if being drawn, I walked over step by step.
Impossible, impossible, impossible.I walked faster and closer, and when the familiar figure standing upright was in front of me, I still couldn't believe it.
When did you return to Japan?Why not notify us?The arm is all right?Can we play tennis together from now on?How long have you been standing here?Worried about the tennis club?
There are so many things I want to ask, but I can't say a word.It took me a long time to move the corner of my lower lip, and said awkwardly, "You're back."
After a while of silence, his low voice came from the wind, "Ah, I'm back."
Volume No.16: The Call of the Other Shore Chapter 352 The Brothers Reunited Eight Years Later ([-])
Songs in sixteen volumes:
Will you be timid tomorrow?
Or continue the awakened dream
Can be restored even if destroyed
a sense of truth and relativeness
Flying in the wind right now
silenced sigh
echoes in the streets
feel the excitement
deep melody
Accelerate in the dazzling future
Cut off the constant dripping loneliness
One step ahead and coexistence with possibility
Even if it is eroded by tears
Even if it's illusory
still to the unknown world
Go beyond the limit
When the dream hidden deep in the body emerges
as bright as the sun
reflect the new era
————————————————————————————————————————
The blue sea, the bright sunshine, and the lush orange groves.On the grass under the green shade, there are many yellow tennis balls dotted.
"Bang..." Another tennis ball fell, rolled on the ground for a short distance, and leaned weakly at the feet of a little boy in red short-sleeved blue overalls.
The boy wore a disproportionately large white hat on one side, a small tennis racket in one hand, and the rolling tennis ball in the other. He raised his bright eyes, and looked up at the branches dotted with the same flowers unwillingly. There are many small lanterns of golden and dazzling oranges.
This little boy is me.
"Want to eat oranges?Hit it with a tennis ball by yourself~』
That's how the bad middle-aged man answered his drooling son with pleading eyes.When he said that nonchalantly, he completely forgot the actual age of his son.
For several days in a row, whenever I was free, I spent time in this orange grove.Tried countless times, the result is failure.Obviously, even if I could hit the oranges, I was nowhere near strong enough to knock them down.
Anyway, the stinky old man is not here, why not...
I casually wiped away the sweat that rolled down my forehead, so as not to hurt my eyes again when it fell off, took a breath to calm down my short and chaotic breathing after climbing the tree for a long time, and stretched my arms as much as I could while climbing the thick tree trunk.
"Uh, uh-"
The plump orange in front of me looks plump and sweet, and if you work harder, it will be enough!
"Hey, little one~"
The sloppy drawn-out tone made me tremble all over, and when I looked back, there was a figure of a young man under the shade of a tree not far away.Throwing a tennis ball, the boy raised his head, jumped up, and swung the racket.
The ball whizzed, flew past my surprised eyes, and hit the orange with a "pop".The orange fell, hit me on the head, and rolled with my hat onto the floor.
"Yoho~" A tennis racket stretched out, just in time to catch the orange that was about to fall to the ground, and the boy under the tree raised his head and smiled triumphantly at me.
"Give it back to me! My orange!" I yelled angrily as I descended from the tree on all fours.
"Your? Hmph~" Skillfully shaking the orange with a tennis racket, the young man picked it up casually, and the orange fell into his left hand in a smooth parabola. "Is your name written on it?"
Then he opened his big mouth unceremoniously, "swish", and took a big bite of the booty in his hand, including the belt and flesh.As if to show off how delicious and juicy the orange was, while chewing with his eyes closed, he stuck out his tongue and licked it around his lips.
my oranges!There was a throbbing pain in my stomach, and I yelled, and I flew towards him, "Oh--"
"Hi Zol~" In a somersault, he easily dodged me and threw his tennis racket.
"Huh?" Subconsciously reached out to catch it, and saw him take off his green shirt again.
Holding up the fruit of victory with one hand, and shaking his shirt with the other, the boy's wheat-colored skin gleamed in the sun, "Hey~ here~ here~ come and catch me~"
With a teasing smile in his mouth, he threw the clothes on my head as I ran over.
"Oh!" After finally pulling off the sweaty clothes that covered my head and face, I gasped for breath, and I was angry, "Stop!"
Under the dazzling sun, beside the blue seashore, the little boy is desperately chasing the boy's back.
"Tom——" With a graceful leap, the young man plunged into the sea from the high cliff, splashing snow-white waves.
"Give it back to me! My oranges!" Running to the edge of the cliff, I could only yell at the white line that was receding on the sea.
"You are still far away~" The boy in the waves raised his arm and waved it casually, and the golden orange illuminated by the sun flew straight towards me, "Small~short~~~~"
"Give it back to me...uh..."
Eyelids were opened a little, and in the backlight, I vaguely saw a figure beside me shaking the orange in his hand up and down, making a soft "pop" sound.who is it?
Subconsciously raised his hand to block the glare of the sun, when he opened his eyes again, only the blue sky and white clouds and the sound of the waves were left.
"Is it a dream...?" Why do I dream of such a distant past? I'm not old, am I?
Between the fingers, seagulls crossed the field of vision, singing happily.A strong sea wind roared in, and the twitching hair whipped his cheeks sorely.
I was stunned for a while on the deck chair, and for a while, the tourists passing by in twos and threes on the deck reminded me that we are currently on an ultra-luxury cruise ship sailing at sea.
When the eyelids were sticking together again, two fingers suddenly stretched out and clamped my nose.
"Uh...uh!" Shaking my head violently, I managed to get rid of the pair of iron clamps, and I sat up at once, letting out a sigh of relief.
"You, what do you want to do, Taocheng senior!" I yelled angrily at the culprit squatting beside me, and rubbed my nose that was estimated to be half an inch long in dissatisfaction.
"I didn't think about it~" Taocheng who was squatting raised his eyebrows and shot me a glance.
A white hat was pressed silently to my head.Turning his head to look, Kikumaru stationed himself with his hands on his hips and stretched out his finger, "It's really small~" He shook his head and sighed resentfully, "It's rare to get on a luxury passenger ship, and you're actually sleeping like a dick!"
"Since you're here~" A malicious smile suddenly appeared on his face, Kikumaru raised his arms and rushed over to grab my clothes, "You should have fun!"
With a "shua" sound, I couldn't stop myself, even the jacket with short sleeves and belt was stripped off, leaving only the tops of the trousers.
"But aren't we here for a tennis match?" I tried to correct their misunderstanding.
The fact is that when a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain.Kikumaru hugged my neck and ribs with both arms, and Taocheng raised my waist and legs with both hands. These two guys carried me to the pool happily, shouting "one, two..." and planned to throw me down.
"That's right, young people should enjoy themselves in time." A voice stopped Kikumaru Momoshiro's movements.
Two people stepped down the gangway.The middle-aged man who spoke out was wearing a stylish suit, and he smoked a cigar stylishly, "There are many entertainment facilities on this ship, since you're here, let's have fun."
"Ah... that..." Looking over, Taocheng cautiously asked the person next to the middle-aged man, "Minister Tezuka, who is this?"
The minister in the blue and white shirt introduced calmly, "This is the owner of this passenger ship, Mr. Sakurabuki Yukihiko Maro."
"That is to say..." "The... rich man who entertained us on this ship?!" Still holding on to me, Momoshiro Kikumaru stared wide-eyed.
Pressing down on the brim of my hat, until now, I still have no real sense of the fact that the minister has returned.As for why we are on the luxury liner, the reason can be traced back to the second day when the minister came back.
"Huh? Playing tennis on a luxury passenger ship?" Everyone in the staff room of Qingxue was shocked.
"That's it." The old lady Ryuzaki crossed her arms, "It is said that Mr. Sakurabuki Hikomaro is a very keen tennis fan. Anyway, I want to have a tennis exhibition match as the highlight of the party on the boat. I implore us to go join."
"Huh?" Everyone opened their mouths in disbelief.
"Hehe, it sounds interesting to play tennis on the boat~" Fuji expressed his opinion with a smile on his face.
"Great! It's my first time on a luxury passenger ship!" Kawamura clenched his fists excitedly.
"I earned it!" Kikumaru jumped up and hugged me around my neck, "It's the first time for this little one~"
"Hmm..." I rolled my eyes after being pinched by him, and I curled my lips angrily, "No, I have taken a ride in the United States before." More than once.
"What?!" Kikumaru exaggeratedly let go of me.
It's not surprising. In the old man's day, those who could play tennis at home couldn't be poor.It is said that the Echizen main family is still a famous family.
Even if the old man doesn't get any benefits from his family, his previous professional tennis experience and the good friends he made are enough for him to eat and drink-that is to say, the reason why I often get penniless and poor is all because of the old man The relationship between being stingy and not giving pocket money.
"Great! Great!" Taocheng Guzi jumped up and down happily, "Luxury passenger ship! Luxury passenger ship!"
"It's so noisy!" Taocheng's cheers were interrupted by a deep roar, Haitang put his arms around his chest, and glanced at Taocheng with disdain, "Really, it's annoying like a child!"
"What are you talking about, little snake!" Taocheng immediately jumped forward with angry eyebrows, "Aren't you happy!"
"I never said that!" Haitang shook his fist back.
"Hey, stop arguing, both of you." Dashi hurriedly smoothed things over.
"This is a rare experience." The calm tone made everyone turn their heads to look, and the minister made a final decision, "We accept his kindness and accept this invitation."
"No objection!" Everyone said in unison.
The camera turns back to the bustling luxury liner swimming pool.
"I'm Yuki Hikomaro Sakurabuki, please take care of me."
"Ah, no, please take care of me here." "Thank you for your hospitality!" Taocheng Kikumaru nodded and bowed again and again, and then, probably because they thought the burden in their hands was troublesome, there was a "boom", which took me by surprise. The work time threw me directly into the water!
A woman's mind is like the changeable weather, where have I heard such a saying.If this statement is correct, it is obviously not only applicable to women—not to mention all over the world, even the waters of the seven continents and eight oceans cannot wash away the mind of that thousand-year-old demon fox.

This person was wearing tight black trousers and a black T-shirt, with short sleeves rolled up to his shoulders, and his two muscular arms were bare.As if sensing my gaze, the arrogant cockscomb head slightly raised.While the eyes with single eyelids under the tall eyebrows caught me, the corners of the plump lips with a cigarette in their mouths twisted evilly, "Yo, brat~"
It's not bad, you can talk without falling while holding a cigarette... Wait a minute, this is not what you should pay attention to - when did this guy start smoking again?
I didn't frown, and I didn't grab his cigarette butt and threw it on the ground for a while like last time. I looked indifferent, as if it was very common for him to appear at the gate of my house at this time. "What's up?"
Taking a deep breath, he took the cigarette out of his mouth, and with a flick of two fingers, he flew into the trash can not far away. He straightened up, "Walk with me for a while."
"Okay." I responded immediately, and I didn't forget to add a condition, "If you buy burgers."
"I can't see that you are so young and can eat so much?" Coming out of the burger shop, Ajiujin couldn't help but glance at the bulging food bag I was holding in my hand.
What is a little boy?For the sake of you being the patron today, I will endure it. "Hey, where are we going next?"
"I don't know." Huh?This guy answered really confidently.After waving his hand, he added, "Whatever."
When you are the king of the mountain?Look at that stinkin' posture, those who don't know think you are saying "little ones, lead the way~"!
Half an hour later, by the tennis court of Youth Academy.
Looking at the usually noisy stadium that now looks a bit empty, I secretly sighed.I turned here as I walked, the power of habit is really powerful.
"What is the so-called tennis ball to me?" Ajiujin squatted outside the tennis court with his arms on his knees and the standard posture of a bad boy, with a deep expression on his face.
Squat side by side with legs spread apart like him—why do I feel that our posture looks like two frogs staring at a tennis court?
"You know Companion, kid?"
That Shanbuki old fox?I'm a bit impressed. "Well."
"He said that there is a recommended spot from the California Tennis School in the United States, and he hopes I will consider it."
It turns out that you smoke and pretend to be deep to worry about this.I opened my eyes wide, "What a chance."
"Should I go?"
"Of course." Needless to say!
"Even if I went to the United States, it would be boring without you." Contrary to my excitement, Akutsu seemed less interested.
"You want me to cover you so much~" I said jokingly.
"Little brat," he said with a sinister smile, leaning over his head and staring at me, "you want to die, don't you?"
Threat again.Please, even if your face is full of viciousness, I still look at faces of the same level as yours almost every day, and I don't feel anything anymore.
Automatically ignore his threats, and look at him unmoved, "Tennis is fun. Play it for yourself."
"Forget it, we won't talk about tennis today." He stretched his hands back and sat down on the grass. He looked up at the sky, and suddenly said something that stunned me, "Why is the sky so blue?"

wrong!This guy with shining eyes and deep thought is definitely not the usual gloomy and impulsive Akutsu!Raise your left hand to touch his forehead, isn't it hot, isn't it hot?
Why is he staring at me so fiercely?With a flash of inspiration, I suddenly realized that I hid the food bag in my right hand, and stared at him vigilantly, "Don't try to make up your mind, these are all mine." Your portion has already been eaten!
The corner of his mouth twitched, and Akutsu's expression suddenly became very strange.After staring at each other for a while, he finally shifted his gaze under my unflinching eyes, gave up and let out a long sigh, "Ah~ why is it so hot in summer, people are all fainted, damn it!"
Not hot at all?I feel like a cool breeze.My feet are numb after squatting for a long time.Putting the food bag aside, I crossed my legs and lay down on the grass, and I heard him look ahead and throw a sentence, "Am I a little abnormal?"
Not a little, it's totally abnormal.I squinted at him, "How long have you been in this situation?"

Control the world and control where I sleep?I stretched out my index finger and shook him coolly twice, I pouted slowly, "Don't try to order me~"

No time to explain anything, I fixed my eyes on the vague figure not far from the tennis court, as if being drawn, I walked over step by step.
Impossible, impossible, impossible.I walked faster and closer, and when the familiar figure standing upright was in front of me, I still couldn't believe it.
When did you return to Japan?Why not notify us?The arm is all right?Can we play tennis together from now on?How long have you been standing here?Worried about the tennis club?
There are so many things I want to ask, but I can't say a word.It took me a long time to move the corner of my lower lip, and said awkwardly, "You're back."
After a while of silence, his low voice came from the wind, "Ah, I'm back."

The blue sea, the bright sunshine, and the lush orange groves.On the grass under the green shade, there are many yellow tennis balls dotted.
"Bang..." Another tennis ball fell, rolled on the ground for a short distance, and leaned weakly at the feet of a little boy in red short-sleeved blue overalls.
The boy wore a disproportionately large white hat on one side, a small tennis racket in one hand, and the rolling tennis ball in the other. He raised his bright eyes, and looked up at the branches dotted with the same flowers unwillingly. There are many small lanterns of golden and dazzling oranges.

"Give it back to me! My orange!" I yelled angrily as I descended from the tree on all fours.
"Your? Hmph~" Skillfully shaking the orange with a tennis racket, the young man picked it up casually, and the orange fell into his left hand in a smooth parabola. "Is your name written on it?"
Then he opened his big mouth unceremoniously, "swish", and took a big bite of the booty in his hand, including the belt and flesh.As if to show off how delicious and juicy the orange was, while chewing with his eyes closed, he stuck out his tongue and licked it around his lips.
my oranges!There was a throbbing pain in my stomach, and I yelled, and I flew towards him, "Oh--"
"Hi Zol~" In a somersault, he easily dodged me and threw his tennis racket.
"Huh?" Subconsciously reached out to catch it, and saw him take off his green shirt again.
Holding up the fruit of victory with one hand, and shaking his shirt with the other, the boy's wheat-colored skin gleamed in the sun, "Hey~ here~ here~ come and catch me~"
With a teasing smile in his mouth, he threw the clothes on my head as I ran over.
"Oh!" After finally pulling off the sweaty clothes that covered my head and face, I gasped for breath, and I was angry, "Stop!"
Under the dazzling sun, beside the blue seashore, the little boy is desperately chasing the boy's back.
"Tom——" With a graceful leap, the young man plunged into the sea from the high cliff, splashing snow-white waves.
"Give it back to me! My oranges!" Running to the edge of the cliff, I could only yell at the white line that was receding on the sea.
"You are still far away~" The boy in the waves raised his arm and waved it casually, and the golden orange illuminated by the sun flew straight towards me, "Small~short~~~~"
"Give it back to me...uh..."
Eyelids were opened a little, and in the backlight, I vaguely saw a figure beside me shaking the orange in his hand up and down, making a soft "pop" sound.who is it?
Subconsciously raised his hand to block the glare of the sun, when he opened his eyes again, only the blue sky and white clouds and the sound of the waves were left.
"Is it a dream...?" Why do I dream of such a distant past? I'm not old, am I?
Between the fingers, seagulls crossed the field of vision, singing happily.A strong sea wind roared in, and the twitching hair whipped his cheeks sorely.
I was stunned for a while on the deck chair, and for a while, the tourists passing by in twos and threes on the deck reminded me that we are currently on an ultra-luxury cruise ship sailing at sea.
When the eyelids were sticking together again, two fingers suddenly stretched out and clamped my nose.
"Uh...uh!" Shaking my head violently, I managed to get rid of the pair of iron clamps, and I sat up at once, letting out a sigh of relief.
"You, what do you want to do, Taocheng senior!" I yelled angrily at the culprit squatting beside me, and rubbed my nose that was estimated to be half an inch long in dissatisfaction.
"I didn't think about it~" Taocheng who was squatting raised his eyebrows and shot me a glance.
A white hat was pressed silently to my head.Turning his head to look, Kikumaru stationed himself with his hands on his hips and stretched out his finger, "It's really small~" He shook his head and sighed resentfully, "It's rare to get on a luxury passenger ship, and you're actually sleeping like a dick!"
"Since you're here~" A malicious smile suddenly appeared on his face, Kikumaru raised his arms and rushed over to grab my clothes, "You should have fun!"
With a "shua" sound, I couldn't stop myself, even the jacket with short sleeves and belt was stripped off, leaving only the tops of the trousers.
"But aren't we here for a tennis match?" I tried to correct their misunderstanding.
The fact is that when a scholar meets a soldier, there is no reason to explain.Kikumaru hugged my neck and ribs with both arms, and Taocheng raised my waist and legs with both hands. These two guys carried me to the pool happily, shouting "one, two..." and planned to throw me down.
"That's right, young people should enjoy themselves in time." A voice stopped Kikumaru Momoshiro's movements.
Two people stepped down the gangway.The middle-aged man who spoke out was wearing a stylish suit, and he smoked a cigar stylishly, "There are many entertainment facilities on this ship, since you're here, let's have fun."
"Ah... that..." Looking over, Taocheng cautiously asked the person next to the middle-aged man, "Minister Tezuka, who is this?"
The minister in the blue and white shirt introduced calmly, "This is the owner of this passenger ship, Mr. Sakurabuki Yukihiko Maro."
"That is to say..." "The... rich man who entertained us on this ship?!" Still holding on to me, Momoshiro Kikumaru stared wide-eyed.
Pressing down on the brim of my hat, until now, I still have no real sense of the fact that the minister has returned.As for why we are on the luxury liner, the reason can be traced back to the second day when the minister came back.
"Huh? Playing tennis on a luxury passenger ship?" Everyone in the staff room of Qingxue was shocked.
"That's it." The old lady Ryuzaki crossed her arms, "It is said that Mr. Sakurabuki Hikomaro is a very keen tennis fan. Anyway, I want to have a tennis exhibition match as the highlight of the party on the boat. I implore us to go join."
"Huh?" Everyone opened their mouths in disbelief.
"Hehe, it sounds interesting to play tennis on the boat~" Fuji expressed his opinion with a smile on his face.
"Great! It's my first time on a luxury passenger ship!" Kawamura clenched his fists excitedly.
"I earned it!" Kikumaru jumped up and hugged me around my neck, "It's the first time for this little one~"
"Hmm..." I rolled my eyes after being pinched by him, and I curled my lips angrily, "No, I have taken a ride in the United States before." More than once.
"What?!" Kikumaru exaggeratedly let go of me.
It's not surprising. In the old man's day, those who could play tennis at home couldn't be poor.It is said that the Echizen main family is still a famous family.
Even if the old man doesn't get any benefits from his family, his previous professional tennis experience and the good friends he made are enough for him to eat and drink-that is to say, the reason why I often get penniless and poor is all because of the old man The relationship between being stingy and not giving pocket money.
"Great! Great!" Taocheng Guzi jumped up and down happily, "Luxury passenger ship! Luxury passenger ship!"
"It's so noisy!" Taocheng's cheers were interrupted by a deep roar, Haitang put his arms around his chest, and glanced at Taocheng with disdain, "Really, it's annoying like a child!"
"What are you talking about, little snake!" Taocheng immediately jumped forward with angry eyebrows, "Aren't you happy!"
"I never said that!" Haitang shook his fist back.
"Hey, stop arguing, both of you." Dashi hurriedly smoothed things over.
"This is a rare experience." The calm tone made everyone turn their heads to look, and the minister made a final decision, "We accept his kindness and accept this invitation."
"No objection!" Everyone said in unison.
The camera turns back to the bustling luxury liner swimming pool.
"I'm Yuki Hikomaro Sakurabuki, please take care of me."
"Ah, no, please take care of me here." "Thank you for your hospitality!" Taocheng Kikumaru nodded and bowed again and again, and then, probably because they thought the burden in their hands was troublesome, there was a "boom", which took me by surprise. The work time threw me directly into the water!
