[Net King] Take away my heart

We all live with masks, and over time, masks have become part of our lives. —Andre Berthiaume

"Hello, my name is Marui Bunta, please give me your advice."

Red hair, shining eyes, confident smile, like the embodiment of the sun's rays - Marui Bunta is such a person who makes people feel warm and can't help but want to get close to him.

Using his image, it is always easy to do things that are a bit difficult for me, such as mopping up with those aunts in the cafeteria, such as asking Jack to help run errands, such as peeking at the secret information collected by Liu.

As long as everything is done by Marui, no matter whether it is good or bad, even if he does something wrong, no one will really get angry at him. Marui has this special talent.

Walking in broad daylight, absorbing and bathing in a steady stream of active power, exuding the sunshine like green grass, so that everyone who sees him likes him and develops a good impression of him.Just like human beings are born dependent on the sun, they can't help but want to surround him, get closer, get closer, so that the warm sunlight can shine on him, so that the heat can be maintained, so that Melt all loneliness and coldness.

When Marui Bunta greeted me for the first time at the pre-enrollment briefing, I was sure that this person would be very useful in the future.

It couldn't be more convenient to become like him, greet people casually, chat with people casually, walk around casually, and is the focus of popularity no matter where you go, and you don't even need acting skills, just chew A bubble gum and then ask for more advice upside down and say it again.

It's easy to play the cheerful fool—and it's because of this reckless attitude in the first place that I accidentally do something stupid on the first day of school.

"Hey, wandering around in this kind of place, could it be that you got lost?"

I found a confused first-year freshman holding an admission notice in the corridor.

There was no one else in the hallway but us, but that didn't mean I had to go up and talk.I can completely ignore her overwhelmed appearance. Whether I am lost or scared or not, it has nothing to do with me. Anyway, I am not the type to help others at all.

But without knowing why, I spoke.Maybe my professionalism was awakened at that moment, and I couldn't help but throw myself into the role while thinking "ah... I'm playing Marui right now".Someone like Marui should be able to talk to girls, right?He will definitely take her to find the class enthusiastically, and after a few more conversations, they will become friends directly, um, that's the way it is.

I asked the girl about her class, and she answered in a low voice, that she was actually in the same class as Marui.Ha, I laughed dryly in my heart, but at the same time, there was a deep anxiety and fear in her eyes.

why?

At this moment, I am obviously Bunta Marui, the cute red-haired boy with a sunny smile and unparalleled affinity-I am not Nioh Masaharu, so why does she still have that look in the face of me? Come?

I stared at her for a few seconds, she quickly looked away as if frightened, and looked down at her toes stupidly.

"What a coincidence, we happen to be in the same class!" In order to make sure that the dress was not revealing, I put on my trademark bright smile, "It doesn't matter, I know the way, let's go there together?"

After a moment of hesitation, the guard on her face gradually relaxed.

"Ah."

After answering in a voice that was so soft that it was almost inaudible, I found that she was quietly peeking at my expression.I laughed again, more contagiously than ever.

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself to you yet!" I said in Marui's lively and cute voice.

——"Hello, my name is Marui Bunta! Please give me your advice."

Akiyama Yoshion doesn't know Marui Bunta.

Or she thought she knew him, but in fact the Marui she knew was not the real Marui.

Ah, that's probably not true.

Akiyama doesn't know me—that's the point.

Obviously we talked on the first day of school, and we met each other on the first day of school, but Akiyama didn't even know that there was such a person named Masaharu Nioh.

That's fine, if my disguise is exposed on the first day of school, then my junior high school life in the next three years will become extremely hard.

I think I have a pretty good eye for people, and as expected, Marui Bunta became a popular representative among first-year freshmen not long after entering school.In addition to the talent of gathering light, that guy also has a pretty good motor nerve.

He became friends with Jack Kuwahara, a classmate, and the two applied to join the tennis club together.

I don't have much enthusiasm for sports itself. It should be said that all sports that require exposure to the sun are not ideal for me.But since Marui joined the tennis club, it is not so easy to pretend to be him easily, because you will always inevitably encounter those weird things in the tennis club. Swinging to pick up the ball or run around, trying to shout out that I'm not real Marui Bunta can't do it, so I can only obediently stand up for him.

"Marui, I think you are talented in tennis, how about trying harder?"

At that time, the head of the tennis club was Seiichi Yukimura, who was invincible in the first grade and almost unbeatable in the entire Kanagawa Junior High School.Yukimura is a person with a flat personality, he doesn't look fierce or difficult to approach, but in fact his methods are very extreme.He never praises the members of the club easily, nor does he reprimand him face to face like Genichiro Sanada, but once someone is late and lazy or speaks ill of the tennis club behind his back, no matter how well that person thinks he is hiding, he will not be discovered , the next day you will definitely receive a paper to force you to withdraw from the ministry.

Yukimura recognized Marui's strength and encouraged him to continue working hard, which is very rare.

In the first grade, there were only three people in Likai, including Yukimura, and the remaining two were Genichiro Sanada and Renji Yanagi.

Will Marui be the next first-year main candidate?While thinking about this question, I was suddenly called out by Yukimura to arrange a match.

"Marui, let's play against Yanagi." He said calmly.

Yukimura's order is an imperial decree that will never be violated in the tennis club. If I refuse to play, then I will definitely receive a letter of resignation from the club.That would undoubtedly reveal that I am not the real Marui, but if I bite the bullet and go up to the competition, after all, I usually just follow the gourd to learn how to behave, and the actual foundation and amount of practice are not comparable to Marui Personally, if you lose the game in an ugly way, isn't the result also a one-paper resignation?

Forget it, no matter what, since the result is the same and I can't escape, then I'll just do it and see.

Liu Lian Er is a much more difficult player than imagined.His sophisticated computer-like mind and his unique way of playing data tennis exhausted me.But once I was pushed to the edge, I didn't seem to care so much about playing Marui or having to play the game with Marui's style of play. The ball hit back desperately.

It has been a long time since I experienced such a feeling.

The feeling of sweating, the feeling of being exposed to the sun, the feeling of being out of breath, the feeling that every inch of skin is burning... This feeling unexpectedly made me feel refreshed.

At the end of the game, I lost to Liu by a small gap of 7 to 5.Looking at me who was almost kneeling on the ground due to lack of energy on the field, Yukimura slowly clapped his hands twice.

"It was a beautiful game." He still had a calm expression on his face, "Thank you for your hard work."

The next day, he announced that Marui had become the main candidate.

At the end of the second half of the freshman year, I applied to join the tennis club, and became the last one among the first-year freshmen to break the rules and become a regular candidate.

The tennis club is full of guys with very different personalities, the three insurmountable mountains - Yukimura, Sanada, Yanagi, as well as the talented Marui and the Brazilian Jack with four lungs.

Seems like fun.

When the word "interesting" suddenly appeared in my mind after many years, I couldn't help being surprised.

interesting?What does it mean to be funny?What does fun mean?Interesting is such a strange and incomprehensible word to me.

Holding the racket, wearing a yellow jacket, standing on the court not as Marui but as myself, the moment I stepped on the ground, the light came down directly, and the heat that was so hot that it could burn everything surrounded me.

I am a person who does not belong to the world of light.

I thought that I would never be exposed to the light like this, that I would not be able to experience the so-called "fun", that my life should be a winding and narrow dark path, without a ray of sunshine and life all year round, I walked slowly There, walking and walking, walking and walking, you can't see the way when you turn back, and you can't see the exit when you go forward. There is only darkness and nothingness in front of you.

For me, life has no meaning except to live.It doesn't matter whether you are alive or dead. Some people are dead even if they are alive, and some people are still alive somewhere after death.

I can be the living dead, or I can be the living dead.

Only after swinging the racket and hitting the ball hard to the opposite side, there was a crisp "pop" in the ear, sweat spilled out with the large movements, every pore of the body was stretched, and was illuminated by the psychedelic and dazzling light. When I couldn't open my eyes, I finally realized——

I am alive.
