"Meow~~" When the mother and daughter were confronting each other, a cat meow attracted their attention.

I saw a small white cat squatting there in the window, with dark blue eyes, looking straight at the two of them, as if they could speak.

This scene is very eerie, especially in the dead of night, and it is even more terrifying.

But neither Mrs. Hosoya nor Chinatsu Hosoya were frightened, because they recognized this cute white kitten, a pet owned by someone, and an English name called Charlotte.

Although someone has not been adopted for a long time, they have already seen it.

The mother and daughter stared at Charlotte on the windowsill, and the atmosphere was unusually quiet.

"Meow~~" Charlotte screamed again, and suddenly the person stood up, lying on the glass window, and the cat's paw flicked to the left.

"Brush—"

The huge glass window for the kitten closed at once, and then it seemed to be hooked on such a game, and with its paws back, it opened the glass window, and played several times in a row before it stopped.

"......" Mrs. Hosoya and Chixia Hosoya were both shocked, such a small cat, maybe only a little bigger than the palm of a hand, could actually push open a huge glass window, and it seemed to be very relaxed.

After the shock, Mrs. Hosoya was the first to react, and the expression on her face became natural: "Chinatsu, I said, it was the cat that opened the window......"

Chinatsu Hosoya also reacted, knowing that she had misunderstood, and felt ashamed: "Yes, I'm sorry, Mom." "How could she think that, mom is not the kind of woman, it's her own cranky thoughts.

"It's late, go back and rest. Mrs. Hosoya obviously didn't take it to heart, and there was a hint of uncertainty in her eyes, as if she suspected that maybe it was really Charlotte's "prank" just now.

"Then I'll go back. Chinatsu Hosoya was ashamed, didn't dare to stay long, and left the room in a hurry.

……

On the other side, Li Xuehao also breathed a long sigh of relief, Charlotte really came in handy tonight. In fact, he was not afraid that the matter between himself and Mrs. Hosoya would be known by Chixia Hosoya, but it was too early now, and seeing Mrs. Hosoya's ashamed appearance just now, she probably couldn't accept that her daughter knew about her for a while, so he sent Charlotte to pretend to be the "wild cat".

Obviously, Charlotte pretended to be successful, at least Chinata Hosoya would not doubt it anymore, and even Mrs. Hosoya was probably doubting whether it was Charlotte's "pot".

After this episode, Li Xuehao couldn't go to Mrs. Hosoya anymore, so he could only sleep alone tonight.

The next day, he was the last to get up, because there was no class today.

Sakurano High School has two matches today, the opponent in the morning is Kanagawa Prefectural Hotta High School, and in the afternoon it is Yokohama City Akutsu High School, and the two high schools are not only excellent in kendo, but Akutsu High School and Tsurugi High School are almost the same, and they are all going through the motions.

After eating the breakfast left by Sayuri Chiba, Li Xuehao changed into yesterday's sportswear, put on a bag containing kendo armor, and went out.

At this time, the school started early, and the office workers also went to work. To his surprise, however, he saw Mrs. Hosoya at the gate of the front yard, and she seemed to be waiting here.

"Good morning, Manaka-kun. When Mrs. Hosoya saw him come out, she blushed a little, and she didn't know what she remembered.

"Good morning, Eriko. When no one is around, Li Xuehao calls her by name.

Eriko Hosoya looked around a little nervously and found that there was no one, so she breathed a sigh of relief: "...... last night" originally wanted to ask why she didn't come last night, but when the words came out, she was embarrassed to ask again.

"I was the one who opened the window last night. Li Xuehao took her words and said, "I didn't expect Qianxia to be in your room. ”

"Ahh......h Is that you?" she later thought it was Charlotte, because Charlotte had that ability.

"Yes, I saw Chixia in the room and quit. Li Xuehao nodded.

"That Charlotte ......" Eriko Hosoya was more than shocked.

"Charlotte was sent by me. Li Xuehao explained.

Eriko Hosoya's eyes widened, probably a little unimaginable that he could actually command his pet cat to do that kind of thing, but after the shock, she was ashamed again: "Qianxia said last night that she wanted to sleep with me, I was going to send you an email, but Qianxia took my phone, she was playing a game, and she needs the cooperation of another mobile phone......"

Li Xuehao finally understood why he saw the light of her mobile phone in her room last night, and it turned out that Chixia Hosoya was playing a game. In fact, if he had looked more closely at the time, he might have been able to find out that it was Chinatsu Hosoya.

"Eriko, is there something you're waiting for me here?" Usually at this time, Mrs. Hosoya should have gone to work at a convenience store a long time ago, and Li Xuehao guessed that she must have something to find herself.

"It's the store manager, she wants to ask you for something. Eriko Hosoya said.

"Mrs. Sawai?" Li Xuehao was a little surprised, Mrs. Sawai rarely asked him to help, and he deliberately passed the word through Mrs. Hosoya, I don't know what it is.

"Yes, the store manager hopes that Manaka-kun will meet her at the convenience store after class in the afternoon. Eriko Hosoya nodded.

"Okay, I'll be at the convenience store on time. Li Xuehao didn't hesitate, although he didn't have to go to class today, but the time after class could still be mastered, but he didn't know what Mrs. Sawai was looking for him, and Mrs. Hosoya didn't say it clearly, and it is estimated that she didn't know.

"Then I'll go to work first. After explaining the matter, Eriko Hosoya said goodbye and left.

Seeing her go away, Li Xuehao carried the bag and went in the opposite direction.

Kanagawa Prefectural Hotta High School is also in Yokohama City, but the distance is a little far, in Seya Ward, across several areas, and Tsurumi Ward is almost one east and one west of the two ends.

With such a distance, it is obviously not suitable to walk, but fortunately, the subway here extends in all directions and can be taken at any time.

When I arrived at Horita High School, it was already more than 9 o'clock, and there was less than half an hour before the 10 o'clock game.

At this time, he was obviously late, because the meeting time was 9 o'clock. Fortunately, he didn't have to play in the county competition, otherwise it is estimated that several calls urging him would have been called.

Just like yesterday's trip to Harumitsu High School, today's Horita High School is also very lively, as a home game, it is usually a holiday, and students from our school can enter the stadium to cheer for the school team.

After asking passers-by, Li Xuehao entered the gymnasium of Horita High School, where the competition between the two schools was held.

Compared with the kendo club in Yanghai Gakuen and the basketball hall of Harumi High School, the gymnasium of Horita High School is much taller, and the stands around it have neat seats, and it is conservatively estimated that hundreds of people can sit in each direction, which is compared to the kendo club or basketball hall that can only stand and watch.

At this time, the representatives of the two schools had already arrived on both sides of the field, the representative of Horita High School on the left, and the representative of Sakurano High School on the right.

Li Xuehao walked to the right with his bag, because he was the latest one, it looked very unique and attracted everyone's attention.

"Koji. ”

"Master. ”

Naomi Fukuen and Yoko Seto were kneeling on the sidelines, but they both stood up at this time.

"I'm sorry, I'm late. Li Xuehao walked over and put down the bag, there was no time to change clothes at this time, kneeling in a group of people wearing kendo protective gear, but it looked more conspicuous.

Toshiro Fukuen, who was a kendo instructor, didn't say anything, nodded at him, and continued to look at Horita High School opposite.

Horita High School was represented by both men and women, and their coach was a middle-aged man with a large body and a fat body, who didn't look like a kendo teacher at all, but like a sumo wrestler, but with a much smaller body than a sumo wrestler.

"Yoko, choose the 'Jade Dragon Flag' format after you play. "Maybe it was the performance of defeating Harumitsu High School yesterday that made Toshiro Fukuyuan full of confidence, although Horita High School still has some strength, but he thinks that Yoko Seto alone can solve it.

"Yes, Coach!" Yoko Seto was excited with excitement, like yesterday's game, she actually hoped to have a few more games.

The other participants had no opinion, including Naomi Fukudo, and everyone affirmed Yoko Seto's strength, and if she could solve the competition alone, they would certainly be happy.

In addition to the participants from the two schools, people are also allowed to stand in the open space behind them, but because they are very close to the participants, most of them are the support groups of the participating parties.

Li Xuehao saw Furukawa Kaede and Nito Yuanichi, and Nishino Cairen in the support group, in addition to the three of them, there were also members of the kendo club who missed Sakurano High School and students who specially asked for leave to cheer. Originally, there weren't many people in such a support group yesterday, but after Yoko Seto defeated Haruhitsu High School alone, there were at least several times more students who came on leave today than yesterday, so even if it wasn't at home, at least the representatives of Sakurano High School wouldn't feel lonely.

As time goes on, the game is finally about to start in earnest.

Yoko Seto, who was the first to appear, applied for the "Jade Dragon Banner" format, and Horita High School agreed to it, although he thought Sakurano High School was arrogant.

That's right, they've all heard the legend of one person defeating one school yesterday, but Horita High School is not an unknown school like Harumi High School, and they are also famous in the entire city of Yokohama, so they are not afraid of the "Jade Dragon Banner".

The Jade Dragon Banner seems to be very beneficial to a certain side with extremely strong players, but this is not the end of three games, the ordinary one-on-one five games and three wins, as long as you win three games first, the last two games do not need to be compared.

And the "Jade Dragon Banner" must fight all the people on one side, and the loser will continue to stay on the field until all five players on one side are defeated.

With such a consumption, even if the strength is very strong, it is difficult to hold out until the fifth game, even if it is defeated by an opponent who is slightly weaker but full of physical strength, and once the strongest player who defeats the opponent, the remaining four may be very weak, so maybe you can win.

Theoretically, there could even be nine matches in this format, which is extremely intense.

Horita High School probably has its own secret "weapon", so even if Sakurano High School was the one who defeated a school by herself yesterday, it didn't lower their confidence in the slightest.

With the referee's order, the game began.

Li Xuehao knelt in the crowd, he had already seen all the players in Horita High School first, none of them had as much qi and blood as Yoko Seto, but there was one closest to Yoko Seto, and the other party should be the strongest person in Horita High School, but he believed that Yoko Seto could still sweep the opponent today.

Under his guidance, even if her own qi and blood are on par with Yoko Seto, she will definitely not be her opponent.

Sure enough, after five games, Yoko Seto was easy in the first four games, except for a little effort in the fifth game.

Horita High School was silent, and there were many students cheering for them in the stands around the beginning, but after losing three games, the cheering tone weakened, and the last game was even more silent, I thought I could win at least one game to save some face, but I didn't expect to be swept by 1VS5.

Yoko Seto defeated Harumitsu High School by herself yesterday, and today she defeated Horita High School by herself, and after this battle, her reputation will definitely be even more prosperous.

"Coach Fuyuan, thank you very much for your advice, you have worked hard. After the match, the kendo coach of Horita High School, the "trumpet wrestler", walked over with the discouraged student representatives who had lost the match, and greeted Sakurano High School led by Toshiro Fukudo.

"Coach Okamoto, you are so kind, and thank you for your advice. "Although Fukuen Junlang is proud and proud, his etiquette on the surface is very humble.

"Hehe, it looks like you can win the national championship this year. Coach Okamoto straightened his big belly, and although he failed, he still smiled and congratulated the other party on his achievements.

"The national competition hasn't started yet, and it's too early to tell. Fukuen Junlang said modestly, but there was a smug tone in his tone, and he subconsciously glanced at a certain boy who didn't wear kendo armor and seemed out of place, this year, they are indeed unprecedentedly strong, and the national champion must belong to Sakurano High School.

Coach Okamoto felt his gaze to the side, and also looked over, as if he thought of something, and said with a smile: "It seems that in addition to Yoko Seto and Naomi Fukuen, you also have a strong representative, and the young man who is late is your strongest player." ”

"Coach Okamoto, you're so complimentary. Fuyuan Junlang snorted, that is his secret weapon, of course it will not be exposed now, and when it comes to the national competition, it will definitely shock everyone.
