But of course, it is impossible for Liu Quan to say this. It just swirled in her mind and sank again.
She just shrugged her shoulders and said in an understated tone, "I'm guessing you'd think that this woman must have been psychopathic to come up with such a terrible idea, it's terrifying." ”
As if he didn't expect that this girl, who had been psychologically dark in his mind for many years, would suddenly speak so bluntly and frankly, Shiraishi was slightly stunned.
Then, he lowered his head, touched the hair on the back of his head with his hand, and chuckled.
"That's exactly what I thought about before...... However, it seems that when you say it so frankly, this idea sounds a little ridiculous. ”
The beautiful face of the white-haired young man was slightly lowered, and his eyebrows and eyes softened a little. The vague awkwardness and mutual defensiveness that had permeated them when they first met had vanished.
"Speaking of which, I can probably understand how you felt at the time...... If you think about it, you have lost the opportunity to play tennis forever, and your talent can only be wasted...... ...... who would have been selected for the women's team of the national team when the time came," Shiraishi said softly, slowly raising his head again and meeting Ryuzumi's eyes.
"What you've lost is something I can't imagine. Compared to your pain, failing to keep the promise of Hexiu-chan, and even facing a possible ban if the secret was revealed, this is really nothing ......"
The young man's clear gaze rested on her face. For a moment, it seemed that he had become the Kansai boy who held the racket and looked at her with a little curiosity, a talented player in the women's junior group.
"I can understand your retaliation. ...... However, if you choose to retaliate with tennis, I still can't agree with it. His voice was as clear and bright as it had been then.
"Tennis...... It should be something more important, more worthy of respect and cherishment. ”
Liu Quan was slightly stunned, and then seemed to be a little distracted, and a wry smile slowly bloomed at the corner of his lips.
Really...... It's what Shiraishi Kuranosuke of Shitenhoji Temple would say. That,Even if the former Shinya girl gambled on a qiē,,Can't beat.、A really sunny and healthy warm boy......
She blinked.
"yes...... I think that's why you've come to this point......" She looked at Shiraishi, who was still strangely dressed in the Shitenhoji Tennis Club uniform, even though he should have graduated from Shitenhoji and entered university by now, and her gaze flickered to his face.
"What I lost to you was not your skills, not your talent, not even the natural difference in physical fitness between boys and girls...... "I think about it, you beat me because of your attitude towards tennis." Tennis is fair...... Who loves it more, respects it more, and pursues it more seriously...... It will give someone sweeter in return—"
Perhaps she didn't expect her to use some rare words to describe tennis and herself, Shiraishi's eyes widened, and a stunned expression appeared on her pretty face.
Liu Quan looked at the young man in front of him with such a stunned look, which was not at all commensurate with his heroic posture on the court in the videos on the Internet, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Well, actually, I was ...... at that time It's not because you love tennis that you keep going. She thought slowly, synthesizing all the information she had obtained so far with the various inferences she had made, and with a slightly distracted expression, she said in shock.
...... If you can't get a real reason why Shinya will let herself be seriously injured by her reckless saving and start the tragedy of "genius fall", then let her be a substitute to give everyone a perfect and reasonable reason.
"Maybe it was out of interest at first...... But later, too much fame and fortune, too much praise, too much expectation, I have to keep achieving higher honors to glorify my parents' face, maintain the praise of others for my family, too heavy pressure and the burden of having to progress and win...... This qiē crushed me...... By the time I got to play against you, I was almost picking up my racket and coming out with hatred......"
Shiraishi couldn't have looked more stunned than this moment. He opened his mouth slightly, his eyes full of horror as he glared at her.
"Yes...... He seemed to have a lot of effort to clumsily squeeze out the word, his face full of confused, nervous, and confused expressions of "oh my God, how to deal with this situation, I really don't know."
Liu Quan looked directly at his face, smiled and showed a [bright smile full of sunshine without any mustard], and along the plan just now, from [ingenious lines that sound offensive, but if you think about it carefully, they actually contain precious kindness] suddenly turned, and it was a very natural transition to the ultimate step of [normal Xiang Jianqi lines that strive to get out of the haze and climb upward].
“...... It was a matter of course that I was defeated by you at that time. Even if that accident hadn't happened, my tennis career probably wouldn't have lasted long...... I think I'm going to be left behind by tennis at some point in the future...... Because at the beginning, I just relied on the little talent that God gave me, and hypocritically dealt with it in front of tennis, and I didn't take it seriously, respect it, and planned to make it the ultimate pursuit of my life......"
This gorgeous line is enough to wash away all the morbid episodes of the paranoid + snake spirit disease of the real Shinya girl.
"So, in front of me, who played tennis with this dark self-destructive thought, I deserved to fail. This is a kind of warning given to me by tennis...... It's not because of this that my life has been ruined. If I've failed so far, it's because I haven't faced it with a positive attitude......"
Liu Quan suddenly remembered a few words of conversation from a conversation with Shinobu Kenya just now.
[In your opinion...... Our original duel was a ...... What kind of competition?]
[uh...... Frankly, it wasn't just a battle between men and women. Is that...... The duel between two completely different styles of tennis, which has a textbook-like foundation, and tennis, which carelessly squandered God-given talents and handled each ball very casually. 】
[Before, before that happened, I ...... I've always thought it was the best competition I've ever seen with women......]
"At the end of the day, the perfect biblical tennis beat the bad tennis that squandered talent, which should have been the normal result. Ryuzumi shrugged his shoulders and deliberately cast his gaze on Shiraishi's left arm, which was still densely bandaged from knuckles to elbows.
“...... Not to mention that it is still in the case of weight on your arm. What a big failure for me...... I really want to cut off that eye-catching golden glittering arm. ”
The wry smile on Shiraishi's face couldn't have been greater.
"Hey, hey—" He grabbed his hair, and for a moment seemed to be distressed because there was no topic to distract her, so he turned to the standard funny fan of the Four Heavenly Treasure Temple—he exaggeratedly retracted his left arm into his arms, and then hugged his left arm with his right arm, and his face was so frightened that even his voice became trembling and trembling.
"Miss, how are you, how are you...... Know, uh...... The secret of this golden armguard?"
...... Hey, Shiraishi-kun, you're also the former head of a famous Kansai tennis school, so it's really good to look like you're being frightened by a huge shock.
Also, don't just go into the funny mode!
Liu Quan frowned and sighed very sadly.
...... Seriously, who knows how that broken lady knows the secret of your golden glittering arm!
But the perfect dialogue has been hit by 99 percent, and when she is about to kick the door, she plays an idiot and collapses the character, not to mention how frustrating it will be to give up the previous work, as long as you think about this branch line, if you brush out BE, she, the [selected player who has been selected after many tests], has not yet come out of the novice village, which is equivalent to having been knocked out of the ground, and permanently losing the hope of finally getting PerfectEnd - this bad prospect is devastating when you think about it, so it must be avoided at any cost!!
Liu Quan's brain was almost running at high speed with a loud squeak, mobilizing all the CPUs to use them to the limit, and finally grabbed a life-saving keyword in a short period of time!
“...... Arm. ”
"Huh?!" Shiraishi let out a surprised voice.
Liu Quan was silent for a second before he said the answer he had just thought of with black lines.
