40.Chapter.39 Final (II)

"It's still hard to believe...... It's just a game for high school students......"

Mamoru Inoue has been promoted to the editor-in-chief of Tennis Monthly, and although it is not the whole reason, his promotion does have a lot to do with the teenagers on the court. In the past, the focus on campus tennis was often limited to high schools and universities, and even national competitions for middle school students only attracted the attention of some local television stations and newspapers.

It was two years ago that he insisted on interviewing the tennis school in junior high school, which did not attract attention at the time, and only Shiba Saori, a newcomer, was willing to accompany him to toss. But then the exceptional selection of junior high school students in the U17 training camp and the small whirlwind they set off on the international stage are enough to prove his keen eye as a "Bole".

The industry has vaguely referred to what is now being the warm-up period for the second golden age.

In the last golden age, there was a genius like Minamijiro Echizen who was "rare in a hundred years".

Samurai Minamijiro has won 37 straight matches at the World Open and is just one match away from becoming a world champion. The reason why he withdrew from the competition is still a mystery, but with his uninhibited personality, it's no surprise that he did anything. Fortunately, Tezuka Kunimitsu, who has gradually emerged in the professional network, is so meticulous that it even makes people awe at a glance, and eighty percent will not make such a shocking move that makes people fall through the glasses, and may be able to fill the regret in the hearts of the Japanese for many years.

And the rest of the players who are still on campus, especially the minister Yukimura Seiichi affiliated with Lihai University, are also pinned on high hopes.

"Huh? Didn't Inoue senpai get used to their games for a long time? Shibasaori wears a mint green visor, and looks a lot more mature than two years ago, but in fact, when talking to her seniors, she still babbles, "Wow! Seniors, look at it! So handsome! ...... Yukimura-kun Yes...... No, no, there is also a trace-kun...... Yes! I can't see it anymore!! Is! These kids are too much! It's so handsome! ”

Facing the junior with pink hearts in his eyes, Mamoru Inoue was the same as before, and his face was instantly covered with black lines.

She held her excited face and said something professionally related: "Who does Inoue think will win?" ”

Mamoru Inoue hesitated for a few seconds, then looked up at the fierce battle in the arena, and did not give a definite answer, but exhaled a breath, and amusedly reminded this strange sister who was fascinated by high school students, "Don't get distracted, take a good look." This kind of duel, but watch it once less than once, and learn to cherish it. ”

"Huh?" Shibasaori let out a cry of surprise, but then was torn away by a backhand interception by Keigo Jibe, forgetting all the kind reminders of his predecessors.

Inside the field.

Zhenji was also holding a pen in one hand and a notebook in the other, focusing on the battle between the two ministers.

It can be seen that in the second half of the game, Yukimura Seiichi has vaguely gained the upper hand.

I have long known that the extraordinary title of "Son of God" is not something that anyone can afford, and Maki can also observe Yukimura Seiichi's superior body from the muscle proportions. But his face is so deceptive that it always makes people feel that he should be more of a talented artist.

The facts proved his strength in an unshakable manner, and not only that, but the acute radiculitis that he was said to have suffered from was almost impossible to see from him. What's even more terrifying is that in fact, he has not completely recovered, and in such a situation, he can step by step suppress the super-university-level trace Keigo into the disadvantage.

Coupled with the brutal ball style that deprives the five senses, it is definitely enough to make people shudder.

Maki had obtained exclusive information from Shinobu Yushi when he was doing his pre-match homework, and he was able to recover to the point where he is now, and even has the credit of Keigo Keibe. Because of Keigo Hinobube's "meticulous" assistance to Kunimitsu Hizuka, he seems to have only pulled a small line for Yukimura Seiichi, so many people don't know it. It may sound like a small effort, but if it weren't for the wealth of the Tracebe family, the opportunity for this top expert diagnosis could be just around the corner.

This is like healing Achilles' heel and forging an invincible enemy himself.

The thought of a sword and a shadow flashed through Maji's mind, but she quickly laughed and realized that she seemed to have inadvertently fallen into a conspiracy theory way of thinking.

This is just a high school student's match, not a life-for-life duel.

Sympathizing with each other to provide medical help is not an act of self-defeating Virginia.

What's more, for Keigo Keibe, his future on clay is slim, and it is likely that after high school, he and Yukimura Seiichi will not be able to meet again on the official court. In this way, it is not so much that he has created a strong enemy for himself that is difficult to defeat, but rather that he is adding to the blockage of Tezuka-kun, who is his idiot.

Because these two are likely to compete in the future World Open.

"Lihai is a big winner! 5-4! ”

Seiichi Yukimura won another game.

His soft violet hair was about to be soaked with sweat, and it seemed that even if he was temporarily ahead, he couldn't get any advantage from Keigo Jibe. In the interval between the games, he first exhaled a long breath, and then raised his head to look at Keigo Jibe, his gaze seemed to contain the power of a sea boiling landslide.

The last time Maki saw Seiichi Yukimura on the campus attached to Tatsukai University, she thought that it seemed that it would be difficult for this gentle minister to suppress the rather hard-nosed Deputy Minister Sanada, but at this moment this thought disappeared from her head cleanly.

Once he stands on the field, he is a well-deserved pride of the sky.

Keigo Keibe didn't show any panic and quickly tied the score again. The duel between these two can be called the highest level of high school at the moment, and ordinary people can probably only intuitively feel "so powerful", but because of Sakaki Taro's guidance these days, Maki can gradually find some ways to find out, and from her observations, Keigo's current style of play is conservative and cautious, and it is obvious that he has realized that the situation of the game is not in his favor.

He has the best insight and the most accurate way to see the situation.

In the process of the original long-lasting and violent tug-of-war, Yukimura Seiichi suddenly seized the opportunity at the last moment, unexpectedly jumped his body, and scored a point with a volley, because the speed was too fast, almost making people have the negative thought that "Keigo Kibe can't react at all". The yellow ball bounced off the ground, and Maki saw Keigo's pupils dilated, and he was indeed forced to let this point be thrown away from his hands.

He held the clap in both hands for about three or four seconds, as if someone had forcibly hammered it into the cross with a nail.

The first time I saw Keigo Jibe forced to do this, Maki had long forgotten his notes, his hands were twisted together, and he didn't notice that his nails had made a shallow mark on the back of his hand, and at this moment, his body was unconsciously leaning forward, showing a picture that could jump up at any time.

"Are you afraid he'll lose?"

Sakaki Taro's voice was low, and his tone did not fluctuate at all, and Maki was in the same position as Keigo Keibe in the arena at this time, and reacted vividly for a few seconds before he suddenly looked at Sakaki Taro who was sitting next to her, he was still holding his arms and moving like a mountain, as if he was not worried about Keigo Jibe's situation at all.

"Of course." She first subconsciously said the most fundamental thoughts, because she had more contact with Sakaki Taro these days, and she was not purely restrained in the face of the teacher, "I haven't seen the predecessors of the trace department lose......"

Sakaki Taro was silent for a while, and just when Maki thought he was just talking in passing, Sakaki Taro suddenly turned his gaze to her, "What do you think will happen if Sakakibe loses?" ”

…… Supervising the game is not over yet, are you just destroying your own prestige?

"Lost ......"

The real season stalked a little.,Because the Ice Emperor Academy has won all the way to the present.,She didn't show up in the only game that lost to Lihai in the Kanto Tournament.,So there's really little concept of it.。 Counting her experience in Diguang, she would even think less about this issue.

Maki looked into the field, and while they were talking, Keigo had already returned to the bottom line to defend. He quickly broke free from Yukimura Seiichi's grip and returned to the fight, and although he was still conservative in terms of strategy, no one could completely polish away his pride.

Actually, she wasn't too familiar with Keigo Jibe.

The first meeting was extremely hasty, and although there was a lot of contact in the ministry later, Keigo Keibe was also the same as Seishiro Akaji, and he hardly gave her any special care in the manager's position tasks, so that a semester had passed, and the identity of Maji's relationship was not revealed.

Maki could feel his kindness, for example, the last time she just said that she was too tired to eat pasta, Keigo Keibe carefully found a Michelin-starred Italian restaurant to deliver the food to her door. But compared to the shinobu brothers who have been mixed up since childhood, and even Seijuro Akaji, who only met on holidays, Keigo Trace is undoubtedly a stranger, because in the first fourteen years of her life, they didn't know each other at all.

But since she talks about Keigo Kibe, she will inevitably associate him with Seijuro Akaji, who she is familiar with.

The same family is from a famous family, and the same talent.

- "I never know defeat. ”

Sure enough, it was unimaginable that Seishiro Akaji would lose.

The inevitability of victory is a crazy obsession that almost every Akaji is born with. Zhenji felt that it was probably her mother's indifference and calmness that diluted this, and coupled with her limited talent, she might be an outlier. But the unforgettable failure is almost in her blood.

Her ambitious grandfather, Hideki Akaji, was defeated in the battle between the brothers and swept away like a lost dog.

Not only did he lose money and power, but he also lost the wife he had so much to marry.

Zhenji tilted his head, "...... Will it crash? ”

She didn't know if her grandfather had collapsed to the point of wanting to commit suicide after her grandmother's death, but the second half of his life was indeed completely cut off from his previous life, which was equivalent to completely denying his former self.

"He's used to losing, don't worry."

Sakaki Taro spoke in a calm tone, as if talking about a small issue such as "How many classes did Akutagawa Jiro sleep in today".

Zhenji couldn't be calm, and reached out to cover his mouth: "Who?" Overseer, who are you talking about? ”

The corners of Sakaki Taro's lips, which had always been tightly pursed, were slightly hooked at this moment, "Traces." ”

"Hey, heyβ€”β€”????"

…… How can it be? The virtue of the predecessor of the trace department, oh no, no, it is not gorgeous, how can it not be like an inspirational model, he clearly has a face that the uncle is going to hang!!

Sakaki Taro crossed his hands on his knees and spoke to Maki distractedly, "He grew up in England, at least in sports like tennis, Asians really can't compete with Europeans, especially when they are children, the gap is very obvious." ”

Sensing Maki's puzzled look, he explained, "I'm Keigo's mother, Arissa's classmate, and you should have seen her. When Keigo was a child, I taught him to play tennis. ”

That Japanese-British mixed beauty, of course Maji remembers, so calculated, Keigo Jibe only has a quarter of British blood.

She really didn't think of this, unlike Seijuro Akaji, Keigo Kibe grew up in a heterogeneous environment.

Sakaki Taro didn't continue to play tennis, and instead talked about Keigo Keibe's other troubles, "He wasn't smart when he was a kid, but it hasn't changed that he is so strong." When he grew up, he was indeed more talented than his father, but there were also things that he was not good at, even if he could learn Latin, but before he came to Japan to go to school, he was still very poor in the national language test, and he almost had to repeat a grade. ”

…… Repetition?

In other words, Keigo Keibe may have been a student of the same level as her???

Once you accept this setting...... It's really emotional, especially when he wants to shout that the picture is too beautiful!!

Thinking of this, Zhenji held back a smile and wrinkled her lips, and the original action of leaning forward also became leaning on the back of the chair, supporting the bench with both hands, and swaying both feet, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Huh? Is that so? I finally proved that I was related to Brother Jingwu, because I wasn't smart when I was a kid, and of course, I'm not smart now. ”

Her tone was relaxed, and her tone fluctuated with her mood, already a bit like a girl who was coquettish to her elders.

Sakaki Taro gave her a silent look, flashed a barely visible smile, and once again locked his gaze on Keigo Keibe.

He did not explain the meaning of the so-called victory or defeat as if it were reasonable.

The current Keigo is the perfect proof.

No one could defeat him.

Maki also picked up the pen again, jotting down every subtle action he could see that a mechanical camera couldn't record to remember. She will still hold the pen tightly when Keigo Jibe is in a hard battle, because she has let go of her previous attachments, and at this moment she can sink into the ups and downs of the competition wholeheartedly.

Because of the reason of "crazy man", Maji's lively temperament has long inquired about the gossip of Keigo and Kunimitsu Tezuka, and of course he also knows that the famous double-minister battle in junior high tennis, Keigo Keigo won with a protracted battle strategy that almost abolished Kunimitsu Tezuka's arm, but many people did not understand it, and could not recognize his unscrupulous ruthlessness.

Whether it's Kunimitsu Tezuka's arm or Seiichi's illness in Yukimura, that's an established fact before the game.

Once you stand on this arena, you will definitely go all out, and the sword will be pointed straight ahead.

It is precisely because all the qiΔ“ is condensed in this small stadium that it has more and more charm that makes people fall.

A sharp whistle sounded.

β€œ7-6! Lihai Grand Attachment - Yukimura Seiichi wins! ”

Keigo Keibe walked slowly to the net with his left hand in his hand, and Yukimura Seiichi's movements were not much faster than him, and both of them were almost exhausted, but they still used this last strength when shaking hands, and sounded the clarion call for the next decisive battle with strength.

"Ice Emperor! Ice Emperor! ”

At this time, the cry of the support group still did not stop, although everyone's voices were close to hoarse, they still had the power to break through the sky.

At the subsequent award ceremony, Keigo Jibe received the runner-up trophy on behalf of the Ice Emperor Academy.

On the way back to the lounge,As the manager,Maji wanted to carefully observe everyone's reactions.,But the phone rang.,She still remembered that Huang Se reminded her yesterday.,Today is Haichang High School vs. Tonghuang School Park.,Immediately pressed the answer button.。

After connecting, there was silence for about four or five seconds.

Just over there, there was a cry from Huang Se's little classmate, and he sobbed and said:

"Little Plum...... We lost ......"

Then there was a burst of wow wow wow.

It may be that the voice of the earpiece is a little loud.,There are a few people here in the Ice Emperor School Park who turned their heads to look at her.,Zhenji took advantage of the situation and swept it.,Found that there really wasn't anyone on his side who was crying like a little classmate Huang Se.,Of course,He may just be howling on the phone.。

Zhen Ji said calmly: "Well, we also lost." ”

"Huh? Is that so...... Sure enough, you were right to call Xiaomeizi......"

"Ah??? What do you mean? You're going crazy next time you want to fail???? ”

"It's not! No! I'm not...... Belch...... That one...... Find some comfort...... That ......" Seeing that the little expert in making up the class actually wanted to tear himself up, Huang Se's little classmate began to use his only IQ quickly, "Anyway, I'm sorry, Xiaomeizi!! Don't abandon me!! The next photo album will give you a bunch of gifts for free, okay!! ”

Ryo Huang Se is too desperate to make up for his handsome life.

Maki pursed her lips and smiled again, hearing "we" from Ryota Kuse's mouth was already very rare, not "I lost", but "We lost".

It seems that she is not the only one who has been captured by this charm.

Maki looked up at the sky and said softly:

"It's great to be able to come to the Ice Emperor."

The words seemed a little clueless as she spoke on the phone, and the sunlight shone on her eyelashes, as if frozen in place because of the whisper. Shinobu walked half a step behind her, and in addition to hearing that she was talking to Diguang's teammates on the phone, he also happened to hear her words clearly.

He also said this sentence, on the first day of coming to the Ice Emperor, after the first battle with Keigo of the Trace.

A question that I couldn't figure out before, the reason why Zhenji, who has always been throwing away, actually chose to become a manager again, and now I suddenly understand something. He is very familiar with Zhenji, and others may think that she is just barely passing the sports grades, which is not unusual for many girls to be like this. But in fact, her mother was frail and sickly when she was young, and she had many surgeries, and Zhenji was much healthier in comparison, and there were few minor illnesses, but she couldn't try it at all when she ran and exercised vigorously on the field.

But she always finds a workaround.

What puzzled Shinobu was not the familiar change, but her stay.

will be fascinated by some kind of charm, and will silently stop for it.

Out of thin air.
