The side chapter, light feathers, flying chapters, eight (80), blackened

The game resumes.

But this time, Chu Yue and Ayano swapped. Chu Yue stood at the back and watched, while Ayano stepped forward to play.

The opposite side was still the same as in the first half, with Tagajo standing at the back and letting Connie play alone.

It's a doubles, but now it's a singles...... But this game was not that strict in the first place, so no one said anything.

Because he was standing at the back, Chu Yue couldn't see Ayano's eyes, only Ayano's back. But the two people on the other side could see clearly. Connie's feelings are a little unpredictable, but her expression is defiant. As for Tagajo......

When her eyes glanced at Tagacheng, Chu Yue realized that Tagacheng also looked towards her. The eyes of the two people suddenly collided, and Tagacheng was stunned for a moment, while Chu Yue just smiled.

Chu Yue's friendliness made Tagacheng wonder for a moment, but he immediately reacted: he was laughing at himself. Obviously, I was thinking about single-handedly connie just now, but I was defeated by connie.

The game continued. Compared to whether this match is doubles or singles, everyone is obviously more interested in who is stronger Ayano or Connie.

Soon there were results, and it should be that Connie was stronger.

Although Chu Yue noticed that Ayano's eyes had a tendency to turn black, in the face of a player of Connie's level, Ayano still failed to gain an advantage.

The reason is simple, it has been three years since Ayano last played badminton seriously. During these three years of idleness, Ayano's abilities in all aspects have decreased. Facing Connie, who is in the limelight, has a great physical advantage, and is also a world champion, Ayano can only regret losing.

The first game ended 21-18. Although he lost the first game, both Chu Yue and Kentaro who fought on the sidelines gained an important message: that is, Ayano should be weak to the short ball in front of the net.

Chu Yue could also guess the reason. The long ball will give Ayano more time to react, and her previous tennis experience is enough for Ayano to have enough time to react. But the short ball is a great test of reflexes and physical speed, which is almost a fatal flaw for Ayano now.

During the first break, both sides returned to their respective teams.

Tagajo sat directly in a chair and fiddled with the string on his tennis racket, while Connie leaned against the wall and drank water to rehydrate.

Fortunately, Shiba Hime is a good captain, and when he saw this scene, he came over with a towel and pressed it on Tagajo's head: "Thank you for your hard work, set off Connie." ”

"It also sets off...... Didn't she win easily alone? Tagajo said.

Shiba Hime also looked at Connie: "That's it for now." ”

On the other side, Chu Yue and Ayano returned to the team, and Riko and the others hurriedly came and handed over the water.

"That's amazing, kid." Chu Yue said.

"However, thanks to Chu Yue, you." Riko comforted Chu Yue and said, "If it were me, I would definitely not be as good as Chu Yue." ”

"Chu Yue, Yu Saki." At this time, Kentaro came over and said, "Let's play the second game." ”

"That's ...... All right? Ying Lingna said.

"It's meant to be doubles, right?" Kentaro said, "If you can't win, what's the use of fighting for face?" ”

"Hehehe." Chu Yue suddenly smiled, and then said, "According to your words, as long as you can win and you don't break the rules, you can use any means, right?" ”

Kentaro was stunned for a moment, but still nodded: "You're right. ”

"Ayano." Chu Yue said to Ayano, "Let's cheer together." ”

"Hmm." Ayano didn't know what she was thinking, she just nodded and didn't say anything else.

"Well, you're good." Kentaro said, "The next game is to give up the offense and defend together." ”

"Defending together?" Chu Yue asked.

"The most difficult thing to deal with in Connie's offense is the high-point smash. In order to deal with this move, you have to stand like this. Kentaro said, showing the schematic diagram drawn on the notebook to Chu Yue and Yu Saki.

On the picture, Chu Yue stands in front of the net and is only responsible for the short ball in front of the net, while Ayano stands at the back and is responsible for the long ball in a larger area.

Chu Yue understood at a glance that Kentaro's tactic was to promote his strengths and avoid weaknesses, and combine the advantages of the two to fight.

"Understood." Chu Yue said.

"What about you, Hasaki?" Kentaro asked Ayano.

Ayano nodded.

The next thing is everyone's cheering and cheering, and then the second game begins.

Connie also seemed to see some clues, took the ball and said, "In that case, as you wish!" ”

As she spoke, Connie sent a long-range ball.

After Ayano in the backcourt hit him, Connie immediately jumped high and made a smash.

The ball still fell in the backfield, but Ayano didn't seem to react and couldn't receive it.

Then three balls in a row, each time almost the same touch. Chu Yue barely received the ball in the front court, and all the balls were played to Ayano by Connie.

However, when it came time for the fourth ball, Ayano finally found her groove and hit Connie's ball back. Moreover, it is still played in the front court.

Connie, who smashed in the backcourt, really couldn't catch up with the ball in the front court and lost a point.

Then the next two balls were the same as this one - Connie's balls were all caught by Ayano, and the score became 3-3.

In the fourth ball, Connie finally stopped blindly targeting Ayano, but hit the ball to the front. As soon as Chu Yue saw that the opportunity had arrived, she jumped up directly in front of the net, just like Connie, and slammed it fiercely.

"3 to 4!" The referee announced the score.

Connie gasped and reached out to touch the sweat from her forehead.

“nice！ Chu Yue! Yu shouted.

"Keep it up like that!" Riko also said.

"Come on!" Hayama also cheered for the two.

Connie finally sensed Chu Yue's trickiness and glanced at Chu Yue. However, it was only a glance. Connie still stubbornly believes that she only needs to target Ayano alone. But take it even more seriously!

The game continued, and soon, the score became

Those who watched the game now understand what was going on.

However, to everyone's shock, who is Ayano who can defend against Connie's attack?

An official member of Frederick's tennis team said: "Cornie seems to be reluctant. ”

The teammate next to him said: "She did it herself, what do you sympathize with her." ”

"True, though...... But ......"

At this time, the score of the field has become 6-11 match point, and there is a halftime. Relying on this tactic, Chu Yue and Ayano got a 5-point lead.

But Chu Yue knew that Kitakomachi was leading not only in terms of scores, but also in terms of physical strength.

No matter how good Connie's physical strength is, one and a half has passed, so it should be very tiring to face two people at the same time, right?

And on Kitakomachi's side, in the first game, Chu Yue and Ayano played alternately, and the two of them played together in this half, and the physical consumption was only half of that of Connie, and the physical advantage was too great.

Frederick was a soprano, and Coney was pinching her calf with a towel. I just jumped very high all the time, and the muscles here are very depleted.

"Do you still want to insist on this situation?" Shiba asked.

"Didn't you say I'd let myself play on my own?" Connie said, "Don't talk any more. ”

"That's the case, but I think you're exhausted." Shiba Hime said.

"......" Connie didn't speak.

The second half of the second game continued to begin.

This time, Connie's attack became even more ferocious. If it were an ordinary player, under an attack like Connie, I am afraid that he would not be able to score a single goal.

However, in the face of Chu Yue, who was not weaker than Connie's physical advantage, and Ayano, who was already very strong, he could only narrow the score to 18-20.

As long as Chu Yue and Ayano score one more point, they can win the second game.

Ayano kept saying in her heart: This ball, you must win, you must win!

Another high-point smash! Ayano caught it!

But......

No one noticed that after Ayano caught the ball, the string on the tennis racket broke.

No, there was one person who noticed - Chu Yue. When the string breaks, the sound of the ball becomes a little strange. This extremely subtle change in sound could only be heard by Chu Yue's body that had been strengthened by divine power.

At this moment, Chu Yue said in her heart: The next ball can't be picked up by Ayano!

However, when she saw Connie's expression, Chu Yue continued: This is?

That's right, Connie's physical strength finally reached its limit, and her calves suddenly became uncontrollable at the moment when she was about to jump, and she couldn't jump.

Won?! Chu Yue said in her heart.

No!

The ball was still caught, but it wasn't Konie who caught it, it was Tagajo!

Tagajo should have also noticed the weakness in Connie's legs, and suddenly ran over from the backcourt and caught the ball for Connie!

Moreover, it is still a smash towards the backcourt!

Not good!

Everything happened between the lightning and flint, Chu Yue immediately mobilized her body, ran back to the backcourt as fast as she could, and hit the ball back before Ayano caught the ball!

"What?!" Tagajo didn't react to what was happening for a while.

“！！” Connie and Ayano were also stunned.

And not just these two on the field

"What?!" Kentaro shouted in surprise.

"This ......" Shiba Ji was shocked.

This ball was hit by Chu Yue to the opponent's backcourt, because Connie and Tagajo were both in the frontcourt, so no one took this ball.

After half a ring, the referee reacted:

"Inside! The second game, 18-21! Kitakomachi, Chu Yue and Ayano Hasaki win! ”

There was nothing surprising about the win. The thing that stunned everyone was that just after the last ball, Chu Yue suddenly ran to the backcourt to catch the speed of this ball!

It's so fast!

Everyone didn't react to what happened at all, they only felt that Chu Yue's figure in front of them flickered, and they had already run from the front court to the back court, and then hit the ball back.

After being quiet for a while, Yucai was the first to jump up happily: "Great! ”

Just win the third game and win! And not only the victory of this doubles match, but also the victory of Kita-Komachi!

Chu Yue and Ayano returned to the team, and Kentaro walked over: "Chu Yue, you just now?" ”

"What's wrong?" Chu Yue asked.

"No, you played this ball well, but why don't you give it to Ayano?" Kentaro was a little strange.

"Just look at Ayano's racket." Chu Yue said.

Chu Yue's words drew everyone's attention to Ayano's racket.

On Ayano's racket, there is already a broken string.

"The line is broken?" Nagisa was stunned.

"When?" Riko was surprised.

"That's why Chu Yue went back to pick up the last ball?" Yu said, "Awesome ......"

"......" Kentaro didn't speak, but his heart was even more strange.

It is true that Chu Yue did the right thing, but how did Chu Yue know that the line was broken?

In this case, everyone's attention is on the badminton, except for the badminton player himself, he may not even feel that the string of the badminton racket is broken, how did Chu Yue know?

and the speed that Chu Yue showed for the next ball......

Could it be that Chu Yue really has this ability to surpass ordinary people?

"The third game, it's time to come on!" Ying Lingna said.

Now everyone is cheering for Chu Yue and Ayano, so Kentaro knows that now is not the time to ask this kind of question.

On Frederick's side, after the referee announced the victory, Tagajo scratched his head and said, "Oh, that's a pity." ”

After saying that, he turned around and noticed that Connie's hand was pressing on the soles of her feet.

"Cramps? Want to help? Tagajo asked.

Connie didn't answer Tagajo, limped back to the group, found a chair and sat down.

"Do you want to keep fighting?" Shiba Hime came over and said.

"......" Connie didn't speak.

"Your feet, even if you keep fighting, you can't win, right?" Shiba Hime said.

Connie used too much force in this situation, and her foot was already cramping, even if she continued to fight reluctantly, it was impossible to win, and it was likely to aggravate her foot injury.

"Damn!" Connie clutched her racket tightly.

"If I don't fight, I'll go and tell the referee that we have abstained." Shiba Hime said.

"......" Connie still didn't speak, but she carried her bag and walked outside alone.

"What's wrong?" Tagajo walked over and asked.

"No way." Shiba Hime said, "Let's abstain." ”

"Huh!? Abstention?! Tagajo said in surprise.

Because the sound of Taga Castle was so loud, even the people here in Kita-Komachi heard it.

"They said they wanted to abstain?" Riko said.

"I guess so." Chu Yue said, "On the last ball just now, Connie's foot was already cramping. Even if you barely fight, it won't end well. ”

"But, abstain or something......," Riko said, "can they be replaced like us?" ”

"This game was originally requested by Connie. Now that it's such a result, there's no point in changing people, right? Chu Yue said, "Maybe you will be disgusted by Connie." ”

"Hmm......"

So, just like that, Shiba Hime explained the situation to the referee.

"In the third game, because Frederick abstained, Kita-Komachi, Chuzuki, and Ayano Hasaki won."

In this way, the competition between the schools on both sides is even a victory for Kita-Komachi.

However, neither side showed too much sadness or joy. In the end, Shiba Hime abstained on behalf of Connie, which means that this victory is meaningless.

The competition was over, the sun was about to set, and this time the daytime training time for the group was over.

And then there's ......

Happy overnight time!

Kentaro, who is the person in charge, found his junior again and said to his junior, "I'm sorry, but the student with the wrong gender label is actually not wrong." ”

"It's okay seniors, boys and girls have two separate bedrooms, it's just a matter of moving a futon."

The students from Kitakomachi came to the door of the bedroom, and a group of girls dragged Chu Yue into the girls' bedroom.

In the bedroom, there are already laid bedding. In the girls' bedroom, everyone sat on the futon and chatted.

"I didn't expect Chu Yue to be a girl." Riko said.

"Wow! I forgot to fight with Chu Yue! Nagisa said.

"I've forgotten about it, next time...... "Riko said, "It's been a hard time to stay together, let's have some fun." ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... I didn't expect Chu Yue that you would have such beautiful hair again, and now it's time to make up for you to change your hairstyle during the day! Yoo smiled and came over and played with Chu Yue's hair.

"However, Chu Yue is a girl, so I'm really shocked." Ying Lingna said, "No one at school knows that Chu Yue is a girl?" ”

"The head of our class knows." Chu Yue replied, "It was also after I told her that I got her consent, so I can wear the boys' school uniforms." ”

"Wow! Chu Yue, your hair is so powerful! "Because you are going to change Chu Yue's hairstyle, she takes a comb to comb Chu Yue's hair at this time.

"Really." Together with Yuu, who was preparing to change Chu Yue's hairstyle, there was also Ise Haraku, who also touched Chu Yue's long hair: "It's too smooth." ”

"I would have cut off the ...... if I knew it," Chu Yue underestimated.

"Why cut it off!" You, who was combing Chu Yue's hair, immediately said, "Obviously you have such good hair!" ”

Chu Yue turned her head and ignored You, but happened to see Ayano sitting on the other side without saying a word.

"Ayano?" Chu Yue said, stood up and walked towards Ayano.

"Eh-" Yu Yu, who was combing Chu Yue's hair, screamed, because the comb was still on Chu Yue's hair. But immediately, I saw this comb slide down Chu Yue's hair and fall to the ground, and suddenly grew out of my mouth in surprise: "Wow! ”

Chu Yue came to Ayano's side and asked, "Ayano, do you still care about Connie?" ”

"Chu Yue......" Ayano saw Chu Yue and nodded.

"Hey!" At this time, Riko suddenly pounced on Chu Yue's back, and then said to Ayano: "At this time, I'm going to go to a hot spring!" Hot spring! ”

"Hot springs, that's good." Nagisa also said.

"Are there any hot springs here?" Yuya said, "Great! Empty, let's go! ”

"yes." Null response.

Ying Rena also walked over and said to Ayano, "If you're not happy, don't think about it anymore." Soak in the hot springs and forget about the unhappy things. ”

"That ......" Chu Yue said at this time, "Is it okay if I don't go?" ”

"No way!" The other girls said in unison.

So, a group of girls dragged Chu Yue into the hot spring, stripped off Chu Yue's clothes in the locker room, and carried Chu Yue into the hot spring bathroom.

"Hey, wait, wait!" Despite Chu Yue's constant struggle, she was still stuffed into the hot spring by a group of girls......

"Wow, not only the hair, but Chu Yue's skin is also just right."

"Really, it's so comfortable to the touch!"

"It's so enviable, obviously with such skin and hair, he is actually dressed as a boy! Eat me this trick! ”

"And this breast...... Also...... Hmmm......"

"It's okay, I'll grow up!"

"I didn't care! I really didn't care! Chu Yue cried.

……

There was only one day to stay together, so the next morning, both Kita-Komachi and Frederick Virgen had to leave by bus.

However, Frederick was a tall woman, so there were several buses that left earlier than Kita-Komachi.

Before leaving, Shiba Hime shook Nagisa's hand and said, "Kita-Komachi is really an interesting team. I hope you make it in the high school league. ”

"Needless to say, we will too." Nagisa said.

"When the time comes, let's have another official competition." Shiba Hime said, "Well, goodbye." ”

Chu Yue found Connie and said, "Connie." ”

"Huh?" When Connie saw that it was Chu Yue, her face was a little complicated.

"Can you come over for a moment?" Chu Yue said, "Aya Nai has something to look for you." ”

After speaking, Chu Yue walked directly to the other side.

"......" Connie was silent for a moment, but still followed Chu Yue.

Ayano is on the other side of this row of buses. After Chu Yue brought Connie over, she stood aside.

Although everyone had a great time last night, they only forgot about their troubles for the time being.

Ayano felt that if she didn't ask about these things clearly this time, she didn't know when the next meeting would be.

So, Ayano plucked up the courage to ask, "That...... What is the relationship between you, you and my mother? ”

"There's China, it's my mother." Connie said.

"Sure enough......" Ayano lowered her head.

"Mom, you saved me from being alone." "She taught me how to live." ”

"Mom, she, she ......" Ayano wanted to say something, but couldn't say it.

But Connie seemed to know what Ayano was going to say, so she took a picture out of her arms and stretched it out in front of Ayano.

"This is ......" Ayano was stunned.

This photo was seen by Ayano three years ago.

In the photo, Connie still has short hair, holding a world championship trophy in her hand, kissing her adoptive mother with happiness, and Hasaki has Chinatsu's cheeks.

And there is a doting expression on the part, an expression of wanting to refuse and welcome, enjoying the love of this child.

Connie shook off her long blonde hair and said, "My hairstyle when I have short hair is not bad." ”

"You ......" Ayano trembled, but couldn't speak.

"Mom is coming to Japan soon." Connie continued, "She's the person closest to me. It's the same for you, right? ”

“……”

"Even if you have a companion...... "Connie glanced at Chu Yue, and then continued: "Without my mother's approval, there is no point in playing badminton, right?" ”

In Ayano's mind, things flashed one by one when she was a child.

"Why ......" At this time, Chu Yue suddenly spoke: "Why, there is Qianxia who wants to leave without saying a word?" ”

Connie glanced at Chu Yue with some surprise, and then said, "Who knows." I probably think that my sister's badminton is too bad. ”

After speaking, Connie looked at Ayano again: "You said yes, sister?" ”
