Ice Emperor Tennis Club Training Hall.

If it weren't for the fact that Akutagawa Jiro didn't sleep but trained hard, no one would have believed it.

When Shinobu received the coach's notice to form a doubles with Akutagawa Jiro, Shinobu actually had some resistance in his heart, in Shinobi's opinion, even if Cilang's physical fitness was the best in the Ice Emperor except for Lin, but a person who has not been very serious about participating in training, how high can his ceiling be?

But this scene in front of him completely reversed Shinobi's perception of Cilang, this guy not only does not match his nickname "sheep", but also hides a terrifying existence under his cheerful smile. From the beginning of this training camp,Shinobu witnessed that Cilang never fell asleep again from the beginning to the end of the training,Even if the opportunity to meditate on the racket in his hand has been given up,The whole person is obsessed looking for new ball skills、Breakthrough opportunities,The only feeling with his partner is that this guy can play in front of the net.,Most of the balls and even some balls that shouldn't be fought back in front of the net in principle will be intercepted by Cilang using endless small means.,Leave yourself more room to prepare, It's a worthy partner.

As soon as each training session was over, Jiro would fall asleep on time like clockwork, and many times even slept in the locker room all night. Thinking back to that scene, he couldn't cry or laugh, picked up the kettle and threw it at Cilang, who was sitting on the court and was deep in thought, "Cilang, why did you do this?" ”

"Because tennis is fun" Cilang said to Shinobu with an excited expression, "Lin really didn't lie to me, I didn't think I could meet an interesting opponent before, but I was too weak, when I am getting stronger, I can meet more and more interesting opponents, see more interesting skills, think about it and feel excited, don't you say, forbearance?" ”

Is this so, interest, what is the surprising answer, after taking a sip of water, what is the motivation for moving forward, the desire for victory? Catching up with your teammates? Hawkers,It's all there.,The most important thing is to see the unexpected look and the appearance of being hit by Qianya's prodigal goods.。

"Eh, Shinobu, you said that if I learned to walk the tightrope in front of the net, would I be able to combine it with your spin and smash to make a combo with its own trap?"

Shinobu's thoughts of missing his Kansai partner were disrupted by Jiro's excited proposal, and his thoughts couldn't keep up with Jiro's rhythm at all, "Marui? Tightrope? ”

"Marui is the guy in the doubles of Lihai University that the coach showed us a few days ago, he is the idol of all the players in front of the net, not only me, but also the people of Mukaidake, they are all striving for him, I really want to see his tricks with my own eyes. Walking the tightrope is the way the ball rolls over the net."

"You mean to force your opponent to put the ball in front of the net with a topspin or smash, and then use a tightrope to kill them?"

“bingo！！” Jirou gave Shinobu a thumbs up.

"Question number one, what is your success rate in imitating tightrope walking? Second, what if the opponent strikes back, just like Lin, you can fight back after you land? Shinobu touched his chin, and remembered the way Lin hit back at the zero-style chipping ball called Tezuka that day in his mind, and he felt a chill in his heart.

"My own words are eighty percent, the bottom line is that even if you fail, you won't concede a goal, but Lin can do this?" Jiro seemed to be taken aback, and then he was attracted by Shinobu's account of what happened that day, "This does have to be considered, but I care more about what kind of zero chipping ball you said, and the white whale that will come back, but it's a pity that it would be nice if I was there, oh my God, why did I sleep at that time"

Watching Cilang roll on the ground with regret, he couldn't help but cry and laugh, "There will be a chance, after this training camp, we have two training matches, one with Qingxue, one with the mountain blow, it is estimated that you will not be able to see the excitement by then."

Cilang grunted and sat up suddenly, "So let's go back to how to improve our own strength, when do you say we will be able to reach the same tone that Lin said, although I know that this is the ladder that must be reached in the national competition, but I still have no clue." "Besides, we only have the Australian formation now, and we can endure it, can't you practice on the Internet and engage in a double-net formation?" ”

"I've been thinking about it, I really haven't touched the skills of the front of the net before, I have a headache"

"I don't care, I don't care, you come on, don't hold back"

"Cilang, you bastard, I should say this"

————————————————————————

In the office, Coach Sakaki looked at the latest data brought by Hayashi and Taki-nosuke today, and pondered the final choice. Lin reclined on the sofa next to him, and the weight-bearing clothes on his body were more of a test after the training, and now Lin has entered a state of being able to sit and never stand, and to lie down and never sit.

"Our singles don't have to worry at all, singles No. 1 traces, singles No. 2 me, singles No. 3 has moonlight seniors, the order of the three people depends on the opponent adjustment, self-confidence is not weaker than any team, mainly doubles is the headache, now doubles No. 1 is Renzu and Cilang, doubles No. 2 is Yue Renliang, birch I want to be a substitute, as long as the imitation is successful, singles and doubles can be switched, the key lies in the problem of our doubles tacit understanding, you must know that the same tone is only the basic level of the national competition, Such cooperation will not be enough in the future. ”

"Lin" Yuezhi Moonlight interjected, "As far as I know, there are very few doubles in the last national competition that can achieve the same tone, and even I suspect that there are almost none, what you said is too exaggerated", Taki-Ogi-nosuke nodded desperately on the side, this is not scientific at all!

"It's you who are too naïve, these two years are a golden generation of geniuses!! You look at what is known, the Ice Emperor appeared on me, the traces of the department, the shinobi, the Cirou and then count the birch land, the Tezuka of Qingxue, Fuji, the pair of the golden doubles, the mountain blowing does not mention the doubles, the singles of the Yakutsu, the triumvirate of Lihaida, the minister of the Four Heavenly Treasure Temple and the cousin of the shinobi, I don't know that there are more hidden geniuses and monsters, can it really be measured with last year's data? ”

Rhetorical questions again and again made the other three people in the office fall silent again.

"Outside the country, just like some of my skills, there are deeper realms waiting to be discovered, and I can't share them myself, so how to say it, what I like, familiar, and good at has become a sense of tennis, in short, it is a mysterious and mysterious thing, after all, there is still a mountain of professional players above our heads."

Coach Sakaki looked at Lin who had stood up excitedly in front of him, watching the theme run farther and farther, and always felt that something was wrong but didn't come out, so he had to say the idea he thought of first, and pulled the topic back to solving doubles, "I will invite some professional players to teach in the near future, you don't have to worry about this, but the tacit understanding of doubles can only rely on daily training, basic training and overcoming difficulties together, you can't let them eat and live together for training, right?" ”

"Why not?"

"Huh??"

Yue Renliang, who was mocking each other on the way home, was busy waking up Cilang's Shinobu in the locker room, and Cilang shivered almost at the same time in his sleep, Shinobu subconsciously looked around, except for Cilang who was asleep on the ground, there was no one, "What's going on with this palpitation, I always feel that something terrible will happen." ”
