Chapter 25: First Arrival, First Come, First Come!
The draw of the Kanto competition still had a slight impact on the Ice Emperor to a certain extent, in the words of the coach, the root cause is still a kind of psychological unconfidence, of course, except for Lin, except for some unhappiness, all the thoughts are used on how to prepare a "surprise" for Lihai University, in recent days, he has been addicted to various tactical offenses and defenses, and the whole person gives people a sense of gloom and compassion.
After school, Lin walked on the way to Minamijiro's house, because of thinking about how to break this five-five situation, he was a little absent-minded along the way, and once he almost hit a tree directly, but fortunately, a call came from behind to pull Lin back to reality from the imaginary in his mind "Lin?!" ”
"Oh, it's Long, how are you doing?"
"We're okay, the first place we met in the lottery a few days ago was an ordinary school, and there was basically no difficulty, but you Ice Emperor, the battle with the king of Lihai University has spread throughout Kanto. What's wrong, is it a headache? ”
Lin noticed that Long was carrying a lunch box in his right hand and a cake in his left hand, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yes, what are you?" ”
"Oh, I'm going to celebrate that guy's birthday in Akutsu today, do you want to come along? That guy doesn't seem to care, maybe he's waiting? Long saw through Yakutsu's tone, and laughed at this old friend who has played since he was a child, "This guy, with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, speaks very hard, and his heart is actually gentler than anyone else." ”
After the battle of that day, Long, Yakutsu, Shinobu and themselves slowly formed a small circle, although they came from different schools, they were likely to become opponents, but it did not prevent several people from helping and friendship with others, Lin thought that it was indeed his own mistake, this kind of thing should take the initiative to understand, so after discussing with Long, the two first went back to Lin's residence and chose a fan, on which was a beautiful picture of the rivers and mountains as a gift, and then set off to Yakutsu's house together.
When he arrived at Yakutsu's house, he found that Yakutsu had not returned, and Aunt Yuki, Yakutsu's mother, learned that a new friend celebrated Yakutsu's birthday, and she didn't like Lin, so she brought all kinds of food that could be taken out to Lin, which made Ryu cry out and make Auntie laugh. By the way, Akutsu's father worked in other places, and he and his mother were the only two people in the family, selling some fruits and vegetables to make a living.
Aunt Yuki is a very gentle person, although she speaks in a loud voice, she gives people a kind of firmness that cannot be refuted, not seeing her with her own eyes, and hearing her aunt mention the embarrassment of Akutsu, who would have thought that the fierce and vicious generation of "Nioh" outside would be a very filial and obedient baby at home?
"Mom, I'm back" After a while, the protagonist of the birthday party appeared, and after seeing Lin Helong, he just said "Cut, one more move", but anyone can see the irrepressible smile and surprise on that face, the aunt is cooking in the kitchen to leave space for the three to talk, and the topic returns to this Kanto competition after the three guys laugh.
Compared to Qingxue, who has nothing to do with himself, Yamabuki has entered the group of death where the Ice Emperor and Lihai Da are located this time, although the opponent in the first battle is very average, but sooner or later it will clash with the winner between the two, and there is really no way to stay out of it. From Yakuzu's personal point of view, Yakujin definitely didn't want to fight with Lin, knowing that there was a certain gap between himself and Lin, but from the perspective of the whole school, Yakujin felt that compared to the Ice Emperor, the overall strength gap between Lihai and Yamabuki was greater, so he felt that he hoped that the Ice Emperor could win Lihai Da.
"Now the situation is like this, in a five-five situation, there is a possibility that the Jedi will turn the tables on that side." Lin shared his current situation with the two, so that the two of them called themselves perverts, and had a new understanding of the heritage of the old strong school.
Akutsu didn't disappoint Lin either, "If there is no room for improvement in strength, let's make a fuss about it psychologically." The reason why Lihai University is called the king is that everyone in it is the momentum that I take for granted to win, the Ice Emperor is still a little worse in this area, and when he really goes on the field, it is the brave who meets on a narrow road to win, and there is no second possibility. ”
"That's why I have a headache, I don't know how Lihai did it in person."
"How else can you do it, win the championship," Long continued, "It's better to be a challenger mentality, so that at least you won't be nervous or play abnormally." ”
At this time, Lin suddenly envied his future teammate Hiyoshiruo, who was a first-class stick, which sounded like just a mantra, but how many people could take it as a goal and work hard for it?
The three of them played tennis in the backyard for a while, and Lin and Takashi got up and left in a hurry, and Aunt Yuki smiled and asked Lin Duo to come and walk, making Yakutsu a fuss about love again.
Saying goodbye to Takashi, Hayashi went straight to Minamijiro's house, except for Nanako, the master was not at home. Lin stayed alone in the meditation room, his mind was full of the picture just now, the authorities were fascinated by the bystanders, it was nothing more than this truth, every word of Akutsu was taken out and savored, and his opinion was indeed unique.
The first one to come back was not Nanjiro who Lin was looking forward to, but he hadn't seen Oh Echizen Ryuya for a long time, the two of them since Lin apprenticed, the chess opponent will meet Liangcai, and the favorability of the two people who have played against each other has risen sharply, and now it has almost reached the point of talking about everything.
After understanding the whole ins and outs, Long Ya directly pulled Lin to the court and told everything with a racket. Without the slightest preparation, the shot is similar to the combo of Tachibana Jiping's trick storm ball, and the flying tennis ball has multiple phantoms, which is already very incredible, and the normal person's idea must be to find the true body of the ball from it, Lin No, he directly and the phantom will change all the four balls to shoot back, but the same texture of the four still surprised Lin, and secretly glad that he made the most correct choice.
"Is that okay? The level is good, Lin "Long Ya hit back four more with his backhand, this time the ball became six, Lin has already begun to be in a hurry, and after barely hitting back, his body lost the ability to fight back due to being in a state of failure, and was directly scored by Long Ya with a smash.
"Well, it's not bad, my limit is eight, but the upper limit of this move is far more than that, or we are too weak."
Lin suddenly had a guess in his heart, and asked softly, "U17?" ”
Long Ya glanced at it, and didn't speak, which meant acquiescence.
I understand what you mean, all the confusion, lack of self-confidence comes from the weakness of strength, can't you stop chasing higher, it's really endless.
Long Ya looked at Lin who was emotional, and didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to tell him, "Coach Saito is very interested in you, and so is Coach Mifune, you haven't gone yet, and the two have already quarreled a few times over the route of your development." ”
Lin didn't seem to hear Long Ya's words, threw up the tennis ball in his hand, let go of the restraints of his whole body, and followed the feeling of shouting with his body, that kind of longing, "Touch!" ”
A straight ball without any technique, not even spin, was nailed to a wall around the tennis court, leaving a huge dent and the tennis ball was already burning.
Looking at the silhouette of Lin leaving, Long Ya seemed to understand something, "It's a ball that is completely sent out by instinct, this is your answer?" Forest? ”
"Can't wait to see you at U17"
