Chapter 276: Sports Festival
On October 19, Inaba High School held the opening ceremony of the sports festival in the early morning of Tuesday.
For this news, some people are looking forward to it, such as Mizushima in Class B for a year.
Some people were caught off guard, for example, they gradually forgot the purpose of practicing badminton after school every day, and began to develop a new hobby, Arisa.
Although some people didn't pay attention to the progress of the relevant events at all, they also breathed a sigh of relief in another sense - such as Li Wu, who was anxious in the past two days.
The outside is misty, but the gymnasium is even a little stuffy because of the gathering of young people with strong blood.
The seats of the boy and girl were distinct, and when Li Wu turned his head, he saw the figure of Hoshikawa Aoi in the navy blue uniform skirt that slipped next to him.
She was lying on her shoulder next to her, not knowing what she was talking about, and occasionally showing an angry expression, while the latter's expression shifted back and forth between helplessness and surprise, looking very amused.
At this moment, a ball of paper crossed the heads of the crowd and struck at him as swiftly as a flying hidden weapon.
Li Wu raised his hand to catch it, looking for who dared to carry out the plot.
Hikari waved at him in the group of girls in Class D, and next to him was an apologetic smile, as if to say that he was embarrassed that he couldn't stop her Shiratori Maki.
He opened the paper ball, and on it was a spell of mystery written in Hori Rin, and a heart was drawn at the end.
It's cute, but he's going to throw it back.
Before the implementation, Yamama Arisa moved to the side, stopping Li Wu's plan to retaliate.
She glanced back and forth at them to warn of this audacious cross-class fight.
First, the principal took the stage to speak, and then it was Rika Teraya, who had just taken over as student president.
Finally, with the chorus of the school song, the sports festival officially began.
Because he received the task of the ambulance team, Li Wu did not have to wait in the stands, and could swing around the playground.
Events such as the 50-meter and 100-meter sprints were scheduled to take place at the beginning, the athletes took their places at the starting line, the school broadcast changed from the rousing background music to the commentary of the broadcasting department, and the members of the information department held heavy cameras and waited on the side to take pictures.
Tsubasa Mizushima also competed in the 50-meter race in Class B in the first year, but in the end he lost by a narrow margin to a student in the track and field club.
His expression of frustration when he crossed the finish line in the second place was captured on the spot by Riyu Miyashiro, and later became a widely circulated meme on the Internet.
The victor took a breath and suddenly glanced at him as he passed by the other members of the ambulance team and looked at the lively Li Wu.
"This student, your training method is very effective, have you considered joining our club?"
"What training method?"
Li Wu was puzzled.
"That's what our minister saw that day...... However, the Nile crocodile may be a little easier to find than a girlfriend who runs fast, hahaha. ”
He patted him on the shoulder heartily, left vague words and walked away.
Although the 50-meter halberd sank into the sand, in the next 100-meter race, Shinhiro Teraya, who represented Class B for the first year, won the first place, and the broadcast department also praised his amazing performance.
"Ninja! That way of moving with your hands behind your back is a ninja! It's the first time I've seen this kind of running in reality! I think that's the president's brother, right? What do you think of his outstanding performance? ”
"Well, I feel that there is still some room for improvement in purity."
"That's a kind of evaluation that can only be heard in fighting comics......"
It seems that Rika Teraya is also in the broadcast room, and when she heard her voice, Teraya Mahiro clasped her hands unhappily.
After that, there were some events such as the long jump shot put, and it was the turn of the 4x400m relay.
The men's championship trophy was lifted by Class B in Year 2 and soon moved on to the women's final.
Hoshikawa Aoi stood relaxed on the last stick of the runway, raised his hands and stretched out.
"The athlete looks confident, do you have any predictions for the outcome?"
Li Wu held his palms weakly, as if he was holding a microphone to harass her.
"Go to the finish line and wait for my victory!"
She pointed at the non-existent camera and gestured with a V-shaped hand, "By the way, help me buy a bottle of orange soda, I want to be cold." ”
"As part of the ambulance crew, I can't leave my post without permission."
Hoshikawa Aoi looked at him and didn't speak.
"But when it comes to a conflict with your responsibilities as a boyfriend, you have to prioritize the latter's identity."
Li Wumian changed his face without changing his face.
A wisp of white smoke drifted from the muzzle of the starting pistol, marking the start of the game.
Of the four classes that made it to the finals, Class B temporarily relegated to second place in one year, but when Ryoko Aoki handed over to the second baseman, she fell behind to the bottom of the line, and when the third person took over, she began to go toe-to-toe with the last place.
The shouts and cheers in the stands began to be mixed with the insignificant sighs of the students of Class B, after all, in this situation, it was almost difficult to turn the tables almost expecting a miracle, and even the runner in charge of the third stick had already accepted his fate, and handed the baton in his hand to Aoi Hoshikawa, who was waiting for him.
The broadcast department explained passionately: "We see that Class A, which has been ranked first for three years from the beginning, still maintains the lead, and the last player they serve as the last runner is also the senior sister of the school's track and field department, can there still be a dark horse to shake this iron wall...... Wait a minute, what's that?! Dust storm?! ”
"The players in Class B flew, no, the other players also flew, and even the spectators and referees were blown away! It's so high! Could it be that today's weather is due to the phenomenon of people falling locally? ”
……
"All in all, I don't know why, my memory in the middle is a little vague, but it seems that it was the last stick of Class B to turn the tide and achieve a Jedi counterattack, probably because the process was too shocking, and the specific things didn't leave much impression, it's a pity!"
"Hoshikawa! Hoshikawa! ”
At the beginning of Class B, the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis drowned out the voices of the commentators, and although they forgot how the miracle happened and the sacrifices they made for the miracle, the audience who landed safely still did not hesitate to applaud the champion.
The girl who crossed the finish line waved somewhat apologetically to the stands, and then threw herself into her boyfriend's arms amid the heartbreak of the crowd.
"Is it necessary to transform?"
Li Wu, who had just helped return the scene to its original state and urgently filled in the trench that appeared on the runway, hugged the waist under Aoi Hoshikawa sportswear and complained in her ear.
"I use my magic to keep everyone safe...... And it's because it's agreed to win. ”
She pulled back her long, straight black hair and spread her hands out like a tantrum, "So what about my orange soda?" ”
"For you, for you."
Li Wu threw the can to her, which was still cool, "This is the reward for the first place." ”
"When is it more than just the first place in the relay race?"
"It's always been number one, in every way."
Hoshikawa Aoi smiled and took his hand in turn, slowly moving towards the stands as if he was tired of running and needed support, throwing a provocative look at the direction of Class D of the first year.
"What if Rin-san Hori asks you? I'm afraid that's the answer. ”
"Tied for first place, only I am second."
"Phew."
There was a warm, soft touch from her body as she approached.
The relay race that just ended was the last event of the morning, and after the school radio played a pleasant departure song, the two of them went back to the activity room for lunch with Arisa.
In the afternoon, Hikari and Makai, who were going to participate in the two-person three-legged together, had already arrived one step ahead and opened the lunch box.
Seeing them come in, Shiratori Mao was the first to applaud.
"Welcome, Welcome, Relay Champion - It's a hassle to bring back everyone who was blown away one by one?"
"Thanks to the president's help."
Hoshikawa Aoi was embarrassed to thank him.
"It's a trivial matter, if you want to express your gratitude, can you borrow Li Wujun in the afternoon?"
"Nope."
While the two of them were chatting harmoniously, Li Wu sat down next to his childhood sweetheart.
"I'm going to watch our game in the afternoon."
"As long as the time doesn't overlap."
The sports festival at Inaba High School lasted for two days, and it was as if it had been pre-agreed, and all the five people present chose to participate in the events on the first day.
Seemingly dissatisfied with this answer, Hikari hit him with her knee under the table.
"This is the best martial arts tournament in the school, is Xiao Wu going to miss the moment when I become the champion?"
"You're participating in a two-person three-legged event, isn't it the world's No. 1 martial arts conference?"
She still likes this kind of plot to determine the strongest house competition.
Light puffed up his cheeks.
"I hugged her."
"Yes, everyone saw it, and I heard someone talk about it before I came."
The elder broke off the conversation with Hoshikawa Aoi halfway, "Legend has it that they often train each other by chasing each other, and in the end, the girl successfully lifted the trophy. ”
"What the hell is the first half of the sentence?"
Could it be that it happened the last time I practiced with her?
"So you have to come to see us, and you can't treat us differently."
"But you can't hug it, Li Jun."
Shiratori Mao nodded in agreement with her statement: "After all, it's two people, and it's really not good." ”
Hoshikawa Aoi narrowed her eyes: "I'm not actually talking about the number of people, President." ”
"Huh? Is it a big problem between one person or two people? But two to three people may not be much of a problem. ”
She meant something and exchanged glances with the other party.
“…… Would anyone like to come and see my game? ”
Erisa, who had not raised her hand until now, asked weakly.
*
In the end, everyone decided to go to watch the badminton match that started first in the afternoon.
In addition to long-distance running, most of today's events are these sports that require special venues or emphasize more fun, and the spectators move from the stands to pull up the nets and divide the badminton courts in multiple areas.
Arisa lived up to expectations and survived the first round before being eliminated in the second round.
When she returned to class, the girls gathered around her to comfort her.
The three-legged battle between the two was not ideal, and although they only dragged Shiratori, who was physically weak, to the finish line, they still missed out on the championship.
"Do you really have a practice fitting?"
As they staggered back to the stands, Li Wu asked.
"She's all about practicing with you! Like words? ”
Shiratori Makai sued.
"It's because Mayi is too weak to keep up with my speed."
Hikari now changed his name to her with him, and began to push the pot on the spot.
Fortunately, at this time, the Ministry of Broadcasting announced that the long-distance running project was about to start, and Li Wucai got rid of the scene of the two people's dumping.
"Gotta win!"
Before leaving, Hikari grabbed his arm and asked.
"You're still going to run? Can you support it physically? ”
The boy, who also belonged to the ambulance team, was a little surprised to see him change into sportswear.
"It's okay, have you ever heard that medics are the strongest? When someone fell, I carried him into the infirmary on the spot. ”
He stood on the starting line, where a large number of people had already gathered.
"Next up were the athletes who were participating in the long run, and as the starting pistol rang out, we could see their posture running forward, hopefully not causing a sandstorm...... Hey? Why should I worry about this?"
As the radio said, several phalanxes had been pulled out of the runway, and Li Wu was in the middle of the first phalanx.
They may not really be confident in their physical abilities, but more want to let the members of the information department who are in charge of taking pictures take the opportunity to take pictures of their current heroic appearance.
At that time, at least he can declare that he has successfully led the way.
After one lap, there are already people who are gradually falling behind, and those who really have the potential to win the championship are still conserving their strength in the second phalanx.
After another half circle, Li Wu's original position had reached the front of the first phalanx.
Then, at the gasp of the boy in front of him, he took the lead.
The players aiming for the championship began to speed up, refilling the first phalanx, which was much empty, and then they found that this guy was still maintaining the speed at the beginning!
Some people gritted their teeth in disbelief, gave up their physical strength to allocate offside to seize the leading position, and then gradually slowed down again, watching themselves be overtaken.
It's disgusting! Someone hangs!
Almost in the eyes of everyone's sad and indignant, Li Wu crossed the finish line with an apology in a different sense from Aoi Hoshikawa.
If it weren't for the request of his childhood sweetheart, he really wanted to simply get by.
"Li Wu, look here!"
Riyu Miyashiro, who was guarding the finish line, seized the opportunity, and the flash of the camera in her hand flashed.
Guangxin, who was standing next to her, grabbed his right hand contentedly and faced the boiling stands: "We are the champions!" ”
"Rin-san?! You're in our class?! "Did you betray even you?"
From the position of Class D in the first year, there was a very heavy wail from the betrayals.
"Wait a minute, I remember that he was the same during the relay run in the morning, why did he change it?"
"Burn him! I saw someone holding the hands of two girls at the same time the other day! ”
"Explode, recharge!"
Soon there was a cacophony of dissonance in the cheers.
They waved at the spectators like soldiers on a parade, and the players behind also crossed the line one after another, wiping their sweat in frustration, and also received warm applause.
The other three members of the club in the distance approached this side with drinks in their hands, but Airisa still didn't quite get used to this lively occasion and grabbed Hoshikawa Aoi's arm, who and Shiratori Mao pointed at each other, probably saying bad things about the two childish ghosts who love to be in the limelight.
For them, the first day of the festival ended with the referee's melodious whistle.
