Net King: Edogawa Sakuraichi

Chapter 80 Before the Opening Ceremony ([-])
Watching his movements, everyone's eyes fell on the things in his hands. They saw a yellow-green tennis ball lying quietly in his hands. The black Japanese characters lined up on it were particularly conspicuous. .

"Edogawa??!!"

With good dynamic eyesight, Kikumaru could see the letters on it clearly in an instant, his dark royal blue pupils blinked, and quietly moved to Oishi's ear, "Hey, Oishi, why is there 'Edogawa' on Echizen's tennis balls? 'This last name?"

"Ah? This..." Dashi scratched the back of his head, his partner's question... Can he explain it?

this ball

Fuji's eyes fell on Echizen's body, and his eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly.

Looking at the tennis ball, none of the people present said anything, they just quietly looked at Echizen and the motionless Sakuraichi, who were standing opposite each other.The wind moves quietly, faintly, with a hint of cool air, but more, it is the fragrance of crushed cherry blossoms.

When a piece of pink and white cherry blossoms fell in front of his eyes, Yingyi slowly stretched out his hand, took the tennis ball in his hand, carefully looked at the words on it, it was indeed his own.

"Hey," Echizen withdrew his hand and pressed the brim of his hat, hooked the corner of his mouth, with an unruly smile, "You look very powerful, let's have a fight."

Hearing this, Tezuka and the others couldn't help but close their eyelids. Echizen really likes to provoke others so much, but no one objected. After all, they also wanted to see whether Edogawa's strength was well-deserved or groundless.

However, Sakura raised her head slightly and looked at Echizen in front of her. Through the brim of her hat, only a thin line could be seen in her dark red pupils. She blinked slightly, and said coldly, "Who are you?"

"..."

"..."

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone froze immediately, and looked at Echizen with puzzled and suspicious eyes.Echizen was also stunned, his amber cat eyes looked at Sakuraichi in front of him, and then he blinked, a look of disbelief flashed across his eyes.

"噗嗤~" Kikumaru couldn't help but sneered at first, seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, he stiffened instantly, and said mechanically: "Sorry!" After finishing speaking, he immediately turned his back to Everyone, their shoulders gradually twitched.

Mieko Arai and Mai Kuwaha stared blankly at Sakuraichi, the corners of their mouths twitched, their expressions were a little weird, the Aihara twins standing behind them looked at the two who were quietly twisting their thighs, blinked, but didn't When talking, he just pursed his mouth firmly, but he couldn't help the smile in his eyes.

Kitajima Yuki and Kawamura Takaichi looked back and forth between Sakuraichi and Echizen, and suddenly felt a little headache.On one side, Haitang lowered his head slightly, hissing habitually.

"Too careless." His face was as paralyzed as Tezuka's, and the corners of his mouth also showed signs of twitching, and he reached out to adjust his glasses to cover up his unnaturalness.The light and watery smile on Yumiko Yagyu's face became more cordial, and the curve of the corner of her mouth deepened a little.

Goto Risa paused for a while when he curled his hair, and continued again, a playful light flashed in his blue-purple eyes, well, it's really the style of their ministers.Fujiwara slightly retracted her eyelids, and a faint light flashed on the lens, even though she was cold and silent, she couldn't help but twitched the corner of her mouth, "It's so slack."

"Wahhahaha..." Taocheng burst out laughing directly, usually Echizen forgets others, but he didn't expect to be forgotten by others now, he really deserves it.

"Hey, Momoshiro-senpai," Echizen turned his head to look at him, and then pressed the brim of his hat, "Cut~Madamadadane."

"Ahaha, I'm sorry...hahaha, really... really young...haha..."

"Taocheng, don't laugh, Echizen is your junior no matter what, how can you laugh so exaggeratedly, this doesn't take your junior's face into consideration, and the regional qualifiers will be in a few days, you are ready No? How is the training going? Although everyone has just come back from the U-17 and their strength has improved, but other schools are the same, how can you be so leisurely, this time is your defending match."

After listening to Oishi's words, Echizen looked at Sakuraichi, and said calmly: "We met in the United States last year." After a pause, he continued: "I was looking for a ball that day."

Sakura closed her eyelids, glanced at the tennis ball in her hand, and quickly searched for everything about that time in the United States in her mind, until the figure of 151 flashed in front of her eyes, she raised her head and said indifferently: "Oh , so it was you."

Oh, it turned out to be you.

What a flat but suddenly enlightened tone, but it made Echizen's face darken in an instant, this guy... really never remembered him!
"Ah, that's it." Echizen turned his head dejectedly, and said in a bad tone: "You have returned the ball."

Sakura nodded slightly, but said nothing.He just turned his head to look at Tezuka, and said indifferently, "Is there anything else?"

"Sakura, you don't even talk to me." Before Tezuka could speak, Kikumaru, who had had enough laughs, hung on Oishi's body and said resentfully, "Why? It's so annoying."

"I was training just now." Sakura paused for a moment, then continued, "You interrupted our training."

boom--

Sakuraichi's words struck Kikumaru's head instantly like a thunderbolt, instantly shaking Kikumaru's whole body limply, and all the tips of her flying hair drooped down. Sakuraichi... said he interrupted their training, he I just want to talk to her, how can I do this~
"Edogawa-san," a calm and introverted voice sounded slowly, successfully drawing everyone's gaze back to Kikumaru, only to hear Tezuka speak slowly, "See you at the regional qualifiers."

"Eh," Ying Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and her proud and confident arc faded away, "This year's champion... we won the women's tennis."

wow——

A violent wind blows from the ground, shattered cherry blossoms fly, dark fragrance floats, pieces of pink fall in front of the eyes, and fall to the ground, forming a thin carpet extending into the distance, as if there is the direction of the dream.

Oishi turned his head to look at him, paused the pen in Gan's hand, Kikumaru got out of the previous state, Momoki widened his eyes, Kaidou blinked his eyelids, Kawamura Takashi was slightly startled, Echizen's cat pupils were slightly condensed, and several people looked at each other It all fell on Yingyi's body.

"Ahhh," Tezuka's eyelids were slightly closed, and an undetectable arc was drawn at the corner of his mouth, "Nanwang won't be careless."

"Really?" Yingyi tilted her head slightly, a strong and domineering aura gradually spread on her body, "Then we will wait and see."

Win the championship?Really good data.

Gan picked up the pen and recorded the data just obtained in the notebook, occasionally pushing the glasses that fell down with the tip of the pen.

However, just after making this action, his hand couldn't help but pause, his eyes fell on the small metal object under Ying Yi's collar, his eyes shifted slightly, and he glanced at the other main candidates. There was a small metal object under the collar, and he frowned suspiciously, what was that?badge?

Although he was puzzled, Qian didn't ask, but just drew a big circle on the word badge on the notebook as a key symbol.

The broken cherry blossoms stopped flying, and the golden-red sunset gradually sank into the top of the mountain, pulling the backs of the people away longer and longer, intersecting each other from a distance, as if they were tied in a constant bond.

As the night gradually deepened, he turned his head and glanced at the photo frame placed on the desk, the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and then he reached out to hold the photo frame in his hand, gently rubbing the person in the photo with his fingertips, smiling like a cherry blossom Smudged on the delicate and beautiful face, making that elegant and windy smile even softer.

"Four more days... It will be the regional qualifiers." Fuji raised his head slightly, looked at the starry night sky outside the window, and said softly.Then he turned to the photo frame in his hand and smiled slightly, "Hey, Sakuraichi, please do your best."
