This is the anti-theft badge.
Not long after the Kanto tournament, it was the first semester's final exam.
Before the official holiday, Yukimura announced the tennis department's holiday plans.
"... Eh?!
Hakone? "
"Yes,
That's right.
Renji contacted his relative who owns a hotel in Hakone,
We plan to use the remaining funds from last year to hold a week-long special training. "Yukimura said with a smile," The hotel is built against the mountain,
The tennis court is not far from town,
It's a good place. "
"But it sounds more like a trip." Marui blinked and blew a bubble.
Yukimura did not refute his point of view.
"How should I put it?
Next is the national tournament,
In order to prepare for the national tournament,
And to make everyone more cohesive, appropriate play is necessary. "He crossed his arms, and his coat almost fluttered in the wind.
Liu, who "contacted his relative" next to him, held a notebook,
Took over the conversation, "Of course,
The spots for the training,
In addition to the main team, are the reserve team members.
The next main selection is in early August, two weeks before the official start of the national tournament.
If there is a change in personnel at this time, we will also be very happy. "
His tone did not fluctuate,
It was impossible to tell what "very happy" meant.
Prince Ren secretly calculated,
The "travel" expenses of a dozen people for a week,
It was indeed difficult for the person in charge of the accounts to be happy.
"Okay, do you have any questions?
You can ask now. "Liu asked.
Seto raised his hand, "Then, can I ask for leave?"
"Senior, do you have any other arrangements?" Yukimura asked.
Seto smiled and hesitated for a few seconds.
Yitiao next to him saw that he did not say anything, so he said with a smile, "He didn't do well on the final exam this time,
He will probably be tutored by the teacher. "
"Tutored...?"
"We are going to be promoted soon,
When school starts, there is voluntary enrollment for the advanced class,
This guy and I both signed up.
There are hard and fast rules in the advanced class. Before the exam, the teacher said that if we don't achieve a certain ranking, we will have to stay for class during the holidays. "Yitiao said," So the two of us have to stay for class.
Ah, my results are not bad, but as partners, it's better to share weal and woe, right? "
This was an irrefutable reason.
Yukimura pondered for a while and simply agreed. "Then I'll leave you a training plan."
"Thank you."
When it came to the topic of grades, it was easy to fall into some bad comparisons.
Yitiao glanced at the uneasy Seto and snorted softly. He turned his head and looked at the other second-year students. He could not help but sigh. "Speaking of which, you guys don't seem to have any problems with grades at all."
"Senior, you also have the qualifications to be an observer, right?" Willow said.
Yitiao frowned slightly. "Aren't OB students specialized in sports?
This school allows OB students to enter … It's not very nice of me to say this, but I'll be laughed at.
Tachikai University's high school has a very high deviation rate in Kanagawa. If you can enter the high school through the proper entrance exam, you'll have a much better life.
After all, more than half of the high school students are directly promoted from middle school. "
"School bullying?
Senior doesn't seem like the type to care about that. "Yukimura said.
Yitiao smiled. "If you can live well, of course you have to live well. As for me, I'm just an ordinary person.
And the essence of being an ordinary person is to blend into the crowd. "
Seto: "… That's enough. You're saying something I don't understand.
Why do I feel like you're being sarcastic? "
Yitiao shook his head. He felt that partnering with this idiot was one of the failures of his life as a student.
"You should study hard!
Don't fail again! "he said earnestly.
Seto was very dissatisfied. "The final results aren't out yet!
I haven't confirmed that I failed yet! "
Yitiao sneered. "But you can't get on the red list.
As for me, I still have these – "
He pointed his finger forward and drew an arc that included several second-year students. "They're also on the red list."
Seto choked.
He looked at the juniors in front of him and said with hidden bitterness, "Yanagi and Kazuyanagi are fine, but Prince Ren, why are your grades so good too?"
Prince Ren:???
"Senior, don't judge a book by its cover." He couldn't help but puff out his cheeks.
Yes, although Prince Ren looked like a troublemaker who would play pranks in class (and in fact, there wasn't much difference), his grades had always been very good.
When Marui first met him, he didn't believe in superstitions. At one point, he thought that the ranking on the red list was wrong. After several times, he finally hesitated and asked if he could borrow his notes for a look.
Prince Ren's habit of taking notes was to write an outline when he was preparing for class. He summarized the key points in the book and his own understanding. In class, he would use a pen of different colors to modify it. During review, he would summarize and summarize it again.
Marui read it once and fell in love with his colorful notes. He evaluated Prince Ren with a new perspective.
"Although you're a person who likes to steal my snacks, if you think about it, it's not unacceptable to exchange your notes," Marui said.
Prince Ren was silent for a while. "Forget it, Wentai. You shouldn't accept it."
He didn't steal the snacks because he liked them. He just thought it was interesting.
If the "victim" became submissive, then wouldn't it be meaningless?
Marui also guessed what he was thinking. He couldn't help but roll his eyes and say, "How can there be such an annoying person?"
The "annoying" person had been quiet for a while now.
It wasn't that he stopped playing pranks or was gentle and polite to people, but the frequency of his pranks had decreased. When he spoke to people, he no longer had an "I'm just up to no good" expression.
Yukimura even came over to ask if he had any difficulties recently.
Prince Ren thought to himself, "What kind of image do you have in your hearts?"
Of course, he was fine. There was nothing wrong with him at all. It was just that he awakened some amazing ability.
The power in his dream made his physical fitness unable to improve. The thing called "Psychic Power" (Yes, Prince Ren weighed the pros and cons and decided to believe a part of it, although the dialog box was really like a hacker's prank) was like a bottomless pit. It made him feel tired all the time.
This kind of tiredness was more of a mental exhaustion. It consumed his energy.
To a certain extent, Prince Ren had obsessive-compulsive disorder. There were things that he had to finish every day, such as studying, tennis practice, and watching tennis videos.
In the past, or more precisely, since he joined the tennis club at Tachikai University, he could finish everything before 9 PM. He could even go out to the arcade or go to a park to bask in the moonlight and breathe in the "essence of the moon".
But ever since he had the dream, he didn't have the energy to go out even if he finished all these things. In addition, he had to choose a special training list and consciously train himself …
"Masuharu, wake up."
Prince Ren struggled in his sleep and muttered, "It's still early, let me sleep a little longer."
"You have a club activity today. You have to take the bus to school."
School activity?
Prince Ren sat up in shock from his sleep.
Half of his confused mind was still immersed in the dream. The Yukimura on the hospital bed seemed to be Sanada who slapped Yukimura on the rooftop of the hospital …
No, Sanada Hyun Ichiro was so bold that he dared to hit Yukimura?!
Wasn't it always Yukimura who bullied Sanada?
Wasn't Sanada only able to bully Jiyuan?
"Masuharu?"
Prince Ren turned his head and saw his mother wearing a dress with light makeup.
"You haven't gone to work yet?"
Prince Ren's mother smiled, "I'm leaving.
But I was afraid that you couldn't get up, so I came to wake you up first. "
But mom, I remember that you go to work much earlier than me …
Prince Ren sighed. He glanced at the alarm clock on the desk and raised his hand to cover his eyes.
"Hurry up and get up. You can still go to school to do morning training.
Mom heard that the competition in your school's sports club is fierce. "Prince Ren's mother held her face," You must invite mom to watch you play in the national competition finals. "
"Ah, forget it if I can't play."
"… Puri."
In the end, only eight people went to Hakone for the group activity.
Yitiao senpai and Seto senpai were addicted to tutoring, while Mōri said that he would go to Kansai during the holidays and would only come back when the main team competition started.
As for the other main team members and reserves, most of them were third-year students, and they were also addicted to tutoring.
Yukimura was inspired and looked at everyone's report cards.
Ordinary members also had good grades and bad grades, but as long as they didn't participate in the competition, it didn't matter.
Among those who had a chance to become a main team member or were already a main team member, the third-year students put most of their energy into their studies regardless of their grades. The second-year students didn't have bad grades either (in fact, there were a few who had good grades, such as Kazuyanagi Liu, who was guaranteed to be in the top three). As for the first-year students …
Well, let's not talk about the first-year students, let's talk about Jiyuan.
Jiyuan's Mandarin was good, but his math, physics, and chemistry were a bit worse.
But these were all safe (at least he could pass), but his English grades …
The timeline returned to the day when the report cards were announced. After training, they were back at the club office.
"… 8 points?" Sanada doubted his eyes.
Prince Ren watched as smoke came out of Sanada's head, and the katana that only appeared when he was playing basketball flashed for a second.
Prince Ren didn't see it, and thought that he saw it wrong.
Jiyuan, who was called to the club office, had a rare expression as he looked around and said, "Well, Vice Minister, I was just unlucky this time."
"… Unlucky?"
"I got a lot of multiple-choice questions wrong." He touched the back of his head and laughed foolishly.
Sanada was unlucky.
Liu was silent for a while as he looked at the results.
Logically speaking, they didn't have to worry so much. After all, as a private school, they could participate in all kinds of competitions as long as they didn't fail more than three subjects.
Jiyuan only had English which was more dangerous …
No, they couldn't think of it that way!
Including English, if this kid was a little careless in physics and mathematics, that would be three subjects!
Chemistry was also a low-flying subject!
In another year, second-year students would be more difficult than first-year students, and there was more than a 50% chance of failing!
Liu stood up, "Chiye, remember to bring your homework when you go to Hakone."
