"That's so rude, Akaya. I'm sorry, Kagemitsu, Atobe, he didn't mean it."

As a young painter who has been passionate about painting since childhood and became famous at a young age, Seiichi Yukimura has the most say, especially in oil painting.

He got closer to the painting and took a closer look, then said with a smile, "As a beginner, the brushstrokes in this painting are immature, but they are full of tenderness and emotion."

"Akaye, you're too lax. Apologize!"

Under pressure from three sides, Genichirō Sanada punched Xiao Kaikai.

"Ah, it hurts - Deputy Minister, please be gentle."

Kirihara habitually covered his head and cried out in pain, then apologized to the Atobe brothers: "I'm sorry, Atobe-senpai, Kagemitsu-senpai."

Then, Xiao Haidai naturally raised his head and looked at Sanada, "Deputy Minister, are you tired from playing ball just now? It seems that you don't have the strength to beat me? Do you want to take a break?"

Genichirō Sanada was facing the confused and concerned eyes of a certain idiot, the knowing looks of others, and the smiling face of Kotsugu Ran beside him.

I pressed down the brim of my hat, feeling too exhausted to complain.

"Shut up, hurry up."

Atobe Kagemitsu stepped forward, carefully took down the painting and put it aside, then he pressed down five bricks in a row according to some kind of pattern, and then hung the painting back.

“Crack, crack—”

The sounds of chains and rusty mechanisms were heard, and a black passage appeared on the wall on the left side of the crowd.

It turns out that the niche there is actually movable!

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would never have imagined it.

The Atobe brothers led everyone in, and then walked in the long corridor. Jingguang squatted down and groped for a while in the dark, and then, accompanied by the sound of something being opened, the corridor lit up.

The niche behind him slowly closed.

"Wow, that's so cool, Atobe-senpai, did you specially ask someone to design this?"

"yes."

Atobe Keigo nodded. "At that time, Keigo loved watching American movies, and many of them had secret passages and mechanisms. Keigo liked them, so we renovated the castle, adding not only the most advanced tennis equipment, various courts and mechanisms, but also these secret passages."

"Wow, I'm glad you guys remembered that."

"Of course, don't you see who I am?"

Atobe Keigo said proudly, and Jingguang nodded seriously beside him.

"Yeah!" That's what my brother said!

A smart person would naturally not interrupt the two of them and would just smile and say nothing.

Naturally, innocent people have no doubts.

"Atobe-senpai and Kagemitsu-senpai are both amazing."

Unable to bear with his innocent junior continuing to act foolishly, Sanada interrupted, "Hasn't it time yet?"

"Don't worry, we'll be there soon."

Jingguang stopped at a corner and pressed something. A new winding staircase appeared on the side wall.

Everyone followed Jingguang forward. After turning a few corners, they could faintly hear the sound of tennis balls and huge crashes in front of them.

Everyone's expression changed and they quickened their pace.
