Chapter 25 Exam Yuihara Kaoru is the cutest person in the world...
Yuihara Xiangcheng felt that she had never been so pious - the first thing she did during lunch break was to run to the school's celebrity statue gallery and give an apple to the statue of Newton.
This kind of thing was really beyond everyone's imagination, so after school, a group of people from the team followed her home to watch her salute seriously.
Niou Masaharu, twisting his pigtails, whispered to the others, "Do you think... this method really works?"
"From a probability perspective, it shouldn't matter much, but from a psychological point of view, it should have some comforting effect!" Yanagi Renji said after thinking for a while.
Niou Masaharu began to wonder if there were any statues of great musicians at school. If so, should he, a music-lover, also go and pay his respects? What gift should he give to a musician?
Convinced that she had done her best, Yuihara Kaoru ended her ceremony with three solemn bows.
"Okay, let's go eat. I'll help you review afterward," Yukimura said, concluding their tour of the corridor of famous statues. Niou Masaharu kept looking back, but eventually he excused himself early.
"I bet he went to see Beethoven!" said Yuihara Kaoru confidently.
Yanagi Renji replied: "The probability is one hundred percent."
Niou Masaharu, whose intention to leave had already been guessed by everyone, first took the apple that Xiangcheng had given to Newton, and then placed it steadily in front of the statue of Beethoven: "Great God of Music! Please, I really don't want to fail the course..."
Because the classroom was requisitioned for exams, everyone gathered today in the school's gardening classroom, which is the garden on the rooftop of the second teaching building.
This was the first time Xiangcheng came up - before Rika fell in love, she always spent her lunch break with Rika. Since Rika fell in love, she either played games alone on the rooftop of the main building, or went to the volleyball hall to practice for a while, and occasionally she would communicate with Hayakawa and a group of girls about the latest news.
The moment you step into the gardening classroom, you are greeted by the smell of moisture and the fragrance of flowers.
Flowers are arranged vertically on display shelves on both sides, including various varieties and colors of Asteraceae plants, as well as roses, geraniums, hydrangeas, and more.
Xiangcheng also spotted the familiar pot of Endless Summer. She leaned in to examine it carefully. "Is this the one?"
He looked at Yukimura for confirmation, and Yukimura nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't expect you to still remember it!"
Xiangcheng Wubu said proudly: "Oh, you forgot, we mixed the colors together~"
Hydrangeas are known for turning blue when exposed to acid. During the days Xiangcheng was hospitalized, they used aluminum sulfate to tint the newly budded hydrangeas a blue. The resulting blooms turned a beautiful blue. Her family couldn't keep them, so Yukimura took them back and later sent her photos—but shouldn't they have been kept at home?
Yukimura smiled happily, not knowing whether it was because she recognized the flower or because she discovered his secretive little thoughts at a glance.
After dinner, Yukimura helped Xiangcheng review the key knowledge of this semester, while Yanagi Renji and Sanada helped Niou, who arrived late, with music theory - the audition session was hopeless, but at least he still had to know something textually related to music theory.
The feeling of having so much knowledge before the exam was truly reassuring! Especially when the test paper was handed out, Xiangcheng glanced over the questions. Many of them were the same ones her physics teacher and Yukimura had covered during her tutoring. The smile on her face grew wider, and she couldn't help but think of Yukimura in the next exam room. If he saw the test paper, he would surely be so happy for her!
So, having just watched the invigilator collect the test papers and leave, Xiang Cheng excitedly ran out of the classroom and ran into Yukimura, who had also just come out. Her eyes sparkled, "I did very well on the test! I can go to the training camp!"
Yukimura looked at her gently: "I know."
"Then we must celebrate!"
"How about going to the beach?"
The two spoke almost at the same time, burst into laughter, and nodded vigorously.
The group who finally got out of the exam - the seven first-year boys from the tennis club, along with Kaori, Rika, Hayakawa, and Kobayashi Anne, came to the beach.
The boys rolled up their trouser legs and the girls took off their socks. Everyone was barefoot, playing and chasing the waves.
The waves roared as they rolled, and several people rolled their hands into trumpets, competing to see who could make the loudest sound. Xiang Cheng used all her strength, "Kanagawa is amazing!"
Sakurai Rika also shouted: "Kanagawa is so great!"
"Rikkai University is awesome!"
"Rikkai University is awesome!"
Kaoru made a face at Rika and shouted, "Yuhara Kaoru is the best person in the world!"
Rika smiled and said, "Yuhara Kaoru is the best person in the world!"
If that’s the case, then—Kaguya cleared her throat: “Yuhara Kaguya is the cutest person in the world!”
"Sakurai Rika is the cutest person in the world!"
"Hey Rika, why did you secretly change the lyrics?"
Sakurai Rika squatted down and splashed a handful of sea water: "Because you are an idiot Xiangcheng!"
Xiangcheng was not to be outdone and threw the water back: "You are the idiot Rika~" Hayakawa, who was passing by and picking up shells, was innocently hurt and dropped the pile of small shells in his hand and joined the fight.
The "gentleman" Yagyu, who had been hesitating whether to go into the water, was finally willing to take a step forward - Rika had been dragged to the ground by Xiangcheng, and saw another big wave approaching.
With Yagyu's support, Rika suddenly became rampant and ran over with a smirk. Xiangcheng fled madly, not forgetting to turn back and provoke Rika who was not as fast as her: "Stupid Rika~ You can't catch me!"
"Don't run if you dare!" Rika took two steps at a time and was about to catch up, holding a ball of sand in her hand. Xiangcheng quickly hid behind Yukimura who was watching the show: "Come here if you dare!"
Rika chose to surround him from the side, and Kaoru also pulled Yukimura's clothes, making Yukimura always face Rika.
Yukimura smiled as he was pushed around by Kaoru.
Unable to bear watching, Niou pulled Sanada away and said, "Let's go, Vice Minister. The atmosphere here is too dazzling. It's not suitable for us to stay here."
Sanada rarely agreed and quietly moved away from them.
Rika's eyes rolled, and she came up with a plan: "Yukimura, I have a super secret about Xiangcheng, do you want to hear it?"
Yukimura turned his head to look at Xiangcheng who was sticking her head out from his waist and shaking her head wildly, then nodded without any burden: "Okay, no problem." Then he grabbed Xiangcheng's wrists with both hands and tried to lead her out.
Rika squatted down and picked up a handful of sand: "Yuhara Xiangcheng, it's time for revenge!" Her neck was still filled with the sand Xiangcheng had thrown in!
Xiangcheng became more nervous. Yukimura's grip on her wrist became stronger and stronger. She simply put her arms around his waist and held each other's hands tightly.
"Don't even think about leaving me to Lixiang! Lululu~"
The strength that had been squeezing her wrist disappeared, replaced by Rika's strange smile. Xiang Cheng finally reacted and quickly let go and stepped back.
"Yuhara Kaoru!" Rika saw the opportunity and rushed forward. Kaoru turned around and ran away without having time to be shy.
Yukimura stood there, and the already somewhat embarrassed Yagyu raised the corner of his lips: "Tsk."
The two girls had already run very far away, and only their laughter could be heard.
Xiaolin Xing and Hayakawa Yuka smiled at each other and said, "Come on, let's exchange videos and photos."
"Okay, okay, this trip is definitely worth it."
"I bumped into it, I bumped into it."
At this moment, a dark figure blocked the way of the two of them, and they were startled: "Yukimura?"
The mud monkey-like Yuihara Kaoru and Sakurai Rika were a stark contrast to the elegant ladies. They spent ages in the dressing room on the beach getting clean. Rika grumbled, "Kaoru, you're too crazy when you play."
"I learned that from you."
"Hey——" Where did the shy and cute Xiangcheng go when school started?
The day after the results were released, the Kanto tournament semifinals took place, with Rikkai University facing Hyotei. Having scored an 80 in physics, Yuihara Kaoru showed up to cheer on the team. She soon discovered that even more excited than she was were the Hyotei supporters.
Yuihara Kaoru followed the others and covered her ears. The intense, demonic sound still filled her eardrums.
"The winner is Atobe, the winner is Hyotei!..." Very good, she found Mizunoe Haruko who was wearing earplugs and remained calm in the crowd.
The captains of both teams shook hands, and Yukimura said, "Atobe is still the same, very popular."
Atobe's eyes were electric: "Ah well, I will not lose!"
"Then we'll wait and see, Atobe."
The game started with two doubles matches, and both sides won one and lost one.
In singles three, to everyone's surprise, Yukimura was the player for Rikkai University, and Yueguang Koichi was the player for Hyotei.
Xiangcheng took out his cell phone and took a picture of the moment Yukimura served the ball.
The 1.8-meter-tall boy gently tossed the ball up, pulled the racket with his right arm, leaned back and jumped, and suddenly released his tense muscles. The racket face carried the tennis ball at the speed of a bullet and rushed straight to the opponent's court.
What a terrifying explosive force this shot had. Xiangcheng enviously thought, if only she could have such great strength.
The opponent, Yue Zhiyueguang, blocked the ball with his left hand, but Yukimura calmly raised his racket and hit another powerful smash. Yue Zhiyueguang's body shape finally changed, and he leaned forward slightly, obviously struggling to catch the ball.
As the two sides were testing each other, Yue Zhiyueguang took the initiative to attack.
In a flash, before he could see where the tennis ball flew to, he heard a "bang" and it landed in Yukimura's half of the court.
Yukimura's purple hair was blown up by the strong airflow and then slowly fell down.
"Was that the speed tennis should have just now?"
When Xiangcheng heard the referee announce the score of 15:0, she looked at Yukimura again and felt that his aura was even stronger than when he fought against Sanada.
Yukimura slowly raised his head, took out another tennis ball, slowly placed the ball with his left hand, and waited for it to bounce back into his hand.
"'Mach', huh?"
