Chapter 44: Anyway, I miss Yuya very much. Talking on the phone...
The weather has been very good recently, and Shuji Tanejima has clearly noticed that his junior's mood is also rising sharply, as if it will burst out one day.
But this has nothing to do with him.
Tanejima Shuji's hands drooped limply, his entire body hanging from the railing. He said in a resentful voice, "I really want to go out and play with Xiaoyou!"
"What good is it to keep me in the base? I can't stop that Byodoin guy from going crazy."
Kanata Irie was playing the saxophone with great immersion. Anyway, Shuji Tanejima had been doing this every few days since he returned to the base, so there was nothing to pay attention to.
There may be a shortage of everything in the base, but there must be the most courts. Yukimura Seiichi skillfully found an abandoned court in the corner and sat down on a chair casually.
He couldn't pick up the racket now, but it would be nice to just look at the court.
Maybe I feel a little lonely, but when I think of those thrilling days in the hospital, it’s not unbearable.
The cell phone suddenly rang.
"Moshimoshi, is that Yuya? It ended so early today."
"It's the weekend in Jing City today."
Yukimura Seiichi looked up at the sky through the branches above. "It's already the weekend! Damn, I don't think I've become so insensitive to the passage of time."
In his simple and boring life day after day, besides looking forward to the phone calls and messages from everyone every night, he mostly liked to look at the tennis court.
"Then I'll remind you next time."
Still the same style as always, Yuya.
"That's too much, Yuuya."
As expected, I didn't hear the other party's answer. He must be thinking seriously about where he went too far.
"Well, it looks like Yuu can watch the sunset with me today."
"Even after being in Kanagawa for so long, Yuya probably hasn't really seen the sea there. The afterglow of the setting sun casts a brilliant orange-red hue on the sea, creating a truly beautiful painting."
Morinaga Yuya stood by the window and looked out. He saw lush branches and leaves, and a white line occasionally streaked across the blue sky.
"Just listening to Jingshi's description, it must be beautiful."
"When you come back, take me there. I think the people involved know better where is the most beautiful."
The surprise in Yukimura Seiichi's eyes could hardly be hidden, "Are you inviting me to watch the sunset with you?"
Yuya Morinaga's fingertips fell on the thick club activity log. The tennis club's log has always been written by everyone in turn, and today it happened to be Yuya Morinaga's responsibility.
"Well, since I've gotten to know Jingshi pretty well over the past few days, we should be considered friends now, right?"
“Does this mean you’re giving me the choice?”
"Because Jing City is very important now."
Even if he couldn't see the person, Seiichi Yukimura could still remember the firm and bright eyes of Yuya Morinaga when he was serious.
"Yuya, I'm glad I can be friends with you now."
Morinaga Yuya's fingertips trembled slightly, but he still didn't hold the phone away. He didn't know when the tips of his ears had turned red.
His eyes fell on a pot of daisies on the windowsill, a flower that Seiichi Yukimura loved very much.
After Morinaga Yuya expressed his desire to try growing flowers, he asked his parents to bring it to Morinaga Yuya.
"Jingshi, everyone misses you, including Daisy. It's not as energetic as before."
"I miss everyone too. Although I don't know why Akagi has sent me fewer messages these past few days, I saw the child's photo and it's a normal reaction. You don't have to worry."
Of course, Yukimura Seiichi could guess why. The training list had just been changed, and Kirihara Akari completely gave up on going to him to complain that day.
Except for Kirihara Akaya who was still so persistent in writing one sentence every day, the others had given up long ago and turned their attention to sharing the interesting things in their recent lives with Yukimura Seiichi.
But when did Yuya learn not to be honest?
"What about you? Yuya, do you miss me?"
"I also want to go to Jing City."
Morinaga Yuya didn't understand why he felt a little embarrassed, since he could easily say it to other people.
"I miss Yuya too, every day. When I'm reading in my room, I wonder if Yuya is secretly reading mystery novels again in class. I wonder how Yuya's home economics class is going. When I see the seniors on the court, I think, if we go together, we can overturn the entire base..."
"Anyway, I miss Yuya very, very much."
Growing up in a loving family, Seiichi Yukimura has always been frank about matters like love, being straightforward and leaving the other party with no way to avoid it.
It’s just a pity that the other party has never figured it out, so even if he wants to smash it open with a hammer, he can’t do anything.
A piece of elm wood.
"Jingshi."
His heartbeat was out of rhythm, and Morinaga Yuya subconsciously raised his hand to press his chest.
"I've also been trying to maintain the school flower beds according to the instructions Seiichi gave me. Masaharu has been stubbornly playing pranks these past few days, and Bunta's chances of being fooled by gum have decreased a bit. My brother Juzaburo has been coming to the tennis club regularly, but it's Akaya's cram school that's causing the most damage. Renji, Sadaharu, and I developed a new flavor and brought it to the tennis club today, and everyone fell down."
Yukimura Seiichi followed Morinaga Yuya's lead and changed the subject, "Yuya should have taken some photos?"
"Well, I'll send it to you later."
I forgot who started it, but by the time Yukimura Seiichi reacted, there were several gigabytes of photos and videos of everyone on the computer.
There are first-person perspectives of the prankster, the victim's perspective, and third-person perspectives.
Just by looking at a few photos, Yukimura Seiichi could imagine what everyone looked like.
Even though he is not in the tennis club now, he has not missed any changes in the club.
"The new formula helps people recover their physical strength faster. If Jingshi is interested, you can study it."
"Great, it just so happens that Tezuka needs to keep up with our resistance."
Except for the initial period when Seiichi Yukimura was able to participate in the research and development, he has always been in a daunting state. If Morinaga Yuya was not also a mental power player, Seiichi Yukimura might have started to destroy his sense of taste long ago. Although he can withstand these tastes, it does not mean that he likes them.
But it was he who chose to let Yanagi Renji coax people.
However, he is currently unable to participate in anything at the base due to health reasons, so let him spread the fine traditions of Rikkai University.
It had only been a few months since he had completely forgotten about this tradition.
"The Kanto Tournament is about to begin in the next few days, Jing City..."
Yukimura Seiichi also wanted to see Morinaga Yuya participate in the official competition. "For the finals, I will probably be able to go there. I think I won't be needed for other competitions before that."
"Of course! We will win the championship in Jing City."
Yuya's voice instantly became excited.
Shuji Tanejima looked hesitantly at Seiichi Yukimura who was sitting opposite him with a smile, and then looked at the green and bubbling drink on the table.
Has Yukimura gone mad staying at the base? He's actually trying to create a dark drink to poison them?
During the training camp and the week in the tennis club, Shuji Tanejima clearly saw the scene of a row of people being poisoned.
And the junior with his eyes closed went to help drink it with a faint smile.
When Kunimitsu Tezuka thought of the two bottles of drinks, he couldn't help but feel cold.
"This is my step-by-step guide based on what Yuya sent me. Tezuka, give it a try."
Yukimura Seiichi pushed one of the cups towards Tezuka Kunimitsu, and his gentle tone made Tezuka Kunimitsu feel dangerous.
"Otherwise, when you return to the tennis club, you'll be facing beings that have evolved for countless generations. Without any resistance, you'll fall directly on the court."
Tezuka Kunimitsu swallowed hard and pushed up his glasses. "Isn't it a bad idea to study these things in the tennis club?"
"I've recovered quite well and have also been seen by a professional doctor."
Safe and healthy, but tastes terrible.
Under the gaze of his seniors and Yukimura Seiichi, Tezuka Kunimitsu raised the cup with difficulty and drank it.
Then the cup fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
People are frozen in their positions.
Yukimura Seiichi sighed, picked up his cup and took a sip, "That's why I said I should adapt in advance."
Facing Yukimura Seiichi's expectant gaze, Tanejima Shuji had an idea, "How many of these have you done, Yukimura-chan? Can you have two or three more cups?"
As the captain of an army, Byodoin Phoenix, when faced with the beverage developed by his descendants, you must be able to drink it, right?
Thinking about the news I heard in the coaching room, junior high school students will be drafted early next year.
The more Shuji Tanejima thought about it, the more he felt that he was great. If he couldn't even handle this "ordinary" drink, how could he possibly suppress the junior high school students?
Although he didn't know who Tanejima-senpai was planning to trick, Yukimura Seiichi was happy to fulfill his small request.
"Yes, Senior, I'll give them all to you."
Irie Kanata understood what Tanejima Shuji meant and decisively chose to get involved. By the time Byodoin got angry, Shuji would be there to block it, giving them enough time to escape.
Ochi Moonlight stayed silently in the corner, and Juzaburo, I feel a little... Forget it, it's a good thing Juzaburo is not here.
Otherwise he would have to rescue the person.
The two seniors, with different thoughts, quickly left with their packed drinks, and their backs looked cheerful no matter how you looked at them.
The only reliable one, Ochi Gekko, sent Tezuka Kunimitsu back to the dormitory. They couldn't let Yukimura Seiichi take him back and leave him there waiting for him to wake up, as that would make these seniors seem too unreliable.
That night, Seiichi Yukimura held up his cheek and watched Morinaga Yuya reading on the other end of the video.
"You are now responsible for everything you have tamed. You are responsible for your rose..."
It suddenly seemed as if daybreak had broken out outside the window, and the dazzling white light illuminated most of the base.
Morinaga Yuuya looked at Yukimura Seiichi nervously, "Seiichi, what's the problem over there?"
Yukimura Seiichi heard an unfamiliar voice calling his senior's name.
"Don't worry, Yuuya. I won't be affected for now." Yukimura Seiichi turned his head slightly to look out the window. The white lights flashed one after another. "During the day, Tanejima-senpai asked me for a few drinks of the latest drinks. He must be sober now."
Morinaga Yuu also understood and reopened the book, "Then I'll go comfort Shuji-senpai later."
