The king of the net relies on Echizen Ryoma

Chapter 263
Chapter 263
As time draws closer to midsummer, daytime temperatures seem to climb forever, with no end in sight.

The cicadas perched among the dense and green branches and leaves chirped uninterruptedly, with a distant and melodious sound.

The occasional gust of wind in the air is still heavy with humidity. The only place that can be regarded as a place to escape the heat is probably the big tree next to the playground that has grown for many years under the shade.

On the thick trunk is a tree crown that is so huge that you can hardly see the top. The branches and leaves are pressed down very low, tightly blocking the scorching sun. The cool and refreshing air carries a little fresh grass fragrance, enough to give A feeling of full comfort and infinite laziness.

Under the tree, the teenager leaned his back against the tree trunk, stretched his legs and sat leisurely on the grass, holding a half-drunk can of ponta in his hand. There are scattered drops of water, and when the water condenses a lot, it will drip onto the grass along the smooth outer wall, crystal clear.

The Japan-U.S. friendly match ended a week ago. All the competitions have come to an end. There is still nearly a month before the national competition. The tennis team's work time has been reduced a lot. All they have to do now is to prepare for the final exam.

If the exam is not good, the school system is to suspend the competition, and during the summer vacation, they have to come to the school to make up for the failed subjects, so as to prepare for the subsequent make-up exams. A tragic thing.

So recently even Kikumaru, who has always left his grades far behind him, has been pestering Oishi to make up lessons, and he dare not relax until the day is dark.

Ryoma thinks that his Mandarin is not a problem anymore. Even if his grades are mediocre, he should at least pass the test. Therefore, he doesn't need to make up for the exam subjects. He can temporarily rest for a while before the school selection competition.

There was a sound of footsteps from far to near, and Ryoma raised his eyes, and saw the girl running towards him in small steps, noticing that he was looking at him, the girl waved to him with a bright smile, her long purple-gray hair followed the running The frequency swings from side to side.

Looking at her in a daze, she no longer knew when she ran up to him, stared at his straight amber cat eyes, and waggled her fingers in front of his face funny.

Long Ma came back to his senses, a blush quickly flashed across his fair side face, and he said sullenly, "Why did it take you so long to come?"

The girl suppressed a smile, pretending not to see the boy's blush, and said innocently, "It's none of my business, it's really not easy to be a senior..." After finishing speaking, she grabbed the little ponta left in Ryoma's hand He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

A cool feeling hit the whole body, and even the fatigue from running all the way just now was relieved a lot.

Ryoma watched in amazement as she finished the drink, and after a while he said dryly, "That's what I drank..."

"It's okay..." She smiled heartily, then leaned over to lean against him, "I don't mind."

"What did you say about being a senior?"

"Just now, when I went to ask Senior Gan to dismiss me as a training partner, I was made things difficult by him for a long time."

"What did the senior say?"

"He meant that I should continue to be a sparring partner, but my current golf skills have fallen too far behind the seniors and you. I can't do the sparring at all. Every time I practice with you, I will be exhausted to the point of collapse." With puffed cheeks, he looked listless, his body softened, and his whole body centered on Ryoma, lazy like a boneless doll, "I'm really tired these days..."

First there was the Kanto Tournament, and then there was no rest for a long time, followed by the camp, and after the camp, there was the Japan-US friendly match. Perhaps the teenagers could bear such waves of offensives, but she was a girl, so she really couldn't bear it.

Ryoma let her lean on him, and he also knew that she was very tired. The work of sleeping volunteers and pre-competition training partners is not so easy to handle. For a girl, it is still a bit heavy.
