My daily life in love is too contrary to my character.

"run!"

Takanashi Yuuko lived up to her +3 stamina. As the long-distance race gradually split into three groups, Takanashi Yuuko stayed close to the first group until the last half lap when the few people with spare energy began to accelerate, and she gradually showed signs of exhaustion.

Ultimately, they achieved excellent results, ranking fifth in the entire school and first in the first-grade group.

"Wow, Takanashi-kun is amazing," Shiraishi Sawa murmured to himself at the finish line.

As usual, Takanashi was surrounded by classmates and friends, and Shiraishi Sawa Hide showed no intention of squeezing in.

The only one who could hear this sentiment, Chiyo, smiled and asked Shiraishi Sawa Hide:

"It'll be your turn soon, Shiraishi-kun. Are you ready?"

"I'll do my best. My stamina deviation isn't as high as Takanashi's." Shiraishi Sawa suddenly remembered that Ichiri Chiyo next to him had a stamina value of +4, and asked curiously, "Ichiri-san, how are you in sports?"

"If I had run just now, taking first place wouldn't have been a problem." Calm, low-key, with a touch of Versailles.

How did you do that?

"Young lady, you were born with a special talent. My talent is that I have an exceptionally strong ability to run long distances. I have basically never trained in sports, but I always get a perfect score in running. Don't ask me anymore, good luck, Shiraishi-kun, you're next."

At this moment, Takanashi Yuko pushed Hashimoto Nana's hand away, indicating that she could walk on her own and did not need any help, and walked straight towards Shiraishi Sawa Hide.

"Go Shiraishi-kun!"

"I understand, I understand, I will definitely try my best."

"Go Shiraishi-kun!" "Go, Shiraishi, go!"...

The encouragement from the other students also reached Shiraishi Zexiu's ears.

Shiraishi Zexiu took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and said, "Hi!" He gave a symbolic bow to his classmates, "Please leave it to me," before heading off to the battlefield.

There were nearly 30 people in the men's group. Shiraishi Sawa stood in the middle of the arc, carefully pinning on his number tag, and took out a headband to wear on his head so that his sweaty hair wouldn't stick to his eyes.

Actually, I'm a little nervous. My system is letting me down and won't give me any useful items. My stamina is slow to rise, and I don't know what kind of results I can achieve.

"On your marks! Get set..."

Everyone lowered their bodies and leaned forward.

"run!"

"Go Shiraishi!" "Go, Shiraishi-kun!"

1500 meters is both long and short.

Shiraishi Zexiu didn't have any physical exertion plan, or any idea of ​​conserving energy for a final sprint. None of that mattered. For the 1,500-meter distance, all he wanted to do was run as fast as he could.

The boy swung his arms vigorously and ran forward with long strides.

Just like Takanashi Yuko did at the beginning, Shiraishi Sawa Hide is now closely following the first group.

As she sprinted 100 meters, at the first bend, a girl whom Shiraishi Sawa hadn't noticed but who had been watching her from afar stood there.

Shiraishi Sawa is rapidly approaching the girl's location.

"Go Shiraishi!"

The expressionless girl forcefully uttered those words the moment Shiraishi Sawa was closest to her.

With just four words, Shiraishi Sawa could sense that the steps of several senior students around him became noticeably unsteady, and one of them even choked on his saliva and coughed.

Soga Kirei seemed to have unintentionally slowed down the pace of the others.

At the 200-meter mark, as he sprinted across the track, Chiyo Ichiin, who had crossed from the starting line, was smiling at him.

"Go, baby dog! Bite them to death! I..."

Shiraishi Sawah ran too fast; he was gone before I could even hear the rest of what he was saying.

After we finish running, I must ask Chiyo what she's going to do, Shiraishi Sawa thought.

At the 300-meter mark, where he was sprinting, was the seating area for the class's audience. Some of Shiraishi Sawa's classmates, some he knew and some he didn't, were there cheering him on.

"Go for it!" "Shiraishi-kun, you'll always be my idol!" "As long as you finish the race, you've won!"

There were too many things mixed together, creating a bit of noise, and Shiraishi Sawa Hide couldn't hear them clearly.

At the starting line, the girl, too exhausted to move, stood there, waiting for Shiraishi Sawa to run into the race. With her hard-won strength, she shouted, "Shiraishi-kun! I'm counting on you! Good luck!"

There were still many scattered fans, including many girls who still admired him, and members of the organizing committee who were wearing armbands and not doing their jobs but cheering him on. Their cheers filled the entire track.

It turns out that cheering is really exciting. Shiraishi Zexiu felt that he should cheer for the other classmates. In fact, his body was already tired at the beginning of the exercise, but the excitement from his cerebral cortex was driving away the fatigue. The excitement told Shiraishi Zexiu to keep running and not stop!

After the second 400-meter race, Shiraishi Sawa was still closely following the leading group.

Shiraishi Sawa felt his pace slowing down, his excitement almost overwhelming his fatigue. But where would it be more reasonable to slow down and fall behind?

In front of Yuko Takanashi, who fought tooth and nail to win first place in the women's 1500 meters? No way, Hideaki Shiraishi would rather die than lose face.

In front of Soga Kirei, who cheered him on in front of so many people? No way. The fact that he made Soga Kirei cheer him on will definitely spread throughout the whole school in a few days, which will be a big problem for both of them. If he slows down in front of her and gets overtaken by a group of people, how can he live up to such special cheers?

In front of Ichiyo, who specially skipped class to come to Mingchuan Middle School to cheer him on? No way. Not to mention that it would be unfair to her efforts, more importantly, he was never as sharp-tongued as Ichiyo. If he were surpassed by her, Shiraishi Sawa would be guaranteed to be ridiculed for half a year without being able to refute it.

In front of classmates? That might be okay? Never mind, the reason is... it's just that the weather is nice today.

There are no excuses for not slowing down. Only when you actually step onto the track and compete with others do you feel a desire to win that you never felt during training.

The real reason why he doesn't want to slow down and can't slow down is very simple: Shiraishi Sawa Hide must seriously give his all when it comes to serious matters!

Gasping for breath to exchange air with the outside world, Shiraishi Sawa tried his best to keep up with the first group.

Congratulations! Your stamina has changed from +2 to +3.

I didn't have time to pay attention to the announcement; we were already in the final 300 meters.

The five people in front of Shiraishi Sawa started to accelerate.

His legs felt like they were filled with lead, and every step he took seemed to be driven by the momentum of his body. Shiraishi Sawa could feel that he and the person in front of him were getting further and further apart.

"Why can't the upgrade in stamina be accompanied by a full stamina replenishment?" Shiraishi Sawa wanted to speed up, but his legs were already out of control.

"Go for it, Shiraishi!" "If you win, then we'll go to Aruba Takagi!" "I promise on behalf of Takagi!" On the last lap, several boys spontaneously started running alongside and cheering them on.

Shiraishi Sawa wanted to respond with a smile, but his mouth was only used for breathing. The faint taste of blood in his mouth gradually rose and began to intensify. Unable to respond, Shiraishi Sawa could only continue running forward.

Sweat beads flew rapidly from his bangs behind his ears. Shiraishi Sawa was unable to turn his head, but he could feel the growing number of his accompaniment group.

"If you bite them to death, I'll wear a bunny girl outfit for you to see!"

On his last visit to Chiyo, Shiraishi Sawa finally heard those words clearly.

Even the supporting group fell silent for a moment.

"Holy crap, wasn't that pretty girl just saying she'd wear a bunny girl outfit for Shiraishi?" "Damn it, I want to see too!" "Takagi, your love power is too weak." "Shiraishi, aren't you going to go for it?!"

.......

Shiraishi Sawa wanted to tell them that he had no more strength left, but he had already come this far, and if he didn't give it his all, how could he face all the people who had cheered him on?

Shiraishi Sawah let out a roar, a roar from his heart that only he could hear.

Shiraishi Zexiu strained with all his might, but his pace slowed down. So he made his long legs take bigger and bigger strides, swinging his arms forcefully. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva that tasted of blood and launched a final sprint.

Get a little closer, get even closer, keep getting closer, you can even surpass it!

Next! And the one after that!

Shiraishi Sawa saw everyone waving to him from the finish line, and he could feel the heavy breathing and encouragement from the boys running alongside him. Shiraishi Sawa sped up again! He overtook another person before the finish line!

He came in second in the school's 1500-meter race for boys and first in the first-grade group.

Chapter 41 The toad needs to be scolded awake.

After crossing the finish line, Shiraishi Sawa was completely exhausted and was about to collapse to the ground.

Fortunately, Takagi Ryo immediately ran over and helped Shiraishi Sawa Hide up, whispering in his ear:

"I'm sorry, Shiraishi. When I ran up here, I saw that tall, beautiful black-haired girl trying to help you, but she stopped coming after I caught up. Why don't you stand there for a while, and then I'll walk away so you can fall down? Or should I just hand you over to her now? As your brother, I can't let you lose your love interest!"

Shiraishi Sawa was panting heavily. Leaning against Takagi Ryo, he walked slowly forward, trying to calm himself down. He had no strength to reply, so he gripped Takagi Ryo's shoulder tightly to indicate that he didn't need to leave it to Ichiyo.

Shiraishi Sawa was secretly relieved. If it had been Ichiyo Ichiri who had come to his aid, and he didn't have the strength to push her away, he would have lost a lot of points. But if he had to say what he regretted, he did have some regrets.

It's all this damn system's fault!

After walking slowly for two or three minutes, Shiraishi Sawah finally recovered a bit and no longer needed Takagi Ryo's help.

When his classmates saw that Shiraishi Zexiu had recovered somewhat, they surrounded him and began to express their praise and admiration for Shiraishi Zexiu winning first place in the first grade group.

Shiraishi Sawa never expected that he would have such a day, but soon all the classmates dispersed because they found that Ichiyo was coming with Soga Kirei. Although they didn't know what the relationship was between the three, they wisely chose to give them some private space.

"Not bad, Shiraishi-kun. It seems my charm is still quite strong." Chiyo winked at Shiraishi Sawa, speaking with a hint of teasing, clearly referring to the bunny girl outfit.

"Stop! Once you enter the mulberry grove, that's not the reason at all. I feel like what you said just excited those bastards who were running alongside me back then, okay?"

"Since it's not working, I won't wear it for you to see. Just pretend I didn't say anything."

"That won't do! Shouldn't the young lady have been taught at home not to lie?"

"Have you forgotten, Mr. Shiraishi? I am a spoiled young lady who doesn't know any manners."

"Oh, whatever you want."

Hideki Shiraishi didn't really insist on this. Even on the streets of Japan, wearing a bunny girl outfit out of nowhere could easily lead to being mistaken for someone from another industry. The main place where Hideki Shiraishi and Chiyo Ichiri met was the supermarket, which wasn't very convenient.

"What are you talking about?" Completely clueless about what the two were saying, Soga Kirei felt isolated and asked them expressionlessly.

Shiraishi Sawa discovered that Soga Kirei seemed to be able to speak in front of Ichiyo.

"Oh, President, it was when I was running that Shiraishi Sawa promised me..." Shiraishi Sawa intended to tell the truth.

“Shut up, baby dog. Young lady needs to be mindful of her image in public,” Chiyo immediately interrupted Shiraishi Sawa, then said to Soga Kirei, “It’s a secret, Soga-san.”

Soga Kirei gripped the mineral water bottle even tighter.

"Hello, President Su, and this beautiful young lady whose name I don't know, and you are... Shiraishi Sawa Hide?"

A male voice suddenly joined their conversation. The three looked towards the source of the voice and saw that it belonged to a competitor who had just participated in the 1,500-meter race.

The third-grade student with a talent for long-distance running, who just won the school's first place in the competition, left the second-place student, Shiraishi Zexiu, by nearly forty meters.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Tadahiro Akimoto, and I'm a student in Class B of Grade 12 at Meikawa Middle School." After all three of them turned their attention to him, Tadahiro Akimoto gave what he thought was a handsome smile and introduced himself.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Shiraishi Zexiu asked after he finished introducing himself.
