Acting Tips for Conan World

Hattori Shizuka thought about the love letter that arrived in the mailbox at home that year, "Every time He Zhi participated in a competition, there would be girls and boys surrounding the house. Many student competitions with no traffic would invite He Zhi to participate as a ticket guarantee."

"If he goes there, he will win every battle. Even if he doesn't become an idol, He Zhi can become a kendo master with many fans just by relying on his kendo skills."

Hattori Shizuka sighed with some sadness, "I still don't know why that child chose to become an idol."

"Is this so?"

Haibara Ai turned her head and watched a man with the word "Kazami" marked on his protective suit walk to the competition venue and stand with a sword in his hand.

The referee blew the whistle to start.

He Zhi held the bamboo sword in both hands, and when the opponent swung the bamboo sword at him quickly, he swung the sword quickly to deflect the opponent's bamboo sword and hit the opponent's left temple with one blow.

"So fast."

If the referee hadn't waved the flag to give Hezhi a score and the two separated to continue the next round, Haibara Ai wouldn't have known that Hezhi had hit her. It was only after Hattori Shizuka explained it to her that she understood.

After separating, the two men held the bamboo swords and separated to a distance of two bamboo swords' length, and launched an attack at the same time.

This time it was faster. He Zhi stabbed the opponent's throat with one strike. After scoring, they immediately separated and returned to the sword-holding posture.

The opponent just stood there in a daze without reacting at all.

one cent.

one cent.

one cent.

No matter how the opponent struggles, He Zhi will defeat him in one move.

Hit the scoring area, then retreat and get into a good sword-holding posture.

A match lasts five minutes. In the first one or two minutes, the opponent is still trying to fight back, but by the third minute, the opponent has obviously given up resistance in despair.

This game had unknowingly attracted the attention of the entire audience. After the opponent gave up, the referee decisively announced the end of the game.

"This man is so strong!"

"Kazami? Is there such a person as the favorite to win the junior women's competition?"

"no."

"But the swordswoman who won the junior high school and high school kendo championships in the past few years was called Kazami, right?"

"what do you mean?"

"She is old enough to join the youth group now."

"That can't be true... I loved her so much at that time!"

"So this is indeed the dojo where Sword Princess stayed at that time..."

In the competition venue, the audience, who had reduced their attention on the youth group preliminaries due to the end of the high school group finals, turned their attention back to the competition venue.

Haibara Ai stared in a daze as many maturely dressed men and women stood up from the audience and shouted Hezhi's last name.

"No matter what field he is in, he is always a top figure."

//

He Zhi maintained a stable performance of scoring with one hit, from the preliminaries to the finals.

She was competing against a powerful dojo that had often won the championship in the past two years.

"It is indeed a very good dojo, and the teaching level is also very high. It has won competitions year after year, so high-quality students also go to that dojo to study."

The little girl introduced the dojo like this.

He Zhi sat on a chair in the rest area, slowly drank half a cup of salt water, and focused on watching the past game video of the final opponent that the little girl showed her, "Yeah."

This look...

The little girl looked at He Zhi in fascination.

That's the look!

I had no interest in kendo at first, but when I brought lunch to my grandfather and saw his eyes focused on swinging the sword in the dojo, I became interested in kendo!

It’s really beautiful.

It was like a deep pool, calm and deep, as if nothing could shake her goal, and nothing could stop her from chopping down with the sword.

"The finals are about to begin, please get ready!"

After hearing the announcement on the radio, He Zhi screwed on the lid of the water cup, put it back on the table, leaned forward to stand up from the chair, put on a protective helmet, and fastened the straps.

"I'm going."

"Yes Yes!"

The little girl looked at He Zhi's back in fascination.

That's it.

It attracts people to follow her and move forward together.

It was not until the youth group finals were about to begin that Hattori Heiji returned to the audience seats to find Hattori Shizuka.

Okita Souji followed him and said hello to Hattori Shizuka, then started arguing with Hattori Heiji again, "After that, we must have another fight in my dojo. Without you, it will be meaningless to compete with the vice-general of your kendo team."

"what."

Hattori Heiji propped his face up with his arms and looked at the competition venue. "Don't you want to watch the youth group competition? After watching the youth group competition, you probably won't be in the mood to compete with me."

"Youth group? I could have beaten the champion of the last youth group a long time ago. If it weren't for the age limit, I would have preferred to compete with those guys in the middle-aged and young group."

Souji Okita crossed his arms and glanced at the final venue of the youth group with a high-spirited look.

Just one glance and I couldn't take my eyes off it.

"Kazemi?"

His eyes shone brightly, "Is that Kazami?"

"of course!"

Hattori Heiji spread his hands proudly. He had always been very proud of the kendo skills of Hezhi, whom he always regarded as his sister.

Okita Souji immediately pushed Hattori Heiji aside, sat down next to Hattori Shizuka with a smile, put his hands together, and made a gesture of request, "Aunt Shizuka must have the video recordings of Sister Kazami's previous games, right?"

Hattori Shizuka shook her head, "I usually wait until after the game to buy the organizer's recording directly, but Ai must have recorded it, right?"

Okita Souji immediately squatted in front of Haibara Ai again, facing Haibara Ai's stinky face, and forced a bright smile, "Please! Please let me see the video!"

Ah, this sickeningly familiar smile.

Haibara Ai instantly remembered some of Conan's smiling and fancy ways of expediting the antidote.

She held the camera in her arms and glared at the annoying guy who looked like Kudo Shinichi. "You want to challenge He Zhi after the game, right? Recording you now will help you get familiar with her sword moves, but He Zhi has never paid attention to your games."

"It's too unfair, so I won't give it to you."

Okita Souji touched his chin and nodded, "That makes sense. Let's wait until Sister Kazemi finishes the competition before we come back to watch. It's settled!"

After saying that, he ran to the front to watch the youth group finals.

Only Haibara Ai was left there with a puffy face.

Who told you it was settled?

Chapter 192 I've Always Liked You

Being able to obtain the position of the main player in the final in the dojo that has won the championship for several consecutive years, the strength of the opponent is naturally not to be underestimated. Unfortunately, he met the talented Hezhi, just like the men's group meeting Okita Souji and Hattori Heiji.

In five minutes of competition, He Zhi scored a total of 163 points and the opponent scored 6 points.

First four minutes

When He Zhi was highly focused, the opposing player scored a total of two points from her. In the last minute, He Zhi obviously let the game go and gave away 4 points.

The main thing is... in the first game, because he hadn't played for a long time and was overly excited, he mercilessly shut out the opponent and made them cry. So starting from the second game, after gaining an absolute advantage, He Zhi would let up a little in the last minute.

Let's make the other side's score look a little better.

Sitting at the edge of the arena, Okita Souji held his chin with his hand, looking a little speechless. Perhaps because his strength was similar to He Zhi's, he could see clearly where she let the game go.

If she lets him off like this... People with high self-esteem would think she's arrogant. Although not many people can tell that she lets him off.

After the referee announced that He Zhi won the match, Okita Souji couldn't wait to run to the competition venue with a bamboo sword in hand, "Kazami, let's fight!"

Even though He Zhi has become less socially anxious after working in society, she was still shocked by Okita Souji's social status.

Just as he was about to form a reply, his opponent in the final untied the laces and took off his helmet, revealing a sharp, sweaty face. He shouted at Okita Souji: "Idiot, Senior Kazami just finished a match, are you trying to take advantage of him?"

Okita Souji was so excited that he didn't really think too much about it. Hearing this, he rubbed the back of his head awkwardly and said, "Then let's wait until after the awards ceremony..."

"You are such a rude guy who talks to yourself. You are so annoying!"

The woman opposite ignored Okita Souji and returned to the audience with Hezhi on her arm. She looked at Hezhi with interest, "Do you remember me?"

Huh?

Is it someone you know again?

He Zhi hesitated for a while, causing the woman opposite to laugh heartily, "It's normal that you don't remember. After all, I only saw you once during the competition."

...I wonder if your memories should be so good.

Whether it’s the detectives represented by Kudo Shinichi in the anime, Akai Shuichi, Amuro Toru and others, or Okita Souji and the woman in front of him... Why do I remember them so clearly just from a chance meeting so many years ago!

Memory opened a VIP?

What should I do if I completely forgot the periodic table of chemical elements in my freshman year?

"Ever since I was defeated by you in my senior year of high school, I've always wanted to compete with you again. I thought I wouldn't lose. After I knew you became an idol, I thought it was a waste of your talent. But you're still very strong and you've never stopped improving. That's great."

The woman held He Zhi's hand seriously, "I have been following your program, too! Whether it's idol or kendo, I hope you can keep working hard, and I will always support you!"

"Ah, um, um..."

Facing such praise, although she was very happy, she also felt a sense of shame, "Ah, do you have to be so exaggerated?" She struggled for several seconds and couldn't think of how to respond. She could only purse her lips and politely encourage back, "Thank you, your kendo is beautiful, let's work hard together."

The members of the Women's Dojo told her to go back and change clothes to receive the award. She stood up and waved to He Zhi, "Thank you for the four points, senior!"

——Discovered!!!

He Zhi covered her face, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to say.

When she looked up again, she was stunned to find that a large group of people had surrounded her without her knowing when.

"Kazemi-senpai!"

"senior!"

"Senior!"

He Zhi's mind suddenly went blank.

Help, help!!!

//

"It's too much."

Ai Huihara held up her face, looking at the admirers who surrounded He Zhi in three layers, and tapped the chair with her index finger nervously, "Was it like this before?"

Hattori Shizuka smiled, "It's been a long time since we last saw such a grand occasion. I think there was such a movement when Xiao Hezhi was in the third grade of junior high school. Because Xiao Hezhi was very bad at such things, later her fans organized a fan club, and then gradually there were no such things."

Hattori Shizuka was also a stunning figure when she was young, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She turned around and wanted to borrow Haibara Ai's camera to take a picture of little Hezhi's rare embarrassing scene, but she found that the little girl who had been sitting obediently next to her had left the audience and ran towards Hezhi who was surrounded.

Hezhi's operation has exceeded the load, and the social phobia that has been suppressed by the society has regained the upper hand. He just wants to deal with it quickly and go home to hide in the room to be quiet, but there are too many people.

"Sister Hezhi, Sister Hezhi——"

Who... Xiao Ai?

The sound of Huibara calling her name was like a hand pulling her up from the deep sea.

He Zhi looked up and saw Huibara Ai standing on the steps, where she could see her, with her hands raised high, looking at her intently.

"I……"

He Zhi made up her mind and interrupted her admirers, "My sister is waiting for me. Sorry, I have to leave first."

The admirers were all relatively normal people and made way for He Zhi.

He Zhi heaved a sigh of relief, walked to Huihara Ai, held her hand, squatted down as if she had lost all her strength, looked up and smiled at Huihara Ai, "Xiao Ai, thank you for helping me out."
