Chapter 117: Chance
Encounter, Chance Encounter Again
Natsume's face showed a look of laughter and tears while he was still in the air. At the last glance, he also saw the flash of smile in Sesshomaru's eyes.
——Well, if I can make Sesshomaru smile, my "sacrifice" is worth it.
Natsume comforted himself in his heart, and then his eyes darkened and brightened again, and he had returned to his own time.
"Grandpa, I heard a sound coming from the bone well. Is my sister back?"
Suddenly, Natsume heard Higurashi Sota's surprised voice in his ears, and then there was the sound of footsteps.
Natsume didn't want to let the people of Higurashi Shrine know that he could travel back and forth between two eras through the bone-eating well, at least not yet, so he put his toes at the bottom of the well and floated up in an instant.
Then he disappeared in a flash. At the same time, the door outside the small shrine was also opened. Higurashi Souta and his grandfather Higurashi rushed in in a hurry, looking anxiously into the bone well.
"Eh, no one?"
Grandpa Higurashi said with a disappointed look on his face.
"How is this possible? I clearly heard a sound here!"
Higurashi Sota didn't believe it. He looked carefully in the well for a long time, but finally found nothing. Of course they couldn't find anything. At this time, Natsume had already We left the confines of Higurashi Shrine and walked on the way home.
Originally, Natsume wanted to go home directly. After all, he had been away for a week. Compared with the previous two days, he had been away for a long time this time.
Natsume never told Tomoe before going there that he would be gone for so many days. He would definitely be worried and angry.
While thinking about how to appease Tomoe's inevitable anger, Natsume's nose suddenly smelled a familiar aroma.
——Maybe I can bring something back to coax Ba Wei!
The familiar aroma instantly gave Natsume an idea. He turned around without hesitation and entered a nearby store.
"Welcome."
The waiter's polite voice became more sincere after seeing Natsume's handsome appearance.
"Give me a piece of fried tofu."
Natsume said to the waiter.
Yes, this shop sells fried tofu. Fried tofu, like wine, is Ba Wei's favorite.
"Please wait a moment, guest."
The waiter said sweetly. She was filling Natsume's fried tofu while thinking to herself that she was so lucky today. She actually saw several handsome guys in a row, which is rare in normal times. , after all, those who come to buy fried tofu are usually housewives.
"Natsume?"
Someone suddenly shouted, with a hint of doubt and joy in his voice.
"Tezuka."
Natsume turned his head to look at the boy who spoke, and nodded lightly.
In fact, Natsume had already seen Tezuka Kunimitsu, who was in the store before, but he was talking to his companions, so Natsume did not interrupt him rashly.
"My grandpa likes fried tofu very much."
Tezuka Kunimitsu seemed to explain. When he saw Natsume, the hard expression on his face seemed to soften a bit.
"The same goes for my Ba Wei."
When it came to Ba Wei, Natsume's eyes flashed with tenderness. Although the fox demon in his family was very virtuous, he was also very arrogant!
Tezuka Kunimitsu was in a very good mood for meeting Natsume by chance today. You must know that Natsume goes to street tennis courts less and less now. They are not from the same school. It is really not easy to see him. Easy things.
Just as he was about to say something else, the boy who came with Tezuka Kunimitsu, perhaps unwilling to be ignored, took the initiative to express his presence.
"Hello, we meet again, Natsume."
The young man said with a smile, completely different from the stern Tezuka Kunimitsu.
"Hello, Fuji."
Natsume replied politely.
Yes, the boy with Tezuka is none other than the genius of Seigaku Tennis Club, Fuji Shusuke.
——
"Isn't your school's tennis club not training today, Natsume?"
Fujisuke looked at Natsume's uniform and asked, looking for words.
To be honest, when I met Natsume today, not only Tezuka Kunimitsu, but also Fuji Shusuke was in a good mood. Of course, the reasons why he and Tezuka Kunimitsu were in a good mood were completely different.
Having been a companion with Tezuka Kunimitsu for more than two years, Fuji Shusuke didn't know him completely, but he could also be said to know him vaguely. Even when he was dealing with fellow tennis club members like him, Tezuka Kunimitsu only acted politely. It's just a little warm towards strangers, but it can't be called enthusiasm at all.
Fuji Shusuke knew that Tezuka Kunimitsu actually attached great importance to the tennis club and his teammates in the tennis club, but he just didn't show it because of his personality.
Fuji Shusuke has always thought so, and he has never doubted his own guess as a genius.
However, what happened a week ago made Fuji Shusuke know that his understanding of Tezuka Kunimitsu was not as deep as he thought.
It turns out that Tezuka Kunimitsu can also laugh. It turns out that Tezuka Kunimitsu can also be very enthusiastic, as long as the person is that boy, that boy named Natsume Takashi.
In the previous friendly match, when the rival school came out, the entire tennis club except Tezuka Kunimitsu was very surprised.
——Japanese Metasequoia School? Is there still such a school in Tokyo?
Many members of the tennis club felt puzzled.
It's not surprising that they were surprised. Metasequoia was really too ordinary, with average academics and ordinary clubs. The annual tennis tournament almost never entered the national competition, so it naturally didn't attract the attention of teenagers.
Of course, there were exceptions. When Coach Ryuzaki said the name Metasequoia School, he took out his notebook and introduced the situation of the Tennis Club of Metasequoia School.
Nothing special!
The teenagers who heard this became even more curious.
Then, with everyone confused and curious, the Qingxue Tennis Club came to Metasequoia School.
——Then
, all the members who were lucky enough to be selected as contestants were lucky enough to see another side of their minister, a side that was not iceberg.
Watching Tezuka Kunimitsu smile lightly at the boy named Natsume from the Tennis Club of Metasequoia School, to be honest, many people's jaws dropped at that time. Even Fuji Shusuke, who had always been calm, squinted his eyes without realizing it. The earth is open!
This shows how frightened the people in Qingxue were!
The rest of the game was even more topsy-turvy. The other Metasequoia players were just as the teenagers imagined, with average strength, but the boy named Natsume... well, it was the first time they saw their minister lose with their own eyes
. Competition, and his opponent is not a minister from a famous tennis school, but just an unknown player from a weak school!
How can a few words describe the shock?
Chapter 118 Good News
Everyone in the Seigaku Tennis Club had never thought before that in an unknown school like Metasequoia, there could be players with such high level of tennis. Only then did Ryuzaki and other main players know why Tezuka Kunimitsu chose Metasequoia as this player. friendly match opponents.
Because of this person, Natsume Takashi!
Yes, it was worth it. Even if the other matches were below the standard, just the match between Tezuka Kunimitsu and Natsume, they felt that this friendly match was too successful!
Especially the gossip about Tezuka Kunimitsu!
Perhaps for some teenagers, the last reason is the most important. It is the gossip of their iceberg minister, which even if you have money, you can't see it!
After the game, when the winner Natsume and the loser Tezuka Kunimitsu shook hands and then looked at each other and smiled, that scene was forever left in the mobile phone of a certain boy named Gan, becoming one of his most precious collections.
Later, that photo was also collected in Tezuka Kunimitsu's photo album as his precious treasure.
Of course, that's all for later.
Now Natsume and Aogakusho are still chatting in the store.
"I don't know."
Natsume didn't make excuses to deal with Fujishusuke, and directly answered "I don't know." This made the smile on Fujishusuke's face freeze at first, and then immediately became a little brighter - this is an interesting
boy Well, as the ace of the tennis club, you don’t know if your school’s tennis club is training today?
In other words, did he not participate in ministry activities at all?
Fuji Shusuke calmly glanced at the expression of Tezuka Kunimitsu next to him, and found that his expression had not changed at all. It seemed that this incident was completely expected by him, and he did not feel anything was wrong at all!
This discovery gave Fujisuke a deeper understanding of Natsume's importance in Tezuka Kunimitsu's heart.
That is Tezuka Kunimitsu, who has a strict personality. Even if the teacher makes a mistake in class, he will point it out without mercy. He is even more strict with the members of the tennis club.
Such Tezuka Kunimitsu didn't react at all after hearing Natsume say that he didn't go to the club for no reason? Shouldn't he dislike people who don't follow the rules the most?
Is there something I don't know about here?
Fuji Shusuke's curiosity was aroused.
Originally Fujisuke wanted to find out something more from Natsume's mouth, but Tezuka Kunimitsu's next words gave him a heavier "bomb" than he imagined.
"You didn't go to school?"
Tezuka Kunimitsu looked at Natsume, his eyes were not disapproving, but worried:
"What are you busy with?"
In fact, Tezuka Kunimitsu has asked Natsume many times, but Natsume's answer every time was...
Natsume didn't give him a surprise this time, she gave him the same thing as before.
"It's just some personal matters."
Natsume looked at Tezuka Kunimitsu and knew that he cared about her, but it was impossible for him to tell Tezuka Kunimitsu about that matter. Not only was it a question of whether he would believe it, Natsume also felt that it was completely unnecessary. Pull him into another world.
In this world of ordinary people, Tezuka Kunimitsu lives a good life, and this is enough.
"Alas..."
Tezuka Kunimitsu sighed inaudibly. Although he had expected that Natsume would not tell the truth to him, he still couldn't help but be disappointed.
The reason why he knew that Natsume didn't go to school and not just didn't participate in club activities was because Tezuka Kunimitsu knew that as long as Natsume went to school, no matter whether he chose to go to the tennis club or not, their director would take the trouble to teach the tennis club that day. Tell him the schedule of activities.
Therefore, as long as Natsume goes to school, it is impossible for him not to know whether there is any work in Natsume's tennis club today.
These are some small details that Tezuka Kunimitsu and Natsume have gradually discovered in their relationship over the years.
——It
doesn’t take much time to pack two packs of fried tofu. While talking, the waiter has already packed Tezuka Kunimitsu and Natsume’s fried tofu.
In fact, the waitress had slowed down in order to look at the handsome guy for a while longer. Unfortunately, the store manager was also in the store. Even if it was a delay, she did not dare to go too far.
Holding the wrapped fried tofu, Natsume nodded to Tezuka Kunimitsu and Fuji Shusuke, and left first, leaving their conversation behind.
"When did you meet Natsume, Tezuka?"
"A long time ago."
"His tennis level is so high, why is he so unknown? He can obviously choose a strong tennis school." "
That's not his ambition. ."
"I really want to play with Natsume. Seeing the match between the two of you makes my blood boil with excitement!" "Natsume won't compete with you." "Oh, really?" "
Yeah
.
"
"I will definitely find a way to get him to agree to compete with me." "
You will definitely not succeed."
"..."
Natsume doesn't care whether the two young students are talking about him or not. What he wants most at this time is to immediately Go home and see Ba Wei.
Natsume's wish came true quickly, and just as he expected, Tomoe was very worried and angry about the fact that he stayed in the Warring States period for a whole week. Even if Natsume "bribed" him with fried tofu, he I ignored him for a whole night.
However, for Tomoe, one night of cold war with Natsume was the limit. From the next day, Tomoe's attitude towards Natsume returned to the same as before, taking good care of him as usual.
Facing such Tomoe, while being secretly moved, Natsume also repeatedly lamented his soft heart.
If the monsters who died at the hands of Bawei knew that someone put the word "soft-hearted" on the demon fox Bawei, I wonder if they would be so angry that they would run back from the underworld!
——Natsume
came back this time not only to appease Tomoe, but also for a more important purpose—
to find a weapon for Sesshomaru!
Yes, Natsume had this idea. Since he did not have such a large intelligence network and strength to find powerful weapons in the Warring States Period, he could start from modern times.
After operating in Hyundai for so many years, the power behind Natsume cannot be underestimated!
I have to say that Tomoe is really too virtuous. Although he disliked Sesshomaru from the beginning and wished Sesshomaru not to exist from the beginning, when he saw Natsume's distressed look, he still held back his anger. Feeling uncomfortable, he took the initiative to help Natsume search for him.
I don’t know whether it’s because Ba Wei has a wide social circle or because he’s just lucky. Just three days after spreading the news, he already got good news, good news about the whereabouts of a famous sword.
