Atobe is a young master who does not eat fireworks in the world. He is a little better than him, but he has never been to a dangerous place, and he has never opened a hotel room.

Shinobuzu called Shishido first. "Minister, I have something to report to you," he said.

"Huh? It's rare that you call me Minister." Shido said while eating. "By the way, did you skip class today? Yueren said he couldn't find you."

"That's right. Well, I have something to say. I won't be here for the recent training and department work." Renzu said.

"Huh? Hey Renzu, the national competition is about half a month away."

"Don't worry, I will practice hard." Shinozu said. "Also, there's someone here who wants to say hello to you."

Atobe answered the phone: "You're very motivated, Shishido. I'm not here, do you miss me?"

"Ato...Atobe? Ahhh Atobe?!" Shishido screamed.

"Well, Shinozu is with me, you don't have to worry about his training." Atobe said.

"By the way, we are operating in secret, please keep it secret." Renzu answered and hung up the phone with a smile.

The next call was to Yukimura.

"Well, that's it. My uncle is back, but the family didn't know about the secret operation. Over there at U-17, you can cover it up for Ninzu." Atobe said. "If I have time, I want to have a match with you." "

Yukimura agreed one by one.

Atobe hung up the phone and looked at him reluctantly: "Don't you ask him if he knows where to live?"

Atobe frowned. "...Why didn't you say it?"

Sigh. "I'm ashamed to trouble others."

"Of course it's not suitable for me to ask such an unglamorous question!" Atobe replied.

In the end, no one asked. In the evening, Atobe was jet-lagged, and he was sleepy all the time. He almost staggered when he walked. After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and took him to the few hotels he knew.

Atobe stood frowning in the room with suspiciously pink lights and a red heart-shaped ceiling.

"This is a love hotel." Atobe said.

"Should I say congratulations you got the answer right or did you know?" Ren Zu put down the luggage.

Atobe was obviously very dissatisfied with this overly rough and exaggerated style, and looked disgusted.

"If you go to a star-rated hotel, your certificate will be checked immediately after registration." Ninzu explained. "Besides, it's expensive."

Atobe sighed.As soon as he took off his coat, he fell onto the bed.

"I sleep on the sofa." Shinozu said consciously.He washed his face, lowered his voice, sat down on the sofa and started playing with his mobile phone.

Atobe lay on the bed tossing and turning for a while, and said, "Hello."

Ninja raised his head.

Atobe hooked his fingers at him.Renzu walked forward, Atobe grabbed his clothes and pulled him onto the bed.

"Just sleep here," he said, closing his eyes.

But Shinobu didn't want to sleep.It should be time for him to exercise, and he is in good spirits, so he is just accompanying the track department.

Atobe fell asleep very quickly this time, and he was already fast asleep after reading the beginning of a novel by Renzu, snoring evenly.

Putting down the phone, he looked at him.

Atobe fell asleep on his side, with thick dark circles under his eyes, and his eyebrows were locked even in his sleep, so he must have something very serious on his mind.After all, he suddenly bought a plane ticket and flew back across the ocean.

Renzu put the strand of hair hanging down behind his ear, and kissed his tear mole.

Later, Renzu went to buy two cups of instant noodles for dinner.Hui Rina seemed to have finally found out that he had run away, and called him several times, but Yushi didn't answer.Dad also called, but he still didn't answer.

He got Atobu up and gave him instant noodles, Atobe fell into a drowsy sleep, and gave him whatever he wanted, like a child, without complaining, probably because he was really hungry, and even drank the soup.He still wanted to sleep after eating, so he managed to get him up. "If you sleep at night, you won't be able to sleep. Wake up and play ball with me."

Speaking of playing, Atobe finally woke up and opened his eyes. "Ah um..." She still doesn't seem to be sober...

Atobe didn't bring anything, so he remembered to bring a racket, and Shinozu also took his own racket. When the two left the room, the front desk smiled at them ambiguously.Atobe didn't see it, but Shinozu's ears were red.

There is a street tennis court nearby. It is the time when there are many people after dinner in the evening, and many people are waiting in line.

"Hey, Atobe, let's challenge it. You play from this side, and I play from that side. Whoever clears them first will win." Shinozu said. "The one who wins first takes the serve."

Atobe twisted his neck and stretched. "You're bound to lose. Just watch."

Atobe—because obviously Atobe is Atobe—his style is to come up and say hey you guys are too slow, come on.

Ninja shook his head and smiled.Go to the other side and say sorry to the people at the front but if I beat you can I use the court first?

Half an hour later, Atobe cleared the stage, Ren Zuzu was 5 minutes behind him.The warm-up is also done, and we can officially start.

The people who had been defeated just now gathered around their stadium as spectators, whispering to each other, feeling unbelievable at the sudden appearance of this pair of handsome teenagers.

"It's my master's serve." Atobe said, holding the ball and making an aiming gesture at Shinobu.He jumped up and sent the ball over.Tricky angle, a mutant Tannhauser.Enduring a foot tilt, the body leaned down, and the brown bear counterattacked and bounced back.

The crowd let out a burst of exclamation.

"That's how it came up..." Renzu said. "You really are ruthless."

Tracebe laughed. "You're not bad either." Served the second ball.

Atobe...is different from his impression.After two rounds, he wiped the sweat from his brow with his feet.Although he has always been very strong and his skills have no flaws, but how can I say that his aura is not as strong as in previous years?Is it because Renzu has seen too many strong players?

The two got into a fight, the score was tight, and Atobe started using the ice world.Forbearance's lock was of no use to him.

The next moment, a heavy buckle came over the net, and he rushed to catch it, but accidentally slipped and fell, and felt a familiar tearing pain in his knee.

He blocked the ball back but missed the net.

Atobe glanced at him, then sent another shot from the same angle.Ninja completely fell to the ground this time.

"You... hurt your knee?" Atobe asked through the net.

He stood up straight with his feet, supported the ground with the racket, turned his legs, and tried his best to ignore the dull pain in the place driven by his knees.

"Go ahead," he said.Gripping his racket tightly, he looked at Atobe.

Atobe pursed his lips.This time, I used the waltz of disintegration, and I could not bear to let go of the football racket. When I bent down to pick it up, I felt my knees trembling and shaking.

"That's it." Atobe called to stop.

He wiped the sweat off his face.

"Don't do this to me, Atobe." He sighed. "It's rare to have a fight with you."

"Continue tomorrow." Atobe said. "It's not a competition, I'm tired."

This is of course a lie, but Ren Zu couldn't hold on any longer.

The two of them returned to the room, Atobe took a shower first, and then took a shower with patience.When he came out wearing a T-shirt and shorts, Atobe was looking for something in the luggage. After a while, he found a ointment and threw it to Shinobu.

"Knee," he said.

Renzu sat down on the edge of the bed, took out his own bandage, and started applying medicine to tie the bandage without saying a word.

"When did you get hurt?" Atobe asked.He was wearing a tight T-shirt and slacks, leaning on the bed with bare feet.

"A week ago, during the U-17 qualifying match." Renzu replied. "I was injured in an international competition before, and I haven't fully recovered. This time, there is a little stagnant water."

"Take a rest." Atobe said.

Shinobu tied the bandage, tore off the last bit of the tail, and tried to move around.

"My uncle watched your game." Atobe looked at him and said. "You work hard."

"I was begged by you like that, I can't do without hard work." Ren Zu replied. "And I thought that if I could keep playing, I would meet you on the field..."

Atobe didn't speak, but touched his lips.

"Hey, why did Atobe come back?" Shinobu asked while hugging his leg.

"I had a fight with my family." Atobe replied.He took a breath.

"Arguing so much that you fly back from England?"

"What you want to ask is what have I been doing these past few years?"

Renzu nodded.

"I was recovering in the first half of the year, but the doctor said that if I don't change my style of play, the burden on my body will be too heavy." Atobe said. "After that, my family helped me contact a professional player, and I have been practicing with him."

"It's amazing. So there's no need to play U-17 at all?" Shinozu asked.

"It's not that... my family doesn't want me to take the job network path." Atobe said, getting a little heavier. "Letting me learn from professional players also meant that I would give up if I saw it?"

He endured a "no" sound. "So what do you think?"

"Professional tennis... is really difficult." Atobe said, clenched his hands tightly, exerting strength, and his veins burst out.

"But you still have to fight?" Shinobu said.

"Yes. To fight." Atobe replied without any hesitation. "After seeing such a world, it is impossible to quit."

"Is the body okay?"

Atobe paused. "The Emperor of Ice can't be used often. You can only fight up to three times in a game." He shook his shoulder. "I practiced a little too much before, and I got hurt again."

Renzu rubbed his knees. "My family actually doesn't want me to continue," he said. "I'm going to prepare for the entrance exam soon. I probably want to study medicine."

"Will you go?" Atobe looked at him.

"If I get injured again, I may really not be able to play tennis." Renzu said.This is also the first time he has told anyone this result.All the ice emperors are waiting for him to win the national competition for them, but Renzu knows that his limit is approaching.

Atobe reached out and stroked his knee.

"I saw the physics exercises in your bag." Atobe said. "You don't forget to bring your homework when you run away from home. Have you made your choice?"

"...Sorry." Shinobu said.

"You don't need to tell me." Atobe said, pulled his leg, paused, leaned forward, and touched his face with his hand.

Ninja lowered his eyes. "But I want to tell Atobe." He whispered, turning to meet Atobe's lips.
