Life is hard, and the path you have chosen is very difficult, but there is no other way. In order to survive, no matter how hard it is, you must grit your teeth and persevere. This is the real man.

"General Secretary! General Secretary!"

Um?

When he recovered from his inexplicable state, he found Kintaro Toyama standing in front of him, looking at him curiously.

"What's wrong?"

"You're still asking me what's wrong? Why were you so dazed for no reason just now?"

Kintaro Toyama looked at Souji Hata strangely.

"Oh, it's nothing, I just saw an office worker."

Mr. Bantian sighed leisurely.

"Oh, it's a rare Sunday but I still have to work overtime. It's really hard."

Toyama Kintaro looked at Souji Hatada suspiciously.

"Soji, I always feel like you are complaining that I drag you here with me even though it is the weekend."

Mr. Bantian smiled and said nothing.

...

The two of them came to a temple all the way. Looking at the temple with a bit of history and an indescribable flavor in front of them, Toyama Kintaro said in a daze: "That uncle actually really lives in the temple."

Hatada Souji was not surprised, he just said casually: "Let's go, the agreed time is coming."

"Ryoma, be careful."

"yes."

Echizen Ryoma, who went out with a tennis bag on his back, was stunned when he looked at Souji Hata and Kintaro Toyama standing in front of the door.

"Why are you here?"

Toyama Kintaro dashed forward generously and said hello to Ryoma.

"Hello, ahead of time."

Hata Souji smiled lightly: "Long time no see, Echizen-san, we are here to visit your father."

Visiting dad?

Just when Echizen Ryoma wanted to ask more questions, a very deliberate voice sounded from behind him.

"Oh, are my little fans here?"

Little fan?

Bantian, Souji, and the other three looked at each other in confusion.

Echizen Ryoma: Are you my dad’s fans?

Toyama Kintaro: No.

Souji Hatada: This is the first time I heard about it.

At this time, Echizen Nanjiro appeared at the door, pretending to smile and said: "Come, come, come in, come in, even though you are my fan, don't be restrained."

Then he pulled Souji Hata and Kintaro Toyama into the door.

"Ryoma, hurry up, don't be late for school training."

Echizen Nanjiro smiled, and then closed the door with a bang.

Echizen Ryoma was left outside the door with a confused look on his face.

What... situation?

The people outside the door don't know, and the people inside the door are also confused.

Looking at Echizen Nanjiro, who was leaning on the door and observing Echizen Ryoma through the gap, with an indescribable look of wretchedness, Kintaro Toyama said suspiciously: "Soji, was this the uncle we met last time? So

Do you think the symptoms are serious?"

Before Soji Hata could answer, Echizen Nanjiro turned around and said after confirming that Echizen Ryoma had left, "Hey, red-haired brat, don't talk nonsense. What symptoms are serious?"

"You don't know how strong and perfect my body is."

Seeing the showoff of Echizen Nanjiro, Souji Hatada was curious as to how he managed to cultivate Echizen Ryoma to be so cool despite being such an unconventional person.

"Hey, are uncle's guests here? Hello, I am Echizen Nanako."

Echizen Nanako, who came out after hearing the sound, said generously and gracefully.

"Hello, I am Mr. Hatada."

"Hello, I am Kintaro Toyama."

"Hello."

Looking at the young appearance of Souji Hatada and Kintaro Toyama, Echizen Nanako was confused. Judging by their age, they must be Ryoma's friends.

"Okay, don't waste time."

It seems that he has had enough fun, Echizen Nanjiro becomes a little more serious, with a confident smile on his face, coupled with his sharp eyes, which makes people feel that he is not simple, and at the same time, it will make people feel an inexplicable emotion.

.

I really want to beat this guy up.

To put it simply, Echizen Nanjiro's smile can be summed up in Hatada Soji's opinion: I just like the way you look at me and can't kill me.

This slightly arrogant micro-expression is exactly the same as Echizen Ryoma's.

"Let's go, the red-haired boy and the squinty-eyed boy, you can come with me too."

After finishing speaking, he ignored the reactions of Toyama Kintaro and Hata Souji and walked carelessly towards the temple backyard.

This uncle definitely didn't call me by his name on purpose.

"Okay, I can finally play ball!"

Toyama Kintaro didn't care at all, he cheered and followed.

Hata Souji was helpless, and at this moment he heard Echizen Nanako's slightly apologetic voice.

"Sorry, uncle always talks like this."

Souji Hatada turned his head, looked at Echizen Nanako's face like a hibiscus in water, and smiled lightly.

"It doesn't matter."

Then he followed the pace of the two people in front of him.

Regarding Hata Souji's answer and his tone, Echizen Nanako sighed.

This young man is really mature.

...

In the backyard, looking at the tennis court that was obviously built by himself, Kintaro Toyama shouted in surprise: "There is a tennis court in the yard, this is great!"

Echizen Nanjiro touched his nose with some pride.

"so so."

"How can it be ordinary? If this is the case, wouldn't you be able to play tennis every day when you go home? And you can play whenever you want!"

Toyama Kintaro turned his head and looked at Echizen Nanjiro with envy.

"a!"

Seeing the joy in Toyama Kintaro's eyes, Echizen Nanjiro was slightly moved, and then smiled lightly.

What a special boy.

"Hey! Don't waste time, boy, let's start the game!"

"Okay! This is what I want!"

Kintaro Toyama responded energetically, and then began to warm up.

Echizen Nanako and Hata Souji were sitting in the courtyard not far away, watching them quietly.

Looking at Kintaro Toyama, who was full of energy and said "Hey! Hey!" and pressed his legs energetically, Echizen Nanako smiled elegantly.

"He is really a child full of energy."

Then he said as if talking to himself: "Even though my uncle is usually aloof, and he rarely plays tennis now, he is very strong."

Hata Souji glanced at Echizen Nanako, who was watching the court intently.

This is, give me another vaccination?

"Well, I had the honor to play with Mr. Echizen Nanjiro."

Now it was Echizen Nanako's turn to be surprised, looking at the calm young man next to her.

Has this child also fought against his uncle? No wonder he feels that he is not easy!
