There was a crisp sound, and the arrow flew out from the released hand.
There is drizzle in the sky, and the grass in the dojo is swaying slightly on the soil.
Sakakibara looked at the target that was shot under the curtain in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and took out an arrow from the quiver at his feet.
Fly out.
Bang...
Crisp hit tone.
"Oh! I'm in very good condition today." Masahiro Hata, who had just come in from the dojo, was carrying a bow bag and said with a smile to Sakakibara who was in the shooting position.
"It's okay."
Sakakihara did not turn around to reply. Instead, he calmed down and drew an arrow with a green tail from his side.
He nocked an arrow and drew the bow, tense his arm muscles to draw the bow string, and aimed his sight at the target under the rain.
The fingers loosened.
Bang...
Hit again.
"Good afternoon, Minister Tianhai!"
Hata Masahiro saw Tiankai Jiuri coming from the other side of the dojo.
The girl's clean figure in the kyudo uniform made him straighten his back.
"Good afternoon," Tianhai Jiuliuli responded with a smile and nodded gently, "Why are you so nervous? I'm not a bad person."
"No, no, no, this is respect for Minister Tianhai!"
Hata Masahiro smiled with his teeth and said in a very bright voice, "Minister, do you have any goals today?"
Tianhai Jiuliuli held her chin and thought for a while:
"No, there haven't been any competitions recently. You can just train according to your own ability. If you have any questions, you can ask me. Although I am not a teacher, I should be able to give you some suggestions."
"Minister Tianhai is so humble! Minister Tianhai is the only fourth-dan player in our club!"
"Okay, okay, I told you not to be so serious."
"Yes! Minister Hai, I went to change my hakama clothes that day. I will try my best to shoot 50 times today."
"Okay, come on! Be careful not to hurt your hands." Tianhai Jiuliuli showed a heart-warming smile.
Hata Masahiro was moved by Minister Tenkai’s words, thinking that Minister Tenkai must be too good!
But Minister Tianhai is still an iconic beautiful girl...it’s simply irresistible!
Cut...
Seeing the back of Hata Masahiro walking into the locker room, in front of the shooting position in the dojo, Kobayashi Ansai glanced disdainfully. Ever since the new chief came, this guy has become as energetic as a chicken.
Although Minister Tenkai is indeed beautiful, Hata Masahiro is a guy who has not understood the four words "A straight shot will hit" at first glance.
What does a straight shot mean?
If you have no distractions, then your shot will hit the target!
If you don’t have a woman in your heart, you can shoot accurately!
He is a man who wants to inspire his way to the top of the country.
Before this goal is achieved, women are just drugs.
Amami Jiuri came to Sakakihara Raku with a long bow and asked quietly: "How do you feel about the new breathing method I taught you yesterday?"
"It's very useful, but it takes some getting used to."
"Yes, changing the rhythm you are accustomed to requires long-term exercise."
Breathing techniques cannot be practiced overnight.
Not to mention that the Japanese bow is completely different from the competitive bow. The breathing method used is completely different. The breathing method of kyudo is much longer and the breath is much longer.
Moreover, the Japanese bow is long at the top and short at the bottom. Compared with the traditional recurve bow, the performance is not excellent at all. From a modern perspective, it is more to match the etiquette of kyudo.
Etiquette is quite complicated and troublesome.
Bang...
Hit again.
The target in front of Sakakihara Raku already had six arrows. He stopped and began to watch the movements of Amami Kuruuri next to him.
The girl placed the arrow on the string, spread her legs forward and backward, and faced the target in front. She pulled the string with her right hand and held the bow with her left hand. She raised both hands in an elegant movement like a swan standing on the lake.
When she released the string with her right hand, the ethereal sound of the string pushed the arrow straight into the target.
Sakakihara Raku has been studying kyudo for several years and knows that everyone’s string sound is different.
Most of them are harsh, like a "click"-like linear sound.
But this was the first time Sakakihara Raku heard such a smooth and quiet string sound like Jiuri.
......
"Then let's go first, Minister Tianhai."
"See you tomorrow, Minister Tenkai, Sakakibara-kun."
"Well, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
Because the rain started to fall heavily, everyone in the club began to go home one after another. Today, Tianhai Jiuliuli was on duty at the archery field. He was mainly responsible for mopping the floor, putting away the bows, and taking out the targets from the shooting range.
Put it down and put it back into the dojo.
There were many people who wanted to help her, but they were all rejected by Tianhai Jiuliuli with a smile.
Raku Sakakihara stayed with her until the end.
Because the target was on the lawn, Sakakihara was responsible for holding the umbrella for her, and she took down the wooden blocks from above.
When they walked back to the dojo together, Tianhai Jiuliuli asked him:
"Brother, how do you feel about today?"
I don't know why, but now when he faces Jiuliuli... he can always think of the scene where she stretched out her hand to hold her collar.
He looked at the rain on the lawn and was recalling that scene, when his thoughts were interrupted by Jiuliuli's voice.
He thought for a while and replied:
"Accumulate daily."
"Accumulation through daily practice...? That's a very good answer." Tianhai Jiuliuli held Mu Dunzi in his arms, "For my brother, what does archery mean? In other words, why does my brother want to learn archery?"
"It's very simple. Interest means working hard with the attitude of learning something new."
"Interesting..."
"Where's Jiuliuli?"
"I...I like the atmosphere of archery more," Tianhai Jiuliuli walked under his umbrella, "I like the tranquility of raising a long bow and looking at the target, I like to focus my eyes a little, and I like to listen in my ears.
The breeze, I like the smell of grass and earth coming in the wind... and the crisp sound of "stretching" when you let go of the bow string is very pleasant."
Seeing that the wooden target in Amami Kuruuri's hand slipped, Sakakihara Raku quickly stretched out a hand to help her hold it.
"Sorry, I didn't hurry up just now."
"How about you hold an umbrella, and I'll take the remaining ones back."
"How can this be so embarrassing...Okay then." Tianhai Jiuliuli looked at him who was taller than herself, suddenly thought of his identity, and quickly changed his mind.
The two people exchanged tasks, Sakakihara Raku held the wooden target, and Amami Kuruuri held an umbrella for him.
"Do you feel like we don't look like brothers and sisters now, but like strangers we just met?"
Tianhai Jiuliuli nodded: "Yes, there are some."
"What's Jiuliuli's impression of me?"
"It's very good, even great... Every day when I wake up, I see my brother preparing breakfast for us."
"No, these are really nothing."
"No, Jiu Liuli thinks that brother should understand how difficult it is to prepare breakfast for us every day, not to mention that you prepare different meals according to the tastes of me, Qi Mingyue, and Ling." Tianhai Jiuliuli held an umbrella for him, with a bright smile on her face.
"Besides, I also like the way my brother cooks, the seriousness with which he cuts vegetables, and the care with which he prepares ingredients. When I help him, I find that he will handle the fruits and vegetables very cleanly, and then
Just started cooking for us."
"It's just a habit..." Sakakibara said, placing the target on the wooden board of the dojo, and then turned back.
"It's a habit for my brother, but it's not for us. When we eat those delicious meals every day, I feel a little sorry when I think about my brother getting up early and working till late at night to prepare them for us..."
Jiuliuli is really a very gentle person.
She is so gentle that people can't help but want to look away and are embarrassed to look at her.
"Let's do this! Brother, can you try to teach Jiuliuli how to cook?"
"Of course there's no problem with that."
"Well, I will come to the kitchen to help every day from now on. Brother, please don't dislike me."
"Haha, who would dislike you?" Raku Sakakihara also laughed.
In fact, if you get closer to Jiuliuli, you can find that she still has the feeling of a little girl and a sense of vitality.
While Sakakihara Raku was picking up the buckle of the target, he was actually thinking about the scene when Kuruuri was arranging his collar in the mall.
For some reason, that scene always lingers in my mind.
Holding up an umbrella under the small tree at the entrance of the kyudo gate, Sakakibara let Amami Kururi stand beside him with a small schoolbag.
"Except for dad, this is the first time I stand under the same umbrella with a boy." Tianhai Jiuliuli raised her eyes and glanced at the tip of the umbrella dripping with raindrops.
"You should treat me like a family member. Jiuliuli, I want to ask you a question."
"Brother, please speak."
"Qi Mingyue...isn't she a very lonely person? I don't mean any harm, I'm just asking."
"It's not that she is lonely. I just feel that she always reads alone and eats lunch alone. She is a bit lonely."
Tianhai Jiuliuli thought about it for a moment: "Brother, what he said seems to be a bit...but she shouldn't care about it at all. In her words, a person is pure."
Raku Sakakihara thought of Mingyue's slightly lonely expression in the afternoon.
So...did she even hide her twin sister?
The Kyudo Club is not far from the club building. Amami Nanami, who was waiting in the corridor on the first floor, soon saw the man holding an umbrella with his twin sister.
The girl's delicate little face is full of peace.
......
"Smelly Lele! Why haven't you replied to the message yet!"
At the same time, Suzu Sakakibara stood under the student building and looked at the gray sky with a depressed look. According to the previous situation, Suzu Sakakihara should have come to pick her up at this time!
What is he doing now?
Why don't you read the news?
Suzu Sakakihara glanced at the dozens of unread messages on the screen of her phone, "Brother!", and then glanced worriedly at the dark clouds filled with raindrops above her head...
It's now around six o'clock, and the school is completely empty, with not a single student in sight.
Because of the bad road, Sakakihara Suzu asked Tianno to go home alone, and before she left, she confidently said to her: It's okay, my brother will pick me up later!
Therefore, Sakakihara Suzu has been waiting under the school building without an umbrella.
From four o'clock to five o'clock, from five o'clock to six o'clock.
It was nothing at first. She knew that her brother had a Kyudo club activity to attend, and she probably put her cell phone in the closet if she couldn't contact her. But now, most of the students have gone home, and she still didn't have a reply.<
/p>
She couldn't wait any longer and wanted to brave the rain to go to the Kyudo Club to find her.
But just as she walked out of the teaching building and came to a green tree, and was about to rush out around the trees around the teaching building, she suddenly saw three shadows under an umbrella in the direction of the school gate.
Because that umbrella was the umbrella that he had sent to the company a few days ago, and because the figure on the back was that of his brother, Sakakihara Suzu recognized it at a glance.
Sakakihara Suzu held her hand on the tree and stared at the backs of the three people huddled under the umbrella and leaving together for a long time.
Looking at the shadows of the three people fading away in the rain, Suzu Sakakihara looked down at the mobile phone in her hand that had sent dozens of messages.
She raised her hand and sent another message to Sakakibara.
Waited for five minutes.
Yes...
Still no response.
Looking at the three figures who disappeared at the school gate, Suzu Sakakihara suddenly felt abandoned. She hugged her legs and squatted under the tree.
In the past, on rainy days, I never forgot to ask myself if I had brought an umbrella...
"Smelly Lele...picked up both of them but didn't pick up me...who is your biological sister..."
——————
Sakakibara Raku, Amami Nanamigetsu, Amami Kuruuri and the others returned home. The first thing they did when they got home was to take out the charger to charge their mobile phones. Shortly after turning on the phone, they found dozens of lines sent to them by Sakakibara Suzu.<
/p>
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Why are you posting so many lines?
Today is Wednesday. Didn’t she leave school early to go to work in the afternoon?
I casually replied to her, "What's wrong?".
And I was going to give her a call and ask her why it was so urgent.
"Brother, don't think too much about what happened in the afternoon... Qi Mingyue is fine alone."
When Tianhai Qimingyue said this, her vision was wandering, her eyes were squinting, and she was holding her shoulders with her hands.
Sakakibara understood that Nanamigyue was pretending to not care about her.
"Since Qi Mingyue thinks it's good to be alone, why do you still ask me to go to the Literature Club in the afternoon? Since you think having one more person is troublesome, then you will most likely refuse A Ling to join the Literature Club."
"As a sister, I can't refuse the matter of sister-chan."
Sakakihara laughed and said: "Well, let's do this. I won't go to the Literature Club in the afternoon."
"You'd better come..."
"What?"
"I said...brother, it's better to come in the afternoon." Tianhai Qimingyue raised her voice slightly, her face a little rosy with embarrassment.
Sakakihara Raku has a smile on her face.
Although Qi Mingyue is a little vindictive, this feeling of refusing to welcome is still quite cute.
Looking at the backs of the three of them when they go to school in the morning, Sakakihara Raku can feel a sense of responsibility that is shouldering a heavy responsibility. As an elder brother, he should take care of them more.
Tianhai Qimingyue turned around, and a calm voice came from her petite back: "I'm going back to the bedroom first. Call me after dinner."
"Okay."
Tuk Tuk.
The sound of knocking on the door.
Sakakibara walked to the entrance and opened the door, his expression was stunned.
In front of her was Suzu Sakakibara, who was wearing school uniform and was all wet. Her wet hair was sticking to her cheek. She was holding her left arm with her right hand. The rain had covered up the smell of her body. Her eyes were staring at her feet blankly, and her face looked very pale.<
/p>
"A Ling...? Aren't you in the office? Today is Wednesday."
"Company...? Wednesday...?"
Sakakibara Suzu pursed her lips slightly, raised her face that was soaked by the rain, her purple eyes were locked on Sakakibara Le's face, her face was full of dissatisfaction, her throat rolled for a while, and she shouted angrily:
"Smelly Lele! You didn't pick me up when you took Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli home! Who is your biological sister!!"
