Chapter 623 An Unintentional Love Chapter
After a long while, it was Hanyu Kusunoki who spoke first, interrupting the two people's game of "one, two, three, statue".
"Master, who is this?"
He walked up to Ikenami Shizuka with a curious look on his face.
In fact, he knew very well the identity of the woman opposite him. She was Tiejian's mother and also the opponent that Ikeba Jinghua had lost to for half his life.
Um......
If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for his appearance, Ikeba Shizuka would probably have lost her whole life.
Ikebo Shizuka leaned slightly and introduced softly, "This is Tsubaki Michiko. We were rivals in school back then."
Michiko Tsubaki looked at Hanyu Kusunoki back and forth for a while, and after a moment, she smiled and said, "Senior Jinghua, who is this?"
"Hanyu Kusunoki, my only closed disciple."
Ikeba Shizuka spoke in a calm tone with a hint of pride.
In fact, there is only one disciple she truly recognizes from the bottom of her heart, and that is the traitor with bad intentions beside her.
As for Kazuha, who also wanted to become her apprentice, she decided to accept her because of Hanyu Kusunoki.
In response to this answer, Hanyu Kusunoki added something silently in his heart.
He is indeed a closed disciple, the kind that closes at night.
"So he's Senior Sister Jinghua's apprentice. I watched the match just now. He's really talented. Senior Sister Jinghua, you've taught him well." Tsubaki Michiko praised Hanyu Kusunoki, but with a hint of provocation in her eyes that was barely perceptible.
What she meant was that your apprentice is indeed talented, but it is just talent, not because the master taught him well.
After all, someone's swordsmanship in the competition just now was really not good enough.
Ikeba Shizuka pretended not to understand, and responded calmly, "Thank you for your compliment, Michiko, but Xiaonan is still better in this competition."
Yes, she didn’t teach well, but her apprentice won.
No matter how much you say, I just have one thing to say: my apprentice won, and that’s the fact.
Tsubaki Michiko was speechless for a moment, and she couldn't even keep her smile on.
Sure enough, no matter what the losing party says, it all sounds like an excuse.
She held her forehead helplessly. Just as she was about to say something else, Hanyu Kusunoki interrupted and said, "Okita-san is indeed very strong. I just won by luck this time. I believe that with Aunt Michiko's careful guidance, Okita-san should be able to catch up with my current level in ten years."
Michiko Tsubaki: “…”
It took ten years to catch up to the current level. What a conceited statement.
When Okita Souji, who came down from the competition stage with the girl, heard this, his face darkened, but he had to admit that he really couldn't catch up with his level in a short time.
What’s even more infuriating is that this guy hasn’t even mastered his swordsmanship yet, and relies entirely on his amazing talent and brute force.
The child is a weakling, but he has strength and talent.
..........
Michiko Tsubaki left, taking her daughter, son-in-law, and the first failure in her life with her.
He walked as gracefully as the wind.
Victory and defeat are common in the military. Anyway, I have already defeated the senior so many times before. What’s the harm in letting her have one chance occasionally?
Ikenami Shizuka looked at the gradually receding figure of Tsubaki Michiko and breathed a sigh of relief, a sigh of relief for the anger of being chased and killed for decades.
Over the years, I have been suppressed by Michiko Tsubaki, but now I can finally hold my head high.
"Master, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief now."
Hanyu Kusunoki winked mischievously at the side.
"Silly boy, no one can win all the time, and you must not be proud and complacent just because of a temporary victory." Ikebo Jinghua gently shook her head, with endless tenderness in her eyes, "But I still have to thank you, Xiaonan."
"Hehe~ We are one as master and disciple, no need to thank you." Hanyu Nan waved his hand and said firmly: "Besides, I am here. From now on, I will not let you lose again!"
When the young man said this, he was full of energy and high spirits.
He may not have realized that this casual promise was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples for Ikebo Shizuka.
Ikebo Jinghua stared blankly at the young man in front of her. She was a little dazed for a moment, her breathing became disordered in an instant, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.
I never thought that a young boy's sincere words could make me so moved.
After realizing her own gaffe, she slowly lowered her head, hiding her face in the shadows, and at the same time hiding the affection in her eyes.
Her mind was confused.
...
Outside Langhua Central Gymnasium.
"Nan, let's go celebrate!"
"Yeah, yeah! Let's go have a good meal! I know a restaurant nearby that's really delicious!"
The group discussed where to go for dinner to celebrate in front of the gymnasium. After some discussion, they finally decided that He Ye would lead the way to the restaurant she mentioned.
The morning competition ended and Teitan Academy advanced to the finals.
As for the other match in the morning, which was between Hattori Heiji's Kaikata Academy and another academy, no one mentioned it at all, let alone went to watch it.
The final is scheduled to start at 2pm.
Until then, they can still celebrate.
As for who will be the opponent in the final, they don’t care at all, because no one can be a match for their Nan anyway.
At this time, in the toilet of Langhua Central Gymnasium.
Hattori Heiji was hiding inside and calling his good friend, "Kudo, where are you? After you get off the bus, look for the Naniwa Central Gymnasium. After exiting Shin-Osaka Station, take the bus to Higashijiri for seven stops..."
"Oh, I get it. I'm not a child. Aren't you tired of saying it so many times?" On the other end of the phone, Conan, who was on the high-speed train, looked impatient.
He frowned, his eyes constantly looking at the rapidly passing scenery outside the window, while at the same time he did not forget to lower his voice, for fear of being heard by the people around him.
"Sorry, I can't help but talk a lot when I think about how you look now." Hattori Heiji smiled. For some reason, Kudo looked so cute at this moment.
"Okay, I get it, don't call me anymore."
Conan secretly glanced at Maori Kogoro who was still sitting in front of him reading a newspaper. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, he continued in a low voice: "How is it? Did Hanyu Kusunoki make it to the finals? Can I still catch up to watch the finals?"
"Don't worry, the finals don't start until 2 o'clock, you will definitely make it in time. This is a rare opportunity for us to teach Hanyu Kusunoki a lesson, just wait and see how I perform!"
Hattori Heiji was very confident, and even Conan believed it.
In other words, these two detectives have a mysterious self-confidence. They fail over and over again, but they keep fighting and never give up.
Whenever Hanyu Kusunoki sees them, he always praises them.
I guess when Fish Leong wrote "Courage", she was inspired by watching these two people in person.
After hanging up the phone, Conan walked back to his seat.
Looking at Kogoro Mouri, who was sleeping in a state of disarray next to him and reeking strongly of alcohol, he rolled his eyes and looked full of disgust.
If I had known earlier, I would have come here with Xiaolan.
Following this drunk uncle, not only did he have to sit in an ordinary seat, but he was also forced to smell the pungent smell of alcohol along the way. He felt his stomach churning and the feeling of motion sickness became more and more intense.
Think again about the private luxury room that Xiaolan posted yesterday.
Conan sighed deeply.
Again. I envy Hanyu Kusunoki's day.
