The heart that had just jumped quickly fell downwards, with a numb tingling sensation.
But her body still acted faithfully according to the thoughts in her mind:
"Are you blocking me in a place like this just for such a boring thing?"
Karuizawa Megumi pushed Kitagawa Ryo's arm away, leaned against the wall and hugged her arms, tapping her right foot impatiently on the ground and asked.
"I just feel that Karuizawa-san's behavior of betraying an ally is inappropriate."
Kitagawa Ryo was not annoyed. He seemed not to be aware of the crowd approaching behind him, and there was nothing unusual in his tone.
"If you were Ichinose from Class C, you might still be qualified to say these things, but Kitagawa, based on what you, Class B, did on the uninhabited island, you are just saying these things shamelessly."
Karuizawa Eru, a first-year student from Class D, fought back forcefully as she imagined. Although she was a head shorter in height, her aura was not weak at all:
"Do you think Beichuan will lose the duel with our Class D?"
"Tsk."
As if Karuizawa Megumi had poked a painful point, Kitagawa Ryo smacked his lips helplessly:
"If it weren't for the help of our Class B, you, Class D, would have been defeated by the second graders."
"Didn't Class D help in the fight against the second years?"
Karuizawa Megumi raised her eyebrows. She wiped the corners of her eyes with her hand calmly and raised a smile:
"It seems that Beichuan you are worried that you will be expelled from school."
"Then that's not your concern."
Kitagawa Ryo shook his head gloomily:
"Even if you, Class D, took advantage of this, Class B has not lost yet."
"So what you should do now is go to the playground with me to compete in the last event, instead of blocking me here and threatening me."
Karuizawa Megumi responded unceremoniously, confronting Kitagawa Ryo:
"It seems that Beichuan you don't have much confidence in the last item. Also, such a little trick is useless after being played once. Whether you or Long Yuan, in the final analysis, they are just using some dirty tricks. Class D will surpass Class B sooner or later."
"Then I really have to wait and see."
Kitagawa Ryo also sneered. He turned around just in time and "discovered" the students of this class who were approaching.
"Hiyori, let's go."
Returning to Shiina Hiyori, Kitagawa Ryo didn't care about the Class D students who were glaring at him, and greeted the Class B students who were following him:
"Win the last round with me."
"Um."
Shiina Hiyori didn't say any words of encouragement. She just nodded lightly and reached out to hold Kitagawa Ryo's left hand.
Karuizawa Megumi turned his back, and Class B and Class D parted ways in two directions, choosing to enter the competition venue from the east gate and west gate of the playground respectively.
----------------------------------------
"Class A of the third year won. After winning Class A of the second year, Nagumo must have a headache now."
Because her brother Horikita Manabu was involved, Horikita Suzune's tone was more lively than usual. Just when the first-year Class B and the first-year Class D were fighting to the last round, the duel between the third-year Class A and the second-year Class A seemed to be The winner has been decided.
"Yeah, and I've seen him."
Karuizawa Megumi knelt down and tied the red ribbon to his right foot and Horikita Suzune's left foot, constantly checking the tightness:
"Right in the middle of the sixth row on the left side of the auditorium."
Following the instructions of Karuizawa Megumi, Horikita Suzune also cast her gaze over there, and sure enough she saw the figure of Horikita Manabu. Even though he was sitting there, his back was still still, and he was quite conspicuous in the crowd.
Because this round of duel is basically over, many classes are focusing on this final battle between Class B and Class D.
After all, Kitagawa Ryo from Class B in the first year has almost spread his reputation throughout the school after defeating Nagumo Masa twice and then being recognized by Horikita in public.
Therefore, when Kitagawa Ryo and Shiina Hiyori came to the starting point of their trip, many senior students looked at the intimate behavior of these two people and asked about their relationship with some frustration.
Then they learned about their relationship and that the drone show on the last day of summer vacation was their confession ceremony.
Most of the girls cast envious glances at Hiyori Shiina, and they also enthusiastically discussed the performance of this couple [two on three legs].
The two-person three-legged event has been a fixed event in the past sports festivals of Tokyo Advanced Education High School, but it is rare for a boy and a girl to sign up. One reason is that there may be a height difference, and the other reason is that this sport is considered Classified as relatively ambiguous, physical contact between the two of them must be inevitable during this period.
So couples are the best solution for two people with three legs!
This legend was not broken until a certain couple had a problem with their three-legged cooperation, which first led to a quarrel and then to whether their compatibility was really suitable for each other and finally broke up.
Therefore, many senior students are looking forward to the long-lost couple.
Coupled with the crucial final life-and-death battle, it is simply full of attractions and elements.
"You won't lose!"
At this time, Sudo Ken waved his arms and shouted:
"Class D will definitely win in the first year!"
Under his leadership, all the students in Class D of the first year also shouted slogans together. They were so eager to win against Class B of the first year.
Ryo Kitagawa standing there has been the nightmare of Class D since the beginning of the first year. If he can be defeated...
Yosuke Hirata, who has always been steady, was a little excited. In this sports festival, Class D became more and more like a group. This group atmosphere of cheering together almost made him squint in enjoyment.
"Class B will definitely win in the first year!"
"Boss Beichuan is invincible!"
"Betraitor Class D, please let me lose!"
Seeing their opponent being so arrogant, Class B of the first year on the side fought back without fear, even raising their voice a lot louder. When it came to class points and expulsion, the students on both sides completely forgot about fighting side by side in the morning and exchanged words with each other. Spray, before the game even started, the smell of gunpowder on the field was already strong.
"Win games with me, beat him."
Karuizawa Megumi looked at Horikita Suzune beside her. She believed that the opponent's strong desire to win against Kitagawa Ryo would be the key to turning things around, so she chose Horikita Suzune as her partner.
"We will definitely win."
Horikita Suzune nodded.
They have no reason to lose. This event was originally provided by their first-year class D. The two of them also practiced countless times during the one-month preparation for the sports festival, and there is absolutely no problem with their tacit understanding.
[Boom]
As the starting gun sounded, Megumi Karuizawa and Suzune Horikita took the first step forward.
Why must you choose to win Ryo Kitagawa?
This question flashed in Karuizawa Megumi's mind.
At the moment when she crossed the starting line, Karuizawa Megumi realized the deepest answer in her heart.
This is an idea so ridiculous that it would make people laugh when told:
Because she hopes that one day she will be stronger than Kitagawa Ryo, and then she will protect him.
Just like he used to protect himself.
What a ridiculous idea.
How could Ryo need to protect himself?
But maybe one day it will happen.
Just treat it as a fantasy made by Megumi Karuizawa himself.
If such a day comes, she will stand in front of the other person, not behind him.
ps: The final chapter is really difficult to write. This chapter has been revised and revised until now. Anyway, I tried my best to write about the psychological changes. If you still feel that the emotional change is abrupt, I'm sorry, I have indeed tried my best.
ps2: From the beginning to the end of this volume, Megumi Karuizawa has always had the most scenes, and she is also the character I have been writing with all my heart. The scene where Bidong acted corresponds to Chapter 23 of this volume.
ps3: Thank you for reading and subscribing. There are only two final chapters left in this volume.
Megumi Karuizawa's Autumn Memorial: Chapter 80: Win, Lose
As the name suggests, two-person three-legged is a track and field exercise in which one person's left leg and another person's right calf are tied with a band. Compared with ordinary sports, two-person three-legged is often used as an entertainment sport. In sports The festival plays a role in regulating the atmosphere.
After all, this is a sport that extremely tests the tacit understanding of the contestants. As long as one person fails to cooperate well, there will often be a famous scene that makes the audience laugh and the referee is dumbfounded, because there is a rule that after falling, you must return to the starting point and start again. , so even though the distance is only a short hundred meters, it is normal for some teams to spend two or three minutes unable to reach the key point.
However, since the first-year class D has reported the two-person three-legged event to the school as one of the three team events in the class, it means that Karuizawa Megumi is ready.
Therefore, in a two-person three-legged race, the most common mistake of falling at the start did not occur to the first-year class D duo. The two adjusted their breathing rhythm and pace almost in an instant, whispering Chanting slogans like "one, two, three", if you look at it from the side, it just looks like a person walking fast.
"If there is no problem at the start, then the next step is to see the frequency conversion in the middle."
The first-year class B class instructor, Sakagami Suma, sat in the audience of his class and analyzed calmly.
As a veteran class teacher at Tokyo Advanced Education High School, Sakagami is quite familiar with the [Two-Two-Three-Legged] competition, which was a fixed event in sports festivals in the past.
"The first key point for the two-person three-legged race is the start. What you need to pay attention to is the width and timing of the start. Neither Kitagawa nor Karuizawa had any problems with this."
Seeing the puzzled looks from the students in his class, Sakagami Suma quickly explained:
"Two people and three legs must be an acceleration process. After adapting to each other's rhythm, in order to widen the gap, they must increase their own speed. Coupled with the influence of the opponent next to them, there will be a subconscious urge to speed up the pace. The idea, if it were a normal race, it would be okay to think like this, but the two of them are different in three ways."
"Two people must be in sync, even if they are accelerating. If one person's rhythm is messed up, at least they will be forced to stop for a while to readjust the rhythm, and at worst, they may directly cause a fall."
The students in Class B of the first year listened to the well-founded analysis of their class teacher, nodded their heads and cast worried eyes on the field.
Sure enough, as Sakagami Suma said, after the initial starting stage, both classes began to accelerate in unison.
But they soon discovered something was wrong. At this stage of acceleration, the two sides that were originally neck and neck gradually opened some gaps, and the one left behind was actually the combination of Kitagawa Ryo and Shiina Hiyori.
Sakagami Shuma also had sharp eyesight, and he spoke first and pointed out the key to the problem:
"It's the height."
Although the two-person and three-legged events are more entertainment-heavy in nature, they are also divided into subcategories. They are roughly divided into three categories: male and female, female and male, and mixed male and female.
Generally speaking, it is unlikely that the combination of girls and girls versus boys and girls will appear on the court, because there is a gap in the innate physiological conditions between men and women themselves.
For example, the [height] pointed out by Sakagami's horse counting.
The height difference between Karuizawa Megumi and Horikita Suzune is almost the same, so the width of their steps is also similar, making it easier to find a common rhythm. However, there is about 20 centimeters between Kitagawa Ryo and Shiina Hiyori on the other side. The height difference, although for a couple, this height difference is not too big, but if they are doing a threesome with two people...
It only takes a moment to understand that the height and length of Ryo Kitagawa's steps must be different from Hiyori Shiina's. Of the two, the faster one often needs to actively cooperate with the slower one, otherwise it will easily cause the other person's center of gravity to become unstable. , increasing the risk of falling.
Although Hiyori Shiina has worked very hard to move forward in strides, the innate discomfort caused by the height difference still hinders the speed of some of the two, so they lag behind.
"Of course, don't worry."
Unlike the worries clearly visible on the faces of the first-year Class B students, Sakagami Shuma took off his glasses leisurely. He took out a deerskin cloth from his pocket and wiped the surface of the lens:
"Situations like this have happened in previous years. Some classes even send out a combination of tall boys and short girls."
"Ah? Wouldn't this be a disadvantage? How can you run like this?"
Ishizaki Daichi opened his mouth in disbelief.
"It's simple."
Sakagami finished wiping his glasses, put them back on his nose, and smiled:
"Just let the boys take the lead."
Kitagawa Ryo's left hand hugged Hiyori Shiina's shoulder. In fact, his hand had been there since the start of the race, but at this time, the action changed from "holding" to "hugging". His fingers gently exerted force, Shiina Hiyori also took advantage of the situation and leaned against Kitagawa Ryo.
"Hold up."
After saying this, Kitagawa Ryo half-hugged Shiina Hiyori in his arms, and moved his right palm down to the girl's slender waist.
The next moment, Kitagawa Ryo accelerated instantly.
He forcefully took over the dominance of the "foot" that the two of them were tied together. At the same time, he exerted force with his right arm, causing Shiina Hiyori's body to tilt a little more toward him. This posture made the girl's left The feet were almost hanging in the air, and at the same time, the right foot that was tied together was driven by Kitagawa Ryo's power. The whole person was led by Kitagawa Ryo and ran almost without touching the ground.
Just as the experienced Sakagami Suma guessed, Kitagawa Ryo had no intention of competing for the two's tacit understanding from the beginning. Karuizawa Megumi and Horikita Suzune were obviously well prepared, although he didn't feel that he was compatible with Ryo either. How much will they lose if they have a tacit understanding, but the time and energy the two of them spend on [two people and three legs] will definitely not be as good as the other party's combination, so it is better to just adopt a more convenient method.
In this position, rather than saying that Ryo Kitagawa and Hiyori Shiina are running on three legs, it is better to say that Ryo Kitagawa is running alone with a load on his back.
Although it consumes a lot of physical strength, the effect is obvious.
Under the exclamations of the audience on both sides, the speed of Kitagawa Ryo and Shiina Hiyori's duo was almost twice as fast as before, and in the blink of an eye, they evened out the gap with Class D of the first year.
This running method only exists when a man and a woman are paired, and the relationship between the two parties cannot be bad. After all, from the perspective of outsiders, the girl is like a koala hanging on the boy, and the posture is really ambiguous and charming to the extreme. .
In fact, Shiina Hiyori's face was pressed tightly against Kitagawa Ryo's chest, and he could even hear the other person's heartbeat, one after another, as if it was hitting his heart.
