Chapter 134, Come on

Time is up.

Players from both teams stood still, waiting for the whistle.

From the opposite direction, you can hear the little girls singing in unison, "Go Group E," "Fighting!!", etc. The girls' chorus is so crisp that it makes my heart itch when I hear it.

Too bad that's the opposite side.

The distance between them is two hundred meters.

Group B was quiet. It seemed that after the fight with the boy, the audience and the students watching had calmed down.

The momentum is much weaker.

It's a pity that Kanda is preparing for track and field and can't come here to cheer.

“I feel like I’ve lost before the game even starts.”

Utsunomiya Shuo's eyes were fixed on the girls standing in a row two hundred meters away, cheering for Group E.

Youthful.

"and then."

Zero stood beside him.

"No more." Utsunomiya Shuo shook his head.

"Does winning or losing matter?" Zero said.

"That's right. Friendship first, competition second." Zhuo nodded.

That being said, if he really loses, he will be very embarrassed! !

Even Zero can't carry him? For example,

Hearing this, Ling turned his head to look at him, raised his head, then retracted his gaze and said lightly.

"Then just do the same as everyone else." Zero said calmly.

"What?" Zhuo couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Zero didn't explain anything else. She slowly turned sideways and looked to the right of Utsunomiya Shuo... To his right were the other members of Group B who were participating in the tug-of-war... She didn't know if it was a coincidence, but when Zero looked at them, they all looked at her.

Zero was silent for a few seconds as if in a daze.

Subsequently.

"Come on." Romanov's words were like a gust of wind, floating into the ears of the tug-of-war players.

The volume seemed very low in the noisy and empty playground, and it could not be heard from a little further away. But everyone fell surprisingly quiet.

Utsunomiya Shuo's expression was one of doubt and confusion, and he even took a half step back.

Is this the Zero he knew?

However, those juniors and seniors who were looking at Zero, when they heard their favorite seniors or juniors cheering them on, were stunned for a few seconds in disbelief, and then their faces flushed red as if they were injected with chicken blood.

“Ahhhhhh——” One of the students had a particularly protruding disc in the waist. He couldn’t control himself and started pounding his chest like a gorilla, making strange noises.

The younger students who were encouraged were full of energy, like warriors about to go to the battlefield to fight to the death, rubbing their hands and eager to try. They stared at the referee with eyes that were about to spit fire, as if asking: Why don’t you start yet?
"It's really effective."

Utsunomiya Shuo withdrew his gaze expressionlessly.

Eyelids drooped.

Zero seemed to notice something, and tilted his head and raised his chin to observe his expression.

Zhuo stared ahead.

Then, the whistle blew.

Members of both sides rushed towards the hemp rope in the center of the grass like porcupines breaking out of a pigpen.

Utsunomiya Shuo ran in the middle position, neither fast nor slow.

Zero ran beside him.

The first ones to rush in from Group B and Group E were all boys. They grabbed the ropes almost at the same time, and then started to tighten the ropes... Then more and more members joined in.

Zero ran in front of the rope and stood at the first position.

As agreed, Zhuo stood behind him.

In his hand was a hemp rope for tug-of-war, in his eyes was Zero's body leaning backwards, at the tip of his nose he could smell the floral scent of Zero's commonly used shampoo, and from the opposite side and behind him were deafening slogans.

Getting louder and louder...

……

"Team B tried their best."

The students in the audience sighed and started talking.

"I say, the people in Group E want to win too much. There are basically no girls like Senior Romanov. Are they all athletes? That's too much!"

"This is not Group E's fault, it's Group B's fault. Romanov cheered them on, but they still lost."

"It's probably because she has some intentions towards Romanov. Everyone wants to win her favor, so she's distracted."

"Doesn't that mean we have to work harder?"

"How should I know?" Utsunomiya Shuo listened to every word.

The tug-of-war was lost. It seems that this is the limit of Shiuto Tsugumi Yuu's power. After all, tug-of-war depends on teamwork. It is difficult for an individual to turn the situation around... But if someone just slacks off, the winner will be immediately clear.

Then, seeing the dejected members of Group B lying on the grass, no one dared to look at Zero’s expression.

In fact, it is unnecessary.

Because that girl wouldn't care about that kind of thing.

Utsunomiya Zhuo thought about it, then turned around and slowly left the venue.

Ling picked up two bottles of mineral water on the ground and chased after him.

Everyone on the grass looked at her helplessly as she left without saying a word. Each of them was like a rooster with its neck strangled when crowing, wanting to scream but unable to make a sound.

The sports festival continued in an orderly manner after the tug-of-war ended.

Fun games and competitive games start at the same time.

boom--

The starting gun sounded in the distance, and the boys and girls spread their legs and sprinted forward.

The wind blew, blowing on the foreheads of young men and women and lifting their hair.

The dark clouds were gradually blown away by the wind and the sun came out.

The temperature gradually rises.

In a cool corner where the sun doesn't shine, Utsunomiya Shuo leaned against the wall, took the bottle of mineral water that Ling handed over, and then looked at the boys and girls who were crossing the finish line one by one in the distance, and said absentmindedly: "What a pity."

Ling unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a gulp, screwed on the cap, and asked.

"Tug of war or track and field."

On the track in the distance, Tomokazu Kanda finally crossed the finish line in sixth place.

He is not an athlete, so this result is already pretty good.

"Speaking of the sun," said Utsunomiya Shuo, "it's going to be very hot this afternoon."

"Yeah."

Zero put down the water bottle without caring, then leaned against the wall like her.

Utsunomiya Zhuo handed over the mineral water in his hand.

Zero looked down.

"Help me unscrew it." said Zhuo.

"..."

Ling raised his eyelids to look at him, then took the mineral water, unscrewed it, and handed it back to him.

Utsunomiya Shuo tilted his head back and took a big gulp, then kept his face up, looked at the sky that was illuminated by the sun again, and asked.

"zero."

"What."

"I heard that you haven't been helping others unscrew bottle caps recently?" Utsunomiya Zhuo asked calmly.

"It was rare before." Ling put away the mineral water and turned to look at Utsunomiya Shuo, "It seems to have only happened twice, just by chance."

It's a tacit admission that this is no longer done.

The two of them knew the reason very well.

"Twice in total." said Utsunomiya Shuo.

"..." Ling paused and repeated Zhuo's revised statement, "Twice."

"Come to think of it, the cheering effect today was really good. Even though they lost, it felt like they were all energized." Utsunomiya Shuo said something unrelated.

"..." Zero looked up at his face, looked away for a while, and said calmly: "Come on, I won't do it anymore."
