About the fact that I unintentionally raised my sister to be a cripple - Chapter 120 Kyudo Qualifiers (End)

July 2, Saturday, was a rare sunny day since the rainy season.

The sky after the rain is always filled with a special freshness. This morning, the players from the Kyudo Club who came to participate in the qualifiers gathered early.

Mr. Sakahara, the consultant teacher of the Kyudo Club, changed into sportswear and watched everyone get off the bus one by one.

“Everyone, slow down. The game doesn’t start until nine o’clock. There’s still time to take a rest.”

Team competition consists of 5 players and 1 substitute.

Single match with 8 people.

Mixed doubles match, 2 people.

These are all the players from the Kyūdo Club of Meitoku Junior High School competing in the Tokyo Division.

Seventy-five high schools, a total of 981 contestants. There are nearly a thousand people here, and only the top twenty high schools can enter the official competition and have a chance to qualify.

The preliminaries were held in the gymnasium of Tokyo Sports University. Before half past eight, the school was already crowded.

The bus was parked all over the playground, and sports uniforms of various colors and 2-meter-long bow bags were intertwined among the figures.

“There are a lot of people coming this year.”

“Kyudo is not a niche hobby?” As the deputy minister, Masahiro Hata was the first to ask.

“Who told you?” Xiaolin Anzhai took out the longbow placed in the bus, walked over and said, “According to the statistics of the National Kyudo Federation, there are many more members registered for Kyudo than the Kendo next door.”

“It’s like this. What’s the reason?”

“The reason should be that we have many female members here,”

Kobayashi Ansai looked at Amami Kuriuri who was standing under a tree in front of him with Sakakibara Raku, “No girl likes to swing a sword loudly in the summer covered in sweat. Kyudo is relatively stable and calm.”

“Safe? Please spare me, senior. In the past month, I have almost died in practicing bowing.”

“too tired”

“I don’t know how many days I will be in pain when I practice archery every day. When I get home at night, I can’t even hold a cup of tea.”

“It hurts.”

Several first-year students in the team competition complained.

“I said, how many of you are there?”

Kobayashi Ansai looked calm, holding a two-meter-long Japanese bow bag in his right hand. He closed his eyes and had a stern expression. He actually had a bit of Guan Gong’s aura. “Can you learn from Sakakibara? He draws the bow 100 times a day, which is the basis of the basics.” , 5 bow strings were broken, how many times do you have every day, 70 times?”

“Sakakibara that’s Reiwa’s monster!”

“I’m accompanied by Minister Tianhai.”

“I’m so jealous.”

Several people looked forward at the same time. Amami Kuruuri and Sakakibara Raku were standing under a tree at the entrance.

“well”

They sighed in unison.

“Brother, come on, don’t be nervous.” Tianhai Jiuri lowered his voice and said to Sakakibara Raku with a smile.

“Definitely.”

“Everyone! Everyone from Mingde Elementary School! Come here!”

A senior from the Kyudo club called the contestants together.

“Although we are not participating in the competition, everyone in our Kyudo club will still work hard to cheer for you! The entire Kyudo club is here today just to cheer for you! Even in the qualifiers, we must go all out. !”

“Oh! No problem! Senior!”

“One thousand percent strength! Use all your strength!”

“Oh!”

Everyone wearing sportswear with [Mingtoku Elementary School Private High School] written on the back put their hands together.

“1, 2, 3!”

“come on, come on, come on!!”

At 9 a.m., the three events started shooting together.

Sakakihara Raku and Amami Kururi stand on the same platform as eight other high school men and women.

The rules of the doubles competition are very simple. There are two rounds of shooting, a total of forty arrows, and the one with the highest score advances.

A total of 157 people (including substitutes) participated.

Sakakibara Raku and Amami Kuriuri are about to rank among the top 20 among these 157 people and 75 colleges and universities.

After actually setting foot on the qualifiers site, being watched by various directors and referees of the Kyudo Association, and then standing on the same stage with several other schools that he didn’t know at all, Sakakibara couldn’t help but recall the first time he set foot in a formal competition. of tension.

Now, he is still a little uncomfortable returning to the competition.

During the stay together, Jiuliuli’s hit rate has always been 99%. Today she hit all 20 targets without any problem.

The key lies in yourself.

The first round of shooting begins, with the boys firing the bow first.

The difficulty of the mixed men’s and women’s games compared to the singles games is that they are not affected by the shooting teams next to them.

You must draw the bow in rhythm with your partner.

When shooting with a partner, be sure to be prepared to draw the bow in advance.

As soon as the partner’s arrow is fired, one’s own arrow must also be shot after the matching shooting action is completed.

Sakakibara took a deep breath, picked up two green arrows, spread his feet flat, and turned his body slightly sideways, looking at the bullseye in the distance.

Complete the eight sections of shooting one by one, aim at the target 28 meters away with the half-moon method, and hit (di) in one shot.

Tianhai Jiuliuli followed his movements and shot the second arrow grandly.

“yoshi!”

Everyone in the Kyudo club shouted enthusiastically in the audience.

But before they started shooting, the rest of the team had already opened their bows and started shooting the third arrow.

The vibration and sound caused by the bowstring disturbed the minds of some players, causing them to lose sight of their aim and miss the target one after another.

In the entire A area, some people had one arrow, some had two arrows, and some had three arrows.

It is precisely maintaining the rhythm with your partner in this chaotic two-person match that is the highlight of this event.

“It was so fast just now. He must be from the martial arts system.”

Raku Sakakihara heard the male player from the high school team next door lowering his head and chattering, and he had just missed an arrow.

Boom.

Hearing the string sound and the target sound of Amami Kuruli next to him, Sakakihara Raku also quickly recovered his mind and calmed down.

It’s time to get a bow.

He cleared his mind and blocked out the sounds of hits from other schools.

He pushed and pulled the bow with both hands, and the straight arrow feathers flew past his face.

At the same time, Suzu Sakakihara eagerly sat next to Nanami Nanami.

Today she wore a trendy combination of pink jacket + shirt + bow + short skirt. She also specially wore sneakers and the beret that Sakakibara gave her before.

“Has it started? Has it started?”

Tianhai Qimingyue didn’t look at her, she just stopped the note in her hand recording the target information, “Sister-chan, you are late again.”

“I just slept a little longer!” Sakakibara Suzu took out the snacks she brought, “Look what I brought, it’s a croquette! Do you want to take a bite.”

“If you eat too much, you will gain weight.”

“What, how can I get fat?” Suzu Sakakihara took a big bite of the croquette in one bite.

“Glutton.”

“What a hen!” Suzu Sakakibara swallowed the croquette, “You don’t know, when I was a child, I would even cherish the tofu eaters, how can I be like you, the eldest lady from a rich family! Uncle Tianhai is right You guys are so nice, you get whatever you want.”

“Didn’t dad also buy you a big TV?”

“Hehe, but I feel like I seldom talk to Uncle Tianhai. I also think he is quite nice.”

“Dad is a man who doesn’t understand surface gentleness.”

“Is it?”

Sakakibara Suzu glanced at the playing field, and she immediately spotted her brother Sakakibara Raku.

Wearing white clothes and black hakama, his movements are standard and serious.

Every time he and Jiuliuli hit the target, people cheered.

“Brother is quite handsome.”

“Sister-chan, how do you think your brother and sister work together?”

“It’s good. Although I don’t understand it very well, I can still see that their cooperation is very rhythmic. The cooperation of several schools next door is chaotic.” Suzu Sakakihara happily ate snacks and responded happily.

Amami Qimingyue closed her hand and recorded some notes, and asked: “If my brother falls in love, do you think my sister-chan will change his behavior?”

“Haha, he said in May that he wanted to fall in love, but it’s already July and there’s no news at all.”

“Sister-chan doesn’t seem too worried.”

“What am I worried about? He is my brother. What am I worried about? Well, that’s right.” Sakakihara Suzu crossed her arms and nodded to herself.

“My sister-chan thinks that she can’t find a girlfriend based on my brother’s conditions.”

“Yes, I just can’t find him! He only knows how to study, run and cook. How can he know about love?”

“Brother, I don’t understand, but the so-called love is a learning process,” Tianhai Qi Mingyue stated the facts without emotion, “In other words, it starts with nothing.”

Here, Tianhai Qimingyue definitely stated his hypothesis:

“Brother may fall in love soon. Sister-chan, where will you put yourself then?”

Sakakihara Suzu’s eyes wandered as she spoke. She squeezed the croquette bag in her hand and murmured in a very weak voice: “It doesn’t matter if he is in love. Even so, he likes that person very much. He will never forget that I am his biological sister. Not long ago, he even brought me water every day.”

Amami Nanami knows very well that Sakakibara Raku’s personality has taken care of Sakakibara Suzu for more than ten years, and Sakakibara Suzu has put countless things in his body.

So much so that his younger sister can’t cook, she only acts coquettishly towards him, and doesn’t like other girls approaching him.

He is a 100% brother-controller.

These things are like barnacles firmly attached to someone’s body. If you try to remove them, you will definitely bleed.

Sakakihara Suzu suddenly became angry:

“Why are you talking about this? Isn’t my brother busy with the game now?”

“It’s nothing, I just want to know your reaction after knowing that your brother is in love.”

“You said it was a hypothesis! A hypothesis! Wait, do you know who he likes?”

“.” Tianhai Qimingyue did not answer.

“What style of girls does he like? Hum, it must be fake, right? You definitely don’t know either.”

“Sister-chan, shouldn’t you have been prepared for this?”

“Well, if I really like a girl, and that girl is pretty, has a good personality, is not annoying, and really likes me, I will still bless him!”

After talking to this point, Tianhai Qimingyue understood that A Ling usually looked silly.

But she also has a very clear understanding of her own heart.

Although she said the last sentence very generously and openly, this was under the premise that Sakakihara Raku still took care of her wholeheartedly.

“No! Why am I telling you this! It’s his business to fall in love and it has nothing to do with me!”

Tianhai Qimingyue: “Sister-chan is very busy with work recently, right.”

“Well, what’s wrong?”

“I see that your Twitter followers have also increased a lot. This shows that your career is on the rise recently. I suggest you focus more on dubbing. Most firms in the industry know you.”

“Everyone knows that I am a person. Why does it sound weird? Do you want to drive me away? Then let me make you potato chips and fried rice every day?! I won’t be fooled!”

“.”

Amami Nanamigetsu just cast her calm eyes on the bow dojo. She looked at her sister and Sakakibara Raku drawing bows, and she didn’t know what she was thinking.

The qualifying round has come to an end.

In the doubles match, each person has twenty arrows, for a total of forty arrows.

After a round of shooting, Sakakihara Raku finally knew what the lethality of Tianhai Jiu Liuli was.

Reporters’ cameras were filming her, parents’ cell phones were filming her, and even the boy next to her who was holding a bow couldn’t help but glance at her.

Of course, this resulted in the unlucky guy missing several arrows.

If you want to shoot arrows, shoot them well! What a beautiful girl!

No wonder Senior Kobayashi always said, “Kyudo doesn’t need women.”

Out of forty arrows, Sakakibara Raku lost three.

Tianhai Jiuliuli, who thought he would hit 100% of the time, actually missed an arrow.

However, winning thirty-six times still allowed Mingde School to rank among the top three in the doubles competition list.

The list of scoreboards is as follows:

1. Kanto Gakuen High School of Arts and Sciences 37

2. Myeongde Elementary School Private College 36

3. Universities affiliated with Tokyo Sport University 34

20. Sunrise High School 26

In more than 70 colleges and universities, a hit rate of around 55 can rank among the top 20, which is enough to illustrate the difficulty of archery.

If there are no accidents, the winner of this event will basically be among the top 5.

It’s just that the appearance of Mingde School surprised those in the know.

You must know that the top 5 schools are basically old and strong schools, and you can see their shadow almost every year.

And Mingtoku Junior High School, an aristocratic school known for its difficulty in getting into higher education and getting into school, could actually achieve such dazzling results.

Second in the pairs event.

For singles, there are fourth, fifth, eighth and nineteenth.

The team competition was relatively average, and I was barely selected in the top fifteen.

But overall, it can be said to be a great victory!

After the competition was over, everyone in the Kyudo Club of Akita Junior High School excitedly discussed how regretful the arrow was.

Said it would be nice if the wind was lighter at that time. As long as the wind is gentle, I will never miss the target.

Because of the arrival of their two younger sisters, Sakakibara Raku and Amami Kuruuri did not plan to go back to school with their classmates.

After briefly saying goodbye to his classmates who went home to find their respective mothers, Sakakibara Raku reunited with Suzu and Nanamigetsu.

“Brother~~ did you miss me?” Sakakibara Suzu jumped up and down, stepped on Sakakibara Le’s side with one foot, and reached out to hug his arm.

“What are you doing? You’re outside.”

“Hmm, what’s going on outside? We are a family that loves each other!” Suzu Sakakihara giggled and held his arm coquettishly.

The arrogant sister turned into a clingy sister.

To be honest, she is like a piece of candy and is really hard to get rid of.

Fortunately, the boys from the Kyudo club didn’t see it, otherwise they would have said “You guys are deliberately showing off your girls in front of us!”.

It’s simply unfair!

It’s obvious that the younger sister is showing off her older brother.

What’s so good about my sister?

What else will it do besides bouncing around on your head?

Alas, what a pity for yesterday’s rabbit.

Haven’t had success yet.

“Brother! What are we going to do later? I still have two hours to accompany you!”

“It sounds like I need you to accompany me.”

“What? You have a super invincible and cute sister to accompany you, and you’re still not happy? Humph, you damn ghost~”

Sakakibara was about to vomit blood and asked with black lines on his head: “Then what do you want to do? It’s best to tell him quickly.”

“Hehe, while you are free now, how about we buy a cage for Rich Rabbit?”

“Going to a pet store?”

“Yeah! I can also treat you to ice cream.”

“Are you crazy today?”

“I’ll hit you!”

When pulling Sakakibara Raku away, Sakakibara Suzu looked back at the Amami sisters who looked exactly the same.

Between Tianhai Jiuliuli and Tianhai Qimingyue, she chose to raise her eyebrows at Tianhai Qimingyue.

“Hmph~”

A very simple and straightforward provocation.

Then she held Sakakibara’s arm and walked towards the subway station.

“Stupid sister.” Tianhai Qimingyue stroked her forehead and shook her head.

The two of them quickly walked away. Sakakibara seemed to want to call them back, but was forced back by Sakakihara Suzu.

“Come on, sister, let’s follow.”

“Wait a minute, July.”

“Um?”

“Brother, does he like me?”
