Chapter 77: A Comparison
"Alas... I don't know if it's right or wrong."
Watching Shang Shanyou leave from him, Ban Lao's eyes, which had been narrowed all the time, slightly opened. From the news from U17, he knew that the tide of this era had begun to change.
"Akuzu, go find your own path..."
Thinking of the rebellious little guy who injured the physical education teacher, Ban Lao smiled in his heart. Originally, he was going to act as Akutsu's guide, but... it's fine like this now.
"After all, Yamabuki cannot give Akutsu, this giant dragon, a stage to soar..."
A sigh revealed his helplessness.
After getting Akutsu's information and address, Uesugi Yu didn't stay for long and went straight to his house.
After taking several subway stops and walking around for a while, Uesugi Yu finally found Akutsu's residence in a small street.
This apartment building doesn't look very new and has only five floors. Shangshan You went upstairs and rang the doorbell directly at the door of room 401.
soon.
After a series of crackling sounds, a pleasant female voice was heard from inside the room.
"Here I come~"
After opening the door, Yuuki Akutsu looked at the boy outside in a daze.
"Who are you?"
A trace of doubt arose in his mind. He didn't seem to know the boy in front of him, nor did he seem to be his neighbor.
"Hello, Aunt Yuuki. Sorry to bother you. My name is Uesugi Yuu, and I'm Akutsu's friend. I'm here to see him..."
Uesugi Yuu is very shameless. Even though he has never met Akutsu before, he still says this shamelessly.
"Hmm? Are you Jin's friend? Ahem... And don't call me auntie, just call me Miss Yuuki."
A look of surprise first appeared on Yuki Akutsu's face, and then she coughed twice and corrected Yuu Kamishima's address.
"That Yu-Yuuki-san seems to have something stuck in her."
Uesugi Yuu's nose twitched, it was obvious that Akutsu Yuki was still cooking in the kitchen.
"Oops!"
With a soft cry, she turned around and rushed into the kitchen.
A few minutes later.
"I'm sorry, that's rude."
Kneeling in front of the tea table, Yuuki Akutsu felt her face getting hot as she had embarrassed herself in front of Ani.
"Yuuki-san...Yuuki-san, when does Akutsu-san usually come back?"
Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Shangshanyou asked directly.
"As for Jin, he usually doesn't get home until six. Yu-kun... Did Jin get into trouble at school again?"
There was a hint of worry in Yuki's eyes. She also realized that Uesugi Yu's expression and actions did not seem to indicate that he was not particularly familiar with Akutsu.
If that's the case... then there's only one possibility for Uesugi Yuu to come to my house, Akutsu got into a fight at school again...
Thinking of this, her eyes unconsciously became misty.
"Um, Ms. Yuuki, Akutsu-san didn't fight, but I did come here to talk to you about something."
Seeing that the situation was not right, Shangshan You hurriedly explained that if the other party cried, he would be really troubled.
"Eh~ Is that so…"
Yuuki's expression quickly changed and turned serious.
"So what question does this little gentleman want to ask about A-Ren?"
Yuuki Akutsu calmed down instantly and even changed the way she addressed Yuu Uesugi.
…
It took ten minutes for Shangshan You to explain to the other party the purpose of his visit.
"So... you mean to ask Jin to transfer to Hyotei Academy to play tennis?"
A trace of distress appeared on Akutsu Yuuki's face. After entering junior high school, Akutsu made all these decisions on her own. Even the pat on the head that she used to do would no longer be allowed to be touched.
"Yes, Akutsu-san has the qualities to become a world-class athlete, and you know about tennis..."
Shang Shanyou nodded in affirmation. The world's attention to tennis is so terrifying that it can be said that it is definitely ranked first among all kinds of sports. Those top tennis players are almost all big stars.
Whether Uesugi Yuu's words were false or not, Akutsu Yuki could also hear the truth in them. She had been working hard part-time before and had never thought seriously about Akutsu's future.
"Thank you, You-kun. I will pass on your words to Jin."
Yuuki thanked him earnestly. She knew very well that Akutsu Jin was excellent, but as a mother, she was even happier to receive recognition from others.
"Ms. Yuuki, it's getting late. I'll take my leave now. If you have any difficulties later, you can come to me."
After leaving a contact number, Uesugi Yuu still made a promise that if Akutsu comes to Hyotei in the future, some of the expenses may be difficult for the person in front of him.
Akutsu Yuuki's face was slightly embarrassed. He understood what Uesugi Yuu meant. He did not refuse, but just kept the note silently. For Aren, she would continue to work hard to make money.
…
After declining the invitation to stay for dinner, Shangshan You prepared to leave.
However, just as he was going downstairs, he met a guy who surprised him at the stairs on the third floor.
With his hands in his trouser pockets, his silver-gray hair flipped back, and his light yellow eyes contained a sharp aura. Ordinary people could tell at a glance that he was a delinquent by his sloppy appearance.
He smiled at Akutsu Jin who was walking up from below, and Shangshan You passed by him with a golf bag on his back.
whispering sound……
Akutsu paused and glared at Uesugi Yuu who was walking past him with an extremely aggressive look.
"Maybe it's a new student who moved in."
Akutsu just vaguely memorized Uesugi Yuu's face in his mind.
The two were speechless, but when Shang Shanyou walked to the end quickly.
"By the way, Akutsu-san, I'll wait for you downstairs for fifteen minutes..." Uesugi Yu's voice was not loud, but it echoed throughout the corridor.
Akutsu suddenly felt his heart shrink. He ignored Uesugi Yuu at the bottom of the stairs and ran upstairs with a few big steps.
Uesugi Yuu smiled in his heart: "This is Akutsu..."
Below the apartment.
Uesugi Yuu was silently calculating the time. Sure enough, just eight minutes later, Akutsu rushed downstairs with an angry look on his face.
Swish!
Shangshanyou only felt a gust of strong wind coming, and a pair of big hands had already firmly grasped his collar.
"Are you looking for death?"
He raised one hand and clenched his fist, and words filled with terrifying murderous intent squeezed out from between Akutsu's teeth.
The most important person in his heart is his stupid mother. Shangshan You's behavior today simply touched his reverse scale.
"Do you want Aunt Yuuki to live like this for the rest of your life?"
Uesugi Yu's simple words interrupted Akutsu's actions.
"Your talent and your self-esteem are now worthless in the face of life, aren't they? Akutsu Jin!"
A cold snort came out of Uesugi Yuu's mouth. After such a long time, Ms. Yuuki should have told Akutsu everything. His current look was just a false anger after the fact.
"Damn it, don't give me orders!"
As if a sore spot had been hit, Akutsu retracted his fist by three points, but still created a gust of wind and smashed it towards Uesugi Yuu's face.
"Well... you really like slapping people in the face."
Facing Akutsu's attack, Uesugi Yu inexplicably thought of the unlucky guy Shishido Ryo.
Swish!
With his arm rolled under Akutsu's armpit, Shangshanyou turned flexibly and clamped Akutsu's arm which was about to punch.
Swelling…
Then his knees bent, Akutsu's body staggered and he was pinned to the ground by Uesugi Yuu.
"Also...I forgot to tell you that you are no match for me in a fight."
With a slight smile, Uesugi Yu put one knee on Akutsu's back.
"asshole!"
Akutsu's eyes quickly became bloodshot and he felt a huge sense of humiliation. He was determined to make the bastard in front of him pay the price!
"Okay, no more playing, come with me!"
After a few seconds, Uesugi Yu's hands suddenly loosened , and Akutsu rolled over, then stood up and bent, and attacked Uesugi Yu like a cheetah.
Swish!
Suddenly, Akutsu felt a gust of wind coming, and like a beast, he felt a horrible sharp breath attacking his throat.
Hiss…
Akutsu's leg muscles contracted, he stopped suddenly, and crossed his arms to protect his entire neck and head.
However, the expected slash did not come.
"I told you, stop playing and follow me."
Pah pah pah
Uesugi Yu tapped Akutsu's arm lightly with his tennis racket, then threw it at him.
When Akutsu came back to his senses from his heart palpitations, he subconsciously caught the tennis racket thrown by Uesugi Yuu.
"This person... made him experience the feeling of death."
Looking at the back of Yu Uesugi walking in front of him, Akutsu's light yellow eyes still did not relax, and his right hand tightly grasped the racket thrown by Yu Uesugi.
