Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 678: The gap is the gap, if you don’t understand, you don’t understand

As the high school kendo competition progresses, Fujiwara Hoshikai of Izumi High School easily wins five games in a row with his outstanding skills and tactical wisdom, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.

At the same time, Hattori Heiji and Okita Souji lived up to expectations, passing all the way and successfully advancing to the semi-finals.

But what Fujiwara expected was that the draw actually caused him and Hattori Heiji to meet in the semi-finals in advance, which is very intriguing.

In the audience, Conan and Xiaolan nervously observed the situation off the field. Xiaolan frowned slightly, knowing that no matter what the result was, it meant that one of them would miss the finals.

She looked at Kazuye next to her, and noticed the same nervous expression on the other side. Xiaolan sighed softly, and she was more inclined to Fujiwara winning, but since Kazuye was beside her, she couldn't express her opinion directly. And not long ago, she knew that Heiji planned to win this competition and confess to Kazuha, so in this competition, she actually hoped that Heiji could cheer up and confess his love successfully.
In the audience, Xiaolan turned her head slightly and looked at Heye, her eyes full of complex emotions. Conan shook his head helplessly, as if he wanted to put aside all the entanglements and worries, and said softly: "Haha, no matter what, just give it to me..."

Conan appears even more conflicted.

He and Hattori have similar interests and are about the same age and have a lot in common, but he is also very good friends with Fujiwara Hoshikai. Although the other party threatens him from time to time, criticizes him, and even misunderstands his intentions, Conan always feels that the two of them should be regarded as friends. Good friends, we just have different ideas.
In the end, Conan chose to sit down in the audience and said helplessly:

"Haha, no matter what, just give me your best performance."

Xiaoran gently waved the small flag in her hand, with a happy smile on her face, trying to ease Kazuha's tension due to Heiji's defeat. She said softly: "It's great. Brother Xinghai and Hattori-kun have both reached the semi-finals..."

Aoko's shout seemed to give Kazuha a hint of encouragement. She also summoned up the courage to walk lightly to Aoko and shouted equally loudly: "Heiji, you have to work hard too..." Although her voice was slightly shy, it was full of enthusiasm. Support and encouragement for Heiji.

Kazuye raised her head, with complex emotions in her eyes, and replied softly: "Yes, we have reached the semi-finals..." There was a hint of melancholy in her voice, and it was obvious that she felt an unnoticeable regret for Heiji's defeat.

Xiaolan looked at this scene and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. She shook her head slightly and thought: "Fortunately, the atmosphere did not become so tense." At this time, her eyes inadvertently swept across the audience and found a familiar figure - Hongye. In her memory, this was the third time she had seen Momiji on important occasions, and each time she had been closely accompanied by Fujiwara Hoshiumi. There seemed to be an unusual tacit understanding between the two.

The eyes of Qingzi next to him were full of hesitation and entanglement, but he finally mustered up the courage. At the critical moment when the whistle was about to blow, she stood up, took a deep breath, and shouted to the bottom of the playing field: "Brother Xinghai, come on! We support you!" Her voice was clear and firm, even though she felt sad in her heart. She has a favorable impression of Hattori Heiji's confession plan, but she understands that the fairness and competitive spirit of the competition cannot be doubted.

The two women looked at each other and smiled, then shouted in unison: "Come on!" Their voices intertwined and echoed in the empty stadium, adding a touch of warmth and encouragement to the tense competition.

Xiaolan couldn't help but secretly guess in her heart: "Are you a very good friend?" Her curiosity was aroused, but because she was not familiar with Hongye, it was inconvenient to ask directly.

Hongye sat in the first row of the auditorium, his eyes fixed on Fujiwara, who was about to start the game.

Her eyes were full of trust and support for her husband, and her face was filled with a proud and happy smile. He even had a premonition that the opponent would end the game cleanly.

Fujiwara Hoshikai, wearing a kendo uniform with a calm expression, looked at Hattori Heiji opposite and said softly: "I didn't expect to meet you..."

Hattori Heiji's eyes were firm and he smiled slightly and replied: "Really, but I thought that there was a high probability that I would meet Brother Fujiwara in the finals. I didn't expect that we would meet in the semi-finals..."

"I will not underestimate the enemy... Of course, don't think about giving in. I will not accept such a victory, so I ask Fujiwara-san to use all his strength..." Hattori's tone was full of determination to fight, and he held his hands tightly holding a wooden sword, his eyes shining with expectation.

After hearing this, Fujiwara raised his eyebrows slightly, nodded thoughtfully, and replied: "All the strength?" His voice was calm, but the light in his eyes revealed that he accepted Hattori's challenge.

Both sides retreated to their positions, preparing for the duel that was about to begin. Fujiwara closed his eyes slightly, adjusted his breathing, and then opened his eyes with sharp eyes. He was thinking secretly, not sure whether the wooden sword in his hand could withstand the fierce battle that followed, but since Hattori asked for all his strength, he could only go all out.

Following the referee's order, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the air on the field seemed to freeze. Fujiwara and Hattori rushed towards each other quickly, with clear aim and the intention to hit with one hit.

"Bang!" There was a loud sound, less than a second after the exchange, the force generated by the collision of the sword tips was beyond imagination. The wooden sword in Hattori's hand broke with a sound, and his body was pushed backwards by Fujiwara's power, and finally fell to his knees. The scene was shocking.

The whole place was silent, and then there was a surprised discussion. Everyone was stunned by this sudden scene. Hattori Heiji stared blankly at the broken sword in his hand. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

After a brief silence, Hattori finally came to his senses. He slowly stood up and bowed deeply to show respect and acceptance of this defeat.

Then, he picked up the broken sword on the ground, and quietly quit the game with a bit of loss and dignity.

Fujiwara Hoshikai stood there, looking at Hattori's back, and he was also a little surprised. Although this victory was unexpected, it also made him re-examine his own strength. Although he had many questions in his mind, he still bowed slightly to show respect to Hattori Heiji who left.

Turning to face the audience, Fujiwara Hoshiumi waved his arms to celebrate this moment like a winner. His eyes searched the audience for the red leaves, and when their eyes met, Fujiwara's heart was filled with warmth and strength.

Seeing Fujiwara's victory, Hongye showed an extremely proud and happy smile. She clapped her hands gently and couldn't help but murmur to herself: "That's how it is... My husband is so handsome..."
