Chapter 674: Boss, Don't Talk About Number Two [Happy Birthday Chi Feichei Bonus Chapter]
"My Parents are very strict and don't want us to be in romance before University. Junko always hid it from her Family, and no one told her what to do. She wasn't as brave as Asaka. When the rumors got worse and worse, she chose to escape. She didn't have the courage to stand in front of you again, nor the courage to confess her little Intentions to others, even Asaka. And even less to formally say 'I'm sorry' to you before you Graduation and left," Mabuchi Kyohei said, looking at Chi Feichei. "After she Graduated from High School last year, she chose a University Overseas and reduced contact with Asaka. I thought it was very Weird. After I asked her a few times This Year, she told me that she was very Regretful, and felt that she should have at least apologized to you before you Graduated..."
"Actually, I should have Realize it earlier. Her Emotion suddenly became very low in the past two years, and she also became taciturn. I should have noticed it, but at that time I was busy with Tennis Training and Tennis Match. It was only after so long that I Realize she was hiding this Matter in her Heart."
Saying that, Mabuchi Kyohei smiled helplessly, "Today I met Mr. Chi and secretly called her. In the Washroom, I talked about paying for the Mistake made when she was young. I was comforting her that she hasn't been Happy these years and has been living in guilt. I think she should face this Matter and come to you to explain it clearly, or let me Say it. But she procrastinated again, saying she wanted to prepare Mentality and then come to you in person to talk about this Matter. I think it's not okay to continue like this, so I simply said it for her. Junko is my Younger Sister, and I also have to apologize to you on her behalf..."
"Never Mind," Chi Feichei said calmly, "I am indeed not a very easy person to get along with."
This wasn't saying the opposite. He himself was taciturn, and the Original Consciousness also had Problems in terms of social interaction. He wasn't a very approachable person.
But what's Different between him and the Original Consciousness is that he doesn't Care About these Matters. If it had been him back then, no matter what others Said, he would just live his Life happily.
Cold and Arrogant? Uh-huh, Correct, I am this kind of person. Do you have an Opinion? If you have an Opinion, you can Say it directly, but whether I listen or not depends on my Mood.
Probably it's because of the Difference in Mentality. Although he occasionally feels the Emotion of the Original Consciousness in Memory, he can't treat it as something that happened to himself, which also led to his generosity.
Actually, he is not qualified to forgive anyone on behalf of the Original Consciousness, whether it's Mabuchi Junko or Chi Kana.
But the Original Consciousness has already dissipated, and the living people have to continue living. He who took over this Body and this Identity will also continue to exist in this World, so let's make a Choice that is good for everyone.
If the Original Consciousness existed, with that Fellow's Personality, figuring out these Matters and getting them Solved would probably also make him relieved and much more relaxed, right?
"Brother Hichiji, do you really not Care About it?" Haibara Ai discovered that the straw was sucking air. She looked down and Realize that she had finished a glass of Orange Juice. She Reach Out to take the Watermelon Juice.
Gossip or Watermelon Juice is better...
"It's all in the past, I didn't Care About it," Chi Feichei stopped Haibara Ai's Hand and moved the Juice away a Bit, "Drink less."
Drinking so much Juice before eating Rice, not to mention whether you can still eat Rice later, it's also easy to get a Belly ache.
"Mr. Chi..." Mabuchi Kyohei hesitated, he couldn't figure out what Chi Feichei's Attitude meant, whether he had forgiven his Younger Sister or not.
Haibara Ai regretfully withdrew her Hand. Although she knew she really couldn't drink anymore, she couldn't help but secretly tease Chi Feichei, "Don't Worry, if Brother Hichiji Cared About it, he would have gone to your Home long ago. He is not that kind of person who swallows his anger and does nothing."
In Haibara Ai's Heart, is he this kind of person? Chi Feichei silently reflected on what Matter made Haibara Ai have this Illusion, and by the way reminded, "Can you be a gentle and considerate caring little cotton-padded jacket like other people's Younger Sister?"
"You are not as Kind and gentle as other people's Older Brother, and not stingy with giving your Younger Sister a few Smiling Face." Haibara Ai retorted leisurely.
Everyone is about the Same, Boss, Don't Talk About Number Two.
Conan couldn't help but chuckle. He felt that Haibara was more Suitable to be reborn into the Chi Family, so that she could argue from a young age... Uh, Never Mind, Never Mind, if these two people had lived in a Family early on, their Personalities would be even worse than they are now.
Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi shifted their Line of Sight to Makino Yasuhiko and Coach Dong Tian Yue again. They hadn't forgotten that there were still two problematic figures here!
Mitsuhiko looked at Makino Yasuhiko seriously, "Then, Coach Makino took Brother Ike's Backpack..."
Makino Yasuhiko was Stunned, these Child already knew?
"Wrong," Ayumi Interrupt Mitsuhiko's question, looked towards Coach Dong Tian Yue, "I think we should ask Coach Toda first!"
"Uh..." Coach Dong Tian Yue was a A Bit Stunned. Why is this Child looking at him with such fierce Gaze?
Conan came back to his senses and quickly Said, "Coach Toda doesn't hate Brother Ike."
Ayumi frowned, "But ten years ago..."
"Ten years ago, Coach Toda Said Brother Ike was not Suitable for Tennis, actually Because he didn't want Brother Ike to become a Professional Tennis Player, right?" Conan looked towards Coach Dong Tian Yue, "At that time, Brother Ike would Training until very late. I think the Training Intensity had exceeded the Intensity corresponding to his Age, but Coach Toda once injured his Eyes due to too strong Competitive Spirit and could never stand on the professional court again. And today's Training for us is also appropriately arranged according to Age. Therefore, his Training was not arranged by Coach Toda, but he conducted Training On his own. Coach Toda probably saw the dangerous Competitive Spirit in him, worried that he would follow his old Road, so he Said some excessive Words..."
"Then why not Say it directly?" Makino Yasuhiko said dissatisfiedly, "Why would you rather Blow a Child's Confidence who is Talented and hardworking, than directly explain it to him clearly?"
Conan Be Stunned for a moment, and then muttered in a low voice, "I See."
"What's Wrong?" Haibara Ai asked in Doubt in a low voice.
"He thought that Coach Makino and Coach Toda have been at odds these years Because Coach Makino heard those Words Coach Toda Said ten years ago," Chi Feichei said, "But they have worked together for many years after all. Coach Makino is very clear about the Reason why Coach Toda did this, he just can't accept Coach Toda's Handling Method."
"Yes, I think at that time, Coach Makino was also paying attention to Brother Ike," Conan Nodded and admitted that he had indeed guessed this way before, "That old woman Said that she brushed past a Coach on the Night of the second Day of the Competition. That person was probably Coach Makino. I thought Coach Makino had an Opinion on Coach Toda Because he was dissatisfied with those Words and felt that Coach Toda had delayed Brother Ike..."
"Because I had a Premonition that I couldn't persuade Hissashi," Coach Dong Tian Yue suddenly Speak Out, his Face becoming a little Weird, "His Training Intensity not only exceeded that of his peers by a lot, but it was basically already at the Limit that his Body could bear. Initially, when I saw a Child who was Talented and hardworking, I also felt very gratified..."
At that time, Coach Dong Tian Yue Intention was to train Chi Feichei as his only Disciple, feeling that his Wish of not being able to stand on the professional court could be inherited by Student, and that little Fellow would definitely shine brightly.
In the first year when Chi Feichei came to Training, although Coach Dong Tian Yue felt that the Training Intensity was too High, his Attitude was not too tough to stop it. Perhaps he had tried, but he failed to convince Chi Feichei, and was instead convinced by Chi Feichei.
"'Isn't Effort good? Anyway, my Training has not exceeded the Limit that my Body can bear, Isn't It?' Just this Words made me unable to refute," Coach Dong Tian Yue looked frustrated, indicating that it was too difficult for him as a Coach. It's not that he hadn't thought about talking it over properly, but he couldn't win the argument, "When he came over in the second year, I felt that it couldn't continue like this anymore. I also talked to him about the Problem of too strong Competitive Spirit, but none of them were successful. On the contrary, I was somewhat convinced by him..."
Who can understand how difficult it was for him at that time? After talking to Chi Feichei here, he was full of Heat, and his Heart was full of: That's right, young people should work hard, there's nothing wrong with having a strong Competitive Spirit, Competitive Spirit is the driving force for Humanity to move forward.
After calming down afterwards, his Heart was again full of: No, that's not right, too strong Competitive Spirit is also harmful. He was trying to persuade that Child, how could he be convinced instead? The next time he went to talk, he repeated the same old Road.
Conan glanced at Chi Feichei, look, look, look, what have you done to the Coach, even a good-tempered and Kind person can be forced to say 'You are not Suitable, I don't want to teach you' with a Cold Face.
Chi Feichei didn't explain. These are two Different Life Philosophies.
One believes that one should proceed step by step, do the right thing at the right time, protect oneself, and focus on the Future.
The other believes that Life should take advantage of being young and energetic to compete and fight.
It's impossible to Say who is right and who is Wrong, or rather, neither is Wrong.
Coach Toda's past History led to the former Viewpoint, and for the Original Consciousness, Effort was also to achieve his Goal. If he was willing to fight, what was Wrong with that?
He still thinks that the Idea of the Original Consciousness at that time was not Wrong.
In Memory, Coach Toda once Asked: If your Competitive Spirit is too strong, have you ever thought about what if you lose a Competition one day?
Probably he wanted to give the Original Consciousness a Preventive Shot, worried that the Original Consciousness would suffer a greater Blow after losing and couldn't get over it in his Heart.
And what the Original Consciousness Said at that time was...
"I won't lose. If I lose, I will probably be a little unwilling, and then win back next time, and win back again and again, until the other party can't Challenge me... That's what he Said," Coach Toda also remembered Chi Feichei's Words back then, feeling very helpless in his Heart. So he was pumped up again at that time, "I was convinced again, and even agreed to his Extra Training, which was on the eve of that Practice Match. It wasn't until the Competition that I Realize that it couldn't continue like this. If he really wanted to continue, I wouldn't stop him, but I wouldn't teach him anymore. Even if he thinks I'm a Bad Person, when he stands on the Competition field to compete for victory that Day, when he wants to take risks in order to win, if he can remember me as a Bad Person, remember what I Said, and hesitate a A Bit and Consider the Consequences, then it's worth it."
"Then why wouldn't it be that when I remember you, I would want to prove even more that your Idea is Wrong? I can keep winning, I can make you Regret, and instead work even harder?" Chi Feichei asked back.
He wasn't arguing for the sake of arguing, but rather raising a Possibility. If it weren't Because the Original Consciousness's Goal was not originally to be a Professional Tennis Player, he might really go to this Extreme.
Coach Dong Tian Yue was Stunned for a moment, and then fell into Silence.
Yes, if he Said that, what if it backfired? Again and again and again, he suddenly felt that what Chi Feichei Said was very reasonable.
Then is he Wrong? Wait, he needs to sort it out. What was he thinking at that time...
