How Could I Lose to Him

Chapter 57: Finals (Part 1)

Views:

The match between Sui Hou Yu and Hou Mo went very smoothly, reaching the finals all the way. The opponents in the finals are Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui of the Eastern Sports Affiliated Squadron.

The time is scheduled for the second session on the morning of November 7th.

Hou Mo's men's singles final was the second match on the afternoon of November 7, and his opponent was Liu Mo of the provincial sports team.

These days Hou Mo has gotten used to the rhythm of playing two games a day, so he is somewhat tired.

In the first few days, he could still follow Hou Yupi a few times, but after the 5th, he became a little depressed, and his sleep time increased significantly.

Sui Hou Yu also knew that Hou Mo was sleepy, and it was normal to sleep and rest at this time, so he generally didn't bother Hou Mo.

The evening of November 6th.

Hou Mo went back to his room at night and fell asleep. When he woke up, he found that Hou Yu was not with him. The room was pitch black and there was no sound at all.

He regained his composure for a while, then turned on the bedside lamp, sat up and looked around but couldn't find Sui Houyu.

Then he stood up, walked to the door of the bathroom and looked through the crack of the door, but there was no light.

When Hou Yu goes to the bathroom, he will turn on the light, and when he sits in the pit, he will play with his mobile phone, at least there will be some brightness.

Just when he was wondering, he heard Sui Hou Yu's voice outside the door, so he opened the door and walked out, and saw a familiar scene when he opened the door.

The last time I saw Sui Houyu squatting at the door was Sui Houyu eating sweets outside the dormitory.

This time, it was Sui Hou Yu squatting at the door to send a voice message.

"Why are you here?" Hou Mo asked in bewilderment while holding the door.

"Afraid to wake you up."

"Not at all."

Sui Hou Yu stood up and followed Hou Mo into the room. He was still sending voice messages while walking, as if he was arranging a party and discussing with Su Anyi.

The information revealed between the words was that they were preparing a birthday party for Ran Shu.

Hou Mo sat on the bed and asked after seeing Sui Hou Yu put down his phone, "Is it Ran Shu's birthday?"

"Well, November 7th, the day of our finals."

Hou Mo took out his phone and looked at the time: "Hey, there are two hours left, are you going to wish him a happy birthday in the early morning?"

"No, I'm going to pretend that I forgot, and give him a surprise when I get back to the city tomorrow. Just pretend you don't know."

"Traditional." Hou Mo laughed, "Is there still a large group of people lying in ambush, preparing cakes and gifts, and planning to set off fireworks?"

Suihou Yu was silent for a while, and then said: "Either it was put in the sky, or... a firework stick."

"Well, I think Ran Shu will be very happy if he can follow your set."

Sui Hou Yu stared at Hou Mo, hesitated for a while and asked, "You don't like this?"

"Well, I don't even want to celebrate my birthday." After finishing speaking, Hou Mo got up and went to the bathroom.

He watched Hou Mo leave, feeling a little uncomfortable.

The day before his birthday was his father's death day, so it's not surprising that Hou Mo would reject celebrating his birthday.

He looked at the message from Su Anyi, and typed a reply: Please help arrange it, Hou Mo woke up, I will discuss tactics with him.

Aunt Su: OK, then I will make arrangements.

After Hou Mo walked out of the bathroom, he picked up the water bottle that had been torn off the package, unscrewed the lid and took a sip of water, looking at Sui Hou Yu.

Suihou Yu was also looking at him, and the two looked at each other without speaking.

But Hou Mo still understood. After putting down the water bottle, he took a notebook from one side and drew a map of the venue.

"Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui usually use two formations, one is the wild goose and the other is the double bottom line. If they use the wild goose, we use the double bottom line. If they use the double bottom line, we use the I-shaped formation." Hou While drawing the formation diagram, Mo explained it to Suihou Yu.

"it is good."

"You have to watch me command in the I-shaped formation, which is a great test of tacit understanding."

"Um."

Sui Hou Yu is really familiar with Hou Mo, and he can understand such a magical formation diagram of Hou Mo.

It's just that sometimes you need to get closer to see it, otherwise you can't tell the exact location.

Realizing that Hou Mo suddenly stopped talking, he raised his head to look at Hou Mo. Since he had just leaned over and the two of them were very close, when he looked up, he found Hou Mo's face very close at hand.

After Hou Mo finished drawing the formation diagram, he fell silent looking at the formation diagram, because he couldn't say anything other than these.

He has been thinking these days, and he has not thought about how to play against this pair.

Sui Hou Yu suddenly raised his head while he was silent, he and Sui Hou Yu looked at each other, they were so close that their breaths were intertwined.

His heart skipped a beat suddenly.

Suihou Yu's body seemed to be pulled backwards, and he leaned back in embarrassment, and hit the back of the chair.

Hou Mo looked at it, but said nothing.

Suihou Yu took a sip of water and asked, "Why don't you continue talking?"

"I haven't thought of tactics yet."

This time the two were silent together.

After a long time, Suihou Yucai said: "Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, it's all right."

Hou Mo smiled a little reluctantly: "Well, the biggest difficulty of our combination is that there are too many tactics, causing confusion. We don't have too many tactics so far, so there will be no confusion. It's good to be optimistic."

"What are we more afraid of?"

"If they attack from the double bottom line, and if they serve and grab the net very well, we will easily fall into a passive position."

Hou Mo tore off the previous piece of paper and drew another picture: "Look at this picture, you are a bit weak in changing sides after serving, if your movement route is like this, you will make up for it. "

Hou Mo felt that since there was no countermeasure, it was better to overcome some of their weaknesses and improve himself.

As long as the two of them are strong enough, many problems will be solved.

When Hou Mo and Sui Houyu were warming up in the morning, they met Lu Yanxin who was about to go to the competition.

Lu Yanxin has just switched to tennis not long ago, and this time the provincial competition has continued until today, but now he is going to compete for the third place.

Hou Mo suddenly called out to Lu Yanxin, "Come on, daughter-in-law."

Lu Yanxin originally planned to wave hello to Hou Mo and Sui Hou Yu, but suddenly he was a little confused when he was called his daughter-in-law, and asked, "Who is your son?"

"Choose anyone from our team, whoever you like." Hou Mo replied shamelessly.

Lu Yanxin laughed loudly and asked, "Can you work as a partner?"

Hou Mo refused without hesitation: "He can't, he is my ancestor."

Lu Yanxin waved his racket in protest: "I'm about to go to the competition, and you even give me dog food. It's great to have a partner!"

After speaking, he strode away.

After a while, Ran Shu and Su Anyi came to look for them together, and Ran Shu was so excited that he jumped up and down to Sui Hou Yu's side, smiling without saying a word.

Suihou Yu stopped and looked at him, and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

"I plan to eat."

"Oh, eat more." After Sui Hou Yu answered, he continued to warm up.

Ran Shu's smile gradually faded away, and finally he nodded in disappointment, and followed Su Anyi to the cafeteria.

Hou Mo looked at it and said, "Ran Shu is really a person who has all his emotions written on his face."

"Well, he is very simple."

Sui Hou Yu and Hou Mo were almost ready, went to the waiting room of the competition members, went in and met Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui.

Jiang Wei and Hou Mo greeted each other, "Take care of me later."

Hou Mo nodded: "Well, yes."

Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui were originally trained in amateur sports schools, and have been training with the provincial team for a while.

The coach of the provincial team used to be a member of the national team, so he has his own research on training. In addition, the provincial team has a more complete training system, which is much more professional than Hou Mo and Sui Houyu.

When they were about to play, the four of them stood together, and Suihou Yu realized that he was actually the shortest.

In daily life, Hou Mo's height of 188 cm is considered the height of a male god, and Sui Hou Yu's height of 183 cm is not considered short.

Now, their opponents were two tall men. Jiang Wei was 192 centimeters tall, and Lu Qinghui was 190 centimeters tall, taller than Hou Mo.

Tall without looking bulky.

Because of the project, the tennis players are all slender and well-proportioned, and the muscles of the body are not exaggerated. They all look strong and comfortable.

A doubles combination like Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui definitely has a height advantage in doubles.

Not too tall, and definitely not short.

The technical aspect is also very good.

No wonder everyone likes them.

Finally played, toss a coin to choose the venue, who will serve first.

This time Hou Mo chose to serve first.

When preparing to take a group photo, Lu Qinghui suddenly burst out laughing, and whispered to Jiang Wei, "Look at the words printed behind them."

Jiang Wei looked at it with his head, and said happily, "We will print it next time."

"Print my partner is wood?"

"Tsk." Jiang Wei gave Lu Qinghui a white look, "Don't be playful and play hard."

"Oh..." A 1.9-meter-tall man stood in front of the camera and took a group photo with aggrieved eyes, his big eyes revealing innocence.

In the first game, Sui Hou Yu served.

Suihou Yu's serve was full of power and speed, perhaps it was the first time he served, and he wanted to give the opponent a blow, this serve was full of explosive power.

Lu Qinghui volleyed beautifully.

Hou Mo slapped back.

Jiang Wei was on the bottom line and added backspin to the ball after a backhand slice. The ball stuck to the net and passed the net, and Hou Yu ran to swing the racket, but he missed the ball.

He watched as the ball landed under his racket and never bounced back.

Backspin.

Also called deciduous ball.

Generally speaking, players seldom use backspin in the game. This kind of ball is relatively slow, and it is easy for the opponent to see through the ball's route and predict the ball's landing point.

Just now, Suihou Yu had indeed seen through and judged the location.

However, the ball was too low to be hit at all, and the ball did not bounce.

Suihou Yu was standing very close to the net. If he swung his racket closer, the racket would easily hit the net.

A ball that makes Sui Houyu completely powerless.

Lost the first goal.

Suihou Yu glanced at the opposite side when he served next time, and then served.

After a few beats back and forth, Suihou Yu noticed that Jiang Wei made a backspin again.

He took a quick look at the position of the net, and when he got to the net, he picked it up with the racket and picked the backspin ball back. During the movement, the net moved a bit, and the racket did not touch the net, only because of the wind between the racket swings.

On the opposite side, Lu Qinghui was ready, he swung his racket back, and the ball was violently drawn back by Sui Hou Yu, and after falling to the ground, it flew out with an absolute sense of power.

Looking back at the ball, Lu Qinghui felt that tennis balls were a little irritable, like a irritable grasshopper jumping with anger.

He went to see Sui Houyu again, and suddenly smiled: "The little guy has a big temper."

Suihou Yu was surprised: "Little guy?!"

"The little one? Cutie?" Lu Qinghui raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.

Hou Mo was already adjusting his position, but he hurried over when he heard it: "No molesting my partner."

"No..." Lu Qinghui was still smiling, and seemed to have a good personality.

In the auditorium, Deng Yiheng was shaking his legs nervously, still thinking: "What should I do, Brother Yu must be under a lot of pressure."

In Deng Yiheng's view, Jiang Wei and Lu Qinghui were masters, opponents he dared not challenge.

On the contrary, Ran Shu, who was sitting beside him, was very calm, his body was crooked, and he said casually, "I-I won't, our brother Yu is not an ordinary person."

Deng Yiheng retorted: "I know Brother Yu is amazing, but this is his first time participating in the competition!"

Ran Shu pointed to Suihou Yu and said, "You, you, look at brother Yu's eyes, can you see clearly?"

As he spoke, he took out his pocket and handed Deng Yiheng a telescope.

Prepared enough, but also brought binoculars.

In order to watch Sui Houyu's match, Ran Shu also worked hard.

Deng Yiheng really picked up the binoculars to see Sui Houyu's eyes.

Sui Houyu returned to the serving position.

He wants to keep his hair now, and if it is an ordinary person, the pressure will be great.

After a month of training, he participated in the provincial competition and made it all the way to the finals. His opponent was the second doubles team in the country, and he was almost the number one doubles team in the country.

The pressure is great.

But Suihou Yu was not an ordinary person, he was never nervous, and instead smiled with the corners of his mouth in this situation.

His smile was sly, a little naughty, a little evil, and there was excitement in his eyes.

The more powerful the opponent, the more excited he is.
