Chapter 250 The Shape of Sound
Tokyo, Shinjuku City, indoor gateball court.
The central air conditioner makes a slight vibrating sound, adjusting the temperature and humidity in the stadium to the most suitable position. The bright lights around can provide sufficient light for the venue 24 hours a day. In the high-grade turf that is a mixture of artificial and natural grass, there are also
There are high-end sprinklers that can automatically rise and fall to provide maintenance for the venue. The gateball court in front of you is full of top-notch configurations.
At the glass corridor at the edge of the venue, Takai raised his chin slightly, looked at everything in front of him, and proudly showed off to the man next to him, "Lawyer Kitahara, how are you? This venue was built, hahaha."
"With such a good training ground, I think I can be invincible." Kitahara smiled and said, "When are you going to participate in the World Championships?"
"Next month, it will be in Italy in the West. There are 24 teams in total." Takai looked at the croquet girls in the field, "For them, this is an incredible challenge."
"It can be considered a little parting gift." Beihara took out a small blue box from the bag and opened it. "This is a small gift for the goalball players. I hope they can start winning."
In the blue box, a pair of electronic devices like headphones are wrapped in sponge. There are wires under the headphones, connected to a mysterious device that looks like a portable charger. The metal shell slightly reflects the lights in the stadium, like an exquisite Luxury device.
Pert's Tears - a craft made of glass teardrops, quietly placed in a box, waiting for the owner to pick it up.
Tao Jing recognized it as a hearing aid at a glance, but after looking at it carefully, he felt something was wrong, "Where does this hearing aid come from? It is similar to ordinary hearing aids, but it is obviously different. I have studied it.
There are many brands of hearing aids, but I’ve never seen anything like this.”
"There is only one of this thing in the world at the moment." Kitahara said with a smile, "I asked a good friend from my undergraduate days to make it. After graduating from Tokyo University, he went to Teito University to study physics as a monk, and studied under
Professor Yukawa. Originally, he was making this hearing aid by himself, but Professor Yukawa saw it, and the two of them started tinkering together. According to him, Professor Yukawa is a well-known physics professor, and he mixed this hearing aid.
, I’m afraid its performance is unique in the world.”
Is it a hearing aid made by a famous professor?! After listening to it, Tao Jing couldn’t help but look at the small blue box more seriously, “No wonder it looks so unusual.”
At this moment, most of the croquet girls on the court have finished training and are walking towards the sidelines.
Hanada wiped the sweat from his forehead, held the mallet, and spotted a pair of familiar figures in the glass corridor - it was Lawyer Kitahara and Sister Miyagawa.
From far away, Hanada kept waving his hands to say hello to the two lawyers. When he got closer, he hugged Miyagawa with all his strength. Miyagawa also had a smile on his face and gently touched him with his hand.
Hanada's hair held up the goalkeeper's sun hat, and his eyes were full of tenderness. In this situation, the two of them were like a pair of sisters who had a very close relationship.
Miyagawa has also learned some sign language recently. After hugging each other, he raised his hand towards the flower field and gestured slightly unfamiliarly: "Lawyer Kitahara brought you something, you can try it."
Looking at the sign language, Hanada was slightly stunned, and then turned to look at the male lawyer next to him. The male lawyer still had a slightly malicious smile on his face. Although... although, this Kitahara brother
It was very impressive, and he helped them get a large amount of compensation from the hotel, but Huatian still couldn't imagine that the lawyer in front of him would give anything away.
The captain of the goal team turned his head dubiously and noticed the blue box in Kitahara's hand.
The moment he saw the electronic device in the box, Hanada knew it was a hearing aid.
A corner of the girl's heart twitched slightly.
Although, the Kitahara lawyer in front of me has good intentions.
But... but...
it's useless……
My hearing in both ears has already deteriorated to the point where I can no longer hear even with hearing aids. A long time ago, I discussed with my parents whether to undergo surgery to implant cochlear implants. However, once the surgery is performed, the body can no longer withstand strenuous exercise.
Moreover, the use of cochlear implants may also cause side effects. I have seen peers suffer from inflammation and fever due to cochlear implants.
Therefore, in the end, I did not choose to undergo surgery and implant a cochlear implant.
Without a cochlear implant, it is impossible to hear sounds on your own.
My parents have tried almost all hearing aids on the market with me.
it's useless.
The world I live in is a world without sound.
A bleak world.
The hearing aid in front of me must be very expensive. But...but, even if I wear it, I...I really can't hear any sound.
Hanada lowered his head slightly and gestured towards the Kitahara lawyer in front of him:
"Thank you."
"Lawyer Kitahara——"
"but--"
"My ears-"
"Put on your hearing aids—"
"I can't hear it either."
After the goalkeeper made the gesture, Kitahara seemed not to notice. He just took a step closer and directly put the blue box in Hanada's hand. At this moment, even though there was only a sixteen-year-old in front of him.
Girl, the male lawyer seemed to have really used some force to press the blue box into Huatian's hand without any doubt, as if there was no room for rejection.
Hanada didn't know why the lawyer in front of him was so determined to try this hearing aid himself.
Yes, just like when he was determined to fight this lawsuit.
She held the gift belonging to the goal team in both hands and slowly sat on the bench in the glass corridor.
The silver-gray hearing aid in front of me is placed in the box.
It seemed to be twinkling with light, like stars in the dark night.

The breeze that came from nowhere blew into the corridor and lifted up the girl's black hair.
The girl carefully took off the hearing aid in the box, gently lifted the ear hook with her fingers, and put it on her ear as if repeating a very familiar action. The connection underneath the hearing aid looks like a portable charger.
The electrical box was instantly sensed, and at this moment, the indicator light came on.
"drop."
"It was like a drop of water falling on the water.
It was as if the vibrations of this world were coming to my ears. The rustling sound of leaves swaying gently due to the breeze, the sizzling sound of lamp filaments due to continuous burning and glowing, the faint sound of the bathroom water faucet in the distance, the stadium
There was the sound of birds flapping their wings on the top window, the constant rumble of the ventilation ducts, and finally the sound of a mother pushing a stroller in a stroller not far away.
No one knows how to describe this feeling. Even the top writers cannot convey this feeling in words. The only thing they know is that at this moment, in front of this girl, the world seems to be shaking. The world that was lifeless before
, at this moment, it comes alive like never before.
The people surrounding the girl didn't know what she was going through at this moment.
Her body suddenly stiffened.
Then, the expression on his face completely solidified.
Her expression seemed to say that she didn't believe what was happening in front of her. The girl's eyes were staring ahead, as if she saw an angel spreading its wings and slowly descending in front of her.
I don’t know when, the small electrical box under the hearing aid was connected to a tape recorder again. The man with the scale and sunflower seal gently pressed the triangular play button. The tape installed inside it early in the morning began to play.
It started to rotate with a "sizzling" sound.
The magnetic powder of the black tape beat slightly. The moment it passed through the tape recorder's sound head, the magnetic field above was split by the coil. The invisible magnetic field lines were broken in half at this moment, and then became entangled again, following Maxwell's equations, resulting in
One charge after another was generated, and the electric current composed of countless electrons suddenly hit the microphone of the recorder, transmitting the vibration through the small black box to the hearing aid.
There are no majestic symphonies in the tape recorder.
There are no stirring epic recitations.
Nor does it have the indulgent singing voice of a tenorist.
There was only a slight sound——
"Click!"
It's such a simple impact sound.
"Hanada, do you know this is a sound?" Beihara smiled softly.
The male lawyer with the sunflower seal of the scales spoke. At first, the people around him had not yet reacted. One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds, five seconds... After a full twenty seconds passed, everyone gathered around the flower field.
It was only then that the people who suffered the incident were shocked to realize that the lawyer in front of them was actually trying to talk to a deaf man.
Miyagawa opened her mouth slightly in disbelief, her beautiful fingers curled up unconsciously, and she pinched her palms, "Kita...Kitahara, you...are you talking to Hanada?"
Miyagawa's voice just fell.
A soft baby sound came from Huatian's throat. The vocal cords, which were far behind in development, started to sound stubbornly at this moment, as if desperately trying to solve the confusion in the heart of its owner:
"What...what...what...sound...sound.".
Watching Hanada speak, Takai was completely shocked by the scene in front of him. A girl who had been declared basically deaf, actually... actually spoke like a normal person at this moment. Such a dull scene.
, but it is already the biggest miracle in the world.
"That was the sound of the mallet hitting the goal ball." The male lawyer said calmly.
The girl lowered her head slightly, her body trembling slightly.
It turns out that was the sound of goalball.
That's the sound of the mallet hitting the goal kick thousands of times, tens of thousands of times
That is the sound of goalball that accompanies me day and night.
That's the sound that will sound on the lawn with every swing.
It turns out...it turns out...it turns out to be like this.
The myriad emotions in my heart were like a raging flood at this moment.
At this moment, he broke through the gate and came out.
Sixteen years of life without sound.
At this moment, I finally truly felt the vibration from nature.
It turns out that sound...sound is such a beautiful thing.
The girl could no longer hold back her emotions. Tears were like big pearls, constantly flowing out of her eyes. The next second, she suddenly grabbed the suit of the man wearing the scales and sunflower badge, and pulled her
She buried her whole head in his arms and cried loudly, pouring out all the humiliation, depression, and unwillingness she had suffered since she was sensible at that moment...
"Idiot, don't be so happy." The male lawyer smiled, looking helpless, "This is just a semi-finished product. It can only be run for 5 minutes a day. Everyone in your goal team can take turns listening.
"
In Tokyo, the bustling streets and buildings seem to have disappeared, leaving only this small indoor gateball court in front of you.
The world seems to have been turned upside down in a wonderful way.
The invisible sound seemed to take on a shape at this moment
