Chapter 124 Japan's No. [-] High School Student

After Lu Yuan asked for leave, Bai Ye seemed to be unaffected during this time.

During the day he attends classes and does homework, and at night he goes to the arena to train and watch videos, and everything seems to be normal.

But only Wang Yourong knew that Bai Ye was abnormal, because he hardly said a word these days.

Bai Ye's usual impression is that he is very indifferent, and hardly talks to his classmates and teammates, so if he doesn't talk, everyone doesn't feel much.

But Wang Yourong is with Bai Ye and Lu Yuan every day, and he knows that Bai Ye is not always silent. On the contrary, if he gets along well, he will know that Bai Ye has a very good personality, serious and careful.Although he is sometimes fierce, snarky, and swearing, Wang Yourong knows that he cares about the people around him.

Ever since Lu Yuan was gone, Bai Ye's eyes had lost the brilliance and turned into complete indifference, just like when she met him at the school gate two months ago.There is only basketball in his eyes, only himself, and only the front, and he is indifferent to other people and other things.

Wang Yourong really wanted to chat with Bai Ye, wanted to tell him about Lu Yuan, but he didn't know what to say, he was stupid, and he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

Wang Yourong couldn't hide his emotions like Bai Ye did. He lost several pounds this week, and he didn't care about class or training, and was depressed all day long.

It is not only Bai Ye and Wang Yourong who are good friends of Lu Yuan who are affected, but the entire basketball team feels that something is missing without Lu Yuan.

Zhang Run talked even less. Ren Zhaoliang, Zhang Fan, and Zou Zhou couldn't find anyone to joke with. Even Zeng Hongzhi, a heartless guy, began to sigh and spend less time watching short videos.

The morale of the whole team was low because of Lu Yuan's departure, Gao Jing saw it in her eyes and was anxious in her heart. In the past few days, she has been emphasizing the need to cheer up during training. Whether it is Lu Yuan, Dai Haoran or whoever, they will return to the basketball team.

What they have to do now is to try to defeat their opponents in the final of the county competition, otherwise even if Lu Yuan comes back, it will be meaningless.

What made Gao Jing even more disturbed was that their opponent in the final of the county competition was not Mingguang Middle School, but Heima Licheng Foreign Language School.

In the afternoon game last weekend, Licheng Foreign Language School unexpectedly defeated Mingguang High School in the semi-finals and reached the final of the county competition for the second consecutive year.

This was something no one expected. After more than a month of preparation, they had always aimed at Mingguang. In the end, Lizhong easily entered the finals, but Mingguang fell on the way.

This is great news for Lizhong, but now, no one cares about who their opponent is in the final.Everyone was just thinking about when Lu Yuan would come back and who would be missing from the basketball team.

........................

After school was over on Saturday, Gao Jing made an appointment with the principal Zhu Yida to talk to him about the recent shortage of basketball team personnel.

In Principal Zhu's office, Gao Jing cut to the chase and said, "Principal, since the beginning of the school year, we have lost four guards. Four! How many people are there in total? There is almost no one in the backcourt to dribble."

Principal Zhu said while playing with his mobile phone: "Oh, the basketball team is not peaceful this semester. Three new players were recruited, but one of the old players quit, one beat someone, and the other cheated. What can I do? Recently, I heard that Lu Yuan The boy has to quit, the sky is going to rain, the mother is going to get married, and I have nothing to do if they don't want to play."

When Principal Zhu said this, Gao Jing said angrily: "Principal, you strongly supported the development of the school's basketball team at that time! Now the situation of the basketball team is very good, and it is likely to achieve breakthrough results. Why did you start talking sarcastic?"

Principal Zhu put down his cell phone and said, "Of course I support the development of the basketball team. Your achievements are obvious to all. However, accidents like this always happen. I think you, as a coach, have an unshirkable responsibility."

Gao Jing thought about it this way, indeed, there were so many changes and accidents in the staff this semester, and as the head coach, she did have to bear a lot of responsibility.

But as a female coach, she doesn't even care about her own lifelong affairs. She leads a group of half-children to train every day.

Thinking of the hard work she has put in in the past two months, thinking of the lack of preparation for tomorrow's game, and thinking of Lu Yuan not knowing if she will be able to come back, Gao Jing's eyes turned red, and tears were about to fall.

Zhu Yida looked at it and quickly said: "Okay, okay, don't cry, others will think I am bullying the female subordinates when they see it."

When Zhu Yida said this, Gao Jing actually started to cry. She threw herself on the sofa, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

Principal Zhu panicked now, what is it that this female subordinate is crying in her office?He was just going to hit her, but he forgot that Gao Jing is not Wang Ke, she is a young girl after all.

"Don't cry, don't cry, there will always be a solution to the problem, what's the use of crying? Well, I have already contacted Mr. Mao at Lu Yuan's side, have you talked to him, he will go tomorrow morning Talk to Lu Yuan's mother at Lu Yuan's family. Don't worry, Mr. Mao used to be Lu Yuan's mother's homeroom teacher. He understands their family's situation. Playing basketball is not a bad thing. Don't worry. Lead the team to participate in the competition tomorrow, regardless of Lu Yuan. Whether you can come back or not, you have to win the game!"

Hearing what the principal said, Gao Jing's mood stabilized a lot. She wiped away her tears and asked, "What else? What about Wu Peng and Li Yong?"

Zhu Yida went on to say: "Wu Peng, is that the one who quit? Oh, I'll come and talk to him at that time. When you win the championship, I have something to talk to him. As for Li Yong, the demerit is only from the school. , just give him a chance first and let him participate in tomorrow's game."

Hearing this, Gao Jing finally stopped crying, wiped away her tears and said, "Thank you, Principal Zhu."

"Hey, but I want to declare that Li Yong's NHBA subsidy for this semester will be fully deducted. There is not a penny, and the game is for nothing." Zhu Yida did not forget to add.

........................

The next day, the last Sunday in November, Bai Ye came to the gymnasium early in the morning.

Before he came, he made another call to Lu Yuan, and it was still annoying "The user you dialed has turned off the phone", Bai Ye was so angry that he wanted to smash the phone.

Bai Ye warmed up with the ball for a while, and his teammates arrived at the arena one by one, Wang Yourong, Zou Zhou, Zhang Fan, Ren Zhaoliang, Zhang Run, Zeng Hongzhi.

There is no land source.

"Boom!" Bai Ye's three-pointer hit the front of the basket, and he didn't feel very good this morning.

Waiting until Gao Jing came to get the players together to go to the Olympic Sports Center to participate in the finals of the county competition, Lu Yuan still didn't come.

Today's final will start at 10:30 am, and the opponent is the unexpected Licheng Gaidai.

On the school bus, Bai Ye found that Lu Yuan's "little girlfriend" Jia Yumeng was not on the bus, the cheerleader Qiang Wei said: "She seems to have gone to Lu Yuan's house this morning, I wonder if Lu Yuan can come to the competition."

Hearing what Qiangwei said, Wang Yourong hurriedly said: "Really? Can Lu Yuan really participate in today's competition? Can he catch up?"

Qiang Wei shook her head to express that she didn't know, while Bai Ye said, "Okay, Wang Yourong, no matter whether he comes or not, we have to play hard and don't think about it."

Bai Ye usually called Wang Yourong "Da Nai", but this time she called Wang Yourong by his first name. Wang Yourong knew that Bai Ye must be in a bad mood, so he stopped talking.

When the bus was approaching the gymnasium, Wang Yourong saw another school bus entering the parking lot of the Olympic Sports Center, which seemed to be from Licheng Foreign Language School.

"Hey Yezi, um, how did the foreign language school beat Mingguang this year? I always thought that it would play against Mingguang in the final." Wang Yourong couldn't help asking.

Bai Ye replied: "Because Licheng Foreign Language School introduced a foreign player."

"Foreign players!"

"Do you still remember that tall player with a crew cut that day at the opening ceremony?"

"I seem to have the impression that he doesn't look like a foreigner."

"It's not just black and white people who are foreigners, that guy is Japanese."

"Japanese!?"

Bai Ye's words not only attracted Wang Yourong, but also attracted other team members.

In the past few days, everyone has been frowning, wondering when Lu Yuan will come back, even Mingguang was eliminated, and the opponent was a foreign language, so they didn't pay much attention.

Unexpectedly, there is a foreigner in this foreign language school, and he is Japanese.

At this time, Gao Jing said to everyone: "Bai Ye is right. The center forward of the foreign language school is indeed Japanese. He is known as the number one high school student in Japan. He is already a sophomore this year. It is said that he won the championship in Japan. I think it is boring in Japan. China came to show its talents. It just so happened that the foreign language school and the school he was in had a place for exchange students, so he exchanged here."

In the NHBA, foreign players are allowed to represent the school in the competition. The premise is that they have the school's student status, and the second is that they must study in the school for one semester.

The Japanese student from the foreign language school happened to be exchanged last semester, and he will be able to represent the team in competitions this semester.

"What is Japan's number one high school student? It's not at all. It's just the center of a high school team in Japan."

Bai Ye dismissed the statement of "the number one high school student in Japan".Thinking about it, even if Japan's number one high school player is not as good as the Chinese players, he would not go to a place like Licheng to play.

But his strength must not be underestimated, otherwise Mingguang Middle School would not just capsize like this. Jiang Xiaowu, who has carefully prepared for a semester, will be empty this semester.

"Yezi, how do you know?" Wang Yourong replaced Lu Yuan as the basketball team's [-] whys.

Bai Ye glared at Wang Yourong and didn't want to say anything. In fact, An Yi told him this when he had dinner with An Yi last week.

"Okay, regardless of whether he is the number one high school student in Japan, we must win today's game! We have been training for more than two months, and we are here to win the championship!"

As Gao Jing said this, the school bus had already stopped, and the Licheng Olympic Sports Center had arrived.

Bai Ye got out of the car, looked at the miniature version of the Olympic Sports Center gymnasium, and suddenly lost interest in her heart.Suddenly, an idea had never appeared in his mind, and he was thinking, what is he planning to come to this small place?

"If Lu Yuan isn't here, what's the point of me winning this championship..."
