[Slam Dunk] Undefended heart

On this day, Kaoru was going to pick up things from the club office, but he was attracted by the sound of the violin coming from the music classroom at the end of the corridor. He stopped and listened for a while, and finally Kaoru walked over.

The door of the music classroom was only ajar, but Kaoru opened it with a slight push. At the window, an elegant woman was concentrating on playing the violin. Perhaps because her back was facing the door, she didn't notice it. Until the appearance of Kaoru.

After the song was over, the woman sighed faintly, and then stared at the bow in her hand in a daze.

"It's really not like you to play the wrong syllable, Shimizu-senpai."

A slightly joking voice came from behind, Shimizu Qianyin looked back in surprise, only to see Kaoru leaning against the door with her arms folded and looking at her, she didn't know how long she had been here.

"I made you laugh." Thinking of her mistakes just now, Shimizu, who has always strived for perfection, felt a little ashamed, but after thinking about it, she couldn't help being a little surprised that Kaoru could even detect such small details. Could it be that she Have you ever studied music?

Kaoru walked to a black piano next to her, stroked the smooth piano cover, and asked, "Sister Shimizu-senpai, do you have something on your mind?"

She was seen through immediately, and Qing Shui didn't know what to say. Could it be that she was so obvious?

As if not waiting for Shimizu's answer, Kaoru opened the piano cover, and pressed a few times casually on the keys with her white fingers. Just when Shimizu thought she would play the next song, Kaoru suddenly withdrew her hand, and then resumed. Cover the piano cover.

"Is it because you were invited to continue your studies in Vienna after winning the violin competition?" Kaoru looked sideways at Shimizu standing by the window, and said coldly.

"Hey, how did you know?!" Shimizu had long heard that Kaoru was very capable, but she didn't know that she even knew about this. She had never mentioned it to anyone, even Mitsui...

"Sure enough." Shimizu's reaction just confirmed Kaoru's guess. Seeing Shimizu looking at him in disbelief, Kaoru explained with a smile, "After winning the All Japan Youth Violin Competition, it is also a consistent thing for me to have the opportunity to go abroad for further study. It's a tradition, so it's not hard to guess."

Of course, she also knew some people in the music industry, and it was easy for her to get some gossip. Kaoru didn't mention this point.

Shimizu nodded, not doubting Kaoru's words.

"You can go to the famous music school in Vienna for further studies. This should be the dream of everyone who studies classical music. You are so troubled. Is it related to Senior Mitsui? You haven't told him about it yet, have you?" Kaoru Although the words were interrogative, the tone was very firm.

"……"all hit!

Qing Shui glanced at Xun with complicated emotions, and sighed, "Xun, has anyone told you that you are really scary sometimes..." It seemed that there was never any secret in front of her.

"No!" Kaoru answered very simply, and at the end, she added with a smile, "It's not 'sometimes', most people think I've always been scary."

In fact, Shimizu regretted what she said just now. She thought that her unintentional words would hurt Xun, but she didn't expect Xun to laugh at herself so generously after listening to it. Her expression was not lonely and sad. Negative emotions such as , it seems that other people's opinions are not important to her at all.Qing Shui felt relieved after thinking about it, Xun has always been a willful person who almost does his own way, and really doesn't care about these things, this time it's her small belly.

Qing Shui has always been very well-educated, so he also classified the problem as his own small belly in this matter. If it were someone else, he would probably only have one thought, and that is, "use the heart of a gentleman to treat a villain." belly'……

Now that there was nothing to hide, Shimizu told Kaoru, "Now is the critical time of the competition, and I don't want to bother Mitsui with my own affairs."

Although Qing Shui said so, there was a voice in her heart that kept mocking her for thinking too highly of herself. Why did she think that this matter would bother Mitsui?Or, in her heart, she always hoped that Mitsui would care about her...

But Xun obviously didn't think this way, "You are really kind..." This is a great opportunity to see whether the other party cares about her, but she didn't even take advantage of it. It's booming.

Seeing that Shimizu was silent again, Kaoru asked, "When is the date of going abroad?"

"The school procedures are almost done, so I bought a ticket for the day after tomorrow." In the end, Shimizu decided to go to Vienna. She has always understood Mitsui's dream, because she also has a dream that she has been pursuing, but she did not expect to face It will be the current dilemma...

"Are you free tomorrow?" Xun heard the words, but did not show any surprise.

Seeming to have guessed what Kaoru was going to say next, Shimizu nodded and said, "I'll go to San...Shohoku's game tomorrow."

"Well, after the competition is over tomorrow, you can go and talk to senior Mitsui clearly." Kaoru also watched Shimizu and Mitsui go all the way, and she didn't want them to end like this.

Kaoru said it lightly, but Shimizu was really taken aback, "Huh? Tomorrow is just the group finals, and there will be finals next. How can I go and talk about myself at this time?!" Sometimes I miss After taking the opportunity at the beginning, it becomes more and more difficult to speak out later...

Xun glanced at her resentfully, and said, "Who cares about you, I'll tell you if you don't tell me." What's the point of living with so many worries? !

Regarding tomorrow's group finals, with Xiangbei lacking two main players and Xiangyang being the best team, Kaoru is actually not optimistic about this match.She didn't mention these words to anyone, including Feng, but she understood that Feng might be more aware of these issues than she was.

"..." This is the first time in Qing Shui's life that he has seen such a domineering person like Xun, but for some reason, with such an order from her, the things that he had been hesitating and unable to make up his mind to do before seem to be less troubled, maybe she I've always wanted to do this from the bottom of my heart...

Just then, Kaoru's cell phone rang.

"Hey, Ayako-senpai...I've been delayed by something, so I'm coming here...Okay, goodbye." After receiving a call from Ayako, Kaoru remembered that she had returned to the office to pick up things.

Anyway, she said what she should say, so Kaoru got up and left, but Shimizu stopped her when she didn't want to.

"Kun..."

Kaoru looked back at Shimizu in confusion, thinking violently in her heart, if she dared to hesitate again, she would beat her until she woke up.

"Do you have a dream?" Qing Shui didn't know that he was lucky to escape a fat beating.

"Dream?" Xun raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then replied with a smile, "I've never had that kind of thing before, but now I have it. My dream is Maple."

Xun's tone was unprecedentedly firm, Qing Shui was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then chuckled lightly, that's it, maybe that's not bad...

If a dream is too easy to realize, it may be difficult to call it a dream.It's not that Kaoru has never been interested in other things since she was born, but she always succeeds easily, and the things that originally interested her quickly become boring. , Kaoru felt that life was extremely boring, until one day, she met Rukawa again, and then she finally found the dream she had been pursuing.

The match between Xiangbei and Xiangyang was scheduled for the morning of the next day. The fierce battle between the two teams was still vivid in everyone's memory. Now that the two heroes meet again, the fans will naturally not be absent.

Faced with the first full-seat event since the start of the game, Kakuda and Ishii, who replaced Akagi and Sakuragi, suddenly felt pressured. Are they really okay?The opponent is that Xiangyang High School...

"Hey, you two cheer me up and believe in your own strength!" The nervousness of the two naturally fell into Caizi's eyes. Although Caizi spoke out to encourage her, she still felt somewhat uncertain.

Compared with Caizi, Kaoru seemed much more relaxed. Her attention was only on Rukawa from the beginning to the end. Of course, she has always been like this, and everyone is not surprised.

After the short pre-match practice, the game finally started. This time, Fujima did not sit on the coach's bench, but came up as a player.

Someone once said that without Fujima, Xiangyang can only be regarded as a strong team in the county, but once Fujima joins, Xiangyang will immediately become a nationally strong team. Have experience.

Because they are all in the original lineup, the tacit understanding among Xiangyang players is excellent, which makes Fujima more comfortable in passing the ball and organizing offense. In addition to the shame of losing to Xiangbei last time, the fighting spirit of Xiangyang players this time They are all very expensive, and the situation will be very unfavorable to Xiangbei as soon as it comes up.

But Shohoku is not a fuel-efficient lamp. After the baptism of two major competitions, the strength of Miyagi, Mitsui and Rukawa can undoubtedly be called the top level in the country, especially Rukawa. His current strength is no longer Sho Yang's striker can block it.

After several times of Rukawa's overwhelming attacks, Fujima immediately adjusted his strategy, sent two players to adopt a two-man defense against Rukawa, and focused the attack on Hanakata.Fujima knows very well that Shohoku, the new center forward who replaced Akagi, is not Hanakata's opponent at all. Sakuragi is not there this time. Except for Rukawa, who is closely guarded, Shohoku has almost no rebounders, and Xiangyang It has the advantage in this regard.

The development of the game was just as Fujima expected. In the one-sided situation at the basket, Xiangyang succeeded again and again, while for Xiangbei, Mitsui and Rukawa were all relying on Mitsui and Rukawa to recover the lost points, but both of them were stared at. The points gained after finally scoring a goal are just a drop in the bucket.

It’s not that Kakuda and Ishii didn’t work hard. In fact, they have tried their best, but the gap in strength is too big after all. After all, the loopholes caused by the departure of Akagi and Sakuragi cannot be made up, and even Coach Anzai is helpless.

"71-90", Xiangbei lost to Xiangyang by 19 points, ending the journey of the winter competition early.

Although Xiangbei lost this game, everyone did their best, so there are not many regrets, but there is one person, maybe an exception...

In the stands, Shimizu looked at Mitsui who stood on the three-point line and stared at the basket for a long time, with complicated eyes.

At this time, Yamazaki and her younger brother were talking next to her...

"Sister, didn't you say that Shohoku is very strong? Not at all! The others are not bad, but the center and power forward are not enough, really!" Although Shohoku lost the game, Ryosuke Yamazaki felt like himself It's like losing a game, very upset, if he played, he would never lose!

Seeing that his elder sister was still a little sad, Ryosuke patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, "Old sister, it's all right, I will definitely take you to the national competition next year, I am a man of my word!"

Yamazaki gave Ryosuke a stinky face with a smile, and said very seriously, "You are far behind Rukawa-san, and I will work harder on you in the future."

"Old sister, be nice to me!" Sister Xun, help!

……

Shimizu was not in the mood to listen anymore, because she saw Mitsui leaving, so she stood up quickly, bid farewell to Yamazaki, and chased after him.

"Mitsui!" Shimizu managed to catch up with Mitsui in front, already out of breath.

Mitsui stopped and looked back at Shimizu puzzled, not knowing why she suddenly stopped him.

"That...that, the match just now was such a pity." Shimizu saw Mitsui's hard work, and she really felt sorry for him.

Hearing this, Mitsui couldn't help but frowned, the last thing he needed at the moment was sympathy, especially her sympathy.

Akagi and Mugure withdrew after the end of the summer competition. He has persisted until now, because he wasted the previous two years, so he cherishes this last chance, but he did not expect to use such a It ended in a disastrous defeat, he was very unwilling, but more regretful, he regretted that he had not fulfilled his bold promise when he entered school - leading Xiangbei to dominate the world!

Seeing that Mitsui didn't speak, Shimizu knew that he didn't want to mention the matter at this time, so he didn't say anything more. Thinking of Kaoru's "encouragement" to him before, Shimizu plucked up his courage and said, "I'm going to Vienna tomorrow. , so I want to say goodbye to you one last time."

Vienna? !Mitsui looked at Shimizu in amazement, not having time to digest this unexpected news in his heart.

Seemingly seeing Mitsui's surprise, Shimizu explained, "I won the violin competition before, so I got the opportunity to go to Vienna for further studies."

In other words, she had decided to go abroad for further studies early in the morning, but she told him only the day before departure that he thought he was somewhat important to her, but it turned out that he just felt too good about himself...

Shimizu bit his lower lip, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and said to Mitsui, "Actually, I have liked you since the first time I saw you!"

Looking at Shimizu who was blushing in surprise, Mitsui forced himself to calm down and said coldly, "So what?"

So what... These words echoed in Qing Shui's mind countless times, the tension and excitement of the previous confession seemed to be completely extinguished by a basin of cold water, it was so cold to the bone.

"It's nothing, then I won't bother you, please continue to work hard in the future." Qing Shui tried to raise a smile, then turned and left sadly.

Looking at the back of Shimizu leaving, Mitsui lowered his eyes slightly, what's the use of saying these now?Let this never-beginning relationship end with his last summer...

The author has something to say: I don’t want to write more about the winter competition, so I’ll just explain it this way. In fact, I think it’s impossible to dominate the country with a lineup like Xiangbei’s, so the focus is still on the next year’s summer competition. Let Tengzhen make a dream come true... Momo's dear mother, don't explain [shame~]
