[Slam Dunk] Undefended heart

As for the winter trials, most schools only regard it as a prelude to the summer competition, and at the same time, it is also to hone the freshman team. Because of this, Xiangyang, which has retained the best team, can easily stand out among many new teams.

After successively defeating the Hainan High School attached to the lack of super ace Mu Shenyi and the freshman Lingnan High School, Xiangyang High School successfully represented Kanagawa to advance to the national competition.

In the national competition, Xiangyang made it all the way to the semi-finals, and finally lost to Daiei College in Osaka, and the championship was once again won by Sanno Industry. Active preparations for the summer competition.

It is still winter, is it too early to prepare for next year's summer competition?

No!In fact, a battle without gunpowder has already begun between the schools...

With the retirement of the third grade, there will naturally be new students joining, and the quality of the freshmen's qualifications will directly affect the future development of the team. Therefore, selecting excellent reserves for their teams has become a top priority for each school at this stage. The Winter Basketball League for middle school students provides a good platform for this.

This weekend, Rukawa went out to practice as usual, and ran into Kaoru at the door as usual.

"Feng, what a coincidence!" Kaoru greeted Rukawa with a bright smile.

"..." After complaining countless times, Rukawa is now unable to complain, who made him not as thick-skinned as others.

"This is going to practice, come on!" After cheering Rukawa, Kaoru walked in the opposite direction for the first time.

Rukawa reflexively said 'oh', and found something was wrong just after walking a few steps, she...won't she follow? !

"You..." Rukawa wanted to ask 'Aren't you with me' at first, but he swallowed the words again, and always felt that it seemed strange to say that...

Seeing Kaoru looking back at him puzzledly, Rukawa immediately changed his words, "Where are you going?"

"Today happens to be the finals of the Junior High School Winter Basketball League. I'll go over and have a look." Seeing that Rukawa still didn't seem to understand, Kaoru further explained, "I heard that Wushi Middle School, the former alma mater of Senior Mitsui, had a school called Wushi Middle School. The strongest center."

"You want to pull him into Xiangbei?" When Xun said this, Rukawa understood that after this winter trial, the problem of the center really needs to be solved.

Kaoru smiled and said, "Let's see the situation." After all, rumors are often exaggerated, so Kaoru chose to reserve his opinion.

"I'll go with you." Rukawa immediately decided to change the itinerary.

"Eh?!" Could it be that Feng is also interested?

"No?" Rukawa frowned slightly, and he was also a little concerned about the candidate for the center forward.

"Of course, you are very welcome!" What an unexpected development!Dating in disguise~~~

So, after Rukawa went home to play basketball, he and Kaoru set off to the city's gymnasium.

As soon as Kaoru and Rukawa entered the gymnasium, they immediately became the focus of everyone's attention. Of course, Rukawa was the focal point.

"Hey, look! It's Rukawa Kaede from Xiangbei High School!"

"Why did Rukawa come here? Does he even care about Ishida in Wushi?!"

"I heard that all major colleges and universities are now interested in recruiting Ishida, and it seems that Xiangbei is no exception."

"Wow, it's really me! So handsome!"

"Who is that girl next to Rukawa? His girlfriend?"

……

Who is that person in the end? Why is he so discerning!Kaoru couldn't help casting admiring glances, this kid has a future.

Rukawa looked at Kaoru in confusion, who was she looking at?

Poor boy who doesn't know why, one side is full of admiration, the other side is full of hostile stare, it's really a world of ice and fire...

Kaoru and Rukawa chose seats in the front row of the stands, but they ran into an acquaintance instead.

"Isn't this Nanase and Rukawa? What a coincidence, I didn't expect you to come to the game." This person is the coach of Lingnan High School, Tian Gangmoichi.

"Coach Tian Gang, you are still active." Because of Xiandao's relationship, Kaoru and Tian Gang are also familiar, and of course she understands the purpose of Tian Gang's trip.

Rukawa on the side just nodded, as a greeting.

At this moment, when Tian Gang saw Rukawa, he couldn't help but burst into tears again. Why didn't you come to our Lingnan in the first place? !Woo~~

Tian Gang deserves to be Tian Gang, and he quickly recovered from the shock of the past, "I didn't expect Xiangbei to be interested in Ishida, but this time we are bound to win Lingnan." Coach Anxi, this time there will be no more I lost to you!Of course, he won't lose to Cheng Cheng again, he has studied it, and the Ishida family is closer to Lingnan...

"Hehe, we didn't think about snatching it either." If there's anything to grab, anything she likes will naturally belong to her, and he can do whatever he wants with what she doesn't like.

Unlike the open and secret fight between the two, after Rukawa settled down, his attention has been on the game on the court.

The offensive ability of Zhiguang Middle School is obviously higher than that of Wu Shizhong, but the score of the two teams is very tight. This is undoubtedly due to the No. [-] who is stationed under Wu Shizhong's basket, which is what Lingnan coach calls Ishida.

His height should be above 190cm. He should be considered very tall among junior high school students. He is not small, but his movements are not slow, and his jumping ability is not bad. He is indeed a good center.

"Feng, what do you think?" Seeing that Rukawa was watching seriously, Kaoru leaned over and asked softly.

"Not bad." Ishida's strength is undoubtedly higher than Kakuda's.

During the intermission, everyone in Takeishi gathered around Ishida excitedly.

"Ishida, look quickly, not only the coach of the Lingnan team came to watch your game, but even Rukawa Kaede from Xiangbei came!"

"I heard that Xiangyang and Hainan also intend to invite senior Ishida to join them!"

"As expected of Ishida-senpai!"

……

Hiroshi Ishida felt that everyone's praise was very useful, but he has long been used to everyone's pursuit, "Let's focus on the game in front of us first."

"Ishida is right, everyone must not take it lightly!" At this time, Wu Shizhong's coach Fujimura came out to speak, and now is a critical moment. Whether Wu Shizhong can regain the glory of the past depends on it!

Recalling the past, Coach Fujimura couldn't help but think of his most proud student, Hisashi Mitsui. Although he had been silent for two years, Mitsui's performance after his comeback still lived up to expectations.

When everyone was resting, Coach Fujimura said to Ishida alone, "I think Shohoku is a good choice, Ishida, you can consider it." Although it is because of Mitsui on the one hand, Fujimura is more interested in the huge potential of Shohoku.

Hearing this, Ishida sighed helplessly, "Coach, why are you even talking about this? I know that you are quite fond of Xiangbei because of the relationship with Senior Mitsui, but Xiangbei was defeated by Xiangyang in the previous winter trials. In addition, senior Mitsui will leave next year, and it will be difficult for Xiangbei to achieve the same results as this summer.” Compared with Xiangbei, Ishida is more optimistic about Lingnan, where Xiandao is in charge, and he thinks that the players in Xiangbei seem a bit strange ...

Fujimura knew it would be useless to talk too much, so he didn't say anything more.

Ishida looked around and asked the juniors beside him, "Why didn't you see the big tree?"

"Oh, you said Senior Kobayashi, he said he was going to buy you a drink... Ah, Senior Kobayashi is here!"

Following the boy's expectations, I saw a tall and thin man like a bamboo pole walking towards this side. He has overgrown hair, and the bangs parted in the middle can just see his sick appearance. If you want to describe him, everyone will give the same answer without hesitation: ghost!

"Dashu, didn't you tell you not to run around during the competition?" Ishida frowned slightly.

Xiao Lin Dashu lowered his head, like a child who has done something wrong, and whispered, "Well, I think Xiao Hiroshi will definitely be thirsty after the game, so... I'm sorry."

"Okay, I'm not blaming you." For his neighbor and childhood sweetheart, Ishida has always been indifferent.

In the stands—

"Hey, is there such a player in Wushi? He seems to be taller than that Ishida..." Kobayashi's appearance immediately caught Kaoru's attention.

Tian Gang, who was on the side, heard the words and said indifferently, "What's the use of being tall? Look at his appearance as thin as a gust of wind can blow him away. He is definitely not a center forward." For strength confrontation, most of the excellent centers are big, such as Uozumi and Akagi.

"..." Xun rubbed his chin, but didn't speak. From her perspective, if this person can arouse her interest, it means that he should have something special.

In the second half of the game, Ishida's performance became more and more outstanding. Coupled with the tacit cooperation of the players, Wu Shizhong finally defeated Zhiguang Middle School and won the championship, and Ishida was also named the MVP player for this reason.

By the time Kaoru and Rukawa walked off the stands, Ishida was already surrounded by the media and scouts from the high school. Other players also gathered together to celebrate the victory. Only Kobayashi was packing up everyone's leftovers.

Kaoru stood on tiptoe and whispered something in Rukawa's ear. Rukawa raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her. Kaoru nodded at him with a smile.

Rukawa stepped up and walked towards Kobayashi, and when Kobayashi had no time to avoid it, he bumped into it abruptly, but the one who was knocked to the ground turned out to be, Rukawa? !

Sitting on the ground, Rukawa looked up in surprise at Kobayashi, who was still carrying several burdens on his body, as if he hadn't figured out how he was knocked down by this skinny monkey-like guy.

"I'm sorry, are you okay?" Seeing this, Kobayashi quickly reached out to pull Rukawa, and kept apologizing to him.

Feeling the calluses in the opponent's palm, and recalling the feeling of being knocked down just now, Rukawa finally understood why Kaoru cared about this guy.

"Oh, Feng, are you okay?!" At this moment, Kaoru ran up nervously with tears in his eyes.

"..." Rukawa gave her a dark look, did this scene go too far? !

When Kaoru ate the tofu on the grounds of checking his body, Kobayashi was still apologizing, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it..."

Xun hurriedly comforted, "Feng is fine, you don't have to feel guilty, Feng is also wrong about this matter."

"..." Rukawa felt that if the eye knife could kill, he wouldn't mind giving her a few more glances.

"But..." Kobayashi looked at Rukawa, he was embarrassed to say hurtful words, he felt that the boy's eyes were probably knocked crooked by him, otherwise why would he always stare at the girl next to him?Oops, if he had to go to the hospital, his family couldn't afford the medical bills...

Just when Kobayashi looked dull on the surface and burst into tears in his heart, Xun suddenly asked, "Look at your uniform, you are also a player in Wushizhong, right?"

"Ah, yes..." Worse, I have already started to question him about his details...

"I think you are quite tall, and you are a third grader, why didn't you play in the game?" Kaoru began to say positively.

"My golf skills are not good. I will only hinder everyone when I play. It's fine to have Xiaohong here." Tall?Could it be that he wanted him to work as a coolie to offset the medical expenses?That's okay, he has nothing else but the most strength.

"I think you have never played before, so how do you know that your skills are not good?" This person's reaction seems very interesting!

"...Anyway, if it doesn't work, it won't work. It's good for Xiaohong to appear on the stage." Why did she ask so many questions?Where's Xiaohong?

Seeing Ishida surrounded by everyone, Xiao Lin immediately lost his face. It seems that no one can rescue him...

"I said..." Kaoru looked straight at Kobayashi and asked, "Don't you want to play basketball in person? The fun of basketball is not for watching. You think Xiaohong who keeps looking at you like this is satisfied Is it?" The calluses on his hands were caused by practicing diligently. She couldn't believe that a person who doesn't love basketball would spend so much time doing boring and monotonous exercises over and over again. The one beside her is the best. example of.

"..." Xiao Lin was silent.

"Stop living in the shadow of your Xiaohong, if you want to play basketball, come to Shonhoku!" Kaoru said, and left with Rukawa.

When he walked out of the gymnasium, Rukawa couldn't help asking, "What if he still decides not to come?"

The corner of Kaoru's mouth raised an evil arc, "He will come." Even if he didn't want to come, she would have a way to force him to come.

"..." Rukawa glanced at Xun, always feeling that her true face had already been exposed in front of him, but...why did he find her so cute with her bad idea...

On the way home from school, Ishida said excitedly to Kobayashi next to him, "Dashu, just now I talked to Coach Tian Gang from Lingnan, and he said that as long as I enter Lingnan High School, I will immediately become a regular candidate. Decided to go to Lingnan! Dashu, let's join the Lingnan basketball team together, and I will definitely take you to the national competition next year!"

"I've decided to go to Xiangbei." Xiaolin thought for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to tell Ishida what was in his heart.

"Why?!" Xiaolin used to listen to himself in everything, this was the first time he took the initiative to go against his will, and Ishida was really taken aback this time.

Kobayashi looked straight into Ishida's eyes and said firmly, "Because, I want to play basketball."

The author has something to say: Xiangbei's new center is on the stage, I wonder if everyone is satisfied? [Laughs] I tried my best to make the new characters have their own personalities, after all, the original characters are very full ╮(╯▽╰)╭

The strength of Kobayashi Dashu, everyone will understand later, Mitsui's junior, it can be regarded as a kind of inheritance~~【Gripping Claws】
