The so-called insomnia refers to the inability to fall asleep or maintain a sleep state, resulting in insufficient sleep. Or poor quality, etc., is a common disease.

Closing the dictionary, Rukawa finally found a reasonable explanation for his inability to fall asleep. It turned out that he was sick.

Rukawa was originally a casual person, and he didn't think too much about complicated things. Now that he had found the reason, he didn't bother about why he suddenly suffered from insomnia tonight.

Unable to fall asleep anyway, Rukawa simply opened the door and went for a walk in the courtyard.

It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, and except for a few dim street lights on the side of the road, the whole world seemed to be immersed in darkness. This was a novel experience for Rukawa. It turned out that the world at night was like this, and he had never experienced it before. I know.

Looking up at the dark sky, there are no stars and no moon. Kaoru once told him that this indicates that tomorrow may be cloudy.

It's cloudy... Rukawa frowned indistinctly. If possible, he still hopes to compete in sunny weather.Thinking of tomorrow's trials, Rukawa couldn't help showing an expression of determination to win. Although Lika facilitated this event, he would not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Thinking of Dean in Delin High School, the basketball kingdom of America, thinking of all kinds of powerful enemies, thinking of his common dream with Hiiragi... Rukawa couldn't help feeling a rush of blood in his heart.

Rukawa knew that these were what he had always dreamed of, but why was there a trace of anxiety and fear that could not be wiped away deep in his heart?

Looking at the closed window on the third floor opposite, Rukawa knew that the owner there was no longer there, but he always felt that she would suddenly open the window, and then shouted his name loudly with a bright smile.

I heard from my mother that Xun will go back to Italy with her cousin tomorrow, can't she come to the selection competition...

Rukawa shook his head as soon as this idea came up. He couldn't be so selfish. Kaoru was helping him in the past. Now that Kaoru's cousin is going to take her to Italy for treatment, he should support her!

When Kaoru recovers, she will definitely come back to find him, she...will come back...

Rukawa suddenly became uncertain again.

On the second day, after bidding farewell to his mother who hesitated to speak, Rukawa set off for the selection hall with a pair of panda eyes.

This selection competition has received great attention. There are more than 500 contestants from all over the country.

Along the way, Rukawa met many powerful enemies who had encountered in the national competition. After greeting each other, he stopped talking. After all, everyone is now a competitor. Like these two...

"Rukawa, I didn't expect you to be so nervous that you didn't fall asleep all night! How unconfident are you with such big panda eyes?!" Kiyota pointed at Rukawa and leaned back with a smile, completely ignoring He saw the two giant panda eyes that he also had, which were even worse.

"The two of you are too poor, that's why you are so scared that you can't sleep at night, like this genius, I have never had any troubles in this area, ahahaha~~~" Sakuragi looked up to the sky and laughed, completely disregarding me. Whose proud appearance, but the large shadow in front of him shamefully betrayed him.

"Red-haired monkey, I admire your spirit of focusing on participation. Although self-knowledge is the most important thing in a person, a few people are needed for such a large-scale trial." Qingtian said with a look on his face. He patted Sakuragi's shoulder emotionally.

Sakuragi unceremoniously waved away Kiyota's paw, and said disdainfully, "I'm just defeated, hmph~~~"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Qingtian became angry, "Although we in Hainan lost to you in Xiangbei this year, I don't admit that I lost to you as an idiot!"

"Who are you calling an idiot, wild monkey?!"

"Is there anyone here who is better than you?"

……

If he had encountered such a situation before, Rukawa would always complain about the two of them viciously, but for some reason, he couldn't arouse the slightest interest today.

After going straight to get the number plate, Rukawa began to warm up by himself, but he was obviously out of shape.

Another missed shot, Rukawa couldn't help but frowned, what happened today...

"It's not like you at all."

Rukawa was stunned for a moment, followed the prestige in surprise, and saw that Xiandao had already sat on the sidelines at some point, but he didn't notice it at all.

"Are you surprised that I appear here?" Xiandao shook the number plate in his hand, which was self-evident.

Did he really come to participate in the trials?

Unlike Sakuragi and Kiyota, Rukawa did not dare to be careless about the formidable enemy of Xiandao.

The two were speechless for a while, and after a moment of silence, Xiandao suddenly dropped a heavy bomb, "You know, I have always liked Kaoru."

Ignoring Rukawa whose face was clearly unhappy, Xiandao seemed to be lost in memory and said to himself, "The first time I met Kaoru, I remember it was on a warm afternoon when I was lying on my bed Looking at the comics, the sudden noise from outside the house made me curiously go to the window. When I saw the people from the moving company moving the furniture one by one to the house next door, I knew it was our new neighbor who had arrived I was planning to go back and continue to read my comics, but the appearance of a little girl caught my attention, maybe it was aware of my gaze, the little girl suddenly looked up at me, and then I saw a sun-like Big smile..."

As Xiandao said, he couldn't help but smiled and gestured for a height, "At that time, Kaoru was only so tall. She was small and very cute, just like a delicate doll in the window. At that time, I thought , if I have such a younger sister, then I will definitely send the most beautiful things in the world to her. However, when I grew up a little later, I began to regret that such a cute girl should be kept It's good to be a wife." If he hadn't chosen to be a brother and sister at the beginning, would the ending be different?Xiandao would sometimes ask himself this question, but this is all if, so he will never know the answer.

At the beginning, when Xiandao suddenly announced that he liked Kaoru, Rukawa was extremely upset, but slowly listening to Xiandao's narration, Rukawa's heart calmed down strangely.

Seemingly remembering something interesting, Xiandao suddenly smiled and said to Rukawa, "Do you know why I started playing basketball?"

"..." Hearing the words, Rukawa couldn't help but have black lines all over his head, and he doesn't have the ability to predict the future, so how could he know this.

Xiandao didn't seem to care much about Rukawa's answer, and started to talk about it, "Before I met Kaoru, I actually joined the baseball club, and like many boys around me, I dreamed that one day I could stand on the stage of Koshien. Until one day, Kaoru suddenly said to me, 'I think you are very suitable for playing basketball, do you want to try?'... Looking back now, that seems to be the first sentence Kaoru said to me. You know, She always has that kind of magic, people will unconsciously follow her ideas, and my basketball career started like this, looking back and thinking about it, it was really casual at that time, hehe~~”

"You know her very well." Although Rukawa didn't want to admit it, Rukawa knew that Xiandou actually knew Kaoru best.

Xiandao smiled and asked, "What about you?"

"I...don't know." Rukawa originally wanted to say that he certainly knew Kaoru, but when he got to the point of speaking, he became unsure. Did he really know Kaoru completely?

Xiandao propped his hands behind his back, looked up at the ceiling and said, "Xun's appearance is actually very deceiving. Most people will think she is an innocent and cute girl when they first see her, but after getting in touch with her, they will find that the girl She is completely a little devil, and then everyone will keep a distance from her. Xun and I grew up together. After so many years, the people who really walked by Xun's side can be counted on one hand, and they really walked into her heart. Yes, maybe only..." Xiandao glanced at Rukawa, sighed with some emotion, and then continued, "In fact, many people envy Kaoru who is a genius and omnipotent, but I think she is very pitiful. I often get scared, afraid that when there is nothing in this world that interests her, she will choose a way to leave this world without any regrets..."

"Kun her..." Thinking of the girl who always smiled brightly by his side and never seemed to be troubled, Rukawa's heart felt as if someone was tightly grasping it, and it hurt badly.

"Oh, of course you don't know that she will always show her best side in front of you..." Xiandao suddenly stood up from the ground, then stopped two steps away from Rukawa, his eyes were Unprecedented fierceness, "To be honest, your appearance made me jealous and at the same time reassured me a lot. I thought you could protect Xun in my place, but I didn't expect you to be a complete coward. I really feel worthless for Xun. You don't deserve her at all."

Rukawa has never seen such a fairy way before, his words were like a steel nail pierced into Rukawa's already bleeding heart, Rukawa wanted to refute, but his throat seemed to be tightly strangled Can't make any sound at all.Not so, no!He can also take good care of Kaoru, no!Kaoru can only be guarded by him!To him, Kaoru is to him...

Seeing that Rukawa was still silent, Xiandao was completely disappointed with him, "Not everyone is willing to wait for you unconditionally, I hope you won't regret it in the future."

After finishing speaking, Xiandao turned around and left. That was the beloved girl he had silently cared for for ten years. He couldn't bear to see the slightest worry on her brows and eyes. If possible, how much he hoped that the person by her side would be himself In that case, he would never let her suffer the slightest grievance, but he was not the one in Xun's heart after all.

Hey, Kaoru, is this man really worth so much from you?In the end, I can only do so much for you...

"Please enter Rukawa Kaede from number 108 as soon as possible! Please enter Rukawa Kaede from number 108 as soon as possible!"

Ah... His name is being called, it's time for him to play, Rukawa stared blankly at the basketball in his hand, but he never took the step to go to the basketball kingdom of the United States for further studies. This is a crucial step for him to realize his dream. What are you still hesitating about?Isn't this what he has always dreamed of...

Subconsciously raised his head to look at the stands beside him, there were many spectators here today but there was no sign of that person alone, since when did he take her existence for granted?

Rukawa didn't know, he really didn't know, he wished that Kaoru was by his side, and then told him what to do, just like before, but Kaoru wasn't there, so he could only solve this problem by himself.

My heart is so chaotic and uncomfortable, when did he become like this?In the past, he obviously only needed to have a basketball. Why did Kaoru appear in his life? Without her, wouldn't he feel this kind of pain?As soon as this idea came up, Rukawa found that his heart hurt even more. It turned out that...compared with the pain now, he couldn't accept the fact that Kaoru Nanase was not in his life!

The basketball in his hand rolled down to the floor, making a thumping sound, but Rukawa still didn't move, the voice on the radio seemed to be gradually moving away from him, and his world seemed to be back to the first time he met Kaoru the day...

"My name is Kaoru Nanase, Kaede Rukawa, we will definitely meet again."

She broke into his life domineeringly like that, and then lived in his heart domineeringly. She really has her style!

"Hey, Rukawa, what are you laughing at? Didn't you hear your name being called on the radio? Why don't you come over!" When Sakuragi found Rukawa, he saw him standing alone on the field with a bright smile Let him think for a moment that he recognized the wrong person.

Rukawa looked sideways at Sakuragi, the corners of his mouth still kept an upward arc, "Sakuragi, go for it."

After finishing speaking, Rukawa ran out of the venue without looking back, leaving behind Sakuragi with a frightened face, I'll wipe it!He must have seen hell, is that guy really Rukawa? !

Airport waiting hall——

"Little Kaoru, it's almost time for us to board the plane." Rin glanced at the luggage at Kaoru's feet, the meaning in his eyes was unclear.

Kaoru couldn't help but looked back at the door of the waiting hall, obviously a little absent-minded, "Oh..."

"Who are you waiting for?" Rin felt that if he pretended to be deaf and dumb, it would be too fake. He never knew that his little cousin, who has always been omnipotent, had such a cute side. If the elders in the family knew about it, they would have laughed for several years.

"No!" Kaoru hurriedly withdrew her gaze, trying her best to look like she didn't care about anything.

Seeing this, Rin couldn't help but sighed, "You should have known that between basketball and you, he would always choose basketball. What you did in the end just made yourself more embarrassed, so embarrassing , not at all like you."

Hearing Rin tell the cruel truth unceremoniously, Kaoru couldn't help but tighten the ticket in his hand, isn't it like her... the moment she met Feng, she was no longer like herself.

She stays by his side with a deadpan face, happy for his joy, worried about his worry, even the slightest attention in his eyes can make her happy for several days, and in the end she even makes the mistake of making a mistake by car accident. Fake amnesia to prove that Feng is not just used to her...Xun felt that she was despicable, not only deceived Feng, but also forced Feng to accept her. Does she really deserve such a beautiful Feng?

She never gave up the word in Nanase Kaoru's dictionary, but this time, she has decided not to use her own consciousness to persecute Feng, she wants to set him free and free him from his bondage!However, even though she has come to her senses, why does her heart still hurt so much...

"Rin, let's go." Kaoru raised her head and took a deep breath, then raised her smile and resolutely walked towards the ticket gate.

Laughing is uglier than crying, so why pretend to be strong in front of him?Rin looked at Kaoru's back with complicated eyes. It seems that he really underestimated Xiao Kaoru's feelings for Rukawa boy this time. To let Xiao Kaoru make such a concession, he definitely loves him badly. He would rather endure it by himself. It was a heart-breaking pain, and I didn't want him to have the slightest reluctance.

"Please show your ticket."

"Xun!!!"

Just when Kaoru was about to hand out the ticket, a voice that was so familiar that it made her tremble suddenly came from not far behind.

Is it him... is it really him?Isn't it her hallucination...

Kaoru bit her lower lip hard, forcing herself to withdraw the tears that had condensed around her eyes, and then tried hard to practice a simple smile before slowly turning her head away.

The person she was thinking of was standing thirty steps away from her panting at the moment, with anxiety in her eyes that she had never seen before.

Kaoru's feet uncontrollably walked towards Rukawa, can she still expect something... "Why are you here? Aren't you going to participate in the trials today? Could it be over..."

"Don't go!"

"...What did you say?" Kaoru felt like he was hallucinating.

Rukawa stepped forward and grabbed Kaoru's hand, and said firmly, "Stay with me."

Kaoru had never seen Rukawa like this before, and she was suddenly afraid that she would accidentally make a mistake, so she turned her eyes away and said in a low voice, "I want to stay too, but my parents have already helped me contact the Rukawa in Italy." It doesn't seem good not to go to school, and here, everything that should be done has been done, and I have no reason to stay."

"You don't, I do."

Under Kaoru's surprised eyes, Rukawa suddenly reached out to hold her face, and then took the initiative to put a hot kiss on her lips for the first time.

"Because Rukawa Kaede can't live without Kaoru Nanase." After speaking, Rukawa hugged Kaoru tightly into his arms, as if he had imitated it thousands of times in his heart.

"Feng..." The tears that Xun had been holding back finally burst. He didn't say he liked, let alone love, but this was the best confession Xun had ever heard in his life.

Xun forcefully hugged the boy in front of him whom he loved so much, "Feng, you have to be prepared, you don't want to get rid of me again in your life." She had already set him free before, but who knew he would Then don't blame her for being rude.

When Rukawa heard this, the expression on his face was unprecedentedly gentle, "I wish for it."

She always thought that he was the one who fell into her hands, but only he knew that since he first saw her, he had actually been deeply involved...

On the way back, Rukawa dragged the suitcase with one hand and held Kaoru's hand with the other, and the road ahead was no longer hesitating.

"Feng, what about the trials?"

"Well, it's warped."

"Then how about going to America?"

"Well, there is always a way."

"maple……"

"Ok?"

"Why don't you ask me why my amnesia suddenly recovered?"

"Why do you ask? It's fine."

"Feng, I found you are super handsome!"

"..."o(*////▽////*)o

"I feel like I've forgotten something..."

"Illusion."

"I think so too."

……

Rin, who was forgotten in the corner of the airport, has no words to ask the sky at this moment, if he will give a little trouble to that idiot couple in the future, his surname will not be Nanase!
