[Net King + Black Basket] Seijuro, your mother calls you to go home for dinner!

Xun Li spends time almost every day at street basketball courts to watch teenagers squander their youth and sweat on the court. As their loyal audience, it is impossible to be defeated by wind or thunder.

Because of this, the teenagers exchanged names with her out of curiosity and became acquainted with her day by day.The names of the two boys who caught her attention were Fire God Taiga and Himuro Tatsuya.The movements of the two of them are orderly, and their skills have surpassed the level of children of the same age. They must have been guided by professionals.

One day, she couldn't bear it anymore, jumped up from the bench, and borrowed a basketball from them on a whim to play.

At first, the friends who heard that Xunli was going to play basketball were all shocked and looked at each other in blank dismay.On weekdays, she just sits on the sidelines and watches them play. No one knows how much she knows about basketball, whether she is just passing the time or really appreciates the sport.

"Hey big sister (...), can you play basketball?" Mike the golden retriever muttered.

Xunli was gearing up, looking eager to try.No one could bear to dampen her high mood.

"Just give it to her." Vulcan bumped Mike with his shoulder, and the latter reluctantly threw the ball to a certain eldest sister whose hands were itchy.

She easily supported the center of gravity of the ball with one finger, and the basketball spun around her fingertips as if cast a spell. This is a finger-style movement in freestyle.

The teenagers were taken aback again, they didn't expect that this eldest sister has two brushes!

"It's not enough to just spin the ball!" Vulcan shouted, "Do you want three three or warm-up first?"

"Tiger!!" Vulcan is too ungentlemanlike!

However, Xun Li was amused by his outspoken way of speaking, and shrugged, "Don't bully the old man, my physical strength can't keep up with you."

Vulcan was embarrassed, obviously not believing that she was the "old man" in his own mouth.Although she is only in her early thirties, as young as a college student in her prime, teenagers will always refer to her as "big sister" instead of "auntie".They didn't expect that Xunli was already a mother.

"Three-point shooting." Himuro nodded and looked at her, holding another basketball in one hand.This proposal was unanimously approved.They also want to test Xun Li's ability.

Xunli nodded briskly, and compared shooting with a boy in the same grade as Seijuro, it would be too embarrassing if he failed miserably!

"toss a coin?"

"You can come first."

She aimed the ball at the basket with both hands, maybe because she was the first to play, she was a little nervous, and it might take a few rounds to get into the state.

The first shot wasn't a great shot, and the ball took two and a half laps around the rim before falling in.There were applause and whistles scattered around.She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she was lucky!

Ice Room's shooting skills and posture are impeccable, and his movements are clean and neat. This is definitely the result of hard practice over time.

Immediately afterwards, Xun Li scored another goal.

The third ball was unfortunately missed, and the fourth ball was even worse than the previous round.Xunli was sweating profusely behind his back, complaining in his heart that his concentration had declined.By contrast, Iceroom made all four of his shots.

Ignoring the enthusiastic booing around her, she concentrated and gradually found the touch, and the next three goals all hit the heart.

"It's amazing!!" Vulcan sat on the railing and yelled loudly, "Hey! Sister, do you play basketball?"

Xun Li pushed back the hair on his forehead, squinted his eyes and looked at him, "It can only be said that I haven't played for a long time, and my skills have deteriorated."

The final result was seven to eight, and Xunli lost to the second-year middle school junior by one point.She sighed depressingly a few times, but quickly cheered up and shook hands with Bingshi.

"Young man, you have a future!"

"You didn't give full play today." Bingshi's face softened, and his attitude towards her was not as alienated and indifferent as before.

It was seen!Xunli nodded, and the boy in the ice room found a step for himself.

The Vulcan, who had been beaten like chicken blood, ran off the field excitedly and asked her if she wanted to compete with him again, Xun Li shook his head, and only said to fight again in the future.She was already sweating after just ten shots. Xunli felt that her physical strength was not as good as before, so she might as well try to adjust her body to the best condition in her spare time.

Before leaving, Vulcan reminded her to remember to come back next time, Xun Li smiled and gestured OK to him.

The fact that Xun Li got along with a bunch of middle school students was laughed at by Mai for a long time, complaining that she wanted to regain her lost youth.Xun Li didn't care about this, put on the earphones at six o'clock in the morning, hummed the rhythm of "weareyoung" and went for a morning run.

She didn't break the good work and rest time cultivated in the rehabilitation center, and kept enough sleep and physical exercise, which was almost as perfect as Seijuro's perfect schedule.

Speaking of Seijuro...

Xunli's eyes darkened, her death day was only four days away from his birthday, the psychological shadow caused to this child must be irreparable.

She is not an impulsive and ill-considered teenager. Even if she goes back at this juncture, she will not be able to gain a foothold in Japan, not to mention she will not be able to face their father and son.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

She hides this indescribable pain in the deepest Pandora's box in her heart, and it will be opened sooner or later.

It was dark at that time, and after jogging twice around the community on a refreshing winter morning, we could wait for the sunrise.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on his body after the exercise. Xunli went home and took a shower, went to work in the shop after breakfast, and went to school in the afternoon to evening.

The fact that she was only in the third year of university made her feel a little embarrassed. If she hadn't been tricked into Japan by Matsubara, she would not have been forced to suspend her studies.

Xunli was full of fighting spirit, and clenched his hands hanging by his sides into fists, and there was something more in his eyes that he didn't have a few years ago.Since Kanai Xingzhi and Akashi Nanami think that she is not qualified, she will take this as the goal-to borrow a sentence from Seijuro, the next is the best!

Life is not all about family, and Xun Li, who came back from a visit to the gate of hell, has a lot of feelings.She is considered a person who "died once", and this time the newborn has to live for herself.

Entering the middle of winter, playing basketball seems to be a very good way to exercise.For this reason, Xunli went to a sporting goods store to buy a basketball and did ball-handling training at home.She wanted to find the wristbands that she used on the basketball team back then, but she didn't know where she got them, or she threw away such a commemorative item when she moved. She only regretted for a few seconds and immediately forgot about the wristbands. back.

A week later, she agreed to Vulcan's request and scored a ten-to-ten score with him-the astonished expressions of her friends made her unforgettable.

"Shooting 100%!?"

"It doesn't matter if it's Tiger, that big sister actually—"

Xunli thought that her shooting percentage was not the best in the team. As a PG (point guard), she naturally became the captain because of her uniform ability development. In fact, she is better at assists and baseline dribbling.

Vulcan blushed with excitement, "Sister, let's come to threeonthree!"

"I……"

Xun Li glanced at this group of strong teenagers whose average height was higher than hers, and wanted to refuse but couldn't find a suitable reason.Most of the opponents she met in the past were stronger than herself, and the height of Asians compared with purebred foreigners was simply too cruel (Vulcan was an exception), so she abandoned her favorite PF (Power Forward) position without hesitation.

She changed her mind and thought again, since she wanted to compete, she couldn't sweat in vain.Xun Li smiled slyly at him, "The loser should invite the winner to dinner!"

The team members in the same group wanted to applaud, but when they found out that the opponent was Vulcan, the big stomach king, they wanted to cry without tears.This is a big joke...

**

December [-]th.

Japan.

The racetrack was covered in plain white, and the pure white horses almost blended into the snow scene. They ran wildly on the field, and a strong wind blew up wherever they passed.

The red hair under the brim of the hat brushed his cheeks, Seijuro leaned down, his bright eyes stared straight ahead.

……

The biggest difference between living and dying is ideology.A person who can think is alive, but thinking is eroding his brain, making him unable to relax all the time.So he needs some special way of decompression.

Horsemanship and basketball, they allow him to experience the joy/feeling of freedom like the wind, and chess makes him not have time to think about other things other than the chess game-he needs to forget temporarily.

Seijuro tightened the reins, and after a few laps motioned for it to slow down.He quickly got off the horse and patted it like an old friend.Yukimaru also nuzzled his shoulder affectionately with the tip of her nose.Animals are often more emotional than humans.

Equestrianism became his only outdoor sport in winter.Even if it was a birthday, Seijuro didn't think it was anything to celebrate.Therefore, he rejected the wish of Diguang's friends to hold a party for him.What's more, he has never brought outsiders to his mansion.

He just wanted to spend the first day of his 14th year alone quietly.

Seijuro walked all the way back to the warm house. Butler Shikawa said that when he was away, a few packages were delivered by courier and placed in the study.

The study room became his second bedroom. In fact, except for his parents, everyone was entitled to set foot in his bedroom.

He nodded uninterestedly, presumably it was another birthday present from some wealthy kids of his own age who had connections with his family, and usually he would throw it directly into the storage room.

Seijuro found surnames such as "Atobe" and "Hiyoshi" among the piles of exquisitely packaged gifts piled up in the shape of a hill, and he picked and picked the ones they sent (usually these gifts are of some value).As for Kanai's gift, he admitted that he unwrapped it out of curiosity.

The three-piece suit of the new HugoBoss really fits Kanai's style. Seijuro frowned, resisting the urge to throw it away.Xunli once told him not to pursue luxury goods excessively, let alone extravagance and waste.So he decided to put it in the bottom of the box.

Among the many gifts, what caught his attention was an anonymous postal package. The name of the recipient was not written on it, and the sending address was actually an ordinary post office.

Seijuro thought for a while, ruled out the possibility that it was a "fraudulent letter/threat package", and unhurriedly opened the outer package.

After unpacking the encyclopedia, there is still a layer of plastic shell, then paper shell, gift box, and gift box again...

When he reached the last floor, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart beat faster.Rubbing the edge of the box with his fingertips, this little action betrayed his uneasy mood.

—Wristguards?

He stared at a pair of old wristbands in a brand-new gift box for some reason. They were the most common black ordinary models on the market.Although Seijuro didn't have a wristband, he never thought of playing in it.

There was a short note folded in half at the bottom of the box with the wristband inlaid, Seijuro opened it in a mysterious way, and said softly, "It used to belong to the person who loved you the most in the world, and now it belongs to you—keep it good."

The host who prepared the gift wrote crooked Japanese characters. He had never seen this person's handwriting.However, the other party's message made him suddenly startled, and there was more responsible emotion in the gaze that touched the wristband again.

The person who loves him the most is naturally Xunli.She was also the main player of the basketball team, so this wristband must belong to her.Seijuro was stunned by his behavior. He didn't doubt the identity of the sender, and he wasn't sure why he believed the message on the note.

The wristbands that have been preserved for many years are limp and have long passed their useful life.What Seijuro didn't like at first was held in his hands carefully, as if he saw more things through the wristband.

...saw memories.

The memorabilia that witnessed the bond between Kaoru and basketball is now passed down to Seijuro, and it will once again witness the miracle he created.

The author has something to say: Come on Xun Li, it takes time to become stronger =A=

In addition, the red team does not seem to wear wrist guards in games, so I hereby indicate to the original party.

Thank you very much for the little angels’ messages. There is still one chapter left in my manuscript. In addition, there are mid-term exams every week from early October to mid-October. After that, I have to start preparing for thesis.
