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

"Hey, do you want to see Seijuro?"

Mai's words made Xunli break the last nerve.

Tears almost gushed out of the eyes and slid down the crevice/gap between the fingertips.She suspected that her tear point was getting lower and lower, and she blamed it on asking the waiter to add too much spice to the curry when ordering.

"One year is enough for you to adjust your status, or...you dare not see him (them)?"

"I don't know." When that name was mentioned, the blood in her whole body boiled, she was restless and clamored to see him, but what if he had forgotten herself?What if—as Mai said, they had spent years trying to get used to being without her and couldn't forgive the fact that she was still alive?

Sensing the ups and downs of her sensitive mood, Mai changed the topic stiffly with a haha, and returned to Noriko as an investor again.

The elder sister's investment in her own name was beyond Xunli's expectations, and she was filled with unspeakable bitterness, feeling that she was a villain who had directed a conspiracy.

"I didn't expect that she would help us. It's for my sake..." Xun Li indirectly ruined the good reputation that the Songyuan family had built up for generations. Although the Songyuan couple deserved what they deserved, she chose to look at it coldly.Thinking about what they did to him, Xun Li even wanted to applaud.

This is cruel to Dianzi who was left behind, not to mention that she is still kept in the dark, and feels guilty for Xunli's accident.She was the one who hurried away Seijuro who wanted to visit Xunli in the ward, and made him miss the chance to say goodbye.

"Sister?" Mai's calm voice broke Xunli's trance.

"It's nothing, just follow the plan." She pretended to be calm, saying that it would not be harmful for them to accept the gift in front of Mai anyway.

"This is an investment!" Mai emphasized again, "The interest requested by the other party is very low, but we will have to pay it back sooner or later."

"This is Mrs. Atobe's style. She never trades at a loss." Xun Li murmured to herself in a low voice, vowing in her heart that one day she would repay Dianzi's love face to face.

"By the way, it's not convenient for you to come forward even if you don't think about it. My mother and I will go to Japan soon to negotiate, and the store in New York will be handed over to you."

"Don't look down on your sister, I'm a responsible adult."

"You are an adult, have you been responsible for this year..." Mai was silent for a few seconds, "I can only say that you are an out-and-out ostrich."

"Yes, yes, although my sister has failed a bit. I have been bothering you all the time." Thinking carefully, Xunli's mess was all caused by Mai.She really lived and passed.

"What are you talking about? It's too early to say your last words." The person on the other end of the phone joked, "Maybe I should look forward to the reunion of your family in a year's time."

"you--!!"

Mai hung up the phone before Xunli got angry.This made the latter dumbfounded, and he didn't know whether to continue to be sad or look forward optimistically at this moment.

……

Seijuro, who was in the same mixed mood, was far away across the ocean.

This is an ordinary Monday. According to the usual practice, the Diguang Basketball Club will hold a routine "meeting" before the event starts.

At this time, the huge and bright basketball court was silent——

1 minute ago, Nijimura announced the news of the retirement of the third-year members, and...he officially passed on the captaincy to Seijuro.

No one was stunned. Although the incident came a bit suddenly, the members of the first army calmly accepted his decision.In fact, no one in the Ministry is more suitable for this important position than Seijuro.

Seijuro, who has become more and more stable, has been accepting internal affairs since the second grade, and he has long expected such a day.His expression remained the same, he had already been elected as the president of the Student Association, and he had another mission added to his thin shoulders.

Sooner or later, the Teiko basketball team will be in his pocket.

"I leave it to you—I look forward to your results." Hongcun's smiling eyes stayed on every basketball team member as before.And, the juniors that he is most proud of.He has witnessed the growth of the entire team, and it is really hard to let go now.

"Plus, this may be the last time I'm standing in this place."

Everyone stared in astonishment at Hongcun, who was acting a little heartless. This double blow bombed them to pieces like a bolt from the blue.

"Eh!?"

"what happened?"

"Senior Hongcun, do you want to transfer schools?"

Seijuro pursed his lips, and stared at him with scrutinizing eyes without saying a word, with no deep meaning.

"Well~ don't get excited," Hongcun waved his hands helplessly, and answered their pressing questions honestly, "I had to transfer to the United States because of family matters."

"You still have to go abroad! When did you not tell us about this? Hey..." The team members who pretended to be crying cheekily eased the stalemate in an instant, but they all felt sorry for Hongcun's sudden parting.

"Although I can't watch you guys go on... But I don't feel that my departure will cause any loss to the basketball team. Please leave the National League in the future!" He smiled heartily at the members of the first army headed by Seijuro, " I won't forgive you if you fail!"

"Of course!" Qingfeng yelled impatiently, "We are victorious in every battle—"

Hearing "we" from his mouth, Hongcun's smile deepened.

He really blesses them.As far as he was concerned, they would undoubtedly accomplish Teiko—even the most glorious and short-lived miracle in Japanese junior high school basketball.

**

The plan set by Jessica was successfully put into operation, and she and Mai flew to Japan to deal with affairs a few days ago.Xunli, who is on the periphery of the vortex, still lives in New York to live an ordinary and fulfilling life, helping to manage the store, and studying marketing from Monday to Wednesday. In her spare time, she feels desolate in the face of an empty home.

Xunli suddenly remembered that she didn't go to the basketball court to join in the fun during this period, so she happily decided to dedicate the free precious time to the teenagers, harassing them from time to time, and the latter also fully welcome her... bag.

She has always felt that being an aunt-level adult mixed into the circle of teenagers is a bit awkward, but they have fully accepted her—maybe because Xun Li occasionally pointed out their golf skills, in the eyes of the teenagers, she is a master Mysterious woman with brushes. (Devin complained that she must be a hidden world expert)

Having said that, when Xun Li approached the court, he felt something was wrong with the wind today.From a distance, the hustle and bustle that was more lively than usual can be heard, and there are even cursing/cursing mixed in with the booing.She cautiously took a few steps forward, and from this angle, she saw bad high school students in unorthodox attire standing in a row against Vulcan and the others.

Xun Li raised his forehead, judging from this omen, they must have been exposed to provocative incidents that are not uncommon in street courts.

Seeing that the teenagers were gearing up and in a state of excitement, she hesitated whether to call the police to stop this unformed malicious street wounding incident, but instantly dismissed this stupid idea after a few seconds.Attracting the police will only ignite the upper body.

Fortunately, the two parties finally compromised and reached an agreement. The bad boy in the lead yelled something rough, and then left quickly with the rest of the people.

Xun Li heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly ran to Vulcan, "Hey! What's wrong with you?"

Vulcan was shocked, and raised his hands as if to prove his innocence, "We are the ones who are innocent! It's not the first time those guys came to grab the territory!"

"How were they persuaded to leave?" She took a deep breath, feeling that the matter was not simple.

"We're going to play here next week... Whoever wins has the right to use the field here." He didn't raise any inappropriateness.

"Who the hell suggested it!" Xun Li exclaimed, "Tell me, what do you want Alex to do with you?"

Iceroom and Vulcan shrugged their shoulders, and looked at each other with ugly faces.As a former regular team member, Master disliked vicious football fights the most, and always asked the two disciples to stay away from disputes. They could have done it quietly without telling her, but Xun Li caught him right away.

"Actually, I didn't agree with my big self doing this at first." Himuro confessed Vulcan out of embarrassment.

"I, we have to make a decision, besides, we all decided to accept the challenge." He touched his head guiltyly, and tried to change the subject by throwing the ball with the other hand, "Stop talking, kick off! It's almost the final exam, what if I If you hang the lottery again, you will be banned by your parents..."

"Hey, don't change the subject on purpose!"

"Let's talk about tomorrow next year!" Vulcan shouted carelessly, "My motto is "Eat well, play well"! "

... T mouth T

Xun Li was stunned for a moment, feeling dumbfounded for a moment.What a simple-minded guy.

Xunli walked here directly after she came out of school. She forgot to change her sneakers because she was too hasty, so she had to sit on the railing and watch the teenagers chase after each other (...), lazily bathing in the rare warm sunshine in spring.

There are still threeonthree on the court who are not tired of playing. The main players of the two teams are ice room and Vulcan.I don't know when they started to prefer to compete from opposite angles, maybe they were placed in different groups considering that their abilities were more than a bit higher than others.

Vulcan's style of play is too direct, and the rampage seems to use inexhaustible physical strength.But because of this, they were suppressed by the ice room and were unable to exert their full strength. After all, they were golfers who had played since they were young, and they knew each other's game style well.

However recently—

"Excellent!"

Vulcan just broke through the defense line of the ice room, leaped high and dunked the ball into the basket, and at the same time, the partners in the same group burst into applause.

Recently, Xun Li predicted that the unstoppable Vulcan will soon surpass the ice room, and even gradually increase the distance between each other.Super strong ability to stay in the air and jump, as well as strong physical fitness are completely the result of nature plus acquired training - Vulcan is destined to be a basketball player who can shine on the court.

Xun Li silently looked at the ice room with an abnormal expression, and then couldn't bear to look away.Even friends who have known each other for many years will feel inferior or even feel uncomfortable because of the gap between themselves and the other party. What's more, in a sense, Ice Room has been exposed to basketball earlier than Vulcan, and the experience is obviously richer than the latter.

Maybe one day they will really compete on the court, Xunli dare not think about it, they will never be able to play on the street court carefree all their lives.

At the same time, Xunli's phone's email box was already filled with Mai's bombardment emails, and when she turned on the phone, the incoming ringtones kept ringing one after another. She resisted the urge to drop the phone/turned to silent mode with a dark face.

"Arrive safely at Narita Airport, don't forget~"

"My mother hasn't been to Japan for a long time, and today I took her to visit Tokyo."

"At the Imperial Hotel, I'm going to beat the jet lag."

"I saw Miss Dianzi, ah, and the cute little Jingwu... Well, his height has already surpassed me, and he has developed a strange mantra. But he is really a real handsome guy."

……

Mai's text messages are full of showing off, and almost every text message is accompanied by a photo, which makes Xun Li seriously doubt whether she is going on a trip or talking about business.

She seriously considered the idea of ​​blacklisting Mai, and decided to let her go when she saw the selfie photo of Mai dragging Jing Wu with a reluctant face.

"I really grew up a lot..."

There was a sharp and proud aura on the young man's brows, almost as if he had been carved out of the same mold as his father.His raised eyebrows, his tightly pursed lips curved impatiently, and his unrestrained publicity made him act like a high-ranking emperor, and the tear mole under the corner of his right eye added elegance to him.

Xunli chuckled, no wonder Mai complained that Jingwu's personality had changed, and it was completely Narcissus in full narcissism mode.He does have this proud capital.

Three years no see.

Three years have passed since that nightmare.

Xunli often thinks about what Seijuro will look like in three years.He was only in the fifth grade when she left, did he grow a lot taller like Jingwu now?In her mind, she carefully sketched his appearance and figure, slender and straight figure, broad shoulders like his father's, his helpless but gentle smile as always, and...

She opened her eyes suddenly, as if she was under a strong shock, her eyes were full of disbelief.

What came to mind was a blurry face, and the time of parting was so long that she almost couldn't remember Seijuro's appearance.

The author has something to say: I was wrong. OTZ will definitely appear in the next chapter! !This chapter is mainly given to Seijuro, so it is not good to give it to Masashi, otherwise it will look a little messy.

Is it my illusion that I feel the breath of Binghuo CP inexplicably?

The writing is so tangled, and after so long, the Akashi family still couldn't get rid of the knot.If I were in the red team, I don't think I would forgive Ma Ma for her actions.

I have the impression that the third grade of Hongcun gave the captaincy to the red team before retiring, and then went to the United States?Hope I remember correctly.

"Akashi, please become Teiko's pillar!" ← I really want to say this XD
