[Black Basket] Winter Cherry Blossoms

Saying goodbye to the leisurely weekend and returning to campus, the major clubs on campus began to get busy for the annual national competition, and the reorganized student union also announced the list of new members, announcing that the new student union would take over all future school activities and club management.

In front of the bulletin board on the second grade floor, the students were not only looking at the results of the first mock exam of the new school year, but also discussing the personnel arrangement of the student union.

"Akui won the first mock test at the beginning of school. Suzuki in class b is still the second child. The school master is different. Even if he runs around eating, drinking and having fun, he can still get the first place."

"Hey, you're talking about someone who is running around, eating, drinking and having fun, that guy spends as much time studying as you do." No one knows Saya better than Kotaro, so as soon as he hears someone bad-mouthing his playmates, he immediately responds. refute.

"What, Ha Shan, you still have the nerve to talk about us, is Aoi your childhood sweetheart or the right girl?"

"Of course it's a childhood sweetheart, you guys, don't think about it." Kotaro replied with a blushing face. In fact, he has been asked this question many times. Some people thought he liked Saya when he was in elementary school. At that time, he did not deny it until The tragedy happened in Sha Ye's house, and she completely kept him in the line of blue-faced confidant.

"Since you and Ah Kui are just ordinary childhood sweethearts, then my friend has a chance. I heard from him that he plans to confess to Ah Kui before the club activities today."

"Are you serious?" Xiaotaro's eyebrows were almost knotted. He couldn't believe that there are still people going to the wall, because in the first grade, there were two people who confessed to Saya, but they all failed. Even now, He also thought it was a joke for someone to confess to Saya.

"It's absolutely true. If you don't believe me, go to the back of the No. [-] Gymnasium and wait before the club activities. Maybe my friend will really succeed."

"If you get rejected then, just don't cry with him."

While Kotaro and his classmates were still arguing about the confession in the afternoon, their conversation happened to be heard by Akashi who walked out of the staff room.Originally, he was only looking for the dean for the matter of the student union, but he didn't expect to hear this before stepping out of the door, but he didn't stay where he was and listened to the conversation, but went back to the first grade through another staircase floors.

"Akashi, you're back. A second-year senior asked me to give you this report, saying it's a budget report for cultural clubs." Akashi returned to his classroom, and the students in the class handed over a copy of the report to you. gave him.

"Thank you." After receiving the report, Akashi began to read it carefully. This is the club budget statistics he asked Saya to do. Unexpectedly, the report has been handed over to him before the deadline in the afternoon. Judging, her work ability is very strong, and delivering tasks early does not mean that she will cut corners in her work. On the contrary, thanks to her acting as the agent manager of the club last year, the statistics of the details are very detailed, which will allow him to assign clubs in the future. There is a good reference on the budget.

However, apart from the affairs of the student union, there are other things that he cares about. Since the last time he was peeped, he asked the housekeeper to help investigate the current situation of the Kawa family. There should be results today. After speaking, he suddenly felt that there was something else about Saya's confession.

While Akashi was thinking about the connection between the two things, his cell phone rang at the right time, so he answered the call.

"Sorry, master, to bother you. The matter you asked me to check last time has been completed. Do you want me to drive you back this afternoon?" Masao Nakamura's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Please run for a while, Masao-san." A strange feeling is slowly growing in Akashi's heart. During the three years of Teiko's study, he has never encountered this kind of problem at all, and now he needs an answer , Determine whether it is a momentary illusion, or gradually agree that something has taken root in my heart, maybe the answer to the mystery will be revealed outside the No. [-] Gymnasium in the afternoon.

******

Compared with the lively major clubs, the Home Economics Department is definitely unpopular. There are only two club activities a week, and this special arrangement also gives Saya a lot of convenience. On non-club days, she can use her spare time to complete the student union work, or go to work and return to the store to help.

Today is no exception. She completed the budget report that Akashi told her ahead of time, and she should be able to go home immediately after school. Unfortunately, when she put the indoor shoes in the cabinet, a small note fell out of it. She was curious. Pick it up and have a look——

"If you need something, I will meet you in the cherry tree outside the No. [-] Gymnasium after school." The name on the note was Kurihara from the basketball club.

Saya frowned in confusion, Kurihara from the basketball club?who's that person?Even if she had worked as a manager's agent in the basketball club before, she only had a small impression of the members in it, and there was never a person named Kurihara in her mind, and he wrote something on the note Please, could it be that the basketball club needs her help?Impossible, if there is a lack of work over there, Supervisor Platinum will find her, and she will never use a small note. Could it be someone playing a prank?

In order to find out, Sha Ye decided to take a trip. She put away her shoes and walked out of the teaching building with a small note, and walked slowly towards the agreed place. Not long after she left, Xiao Taro, who had been hiding somewhere, came to visit her. He got out and followed her secretly, but he didn't take a few steps when someone grabbed his collar and he had to stop.

"Yongji, what are you doing? Let go! I will lose people!"

"Don't blame me, it was Ling Yang who asked me to stop you, saying... what is it, Ling Yang?" Forgot what he wanted to say for a moment, Gen Wugu turned his head to look at Ling Yang.

"Xiao Taro, you will be kicked to death by the horse if you prevent others from falling in love. You should have heard this sentence, go back to training quickly, and don't spoil Saya's good deeds." Ling Yang grabbed Xiao Taro's collar and tugged back.

"Sister Lingyang, this time is different, I have a strong sense of foreboding, this time is definitely not the confession of love you imagined!" Xiaotaro struggled desperately.

"Really?" Ling Yang stopped, with the experience of the movie theater last time, Xiao Taro's words seemed a little credible, but he was still dubious, isn't leaving a small note one of the must-do steps before confessing?Why does Kotaro insist on thinking that there is fraud?

"If you don't believe me, come with me, and you will soon know whether what I say is true."

"Gambling for lunch?" Gen Wugu also came to join in.

"Just keep silent and don't do unnecessary things." Xiaotaro and Lingyang replied in unison.

In this way, the three of them quickly followed. In the cherry forest near No. [-] Sports, they found a dense bush and hid themselves, waiting for the beginning of this "confession". It was clear at a glance whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. .

"Excuse me... are you Kurihara from the basketball club?" Saya came to the appointed place with a small note, and looked at the boy waiting under the cherry tree.

"Yes, you're Oikawa, right? It's the first time we meet. I'm Hiroshi Kurihara from the class next door." Seeing Saya coming to the appointment, a second-year boy named Kurihara happily ran over.

"You wrote on the note that you have something to ask for. Is it because the basketball team is short of staff and needs help, or..."

"Please date me!" Before Saya could ask the reason, what Kurihara said made her stunned, and by the way, Kotaro, who was peeking in the bushes, was severely punched by Lingyang.

Usually, according to the plots in romance novels, movies and comics, the girl who is confessed should blushed and agree to date, or she would bow her head in embarrassment and think about how to answer the other party, but Saya's answer was beyond everyone's expectations , clean and tidy.

"Sorry, I can't promise you."

"Why?" Kurihara asked in surprise, "Do you already have someone you like?"

Sha Ye shook his head, "Because I can see from your eyes that you don't really want to date me, since you don't like me, why did you confess to me?"

"You misunderstood. I really like you. You are beautiful, have good academic performance, and are kind to others. It's too late to like you. How could I...?"

"You can speak words of praise so fluently, I think there should be an expert behind you to guide you, did I guess?" Shaye interrupted him, "Whether that person has a problem with me or not, I still hope She can just let it go and stop using people as toys."

"No, she's not that kind of person, I believe her!" Kurihara hurriedly defended, but before he could speak, he realized that he had been tricked.

"It seems that I guessed it right. Sure enough, someone instructed you to do this. Who is she?"

"No, I can't tell you her name, she said she will be with me as long as I finish this, so please do me this favor, just pretend to say yes, please!"

"I can't do anything about this." Faced with Kurihara's request, Saya still insisted on her decision.

"Why... She said that you were very gentle when you were young, and you would do your best to help anyone who needed help. Why do you become so decisive now? You can pretend to be noble, and you feel happy when you see others suffering?"

"Finally said it? It's really a good thing she did. After so many years, she came back and found you as cannon fodder. Her character is still as bad as before." At first, Saya only thought that she was suspicious, but now after she told Kurihara It is certain that this confession incident was completely arranged by someone.

"Shut up, she's much better than you!"

The consequences of acting impulsively in anger will only lead to tragedy. Saya received a solid slap on the left cheek, and even the corner of his mouth oozes blood. Kotaro, who witnessed this scene not far away, was furious. Wu Gu and Ling Yang worked together to hold him down, not to mention their whereabouts would be exposed, if there was a fight before the preliminaries of the national competition, they might be suspended.

"Whether she is good or bad, you will know the truth sooner or later. Now you are just deceived by her appearance."

"you……"

Seeing that Kurihara's hand was raised again, and Kotaro and the others had nothing to do, a person appeared to resolve the crisis in time. That person was not passerby A passing by, nor the teacher patrolling the campus, but the basketball manager Tatsuya Higuchi.

"Hey, Kurihara, what are you doing? Stop it! I said why the Second Army is short of one person and didn't come to practice. You guys are hiding here and slacking off. What do you want to do to Aoi?" Higuchi stood in front of Saya, Kurihara was not allowed to come any closer.

"Higuchi, this is between me and her, go away!"

"The regional competition is about to start. What you do will only add trouble to the basketball department. If the minister finds out, aren't you afraid that you will be demoted to the third army?"

"Why does that first-year brat care about me?" Kurihara, who lost his mind, began to speak indiscriminately. The so-called misfortune comes from the mouth. half dead.

"Senior Kurihara, if you have an opinion, you can bring it up to me directly, instead of abusing the name of the basketball club to resolve personal grievances." Akashi walked into Sakurabayashi, he glanced at the wound on Saya's face, and then his eyes fell on Kurihara body, and continued: "The association prohibits all acts of violence. Now that you commit a crime knowingly, I think you should be mentally prepared to wait for punishment."

"I... I was just impulsive... to..."

"Sister Oikawa, go and take care of the wound on your face first. I will give you an explanation about today's matter in a few days." Akashi felt that what Saya needs now is not healing or comfort from others, but a quiet space To calm down, for this reason, he helped her find a reasonable excuse to get her out of this place as soon as possible.

"Thank you……"

Saya thanked softly and left Sakuraba in a hurry, but Kurihara, who was left alone, received Akashi's cold eyes shortly after she left. The cold eyes seemed to freeze him in place, unable to move, and felt that he was The heart is also affected, and the beating speed is constantly slowing down.

"Senior Kurihara, I will give you a piece of advice. If you underestimate the influence of senior sister in the school, you will have a very painful life. If you don't believe me, you can experience it yourself. And your little friend who likes to play pranks, please bring a Tell her."

"You... what do you want me to say..." Sitting on the ground paralyzed by Akashi's aura, Kurihara only saw Akashi approaching him, and knelt down to whisper a word in his ear. It turned blue and then turned white, and the whole person was frightened into a puppet.

"Higuchi, take him to the infirmary. When you come back, revise the list of the three armed forces. The newcomers will have new partners tomorrow." The training has been finished, and Akashi has no interest in staying where he is, so he asked the club manager to handle the follow-up , and he plans to return to the gym to continue training.

"I see, Minister."

After receiving the order, Higuchi quickly dragged Kurihara away. At this time, Akashi looked at the bushes not far away before leaving, and said in a deep voice: "How long are you going to stay there? The practice has already started. If you are lazy, be careful to strengthen the practice." double."

"Xiao Zheng, you already knew where we were hiding?" Ling Yang patted the leaves on her body, dragged Xiao Taro out of the bushes.

"Next time you want to hide, please find a more hidden place. Your position can only be regarded as barely passing."

"It's a wonderful feeling to be spat by Akashi, it's a pity that my lunch is gone." Netaketani was still mourning his lunch.

"Yongkichi, don't worry about eating too much, I'm really curious what Akashi said to Kurihara, he was so scared." Kotaro asked curiously.

"Yeah, Xiao Zheng, what did you say to that guy?"

"I just told him that no matter how beautiful flowers are, they are nothing but rubbish when they are crushed." Of course, these are not the original words spoken by Akashi, but he changed the original words into another statement.

"Sounds a little scary."

"I think Xiaozheng will become even scarier if he doesn't go back to practice."

"Akashi, let's go back right away, don't be angry, don't be angry!" Reminded by Ling Yang, Kotaro who came back to his senses hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the gymnasium.

"That's right, I'm going back now, Ling Yang, let's go!"
