[Kuroko's Basketball] The First Promise

From now on, this miracle will continue forever in his hands.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Akashi is helping Kuroko correct When passing someone, it is obvious that the mental state of the person in front of him is completely different from before. Whether it is the posture of holding the ball or the change of eyes, it is a significant change.

Those azure blue eyes constantly revealed a strong desire to fight, and there was a little keen light in the pupils.

"Pay attention to one hand and one foot, and dribble on the same side. Yes, then cross the same leg and continue to dribble. This is the time difference for the opponent to react."

Akashi supported Kuroko's right arm, kicked Kuroko's foot to signal him to straighten his toes, and began to lead him to adapt to the new surmounting method step by step.Kuroko listened attentively, and when Akashi intercepted the ball from him, he also felt that Kuroko's strength in controlling the ball was stronger than ever.

What happened?

Akashi raised his eyebrows slightly. When Kuroko spread his arms to intercept, he turned back to defend horizontally, with the index finger and middle finger holding the ball upwards, his wrist turned inward, and he hit the ball at an oblique angle, directly letting the basketball pass through Kuroko's crotch. However, Kuroko squinted his eyes, and his sharp eyes seemed to have seen Akashi's movement. He stepped backwards, took a step with his left leg to intercept Akashi's running direction, and then turned around again, taking advantage of Akashi being blocked After that, the speed dropped slightly, and he grabbed the bounced basketball into his hand with a sweep of his hands.

Cursing the corner of his lower lip, Akashi's shoulder moved down slightly. When Kuroko turned his head to prepare for a reverse breakthrough, he and Akashi looked at each other for half a second. In an instant, Kuroko felt his body's balance suddenly deteriorated, and his right leg subconsciously moved to the right. After rubbing for a while, taking advantage of Kuroko's tilt and unable to maintain his balance, Akashi put his five fingers together and cut towards the ball in Heizi's hand.

Knowing that he couldn't keep the ball, Kuroko pursed his lips, and at the same time his body immediately fell to the ground, he turned his wrist outwards, directly facing Akashi's cross-cutting motion and changed the path of the ball, causing the spinning basketball to form a ball with Akashi's palm. Reverse friction.

In the next second, the ball was not firmly controlled by Akashi's hand, but flew out in the opposite direction of the two of them.

Akashi didn't look at the flying basketball anymore, he took half a step forward, and with a hook, he caught the person who was about to fall to the ground into his arms.Due to inertia, Kuroko couldn't stabilize his body quickly, and after being hugged by Akashi, he slowly slid and sat on the ground.

After the basketball hit the ground, it bounced a few times and then stopped at the basket.

Akashi squatted down, raised his hand to wipe the sweat off Kuroko's cheeks, and slowly rubbed his thumb against Kuroko's excellent skin. After looking at him for a while, Akashi looked away at the basketball on the ground, and said for a while: "Yes Great progress. What happened?"

It was rare to hear such a clear compliment from Akashi, and Kuroko suddenly felt happy.He was pulled by Akashi to stand up, wiped the sweat on his chin with his wristband, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I just can't wait for tomorrow's game."

Akashi nodded, and went to the rest area to drink water, and Kuroko followed immediately. Seeing Akashi's movement of twisting the water bottle, Kuroko said softly, "Akashi-kun, I want to resume training with everyone from next time."

Akashi glanced at Kuroko:

"There is no problem with the eyes? Isn't it healed yet?"

"But it's no longer a problem playing with everyone."

Heizi smiled:

"I want to hurry up... and train with everyone. If the eye hurts, I will be measured."

Akashi didn't speak any more, and took two sips of water as a tacit consent.

Tomorrow's game, Kuroko has already learned about it from the video Akashi gave, and it is a team with extremely strong defensive capabilities.Thinking carefully about the starting lineup of Dongda University, only Murasakihara can be regarded as a typical defensive player. He also pondered over and over again what kind of strategy Akashi called "civil strife".

——It's not to cause internal strife, but to shake the morale of the army.

It has been a long time since I have been so excited, so excited that I can't sleep at night.

Heizi was lying on the bed, in total darkness, he stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, not feeling sleepy at all.

He still remembers when he was in Seirin, he would be excited the night before every game, and the excitement would last until the game.His legs were trembling, and he raised his hand and made a fist in the darkness.

Very powerful.

Now he is much stronger than before, both physically and mentally.

As well as the understanding of his teammates and the support of the miracles, he feels that he has never been so confident-no matter what is ahead, they will be fine.

I don't know how long it has been.

Heizi closed his eyes and smiled slightly.

He clenched his fists in the air, imagining that on the other side, he was fist bumping against his light.

The air seemed to be getting warmer.

"Little Heizi, haven't you slept yet?"

Kise's confused voice came over, and Heizi put down his hands, sat up a little, and said softly, "Yes. Why did Mr. Huangse wake up?"

Kise fumbled and turned on the bedside lamp.Under the warm orange light, Huang Lai looked at Heizi's bright blue eyes, smiled for a while, and the drowsiness dissipated a lot: "What's the matter, little Heizi, are you too excited?"

Heizi sat up, leaned against the head of the bed, looked at Kise and smiled:

"Yes, right now... my hands are already shaking a little."

In the first three games of the knockout round, because of the big gap in strength, and Akashi wanted him to conserve his energy, Kuroko didn't play all the time, which was about to suffocate him.

He wanted so much to run, be on the field, and be with everyone.

"Yeah... I'm also very happy to think that Xiao Heizi will also be starting tomorrow."

Kise folded his hands in his mind, looked at the ceiling, and raised his lips:

"Little Heizi, remember to pass the ball to me more~"

"must."

Heizi looked down at his right hand, then lifted it up and rubbed his right eye.

"Little Heizi, did you go to see Vulcan yesterday?"

Heizi was slightly surprised by Huang Lai's sudden question, but soon he recovered that warm expression, rubbed his eyes again, and Heizi said softly, "Yes."

"Will Vulcan go to tomorrow's game?"

"Probably so, is Kise-kun unhappy?"

"Well...um."

Huang Lai responded vaguely, scratching his hair, then smiled lightly, his tone a bit chilly: "Although it looks like Xiao Heizi... I must have talked to him. But I still can't let it go so easily. Forgive him for what he did."

Heizi shook his head and said softly:

"I said it a long time ago... Vulcan-kun did nothing wrong. Regardless of his future plans or the situation at the time, it was the right choice to leave Japan and play in the United States."

"Little Heizi, you are protecting him too much."

"Well, is that so?"

Heizi laughed lightly, he looked up at Kise, and said:

"I think, I like everyone more now."

Kise looked at Heizi with gentle eyes.He always felt that Heizi had changed a lot, but it looked like he hadn't changed.The former sunspot was also so gentle, but he rarely showed it.After the university reunion, he felt that Heizi's gentleness had gradually revealed, which was very obvious and easy to feel.

After a while, Huang Lai suddenly climbed out of the bed under the blanket, and climbed onto the bed under Heizi's blank sight.Wrapped in the quilt and rubbing against Heizi, Huang Lai laughed a few times: "It's too cold to sleep alone~ I want to sleep with Xiao Heizi~"

"There are spare quilts in the closet, Kise-kun can cover two."

"No~ That's too hot, the temperature is just right if you're next to Xiao Heizi~"

"..."

Heizi pushed him twice, but Kise got closer, Heizi had no choice but to worry that Kise was really cold, so he spread his quilt around Kise's exposed shoulders, Heizi Keep him warm.

As if he didn't expect such an intimate act from Heizi, Kise was a little flattered, he looked at Heizi, and laughed eagerly in the next second: "My hands are cold too, what should I do, little Heizi~"

Why didn't Heizi know that Huang Lai was playing tricks, but he still didn't say anything, and reached out to shake Huang Lai's hand.Indeed, the temperature in Kise's hand was lower than his, and Heizi held his hand tightly to transfer the temperature in his palm to it.

With a bright smile on his face, Kise yawned against Heizi's body, feeling the warmth of Heizi's palm, his heart was warm.

"I like Little Heizi."

Kise suddenly said such a sentence.

Heizi was slightly taken aback, he lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while, then smiled and said:

"I like Kise-kun too."

"What kind of liking did Xiao Heizi say?"

"Kise-kun understands and likes it."

Huang Lai's eyes suddenly felt a little sore, and he said after a long while:

"Little Heizi...does he also like everyone this way?"

"Yes."

Heizi smiled slightly, and replied gently:

"—If there is no one...it's not allowed."

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This competition is huge, and the venue is Tokyo Ariake Gymnasium, which accommodates A large stadium with thousands of spectators.Heizi closed the door of the locker room, and the commotion of the crowd outside could be heard.Starting from this game, the remaining twelve universities after the knockout round will enter the round robin stage.

Putting on the pair of wristbands that Akashi had lent him, Kuroko moved his wrist joints.He took off his shirt and took the snow-white jersey hanging on the hanger.

A thin jersey is heavy in the hand.Heizi looked at the number on it, bowed his head and kissed it for a while.

"Ah... good morning."

The door of the dressing room was pushed open, and Aomine walked in while rubbing his head.He closed the door, and Heizi looked over in surprise: "...Mr. Qingfeng came so early today."

He read it right, Qingfeng was the second to arrive today...

"Huh? Well, because I'm not very sleepy."

Qingfeng responded, sat down on the chair and began to change clothes.Heizi also put on his jacket, walked to Qingfeng, and handed the latter the water out of habit.Qingfeng took it and took two sips, then smiled, clenched his fist and stretched out his right hand.

Heizi looked at the outstretched hand, couldn't help laughing, he also raised his hand, and lightly touched Qingfeng with a fist, the knuckles touched, Heizi kept raising his hand and didn't let it go.

"Let's blow them up in the first quarter."

"Well, to be honest, my hands are shaking with excitement."

"Haha, this is Ah Zhe!"

The others also arrived one after another, as usual, Kise started bickering with Aomine as soon as he came in.Midorima changed her clothes and began to wipe the lucky mug she brought.Murasakihara sat cross-legged on a chair and ate snacks, while Akashi on the opposite side explained the main points of the first quarter to him with a tactical map.

After Heizi changed his clothes, he just looked at the small changing room.He felt that this small place carried too many things.Just listening to everyone's voices, his whole body seemed to be on fire, and every cell seemed to be ready to move.

He squeezed the corner of the cabinet tightly, his finger bones turned slightly white.

"Okay, get ready to play."

Kuroko didn't know how long he had been waiting for Akashi's words, he walked out of the house with his legs trembling with excitement.Before going out, Huang Lai suddenly turned back to Heizi, then raised his fist.Heizi looked at him in surprise, smiled for a while, and raised his hand to fist bump with him.Seeing this, Murasakihara next to him also leaned over to fist bump Kuroko, Midorima looked at it, pushed down his glasses and walked out.

Speaking of which, he hasn't touched fists with Aomine's other team members yet.

Heizi looked down at his clenched fist that was trembling slightly, and the next second Qingfeng had already raised his hand to ruffle his hair.

"Come on, Azhe."

Heizi raised his head and smiled towards his own light, and followed him out.When he reached the door, he deliberately stopped and looked at Akashi who was leaning against the door frame.The latter bent down slightly, gently supported his back and patted him, then said with a low smile, "Go, Tetsuya."

A great courage infected him like this.Heizi took a deep breath and walked out of the locker room.When walking down the stairs, deafening applause erupted from the auditorium on both sides. He knew that this was the applause of glory.

Cheers, shouts, roars, every sound, every passion is like a pair of invisible hands pushing him into the arena.

Far away on the opposite side, he saw a red banner with words of encouragement and encouragement. Heizi was very familiar with the crooked handwriting.

He knew that Vulcan was coming, and he was sitting on the opposite side in the auditorium. As a spectator, he witnessed his growth with his own eyes.

He also wants to use this game to tell him that he is good, really good!

Heizi felt the surging wind, as if he could hug him by reaching out.

The same wind as many years ago.

Standing at the entrance leading to the stadium, looking at the extremely familiar figures around him, Heizi recalled things from a long time ago——

When parting, he made a promise with everyone.

I hope that one day, I can stand on the same court with you again and play their proud basketball.

The wind at the entrance suddenly picked up, messing up Heizi's hair.Hearing the referee's signal to enter the field, he smiled slightly, and walked side by side with everyone around him, step by step towards the pitch that was gradually brightening from darkness.

NO.15's jersey was blown by the wind, he looked up, enjoying every breath on the field.

Please allow me to split this gradually frozen time and let the miraculous moment be staged again.

My glory, my light, the generation I have witnessed.

The persistence of unwillingness to let go comes from the original agreement.

And the original agreement will now be fulfilled in this arena with a beating heart, boiling blood, and a brilliant victory!

This is the young battlefield, and it will also be the pinnacle that will be remembered forever.

Heizi smiled. He lowered his head and kissed the back of his fingers, then clenched his fist and slowly raised it towards the opposite auditorium.

He still owes Vulcan a final fist bump, distant and profound.

Then, he will wear a glorious jersey, let his dreams and youth walk together in this generation of people's attention.

He lives in the miracle of the past.

And from now on, this miracle will continue forever in his hands.

-END-

postscript:

Starting from writing in June to stopping writing in November gave me a deeper understanding of the work Black Basket.

In my opinion, the fetters of the Generation of Miracles do not require too many earth-shattering ups and downs, nor do they need any vigorous experiences. Plain warmth is more suitable to describe them.The understanding of each other, the perfect light and shadow, are the embodiment of fetters.

It's not that this warm bond is like plain boiled water, but the relationship between the Miracle Generations is like calm honey water, which won't be greasy or spicy.And the relationship between Huoshen and Heizi is more like mint candy. It will be spicy when you hold it tightly, and you will feel cold when it passes. Positive tastes can have negative effects if the balance is broken or the string is not mastered.

In the eyes of some people, Heizi's relief towards Vulcan may seem too hasty, or it may be a bit hasty, but in fact, Heizi has already experienced this feeling of relief a long time ago.

Because there is someone he wants to protect more behind him, he must let go of the shackles of the past.The most common thing in youth is to forgive and let go.

Time can dilute misunderstandings, and a deeper bond can allow two people to settle their suspicions. It is unknown who is the bond with whom.

Just like what Matthews said, when a foot crushes a violet, it leaves its scent on that heel, that is forgiveness.

Who is forgiving whom is also unknown.

And in my opinion, even if he has left before, there will always be a quiet corner in Heizi's heart for the light of the past and future return.When the light in this corner becomes more and more dazzling, the small corner becomes a world.

And the moment of his return came at the same second when his heart was filled.

Vulcan helped Heizi prove his own basketball, which is the most respectable place.

The Generation of Miracles, on the other hand, used everything they had to make Heizi himself from the very beginning.

——Even if they parted ways later.

——and then they all come to the same goal.
