[Liuhua Tongren] I really want to say I love you loudly

"So...what the hell is going on in your idiot's mind?" Rukawa picked up the basketball from Sakuragi's feet, and Rukawa looked at him, and there seemed to be some playful emotions on his expressionless face.

"Damn it!! Bastard fox!! This genius didn't think about anything!! Come on! 1ON1! Wait a little bit and don't lose me!!"

This is the end of the short conversation, the next is the duel between the two teenagers, the result is not important, the important thing is that the two of them can finally compete in skills, time and time again, watching each other grow , accompanied each other, and played the basketball they loved with their lives and youth together in this court.

This night, Rukawa did not stay at Sakuragi's house as usual.

Captain Miyagi's warning was more or less effective... It's not so much that Miyagi's identity as the captain is working, it's better to say that both Rukawa and Sakuragi want to win the game more than their own desires.

Therefore, if it is to win the game, then what does the brief separation matter?

The next day, it was the trials...

Finally, the summer after one year ushered in this summer IH competition...

Rukawa wants to win.

Sakuragi wants to win.

They want to win along the way...

Then we will go back to Aihe Academy to get back the shame of last year...

That night, both Rukawa and Sakuragi slept very late.

They are thinking the same thing...

The next day, Sakuragi came to the small court near the apartment very early, and met Haruko there.

"Sakuragi-san, are you so early?"

"Of course! How can that sleepy fox who only knows how to sleep be compared to today's genius! Ah! Miss Haruko, how can you..."

"I can't sleep, so I got up here early. Sakuragi-san, my brother will come to watch the game. You, Rukawa-san and everyone should work hard!" the girl said, smiling, and turned the basketball in her hand towards the game. Sakuragi threw it away.

"Gorilla...ah no! Is the former captain of Akagi also coming to the game? Then he will be surprised by the wonderful performance of this genius!! Now we have to practice [-] more shots, Miss Haruko, please rest assured to hand over the game Give it to this genius who calls for victory! Ahahahaha!!"

Looking at the confident Sakuragi, Akagi Haruko smiled and nodded, but in the end she couldn't ask the question in her heart.

Sakuragi-san... are you and Rukawa-san... in love...?

The sun gradually rose from the horizon, and then gradually lengthened the shadows of the two of them. Today was indeed a sunny day, as the weather forecast said.

At the station, all the Shonhoku team members including Shinichi Sakagi arrived on time, but there was only one person missing. This person was Rukawa who had never been late for any training or group activities.

"Coach, there is no time, how about we go first?" Looking at the clock at the station, Miyagi bowed to Coach Anzai.

"Damn it! Why didn't that bastard show up just now!!!" Staring at the direction he came from, Sakuragi roared angrily.

"Hanato, calm down, I've asked Ade and the others to find Rukawa, that guy Rukawa will arrive in time, you can go to the car with us now!" Mitsui comforted Sakuragi's shoulder.

"Sister Sakuragi, get in the car with them first, here, I'll wait." After Mitsui's words continued, Akagi Haruko gave Sakuragi a positive look.

Even though he still wanted to say something, Sakuragi finally only opened his mouth and didn't make a sound.

Bastard fox!What the hell are you playing missing at this time!
