[He often sighs that reality is so cruel~ When you use this kind of exclamation sentence, you don’t realize that the real cruelty of reality lies in the fact that you don’t even have the idea of ​​​​giving you a sigh, and directly bury you with despair and sadness. 】

On the matter of laziness, Oreki Crane has always defended herself positively. For example, she would say that she mainly finds it troublesome, or that she doesn't want to think too much, but in general...not just Lazy.

However, when she continued to ask her other questions, the girl had a depth that didn't suit her style.

【Hey, what do you hate the most? 】

[Well...reality and truth. 】

******

The night before the qualifiers for the National High School Competition, Tetsuro Kuroyu suddenly brought up something with Oreki Tsuru.

"Hey, Oreki, come and watch my match tomorrow."

tomorrow?

Oreki Crane tilted his head, tomorrow is also the qualifier for the National High School Competition.

Oreki Crane frowned and puffed his cheeks, Kurobi could tell she was hesitating, or thinking of a reason to refuse, the boy sighed and said helplessly:

"If you can't, just tell me, I won't beat you up."

"I'm afraid I'll drink seaweed soup that night."

Blue veins immediately popped up on Heiwei Tielang's forehead, and the boy gritted his teeth and said with a sinister smile:

"Am I that superficial?!"

"No, no, I'm narrow-minded!"

Oremu Crane immediately changed his words, the blinking eyes of Empress Cang looked like a frightened cat, Oremu Crane thought for a while with a bitter face, and then said:

"Tomorrow is the qualifier for the National High School Competition. I have made an appointment with someone to watch him compete."

Oreki Crane belonged to the basketball club, and Kuowei Tetsuro propped his chin with an expression of sudden realization: "Ah, the basketball club is also tomorrow?" It's pretty far from their gym.

"That's right, is volleyball also a high school competition?"

Oreki Crane is not very interested in sports, and he didn't know about the national high school competition until he was in the basketball club, and he didn't know anything about other volleyball and baseball. Tetsuro Kurobi grinned and started to popularize science for the girl:

"No, it's a little different. To be precise, it's the men's volleyball competition at the National High School Comprehensive Sports Competition. Well, the National High School Comprehensive Sports Conference Summer Conference is the ih competition. For all high schools, it's the National Middle School Students Basketball Conference. Tomorrow is the regional competition. Let's play the qualifiers."

I can't understand it, but it sounds great.

"Then where are you playing?"

"Hey? Are you coming? It's far away."

"Then I won't come."

Heiwei Tielang couldn't help but chuckle at Oreki Crane's resolute words, it really has her style.

******

The next day I arrived at the arena early, but there were already many people, and many schools had already arrived. Oreki Crane heard shouts from the gymnasium outside, and the girl couldn't help sighing:

"Ah, youth~~"

"Snapped!"

Hongcun Xiuzao quickly slapped the girl on the back of the head, and slapped back the exclamation sentence of Youyou who was under her. The boy squinted at the girl and said in a cold voice:

"shut up,"

"It hurts, Xiu." Oreki Crane held his head and muttered softly.

"It's okay to hurt, just remember it for me."

"Tsk."

Momoi is already used to the relationship between Oreki Tsuru and Nijimura Shuzo. Although it is a little surprising that the calm and calm Captain Nijimura still has such a side, but thinking of Nijimura beating Huizaki, it is acceptable. , I have to say that the relationship between Oreki-senpai and Captain Hongcun is very good, at least the way they fight and fight like this is more like childhood sweethearts.

"Senior Hong Village."

Hongcun, who was walking in the front, was suddenly stopped by Qingfeng. Hongcun turned his head to look at Qingfeng. With Qingfeng's hesitant expression and twinkling eyes, Hongcun immediately knew what Qingfeng wanted to say, but Hongcun didn't say it himself. Instead, he waited for Aomine to say it himself. Akashi, who was standing next to Hongcun, glanced coldly at Aomine and Hongcun, and finally fell on Oreki Crane. The girl restrained her expression and looked away. If there is a faint smile.

"Takeshita, is Senior Takeshita here today?"

Sure enough, although Aomine has a rough nerve, he is also a sensitive boy to a certain extent. He still cares about Senior Takeshita now that he was able to play, but Senior Takeshita missed the Grand Final because he saved him.

"..."

Hongcun looked at Qingfeng silently for a while, it was completely different from the energetic appearance on the court, at this moment Qingfeng was shaking, this is not allowed, Hongcun clicked his lips impatiently, he lowered his voice and said in a cold voice :

"It's annoying, Qingfeng, why do you think you are the starter?"

"Hey?"

"It's your own ability. Do you think that your position was given to you by Senior Takeshita? Don't be naive. The starting position of the basketball team is not a fun thing to be handed over. It depends on strength. All in basketball People in the department, you are teammates, you are seniors, but you are also competitors, Aomine, when you became the starting member, it means that you have surpassed Takeshita-senpai, what are you worried about? To put it bluntly, even if Takeshita-senpai is not injured, and you are still the starter, do you understand?"

Hong Cunxiu's words were very indifferent, but this is not pure indifference, but the reality, what he said is the truth, to eliminate Qingfeng's scruples and worries, the truth that he has to admit, this is what he must do as the captain things, support teammates.

"……I see."

Aomine seemed to accept it, and felt a little more relaxed. Seeing this, Midorima pushed his glasses and said to Aomine:

"Qingfeng, did you bring Kobe boy with you today? It is also your lucky item today."

"I'm a fart!"

"Ah, Kobe boy, I have it~"

Momoi took out the Kobe boy pendant from his pocket, and Momoi had already hung it on his phone. The cute and wobbly look was very interesting. Standing behind, Atsushi Murasakihara noticed the pendant on Momoi's phone, and tilted his head , the voice was sweet and greasy, and said lazily:

"Hey... this pendant looks a bit like Little Green Room~"

Aomine gave Ziyuan a thumbs up, sure enough he was not alone!

"What are you talking about! Murasakihara!!"

Midorima suddenly turned back and growled at Murasakihara. Murasakihara gnawed on the delicious stick in his hand, with food still stuffed in his mouth. He closed his eyelids and repeated nonchalantly:

"It's very similar to Little Green Room."

"Where does it look like!"

"Glasses."

Midorima took a deep breath: "Only the glasses look like you and you still say I look like you!?"

"Xiaoluma, you are not the glasses, you are the body~~"

Ziyuan's sweet, greasy, lazy and drawn-out tone carried a strong feeling of being beaten, but according to the comparison of force value, Midorima could only be angry with himself:

"Murasara, you bastard..."

No, take a deep breath...

"Okay, it will start in one hour, let's go in first."

Hongcun suddenly felt very tired. This group of first-year geniuses is still a group of kids after all, brats.

"Ah, Xiu, you go in first, I'll take another turn."

"...Don't run around."

In fact, Hongcun Xiuzhuo wanted to say, don't make trouble.

******

Passing through the crowd, the girl's slender body looked petite and slender. The crowd who came and went had already discussed the most popular school for this qualifier, and Teiko was the name that Oreki Tsuru heard the most, and she didn't wear Teiko today. The school uniform, but a simple sweater, Oregi Crane's beautiful little face is very attractive, Oreki Crane is not walking around aimlessly, on the contrary, after noticing a certain figure, he followed that figure And came to the corner on the side of the gymnasium.

"Follow me all the way here, you wouldn't say you were just passing by, Oreki."

With a gentle voice and soft laughter, the boy with a plaster cast on his right hand looked at the girl in front of him tenderly. I have to say that Oreki Crane has a different beauty than their manager. It is a delicate, lazy and quiet temperament. It will give people the feeling of a puppet. Of course, the real origi crane may not be as ethereal and rigid as a puppet.

"Following Senior Takeshita, of course because I have something to say."

Oreki Crane put his hands in the pockets of his sweater, and his lazy tone was hard to ignore seriousness. Takeshita Hiiragi raised his eyebrows and curled his mouth and asked amusedly:

"Finally going to respond to my confession?"

"Didn't I refuse?"

Oreki Crane's blunt words made Takeshita Hiiragi couldn't help but twitch, and the girl even asked innocently with a puzzled and confused expression.

"Then what are you going to tell me?"

Takeshita Hiiragi sighed, and followed him to the corner of the gymnasium, he couldn't guess the purpose of Oregi Crane.

Oreki Crane looked at Takeshita Hiiragi blankly, his green eyes were different from usual indifference and earnestness, the girl opened her mouth, and first exhaled:

"To be honest, I want to pretend that I don't know anything, but I don't like it."

"what?"

Takeshita Hiiragi really didn't understand what Oregi Crane meant, the girl curled her mouth, her face still cold:

"Obviously the perpetrator, but the expression of the victim."

"!!"

Takeshita Hiiragi was stunned, his surprised expression flashed past, and then he showed a consistent smile, his gentle voice remained unchanged:

"I don't understand what you mean, Oreki."

"What I mean is that Qingfeng doesn't need to feel guilty about the fact that you were injured while saving him. On the contrary, Qingfeng is the victim, and you are the one who wants Qingfeng to be injured."

Oreki Crane said words that were contrary to the facts that everyone saw. To others, the girl's words were inexplicable, but Takeshita Hiiragi's gentle smile at this moment seemed strange. If... If and Oroki What Muzuru said was irrelevant, Takeshita Hiiragi should really be confused and puzzled to justify.

"Oh? Why do you say that, why did I hurt Aomine?"

There was no smile in Takeshita Hiiragi's smile, but there was a meaningful smile in his indifferent smile, and he continued to ask indifferently:

"Also, where is Qingfeng injured?"

"In the bathroom, it should be said that Aomine was almost injured."

Oreki Crane took out something from his pocket, it was something wrapped in a handkerchief, the girl carefully unwrapped the wrapped handkerchief, exposed the wrapped thing and spread it on the palm of her hand:

"This is the sodium I found in the water pipe in the bathroom. If the sodium meets water, it will explode, but if it is handled properly, it will only produce sparks and will not cause harm. This kind of precision processing method... won the National Takeshita-senpai, who won the junior high school chemistry prize, can easily do it."

The tone of Oregi Crane’s plain narration did not fluctuate, but his tone seemed to have seen everything Takeshita Hiiragi did at the scene. When Oregi Crane said it, his eyes flashed, if it hadn’t been for the violent sparks that Aomine said If she hadn't, she wouldn't have thought of this level either.

"what……"

Takeshita Hiiragi sighed with a wry smile, without even arguing, he looked at Oreki Crane with gentle eyes, the boy looked at his arm tied with plaster, and asked softly with a smile:

"It's a sure hit. I'm a little surprised that you, a second-year student, know this reaction. However, do you also know my motive for wanting to hurt Qingfeng?"

Takeshita Hiiragi's words meant that he admitted what he had done, the young man asked frankly and straightforwardly, and a touch of irony appeared on Oreki Crane's indifferent expression with lowered eyes:

"Because of...jealousy, isn't it?"

"Yes, it's such a simple and superficial thought, because of jealousy."

Takeshita Hiiragi turned his head and looked at the wall on one side. He touched the wall of the gymnasium. On the other side of the wall, there were people cheering, people working hard for the game, cheers, and shouts. However, he did not Not one of those people.

"Genius...it's really annoying."

Speaking hateful words, but Takeshita Hiiragi's tone is bitter and sad, which is touching. This is the bitterness and helplessness of an ordinary person, which is the helplessness of most ordinary people.

"I know."

The girl answered softly, Takeshita Hiiragi looked at the Oreki Crane, and curled the corner of her mouth: "Do you understand..."

How do you understand?

Takeshita Hiiragi said sincerely.

Oregi Crane seemed to see through Takeshita Hiiragi's true thoughts. The girl's green eyes were amazingly shining, as if she could see through people. She was calm, deep and intimidating. Hiiragi really felt a sense of irony:

"Of course I understand that no matter how hard you try, you can't surpass the so-called talent. Faced with a talent that is far beyond yourself and is too dazzling to look directly at, even if you stubbornly refuse to admit defeat and tell yourself that hard work can make up for talent, in fact, you have accepted it in your heart." In fact, the so-called talent means that no matter how hard you work, it seems to them that it is just like playing. It is very similar to Qingfeng, isn't it? For Qingfeng, shooting is as simple as eating and drinking. How did you manage to score goals? Are all the hard work of seniors like fools? At this time, even jealousy feels stupid. This gap in strength is too realistic, and there is no other way but to accept it.”

this is the truth.

A genius is 1% talent plus 99% perspiration.

They all use this sentence to deceive themselves, the focus is on the second half of the sentence.

But that 1% of talent is the most important, even more important than the 99% of sweat.

There is nothing wrong with Aomine Daiki, it's just that there is a gap in strength between ordinary people and talented people, which is a distance that can never be caught up.

It's just... Can Aomine be able to shoulder the burden of such a genius?

"It hits the nail on the head, Oreki, as expected of the girl I like."

Takeshita Hiiragi tidied up his mood and smiled at Oreki Crane, who frowned a bit puzzled:

"Please don't tease me. Senior Takeshita confessed to me only because I recorded Aomine's data. Every time you talk to me, your eyes are fixed on Aomine's data. I once suspected that you have a good impression of Aomine, senior."

"..."

Takeshita Hiiragi twitched the corners of his mouth: "I care a little about Aomine, but I haven't reached that level. I wouldn't like Aomine in terms of appearance... Wait, something's wrong! It's true that I'm confessing to you I have a crush on you! Take it a little more seriously, Oreki!"

"don't want……"

The girl squinted her eyes, and looked away from Takeshita Hiiragi.

Don't look away! !

"Ha...then what do you want me to do? Turn yourself in to Qingfeng? I want to hurt him selfishly."

Takeshita Hiiragi said with a smile: "As long as you say it, I will do it."

Can't tell whether the boy's smile is a joke or a joke.

Oreki Crane shook his head, the girl seemed to have heard the cheers in the arena, and... Teiko's cheers. After a while, the match will start, and Oreki Crane showed his usual lazy look again, The girl continued to wrap the sodium in her hand with a handkerchief, and then walked to the trash can and threw the handkerchief into it. Takeshita Hiiragi was really puzzled by Oregi Crane's actions:

"you……"

"I just hope that Senior Takeshita can go to the auditorium and cheer for them loudly during the Teiko game."

This is the most direct way and the most straightforward words.

"Aren't you going to tell me?"

"If you really want to say it, senior, you attempted to intimidate me, you didn't actually hurt Qingfeng, on the contrary... I withdraw my preface, although you had the idea of ​​hurting Qingfeng, but you did save Qingfeng... before In that iron frame, you saved Qingfeng, you were actually atoning for your sins, and you even thought, if you get hurt, you don’t have to worry about it.”

If you don't admit that your third grade starting position is taken away by the first grade, if you don't admit that your hard work is still not as good as Qingfeng's talent, this is very common jealousy and unwillingness, maybe other third grade seniors and second graders They all have this kind of thinking more or less, but the reality is cruel. In this year's first grade, there are five geniuses, and there are five geniuses who are rarely seen in ten years.

There is no place for ordinary people.

"Do you think my thoughts are ugly?"

Jealousy can feel scary.

"Well...it's normal."

Oregi Crane felt that the time was almost up, so he turned around and left. Takeshita Hiiragi found out that the girl Oreki Crane was really not interested in him. The girl stopped after taking two steps. She turned her back to Takeshita Hiiragi, as if Wanting to say something, her slender body shook, and she said lazily:

"Ah, by the way, although Takeshita-senpai can't compare to Aomine in basketball no matter how hard you work, it's not shameful to be a hard-working person. However, in my opinion... Takeshita-senpai, your talent may not be in basketball. For example, Isn't Takeshita-senpai very talented in chemistry?"

"..."

Takeshita Hiiragi couldn't help laughing out loud:

"Does it mean that everyone has their own talents in different fields... What a lame consolation, and it finally comforted me once, Oreki."

This girl may look a little lazy and doesn't care about anything, but maybe...

She pays more attention to the crowd than anyone else, and is more sensitive and careful than anyone else.

"..."

The figure of the red-haired boy was hidden in the dark, and after Oreki Crane left, he also turned and left, with a faint smile on his cold face, but unexpectedly, it seemed that the boy was in a good mood.

"You guy, where did you go? You won't get lost."

Hongcun Xiuzou waited for a long time for the belated figure of Zhemu Crane. As soon as the girl came to Hongcun Xiuzoo, he pinched Zhemu Crane's face fiercely and softly. It looks pretty good.

"Ah... I lost my way on the journey of life..."

"You've read too many comics."

Hongcun Xiu said with gritted teeth.

"Ah, it's Takeshita-senpai."

I don’t know who yelled, and everyone’s eyes shifted to Takeshita Hiiragi who was walking slowly. Last year, Teiko’s starting position was all taken away by the first grade this year. This incident is also widely rumored in other schools. It is said that this year Teiguang's first-year lineup can be described as unprecedentedly strong, but this kind of thing can only be felt in the real game, and the school that Takeshita Hiiragi played against last year, but they know the true strength of Takeshita Hiiragi, so powerful The guy actually lost to a first-year...

"Yo, everyone~"

Takeshita Hiiragi walked up to Hongcun's side, patted Hongcun's shoulder and smiled brilliantly:

"Next, I have to work hard on you, captain, haha."

"What are you talking about? When Senior Takeshita was around, I didn't feel relaxed."

Xiuzo Hongcun twitched the corners of his mouth. The expression of helplessness made Takeshita Hiiragi nostalgic. He looked at the starting lineup of the first grade, and finally met Aomine's gaze. Aomine was stunned for a moment, then The pair of clear eyes, with only basketball in his eyes, made Takeshita Hiiragi feel that he seemed to be able to let go:

"Come on, let's win the championship!"

"Yes!!"

Everyone's imposing shout is the inevitable victory.

"By the way... I'm the captain..."

Hong Cun Xiu raised his eyelids and was a little puzzled.

'But never mind...'

The boy glanced at the corner of his mouth, as long as the goal is achieved.
