The bento they ate at the rest stop was made by Ryo Sakurai.I don't know if it's because of the boy's soft personality, but the bento he made is also very cute. If you take it to school, people will probably think that you took your sister's lunch by mistake.Ah-chan silently memorized the arrangement and the dishes, and stored them in the database in her mind.She ate quietly and didn't speak, Sakurai Ryo looked hesitant to speak, looked at her secretly, but didn't speak first.

After eating, they rested for a while before returning to the car.Probably with the previous precedent, when Ah-chan wanted to sleep for a while again, it made a lot of sense where she was going to lie down.

But before lying down, the girl still asked Sakurai Ryodao in a low voice: "...is it okay?"

And the boy blushed and replied: "Please, please don't hesitate..."

This sentence is somewhat strange in this situation, she showed a look as if she was amused, lay down, and closed her eyes.

It wasn't until she heard her breathing slowly became longer that Sakurai Ryo carefully lowered his eyes and quietly looked at her delicate and delicate side face.There was a hint of sadness in the girl's eyebrows, but at this moment it seemed to have finally eased up a little in her sleep.

With a slight hook of his fingers, he subconsciously curled up a lock of A-chan's loose long hair.The soft and smooth long black hair has a touch like silk, with a slight coolness, wrapped around the fingertips, it is inexplicably soft and unbelievable.

Twisting fingers softly...is that the case...?

The boy's eyes couldn't help but fell on the girl's white and slender neck and her small and lovely ears in a daze.

This was the closest he had been to her so far, but even though he could touch her with his outstretched hand, Sakurai knew very well that she was still so far away from him, almost out of reach.

In junior high school, she was a member of Diguang.The Generation of Marvel was so dazzling and terrifying that it almost eclipsed everyone else in its time period.At that time, she stood beside them like a goddess in radiance, as if even talking to her freely was a kind of contempt.

Now she goes to Seirin.Compared with Teiguang, Seirin doesn't have that radiance and awe-inspiring arrogance that is almost on the altar.But this does not mean that Sakurai-chan has become closer to mediocre ordinary people like them.

Now that he has become Tonghuang's main candidate, he trains hard, in order to be able to stand in front of her with confidence and win.

He hoped that her eyes could stay on him even for a moment.

However... Ryo Sakurai thought very unwillingly... He felt that Emperor Tong would not be afraid of Seirin. Perhaps half of the reason was because the once terrifying generation of miracles had dispersed, and they had Teiko once. Aomine Daiki's trump card.

Even if you win...

The girl's gaze will probably only fall on Aomine-kun...

Moreover, those who follow miracles know that Aomine Daiki seems to have been with Sakurai-chan for a while.

Why did they break up then?

After Kaixue and Aomine-kun were assigned to the same class, Sakurai found that when he knew that he had the same surname as A-Chan, his attitude towards him was very subtle.

That subtle rejection and resistance was like rejecting everything that reminded him of Sakurai-chan, but that attitude just showed that he still cared about her very much.People who care about her like this will definitely not be the ones who want to separate from her on their own initiative.

So... it wasn't Qingfeng-kun who proposed to break up, but Ah-chan who chose to leave?

Sakurai Ryo originally had a bit of a grudge against Aomine-kun because of the fact that they had been in a relationship, but after knowing about it, he was slightly happy.

Thinking about these things, the young man lowered his eyes, unknowingly held Ah-chan's hair, and fell into a half-dream and half-awake state.

He vaguely thought that because Qingfeng-jun always walks alone, he neither participated in the training nor asked him anything, so he never told him that he and Ah-chan are not just the same surname This matter, presumably... has nothing to do with it.

Sensing the extra silence in the back seat, Mrs. Sakurai glanced back in the rearview mirror.Seeing that the two children in the back seat had both fallen asleep, she looked at her handsome and fair son, recalling his gentle and caring personality, and thought that if Ah-chan and him were really together, There's nothing wrong with that either.

……

In this way, it was already evening when they arrived at the village where Sakurai-chan's grandfather lived.

Because it was a heart attack caused by high blood pressure, the old man is currently in the intensive care unit and is still under observation.If you want to visit, you have to wait until tomorrow to see that the situation is stable and you can see it after you are transferred out of the intensive care unit.

So after the Sakurai couple had a phone call with the hospital, they took Ah-chan and Sakurai Ryo to a hotel.

It is a Japanese-style family hotel with a traditional structure. It looks old, but it is very clean and tidy.

As soon as she saw Ah-Chan, the rather old proprietress looked at her in amazement and said, "Oh, is this the child from the Sakurai family? He has grown up so much, and is getting more and more beautiful! It's the third year of Nian Guo... …Is it right?"

Ah-chan smiled, she knew that this was the result of Jin Qiu hypnotizing her when she set up her identity, so she was not surprised and replied very naturally: "I'm already in the first year of high school."

The old but still capable proprietress smiled kindly, "Time flies so fast... I still remember when you were a child, you liked to run into the mountains all day long, and you couldn't stop it. You can't be wild. Now , have grown into big girls."

This countryside is very aging, and most of the people left behind are old grandparents. As for their own memories, they sometimes don’t remember them clearly. Jin Qiu confused them a little, and they She will unconsciously regard other children's things as Ah Chan's childhood impressions - for example, the child who likes to run in the mountains is probably her own grandchildren, but she remembers it as Ah Chan's things.

The Sakurai family seemed a little surprised, Mrs. Sakurai seemed to find it very amused and said, "Hey...was Ah-chan's personality like this when she was young?"

Indeed, that kind of wild girl-like childhood is hard to connect with this slim young girl now.However, even if it is unreasonable, there is no way to do it - human memory is not so easy to manipulate, and it is okay to be slightly confused, but it is impossible to accurately fabricate a memory out of thin air.Ah-chan could only smile, but fortunately no one would look into it, so she just left it vague.Mrs. Sakurai just felt a little surprised and felt that this contrast was quite interesting, but she didn't suspect anything.

After taking a bath, they had a simple dinner in the hotel, because the Sakurai couple rested early after a day of traveling on the road.They live in one room, and Ah-chan and Sakurai Ryo live in one room each.But it is said that there are three rooms, in fact, the rooms on the entire floor are connected to each other-but they are separated by paper doors.

The Sakurai couple lived in the innermost part of the corridor, Sakurai Ryo was in the middle, and then Ah-chan's room.

There is no other entertainment in the countryside. After the adults rested, the two children followed suit.

However, perhaps because the night in the countryside was too quiet, Ryo Sakurai had trouble falling asleep.He turned sideways, looking at the figure of a girl lying on her side printed on the door next to the wallpaper, just staring blankly, but suddenly saw her sitting up.

Sakurai was taken aback for a moment, and quickly closed his eyes.He wondered uneasily, could it be that his sight disturbed her?But immediately, he heard some noises - the paper door between their rooms was pushed open a thin crack from the girl's side.

He heard the girl's voice, and it sounded softly in the darkness: "...Liangjun...? Are you asleep?"

Sakurai didn't know if she was testing whether he was still awake or if she was peeking at her just now, but hearing her uneasy tone, he felt that it was not a test.The boy opened his eyes hesitantly and said, "...not yet...what's wrong?"

Ah-chan seemed to be slightly relieved.She said, "I can't sleep..."

In the darkness, the girl whispered softly, "Can you talk to me, Mr. Liang?"

"Eh, eh!?" It took a while to realize what she meant, and Sakurai Ryo let out a few sounds because he was too surprised and didn't know what to say, so it became a meaningless monosyllable.

"...Can't you?"

"Ah... yes, I'm sorry-I didn't mean that...that... yes! yes!"

"Thank you."

After slowly getting used to the darkness, Ryo Sakurai seemed to see a smile on the girl's face.

She said, "Then...if Liangjun doesn't mind...can I sleep a little bit?"

The so-called falling asleep means... dragging the bedding to the edge of the paper door.They are only separated by a paper door, lying in such a close distance, they have never crossed the boundary, but they are clearly so close.

The girl seemed very happy, she lay down again, now Ryo Sakurai no longer needed to stare at her silhouette, but could directly and clearly see her face.

Sakurai-chan was lying on his side, and he was so close that he could count her long and thick eyelashes.He heard her say: "...I'm a little afraid of the dark, even though I know Liangjun is next door, I'm still a little scared by myself..."

The young man stammered a bit awkwardly and replied, "Uh...uh..."

"Does Liangjun think I'm troublesome?"

"That's not the case! Absolutely, I definitely don't think so!"

He saw the girl laugh silently in the dark, and immediately felt even more embarrassed, not knowing what to say.

As if aware of his embarrassment, A-chan stretched out a hand towards him.The girl's gentle, white and tender back of her hand lightly stroked the side of the boy's face, directly baffled Sakurai Ryo.

He heard her ask him gently: "Liangjun is in school, do you know any cute girls?"

"...No, no..."

"However, Liangjun has good grades and good looks. He is also the main pick of the basketball club. He should be very popular, right?" Ah Chan withdrew her hand as if she had never posted anything, and smiled slightly. Asked: "There must be a girl who confessed her love?"

"No……"

"Eh, really? So, who is the most popular?"

"The most popular... in the basketball club... should be Aomine-kun..."

"... Qingfeng-kun... Ah Da."

Ah-chan paused, thinking, if the most noteworthy thing about Emperor Tong is Qingfeng, then it means that there are no other cabbage worth collecting in this school—because with Qingfeng’s germ cells, there is no need to collect any more An existence weaker than Aomine.

But misunderstood her long pause and silence, and heard her intimate address, Sakurai couldn't help but grabbed the quilt tightly, and asked cautiously: "... By the way, Ah-chan, why was it at that time, and Aomine-kun divided?"

This time the girl was silent for longer.

Just when Ryo Sakurai guessed in annoyance that Ah-chan might be angry, she replied softly: "...Because Aomine-kun hasn't changed."

"...?" This reason made him stunned for a moment, but he was completely puzzled, "No change means...?"

"Mr. Qingfeng stopped at the same place and refused to go any further." A-chan further explained: "Because he wanted to be defeated, he refused to continue to become stronger. He still doesn't participate in training, right? ?”

"……Um……"

"Yeah, so he still hasn't changed at all."

"But, but... Aomine-kun, even if he doesn't participate in training, he has never lost..."

indeed so.

It's just that human beings only need to win, but what Ah-chan needs is genes—preferably genes that are constantly evolving, becoming stronger, and constantly renewing their value.

She has already collected Qingfeng's germ cells at this stage, and she is looking forward to his growth, looking forward to updating his germ cells into more powerful genes after he grows up.However, Qingfeng chose to stay where he was.

Not only him, but Akashi as well.

After one-on-one with Murasakihara, he changed his personality.

Akashi didn't hide this on purpose, so almost everyone in the basketball club was aware of it.

But Ah-chan doesn't think that the Akashi who changed his personality is stronger than the previous Akashi-he seems to be more powerful, but that's just a change in personality.Essentially, Ah-chan even felt that he had become weaker.

Because today's Akashi appears because of the fear of failure.

How could Akashi, who was always afraid of something, become stronger?

In her opinion, the previous Akashi had more value for growth and evolution, but he hid himself.

People who can't face winning or losing, people who are afraid of losing... If they can't get over that hurdle, then they are just like Aomine, they just stop.

For such a gene, it is enough to collect it once.If they've always been like this, there's no point in even updating.

However, if something can change, they are indeed the two most valuable young cabbages, and she still has expectations for them.

After Kise and Midorima lost, Achan felt their growth, so when Jin Qiu appeared, she asked him to collect information about Akashi, and wanted to see if he was still hiding in another personality behind, do not want to appear.

Now, Ah-chan already knows that Aomine has not changed in Tonghuang, so what about Akashi?

The golden ball has been gone for a while, and counting the time, it will be back almost soon.I don't know whether he will bring good news or bad news...
