Chapter 13 V.14: Lan Lie's Past
At the end of the game, Zhu Chengshao shot a three-pointer towards the basket. The basketball was in the air and everyone saw it. The ball fell high and hit the backboard and then hit the left side of the basket. The side popped out... "The game is over!" Lily of the valley sighed and pressed the timer, picked up the whistle and blew it and walked to the center line of the court, "The final score is 20:21, the blue team won!"

"Yeah!" The four members of the blue team clapped each other's hands in celebration, and Li Ying clenched her fists and jumped up and shouted, "Yoxi, a beautiful victory!"

"Hehe, I finally won!" Ouyang Yuchen took off his glasses with a sigh of relief after wiping off his sweat; Meng Xiaodong scratched his head with a ignorant expression and was still dull, and Lan Lie's original normal expression also eased a little.The players of the red team seemed a little depressed. Zhu Chengshao was still standing motionless at the spot where he threw the ball. Yang Hao stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay little Zhu, just work harder next time."

Ling Lan walked to the side of the field and took out something XZ from her backpack behind her, then walked to the crowd with a basketball in her hand and said, "It was a wonderful 4V4 match, I believe everyone has a deep understanding of each other, right? ?”

The eight people looked at each other and had a brief exchange. Linglan smiled slightly and took out a roll of something similar to a poster from behind, shaking it left and right and said, "I haven't announced the main content I want to talk about today."

"Key points?" Everyone looked at the volume of things that Ling Lan was holding in his hand and didn't understand, but Ye Fan had a calm expression and seemed to know what Ling Lan was about to say.Ling Lan walked to the side of the field and everyone followed. Lan Shi handed her the torn double-sided tape, and Ling Lan put a roll of white paper in her hand on the wall in the middle of the field:
Phoenix High School Basketball Winter League schedule, and then a red line was drawn under Xiangshan Middle School:

Everyone looked at the schedule posted on the wall in astonishment, Ling Lan stood aside and patted on the schedule and said, "Attention, members of the basketball team of Xiangshan Middle School, this year's city-wide basketball winter league is only one month away. It’s officially opened, this is the general schedule map, you can take a closer look.”

"There are many teams in the city's winter basketball league..." Ouyang Yuchen adjusted his glasses and said, "Are there a total of 64 middle schools participating?"

Ye Fan nodded and pointed to the location of Xiangshan Middle School in the upper left corner area and said: "The City Winter League has a total of north and south districts, and our Xiangshan Middle School is a team in Group A of the southern district."

"Yes." Ling Lan looked at everyone and said, "The winter league adopts a staged knockout format, and the final winners from the north and south divisions will compete for the league championship, which is the 'North-South War' of the winter league... more importantly Yes, entering the quarter-finals of the winter league is the minimum qualification to participate in the national league next summer, and this is also the goal our Xiangshan Middle School basketball team must achieve."

"The quarter-finals..." Li Ying looked at the green area in the middle of the schedule and said, "You have to enter this area to participate in the National League next year, right? So that's how it is..."

Meng Xiaodong scratched his head while looking at the schedule and asked, "Why are some schools in other colors?"

"The colored ones are the top eight teams of last year." Yang Hao looked carefully at the schedule map and said, "The top eight teams of last year's winter league, the northern districts were Juncheng College, Yanhai Middle School, and Youtanhua Senior High School Hezaojin Middle School; we have Lincheng No. [-] Middle School, Guhe Middle School, Fenghuang No. [-] Middle School in our southern district, and last year's champion."

"Champion..." The first-year players were not clear about the game situation in previous years. Ye Fan said calmly: "Last year's city-wide winter league champion: The High School Affiliated to Phoenix City University is not only a wealthy high school basketball school in Phoenix City, but also in the national league. A championship favorite that hasn't missed a Summer National League game since its inception."

Ling Lan looked at the municipal high school attached to the upper left corner of the southern district and said with a little ease: "Fortunately, we won't meet this team until we reach the finals of the southern district...First of all, we have to face our opponent in the first round, Qingyu Middle School, Get ready for the next month, everyone!"

"Yes!" The players present were full of fighting spirit, and Ling Lan had been paying attention to Lan Lie's demeanor. He showed a kind of focused eyes that had never been seen before. Ling Lan could sense that Lan Lie and the other men mentioned just now Schools have a delicate connection.The sky was getting gloomy, everyone left the basketball court one after another, Lan Shi went to Ling Lan and helped her pick up her backpack and said, "Miss Ling Lan, are you still going back?"

Ling Lan saw that there were only her and Lan Shiu left in the basketball court, so she let go and asked, "Xiu, if I ask you about your brother, would you tell me?"

Listening to Ling Lan's question, Lan Xiao lowered her head and remained silent. Ling Lan patted her on the shoulder, took her backpack and comforted her and said, "Okay, Xiao Xiao, just pretend that I didn't ask because of my curiosity... let's go home together."

"Brother, he..." Lan Xiaoxiao slowly raised his head while pinching the edge of his skirt and said, "He used to be a member of the basketball team of the High School Affiliated to Phoenix City University."

A few minutes later, on the way home, Lily Lan walked beside Lan Hour. Lan Hour reluctantly said: "My brother Lan Lie is a person who loves basketball very much... I have watched him play since I was a child. Growing up in basketball, after graduating from junior high school, my elder brother chose the city university high school with the strongest basketball strength in the city, and later he was also selected for the school's basketball team... At that time, I was really proud of him."

"Then what happened later?" Ling Lan looked at Lan Xiao and asked with some doubts, "Since your brother has already been selected as a member of the basketball giants, why now..."

Lan Xiao bit his lip and said softly: "Brother, he only found out after he entered the High School Attached to City University that the basketball team in the High School Affiliated to City University is not only strong, but most of the players are rich kids from well-known families... the venues used, the clothes His jerseys, and the friends around him are noble students... and my brother is just an ordinary student who loves basketball. In the first year of the middle school attached to the city university, my brother is just a training partner and a substitute, even..."

Hearing Lan Shi's crying voice, Ling Lan quickly comforted her and said, "Okay, Xiao Shi doesn't need to talk about it..."

"I didn't even give him a chance to play for a minute..." Lan Xiao narrated and couldn't help crying, "He obviously... obviously worked harder than everyone else, but he just loved basketball more...why... "

Ling Lan gently stroked Lan Shi's bangs and said, "You don't have to cry when you are Xiao...do you know that?"

Ling Lan looked into Lan Shi's eyes and smiled and said, "Your brother is now the ace player of the basketball team."

"Really?" Lan Xiao was moved to tears, Ling Lan nodded with affirmative eyes, "Thank you... Thank you Miss Ling Lan..."

"It is I who want to thank you." Ling Lan said with a grin, "You were willing to tell me these secrets when I was young. You are really an open-minded person."

Blue Hour thanked Lily Lane gratifiedly. In her eyes, Lily Lane gave Lan Lie a chance like rebirth, allowing this young man who loves basketball to return to the court to show his unfulfilled long-cherished wish.
