Be a heartthrob in Slam Dunk

When she is not working part-time, Chie goes to the Shohoku Gymnasium to assist Ayako with some team manager duties. Haruko and Yumi are also regular visitors to the gym.

"Haruko, I thought your brother had withdrawn from the army and Sakuragi was not here, so you and your friends wouldn't come..."

Chie was bored while recording player data that day, so she chatted with Haruko.

"Hey, I don't watch basketball for anyone, but I really like basketball." Haruko was surprised that Chie would chat with her. Normally, the two of them had little interaction.

"Actually, you are more suitable to be the manager of the basketball department than me, so I have only dared to assist Cai Zi in her work. After all, I don't have that much enthusiasm to focus on basketball."

"But your professionalism in handling injuries made everyone choose you!"

"Actually, it's not bad, but I'm still very grateful to join the basketball club..."

Chie remembered the pink envelope on the table when she visited Sakuragi that day, and said to Haruko with a smile: "When I went to visit Sakuragi that day, I saw the letter you wrote to him, Haruko."

She thought that the signature at the end of the letter was Haruko.

"Haruko, please write to him more often. He is quite lonely there..."

Haruko's friend Matsui looked at Chie strangely, and Chie felt her gaze and looked at her without knowing why.

Matsui had a clear look on his face and immediately felt that this woman was as idiotic as Haruko.

At that moment, he said something unquestionable in a slow tone: "Sugiyama-san is the one who needs to contact Sakuragi frequently. He probably needs your encouragement and comfort more..."

"Of course, the more people encourage him, the happier he will be! I hope Sakuragi will get better soon..."

"If Sugiyama-san is so gentle to every boy, probably no boy can resist him..." Matsui said very straightforwardly.

But what Matsui didn't know was that even boys who didn't interact with each other still confessed their feelings to Chie.

"Well, shouldn't you be nice to your friends?" Chie didn't fully understand what she meant. But it is undeniable that what Chie said is also true.

Yumi interjected: "Chie-chan's character is like this, and this kind of thing cannot be changed..."

"But speaking of it, Mitsui-senpai should have retired. But I heard from Jingchun that in order to perform well in the winter competition, he is practicing against the clock..."

Yumi had heard Chie talk about her childhood sweetheart relationship with Hisashi Mitsui for ten years. Recently, Chie often worked part-time, and she was worried that she would neglect some things in the basketball club. She felt it was necessary to let Chie know about it.

Although Yumi did not explain the reason, Chie could guess what Mitsui Hisashi was thinking. He wanted to enter college through basketball.

Chie couldn't help but feel a sore nose as she watched Mitsui practicing hard in the gym.

Hisuhiro Mitsui often laughs and chats with his first-year students, making Chie completely unaware that he is a third-year senior and needs to consider things like entering a higher school.

All this time, Mitsui Shou's protection for her was presented before her eyes like a fleeting glimpse of flowers.

The senior who took such good care of him was going through the most important stage in his life, but he didn't even realize it.

Whether it's moral support or labor help, Chie wants to give.

But then he thought of his pride and strong will - Mitsui-senpai must not want to expose his vulnerability in front of him.

So far, all Chie can do is give him water, towels, and talk to him.

But she felt it was far from enough...

Since she was not on duty at the cold drink shop that afternoon, Chie asked Ayako to take a break and she went to the school gymnasium to help with the basketball club's chores.

After the afternoon training was over, she finished handling the housework and walked to Mitsui Shou: "Mitsui-senpai, you should also take a rest, don't be too tired..."

Mitsui raised his hand and looked at it, pondering for a moment and said: "There is not much time left..."

Chie took his hand, raised it up into a fist, and said, "But it's not too late... come on!"

"Mitsui-senpai, let's go out and relax together after training. Don't tense up too much..." Chie added, "No matter how late it is, I will wait for you until you want to leave..."

Mitsui Shou was stunned for a moment, then an unusually shining light burst out from his eyes, and he touched Chie's hair: "You little girl, why are you suddenly like this..."

"I'm not used to it and it's very touching, but I also really like you caring about me like this..." Mitsui said silently in his heart.

"Let me pass the ball to Mitsui-senpai..."

Mitsui, who plays basketball, has the confidence to control everything and shoots three-pointers with sharpness. He has been practicing shooting from many different angles from beyond the arc.

They didn't end the practice until Chie's hand was so sore that she couldn't lift it and Mitsui noticed something was wrong with her.

"My little Qingmei, in order to thank you for staying with me today, senior will treat you to dinner!"

"Wow, if I practice with my seniors every night, will I be invited to dinner every day?!"

Mitsui listened to her playful words and couldn't help but pinch her nose gently: "Hahaha... You little greedy cat, of course I have to fulfill your wish!"

Mitsui was in an extremely good mood at the moment. The cool breeze of the summer night blew away the anxiety in his heart. And she, with her sweet smile beside him, is accompanying him towards the other side of his dream...

If every day is like this, then dinner is nothing. Even if you treat yourself to a big meal every day, it's not impossible.

Mitsui asked Chie what she wanted to eat, but Chie, who rarely ate out, naturally didn't understand. So, Mitsui took her to a century-old restaurant to have a meal of sukiyaki.

"Mitsui-senpai, you are so good at choosing a restaurant! It's really delicious!" Chie held a piece of wagyu with her chopsticks and squinted as she was about to put it into her mouth.

"It seems that the days when I was bad and wandering out were not all bad. At least now I know which restaurant is delicious and I can treat my little green plum to eat..." Mitsui laughed at himself.

"Mitsui-senpai is able to make fun of his bad experiences. It seems that he has really let go of those days. He will definitely be able to go on with full expectations in the days to come..." Such a realization flashed in Chie's heart, and she was secretly happy for Mitsui Shou.

"Hehe, I benefited from this..."

……

After dinner, Mitsui took Chie to a small storefront, unlocked it and pushed out a black heavy-duty motorcycle.

"Wow, Mitsui-senpai, this motorcycle is so handsome!"

"Aren't you going to take me for a ride to relax? It seems I have to take you..." Mitsui winked at Chie.

"Then let's go to the beach in Shonan to enjoy the breeze!"

Mitsui wiped the dust off the motorcycle, took out a bucket of oil, poured it in, and finally handed Chie a helmet.

"Hey, the helmet is a bit big..." Chie was wearing a helmet, hanging loosely on her head.

"It turns out I was the one wearing it. There is no women's helmet. You can make do with it first..."

"Didn't Mitsui-senpai have a girlfriend during his bad days? That shouldn't be the case! The senior is so handsome, but those girls really have no taste..."

Mitsui Shou remembered that the girls who confessed to him in the past were all girls with the same problems as himself, with only two or three normal girls here and there.

At that time, I was too busy taking care of myself that I had no thoughts of falling in love... It wasn't until I encountered this beam of light that I forced myself to change and fell hopelessly...

"So, what's your vision?" Mitsui asked...
