Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

“Yeah—no, it hurts! I poked my finger again!!”

Huiyu Lev covered his hand, but his steps unconsciously moved towards Karasuno.

"Where are you going?"

"You can handle this minor injury yourself, right, Lev?"

"what!!"

Two of his third-year seniors grabbed the shoulders of Huiyu Lev, who was about to go find the girl, and forcibly dragged him back.

"I'm sorry, Yeyue-san, our team members gave you..."

Kuroo Tielang forced a smile and stretched out his hand to greet Yeyue who was looking over.

——"You come back too!"

Yakue Eisuke held a Gray-feathered Lev in one hand and a Black-tailed Tielang in the other.

He glared at them angrily and said to Yeyue apologetically: "I'm sorry, my team members and captain have caused you trouble."

Before Ye Yue could figure out what was going on, she subconsciously said, "It's okay."

"Yeyue."

Kiyoko Shimizu, who was busy with other things, received a look from her teammate, and after taking a look at the situation, she roughly understood it and walked over to talk to her.

"Yes, what?"

"I'll take care of this. Can you please let Yeyue take care of the outside?"

Kiyoko Shimizu looked serious and calmly pointed at a group of Karasuno players who were receiving punishment outside the gymnasium.

"I see."

Although she was a little confused, Yeyue still followed the instructions obediently.

In an invisible corner, Xi Gu Xi made a provocative face towards Yin Ju.

"What? It's all the fault of the two seniors. Karasuno's defense is even tighter! I haven't even asked for Ye-chan's contact information yet! If I miss this time, I don't know when the next time will be!"

With tears in his eyes, Huiyu Lev held his hand which had been roughly bandaged by Yakueisuke, feeling aggrieved.

"We have to think of a way to get rid of those annoying crows."

Kuroo Tetsuro looked over there and gave a smirk that he thought was hearty but was actually ruffian and provocative.

"Hey, hey, you two should tone it down. If you keep going like this you'll scare the girls away!"

Yejiu Weifu said this with some helplessness. In the morning, he wanted to return the handkerchief to Yeyue. As soon as he took a step, he received a warning from Karasuno.

It's just like preventing thieves. Isn't it too much? Is it necessary?

"Hey--"

The voice calling his own was cold and calm.

"Tsukishima-kun? Want some water?"

Yeyue turned around and asked.

The boy just raised his chin and stared at the girl who was more than a head shorter than him with a look of suspicion.

"what happened?"

Although Tsukishima was usually very rude to him, he seemed even weirder today.

"you……"

Tsukishima Hotaru opened his mouth, but the next words seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit them out. He touched his neck in annoyance and said, "Forget it."

Looking at the boy's leaving figure, Yeyue had an inexplicable expression.

What the hell? And where is he going? The bathroom? Why did he tell me? Or is it a popular custom among boys to accompany each other to the bathroom? Does he want me to accompany him to the bathroom? No way, Tsukishima is not that kind of person...

Think no more.

Several people from Shengchuan were also being punished outside.

Yeyue had the same attitude, handing water to those who needed it and towels to those who needed it, and even chatting with those who were in a negative mood.

Her team members had already gone in to continue training. She didn't mind taking care of the others.

"Manager Karasuno is so nice~ She's pretty, gentle, and considerate..."

"She said my spiking has improved. Is she observing me? Could it be that...she likes me?"

"...Ahem! Don't ask this question in front of those people from Karasuno, or you'll get beaten."

"But if you don't like me, why would you..."

"You said - our manager...what happened?"

Tsukishima Hotaru stood silently behind the few people. Her tall figure cast a shadow, and the faint fake smile on the corner of her mouth was creepy.

"what!!"

Tsukishima Hotaru was in a stalemate with them for a while, and then she felt bored, and the curve of her mouth was flattened, "That person... our manager is like this to everyone, don't think too much."

She treats everyone like this. You are not the special one. You will never be the special one. Don't be fooled and don't think too much.

"Tsukishima-kun! The next game is about to start!"

Yeyue found Tsukishima Hotaru and waved to him.

"Oh."

Tsk—it’s the same with everyone, no one is special.

The most gentle and ruthless guy.

——She has always been like this.

After answering, Tsukishima Hotaru turned around and went into the gymnasium. As regular players, they would have more matches, and they would play more frequently.

Other players in grades one and two can also get on the court from time to time to get training, which also gives the starting players who have been playing consecutive games a little breathing time.

When passing by the girl with black hair and red eyes, Tsukishima Hotaru paused, and his cold eyes touched her and then disappeared.

"Ok?"

Yeyue didn't miss his gaze and tilted her head in confusion. Knowing that she wouldn't get an explanation from the boy, she didn't want to make herself look bad. She just chuckled and explained, "Although the manager's job is a bit busy, there is still time to breathe. Compared to me, the regulars are much more tired. Anyway, thank you for your concern, Tsukishima-kun."

Tsukishima Hotaru raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking that this person had reached the point where he could come up with a gentle reason just by looking at her.

"You really think highly of everyone."

Tsukishima Hotaru had a blank expression on her face and a cold voice.

"Because everyone is a very kind and good person. Of course, this kind of thing affects each other."

She responded with a smile on her face.

Tsukishima Hotaru didn't reply. Jin glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and walked leisurely to the stadium.

Taking advantage of the break, Yeyue found an opportunity, pulled Qingshui Jiezi, and whispered to her his decision.

"I see."

The other party was silent for a while.

"I will go to Hyogo Prefecture, and I will continue to be a manager at the school there."

"Ok."

"If we can make it to the national competition together, see you in Tokyo."

"...Yes, I will."

Kiyoko Shimizu silently clenched her fists. Everyone had one more reason to win. "When are you going to transfer to another school?"

"It should be this holiday, before school starts. Next semester, I will go directly to another school."

"...Okay, I understand. I will keep it a secret from the others, but at least tell the supervising teacher and coaches before you leave."

Kiyoko Shimizu looked away, not looking at the person in front of her, but one hand subconsciously tightly grasped the wrist of the other hand, and her cold and light eyes flashed with an uneasy light.

"Okay, I will."

Yeyue nodded, her eyes flickering. If she wanted to be honest, she could only find a chance to tell it recently.

Summer vacation is coming soon. Although there will be training during the vacation, I don’t know when I will leave. It’s better to leave as soon as possible.

As for the others... it's hard to tell. Before she leaves, she wants to prepare some parting gifts for everyone. Once it's ready, she'll tell the others.

She touched her nose. Why did she feel betrayed? Everyone in Karasuno was very kind to her. Of course, she was reluctant to leave them. However, it was too much torture for her to stay alone in an empty house.

Perhaps she already knew the answer in her heart when she heard that the two people were leaving and she asked Kiyoko Shimizu to try to find other first-year managers. She was still struggling with it until now only because she didn't want to face the farewell of leaving, so she subconsciously rejected and postponed it.

But now, we have to face it.

While thinking about gifts for the Karasuno people, Yeyue observed the habits and hobbies of his own team members, coaches, and teachers, while busying himself with manager's work.

Today passed quickly.

After dinner, Yeyue wanted to go to the gym. At this time, the group of volleyball fanatics were probably still training on their own.

I was walking in the aisle when someone called me.

"Night Moon~"

Bai Fuxuehui waved and greeted Yeyue in the empty classroom, and there was a group of people from various schools around her.

What is this doing?
