Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

"Tsukishima-kun, please take care of me on the way back~"

This person——

Tsukishima Hotaru looked at the girl sitting next to her with a bright smile.

He suddenly turned around and glared at Yamaguchi Tadashi, who was sitting with Hinata Shoyo, with an unhappy expression.

Yamaguchi Tadashi's body froze and he looked away silently.

Although he didn't know how the two of them started arguing, he really hoped that they could reconcile.

So come on! Yeyue-san!

Yue too, don't always have a stern face towards such a nice manager!

Hehe——

Yeyue smiled brightly at the boy.

No one else had any idea about Yeyue and Yamaguchi Tadashi switching positions.

Instead, Xigu Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

Tsukishima Hotaru, not bad!

Anyway, it's safer than sitting with Sugawara Koji or others.

Tsukishima is always angry with everyone, even girls.

But Yeyue has a good temper, so it is understandable that he would take the initiative to adjust the other party's impression of himself.

The blond boy sighed and prepared to fall asleep on the way back. In this way, it didn’t matter who was around him.

Looking at her boyfriend who chose to escape, Yeyue was actually a little confused, but she couldn't think of any good solution for the time being.

The teammates in the car fell asleep one after another, and Yeyue drew the curtains to block out the dazzling sunset outside.

He turned around and looked at Tsukishima Hotaru who was sleeping with her eyes closed.

The boy turned his face away from the aisle, and he could only see his fair cheeks and smooth chin.

"..."

let go!

Feeling something, Tsukishima Hotaru opened her cold eyes, frowned and spoke to her.

No!

As expected, he wasn't asleep yet. When the sunlight came in just now, I saw his eyelashes tremble.

She also lip-synced, took one of the boy's hands, and smiled at him. Only when he couldn't help but turn his face away did she carefully observe the boy's bony hand.

The boy's fingers were white and slender, his skin was delicate and as soft as jade, his palms had a layer of slightly rough calluses, and there was a callus on the middle finger joint left by frequent pen holding. Yeyue pinched it.

"?!!"

Tsukishima Hotaru turned around and glared at her. If her cheeks hadn't been slightly red, it would probably have been more intimidating.

What about a little fun?

Playing with her boyfriend's hand legally, Yeyue grinned unconsciously.

"..."

Tsukishima Hotaru held her chin with one hand, trying to block any possible glances from the other side of the driveway.

However, listening to the breathing sounds coming and going in the dim carriage, he felt that he was overthinking.

I lost my composure because I was in an unfamiliar situation. It was really lame.

Come to think of it, how long do you plan to play? Stop it now!

Yeyue received the glare from her boyfriend and calmed down. She was a little sleepy anyway.

She silently clasped her fingers together, yawned, and gradually fell into a deep sleep as the car swayed.

After a while.

The boy glanced at her.

Tsukishima Hotaru tried to pull her hand out without waking the other person up, but it was in vain.

After confirming that the other person was asleep, Tsukishima Hotaru hesitated for a moment before slowly touching the other person, hiding their clasped hands under the suspended armrest.

I fell asleep unknowingly.

"stand up."

She was woken up by Tsukishima Hotaru's cold voice while she was drowsy. She raised her hand to cover her yawn, and then she realized that she had let go of the hand they were holding.

When the boy saw that she had woken up, he stood up and squeezed into the aisle.

"Tsukishima, stop pushing!"

"Ah la la ~ I'm so sorry, I was too young to see it."

"Tsukishima you bastard!"

Hinata Shoyo and Tsukishima Hotaru were bickering again. The others were used to it.

Yeyue stretched and followed the boys out of the car.

"Okay, next up is summer vacation, but the Spring High School Qualifiers are also coming up, so even if there is no intensive training, don't relax, then disband."

The coach was yawning, his eyes full of fatigue.

"Yes! Thank you for your hard work!"

After the summer training, there is a long yet short vacation. The training of the Karasuno volleyball team will still continue, but compared to school days, there is still a lot more free time.

The first round of Spring High School qualifiers is at the end of the summer vacation, so we cannot slack off in training.

"moon."

Hearing such a cry.

Tsukishima Hotaru and Yamaguchi Tadashi paused as they left.

"It seems like someone is calling you, Yue, and it's a nice girl's voice!"

Yamaguchi Tadashi looked around with curiosity on his face.

Tsukishima Hotaru frowned slightly. He didn't know any girl who would call him "Tsuki".

As I was looking in the direction where the sound came from, I saw a familiar figure running towards that direction with a backpack on his back, his soft black hair floating in the air in a graceful arc.

"Kanna, Rei!"

"It's the manager! Could it be that Yeyue-san's family actually calls Yeyue-san 'Tsuki'? It's pronounced the same as Yue!" Yamaguchi Tadashi looked curious, like a child who had discovered candy.

"…Nothing strange. Let's go."

Tsukishima Hotaru glanced over there.

Shenna helped Yeyue take off her schoolbag, and Aling helped carry it. The three of them walked side by side, talking and laughing in low voices, and were about to leave.

Very spoiled.

Among this group of people, the other two managers also went home on their own.

People like them have basically been going home on their own since elementary school. In comparison, it seems that someone comes to pick up my manager from home every night.

The other two girls also had long hair, and their faces couldn’t be seen clearly. They looked about the same height as Yeyue.

They are probably sisters, and they seem to have a good relationship.

Tsukishima Hotaru didn't think much about it.

Yeyue seldom talks about herself. All they know about her is that she is a foreigner and a transfer student. Yeyue is her real name, so it sounds strange to call her that sometimes.

Also, he has a good memory, excellent grades, a gentle and cheerful personality, is good at handling interpersonal relationships, can chat with anyone, and is very popular.

That guy, is that the direction of home?

Tsukishima Hotaru took one last look at the girl who was walking further and further away, then called Yamaguchi Tadashi and they went home together.

the other side.

Yeyue stretched lazily, and everyone sitting in the car felt numb.

"I'm very tired. Go back and have a good rest."

"Well - I've slept for four hours in the car, but I'm not sleepy. I feel like I haven't been able to sleep for a while."

Yeyue thought about it. She was very energetic now.

"Playing games?"

Zero suggested.

"May I?"

Yeyue looked at Shenna inquiringly.

"Well, of course. Ling knew Yue would be back today and has been in a very high mood. It would be good for him to relax a little."

Kanna is still as gentle as ever, and that look won't change even if the sky falls.

In the warm night, the gentle cool breeze occasionally caressed my cheeks, blowing the black hair on my forehead.

"Then I want to play some games after taking a shower. Oh, and I'm so hungry..."

"Everything is ready at home. Let's go. Welcome back, Yue."
