Society owes me a brother

Although the words were ruthless, Cui Zhenyang collapsed immediately when the basketball team left the gate of No. [-] High School Colonel.

He borrowed his mobile phone from Yue Bin and called Yao Jiajia's dormitory over and over again.But Yao Jiajia obviously couldn't go back to bed right now.

Facing Cui Zhenyang's futile move, the members of the basketball team were speechless.Lu Chi also asked the boss to serve a few bottles of beer, ready to drink with Cui Zhenyang to relieve his worries.

Seeing this, Zhuoyou just said "According to the school's regulations..." before he was immediately followed by his teammates.

"Hey, I say top student!" Xing Yuan, who felt that he had a "friend in need", stretched out his arms to grab Zhuoyou's shoulders: "Our brothers are all cheated, what's the matter with drinking some wine to relieve your worries? Can you help me at a time like this?" Are you not disappointed?"

"...Okay!" Zhuoyou sighed helplessly, and compromised: "But I don't know how to drink."

Facing Zhuoyou’s behavior of sticking to the bottom line, the teammates smiled knowingly——Sometimes the goodwill of young people comes very simply, and it has nothing to do with money or benefits. It is likely that you said something that suits your appetite when I feel aggrieved , we two became close friends.

"Okay, if you don't drink beer, then you can drink this." Xing Yuan stuffed a bottle of iced Sprite into Zhuoyue's hand.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang smiled and said teasingly: "Yo, you guys are so good, you actually drank too much."

The teammates laughed.

Excellence took off his glasses expressionlessly, not quite understanding the joke in this sentence.

Zhang Yang coughed dryly, held up a beer bottle and touched Zhuoyou's Sprite bottle, and said with a smile: "But you are really good. You just joined the basketball team, and you learned your psychological tactics without a teacher. Those bastards from the first basketball team After hearing what you said, I’m sure I’ll be so angry that I won’t be able to sleep at night.”

"What psychological warfare?" Joyo blinked, "I'm telling the truth."

"It's the truth that makes people angry!" Xing Yuan laughed, and glanced at Cui Zhenyang, who had a livid face and didn't say a word, and only cared about Cui Zhenyang who was drinking: "Anyway, we must win against Yanjing No. [-] Middle School next week. "

"We must win!" All the players raised their glasses together.

Holding the Sprite bottle in his hands, Zhuo Zhuo persuasively said, "You guys should drink less..."

In the end, except for Cui Zhenyang, who drank himself drunk with alcohol, everyone only drank one or two bottles of beer. When they hurried back to school, they happened to step on The bell for evening self-study class.

Before the team members had time to breathe a sigh of relief, they ran into the dean who was patrolling the post.

The faint smell of alcohol that came to his face immediately caught Director Liao's attention.Especially after seeing Cui Zhenyang, who was drunk like mud and kept playing and clamoring to see Yao Jiajia, the director of Mediterranean Sea immediately broke out: "You bastards, you actually went out to drink during school!"

"What are you, are you idle youths in society? You still gather to drink, do you want the school to disqualify your basketball team?"

"There are also Lu Chi and Zhuoyue..." Director Liao pointed at the two people angrily, and said indiscriminately: "You are good students! Why are you mixing with them and blatantly violating school discipline?"

Zhuo Liang hung his head rigidly, his cheeks were hot - since he was in kindergarten, he hadn't been taught such a lesson by his teacher.

Finally, the furious dean finally resorted to his trump card: "Notify your class teachers and ask your parents to come to the school. Everyone writes a [-]-word self-criticism, and next Monday at the flag-raising ceremony, in front of the school teachers and students face to do a review."

"Also, if there is another time, all of your basketball team will be suspended. Did you hear that!"

"I heard it!" All the basketball players agreed in unison.

After Director Liao left aggressively, the well-behaved teammates with lowered brows and narrowed eyes burst into laughter, each patted their chests and said with lingering fear: "My god, I've passed the test."

"It's unlucky to meet Lao Liao on the playground... Shouldn't he be studying late in the teaching building at this point?"

"I want to call my parents again, what excuse should I find this time?"

Lu Chi, whose parents are not in the local area at all, and who never forbids his children to drink alcohol, said that he was not under any pressure. He turned his head to look at Zhuo Yue who kept his head down and remained silent: "Are you okay?"

Zhuoyou lowered his head and said nothing.There was an aura of not getting close to strangers all over his body.

The booing teammates slowly quieted down, looking at each other at a loss.

Xing Yuan bent down with his hands in his pockets, and leaned in front of Zhuoyue: "Hey, are you really okay...are you?"

Zhuo Liang didn't answer, he raised his head slowly, his whole body was as stiff as a weathered plaster statue, and everyone could almost hear the rusty "click" sound of joints coming from his body.

"I... have never been so ashamed..."

Call the parents, write a self-criticism, and do a self-criticism at the flag-raising ceremony...

Excellence stared at Lu Chi blankly, his eyes sparkled, and he asked in a low tone: "Playing basketball...can really improve your grades?"

So terrifying!

A group of basketball players took a few steps back in fright.

Sensing Zhuo Liang's almost collapsed emotions, Lu Chi blinked and said firmly, "No!"

Click!

"Wow!" The basketball players hugged each other and shivered in fright.

Yue Bin stretched out his slender fingers and poked Lu Chi's shoulder: "At this time...don't risk your life to make jokes."

"I'm not joking." His eyes swept over Zhuo Yue, whose expression collapsed and his body was stiff, Lu Chi smiled and hooked the corners of his mouth: "I never said that playing basketball can improve performance."

Joyo raised his head sharply and stared at Lu Chi.

"I won't be responsible for what I didn't say. Even if we are friends." Lu Chi smiled and continued: "But playing basketball can promote blood circulation and metabolism, the brain turns faster, and the thinking is clearer. It’s a real feeling too.”

But there is no necessary connection between playing basketball and improving grades...? !

Zhuoyou took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I understand?"

He glanced at Lu Chi, turned and left without saying a word.

"Uh, what did he understand?" Xing Yuan looked at Zhuo Liang's back and scratched his head in a daze.

"Qiaoyou looks so disappointed. Will he participate in the daily practice of the basketball team tomorrow?"

"I don't know about Ang. But it's obvious that playing basketball can't improve your grades. How could he have such an idea? If it's true, are we still busy making up exams every time?"

"Actually, Excellence doesn't look that bad... What a pity!"

"If he really retired, he should be the member of our basketball team with the shortest time in the team, right? He has broken the school history record..."

Just as the teammates were gossiping about this new member who had just joined the club and might be leaving the club, a loud snoring sound suddenly sounded.

The teammates glanced at Cui Zhenyang, who had fallen asleep on the ground at some point, and shook their heads in unison!

On the other side, Zhang Yang elbowed Lu Chi, winked and said with a smile: "I found that you are very talented in sales! Playing basketball can improve your grades... How did you do it? How do I feel?" Do you still believe in excellence even now?"

Lu Chi didn't speak, but just glanced thoughtfully at the direction in which Excellence left.

At noon the next day, when the friends returned to the basketball hall after eating and drinking, they were particularly horrified to find that there were actually people in the basketball hall!

Zhuoyou, who was cleaning up with a mop, looked at his late teammates with distaste: "It takes so long to eat a meal, no wonder our school's performance in the two basketball leagues is getting worse and worse!"

A group of teammates: "..."

"excellence!"

"Excellence is back!"

"Excellence, you have not retreated!"

The members of the basketball team surrounded the excellent group, patting their shoulders and rubbing their heads to show their intimacy.

With a blank expression on his face, Joyo patted everyone's arms away, turned his head and looked at Lu Chi who was standing at the door: "Hey, what did you do on the first day you came to the basketball team?"

Lu Chi smiled slightly: "Practice pitching."

"Let's measure your measurements first!" Xing Yuan smiled and picked up a notebook: "I can make a team uniform for you. By the way, do you have any vests and shorts for practice?"

Excellence nodded, Xing Yuan smiled and said, "Then I'll take you to the locker room to change."

A few minutes later, Xing Yuan returned to the basketball court with the changed clothes.

"According to the regulations of the basketball club, newcomers have to undergo basic training just after entering the club. However, your situation is different from that of ordinary newcomers, so in the next time, I will teach you how to shoot first." Xing Yuan said, and walked out of the basketball cart Pick up a basketball and walk to the free throw line: "Let's practice two-handed shots from the spot first."

"...First of all, the five fingers should be spread naturally, and the back side of the ball should be held above the base of the fingers. The palm should be hollow, and the two thumbs should be in a figure-eight shape..." Xing Yuan made a demonstration movement: "Elbow To sag naturally, relax the shoulders and neck, put the ball between the chest and jaw, the center of the standard hoop, and shoot lightly..."

Xing Yuan threw the ball skillfully. The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell into the net with a pleasant "empty" sound.

"How is it?" Xing Yuan took another ball and handed it to Zhuoyue: "Do you want to try it?"

Excellence received the ball without saying a word, and made a pose according to Xing Yuan's action just now.

"Wait a minute!" Xing Yuan stepped forward, helped Zhuoyue correct his movements, then took a step back and said with a smile, "Okay."

The nearly 1.9-meter-high man stood behind him, and instantly compared the 1.7-meter-high excellence to nothing.Zhuo Liang took a step forward uncomfortably.

Xing Yuan saw it, smiled and said: "Come back, you have to stand at the free throw line."

After a pause, he smiled and comforted, "Don't be too nervous. It's normal for a rookie to miss a pitch for the first time."

"I'm not nervous." Excellence stared ahead blankly, and murmured: "This is just a simple physics problem. My current position is 4.225 meters from the basket, and the distance from the basket to the ground is 3.05 meters. The height is 1.7 meters, and my height is [-] meters two..."

The outstanding and professional calculation immediately attracted other players who were warming up in the basketball arena.All the melon-eaters put down their work and looked over, and some couldn't help whispering, "That's amazing!"

"It's the same as Lu Chi's algorithm, is it true that all Xueba play basketball so well?"

"Is it necessary to learn physics and mathematics well to play basketball?"

Zhuoyue turned a deaf ear to other people's comments, still maintained a high degree of attention, and analyzed accurately: "...so according to the most basic physics formula, I only need to lift the ball to a height of X degree angle, and then use N Newton Throw your strength out..."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the orange basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then... at a place half a meter away from the basket, it fell gracefully, bouncing on the floor, rolling...

excellence:"……"

A group of teammates: "..."

The air was suddenly quiet, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Xing Yuan almost laughed out loud, he turned his back quickly, his shoulders shook violently a few times, then he turned around and said solemnly: "Let's do it again!"

"How come..." Zhuoyou blinked blankly, and subconsciously looked left and right.

The teammates who were still paying attention to this side immediately twisted their waists, stretched their legs, and ran back and forth. Even Yue Bin and Lu Chi started one-on-one passing practice. busy.

Excellence quietly breathed a sigh of relief, took another basketball from Xing Yuan's hand, and put on a shooting posture.

"Relax your body, keep your wrists flexible, be gentle..."

Zhuoyou took a deep breath: "It must be that I made a mistake just now. I forgot to decompose the speed of the ball into horizontal speed and vertical speed. Then move according to the uniform deceleration in the vertical direction... so the correct formula should be... ..."

Xing Yuan looked confused: "???"

Zhuoyou spent 2 minutes to calculate the angle and strength needed for his shot, took another deep breath, and made a light shot——

The basketball continued to fall half a meter away from the basket.

excellence:"!!!"

"How did this happen?" Zhuo Liang looked at the basketball rolling on the ground with a broken face, went up to pick it up and shook it: "How much does this basketball weigh? Should I recalculate based on the weight of the basketball... ..."

"Air buoyancy..."

"Earth gravity……"

"Resistance and friction..."

A group of basketball players stared at Zhuo Yue who had picked up a pen and paper and sat on the floor at some point in a daze, "???"

"Hey, is this the basketball team?"

"probably?"

A group of teammates looked at Excellence in awe, their confidence so weak that they didn't even dare to speak loudly.

"Hey, Lu Chi!" Zhuoyue suddenly turned his head and looked at Lu Chi with a begging look on his face: "Come and help me to see, my formula is right? I am standing on the free throw line, the vertical distance between the arm and the shoulder is thirty degrees corner, and then lightly throw the basketball with a force of 48 Newtons... Theoretically, it should be able to hit it!"

But why does basketball just refuse to fall into the basket? ? ?

Lu Chi blinked, stepped forward and pulled Joyce up: "You're right."

"But why can't my ball go into the basket?" Zhuoyou said, with a little bit of inexplicable grievance in his tone.

"Probably because..." Before Lu Chi could speak, the captain of the school basketball team, who was in charge of teaching Zhuoyou to pitch, carefully touched Zhuoyou's fingers: "Your hand didn't accurately throw 48 Newtons of force?"

excellence:"……"

Lu Chi: "..."

A group of teammates: "..."

The air was quiet again, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward again.

Zhuoyou blinked and snatched the basketball from Xing Yuan's hand: "Why don't you say that you didn't teach well!"

He turned around and said to Lu Chi, "Lu Chi, can you teach me how to pitch?"

Before the others could react, Zhuoyou pointed back at Xing Yuan behind him, and said with a look of disgust: "I can't trust this kind of person. He has strong limbs and a simple mind. He must be teaching something wrong."

Xing Yuan, who was dissed inexplicably, exploded in an instant: "Hey, Zhuoyou, don't go too far. Why do you blame me for not being able to shoot yourself? When did my limbs develop and my mind become simple?"

Under Lu Chi's instruction, Zhuo Zhuo made a shooting gesture, and said without looking at Xing Yuan: "You are 1.8 meters tall and weigh [-] kilograms. Right?"

Xing Yuan snorted, and asked vindictively: "What's the matter, weak chicken?"

Zhuoyou's glasses shone under the sunlight: "Did you make up the final exam?"

Xing Yuan: "..."

Zhuoyou took off, shot, and the basketball hit the backboard and bounced off.

Zhuoyou clenched his fist confidently: "Sure enough, Lu Chi's teaching is much better than yours."

Xing Yuan: "..."

Taking a deep breath, and taking another breath, Xing Yuan roared unbearably: "You are enough, Zhuo Zhuo, I taught Lu Chi's shooting too?"

"Just admit that you are a weak chicken with a strong brain and uncoordinated limbs!"

Zhuo Zhuo picked up the basketball and patted it on the ground: "If you don't listen, don't listen, you bastard chant the scriptures!"

"Hey, you deserve a beating award..."

"Hey, hey, calm down, captain!" The melon-eating teammates who were watching from the side quickly gathered around and grabbed Xing Yuan desperately: "You must not fight."

"No, I have to teach this brat a lesson!"

"You don't need to stop him. Let him come over!" Zhuoyou said in a sonorous tone, not caring at all: "According to the school's regulations, picking quarrels and provoking troubles for assaulting teammates will be suspended. I think he doesn't want to compete with Yanjing No. [-] Middle School, he should be afraid Lose, so find an opportunity to avoid the end. Everyone is a teammate, why don’t you understand his painstaking efforts, why stop him?”

"Qiao Zhuo, you really want to die..."

"Ah, captain, you really can't fight!"

"Xing Yuan, calm down, Zhuoyou will really tell the teacher to suspend you..."

At the moment when there was a lot of trouble, I heard a shout suddenly: "Have you had enough trouble!"

Everyone turned around suddenly, and saw Lu Chi standing under the basket with a serious face, and the assistant coach's imposing manner was unmistakable: "The lunch break is coming to an end soon, you treat practice with this attitude, you really want to make the next game a reality." Will the victory be handed over to Yanjing No. [-] Middle School?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, without speaking.

Lu Chi pointed to Cui Zhenyang who had been practicing seriously on the other side of the court: "Even if it's for Zhenyang, you should be more serious, right?"

Everyone looked back at Cui Zhenyang, who was pale and silent, and shrank their necks uncomfortably.

Xing Yuan took a deep breath and said, "Stop messing around and start practicing!"

Lu Chi took a look at Zhuo Zhuo: "You are similar. If you provoke Xing Yuan again, you will conduct a review on behalf of the basketball team at the flag-raising ceremony next Monday?"

Joyo raised his head suddenly: "Don't everyone have to do a self-criticism?"

"No." Zhang Yang hugged Xing Yuan's shoulders and said with a smile: "Last night, after you left, Xing Yuan went to Lao Liao again to intercede. He said that he, as the captain, failed to manage the team well, and it was all because of him." responsibility. So let him represent the team to conduct a review in front of the teachers and students of the school... Lao Liao agreed, and there is no need to notify the parents."

is it?

Zhuo Zhuo hugged the basketball, and for some reason, his heart relaxed.

Xing Yuan rubbed his nose with his hand: "However, a [-]-word review still needs to be written."

He looked at Zhuo Zhuo: "A good student like you probably never wrote a self-criticism? If you don't know how to write it, I can lend you a copy. You can just copy it and deal with it—"

"No need!" Zhuoyo clapped the basketball in his hand and turned around: "It's not an example of an excellent composition, and there is no need for reference."

Xing Yuan: "..."

Unable to bear itching and scratching his palms, Xing Yuan turned around quickly and shouted at the team members: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you really want to win the game?"

"Ow!"

All the team members scattered like birds and beasts, what should they do!

Lu Chi smiled and patted Zhuoyou on the shoulder: "Everyone is actually very good."

Yue Bin hung himself on Lu Chi without bone, and said with a smile: "Xing Yuan went to Lao Liao to plead for you, right? After all, except for you and Lu Chi, we are all used to writing self-criticism. problematic students..."

When Yue Bin said this, he stretched his arms to hook Lu Chi's neck, and said with a smile: "But our Lu Chi has a thicker skin and a very strong psychological quality. Even if he conducts a self-criticism in front of all teachers and students, he must Being able to be poised and handsome—”

"Hello!" Lu Chi turned to look at Yue Bin, raised his eyebrows, "Do you have any opinion on my facial structure?"

Yue Bin shook his head with an innocent face, and made a gesture of Xizi holding his heart: "I praise you from the bottom of my heart."

"is it?"

"Yes!"

The two looked at each other with a smile.

Lu *assistant coach* said with a smile: "Three hundred practice three-pointers, start now."

Yue Bin trembled, and immediately said: "Yes!"

Zhuoyou blinked, turned his head to look at Xing Yuan who was practicing slam dunks on the other side of the basket, and then looked at his teammates who were working hard to do other training.

In the afternoon of midsummer, bright sunlight shines in through the windows. In the spacious basketball hall, there are basketballs hitting the floor and backboards everywhere, and the sound of players practicing turning back and running and shouting for cheers.This kind of atmosphere, which is different from the library and study room, is really a different kind of fresh blood.

Zhuoyou subconsciously assumed a shooting posture and threw it lightly.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell into the basket smoothly.

Playing basketball...?
