[Black Basket] Sakura's Basketball

"...Yes, this kind of game is not a problem at all. Ah, it's better to say that because it is too simple, it will cause problems in the team." Akashi said.

I rolled my eyes and said, "Akashi, shut up."

"I've said it a long time ago, senior sister won't want to hear such a boring game."

You think I'm a guy with a cane and I'd love to hear about your basketball history? Fuck.But Aomine and Heizi who came to see me a few times behaved very problematically, I can no longer find the smiles on their faces at that time, and I am more concerned about this matter.I picked up the remote control of the air conditioner, held my head and pressed the air conditioner switch.

It's July again.

"I don't want to play chess with you." Then chat.Of course Akashi doesn't come as many as the women's basketball team, but he comes twice a month to play chess and chat with me.

"Has even senior sister lost her confidence?"

I half-paralyzed on the sofa like a dead fish, picked up an apple and took a bite, "Are you bullying again?" Does it mean that he has disabled many people already?

Akashi lowered his head and laughed, "Tetsuya's eyes seem to say so, although, I don't think I did anything wrong."

I raised my eyebrows.

"Does senior sister have any opinion on me?"

"No." I half clenched my fist at the head, covered my mouth and yawned, "Forget it." I'm not them, and I'm not in a position where I can say whatever I want.I don't even like people talking casually to my team.

"That's good." Akashi smiled slightly, "Neither Tetsu, nor senior sister, not even my parents, those who oppose me, I will not just let it go so easily." He obviously still Smile, but there is a very strange feeling.

──hello.

I twitched the corner of my mouth lightly.I really like Akashi, the junior of the student union. I ask myself that I pay attention to him the most among all the juniors, but I really don't remember when he became more and more strange.

While I was still thinking about it, Akashi had already changed the topic: "Sister, would you be more interested in this?" He brought me a book, and changed back to his gentle appearance, like the middle school two just now Terminally ill is not like him.

"Thank you." I sat up, took a look at it, and didn't continue the topic just now, "Translated works. Is there an original version?" If the translation is not good, it will easily lose the flavor of the original work. I try to read the original version as much as possible. .Of course, for the original texts in French, Greek, etc., I'll just look at the translations.

"I remember that senior sister learned German." Akashi was really prepared and showed me the original document.

"...I just learned it recently." It was checked off for me.

"Sorry, I equated my sister's learning speed with mine."

"Die." Precisely throwing the apple core into the trash can and wiping my hands, I turned to bite the lollipop given to me by my women's basketball teammate, and fastened on the bowknot given to me by my classmate Yuka Ota who sat next to me for two years , Stretched again, spread out on the sofa, fiddling with the condolence items from all parties.

Akashi lowered his head and laughed again, then stood up and held out his hand to me, "Sister, shall I go out with you for a walk? People will become very strange if they stay in the room all the time."

"If you want to mock my lollipops and bows, you can just say so."

"No, that's not what it means. Please don't get me wrong. It's just that you've been weirder recently."

──More?

"Sister?" He stretched out his hand to me, but he didn't intend to take it back.

I had no choice but to sit up and took the crutches beside me, but Akashi bent down and took them away, and only stretched out his hands to me, "Senior sister's recent recovery progress has slowed down. Leaning on foreign objects will make the You are getting weaker, it is better for you to be more vigilant."

"Akashi," I looked up at the hand he continued to extend to me, he didn't pull me up, but he didn't take it back, "Speak clearly."

"My meaning has been made very clear, if you don't understand it yourself. I will never bend down to pull you up. I didn't intend to do this. So, do you want to hand over your hand? "

I sighed, "Thank you." I took his hand and stood up, using my strength to stand upright, but my feet were still numb and I fell down.Akashi tried his best to support me, but then helped me to sit down, and put his hands in the same position again.I took his hand, stood up again, and fell again.We repeated this set of actions for half an hour before we stopped. "Sorry." I actually skipped physical therapy today.

"It's good to know the mistakes and correct them, at least for you, that's right." Akashi helped me sit down, "Then, I'll go first, senior sister, please stay. Goodbye."

I smiled.Thanks.I turned my head and wiped the sweat from my forehead with my sleeve, let out a breath, took a short break, took the book left on the coffee table, and started to study by myself.It is no longer possible for me to play professional basketball, my feet are permanently disabled, and I have no other talents. All I have left is to study hard.I didn't want to be trash.

When Ichikawa Asahi came to see me, he packed a lot of things as usual.I held my head to look at the things on the table, picked and picked, and finally picked up a little bear.

"Don't like this kind of thing," Ichikawa obviously bought it for me, but at the moment she is looking at the raging blue veins, "It's funny or something, tsk. Also, what kind of expression do you despise me? Don't follow me The more familiar people are, the worse they will be, fuck!"

I thought about it, picked up a lollipop, tilted my head, "I don't understand what you're talking about."

"……Hold."

"Don't say it's useless. Speaking of you," I looked at the high school uniform on Ichikawa's body, "it's too old-fashioned." Her uniform skirt was knee-length, and the waist of the shirt was not trimmed, dangling loosely, The bun on the back of the head was as messy as ever, and it didn't look like a high school girl at all.

"This kind of boring thing is fine anyway." She looked at me, then suddenly raised her hand to loosen her own bun, and handed me the hair tie, "Tie your hair up too, it looks so boring ah."

"Thank you." My country's short hair was as long as my shoulders when I was in my second year, and now it is almost waist-length. I casually tied the hair at the back of my head in a low position, "Do you have time to go out with me recently? "I want to clean myself up.

"...Going out?" Ichikawa froze for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Of course! Should I call Kami Satomi and Yuki? They know a lot of good places to eat."

──Are you a foodie?

"Don't call Ikeuchi and Gaojing, I'm not a foodie."

"...Don't make fun of it like nothing happened!"

I laughed, "Just kidding. It's just that there are too many people, it's not convenient." I pointed to the crutches, "I'll trouble you too."

Ichikawa patted his chest and said, "Leave it on me! Any day is fine, you decide!"

I glanced at her, "Don't you need to practice basketball?"

Ichikawa was quiet for a while before answering: "It's okay to practice less for a day and a half."

I looked up at her.At the beginning, people who came to visit me would be scruples and would not talk about basketball in front of me, but gradually they let go.Ichikawa kept telling me about going to play today, but didn't mention basketball, which is not normal for her.

"Fuck! Don't look at me like that...there are some really annoying people on the team right now."

"Do you want to consider pushing that person away?"

"...I didn't want to be so cruel! Sudden blackening or something, is this really okay! Aren't we in the channel of youth high school girls?" Ichikawa Asahi suddenly went crazy, grabbing the desktop with one hand , Grabbing and scratching, "His Highness Takahashi, let's go buy bears! Don't try to destroy the world!!! I'll buy cotton candy for you to eat, Sakura!"

──Marshmallow?

"I'm not a friend of the person you hate, all I care about is you, and I'm only joking. Also, trying to destroy the world is too idiotic for me to do."

Ichikawa Asahi stared at me for a moment, then said, "...Suddenly I feel a bit like Akashi."

"No, this sentence," I looked at Ichikawa seriously, "is really too much."

"...You're complaining again." Ichikawa said with an expression as if he was about to die.

I rolled my eyes, "Just kidding, I just don't think being a good person will make you feel bad. The other party must have done something too much." Generally speaking, Ichikawa's resistance to attack is MAX." In this way, you will not fight back, and you will be the one who has an accident in the end. Extruding the team is just my casual saying, you can choose to turn the enemy into a friend, or at least to the extent that it does not hinder you from playing basketball on the team. I don’t want to You have done things too much. Ichikawa, when you think about someone who treats you badly, the other person also becomes stronger when you are decadent."

"You know, I didn't want to participate in the basketball club, I'm not you! But..." Ichikawa Asahi's complexion darkened.

However, the previous team is too familiar, and now it is a bit difficult to adapt to the new environment.In fact, we didn't have much fun when we were in Diguang at the beginning. She even fought with the third army when she was in the second army.

"Give me some time." I patted her on the shoulder and smiled, "I've come here before, you can do it."

"...Got it!" Ichikawa picked up his schoolbag and jumped up, "I went to play basketball, fuck, I actually skipped training today. I'll go shopping with you next week!" Then he ran towards the sunset up.

I smiled and waved to her, then turned around and continued to study by myself.

A week later, Ichikawa Asahi carefully helped me to go shopping together and bought a big bag of spoils.It was only then that I realized that Ichikawa is very similar to an old woman... Her only requirement for clothes is comfort, and she doesn't choose styles at all.I smiled and deliberately bought a lot of ladylike things. Ichikawa, who was excited to go shopping with me, squatted aside with a distorted face.I think comfort is the most important thing, but I never said that I am not picky about styles, it’s just that sometimes I get lazy and mess up my clothes. Do you really think I am a basketball girl like Ichikawa?

When I leaned on my crutches and wanted to play with the bear machine, Ichikawa ran over frantically and supported me in fear.

"Calm down with a cane!" she roared angrily.

I shrugged.

In the afternoon, I remembered that Akashi had said that they had a game today, so I asked Ichikawa if he wanted to watch it together.

"Akashi didn't ask you to see it, did he?" Ichikawa frowned, not wanting me to go.

"I didn't even tell me not to go." I raised my eyebrows, "What's wrong with you?"

She looked at me, "I remember that you seem to be very familiar with Aomine Dahui and Hei Zizhe?"

"It's considered to be acquaintance." Anyway, I have traveled through time, and I have seen them recently. I vaguely guessed what Ichikawa wanted to say, "What's wrong?"

"They are very different from before, don't be intimidated after you watch their games."

"I noticed it." I smiled, "I didn't expect so many things to be different just after half a year. To be honest, it's not easy to get used to, because for me I just slept." Chu The reason why everyone became silent when we met, I didn't get so blind that I didn't know.

"...Don't be like this! This style of painting is not suitable for you!"

"Huh?" I held my forehead, "What's the matter with me?" My condition is not good, which is why I see less of my old classmates, but I'm not very surprised.However, Ichikawa's eyes suddenly turned red. "Sorry." It's better to apologize honestly.

"If you say it, never apologize to me, fuck." Ichikawa Asahi turned his face away.

At Ichikawa Asahi's insistence, I called Akashi to check if he would welcome me over.

"Senior is coming..." Akashi laughed, "It's nothing good or bad, is it?"

"Hmm." I twitched the corner of my mouth.It was a public place, and I don't understand why I had to tell Akashi, "Come on."

"Since I mentioned it, let me ask you a question. Are you mentally prepared for this? The entire venue will be filled with Diguang students, and the second and third graders will recognize you."

I paused, "I won't come to say hello to you." I don't want to meet people I know.

"No, if you want to come, please come here in a fair manner. I am very honored that you are interested in watching. Senior sister, please come and say hello to us. I think that the students of Diguang will come to witness another scene of ours when they see you. Victory, too, will be happy. However," Akashi's voice is actually pretty nice, clear and elegant, but somehow it feels a bit weird to be used by him, "If you don't want to, please don't come. "

"I said you," my face turned cold, "are you meddling in your own business?"

"I said I hope you don't come like this, but you don't want to come like this, do you understand?"

I was quiet, "Sorry, I can't control my emotions." I shouldn't have lost his temper.

"I didn't intend to interfere with the senior sister's affairs, but it would be better for you to listen to me. This is a fact. In fact, I don't care about you, and I only remind you once."

I twitched the corner of my mouth.I must have been scolded, but his tone didn't mean to scold at all. "I was wrong, sorry."

"That's good, thank you senior sister for your understanding."

After hanging up, I looked at the phone for a long time.

"Sakura?" Ichikawa called me.

"Do you think Akashi is different?" I asked.I was at fault, based on my friendship with Akashi, it is not too much for him to mention me casually, but Akashi... I always feel that he has an indescribable sense of disharmony.

"Akashi?" Ichikawa helped me to sit on the side, and sat beside me himself, "In terms of basketball, I think the whole men's basketball team is different. It used to be towards victory, but since we left this year , they seem to really become meaningless to anything other than winning." She leaned back in her chair, "I don't hate the idea of ​​winning, and I don't go out there to lose. But, watching them play, it makes People feel uncomfortable."

I put away my phone, held my crutches and rested my chin, "Don't you think Akashi is different in other respects?"

"Let's put it this way, those boys look different than before. Even if they knew each other before, I have no intention of saying hello to them when I meet them on the road. I don't know who called them first , Akashi, Aomine, Midorima, Murasakihara, and Kise are called "Generation of Miracles", and Kuroko is the sixth person of Phantom. But Akashi is different from the others. He is still the same as before. Everyone says that he It's a pity not to be the president of the student union. He is so popular in school that you are the only one who can compare to him. You suddenly... the internal inheritance of the student union was broken for a while, and it was Akasken who became the vice president, so the school activities went on as usual .”

I crossed my arms and said, "He doesn't care." If Akashi wanted to manage it, he would do it better than me. "In this way, his gentle skin has not changed."

Ichikawa's face twisted, "What kind of skin. I don't think he is a bad guy. I can tell by the way he leads the team. But I don't think it's just skin. He just has self-confidence and reason. He is indeed super-good, he is also low-key, polite and considerate to others. He is very good, yes, you said that before, and you like him as much as everyone else. Change? I think he It's just that he's a little older now, and he has more leadership qualities. You've said it all," Ichikawa Asahi said with a sad expression, "It's been half a year since you guys have seen each other."

"...I don't think we're talking about the same person." It's not that Akashi isn't good, but...it's a bit weird.If I want to say what is different, I can’t say it specifically. He was actually a bit of a dick before. Hey, when it comes to basketball, Akashi will become less like a sister and brother. Now it’s just more... Speaking of it, recently He never used honorifics for me again.

"It's almost time, isn't it?" Ichikawa Asahi helped me up, "If you want to watch the game, you have to leave now."

"Well, thank you." Ichikawa never worked with Akashi, and I couldn't tell her.

"Kuroko's Basketball", I remember correctly, is the story of Kuroko helping his teammates find their love for basketball, but I haven't watched Akashi's part, so I don't know how he picks up the scissors.Well, since it's a plot, the ending should be a happy ending for Heizi.Forget it, I'm too busy to take care of myself, so I'd better keep my mind off my own business.

──This kind of manga doesn't kill people.

It wasn't until I actually saw the basketball of the Miracle Generation that I realized that I underestimated this matter too much.

"Eighty to zero! Diguang Middle School has already scored [-] points! This is another record-breaking game. There has never been a top [-] match with such a score!" The reporter reported excitedly Score on the field.

too exaggerated.

"Look," Ichikawa held the booty we just went shopping with a accustomed expression on his face, "These people are simply monsters." The overwhelming power beyond common sense has reached the level of almost terror.

The Teiguang boys on the court threw the ball into the hoop with a cold face. They didn't even need to pass the ball. They could play the whole court by themselves and score with just one shot.Even the expressions of Qingfeng and Heizi are the same.Their opponents were already numb, just standing on the field without moving.

It was a one-sided massacre.

Many viewers are discussing Diguang's technology, and no one thinks that Diguang has the possibility of losing.It is said to be a competition, but it is actually just a performance by Teiko.But no matter how good their skills are, people in the industry can tell at a glance that Diguang's people play super casually, and no one is serious.I frowned.I don't like this kind of basketball.

During the intermission, I stood up, walked out of the field alone under Ichikawa's understanding, washed my face in the bathroom, and calmed down.I thought it was wrong. The difference in talent already exists. If the strength of the two sides is so different, it can't be taken seriously.

As long as they meet a good opponent, they will...

I am reminded of the old Diguang women's basketball team.Saki type's victory, and the twisted environment that took the little girl's life.

I patted my face with water.No, I think too much.

I smiled, turned off the faucet, and went out with my crutches, only to see Akashi waiting outside.

The author has something to say:
