[Black Basket] Early Winter

As time went by, Kise Ryota and Haga Mio met less and less after the WinterCup started.The club no longer conducts activities in an orderly manner as usual, but spends half of the time analyzing the opponent's strength, and then conducts targeted exercises.

Haichang, who is a national powerhouse, performed very well even in the WinterCup. They also appeared to be very relaxed when they reached the quarterfinals all the way.It's time to analyze the opponent's strength with the seniors again, watching the videos of the previous games in the multimedia classroom, Kise, who was originally very relaxed, suddenly stood up when he noticed the screen shown on the media machine.

Although the appearance is very different from that of junior high school, he is not unrecognizable. It is indeed a person with a lot of connections in junior high school-Shougo Haizaki.

Will be his opponent in the next game.

Hasn't he already given up on basketball?After observing the whole scene, Kise Ryota was obviously not as calm as before, even when the seniors called him, he seemed absent-minded.

Of course, Kise also paid the price for his distraction - Kasamatsu kicked him hard when Kise lost his focus.

Just as Kise Ryota was yelling at his seniors to bully him, there was a knock on the door of the multimedia classroom where everyone in the basketball club was.Coach Takeuchi said please come in, and everyone saw that the person who came was Genta Takeuchi's niece, Mio Haga.

The girl was very purposeful, she came in and made a gesture to everyone in the basketball club, then walked up to Coach Takeuchi and handed him the things in her hand.

And Kise Ryota, who was still a little out of shape a second ago, came back to life in an instant, and leaned over to the coach to ask what Haga Mio sent.

"Don't act like you haven't seen anything, anyway, I'll reward you when I'm training."

The coach didn't answer Kise very kindly, picked up the paper bag that Mio Haga handed over, and glanced at Ryota Kise.

"Coach, don't be so stingy! Anyway, sooner or later it will be given to us, so don't leave any suspense."

"There's nothing there, just some honey lemon slices." It was Haga Mio who spoke.

"Little Mio has been very supportive of the basketball club in the past, you guys should thank me anyway."

"Speaking of which, in the past, the coach did reward us during games. It turns out that Haga-senpai has always been our strong backing. I have decided that this time I will fight for you."

"You bastard, fight hard for Kaito!" Kasamatsu Yukio punched the weak Moriyama, and he didn't forget to thank Haga Mio hesitatingly.

After studying the playing style of the opponent's school, the members of the basketball team are also ready to continue training.Kise Ryota and Haga Mio, who were walking behind everyone, didn't talk too much. They haven't seen each other very much during this time, and the time they spend together is not as frequent as before. Kise feels like he hasn't seen Haga for a long time. .

The brown eyes glanced down slightly, the girl who was a head shorter than him suddenly yawned, and her face looked haggard.Haga Mio is the same as other female high school students, even if she comes to school, she will seriously dress up, but seeing Haga today, Kise felt that her complexion was abnormally white, not as rosy as before, even under the eyes. Faint cyan.

"Obaha...haven't had a rest lately, okay?"

"Ah...not at all, I have been reviewing for the past few days, so I haven't slept much."

"Girls staying up late is not good for their health. No matter what, the body is the first priority, and Xiao Yuhe must remember to exercise regularly."

...Why bring this up again.

Speaking of exercise, it was nothing more than Haga Mio's pain.I had agreed with Kise to go to morning exercises before, but it only lasted for a week or two. Later, either because Kise wanted to go home or because I needed to train, I put it on hold, and in the end, it didn't matter.

"It won't be like this until the holidays, but Kise-kun, you should also pay attention to your grades."

"...Xiao Yuhe, you don't need to remind me! Really QUQ!"

"Not much to say, Kise-kun, work hard on your training." Smiling at the blond boy, Haga Mio was about to turn around, when Kise suddenly grabbed her: "Xiao Yuga, come and watch my game." He He spoke suddenly.

"Huh? I don't know much about basketball, and I can't be a cheerleader, so forget it."

"It's okay, I just hope that Kohaga can see my handsome side!" For the next match, Kise Ryota didn't have any real feelings, and he invited Haga Mio to gain more courage.

As long as he is in front of her, he will try his best to do everything well.

——I will win the game beautifully in front of Kohaga.

Huang Lai wanted to say this sentence, but he stopped when the words came to his lips.For what reason, he himself could not say.

Facing that hopeful look, Haga Mio's cherry lips parted slightly, but she didn't say anything.

Being looked at by Kise like this, she really didn't know how to refuse.

"Isn't Kise-kun always showing his handsome side?" She didn't expect her to ask such a question.

"Eh?"

"I see, I'll see when the time comes."

"Really?"

"no sooner said than done."

"Then I won the contest, Kohaga, let me go on a date (*/ω＼*)."

"Kise-kun!"

"...I was wrong about you when I didn't say anything about TUT."

Facts have proved that it is impossible to take advantage of the fire and rob in front of Haga Mio.

On the day of the competition, Haga Mio’s schedule was to go out at noon to go to the dessert shop to work part-time, and then go directly to the WinterCup venue after the part-time job was over. The blessing of time.

It was a day off, and even if the dessert shop was near the school, the business was pretty good.

Ever since Haga Mio came here to work part-time, Sugiura Ayato would also come to help in her free time, but each time the time was not long, probably because studying at Beigao was too tight, but today, after Haga Mio came here I saw him, and he didn't leave until the end.

Sitting at the same table with Sugiura, the girl checked the time, and it was only 10 minutes until the end of the part-time job.

"Are you free after the part-time job is over?" Sugiura asked suddenly.

"Sorry, I already have an appointment." Smiling apologetically, Mio Haga saw a trace of disappointment flashing across Sugiura's face that rarely showed emotion.

"Hemiki or the future?"

"I just agreed to Kise-kun to watch his game."

"Are you dating?" Both of them looked quite calm, and Sugiura didn't have much emotional fluctuation when asking this sentence.

In the past, Haga Mio only made time for him.He knew that Haga Mio was not an enthusiastic person, and would always evade invitations from people around him, and would not pay any attention to them.

It is impossible for Sugiura not to think about spending time watching a ball game like this.

"No, I just agreed to see it."

"Then...he and I, who will you like?" Unexpectedly Sugiura Ayato would ask this, Haga Mio's eyes widened in surprise, she didn't remember mentioning that Kise liked her in front of Sugiura again Regarding the matter, these two people seem to have nothing to do with each other.

"To tell you the truth, you don't know, Ayato, just give up on me."

After leaving a word, Haga Mio got up and walked directly to the staff room.After changing the clothes on her body, the girl put on the windbreaker that was sent in the morning, tied her hair back into a ball head, put on her makeup and walked out of the room.

Walking through the passage connecting the hall and the room, Mio Haga walked past a table, and saw a girl sitting by the table touch the coffee on the table, and with the sound of the cups clinking, the coffee-colored liquid inside was spilled all over the place on her skirt.

On that beige dress, the splashed coffee was quite conspicuous, and the warmth conveyed to the skin through the clothes only gave Haga Mio a thought—it was not good.

The girl who came with the girl who caused trouble suddenly stood up, wiped Haga Mio's skirt with a handkerchief, and kept saying 'sorry'.

Even though the other party was sincerely apologizing, Mio Haga couldn't hold back the displeasure in her heart.It's not that she didn't see clearly just now, the other party did it on purpose, otherwise how could she spill the coffee so hard.

But no matter how unhappy I was, since she was an employee here, she couldn't vent it out, so I had to admit that I was unlucky and said 'it's okay'.

"You think it's okay, so what will Kise-kun think when you go to watch Kise-kun's game?" The girl who met the coffee raised her head and looked at Mio Haga, the corner of her mouth raised a haughty arc, the purpose was quite obvious.

...What about Kise Ryota again.

"Mizuki, don't be like this." The girl who apologized to Haga Mio hurriedly advised with an embarrassed expression on her face.

"Xiao Xia, I did it for you! Kise-kun dumped you because of this woman. I really don't know what makes this guy so likable."

While speaking, Sugiura Ayato had already walked over from their next table, but the girl's words reached his ears rather abruptly.

"If you have any doubts, wouldn't it be better to ask Kise-kun directly, instead of biting people here like a mad dog."

Just because a person is gentle doesn't mean she's easy to bully, especially for someone like Yuga who is soft but not tough.Glancing at the girl, Haga Mio dropped a sentence and was about to leave, but the girl picked up another cup of coffee on the table and poured it directly on Mio's sleeve.

Over that beige skirt was a gray trench coat, and now, something happened to the trench coat.

Seeing that things were going beyond imagination, Ayato Sugiura hurried over to stand between Haga and that girl, trying to persuade them to fight. Anyway, as a waiter in a dessert shop, even if it is reasonable, it is impossible to get angry at the customer .

But the girl didn't give up so easily, she still carried Mio Haga and Ryota Kise unyieldingly.

I thought that this kind of plot where a popular boy would get into trouble only appeared in TV dramas, but now that I have experienced it personally, Haga Mio really can't describe that feeling.The opponent has too many complaints, and I don't know where to complain.She really didn't know what to lose by troubling her in public like this except for being spilled coffee twice.

The erratic eyes of the people around looked at this side from time to time, Haga Mio's eyes fell on the girl who was persuaded by Sugiura, showing a rare ironic look, she said without giving in:

"Student, if you are dissatisfied with me, please don't disturb everyone's meal. Now I have important things to do, so I don't have time to deal with you."

"Hmph, are you going to watch Kise-kun's game in this dirty clothes?"

"I believe Kise-kun is not the kind of person who judges others by their clothes."

After leaving a word, Haga Mio turned and left.

After walking out of the dessert shop, she was like a leaking balloon, she lost all strength in an instant, and she looked quite depressed.It was only for herself that she said so much just now, but now, do you really want her to wear this suit to watch Kise Ryota's game?But if you run home to change, you don't have enough time!

Agreeing to go to Kise's game is just a trivial matter, but Haga Mio doesn't seem to have broken his promise.

Walking on the road, the situation was indeed as bad as she thought, and when she saw two glaring marks on her body, it was inevitable that they would discuss in a low voice.

... She didn't look so embarrassed as Kise Ryota saw.

That is the mentality that any girl has. No matter who she is facing, she does not want them to see this image.

In the warm-up stage before the game, Kise Ryota paid special attention to the auditorium, hoping to see the figure he was looking forward to.

But it's not as simple as he thought, how easy is it to find someone in the crowded auditorium?Even though Kise Ryota felt that he was sensitive to Haga Mio's presence, he couldn't see that girl.

On the phone, there was no reply email from him asking where the other party was.

Patiently making a call, the phone beeped rhythmically, and finally ended with the sweet female voice announcing that no one answered.

...Is there something wrong with Kohaga?Still, I don't want to watch his game.

Relying on his knowledge of Haga, Haga Mio is not a person who will casually release other people's pigeons. Even if he can't come, he will tell him the reason.

But... now the relationship between the two is not that simple, will Haga be very decisive when facing the boy who is chasing her?Just keep silent and stop watching his game?

Glancing around at the audience who were almost sitting there, Kise Ryota felt a little chill in his heart.

... Kohaga, do you really don't want to watch my game?

Looking down at the three words 'Obaga' displayed on the phone, Kise chuckled lightly, as if disappointed.

Suddenly feeling kicked on the waist, Kise Ryota almost lost his grip on the phone, but fortunately he reacted quickly to prevent the phone from falling to the ground.

"Senior Kasamatsu, what are you doing!" Crying and complaining to Yukio Kasamatsu, Kise's cute and stupid reaction at this time is far from the disappointed expression just now.

"It's all warmed up and you're still staring at your phone! Focus on the game."

"Because, because Xiao Yuhe didn't answer my call, and he hasn't come yet, and he clearly promised to watch the game."

"Could it be that you have worked so hard for a woman to watch your game? Instead of thinking about this kind of thing here, it's better to play a good game for me and make the other party regret not watching." Kasamatsu said viciously, He poked Kise's waist with his hand again.

Although Kasamatsu's words were indeed a little too much in Kise's mind, they also had a calming effect.

Why did he come here?Not because of Haga Mio, but because of love for basketball.

In today's game, even if Haga Mio let him go, he should face it seriously.
