[Net King Black Basket] Rebirth: Hunting the Iceberg Goddess

One of the most hopeless and powerless things in life is when the things you expect so much never turn out the way you expect them to.

For Baili now, this "thing" is Tezuka Kunimitsu.

The quarter-finals between Qingxue and Bingdi will come soon. On the other hand, the ih match is also at the end. Baili has been busy with Qingxue's affairs recently, and has not paid too much attention to Qingfeng's match. It is the same this time , after simply wishing each other's school the victory, Baili left home first and headed for the competition venue.

Because of the convenience of his position, Baili got the list of the two sides' confrontation long before the start of the game.Echizen Ryoma did exactly what she expected, he faced Atobe as a single player, and Tezuka's opponent...

Baili stared at the name "Takahiro Huadi", and it took him a long time to recall who that person was.

It's not that Baili doesn't know what this person looks like, but he has been following Atobe, no matter what the gorgeous young master says, he will nod in agreement, just like Atobe's most loyal servant, trying to be ignored are very difficult.It was only at this moment that Baili realized that even though she remembered the boy's appearance, she had no idea what the boy's name was.

The sense of existence is so clear and low, Baili really doesn't know what words she should use to evaluate Huadi.

But soon the girl realized that people who gave her a headache and made her wonder how to evaluate them often brought her unexpected troubles.

But this time Huadi brought not only troubles in Baili's eyes, but also an accident that caused Tezuka to struggle hard.

In the group of top players, it is difficult to see players who use "imitation of others" as their trump card. After all, players at this level are all dragons and phoenixes. They have talents that ordinary people do not have, and endure pain that ordinary people cannot bear. They also have a pride that is not easy to appear in ordinary people. Maybe they will extract and learn the most suitable part from other people's skills, but complete "imitation" is undoubtedly a kind of self-denial for them, a kind that cannot be allowed to exist. thing.

In low-level or youth tennis matches, there are many players who are good at imitating. Judging from their own talents and skills, a player like Huadi who can imitate the opponent almost perfectly is undoubtedly a master.

Baili doesn't appreciate this tennis philosophy, but she has to admit... Tezuka is in trouble.

This is not the same as Atobe's match. After all, Atobe is Atobe. He has his own style and skills, as well as specific shortcomings and shortcomings. If Tezuka's shoulders are not dragged down, Atobe is impossible. Win over Tezuka's.

But now Tezuka's opponent... is indeed himself.

And people cannot defeat the same self.

Just like last time, Baili stood on the sidelines, tightly holding on to the handrail of the railing.She only had Tezuka in her eyes, but her mood was no longer the same as last time.

At that time, she felt angry, terrified, and heartbroken, but this time, she only felt a deep helplessness, and a dumbfounding feeling that her fate could never be controlled by herself.

Tezuka Kunimitsu heard her wish, didn't she? She hoped that he would always win and never lose, but more hoped that he would always be healthy and stay away from injuries. He was dragged down by old injuries in his youth.

Unfortunately, things never go as smoothly as expected.

The game between Tezuka and Huadi gradually fell into a heart-stopping stalemate. As long as Tezuka used some tricks, Huadi would quickly learn that trick and use it against Tezuka in turn.

Under such circumstances, the boy can only give up showing his secret stunts, and can only use tricks that both sides know, and engage in this tug-of-war with Huadi in a state of anxiety.

Baili who was standing by the railing occasionally looked distractedly at Atobe who was sitting on the sidelines, and every time he could see the same pride on his face.The King of the Ice Empress seems to be very satisfied with the tactics he has appointed - he really should be, shouldn't he?He didn't even make a move himself, he cornered the minister of Qingxue.

Atobe just set up a mirror for Tezuka, and the rest is all Tezuka's own choice.

Baili didn't know her mood at the moment. She knew that Tezuka would win the game, but she could only predict the final result, but not the middle process.

And after the match was really over, Baili finally realized that what made Tezuka win the match was not his technique, nor the legendary Three Gates of Selfless Realm, nor any other human-controllable things.

What allowed Tezuka to escape smoothly was something that cannot be changed by manpower... the weather.

If it hadn't been for the heavy rain at the end, maybe the team members of Seigaku would be able to say goodbye to Tezuka at the airport again!

Kawachi may be able to imitate all of Tezuka's skills, but no matter how subtle the "imitation" is, it will not be able to achieve the original effect. He absolutely cannot replicate Tezuka's moves 100%.After all, there is a big gap between the two in terms of absolute strength. It is absolutely impossible for Huadi to return the spin and landing that Tezuka can hit.

But Tezuka's match...it was too ugly to win.

When it started to rain, Baili, who had been hanging on her heart, finally relaxed. After all, she also knows tennis. How much non-human factors such as rain can affect the flight route of tennis, she is the same as those players. clear.

The mirror erected in front of Tezuka was about to be shattered by the heavy rain.

But when Baili finally relaxed, at the moment when the panic and tension in her heart finally dissipated, a more vivid emotion soon filled her heart, which was resentment and dissatisfaction, that was anxiety and upset, It was after the dust settled, she finally burst out belatedly, dissatisfied with Ozuka's leaving.

That boy, her male god, the guy she has been thinking about "saving", seems to... never remember her cry from the bottom of her heart.

But shouldn't this be the case?Maybe she should understand Tezuka, shouldn't she?The man only had victory in his eyes, even if he had promised Baili an oath, those promises would soon be forgotten by him when it was time for a real swordsmanship match.

He can also say that he was forced to be helpless. He is the head of Qingxue, the pillar and glory of Qingxue. Behind him stands the cowardly members. He will never let cowardly behavior appear on him, so he He can't retreat, he can only move forward—even if he bets on the gambling table, Baili has emphasized countless times: health.

This is an irreconcilable contradiction between them. Baili even felt that the reason for her anger was not only Tezuka's behavior in the game, but also...annoyed that she could not find the best solution for Tezuka in the dilemma. Excellent option.

The quarter-finals were terminated due to heavy rain, and everyone returned to the school ahead of schedule. Once again, after the minister and the deputy minister had dealt with all the miscellaneous matters, Baili appeared outside the activity room of the tennis department with a serious expression on his face. Tezuka was stopped.

Baili didn't speak, she just pursed her lips tightly and looked at Tezuka with a gloomy expression. The silence between the two gradually spread, and they could only hear the continuous and huge rain outside the corridor.

The one who broke this deathly silence was Tezuka.

"I know what you're going to say."

"This game... I won, that's enough."

After Tezuka finished speaking, there was another unbearable silence between the two of them. Baili still stood there maintaining the previous posture, her body was as stiff as an ancient stone sculpture that had already begun to weather, and even her eyes had an inorganic Bio-like cold.She just stood there with her arms crossed, that was her instinctive move, and she knew what such body language meant.

This is undoubtedly a kind of self-protection, she is guarding against Tezuka, because she knows better than anyone that what will happen next... will definitely hurt her.

The difference is just the size of the damage.

"Bai Ze, I don't want to discuss this issue with you."

"Some things cannot be changed by one's will. I will not give up the game, so—"

When hearing these words, Baili felt a sense of helplessness and powerlessness in his heart.She knew, she knew that Tezuka would say such a thing, after all, isn't this the cruel and ruthless fact?

She wanted Tezuka to stay away from injuries, but if it meant Tezuka had to avoid every tug of war... Tezuka would never agree.

It is even said that the man who has been standing on the stone altar has long been prepared and is willing to sacrifice everything for Qingxue's victory at any time.

Baili couldn't understand Tezuka's thoughts, at least not now.But the sad and ridiculous thing is that she can't find any way to improve this situation. Tezuka seems to have fallen into a fateful cycle this summer. He didn't play a few games at all, but just in In these few games, he encountered all kinds of well-designed "tug-of-war" time and time again.

After another unbearable silence, Baili finally spoke leisurely, but there was an extreme calmness in her voice that she had never expected.

Her voice is not sweet and light at all, her voice sounds like the cold rain outside the window, falling overwhelmingly, they will penetrate your clothes, and the cold breath will corrode your body pervasively.

"Ha, look, you really said that."

"I want you to stay healthy, but I ignore your desire for victory—you must think I'm being unreasonable, right, embarrassing you with such an unsolvable problem?"

"No, it's not—"

Tezuka's voice was a bit sharp, but Baili didn't give him a chance to continue.The girl just changed her standing position, brushed the broken hair next to her ear, and continued in an innocent, pure, but emotionless voice like a machine.

"I'm too self-righteous, I'm sorry, Guoguang."

After saying this, Baili suddenly turned around and walked out. She only felt that her chest was blocked and uncomfortable, and there was a scorching flame burning there. If she didn't walk faster, faster, That group of flames would jump up from the bottom of her heart, burning her heart into a deserted ruin.

She walked too fast, hastily and single-mindedly, Tezuka seemed to catch up, she seemed to feel the boy's hand grabbing her arm, and she seemed to hear him calling her name, but she didn't stop She just desperately threw off the shackles of unknown existence, like a desperate traveler on the edge of a cliff, jumping into the endless rain.

Baili only felt that her heart was beating so fast, so fast that she could almost feel her whole body trembling, she ran like a demon in the pouring rain, until it seemed that only her was left in the whole world Alone, the girl slowly, slowly stopped.

She is so stupid isn't she?She is really... too embarrassed, isn't she?

Wiping off the rain on his face, Baili turned around and walked to a nearby building, took out a pack of tissues from his satchel, and began to tidy up his poor appearance.When she finally dried her hair, the familiar vibration appeared again.

This time Baili figured out what it was, it wasn't her violent heartbeat, it was just... her cell phone.

After glancing at the caller's name, the girl's eyes stayed on the missed call sign for half a second, then took a deep breath expressionlessly, adjusted her mood to the best state, and pressed answer.

Maybe the missed call was from Tezuka, maybe... that boy never thought of calling Baili, isn't he just like that?Not to mention, Baili just pissed him off.

But the current call is from Momoi, and Baili must face it with the most normal attitude.

"May, what's the matter?"

The sound of the rain made the voice on the other end of the phone seem a bit ethereal, and it took Baili several seconds to distinguish a voice that frightened her from the noise.

Momoi didn't speak, and what was faithfully transmitted to Baili's ears through the radio waves was her low... sobs.

--What happened? !

"what happened?"

Baili couldn't help raising her voice at this moment, besides Aomine and Tezuka, Momoi was the first friend she made after rebirth, and now Momoi called with a crying voice, it's really...

"You didn't cry, what happened?"

There was no answer on the other end of the phone, and Baili couldn't help but continued to ask anxiously.

"... Dahui, he...he must hate me!"

Hey? !

"Today's game...I didn't let him play, he was very angry...we...we..."

Momoi on the other end of the phone kept whimpering and crying, and even spoke intermittently, Baili just listened carelessly, and his heart sank heavily.

Did her cheap brother not play today?There was no sign of it before...

Such a thing, for someone as proud and arrogant as Aomine...

"Where are you now? I'll go find you right away."

The author has something to say: Seriously, I have a relatively complete timeline of Wang Wang, but the black basket... I really cry if I talk too much.

However, there are not many famous rains in these two comics. The match between Tezuka and Huadi and the quarrel between Momoi and Aomine basically happened in the same time period, so I simply wrote these two things. On the same day_(:3」∠)_

ps: Not surprisingly, Wai Akashi will be launched in the next chapter ＿(:3」∠)＿
