Song of Light and Shadow

"Well, what's the matter?" Heizi felt a little at a loss for the person who claimed to be the founder.

"Huh? Ah...it's okay." Muji threw a piece of candy into his mouth.

"Oh, yes." Then what are you here for?Heizi complained in his heart with a blank face.

"Well, but I will be discharged from the hospital next week and go back to school, so I will take a look first, say hello, and then find that the boy who thought he was in trouble is playing basketball here." Muji looked at Heizi and blinked. Then he stared at Heizi with a look similar to "That's it", "However, it's impossible to know what troubles you have."

Heizi felt that it was the first time he took a person without a fight.What on earth is he trying to say?

"Well, but that's not the case. You are quite interesting and worth looking forward to." Muji touched his chin and said, "Although basketball is a good sport that can only be played by all-round players, it is not ruled out. There are players who are good at stunts. Generally speaking, the bigger the coverage area of ​​a person's ability, the better, but it's almost impossible, haha, otherwise why would five people fight five people, 1v5 forget it... far away It’s gone.” Muji pretended to cough, and looked at Heizi again, “However, extreme players like you are really rare, and it’s truly amazing that you can so thoroughly exert an ability to the maximum limit. Admiration, maybe he is a genius of another kind. But..."

Muji sighed with emotion, and then begged Heizi to pass. Heizi looked at the ball in his hand, and then threw it to Muji.

Muji glanced at the basket, twirled the ball in his hand, then put himself in a good position, made a shot, and as the ball dropped his hand and drew a parabola towards the basket, Muji's voice became a little low: "This is already the limit, You must come to such a conclusion.”

Seeing that the basketball just hit the rim, Muji clicked his tongue and complained in a low voice that he hadn't practiced for a long time, and then he looked at Heizi and continued: "It's a good thing to be able to look at yourself objectively, but It’s not good to be too objective. Besides, we’re all just high school students. Wouldn’t it be good to have more expectations for our own possibilities? Although there may have been various hurtful situations in the past, we are now Still live in the moment. If you fall down, you can just get up, and you don’t need to be afraid. More self-confidence, low self-esteem, etc., are not suitable for you.”

Seeing Heizi's dazed expression, Muji curled the corners of his mouth handsomely, then turned around, shook his hands and walked towards the door, "It looks like I'm talking to myself. See you next week, Heizi."

Heizi looked at Muji's back, fell silent for a moment, and then said, "That... I stepped on sugar."

Muji only heard a click, and then realized that he stepped on the candy that was thrown aside at some point.Then he mourned for a while, and left leisurely.

Heizi stood blankly in the empty basketball court for a while, then turned to look at the high basketball hoop, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, Vulcan just hung up Hinata's phone.

Although he really wanted to go to the basketball club quickly, but he couldn't do it now, he needed to thoroughly consider the path he was going to take in the future.

Thinking of the conversation between Kise and Heizi that day, Kagami's heart twitched.

Regret, annoyance, and unwillingness all came out. If he was strong enough to beat Qingfeng, Heizi wouldn't need to fulfill that promise... It's all because he is too weak...

He slammed his fist hard on the ground and made a muffled sound. Vulcan closed his eyes, leaned his head against the wall, and stared at the ceiling.Vulcan was a little dazed.Originally, if he won this match, he planned to confess his love to Heizi, but now it seems that he is still not enough to be worthy of Heizi...

"To become stronger..." muttering to himself, Vulcan clenched his fist tightly and did not let go for a long time.

A week later.

When Vulcan walked into the basketball hall, everyone was a little surprised.

"Vulcan, are your feet alright?" Yiyue asked while looking at Vulcan moving his body while dribbling the ball.

"Well, it's okay." Vulcan replied calmly.

"I said you came to practice since your feet are fine, and you haven't come for so long, what happened?" Hinata was still brooding over the incident that Vulcan hung up on his phone last week.

Vulcan thought for a while, lowered his head slightly and said, "...I'm sorry"

Hinata was a little baffled by Vulcan's sudden and hungry attitude, but he didn't know how to deal with it. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice at the door that he hadn't heard for a long time.

"Okay."

Lizi turned her head in surprise when she heard the voice, but she was startled by the person before she could speak.

"Then, let's start training."

It was Muji Wubu who came.But the strange thing is that he is actually wearing the uniform of the official game.

As a result, all the team members were completely speechless by Muji's 'surprise'.

"Well, long time no see... Muji..." Tsuchida greeted Muji weakly.

"Yes!" Muji nodded affirmatively.

"It's a shit! I said why are you wearing a proper competition suit! This is just training!" Hyuga frowned.

"After all, it's a long-lost training session. I'm super excited now." Muji said with a handsome face, and it seemed that he didn't feel excited at all.

"Yeah, your sister! Are you really motivated to train hard?! Go and change for me!" Hinata's glasses burst in anger, and then dragged Muji back to the locker room without saying a word.

After changing their clothes, Muji and Hinata returned to the basketball court, and then started a new self-introduction.

"Muyoshi Teppei, 193 centimeters, 81 kilograms, the position is a center forward, please give me your advice."

"Tieping, are you feeling better now?" Lizi leaned over to look at Muji's feet.

"Yeah, there's no problem at all." Muji replied affirmatively, "And, during the hospitalization, I didn't do nothing."

"Oh?! Is there anything new?" Yiyue asked.

Muji nodded, and replied in a very serious tone: "I can play Huaza."

"It's fun." Muji added.

"Hey, I said this has nothing to do with basketball!!" Hinata frowned again.

"Well! It's completely irrelevant." Muji didn't deny it, but continued: "Then, there are still some things that must be said. I said it when I was in the Ministry of Construction. Since the short three-year high school life has to be hard work, I have to You have to put in the right to fight, of course the goal is!"

Suddenly, Muji opened his mouth, was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "That place!"

The audience fell silent for the third time.

"Huh?!" Then everyone burst into doubt.

"Where is the place where i·h is held?" Muji blinked and asked with pure eyes.

"It will change every year! And we have already lost!! Now the goal is the winter trials!!" Hyuga was so angry that it was like cutting Muji into pieces.

"That's it..." Muji nodded affirmatively, then looked up at Hinata and asked shamelessly, "Where is the winter competition this year?"

"It's the same every winter!! It's in Tokyo!!" Hinata felt like he was going crazy.

"Well," Muji didn't care about Hinata's fury, and said with a natural optimistic look: "Anyway, since we are going to climb up, we have to reach the top! But we can't let go of the scenery along the way. ah."

Seeing Kiyoshi's upbeat look, Hinata sighed.

"What's wrong?" Yi Yue wondered.

"It's nothing, I just feel that Muji hasn't changed at all. It's just an arrow, he does whatever he thinks of, and he doesn't think about the consequences at all."

"Haha..." Yi Yue felt that Hinata's description was very appropriate.

"Okay, now that Muji is here, let's start the mini game." Reiko blew the whistle.

Heizi walked to Vulcan's side, but Vulcan turned his head away, turned away from Heizi, and motioned for Tsuchida to pass the ball.

Tsuchida glanced at Heizi, a little puzzled, but still passed the ball to Vulcan.

Vulcan looked at the defender in front of him, his eyes suddenly became a little strange, and then suddenly dribbled and began to break through, almost breaking through two defenders alone.

Seeing this, Yiyue immediately made up and intercepted with Jiangqi, but Vulcan jumped up almost regardless, knocked Yiyue and Jiangqi away, and poured the ball into the basket.

"Offensive foul!" Lizi blew the whistle and said angrily: "What are you doing, Vulcan Lord!! You are so messy! Look at the teammates around you more!"

Vulcan glanced at Reiko, ignored Reiko, turned and left alone.

Xiao Jinjing, who had just arrived at the basketball court, looked at Yiyue who got up from the ground and asked suspiciously: "Hey, what's going on with that? Are you overly nervous?"

"Xiao Jinjing, it's too late." Yiyue glanced at Xiao Jinjing and looked at Vulcan, and said with some doubts: "I don't know what happened to Vulcan. At first, I thought he was paying too much attention. , but I always feel that compared to before, there is something wrong with him...as soon as he gets the ball, he plays completely self-centered, just like when he first joined the team...not relying on his teammates at all."

Heizi stopped practicing, and felt a little sad when he saw Vulcan practicing shooting by himself.

Muji looked at Vulcan's appearance suspiciously, always feeling that he was different from what he saw in the video.

"Hey, Vulcan, do you want to listen to my proposal?" Muji stopped Vulcan who was about to go away. "I said, do you want to bet on the starting spot and come to 1on1?"

"What?" Not only Vulcan, but everyone froze in place.

"So, let's bet on the starting spot and come to 1on1." Muji repeated again earnestly.

"I won't show mercy." Vulcan stared at Muji and said coldly.

"Ah, no need." Muji said lightly and picked up the ball, "Come on."

Although he was opposed by various kinds, Muji still insisted on fighting the bullfight with Vulcan. Although there was a one-year blank period, it seemed that Muji didn't take this matter to heart.

Heizi looked at Muji and Vulcan's confrontation, and was a little puzzled. Although Muji did have a one-year blank period, when he was on the basketball court last time, Muji's movements were much better than now...

As expected, the final result was that Vulcan won.

However, there was no joy on Vulcan's face. He just said "yes" calmly, ignoring other people's feelings at all, walked out of the door, and said in a low voice: "Sorry, I'm going back first, everyone has worked hard gone."

Heizi looked at the closed door and stood there silently...
