Song of Light and Shadow

"Luma, did you see Zhe?" Aomine, who had just gotten up and breathed, scratched his belly and asked Midorima who was brushing his teeth.

After spitting out the toothpaste foam in his mouth, Midorima glanced at Aomine, and said calmly, "I don't know."

"Oh..." Qingfeng let out another breath, muttering, "Where did Zhe go?" and walked back to the room.

It's too rambling.

Midorima wiped off the water on his face with a towel, put on his glasses and looked up from the window in front of him.On the open-air basketball court in front of the shared house, Kuroko and Akashi were training.

Even if they won all the games in the first year, it was not easy to win. It can even be said that if there is no sunspot to disrupt the opponent's pace, it is very likely that Diguang will lose.

Maybe Akashi chose Kuroko for this purpose in the first place.

But that guy Kuroko can really stand the training menu that Akashi can accept.To some extent, that perseverance is indeed admirable.What's more, even after filling out the interest form, in the end, the position of Hei Zi was not fixed, so even if he played, it was difficult to record.Unlike volleyball, there is no free agent option, but the playing position will be added after the name of the player on the field.

For a player without a position, it means that he has truly become a transparent person. No matter how many assists and a very high pass success rate, they cannot be recorded as data on paper.

"I really love basketball like a fool." Midorima folded the towels into three neat stacks, held them in his hand, and walked back to his room.

However, in the afternoon, Akashi suddenly announced that Kuroko had officially joined the First Army, which stunned everyone.

"Isn't Heizi in the first army during the competition?" Midorima asked suspiciously.

Akashi looked at Aomine helplessly and said: "No, he participated in the competition as the second army. Moreover, if Kuroko played a very important role in this competition, the coach only admitted that Kuroko joined the first army .”

"Eh?! I always thought that Zhe was in the first army a long time ago. Because he usually trains with us..." Qingfeng said in the same surprise.

Akashi didn't say anything more, but looked at Haizaki and said, "Also, Haizaki. If there is another violent incident, I won't be polite."

"Hey... I see..." Haizaki said nonchalantly, he didn't seem to listen to Akashi's words.

I really don't understand why Akashi has repeatedly indulged Haizaki, even though he is indeed very capable, but this is not a reason to allow such violent elements to stay in the team.What's more, that kind of guy has done such unreasonable things to Heizi, even if he doesn't care about it, he still feels uncomfortable being in the same team with such a person.

"Hmm...Little Heizai, have you seen my potato chips?" Ziyuan, who had just scratched her hair and came to the basketball court at this moment, was a little unhappy.

"Murashihara, where did you go just now?" Midorima was very dissatisfied with Murasakihara's lazy attitude.

"Ah, that kind of thing is fine... I want to eat..." Ziyuan hung on Heizi's body like a child, and since he was much taller than Heizi, it looked particularly funny.

"Listen to what people say!" Luma said angrily.

"Okay, that's the end of today's training." The coach clapped his hands to signal everyone's attention, "Akashi-kun, Momoi-san and Zehei-kun stay here, and the others can disband."

Qingfeng cheered, and immediately ran to Heizi and hooked his shoulder and said, "Zhe, let's go play together."

However, Heizi took a slight step back, bowed to Qingfeng and said, "Although Qingfeng-kun has kindly invited me, I'm sorry, please allow me to refuse."

"Eh? Why? Isn't the training over already? And what's the meaning of your out-of-the-ordinary movements?" Qingfeng said dissatisfied.

"Because there are some things I want to do." Heizi said calmly.

"Well... alright." Qingfeng didn't say anything, and left alone bored.

Midorima had already begun to wrap the bandages.For the accuracy of pitching, the touch of fingertips is very important. Although I didn’t pay much attention to it at the beginning, I realized it because of Akashi’s point, so it’s not too late to protect it from now on.

"Mr. Green..."

However, when Midorima picked up the lucky iron water bottle and was about to leave, he suddenly heard Heizi's voice behind him, and was so frightened that he almost dropped the water bottle in his hand, and hurriedly picked it up two or three times before putting it away. The kettle catches it.

"Heizi..." Luma endured for a while before suppressing his anger, calmed down, pushed his glasses and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Well... there is one thing I want to ask Mr. Midori..."

Midorima felt that he must have a brain problem to agree to Heizi's request.

Because now Heizi was holding the ball panting, posing for the ball and throwing it towards the basket.

On the other hand, he pointed out Heizi's shooting posture.

Midorima felt that he must be crazy.

"I want to ask Mr. Lujian to teach me how to shoot." Heizi said, looking at him with his usual incomprehensible eyes.

"This kind of thing should be asked Akashi, not me." Midorima refused.Heizi's shooting or something is simply nonsense.Leaving aside his physical ability, it is very difficult to just look up at the basket.

"However, Akashi-kun refused to teach me how to shoot..." Heizi looked a bit depressed when he spoke.

"Then go to Qingfeng." Luma felt that no matter what, it was not his turn to teach Heizi.

"I don't want Aomine-kun to know." However, Heizi's answer was unexpected, "Also, if it was Lujian-kun who taught me, it should be easy to understand. After all, Lujian-kun seems to have a good mind. .”

Midorima stared at Kuroko's eyes, always felt that what Kuroko said just now sounded a bit awkward.

"Please." However, after Heizi bowed sincerely, he didn't know why he agreed inexplicably, and now he crossed his hands in front of his chest, standing at the three-point line, watching Heizi shoot again and again.

It's been two hours.

To be honest, Heizi's posture is not very bad, it can even be said to be very close to the standard, but he always feels a kind of disharmony in Heizi, which is not technical, but something more essential.However, he was not Akashi, so he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Heizi wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve, and his hand holding the ball was trembling, but he still insisted on throwing the ball, but unfortunately, his posture was all messed up, and he almost pushed it out with his palm.

Seeing that the goal was scored but it was obviously a dribble goal, Midorima couldn't bear it any longer and walked to Kuroko's side to stop his shot.

"Enough, give up. You are not suitable for shooting at all. First of all, your height is fatal to shooting. It is very difficult to find the shooting line from the bottom up. This is the problem of poor vision. In addition, you Talent in basketball is not enough to make up for poor vision, so it is impossible to shoot a basketball. If you have so much energy to practice shooting, you might as well take a good rest to recover your strength. The training menu Akashi gave you is already It's already very heavy. It's not good for your body if you join in the exercise casually. It will only drag down your training tomorrow. Although this has nothing to do with me, I wasted so much time because of your unreasonable request. Time. So, don’t vote anymore, go back and rest.” I never thought I would say so many words, but I should have expressed myself clearly. Although it may be a little harsh, as long as I can stop Heizi, who is almost There is no harm in self-abuse training.

Heizi looked at Midorima with difficulty with tired eyes that were about to close.After taking a few breaths, he suddenly said softly, "Why does Mr. Lujian play basketball?"

Midorima froze for a moment, suddenly being asked such a question caught him off guard.It should be said that even he himself didn't know how he felt.

"I like basketball, I like it very much. Does Midori-kun like basketball?" Heizi's nonsensical words made Midorima at a loss for words again. Like basketball or something... Do you play basketball because you like it?He doesn't know...

"It doesn't matter what this kind of thing is, but you, go back and rest quickly... Hey!" Midorima was a little agitated by Heizi's question, so he avoided the question and urged Heizi to go back to rest.However, Heizi suddenly fell forward without making a sound, and landed on him.

Subconsciously caught Heizi, seeing that Heizi was so tired that he lost consciousness.Midorima looked around, then sighed, looked down at Heizi who was already asleep, and said softly: "It's really messing around..."

Then while saying that it was forced by the situation, he had no choice but to pick up Heizi and walked towards the hotel.

Midorima felt a little awkward being so close to Kuroko for the first time.Moreover, Heizi's weight also surprised him, it was estimated that it was only about 160 kilograms.Although Heizi's height is indeed not high, just over [-] centimeters, as a boy, his weight is so light that one wonders if he has bones.

No wonder when Heizi throws the ball, no matter how much he reminds him to keep his center of gravity steady, Heizi will wobble the moment he picks it up.This is simply because of the low weight.I really don't know how this guy survived.I usually only think that he eats very little, but now that I think about it, it seems that he eats less than girls.Could it be that the stomach has suffered some damage?

Midorima didn't realize that all he was thinking about was Kuroko, and he woke up suddenly when Akashi's voice came from behind him.

"Midorima, I didn't allow you to teach Kuroko how to shoot." Akashi said in an uncharacteristically cold voice.

"It's just because he has been begging me to watch him throw the ball reluctantly, and he didn't teach anything." Midorima turned his head and looked at Akashi. After a short silence, he stared at Akashi's bright red pupils slightly. Puzzled, he asked, "Why don't you teach him how to shoot?"

"It's not necessary." Akashi replied very quickly, "It seems that tomorrow he needs to let him understand what his role in the team is... Also, take it." Saying that, Akashi put a small bottle On the body of Heizi who was being held by Luma, when walking past Luma, he said: "When Heizi wakes up, remember to let him drink."

Hearing the sound of footsteps getting further and further away from him, Midorima suddenly felt a little chilly.

If asked who is the person he respects the most, Midorima would say Akashi without hesitation.Akashi is the person who brought him into the basketball world, and he is like a senior to him.However, what Akashi said just now made him feel a little breathless.

Could it be that for Akashi, the existence of Kuroko is just a pawn?Thinking of what Kuroko said just now that he likes basketball, Midorima found his mind a little confused.

Taking a deep breath, Midorima told himself in his mind that these things had nothing to do with him at all, Heizi was just a teammate to him, even a teammate who was extremely difficult to get along with.

After getting rid of distracting thoughts from his mind, Midorima glanced at Kuroko who was still sleeping soundly, and then sent him back to the room.
