[Black Basket] Winter Cherry Blossoms

"Your learning ability is very strong. I only demonstrated it twice, and you can fully grasp the essentials. I have nothing to teach you about basic exercises." Shaye is in charge of Kise's basic riding training, as if his skills are super With a strong imitation ability, she taught it very smoothly. As long as the precautions and difficulties are clearly explained, the basic crash training will be completed within an hour.

"How could I have learned so fast without my senior's demonstration? You are as good as little Akashi." After the practice, Kise picked up a handful of fodder placed by the guardrail, and walked to the little mare who was practicing with him In front of him, he began to feed him snacks.

"Compared to him, I am far behind, but I have no regrets losing to such a strong man." Saya replied with a wry smile.

"Speaking of which, since I was in middle school, I have only seen Akashi win, and I have never seen him lose." Kise recalled the past, "Except for one very special situation, he almost lost, but fortunately the miracle was there There was a moment that allowed him to reverse and win the game."

"His middle school days were much better than mine."

"Actually, it's not much better. He was the head of the basketball department and the student union at the time. He was a super busy man. Moreover, he was able to integrate the Generation of Miracles into the strongest team. His unparalleled commanding ability is really impressive. I admire it."

"He is really a competent minister." The topic about Teiko gradually unfolded. As Kise recalled the past in middle school, Saya heard old news from him that was not mentioned in the magazine.

"Yeah, good grades in school, good looks, and even better in sports. There are many girls who always go to confess to him after his practice, but he seriously rejects them... Ah, sorry, I shouldn't Say these words, let's change the subject..." Realizing that he had said something wrong, Huang Lai quickly stopped the topic, for fear that he would spoil the relationship between the two of them by slipping his tongue.

"It doesn't matter, he is also very popular in Luoshan." Speaking of this, Sha Ye felt uncomfortable. Although she already knew that the confession of those girls would not be successful, she still felt sour.

"Seeing him surrounded by girls, I can understand your feelings at that time." Seeing Saya's lonely expression, Kise couldn't help thinking that Li Lizi would show the same expression sometimes, even if the two hadn't confessed to each other, she had never said anything to each other. He complained, but he knew that when he was surrounded by girls, she felt very uncomfortable.

"It's a pity that he and I haven't reached that level yet, so I don't even have the right to suffer." Saya untied the filly and let it move freely in the field.

"Why not? I've never seen him be so domineering to a girl. He even glared at me when I greeted you. It can be seen that you are very special in his heart. No, you are a very important person. Just take the title , Neither I nor the other team members dared to call him by his name, but he gave you this privilege, and the way he looked at you was very gentle, for a moment I thought he was back at that time."

"The him at that time?" Hearing the doubts hidden in Kise's words, Saya asked, "What happened to him during those three years in Teiguang?"

"How should I put it? The situation that day was really weird..." Kise recalled that unforgettable 1v1 duel, and was still confused by the scene he saw. What happened before the middle school tournament, Teiko was a strong player in the middle school basketball world, his only belief was victory, but as the school became more obsessed with victory, the Miracle Generation's own abilities grew rapidly, the kind of people who used to fight on the court with their peers But the feeling is gradually disappearing. At that time, I didn’t notice much change. I still participated in club activities as usual. After Qingfeng said those words, the main players gradually changed, until that strange 1v1 happened, Teiguang became a team centered on individual ability, and there was no cooperation between the players at all, even so, In the final round, we still won the championship.”

"Do you feel very happy about such a victory?" Saya asked tentatively.

"Even I didn't know it at the time. That feeling should be happiness. It's better than losing the game. But since I played against Xiao Heizi a few days ago, I feel that what I lost back then has come back. I can't help but feel happy." I sigh in my heart, I am really happy to be able to play with Kai Chang and Kasamatsu-senpai.”

"From what you said, the situation at Teiko's side is a bit similar to the Sakuraen Middle School where I was." Although the conversation with Kise did not fully explain the main reason for Akashi's change, she already understood the general situation, at least in Victory In terms of definition, it reminded her of what happened in Sakura Garden.

"Similar? But I heard Li Lizi said that she had a very happy time in middle school. Could something else have happened?"

"It was very happy in a certain way, but it was a disaster in the club. She didn't say that because she was afraid of dirtying your ears. That incident caused a lot of trouble in the gymnastics circle, and I He and the other two main players were also affected by the incident and retired early. I still remember what the principal said to me at that time, if you can’t get the first place, you have no value.”

"It's too much, how could he say that kind of thing." Kise also complained about Saya's experience, "Gymnastics competitions are different from ball games. The referee's score is the final result. You have tried your best, and he can't take the loss. The reason for this all depends on you!"

"Whether it's the loss to the team player or the referee's score, if you lose, you lose. In the eyes of those people, I am a loser."

"Have you told Akashi about these things?"

"No, those things have nothing to do with him, and I don't intend to tell him. I really feel sorry for you to hear me complain."

"You would rather tell Ryota about the past than tell me. The one you should apologize to should be me." When Saya and Kise started chatting, a cold voice sounded behind the two of them. It turned out that Akashi had finished his teaching and came to meet up, but happened to overhear the topic they were talking about just now.

"Seijuro, have you finished your teaching?" Sensing that the situation was a little bad, Saya pretended to be calm and walked towards the horses that were grazing, stepped on the stirrups and sat on the horse's back, ready to escape before Akashi got angry.

"It's too late to escape now." Akashi hurried to the side of the horse, stepped on the stirrup and sat behind Saya, blocking her retreat with ease.

"Don't squeeze me, it's not good to be seen by them..." Saya complained in a low voice with a blushing face.

"Did you forget that we have to give them a demonstration?" Akashi snatched the rein from Saya's hand and regained control of the horse. He turned the horse's head and said to Kise, "Ryota, this is you and Takahashi The demonstration that the lady wants, after you understand it, go to her to practice, I will take Saya for a run, if you have nothing to do, don't bother us."

"Don't worry, Lily and I won't be light bulbs, go slowly." Kise just barely waved the handkerchief and sent the two away respectfully. Akashi, who is angry, can't afford to mess with him, and he also needs time It is the best choice to develop a relationship with Lilizi without interfering with each other.

*****

The horse was carrying the two of them jogging in the racecourse. Saya never thought that angering Akashi would end up like this. Now not only is he riding the same horse with him, but his left hand is also around her waist, causing her to be on the horse. She couldn't move her back, and she felt uncomfortable at such intimacy.

"Saya, tell me in the future if you have something on your mind, don't get too close to other men, I don't like it." Holding the rein and controlling the horse to stop on a hill in the racecourse, Akashi expressed his dissatisfaction to Saya .

"I acted according to your group, is there something wrong?"

"I didn't let you chat with him to the extent of sharing past private affairs, you can only tell me about those things." It was originally Akashi's arrangement to make Saya and Kise a group, but he underestimated his own patience, As long as he saw her talking and laughing with Kise, he couldn't help but want to step forward and separate them.

"You're a busy person, I don't want those annoying things to bother you." Not daring to look back at Akashi's face, Saya tried to calm herself down, but in vain, the heat on her face continued unabated.

"No matter how busy I am, I will find time to listen to your complaints, and I will tell you everything you want to know."

"Really?" Saya finally turned his head this time, "Would you also tell me about the past at Teiko High School?"

"Of course, you can tell me if you want to hear it, provided that you can accept it, and I don't want to scare you." Akashi didn't intend to hide anything from her, but just wanted her to get used to the life with him. The date of telling the truth has been repeatedly pushed back.

"With Meixiang as a lesson from the past, do you think there is still something that can scare me?"

"Then we won't find out until the agreed date. Let's go back to the current question. How long are you going to hide those things from me?"

"It's all old stuff, not worth mentioning." That was the past that Saya wanted to forget. If she hadn't chatted with Huang SE, she would have probably forgotten all about it.

"But I want to know everything about you." Lifting her chin lightly, Akashi approached her face, "Don't hold back from me, I have the right to know those things."

"You...don't be too domineering, I also have the right to refuse." Saya cursed herself for not being up to date, and every time she was stared at by Akashi, she would automatically surrender.

"I'm only domineering to you, how about it, say it or not?"

Seeing that the lips of the two were getting closer, Saya had no choice but to compromise, "Don't lean closer, I said, I will tell you everything I remember."

"Very good, I will listen to your complaints tonight. The next time is punishment time, and you should be a little conscious, otherwise you will commit crimes knowingly next time." The meaning of Akashi's words is clear, and now the agreement There is still a period of time before the day, and the relationship between the two has not been formalized. The only thing he can do is to use this small punishment to get closer to her, so that he can feel a little more at ease.

"You...what do you want? I can't do things that are too difficult." As soon as Akashi's Demon King mode was turned on, Saya knew that he couldn't escape, and in desperation he could only pray that he could pass the level smoothly.

"You can rest assured that you are competent." Akashi lowered his head and whispered his request in Saya's ear. After a while, he watched her blushing completely with satisfaction.

"Then...those things can only be done between lovers, we..."

"The relationship between us is only different from that sentence. The difference is not big. Come on, your adaptation practice has already begun."

"You will only bully me." Unable to escape, she had to bite the bullet and do it. Saya put her arms around Akashi's neck, raised her head and kissed him on the cheek, and then she turned around immediately, not daring to talk to him at all. eye to eye.

The gentle touch left a short-lived warmth on his face, and Akashi's anger slowly subsided, "Okay, I'll let you off this time, and the punishment will be doubled if you commit another crime next time."

As the sun set, the golden afterglow poured over the racecourse, dyeing it a layer of dazzling golden yellow. Akashi grabbed the reins and let the horse run again, heading towards the exit of the racecourse. After a day of tossing, everyone was a little tired. There was tutoring last night, and he had to rush back to the main house as soon as possible to let Saya take a nap before dinner so that she would have the energy to stay up late and talk with him. Working hard for the ride.

"Xiao Lizi, I also want to be like Akashi, so as to meet the effect of the advertisement."

"Wait, you're too close, get away from me."

"We are acting as lovers. If we don't get close, there will be no such effect. Come closer."

"Ah!! Idiot, you told the horse to run slowly, you scared me to death! Stop it!" Li Lizi's scream came from not far away.

"Hahaha, Lizi, you have to hold on tighter, I'm going to speed up."

"Kose, please stop, you idiot!"

Seeing that the two were so enthusiastic about practicing, Akashi didn't go over to disturb them. Just when he was riding his horse and was about to stop near the door, the scene he saw suddenly made him tighten the reins and let the horse stay where it was , and then he covered Saya's eyes with his hands to prevent her from seeing the scene in front of her.

"What's the matter, Seijuro?" With his eyes covered suddenly, Saya wanted to pull Akashi's hand, but he stopped him.

"Wait a minute, that scene will soon pass." Akashi didn't know how to explain to Saya. His Jack threw her Ruth down, but he was still the overlord. It seems that the night talk He and she had one more problem to deal with.

After a long time, finally waiting for Jack and Ruth to run away sweetly, Akashi dared to let go, but Saya only saw Jack and Ruth chasing each other, and couldn't see the front part at all. She turned her head and looked at it suspiciously. Akashi asked, "What happened just now?"

"It's nothing, I just think that Jack has been a little lacking in training recently, and I plan to teach him a good lesson tonight."

Akashi easily covered up the matter, and cleverly changed the subject, "Now let's go back to rest first, after tonight's tutoring, I will take you to a place."

"Why do I think it's a trap?" Seeing the smile on Akashi's face, Saya thought that there must be something strange about what he said.

Who knew that Akashi immediately verified her conjecture, and he said with a smile: "What about the trap? You will still walk in obediently, and I look forward to you opening that surprise."
