[Black Basket] Daydream

In the quiet courtyard there was only the sound of birds chirping, and from the brightly lit living room of the hostel came the energetic noises of the boys, among which Wakamatsu Kosuke's voice was particularly loud and distinct.

The figures vaguely reflected on the light blue curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows gathered together, shoulders and backs.

Jiuli was short of breath, she was walking faster and faster, almost running, her legs were so weak, she seemed to be complaining dissatisfiedly about this almost masochistic behavior.

Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead and flowed into his eyes, sour and uncomfortable.Kuli gasped heavily, and wiped the sweat off his face casually.

She had already walked out of the hostel, standing on the asphalt road that the Akashi family's private car had rolled over when she came here, the ground in contact with the soles of her feet was surprisingly hot, burning up from the soles of her feet.

The surrounding scenery is a no-man's road in the middle of the night. From the dark blue night sky and the trivial stars in the sky, you can barely see the stretching ridgeline in the distance. The undulating arc has a beautiful outline. At the foot of the mountain is a village full of lights.

Jiuli stopped slowly, and stood on the winding mountain road, staring blankly at the blurred horizon in the distance.

Her legs were almost unable to support her, so she simply sat on the floor, holding her knees and hunching her shoulders.

The night in the mountains is a little bit cold, and although the breeze blowing in the breeze is refreshing, it also has a hint of coolness.

Jiuli touched her cheek, mixed with sweat and a little tear, sticking to her face to form two dry marks, she felt that she must be extremely embarrassed now.

She recalled the vague memory fragments, when she raised her head and opened her eyes, it was the bright light of a round shadowless lamp, and the numbness that spread all over her body was the numbness of the anesthetic starting to work.The body was cut open by some unknown instrument with a cold light, and the organs were manipulated. The whole body was completely opened and exposed to the same kind, like a non-living object.

The rollers of the hospital bed were rubbing against the ground, and when she was being pushed along the corridor, people along the way would whisper about the serial rear-end car accident that happened on the cross-sea bridge a few days ago, lamenting how many lives were lost in that accident.

There are also several tourist buses, and because of the double-decker bus, many people sitting on the second floor unbuckled their seat belts and wanted to escape after the vehicle tilted, but fell into the sea through the windows.

In an instant, the overwhelming tide of water submerged her body, reaching to the top of her head, her long hair was scattered like clumps of seaweed twisting in the sea, and her fingers could only grasp the sticky water in vain.The salty sea water rushing in from the ears, nostrils and mouth, the fear of losing oxygen.

There was only one hospital closest to the accident scene, and it was very crowded due to the centralized delivery of the injured. When he was pushed out of the operating room, Jiuli still remembered the hissing and lung-cracking noise of the family members rushing in like a raging tide. Cries.

The laughing children and grandchildren, the kind-hearted old man, the newlywed couple, the baby waiting to be fed, the familiar and the strange, all of them were killed in an instant.

At that time, she probably understood something, and with the ignorant thinking of a child, she was forced to accept the first lesson from this world.

She remembered Aomine Daiki who jumped high on the court and then slammed a backhand dunk with astonishing momentum when she went to Teiko's basketball club to find Akashi.He dangled from the basket and jumped down, bent down to pull up the person who was knocked to the ground because of defending him: "Sorry, sorry, senior, are you okay? Speaking of which, your skills have regressed a lot ah!"

"Qingfeng, you kid, show me some respect for your senior!" The person who was pulled up was not annoyed, and punched the person called Qingfeng on the head, "Really, I lost to you."

Maybe some things are not because they can't let go, but because they don't want to let go at all, so they use the reason of "can't let go" to hypnotize themselves.

For her, such as Aomine Daiki.

Aomine rubbed his head and giggled, that kind of smile had a gleam that Kuri couldn't understand, but was very moved by it.

The whole person seems to be shining, and every move makes Jiuli unable to take her eyes off her. The feeling of being able to find the other person in the crowd at the first sight, and the emotion that softens her heart just by looking at each other makes her At a loss.

It was like being in a dark cave, and one day a warrior finally broke through the boulder, and the bright sunlight came through from the far end, whispering to her, I'm here to save you.

"Hey, Kurashi!"

Called by a familiar voice, Kuri shivered.

"I've called you several times, idiot, didn't you hear it?!" The same panting voice approached from behind, Qingfeng said angrily, "Running to such a place at such a late hour, are you scared stupid, or your brain is blocked live?"

As he spoke, he bent down and grabbed the shoulder of Kuri who was sitting on the ground.

The temperature touched was cold, Qingfeng frowned, and was about to say something, but Jiuli, who had always turned his back to him, interrupted him.

She reacted fiercely and turned away Qingfeng's hand on her shoulder, turned her face aside, put her hands on the ground, and looked ready to stand up and run away at any moment: "Don't come here, Qingfeng-kun."

"Huh? Are you talking about..."

Jiuli really crawled up from the ground, resisting the waves of dizziness and took a few steps forward unsteadily: "I said, I don't want to see you, leave me alone, you do not come!"

"Jiu..." Qingfeng paused his outstretched hand in mid-air, and slowly retracted it. He stared at Jiuli's back to his back and was silent for a few seconds, "Okay, I get it, don't go any further. gone."

Jiuli swayed, and she sat down again, in exactly the same posture as before, her slightly arched back made her whole into a small ball.

Aomine followed suit and took a few steps forward, standing behind Jiuli.

"I told you not to come here." Jiu Li's tone was not as intense as before, but exasperated.

There was a rustling sound, and Jiuli tried to identify what it was with her ears, but before she could distinguish it, a huge black shadow came down from her head, covering her head and covering her whole body stand up.

Jiu Li quickly stretched out his hand and pulled it away, and with his tentacles, he found that it was Aomine's coat, and it was still slightly warm.

Qingfeng also sat down, he propped his chin, his long legs were bent, and his elbows rested on his knees boredly: "I also said that I know."

A reassuring temperature is transmitted from the back-to-back contact of two people.

It seems that even the wind raging in the mountains is blocked by this generous back.

It is as solid as when it was in junior high school, it hasn't changed at all.As if both of them were in middle school, she could rely on this back at any time.

It was as if there was a hand reaching out at that time, the firmness was like even if you fell into the cliff, he would grab your hand and drag you up without hesitation.

"Hey, don't worry, I'll help you up."

I'm here to save you.

Kuri grabbed Aomine's coat and buried his face in it.

Qingfeng felt the slender back on his back twitch slightly. He raised his head and looked aimlessly at the starlight in the sky, and heard an extremely subtle and deliberately suppressed whimpering sound from behind him. coincidence.

The night in the countryside was quiet, and an unbelievably beautiful and clear full moon hung above the heads of the two of them, so that the brilliance was almost within reach, and they looked down on everything under their feet.

When Jiuli raised her face again, she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself on the spot.Even though she consciously tried her best to lower her voice, she still cried miserably, her whole face was about to burst into tears.

Just now he said something so handsomely to Shimizu Kazumi "Tears are not for others to see", but when I turned around and thought about it, I couldn't do it at all.

Biting her lip in embarrassment, Kuri lowered her head, the burning blush on her cheeks spreading to her ears.

What to do...what to do...still in front of Aomine...

Probably noticing that Jiuli had stopped sobbing, Qingfeng stretched his waist, turned half of his face to the side, and asked lazily: "When will your sleepover end?"

"Hey, do you want to sleep together?" Jiuli wiped the tears on his face in a panic, and answered honestly even though he didn't know his intentions, "There should be another week, and it will end next Wednesday."

"Tch, why is it so late." Qingfeng cursed in a low voice.Tonghuang's co-student will end in three days, which means that without him and that guy in Wuyue by his side, Jiuli will have to continue studying alone among those students with malicious intentions.

He bet it was impossible to get through it without incident.

But for a few weeks, how much trouble did Kurashi get into during this sleepover.Needless to say this time, Aomine dared to bet with Juhonhori Mai Kita's photobook that it must be the fault of those people again.If he hadn't seen Jiu Li running out of the hostel from the balcony and chased after her, and let her wander outside alone for so long, I would have been frightened into a cold sweat just thinking about it.

Even though Momoi was reluctant to leave Kurashi, after Tonghuang's co-op, she, as the team's manager, had to leave with them to make final adjustments for the upcoming summer national competition.

On the day of departure, all the team members had assembled at the place where the bus stopped.Supervisor Hara Zekerd raised his wrist to look at the time: "Well, it's almost time, Momoi, please count the number of people."

There is no need to count at all. At first glance, it looks like that person is missing from the team that has already arrived.

Momoi gritted her teeth, sure enough she spent most of her time in Tonghuang looking for Qingfeng and cleaning up Qingfeng's mess.Hastily bowing and apologizing to Hara Zekod, Momoi said anxiously: "Then I'll go to Aomine-kun now, I'm really sorry, supervisor, we will be back as soon as possible."

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! I'm obviously in the same room as Aomine-kun, but I can't persuade him to gather on time. It's all my fault!" Ryo Sakurai kept apologizing with a sad face, "But I woke up today I haven't seen Aomine-kun since I was in the middle of the night, so I probably overslept."

"Oh, it's really rare." Hearing this, Imayoshi Shoichi's eyes fell on Sakurai Ryo with interest, and he turned his eyes after seeing him uncomfortable, "The supervisor, Momoi-san and I are together. Let's go find Qingfeng."

"Okay, go back quickly."

With Hara Zekod's consent, Imayoshi trotted towards the road that Momoi had just left.

It is estimated that Momoi must first go to Aomine's room to find someone, Imayoshi speeds up, and he catches up with Momoi in the corridor.

Momoi couldn't find Qingfeng in the room, and was frowning and complaining to Jiuli next door: "That guy, Ada, is becoming more and more unreliable, this time he doesn't even remember the time of the meeting. He couldn't find it in the room." , I don’t know where he went, and he didn’t answer the phone, did you want me to worry to death?”

"Then what should we do, I'm sorry Wuyue, I don't know where he is..." Kuri who came to open the door was still wearing glasses, and scratched his cheek with the pen in his hand, a little distressed.

"There's no such thing. I'm here to disturb your study. Then I'll look elsewhere. If it's really impossible, just leave that guy here by himself! Really, it's not worry-free at all!" Momoi puffed up her cheeks angrily as she spoke more and more angrily.

After bidding farewell to Kuli, Momoi sighed, now he can only go to the garden to look for it, or Aomine went to the garden to admire the flowers on a whim... How is that possible.

Just as she was about to pass a corner, Momoi was pulled over with great force. Before she could cry out in surprise, she heard a familiar voice with a Kansai accent: "Momoi-san, it's me."

"Imayoshi-senpai?" Momoi reluctantly swallowed back the screams, turned around and asked him suspiciously, "Why are you here, senior?"

"The supervisor asked me to look for Qingfeng with you, but... well, don't look for him, let's go."

"Huh? Why, why?" Momoi was extremely surprised.

"The reason? Forget it, you can see for yourself." Imayoshi thought for a while, and probably felt that it would be troublesome to explain to Momoi, so he just pressed Momoi and hid in the corner to watch the movement of Kurashi's room door.

"What's so interesting..." Momoi muttered, the top of her head felt heavy by Imayoshi's hand, she shook her head uncomfortably, and when she cast her gaze there again, her eyes widened unconsciously.

Qingfeng, who disappeared to nowhere, shuffled over from the other end of the corridor with a basketball in his arms, holding two cans of sports drinks in his hand, walking unsteadily, without any concern for the upcoming departure time Look nervous.

No, speaking of it, he simply forgot about gatherings!

"MO really! That guy Aomine-kun, I won't let him go easily today!"

Momoi was about to rush out, but Imayoshi stopped her, and his tone was extremely helpless: "Can't you see why Aomine avoided the meeting time and didn't let us find him?"

"... Huh?" Momoi looked blank, "Imayoshi-senpai, do you mean that Aomine-kun didn't go to the assembly on purpose, but why?"

"..." Imayoshi sighed, he pushed up his glasses, looked at Momoi's expression, he could only sigh silently in his heart, "You are also that Ogata-san, even Aomine , What a bunch of idiots."

"Even if it's Imayoshi-senpai, it's too much to call others stupid..."
