[Black Basket] Drawing Heart Diary

winter cup

Time always flies. After Sasaki-senpai retired from the club, she was originally a senior high school senior who had half-retired. She also quit the basketball club two months later.

No farewell, no tears, everything ordinary is nothing more than ordinary.

With the withdrawal of the deputy minister, the women's basketball team began to become precarious.

The real name Tachibana Maki, who was once enrolled with Sasaki-senpai, but was called "Yuri" by Sasaki, took over the position of vice-minister at this time, and shared a lot of daily affairs of the basketball club in Akasai Ryo .

Previously, this senior was selected by the school as an exchange student. After a year or so of exchange student experience, she has now returned to Luoshan.

This senior doesn't like basketball, and she doesn't like basketball as much as Sasaki-senpai.

According to her, the main reason why she joined the basketball club was because it was too late when she joined the club. Then he joined the women's basketball team.

When Chi Xiliang joined the basketball club, he saw this senior at the recruiting office, but since he never saw her again, he gradually forgot about her.

Although I saw the name Tachibana Maki on the roster of the basketball club, at that time, Sasaki-senpai simply explained that this person had exchanged to another school, and when Sasaki-senpai called her, she always used "Yuri" ', so Chi Xiliang didn't connect these two people together for a while.

Because she was not a familiar senior, Chi Xiliang didn't pay much attention to her, but she didn't expect her to be a member of the basketball club.

Now that she is back, she has really taken a lot of pressure off her.

As the days go by, the start of the Winter Cup is not far away.

At the Inter·High venue, Akanishi Ryo once met Kuroko once.

At that time, she had just finished talking with Kise, and was about to go back to the hotel after receiving a call from Senior Higuchi. While walking in the long corridor, she ran into Kuroko who came out to buy water with Vulcan .

The two stood in front of the vending machine, and Heizi lowered his head to take out the drink from the vending machine. When he straightened up, he saw Chi Xiliang walking in their direction.

Chi Xiliang didn't pay much attention to the people around her, so when she saw Heizi, she didn't recognize him for a while.

"Chi Xisang, long time no see." Heizi greeted Chi Xiliang calmly.

Chi Xiliang turned his face slightly, and saw Heizi and Vulcan standing there. Vulcan opened the drink can in his hand, took a sip, and then put it down to greet her: "Hey, from Luoshan, long time no see .”

Akashi Liang didn't pay much attention to Vulcan's address to him, and looked at them with a slight smile: "Long time no see, Tetsuya, Vulcan Lord, are you here to watch the game?"

"Well, Akanishi-san is also here to watch the game. Where's Akashi-kun?" Heizi nodded and answered Akaxiliang's question.

"Azheng? I'm probably preparing for the match now. I'm very interested in the match between Haichang and Tonghuang, so I came to take a look. It's a pity that I can't watch their next match." Chi Xiliang regretted sighed.

"Well, that's really a pity."

Heizi replied like this, and after he finished speaking, the three stood in front of the vending machine and looked at each other silently, some of them didn't know what to say.

"See you at the Winter Cup, we will definitely defeat Luoshan then."

After a period of silence, Vulcan said to Chi Xiliang.

He crushed the finished beverage can and threw it into the trash can next to the vending machine.

When he said such words, he had a confident and proud expression on his face, and his tightly clenched fists showed his full fighting spirit.

Chi Xiliang looked at him, bent his lips, and replied: "See you in winter, I hope that these words will no longer be conveyed by me, Lord Vulcan."

"Also, Tetsuya—" Chi Xiliang turned sideways, looked at Heizi, his black eyes were full of smiles but also worried: "When winter comes, everything will be over, your basketball..."

"Thank you for taking care of me all the time, Akanishi-san. As for that matter, I think I have found the answer. My basketball will definitely prove it to you."

Heizi bent down, thanked Chi Xiliang sincerely, and said words that Vulcan could not understand at all.

Chi Xiliang's expression softened, and he said, "How can this be called taking care of you? Tetsuya, you are too polite, and I didn't help you much at that time, and even when I answered your question, I just said It's a vague concept. I'm really flattered that you're like this."

At that time, Akashi suddenly changed, and the basketball club became completely different in one day, and Kuroko was worried about how to develop his basketball, and finally approached Akasai Ryo.

The two found a secluded place and talked a lot, but in the end, Chi Xiliang didn't give Heizi an answer, and Heizi couldn't find the answer to Chi Xiliang's question at that time.

"However, it's great that you found the answer. I'm looking forward to it. Your basketball will definitely be different in winter."

"Well, I think so too, Chixi-san."

——Let’s meet again at the Winter Cup!

In the end, she and Heizi made such an agreement that was not considered an agreement.

See you in winter, and now, winter is coming, and the time to meet again is not far away.

The qualifiers for the Winter Cup have already begun, and the format of the Winter Cup this time is quite different from the past.

After joining a number of sponsors, the scale of the Winter Cup has jumped up, and it is a sports event of the same scale as Inter·High.

With the expansion of the scale, the schedule and competition system this time have also become different from the past.

First, there are fewer participating teams. There are 47 counties, each with one team, plus the top two from Inter·High, and one host. There are a total of 50 teams.

Luoshan is the champion of Inter High. As a seeded team, it directly enters the Winter Cup national finals, so it does not need to participate in the Winter Cup qualifiers.

The top two schools in the national competition have been unconditionally determined to participate. Tonghuang in Tokyo has already won the right to participate. Because Tokyo is the host, there are a total of two participating teams.

In the first round of preliminaries, Seirin played against No.6 Chengcheng High School. If they won this game, they would be able to enter the round robin.

Afterwards, Izumi Makan, Hidetoku, Kirisaki Daiichi and Seirin will conduct a decisive round-robin match, and two teams will be determined to enter the Winter Cup National Finals.

Luoshan, as the top two schools in the national competition, has been unconditionally determined to play, so while other schools are playing in the qualifiers, Luoshan is still carrying out daily training calmly.

When Chi Xiliang occasionally passed the gymnasium where the First Army was training, he also saw Dai Qianxun Senior Dai play, but there was nothing particularly surprising about his performance.

Chi Xiliang stood outside the door and stared at the inside of the hall for a long time. Except that he concluded that Senior Dai's physical fitness was indeed more than a little higher than Zheye's, he didn't see any misdirection on the other side's ability to mislead.

Maybe she didn't notice it, maybe the opponent didn't use it at this time, no matter what, this should be the barrier that Akashi placed when facing Kuroko.

When two people with similar abilities meet on the field, no matter how they can become good friends, they will never want to see opponents similar to themselves on the field.

Don't talk about good friends and bad friends, it's almost impossible to coexist.

A man like you is a natural enemy on the field.

Even if they can get along well outside the arena, they absolutely cannot coexist on the arena.

Because one of them will definitely restrain the other.

Judging from the current situation that Senior Dai's ability is higher than Tetsuya's, Tetsuya must be the one who is restrained during the competition.

Akanishi Liang withdrew his gaze and left the gymnasium.

Dai Qianxun, who had stopped training, picked up a towel to wipe off her sweat, and subconsciously turned her head to look at the entrance of the gymnasium.

"What's the matter, Dai?" his teammate asked him.

"...It's nothing." After holding up the towel for a while, Dai Qianxun put down her hand and shook her head to indicate that it was nothing.

Akashi watched his movements, and then looked at the door. At this time, Akasai Ryo had already left, so he only saw a group of girls at the door who were watching their training with admiration.

He didn't pay much attention to these people before, but now that he found out, he suddenly felt that their voices were a bit noisy.

Moreover, there seemed to be a lot more people than usual today.

After looking at each other with the deputy minister behind him, the other party immediately understood what he meant, and walked to the door to signal the girls to be quiet or leave here.

The girls left in a rush. Although the deputy minister's words were extremely gentle, but paired with his extremely serious expression, it would make people feel intimidated.

The girls who felt that this was driving them away in disguise immediately left the gymnasium and stopped watching openly at the door.

After the deputy director came back, Akashi called all the members in the hall to prepare for the next training.

It's business as usual for the men's basketball team, but for the women's basketball team, after the change of the competition system, it can be regarded as losing the right to participate.

Their first opponent was the team that defeated them, which was even more annoying than a fateful encounter.

The chances of encountering them recently are too high. Shouldn't they draw each other from the schools that are close to each other in the qualifiers?This year's random selection by the system is really unreliable.

Although their own strength is really unreliable, Chi Xiliang still hopes that they can enter the Winter Cup national competition circle.

After all, she will leave the basketball club soon, and the Winter Cup will be her last time fighting with them.

As soon as this school year is over, she has to leave... Although she is not reluctant, she was moved by what Jun Akanishi's brother said, and now she is even a little ready to move...

But going abroad is really not in her consideration.

When her parents were still alive, it was okay to say that although they had no feelings, they were bound by blood after all, and they were elders, so it was right for her to obey their words.

Just now... eh...

Chi Xiliang sighed lightly, rubbed his face, and then patted it lightly a few times.

Now she has also agreed, and now, unexpectedly, the person who will replace her has been decided, so her departure will not cause any big problems.

"School girl?" Tachibana Maki said while standing beside Akanishi Ryo holding a pile of documents.

"Ah, Maki-senpai." Akaxi Liang came back to his senses, stood up and took the documents in Tachibana Maki's hand, "Is this the amount for today? Then leave it to me."

"Well, there is an off-campus practice match today, so I'll leave it to you, junior." Tachibana Maki nodded, her expression still as calm as ever.

"Okay, Maki-senpai."

After Tachibana Maki left, Akanishi Ryo began to deal with today's affairs in the basketball club.

In addition to the matters of the women's basketball team, some of the men's basketball team also took over, but the weight is often not too much, and it is easy to deal with.

In many cases, it is nothing more than some resignations and other applications for permission.

Now is the time for the department's work. Often at this time, Chi Xiliang is either dealing with these things or training in the gymnasium.

Now the preliminaries of the winter competition have almost been carried out, and in a few days, it will be the official opening day.

And the most important thing now is coming earlier than the Winter Cup... the final test.
