shining moment

Chapter 12: The Tomorrow That Continues

The 45-degree spring water comes out from the ground, and the water flow and steam cover the surroundings of the hot spring with a light gauze. The quiet and warm environment allows people to relax their bodies wholeheartedly.

The luxuriant branches and leaves are scattered with layers of branches, and the dim street lamps illuminate the simple bridge made of wooden boards. The lush greenery is looming, and the tinkle of the trickling water echoes in the dark surroundings.

In the hot spring hotel in the suburbs, the teenagers are resting in the room after soaking in the hot spring.

The blue-haired boy was lying on the soft white floor with his right hand resting on his side. The blue and white striped kimono was tied loosely around his body with a black belt. He was flipping through the weekly basketball magazine with his left hand and said, "Where is this miscellaneous magazine?" What's going on! Why is the rating of our Xiangbei basketball team only C?! Hainan's rating is A!" Feng Yu is also A, it seems that Mori's worry is not unreasonable.

It was after the chance encounter in the afternoon, because we dropped by the way, we went back to the hotel together.While walking on the road, An Tiansen once mentioned Fengyu worriedly again. At that time, Mitsui didn't take it seriously. He said as always that his team would have no problems. Now it seems that he can't be underestimated. opponent in the first match.

Since the national competition is an elimination system, although it is the first round, if Xiangbei loses in the first game, then the national competition will come to an end for Xiangbei.

"Akagi, what's the matter with you?" Mu Mu noticed that Akagi was looking out the window thoughtfully and asked.

After pondering for a while, Akagi asked about the situation when Wushi Middle School participated in the junior high school basketball league as the champion team in Kanagawa, "Mitsui, were you nervous during the junior high school competition?"

Mitsui closed the Basketball Weekly in his hand, got up and sat cross-legged, and recalled the situation three years ago, "Hmm... Did you hit all of them? Somewhat."

"It's the first time for me. Participating in a national competition or something made me feel nervous and trembling all over my body. I'd better go out for a run." After finishing speaking, Akagi walked out.

Mitsui looked at Akagi who walked out of the room and said, "So he would be nervous too..."

"It's no wonder," Mu Mu explained, "because this is the national competition that Akagi has dreamed of since elementary school..."

The sound of insects chirping at night was particularly obvious in this silent environment, and Akagi kept jogging around the hotel, trying to relieve the tension before the competition.

One step closer to the road of dream, to dominate the country, this goal that has been lingering in my heart for a long time, is constantly approaching after countless times of sweat.

For the teenagers, the ever-lasting tomorrow is a dream deep in their hearts.

In the large room, the girl lying on the bed was talking softly under the dim light of the desk lamp.

"Hey, Mori, have you decided which university to go to?"

"Well, Tokyo Science."

"Eh? I thought it would be Tokyo University or Waseda! Why did you choose Tokyo Science, Mori?"

"The exam will be easier. It's too tiring to study all night in order to be admitted to the best prestigious university. Instead of doing this, why not choose a school that is not far from Kanagawa and can be easily admitted. Yuko you So, which university do you want to go to?"

"Well... I still couldn't make up my mind before, since Mori and you choose Tokyo Science, I will work hard and go to the same university as you!"

"What about Hojo-san?"

"His goal is the University of Tokyo, which is his ideal. Toru, there must be no problem. I think, if it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to pass the exam no matter how hard I tried, haha." The short-haired girl pretended to be relaxed and laughed twice with a slightly lonely expression.

"Tokyo University, it's not very far from Tokyo University of Science, it's only less than half an hour's journey. Yuko, work hard to get into the University of Science and Technology, it will be very easy to meet in the future."

In the Japanese-style room, the dim warm-toned light shines on the corner of the room, showing the corner of the painting on the wall. The fragrance of rush grass relieves the fatigue and tension of the body, making people feel drowsy and peaceful .

In the quiet night, only the faint sound of breathing circulated in the air.

On the morning of August 8nd, the sun was not yet hot. Through the gaps between the leaves on both sides, with the coolness of green, it shone on the white bus parked quietly by the roadside, glowing with warm golden light.The breeze blowing slowly fluttered the summer game promotional banners hanging on both sides of the road.

Just as the teenagers were about to leave the hot spring hotel and go to the stadium with anxiety, the kind hotel proprietress said loudly, "Call! It's for you! A Mr. Yanichi Aida called. Oh, yes, There is also a very thick FAX for you." The proprietress said, shaking the thick stack of documents in her hand.

"Have you received all the FAX?" On the other end of the phone was a boy with a strong Kansai accent, an alternate player in the basketball club of Lingnan High School, "Although that is just some information about your opponents that I collected during the finals in Osaka , but the credibility of these materials is still very high. Even if it is only a little information, I think I can do my best for everyone, because I hope Xiangbei wins. If you lose this time, I will not I will forgive you!" The boy named Aida Yanichi said on the phone.

Although the Osaka boy named Yanichi Aida is only 165 cm tall, has mediocre skills, and has no chance to play in Lingnan, he is good at collecting information about various teams. There is also more understanding.

"Will Lingnan come to watch the game? Today is the first round of this genius Sakuragi's national competition!"

"Ah, it's Sakuragi-senpai! We won't come anymore, we are now stepping up our practice so that we can defeat Shonhoku in the future!"

"Are everyone from Lingnan also by the phone?" Akagi said after answering the phone.

"Well, yes."

"Come on! Come on! Come on! Xiangbei! Come on!" Lingnan's deafening cheers came from the other end of the phone.

The two teams also unknowingly established a friendship between their opponents during the game. For Lingnan who was defeated by Xiangbei, now Xiangbei, as the only second qualifying team in Kanagawa, represented Kanagawa in the national competition. High hopes.

"Then, let's go." Under the leadership of coach Anxi, the Xiangbei basketball team officially marched towards the first round of the national competition.

In the basketball arena in the wide area park, the Fengyu basketball team from Osaka will compete with the Shonhoku basketball team from Kanagawa in the first round.

The two teams in the lounge are deploying their own battle plans for this time.

As the captain, Akagi was speaking, "First of all, I will grab the ball back when the ball is jumping. Rukawa, when the time comes, you run forward immediately, just like you did against Hainan, and use a fast break to grab the ball first."

"it is good."

"Gorilla, is it really okay to rely on Rukawa? Last time he was intercepted by uncle, but the plan failed." Sakuragi remembered that in the last match against Hainan, Rukawa's ball was intercepted by Mu, and he couldn't help subconsciously Expressed his distrust of Rukawa.

Sakuragi, who always claims to be a genius, never seems to miss any chance to hit Rukawa Kaede.

"I will definitely not let anyone stop me this time." Rukawa was still expressionless, but Rukawa's determination could be felt in his words.

"Sakuragi, you have to let everyone see the results of your special training." Mu Mu said.

With his hands on his hips, Sakuragi laughed confidently: "Sure enough, you expect me a lot, hahahaha." Finally, it's time to show off my skills in the national competition. I am no longer the one I was in the district competition. I can compare it.Today's day has come to become a rising star in Japan.

"Teacher, this publication says that our Xiangbei basketball team is a C-level team. Do you have any opinions?!" Mitsui held the basketball publications he had read before, thinking that Xiangbei had also defeated the other teams in Kanagawa. A capable team came to the national competition as a qualifying team, but they only gave a C-level evaluation, and they were still a little bit aggrieved.

"Well, wouldn't this be better. In this way, others will think that we have no chance of winning, and it will be easier to win easily when we are playing against our opponents. Isn't this better?" Coach Anxi patted Mitsui shoulder, and continued calmly, "But at the end of the game, everyone will naturally know whether it is right or wrong to judge us in this way, and everyone must let them know that their thinking is wrong."

Coach Anxi's words enlightened Mitsui, who was still a little unwilling before, and also inspired the confidence and morale of the players to face the national competition.

On the stands of the auditorium, Tokuo and his party still appeared with the banner of "炎の男三っちゃん", but they went to the wrong camp at the beginning and sat in the stands area of ​​Fengyu High School. Words of encouragement for Feng Yu filled his ears.

"What is Xiangbei! Get rid of them!"

"Come on! Come on! Come on Fengyu!"

The German man who sat in the wrong seat didn't seem to care at all, and shouted loudly, "Come on Xiangbei!"

After a while, it aroused the dissatisfaction of Feng Yu's students, "Are you looking for a fight?! Hey!!!"

All the students sitting around were Fengyu's students. Under such momentum, De Nan and his party seemed to run back to the Xiangbei camp.

"Ah, it's De Nan." Seeing De Nan and his party passing by, An Tiansen waved his hand again and said hello.

De Nan looked at Yasuda Morimata, sweating slightly on his forehead, and replied politely, "It's been a long time, Classmate Yasuda."

An Tiansen pointed to the seat not far away and said, "There are still a few vacant seats over there."

"Ah, thank you." De Nan thanked and hurried forward.

"Are you familiar with them?" Uesugi Yuko asked with some doubts.

"Have you never seen it before? They cheer for Mitsui every game. Everyone is a classmate of Xiangbei."

"It looks a little scary. I didn't expect to be able to do this for Mitsui."

"Well, after all, Mitsui stayed with them all the time during the decadent two years ago, so no matter how you say it, they should have deep feelings."

"Eh? Isn't that a bad boy?!"

"Well, that's what everyone says."

"Eh? It's really bad, but why are you so polite? I always feel so strange..."

"They also have their own principles, Yuko."

"Really?!" Uesugi Yuko kept getting closer to Yasuda Morimata, "Well... I always feel that you have something you didn't tell me!"

"What?" Anderson said calmly, looking at the ever-enlarged face in front of him again.

"My intuition tells me that when they see you, it's not just a matter of politeness among classmates."

"Eh? Your intuition? Yuko, could it be that I'm a more terrifying existence than them? It's just because the game is about to start that they are eager to find a seat to watch the game. Your imagination is too rich." Yasuda Sen explained casually again.

Uesugi Yuko immediately nodded and said, "Well, that's what I said, maybe I'm thinking too much."

"Toku Nan, that Yasuda classmate just now..."

"Ah, it's that Yasuda, watch the game, Mi-chan has appeared. Give me serious cheer!"

"Xiangbei, come on!"

"come on! Come on!"

The author has something to say: How should I put it, I always feel that there are always a lot of things to do, so I don’t have a lot of time to write articles. Well, in fact, sometimes I still get lazy.When I write my own essays, I am always entangled in the plot, and sometimes I have a lot of thoughts, thinking whether to develop in this direction or another.To be honest, it is HE, but I always linger in my mind. What is going on with all kinds of BE... Many chapters are constantly revised and revised, and some unsatisfactory details will be deleted constantly. From 9 I started writing this month, and I have already written more than 3 words and more than ten chapters before I knew it. To be honest, I don’t know how many chapters this article will write and how long it will go on. Every time I look back at what I wrote before , There is always a kind of thought, ah, does this need to be changed again, and whether the plot and characters here will be very strange.

When writing articles, I often review comics and animations to ensure that there will not be too much difference in the plot, and restore the feeling brought by the original work as much as possible.Now I am also chasing the HD remake of Slam Dunk every week. In other words, I finally look forward to Mitsui's appearance.

The character Mitsui Shou is also my favorite character in SD. Writing this fan is also an idea all the time. I decided to write this article after a long time after I had this idea. I finally started to write it. Before I wrote it I have roughly conceived some basic character design and general direction. In short, it will definitely be HE in the end...

I have always held the idea of ​​wanting to write this fanart well. Sometimes I review what I wrote, and I will revise it. Every plot will be considered for a long time. In short, I feel that I am really entangled ah.

Well, in short, everyone should not care about these details. Please forgive me when the update is slow. It must be that I am seriously thinking about the future plot development.

Here I would like to give a special thanks to the Japanese consultant Nico, who really helped me a lot when I encountered problems in Japanese when writing the article.
