[Black Basket] Star Trail

From the corner of his eye, he saw that Akashi had already picked up the notebook and was about to answer the answer. Kanazawa Norie frowned, and began to complain dissatisfiedly, "I said... Ah Zheng, you did it too fast, right? If you continue like this Our learning progress is completely different, and I will be the one who lags behind."

Akashi Seijuro raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, looked at the test paper in front of the girl, and found the contradiction with her words without any surprise. "Isn't it already the last page?"

Even though the lie was exposed by the other party, the girl still did not show embarrassment on her face, but smiled slightly, her eyes bent into a beautiful crescent shape, "So I thought I was doing it fast, but unexpectedly I was still dumped by Ah Zheng." To be honest, it was a bit hurt."

"There is only one answer, and it would be more troublesome if you finish it at the same time." Akashi glanced at the answer casually and checked the answer. Anyway, he was all right, and he didn't even bother to draw the circle. "It's better to do it one by one."

Saying this, the boy handed the answer book to the girl opposite, and Kanzawa Norie, who just finished writing the last word, took it smoothly.Because the timing of the next test paper can only be started after she finishes checking, Akashi Seijuro has a not too big vacancy at this moment.The red-haired boy glanced at Kanazawa Norie with his chin resting on his cheeks. The movements she made were exactly the same as his, and there was obviously no need to correct them.

Akashi Seijuro seemed to remember something, raised his wrist and looked at his watch, it was much earlier than the time limit written on the test paper, and the progress of the two of them was even better than he imagined——Akashi originally thought that Kanzawa Norie would distract him , or he would distract her, but in fact, neither of them became a burden to the other.

If I have to say why, it is because Kanzawa Norie is always extremely serious when doing business.

"By the way, where's Kanzawa-kun?" Akashi Seijuro finally found a gap and asked, he had been very concerned since just now, "I thought he would be here too."

"Let's play games downstairs." Kanzawa Norie turned his pen around, sorted out the completed test papers and put them aside, "Anyway, he won the priority admission to high school, and the entrance exam scores are not good at all. important."

The red-haired boy raised his eyebrows again, "I haven't heard of it."

"Well, because that high school doesn't have high requirements for grades, and it's also the type that dominates the country in swimming... just like the men's basketball in Teiko or Luoshan." Kanzawa Norie explained, "So Just because of the medals, I accepted him."

"Really." Akashi Seijuro thought thoughtfully, "Where is the high school?"

"Kanagawa." Kanazawa Norie replied casually while taking out a new test paper, "Because it is too far away from Kansai, there will probably be very few opportunities to meet him in the future. Although he will still go to Kyoto during the long vacation."

Akashi Seijuro didn't answer any more, but stood up with his hands on the table, "I'll go to the bathroom first."

After the footsteps of the red-haired boy gradually receded, until he turned into the toilet next to the room, Kanzawa Norie raised his head from the test paper, glanced at the door he had closed, and reached into his pocket.

The phone, which became a little hot due to her body temperature, was held in the palm of her hand, as if holding a small warm bag.Kanzawa Norie took out her cell phone, opened the cover and opened the email she received yesterday.

...still nothing real.

What she had already given up caught her by surprise in the most unexpected way and at the most unexpected time.Kanzawa Norie couldn't even explain what his emotions were made of at the moment, it was too complicated—it was so complicated that it was impossible to explain clearly.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Kanzawa Norie quickly put the phone back into his pocket, and then assumed a waiting posture.She thought she was covering it up well, but when Seijuro Akashi walked past her, he saw something wrong with her with just one glance.

"what happened?"

Kanzawa Norie blinked and started to play dumb, "Huh?"

The red-haired boy sat down in front of her, across a small round table, and stared at her with squinted eyes, like a lion watching its prey, cautious and dangerous at the same time, "the expression is a bit strange."

"Maybe I'm a little tired. After all, I started doing the papers before noon." Kanzawa Jihui stretched his waist for an excuse, "Ah Zheng, what do you want to drink? I'll go down and get it for you..."

"Ji Hui."

The girl stopped immediately when she said the words on her lips.Probably considering her feelings, Akashi Seijuro seldom called her name, but every time he uttered these two syllables, the expression on his face was serious and almost solemn.Kanzawa Norie frowned, then smiled nonchalantly, "Huh?"

"I thought you already knew it very well." Akashi Seijuro lowered his head and turned the ballpoint pen, restraining the intimidating aura he showed unconsciously, "I can see when you tell lies. sort of thing."

Kanazawa Norie fell into a moment of silence.

Akashi is right, she is clearly clearer than anyone else, he can see through every subtle change in her.This is not simply because of "this is love" or "Akashi has extraordinary powers of observation", but because Akashi Seijuro pays more attention to her than anyone else.

He obviously knew it, but when he had the opportunity to explain everything, he still subconsciously concealed his own affairs.The same mistake has happened more than once, Kanzawa Norie has clearly told himself not to repeat the same mistake.

She even hated herself a little bit.

The girl silently took out the phone from her pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it towards Akashi.The red-haired boy finally showed a little surprise, and then put on an expressionless mask.

Neither sad nor angry, neither happy nor sad.

"That was not what I meant."

"──I know Ah Zheng doesn't mean that." Kanazawa Jihui fluently interfaced, "As long as I feel that I need to explain, I might as well just show Ah Zheng what bothers me. This may be more concise... I'm sorry, but in my current state, I'm afraid I can't explain things clearly in words."

Akashi's eyebrows became more serious.

It is rare for Kanzawa Norie to bluntly say that she is "not in good shape". What she does more often is to roll up her sleeves and go directly to it, without any scruples about her own ability to bear it.Akashi Seijuro once thought that this was not a good thing, and because of this, the girl was once trapped in a puzzle created by herself.

But he doesn't think it's any better now.Kanzawa Norie's weakness is based on her lack of confidence in herself, and once she was weak, Akashi began to think: What exactly oppressed her so much.

The red-haired boy brought her cell phone.

As expected, Kanzawa Norie's inbox is almost full of emails from himself and the other two members of Kanzawa's family, other than that, there are only functional things such as notifications---nothing from others , except for the most recent one.Under the signal of Kanzawa Norie, Akashi Seijuro opened it, and after a quick glance, the doubts in his heart not only did not alleviate, but intensified, "Isn't this a good thing? There are magazines that want your photos or something, Should it be a rare opportunity?"

Regardless of the things on the table, Kanzawa Norie leaned on it softly, her hair scattered all over the table, like algae swaying in the bottom of the water, "That's true. But at the moment when I had given up, I suddenly said this..."

"Do not want to?" Akashi Seijuro stared at the back of her head, "I thought you liked it."

"Private hobbies and treating hobbies as work are two different things. If you want to use an analogy," Kanzawa Norie's voice was muffled, "Although Ah Zheng likes to play basketball, he never seriously thought about becoming a professional basketball player." Players? Although one of the main reasons for wanting to get into Luoshan is basketball, Ah Zheng is also very clear that no matter how far away he is, basketball can no longer be considered as a factor, because there are other more important things to take into account. I am the same. Whether to develop this hobby as an amateur hobby or to take it seriously are two different things for the future, right? So at the moment when I have finished dreaming, receiving this email is simply a It's like being reminded when I'm about to forget after having a good dream.

"Don't you think it's a little...too late?"

She was lying face down on the table, and Akashi Seijuro couldn't see the girl's expression at all, so he could only pinch her chin and lift her whole head up so that he could look directly at him, "So you don't want to accept it?"

"It's better to say that it's useless to accept it... I never thought of accepting this invitation, and I didn't intend to reply to this email, but it made it a little difficult, difficult—Ah Zheng?"

Before the girl could finish speaking, the red-haired boy picked up her phone, unlocked it, quickly deleted the email, and returned the phone to her, "Is the problem solved now?"

"That's right, that's right..."

"That's fine." Akashi Seijuro picked up his pen again, "Continue to do the test paper."

Kanzawa Norie was still staring blankly at the young man sitting opposite, Akashi took the time to look up at her, and repeated his own words in a rare way, with a just right tough tone, "Concentrate on doing it."

Afterwards, Kamizawa Norie thought about why Akashi would do this.

In fact, the answer is very simple, right?

The authorities are fascinated.

Troubled by the past, Norie Kanzawa is blinded by her emotions and unable to make the wisest decisions.Akashi Seijuro is different, he not only has the calmness of a bystander, but also enough to influence Kanzawa Norie's decision.Just as Kanzawa Norie could help Akashi Seijuro when he was in distress, what Akashi did was to help her.

This relationship extends from a small thing and spreads to every aspect of life.In the following many, many years, the two people got along like this──

Where each other is weak, there will always be one person who becomes the other person's reliance.
