[Black Basket Miracle Black] Absent Shadow

"Where did little Heizi go? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

Kise, who had gone out to look for it many times, returned to Heizi's house, and sat down at the dining table dejectedly, looking at the table of dishes that they "carefully" prepared for Heizi, which was still eye-catching, without any appetite.It's rare that he worked so hard to find the aunt in the supermarket to ask about cooking skills. "Chizi... so hungry..." Ziyuan, who also returned without success, lay down on the table as soon as he came back.Although he had eaten a lot while cooking, that amount could not fill his bottomless stomach at all.And...unable to find Hei Zai.Although Midorima didn't speak, he just sat aside silently, but his not-so-good expression had already told several people that his mood was not much better.

"Ahhhh!!! Little Heizi was kidnapped, right?" When the atmosphere became low, Kise fell into his inextricable imagination again, "What to do, what to do, Little Heizi won't Have you been abducted and sold to a place we don't know? Little Kuroko...my little Kuroko..." "Ryota..." For this reason, Akashi could only cry out weakly, "Stop your absurdity imagination." Who in this world can tie Heizi?Whether he can be seen is still a question. "But I'm really worried about Little Heizi..." Kise muttered aggrievedly, ahhhhh!Where the hell are you, Little Heizi?

The clock on the wall has not stopped running, and the hour hand has already pointed to the number "8".

"You don't need to look for it anymore." Akashi said with a last look at the time. "Eh? Little Akashi, what if a little blackie..." Kise anxiously wanted to get up. "Think about it, there is nothing unusual today, but why Tetsuya doesn't go home so late, can't find it anywhere, and can't get through the phone." Akashi said calmly, he seemed to have an idea . "It must be because something happened to Little Heizi!" Kise blurted out without thinking.

"I don't think so." Midorima was also thoughtful after Akashi's prompt. "Heizi is not someone who is prone to accidents." After all, his magical sense of presence is really easy to use. "Where is Hei Zi..." Zi Yuan was still lying on the table, weak.

"Although it's just a guess, if Tetsu doesn't want us to find it, then it all makes sense, right?" Akashi said in a flat tone, but his eyes became serious.If Heizi hides, who can find him unless he wants to? "Little Heizi...why don't you want us to find it?" Kise couldn't think of a reason for Heizi to do so. "Heh, who knows." Akashi smiled dangerously, "However, if you do such a thing without authorization, you have to be punished."

"Little Akashi..." Huang Lai was stunned for a while, and then smiled, the smile was not as sunny as usual, but rather evil, "I agree~" "Hei Zi is not good, and he is going to be punished. Ziyuan also expressed his opinion, and a stern look flashed in his lazy eyes.Midorima still didn't speak, just pushed his glasses habitually, the reflective lenses covered something in his eyes.

"Then, let's eat. After all, I worked so hard to make it." Akashi's smile deepened, and the light in his eyes was hard to ignore.When the topic came to today's dinner again, there seemed to be another "crime" for Heizi. "To live up to our intentions, it's Xiao Heizi who went too far this time!" Kise smiled a little weirdly. "Well... I'm not polite." As if to vent his dissatisfaction with Heizi on the food, Ziyuan ate very vigorously.

"Oh, by the way, let me explain in advance." Akashi stopped what he was doing, and smiled at the three of them, "Tetsuya's room is mine tonight." "What~ little Akashi always takes advantage of it. "Although Huang Lai said dissatisfiedly, he didn't dare to refute. "Then what should I do? Let's sleep together in Little Green Room~" "Get lost!"

It was dark all around, and I couldn't see the scene in front of me clearly. In the haze... Who is talking?

"Although you won the championship, you don't look happy." With a friendly and calm tone, only a female voice could be heard. "Yes." The person who answered was vague, but his voice sounded so familiar. "Why?" "Everyone... has changed. We will never go back to the past." "You like them very much, right?" "Yes, but I want to protect them in my own way. It seems so ridiculous, but I will still insist on doing this." "You are still so attached to them." "Because I am a shadow, and they... are my indispensable light."

Here it comes again... Opening his eyes in the darkness, Akashi's strangely colored pupils were slightly gloomy.Turned over on Heizi's bed a few times, but still couldn't fall asleep. Sure enough, wouldn't it work without Zhe by his side?Akashi has come to sleep with Kuroko all night these days, because he found that as long as he has Kuroko by his side, that headache dream can stop.Only by falling asleep with Heizi can he sleep peacefully.But tonight... Heizi is not here.Even if he occupied his bed, it would not help.

And... what happened to the dream tonight?A completely different situation than before.The previous dreams have been recounting their memories in Teiko and the match between them and Heizi in high school. The content of the dream has never been separated from the "Generation of Miracles", but tonight's dream... Both the time and the characters have changed. up.He didn't know where it was, what time period it happened, or who the person was talking to.

Could it be... Are you reminding yourself of something?Akashi made a bold guess.These days, he is deliberately approaching Heizi, one reason is to have a good impression, and the other reason is to prove something from him, for example... Will Heizi know the existence of that dream and know something.Akashi was very concerned about Kuroko's attitude towards them. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Akashi could tell that Kuroko had complete trust in them from the bottom of his heart.This is really doubtful. Did Heizi really come to know their miracles when they came to them in the "generation of miracles"?I always feel... Heizi is hiding something.

That's what makes it interesting, though.In the darkness, Akashi raised the corner of his mouth.Finding the answer slowly is the most fun.He was looking forward to that day coming.And it's up to you to uncover those hidden veils with your own hands.

Tonight's dream, what message do you want to convey to yourself?

Hearing the sound of the wind rubbing against the curtains, Akashi glanced over there.The night sky outside the window is as deep and quiet as flannelette, even the stars are covered, only a little moonlight shines down.But... for some reason, Akashi was attracted by the desk by the window.As if something drove him forward, Akashi got off the bed and opened Kuroko's drawer...

The content inside is very ordinary, and there is nothing strange about it.The sundries are sorted and put away, tidy and clean.Inside is a black book, which looks like a notebook or something.Although he knew that doing so would be impolite and would infringe on other people's privacy, Akashi couldn't help but opened the book, feeling that if he didn't read it, he would miss something very important.With the subtle moonlight, what he saw was...it really was Tetsuya.Akashi couldn't help laughing.The notes are very complete, and the analysis is good.Do you like basketball that much?

Looking at the dense numbers and training items above, Akashi admired Kuroko's determination from the bottom of his heart.

This is... Akashi's hand turning the page suddenly stopped.Pick up the rectangular paper object in the notebook... In the dark room, the image reflected on it is faint...

Akashi's smile deepened.
