[Black Basket] On the Victory of the Emperor

80: IH game

The day of the quarterfinals.

"Ah, why don't we leave after the competition?"

Genwugu touched his hungry stomach and said, today's Luoshan match is the second match in the morning, and it was over long ago.

"To wait for Xiaozheng~ Today's game will include the Generation of Miracles game besides ours."

Ling Yang flipped through the match list and answered happily.

"Generation of Miracles..."

Genwugu calculated the schools that entered the quarterfinals, "Isn't that going to be another three hours?"

"No, it only takes an hour~"

Ling Yang shook her phone, "The match in Yangquan will be over before us in the morning, Xiaozheng is probably waiting for Tonghuang VS Haichang later."

"Tonghuang vs. Haichang?! Could it be Aomine Daiki and Kise Ryota?"

Ha Shan picked up Ling Yang's mobile phone, and there was indeed a match list at [-] o'clock in the afternoon written on it.

"Yes~"

From Ling Yang's reaction, it can be seen what he is happy for, "Aren't those two people very interesting compared to each other?"

"Yes."

Genwugu nodded.

Ling Yang looked at the time,

"Speaking of which, the competition is about to start soon, right? Where's Xiaozheng?"

Ling Yang looked around the lounge, looked at the dazed Hayama and Newugu, and finally decided to ask Dai.

"Perhaps they left us because they wanted to watch it by themselves?"

Dai turned a page nonchalantly.

Lingyang sighed in distress,

"No way……"

"Could it be that Akashi went to meet them?"

Hayama suddenly had an idea.

Ling Yang instantly became vigilant, he mobilized the three of them,

"Xiao Zheng must still be in the venue, let's go find it together! That's our captain!"

"That's right!"

Hayama expresses support

"Is it unnecessary?"

Dai sat motionless in the corner surrounded by the closet, "Akashi is not a child anymore."

Genwugu and Lingyang looked at each other, and tacitly mentioned Dai.

"Hey! What are you going to do?"

Seeing that the book fell to the ground, Dai wanted to reach out to pick it up.

"If you don't find Xiaozheng, you can't come back~"

The three of them and Dai who was carried by Genwugu walked out of the lounge, Ling Yang locked the door of the lounge and said to Dai.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Ye Shan took a military posture.

"trouble."

Dai asked Genwugu to put him down, and then walked away in a direction by herself.

"Then the quarter-finals, (afternoon session) the second game - Haichang High School VS Tonghuang Academy, start!"

The start of the game was announced on the radio, and Luo Shanzhong, who was looking for someone, chose to find a place to watch the game after thinking about it, and at the same time, pay attention to the auditorium.

Dai still walked around after the game started, he wanted to find a more comfortable position to watch the game.

However, just after turning a corner, he saw the person Ling Yang and the others had been looking for.

"What, you're in this kind of place, they've been looking for you."

Akashi stood hesitantly by the side of a load-bearing column and was blocked by the shadow of the load-bearing column, and he would not be able to find it if he ignored it.

"Ah, I know."

Akashi glanced at Dai, and then sent out the text message he was editing on his phone, "I didn't expect you to find me."

"Anyway, you don't want to hide, but you probably still watch the game alone, so I'm leaving."

Thinking that she knew where Akashi was so she could go back to the lounge, Dai was planning to leave.

"Wait a moment,"

Akashi stopped Dai, "Since you're here, let's watch together."

Now Dai didn't seem to be too easy to refuse. He thought about it, since it was a match between generations of miracles, it must be very exciting, so Dai didn't hesitate, and picked a good perspective beside Akashi.

Both of them are not talkative people, but Dai found it strange to stand with Akashi in the frozen atmosphere, and he pointed to the aces who were fighting fiercely in the field.

"Who do you think will win?"

"Qingfeng."

Akashi replied without hesitation.

Dai thought he would hesitate for a while, but she didn't expect to give the answer so simply.Could it be that there is also a big gap in strength between generations of miracles?

"Why Aomine? Isn't Kise also very good?"

"The current Kise can't reach the height of Aomine."

Akashi thought of the blond boy looking at the jumping on the field, and then said, "But soon..."

"Do you want to take a gamble? Since you think Aomine will win, then I'll bet on Kise, how about it?"

Akashi looked away from the game and looked at Dai, and asked softly,

"Do you really want to compare with me? No one knows their strength better than me. Even so, do you want to compare?"

Day paused, and said "cunning" softly, but he did give up the unwise choice of betting with Akashi.

"But if you want to gamble, it's not impossible,"

Akashi offered to make a bet.

"kindness?"

"Heizi is in this arena right now. Guess who he will cheer for, Aomine or Kise? Or neither."

The topic of the sixth person of phantom has always attracted Dai's attention immediately, and after Akashi said so, he immediately looked towards the audience.

"If you guess right, I lose, and if you guess wrong, I win."

The bet seemed to favor Akashi, but the decision was in Dai's hands.

There is a one-third chance of winning, and a two-thirds chance of failure, but even so, Dai agreed without hesitation.If he loses to Akashi, he will not lose anything, after all, the opponent is someone who has never failed, but on the contrary, if he wins Akashi, even if he wins this kind of bet, he will feel a sense of satisfaction spontaneously .That being the case, why didn't he agree?

Dai focused on Kise and Aomine, and he had heard a lot about the miracles between generations. Aomine was Kuroko's predecessor, the target that Heizi wanted to hit, and Kise was Heizi's previous friend. A defeated underling and a good former teammate.

Generally speaking, they will cheer for Kise, especially from Akashi's words, Kise is the weak side.

--but……

Dai glanced at Akashi next to him, and Akashi didn't seem nervous about the bet at all.

The originally simple question became complicated in an instant. This may be the result of reading too many novels. At this time, he was thinking about various situations in his mind.

——Akashi should know who I'm going to choose, right?But what if Akashi knows that I know he knows who I'm going to choose?It must have been designed from the start, right?Sure enough, you still pretend not to know?But what if Akashi knows that I know that he knows that I know who I'm going to choose...

Dai shook his head and turned his gaze to the auditorium. He hasn't found where Heizi is yet, but he is trying to think from the perspective of the phantom sixth person.

——Sure enough, the feelings for my ex-Kwang should be different from those for my ex-teammates, so...

"He will cheer for Qingfeng!"

Dai gave her answer.

As if he didn't know the answer, Akashi replied lightly,

"Really? Then wait for the answer to be revealed at the end."

It was only then that Dai realized that she was so serious about a question that hadn't yet been answered, she was so stupid.

The game in the arena was already in full swing and reached the fourth quarter, but Akashi suddenly took out his mobile phone and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?"

During the halftime, Ling Yang sent a message to Dai to be optimistic about Akashi, and Dai had to ask one more question at this time.

"Well, pick up a friend."

Akashi checked the email and then closed the phone. He glanced at the game that was about to end in a few minutes, and threw a key to Dai, "I won't continue to read, this is the key to the lounge, you can go back by yourself gone."

"Wait, what about the bet?"

Dai suddenly remembered the bet from before.

"Ah, that ah..."

Akashi thought for a while, "Go and confirm for yourself."

Before Dai could do anything, Akashi had already left in a hurry.

"You don't know you've lost, do you?"

Dai muttered silently, staying where she was and watching the last few minutes of the game.

***

In the hall full of people coming and going, Akashi looked around as if looking for someone.

"Yo~"

A palm was patted on Akashi's shoulder, and Akashi turned around as expected, and there was a face that could be called a handsome man.

"Long time no see, Chen Ye."

Akashi laughed.

"Well, Ah Zheng is here to pick you up, long time no see!"

I have chatted with most believers for several years, but meeting them is very rare.

Sensing the gradually gathering gaze, Akashi said to Himuro,

"Let's talk in the car first."

Himuro nodded happily, and followed Akashi out of the airport.

"It seems that I came back a little late. The national competition should be over by now, right?"

The ice room has also learned a little about the domestic situation. He really wanted to come back before the national competition, but it was a pity that something happened in the United States and it was delayed.

"No, it's still the quarterfinals."

"But when I finish the transfer procedures, it's almost over. It's a pity that I can't compete with Ah Zheng soon."

Iceburo put on a regretful expression.

Although he knew that Himuro did it on purpose, Akashi still followed his will,

"If you want to compare, you can do it anytime."

"Really?"

The ice room really changed its regret.

"But there's something I want to ask you to do."

Akashi was waiting to make this request with Himuro.

"Huh? What is it, tell me?"

"You transferred to Yangquan University, right?"

Akashi and Himuro confirmed it.

"Yes, because I have been living in Akita County before going abroad, and I plan to study in Akita County this time for convenience. If I remember correctly, Ah Zheng, one of your former teammates is also in Yangquan, right?"

"Yes, this is exactly what I want to say about him, and I want you to... take care of him."

"!!"

Received such a request from Akashi out of the blue, Himuro was stunned for a moment, but felt uncomfortable after recovering, "Is this the only thing Ah Zheng wants to ask me?"

"Yes."

"...Okay, since it's Ah Zheng's request."

Bingshi laughed darkly, and now he suddenly wanted to see what kind of person that Miracle in Yangquan was.

Before Akashi knew it, the match between Aomine and Kise had also come to an end, and when they were about to leave the gymnasium, they... met everyone in Luoshan.

"That school uniform!"

Momoi pointed forward and shouted.When they were leaving the field, Seirin, Umijo, Tonghuang, and Midorima Takao, who came to watch, had a round, and the tense atmosphere was interrupted by Momoi before it condensed.

"Luoshan"

Just mentioning this word can immediately make people think of a series of people or things.

"Akashi-kun/Akashi/Little Akashi?"

Several people from Diguang in the past shouted out immediately, but when they looked over, they realized that there was no such expectant figure at all.

"Ah, it's so lively~"

Ye Shan looked curiously at the group of people gathered together.

"he is……"

Aida thought for a moment.

"Hayama Kotaro."

Mu Ji behind her answered for her.

Aida immediately reacted and exclaimed,

"Thunder Beast? Could it be that the rest are Yasha Mibuchi Reo and Gang Ligen Taketani Yongkichi?!"

"Hey, senior, what is that?"

Kise asked Kasamatsu beside him with an ignorant face.

"He is the uncrowned five generals of the generation second only to miracles!"

Kasamatsu glanced at Kise, "Could it be that you never knew about it? After all, you are a strong enemy, right?"

"What is crowned but not crowned? Does that kind of person exist? Second only to us?"

Aomine had an expression of "I am invincible".

"Eh?"

Momoi was surprised, everyone knew about the five generals without a crown.

"That's right, I haven't heard of it, so should Xiao Heizi and Xiao Lujian?"

Kise echoed Aomine's words, smiling extremely brightly.

"Hi, never heard of that, sorry,"

After Heizi replied with a straight face, he even apologized to several people in Luoshan, but he didn't feel any sincerity at all.

"Tsk, don't waste time for irrelevant people, Takao, let's go."

Midorima's reaction was exactly the same as that expressed by Kuroko and the others.

"Well, Xiaozhen, wait a little longer."

Takao felt that there was a good show to watch, so he kept Midorima.

In the eyes of others, the reactions of the Miracle Four were absolutely unworthy of a beating. Others were fine, but Heizi's senior was clearly one of the five generals without a crown. How could he not know?

This is an obvious provocation!

Although I don't understand why the Generation of Miracles will fight three of the five generals without a crown, but it seems that no one intends to mediate.

Looking at the Luoshan people again, one could almost see the figurative signs of anger on their heads.As the generation of miracles who have been overwhelmed by the miracles since middle school, they themselves have no good impressions of the miracles, and now they are naturally directly angered like this.

"Speaking of which, you are Xiaozheng's former teammates, right?"

Ling Yang spoke first.

"Former teammate"

This word instantly touched the wounds of several people, and Ling Yang's address made them even more resentful, and the atmosphere suddenly became dignified.

The teams found that something was wrong with their aces, but before Miracle could refute, Vulcan took the lead to stand up.

"You guys are Akashi's teammates, right? Tell me where he is!"

Kagami's desire to fight Akashi was ignited again.

"Vulcan Lord?"

Kuroko raised his head, wondering why Kagami suddenly mentioned Akashi.

"What are you doing with Akashi?"

With the situation of Qingfeng and others ahead, even Ye Shan looked at Vulcan vigilantly.

"Of course I want to compete with him!"

The words of Fire God instantly dispelled everyone's doubts. Everyone thought that Fire God just wanted to defeat a stronger enemy, because this is the character of Fire God. No one thought that Seirin's new ace would know Akashi.

Ling Yang glanced at the Miracles who seemed relaxed but nervous, chuckled lightly,

"Xiaozheng won't stay here to watch this kind of boring game, I'm really sorry~"

Hearing this, Kise's face turned pale instantly, and he hoped that Akashi would be there at this moment, and hoped that Akashi would not have seen him fail.

"There's also Seirin's one. If you want to compete with Xiaozheng, you must at least make it to the finals."

Vulcan and Heizi stopped talking, and even Midorima clenched the lucky thing in his hand.

"Hey, whoever you are, tell me where Akashi is!"

Different from them, Qingfeng, who is currently promoted, asked.

"You can't see it."

Ling Yang thought of the new news sent by Akashi just now, and said it together, "Even if you make it to the finals, Xiaozheng will not appear in the next competition."

"What's the meaning!!"

Some made a sound and some didn't make a sound, but the question was the same.

"That's what it means."

Hayama spread his hands, "Akashi doesn't want to participate in the next competition."

Ling Yang gave others a wink at the right time, and the Luoshan people no longer stayed where they were, but planned to leave this crowded place.

"Wait for me!"

Qingfeng ran a few steps and rushed up, as if he had bumped into something, but he didn't care, and directly blocked in front of them, "Speak clearly to me."

"We have already made it very clear. Xiaozheng's original words were "I don't plan to play in the next game."

Ling Yang walked around the edge of Qingfeng.

"That is to say, Akashi doesn't want to compete with you, doesn't want to see you, that's all."

For a moment, Ling Yang deliberately distorted Akashi's original intention and told Miracle Gate.

"This is really bad..."

Imayoshi spread his hands helplessly, he had already seen that Aomine's fighting spirit was gone because of his rare appearance in the match against Generation Miracle.

The people in Luoshan left in a cool manner. A group of people stayed where they were and saw that there was nothing wrong, so they led their teams and planned to disperse.

"Does Qingfeng-kun know what he bumped into just now?"

Before leaving, Heizi suddenly asked Qingfeng.

"It seems to have hit something, but it should be my illusion."

Qingfeng thought for a while, the one closest to him before was Genwugu, if he bumped into him, he wouldn't be able to feel it.

"Is it……"

Heizi frowned and murmured softly, "Could it be that I misread it?"

Heizi's reaction was not quite right, Aomine, Kise and Midorima were not in a hurry to leave, waiting for him to finish speaking.

"Heizi, what did you see?"

Green asked.

"When Aomine-kun hit something, I saw a figure fall down, but then I was blocked by a big player, so I knew I was wrong."

For some unknown reason, Heizi felt a sense of crisis, different from when he first met everyone in Luoshan, it was a stronger feeling.

"Probably an illusion."

Kise also thought about it, but found nothing.

"probably……"

Even so, there is still a trace of doubt floating in Heizi's heart.

The author has something to say:
