"Ayako, I won't give it to you no matter what."

"This kind of thing is beyond your control."

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Mitsui's mouth, and then his expression turned serious, the basketball in his hand popped out and hit Miyagi's shoulder.

"Okay, let's concentrate on practicing! I'm going over there!"

"Come on, I'm not afraid of you."

Miyagi let out a low snort, and immediately bowed down, staring intently at every movement of the other party.

"Basketball too, and Ayako too!"

**********

"Ayako."

In the distance, Haruko waved to her with an innocent and cute smile.

"This way."

Ayako's expression softened a little. Haruko on the left side of the venue was talking and laughing happily with a slim and capable girl.The girl is Ayako Inoue, the manager of the basketball club, whom Mitsui met the day she kicked the gym.It was precisely because of her innocence that the situation finally fell in an irreversible direction like Waterloo.Seeing Ayako looking at herself with probing eyes, Ayako hastened to step forward.

"I'm Ayako Shimizu from Class [-], meeting you for the first time!"

Caizi was startled slightly in surprise, and then smiled lightly.

"you know me?"

Meeting her confused eyes, Ayako pursed her lips.This senior was the only one Mitsui admitted to liking.During the riots, Mitsui had personally stated that he liked her. Although he didn't know if it was true or not, even if it was just to stimulate Miyagi, who was deeply in love with Caiko, after all, he still cared in his heart.

She looked sideways at the field.Mitsui made a short throw, the ball reached his left hand, passed Miyagi, took off directly, and scored a layup.The sequence of actions is clean and beautiful.There was a loyal smile on his face, but Ayako was still sensitive to the sense of isolation exuding from his body, obviously not fully integrated into the team, and his figure was very lonely.

Caizi followed her gaze and couldn't help laughing.

"Elementary school girl, you have a good eye, Mitsui-senpai is outstanding!"

Ayako immediately blushed all over her cheeks.

"Maybe a miracle will really happen this year, and it's not necessarily true."

Caizi glanced at the crowd who were fighting for it in full swing, and murmured.

"After all, for Akagi, Kigure, and Mitsui-senpai, this is the last summer."

Ayako stared deeply at Mitsui's figure, and sighed inaudibly: As long as he is there, miracles will definitely happen!Just because he himself is a miracle!

"Haruko!"

From a long distance away, Sakuragi ran over from the corner in two steps in three steps.

"Did you come to watch today's game?"

"Sakuragi!"

Caizi couldn't help frowning.

"You still have [-] basic ball control, don't be lazy!"

"It's the basics again!"

Boss Sakuragi was unhappy, and looked at Caizi unwillingly.

"I'm a genius, why can't I just slam dunk?"

"idiot."

From a distance, Rukawa Feng's mocking voice came.

"What did you say!"

Sakuragi turned around angrily.

"Are you jealous of this genius?"

"Stop talking in your sleep!"

The paper fan in Ayako's hand tapped on Sakuragi's shoulder, giving him a blank look.

"How important basic skills are, don't you understand? What's more, you don't even know the rules of basketball, you are a beginner."

"Well……"

Sakuragi glared at Ayako dissatisfied.

"Sakuragi!"

Haruko opened her eyes wide and smiled sweetly.

"Although the training is very boring, and it is not as attractive as the trick dunk, but if the foundation is not stable, it is useless in the field, and it is impossible to beat the opponent."

Sakuragi was stunned, his mouth distorted into a strange shape.He murmured "What a nuisance" in a low voice, and immediately put his hips on his hips and burst out laughing.

"Miss Haruko is really gentle and considerate! Of course, this genius knows the importance of the foundation. Without a solid foundation, you can never dominate the rebound. What is two hundred basic possessions! Don't underestimate people!"

While talking, he squinted at Miyagi maliciously, and sneered lowly.

"you……"

Sakuragi teased her directly, causing Caizi to raise her paper fan with an angry face and wanted to hit it again, but Sakuragi ran away in a hurry.

"I can't stand him."

Ayako glared at Sakuragi, and let out a sigh of relief.

**********

Rukawa Feng cut in quickly, raising his left arm slightly.Yasuda frowned nervously, and his body leaned to the left.A cold light flashed in Rukawa's eyes, Yasuda regretted secretly: Oh no, I made a mistake in judgment!I saw Rukawa jumping up into the air, and in an instant, he poured a blue ball vigorously, and the shaking basket buzzed.Everyone was so startled that they stopped their movements and looked at this side in unison.Mitsui's face darkened a little. Two years later, newcomers came out in large numbers, and the strength of this supernova in front of him was indeed not to be underestimated.

Ayako's eyes shifted to him, and she was startled suddenly.Only then was he surprised to find that Mitsui was still training in a T-shirt and trousers.It was the season of May at this time, the enthusiasm of the early summer was rippling in the air, and there was a kind of warm laziness in the surroundings.

His clothes were drenched with sweat, trembling slightly with the rise and fall of his chest, and his short-cut hair glowed with a faint blue light under the light and shadow.Mitsui was already very tired. Although his skills were still dazzling, his physical strength had dropped significantly.Ayako's eyes moved down, and there was a burst of pain in her heart. Could it be that his leg injury has not completely healed?

"Rukawa..."

Haruko stared at the black-haired boy obsessively, with a strange look in her eyes.

"He's really good!"

Ayako looked sideways at her, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"anthomaniac."

"what?"

Haruko blushed and pouted.

"I'm happy for my brother. With such a master in the team, my brother's dream may really come true."

"Aren't you the same?"

Ayako chuckled, and narrowly approached Ayako.

"Senior Mitsui came to make trouble, who was the first to rush out and stand in front of him? Don't deny it, although it's a bit overpowering."

"Sister..."

This time it was Ayako's turn to blush.

"But having said that, if Senior Mitsui didn't have the two-year gap, he might be the trump card of the team, maybe he would be the captain."

Caizi turned to look at everyone in the arena.

"After all, he was the most valuable player in junior high school, and his level has not decreased at all."

"yes."

There was a gentle smile on Ayako's lips.Over there, Mitsui jumped lightly, with a flick of his wrist, and the basketball in his hand went into the basket neatly, making a crisp sound of wiping the net.

"I didn't expect the senior who cut off his long hair and returned to the court to be so handsome!"

Caizi let out a low moan of admiration.

"I don't know who is stronger between him and Rukawa Kaede?"

"Senior Mitsui!"

"Rukawa-san..."

Haruko and Ayako looked at each other and spoke in unison.Caizi was stunned.

"Senior Mitsui is good, but I think Rukawa Kaede is stronger."

Haruko whispered shyly.

"No way."

Ayako glared at her.

"Mitsui-senpai was the MVP in junior high school!"

"So what? He hasn't played for two years. Do you think that someone who hasn't played basketball for two years is better than the ace of the current team? Let alone Rukawa-san who is at his peak!"

Haruko, who was devoted to defending Rukawa Kaede, defended unhappily, completely oblivious to the seriousness in her tone.

"So what if the level is high?"

Ayako, who deliberately teased her, retorted not to be outdone.

"After all, Rukawa never won the MVP, and in the practice match with Lingnan, he lost to that Sendo Akira!"

"..."

Ayako's words hit Haruko's weakness, she glared at Ayako with tongue-tied eyes, and after a while she stomped her feet lightly:

"That was an accident, an accident! Rukawa-san will definitely defeat Sendo! It's just that the time has not come yet."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Ayako dodged a few steps with a smile, and blinked.

"If Mitsui-senpai is here, we will never lose!"

"Ayako Shimizu!"

Feeling that she was really going to get angry, Haruko couldn't help frowning angrily.

"It's too much, I'm not happy!"

Ayako was taken aback and laughed.Facing Haruko's angry appearance, she didn't care at all.

"Okay, Senpai is Rukawa's senior after all, it's normal to be stronger than Rukawa, so don't be angry."

"What the hell are they doing?"

Everyone turned their faces to the sidelines neatly.Mitsui looked around in embarrassment, Akagi had a dark face, Sakuragi was already so angry that she looked at Haruko with tears in her eyes.Mu Mu stared at him helplessly, with a funny and sympathetic look in his eyes.

Inexplicably becoming the topic of conversation, Mitsui stared sharply at Ayako, with an expression of impatience gradually appearing on his face.

"Don't embarrass me here!"

Surprised by his undisguised hatred, the hurt Ayako lowered her head helplessly, apologizing in an almost inaudible voice as if instinctively reacting.

"sorry!"

"cut!"

Rukawa Feng breathed a sigh of relief, completely ignoring everything that happened, and turned around silently to continue practicing.

"Hello, Mitsui."

Miyagi smiled and touched Mitsui's shoulder.

"Your girlfriend is so cute!"

"Do you want me to say this to Ayako?"

Mitsui, who didn't understand why he treated Ayako with that attitude, felt a strong sense of self-loathing in his heart.Just couldn't be honest with her.Mitsui turned around abruptly, ignored Ayako, and left a word indifferently.

"Again, she's not my girlfriend."

"Hey, you can't say that!"

Miyagi peeked at Ayako with infinite sympathy, and was obviously displeased with Mitsui's reaction.

"She'll hear it, poor thing."

Ayako stood on the spot with a snow-white face, feeling her chest was squeezed tightly like a sponge.Is it wrong to like someone?It would be fine if you never liked him, if you never met him, you would never face him
