[Kuroko's Basketball] Our age

There is a hidden personality, and the hidden personality of Haizaki, which I don't know, is being tapped out little by little.

Of course Midorima is also aware of this, although he didn't say anything, it has been reflected in the training and competition arrangements.

I couldn't help frowning when I got the practice match schedule for the next week. The practice match schedule for Haizaki was obviously less than half of the previous one. I can already imagine what he looked like when he saw this plan.

"You should understand, Shiraishi, give him a little more chance to compete, and our troubles may increase."

Shintaro Midorima, the organizer of the plan, pushed his glasses and pointed out my worries in a few words.

"But I saw it again," I said slowly, staring at the form in my hand, "A few days ago Haizaki-kun was fighting again."

"He should have a measure of that kind of thing, so he was not checked by the school once. Besides, this is his own business, which is beyond the scope of our interference."

Staring at Midorima's tablet with a serious expression, I have nothing to say, no, I should understand this kind of thing better than him.

"What, Shiraishi, when is it your turn to control me?"

"Haisaki-kun, shouldn't it be enough? Don't forget that if you are hit by the teacher, you will inevitably be suspended from the game."

"Of course I know, I have no intention of giving up on basketball, besides, you can't do without me, right, Shiraishi?"

Huizaki also understands that Teiko is still growing up now, and as one of the five main players, he is so strong that Teiko must be indispensable if he wants to win.

Although he is not reconciled, although he does not like his arrogance, this is the truth.

On the second day of training, Haizaki did not show up.

"Xiaobai doesn't seem to be in a good mood recently?"

After tidying up the rest room of the first army, Momoi sat down beside me intimately.She smiled easily as usual, and with her pretty appearance, she always gave people the impression that she was approachable.But after getting along for so long, I understand that when I ask such a question, I may not be able to hide anything from her.

"The matter of Haizaki-kun is really a headache. Akashi-kun will be back soon, so he will definitely be angry if he sees it?"

"Uh... well, at least for now Haizaki-kun has no plans to give up basketball, isn't that enough? Aomine-kun also said that Haizaki-kun is one of the few people in the club who enjoys playing with him. "

The pink-haired girl smiled wryly, trying to speak words of relief.

"But, sure enough, we are not as good as Akashi-kun..."

I raised my head, and the lights on the roof made my eyes a little swollen.

If Akashi was here, we wouldn't have this tricky feeling, if Akashi was here, he would definitely have everything under control.At the end of the day, we have always relied on the captain.

"What exactly are Akashi-kun and Kuroko-kun training for?"

"Oh, I heard Aomine-kun say that."

Momoi faced me, and deliberately lowered her voice like a child sharing a secret: "Aomine-kun, he found the place where Akashi-kun and Kuroko-kun practiced, what they seem to be practicing... Misdirection... Hey, Xiaobai, do you want to see it? ?”

Momoi winked and showed a mischievous expression.

"……Not so good?"

"It doesn't matter. It's just an ordinary street basketball court. Just pretend to pass by. Besides, since we want to train to become the main players, we will see the result sooner or later. It doesn't matter if we see it sooner."

Momoi really did what he said, he couldn't help but hold me back when I was about to leave, and couldn't allow me to refuse.

The sky outside was completely dark, it was already late autumn, and the wind was mixed with the coolness that invaded the bone marrow.Under such circumstances, it is really painful to train outdoors. What exactly is Akashi thinking about?

The street basketball court that Momoi took me to was a little far from the school. After taking the bus for half an hour and walking for 10 minutes, the court covered by bushes appeared in front of me.

It was close to eight o'clock in the evening, and the teenagers who were supposed to play here lively and lively had long since disappeared, leaving only a pale light.

"Momoi-san, are you sure you remember correctly?"

Looking at the empty stadium, I couldn't help but sigh. Although I trust Momoi enough, I really don't dare to trust her childhood sweetheart who has nothing but basketball in her mind.

"You can't be wrong, Aomine-kun told me several times!"

"So the problem is not with you. Even Momoi-san, who is good at collecting information, is still useless if the person who collects information is wrong. How could Aomine-kun..."

"That, I'm sorry."

A faint-sounding voice suddenly appeared behind me, and Momoi's scream sent a chill down my spine, and then I realized that I had seen this appearance before, and when I turned around, it turned out to be Kuroko Tetsuya's calm eyes .

"Kuro... Kuroko-kun, ah, we just passed by today, are you practicing here? Akashi-kun isn't with you?"

"Well, Akashi-kun said that today will be later, let me practice alone first."

"Is that so? That's a pity."

I shrugged at Momoi, indicating that it would be better for her to leave before Akashi came. The pink-haired girl's eyes suddenly changed, and I couldn't help frowning when I looked in the direction of her eyes. A certain name was silently spoken——Haisaki Xiangwu.

Haizaki had obviously seen us, the boy with a flirtatious smile under the streetlight walked towards us.

"What a coincidence, Shiraishi and Momoi."

"We just took a detour to buy something, but Haizaki-kun, you didn't go to today's training, did you?"

"Tsk, it's not that easy for me to learn by hand. Besides, practice doesn't necessarily follow your pace, does it?"

He gently raised his arm, and the basketball circled leisurely in his hand.

"Today, those guys can't help but fight...Wow, who is this guy?!"

Haizaki raised his finger and pointed at Kuroko, while the latter bowed his head politely and said hello: "Good evening, Haizaki-kun."

"It's Heizi Tetsuya-kun of the Three Armies."

"From the three armies? Did you come together?"

"No, Momoi-san and Shiraishi-san just passed by by chance, and I'm here to practice."

"Practice? Ah, running so far alone to train alone? It's really hard."

Haizaki seemed to be thinking of something, and made a playful smile: "Since it's been so hard, the training should have achieved some results, hey, can you let me see?"

"Wait, Haizaki-kun!"

That smile was so dangerous that I couldn't help but think of everything that happened in the basketball court a few days ago. When I called him to stop, I was thrown a frivolous but murderous look, which sent a chill down my spine.

The ball was thrown slightly in an arc and landed in Heizi's hand, the boy with aqua blue hair sighed softly.

"I have nothing for Haizaki-kun to see, which may disappoint you."

"Ah, that's okay, how about just playing around?"

Haizaki couldn't tolerate Kuroko's refusal, and pushed Kuroko into the court while talking.

"Ten balls, how about you win if you snatch one from me?"

Haizaki threw his jacket aside, slightly lowered his center of gravity and began to dribble, and Kuroko's thin and small body also exuded a tense aura.

I swallowed my saliva, and couldn't help but began to look forward to it. What kind of strength does this boy who has been specially trained by Akashi have?

but--

weak--

So weak——

Haizaki is undoubtedly a master of masters, I have seen many situations where he and his oneonone guys have the upper hand, but Kuroko... he is too weak.Whether it's a breakthrough or a steal, his movements are rigid and inflexible. In addition, his physique is not dominant. Even Diguang's ordinary players can easily beat him. No wonder he has not been able to be promoted to the second army.

"Tsk, are you kidding me?!"

It was only six or seven balls, and Haizaki was already furious, he threw the ball and grabbed Heizi's collar: "Be a little more serious, boy, who do you think you are fighting with? It's me, the starting five of Teiko! Do you start kicking your nose on your face just to show you some face?!"

Faced with Haizaki's anger, Kuroko remained calm: "I'm really serious, it's Haizaki-kun who is too strong."

"Haisaki-kun, enough is enough!"

"Enough is enough, you bastard!"

It wasn't Momoi who was next to me who made the last sound, but a boy wearing the uniform of an unknown school appeared on the field after turning around.

"I meet this guy every day. He practices so hard every day. You are a guy who doesn't deserve basketball at first glance. If you want to grab other people's courts, you have to fight me first!"

The boy's height is basically the same as Haizaki's, his hair stands upright like a mop, and his voice is surprisingly loud. The first impression is that he is a hot-blooded basketball idiot—and, he seems to have misunderstood something subtly?

"Hey, Xiaobai, I seem to have an impression of this person."

"Uh... I seem to have seen it in a video somewhere?"

I stared at him trying to remember but couldn't figure out why, but Haizaki had already begun to accept the other party's provocation.

"Interesting, you guy. It's just a few days to be in a panic. How about it? Let's play a game?"

"Hit it! Come on boy, I'll show you how powerful Inoue-sama in Uesaki is!"

Uesaki... Inoue... The two names are connected together, and something in the memory is aroused.

"Wait a minute, Haizaki-kun!" Momoi stepped forward and stopped in front of Huizaki, "Isn't there a rule that you can't play games with people from other schools without permission? Do you want Akashi-kun to punish you not to play?"

"Get out of the way, Momoi."

Haizaki shook his hand: "How can it be possible to prevent me from playing?! Unless you don't want to win the All-China League next year, right?"

"Wait, Haizaki-kun!"

"Stop, Haizaki."

One hand was in the way of pushing Momoi away.
