[Kuroko's Basketball] Our age

He has the appearance of seven or eight years old, but he is very similar to Akashi in every gesture, with a strong aura.

"Who of you just said that you are going to the kitchen in the north?"

"it's me."

I took a step forward: "I am Mitsuyo Shiraishi, please give me your advice."

"It's on my side, please give me more advice."

Renpo politely returned the gift: "Miss Baishi, is she going to the kitchen in the north?"

"Yes, Brother Ling and another friend of ours went there. I'm worried and want to see it."

"Really, there are foxfires over there. Generally, no one will go there at night, and if Brother Zheng... there will be absolutely no problem."

"Well, I still think it's better to go there. Does Master Ren think it's inconvenient?"

"Well...in that case, let me lead the way."

The boy looked like an adult in his clothes, and he took the flashlight in my hand while talking.

Seeing Jin's very reliable look, I couldn't help turning around and casting a contemptuous look at the boys on the same team.

——Sure enough, no matter what the situation is, the boys surnamed Akashi are the most reliable.

The boys behind him began to hum and haha ​​for a while, and then a quiet voice sounded.

"Well, if you can, I'll go too."

I couldn't help giving Heizi a thumbs up in my heart, and at the same time increased my sense of contempt for others—are those big guys really just empty?

There is no light in the corridor at night, and the weak light of the flashlight casts spots of light one by one. Ren, Heizi, and Risa and I started an adventure targeting the kitchen.

On the way, I learned from Ms. Lisa that the Jin family was still living here until a month ago. When they moved, they had to leave Ren to live here for a period of time for some reason. Since then, strange things have appeared in the This mansion.

"In other words, it's about this month..."

"It's because the masters are gone, so the ghosts are here to celebrate."

After a while, Heizi spoke quietly.

"Don't be so scary, Mr. Heizi."

Clenching the flashlight tightly, I forced myself to turn my attention to walking, but I faintly felt that something was wrong in front of me.

Not far in front of me, faint blue spots flashed and flashed, exuding some gloomy atmosphere.

"Then, what is that?"

"Calm down, Shiraishi-san."

"I'm calm."

"But the light of the flashlight is shaking." Heizi sighed, "Why don't I go and have a look."

"Mr. Heizi, don't go!"

I held him half-forced: "I will never find you when you go, really."

For some reason, Heizi, who never showed any emotion, made me feel that his expression was a little subtle.

"It's really okay, I'm just going to see."

He tried to break free from my hand, but even I was surprised, even though Heizi was the weakest one in the main selection, I was able to hold him with my strength.

bang bang-

The sound of something falling came from the kitchen, which was especially terrifying in this dark environment.My legs were weak at first, but my hand held Heizi with greater strength.

"Who?"

A voice came.

Fox fairy? Fox fairy? Since there will be a fox fire, it must be a fox fairy!I snapped off the switch of the flashlight, facing Heizi and lowered my voice: "Mr. Heizi, don't answer, I heard that something bad will happen if you answer."

"That, Shiraishi-san..."

"Did you hear that? Don't answer, especially..."

"Student Shiraishi." Heizi tried to raise his voice, sounding more and more helpless, "That's Ziyuan-kun."

The faint blue light gradually approached, and finally reached in front of us. When we raised our heads, the boy over two meters tall appeared in front of us.

"What, it's Little Heizai and Little Shitou."

Ziyuan was holding a bag of apples in his arms, and he was holding a nibble in his hand: "I found some good apples over there. Little Heizai and Little Shitou can go and get them if they want, but these are mine."

The head maid, Ms. Risa, showed a sad look: "That's an apple for curry tomorrow..."

No, Apple or something is fine.

I let go of Kuroko's hand, and tried to calm down: "Murakahara-kun, isn't Akashi-kun with you?"

"Xiao Chi...he said he was bored and went to bed."

"what?"

What, didn't he toss us to catch ghosts or something?

"Oh, by the way, he asked me to tell Xiao Shitou that if you can't solve the trouble, you won't even be able to sleep tonight."

Ziyuan bit the apple and said vaguely: "Hey, the little stone looks really unreliable. Fortunately, I found a midnight snack."

"... Murasakihara-kun, if you don't say this in front of me, I will be very grateful."

Jin, who had been silent all this time, showed a bored expression: "What, I'll go to bed if I'm fine, good night, Miss Shiraishi, Heizi-kun, and Murasakihara-kun, Risa..."

"Wait a minute, it's not over yet."

I reached out and stopped the boy: "I smell the truth."

"Eh?"

"Well, what should I say."

I straightened my expression and pointed at Ren: "The murderer is you... No, it's not a murder... How should I put it, anyway, it was you who did it, Ren?"

Ren's face froze for a moment, but he returned to normal in the next second, and immediately bowed his head: "I'm sorry, Miss Baishi, I don't know what brother Zheng wants to play, but I'm going to rest, forgive me."

The boy turned around and was about to leave, but Ziyuan stepped forward and stopped him: "Even if it's Xiaochi's younger brother, you have to listen to Xiaoshitou."

"Well, in short, the haunting is all a prank made by you and the maids, right? I don't know what the maids think, but you are the main messenger, right?"

Jin turned to look at me, without affirming or denying.

"First of all, there are people living here besides us, but Akashi-kun didn't explain this to us. I was surprised that Akashi-kun, who is usually very polite, would do this; secondly, our team members encountered people other than There are some monsters of Hyakki nocturnal and a bunch of urban legends. Although it was scary at first, if the premise that children instruct the maids to play pranks is substituted into it, it all makes sense; again, Akashi-kun told us here Strange things happened a long time ago, but Miss Risa just said it was a month ago, I’m afraid Akashi-kun was just talking casually, and what Miss Risa said is true, right? No, it should be said that Miss Risa knew the truth Akashi-kun showed a lack of interest in this matter, saying let us solve the trouble, that is, let us solve Ren-kun's prank, in my opinion, this seems to be what Ren-kun and Akashi-kun did agreement, and we become like experimental subjects.”

"... Are these your reasonings?"

"No, I'm not good at reasoning. It's just like encountering a math problem that I don't know how to do. After substituting the possible answers into the problem, I found that the conditions in the problem just happened. In the final analysis, the imagination accounted for more. In addition If you add some more, what Ren Jun did is as if he wants to drive us out."

Jin lowered his head, no longer facing my gaze.Footsteps came from the other end of the corridor, followed by Akashi's familiar voice.

"Jen, should you be satisfied with this?"

Gathering back in the front hall and drinking the tea made by Ms. Risa, Akashi slowly told us what happened.

When Ren's family moved out of here, because Ren had lived in this mansion since he was a child and had a strong affection for the place, he refused to move with his parents. Later, when he heard that we were going to live here, he was even more reluctant.Parents had no choice but to entrust this troublesome matter to Akashi, the most prestigious among his peers, so Akashi and Jin made an agreement that if we could solve the problems left by Jin, he would obediently move with his parents and give up the place to the We lived, so there was a farce tonight.

Eating the delicious snacks prepared by Ms. Risa and drinking the lightly fragrant tea, Ren obediently bowed his head to apologize to us and promised Akashi that he would pack his luggage and leave with his parents the next day. This time the story finally had a happy ending.

...Go to hell, except for the relief that Aomine's phone finally stopped ringing endlessly, I'm really not happy at all.

48 There is no retreat

After the farce of the day ended, the opening ceremony of the All-China League was held at the Yake Gymnasium in Kyoto the next day.Although it is not the first time to stand in such a place, but looking at the teenagers in sportswear and the reporters with cameras shuttling in and out of the gymnasium, it is the same as before... no, compared to a year ago The intense tension and tremors hit the heart.

One year ago, Teiguang was underestimated and broke into the All-China League with all kinds of strange winks. One year later, we can already stand here dignifiedly, dignifiedly among the wealthy schools that we used to envy, and declare to them— — This year’s champion is none other than Diguang!

On the first day of the opening ceremony, only the main draftees of each team and reporters were allowed to stay in the venue, and Momoi and I had to stay outside the gymnasium.It was the end of June, the temperature climbed to the peak little by little, and the sun seemed to pierce the human skin.Although we waited in the lobby of the gymnasium to avoid the sun, the heat gathered by the airtight crowd was really tormenting.

"Ah~~ I can't take it anymore, how long do I have to wait~~"

Momoi sat on the floor disregarding his image, holding a magazine in his hand as a fan: "Xiaobai, aren't you hot... what are you looking at?"

"NBA Eastern Conference Finals, Heat vs. Celtics." I pushed my iPad towards her, "Although it's a replay, it's still a game worth watching."

"I
