unsaved world

This is already the tenth time.

Regarding the fact that Yukikawa Rin was invited by the captain of the basketball team to be a substitute after arriving at school.

Although his attitude was sincere and his pleading gesture was pitiful, Yukikawa Rin still received a righteous refusal on the grounds that he would not do so.

"It doesn't matter, we can teach you. There is still one week before the league. Sister Rin is so smart, she will definitely be able to learn it quickly, and she is only a substitute for me, so don't worry about playing too much."

Seeing the tall captain who blatantly bribed with a series of items such as milk tea pudding, begged bitterly, was rejected again, and walked out of the classroom dejectedly, which made Mao Lilan who was passing by couldn't help but ask her.

"Why do you want Xiao Lin to go?"

The female captain looked disappointed, and after a moment of silence, he let out a long sigh, and said:

"Our girls' basketball club has very few freshmen every year, and almost none this year. If it continues, it will be abolished by the school. If the popular junior girl Rin joins the basketball team temporarily this time, it will definitely attract many girls. Interested in women's basketball."

After hearing this, Mao Lilan suddenly realized, and said, "Ah, is this the reason?"

"Otherwise what do you think it is?" The female captain blinked suspiciously.

"I thought..." Mao Lilan nodded apologetically, "Senior sister wants Xiao Lin to replace the injured girl on the basketball team to participate in the league."

"Are you talking about Xiangli?" The female captain was helpless and funny, waving her hands and said, "Although this guy is injured a little, it's not so bad that he can't play."

After a pause, she shrugged helplessly and said, "Besides, if I replace Xiangli, I will definitely be beaten by her every day."

Mao Lilan was amused by the behavior of the female captain senior sister. After thinking about it, she thought that she might be able to help Xiao Lin. After sending the senior sister away, she went back to the classroom to talk to Xue Chuanlin.

As he was walking a few steps, he felt a weight on his shoulders. He turned his head and saw that it was his childhood sweetheart Kudo Shinichi. He looked a little depressed, with his eyelids closed and some obvious dark circles under his eyes.

"Xinyi, didn't you sleep well yesterday?" Mao Lilan raised her eyebrows in doubt, "Or did you go to investigate the case again?"

Kudo Shinichi shook his head, and glanced at Yukikawa Rin who was calm and composed from the corner of his eyes. How should I put it, because of that stupid remark yesterday, he really spent the whole night thinking carefully about whether he did something wrong, but he did Still have no idea.

Mao Lilan didn't talk to Kudo Shinichi any more, she just wanted to help her senior persuade Xiao Lin, so she turned around and called her name.

"Little Rin."

Yukikawa Rin, who heard someone calling him, temporarily stopped talking with the people next to him, and looked at Mao Lilan who was standing a few meters away. Behind Mao Lilan, there was Kudo Shinichi who gave him some complicated eyes.

This time, Kudo Shinichi's eyes were no longer as irritable and dissatisfied as before. Yukikawa Rin, who had noticed this somewhat, nodded and smiled, polite as always.

Of course, in the eyes of others, it was just a simple polite smile.

The raised angle of the corner of the mouth, the curvature of the corner of the eye, the position of the gaze, and the similarity of all the habits made Kudo Shinichi frown in an instant, turning his eyes away in distaste, it was just a smile, but it still made him feel lost in his heart. You should be so helpless.

Sure enough, he still hated the way she smiled.

Any kind of laugh is annoying.

Mao Lilan on the side didn't pay attention to Kudo Shinichi's subtle emotions, but stepped forward and asked with a little hesitation:

"Just now, the senior from the basketball team came to you again, Xiao Lin still doesn't want to be a substitute for the basketball team?"

Xue Chuanlin frowned helplessly, and said in embarrassment:

"Ah, because I really don't know much about basketball, it would be bad to drag the basketball team back. It's a very important game for them."

The reason why she refused again and again was because she didn't want the basketball team to lose the game because of herself. She was indeed a kind-hearted little Rin as always.

Mao Lilan smiled understandingly, and then thought of the lost appearance of her senior. It would be a pity if the women's basketball club that had persisted for so long was abolished. She secretly clenched her fist again, thinking that she should try to persuade her OK.

"Ah er, don't worry too much about Xiao Lin, it's not just Xiao Lin who is competing, there are other seniors..." She tried her best to organize her words, but her words were somewhat stumbled.

"Then I'll try harder."

When she paused to think about the next sentence, Yukikawa Rin seamlessly answered this sentence. When Mao Lilan was still a little unbelievably dazed, Xiao Rin's eyes were clean, and she repeated with a light smile:

"I said, although joining the basketball team is just a substitute, I have to practice harder."

She said the repeated words with a bit of humor, coupled with a relaxed and warm smile, which easily resolved Mao Lilan's hesitation and nervousness, and then laughed.

Standing behind Mao Lilan, Kudo Shin took a look at Mao Lilan, the girl bent her eyes and grinned happily, and then glanced at Yukikawa Rin, that smile always made him think it was a disguise.

Obviously, it is different from that time.

Talk about that time with that friend.

Thinking this way, when Xue Chuanlin looked at him, he somewhat hastily avoided his sight, turned around and walked to his seat.

The reason for this is really because he couldn't stop rejecting her, Kudo Shinichi thought so.

After school that day, he practiced with other key players of the football club in preparation for the school league, and sat on the lawn to rest after a few rounds of practice.

"Come on, let's drink some water."

Senior high school Asami Uchida, who is the manager of the football club, will buy water for the players after practice.

The team members who took the water took turns saying thank you, and from time to time they praised the beautiful and gentle Asami-senpai. Kudo Shinichi wiped his face with a towel, and did not participate in their topic, but turned his head casually. Looking in other directions.

That direction was a basketball court with a running track away from the football field, where his familiar childhood sweetheart stood. However, his gaze went beyond the childhood sweetheart, and landed on the short-haired girl practicing pitching in the center of the court.

"I won't go back with Xinyi after school today. I want to cheer for Xiao Lin. It's her first basketball practice. I have to be by her side."

Before school, Mao Lilan said this to Kudo Shinichi. He didn't care much at first, but seeing that he had practiced here for so long, Lan, who was a childhood sweetheart, was still wholeheartedly watching Xue who was still practicing pitching for a long time Chuan Lin.

This made him a little uncomfortable.

Therefore, he wanted to see how long Xue Chuanlin would practice.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the girl's face was reflected a little rosy. She was already thin and put on a T-shirt, and put on a slightly larger ball uniform. Sweat dripped on her cold face, and her eyes were always serious. Looking ahead, after being taught several times by others, she dribbled the ball lightly, and quickly threw the ball over, although she missed the ball frame.

A taller girl next to her picked it up and continued to teach her, blocking Kudo Shinichi's sight when demonstrating with his body, he instinctively leaned back to look, and suddenly realized whether he was too focused on watching He hurriedly turned his head to the side, pretending to be calm and continuing to drink water.

"Hey, Kudo, what do you like?"

I don't know what topic the teammates talked about, chatting and laughing, they all looked at him and asked such questions.

Shinichi Kudo, who caught the sensitive word "like", froze: "What, what do you like."

"Didn't you hear it just now?" The team member looked at Uchida Asami-senpai and explained, "Senior sister said that she can bring us dessert next time, and asked us what dessert we like. Everyone has said it, so it's up to you. "

"That's right, Kudo, do you have any favorite desserts, I personally recommend dorayaki."

"I like apple pie. It tastes good."

The team members said each sentence one by one, Kudo Shinichi's eyes swayed, and his eyes moved back a little, thinking of the question that the girl inexplicably said that day.

"Does Kudo-san like lemon pie?"

But in fact, it was not inexplicable for her to ask this question at the time. From the later mentioning that she resembles his friend, it can be imagined that she just wanted to find the similarities between the two of them.

"No, you don't look like that."

In the next second, he thought of the girl's denial appearance. When talking about the other person similar to him, there was an unreachable island in her eyes, but it seemed to be shining brightly, and her smile was neither deep nor deep. Light, just right, sincere and affectionate.

The fingertips holding the water bottle unconsciously exerted some force, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and his voice was a bit astringent, he said:

"Lemon pie."

The tone was not hesitant, but determined, and it seemed helpless and stubborn.

"Lemon pie is also good, it's sweet and sour, you can try it too, senior sister."

Someone in the team continued to say with a smile that the atmosphere was as good as ever.

"Ah, I'm afraid I'm not doing well." Uchida Asami-senpai said.

"Asami-senpai is so smart, she will definitely be able to do it, and even if she can't, she will definitely be able to learn it soon."

"Smart people learn things very quickly, and it shouldn't be difficult to make desserts."

"Yeah, it's not like playing basketball."

I don't know who mentioned the topic of basketball at the end, and several people looked at the basketball court next door in seconds.

"Hey, you said that the league is almost here, why would the women's basketball team recruit a substitute who can't play basketball?"

"Yeah, I still have to teach from scratch now. Is it too late? It's a competition with people from the other two schools. I don't know if it will work if I make a substitute."

"And it's Yukikawa Rin, the girl who refused Senior Nomura's confession."

"Don't tell me, the girl who joined the women's basketball team is really good-looking. Look at her figure. She can get whatever she wants. It's absolutely perfect. When the time comes, it depends on her figure—oh!"

The enthusiastic discussant couldn't help but let out a low cry when he was suddenly hit in the face by something. The person who was hit looked at the water bottle that fell in front of him and the person standing up in front of him, and said dissatisfiedly:

"Hey, Kudo, what are you doing?"

Standing up from the lawn, Kudo Shinichi withdrew the hand that was deliberately stretched out, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with the towel around his neck in the other hand. When the towel blocked some of his eyes, he lowered his eyes and looked at the basketball court seriously practicing The young girl whispered a little coldly:

"Sorry, my hand slipped."
