[Comprehensive main volleyball] long distance pass

Chiho's concept of New Year's Eve since she was a child is this: Once her birthday is over, it means that the year is coming to an end.Christmas and New Year's Day come one after another, and festive celebrations follow one after another. During this time, the surroundings are always full of excitement.

"Everyone, let's go to the New Year's shrine together tomorrow! How about having a dinner together!" On the eve of New Year's Day, senior Ozaki from the volleyball club proposed after the club activities that everyone will have a holiday tomorrow, and it is just a good time to organize a group activity.New Year's worship is a tradition of New Year's Eve. You can go to the shrine to worship the Buddha and ask for a lottery to calculate your luck for the coming year.

"I'm fine." Captain Tamura replied.

"Okay, I'm going!"

"I also want!"

When the very popular Ozaki spoke, everyone responded one after another.

"Where are Ushido and Yasuhara?" Tamura turned his head and asked, only the two of them hadn't responded yet.

Here, Ushijima Wakari was changing clothes, and Chiho was sorting out materials with her head down. One was too dull, and the other was too serious to hear.

"I'll go." Ushishima put on his school uniform, patted Chiho on the back and reminded her in a low voice, "Senior Tamura is asking you if you want to go to the New Year's shrine together."

Chiho shuddered, like a frightened cat, quickly stood up and bowed, "Ah... hug, sorry, I didn't hear just now... I will go too, Senior Tamura!"

"It's okay, Yasuhara. Then—" Subaru Tamura cleared his throat and announced loudly to the members: "Tomorrow, everyone will gather at the gate of the shrine at ten o'clock in the morning!"

"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison, and the loud voice echoed over the gymnasium.

Ushijima waited for Chiho to pack up the equipment and she was the last to leave.

After Christmas, it is either raining or snowing here. The sky has completely darkened, and the ground is covered with a mixture of snow and rain. If you are not careful, you will slip, so you have to be careful with every step you take.

Even though she had put on her snow boots in preparation, Chiho still took small steps cautiously, and quickly opened up a distance from Ushijima who was striding forward.

Unable to feel the warmth of the people around him, Niu Dao stopped and looked back sideways.

I saw Chiho holding the shoulder strap of her schoolbag with both hands, her eyes fixed on the ground, slowly moving towards him.Ushishima felt that it took a long time before she moved in front of him—but because she had been concentrating on looking at the ground, she bumped her head into his arm.

"Ah!" Ushijima's arms were full of muscles, hitting them was as hard as the wall, Chiho clutched her forehead in pain trying to keep her balance.

Chiho's body was shaking, Ushijima had no choice but to reach out to support her.

"Thank you... no, why should I say thank you?!" Chiho first thanked subconsciously, but immediately realized that the person she thanked was the culprit who made her almost fall down.

"You're walking too slowly. If you're afraid of slipping, just help me go." Ushishima didn't care about Chiho's angry expression at this time, and raised his left arm very gentlemanly, with a serious expression.

Chiho was speechless, and tightly hugged the life-saving straw.

"... let's go," she ordered.

Ushido started walking again.

"Tomorrow at nine o'clock in front of my house, go to the shrine together?"

"it is good."

Under the street lamp, the footprints of the two of them were left on the snow, extending far away.

The next morning, the two set off at the agreed time and arrived at the gate of the shrine ahead of schedule.

Fortunately, today is a sunny day, and the sky washed by rain and snow has a clear blue color, which makes people feel at ease.

This is just the gate of the shrine. The ancestral hall is built on the mountain behind, and it takes a mountain road to enter there.Under the tall red torii, there is an endless stream of people who come to worship, and the flow of people coming in and out has crowded the road up the mountain.

It is not the first time that Chiho and Ushido have come here to visit the New Year together. She remembers that she came with him once or twice before. She chased after him on the steps of the mountain road, climbing out of breath, but she always couldn't catch up. , she was so angry that she didn't want to come with him afterwards.

Fortunately, this time, we are with everyone in the volleyball club. If there are many people, the speed of progress will not be very fast. It should be no problem at all.

——Facts have proved that Chiho is still too naive.

The only female manager was left far behind, and this group of teenagers with excess strength ran up the mountain as if they were usually running outdoors for training, scaring the middle-aged and elderly people next to them to run away.

Chiho followed, trying to catch up and kept apologizing to those who were scared. By the time she reached the last step, she couldn't walk at all, and her throat was so dry.

"Huh...huh..." Chiho found a tree to lean against, took out a water bottle from her backpack and drank a big mouthful of water, took a few deep breaths of the fresh mountain air, and felt that the situation had eased.

——Boys, wait for me to train in the future!

She cursed angrily in her heart, and decided to double the amount of training for everyone in the future.

At this time, a voice sounded that she seemed to have heard somewhere: "Huh? The manager sauce of Shiratorizawa?"

On the other side, the teenagers who finally had a collective relaxation activity have already lined up to complete the worship, and are excitedly exchanging the signatures they have obtained.

Ushishima opened the lottery and took a look. It was "Daji". After reading the small words below, he folded the lottery and put it in his pocket.

He had been with his teammates from the volleyball club just now, and looking around, he realized that Chiho was gone.

Walking quickly to the entrance of the ancestral hall, Niu Dao was going to look for it outside, but when he reached the entrance, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

——Oikawa and Iwaizumi were talking with Chiho under a tree in the yard.

Standing at a distance for a while, he saw Chiho looking towards him, and Oikawa and Iwaizumi turned their heads to meet his gaze at the same time.

Udo slowly walked under the tree.

"Long time no see, Niu Ruojiang! Happy New Year~" Oi Chuan greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Hello, Happy New Year." Iwaizumi also said politely.

Although he is a strong opponent in the arena and has declared war on each other seriously before, facing the two respectable opponents of Beichuan No. [-] Middle School, Ushido still sent them holiday blessings: "Hello, happy new year."

"I didn't expect to meet here~ I heard from Chiho-chan that your whole team came together? That's great~" Oikawa's tone was still the same as before, and Iwaizumi slapped him on the head as soon as he finished speaking: "Don't treat unfamiliar girls Yelling so intimately, you idiot!"

"Eh~ But Chiho-chan agreed just now, right?" He looked at Chiho with a smirk.

"Um...that's right." Chiho's head was dripping with cold sweat. She was very nervous when she suddenly met the ace from the enemy school who came to say hello. She accidentally agreed with Oikawa's name. When Ushijima came over, she was even more scared. What if it turns into the embarrassing atmosphere of going to Beichuan No. [-] Middle School to declare war last time?Many people around are watching!

Fortunately, Ushido's normal performance made her heave a sigh of relief, and then she remembered that she hadn't settled the blame just now for being dumped by her own staff, and asked, "Where are the others? Are they still inside?"

"Well, it should be out soon." Niu Dao nodded, glanced at the ancestral hall and replied.

"Okay~ Then we'll withdraw first! Please give me more advice for next year's competition, Niu Ruochan!" Oikawa didn't want to see more members of the enemy school, so he took the opportunity to drag Iwaizumi away and blend into the crowd.

"Goodbye, Oikawa-kun, Iwaizumi-kun." Chiho smiled and waved her hand to bid them farewell.

After leaving, Oikawa said with a smile: "I'm in a better mood today after chatting with a cute girl! I'm sure luck will not be bad, I think I can get the lottery~"

Iwaizumi has the word "well" on his head, and he still wants to hit someone today.

Here, Ushijima asked with a dark face: "Do you agree with Oikawa calling you 'Chiho-chan'?"

——Appeared, the face of the ghost I saw that day!Chiho turned her face to one side tremblingly: "Climbing the mountain is too tiring, so I agreed as soon as my brain got hot."

"Don't let others say that again, do you hear me?"

"..." Chiho was very depressed, being so strict, are you my father?

But she still kept silent.

Finally, the large army coming out of the ancestral hall joined them, and Qiansui found that there were a few more people in the team.

"Senior Kujo, Senior Saito, Senior Chiba!"

Chiho didn't expect that the three retired volleyball generals would also come, and greeted them happily.

The three seniors are all facing entrance exams. This time they came to the shrine to make a wish, but they happened to meet the juniors from the volleyball club who came together. Naturally, they came out after chatting with everyone for a while.

"Ahaha~ Yasuhara and Ushido haven't seen each other for a long time! So you are here!"

"Senior Kutiao, Chiho disappeared just now, I'm coming out to look for her."

"It's still reliable, Ushijima, next year's competition is up to you." Saito's temper seemed to be much better.

"What did I say~ You left An Yuan alone just now, it's too much!" Qianye sternly educated the younger generation.

"Forget it, Chiba, it's hard to take a vacation~ Now that everyone is here, let's go have lunch together!" Kujo smoothed things over, and quickly drew everyone's attention to the highlight of the day.

"Oh!"

The place for lunch was a hot pot restaurant nearby, which was actually opened by Tamura's family, otherwise it would be impossible to make an appointment for so many people to eat at such a tight time.

"Yeah, you've helped Tamura a lot! You'll be more reliable after becoming the captain!"

Facing the warm praise from the former captain, Tamura patted his head in embarrassment, blushing.

"Everyone, you're welcome, just order~ Our kid is taken care of by everyone at school!" Mom Tamura, the proprietress of the hot pot restaurant, brought out a large pot of steaming soup, enthusiastically and boldly.

"Okay~ Thank you, auntie!"

Sitting next to Ushido, Chiho silently took out tofu and vegetables from the pot, and started eating with rice.

She won't compete with this group of people for meat anymore, the battlefield of hot pot is terrifying.

At this moment, another pair of chopsticks stretched out a few large slices of beef in front of her eyes, she raised her head and looked in the direction the chopsticks came from—— Ruoli?

She didn't expect that Niu Dao would give her his favorite beef.

As soon as the chopsticks were loosened, the beef fell gently into her bowl.

"Thank you..." I don't know if she was smoked by the heat of the hot pot, or if she was really moved, Chiho felt that tears were coming out of her eyes.

"You're welcome, eat quickly, you won't be able to grab it if you're late." After finishing speaking, Niu Dao turned around and joined the battlefield again.

Chiho put the beef into her mouth, it tasted sweet.

After lunch, it was time to say goodbye to each other.Tonight is New Year's Eve, everyone has to go home and spend it with their families.

I wished the seniors their best wishes for their successful entrance exams, and everyone dispersed in twos and threes, and the entrance of the hot pot restaurant quickly returned to tranquility.

Ushijima and Chiho also returned home together.

"Where are you going to spend tonight?" Chiho actually just asked casually, she knew that Ushishima spent New Year's Eve at home in previous years.

"At home, are you too?"

"Ah."

"Oh, I forgot to ask for a lottery today~ By the way, Ruoli, what lottery did you get?" Chiho suddenly remembered, feeling a little regretful.

"Good luck." Ushido replied honestly.

"So good? Your luck is really good~"

"It's just a superstition, I don't believe in it."

"Although it's a superstition, it's a blessing! A blessing! I think I'll be able to defeat them next year!" Chiho was referring to Beichuan No. [-] Middle School.

"Definitely." Udo was extremely confident in this point.

"Yeah, let's work hard~ I will try my best to support you! Let me think about it... let's start by increasing the amount of training." Qiansui's eyes were all clear, she still remembered the hatred this morning!

Ushishima doesn't care about the life or death of his teammates. Anyway, he has always exceeded the prescribed amount of training: "Okay."

"Hey, then it's such a happy decision~"

He always felt that Chiho's smile was a little scary?

In this way, the members of Shiratorizawa Junior High Volleyball Club ushered in the new year with joy.

It rained all day here today, it's so cold and I want to eat hot pot...
