Ushijima actually supported Chiho's decision.

It's better to say that he can fully understand her now—whether as a childhood sweetheart, as a person who loves her, or as a strong person.

He could see that the layer of veil covering Chiho's face was gradually broken and withered, revealing her clear face.

——So you were thinking about these things, Chiho.

That time I went to watch the zero game with her, her eyes were shining brightly, she put her hands together on her lips, and stared at the chessboard--Ushijima knows that only with full devotion and love can you unconsciously Make this move.This is completely different from the serious sense of responsibility on her face when she watched their volleyball team play.

——I have always only thought about myself, but ignored your feelings.

You dragged you into the volleyball department as a manager and coach, but you never complained, and you brought us to the top.

I'm sorry, Chiho, but your childishness at that time made you struggle so much.

You are also because of your father, I heard you said that he is very good at chess.

Just like me before.

It must be very hard for you to become a professional chess player.

On the morning of the weekend, the volleyball club of Shiratorozawa High School also insisted on training.

The volleyball was thrown high and landed in Semi's palm. With a smile on his face, he confidently threw a ball to Ushijima——

"Boom" still had the power to shock the audience. Ozaki looked at the ball and felt his heart tremble, feeling that his arm would break if he touched it.

On the surface, Ushido was still very calm, his expression didn't change much, but his heart felt a prickly pain right now, thinking about what happened to Chiho, it was only then that he realized that the person who went too far was actually himself.

You can no longer bring your personal emotions into training.

"Sorry, I want to go to the bathroom." Ushijima left the court after getting Washaku's permission, trying to calm himself down outside.

After watching Ushishima go out with vigilant eyes, Jiujiang called Semi to him, and said, "Semi, there is no need to show off your strength, you just need to be able to toss the ball neatly."

"Yes, coach..." Although I agreed with my mouth, I still feel unwilling in my heart.

Seti returned to the court with her head down, her confident smile disappeared.

He also knows that his playing style is not suitable for the current Shiratorizawa, but coach Washi still chose him because of his calm analysis and gorgeous ball throwing skills beyond ordinary people.

Tightly pursing her lips and clenching her fists—ever since seeing the strength of Ushido's absolute trump card, Seti's last line of defense began to crumble.

— Do you want to give up?he asked himself.

"What's wrong with you, Yingtaijun~?" Tiantong leaned over, put his shoulders on him, narrowed his eyes, "What did the coach say to you?"

Tendo knew intuitively what the coach had said to Sejian just now, and he looked very conflicted now.

"Tiantong...I'm fine." Setian gritted his teeth, determined to follow the coach's advice.

Now he is the only setter in the team. If he can't sacrifice this little freedom, the team will be one step closer to victory.Time is tight, and you must restrain yourself from now on.

"Hey~" Tiantong put his hands on his hips, his face full of disbelief, and he let out a long question.

"Tiantong, if you are lazy again, you will be fined 100 serves!" Coach Jiujiang shouted at him in a huff.

Niu Dao stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, silently looking at himself in the mirror.

His wet hands slapped his cheeks vigorously, and the cold touch spread all over his body. His body trembled, and he quickly regained his composure.

Under the dark brown pupils, a raging fire was burning.

Don't think so much, just know that she has made a promise to her that Xia Tian is going to Tokyo.

——Complete the unfinished confession.

Back on the court, Ushijima felt that Semi's toss ball was playing more smoothly. The subtle difference from before made him quickly realize that his setter had also changed.

Coach Washi has always had only one guiding philosophy, which Ushijima has acknowledged, and he knows that Semi has made sacrifices for it.

"Thank you, Yingtai."

Seeing the words, Seto smiled knowingly and said, "It's nothing, you have to work hard, Ruoli."

The gears began to grind, and the machine went into operation.

At lunch time, due to the closure of the cafeteria, under the call of Kujo, the teenagers still had dinner at the ramen shop.

As soon as Tendo entered the store, he recalled what Ushijima had said the last time he came here, and he asked curiously at the dinner table: "Hey~ Ruori-kun, what does that Chiho you mentioned earlier look like? "

"Tiantong..." Seti said out, wanting to remind him that it's impolite to ask other people's privacy like this.

But the other first graders all looked at Udo, as if they were very interested in this question.

How could Tendo be bound by superficial etiquette, and so was Ushishima, who didn't feel it at all.

"Ahaha, well..." Kujo cleared his throat, exaggeratedly drawn out the tone, "It's very——beautiful~"

"It's almost as if you didn't answer! What kind of airs are you putting on there!" Saito complained, and knocked on Jiutiao's head.

"Hey hey~" What made Saito even more powerless was that Chiba showed an idiot-like smile.

Saito felt that these two buddies who had been with him since junior high school were completely hopeless.

"If you want to see it, I have her picture here."

Under the gaze of the whole table, Ushijima calmly took out his mobile phone and put it in the center of the table, and showed Chiho's photos one by one for everyone to see.

Several first graders stretched their necks and leaned forward. In the first photo, the girl has bright orange hair and a smile in her purple eyes. She holds a Christmas tree full of decorations with her hand and looks at the camera— — This is a photo taken in Sendai City on the day Ushido accompanied her on her birthday.

Ushijima's fingers continued to move backwards, and there were photos of the junior high school team in front of the Tokyo Gymnasium, photos from the summer festival, and scrolling down was the video sent to him by the juniors at the school festival.

Chiho's singing came from the mobile phone, lingering in the ears of the teenagers.

"She can sing? It's really nice." Daping praised.

"Hey~ why are there so few!" Tendo complained, expressing that he didn't see enough, "I thought there would be swimsuits or something..." In the photo, Chiho was basically wrapped up tightly, which disappointed him very much. .

"Tendo! It's too rude to say that!" Semi shouted, and Yamagata nodded silently, not knowing whether he was agreeing with Tendo or Semi.

"Because I don't like taking pictures." Ushishima replied, putting his phone in his pocket.

Speaking of which, he has never seen Chiho in a swimsuit... What would it look like?

Ushishima thought seriously.

I've seen her wearing the most revealing clothes, and she only had summer school uniforms.

A white and slender arm was exposed under the short sleeves, and under the purple skirt, there were well-proportioned thighs without a trace of fat...

Thinking of this, Niu Dao felt his blood start to surge up uncontrollably.

He rarely experienced this kind of feeling, so his face turned red, and there was a "squeak" and steam came out of his head.

And this did not escape the eyes of his teammates.

"Hahahahaha——!" Tiantong grinned like a lunatic, "Mr. Ruoli~ is too cute~"

The others couldn't hold back either, and laughed while lying on the table or on top of their teammates.

"No..." Ushishima tried to argue, "I really haven't seen her in a swimsuit."

"Who asked you this hahahahaha!" Ozaki slapped the table wildly, his stomach hurting from laughing, "For the rest of your life (body), senior, I will work hard!"

"Ozaki—" Qianye ruthlessly pressed the head of the second-year free man into the bowl again, "Don't speak pornographically in front of the juniors!"

"Yes... I was wrong." Ozaki raised his hands in surrender.

Ushijima blinked, did not respond to Ozaki's words, and continued eating noodles.

And without knowing it, Chiho, who became the subject of discussion among these teenagers, was at home in Tokyo at this time.

She knelt in front of the chessboard, holding the chess record that Shimada gave her in one hand, and moving the pieces on the board with the other.

My mother works overtime in the company, and she is the only one at home.The rest day is the best opportunity to review, and the learning results in the shogi seminar a few days ago can be consolidated today.Chiho's brain was running fast, and she could feel that her memory ability was getting stronger and stronger, and she could already memorize several sets of moves in the chess record in a day.

"Hmm... So Dad likes to use this style in the game..." Chiho murmured, "It's hard to understand... Do you want to ask Master Shimada?"

Although she has gone through the chess records left by her father at home, the information Shimada gave her shows moves that she has never seen before. This kind of chess style is very rare, but once a thorough understanding is made, the player's ability will improve by leaps and bounds .

Chiho, who had been kneeling all morning, felt pain in her waist, legs and feet, so she stood up and went to the kitchen to prepare some lunch.

At this moment, her cell phone rang.

On the caller ID was Ryota Kise who hadn't contacted for a long time.

Chiho connected suspiciously: "Kise-kun?"

"Xiao Yasuhara~" Kise's voice came, sounding a little depressed, "Why didn't you tell me you came to Tokyo? Are you free to come out now? I was dumped by Xiao Heizi yesterday... the practice match I also lost..."

"Huh?" Chiho was taken aback.

— What was dumped?Is that kind of relationship between you and Heizi?

She complained in her heart, but Kise's condition didn't sound very good, which made her a little worried.

Of course Chiho didn't know about the practice match between Kaito and Seirin yesterday, she studied chess records at home all day.

She rubbed her sore waist, feeling that it would be nice to go out to relax properly, so she replied, "Okay, I'll go over after dinner ~ where are you?"

——It’s Kanagawa.Chiho stepped out of the tram and smelled the sea breeze.

Outside the station, she spotted Huang Lai at a glance. She hadn't seen him for a year. He still had the same handsome face, but he had grown a lot taller.

"Xiao Yasuhara!" Kise also saw Chiho, and ran towards her quickly, "Long time no see!"

"Well, long time no see, Kise-kun." Chiho looked at him carefully, without any sense of loss.

— Am I being tricked?She suddenly realized.

However, it was too late to run back to the station now.

Huang Lai insisted on taking her to Haichang High School for a visit, but the hospitality was hard to bear, so he had to give up.

Chiho regards Kise as a friend, he treats friends with a kind and sunny personality, and is also very easy to bully——

Yes, so bullied that she suspects that he is the bottom of the food chain of the Miracle Generation, even Tsundere and Green are a little tougher than him.

Along the way, Kise narrated to her the practice match with Seirin yesterday, and the process of being "dumped" by Xiao Heizi.

Chiho listened quietly, comforting Kise with a word or two from time to time, she was deeply impressed by his dedication to Kuroko, and what he said was that Kuroko's new partner "Vulcan" seemed to be a very tricky character.

She soon understood that Kise's loss was real, he didn't care about the name of a miracle, he just hated losing and wanted to win all the time, and that Kuroko who could play happily with him chose to leave, and brought Seirin wants to defeat the miracles one by one.

The shogi player's meticulous thinking began to function, and Chiho recalled the information she heard from Momoi, and slowly wove a network of relationships about the former Teiko members in her mind.

— so broken, she thought.

But Heizi and Vulcan will be the key to bring them back together.

Chiho and Kise walked in Haichang's spacious campus, and the campus was deserted on weekends. She listened to Kise's introduction to the school, and suddenly felt that she had become a bystander in this big drama.

Akashi's eyes and Momoi's tears emerged in the memory, and she still remembered the feeling at that time.

Obviously, we were friends with everyone at first, and that 3v3 basketball match seemed to happen just yesterday.

Thinking of the current appearance of her neighbor Midorima, Chiho couldn't help sighing.

"Ah..." Suspended thinking, Chiho and Kise had already arrived at the basketball court, she walked in and picked up a basketball on the ground.

"Kise-kun," she said, "I first met you because of basketball."

Kise looked at the figure standing in the middle of the venue, Chiho was facing him, unable to see his expression clearly.

The golden eyes were locked tightly, and the eloquent words stopped. He felt that compared with before, Chiho seemed to be burdened a lot now——

There was some invisible weight hovering over her head. Although she looked more mature on the outside, she was still very slender inside, as if it would break if she touched it, like a fragile gem.

"Yeah." Kise replied with a smile, "You and us...are really destined~"

Chiho suddenly turned around and looked directly at him: "Teach me how to play basketball, Kise-kun."

——Blurred comfort and cheap sentimentality are useless and cannot restore anything that has been lost.

She still can't give up on this group of friends, if it's Kuroko, there must be a way to make Momoi smile sincerely again.

Moreover, professional chess players also need a strong physique to support them. Now that Ruoli is not around, if you want to choose a sport, basketball is also very good.

"Xiao Yasuhara, are you serious?" Kise couldn't believe his ears.

"Well, teach me ~ Coach Kise!" Chiho winked mischievously at him, and threw the basketball into his arms.

"Okay! Don't try to run away halfway—!" Kise, who finally felt like he wasn't at the bottom of the food chain, was overjoyed, feeling that he had someone he could bully.

however……

"It's not that kind of movement! Yasuhara, how accustomed are you to playing volleyball?!" After only an hour of teaching, Kise went crazy.

Although Chiho's motor nerves were sensitive, she could hardly hold the ball.The basketball always slipped unconsciously in her hands, because she was used to the feeling of volleyball that does not need to hold the ball.

"I'm sorry, Kise-kun." Chiho stuck out her tongue, "After all, I've been fighting with Ruori for more than ten years..."

"By the way, speaking of it, where is Maverick Island?" Kise then remembered that there was a childhood sweetheart with a strong aura beside Chiho.

"He stayed in Miyagi." Chiho picked up the ball and shook off the dust on it, "But he's still in Shiratorizawa, and now he's playing volleyball in the high school."

"Oh...so you dumped him~" Huang Lai slapped his forehead and came to a conclusion.

Chiho raised her foot and kicked Kise's ass, it is said that this was the method used by his seniors to deal with him.

—— Poor Kise discovered that he was still at the bottom of the food chain.

The short trip to Kanagawa came to an end in the setting sun. After that, Chiho finally learned the basics of dribbling and holding the ball. When saying goodbye to Kise at the station, he stroked Chiho's head, Said that he would "revenge" on Seirin.

"Thank you for coming to accompany me~ Yasuhara, I feel much better now!" Kise's smile was still as bright as the sun, and his handsomeness soared.

Chiho tore his claws off his head: "Then~ I wish you success in your revenge."

"Ok!"

It was already dark when we got home, and Mamiko hadn't returned yet.Feeling that her body was about to fall apart, Chiho threw herself on the bed, took out her phone to deal with the mail.

To Kise: I got home safely, thank you for today.

Master To Shimada: I have memorized all the chess records you gave this week, but there are some places that I cannot understand. I hope to ask you for advice tomorrow.

To Xiaoling: Did you have dinner at Kawamoto's?that's good~

To Takao: Okay, I will cheer for the qualifiers, but only for the finals!Don't tell me you guys are kings if you can't make it to the finals!

The typing hands stopped when they saw Udo's letter.

Chiho's face suddenly turned red.

It took her a while to move her fingers, and she replied——

To Ruoli: What kind of messy things have your teammates instilled in you? !I don't have a swimsuit photo, no-yes! !

The author has something to say:

Wow, I have to work so hard~ Reminders are fine, but enough is enough!

Also about the car, I can only say that I will try my best, don’t blame me for the hot eyes == I really haven’t written it

----------------

small theater:

Ushishima: Tendo, why do you want to see swimsuit photos so much?

Tendo: Because swimsuit photos can be used [beep——] Ah Ruoli-kun~

Seti: Tendo! (cover your mouth

Niu Dao:? ? ?
