Hidetoku's basketball club didn't give Chiho a chance to be lazy, and made it to the semi-finals of the IH qualifiers without any suspense.

The semifinals and finals are both held in one day, and if Seirin also beats Zhengbang in the semifinals, Shutoku will meet them in the final.

"I heard that Kuroko wants to bring Seirin to beat you, Midorima." After school the day before the competition, Chiho was cleaning the blackboard, and it was her turn to be on duty today.

Midorima stopped arranging the textbooks and looked at her suspiciously: "Who told you?"

Takao put his legs on the table, put his hands behind his head, and yawned loudly—he fell asleep again in the class just now.

"It's Kise-kun—he came to see me after the practice match between Kaito and Seirin." Chiho shook the ashes off the blackboard eraser into the trash can.

Midorima was silent for a while, he had secretly watched that match, and he still remembered Kise's cry after losing very clearly.

——But I will not lose if I do my best.

He picked up his schoolbag and grabbed Gao Wei's collar by the way: "Hmph, no matter who the opponent is, we will win. Go Gao Wei."

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts! Xiao Zhen!" Takao waved his hands and feet indiscriminately, and shouted to Chiho as if asking for help: "Xiao Qian, help me!"

Chiho just returned him with a kind smile: "Come on for tomorrow's game~ I'll watch it."

On the day of the game, the city was overcast and it rained continuously.

When Chiho had just finished her match against Erkaido at the shogi seminar and rushed from Mikazukicho to the Tokyo Gymnasium, Hidetoku's match against Seirin was already halfway through.

This is the third time she has come here. She put away her umbrella and walked towards the basketball court in a familiar way. From time to time, there were voices from the audience, and the game seemed to be very intense.

In the middle of walking, Chiho realized that she had run out of water and stopped in front of the vending machine.

"Tsk..." My favorite oolong tea was sold out, I stared at the button with red light annoyed, and then put down my raised finger.

"If you don't know what to drink, I recommend this~ It's very suitable for girls." At this time, a magnetic male voice sounded in her ear, with a raised tone, and a hand stretched over her shoulder, pressing down a bottle of juice.

"Ah!" Chiho's body trembled, and the umbrella in her hand fell to the ground, and she screamed out in shock from the other party's sudden movement.

Heiwei Tielang narrowed his eyes and showed a very interested smile. He felt that the reaction of the girl in front of him was like a frightened cat.

"Ah Hei... You scared her." His best playmate, Lone Claw, said weakly from the side while typing on the PSP.

Chiho picked up the umbrella, turned around in panic, and saw two boys, one tall and one short, standing in the aisle. The tall one had black hair standing up in a mess, and the bangs on the right were so long that they almost covered one eye. , with a very unruly temperament, wearing a black T-shirt and red shorts, showing muscular arms and legs; the one who is shorter than him has yellow hair that is parted in the middle, but the roots are black and thin She looked uninspired, but her big eyes shone brightly like a cat's.

— Bad and... cats?Chiho had doubts in her heart.

No no no, what am I thinking about?

"Well... thank you, but I have to go first, to watch my friend's game." Finally suppressing the fluctuating mood, Chiho took out the bottle of juice from the extraction port, lifted it up and shook it, " Bye~"

"Two-time national champion, former manager and coach of Shiratorizawa Middle School—"

Chiho stopped and turned her head.

"I'm not anymore." She said calmly, "How did you know me?"

"When I was in middle school, I watched your games here." Heo Wei replied, "Of course I will remember you~ Your tactical arrangements are very good... and the time when you apologized to the players in the final..."

"Oh, thank you, but let's forget about me." Chiho interrupted Kurobi's words, and walked away quickly.

"Ah Hei?" Grinding cleared the level, looked up at the silent friend beside him.

"It's okay, let's go." Heiwei patted Grinding on the back, and the two walked to the volleyball court.

——I didn’t expect to meet her when watching IH’s volleyball qualifiers

In his memory, the mighty Shiratori Ze had an excellent player like Niu Ruo, but what impressed him the most was that it was an ordinary female manager who brought them to the final for the first time.

During the final, Heowei and Grinding were sitting in the stands, his eyes circling Chiho curiously.

As a result, when Shiratorozawa fell into a passive state, she made a move that surprised him. The subsequent performance of the Shiratorozawa team was like being reborn from the ashes, and won the championship in one fell swoop with Niu Ruo's extraordinary performance.

Today is the day for the semi-finals and finals of the IH Tokyo preliminaries. My Yinju failed in the top eight in Tokyo, so I came to watch the game together.

Kurobi was thinking while walking, shouldn't she be in Miyagi?How come here?

"Maybe she just moved." Grinder suddenly said, disturbing Black Tail's thoughts.

"Huh? That's right~" I haven't said a word yet, but the other party has already guessed my thoughts. Grinding has such a terrifyingly accurate observation and prediction ability, "Grinding also has to work hard, I'm waiting for you in Yinju ~"

Black Tail raised his hand and rubbed the grinding head.

"Ahei stop, your hair is messed up..." Momo said lazily, but he was playing the game non-stop.

"Ah, bad."

"?"

"Forgot to ask for her phone number."

"..."

Chiho walked into the basketball hall, and the two people she met just now were probably members of the volleyball club of another school, so they recognized her.

Putting this matter behind her, she opened the juice and took a sip. It tasted sour and sweet.

"...not bad." Taking another sip, Chiho found Xiude's spectator seat at a glance, and walked there.

All the seats were already occupied, so she had to go to the front row and lean against the railing, in front of the railing was a big slogan "Indomitable".

On the court, Xiu Deok is wearing a white team uniform, and Seirin is wearing a black team uniform.

It was the first time for Chiho to watch a formal basketball game at close range, and it was also the first time to grasp the terrifying ability of the so-called "Generation of Miracles".

The three-pointer that Midorima can make no matter how far it is, is beyond the scope of ordinary people no matter how you look at it.

In addition, Heizi's misleading vision and ever-changing passing, as if he had disappeared from ten people, it was difficult to catch his afterimage.

The race has reached the last quarter, and although Hidetoku is still leading, Seirin is desperately catching up——

Chiho's eyes were attracted by Seirin's tall red-haired man, he had amazing jumping ability, tried to block Midorima's shots again and again, and dunked with Kuroko's assists again and again—she I think he should be Vulcan.

"Oh, Takao is also very good." Chiho said in a low voice. As a point guard, Takao has a strong judgment on the situation of the audience and can always pass high-quality assists.

Unknowingly, she was emotionally aroused by this fierce battle, and seeing the points narrowed little by little, Chiho's heart beat faster and faster.

In the last 30 seconds, Midorima scored again, 81:76.

In the last 18 seconds, Seirin's captain, Hinata, fought back, 81:79.

In 15 seconds, Seirin got the ball, Hinata ran to catch the pass again, made a three-pointer with a jumper, and the score was overtaken, 81:82.

——The time is only the last three seconds.

"Come on..." She bit her lips tightly, not knowing whether she was speaking to Xiu De or Seirin.

He neither wants to see his school lose the game, nor does he want to see Kuroko and Kagami lose to Midorima, and they are defeated in the first official challenge to the "Generation of Miracles".

The game was still going on, at the last second, Midorima tricked Vulcan with a fake move, and was about to jump——

Clutching the railing with both hands, Chiho closed her eyes.

"Boom—" She faintly heard a loud thunder coming from outside the museum.

"D--!" The final whistle sounded, and she heard the surprised shouts from the audience around her.

Chiho opened her eyes, and what she saw was the scene where Kuroko covered the green room.

She stayed where she was.

"82 to 81, Seirin wins!"

"Thank you for your advice!"

Afterwards, Xiude's team walked to the auditorium of their home, and bowed deeply to the students who cheered for them on the stage: "Thank you for your support!"

Midorima straightened up, looked up at Chiho in the stands, her beautiful purple eyes were examining herself tenderly, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Xiaoqian?" Takao's lonely expression loosened for a moment when he saw Chiho, and he waved to her.

Chiho just nodded silently at them and left the auditorium.

Just as she walked to the hall, Chiho's cell phone rang.

It's Udo.

"Hello, Ruoli?" She found a quiet corner before answering the phone.

"We have passed the county qualifiers, 2-1, against Qingcheng." Ushidao's calm voice came, and Tiantong's excited cry came in the background.

Chiho blinked and didn't answer for a long time.

"Chiho?" Ushijima asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"

She shook her head: "It's nothing, congratulations. Then, I'll be waiting for you in Tokyo~"

"Okay, I still have something to tell you."

"What, what? Ruo Lijun, why don't you tell her now?" Tiantong walked around him with his waist bent, his half-closed eyes shining brightly.

"Who is that?" Chiho heard Tendo's penetrating voice clearly.

"It's my teammate, Tiantongjue."

"Oh~ you are very energetic, it seems that you won easily?" Chiho covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"No, he's always been like this." Ushishima replied seriously, Tendo's hand had already reached his shoulder, and was knocked off by Semi who was beside him.

"I see, you met a group of interesting teammates, I can't wait to meet them~"

"Hmm... the game, will you come and see it?"

"Of course, IH see you~"

The phone call with Niu Dao was delayed for a while, and when she put away her mobile phone, the audience who came to watch the game had already left, and there were only a few scattered people in the hall.

Chiho held up her umbrella and walked outside, texting her mother while walking along the road outside the museum, planning to tell her that she would go home for dinner tonight.

The hand that was typing stopped when he caught sight of the person standing in front of him out of the corner of his eye.

She quickly deleted the typed content, changed it to "I won't go home for dinner tonight", raised her umbrella and ran towards that person.

Midorima felt the cold rain on her body suddenly disappear.

He opened his eyes and saw a black umbrella top.

"Why is it raining here? What should I do if I catch a cold?" Chiho's reproachful voice sounded at the right time. She desperately stood on tiptoe, raising her hand as high as she could barely reach Midorima's head with the umbrella.

The wobbly center of gravity caused by standing on tiptoes made Chiho a little unsteady, so Midorima lowered her head and took over the handle of the umbrella.

——I just didn’t want others to see me crying, so I chose to stand in the rain and weep.

Did she still find out?

The smile on her face after the game came to mind. Is this laughing at herself who was abandoned by the goddess of luck?

Midorima thought about it, but didn't answer Chiho's question.

At this time, a call from Momoi and Aomine ended the silence between the two.

As soon as she finished talking with Aomine, Chiho snatched his cell phone and chatted happily with Momoi.

"Hey... that's my phone." Midorima and Chiho complained helplessly as they walked back to the gate of the gymnasium.

On the other side, Qingfeng also watched helplessly as his mobile phone was taken away by Momoi again.

"Hahaha is it~ Seirin will meet you next time?" Chiho listened to Momoi's words with a bright smile, "Since you are standing with Kuroko-kun, I will cheer for Aomine-kun~"

"..." This woman wasn't listening to him at all!

Chiho finally finished chatting with Momoi, returned the phone to Midorima, and grinned: "Next time, don't stand outside alone in the rain, it looks stupid."

"I want you to take care of it!" Midorima put away the phone resentfully, and saw Takao pushing the scooter to stop in front of them.

"Yo~ Xiaozhen, Xiaoqian!" Takao held the umbrella in one hand and supported the cart with the other hand, while handing Midorima's bag to him, "Seniors have already left, where did you go just now? Could it be Xiaozhen crying The nose was discovered by Xiaoqian?"

"I didn't cry!" Midorima weakly defended.

"Takao!" Chiho rushed over to give the other party a comforting hug, "I'm sorry I'm late~ The chess club couldn't get away, I only saw the last verse..."

"It's okay, Xiaoqian, it's great if you can come~ But I'm sorry..." Takao looked down at the top of Chiho's head, "We lost."

Hearing this, Midorima fell into a brief silence.

——Sure enough, I am still not reconciled.

Make sure to win it back next time.

"What's the matter~ There is an old saying that winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs." Chiho let go of Takao, "When I was the manager of the volleyball club in middle school, even though our team was very strong, we would still lose games~"

"Eh——you used to be the manager of the volleyball club? Xiaoqian, you never told me!" Takao was surprised, looking at Midorima, "Xiaozhen, do you know?"

"I know." Midorima pushed down his glasses, "Go eat, I'm hungry."

"You don't tell me if you know...Xiao Zhen really is." Takao grabbed Chiho's shoulder, "Come to my side, Xiaoqian~ I want to hear about your volleyball club."

"Hey——!" Midorima looked at the cart that had been left behind. He couldn't just leave his exclusive vehicle here, and rely on it to enslave Takao, so he had no choice but to push the cart and follow behind the two of them. .

It was raining heavily, and it was already late at this time, it was unrealistic to go home for dinner, so the three decided to settle it on the spot.

They found a monjayaki shop nearby, and Takao opened the door—

"Uncle ~ three!" He shouted.

Chiho Midorima followed him in.

There are already many customers in the store, and it is very lively.

Seirin's team members stared at Kase Kasamatsu and the others, and everyone looked dumbfounded.

"Why are you two here? Where are the others?" Seirin's captain Hinata shouted first, "And who is she?"

"Yasuhara, you came to the game too? Why didn't you tell me~!" Kise stood up and waved to Chiho excitedly.

"Ahaha~ Xiaozhen got separated from the seniors when she was crying, and came to have a meal... She is Xiaoqian, Xiaozhen and I are friends at school~"

"Long time no see, Yasuhara-kun." Heizi greeted her politely.

Vulcan facing Heizi asked suspiciously, "Huh? Heizi, do you know her too?"

Just as Midorima was about to blurt out her complaints, she was stopped by Chiho who stepped forward, and she bowed deeply to the captain asahi: "Hi, my name is Yasuhara Chiho, a friend of Takao and Midorima, and Kise Heizi and the others also know each other. I'm sorry, Kise-kun~ I arrived last, so I didn't have time to tell you."

"Change place." Luma turned and went out, not wanting to eat with the group in front of him.

Takao hurriedly followed him out, but Chiho calmly asked the boss for an empty seat in front of the counter, sat down, and began to order.

The two of Hidetoku were quickly driven back to the store by the wind and rain raging outside, and Takao skillfully dismissed Kasamatsu-senpai, allowing Midorima and Kuroko Fire God Kise to sit together at the same table.

Chiho was eating monjayaki and listening to the conversation of the "big four" gathered at the table from a distance.

——The present and the past, victory and defeat and revenge.

She can see Kuroko's determination, the freshness brought by Kagami, and the changes in Kise, and she can be sure that Midorima's heart is slowly shaking.

A gratified smile appeared on her face, and Chiho took the last bite in a good mood.

When Takao didn't know whether it was intentional or not, he shoveled the writing on the top of Midorima's head and was dragged out of the store, he shouted at Chiho just before closing the door: "Xiao Qian~ Xiaozhen and I will go first! Bye! "

Chiho waved at him, signaling to reassure him.

After teaching Takao a lesson, Midorima came back to pay the money, and silently nodded to Chiho.

"Mr. Lujian," Heizi called to stop Lujian, "Let's fight together later."

"Of course..." Midorima replied firmly with her back turned to him, "I will win you next time."

Midorima walked out of the store and was driven home by Takao on a cart.

——Next time, we must win.Repeating this sentence in his heart, Midorima's fighting spirit rose.

"Huh..." Chiho let out a long sigh, as if a stone in her heart had fallen to the ground.She settled the bill with the boss, stood up, and was about to leave.

"Xiao Yasuhara~!" When she walked to the door, Kise's voice sounded behind her, "Don't come to eat anymore~ I invite you!"

Chiho's hand that was about to open the door froze, she turned her head: "No need Kase-kun, next time, I'm full."

"As well as Heizi-kun and Vulcan-kun, thank you." Chiho closed the shop after leaving a sentence that made Vulcan feel unclear.

"Hey Heizi..." Vulcan's mouth was full of food, "Who is that woman? A classmate of yours, Teikoshi?"

"No, Yasuhara-kun is our friend outside of Teikoshi's school." Heizi replied calmly.

"That's right~ Yasuhara's junior high school is in Miyagi, she just moved here in high school, and now she's a student of Hidetoku." Kise continued, "I don't know why, but she is very destined to us~ and..."

When Huang Lai said this, he paused, and looked down at the table: "We made her sad, little Heizi."

"Hmm." There was a ripple in Heizi's blue eyes.

—— Miracle's generational break hurts not only each of them, but also those friends who care about them.

"However, Kise-kun is changing." Heizi continued, "Yasuhara-kun was smiling just now."

"Really?" Vulcan complained, "Why didn't I see it."

Huang Lai raised her head and showed a bright smile: "That's it, Xiao Heizi, you are really careful... But next time, I won't lose to you guys again."

The rain has stopped.

On the way home, Chiho stretched contentedly and rubbed her tired shoulders.

— they are changing.

And me?

—Joly passed the qualifying round.

I can't get behind either.

The summer vacation is about to enter, this is the best training opportunity before the amateur competition.

She took out her phone, opened LINE, and sent a message to Kiriyama Rei.

The author has something to say:

With more characters, multi-line intertwined group portrait dramas feel the most difficult to control.

And who ordered Heiyan~!This chapter is here~

Before Niu Dao, I fell in love with Ah Hei, so handsome and flirtatious——!

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

small theater:

Vulcan: How did Yasuhara meet you guys?

Kise: Because of a basketball~

Heizi: Well, she passed the basketball back with the movement of playing volleyball.

Vulcan: Huh?

Kise (shocked): Xiao Heizi, were you there at that time? !
