[Comprehensive main volleyball] long distance pass

Under Chiho's desperate begging, Kiriyama finally agreed to spend a whole period of time during the summer vacation with her for special training—in exchange, Chiho must hand over his father's game records for him to study.

"I'm so envious~ I also want to have a special training with Kiriyama! For my best friend~ I will spare time no matter what!" Erhaitang roared.

"But wouldn't I be at a disadvantage in this way! If Xiao Ling learns, if I also go to play professionally, I will be beaten to death by him." In the room of the shogi research club, Chiho held her head and faced Erkaitang. Tucao, "Woo... A genius boy can really do whatever he wants..."

Erhaitang dropped a child, with a serious expression on Yuanyuan's face: "That being said, no one can fully understand Yasuhara's ninth-dan realm at present~ Even Tongshan may not be able to learn it."

Chiho stared at the chessboard, thinking about what to do next: "What you said makes sense, and so does Dad... before he had time to teach me..."

"Ah, I'm sorry." Realizing that he poked the other person's sore spot, Er Haitang quickly apologized, "I made you think of this..."

"It's okay, Erkaitang, I won't be confused anymore." Chiho's eyes were calm at first, and then began to flicker excitedly, "Then ~here!"

She took the last step confidently: "Surrender~ No matter how hard you struggle, you will lose, hahahahaha!"

Laughing proudly, today's second game also defeated Erhaitang.

"Damn—Yasuhara, you are too cunning~ Come again!" The little fat man felt that his dignity as a professional chess player had been challenged, and he would lose consecutively to an amateur chess player like Chiho.

Since Chiho joined the Shogi Research Association and studied with Shimada, she has been able to share the same level with Kiriyama for a long time, and her chess skills, which are not bad at all, have improved rapidly. Shimada said to Erkaitang that Chiho now can actually be equivalent to a professional fourth-dan level up.

Now he began to believe that he had one more eternal rival and friend.

"Although I really want to play another round...but you should check the time before you say that." Chiho pointed at the wall clock with a smirk, it was past nine o'clock in the evening, "I'm not like you, I have to go to school tomorrow."

Er Haitang lowered his head in despair, his whole body lost color.

"Then I will take my leave, Master Shimada and Erkaido." Chiho stood up, motioned to Shimada at the side, and left the room.

Shimada nodded quietly to her, and continued reading.

——Yuki, you must keep watching, what your daughter looks like now and in the future.

Going to school, going to the shogi research club, and going home on weekdays, studying at home or going to the chess club to practice and observe on rest days, and occasionally being asked out by Kise Momoi to play ball or go shopping——Chiho’s daily life in Tokyo has gradually settled down. She is enjoying where she is now.

Compared with being a manager of the volleyball club in middle school, it is another new experience.

Chiho couldn't say which way of life would be better, rather she wouldn't think about it at all.

——No matter what kind of life it is, since you have chosen this path, you must go on with no distractions, and you can have a clear conscience towards others and yourself.

Before the summer vacation, in addition to the news that Ushijima and the others entered the IH national team, Chiho also received the good news from Ayane that Shiratorizawa Middle School defeated Beichuan No. [-] Middle School in the final of the qualifiers and was once again selected for the national competition.

Three seconds of silence for the poor Beichuan No. [-] Middle School in my heart, lovely Kageyama students cheering for next year——

But this means that this summer will see many old friends...

On the self-study day before the final exam, at noon, Chiho was sitting in the classroom, staring at the phone screen and taking a sip of milk.

The math textbook spread out on the desk is only half turned over, and because I am usually busy practicing shogi, my academic affairs have to be careless.

——Anyway, as long as you make a surprise attack before the exam, you will be fine.

From middle school to high school, she still insisted on this philosophy.

but……

"Help me, Master Midorima! Please lend me your math notes!" Chiho clasped her hands together and begged Midorima with her head down.

The courses in high school are not at all compared to those in middle school. The knowledge points and difficulty to be mastered are not at the same level. The parts that need to be memorized are completely fine with a strong memory. I had no choice but to ask the university bully next to me for help.

- Just one day!Memorizing all the contents of the notes is a victory!

Midorima turned his head reluctantly, and his cold eyes fell on Chiho's head: "No."

"Woo..." Sure enough, he was ruthlessly rejected.

Chiho lay on the table in despair, losing her vitality.

Takao heard the conversation between the two, and quickly turned around: "Don't worry, Xiaoqian~ I can lend you mine!" He said while shaking the notebook in his hand.

"No, Xiaohe..." Chiho pressed her forehead against the table, "If I remember correctly, your score in the quiz is just right..."

Takao's bright smile froze on his face, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.

"Pfft." Midorima sneered softly. Seeing Takao being teased, he became inexplicably happy, so he took out his math notes from the drawer and handed them to Chiho's desk: "I borrowed you for the exam. Remember to pay me back."

Chiho raised her head and looked at Midorima reverently, as if there was a Buddha's light behind him.

"Thank you~ Xiaozhen!" Chiho took Midorima's hand and bowed again and again, changing his address, "Can I call you that in the future?"

——In fact, she has long discovered that although she has a vicious tongue and various eccentricities, Midorima is essentially the same as Ushido, a pure, kind, hardworking and good-looking baby.

After getting along for a semester, Takao's address has become "Xiaohe", so Midorima should be treated equally.

"Hmph, whatever you want..." Midorima frowned and replied, instead of denying it, she continued to read.

"Hahahahaha~ Xiaozhen agrees?" Takao, who had just received a critical hit of [-] points, laughed again and his shoulders trembled. Call, Xiaozhen didn't object~"

"Shut up, Takao." Midorima kicked the stool in front of him irritably, "Do you want to fail the exam at the end of the semester and miss the dorm?"

"Hmmm!" Takao's laughter stopped, the long-awaited summer camp of the basketball club could not be wasted.

"Co-studio?" Chiho noticed the key words in Midorima's words, and asked, "Is it the co-studio of the basketball club? Where are you going?"

——Speaking of sports clubs, there are various camps.

National, county-level, and association... summer vacation and winter vacation will be held, and the location is also varied, depending on the project.

When Chiho was in Shiratorizawa Middle School, she never organized a dormitory for the volleyball club, and insisted on practicing at school during the winter and summer vacations, which was regarded as a kind of vacation training.

But she also really wants to experience a dreamy co-sleeping—whether it’s the sunshine and sandy beach by the sea, or the coolness and hot spring in the mountains...

Nai He is no longer in the sports club, so there is no such opportunity.

--wrong!

Chiho's eyes widened, another possibility formed in her mind.

"Let's think about it... I heard from the coach that it was in a bed and breakfast by the sea, called Bochezhuang." Takao recalled.

"The Hidetoku Basketball Club has always slept there during the summer vacation, which is our tradition." Midorima said.

"Oh~" Chiho nodded, and searched for the location on her phone, which was located on a mountain near the sea near Tokyo.

——The sea, mountains, and Japanese-style houses, OK, this is it!

The movement quickly sent the positioning to Tongshan and Erhaitang, and extended an invitation to them.

She put down her mobile phone and said to them, "I'm going here too during the summer vacation."

Midorima and Takao were stunned.

"Hey hey hey—!?" Takao exclaimed, causing the other students to look at him, "Why are you going, Xiaoqian? Are you on vacation?"

Midorima also had a puzzled face, staring at her with emerald green eyes suspiciously.

"It's not a vacation," Chiho said with a mysterious smile, "it's a shogi game."

——Since Tongshan has agreed to spare a few days to accompany her in special training, instead of staying in a stuffy home or a chess club, it is better to find a place with an elegant environment where you can completely relax your body and mind. The effect of combining work and rest will be better, maybe And get new inspiration.

"Oh~ By the way, Xiaoqian, you want to be a professional chess player." Takao, who was being watched by the whole class, lowered his voice, and approached Chiho and said, "Are you with your chess buddies? If you have time, why don't you come with us? There are too many people It's more fun to order~ Besides..."

He smirked and squinted at Midorima: "I'll tell you a secret, Xiaozhen can actually play shogi, oh yes~ he can also play the piano and said, you were not there at the time, last time in the music classroom..."

"Takao-o-" Midorima prolonged the tone, threatening, and Takao immediately covered his mouth in fright.

"Yeah~ Yes, it's a good time, anyway, I won't disturb your training when the time comes... Eh? What did you say?" Chiho asked in surprise, "Xiaozhen can also play shogi?"

"Yes, I went with Akashi in middle school." Midorima replied calmly.

"Will Akashi-kun do it too?!" Chiho was shocked, but after thinking about it, that young master should be the type who knows everything and is very powerful.

——How powerful is it?I really want to play against him.

But Akashi is far away in Kyoto, hope is very slim.

"Sigh~ Although I really want to play chess with Xiaozhen, but you still want to play basketball, so I don't bother you." Chiho sighed and opened Midorima's notes.

"Tch, it's just sitting close, it's disgusting..."

"Keep your voice down...you'll be heard."

—— From nowhere, the voices of other girls sounded into Chiho's ears clearly.

Boys from sports clubs have always been very popular in school, and girls who have a good relationship with them will be jealous and isolated by other girls. Although it is unreasonable, this is the cruel fact, and Chiho's interest is like that of an old man. Shogi, since she was in elementary school, she has encountered countless similar malice.

— But I've heard enough of that.

It's fine to just block it out automatically, it won't have any effect on the road she's about to embark on.

Chiho has long been used to these things, she didn't react at all to the discussion just now, and concentrated on reading the notes very calmly.

"If I have time...it's not impossible." Midorima's caring and awkward low voice made her turn the page stiff.

"Well, then please give me some advice~ Xiaozhen." The corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and his fingers caressed his delicate and neat handwriting.

The final exam was successfully passed with the help of Lvjian Xueba, entering the summer vacation, and the hot and dry air invaded the whole city.

Erkaitang gladly accepted Chiho's invitation to live together, not only because he could stay with his close friends, but also because it was a new experience for him that he had never had before.Tongshan didn't object either, and his personality became much more cheerful after getting acquainted with Kawamoto's family.

Ushijima will arrive in Tokyo to attend IH in August, and the co-studio will be just before that, but——

In the morning, Chiho walked into the Tokyo Gymnasium and was invited by Ayane. Today is the first day of the national competition of Shiratorizawa Middle School.

She specially asked Shimada for leave, and she planned to visit Shiratorizawa's juniors.

"Hello, Ayane~" Chiho dialed the phone, "Are you guys at the volleyball hall? Is the opening ceremony over? Okay, I'll be right there!"

She was about to walk in a familiar direction when she saw two people standing in the aisle ahead.

One is tall and one is short, one is wearing a T-shirt and the other is wearing a team uniform.

Memories of that day flooded in, Chiho stopped in her tracks, hesitating whether to wait for them to leave before going over.

Kurobi is here today to cheer on Grind, who is about to participate in the national competition. Grind's team has become one of the representatives of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. As soon as the opening ceremony ended, he was called out to explain the tactics he learned in high school to help him .

"Ah..." The golden cat's eyes moved slightly, keenly capturing Chiho's existence, "Ahei, look over there."

Kurobi looked in the direction indicated by the grinding—it was the former Shiratorizawa manager whom he met last time.

"Grinding, wait for me." After a moment of hesitation, Kurobi said, walking towards Chiho.

——Ah!was found!

Chiho wailed in her heart, but pretended to walk calmly, intending to pretend that she didn't remember them, and brushed past Kurobi.

However, Heiwei didn't give her a chance to slip away, when the distance between the two was only five centimeters, he reached out to stop her.

"What a coincidence~ we meet again." Kurobi rolled his eyes and smiled at Chiho.

"Hmm... yes, yes." Chiho tilted her head and stammered to answer, feeling very scared in her heart, because Kurotail's expression looked as if she was going to eat her.

——You really are bad!right!

"...May I ask if you have anything else to do?" Seeing that he hadn't answered for a long time, Chiho mustered up her courage and asked.

"This classmate~" Heiwei was still smiling, "What's your name, please? Can you give me your phone number? Email address is also fine~"

"Huh?" Chiho was stunned, frowning and looking at him—is this a conversation?

"Alas~" Grinding drooped his lower eyelids and sighed weakly.Ever since I met Chiho last time, Kurobi has been talking about it from time to time, regretting not leaving her contact information.

"Senior—!!" At this moment, a clear and lively female voice came, breaking the stagnant atmosphere in the corridor.

"Ayane!" Chiho quickly recognized the voice, "Here I am!"

"I haven't seen anyone after waiting for you for a long time, so I came out to pick you up~ Hey, isn't this a member of Yinju Middle School? He got separated from his teammates?—Who is he?" Ayane rushed to Chiho. , her black hair had become very long, and a pair of light purple eyes shone with excitement and confusion. She looked at Chiho, then at Heiwei and Grinding, and she was ignorant of what was happening in front of her.

Chiho excitedly held Ayane's hand: "It's nothing, I don't know them~ let's go, Ayane, take me to see everyone."

Just when the savior arrived, not wanting to be entangled by Kurobi, Chiho held Ayane's arm tightly and pulled her away from here.

"Hey!" Heiwei hurriedly reached out to her back, "At least tell me your name!"

"Yasuhara Chiho." She answered neatly without turning her head.

While grinding, Chiho seemed to hear him say "Ahei is an idiot...".

——A bit concerned but not too concerned, Chiho felt that she should meet these two cat-like boys in the future.

Just like cats you meet on the street, you don't know where and how they will appear in front of you in the next second.

So at this time, just wait for that unexpected moment to come.

Goodbye bye.

"My name is Heiwei Tielang!" His gentle and magnetic voice sounded behind him, and Chiho silently remembered the name in his heart.

——Speaking of which, I also met Miracles here, and I was also asked for a phone number.

What an amazing place.

The process of meeting with the juniors of Shiratorizawa Middle School was very pleasant. Under the guidance of coach Washi, Goshiki has grown into the ace of the new generation. The juniors who were once impulsive have also matured a lot. What makes Chiho the most happy is Fujii The knot in my heart has been untied.

Even the unreliable Mr. Morita began to do his best.

——It’s great that your hard work as a senior was not in vain.

Before the match, Chiho and Ayane sat on the sidelines, chatting casually.

"By the way, Senior Chiho, this is for you." Ayane took out a thick stack of paper from her bag, and Chiho took it over to see that it was the sheet music of the song she sang at the school festival.

"Ayane, is this—?"

"I'm sorry, but I actually lied to you at that time." Ayane lowered her head, "We didn't have any lead singers in our performance, and this song was specially written for you."

"What?" Chiho's eyes widened in surprise, "But why... I'm not worthy of you..."

"No, Senior Chiho, of course you deserve it." Ayane replied firmly.

"It was you who brought me to this position and taught me another way to survive. I am very grateful to you. This song is my thank you."

"Ayane..." Listening to her words, Qiansui couldn't help the tears of moving in her eyes, holding the music score in trembling hands, she didn't know how to respond to this thank you gift.

"Is that boy in the aisle just trying to strike up a conversation with senior?" Lingyin asked suddenly.

"Probably." Chiho replied, "What's wrong? Asking this suddenly."

"Hmph~ Where's senior? After dumping Ushishima-kun, do you want to have a new boyfriend?" Ayane approached her with gossip.

Chiho's face was stained pink: "No no no no - I didn't dump Ruoli! No no no, I never dated him at all! Where did you hear that, Ayane..."

"Hey~ everyone spread it like this? Could it be that the news is wrong?" Ayane blinked innocently, "I heard that Ushishima-kun's confession to you was rejected?"

"Ah, that's...!" Chiho couldn't argue, she didn't know how the news got out, logically speaking, only she and Ushijima would know.

--Could it be that?

No way, is Ruoli that kind of person?

——No, if someone asked him, Ruo Li might really say it.

No wonder his teammate Tiantong sounded weird on the phone that day.

"Ruoli——!!" Chiho clenched her fists and growled fiercely. Now her eyes were burning, and her curly long hair was flying in all directions. Yin was terrified.

"Well... Senior Chiho, please calm down first, the competition is about to begin!" Ayane's legs trembled, and she retreated three meters away, "I have to go to the bench, sorry!"

"Huh——" Chiho looked at Ayane's back, let out a long sigh of relief, took out her mobile phone and sent Ushijima a message——

Tojori: If you don’t apologize to me before you come to Tokyo, don’t even think about seeing me~

—Hmph, of course I lied to you.

The author has something to say:

small theater:

Niu Dao (pointing to the phone): What does she mean by that?

Tiantong: Let me see——!It probably refers to... the swimsuit photo?

Sensei: Uh... I don't know.

Daping: Rumors about you being dumped have spread widely recently, does she know about it too?

Ushido (suddenly realizes): Oh, but isn't that the truth?

All: ...that's exactly what I said.
