[Comprehensive main volleyball] long distance pass

Although Xiude's team members watched the whole process, the information they got was only "the ace of our family may have fallen in love with her" - the fact that the tip of the iceberg in this whole incident was enough to set off a storm in the basketball team. The wind and the waves.

That's right, even Midorima himself realized that he was probably really in love.

After returning to the room that day, Midorima's expression was the same as usual, but he began to lose his mind about everything. When his teammates talked to him, they would always be stunned for three seconds before reacting.When he saw Chiho in the restaurant early the next morning, the ambiguous scene from last night came to his mind again, the spoon in his hand kept shaking, and the soup he just scooped up spilled back into the bowl again.

To make matters worse, she still didn't know about it, and after greeting him and Takao with a smile as usual, she sat at the same table with Kiriyama Erkaitang and started eating.

The training after that was also the same. Even though he never missed a three-pointer, his movements were muddled. I don’t know how many times he was scolded by the coach and punished for running laps.

"Miyaji-senpai, what should we do..." Between training sessions, Takao and the seniors whispered together, looking worriedly at Midorima who was still on the penalty lap.

"How would I know! I've never been in a relationship!" The only girl Miyaji has ever liked is his girl idol group, and he is a fanatical idol otaku.

Daping and Kimura spread their hands neatly, expressing that they were also helpless.

"Ah..." Takao sighed, then lifted his hair proudly, "I can't help it, so I have to help him~ Anyway, I'm also the best at sending assists."

"What are you talking about there, kid! You sound like you're very experienced, virgin!" Miyaji punched Takao violently, "Kimura, there's still some leftover watermelon you brought. Right? Hit him hard in the face!"

"Wow, senior Miyaji, lighten up—!"

Kimura's family owns a vegetable and fruit shop, and he kindly brought a cart of watermelons for everyone to eat this time.

"Watermelon is very expensive, Miyaji." Kimura felt sorry for his own fruit being wasted for this kind of use.

"Okay, okay~ Anyway, let's talk about this matter after the camp is over, Midorima is not the kind of weak-willed person, I believe he will find a solution soon~" Captain Daping came out to uphold justice, although sometimes Feeling uncomfortable with Midorima's waywardness, he still has a lot of trust in his trump card.

As Datsubo said, after Chiho left the inn that evening, Midorima's condition finally eased, and he began to slowly return to his original appearance.

——But the teammates said that the original Shintaro Midorima gave them even more headaches!

Although it was only a short three days, when Chiho left the B&B in the car of Erkaitang's family, it felt as if it had gone through a century.

She didn't mention what happened last night to Tongshan and Erhaitang.

Chiho sat quietly in the car, turned her head slightly to look out the window, and said goodbye to this beautiful beach in her heart.

After several days of continuous game practice, she can feel that her chess skills are breaking through the shackles of the past, she can win two or three games from Tongshan, and is growing rapidly towards the future.

Not just chess skills, but the things about her father that she buried in her heart also made her xinxing more tenacious and mature overnight.

The nightingale that sings for others all day long has pried open the cage door, flapping its wings happily, singing loudly, and preparing to fly freely to the vast sky.

Then, next-

She frowned tightly, her eyes were sharp, and she grinned.

——Jori and the others are coming to Tokyo.

Just let me see how much you've grown.

"Xiaozhen~Xiaoqian said that she is going to watch the volleyball IH match tomorrow, and I have an appointment to go with her, do you want to come?" Gao Wei yelled on the phone, "It just so happens that these two days are rest days, and it just so happens after the sleepover Just relax~ And it’s said that it’s Udo’s game~”

Midorima originally wanted to hang up the phone without waiting for him to finish speaking, but hesitated after hearing "Niujima".

Midorima, who is cold on the outside but extremely delicate on the inside, actually knew that she still liked her bamboo horse since she heard Chiho's story about her and Ushijima last time, even if she didn't realize it in her heart.

And Niu Dao is also sure that he will not give up easily just because he was rejected once.

I only met Ushishima once in the street basketball game in Teiko, but Midorima admired him very much, because Ushishima resembled him very much.

——From the external left-handed habit to the internal determination to be the ace of the team, they have too many similarities.

So when he found out that he also fell in love with Chiho, he felt mixed emotions.

As long as he saw her appearing in front of him, his mind would become chaotic uncontrollably, and he didn't know how to move his hands and feet, as if there were thousands of soft feathers tickling his body, disturbing his mind.

"Okay." Midorima replied succinctly.

——This state of affairs cannot continue.

He also wants to avenge Seirin in the Winter Cup and regain Xiude's dignity as the "king".

Going to watch Ushido's game with Chiho is an excellent opportunity to directly confirm the hearts of the three parties.

"Eh?" Takao was visibly stunned for a moment, all the words of persuasion that he had prepared long ago were blocked, and he was so shocked that he didn't know how to respond.

"When will we meet tomorrow? Where is the match?" Midorima ignored Takao's silence and asked one sentence after another.

"Pfft...Xiao Zhen," on the other end of the phone, Takao covered his mouth in relief to prevent himself from laughing, "It seems that you really like her~"

"Shut up, Takao, and answer my question quickly."

"Hi~"

Chiho didn't know why, after returning from the seaside camp, Takao was very concerned about her every move.

Send her emails every now and then, asking her what her plans are in the near future. If it is not for the basketball team to continue training, she thinks he may directly become a stalker.

But she just thought of him as an overly enthusiastic friend, just like Erkaitang was to Kiriyama, but she was very cute by nature, so she let him make trouble, just as a seasoning for her mediocre shogi routine.

But of course Chiho would not discover the secret behind Takao's series of actions.

When he said curiously that he wanted to go to the Ushido game with him, Chiho agreed, and later he told himself that Midorima would also go, and she readily agreed.

——Anyway, it’s not very interesting to watch the game alone. If there are more people with you, there are still people you can talk to.

By the way, let Midorima and Niu Dao, the former "teacher and apprentice" meet.

"Xiaozhen?" In front of the Tokyo Gymnasium, Chiho arrived at the appointed place early, and waved her arms to Midorima who was behind, but she didn't see Takao's figure.

"Where's Xiaohe? Why didn't you come with you?" She asked strangely. It stands to reason that these two people would always appear with the cart.

"From Takao: Don't mess it up, Makoto, come on!" Midorima held up his phone, furious.

"Takao he..."

"Oh~ Xiaohe said that he couldn't come today due to urgent matters at home, so let's go in together." Just as Midorima was about to speak, Chiho looked down at the phone and said to him.

There was nothing he could do with his "witty" partner, Midorima had no choice but to nod helplessly, and followed Chiho into the gymnasium.

The Tokyo Gymnasium is huge, and he is only familiar with the basketball stadium, but he has never been to the volleyball stadium at the other end.

There were a lot of spectators who came to watch the game, and the stream of people on the aisle was walking back and forth, Midorima followed closely behind Chiho, for fear of losing her.

I saw Chiho deftly turning around and leading Midorima to find the entrance of the auditorium. The two walked in. There were still many vacancies in the huge volleyball hall.

It was the first time for him to watch a volleyball game live, and he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him——

The four volleyball courts in the arena are neatly lined up. The area is much larger than that of the basketball court. The high ceiling covers the top and the dazzling lights are shining from top to bottom.The capacity of the auditorium is twice that of the basketball arena. There are already cheerleaders sitting in it in a square shape. There are cheering slogans hanging everywhere on the railings of the stands. The game has not yet started, and the loud slogans or singing The voices have already started fighting with each other.

"How about it, isn't it great here?" Chiho said proudly, "This is where our middle school won two national championships~"

She turned her head with a smile, winked at Midorima, and raised the corners of her mouth.

- "Welcome to, 'Orange Volleyball Court'."

Since Ushijima was busy with training, Chiho also had a lot of backlog practice games to play in the chess club after returning from the dojo, and the two did not meet immediately after Ushishima came to Tokyo with the team.

Shiratorozawa High School has successfully passed the round robin within the group, and today is their quarter-finals.

In the group stage, Chiho was always absent, but instead of feeling guilty, she even sent an email to Ushijima with a smirk: "If you don't make it to the quarterfinals, don't even think about seeing me~"

As a result, the mobile phone was snatched by Tiantong, and the teammates who saw this email were all as if they had been beaten to death. They were all more energetic than Udo.

"Hmm..." In the locker room before the match, Coach Jiujiang saw that the teenagers standing in a row in front of him were all valiant, with excitement shining in their eyes, which made him nod in satisfaction.

——The eagle craftsman was still kept in the dark, thinking that his team members were full of confidence in the upcoming game.

"Everyone performed very well in the previous games, and we must maintain this state in this game. Remember what I taught you. Our goal is——?"

"National champion!" The loud and tidy answer.

"Very well, let's enter."

In the stands, Chiho and Midorima had already found the support seats of Shiratorizawa High School, and sat down in the last row in a low-key manner.

The playing field of Shiratorizawa High School is directly below the cheering seats where the two are sitting. The opponent is one of the representatives of Tokyo, Owl Valley High School.

"Owl Valley?" Chiho murmured, recalling the vast amount of information collected before, "The powerful schools in Tokyo are very solid in offense and defense. Is the quarter-finals match against such a difficult one..."

"The players are starting to enter." At this moment, Midorima reminded her.

"Oh!" Chiho stopped talking to herself, and quickly sat up straight.

The gate opened, and the eight teams entered the stadium one by one. There was a detailed introduction for each team on the radio, down to the name and position of each member of the team—this is the case in national competitions, and Chiho is already very used to it. Her eyes flicked left and right, waiting for Shiratorizawa to enter.

It has been several months since we parted with Ushijima, listening to the radio reporting the team information sentence by sentence, unconsciously, Chiho's heart beat faster and faster——

After introducing Xiaogu, the next one is Shiratorizawa.

"Here we come." Midorima said, while squinting at Chiho nervously.

—Is she nervous too?

Chiho's eyes turned to the gate, and the backlit background made her unable to see the person standing at the gate clearly, so she squinted her eyes.

——The answer is yes.Midorima knew that today he had to make a settlement here.

"Next, Shiratorizawa High School." A flat female voice sounded above her head on the radio, "Number 9, Hikari Kujo, captain, MB."

"Shiratori Ze! Shiratori Ze! Shiratori Ze!" The cheering group standing up in the front row shouted magnificently.

Chiho stood up from her seat.

Familiar and unfamiliar names poured into her ears one by one, her body trembled with excitement, and the players of Shiratorizawa ran into the field wearing white and purple jerseys.

The chosen name will soon be read to the end.

She could see clearly now, the person she was most familiar with and couldn't let go ran into her sight.

——"No. 1, Ushishima Wakari, WS."

We hadn't seen each other for a few months, and he looked taller again.

The body has also become stronger than before.

He was still wearing the pair of black sneakers she gave him.

He still had that serious expression on his face.

—Tears fell down uncontrollably.

"Ruoli..." Chiho's feet softened, she sat down, and wiped away her tears with her hands in a panic.

A dark green handkerchief was handed to her, and a low and awkward voice came: "Don't cry, you look ugly when you cry."

Ushijima has been looking for Chiho in the auditorium since he entered the arena.

He raised his head and looked around the cheering seats of his school, but he couldn't find her.

She frowned subconsciously. According to the previous agreement, she should be here today.

"Jun Ruoli?" Tiantong stood beside him and asked softly, "Is she here?"

"I haven't seen it yet."

"Oh~" Tiantong sighed.

Daping, who was standing on the other side of Niu Island, comforted: "It's okay Ruoli, I think she will definitely come."

Seti, who was separated by a person, said firmly: "No matter what, we will win."

"Hmm." Ushishima briefly responded to the kindness from his teammates.

"Both sides of the competition - line up and say hello!"

"Please advise!"

Both Owl Valley and Shiratorizawa have strong strengths at the national level, and both teams have newly recruited the most outstanding main attackers in middle school this year-Kotaro Kitu and Ushishima Wakari.

The situation of the game is very stalemate, the strength of the two teams is too close, until the last moment, no one can predict the result of this game.

Chiho clutched the handkerchief tightly, the tears on her face had disappeared, replaced by cold sweat continuously dripping down.

It was the first time for her to watch a high school volleyball game, and the intensity of the game was not at the same level as in middle school.Although Ushido's performance is still very stable, and his smash power is much stronger than before, his opponents are not so easy to deal with, because they have almost the same sharp weapons as Shiratorizawa.

Mutu is a first-year main attacker who likes to smash the ball and yell excitedly. Xiaogu has attracted people's attention because of his existence, and he can always hear weird shouts of "hehehe" from time to time in the field.

Ushido is the complete opposite, always silently dunking the ball with terrifying power, while at the same time killing the opponent with fierce eyes.

The competitions in other venues have already ended one after another, but Xiaogu and Shiratorozawa fought fiercely with equal strength until the last round of continuous equal points.

Only the team that wins by two points in a row wins, and neither side has been able to do that yet.

The support teams of the two schools were shouting hoarsely, but they were still desperately cheering for their own teams. Shiratorizawa even sang the school song.

On the court, big beads of sweat dripped from Niu Dao's body, and his nerves were tense, preparing for Xiaogu's next attack.

——Now Shiratorizawa is one point behind, and this goal drove them to the edge of the cliff.

"Come on, Shiratorizawa——!"

Suddenly, a dissonance sounded in the neat school song.

To Niu Dao, it is the most pleasing sound in the world.

The sound reinvigorated his tired body, and his senses became crystal clear.

His teammates also heard that voice, and the teenagers were all cheered up. They are now white eagles soaring in the stadium.

"3-2, Shiratorizawa won." The referee finally announced.

Players from both sides on the court take turns shaking hands in front of the net.

Even though he had already won, Ushido became more nervous than when he was one point behind.

He stretched out his hand stiffly, and shook hands with Xiaogu's team members one by one, even Mutu didn't hear what he said to him when he moved closer.

Returning to the locker room with his teammates in a daze, Ushishima sat on the stool in a daze, and had no intention of changing the already soaked team uniform.

Coach Jiujiang was standing aside to review the game for them, but found that his ace's expression and behavior were very abnormal.

"What's the matter with you, Ushishima?" Jiu Jiang interrupted the replay, walked up to him and asked.

"Coach~Ruo Lijun is nervous~" Tiantong put on a crooked pose and said in an extremely ambiguous tone.

The others also stared at Niu Dao, they all understood what Tendo meant.

"Are you thinking about tomorrow's semi-finals?" Jiu Jiang was puzzled. The kid looked like a captain, so he comforted him: "Uu Dao, don't push yourself like this, although each game will be more difficult..."

"I'm sorry, Coach Jiujiang." Unexpectedly, Ushijima stood up suddenly and walked outside the locker room, "Let me leave for a moment, I have very important things to do now."

"Ushido?!" Eagle Carpenter stretched out his hands behind his back, watching with surprise that Ushido opened the locker room door and ran out.

"Wait for me, Ruori-kun~!" Tendo reacted quickly, and the second one rushed out, followed by Semi Ohira and Yamagata.

"Ahaha~ I'm sorry, coach, we can punish us whatever we want in the future, but everyone must rush over now~" Kujo patted Eagle Craftsman on the shoulder and ran away from the locker room.

"Hey Kujo!" Saito and Chiba also followed.

"Hahaha Coach~ I'm sorry, although I usually listen to you, but now I have to leave for a while~" Ozaki smiled and waved his hands, and was the last one to leave the locker room.

"Brats, come back to me—!"

"That... Coach Jiujiang," the instructor adjusted his glasses beside him, and said awkwardly, "You don't know about this yet?"

"what?"

"Ushijima's favorite childhood sweetheart, the former manager of the volleyball club of Shiratorizawa Middle School Chiho Yasuhara came to watch the game, and now he is going to confess."

"...come back and let them each serve 100 balls and catch 100 balls."

"Yes! Then I'm going to watch~"

"I'll go too."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh—!?"

The author has something to say:

I thought this chapter could be about confession, but... (paralyzed

do not hit me! !The next chapter will be there! !
