The loud sound of the ball hitting the floor seemed to be hitting everyone's chests in Yinku.Risa closed her eyes not daring to look at everyone.The team leader Naoi beside him patted her on the shoulder, she turned her head to look, and the expression of the team leader mixed with emotion and unwillingness was deeply imprinted in her mind.

On the other side of the net is the picture of last year's champion school players embracing and celebrating.

On their side, every team member's face was stunned.

In the short second from when the volleyball landed to when the referee blew the final whistle, Heiwei felt that this moment seemed as long as a century, and even in this second, he felt that the entire gymnasium was so quiet that he could hear the sound of a needle dropping.He raised his head slightly, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then patted the players on the back one by one, "Let's go, go to line up."

By the time Risa realized it, tears had already dripped down the back of her hand.She hurriedly wiped away her tears and adjusted her mood.Obviously, Ah Hei must be the one who wants to cry the most... Thinking of this, Risa's heart softened for an instant.

The players returned to the rest area and quickly packed up their things.But the atmosphere of silence made the air condense.Yejiu slammed his fist on the chair with one hand, and shouted unwillingly: "Damn it!" If he had reacted faster, moved faster, and ran faster just now... maybe he could have saved the ball .

"Senior Yejiu!" Hui Yu squatted beside Yejiu dejectedly, a little at a loss.

Heiwei clenched his hands behind his back tightly into fists, clenched and released, clenched and then relaxed, and after repeating this several times, he seemed to calm down.He whispered: "Okay! Let's go after packing up! Don't make the next team wait too long!"

Everyone bowed their heads back and forth, or couldn't help but feel depressed.

The summer of third grade is over!

I don't know since when, the summer of the third grade has become synonymous with sadness.How many seniors in the third grade have bid farewell to their dreams in this way, and most of them will even choose to retire and focus on studying for college entrance exams.And now, they have finally come to the end of the summer of the third grade——

Kurobi was at the head of the line, and Risa was at the end.She stopped and took a look. The backs of her team members felt an indescribable sadness, and she felt her nose was sore.She sniffed hard, held back her tears, and trotted two steps to keep up with the team.

"...Risa-chan, don't cry." Ye Jiu, who was walking in front of her, seemed to have heard the voice behind her, and deliberately slowed down and waited for her.

"I didn't cry." Lisa raised her head and wiped her eyes deliberately, "Look! Not a single tear."

"Okay, you didn't cry." Today's Ye Jiu was very gentle, it seemed that the anger on the court just now had made him all volatile!He said softly: "Risa, although our summer is over, I believe that everyone will work hard to reach Chungao together." So, next time, they will turn today's reluctance into hard work, and definitely go further!

Risa was infected by Yejiu, she nodded her head several times, "En!"

***

After returning to school from the competition field, everyone made a routine summary and introspection, and the coach asked everyone to go back and have a good rest.

Black Tail, Lone Claw, and Risa silently pushed the cart and set foot on the way home.I don't know if it's because of the loss, but Risa feels that the blue sky and white clouds that she usually likes most now look gloomy, and the flowers, plants and trees on both sides of the street are listless.Just now Heiwei showed her big white teeth as usual, and smiled very brightly. He rubbed her hair and said to her, "It seems that I haven't worked hard enough!" At that time, she almost cried.

Arriving at her and Lone Claw's house first, Black Tail said goodbye to them with a smile.He watched the two of them staring at him solemnly, he couldn't help pinching his cheek with his left hand, and pinching hers with his right hand, and when he saw the two of them blowing their hair together, he immediately laughed and got on his bike and ran away. .

Risa and Lone Claw looked at each other, their lips moved as they wanted to say something.Lone Claw, who has always been very understanding of people's hearts, stared at her for a while, and whispered, "Go and see Ah Hei." She looked like her heart had already flown to Ah Hei, and when she was asked by Aunt Aichuan at home, she would definitely want to Showed his feet.

"En." Risa was pushed by Lone Claw with such words, and immediately stepped into the car and chased after him.

Risa stopped at the gate of Heowei's house, glanced into the yard, but didn't see his car.After thinking for a while, she rushed to the small garden near the block.

Panting, she parked the car, and looked inside, and she saw that Heiwei was sitting by the flower bed, teasing the wild cat with great interest...

Seeing this, Risa couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth!Sure enough, cats can heal Ah Hei better!She curled her lips, and just about to retreat slowly, she met Heiwei's eyes looking at her.

"Risa-chan!" Heiwei hunched over, her hair was messed up as usual, her voice was very soft, but Risa walked towards him involuntarily.

She dawdled to the other side of the cat and sat down.They are no strangers to this kitten, and occasionally come to feed it at night or on weekends.She touched the cat's neck, and after the cat let out a comfortable meow, it seemed that it disliked that they didn't bring something delicious to honor the old man, so it immediately jumped off the flower bed and walked away.

With no more cats to tease, Kurobi withdrew his raised hand in mid-air, "The dream of the national competition is about to be postponed again." Kurobi looked sideways at Risa, and said in a teasing tone: "The crybaby hasn't lost today. Tears? This is unscientific!"

Risa glared at him, she was still slick at this time, she really didn't change her mind!She retorted: "Crybaby is grinding!"

"Ha! Really?" She also had the nerve to say?When was a child hit by a volleyball and didn't cry?

Ah Hei still in the mood to joke with her?Risa deeply felt that she didn't need to come here to comfort him pretentiously!However, even though she thought so, she still coughed twice to get his attention.Risa stood up and walked in front of Kurobi, she put her hands on her hips, leaned forward slightly, and said to him, "Give me your hand."

"Huh?" Black Tail stretched out his left hand curiously.

"...Change one." Risa thought for a while, then asked again.

"Oh." Heiwei obediently switched to his right hand.

Risa's small eyes first glanced at the little flowers and grasses beside him, and then muttered in a very low voice, "You mustn't laugh." She stretched out both hands to hold Kurobi's hand tightly, and stared into his eyes. Without blinking, she said earnestly, "Although our summer is over, there is still Chungao—" Before she could speak provocatively, Heiwei lowered her head and laughed.

"Hahahahaha! Ri, Risa——"

"Hey!" Lisa was furious, and she wanted to say something like "don't worry about studying, she will be their most solid backing, and try my best to make them have no worries", but the atmosphere was completely destroyed by him, okay?

Heiwei covered his mouth and tried to hold back the laughter, but he still couldn't restrain the voice full of laughter. He felt something in his palm panicking, "What is this?"

"Well... It's the victory guard I begged for Yinkoma." Risa withdrew her hand and hastily argued: "I wanted to give it to you early this morning, but then I forgot it when I got dizzy." Said She paused for a moment, and continued: "It's useless this time, but it will definitely bless us from now on to win the game until the national championship."

The national competition is a stage that almost everyone who joins the club strives for and yearns for.The remorse of failure, the bond of friendship between members of the club, and the dream of passing on—for example, their coach and Karasuno's coach have always wanted to compete in the garbage dump on the stage of the national competition. Gone are the youthful days.

"Risa-chan's goal... is very ambitious." Kurobi caressed Mimoru back and forth, his head lowered so that Risa couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

That's because I believe in you!When this sentence reached Risa's mouth, she turned a corner again, "Ahei?"

Heiwei raised her head upon hearing this, and looked up at her. Using his height as a reference, she was obviously a short girl, but now she felt that her shoulders were strong enough to carry his dream together.Her youth meets his, she regards his dream as hers, and nothing moves him more than this.

Heowei's eyes flickered, and he seemed to have a lot to say to her for a moment, but in the end he grabbed her arm, pulled her to sit beside her, and said in a slightly coquettish tone: "Risa-chan, I lost the game today, so sad."

"...Don't speak in such a disgusting tone!"

"Risa-chan is so fierce!"

"...Do you dare to make this "little daughter-in-law" look again? Risa raised her fist threateningly and shook it in front of his eyes.

"Hey!"

"..." Lisa couldn't bear it anymore and stretched out her hand to twist his arm, but it hit him in the arms and hugged him into her arms.

"Let me hug you." Heiwei's voice was low and hoarse, exploding in her ear like a dick.

Risa's face was flushed, and she didn't even know where to put her hands.The brain went through the initial blankness, and then the cranky thoughts later—"Is Ah Hei very sad?" Feeling upset, Risa began to tangle, but her body remained rigid and did not dare to move.

Heiwei naturally felt her stupid state, and really liked seeing her at a loss, as if it could prove how important he was to her heart.

What he wants to say most now is "thank you".However, when he saw Risa's red earlobes, he couldn't help but said, "Risa-chan."

The heat exhaled by Kurobi made Risa shrink her neck, and she stammered and asked, "What, what?"

"Come and pick me up from school on Monday, okay?"

"Huh? Alright." Thinking of this guy who just lost the game, let's take it as a comfort!Risa readily agreed.

"Well, can you make me a bento next week?"

"Huh? Alright." "The summer of the third grade is over." Sure enough, even Ah Hei didn't recover so quickly, so let's cheer him up!Risa hesitated for a second and nodded in agreement.

The corner of Heiwei's mouth couldn't help but rise, "I can't tell others that I'm very disappointed today!"

"Okay, okay!" Risa's head resting on Kurobi's shoulder was completely relaxed.Ah Hei still has the heart to think about these things, so he should recover pretty well.Thinking of this, Risa's tense nerves also relaxed.

"Especially the grind!"

"Good good!"

"Then shall we be together?"

"Okay—hey?"
