[Kuroko's Basketball] Warm Red

Akashi knows that Sakura and Akira Oyama have always had a bad relationship, although not very detailed, they had already had conflicts in the first grade.

It was a week before the autumn competition, and the basketball team was about to usher in the middle school league. The main lineup of the basketball team had stabilized. Unlike them, who were more than enough to win the competition, as the schedule approached, the archery team was filled with a tense and orderly atmosphere. .

That day, Akashi came out to wash his face, and when he wiped his hair with a towel, he saw the unique figure of a member of the archery department in a hakama suit from the corner of his eye.

"Since you know, don't talk to me."

He heard Sakura's voice sporadically, and at that time he was slightly surprised that there was such a big mountain that Sakura hated.

There seemed to be some conflict between them, the two of them faced each other with gloomy expressions, they seemed to be arguing about something, suddenly he saw Sakura shake off Dashan's approaching wrist.

There is a shadow under Akashi's eyes in the backlight, and the figures of the two people in the corridor can't be said to be emotional exchanges, but more like conflicts.In the blurry scene where the two passed each other, Akashi felt a sense of disobedience for a moment, and he could feel Sakura's stiffness as if he had been hit.

Sakura couldn't forget Dashan's voice, and she couldn't react until the end of the morning exercise.

Dashan stood silently in front of her for a while, then brushed his body and whispered softly, then left.

"You hate me so much? Wouldn't it be better if I didn't participate? If you say yes, I won't participate in the tournament."

Sakura froze for a moment, his words in her ears did not dissipate, she stood still.What does he mean by this.

Does Dashan mean to give up the competition?It's true that she hated Dashan very much, but what she hated was hated.Sakura's heart seemed to be gloomy, unable to figure it out.

When he really wanted to quit, Sakura couldn't accept it, and felt a strange sense of discomfort in her heart. Where did she feel that Dashan's tone was very sad, like the feeling of loneliness when no one kept him, obviously possessing an incomparable Strength is alone.

She didn't know if this was her illusion. After all, Dashan had never paid much attention to archery in his heart, and he didn't care about these boring things whether he was alone or two.

But why, Sakura thought that Dashan seemed to be longing for something.

"You are my kind, Kurina. One day you will be like me."

"Sakura." There was a ringing in his ear.

Dashan's face suddenly flickered in his mind, and changed into Akashi's puzzled expression in front of him, what, what?

"The teacher is calling you." Akashi reminded, his delicate eyebrows twitched, "The equation on page 67."

"Ah, yes!" Sakura turned her head to look at the teacher who was waiting for her on the podium, and hurriedly got up from the seat to answer the question.

At the end of the last letter, Sakura felt empty, and the chalk resting on the blackboard snapped in two sections.On the contrary, she looked very depressed, walked down step by step and saw Akashi's gaze, rubbed her head and smiled foolishly.

For some reason, Akashi's mood fluctuated, his eyes sank, and he looked away.

Obviously that's what happened.He was on the side at that time, although it was only in the distance, but Akashi knew the reason without even thinking about it - Akiichi Oyama.

Just when Sakura's thoughts were about to drift away, her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and she heard Akashi's cold voice, with slight anger.

This is no longer a one-year group class, but already the last chemistry experiment class in the morning.

"Hey Sakura, this is dilute sulfuric acid." Akashi couldn't help but emphasize his tone.

Sakura was relieved to realize that the openings of the two test tubes in the hand held by Akashi were not aligned. She hurriedly made amends.

With such a big movement while holding dangerous goods in your hand, if you don't hurt others, you will splash yourself.He looked at the appearance of Sakura's unknown matter in front of him, but was frightened, his eyes were terribly cold, and his tone was stern, "I said it was dilute sulfuric acid, and this is the third time I remind you. If you are not in good condition, you have to watch it." Occasionally, you go and sit aside."

Following Akashi's order, Sakura found that the eyes of the team members were all focused on him, and everyone agreed with Akashi's decision.Sakura lowered her eyes, her face calmed down but she didn't know what was going on in her heart, she apologized, "I'm sorry."

"I won't affect everyone anymore, let me record the phenomenon." Sakura's tone was sincere, and everyone handed her the record book by default.

Sakura didn't have any problems again. She seriously handed in the experiment report of her group, packed up her things silently, and left without hearing her companion calling her.

The girls in the class who were skipped were puzzled, pointing to Sakura's figure, and asked Akashi, the only person still around, "This is weird, isn't it?"

Akashi raised his eyes and uttered a syllable in response.

Sakura was wandering in the corridor, and it was not a good idea to ask Dashan or Hayakawa-senpai. What should she do at this time, Sakura hesitated until the day before the competition, the Kyudo Department confirmed the contestants again.

"Hey, isn't Dashan still here?" Hayakawa roared.

"Yes! Minister, Dashan has always been like this!"

Hayakawa was very dissatisfied with this, "Are you kidding me? This is an official game, so it's fine for him to just play around." He lowered his head and swiped heavily on the roster, "If something happens to him in the weekend game, the alternate members should pay attention to replace him!"

What they said was right, Dashan has always been like this, absent from training without authorization, disappearing, and appearing in the dojo without authorization, but his archery figure is as straight and sharp as the arrows he shoots.

Sakura comforted himself in this way, but vaguely felt that he would be absent until the end of the competition, fulfilling his promise that he would not participate.

It seems to be my own fault.Sakura's heart choked.

"Sakura, you are crying."

She seemed to be surprised by her own tears, and raised her hand to wipe her eye sockets, her voice trembling, "Strange, why am I... crying."

Why.Instead, Akashi was thinking about why she felt guilty, and why her guilt could hurt herself. It was Dashan himself who made the choice, and it was not her business, and it was not her who was responsible.

"I... didn't intend to hurt Dashan, although I have a hard time with him."

She kept wiping away her tears, and kept choking with sobs trying to comfort herself, the arrows in her hand were dizzy with tears.Obviously there is no harm at all, but he links the pain of others to himself, and even empathizes with him.

There is really such a kind person, this Sakura is really... a good person, Akashi spit out a word from the bottom of his heart.

"In that case, you should tell him clearly."

"Eh?" Sakura was stunned, she raised her teary eyes, Akashi stood in front of her, his brows were still straight, with a calm expression, his eyes were straight, as if it was not a strange scene at this moment, nor was it Feeling ashamed, it seemed to express the struggle in her heart, and it felt like a strong support to her. For a moment, Akashi seemed to be much taller in her heart. He seemed to smile faintly, and his smile was very beautiful.

"Sakura, you are such a person, it's not your style to cry and struggle here."

In Sakura's heart, Akashi suddenly changed from a cold boy to a heart friend with an aperture. Along with his clean appearance, he also began to stand out. Sakura, who always thought that his personality was a little out of character, instantly classified Akashi as perfect. A gentle boy who can't fault him.

"Yes!" With the awe of him in his heart, Sakura unconsciously became submissive with his words.

He looked at the direction where Sakura was leaving, and he could vaguely see the shape of his mouth slightly in the empty corridor.

true and sincere.

From the next day, Sakura ran to Dashan class every day after class to look for him, and was told that he was not there or had left school.

But time was running out, and Friday Sakura still got nothing. She came to Minister Hayakawa, and Hayakawa's eyebrows didn't move at all. He turned his head and looked down at this junior, his tone was unclear.

"It's not up to me whether I can play tomorrow or not, it's Dashan himself."

Faced with the seniority pressure of seniors and ministers in front of him, Sakura held her breath and mustered up the courage to lower her head deeply, "お望いします!"

"Even if you ask me so much..." Hayakawa frowned and scratched his head, he looked at the junior who was still unwilling to straighten up, he felt strange, "I don't understand you guys, why do you still help him even though your relationship is so bad? "

"Kowdo doesn't distinguish between people."

Even though she said so, when she arrived at the venue the next day, she still didn't see Dashan. The pen tip in Hayakawa's hand unconsciously drew several black dots on the list.

"The members of the team competition go to practice first!"

Hayakawa gave orders to stabilize their impetuous psychology. Sakura stood at the end of the line. She looked at the hesitation in Hayakawa's frowning brows.

Standing on the training ground, Sakura breathed heavily, pressed his fingertips against the arrow and drew out the first full bow of the day.The red heart of the grass target and the surrounding iron fence swept back and forth in her sight, and suddenly she saw the figure of Dashan, and the flying arrow deviated from the course and landed in the grass a few meters before the bull's eye, she immediately turned and ran towards Hayakawa, interrupted the dispute between them.

"But, Minister, it's not so good."

"Yeah, if Dashan still doesn't come, you can't be emotional in the official competition."

"There's no need for a first-year..."

"Minister! Please, don't delete Dashan from the list. I will definitely bring him here!"
