I really don’t want to play basketball

“Well, I guess it’s just a misunderstanding…”

Masako Araki, who had a red face, explained a little flustered, she was originally handsome and now a little overwhelmed.

“Alas~ I understand…” The old lady showed an expression that you don’t need to say I understand, “After all, it’s a young man~ but you still have to be quieter at night, after all, the old lady, my sleep quality is really not very good.” ”

Facing the neighbor’s old lady who turned a deaf ear to her explanation, Masako Araki couldn’t help but give up her defense.

And Araki Hikoichi, who was next to Masako Araki, was even more dazed, and the teenager who had just entered the middle school now did not understand these things at all….

It wasn’t until the first floor that Masako Araki breathed a sigh of relief, and after sending off the neighbor, she turned her head and glared at Arakihiko angrily, “Hurry up!” ”

“？”

Araki Hikoichi lies innocently and at the same time feels inexplicable about Masako Araki’s unfathomable temper.

……

Diguang Middle School.

At lunchtime, Araki Hikoichi, who was also a member of the basketball club, and others appeared at the same table again.

“Oh, Hikoichi is such a ruthless person…” Aomomine Daiki who was dining looked at Araki Hikoichi and sighed.

“Well, Hikoichi is really a ruthless person!” Several people who were also eating on the side echoed.

And Arakihiko, who was concentrating on eating a bento, raised his head in confusion and made a puzzled voice: “Huh? ”

“Gee~” Aomomine Daiki who was eating the food from the cafeteria smashed his mouth, “Hikoichi, you are the first person I have ever seen who eats a May bento and does not change his face…”

“Well, Qingfeng don’t say that!” Araki Hikoichi said a little dissatisfied, “Little Peach’s bento has always improved!” ”

“It is!” Momoi May on the side raised his eyebrows and glared at his childhood sweetheart fiercely, and then let Qingfeng Daiki, who still wanted to say something, obediently shut his mouth.

After all, Momoi May can report to Aomomine Daiki’s parents at any time, I remember that the last time I was reported by Momoi May, my grades were dropped, and now Aomomi Daiki’s pocket money is still deducted by half, if it makes Momoi May unhappy again… Hehe, then I guess I will become a poor bastard!

“However,” Seijuro Akaji, who had been smiling on the sidelines, suddenly began, “the regional qualifiers for the national competition should be about to start, right?” ”

“Wow, is it finally about to start?” The rest of the group became a little excited, “I hope to get started quickly!” As long as the qualifiers start, the coach will not train us so rigorously! ”

Looking at the group of people who couldn’t wait to hear that the game was about to start, they knew how much psychological shadow Bai Jin Gengzao’s squinting old man had left on several people.

And for the excitement of several people, Seijuro Akaji immediately poured cold water.

“No, you~ Senior Hongcun once talked to me that before the official start of the national competition, even during the qualifiers, Coach Platinum will not relax his training for us, so I advise you not to expect to have a relaxed thought…”

“Eh-”

“How is this !!!?”

……

“Toot toot—”

As the assistant coach’s whistle blew, the members of the First Army who were training breathed a sigh of relief in unison, and they quickly stood in a row.

“The list for the qualifiers is out.” The assistant coach uncle looked at his own players and said: “Because of the regional qualifiers, the competition adopts a elimination mechanism, and there are a total of sixteen junior high schools in Tokyo, that is to say, we have to play four games, and each game can not be missed, in order to ensure that we get the ticket to the national competition, although every year in the past we have been the final winner of the Emitsu Middle School, but I don’t want you to make such a low-level mistake as underestimating the enemy, I hope you can go all out for that game, in the end.” Shout out our goal! ”

“Our goal is—”

“National Champion !!!”

“Very good!” The assistant coach nodded in satisfaction, and then opened the game schedule in his hand, “Well… The first match is next Saturday, and our opponents… It’s still a familiar name. ”

The assistant coach’s face became a little strange, and he showed the progress sheet in his hand towards Araki Hikoichi, “Harada Middle School.” ”

Upon hearing this name, Arakihiko and the others were also stunned.

This is really a coincidence~

After all, the first victory of the freshmen members came from this team, and Harada Junior High School has never been a strong team, and the competition in normal years is also in the lower middle level of the sixteen middle school teams in the Tokyo Ward, but this time, I am afraid that this poor team will be out earlier.

“Well, doesn’t that look like it’s going to be easy to win next week’s game?” Qingfeng Daiki, who has a worried memory, has already forgotten what the assistant coach just said not to underestimate the enemy, and he said a little nonchalantly.

In exchange for the reprimand of the assistant coach, unexpectedly, what appeared in front of Aomine Daiki was the amiable face of Shirogane Cultivation, the devil grandfather.

“Oh, since Qingfeng-san can say such easy words, it seems to be very energetic, come on, Hongcun-san, please take Qingfeng-san to do ten sets of bench presses, don’t be too heavy, just use the limit weight of Qingfeng-san last time, and you must keep an eye on Oh, if Qingfeng-san misses one, Hongcun-san, it will make up for double!”

“Eh!” Shirogane Genzo’s words made Qingfeng Daiki jump up directly, and he immediately looked at himself looking kind, but the coach who was as cold as a demon in his heart begged for mercy: “Woo, coach, I’m wrong, I won’t underestimate the enemy when I pair up, just now I’m just joking, we must take such an opponent as Harada Middle School seriously!” ”

At the same time, Aomine Daiki also turned his head to give his captain a look, hoping that Hongmura Shuzo could help him intercede.

However, it was a pity that Hongmura Shuzo turned a blind eye to Aomine Daiki’s eyebrows, and he bowed at Shirogane Cultivation, “I know.” ”

Then he dragged the still struggling Daiki towards the equipment area.

Listening to the continuous screams from Aomine Daiki, Araki and the others nodded solemnly.

“Hey, Harada Junior High School is really a tricky opponent…”

“Yes, yes, you must not take it lightly…”

“You have to go all out…”

And for everyone’s performance, Bai Jin Genzao also nodded with a smile: “That’s right~ It’s all a group of serious children…”
