Chapter 45, the World Championships begin

"Xu Jun, can you come over for a moment?" said Oda Maki with some embarrassment.

"Wow, he can speak Chinese. Yu Fei said in surprise.

"Hey, Brother Xu, someone called you, don't you hurry over. Yang Jia said with a smile.

"This ......" Xu Ning looked at the people around him and found that all his teammates were looking at him with a lewd gaze.

"Okay, people tell you to hurry up, we will wait for you outside for 20 minutes, if you don't come back after 20 minutes, we will leave first......" Cui Lei said to Xu Ning with a smile.

"I'll go!Maizi, even you are making such a joke with me......" Xu Ning looked at Cui Maixiang speechlessly and said.

"I'm not kidding you......" Cui Maixiang said with a smile, "Okay, let's go first!"

Everyone followed Cui Maixiang and walked out, leaving Xu Ning with an embarrassed face.

"Xu Jun, I finally see you again. Oda Maki walked up to Xu Ning and said.

"Ah...... Hehe, you have ...... Hmm, what's the matter?" Xu Ning said a little awkwardly.

"There's nothing I want to ask you, are you confident in tomorrow's game? I heard that you are playing against a strong Lithuanian team. Maki Oda said.

"This ......" Xu Ning shook his head, "I'm playing the World Championships for the first time this year, so I really don't know, but I'll definitely try my best to win." ”

"Xu Jun, you must win, you must win! We will also play until the final, so that we can stay here for a few more days. Maki Oda said.

"Maki, in fact, I ......" Xu Ning didn't know what to say for a while.

"You don't have to say anything, in fact, I know in my heart that the two of us are not very likely, and you don't have to refuse, I just want to be close to you, and the reason why I learned Chinese is because of this...... , it's agreed, we all have to reach the finals and win the championship!" Oda Maki finished speaking, and hurriedly ran away.

"Hey, Maki!" Xu Ning shouted, but Maki Oda didn't come back.

Looking at Oda Maki's back, Xu Ning's heart was a little confused, he didn't know what he was really thinking in his heart now.

"Wow, you came out, I thought you weren't coming back tonight. Yu Fei said with a smile.

"You can't make this kind of joke casually, be careful that I clean you up!" Xu Ning glared at Yu Fei and said.

"Oops, hey, it's just a joke, look at your serious appearance, okay, don't talk about it!" Yu Fei said with a dirty face.

Everyone else chuckled under their breath.

"I don't say it, but why do I want to beat you up more now? Xu Ning looked at Yu Fei speechlessly and said.

"Okay, the bus is coming, let's get on the bus!" Cui Maixiang said loudly at this time.

"Okay!" everyone followed Cui Maixiang into the car.

Two seconds before the bus started, Xu Ning looked back, and he seemed to see the shadow of Oda Maki, but the dark night shrouded the side of the road, and he didn't see it clearly at all.

"Brother Xu, what are you looking at?" Yang Yujia said with a smile.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing!" Xu Ning hurriedly turned around and said.

"Hehe, do you need to ask? I said, young man, it's too late to get off now, why don't you get off at the next stop and run back. Yu Fei leaned over and said.

"Give me how far and how far I go!" Xu Ning kicked Yu Fei to Java.

At this time, at the same station just now, Oda Maki looked at the bus that had just departed, with a sad expression.

"Maki, what are you looking at?" said Miyoko Kyokagawa at this time as she looked at Maki Oda with a smile.

"No, nothing. Oda Maki hurriedly turned his head and said.

"The bus just now was pulled away by the players of the Chinese team, could it be ......" Miyoko Kyokawa looked at Maki Oda with a wicked expression.

"Really, Miyoko, don't talk nonsense!" Oda Maki said hurriedly.

"Oops, hey, I'm still blushing, if I talk nonsense, why are you blushing?" said Miyoko Kyokagawa with a smile.

"It's good or not the weather is freezing. Oda Maki glared at Miyoko Kyokawa and said.

"Oh, yes? But it's not very cold right now. ”

"Oh, you talk so much nonsense, don't talk about this topic in front of me in the future, otherwise I'm not polite to you. Maki Oda said loudly.

"Okay, okay, just kidding you, hahahaha......" Miyoko Kyokawa said.

"Don't you get bored yourself by making the same joke so many times?"

"Okay, let's not talk about it later, hehe......"

"Look at the way you look, how do you feel like you're going to talk about it in the future......" Oda Maki said in disbelief.

"The bus is coming, let's go!" at this time, Inoue Kodaichi shouted to his teammates.

"Yes!"

All the members of the Japanese team followed Koichi Inoue onto the bus.

The next day, the World Championships officially began, the first round of the game, the United States team against the Angolan team, the Angolan team used to be a strong team in Africa, often won the championship of African competitions, although in recent years by the Nigerian team, but the strength is still very strong.

However, in the face of the super-powerful American team, the Angolan team was almost powerless, and in the first half alone, the United States team's leading scoring guard Babick scored seven three-pointers in a row, and Ginterans on the inside grabbed eight offensive rebounds.

The U.S. team sealed the win in the first half, and in the end, the U.S. team defeated Angola with a huge score of 149-59 to achieve the first victory of this World Championship.

In this game, the U.S. team's Ginterance scored 15 points and 15 rebounds, and Babick scored 29 points and three assists, and these statistics were all half-time statistics, because they sat on the court almost the entire game in the second half.

The second game is the Spanish team against the Slovenian team, the Spanish team is the second seed in this tournament, the Slovenian team is the seventh team in the overall strength of the tournament, the rankings of the two teams seem to be very different, but when they actually played, the Spanish team did not take too much advantage, although the Spanish team has six stars in the European high school world, but in the face of the Slovenian team's backfield double stars Plakic and Wurikic's rapid impact, they have many times seem to be in a hurry, fortunately their star Paul Charles scored ten points at a critical moment, they only got through the danger, and in the end, the Spanish team won 99: 90 won against Slovenia.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, in the locker room of the basketball hall of the Municipal Sports Center, all the players of the Chinese team were waiting nervously, although many of them experienced a lot of vicious battles, but, I don't know why, everyone's hearts were very nervous, as if they were going to face a cruel war......
