Time flies, three years in a flash, and the time comes to April of 93. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At the door of the sixth class of the third year of the prefectural Xiangbei High School in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, a tall and handsome boy of nearly two meters followed the head teacher, Mr. Abe, and walked into the classroom.

Today is the first day of the new school year, and Akagi Tsuyoshi and Ki Yuko came to the classroom early.

Last school year, the Xiangbei basketball team, led by Tsuyoshi Akagi, Totoshi Mitsui and Ryota Miyagi, performed well.

In the summer national high school league, Xiangbei participated in the national competition as the runner-up in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The Xiangbei basketball team, which debuted on the national stage, became the biggest dark horse in the competition. Xiangbei, which has overcome the waves all the way, successfully met with the Hainan team in the top four.

However, in the semi-finals against the defending champion Sanno Industry, the defects of Xiangbei's lack of heritage were completely exposed. Facing the No. 1 mountain king in the country, the Xiangbei team suffered a heavy defeat and lost 43 points at the end of the game.

In the battle for the third and fourth places, Xiangbei defeated Hainan by one point and won the third place in the national competition, blinding everyone.

Autumn National Sports, because it is the county competition champion Hainan team on behalf of Kanagawa Prefecture, so there is nothing to do with Xiangbei, the runner-up of the county competition.

(Inoue Okami mentioned the Aki no Kuni in "Ten Days Later", Coach Takatou said, "What about allowing mixed teams this year?") ”。 In other words, before the plot year, mixed teams are not allowed to participate, and only the Hainan team, the champion of the county competition, is eligible to participate. ）

In the final winter trials, due to the strong teams in Hainan, Xiangyang, Buri and other counties, they all encountered the problem of the collective retirement of the main force of the third grade to varying degrees, so that the Xiangbei team with the second-year players Akagi Goken and Mitsui Shou as the core took the opportunity to win the championship of Kanagawa Prefecture, and once again entered the national competition and reached the semi-finals, but still lost the semi-finals. In the battle for the third and fourth places, Xiangbei once again competed with Hainan in the same county, and Hainan, which lost the main player of the third grade, was defeated by Xiangbei again and won the fourth place.

Due to their extraordinary height, Akagi Gangxian and Mu Du Gongyan sat in the last row of the class, and the two of them, as the captain and vice captain of the Xiangbei basketball team, were chatting about the basketball team at this time. At this time, the head teacher, Mr. Abe, led a tall and handsome young man in.

Looking at the whole class, Mr. Abe, the head teacher, introduced the tall and handsome boy around him, Ryumasa Oda, an exchange student from Oak Hill High School in Virginia, USA.

It's Ryuzheng!!

Akagi Goken and Kiki Konobu stared at the young man in front of them with wide eyes, and the surprise in their hearts quickly enveloped their entire bodies.

"Long Zheng, are you sitting?"

The head teacher, Mr. Abe, looked down and looked at Ryumasa's huge body. Mr. Abe was amazed by this height, as if he was not shorter than Akagi-san, who was 197 centimeters.

"You can sit next to Akagi-san. Akagi-san is the captain of the school basketball team! Teacher Abe smiled slightly and said softly.

"Okay, Abe-sensei." Glancing at Akagi Goken and Kiki Konobu, Ryumasa walked to the back of the classroom.

...........................................................................................................................

In Japanese high schools, afternoon classes are held only at 3 o'clock, and after 3 o'clock is club time.

After class, Ryumasa went to the basketball hall with Akagi Goken and Ki Dui Gongyan.

"Long Zheng, isn't Oak Hill High School participating in the Virginia Basketball Tournament, why did you come to Xiangbei as an exchange student? Is it to see Haruko? Speaking of this, Akagi Goken's tone was extremely strange.

In the three years since he went to the United States, Ryuzheng has maintained frequent telephone exchanges with Haruko, and the relationship has been formalized.

Every year during the winter and summer vacations, Ryumasa returns to Japan or invites Sakuragi Hanamichi, Mitsui Totoshi and the Akagi family to visit the United States. After frequent exchanges, the relationship between Long Zheng and everyone was not unfamiliar.

As Haruko's lover, Ryumasa will tell Haruko all about his experiences. Through Haruko's mouth, Akagi Tsuyoshi and Kiki Konobu also know Ryumasa's main experience after he went to the United States.

On July 25, 1990, Long Zheng followed the national youth team to Rome, the capital of Italy. The national youth team has a game task, but Long Zheng, who was expelled from the national youth team, has nothing to do, and under the recommendation of Steve Smith and William, Long Zheng met Kobe.

The 12-year-old Kobe Bryant is not as powerful as Long Zheng at that time, Long Zheng strengthens his body through the deepest energy in his body, whether it is physical fitness or basketball skills, he has exploded Kobe.

The basketball exchange between the two peers became the unilateral guidance of Long Zheng. In the deepest part of Kobe's heart, the tall figure of this peer is deeply impressed.

After meeting Kobe, Long Zheng, Steve Smith and William did not stay in Italy for long. The trio flew and soon came to the United States to recruit for the Oak Hill basketball team.
