Why do you have to be a boy and not a girl?!

Why do you have to be a high school student, but not a national elementary school student?!

The hedgehog doesn't know, can't figure it out.

Because she is not a boy, because she is not a high school student, she deserves to be left behind by Xiaozhi Nissan, and can only watch his back forward, watching him play happily on the court with his juniors, and do her best to show her youth.

I want to ...... I really want to catch up with him and go to Karano with him......

We go to school together every day, do club activities together every day, and support each other in the same camp. Occasionally look at each other and smile, you can know what the other party thinks, such an intimate and young relationship. I want to.

But it can't be done......

Because the hedgehog is a girl, because the hedgehog was born several years later than Xiaozhi. It's just a gap of so many years, but it's a gap in front of them, the only partner, the only friend who can be called a friend.

The hedgehog also wants to be a boy, he wants to be a high school student, and he wants to play in the same club as Koji Nissan!

But it can't be done......

"It's not...... Woo...... "Hedgehog's fault." The hedgehog wants to play with you, too.

The regret in Kageyama's eyes is also the hedgehog's regret.

Why can't you be a boy? Why aren't you a high school student?

What came up in my heart was grievances. An unfulfilled wish that can only be imagined in the heart. Once he thought that his closest Ernie sauce was leaving, it would be extremely difficult to meet in the future, and the hedgehog felt that the world was about to collapse, and tears poured out like a bank, blurring the qiē in front of him, and he could only see Kageyama's panicked appearance in general.

"Crying ......" the crowd of onlookers made such a voice, and a reproachful voice sounded, "Sure enough, I knew this little girl would cry." ”

Kageyama, who heard the sounds around him, felt as if he had been hit by a hammer, and his whole body shook from the top of his head to his toes with a buzz. The whole person who was flustered was ossified, and he didn't know how to comfort the person who suddenly cried behind him, while still thinking that he shouldn't have done anything to make her cry.

"Little hedgehog? You okay? Could it be that it just hit somewhere? Sugawara turned his head when he noticed the anomaly behind him. He was used to seeing the little sister next door suddenly put on a look like she was about to cry, and when she was young, whenever she wanted to do something to force her, she would always put on this face. It clearly expresses the meaning of 'grievance', 'can't do it', and 'let me go'.

Although, Sugawara also felt that it was annoying for children to cry, but when the hedgehog cried, it didn't make him feel that way. The hedgehog is very quiet, even when he cries, he will not have the sound of sobbing at all.

With tears in her eyes, she will follow your instructions and do what you want to do.

The hedgehog is really a good boy, a ...... A good boy who likes to hide his thoughts and force a smile.

"If it hurts, tell Ernie sauce." Sugawara squatted down and observed the hedgehog's expression while checking whether she had been smashed, after all, she was playing volleyball with a group of junior high school students, and she was too reluctant to be in elementary school.

Sugawara Takaji's voice made the hedgehog tremble, she wiped away her tears vigorously to make herself look less wolf, looked at Ernie chan who was squatting in front of her and lied, "Hedgehog, it's okay." Yes, it's the sand that blows into my eyes. ”

"Really? How about Ernie sauce blow it for you? Sugawara asked tentatively.

The hedgehog shook it and replied, "It's all right, tears washed it away." Sorry to scare you, right? ”

"It's a little bit, but it's nice to be okay." Sugawara made a reassuring gesture to Kageyama, who thought he had made a hedgehog cry, and he got up and touched the hedgehog's head, then turned back to his place.

The hedgehog heard it, and Kageyama, who was not far away, let out a clear cry of relief.

"I'm sorry, Oni-chan Kageyama." The hedgehog looked up at the person who suddenly froze again, and continued: "The hedgehog doesn't have that much strength, it doesn't have that height, but it ...... I can run faster and jump higher than boys my age, so please don't underestimate me just because I'm a girl. I can fight, too! I'll hit it, your toss! ”

“…… Oh, oh. Kageyama instinctively responded. He looked at the girl in front of him who had infinite vitality in her body, and her momentum seemed to be different from the shrinking appearance he saw for the first time.

Kageyama's eyes flashed back to the scene when he stayed at Sugawara's house last night and had a night talk with his seniors. Sugawara's senior said to him with pride and frustration: "Although the hedgehog looks a little timid, he is a very capable child." She's just not very confident yet. The hedgehog was always worried that I would leave her behind, but I always felt ...... I'm going to be the one who will be left behind. ’

Sugawara knows very well that the hedgehog is the different one. So, he really wants to see what the hedgehog will look like when he grows up. It must have been a very good person, so good that he could only see her on the TV, and said, "Ah, isn't this my little sister next door who has been running behind my ass since I was a child?" It's grown so big, so powerful. Make such an exclamation, and then recall those childhood memories.

At that time, he had faded out of the life of the child named 'Hedgehog'.

'Maybe I'm the one who is afraid of loneliness......

I don't want to fade out of her life, I don't want to be a corner of her memories, I want to stay with her for a while longer. And more and more hands-on teaching her how to play volleyball.

'That kid has an extraordinary talent that she didn't even know she had. ’

Sugawara once thought that if he was the hedgehog's pro-Nissan, then he could always be behind this child, guarding her, watching her grow from a little girl to a slim big girl, and then gritting his teeth for the boys who pursued his little sister.

However, he was conflicted, extremely glad that he was not her pro-Nissan. And the reason for this, even he himself does not know.

Kageyama completely misunderstood what Sugawara meant. Got such a high evaluation from Sugawara's predecessors, sure enough, is this kid very talented? On volleyball.

Kageyama, who still can't understand this, suffers from this talent that he doesn't understand in the future. At one point, he thought he was out of his mind. Of course, that's an afterthought.

Hedgehog figured out that there were not many days to play in this scene, and the opportunity to stand on the same court with Hyoji Oni-chan was gradually decreasing. Every ball game is a game for her, and it's all about giving her all. Run as hard as you can, jump as hard as you can.

After Hyojioni-chan left to go to a farther and more difficult place to meet, when she took out this memory again, she could have no regrets at all, it was enough.

The hedgehog knows that he is weak, very incompetent, very timid, and has no courage. It's simply a standard textbook that drags its feet. But...... She wanted to see him smile happily on the sun-drenched court, and she could see him say, "We won, little hedgehog." "That's enough......

"I can ......" the hedgehog encouraged herself in a low voice, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, and then opened her eyes, her whole person looked different, and her expression was a little more serious than before.

"Hedgehog, it's on."

"Hmm!"

The voices of Sugawara and the hedgehog fell, and Kageyama hit a powerful serve.

At this time, off-site.

Tetsuo Kusakabe feels that the recent chairman of the committee is a little incomprehensible, especially today's chairman.

Why do we want to cheer for the volleyball team? When has the Discipline Committee ever done something like this?! Tetsuo Kusakabe asked such a question in his heart, and he didn't dare to ask the chairman, because there was only one consequence of asking, that is, under the cold gaze of the chairman, he listened to him say coldly: "When is it your turn to ask about me." "And then I was beaten out with a crutch, a lucky fracture or something, bad luck...... I will be in the hospital for about a year and a half.

Also, how the hell did you know that they were gathered here, should you say that they really deserve to be the head of the committee?! Just as Tetsuo Kusakabe looked at several members of the Discipline Committee who came with him, he was thinking in his heart about how the chairman of the committee would change the discipline of the association. The cell phone he kept in his pocket rang, and a string of school songs came out of the vibrating phone.

Tetsuo Kusakabe is used to having his ringtone replaced by the chairman of the committee without permission, and in addition to his own mobile phone ringtone and school song, he even touches his mobile phone.

"Hey, Chairman, do you have anything to do?" Tetsuo Kusakabe, who picked up the phone, looked respectful, as if the chairman was really standing in front of him.

A somewhat cold voice came from the phone and asked, "How was the game?" ”

If you want to know so much, why don't you see it for yourself! Tetsuo Kusakabe shouted in his heart, he didn't dare to shout it directly, he would be beaten to death by the chairman. He replied very respectfully, "It's all recorded." ”

There was silence on the phone for a while, and his voice was slightly raised: "It's over." ”

"Yes." Tetsuo Kusakabe breathed a sigh of relief. The Elder Commissioner's voice sounds pleasant, so it shouldn't matter if he says something else, right?

At this time, Tetsuo Kusakabe still failed to understand the meaning of the phrase "if you don't die, you won't die."

"Chairman of the committee, please rest assured, and the Shengzhong volleyball team was pressed and beaten from the beginning, but just now the captain lined up with foreign aid Takeshi Yamamoto, and now the opponent is completely powerless."

There was a long silence on the phone of "......".

"Chairman?" Tetsuo Kusakabe called tentatively, but received no response. Could it be that he said something wrong?

Inside the field.

From the beginning of the queue of newcomers on the opposite side, the hedgehog was a little overwhelmed. The other party is taller than her, and her strength is greater than her, and her athleticism seems to be a very superior type, catching up with the hedgehog's soft smash is the same as playing, which causes a lot of pressure on the hedgehog.

Suddenly, the hedgehog, who always felt that something was wrong, trembled lightly from head to toe, as if it had been overpowered. She always had an ominous premonition, and silently moved her gaze to the sidelines, and then she saw ......

Okou O murderous brother is actually outside the court-!

The hedgehog was stunned, and the whole person was restrained because of the nervousness. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't spin around on the field, the hedgehog would have to be like a stupid dog chasing his tail, fiddling in place and trying to find a way to dig a hole.

What about Okou O?! He looks upset because I dunked the ball from their school?!

Kageyama was keenly aware of the hedgehog's abnormality, and his face instantly turned black to the bottom of the pot, and he asked, "What the hell are you nervous about!" "Obviously I was fine before, why is it that suddenly it's like I can't play volleyball, I can't jump high, and I can't keep up with the speed of the ball.

Kageyama thinks that a creature like a girl is really incomprehensible!

Off-site.

Tetsuo Kusakabe looked at the chairman of the committee who was even darker next to him under a little more pressure, obviously he won the game, why did the chairman look very unhappy?

Suspiciously, she looked at the court along the sight of the people around her, where there was a small figure clumsily chasing the ball, and then was hit in the face by the volleyball that bounced on the ground...... It hurts.

And the black gas on the chairman of the committee beside him...... It's heavier! Tetsuo Kusagibe, who felt that he had touched the truth of the matter, wisely remained silent. At this time, the chairman of the committee is the least to be provoked.

Inside the field.

The hedgehog who caught the ball with her face squatted down and shook it several times, she noticed a shadow hanging in front of her, and slowly looked up to see Hio Kageyama with a face of 'what the hell are you doing'.

"Because ......," the hedgehog trembled and pointed to a spot on the sidelines.

Kageyama looked over and saw someone holding his chest, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked down at the hedgehog and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”

“…… But, terrible. Being stared at like that......" The hedgehog was covered in sweat, and secretly glanced out of the field under the pressure of two people staring at her, and then after seeing a similar figure, he quickly withdrew his gaze and pretended that he had done nothing.

The look of being scared but still looking behind me instantly made someone happy.

"Huh~."

Tetsuo Kusakabe felt that he couldn't understand the chairman more and more, is it such a happy thing to see a little girl being hit by a ball?!

Sure enough, the chairman of the committee is a being that we mortals cannot understand......

In the end, the hedgehog was dragged by Kageyama to continue to smash the ball, even though she was afraid of the lark of the King of Harmony who was fighting on the sidelines. Kageyama, who was stronger than her, couldn't resist it, so she could only smash the ball in the front row. She always felt that if she smashed the ball too much, it would make this person unhappy.

The lark is obviously just here to cheer for a certain little girl who is not powerful. However, his efforts were misunderstood by a fool who didn't understand the world. Good intentions are distorted into something else.

Two hours later.

The hedgehog sat on a park bench and pouted, sucking on a milkshake with a rare unpleasant breath. Next to her was Kageyama, who was also sucking milkshakes and had a stinky face, but his eyes were shining, hiding some eagerness to try. His mind seemed to be imagining something, and he was about to shout "Feasible!" "It's the same.

The result of the competition, there is no doubt about it...... It was a terrible loss. Since the hedgehog and Kageyama paired a few fast attacks and scored a few points, a short black haired hearty gentleman came up in the middle row, and they lost two games in a row, completely defeated!

The action of the hedgehog's attack was completely blocked by Shuanglangjun, even the soft smash, this Shuanglangjun can catch it with his feet, it's simply not human!!

Of course, this also has the blessing of the lark who puts pressure on the hedgehog on the field from the sidelines.

"You should have pushed harder then-!" Kageyama said lessons, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he didn't deserve to lose. Why would a temporary player with strength, speed, jumping and a professional blocker still lose?!

Therefore, he felt that the problem must be the main attacker who was not strong!

Since she was still in the arena just now, the hedgehog has been told by Kageyama that she didn't work hard enough, and she felt that she was about to be wronged, "I've already worked hard, okay, I even have to poop hard!" ”

"Isn't it out yet! That's not enough force! Kageyama clenched his fist hard, overwhelmingly scaring the hedgehog with an adult's aura.

“…… Out, it's not long before it comes out......" The hedgehog shrank his shoulders in fear, and his momentum was much weaker than before.

Although the influence of the lark on the field also accounts for a large proportion, from the initial cooperation to the end, the hedgehog herself calculated an account, Kageyama Oni-chan gave her the ball ten times, she will not be able to touch the ball at least three times, and she can barely touch it twice, and she can't control the chaotic deduction of the trajectory.

It's like the screws and buckles don't match. It's not bad to look at, but it's always a little bit subtle.

Although the hedgehog has played ball for many years, she has only deducted one person's pass. However, in all these years, she has never been chasing the ball like she is today.

It was not the setter who passed the ball over, so that she could comfortably adjust the state and buckle it, but she chased the ball held up by the setter, and she was in a hurry, unable to adjust the state, and could only directly deduct it regardless of a qiē. This new model made her completely unable to adapt quickly, so that she was not able to show her strength, plus the lark Oni sauce......

Hedgehog doesn't know much about volleyball, after all, she can play but is a complete layman, but she has a feeling that if Kageyama Oni-chan continues like this, then there is a good chance that something will happen to him......

“…… Balls of Ernie sauce...... It's too hard...... "There are too few people who can catch up with that kind ......of passing speed, and most people with that explosive ability are very lacking in stamina.

Kageyama, who vaguely heard something, frowned, and he asked, "What did you say?" ”

"I'm very worried...... "The hedgehog with her head hanging down plucked up her courage, slowly looked up and peeked at the person with a puzzled face, and she said, "I ......"

"Hate you."

The hedgehog's words converged into an arrow, stabbing Kageyama Feixiong, who didn't know how to pull down his hatred at all. He remembered what he had done to make the weak little girl in front of him say such straightforward words. But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that she only said that she didn't play hard enough, right?!

Kageyama looked at the hedgehog with a nervous expression, and his movements became stiff again, as if he had been enchanted with the magic of 'turning into a mechanical idiot'.

The hedgehog smacked the milkshake cup in his hand and flattened it with both hands, as if he was treating it as if it was someone, and threw it into the garbage bin not far away, then jumped off the bench, stood face to face with Kageyama Feixiong with his hands on his waist, stared at his eyes without avoidance and said, "Occupy the attention of Xiaozhi Oni-chan!" ”

"Living with Hyojioni-chan."

"It's still the junior of Xiaozhi Oni-chan in Wuye."

"I am still in the same volleyball club with him, and I can play volleyball every day......"

"Also, blame me for not trying hard enough, obviously there are off-court reasons......"

Great evil, great evil, the second is the worst! He must have seen the soft belly of Hyozhioni sauce!

"It's been so long since you've been with the gentle and kind Ernie sauce, why can't you learn it and become a little gentle! Isn't it meaningless if you can't hit the ball! After the hedgehog finished shouting, he immediately covered his mouth with regret.

"You...... ......Kageyama frowned and stared at the hedgehog as if he was going to eat her alive.

The hedgehog's whole body trembled, and he defended: "No, no, no, you misheard Kageyama Oni-chan, and the hedgehog didn't say anything......"

"No, you did just say ......"

"Q mouth Q hedgehog didn't say anything, just sauce-!" Because he was so afraid of Kageyama's frowning expression, the hedgehog's first reaction was to smear the soles of his feet with oil.

"Wait...... Wait a minute! Kageyama tried to hold the fleeing hedgehog, but due to the wild cats standing in the way, he couldn't go all out and could only watch the hedgehog disappear around the corner of the park.

When Sugawara came back with a cone and was about to comfort the hedgehog who was in a bad mood after losing, he saw Kageyama's lonely back, "Is something wrong?" He looked around to see why he couldn't find the hedgehog, "What about the hedgehog?" ”

“…… Ran away. ”

"Huh? How did you run away?! ”

"Senior, I...... Isn't it scary? ”

"Huh?"

Sugawara, who was asked by his juniors, was stunned and said against his will: "Eh...... Not really......"

"Sugawara-senpai, can you please look me in the eye and say it again......"

“…… Yes, I'm sorry! I can't! ”

"......" finally understands that he is terrible, and Kageyama Feixiong has a sunken expression on his face.
