44. Return

The next morning, Xiao You, who woke up early in the morning, heard Mari happily humming a song preparing breakfast for him. Looking at Mari, who was almost smiling and squinting her eyes, and didn't know why she was so happy, Xiao You didn't hold back her curiosity and asked Mari why.

"Ah~~ Am I so happy?" Hearing Xiao You's question, Mari said with a smile very unconsciously.

Well, the expression is already obvious. Although he complained in his heart, Xiao You still nodded, he was still curious about what caused Mari to be happy, could it be that he found a handsome and rich man behind his back to Guimu's father, who was far away? Ahem, Mari is definitely not such a person.

"Because, aren't I going shopping with Xiaoyou and Guima today?" Mari put her hands next to her face and closed them, with that apron, she is really a beautiful woman with a slow wife attributes, if there is no history of the former rampant clan

However, it's just going shopping with his son and son, is it worth being so happy?

Tilting his head in some confusion, Xiao You ate the last bite of breakfast and left Katsuragi's house with the active farewell of Happy Mari.

It's not the first time to walk this familiar street alone, and yesterday, Xiao You also walked alone, for the morning exercise of the women's basketball club. In such an early morning, the streets are very empty, except for the adults who are working and the students who have to play club sports like Xiao You, most of them are still asleep, after all, it is Saturday. The best example of an elementary school student's vacation is Guima, who dragged his 'tired' body to sleep after taking a shower and drying his hair last night, and still hasn't gotten up yet.

Along the way, there was no incident of hitting love on the street corner that I liked, and there was no car accident that the seed of the holy stone was launched or anything, Xiao You carried his single-strap backpack and successfully arrived at the basketball hall of Huixin Academy. After pushing the door and finding that the door was not opened, Xiao You opened the door of the arena with the key given to him by Huang Meixing.

Looking at the empty arena, Xiao You shook his head, it seemed that he had come early. Closing the door, since it was early, Xiao You, who was idle and had nothing to do, began to prepare the equipment.

After the equipment was prepared, the members of the women's basketball club had not yet arrived, so the bored Xiao You glanced at the mini basketball hoop in front of him, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and picked up a basketball and held it in his hand. Rush forward, one-handed split!

"Well, sure enough, the height of the mini basketball hoop is much lower than the official one." Xiao You, who easily completed a split button, clapped his hands, sat on the reserve seat and quietly waited for the arrival of the girls.

As the minutes ticked by, the first to come to the arena were Maho Misawa and Saki Nagatsuka.

"Huh!! Coach You! Good morning!! The blonde double ponytail who pushed open the door of the stadium with a big smile saw Xiao You who was facing her with his hands around his chest, and he was surprised and said hello to Xiao You.

"Good morning, Coach." Compared with Misawa Maho, who was a little surprised, Nagasuka Saji was very calm when he arrived, and naturally greeted Xiaoyou.

"Good morning, Misawa and Nagatsuka." Looking at the two girls, Xiao You said: "If you come, you don't have to wait for other people, you can start practicing after you change your clothes." There are only five days left until next week's game and we have to hurry. ”

"Yes!" The two women answered in unison, and quickened their pace to the locker room.

"Oh oh~~~ brother ~~ good morning ~~"

When the two girls were probably changing, the door of the stadium was opened again, and a small head emerged from behind the door.

"Good morning, Hinata." Glancing at the comer, Xiao You still said, "Okay, go change your clothes and hurry up to practice." ”

"It's ~~~" Pulling a long tail note, Hakamata Hinata trotted to the locker room.

Soon after, the best two also arrived, and in the midst of greetings, they also walked to the locker room. However, seeing the surprised looks of the four of the five girls, Xiao You also knew that he was surprised that he, who was often the last to come, suddenly became the first.

But this is also something that can't be helped, because now the coach is the only one left, and if Xiao You continues to arrive at the latest, it is likely to dampen the enthusiasm of the five girls. In order to put an end to the possibility of this incident, Xiao You had to become more positive.

But soon, Xiao You knew that he might have done useless work today, because after the five girls changed their clothes and came out, they pushed open the door of the stadium alone.

The person who came was Hasegawa Pleiades.

Looking at Hasegawa Pleiades, who was watching the five girls and himself, Xiao You just blinked his eyes, did not speak, and quietly looked at Hasegawa Pleiades to see what he was going to do here.

"I'm sorry! Everyone! Yesterday I said irresponsible things. I'm really sorry! Looking at Hasegawa Pleiades, who bowed ninety degrees towards them, the corners of Xiao You's mouth raised slightly. Although I don't know what happened to Hasegawa after yesterday's conflict, it seems that he has just woken up.

After Hasegawa said this, the eyes of the five girls all looked at Xiao You. Seeing this, Hasegawa Pleiades also walked in front of Xiao You, bowed very solemnly and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was impulsive yesterday." ”

Glancing at the five girls behind Hasegawa, seeing that the five girls were all looking at him with expectant eyes, especially Minato's nervous expression, Xiao You stood up, grabbed Hasegawa Ang's shoulders and pulled him up, and said to him, "Welcome back, head coach." ”

"Yay!!" After hearing Xiao You's words, the five girls behind him immediately cheered, especially Minato Chihua, whose eyes kept looking at Hasegawa Ang softly, and said to him: "Great, Brother Hasegawa." ”

"Hmm." And Hasegawa Pleiades also looked back at Minato Chika when he heard this, and smiled at her. Suddenly, Minato's face turned red.

"Well, there's a traitor." Looking at the interaction between the two, the corners of Xiao You's mouth showed a hint of curvature. It seems that Hasegawa Pleiades will come back so soon, and it has a lot to do with Minatochihana.

Of course, Xiao You is not such a gossip person, and after letting the fifth girl go jogging to warm up, he said to Hasegawa: "Think clearly, don't run away?" ”

Hearing this, Hasegawa shook his head and said, "Now I just want to help the five of them protect this place."

"Okay. I don't want to ask too much about you, so let's talk about the tactics for next Monday's game. ”

"Well, for next Wednesday's game, I watched all the games of the men's basketball club last night."

"Oh, it looks like you're finally getting your heart out for the women's basketball club. Is it the reason for Minato's flowers? ”

"Hmm." To Xiao You's surprise, Hasegawa Pleiades answered in the affirmative without thinking too much.

Sure enough, Hasegawa Pleiades is a lolita like his minister!! But no matter what, Hasegawa's return is a good thing for Xiao You, because it means that Xiao You can be a little lazy. At least, you don't have to come to the stadium so early, you can leave the stadium early, and push the daily training of the women's basketball club to Hasegawa or something

With this in mind, the daily training of the women's basketball club was carried out in an orderly manner. It seems that because of the return of Hasegawa Pleiades, the enthusiasm of the five women to train is higher. Sure enough, compared to Xiao You's strictness, elementary school students prefer Hasegawa, who is as kind as the big brother next door.

Regarding the preference of the five girls for Hasegawa Pleiades, Xiao You didn't say anything, after all, Xiao You only had the idea of cultivation for Lori, and there was no idea of strategy.

Falling in love or something, of course, is something that should only happen in rose-colored youth. Falling in love in elementary school is a precocious love that can't be more early.

After finishing the training, Xiao You said goodbye to everyone and set foot on the road home.

Passing by a convenience store, Xiao You was attracted by the interaction of the three people in the open space directly opposite the convenience store.

"Three, two, one!!" At the shouts of a certain Shota. The two teenagers shouted towards the ground very imposingly!!, "Ahhhh ”

Then, a red and a blue object was thrown heavily on the ground and bounced high.

"How! This elasticity! If you want to admit that you lost, the only way to do it is now!! ”

"Stop talking stupid! It's my ball high! ”

"I can't see it~~ You two are so powerful~~ The ball doesn't know where it flew~~"

And Xiao You also squinted at the things that disappeared into the air. After a while, a blue and a red thing fell towards Xiao You's position. Xiao You's eyes narrowed at the same time, and with a wave of his right hand, he grabbed the thing that fell.

The thing in the hand is a blue and a red thing - super bouncy ball.

"Huh~~Where did you fall~~" It seems that the most ** of the three people is looking around with a pergola.

"Are you looking for this?" Looking at the three people who were looking around, Xiao You said to them.

"Oh oh, this is it!! Thank you! Big brother!! As he spoke, he turned out to be the bouncy ball in Xiao You's hand, trotted to the two teenagers who were looking for him in the open space, and said happily: "Found it, Ryota~~Koji~~"

"Oh yes, let's do it again!! Be sure to see whose bouncy ball bounces higher this time! ”

"Hmph, come on! Who's afraid of whom!! ”

Listening to the conversation between the three of them, the corners of Xiao You's mouth couldn't help but show a smile. This kind of scene is like a group of them used to go crazy together.

"Super bouncy balls? I haven't played it in a long time. Thinking so, Xiao You looked at the convenience store and walked over.

"Emi, which one do you like?"

"I~~"

However, before Xiao You walked over, he saw two young girls trotting over not far away, blocking in front of him and looking at a certain product in the convenience store and starting a conversation. A girl with short hair walked slowly behind the two women, then raised her head.

Seeing this, Xiao You also raised his head curiously.

"Boom!"

Before Xiao You could react, the familiar blue and red bouncy balls fell on the heads of the two girls. Seeing this, Xiao You couldn't help but look at the three boys in the open space, and sure enough, the three of them were looking for the bouncy ball again.
