Suzuki is now a big family, in addition to the identity of a teacher in Xiangbei on the surface, he is also the chairman of a powerful financial company.

Last year, Shirai, a veteran subordinate who had followed Suzuki for more than three years, had the ambition to stand on his own, and despite his retention, he left and set up a new business in the industry. However, without Suzuki's remote command, Shirai's investments were repeatedly frustrated and he soon became heavily indebted.

Two weeks ago, Suzuki received a call from Shirai. On the phone, Shirai first yelled hysterically, but then calmed down all of a sudden, telling Suzuki all the business since his independence, and asking him what went wrong.

Shirai is an elite in the industry, and Suzuki is far inferior to him in terms of professionalism, so it is difficult to find out Shirai's specific faults. In the end, Suzuki could only answer him, "People are not as good as heaven."

The news came that Shirai had jumped off the building. Suzuki was also sad for a while, he thought that Shirai would turn back, and he was willing to accept Shirai again, but he didn't expect Shirai to finally reject his kindness and embark on the road of no return.

In retrospect, Suzuki could feel Shirai's desperation at receiving this answer at the time.

Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven.

This sentence is easy to say, but when you really do your best, and you don't have the destiny of heaven, how many people can easily come out?

August 6, 10:52 a.m.

Hiroshima Prefectural General Gymnasium.

The game had reached halftime.

The stadium was half flames and half oceans, just like the mood of the players on both teams right now.

Hidetoku's captain, Shintaro Midorima, sat quietly in a chair with his hands over his face, no matter how much Coach Nakatani tried to boost morale and explain tactics, he didn't move or say a word.

Perhaps only the sweat that keeps flowing on his body can show that his heart is not as calm as it seems.

It's miserable!

The teams that are both qualifying in their respective regions, the top four of this IH, the meeting between Xiangbei and Xiude, should have been a battle of dragons and tigers. However, the scores of these two teams after half-time cannot be said to be played by teams of the same grade in any way.

38-14！

Nearly three times the difference!

Xiangbei, who was able to score more than 100 points in each game before, suppressed the half-time score below 40 points, and on the defensive end, Xiude did quite well, even better than the mountain king who was known for his defense, but on the offensive end, they encountered big problems.

Out of 14 points, 8 points were scored by Matsumoto.

Matsumoto was the only scoring point in the first half where Hidetoku was reasonably normal.

Because of the close guard of Rukawa, Matsumoto did not have many opportunities in the first half of the field. However, through his unremitting running, he was always able to shake off Rukawa's close defense, create short empty spaces or empty cutting opportunities, and seize them.

Rukawa is not the master who has suffered losses and does not pay back, he has also come back again and again in the pine itself, although the efficiency is not as high as the opponent, but relying on the overall strength of the team, the score is a double.

Compared with Matsumoto, Hidetoku's other striker, sophomore Yuuki, performed much worse.

Yuki has more chances than Matsumoto, but his score is only half that of Matsumoto, and the reason is that not only Hotta, who is good at interior defense, is opposite him, but even the center Akagi is always taking care of him.

Yuuki had four blocks in the first half, three of which were covered by Akagi on a hook layup after his back shook over Hotta.

Akagi's foot movement was much more flexible than that of Jun Uomi, another of the three Kanagawa center forwards that Yuuki had just met in the last game, and it was so flexible that Yuki had a psychological shadow and did not dare to hook his hands with his back for the rest of the first half.

Among the three major center forwards in Kanagawa, Yuzumi has a good defense and many flower-shaped offensive methods.

Although Akagi is slightly inferior to Uozumi in defense under the basket, and he is not as good as Hanagata in terms of accuracy in mid-range shooting, but when it comes to Kanagawa's chief center, people only think of Akagi!

Because Akagi has no shortcomings!

Rebounding, blocking, blocking, tacking, back-to-back singles, face-frame half-volleys, hooks, dunks, and free throws, Akagi can basically handle these techniques. Whether in the high post or in the low post, Akagi can always play the role of the offensive core. One person can't prevent him from scoring, and two or three people can't prevent him from assisting. When defending, Akagi can play the role of the last line of defense under the Xiangbei basket, which can be described as a one-man affair.

Compared with Ziyuan, who crushed the whole country back then, the current Akagi technology, consciousness and experience are all similar, only talented.

Yuuki's offense is dominated by the basket, and when he met Akagi, he can be said to have encountered a natural enemy, not only was his own shot always covered, but even the pass was cut off by Akagi twice.

Matsumoto had eight points, Yuuki had four points, and Hidetoku had the remaining two points, which were scored by point guard Takao at the end of the first half.

It was a goal that fully embodied Takao's character.

The green room fired a cannon from the outside, but it didn't go in, the ball bounced far away, and several inside linemen of the two teams were out of reach and could only watch dryly.

The basketball falls between the sand barn and the flowing river.

Rukawa's height is much taller than Matsumoto next to him, and the ball lands closer to him, so he will take the ball, so Shakura didn't move.

However, at this moment, Takao suddenly activated, bypassed Shakura's body, rushed towards Rukawa, and snatched the ball away before Rukawa.

After taking the ball, Takao did not immediately rush inside, but first made a move to the ball behind Rukawa, so that Rukawa was afraid of Matsumoto, stopped his steps, and then turned around with a pull ball, let go of the back of the sand can, and then another crotch changed hands, so that the sand cang pounced in the wrong direction again, and finally started again, hit near the free throw line, and before Hotta came over, jumped and shot.

Takao's goal was the last goal Hidetoku scored in the first half.

Center Makami is originally a blue-collar worker, basically will not have the right to fire, and it is normal not to score.

However, the team's ace, Hidetoku's top scorer, captain Midorima also did not score a point in the first half, which was very surprising.

Even Suzuki, who arranged Sakuragi to defend Midorima, never dared to think that Sakuragi would complete this task so well. Unexpectedly, Sakuragi was able to completely lock Midorima and let him eat duck eggs!

Sakuragi has a different view on this.

After getting off the field, in the face of Mizuno and Inoue's praise, he took the game data and said to everyone with a cold face: "It's not that I defended well, but Midorima was in too bad shape in today's game!" Midorima had no small number of shots, 2, 4, 6, 7, and he got a full 9 shots. I only lost 1 of them, I rubbed a little on the other 2 occasions, and he actually beat me the remaining 6 times! None of these 6 goals were scored, on the one hand, his form was too poor, and on the other hand, his luck was too bad! It was Akagi's complete control of the rebounds that ensured our big lead. I didn't have to rotate in the second half! If he gets his hands right, it's going to be difficult! ”
