Chapter Twenty-Nine: The sun is coming
It wasn't until there were 5 minutes left in the second half that Suzuki put Aoki, who was too suffocating to jump up and down, to enjoy it. Prior to this, Taiga and others had taken turns to play to maintain their hand after assuring Suzuki that they would no longer play in places with poor court conditions.
Needless to say, the result of the game is self-explanatory, Xiangbei is closed to the end, the score is not broken 100, the opposite side of the horse personal score is more than 30, but the score of the whole team is added together, not half of Xiangbei, which shows the huge gap in the strength of the two teams.
However, when the game ended, although it was a fiasco, Odakiri's players all walked off the basketball court with smiles on their faces. They proved to Suzuki with their practical actions that even if their strength is not good, their enthusiasm for basketball is not inferior to others. Everyone fought until the end of the game, and they were full of energy until the last minute.
When he said goodbye, Suzuki sighed: "If Ma Jun is still in the second grade, maybe I will invite you to transfer to Xiangbei!" ”
Arima showed a strange expression that made Suzuki a little puzzled, and then said, "Thank you Superintendent Suzuki for your appreciation." But I won't go to Xiangbei, I can't bear my brothers! With that, he turned away in style.
Taiga whispered in Suzuki's ear, "Mr. Yukimura invited him last year, and he refused to do the same. ”
Suzuki said "It's a pity" and said no more.
Because it was sunset, there was no one in the school cafeteria and commissary, and there was no take-out order in those days, most people brought bento boxes or bread, and Abe, Mizuhashi, and Kuroda's house were all very close, and when I went back to eat, only Aoki was missing. Although his home is not far away, his parents are very busy, working overtime in the company, and he is given money to find a place to mix two meals by himself.
Suzuki didn't prepare any food, but was going out to eat, so he took Aoki and went to eat ramen together.
Due to its proximity to Yokohama, the ramen in Fujisawa City is quite traditional, and most shops don't use soy sauce, which Suzuki doesn't like, so Suzuki often goes to the noodle restaurant for a tooth festival even though he knows a little bit about cooking.
Suzuki picked a place, and naturally even Aoki's share of noodles was invited. As the saying goes, half the size of the child, eat the poor. Aoki's appetite was no worse than that of Sakuragi Hanamichi, another big stomach king known to Suzuki, and the oversized bowl of noodles directly wiped out two bowls of soup.
Aoki, who was still unsatisfied, wanted to call another bowl, but Suzuki stopped him, not because he felt sorry for this bit of noodle money, but that there was a game in the afternoon, and Aoki didn't dare to send him on the field if he didn't know how to eat it, in case there was a gastroenteritis or something like that, it would be troublesome.
When I returned to Xiangbei, it was still early, but for everyone who stayed to drink cold water and nibble on the lunch, lunch had already passed, and several people were already playing on the basketball court.
Suzuki looked left and right, and there were obviously several more people, and walked up to Momoi and asked, "Why are they back again?" ”
The people Suzuki was referring to were Arima and others from the Odakiri basketball team, who had just played a game in the morning.
Momoi was sharing the cherries he had brought from home with Abe and Imai, and when he heard Suzuki's question, he turned his head to look at the court and said, "They're here to watch the afternoon game." Mr. Suzuki, do you want to eat? ”
Suzuki picked up a cherry from Momoi's open lunch box, removed the stem, put it in his mouth and chewed it, then spit out the kernel and threw it into the garbage bag, and continued, "It's quite sweet, where did you buy it?" I don't think I have seen it on the market yet! ”
Momoi opened his mouth and spit out a tangled fruit stalk, and said like a treasure, "Cherries should be eaten like this." ”
Suzuki laughed and said, "I can't learn this." ”
Momoi replied to Suzuki's question at this time, "This was sent by a relative of mine who lives in Kagoshima, where the weather is warmer and the cherries ripen early. ”
Suzuki nodded, indicating that he understood, and found a chair to rest, unconsciously sleepy and his eyelids drooped.
"Superintendent, Superintendent, Mr. Suzuki!" In the haze, Suzuki felt that someone was pushing him, opened his eyes, saw Momoi's pretty face, and asked in a daze, "Momoi, it's you, what's the matter?" ”
Momoi replied, "Sir, the Sunshine basketball team has arrived at the door. ”
"Under the sun? Sunset! Suzuki got up in a panic and almost knocked Momoi over, but fortunately he reached out and pulled Momoi's body to stabilize him, and then said "sorry" to her, straightened his clothes and collar, and turned to the door to greet him.
After talking with Yusuke Kimura, the coach of the sunset, and the main general Kunihiro Nakamura, the people of Xiangbei introduced the sunshine basketball team to the stadium.
The players are all very tall, and when the two sides communicated, Nakamura expressed a strong belief in winning.
But Dahe did not respond. Unfortunately, the top four team Lingnan, control the situation and suppress the top eight team Sunrise West, these two warm-up games made everyone very optimistic about the strength of Xiangbei this year, whether it can enter the final stage of the county competition, it only depends on whether it can cross the Buri pass.
The provocation of the day, Dahe has not yet been put in his eyes.
In this game, in view of the height of the opponent, Suzuki's lineup is center Miyagawa, big forward Maki, small forward Yoshino, scoring guard Imai, point guard Okawa Such a lineup, except for Imai, the other four are also more than 1.8 meters tall.
The person in charge of blowing the penalty in this game was Oda Kiri's captain Arima, who used the captain's authority to take over the power of the whistle and drove everyone else from Oda Kiri's to the second floor to watch the game.
Arima raised his wrist to the table below, blew the whistle when the time pointed to 1:30, and tossed the basketball high.
Miyagawa and the center of the sun, No. 15, the two big men of the Central Plains, flew and jumped.
Nakahara was obviously one step faster, grabbed in front of Miyagawa, and gave the racket to his point guard No. 8 Kuwajima.
However, at the same time, the whistle blew and Arima said: "BLU No. 15, jump ball violation, RED team throw-in!" ”
Coach Kimura opened his throat and yelled, "Bastard! How many times have I told you, don't jump too early! How do you always forget! ”
Nakahara reflexively, turned around and ran to the sidelines, bowed 90 degrees to Kimura and said, "I'm sorry!" ”
Kimura was even more angry: "You go back with me to compete!" ”
Maki sneered and said, "This stupid big guy! ”
Nakahara turned to him and said, "Huh? You call me? ”
Nakamura dragged Nakahara back and scolded: "Don't be ashamed! ”
Nakahara stooped down again and said sorry.
Not only Maki, but Yoshino and Imai laughed a little.
Gong He turned around, pointed to his head, and whispered with a solemn expression: "Don't take the enemy lightly, he may have some problems here, but his physical fitness is great, the reaction and speed just now, I have only seen it in Ziyuan Tsudu!" ”
