"Hey! Li Xin, are you up yet? ”

"Who?"

"You snere! Of course it's me! Zhuo Yifan, I'm in the phone hall downstairs of your house! Hurry up and get up, if you don't hurry, the field will be robbed by others. ”

"Oh! Got it! ”

"You're limited to five minutes!"

As soon as he hung up the phone and turned around, Li Xin was already standing straight in front of Zhuo, with a look of relief on her face, which really scared Zhuo at a loss: "Big brother! You're the Flash! ”

"Didn't you say faster? I'm a little bit faster! Li Xin made a gesture of placing her thumb and index finger in front of her eyes and snapping them into a small section.

"Huh!? Okay, get on the bike, I'll ride you over! ”

The stadium where Zhuo and Li Xin often go is about a ten-minute drive away from Li Xin's house, even though there are only these distances, Zhuo is impatient to speed up the train, kick the legs and kick the legs again: "Quick!" Fast! Fast! Fast! Fast! Fast! Fast...

…”

Passers-by saw Zhuo's car far away and retreated, the car drove by and raised gusts of wind and sand, Li Xin, who had not fully woken up, sat in the back seat and was speeding by Zhuo's wind, people fell east for a while, crooked west for a while, shaking like a wave drum, but did not complain.

When they arrived at the stadium, the venue was indeed occupied, and the two of them couldn't help but be a little disappointed: "It's all you lazy worm, sleep until the sun basks your butt, now it's okay, there's nowhere to play, the semifinals are about to start, I don't want to lose the first game, I'm ready to avenge the sword on the Nike thunder!" ”

"That's not right!"

"What's wrong?"

"The backs of the people on the pitch are so familiar!"

"Huh!?" Li Xin said that Zhuo Fang noticed that the players in one of the four courts were very familiar, and when she looked at it, it turned out to be the generals of the Siyuan basketball team, and the two couldn't help but be overjoyed.

When I looked up at the watch, it was just after seven o'clock, and Siyuan's team members were already playing hotly on the field. This made the two later people only itch in their hearts.

"Senior Yang, add me and add me!" Zhuo Laoyuan jumped up and waved to Yang Jinglong, who was watching the game on the sidelines.

On the field, it was Han Chongyu, Chen Xiaoyin and Yu Yueyin who were playing a three-on-three bullfighting match, and if you took a closer look, their opponents were Zhu Yunting, Chen Chuanhao and Qin Shanhai of Xinli Secondary School, who had just lost to Siyuan in the semi-finals in Area B a few days ago.

"Why don't they ...... too," Li Xin and Zhuo were both surprised.

"Strange, isn't it? Look over there! Yang Jinglong pointed to the opposite field, aren't the familiar figures on the field Xia Jun, Chi Shengwei, and Peng Chenzhi facing the seniors who have graduated, Li Tianfang, Zhang Jinfeng and Ling Junxiao?

"Ahh They're here too......" Zhuo's open mouth was almost closed. "One last look at your back!" Yang Jinglong patted Zhuo's shoulder again, the opponents faced by first-year newcomers Huang Zesi, Xu Zhiqing, and Jiang Haotian were actually Zhou Junyi, assistant coach Tian Jianzhong, and the "little white" Jay Lun who appeared in the Wanti Hall.

"Why are they all here, it's a big party!"

"Our goal is to play in the national league!" The corners of Yang Jinglong's mouth rose upward.

In the early morning, there was such a lively scene on the pitch, with the young players showing great energy and the players spontaneously preparing for the upcoming semi-finals. If the coach of the team, Li Xiaolong, and the director of physical education and research, Mr. Zhao, knew it, they must be secretly glad to have these players who sincerely love basketball.

"Shengwei, hurry up, don't copy it, I'm going to be late for training, I'll borrow you when the game is over!"

"Okay, I'll be right away! Wait a minute! ”

Ji Shengwei, who hurriedly packed his schoolbag, left the classroom and went straight to the gymnasium with Xia Jun. As soon as the two entered the gymnasium on the front foot, the back foot coaches Li Xiaolong and Tian Jianzhong also arrived. The two secretly rejoiced that they had finally arrived before the coach and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bang-!" Li Xiaolong slammed the door shut, and the speed of his movements was somewhat unexpected by the players, and suddenly a serious atmosphere filled the gymnasium.

"You know what day tomorrow is, right?"

Li Xiaolong's voice is strong and powerful, giving people a majestic shock, which is completely different from his usual times.

"Today is the final preparation! Tomorrow is the opening game of the semi-finals, and our opponents are very strong, so strong that a well-trained college team is far from their opponents, but the strong man - Whaley is only the first game of our long journey this year. Only by crossing Whaley can we be qualified to challenge Nanyang, the king of the king, who has a group of talented players. ”

"I fully believe in our teammates, in my eyes, we Siyuan is stronger", "So ......" Li Xiaolong put his right hand on the frame of his glasses.

"Tomorrow's battle is only allowed to be won and not defeated!"

"It's a one-on-one duel today to decide tomorrow's starting line-up and remember that only the best can survive on the pitch." Li Xiaolong's eloquent demeanor was deeply reflected in the hearts of every Siyuan basketball player.

Fang Wenxin followed Coach Li's instructions, and the twelve players drew lots according to their respective positions on the field.

As a result, Zhuo Yifan's opponent was Chen Xiaoyin; Yang Jinglong faced Yu Yueyin; and Xia Jun are facing newcomer Jiang Haotian; Chi Shengwei and Peng Chenzhi also drew newcomers Huang Zesi and Xu Zhiqing, who were relatively easy to deal with; And the most eye-catching thing is the showdown between Li Xin and Han Chongyu again.

After a fierce battle, Zhuo Yifan, Yang Jinglong, Xia Jun, Chi Shengwei, and Peng Chenzhi all defeated their respective opponents and qualified to play first tomorrow.

Only the last spot remains, the starting point guard, is it Li Xin, who has improved rapidly in the past few months, or Han Chongyu, a super guard who has emerged since his freshman year of high school?

"Okay, the last group of confrontations, Li Xin is ready to start against Han Chongyu!" Li Xiaolong gave an order.

"Wait a minute!"

"Huh?! What's the matter, Li Xin? ”

"Coach Lee, I, I want to ...... Competing with Han Chongyu alone, can you all avoid it? ”

The usually introverted son showed a rare resolute look in his eyes at this time, and Li Xiaolong couldn't help refusing, and responded: "Okay! ”

"All the players, coaches, and management personnel are waiting outside the gymnasium!"

"Don't you think it's weird?" Sitting outside the gymnasium, Zhuo asked about Xia Jun puzzled.

"What?"

"Why did Li Xin compete with Han Chongyu alone? With his kind of character, in fact, even if he loses to Brother Chongyu, it is a normal thing! ”

"Don't look at Li Xin's character, in fact, he is a person with strong self-esteem and competitiveness, but he never wants to show it on the surface!"

"What? I don't believe it! ”

"Maybe it's for some kind of agreement! People of his kind of character, just silently put their efforts on action, recall, although we entered the school team earlier than Li Xin since the beginning of high school, and acted as the main force or important substitute in the team, and Li Xin only entered the school team in the second year, the starting point itself is later than us, and there is an absolute trump card in the team, Li Xin can't play the main force no matter what, all he can do is work hard, work hard, and strive to one day be able to really rely on his own strength to become the main force of the team, Instead of the day Brother Chong Yu graduated, or for some other reason, he became the main force. ”

"He doesn't want others to say behind his back, look, this kid has become the main force, is it because his father is the coach of the team? Or is it because Han Chongyu graduated and there is no one in the team that Li Xin became the main force! He didn't want to be the main force in this way because no talent had his turn, and he was more eager to get the main position by winning the duel in the end. ”

"He's an introvert, when he practices, he can lose, he can tolerate the other party, but when it comes to the critical moment, when it comes to deciding his own fate and the fate of the team, he is no longer willing to keep his patience, and then his aggressive nature is highlighted. He was reluctant to let others see his failures. ”

"That's why he chose to fight Han Chongyu alone?"

"Hmm!"

Lan Meng's ears were filled with the squeak of sneakers rubbing against the teak floor in the stadium; The deflating sound of basketball encountering the hoop, the expectant sound of brushing off the rebound, the exciting sound of the net, and the natural shouts and gasps of teenagers in sports. All these sounds form all kinds of fighting pictures in different people's minds, meditating on what can happen inside, and the teenagers enjoy this sound comfortably, for them it is a kind of calm and calm, that is, they do not need to put themselves in the shoes of their teammates too much, and they cannot stay out of everything that has nothing to do with them.

This state lasted until it was broken by the rumble of opening the door of the gymnasium, and the lights in the gymnasium illuminated the pitch-black field outside the gymnasium, Han Chongyu wiped his left and right cheeks with the towel around his neck, and disappeared into the black realm alone. The others didn't even have time to ask, "What was the result?" ”

Entering the gymnasium, I saw Li Xin sitting on the floor alone, looking dazed and tired, looking straight up at the ceiling of the gymnasium, and patting him on the shoulder: "Lost?" ”

Li Xin nodded.

"How much did you lose?"

Li Xin made a gesture to snap her thumb and index finger into a small piece.

"A little?"

Li Xin nodded again.

The new journey of the Siyuan school team is about to begin, and the teenager Li Xin missed the opportunity to play the main role.
