One night is enough time for Rukawa Kaede, who is strong in his heart, to get out of the shadow of failure.

But Rukawa Kaede has no way to accept his weak self, and he has an inexplicable sense of urgency for the improvement of his strength......

Following.

When training in Xiangbei, Rukawa Kaede had already returned to his usual appearance, although he was still silent, but he was active and active on the training ground.

Even during the break in training, Rukawa Kaede did not suspend training like the rest of the team, even if Mitsui Shou persuaded him several times, it was useless.

Seeing that his persuasion was useless to Rukawa Kaede, Mitsui Shou was very afraid that Rukawa Kaede, who was training like this, would practice himself in trouble, so he couldn't help but find Jinguji Martial Arts, hoping that Martial Arts could persuade him, in Mitsui Shou's opinion, Rukawa Kaede would become like this, all of which were made by martial arts.

"He's going to have problems training like that."

"There's nothing wrong with training hard, but if you get injured, it's more than worth the loss."

"Martial arts, you have to let Rukawa Kaede have a reasonable amount of rest! You go and persuade him? ”

During the break, Mitsui Shou stood beside the martial arts of Jinguji Temple, looked at Rukawa Kaede who was running back and forth in the field, and said worriedly.

"Persuade? If he had listened to persuasion, he would not be in this state today. ”

"Such a guy can't be persuaded to enter!"

"Mitsui, let's find a way to arrange an external training match."

"Seek some external stimulation, and through the competition, let Rukawa Kaede build up confidence."

"I can probably understand his thoughts, after yesterday's practice match, this kid Rukawa Kaede should be eager to improve his strength."

"It's inevitable that a young player at this age will have this mentality."

"The more victorious people are, the less likely they are to accept their weakness."

"Now his mind should be full of thinking about how to defeat me."

"All the external stimuli so that he doesn't always focus on me."

Martial Arts did not go over to persuade Rukawa Kaede according to Mitsui Shou's thoughts, what should be said, it was already said yesterday, and Rukawa Kaede has also come out of the shadow of failure, which is enough. As for Rukawa Kaede's current state, although it is not expected by Martial Dao, it is not an difficult thing to solve.

"Little San, let's make an appointment with Lingnan High School and see if they are interested in playing a practice match."

"When the time comes, let this kid Rukawa Kaede have some time to perform."

Takemichi patted Mitsui Shou on the shoulder and gave his own advice.

Mitsui Shou touched his chin when he heard this, and after thinking for a long time, he nodded silently.

Their Xiangbei High School Basketball Club is already the top team in the country, and looking at the entire Kanagawa Prefecture, there are only a few high schools that are qualified to play with their Xiangbei.

Lingnan High School is located on the coast of Xiangnan, which is very close to their Xiangbei, and at the same time, Lingnan is also the double champion of last year's IH and WC Cup, which is very suitable as an opponent for the practice match.

At the same time, taking advantage of the opportunity of the practice match, they Xiangbei can also know in advance what level Lingnan High School has reached.

After a brief conversation with Martial Arts, Mitsui Shou went to Coach Anzai to see if Coach Anzai could make the corresponding arrangements.

However, it wasn't until Mitsui Shou found Coach Anzai that Mitsui Shou didn't know that Coach Anzai actually received an invitation to Lingnan High School and Coach Taoka's practice match this morning, and Coach Anzai also readily agreed.

Lingnan High School is actually in a similar situation to their Xiangbei, Lingnan, who has won two consecutive national championships, has no opponents in the county, and Xiangbei High School can barely become their opponent in the Lingnan practice match.

And the main reason why Coach Taoka asked Xiangbei to play a practice match so soon was that Coach Taoka also knew the news of Jinguji Martial Arts returning from the United States!

As for why they were able to receive the news so quickly, it had something to do with a first-year freshman in their Lingnan....

"The practice match with Lingnan High School is scheduled for next week 5, go to their school to play."

"Mitsui, let's let me know when the training is over, and tell the players that those who perform well in training this week will get the opportunity to play in the practice match."

Coach Anzai told Mitsui the news of the training match, and then set his eyes on Rukawa Kaede, who was training in the field, and did not look away for a long time.

After the break, all the players went back to training on the pitch.

Coach Anzai divided all the players into groups, and the three teams with the worst foundation were arranged in the playground, led by Mu Dugongyan, for some basic training, while the main selection and the players of the second team stayed in the stadium for training. Most of today's training subjects are physical exercises.

After a holiday, many players are slacking off, and Coach Anzay plans to use a lot of physical training to get the players into the state quickly.

Physical training is boring and boring, but it is one of the indispensable training items for all players.

And time passes little by little in this tedious and boring training.

In the evening, Mitsui Shou announced his disbandment after announcing the relevant matters related to the training match with Lingnan.

The players dragged their tired bodies and left the arena one after another, but Rukawa Kaede had no intention of leaving, sitting on the sidelines and resting, and after the players were almost gone, he was almost rested, and walked into the court with a basketball, practicing layups, projections, etc.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the windows, illuminating the interior in a dim light

The floating warm glow swayed with the light swing of the curtains.

Rukawa Kaede bathed in the sunset, repeating layups and projections again and again.

...

"Tear la...."

I don't know how long later, but the closed door of the basketball hall was suddenly opened, and an exclamation came from the door:

"Wow! Is this the basketball hall of Xiangbei High School? In the evening, the light is so good, much better than the stadium of our Lingnan High School! ”

Rukawa Kaede heard a sound coming from the door, and after completing a shot, he turned his head to look at the door of the arena as he walked towards the basket.

It was a fresh face.

Aida Hiko was holding a notebook in one hand, wearing a black placket, and was looking at the stadium of Xiangbei High School with a curious face. Soon, Hikoichi Aida noticed Rukawa Kaede in the middle of the court, and the two looked at each other.

“ohhh！

You are the captain of Takeshi Middle School, Rukawa Kaede! ”

"You actually joined Xiangbei High School?!"

Hikoichi Aida seemed to recognize Rukawa Kaede, and the moment he saw Rukawa Kaede, he immediately pointed at Rukawa Kaede and exclaimed, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Rukawa Kaede looked at Aida Hikoichi silently and didn't say anything, but his eyes were on Aida Hikoichi's body, and he didn't know the guy in front of him.

"Oh!"

"I forgot to introduce myself."

"Hello, Rukawa Kaede-san, I'm a first-year at Lingnan High School, Hikoichi Aida, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

As he spoke, Hikoto Aida stretched out his hand and walked towards Rukawa Kaede, looking like he was going to shake hands with Rukawa Kaede. But when he came to Rukawa Kaede, Rukawa Kaede glanced at the other party vigorously, holding the ball in one hand and hanging at his side with the other, without the intention of shaking hands with Aida.

"Hah.... Ha ha! ”

"The players in Xiangbei are really good!"

"I came to Xiangbei for nothing else, just to come and see."

When Aida Hiko saw Rukawa Kaede's appearance, he snorted, and then awkwardly withdrew his hand and changed the topic. When Rukawa Kaede heard the other party say this, he completely lost interest in Hikoichi Aida, turned to face the basket, and continued his training.

"Is Xiangbei's training over today?"

"The training is over, and Rukawa Kaede is still practicing in the gym, which is really hard! He is worthy of being a player from Haoqiang Wushi Middle School, and I want to learn from him! ”

Hikoichi Aida didn't disturb Rukawa Kaede's training, and stood silently on the sidelines, thinking so in his heart, while observing Rukawa Kaede's training.

There was an extra "audience" in the basketball court, and Rukawa Kaede's training status was not affected, and the two of them didn't speak, one person practiced, one person watched, and Aida Hikoichi also took out a small notebook from time to time to write something down on it.

Of course, his actions attracted the attention of Rukawa Kaede, and after a projection, Rukawa Kaede suddenly asked:

"What are you remembering?"

Rukawa Kaede's cold question made Aida Hikoichi, who was writing, couldn't help but tremble his hands, and then looked up at Rukawa Kaede and replied cautiously:

“ohh...”

"It's not a big deal, it's just a count of the percentage of shots you just shot."

Hikoichi Aida said with a little embarrassment, and silently closed the notebook as he spoke.

Rukawa Kaede only nodded slightly when he heard this, and then devoted himself to his training.

Aida Hikoichi gently saw that Rukawa Kaede didn't mean to delve into it, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then opened the small book in his hand.

In Aida's notebook, a simple basketball half court is drawn, and on this half of the paper there are small black dots pointed out with a pen, more on the right side of the court, less on the left, more in the middle distance, and less on the inside.

This is the map of the early point of Rukawa Kaede's projection practice, and at the bottom of this page, there are also statistics of Rukawa Kaede's shooting, and the data of the three-point shot and the mid-range and the position under the basket are written separately.

Aida Hiko's efforts to watch the ball for a while, in this way, recorded Rukawa Kaede's training.

"Xiangbei High School was the top eight team of IH last year, and the winter competition last year also created a lot of trouble for our Lingnan High School."

"Now the star players of Wushi Middle School have actually joined Xiangbei High School, and in the future competition, they will definitely become one of the most threatening opponents in our Lingnan!"

"I'm going to have to keep a good record of it! When the time comes, it will be handed over to the Immortal Dao seniors and the seniors of the four palaces. ”

Aida Hikochi was thinking in his heart, while recording it in the notebook, and he didn't notice it at all, a red-haired figure, I don't know when he was already standing behind him, and at this time he was poking his head out from behind Aida Hikochi, and looked curiously at the notebook in Aida's hand.

Just as Hikoichi Aida wrote in his notebook: "Star player, Rukawa Kaede." At the time of this sentence, Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was standing behind him, suddenly said:

"Star player? Just this stinky fox? ”

"He's not even a regular selection, what kind of star player is he!"

"Hey, boy, don't write nonsense!"

"Speaking of which, who are you?! I don't remember you being the number one on the team, huh? ”

The sudden appearance of Sakuragi Hanamichi frightened Aida Hikochi, his body trembled, he quickly closed the notebook, and then slowly turned his head to look.

However, what caught my eye was a blue training uniform.

Aida Hikochi looked slightly stunned, slowly raised his head, looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi's face, felt the height of Sakuragi Hanamichi, and couldn't help but sigh in his mouth: "Okay...... It's so high! ”

Soon, as soon as Aida came back to his senses, he immediately bowed to Sakuragi and continued:

"Hug hug hug...... I'm sorry! ”

"This senior, I am the first year of Lingnan High School, Hikoichi Aida, and I came to visit Xiangbei."

"I often hear the seniors in the school say that the basketball department of Xiangbei High School has the best strength in the country, so I came here to see it."

As soon as Hiko Aida looked at the height of Sakuragi Hanamichi, he subconsciously thought that Sakuragi Hanamichi was a member of the senior class in Xiangbei, and greeted him politely.

"Lingnan?!"

"People from Lingnan High School, come to visit us in Xiangbei?"

“emmmmmm...”

Sakuragi Hanamichi said this, and groaned, just when Aida Hikoichi thought that his purpose of "probing the military situation" was to be seen through by Sakuragi Hanamichi, Sakuragi Hanamichi suddenly laughed.

"Hahaha!"

"You Lingnan boy, you are very knowledgeable! Hahaha! ”

"We are Xiangbei, but we want to dominate the country! Very valuable to visit, hahahaha! ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi smiled and patted Aida Hikoichi on the shoulder, looking very happy. Aida Hiko, who was still a little nervous, was also stunned when he saw Sakuragi's appearance, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed with hahaha.

Rukawa Kaede, who was in the field, heard the conversation between Sakuragi Hanamichi and Aida Hikochi, and also turned his head to glance at Sakuragi Hanamichi and continued his training.

And after laughing a few times with Sakuragi, Hikochi Aida suddenly remembered something and asked, "Senior, you just said.... Rukawa Feng is not the right choice in Xiangbei? ”

"What's going on, I know the strength of Rukawa Kaede, with his fame and strength in the country, in Xiangbei High School, even if he can't be a starter and become a substitute, there should be no problem in entering the main selection, right?"

"Or is it .... The strength of Xiangbei is so strong that even Liuchuan Feng has been screened out of the main selection team? ”

Aida Hikoichi was keenly aware of the point of Sakuragi's words just now, and immediately asked curiously.

Rukawa Kaede didn't even become a regular player in Xiangbei High School? This is a major discovery!

"Senior or something, Hikochi!"

"My name is Sakuragi Hanamichi, the first grade of Xiangbei is selected, and the future Xiangbei ace! You have to remember it too! ”

"As for that fox, hahaha, he didn't make it to the main selection, he was on the second team!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi hugged the shoulders of Aida Hikochi, laughed, and while introducing himself, he didn't forget to step on Rukawa Kaede.

"Bell~"

As soon as the words fell, Rukawa Kaede missed the shot, and the basketball smashed on the edge of the basket, making a soft sound.

And Rukawa Kaede didn't pick up the ball for a while, turned his head to look at Sakuragi Hanamichi, and said:

"Idiot!"

"Come to the bullfight!"

Rukawa Kaede has endured Sakuragi Hanamichi for a long time, and this kid is still revealing his scars in front of outsiders, and finally can't bear it anymore for a while, and said directly to Sakuragi.

"Humph! Come on! ”

Sakuragi Hanamichi was not at all hesitant to face the challenge of Rukawa Kaede, let go of the shoulders of Hikochi Aida next to him, and walked towards the middle of the court.

In the year that these two have been training together in Xiangbei High School, they don't know how many times they have fought bullfighting, and the rookie's Sakuragi Hanamichi is certainly not the opponent of Rukawa Kaede, but with the accumulation of Sakuragi Hanamichi experience and the improvement of basketball level, his defensive ability has become quite strong.

Fighting with Rukawa Kaede, although Sakuragi Hanamichi does not take advantage of the offensive end, it is not easy for Rukawa Kaede to take advantage of him in front of him.

And Sakuragi Hanamichi has always thought highly of himself, Rukawa Kaede, has always been his goal to chase challenges.

Rukawa Kaede's invitation to bullfight,It's just what he wants.,It's been more than a month since the last bullfight between the two.,Sakuragi thinks that he's grown again.,Intend to verify it on Rukawa Kaede.。

Aida Hikoichi suddenly heard that Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi Hanamichi were going to fight bulls, and his eyes lit up immediately, and he silently retreated behind Sakuragi Hanamichi, looking at Sakuragi and Rukawa Kaede with an excited face.

"Bullfighting! These two are going to fight bulls! ”

"The star player of the junior high school era, Rukawa Kaede, and this future star of Xiangbei, the duel between these two must be very exciting!"

"I'm going to write it down, I'm going to write it down!

”
