"Tsukishima!"

The blonde boy looked up at the high ball, took two steps back, and then ran and jumped, stretching his arms to reach the ball.

The blocking net on the opposite side also started at the same time, and the next second was a surprise.

How high is it?

I saw that the height of the fingertips of the two was visibly different by some distance with the naked eye. Therefore, in the face of this defense with an open goal, Hotaru Tsukishima easily dunked the ball.

"Good smash." Ryo Hoshino, who passed the ball, came over. He knew that the other party didn't like high-fives, so he just patted the boy on the shoulder in celebration. Just then, there was a familiar commotion at the door.

The two looked at each other.

"Excuse me." A group of people at the door walked in under the leadership of Coach Anahara, and when they looked closely, they were all members of Shiratorizawa's second and third grades.

Ryo Hoshino's eyes lit up.

Ushijima Wakari is always at the forefront. As soon as he walked in, he saw two people standing together not far away. Silver hair is conspicuous, as is blonde hair. His gaze paused on the young man's hand resting on the other man's shoulder, and then he looked away, bowing slightly towards the silver-haired young man who greeted him.

"Because of Shiratorizawa's Saito-sensei...... Not feeling well, the coaching staff decided to hold a group practice match today. ”

"What happened to Saito-sensei?" Ryo Hoshino asked suspiciously.

"It's like eating oysters spoils your stomach." Taichi Kawanishi, who was taking off his coat, replied.

Ryo Hoshino: "......, it's reasonable." But—

"It's all on the pitch today." Last time the sophomores didn't come.

"Hmph, that's right! Ryo, wait to be defeated by us! "Tian Tong Jue, who had changed his clothes, came over.

Hoshino Ryo raised his eyebrows: "That's not necessarily. ”

Today is the 5th day of the training camp, 5 days is enough time for them to familiarize themselves with some of the opponent's playing habits, plus the extra practice every night, this time they played the game, and they actually had the feeling of some teammates.

"I'm coming!!"

The moment Huang Jinchuan raised his hand, two people in the team ran out, crossed positions and jumped back and forth.

"Ho!" Hayato Yamagata rushed over and caught the smash.

After landing on the ground, Ryo Hoshino and Yutaro Kaneda immediately stared at Kenjiro Hakubu's movements on the opposite side, and then ran to the side in tacit understanding.

“ONETOUCH！”

"Blackstone, return to defense!"

Maybe it's because on the last day, all the first-year players are working hard, and the results are much better than the last practice match. The two coaches standing next to him saw this scene and nodded secretly.

The practice matches were carried out in an orderly manner and continued until the evening. The end of the game means that this training camp has come to an end.

"I'm going to miss you!" The 192cm setter held one on the left and one and said reluctantly.

"Okay, it's not that we can't see each other."

"But I'm still reluctant!"

"Hinata, Tsukishima." Hoshino Ryo stopped two people in black uniforms, and when he saw them turn around, he smiled and said, "Come on, Harutaka." I'll watch your game. ”

"That's right! If you don't play well, I'll beat you up the next time we meet! ”

Hotaru Tsukishima

"Huh? ”

Not far away, Coach Anabara looked at the group of teenagers and said with a smile: "It seems that they are getting along very well, and they are reluctant to separate." It's just that there is no feast in the world. ”

"Come out to play on vacation!"

"Good! That's it! ”

The teenagers finally said goodbye and took a different path. But no matter what the road ahead, one day, they will meet in the same place.

- The future.

*

Little by little, the sun covers the earth and awakens the sleeping city. On the road, in addition to sleepy-eyed office workers, there are also people who get up in the morning to exercise.

"Ah Gong's straight ball, Huh - the deduction is getting better and better, yesterday he actually forced a limit ball under the double block!" Hoshino ran as he snorted and walked as he talked about what had happened during the previous day's training. Ushijima Worri next to him listened quietly, occasionally answering a few words.

So saying, they turned a corner and came to a flat road. It didn't take long to run, and when they saw a familiar hanging ornament, the two stopped tacitly.

"Huh? Here you go again! The old man inside laughed when he saw them, "What do you want to eat today?" ”

Hoshino Ryoshi responded with a smile: "Mother-in-law early! Let me see...... I'd like to try onigiri today. After speaking, he looked at the person next to him inquiringly, and when he saw the other party's jaw, he turned his head to look at the old man, and his smile was even brighter, "I want two!" ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled and nodded and walked in.

She is the only one in this breakfast place. When chatting two days ago, I heard from the other party that she used to be with her husband, but recently her husband was sick and recuperating at home, so she was the only one left to be busy. The rice balls were freshly kneaded, and the two of them stood aside and waited as before.

Counting the chance encounter that day, this is the seventh day of their morning run together. Originally, it was just an appointment for one day, but the two met at the school gate again that day. After that, although it was not explicitly stated, they would all come to the door at that time, and one day Ryo Hoshino got up late, and when he ran to the door, he found Ushijima Wakari waiting for him there.

However, Ushijima only said that he was at school this week, and today should be his last day.

Inexplicably, Ryo Hoshino felt a little frustrated in his heart, but after reacting, he immediately shook his head again.

No, no, no, he used to run by himself, what's there to be frustrated about?? Originally, the captain just happened to be free, so they trained together.

He was so immersed in the tangle that he didn't notice that the person next to him had been watching him for a long time.

"The rice ball is ready~"

"Okay!" Hoshino Ryo came back to his senses, and just wanted to take out the money, a hand directly passed over him and handed the money over.

"Captain, you paid yesterday too!" Hoshino was in a hurry and grabbed his arm directly, "Didn't you say I came today?" ”

Ushijima Ruoli was silent for a moment: "...... Next time. ”

“？ You said the same thing the day before yesterday! ”

Ushijima didn't say anything, but he didn't withdraw his hand.

The store manager watched their movements and said with a smile, "Ah-la-la, you guys have a really good relationship~"

The two were at a stalemate for a while, seeing that there were new guests coming next to him, in order not to hinder the business of others, he could only let go of his hand and muttered, "I said that I will do it next time......"

Ushijima Wakari just took the rice balls handed by the manager

, silently handing him one. Ryo Hoshino, who took the rice balls, thanked the store manager, and then smiled at him: "Let's go!" Hurry back to eat balls! ”()

"Captain, I'm going this way." Ryo Hoshino pointed in the direction of □□ Nursery, turned around and walked two

step, suddenly turned back again, and said with a somewhat tangled face, "That, captain, ...... tomorrow"

Ushijima Wakari still stood in place, as if he knew what he was going to ask, and replied directly: "I'm going to Tokyo this afternoon, and I'm going to stay there for a while." ”

Ryo Hoshino immediately nodded: "Oh, oh." "Sure enough, it's not at school......

"Well, I heard that the captain is participating in the university's special recruitment?"

"Hmm."

"Come on!" Ryo Hoshino clenched his fist and waved, "It's difficult, but I'm sure the captain can do it!" ”

"Hmm." Ushijima nodded in response as always.

Ryo Hoshino was a little short of words for a while. He touched the back of his head and said dryly, "Then, then I'll go." ”

"You-" The boy spoke suddenly.

"Huh?" Hoshino Ryo turned his head a little puzzled, but saw that the other party was just looking at him silently, and his brown green eyes had a look that he couldn't understand.

After a long time, Ushijima Ruoli finally spoke: "...... It's okay, let's go training. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left first. Ryo Hoshino stood in place, looking at his back in a bit of a daze.

What......

Why does the captain seem to be a little depressed?

*

After the training camp, Ryo Hoshino returned to his previous life. Attend classes, train, and prepare for the upcoming final exams.

"I always feel like I only had a midterm exam yesterday, and I have a final exam tomorrow......" Hanhe Jiang Yong lay on the table with a dazed expression.

"It's okay, it's going to be winter vacation at the end of next week."

"That's right! Winter vacation! When it came to the holiday, Hanhejiang briefly branched out for a while, and then took a break from cooking, "It would be nice if you could go on vacation directly after the exam, but you still have to take classes for a few more days......"

"Wake up, even if you don't have class, you're going to come back to train." Ryo Hoshino ruthlessly shattered his illusions.

Xiao Cuntou snorted dissatisfied, saw that he was writing the question, and asked again: "Hoshino, you have won a sports scholarship this semester, are you still going to rush for a scholarship at the end of the semester?" ”

"Of course." It would be a fool not to earn money.

"Okay, then wait until you get the scholarship and invite me to drink Coke!"

“…… I treat you to a mallet :)"

Shiratorizawa's final exams are four days in total, and after two days this week, the remaining subjects will be taken on Monday and Tuesday next year. In the past few days of the final exam, the training of the volleyball team has been suspended. So, all weekend, Ryo Hoshino stayed in the dormitory and studied hard. Two days passed in a flash, and on Monday, he walked into the examination room with a brain full of knowledge, and it was a burst of wild writing.

1 subject, 2 subjects......

When the bell rings, which symbolizes the end of the last exam, the whole school comes alive from that solemn atmosphere.

"Finally the exam is over!!" Hanhe Jiang Yong threw down his pen and stood up excitedly: "Hoshino, Gong!" Walk! Let's play ball! ”

() The other two looked at each other: "Go." ”

I didn't play for almost a week, and I played in the dark as soon as I did.

Ryo Hoshino pushed open the door of the dormitory, and Aoki Mori, who had just come out of the bathroom, asked with a smile, "It's closed again?" ”

"yes, I'm sweating, I'll take a shower first."

The weather was cold, and when he came out of the shower, Aoki Mori was already wrapped in a quilt in bed reading comics, and Ryo Hoshino also climbed into the quilt after doing his own thing.

"Final exams are over, are you going for a morning run tomorrow?"

He thought for a moment, "Go ahead." "It's been a few days and it's time to continue training.

"Oh yes, Hoshino, Ushijima-sen, they seem to be back, I saw them today."

Ryo Hoshino first let out a surprised "um", and then reacted: "Captain, they're going to come back for the exam too." ”

"yes. So do you think they'll come to the club tomorrow? ”

"I don't know."

The captain is back. Ryo Hoshino grabbed his phone, and for some reason he thought of the scene from the previous separation, so he subconsciously opened Line and clicked on the chat interface with Ushijima Wakari.

The last message is still the last time the other party sent an emoji.

Ryo Hoshino stared at the cat that popped out again and again to scatter flowers, hesitated for a long time, and finally retreated.

*

At six o'clock in the morning, Ryo Hoshino walked out of the dormitory building. Although he could have run later, he was used to the time.

A cold wind hit, and he pulled his collar and walked towards the school gate.

It was still dark, and the street lights on the school road were still on. A few of them may be older, and the light already looks faint.

Ryo Hoshino has a slight night blindness, which takes a long time to get used to the darkness, and in this relatively dark environment, he can't see much in the distance. He never carries a mobile phone when he goes out for a morning run, so he can only walk carefully.

However, he remembered that there was a very bright light at the school gate, and after leaving the school, the brightness of those street lights was relatively sufficient, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to see the road clearly.

He squinted as he walked in the cold wind, his eyes lit up when he saw the bright white light in the distance.

Just a corner in front of you is the school gate.

He quickened his pace, and after turning right, the scenery at the school gate was clearly reflected in his eyes, but he was suddenly stunned.

I saw a man standing under the bright street lamp.

Although it was a little far away, he recognized it at a glance.

He walked faster and faster, faster and faster, and in the end, he even ran.

And the boy who was standing there seemed to sense something, and looked this way, and he saw a cloud of silver running towards him in the darkness, like a star shining in the night sky.

Finally, the star fell in front of him, raised his eyes, and smiled in surprise: "Captain! ”

Ushijima Ruoli looked at those sparkling eyes, and then looked at his open neckline because of running, and said calmly: "It's cold, pull up your clothes." ”

Hoshino let out a cool sigh, pulled it casually, and couldn't wait to ask, "Captain, why are you here?" ”

"I'm here for a morning jog."

Hearing this, Ryo Hoshino grinned: "I heard that you are back, I originally wanted to ask you if you want to run together last night, but I didn't expect us to have such a tacit understanding!" ”

"Hmm." Ushijima Ruoli answered, reached out to help him pull the neckline that was still a little messy, and said softly:

"Then why don't you ask?"

"Huh?" Hoshino Ryoshi was stunned for a moment, and said with some hesitation, "Because I'm worried about disturbing you......"

"No, it won't."

"Huh?"

"It won't bother."

Ushijima looked at himself reflected in the amber color and said, "So if there's anything you want to ask next time, just ask." ”！
