Kuroko's Basketball template: the king of slacking off, Shohoku's strongest sixth man.

Lingnan High School, basketball gym.

The setting sun dyed the huge French windows blood red.

The floor gleamed from the friction of the shoes, and the air was thick with the scent of male hormones.

"Defense! Move your feet!"

"Uozumi-senpai, rebound!"

Roars rose and fell.

Taoka Shigeichi stood on the sidelines with his arms crossed, his brow furrowed.

He is very confident about this year's lineup.

Two-meter-tall behemoth Jun Uozumi, and genius scorer Akira Sendoh.

This is the best opportunity for Ryonan to compete in the national tournament.

"Bang!"

The door was violently kicked open.

Everyone paused for a moment.

Aida Hikoichi rushed in and slammed onto the floor with a loud crash.

Ignoring the pain, he scrambled towards Taoka Shigeichi.

"Teach, coach!"

"Something terrible has happened!"

Yan was out of breath, and the notebook in her hand was crumpled in her hand.

"Hikoichi!"

"How many times have I told you, salute before entering the stadium!"

"And what's with all this fuss?!" Taoka Shigeichi's forehead veins bulged.

"No, Coach!"

"It's Shohoku! I'm going to Shohoku to scout!"

There was still a trace of fear in Yan Yi's eyes.

"Shobei?"

"That one-man team of Akagi? What's there to scout?"

"Besides Akagi, the only other person worth paying attention to is Rukawa Kaede from Tomioka Junior High," Taoka scoffed.

"No! It's not Rukawa Kaede!"

Yan Yi suddenly flipped open the notebook and pointed to the messy, illegible handwriting on it.

"He's a first-year international student named Lin Bei!"

"He...he instantly defeated Rukawa Kaede in a one-on-one duel!"

The words fell.

The entire stadium fell into a brief silence.

A burst of laughter immediately followed.

"Hey, Yan Yi, did you fall asleep and have a nightmare while you were doing reconnaissance?"

"Instantly defeated Rukawa Kaede? That MVP?"

"How could a rookie of this caliber possibly go to Shohoku? They would have been poached long ago, just like Sendoh."

Off-road and grass-planting were laughing so hard they were doubled over.

Even Jun Uozumi, who was as big as a small mountain, let out a muffled nasal sound: "Hmph, nonsense."

"It's true!"

"I saw it with my own eyes!"

"That speed...it was like a ghost!"

"Rukawa didn't even have time to react before the ball went in!" Yan Yi was so anxious that his face turned red and his neck bulged.

"And Lin Bei also said..."

"What did you say?" Taoka Shigeichi asked instinctively, though he didn't believe it.

"He said... playing ball was too tiring, and he only won in order to leave early."

"ha?"

Taoka Shigeichi was stunned.

What kind of ridiculous excuse is this?

This is even more outrageous than Rukawa Kaede saying it was close to home!

"Alright, Yan Yi."

Taoka waved his hand, looking impatient.

"I think you're so intimidated by the name of Rukawa Kaede that you're hallucinating."

"What kind of monsters could there be in a lousy public school like Shohoku?"

"Compared to this..."

Taoka turned around, his anger blazing as he surveyed the room. "Where's that bastard Sendoh again?!"

The entire team fell silent.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.

Just then, the door in the corner of the stadium was pushed open a crack.

A boy with spiky hair poked half his body in, holding a fishing rod in his hand.

"Ah...everyone's here."

"The sunset is beautiful today, perfect for fishing..."

After saying this, Sendoh wore his signature harmless smile.

"Immortal! Path! Manifestation!"

Taoka Shigeichi's roar nearly lifted the roof off.

"Coach, I just went to the beach to think about life's tactics." Sendoh shrank his neck, chuckled dryly, and scratched his head.

He slowly changed his shoes and walked into the arena.

As he passed by Hikoichi, Sendoh stopped and glanced at the notebook.

The painting depicts a simple little figure, with the words "Unbelievable" and "Lin Bei" written in large characters next to it.

"To instantly kill Rukawa Kaede...?"

Sendoh narrowed his eyes, a playful smile curving his lips.

"Winning in order to leave early..."

"This kind of personality sounds like we should get along very well."

He patted Yan Yi on the shoulder, "Take me to see that Lin Bei guy next time."

Yan Yi was so moved that he burst into tears: "Senior Xian Dao! Finally, someone believes me!"

……

The following day, at Shohoku High School.

The classrooms of the first-year high school students were filled with the sound of reading aloud.

The math teacher on the podium is explaining quadratic functions with great enthusiasm.

And in the last row of the classroom, by the window, is "The Hometown of the King".

Lin Bei was using the upright textbook as cover to sleep soundly.

Sunlight shone on his face, and his eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyelids.

For someone determined to slack off, class time is the best time to catch up on sleep.

"Lin Bei, classmate!"

The chalk tip, like a precisely guided missile, traced a parabola.

"Snapped!"

It hit Lin Bei's forehead precisely.

Lin Bei suddenly woke up and reflexively wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.

"arrive!"

The whole class burst into laughter.

The math teacher pushed up his glasses, a cold glint in his eyes: "Come up and solve this problem."

Lin Bei walked onto the podium, still half asleep.

Looking at the symbols on the blackboard that looked like gibberish, he yawned.

[System notification: Host is facing an academic crisis]

[Do you wish to spend 10 slacking points to exchange for a "Genius Card (1 minute)"?]

"exchange."

Lin Bei silently recited in his heart.

In order to avoid being kept after school and having their club activities taken up.

Of course, the main reason is to be lazy.

This investment is necessary.

Brush brush.

The chalk danced across the blackboard.

Thirty seconds later, Lin Bei threw away the chalk, dusted off his hands, and turned back to his seat.

Three different solutions were left on the blackboard, the last of which was even a method from advanced calculus at the university level.

The classroom was completely silent.

The math teacher gaped, his glasses slipping down to the bridge of his nose.

As Lin Bei passed the podium, he even politely asked:

"Teacher, can I go back to sleep now?"

"I haven't finished my dream yet."

……

Lunch break, on the rooftop.

Lin Bei lay in the shadow of the water tank, a straw between his teeth, drinking strawberry milk.

"Master!"

A loud roar shattered the silence.

The iron gate was kicked open, and Sakuragi Hanamichi charged in like a red gorilla.

He was holding two huge fried bread rolls in his hands.

"This is a gift to you!"

"Can you teach me the secret of instant teleportation today?"

Sakuragi handed the bread to Lin Bei with a fawning expression.

Lin Bei glanced at the bread.

Yes, the deluxe version, with double the meat.

Children can be taught.

He slowly tore open the packaging and took a bite.

"The way of flowers."

"Here." Sakuragi stood at attention.

"To learn teleportation, you must first learn 'stillness'."

Lin Bei pointed to himself, "Look at me, am I very quiet?"

"Yes... I'm very lazy," Sakuragi answered honestly.

"wrong!"

In Chinese, this is described as "still as a virgin, swift as a rabbit."

"The chakra within you... no, the basketball spirit is too restless."

"Starting today, you will practice 'meditation'."

"Just stay in one position and imagine yourself as a stone."

"If you can stay still for an hour, I'll teach you the next move," Lin Bei said, making up a lie with a straight face.

"Really?!" Sakuragi's eyes lit up.

"More real than pearls."
