Kuroko: I had already won the championship before the miracle happened.

"After the game, even someone as cheerful as him became distressed, which was rare."

"Because of that clearly visible distance..."

He had just seen the black name clearly.

And myself...

But it has been clear for a long time.

From the moment I stepped onto the same playing field with Shigure, the distance between us was so close, but it seemed like a chasm, an encounter with a monster.

Everyone except Nijimura looked like mortals who had accidentally stumbled into a monster feast.

This moment.

Shigure Akito keenly noticed the change in the other person's mood.

Combined with what Fukaya Reiji said before, it is not difficult to guess the reason for this change in mood.

Junior high school student.

It's really sensitive.

If I were to shatter a young player's confidence because of me, that would be a heinous crime. Damn it, without realizing it, I had quietly found myself in a similar situation to the 'Generation of Miracles'?

Shigure Akito is really not good at comforting people. Today, when he was trying to calm his friend down, he chose a 1v1 fight and simply beat the other person up. It was simple and rough.

Of course, that is only based on knowing each other well enough.

If he were to do this to Reiji Fukaya, a person he didn't know very well, he would be really afraid that this sensitive type would be defeated.

but……

That seems to tie things together.

The communication between Fukaya Reiji and Nijimura Shuzo probably had the same purpose as the 1v1 between himself and Shinji.

Shigure Akito: "..."

Although I don’t know why.

However, Nijimura is a very nice guy. He is very patient in communicating with Reiji Fukaya.

Shigure Akito is gradually becoming unsure of how Nijimura Shuzo's character has progressed compared to when he first appeared in the comics.

At this time.

Shigure Akito, who was not very good at comforting others, naturally chose to change the subject.

"As for distance and such, it's too early for us now, isn't it?"

"Don't get caught up in what's in front of you..."

"In this world, there is absolutely no one who has never experienced failure and pursuit. Just remember to strive to reach higher."

"Anyway... who knows what today's loser will become tomorrow?"

"Have confidence, the future will have infinite possibilities~"

It is said that he is not very good at comforting people.

But when Shi Yu Qiu Ren looked at the young man in front of him, he couldn't help but say a lot more.

At last.

After I have exhausted all that I can say.

I'm out of words.

Only then did he stiffly return to the topic.

"Well, by the way, who's stronger, me or Nijimura? Choose one, Reiji~"

Fukaya Reiji raised his head and looked at Shigure Akito with burning eyes.

After a moment's silence...

"From what we can see right now, Shigure-san is the best scorer, but as for the team's ace..."

"I'll choose Nijimura-san."

Shigure Akito: "..."

It’s all in vain to comfort you!

You are so fair and just!

Fukaya-san!

Chapter 030: If you can do it, I can consider your starting position~!

In April, Akito Shigure and Shuzo Nijimura joined the Teikou basketball team, joined the first team on the same day, and about two weeks later, received their respective starting jerseys.

The highest competition for junior high school basketball, the National Junior High School Basketball Conference, commonly known as the "Quanzhong", will start in August every year.

of course.

This start time refers to the teams that make it to the national level.

Earlier, each region had to conduct a "full-scale" regional selection, and only the teams that won the regional qualifiers could step onto the national stage at the end of this summer.

The scale of this preliminary competition is much larger than the 24 schools that only entered the national competition, and it takes a relatively long time.

Starting from July, the competition schedule has been going on for nearly a month.

and so……

From April to July.

This can be seen from this tense time.

How difficult it is for a first-year student to be selected as a regular in such a short time, surpassing the second- and third-year students, and participate in a formal competition like the "All-China Championship".

but……

Shigure Akito is obviously not among them.

From the time I entered the club to the time I got the selected numbers, nearly a month had passed quietly, although I had not yet reached the stage of "hitting all the numbers".

But Shigure Akito himself knew very well that he would not miss the 'All-China' competition.

The same goes for that Nijimura guy...

The basis for this judgment is that the frequency with which he and Nijimura represented Teiko in foreign battles has increased significantly recently, and most of the time they have led the team alone.

While leading the team alone, I was also assigned tasks by the coach.

Difficulty...

They try to create difficulty even when there is no difficulty, and it is getting more and more outrageous.

For example at this moment...

Shigure Akito sat on the bench.

Looking at the "amazing score" scored by the Diguang Second Army, the whole person was in a state of dismay.

Teiko vs Xingrong.

The third quarter is now over, and Teiko is surprisingly trailing by 27 points at Xingrong Middle School's home court.

With such a huge score difference, this game seems to have no suspense. It seems that it is only a matter of time before Xingrong Middle School wins against Teiko in the new school year.

In the training gym of Xingrong Middle School, everyone was cheering for this easy victory. In sharp contrast to the spectators watching in the gym was the puzzled expression of the coach of Xingrong Middle School.

"wrong……"

"This is so wrong."

"That's the Platinum Coach who single-handedly built the foundation of the wealthy imperial family. He's here today to personally coach. It shouldn't be just like this..."

"The key is……"

"What's up with that strange first-team starter who's been sitting on the bench? According to Teiko's custom, he should have come up to help out a long time ago..."

"To Teiko, whose 'victory is everything', he won't let victory go easily, even if it's just a training match."

"otherwise……"

"Why send the regular players along with the team?"

The coach of Xingrong Middle School was quite worried at this time.

Before the All-China qualifiers, winning against the powerful Teiko, even if they were only second place, was a great morale booster for them. After all, it was a big victory where they led by 27 points after three quarters and almost defeated their opponent.

This at least proves that after nearly a year of hard training, this year's Xingrong Middle School is far stronger than Teiko's second team. Judging from this leading advantage, Teiko's starting lineup... is not impossible to challenge.

but……

Teiko's coach, Kozo Platinum, was present in person at the training match.

In addition, the fact that the opponent's regular players were sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai made the coach of Xingrong Middle School feel quite uneasy.

And on the other side.

Teiko bench.

After leaving the court, all the players of Teiko Second Army were silent. With a 27-point difference and only one quarter left, it was difficult to catch up.

Two third-year main players of the second team sat on the bench, breathing heavily, their bodies trembling slightly, their eyes a little red, and their expressions gradually became empty.

they know……

It was a complete disaster in front of the basketball team's general manager.

Before they all passed the exam, their dreams of joining the army were shattered, and several people were filled with resentment.

Any idea of ​​joining the first team with this opportunity has become a delusion. If he loses the next game, according to Teiko's style, he will be lucky if he is not sent to the third team.

aside.

Shigure Akito glanced at him.

No acquaintances.

So he was not in the mood to cheer them up or anything like that.

Because he had already vaguely guessed that the old man Bai Jingengzao came here in person today just to increase his strength.

And the facts.

As expected...

After the third quarter break.

In this game, Shigure Akito's desire to play was completely ignored, and Shirogane Kozo didn't even glance at him, and suddenly turned his head.

His gaze was fixed directly on Shigure Akito, who was at the head of the bench.

"Shigure..."

"now you."

"Although we're a bit behind, but..."

"If you can do that, I can consider you for the starting position~"

Upon hearing these words, Shi Yu Qiuren jumped up from the bench, and blood instantly rushed to his head. It was not because the starting position was so tempting, but because there was such an item in the tasks actively released by the current system.
