Chapter 188 Shura Field 6
"So, Sana, are you completely well now?"
"Yes, May, I don't feel any pain anymore and will be discharged from the hospital in a few days."
"Great! Woo…"
In Kurikawa Sana's hospital room, the girls sat beside her bed and shed tears. They were precious friends she met during her journey to conquer the game.
Momoi Satsuki, Shirafuku Yukie, Suwada Kaoru, Shimizu Kiyoko... and Ms. Sato, her agent when she debuted as an artist in the second round, have all learned the truth and all the ins and outs. Everyone's face is filled with heartache, emotion and relief.
"No wonder A-Da and Akashi-kun suddenly looked so weak a while ago..." Tao Jing Satsuki reacted and murmured, "It turns out they had their bone marrow extracted... No wonder even someone as tall and strong as Zi-kun looked pale for a while."
"And the same goes for Kuroo and Akaashi." said Bai Fukuyuki.
Kaoru Suwada raised her head, a look of relief on her face. "I'm so touched. Bokuto has really matured. He has grown up in every sense of the word."
Kiyoko Shimizu: "Our students from Karasuno are also great. Hinata, Kageyama, and Tsukishima-kun provide three times the strength, second only to the four people from Inarizaki High School."
Ms. Sato: “………………”
Wow, they can compete in this area, worthy of being the managers of the ball clubs of various schools, all charging hard for their own players.
It's a pity that the players from other schools don't have female managers, don't you think? Otokoma and Aoba Johsai, Sakuhaya-kun and Ushijima-kun, and the ones who play tennis.
But when she thought of their unhesitating dedication, even the knowledgeable Ms. Sato couldn't help but sigh deeply and stand in awe in her heart.
"Those young men were truly brave," Ms. Sato said. "Although I'm only an amateur in this area, I've heard about the side effects of bone marrow extraction. They all love sports, and many of them are already world-class professional players... yet they still did it without hesitation."
How serious are the side effects and aftereffects of bone marrow aspiration? They're simply too numerous to count—severe pain and limited mobility at the puncture site, anemia, fatigue, dizziness, nerve and muscle pain, endocrine dysfunction...all of which are the symptoms that professional athletes most fear, yet they still do it.
No matter how big the side effects are, they are determined to save her without hesitation.
Hearing Ms. Sato's sigh, Kurikawa Sana felt tears welling up in her eyes again.
"Yeah... they are all very good." The black-haired girl lowered her head and said softly.
She has become particularly sentimental recently, and would be moved to tears when she thinks of everyone.
Many people gave their all for her without hesitation, including many she would never have dared to think about, such as Hanamiya Makoto, Haizaki Shogo, and Akutsu Jin.
The people responsible for contacting and organizing them were Akashi Seijuro and Atobe Keigo. They selectively skipped over her conflicts and disorders in the timeline, concealed the existence of the system and alien creatures, and only told the other party that there was such a latest advanced medical technology, and that she could be saved by donating some blood and stem cells... and they agreed.
Hanamiya Makoto, Haizaki Shogo, and Akutsu Jin agreed without even listening to the whole thing. Their expressions were almost like stubborn madness, the ecstasy of finally seeing the dawn of hope after wandering in pain for a long time.
Akashi Seijuro was not surprised at all that Haizaki Shogo would agree, but according to Akashi, he didn't pay much attention to the fact that the "bad boy" Hanamiya Makoto, who was known for his ruthlessness and evil style of play from another school, was actually secretly in love with her in a corner where no one knew about it.
Akashi Seijuro and Atobe Keigo continued their usual explanation of the side effects and dangers of stem cell donation, as well as its ethical feasibility. Even hot-tempered people like Haizaki Shogo and Akutsu Jin grimaced as they listened, and finally growled in a low voice, "Stop talking nonsense! Take me to get the pump! I want to save her!!"
At that time, when Akashi and Atobe recounted the entire story in detail, Kurikawa Sana was stunned for a long, long time. She never thought that someone she thought she would never have any contact with again would be willing to go to such lengths for her.
Even the system didn't expect this. The best proof is that Hanamiya Makoto and Haizaki Shogo are not even among the conquerable targets.
But they are still willing to save her and sacrifice for her.
The boys who used to be irritable and immature in their school days have also quietly undergone a huge transformation.
Kurikawa Sana was also surprised to find that Kuroo Tetsuro, Iwaizumi Ichi, Oshitari Yuushi, and Niou Masaharu had also joined in saving her, enduring the same pain. Kurikawa Sana was both stunned and flattered when she found out, as none of them had completed the strategy, yet they still agreed.
Just when she was shocked, Kuroo-kun smiled and told her that he did this to help his friend Lami so that Lami would no longer be sad. In addition, he also wanted to contribute his own strength, so he just followed his heart.
Iwaizumi-kun gently touched her head and said that he had also agreed to the request of the bastard Oikawa, so she didn't need to feel guilty or burdened about it.
As for Oshitari-kun and Niou-kun, they both looked at her for a long time, smiled and said the same thing.
They all said that they didn't want to have any regrets.
Everyone is really, really nice people.
…
Thinking back to the present moment, Kurikawa Sana raised her head with a smile, tears in her eyes, "I will cherish this second chance at life that everyone has given me."
"That's good, Sana." Ms. Sato hugged her lovingly and asked, "So, Sana, what are your plans next? Do you plan to continue your acting career?"
Kurikawa Sana paused and thought for a moment.
After the timelines merged, all the events merged. After waking up and checking online and social media news, she discovered that the media had uncovered the story of the girl who risked her life to save people during the Nagano earthquake. She was the same person as the idol artist Sana, and her praise had reached an all-time high.
It is generally believed that she bravely rescued people in an earthquake and miraculously survived in junior high school, debuted as an artist in her senior year of high school, and unfortunately encountered an accident while filming a movie. She has been in a coma and has not woken up since then. She is like a white moonlight.
"I've made up my mind," Kurikawa Sana said. "I want to finish my studies first and make plans later."
Ms. Sato smiled and said, "Okay, I support all your decisions."
…
*
At the same time, in the playground near the hospital, the teenagers finished their rehabilitation training for the day and sat down on the rest benches, panting.
Each of them is tall and has long legs, just like they were posed for a fashion photoshoot. Just sitting there gives off a strong sense of oppression, provided they don't speak.
"I miss Sana so much..." Gong You looked up at the sky, his thick eyebrows and big eyes losing focus, "I haven't spoken to Sana for ten hours and five minutes. I'm almost exhausted..."
"It can't be helped." Miyaji shrugged. "Today is a girls' day. We should leave the time for chatting and being alone with Sana to the girls."
"Happy Girls' Day!" Koutarou's eyes lit up. "My two managers said they would speak up for us. Shirafuku and Kakuta will definitely praise me and Akaashi!"
Akaashi Kyoji smiled helplessly, "We are just like everyone else, we did what we should do and stood at the same starting line, Kuroo-senpai."
Koutarou: "Never mind, I just love to hear people praise me!"
Upon hearing this, Miya Yu, the setter who was already in the same professional team as Koutarou Koutarou, fell into a deep silence: "..."
Back then, during the summer training, he had complained that Akaashi Kyoji was a rare nanny-style setter, and he absolutely could not imagine how disastrous it would be if he were on the same team with a player like Kyoto.
Unexpectedly, time passed by and he was actually on the Black Wolf team with Kuroo, struggling every day between "whether to score" and "whether to coax Kuroo".
Miya Yuu couldn't help but look for help to Hinata Shoyo, who had just returned from Brazil after a hard day of beach volleyball training. In addition to donating stem cells for Sana, another reason for Hinata Shoyo's return was that he had also received an invitation from the Black Wolves and might join the same team as him and Kurosabu Sakuhaya.
"Hahaha, now that you mention it, Shimizu-senpai will probably praise us too." Hinata Shoyo smiled innocently and raised his hand to touch the back of his head. His biceps were muscular, and his skin had been tanned by the Brazilian sun to a healthy tan, even with a hint of wildness. It was completely different from his handsome image in high school. "Don't you agree, Kageyama, Tsukishima?"
Kageyama Tobio said "hmm", and Tsukishima Hotaru also raised his hand and gently supported his glasses without denying it.
"That's great! Other schools have managers who speak for them." Gong You's eyes became even more confused. "I also want someone to speak up for me. Where's our school's manager?!"
Inarizaki's captain, Kita Shinsuke: "..."
Kakuna Rintaro: "...isn't the manager of our school Sana herself?"
Miyaji: “…”
Gong You was also dumbfounded, "Oh, that's right!"
Miyaji: "...Stupid Yu, don't ever tell anyone outside that you are my twin brother."
Atobe Keigo crossed his arms and asked the quiet, black-haired young man next to him, who seemed to be the smarter of the volleyball players, "Has this guy always been so abstract?"
Sakuhaya Seiomi: "...Yes."
"Which school is that girl with long pink hair the manager of?" Oikawa Toru touched his chin and asked in confusion, "I don't think there's such a manager in the volleyball powerhouse school that Sana knows."
"That's our manager, Momoi Satsuki, the basketball player," Midorima Shintaro replied.
Hearing him speak, Sakuhaya Seiomi's gaze suddenly shot towards the other person. His green hair and emerald green eyes were too conspicuous.
"Midorima, speaking of which, thanks to you providing information about Hanamiya Makoto, Sana now has another helper." Akashi Seijuro said.
"It's nothing, just a little help." Midorima Shintaro also adjusted his glasses, which attracted the attention of Tsukishima Hotaru and Tezuka Kunimitsu, who also often adjusted their glasses.
Sakuhaya Seiomi who heard Midorima Shintaro's name: "………………"
The case is solved, Midorima, it was indeed him.
When Sana had a high fever and was unconscious, she once hugged him and called out this name - "Midorima".
But think about it, this guy's hair is so green, green from head to toe, who else in the room could be Midorima besides him? There's no need for any reasoning.
Judging from the reactions of these basketball guys these days, their final ending with Sana doesn't seem to be a very pleasant one. They all feel a strong sense of guilt towards Sana, and they all believe that they will not be easily forgiven.
But now, it seems that Midorima-kun is the only exception among them.
The reason why Sana unconsciously called out the name "Midorima" in that situation was most likely because the other party had taken care of her in the same situation, causing her to develop a sense of dependence on the other party that she was not even aware of.
Sakuhaya Seiomi narrowed his eyes dangerously.
He would never tell Midorima-kun that Sana called out this guy's name when she was unconscious due to a high fever.
Sana herself didn't know that she had ever called out the name "Midorima", which means that even she herself did not realize that this Midorima-kun occupied a certain place in her heart.
Therefore, as long as Sakuhaya Seiomi doesn't say it, neither Sana nor Midorima-kun will ever know this.
Sakuhaya Seiomi pulled up his mask darkly, his dark eyes deep and gloomy.
On the other side, Keigo Atobe's complaints also caused dissatisfaction on the other side.
"Speaking of which, I've always wanted to ask, who are you guys?" Gong You snorted softly, raised his chin and said, "I'm the top setter in the country, the most popular professional player, Sana's Yellow Moonlight."
Everyone: “……??!!”
Yellow Moonlight? !!!
Fuji Shusuke asked with a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes, for fear of hearing something that would break his defense: "Excuse me, why is it Huang Yueguang?"
Gong You curled his lips, revealing an expression of "How can you be so stupid?" "Isn't it obvious? Because my hair is yellow."
Everyone: “………………”
Everyone closed their eyes, took a deep breath, and adjusted their breathing rhythm.
Is this how Huang Yueguang is used? I was almost scared to death by this guy. Can you please stop panting when you talk?
According to Terumiya Yu's logic, the group of guys playing basketball would become the red moonlight, blue moonlight, green moonlight, purple moonlight and cyan moonlight, and if they were combined together, a rainbow could be seen at night.
"Hey Zhi, I've finished introducing myself, it's your turn." Gong You poked the twin brother's arm, "Introduce yourself properly and don't embarrass me. You and I are one."
Although everyone worked together to save Sana, contributed their own strength, and formed an indescribable bond, they have never sat down and had a good chat, and they don’t even know what each other does.
Especially the one who just complained about him, Keigo Atobe, is extremely narcissistic and always calls himself "this master". Miya You has tolerated him for a long time.
"Oh." In response to Gong You's request, Gong Zhi said calmly: "My name is Gong Zhi, and I'm Sana's silver moonlight. I currently run a restaurant called 'Rice Ball Palace'. Sana likes the food I cook very much."
“………”
Kita Shinsuke suddenly raised his hand and covered his forehead with his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.
He could actually say the words "Silver Moonlight" seriously and without any shyness. This was something he had never done in his life. Did he forget that he had stopped dyeing his hair silver and turned it back to black?
I can only say that Zhi is worthy of being You's twin brother. They have exactly the same DNA in their bones, and when it comes to abstraction, each section becomes stronger than the last.
"Oh." Ryoma Echizen, who rushed back from the United States, imitated the other person's tone and said "Oh", still as infuriating as ever.
Echizen Ryoma: "So you're the hotel manager. My apologies."
Miyaji: “…”
"Pfft...Pfft hahahahahahahahaha!!!" Gong You laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. "I told you to play professionally with me a long time ago, but you didn't listen! Hahahaha..."
"Shut up." Miyaji threw a punch with an expressionless face. Kakuna Rintaro took out his mobile phone very naturally, turned on the camera with amazing speed, and recorded the twins' daily harmonious and friendly scene.
When Kakuna Rintaro took out his mobile phone, Yukimura Seiichi next to him took a sharp glance and noticed that the lock screen photo on Kakuna's phone was Sana.
His lock screen seemed to be a magazine photo of Sana from when she was an entertainer in their timeline, and it was incredibly beautiful.
Yukimura Seiichi was silent for a moment, and made a silent decision in his heart that when he returned, he would search the entire Internet for all the photos of Sana when she was an artist, save them all, and then use his brush to hand-paint each photo of Sana and replace them with his mobile phone lock screen photos.
"Huh? Didn't I introduce myself?" Atobe Keigo raised an eyebrow, his smile bold and confident. He raised his hand high and snapped his fingers with a crisp sound. "I am the red rose on the tip of Sana's heart, the heir to the Atobe Group, a member of the U-17 Japanese national team, and the king who stands tall above the two hundred men of Hyotei!"
Everyone: “………………”
Upon hearing this, everyone who was playing tennis lowered their heads and made the same gesture as Kita Shinsuke had just made. They all raised their hands to cover their faces, as if they didn't want to admit that they knew Atobe.
Wow, he is really worthy of being called Atobe. He dares to speak, but they dare not listen... This is too funny!
The red rose on Sana's heart—how could she be so narcissistic and yet so naturally say such an extremely awkward description? Even more outrageous than Gong You's "yellow moonlight" just now!
"Pfft, pfft, hahahahahahahaha!" Oikawa Tooru was the first to laugh out loud, and couldn't help but complain to Iwaizumi beside him, "Iwa-chan, did you hear that? He said he's the red rose! If that's the case, then I'm also the white rose in Sana's heart, right?!"
"Asshole Oikawa, I think you're a morning glory," Iwaizumi said expressionlessly.
Oikawa Toru: “…”
Amidst the laughter of the entire audience, only Hinata Shoyo's orange eyes were shining brightly, with a look of genuine admiration and respect on his face.
"Wow, this Atobe-kun is so amazing! This is the first time I've seen an heir to a consortium! What's even more amazing is that he's a player on the Japanese team! Kageyama, did you hear that? I also want to be a player on the Japanese team in the future—"
Hearing Hinata Shoyo's words, Atobe Keigo was slightly stunned, and for the first time he focused his gaze and attention on Hinata-kun, who was as energetic as an orange puppy.
After a moment, Atobe Keigo curled the corners of his mouth, revealing a genuine smile.
It seems that I understand a little bit what the system said, that is, the reason why Sana can't let go of these volleyball guys.
They are indeed as dazzling and scorching as the sun, unforgettable.
Kageyama Tobio also smiled, "I understand, boke. If you want to become a national team player, then work harder!"
Everyone began to introduce themselves one after another. The atmosphere was filled with a sense of lightness and laughter. However, once the topic of "who is the special existence in Sana's heart" was brought up, it became a Shura field with a sense of open robbery and covert attack. The atmosphere was quite strange for a moment.
When everyone is laughing, some people's frown and low mood stand out.
"Aomine-kun, what's wrong?" Noticing that something was wrong with Aomine Daiki beside him, Kuroko Tetsuya asked, "What happened?"
“…Nothing.” Aomine Daiki looked down at his phone. On it was a message from Momoi Satsuki: [A-Da, I was saying good things about you guys to Sana!]
"It doesn't look like nothing happened." Kuroko Tetsuya is always unexpectedly perceptive.
Aomine Daiki clenched his phone tightly, veins popping out of his dark brown arm muscles. "...May said she's speaking well of us to Sana right now... but I don't think she'll forgive me."
Upon hearing this, Kise Ryota was also stunned, Murasakibara Atsushi's tall body also stiffened in place, and a hint of complexity flashed in Akashi Seijuro's crimson eyes.
"...Indeed." Kise Ryota gave a wry smile. "Aomine-chan is right. Add to that the fact that I've been spending the past few days with other people, and I've become even more aware that compared to everyone else, we really... haven't left Sana with any good memories."
Murasakibara Atsushi said hoarsely, "...I really want to see Lizi, I really want to see her, but I'm scared...I'm afraid that she'll feel heartbroken when she sees me."
Even though it was a brand new, complete heart, even though all tests had shown no problems, even though the heart beating in her body now was even made up of a part of him, Murasakibara Atsushi was still afraid, worried that he would cause her pain.
For a long time, the scene of Sana falling in front of him would often wake him up from nightmares in the middle of the night.
Heartache, regret, and sadness intertwined together, making his heart feel the same sour pain as Sana's.
"I'm getting more and more curious and confused after hearing this." Oikawa Toru couldn't help but ask, "So, what did you do to Sana?"
“………”
The rainbow-haired boys were silent for a moment.
"Oh, that's right. Oikawa-senpai wasn't there when we were in the hospital corridor, so you didn't hear the whole story," Kageyama Tobio said. "At the time, Kise-kun said that Sana-senpai was so angry about their childish and excessive behavior that she suffered a heart arrhythmia and collapsed on the spot. She's been in a coma ever since."
"Can I ask what exactly is this childish and excessive behavior?" asked Seiichi Yukimura.
"...That day, I told Lizi that she shouldn't have bothered me." Murasakibara Atsushi's voice became even hoarser. "I said, isn't she just taking advantage of my liking for her that she's so unscrupulous? So I decided not to like her anymore and not care about her anymore... That's what I told her."
“……!”
"Murasara, so you said something like that to her." Midorima Shintaro said in a daze, "No wonder she looked so miserable when she first came into the gym..."
Kise Ryouta's face also turned a little paler. "Sana has always wanted us to return to the way we were before, and not fall apart, but we didn't. Not only that, we also insulted our opponents on the court, insulted our teammates' childhood friends, wasted time on the court, tossed the ball around, and helped the opponent score, just to make the score 111:11..."
“………………”
When they heard this, everyone else's eyebrows couldn't help but frown and twisted into a ball.
Just hearing such a description, their eyes were filled with vivid images, and a feeling of depression and discomfort rose in their hearts.
Although they don't play basketball, what they have in common is that they all have an almost rigorous respect for ball sports. No matter who their opponent is, they will give their all in every game and respect their opponent.
Therefore, they could not imagine or understand why these rainbow-haired guys in front of them did this and why they humiliated others in this way.
Any normal person would empathize with the so-called opponents.
"...I see." Hinata Shoyo, who always smiled, lost his smile at this moment. He said hesitantly, "Now it seems that if Sana-senpai chose different ways to 'leave' in the three timelines... maybe she left because she couldn't bear it anymore."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Generation of Miracles suddenly raised their heads and looked at him, their faces filled with surprise.
Even the usually calm Akashi Seijuro's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had only thought of this angle for the first time after Hinata Shoyo's reminder.
No, perhaps he had already thought about this possibility, but just didn't want to believe it.
I don't want to believe that Sana left on her own initiative... It's just because she was tired of them and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Oikawa Tooru smacked his lips, pulled Hinata Shoyo aside, leaned close to his ear and whispered in a low voice, "Hey, little one, you're going to kill someone! As expected of you, right? You've always had such a sharp intuition!"
Hinata Shoyo: “……!”
Sorry, he didn't mean it!
"It's entirely possible." Gong You continued, "After you, Sana came to our timeline, right? Luckily, we healed her."
The Generation of Miracles: “…”
"No, it sounds like you were really more than just a middle school student when you were in junior high school. It was to an exaggerated level." Ryoma Echizen commented.
Akashi Seijuro, who is the most serious middle school student: “…”
Murasakibara Atsushi: “…”
Aomine Daiki: “…”
Looking at the young men before him, frozen like rainbow-colored stone statues, Kita Shinsuke sighed, stepped forward, and spoke:
"No matter what grudges you and Sana have had, the only thing I'm sure of is this: with Sana's personality, as long as we communicate with her properly and explain things clearly, there's no misunderstanding that can't be resolved."
After saying that, Kita Shinsuke took out a piece of paper from his pocket.
"So, I've created a scientific, effective, and most reasonable schedule that won't affect Sana's recovery and rest, nor will it trigger the 'overcrowding warning' at the nurses' station. Everyone, please follow this schedule from now on."
“……?!”
Everyone was stunned.
What? !
There is actually such a thing as a shift schedule?!
