the next day,
After completing his practice task ahead of schedule, Jingguang said something to Atobe Keigo and left the tennis court.
Take the bus to Teiko Junior High School.
As you step into the campus, this public school, although not as luxurious and noble as Bingdi, also reveals a simple and elegant atmosphere.
"Hello, classmate, you are not from our school, right? Who are you looking for?"
The security uncle at the school gate dutifully stopped Jingguang, who was obviously not wearing the uniform that matched his school uniform, and asked.
"Hello, I'm from Hyotei Academy. I'm here to look for my brother. He's studying here."
The security uncle looked Jing Guang up and down. The boy was wearing a Hyotei uniform and looked like he was explaining something seriously. He looked like a good student!
He let her go readily, "Oh~ ok, then go ahead."
"Thanks."
Jing Guang thanked him politely, then walked into this traditional but famous school.
On campus, cherry blossoms are blooming and flying in the air.
From time to time, it drifts and swirls with the wind before flying to other places.
"Um...excuse me, please excuse me,"
A girl's voice sounded from behind.
Jingguang turned around and found that the person who spoke was a girl wearing a Teiko Junior High School uniform jacket, with pink hair tied in a ponytail behind her head.
She held a lot of documents in her arms.
"Who are you......"
Taoi Satsuki looked at the uniform embroidered with the words Hyotei, then looked at the boy in front of her. He looked very familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
Ice Emperor...
The school festival in the first year of junior high school!
That, that...
"Is it Hyotei's Atobe-kun?"
"Yes, Atobe Kagemitsu, please give me your guidance."
Jingguang nodded, but he didn't show any intention of taking the item from the girl's hand to help.
"Hello, I'm Taoi Satsuki. We met during the Hyotei School Festival in our first year of junior high school, but you may not remember."
"Remember."
Jingguang shook his head and looked at the girl, remembering where he had seen this person before.
"You are the friend of that tall dark-skinned guy."
Or a girlfriend?
It doesn't matter, it doesn't affect the result.
"The tall, dark-skinned guy? Ah Da?"
Good image~
Ah Da, that idiot! Big fool!
snort!
"Excuse me, do you know where Akashi-chan is?"
"Are you here to see Akashi-kun?"
The two spoke almost at the same time.
Something flashed in Tao Jing Satsuki's eyes, and then she raised her lips and showed a warm smile.
"Boss Akashi should be in the basketball gym. If he's not there, he should be in the shogi club."
She looked at Jing Guang and said, "Come with me. I also want to go to the basketball court."
"Thanks."
Jingguang followed the girl, and the two walked side by side through the long corridor.
but,
"Minister Akashi?"
This was the first time Jingguang heard this name.
Xiao Zheng also became a minister?
But that's true. He was able to become a vice minister when he was young, so it's normal for him to become a minister now.
"Yes, Akashi-san has already become a club leader in the second semester of the second year of junior high school."
Tao Jing Wu Yue nodded, then hesitated for a year and asked tentatively,
"I don't think I've seen you since the first year of junior high school."
Akashi-san has changed for so long, why does it seem like Atobe-san knows nothing about it?
Jingguang answered calmly,
"Well, I went abroad and just came back two months ago."
"Ah, so that's how it is. No wonder..."
No wonder I haven't seen him show up since then, nor have I heard Akashi mention him.
"No wonder?"
"Ah, nothing, the basketball hall is just ahead."
Tao Jing Wuyue shook off her worries and pointed to the venue a few dozen meters ahead with one free hand, "Please follow me."
“Can I come in…?”
Jingguang asked politely while standing at the entrance of the venue.
“Boom——”
“Dongdong——”
From inside, one could hear basketballs hitting the ground, footsteps, breathing, voices calling out to teammates, and voices cheering.
