"I understand that the opposing team's number five and number one are both quite strong. In a moment, number three forward will attack, and I will assist in the attack. Number five will adapt to the situation and keep a close eye on the opposing team's number five and number one. Number four will be the center, and number two will be responsible for guarding the back. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" everyone answered, except for Suiyi, who still looked completely confused. Forgive her, she simply didn't understand the rules of basketball! She had no idea what constituted a foul, what a center's role was, or anything like that.
Sui Yi nodded in agreement, and soon began to improvise. Sigh! It was time for her to show off. Even though it might seem a bit unfair, she figured she should be as high-profile as possible.
The referee inbounded the ball from the center line. The opposing team got the ball, and everyone rushed to grab it. Three players from her team surrounded the ball's owner. Seeing the situation was not good, she called to her teammates and passed the ball to them forcefully.
The opportunity has arrived. Sui Yi quickly ran over and caught the ball, leaving the judges stunned. What's going on?
"Ah! Ranran, well done, keep it up!"
Sui Yi raised an eyebrow at her opponent and provocatively raised her chin. Just as Sui Yi was about to shoot, the referee blew the whistle!
Sui Yi was stunned. What was going on?
"Blue team's number four player commits a foul! Red team inbounds the ball."
"..." Sui Yi passed the ball to the opponent who came to catch it, still looking confused. How did she commit a foul?
"Are you stupid? You got the ball, why didn't you pass it to the back? What are you doing holding the ball?"
"Do you even know how to play?" Her teammates walked over and rolled their eyes at her.
"Failed to show off, and ended up embarrassing himself! Dead."
In just a short while, people started scrambling for the ball. Sui Yi's eyes lit up, and she quickly rushed over to join the ball-grabbing frenzy.
The ball was in the hands of the red team's number three. Sui Yi went over and interfered with her pass. The ball bounced twice on the ground, and Sui Yi successfully grabbed the ball, dribbled it once, and aimed at her own basket to shoot.
"What are you doing?" The captain shouted when he saw Sui Yi's actions. Did she think she was so great that she could score from such a distance?
Sui Yi didn't stop when she heard the sound. She tossed the ball in her hand, and a perfect parabola appeared in the air. Clang! The ball went into the basket.
There was an uproar around them, and everyone on the field was dumbfounded, staring at her with wide eyes and open mouths.
"My God, that's incredible luck! To score from such a far position, is he even human?"
A round of applause erupted, and the referee made a three-pointer, indicating that it was a three-pointer and the blue team scored three points.
In the following game, Suiyi was incredibly brave, as if she had eaten a whole pack of gum. By halftime, the Red Team had already secured three points, essentially dominating the first half.
Everyone stared at her in amazement, wondering how she did it. She never missed a ball once it was in her hands, though she did commit several fouls and thus failed to score.
"Well done, huh? Are you even capable of playing in the second half?"
"certainly!"
"Are you not quite familiar with the rules of basketball?" The captain hesitated to speak, realizing that this guy seemed to be a complete idiot when it came to the rules, yet he was incredibly skilled at stealing and shooting the ball.
"If the captain is willing to tell me, then I'd be happy to listen."
"Okay! Let me explain. I won't go into much detail, just some important points. In basketball, each player has four fouls allowed. A fifth foul results in ejection from the game, and the player cannot return for the same match. Free throws are shots taken when no one can block or defend them. They are a penalty for the offending team, giving the other team a chance. You must stand behind the free throw line and shoot within 10 seconds of receiving the ball from the referee. After shooting, you cannot step across the free throw line until the ball touches the rim. Common violations include traveling, double dribbling, kicking the ball, or punching the ball. Jump ball violations: anyone other than the jump ball players may enter the center circle before the ball is touched. These are the things you need to pay attention to, understand?"
"Thanks! Got it. But the bad news is, I already have four fouls. If I commit another one in the second half, will I be ejected?"
"No, it should be the red team serving."
"Okay, I understand."
Ten minutes later, everyone returned to the court. Suiyi found herself as if she were a hot commodity, with the Red Team looking at her aggressively.
"Be careful in this match; it looks like they're targeting you!"
"It's alright, we'll deal with whatever comes our way."
The referee blew the whistle, the red team served, and the game started again.
Perhaps feeling that Sui Yi was too formidable, the red team broke with convention, having three players keep a close eye on her. Unfortunately for them, they couldn't stop her.
Finally, the game ended. In the second half, Sui Yi didn't commit any more fouls, and the opposing team didn't score a single point. Instead, everyone was panting heavily.
The blue team members were so happy that they lifted Sui Yi up.
Oh! Oh!
"Haha! Put me down." After being put down, Suiyi walked out of the court, relaxed, and suddenly felt a little unsteady.
Cheng Yue reacted quickly and caught her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, I just felt a bit drained." Sui Yi shook her head and was helped to sit down.
"Ranran, watching you play is so much fun! You know what? You're like a bug, invincible."
"I'm human too. You're making it sound like I'm someone who never gets tired."
"I never knew you were so amazing."
"Really? If you admire me, could you give me a shoulder massage? My shoulders are so sore."
