Chapter 290: One step further, trapped in the equipment room (Part 4) [1K]

Jingle Bell.

As the bell rang, the students in Class C on the playground scattered like birds and beasts, leaving only three boys still playing basketball.

But they also said that if there were three more balls, they would disperse.

Sitting on the flower bed next to the basketball court, Watanabe You looked at the three people sweating in the basketball court and became inexplicably distracted.

“By the way, how’s your basketball game?”

Suddenly, Yuki Hayakawa, who was sitting next to him, took the initiative to start a conversation.

“If you don’t require overalls, then it’s still okay.”

Upon hearing this, Watanabe Yu gave an answer reflexively.

“Uh, dungarees?”

Yuki Hayakawa was stunned for a second, then looked at Yu Watanabe with a puzzled look.

Although it was not the first time that he had spoken words that she could not understand at all, she still had not fully adapted to it.

“Nothing.” Watanabe Yu coughed lightly and changed the subject, “So, why did you suddenly mention playing basketball?”

“Because I see you seem to be staring at them in a daze.”

Seeing that Watanabe Yu was unwilling to explain more, Hayakawa Yuki withdrew her thoughts and turned to the new topic he had thrown out.

“It’s just a little emotional.”

Watanabe Yu raised his eyebrows and then looked at the boy who was holding the ball.

After two familiar dribbles between the legs, the boy dribbled past the two defenders, then jumped lightly and made a two-point shot.

If he remembered correctly, the other person was a member of the school basketball team and a special recruit.

As for that smooth dribbling move just now, there was nothing to say.

Of course, compared with top athletes like Yuan Daying, he is definitely a little bit inferior.

“Sentimental?”

Yuki Hayakawa tilted her head.

She didn’t quite understand what he meant.

“Well, I remembered something from the past.” Watanabe Yuu thought for a moment and continued, “When I was in school, there were two girls in my class who played basketball. Both of them were members of the school team, and then they fell in love with the same boy.”

This was something he had personally experienced before traveling through time.

The boy who was being pursued at that time was his buddy.

“And then they started fighting over this boy?”

Yuki Hayakawa asked tentatively.

“Yes, but no.” Watanabe You considered his words, “The two girls didn’t fight overtly or verbally, but made a bet on the score of the next school team game. Whoever scored the lowest would withdraw voluntarily.”

Now that I think about it, the two girls’ solution was quite serious and advanced, with a bit of the flavor of a medieval European knight duel.

“!”

Hearing this, Yuki Hayakawa’s eyes suddenly lit up.

She is interested!
“So, who won that game?”

She asked this question impatiently.

“The taller girl won, and she won by a huge margin, because the shorter girl wasn’t in good shape for that match, and she had insomnia the night before.”

Speaking of this, Watanabe Yu couldn’t help but pursed his lips.

Honestly, if the story ended here, it would be quite interesting, but unfortunately, stories are logical and literary, but life is not.

“And the tall girls got happiness?”

Yuki Hayakawa looked at Yu Watanabe with anticipation.

“No, because long before the competition, that boy accepted the confession of a girl from the next class.”

Watanabe Yu gave a truthful answer.

“…?”

This time, Yuki Hayakawa did not continue the conversation, but looked at Watanabe Yu with a questioning look.

She couldn’t understand the inevitable connection between this story and the scene before her, let alone the logic of the story.

So the two girls who were seriously pursuing that boy lost, and the girl who ran away won, right?
Uh.

and many more?

It seems, as if, maybe, that this does make sense logically.

“Don’t think too much about it. This is just something I witnessed before. You asked and I answered. That’s all. Don’t do reading comprehension.”

Watanabe Yu saw what Yuki was thinking and answered first.

He was really afraid that this girl would make up things in her mind.

“……oh.”

After the words fell, Hayakawa Yuki was silent for a moment, then nodded obediently.

“We’ve got it done here!”

While the two were chatting, the basketball match came to a temporary end.

The final result was that one person scored a goal.

In other words, a world where no one gets hurt is achieved.

The boy who had just passed the ball easily raised his hand high, waved at Watanabe Yu, and then walked towards him.

“Ok.”

Watanabe Yu nodded and stood up.

“You vote too, Watanabe!”

The boy raised his eyebrows, threw the ball over, and there was a little more anticipation in his eyes.

Yu Watanabe doesn’t usually play basketball, and the few times he did shoot, it was arranged by the physical education teacher that everyone had to shoot.

He remembered very clearly that Watanabe Yu’s shooting posture was quite beautiful. It was not the kind of “shooting” that beginners did, but a “shooting” driven by the wrist.

Just by looking at the force posture, he could tell at a glance that Watanabe definitely could play basketball, and his level was not low.

“…”

Watanabe Yu didn’t say anything and took the basketball that was thrown to him.

After roughly estimating the distance between this side and the basket, he shot the ball easily.

The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air.

“At this distance, you are throwing…”

bang.

Just when the boy who was on the school team wanted to say something, the sound of the basketball hitting the hoop interrupted his subsequent speech.

From where Watanabe is standing now, he is nearly 11 meters away from the basket.

Even if the main players of the school team were to come, they could not guarantee a 100% hit rate, not to mention his relaxed state just now.

Gudong.

Instinctively, he swallowed and his Adam’s apple moved.

“Bullshit!”

After a full ten seconds of silence, he finally squeezed out these words.

He understood that Watanabe didn’t play basketball with the others because he was afraid of being bullied.

“Throw the ball over here. I have to go return the equipment.”

Watanabe You smiled and nodded, then said something to the short-haired boy who was also stunned.

“…Uh, okay.”

Hearing this, the short-haired boy was stunned at first, then he came to his senses and quickly picked up the still bouncing basketball.

But he didn’t throw the ball to Watanabe Yu. Instead, he trotted over to the latter and handed the basketball to him personally.

“Watanabe-san, can you teach me how to play basketball?”

Although he felt a little embarrassed, he still said this.

The skill Watanabe just displayed is much more awesome than that of the guy on the school team.

“Why not ask him for advice? Compared to my wild way, his method is much more standardized.”

Watanabe Yu shook his head, took the basketball, and then looked at the boy who was on the school team.

“……May I?”

The short-haired boy hesitated for a moment, then looked at his good friend.

He had thought about learning from his good friend before, but due to the damn face between men, he didn’t know where to start.

“Of course!”

His good buddy smiled and nodded.

“Let’s go, Yuki.”

Seeing the two of them having fun, Watanabe Yu turned around and called out to Yuki, who still looked stunned. “Oh, oh, here you come!”

Yuki Hayakawa stood up and followed him.

The two picked up the sports equipment that had been gathered together earlier and dragged the cart towards the equipment room.

It was lunch time, so there were not many people on the road leading to the equipment room. The only thing we could see were students hurrying through the corridor of the teaching building opposite.

“You, aren’t you not good at basketball? How come the ball just flew into the goal just like that?”

There were little stars of admiration in her eyes.

Even though one of her hands was pulling the cart, she was still gesticulating excitedly with her free hand.

What You did just now was really too sudden.

and.

So handsome!

“I’m not good at basketball. I only know the basics of shooting and dribbling.”

Watanabe Yu gave a frank answer.

“What about what you did just now?”

“Just consider it luck.”

He couldn’t say that he could always hit the target just by relying on his hard work and sweat, as well as the insignificant bonus from [Physical Fitness (Advanced)].

He had tried it before, and the difference between advanced skills and intermediate skills was conservatively estimated to be between 20% and 30%, and this bonus was based on one’s own physical fitness.

It feels very much like the equipment in an online game. The left side is the foundation, and the right side is the multiplier. Strengthening the body is the multiplier, and his own physical fitness, which can be improved through exercise, is the foundation.

“I’m afraid it’s more than just luck.”

Yuki Hayakawa pursed her rosy thin lips and said this meaningfully.

She is not a child anymore. How can she not distinguish between luck and modesty?

Just with You’s casual move just now, the absolute main force in the class basketball game was stunned.

“Hmm~”

Watanabe Yu responded perfunctorily.

“But this is also good, if you can shine in physical education class like you did in the school trip and sports meet before…”

Yuki Hayakawa withdrew her gaze and murmured softly.

I’m afraid that those girls from the next class who were waiting and watching before will also shamelessly take the initiative to pursue him.

She doesn’t want to have more rivals in love.

“The boys are about to come and beat me up?”

Watanabe Yuu took over the conversation and made a joke.

“You can say that.”

Yuki Hayakawa blinked and said this.

“We’re here.”

Watanabe Yuu stopped.

While chatting and laughing, the two of them had already walked through the corridor of the old school building and arrived at the equipment room.

“By the way, what are you planning to eat for lunch today?”

After opening the lock according to the method taught by Kiriyama, Watanabe Yu placed the brick next to him in the middle of the door and walked into the equipment room.

However, this brick was nearly half the size of the one described by Kiriyama and Ma.

Back to the topic, it should be said that the equipment rooms in Japan are indeed all of the same style.

The main theme is that there is no light, just complete darkness.

“I made my own bento.” Hayakawa Yuki looked at Watanabe Yu’s back, “Yu, do you want to try it? Although it’s definitely not as delicious as Ryoko’s, it’s still a lot better than before.”

Although it would seem a bit strange for her to say this herself.

But judging from her own taste relative to the general public, her cooking skills have indeed improved by several levels. Compared to when she first knew how to cook instant noodles, the improvement is visible to the naked eye.

“Stop talking. I’m going to drool.”

Watanabe Yu made a little joke, dragged the cart to the shelf, and put the sports equipment borrowed in class one by one.

“Humph.”

Even though she knew that You was praising her, Hayakawa Yuki still couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth and revealed a bright smile.

“Where’s Yuu? What’s for lunch?”

She followed in with her hands behind her back.

If she also takes part in putting the sports equipment away, it will definitely be faster than if You does it alone.

“It’s also a lunch box I brought from home, but it wasn’t made by Ryoko. It was made by me. I got up very early this morning and fried some spicy chicken and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.”

As Yu Watanabe spoke, he put the last basketball back in its place.

To be honest, he still has some regrets.

After all, Chinese food is definitely best when it’s out of the pot. Although it’s also delicious when you heat it up after it’s cooled down, it’s still a little bit less delicious than when it’s just out of the pot.

“Spicy chicken!?”

Yuki Hayakawa, who had just picked up the badminton racket, paused, and then looked at Yu Watanabe with some fear.

Everything he cooked tasted good to her, except for the spicy chicken, which he cooked too heavily, so much so that she couldn’t accept it at all.

“Yes, but this time I improved the taste. It’s not as spicy as before, and the aroma is more prominent.”

When it was out of the pot, he asked Ryoko to taste it.

Ryoko gave it a delicious review and said that the current level of spiciness was normal.

“Oh, well, can I have a taste of it later?”

Hearing Yuu say this, Yuki also mustered up some courage.

Although she felt that she and You had a big conflict over the definition of spicy food, this conflict gradually faded as You got to know her taste better.

“Of course you can. By the way, I have already prepared your portion for you.”

In fact, Ryoko asked him to pack this before she went out.

Ryoko said that since they had decided to accept Yuki, they had to treat everyone equally.

Of course, she couldn’t be the good guy, only he could do it.

“Hey, do I have one too!?”

Yuki Hayakawa looked at him with surprise.

“Yes, Yuki.”

Watanabe Yu picked up a volleyball and felt inexplicably emotional.

The girls said they wanted to play volleyball, but when the ball was borrowed, they didn’t want to play anymore.

“That……”

crunch.

Suddenly, Watanabe Yu heard a bad sound.

Subconsciously, he turned his head back.

then.

He saw the brick that was blocking the door was overturned by the door.

next second.

pat.

The door was closed, and the equipment room was suddenly plunged into darkness.

“…”

“…”

Although there was no light and they couldn’t see each other’s faces clearly, the two of them still looked at each other subconsciously.

“To be on the safe side, let me ask you first, do you have your cell phone with you?”

Even though the hope is slim, Watanabe Yu still has the same idea: what if?
“……No.”

Yuki-chan shook her head.

Although she behaves quite quietly in physical education class, she never brings her cell phone to class.

Besides, even if she brought it, the teacher would definitely not turn a blind eye to it.

“Then we can only wait.”

Watanabe Yu was not too worried. He threw the frame on the cart aside and sat on the cart relaxedly.

Now that things have come to this, all we can do is wait.
