So dazzling...!

This smile was simply shining... She couldn't help but want to reach out to block the light and heat on the other person's body.

Damn it, I feel like I lost both in terms of charm and mental power.

"I can't say I like it..."

She picked up the volleyball at her feet and avoided her sight with a little embarrassed.

"I just, that one, want to try it..." and then made a fool of myself.

Sakurai walked to the wall with the ball in his arms and handed it to the young man Migan who was stomping on the wall: "This is your ball, right?"

"Well, thank you! I accidentally threw the ball here, sorry~" The young man Migan's voice was very loud, and his orange-brown eyes stared at her with anticipation, "I am Hinata Shoyo! Where are you?"

...How familiar is this.

However, it's not annoying.

The boy's eyes were bright and clear, his red cheeks were full of vitality after exercise, and his smile was as warm as his beautiful hair color...

Just like his last name, Hinata (towards the sun), he is a person who is as full of heat as the sun.

“…Sakurai.”

[Information log has been updated.]

[People: Hinata Shoyo

Popularity: Volleyball (caps bold)

Grade: Second grade of junior high school

Introduction: A boy with superb motor nerves and amazing physical strength. He is cheerful and positive and friendly to others. At present, he is suffering from the fact that the school does not have a men's volleyball department and can only practice volleyball alone, so his skills are very good.]

Is it true that I am a volleyball enthusiast... but I can only practice alone, and I always feel a little miserable.

Sakurai, who had just left the volleyball team with a full range of facilities and a large number of players, thought so.

"Hey? Are 'Sakura' and 'Star'? This name is so great... like the stars born in spring."

Hinata Shoyo's praise and smile are very pure, with a kind of appreciation from the bottom of his heart.

Sakurai: "..."

not good.

She heard the sound of her increasing favorability.

She didn't notice what he didn't say...

Is the name the sun and the stars...

"That, star~"

Hinata Shoyo took the volleyball with one hand and stomped on the wall with the other hand, forcing her to hold on to the bottom of the wall.

He maintained this difficult position and still looked down at her persistently, as if there was light flashing in his eyes:

"Do you want to practice volleyball with me?"

[You accidentally met a juvenile boy who was practicing football alone. He was worried that he had no teammates and hoped that you could train with him.]

[Random Event: Practice volleyball with [Hyuga Shoyo]]

...Practice volleyball?

Sakurai's eyes fell on his expectant face, paused for two seconds, and returned to the old volleyball.

“…I don’t live here, I have to take the Shinkansen home tonight.”

After she said this, the boy's expression suddenly became listless, and his puppy-like round eyes drooped.

"Yes, that's right..."

He responded in a low voice.

The corners of Sakurai's mouth were raised.

"The ticket for the return trip is 9:30 pm." She said, pretending not to see the other party suddenly raised her head, and smiled: "So... it's up to three hours, Xiangyang."

The teasing was successful... the revenge that was ridiculed was avenged on the spot!

The player thinks very well.

*

There is a relatively spacious small park next to the old house, which is usually small, so it has become a secret base for Hinata Shoyo to practice volleyball.

"But if you are alone, how should you practice?" Sakurai Hide changed into sports shoes and knee pads, followed him to the open space, and asked in a little confused, "If you don't block the net, it will be difficult to be effective even if you practice serving."

"That..." The boy from the orange-haired scratched his cheek embarrassedly, "Actually, I usually ask friends from other clubs and aunts passing by to help throw the ball..."

"Ah, aunt?"

This kid is really strong...

"Yeah!" Hinata nodded vigorously, with a gloomy smile on her face. "Also, if you tap the volleyball on the wall, the ball will bounce back, so that alone can practice!"

Sakurai: "..."

...It's so miserable!

And he didn't think he was miserable at all!

She had just teased this poor Migan Man...

A strong sense of guilt suddenly surged up, and Sakurai couldn't help it, and looked away with a faint expression, trying to change the topic:

"Then...that is to say, Xiangyang hasn't done a more formal exercise yet, right?"

After all, even throwing the ball requires the aunt who passes by, probably without teammates... It is really different from the situation in Beichuan No. 1.

"That's right..." Hinata Shoyo threw a volleyball and caught it: "But it's okay! I'm already in the second grade. After the first grade freshmen enter school, I will also try my best to recruit new ones! As long as I get all the people, I can stand on the court-!"

When he spoke such a bold statement, he stared at the old volleyball, with an unshakable passion and persistence in his eyes.

Sakurai looked at him for a while and let out a gentle breath.

“…Where is Xiangyang?”

“Eh?”

The thrown volleyball hit his forehead with a "smack" and fell to the ground, slowly rolling away.

The boy with orange hair didn't care.

He opened his eyes wide and looked over blankly.

Sakurai Xing was a little overwhelmed: "What, why..."

What is this reaction?... Are you stupid?

Before she could finish speaking, the boy's eyes suddenly lit up.

"star--!"

Hinata Shoyo was so excited that he clenched his fists with both hands, and his face suddenly turned red, "That was just now! Could you do it again?"

"Hey...? That... Xiangyang is, where is the location..."

"Yes!" The Migan people who were asked raised their hands hard, their voices loudly and filled with excited happiness: "I am the main attacker, Hinata Shoyo! Please give me some advice!"

……Wow.

Wouldn't he feel embarrassed...?

Sakurai opened his mouth and passed the mouth with all kinds of complaints, staring at the other party's smiley face full of joy... Finally, he only chuckled.

"Ha... OK, I understand. Please give me some advice, Xiangyang."

Her soft voice was filled with a smile.

The boy paused his hands with his raised height, looked at her face slightly dull, and widened his eyes little by little. With a "bang", steam came out of his head, and his face turned red as if it was burning.

Migan Ren seemed to realize how ashamed the behavior was, her face flushed with shame, and she waved her hands at a loss: "Sorry! I, that... I just had never been asked so formally 'where', so! I accidentally 'swish' and gotten carried away-"

"Is that true? Then let's take the momentum for the next exercise."

Sakurai picked up the volleyball that was rolling far away, took a few steps, and distanced himself from Hinata Shoyo.

She took a deep breath and emptied her thoughts.

First of all, we must build the volleyball court in our imagination...

The size of the volleyball court has been met in Beiyi today... the position of the blocking, the position of the second setter and the attacker...

The smell, touch and weight of the volleyball... Although it is a bit subtle difference from the old ball in your hand, the rough and solid feel still overlaps.

...It feels good.

She opened her eyes and smiled at the young man staring at her.

"I haven't said before... I can't serve or catch the ball, but if I hold the ball, maybe I can try it."

"......In these three hours, let me be your second setter - ace.
