[Comprehensive] When the green room is crossed

The small restaurant that Xiandao mentioned is actually a small restaurant. From the outside, Midorima didn't think it was very conspicuous. After he followed Xiandao inside, he found that the inside was actually quite clean and tidy, with bright windows. The appearance made Midorima's favorability for this store rise by several percentage points in an instant.

Xiandao piled up all the fishing tools in his hands at the entrance of the store, and then he only held the fish and beckoned Midorima to go in with him. After entering, he greeted the boss behind the counter in a familiar way: "Hey, Uncle Nagasawa! Long time no see~~"

The boss who already had a few conspicuous wrinkles on his face was just packing up his things with a serious face, but when he saw Xiandao coming in, he immediately changed his expression, and his frowning brows spread out instantly. Come on, he looked at Xiandao with a smile, "Azhang, it's been a long time, maybe a week?" He made jokes that didn't match his appearance without any psychological pressure.

Xiandao touched his head with his empty hand without any embarrassment, "So I haven't seen you uncle for only a week? Why does it always feel like a long time has passed hahaha~~"

"You kid——" Nagasawa stopped his hands and teased him: "Don't you come back here to fish every week? Although every time there is no result, I don't know what you are trying to do all day long. Why are you just sitting there..." At this point, his voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes turned to Xiandao's specially raised hand.

He looked at Xiandao with surprise in his eyes, "Could it be that this is the fish you caught today, Zhang?" He had never given him such a surprise before.

Xiandao pointed his eyes in the direction of Midorima without being shy at all, "No, uncle, this is caught by my friend. You know my skills. How can you be so lucky? It's all thanks to Midorima I just caught this fish, so I will bring it to you, uncle!" He handed the fish to Boss Nagasawa very generously.

Nagasawa took the fish with picky eyes and looked at it carefully, and then reluctantly said: "This fish is growing well, and it should be enough to cook bowls of noodles for you two. You are really lucky." After looking at the fish, he said Turning his gaze to Midorima behind Xiandao, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were very obvious when he laughed, "Are you A Zhang's friend? Are you called Midorima? You're quite capable."

Midorima can be regarded as a model and good junior when facing the elders. He bowed politely to Nagasawa and said: "Excuse me, I am Shintaro Midorima. It is just my luck to catch this fish. No big deal." The attitude was as respectful as it could be.

Nagasawa was pleased by his actions, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiandao beside him with a funny face, and retorted: "It's not a big deal, at least Azhang must be very envious of your good luck, he wants to do it Now, you can see that he has never caught a fish." He unceremoniously revealed the bottom of the immortal way.

Xiandao looked at them helplessly, "Uncle Nagasawa, you are really impolite, can't you save me some face? It seems that it is not good to expose my shortcomings in front of my friends like this?"

Nagasawa said bluntly: "I don't know you, kid? I have known you for a few years? Of course I said it because I knew you wouldn't really mind. Besides, isn't Midorima your friend? Share with friends The little secret is no big deal, right?" After he finished speaking, he patted Xiandao on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Lvjian is a rare friend you brought here, I can't be too stingy, can I?"

Xiandao was dumbfounded by his statement, he touched his nose more helplessly, and by the way glanced at the silent Midorima, spread his hands and said: "Okay, I really don't mind, but uncle Ah, we are almost unbearably hungry now, can you please hurry up and prepare some food for us? You must know that we are teenagers who are growing up, but we can’t go hungry~~" He said funny Ze Bian pursed his mouth.

Nagasawa was amused by him, and he stopped talking about the previous topic. He took the fish to the kitchen at the back, during which he asked: "Then I will cook two bowls of ramen for you, with fish soup as the soup base." Is it ok? Does Green Room have any special taste requirements?" He poked his head out of the kitchen to look at Green Room.

Midorima shook his head and said, "There is no special requirement, you can do whatever you want."

Nagasawa put his head back with a smile, and a sentence came out: "Then you just wait there, it will be over soon."

Xiandao led Midorima to sit down on a table with familiar movements, with a smile on his face, "Look forward to Midorima, Uncle Nagasawa's craftsmanship is very good, every time I come here for fishing, I will come here to eat One meal, you will never get tired of eating it!" Speaking of delicious food, you should share it with your friends!

Midorima looked around the environment in the store, and was very satisfied with the bright and simple design here. He nodded to express that he heard what Xiandao said, "ah, I will look forward to it." Made with fish he caught himself Ramen, he still wanted to try it.

It was almost 10 minutes later when Nagasawa brought out the two steaming bowls of ramen, but neither of the two were dissatisfied.

Immediately after taking the first mouthful of noodles, Xiandao praised: "Oh... delicious!"

Luma also took a mouthful of noodles after him, but his movements were much more refined than his. His reaction was similar to that of Xiandao. He squinted his eyes slightly to express the surprise on his taste buds, and then waited for the first mouthful of noodles in his mouth. After swallowing it, he said slowly, "It tastes good." The noodles are firm yet elastic, and the noodle soup is rich and delicious. To him, this is really a delicious bowl of noodles.

"Haha, am I right?" Xiandao was also very happy to see that he also liked Nagasawa's craftsmanship. He was eating quickly while talking non-stop: "Although I originally I really like Uncle’s cooking skills, but now Midorima, you also like to eat here, which still makes me very happy~~”

After swallowing a mouthful of the noodle soup, he gave Midorima a pure and bright smile, "Sharing your favorite things with others really makes people feel better!"

Midorima lowered his head and ate his noodles quietly, ignoring him. When Xiandao hadn't received an answer for a long time and began to feel lost in his heart, he vaguely heard an extremely vague "En" from the opposite side.

However, although the sound was so small that it could be ignored, Xiandao still managed to catch Midorima's response that he didn't seem to want to say out loud, and he continued to bury his head in his noodles contentedly.

——Well, he really has begun to get used to Midorima's awkwardness and inarticulateness...

He couldn't help but think of some of the opponent's performance before, and he couldn't help laughing muffledly, which attracted strange glances from Midorima on the opposite side.

After lunch was settled, Nagasawa thoughtfully served hot tea to the two, and after Midorima thanked him, he didn't walk away immediately, but stood beside the two with a smile and suddenly asked: "By the way , since you are Azhang’s friend, are you also a student of Lingnan, Lujian? Do you also play basketball like Azhang?” He looked at Luma, and then couldn’t help but sigh: “Boys who play basketball are really in good health now. -"

Before Luma could answer, Xiandao had already explained for him, and he waved his hand to deny Nagasawa's statement: "No, uncle, Luma is not a student from Lingnan, he is from Xiangbei, but he is indeed a student just like me. That's basketball."

"Xianbei..." Nagasawa lowered his head and thought for a while, then opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Isn't Xiangbei the school that defeated your Lingnan?"

Xiandao nodded generously, "Yes, that's Xiangbei."

Nagasawa's eyes wandered between Midorima and Xiandao, and he said hesitantly: "That means, it was Midorima and you who defeated Akira and the others?" He still remembered the bad mood of the opponent on the day they lost.

Midorima nodded and admitted very quickly, "That's true." The thing about the game is to win or lose, and what he has to do is to keep winning.

"Then you..." Nagasawa looked at them with vacillating eyes, and for a moment he didn't know what to say—it shouldn't be a good feeling to face a friend who is a competitor?

Xiandao is open-minded, he waved his hand indifferently, "Oh, it's nothing, uncle, this is a game, either Midorima and the others lose or we lose~~" To be honest, except for the day of losing, his mood was really a little bit Except for the uncontrollable depression, he is very optimistic at other times.

——After all, the game is just a way for him to find fun. Compared with the victory of the game, he still prefers to play a hearty game so that he has no regrets, although the feeling of losing the game is not very good That's it.

Nagasawa looked at him helplessly, he knew very well that according to the character of the opponent, he was indeed not the type who would value such fame, but after all, the opponent was his friend, and more importantly, he lost...

As if understanding the confusion in his heart, Xiandao took the initiative to explain: "Uncle, you don't know, Midorima is also a very good person. He plays basketball very well, so I will lose to them only because of strength! If Because of the relationship between the two of us, Luma has some scruples and didn't go all out. At that time, it's not just one person who feels uncomfortable. Uncle, don't worry, a game will not affect anything, me and Luma The friendship between the two can stand the test! Do you mean Midorima? Will you look down on me because I lost the game?" He winked at Midorima.

Midorima pushed his glasses, his expression remained unchanged and said: "Ah, I never thought you were a good opponent." He pursed his lips and said honestly: "You are very strong, Xiandao." Even the usual Xiandao has always given people a gentle and easy-going impression, but when facing his sharp offensive on the court, as long as you relax a little, you will immediately reveal your flaws and be caught by him and defeat your defense in one fell swoop... By It can be seen that although he successfully scored when facing Xiandao's defense, Midorima has never mentioned the hardships to others.

——That was actually not easy, he could only do it with ease if he didn't dare to relax for a moment.

Xiandao smiled in surprise and narrowed his eyes, he stroked his chin and looked very happy, "Hey - it's the first time I heard Midorima's evaluation of me, I really didn't expect that I have such a high evaluation in your heart, I really It was a surprise." He paused for a moment before continuing, "But I'm also very happy." It's a very rare thing to be affirmed by Midorima, so how could he not be happy?

Midorima closed his mouth and didn't continue to speak. Seeing his silence, he knew that he was used to Xiandao's overly straightforward expression.

Nagasawa looked at the two of them curiously, and finally came to a conclusion - it seems that the relationship between these two people is really better than he imagined... And...

—— These two people simply don't care about things like friends becoming opponents in the game!What is he, a person who has nothing to do with him, worrying about here?It's just too busy!

He crossed his arms and sighed, and continued to talk about another matter: "Since you have nothing to do with each other, then I don't mean anything to say... But Azhang, didn't you say that we can only have one in Kanagawa County this winter competition?" Is the school participating? Is that school your school, Lujian?" Since Xiangbei can defeat Lingnan where Azhang is, then they should also be very powerful, right?

Green nodded silently.

Nagasawa looked at him in surprise, "Really? Then you have to work hard! It is not easy to represent Kanagawa——If I have time, I will also watch your game and cheer for you. This time Is the venue still in Tokyo?"

The expression on Midorima's face froze for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal. He said naturally, "Well, this year the Winter Games will be held in Tokyo, and I will try my best."

Nagasawa didn't notice the slight change in the expression on his face. When he heard Midorima's calm tone, he subconsciously felt that the other party had such a posture because of his self-confidence, so he couldn't help but feel full of enthusiasm for the upcoming winter competition. expected.

On the other side, Xiandao inadvertently noticed that something was wrong with Midorima, and after saying goodbye to Nagasawa, he took the initiative to ask Midorima: "Does Midorima have any special ideas about the winter competition?"

Hearing him mention this, Midorima couldn't help but increase his tone, "I will win to the end." He has no other ideas about the Winter Games, his only goal is this, and this is also a task he has to complete.

Xiandao shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly, "Wow, you are as confident as ever—" The other party's arrogant speech is exactly the same as Rukawa and Sakuragi in Xiangbei.

Midorima lowered the corners of her eyes and said nothing, the relaxed mood in her heart that had been caused by fishing with Sendao and eating delicious ramen gradually calmed down.

——No one knows what he has to do, and no one knows what the consequences will be if he can't do it. They all think that he will say this because of his strong self-confidence, but they don't know that he has to be confident unsuccessful.

——The consequences of failure...

The corners of his mouth pressed down to form an indifferent arc.

At this time, Xiandao suddenly patted him on the back hard, so that he was almost not frightened. He suddenly turned his head to look at the other party, and asked Xiandao why he was so excited all of a sudden.

Xiandao laughed cynically, and he patted Midorima on the back again, but this time the strength was much weaker, "Although you are already so confident, it seems a bit bad for me to say that, but I still want to say something——" He There was a smile in his eyes, with a little tenderness, "Don't be too harsh on yourself Midorima, I won't laugh at you even if you lose the game, so don't worry." He couldn't understand the other party With that indifferent look, he couldn't help but make a sound, wanting to break the aloof indifference of the other party who seemed to be isolated from the world at that moment.

Midorima looked at him in a daze, as if he didn't realize what the other party said for a while.

Xiandao continued to walk forward without waiting for him to say anything, the voice was still coming intermittently——

"Hmm... I don't know if we are in class when you are playing? If it is not in class, I will watch your game? It's better to watch the game live... Hey Midorima, you don't mind this, right? ?”

He suddenly turned his head to look at Midorima who was still there, with the usual bright and handsome smile on his face.

Midorima heard him say: "Do you want me to watch your game then?"

He met his gaze and saw the unreserved warmth and light in the other's eyes, which seemed to have dispelled the long-standing depression and anxiety in his heart at once, leaving him with an indescribable peace and tranquility.

He squinted his eyes, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose without showing any emotion, then walked over to meet the other person's gaze, and said lightly as he passed by, "It's up to you."

——Is there anyone going to watch his game... Tsk, he doesn't care about it.

Xiandao was very happy when he heard his answer, because in his opinion, the other party's reaction represented a certain willingness. He strode up to follow Midorima's footsteps, and said with a smile: "Then I will definitely I will go to the lounge to find you, and I don’t know what the player lounge looks like in such a big game..."

Midorima didn't interrupt him, and just let him talk about irrelevant and trivial things on the road. Those small words quickly dissipated in the wind after they passed by, and they were never seen again.

——Just like the negative emotions that once appeared in Midorima's heart, they slowly disappeared in his unstoppable voice without someone noticing.
