Full-time cartoonist - #139 - Chapter 138 Going Home

Tokai University Basketball Stadium, Japan.

During the summer vacation in July, the Tokai basketball team was training. The loss to Meiji University left a big shadow on them, so they worked harder to practice basketball.

All the students at Tunghai University have gone home, but the sound of “bang bang” basketballs is being heard in the basketball hall.

The floor was soaked with sweat, and the only way to prevent slipping and spraining an ankle was to take a short break. The manager of the basketball team wastes no time cleaning.

“It’s really hot today.”

Kyoko Akagi walked in from outside the venue, holding mineral water in her hand.

Because of the hot weather, she tied her hair back in a ball and trembled as she walked, making her look a little cuter and more girlish.

“Thank you, Akagi.”

The horse farm took out a bottle of mineral water, his Adam’s apple twitching up and down, and he drank it all in one gulp, “Ah, it feels so good.”

“You’re welcome.” Akagi Kyoko waved her hand.

Several other members of the basketball team came over to get water.

Point guard Tian Bei pinched the mineral water and was suddenly startled. He laughed and joked to Akagi Kyoko, “Come to think of it, Akagi’s name is similar to the heroine of “Slam Dunk”.”

Shooting guard Kobayashi held his chin and thought, “Kyoko Akagi, Haruko Akagi… they are indeed very similar.”

Kyoko Akagi covered her mouth and snickered. Others could never guess that she was the prototype of a character.

If Hua Chao didn’t let her say it, she really wanted to show off.

Everyone present, including the basketball manager, are all fans of Mirai Tori Akino, and their eyes will be red with envy.

Kyoko Akagi’s heart swelled, but what they said later made Kyoko Akagi’s face darken.

Power forward Baba said: “The personalities are also very similar.”

Small forward Yagami nodded: “She’s a nympho.”

Kyoko Akagi was angry, “You actually look at me like this, so don’t drink the water bought by this nymphomaniac like me.”

She pouted and raised her hand to take back the mineral water.

“Haha, sorry, sorry.” After Ba Chang dodged, he laughed and apologized.

He had wanted to say this for a long time. Who told these two guys to let him eat dog food all the time?

Baba opened his mouth and drank a bottle of water. He shook the empty water bottle to indicate that it was gone.

“Hmph!” Akagi Xiangzi stamped his feet, “I will never buy you water again.”

Others rushed to apologize.

Yagami changed the subject, “Speaking of “Slam Dunk”, the ending of the friendly match between Lingnan and Shohoku was such a pity.”

Xiao Lin understood, “Yeah, I didn’t expect that a small mistake would be turned around by Xiandao.”

Xiandao is undoubtedly the strongest among the characters who appeared in “Slam Dunk”. Lingnan’s victory was all because of Xiandao.

The careless Immortal is very much like a big devil, a powerful and fun-loving boss.

Tian Bei sighed faintly: “Lingnan is a formidable opponent… just like Meiji University…”

They thought about their own game again, and they felt the same way about losing to their opponent.

The basketball hall became quiet, and everyone lowered their heads and fell silent.

“Pass the ball!”

“Quick pass!”

“I always feel like there are still five seconds…”

This was Sakuragi Hanamichi’s unwilling roar after the game. He felt the sadness of losing the game and regretted not trying his best at the last moment.

The Donghai Basketball Team has the same idea as Sakuragi.

It would be great if the game could continue a little longer. If you try your best, you might win…

Hua Chao, who had been silent all this time, put down the empty mineral water bottle, picked up a basketball with one hand, and stood aside to practice dribbling.

As the captain, Yagami glanced at him and said to the other members: “Although we are not willing to accept it, we lost and the game is over long ago. Remember your current mood and work hard.”

He turned around, snatched Hua Chao’s basketball, ran toward the basket, and finally slammed it into the basket.

Hua Chao:? ? ?

“Yes!” said the horse farm loudly.

“I never want to lose again!”

“I will work hard!”

“Become number one in Tokyo!”

At this moment, their eyes are burning with fire.

Kyoko Akagi looked at this scene in shock. Now that she is a college student, she is still a middle school student like a junior high school student. Boys are really childish.

Until she saw Hua Chao and said loudly: “I want to become the rebounding king!”

Suddenly changing their tune, they are indeed hot-blooded men.

…

The stage of “Slam Dunk” ended, and Hibiki Higashino got on the bus.

He had just gotten off the tram and was walking home.

There were not many people on the bus. The sun was in the middle of the day and it was the hottest time of the day. People who didn’t have to go to work were sitting at home blowing fans and air conditioners.

There were only a few children, and they were holding storage boxes hanging from net bags around their waists. There were also a few unicorns in them. They had a lot of harvest, and they looked like they were going to the park.

But now he was dozing off tiredly.

Only children have the energy to have fun in the summer.

Seeing this scene, Hibiki Higashi felt better and felt that the heat had dissipated.

When he got off the bus at the bus stop near his home, Hibiki regretted it.

Sure enough, it’s still cool on the bus.

He felt like the asphalt was melting.

Was Tokyo so hot in 1996?

Higashino Hibiki wanted to go to the countryside to escape the summer heat, but considering that he still had to draw comics, he could only shake his head.

The work in this line of work is too hard and there is no time to spare unless I become Yoshihiro Togashi.

“What is Togashi-sensei doing now?”

Looking up at the bright sun, Hibiki suddenly thought.

Togashi at this time…

“Hahaha, summer is here, you should definitely go skiing, hahaha!”

Wrapped in a coat and having fun at the indoor ski resort in Tokyo, Yoshihiro Togashi laughed heartily.

“That’s how it should be.”

…

Dongye came to the door of his house and wanted to go in immediately to enjoy the cool air, but he saw the housewives calmly chatting at the door of their house.

Higashi Yexi chatted with Mrs. Yuanye next door, covered her mouth and squinted her eyes while laughing, but she didn’t notice Higashino Hibiki coming back.

She seemed to be getting older, with more wrinkles on her face, but she was still the same as before, with a gentle smile.

“Your kids are so awesome!” Mrs. Yuanye said flatteringly: “That was Xiao Dongye who was on the live TV broadcast that day, right? He actually started learning Go. Although he only beat a kid, it would be great if he could do it live on TV. It’s amazing! How did you teach it?”

Dong Yexi didn’t understand how powerful this was, but he just felt that his son was very powerful.

“Dongye has always been very mature. He suddenly became talented without anyone taking care of him. I don’t have any sense of accomplishment at all.”

Mrs. Yuanye waved her hand, “Look what you said.”

“Xiao Yuanye entered a law firm as an intern,” Higashino Shiori responded. “In the future, he will become a well-known barrister. It is really enviable.”

“Hahahaha.” Mrs. Yuanye laughed heartily.

The two of them, because of their sons, are quite famous in the neighborhood autonomous committee.

After all, as a housewife, in addition to her husband’s social status, she also has her children’s education.

The more highly educated children can be taught, the more they will be admired by other housewives. They also hope to learn some lessons and teach a second high-achieving student.

Dong Yexi felt like a spring breeze, she felt younger again, and her life was getting happier day by day.

She was doing her daily entertainment activities. She looked at Higashino Hibiki, who was sweating on his forehead. She waved her hand and stopped talking. She took small steps to Higashino Hibiki’s side.

Mrs. Harano was very envious when she saw Higashi Hibiki come back. Although her son was successful, he was so busy at the law firm that he had no time to rest, let alone go home.

She said goodbye wisely and went back home.

Dong Yexi complained with a smile on his face: “Really, don’t say anything when you come back, so I can prepare iced mung bean porridge for you.”

“What are you ready for? I bought a watermelon.” Dong Yexiang held up the watermelon in his net bag. He bought it from a nearby supermarket after getting off the bus. A watermelon weighing less than ten kilograms cost him more than 10,000 yuan. Yen, it’s ridiculously expensive.

Dong Yexi looked at it and shook his head, “Why are you buying this? Why don’t you just go to the farmers in the countryside and buy it.”

In Japan, because of the agricultural cooperative, the prices of vegetables and fruits are very high.

Farmers can only go through the channels of agricultural cooperatives and cannot sell their own goods freely.

Some farmers will violate the agricultural cooperative and set up stalls to sell, but it is rare.

It would be a good choice to buy directly from the fields in the countryside.

“You can also escape the heat by the way.” Dongyexi looked at Dongyexiang expectantly.

Dong Yexiang fell silent, and said in Dong Yexi’s dim eyes: “I still have to work.”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

Higashino Hibiki walked into the kitchen first, cut the watermelon into pieces and froze it in the refrigerator.

Then I took a shower, changed my clothes, and finally came back to life feeling refreshed.
