Full-time cartoonist - #166 - Chapter 164 National Champion

Even the TV station started to report it, and Oda covered his face.

The door lock began to ring, and Oda had two beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. His Adam’s apple squirmed as he looked nervously at the door.

Higashino Hibiki pushed open the door and entered, and Oda closed his eyes in despair.

Tanaka was still watching TV, “Hey, there is something like this.”

He belatedly saw the host’s conclusion.

Tanaka then looked at Higashino Hibiki and said hello: “Teacher, it turns out you like Naoko Hime.”

Higashino Hibiki looked at the TV and his face became gloomy.

…

At the end of December, Tunghai University Gymnasium.

Yagami glanced at his teammates, “This is the last game. After defeating the Nippon Sports University basketball team, we will dominate the country!”

His voice became passionate, and everyone nodded and shouted: “Yes!”

Even Hua Chao broke her voice with excitement.

His dream can come true!

Even though my body is sore, this is the time when I have the most fighting spirit!

To the national competition champion! Let’s go!

…

Hibiki Higashino walked out of the studio. He was also very excited at this moment. It was finally time to decide on the national champion.

He has never been to any previous games.

He spent a lot of time thinking about things in comics and refuting rumors.

Fortunately, the most exciting battle is about to come.

When I arrived at the gym, I didn’t recognize Hibiki Higashino, the other invited guest this time, but judging from his physical appearance, he felt like he was a politician who was here to show his face.

He smiled like a flower, shook hands with Hibiki Hibiki humbly, and kept his posture very low, but he talked about all kinds of things, but there was no topic about basketball.

Hibiki Higashino had no interest in golf or skating, so he could only nod his head.

“Tori Akino-sensei!”

Suddenly there was a shout above him, it was the audience entering today.

The other party said excitedly: “Is this what happened between you and Naoko Hime?”

Higashino Hibiki sighed helplessly, raised his hands and crossed them to show no.

“It’s such a pity, but I will always support you! Come on “Slam Dunk”!” he shouted loudly.

Higashino gave him a thumbs up, and then felt that he drank too much water, so he said goodbye to the politician and walked to the bathroom.

On the way. He also shook hands with many readers.

Fortunately, they were polite and didn’t pester me.

When he was approaching the bathroom, he suddenly met the Donghai basketball team.

“Higashino-kun, I will definitely win! Please watch my wonderful performance first!” There were lions and flames in Hua Chao’s eyes.

He was already on fire before the game even started.

“Yes! We will definitely win!” the horse farm shouted.

“After more than four years of hard work, I have finally reached this point!” Ye Shen straightened his back, “I will try my best to burn myself. Even if I turn into ashes, I will not give up!”

Higashino Hibiki watched this scene with numbness. He didn’t know whether he was excited or embarrassed at the moment. Just looking at these enthusiastic teenagers, he felt the charm of youth.

He suddenly discovered that what he was writing was not the content, but the subtle differences in the painting, which lacked such youthful exuberance.

“I will watch it, not for a moment!” Higashikata replied.

He turned around and left, giving a handsome back look in the admiring eyes of the Donghai team.

Halfway there, he suddenly remembered that he hadn’t gone to the toilet yet.

It would be too embarrassing to turn back halfway at this time.

He could only endure it and returned to his seat.

“That’s so fast, Tori Akino-sensei.”

Hibiki nodded awkwardly and smiled.

Not long after, the game officially started.

Both sides stood together and shook hands.

…

An hour later, Hibiki Higashino looked at the Donghai basketball team with blank eyes.

He looked at the scoreboard again, Donghai vs Sports, 56:87.

The score difference is quite big.

Higashikata sighed.

The gap in strength cannot be solved by perseverance.

This year’s Nippon Sports University basketball team is really awesome.

Easily defeated Meiji and crushed the Japanese university basketball team that was the previous champion.

He saw Donghai’s struggle and had the belief that he would not give up until the end, even if it was a slightly unlikely goal, he would still save it.

Donghai has the same fighting spirit as Xiangbei that refuses to admit defeat.

Miracles have been created repeatedly.

But in the end, I still lost.

Yagami and Baba shed tears, while Hua Chao stood there blankly.

The game is over, but Kanda Taketo has not recovered yet.

As if he were in the clouds, stepping on the cotton field, he staggered and knelt on the basketball floor.

The Nippon Sports University basketball team was having a carnival. The players hugged each other and were so happy that they couldn’t control themselves.

The whole audience cheered, giving the champion unlimited glory.

But for the losing team, it would be too cruel.

They seem to be hidden in a corner and no one pays attention to them anymore.

“Tori Akino-sensei! We won the national championship!”

Hibiki Higashino was in a daze when people from the sports basketball team walked over side by side and said excitedly to Hibiki Higashino.

Dongye Xiang was stunned, forced a smile and said: “Congratulations, you guys.”

“Um!”

“I wanted to give up, but “Slam Dunk” gave me faith.” Someone said.

“I like teacher’s comics very much.”

“I have been working hard every day and training continuously, and finally we have reached this moment. Teacher Tori Akino, I am really happy!”

They talked about their feelings and training one after another, with a childish look on their faces, so childish and cute.

Hibiki couldn’t help but reveal a real smile.

He applauds the champion.

“I learned a lot from you, thank you.”

…

After the game, the Tokai basketball team never appeared in front of Hibiki Higashino. He didn’t know if he gave up or worked hard to prepare for the next national competition!

Hibiki didn’t have time to look for them, he was about to pee.

After a hearty moment, he was driven back to the studio by the organizer.

Oda is still here, and to punish him, he was responsible for all the posting sites of “Slam Dunk” for a month.

This is the job Oda hates the most. There is no creativity and he can’t learn anything. Even a layman can still do very well.

But who made him make a mistake? He had no choice but to admit his mistake and get beaten.

“Teacher, how was the result of the game? Did your favorite Donghai basketball team win the championship?”

Seeing that Hibiki seemed to be in a good mood, Oda boldly asked.

“No, they lost, they lost miserably.” Higashikata replied.

“Eh?” This answer was beyond Oda’s expectation, “Then why aren’t you sad?”

“The outcome of the game is beyond people’s control. The sweat left behind by hard work for this game is also a precious treasure.” Higashino Hibiki replied with a smile.

“When I think about the fact that both sides of the game love basketball and “Slam Dunk”, it doesn’t matter to me.”
