Kuroko's Basketball: I'm not the boss?

Xiangyang stared at the direction Kise was pointing, his eyelids twitching wildly.

What happened to the promised chaebol heir? This is the kind of place you invite people to dinner? It has no class whatsoever, thumbs down.

Xiangyang secretly grumbled to himself, but his body betrayed him, and he followed Kise inside. Since he was already there, he figured a hamburger was at least a Western meal, so he might as well make do.

In the restaurant

Murasakibara and Midorima had already...

We arrived, and there was a bottle of Coke on the table.

"Hey! Little Purple, Little Green, you're here so early."

Kise greeted them with a grin, Murasakibara was hungry, and Midorima had a personal chauffeur.

Xiangyang followed behind Kise, observing the two of them discreetly.

Coincidentally, he hasn't met either of them in the Generation of Miracles yet. Midorima was eliminated by Jōrin in the preliminaries, and Murasaki was persuaded by Akashi not to play against Kaijō.

The cheerful Kise pulled Xiangyang to sit down and introduced them: "This is Xiangyang, my current teammate and the starting point guard for this year's Kaijo championship! These two are my teammates from Teiko: Midorima Shintaro and Murasakibara Atsushi."

Midorima pushed up his glasses and nodded to Xiangyang in greeting. Murasaki, on the other hand, was lying on the table, looking Xiangyang up and down, and then said lazily, "You seem so weak, why did Akane say I would lose?"

His words were startling, instantly shattering the previously friendly atmosphere.

Xiang Yang's lips twitched, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Maybe... my skill isn't that obvious, ha... ha."

You brat, you should be glad Akashi didn't let you play against me.

Although Xiangyang had some idea of ​​Murasakibara's emotional intelligence, he still didn't expect this guy to be so heavyweight.

Kise sensed something was wrong and was about to say something to change the subject when Aomine and Momoi arrived one after the other.

"Xiangyang-jun is here too!"

Momoi waved as she walked over, and suddenly saw Hikaru sitting next to Kise, and greeted him with delight.

Unlike Momoi's cheerful demeanor, Aomine didn't give Xiangyang a friendly look: "You bastard, this is supposed to be a gathering of miracle workers, why are you here?"

Xiang Yang raised an eyebrow, about to retort, when a voice interrupted their conversation.

"Qingfeng, I sent Xiangyang."

The organizer of this gathering, Seijuro Akashi, finally appeared.

He was wearing a white suit, the material of which was clearly not cheap, and he exuded an aura of authority. However, his demeanor seemed somewhat out of place in this burger joint.

"After all, they are the ones who defeated us. Now, everyone is here."

Akashi spoke with great poise; one would say he's no wonder he's a zaibatsu heir.

However, his words were quite strange.

Xiang Yang glanced around the store and, strangely enough, the usually bustling burger joint was empty except for them.

"Where's Heizi? Hasn't he arrived yet?"

"I'm here."

Surprisingly, Xiang Yang wasn't at all surprised to be frightened this time. He had already vaguely guessed it when he asked Hei Zi, and he had become used to being frightened.

Akashi watched this scene, his eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter.

"Hey, it's rare for everyone to get together like this, how about we play Uno?"

"Agreed."

"This looks interesting! Come and play!"

"I'm so hungry~"

Hey, hey? What kind of weird turn of events is this? Weren't you guys having a party? Playing cards...?

Just as Xiangyang was looking confused, wondering if the problem was with them or with him, Akashi had already dealt the cards.

Akashi added, "The loser gets a sticker on their face."

"Wait a moment!"

Xiang Yang suddenly stood up, feeling very strange about the awkward environment.

"What's wrong, Xiao Xiangyang?"

Kise looked puzzled. He had just seen the cards in his hand, and they were pretty good.

Xiang Yang glanced around the burger joint and asked the question that had been on his mind: "You guys play cards at your gathering? And this is a fast food restaurant... they don't allow card games, right?"

Upon hearing Xiang Yang's question, the Miracle team exchanged glances. After a brief silence, Akashi cleared his throat and replied, "Playing cards during a gathering... is that not normal? Don't worry about the rest. This burger joint is owned by a branch of my family's business. No one will kick us out."

!

Xiangyang suddenly realized, "Right, playing cards at a party seems normal. It's just that they're the Generation of Miracles that I find it abnormal. Thinking about it carefully, although they're all exceptionally talented, they're still high school students." Xiangyang automatically filtered out Akashi's last sentence; as long as he didn't listen to the rich kid, he wouldn't be discouraged. No wonder the usually bustling burger joint only had a few people there today.

"My question... is making a fuss over nothing. Deal me the cards."

"Really?! I lost again!"

Qingfeng looked at the remaining cards in his hand and asked incredulously.

Nearly two hours had passed, and everyone present had some kind of note stuck to their face. Aomine had the most, followed by Murasakibara.

Both of their faces were covered in notes, and Murasakibara was eating with so many notes hanging from his face, making the scene look incredibly bizarre.

"Oops? I accidentally ate the note."

Murasakibara moved his tongue and skillfully spat out a wet strip of paper from his puffed-out cheeks. The sight made Hikari's eyelids twitch, but the others were already used to it.

"Hahahaha, Fengzai is such a loser."

Kise smiled happily. Although he had quite a few notes on his face, thanks to his excellent learning ability, he had already grasped the essentials by playing to this extent.

Hearing Kise's sarcasm, Aomine's forehead creased with a tic-tac-toe expression. He pointed at the other three beside him and asked, "Why is your style completely different from ours? Where are the notes on your faces?"

Xiangyang spread his hands and pouted helplessly. There was nothing he could do. His card skills were so good that he couldn't be stopped. In his previous life, Xiangyang was a master at playing cards. Even so, there were still a few scattered pieces of paper on his face.

On the other side, Midorima pushed up his glasses; the note on his face was similar to the one on Hikaru's face.

"Today's morning divination shows Cancer is the luckiest sign, and their lucky charm for the day is Pepsi. All that has been done is done; now we await the will of Heaven."

The Coke he saw when he entered was actually his lucky charm... That's ridiculous. Xiangyang thought it was a drink he had ordered.

"Your lucky charm seems to be in danger."

Xiangyang said to Midorima with a smile, while pointing with his right hand at Murasakibara, who was eating voraciously.

"...Murasakibara!! Let go of my lucky charm!"

"Huh? Isn't this Coca-Cola?"

……

"By the way, Xiangyang, when I went to your house I saw the Japanese national team playing on TV. Do you want to join the national team?"

As the atmosphere improved, everyone became more relaxed in their conversation. Suddenly, Kise remembered this and casually asked about it.

Xiang Yang hesitated for two seconds before saying, "Because Coach Takeuchi said in an interview that he used to be a member of the national team. I'm curious how he used to play with that physique. As for whether I want to go to the national team... I haven't thought about that yet."

Kise nodded in response, then thought of something interesting and said with a smile, "You watched Coach Takeuchi's interview too? It was hilarious. Just by listening to his voice, you'd think he was a handsome guy."

Xiangyang laughed too. Their coach, Takeuchi, was incredibly cocky during the interview, and he's been even more so lately, practically walking on air. You could even label him.

#Championship Coach

#That wig accident almost ruined his championship dream

#Eastern Division has no rivals and wants to be suppressed

#Thank Him

#precipitation

"Well, we won the championship after all. If we had won, the coach would have been very happy too... Tetsuya, it's a foul to pick up the note while keeping a low profile!"

Akashi placed his hands on his crossed legs and smiled.

The hater who was named silently put down the paper.

The smear smeared back onto his face, and he was arrested by the Eye of Heaven.

"Hey, Little Red, why don't you have any notes on your face?!"

Momoi asked in surprise. Her face was covered with notes, but thankfully her pink hair made her stand out, so her female identity could still be vaguely identified.

Akashi tilted his head slightly, a warm smile on his face: "Because, I am absolute."

Even after his personality changed, this guy is still the same.

"Even though the summer season is over and Kise won, I'm not convinced!"

Aomine crossed his arms, blew the note off his face, glanced around at everyone in the shop, and grinned: "When the Winter Cup comes, I won't hold back. Let me show you the new generation of Touou!"

"That's exactly what I was thinking too."

Midorima pushed up his glasses and said coldly, "He's the only member of the Generation of Miracles to be eliminated in the preliminaries... Oh right, and Kuroko too."

"Hey, how can you say something like that to us, the champions who are about to defend our title?"

Kise put his arm around Xiangyang's shoulder and said with a grin.

"I haven't played many games, and I'm really not convinced."

Murasakibara, who had been eating with his head down, finally spoke up, but his words, spoken with his mouth full of food, were somewhat abstract.

"Steep turn, Xiaochi, oh dear, the coal rescue failed."

Akashi wasn't angry and responded gently, "I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you next time."

"What about Tetsuya? Doesn't he have anything to say?"

Upon hearing this, Kuroko, who was playing a game with the note on his face, was taken aback, then looked up and thought about it seriously for a while.

"Although everyone has changed, I promised Kagami that I would help him become the best in Japan, so I will do my best in the Winter Cup."
