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

Chapter 149: Poaching Kise’s corner? ?

Flower grower, inside a medium-sized supermarket
"Cucumber, steak, diet Coke, corn, onion..."

Lingzi counted the items in the shopping cart while counting her fingers. After looking at them one by one, she said to Xiangyang with a speechless face: "I'm talking about you, are you because of the life that the Basketball Association has given you?" Living expenses are reimbursed, so you have no scruples in spending?"

At this time, Xiang Yang, who was holding a pack of "Japanese Ramen" in his hand, turned to look at the shopping cart and wondered: "What's wrong, I didn't buy anything excessive, right? Aren't they all just food?" ?”

Facing Xiangyang's answer, Lingzi's head was full of black lines. She pointed to the two onions in the shopping cart and said: "It's okay to buy food, but what do you want to buy ingredients? There is no Masako here to cook for you, or Do you think you can do it yourself?"

It's not that Lingzi looks down on Xiang Yang, but for players like them, most of their time is spent on basketball, so many players' life skills are close to zero.

So this is ah!

Xiang Yang suddenly realized what he was thinking, and replied with a relaxed look: "It doesn't matter, you are here, Miss Lingzi."

"With me...huh?"

Lingzi raised his finger and pointed at himself, with a look of disbelief on his face: "You kid, do you want me to cook for you??"

"Ok!"

Xiang Yang looked matter-of-fact. Although he knew how to do it to some extent, if someone could do it for him, why did he have to do it himself?

Seeing Lingzi's expression of "Haha, you're kidding", Xiangyang raised his hand and touched his chin, thinking thoughtfully: "I remember that Brother Shu seemed to tell you, don't make me eat takeout all the time, and cook more when you have nothing to do." Give it to me to eat...right?"

After saying this, Xiang Yang nuzzled his chin towards Lingzi, as if he had really forgotten and was asking her.

"You! You! How do you know? Don't you understand the flower language?"

Lingzi's face was full of shock, and he almost spilled the milk tea in his hand.

Seeing the chaotic appearance of this special reporter at this moment, Xiang Yang smiled hoarsely and decided to add fuel to the fire!

"I only know a little bit. Unfortunately, what Brother Shu said happened to be the part I know."

As he spoke, Xiangyang walked up to Lingzi, slowly leaned over to her ear, and whispered: "Miss Lingzi, you don't want Brother Shu to know that you didn't follow his instructions, right?"

“…**”

A familiar quintessence of flower gardening came out, and Lingzi patted Xiang Yang's shoulder angrily. For some reason, as long as she stayed with this guy, she couldn't maintain her image of a lady for more than half a day!
Xiang Yang chuckled, and continued to move forward with his hands behind his back, looking for products in the supermarket that aroused his desire to shop. Anyway, the Basketball Association would reimburse him, so if he didn't buy it, it would be for nothing.

Behind him, Lingzi was pushing the shopping cart and watching Xiang Yang wandering around picking out products. She couldn't help but ask, "Why do you feel like you are in a good mood? Didn't you lose the training match?"

Hearing this, Xiang Yang turned his head and met Lingzi's confused gaze.

Just now, in the National Youth Team's five-on-five trial, at 83:81, Xiao Gao successfully hit the last attack and defeated Xiangyang's family!

"Are you the type who doesn't have a strong desire to win or lose?"

Lingzi tilted her head slightly and looked at the expression on Xiang Yang's face. She thought that no matter what happened, Xiang Yang would be somewhat disappointed.

"Hmm... If I have a desire to win, it's okay. I'm not the kind of character who insists on winning. It's just that losing is inevitable. Although I do feel a little unhappy, I'm totally fine with it."

Xiang Yang shrugged, could an insignificant training match affect his heart?He is not so small-minded yet.

Lingzi looked at Xiang Yang's expression and after confirming that he was not lying, he asked a new question: "When you played the training match, you didn't seem to be very serious, Mr. Xiang Yang?"

Seeing Xiang Yang's gaze, Lingzi continued: "Because look, for example, the thing with the electric light in its eyes is called "zone"? I didn't see you using it. And there were only a few seconds left at that time. At that time, you had a chance to score, but you chose to pass the ball."

"Huh? Is it so obvious?"

Xiang Yang was surprised. He thought for a while and then said: "If I use my full strength, they won't be able to come back. It's just a training match. You can make everyone happy with a little care. Why not?" Woolen cloth?"

"Besides, I've got what I want. That Hai Lao should have recognized me, right? So, winning or losing a training match doesn't matter."

After saying this, Xiang Yang pretended to spread his hands, looking very generous.

As expected, his actions received a big eye roll from Lingzi.

She finally knows now why Masako has been rolling her eyes more and more frequently recently. Her feelings have been cultivated into a habitual action by Xiangyang.

"You are really arrogant, Mr. Xiangyang, according to your words, if you are just a little more serious, will the several good prospects in the National Youth Team be able to do anything to you?"

Lingzi asked half jokingly and half seriously. She was very curious about the level of the current National Youth Team of the Flower Planter in Xiang Yang's eyes.

"Well...it's really hard to answer this question."

Xiangyang pondered for a while and said, "You are right."

Lingzi:…

You call this a difficult answer?I see you answered very decisively!
Before Lingzi could complain, Xiang Yang spoke first: "Most of the people in the current national youth team are qualified in the field of professional players, but that's all. In the international arena, various national basketball teams Young leaders will appear, and with the current team, I am not optimistic that the Flower Planters will be able to achieve a good ranking in the triennial Basketball World Championship."

Lingzi nodded in understanding and asked, "Even with you and Gao Tianwei, wouldn't it work?"

(Gao Tianwei = Xiao Gao)

In Lingzi's opinion, someone as big as Xiao Gao is definitely considered to be extremely talented!Coupled with the fact that Xiang Yang is a treasure in the point guard class that everyone has said about him, the Flower Planters men's basketball team in the next few years should be the most promising class!
"Xiao Gao's strength is indeed good, but the problem I'm talking about refers to the entire team."

Xiangyang stood in the fruit area picking bananas while answering Lingzi's question: "It is undeniable that with our current strength and development in the next three or four years, it will not be difficult to play something in the international arena. As long as Hai Lao... His apprentice, the current head coach of the Flower Planters Men’s Basketball Team, is not mediocre. This team can definitely shine in the international arena..."

"Then why did you say..."

Lingzi's lips moved slightly and he was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xiang Yang. He pointed at Lingzi with a banana in his right hand and said slowly: "When I say a good ranking, I mean the championship. I don't want to, just Just showing my face in the international arena will end my career hastily."

Lingzi was stunned. She looked at Xiang Yang who was holding a banana in front of her with a serious face. It was obviously a scene worthy of being called funny, but for some reason, it deeply shocked Lingzi's soul.

"You guys...are really arrogant."

Lingzi took a deep breath, lowered her head to straighten her clothes, and then raised her head again. Her eyes were filled with fire!

"Tell me, what type of players are the current flower growers still lacking? As long as you tell me your requirements, I will search all over the world and dig them out for you!"

Lingzi's tone was very firm, and her eyes met Xiangyang's eyes. You know, she is not just a pretty vase.

A special reporter for the Basketball News and an overseas scout assigned by a flower grower!

Although Xiang Yang is the only one who has commendable achievements so far, this does not hinder Lingzi's determination to contribute to the basketball industry of the flower family!
This time it was Xiang Yang's turn to be confused. He couldn't laugh or cry as he watched Lingzi roll up his sleeves, as if he was about to go abroad for a big fight. He quickly lowered his hand to signal Lingzi not to be so excited.

"In terms of players... we still lack a striker who is strong in athletic ability and can complete sports battles and attack the basket. It is best to have some defensive capabilities..."

Xiang Yang rubbed his chin and expressed his expectations for the future team: "Because Xiao Gao is too big. If he drags such a big body and is active on the offensive and defensive ends at the same time, his physical strength will not be able to keep up." Yes, and we really need someone who can score at critical moments. It just so happens that this kind of work is usually done by the forwards."

As soon as these words came out, Lingzi's mind was moved. She turned to look at Xiangyang, her tone trembling.

"What do you think...how about I dig Kise Ryota over?"

Xiang Yang: "Huh?"

……

……

"No."

"Why? Isn't Kise your good buddy? Wouldn't it be nice to bring him over to play brother basketball at the flower gardener's house?"

"No! Give up on this idea. If you have the heart to think about these things, why not discover a few more talented strikers in the local area."

On the street, Xiang Yang was carrying the things he had just bought from the supermarket and started a fierce argument with Lingzi beside him!

The topic of dispute between the two is: poaching Ryota Kise to the flower garden!
Seeing that Xiang Yang's attitude was very resolute, Lingzi put her hands on her hips and bulged her mouth in anger, but a wave of doubt arose in her heart.

If Kise can really be brought to the flower garden, shouldn't it be a good thing for Xiang Yang?

Could it be that...Haichang Gemini is actually not harmonious in the mainland!The pictures of the two being brothers on the basketball court were all for the media to see!
Thinking of this, Lingzi's expression changed, and an 8000-word essay once again appeared in his mind...

"Stop, I don't know what you are thinking right now, but I can swear on the banana in my hand that it must be a stupid idea."

Xiang Yang interrupted Lingzi's random thoughts while peeling the banana in his hand.

"Then tell me why!"

Ling Zi was a little upset, she followed closely behind Xiang Yang, staring at Xiang Yang with her beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to ask for an explanation.

Xiang Yang was silent.

If he asked Kise in person, then the brat would probably agree...

Xiang Yang understands Kise so well that he doesn't even know Kise as much as he knows himself.

If Kise comes to the flower garden, not only will the future performance of the team be guaranteed, but even the vow the two made to play together can be realized in another way!

It's just that we changed from staying with the Neon National Team to staying with the Flower Planting National Team. It doesn't sound like a big problem...

Weird.

Xiang Yang knows very well how much courage it takes for a player to abandon his nationality and go to another country to work hard. What's more, this player is still so talented that he will definitely have a bright future if he stays in his hometown.

Under this premise, help persuade Kise to come to the flower garden?Xiang Yang would never do such a thing.

Even Xiang Yang felt a little uncomfortable coming to the flower gardener when he was mentally prepared. Even a time traveler like him was like this. As a native, how panicked could Kise be?

"Anyway, don't keep thinking about poaching. Forget about the Neon misunderstanding. Are you still thinking about bringing people from the Generation of Miracles over? You are really not afraid of being silenced by the Neon Gang!"

Xiang Yang stuffed the last banana into his mouth and glanced at Lingzi angrily.

The latter is still a little dissatisfied, but her tone has softened a lot: "I... I'm not thinking about helping the flower grower's basketball career! And with Miss Masako here, how can the Neon Gang touch me?"

Xiang Yang:…

This girl is really right.

"It's a good thing that you are motivated, but you are using it in the wrong place. Focus more on the inspection of young players. If there are a few more players like Xiao Gao and Xiao Wang, the effect will not necessarily be worse than Kise."

At the end of the day, Xiang Yang himself was a little unconfident. Of course he knew that a player like Kise could help a team more than just a few championship puzzle pieces.

Lingzi snorted noncommittally. On the surface, he agreed to Xiang Yang's words, but in his heart, he had his own plans...

……

……

On the other side, the national competition qualifiers for the Neon Tokyo Division have officially begun!
The four divisions started the first round of qualifiers on the same day. However, it was said that it was a qualifier, but the promotion spots seemed to have been allocated...

West District, Haichang High School, East District, Luoshan High School, South District, and Yangquan High School all scored astonishingly high scores on the first day of qualifying, eliminating three unlucky ones.

However, everyone took this matter of course. Even the Basketball Weekly newspaper only briefly described the performance of these three teams. For them, if these three teams cannot enter, it will be official. Game, that’s big news!
In the qualifiers, the only division that has suspense and highlights is the North Division.

Winter Cup runner-up, Jorin High School!

Winter Cup quarterfinals, Xiude High School!
Winter Cup quarterfinals, Tonghuang High School!

The team with three Generation of Miracle players has firmly occupied the three promotion spots in the North Division.

And on their next batch.

Two of the three former kings, Masahiro High School and Izumi Shinkan, plus the new dark horse joined by the "evil boy" Hanamiya, who was one of the five crowns and five generals, Kirisaki is the number one!

It's a pity... Under the light of three miracle teams, they are more like running along...

"Competition in the Tokyo North Division is still fierce. Compared with the leading teams in other divisions, there are many teams in the North Division that hope to advance! However, whether they are strong or dark horses, if they want to get the promotion spot in the North Division , maybe you have to pray to God...let's meet those three monsters before the round robin! Otherwise, all the teams in the North District will just follow them!"

A well-known neon basketball blogger tweeted, and his content was liked by a large number of basketball fans.

This is the current situation in the North District. Miracles are everywhere, and the five generals are not as good as dogs!
The Wild North lives up to its name!
At the same time, through Masako's news channel, Xiang Yang also learned that the national competition has begun. He needs to complete the trial training of the flower grower as soon as possible, return to Haichang, and participate in the official competition!

"No problem... There is no team that can threaten us in the qualifying stage. Even if there is, with Ryouta here, there will be no problem."

Xiang Yang held the Neon Basketball Weekly newspaper in his hand and murmured.

At this moment, he had just completed the physical fitness test conducted by the Huazhuangjia coaching team.

Name: Xiangyang

Height: 183 (predicted bone age growth: 187)

Weaknesses: The static talent is average, and subsequent performance may be weak!

ps: The above data are all based on the average level of professional defenders of the same age group!

The above is the data obtained by the Flower Planter coaching team after completing a series of tests and inspections for Xiangyang!

Although to some extent, Xiang Yang still has some flaws, no player is perfect. Judging from the strength that Xiang Yang has shown so far, it is already worthy of the Flower Garden Basketball Association to place a bet on him!
"After doing this, I should have completed the flower grower's test, right?"

In the basketball gym, Xiang Yang held the report and asked Ebi with a playful look on his face.

Facing Xiang Yang's teasing, Hai Lao showed an unprecedented smile. When he looked at Xiang Yang's face, his expression became more and more kind.

In the corner of the arena, Qin Mimi looked at the two chatting Lingzi, and was amazed. This was the first time she saw that kind of expression on the stubborn old man's face.

"Of course, Xiangyang, but there is one more important thing before that."

Hai Lao picked up the crutch in his hand, knocked on the ground, and looked at Xiang Yang with an expression that gradually became serious.

"Are you willing to change your nationality when you become an adult, join the Flower Planters, and fight for the Flower Planters national team?"

National team of flower growers?Does this guarantee me my future place on the team?

Xiang Yang smiled hoarsely. Facing the solemn expression of Ebi, he took a slow breath and stroked his abdomen with his right hand, bowing like an elegant gentleman.

"Of course, head coach Mr. Ebi, this is my honor."
