And all I do is say sorry,

"Is it time for our training match with Shiratorizawa today?"

Kindaichi crossed his hands and placed them on his chin, sitting on a bench with a serious face, speaking in a low voice.

"Well...what, are you scared?" Yahaba stood in front of him with a smile, one hand on his waist.

"Ha, ha! How is that possible! The last time we lost to Karasuno, it was because Oikawa-senpai happened to be away. This time, I will definitely not lose!" Kindaichi straightened his chest, laughed dryly twice, and spoke confidently.

"Well...even if he is there?" Yahaba acted embarrassed after adding your name and touched his chin.

As expected, Kindaichi, who had been holding his head high, instantly lost color. His shoulders quickly slumped, and he immediately looked dejected.

This look pleased Yahaba very much, and he laughed out loud.

"Okay, stop teasing Kindaichi." A serious voice sounded. Seeing Iwaizumi standing behind him, he stopped laughing and touched his head embarrassedly, "I know."

However, Yahaba's laughter stopped, but Kindaichi's depression seemed to linger.

Iwaizumi crossed his arms and looked at the dejected Kindaichi with a headache. He knew exactly who was the culprit that made Kindaichi feel this way.

——It was obviously you.

He once watched the match between Kitagawa Daiichi and Kosen in private. It could be said that everyone in Kitagawa Daiichi was strong, but the strength of Kosen on the opposite side was not very outstanding.

Although it might be a bit inappropriate, in a sense, it was you alone who beat Kitagawa Daiichi at that time.

He remembered that in that game, you focused only on Kageyama on the opposite side from beginning to end, always with a not very serious smile on your face... ah, this description is very polite.

Frankly speaking, it was like an adult watching a child play a game, which was really quite rude.

And after Kageyama left the court, you didn't hide your surprise, amusement, and boredom. Every ball after that was clean and neat, no longer as tricky as before, as if you had had enough and finally "decided" to end the game.

After the game, you withdrew from the national competition that countless teams dreamed of without any regrets, and made such a statement to the camera...

No wonder Kindaichi was left with a shadow.

Even after watching the video of the game and the interview, he felt a rare sense of powerlessness.

The feeling of being completely despised, not because the opponent was arrogant, but because he couldn't even compete at their level...

'It was really suffocating.'

Yahaba was also a little helpless. He put one hand on his waist: "Hey, sorry, I didn't expect you to react so strongly to his name..."

"And this is just a training match," he tilted his head, trying to boost Kindaichi's confidence.

Kindaichi looked up upon hearing that. Although he nodded, his pale face made it hard to tell if he had truly cheered up.

Iwaizumi stood aside, his voice steady and reliable: "Although it's just a training match, we have to take it seriously..."
