It is only with the heart that one can see rightly;

what is essential is invisible to the eye.

You insist on not getting a haircut, which leaves Semi and others who have repeatedly tried to persuade you very confused.

You don't know why you are so resistant to haircuts, but you would rather die of heat.

You remembered the gloomy hairstyle that always covered half of your face in your previous life... Maybe your lack of friends was also related to your hairstyle?

After serving another perfect serve, Ushijima landed heavily, sweat breaking out on his forehead. But looking at you, immobile, he blinked and suddenly had a vision—

a giant eagle, always reliable and independent, observing the movements on the court with its sharp eyes, quickly flying to its teammates with powerful wings.

And now, the eagle is worried about the summer because of its thick feathers.

He blinked again, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he looked at the players gathered there, with a gentle and peaceful expression.

Goshiki behind him was petrified, losing color instantly. The volleyball in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap." His eyes widened at the magical scene in front of him: Ushijima smiled, and you have a rest.

The coldest, hardest person smiled, and the most devilish guy rested.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and stared blankly at the ceiling.

'Sure enough, I'm too hot and tired, and I'm having hallucinations. Hahaha...'

'It was definitely an illusion.'

'Definitely.'

In the hot summer, the cicadas outside the window kept chirping. On the bright and clean campus, inside the tall teaching building, the students in the room were drowsy, and even the teachers giving lectures were a little listless.

The air was filled with a hot atmosphere. The students, with drooping eyelids, looked like they would fall asleep any second. In some spots, there was even a slight snoring sound.

"...please cheer up," Teacher Miyano reminded you for the nth time as you lay on the table in the back row. She sighed, "Please cheer up, everyone. Don't forget that even though summer vacation is coming, there are still final exams."

"If you don't pass the final exam, there will be a make-up exam that is even more challenging."

"If you don't pass the make-up exam, summer vacation will always be a dream."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was another half-dead wailing in the classroom.

You were a student she was quite satisfied with. Not only were you a volleyball star, but you were also among the best in academic performance and homework completion. If it weren't for the fact that your volleyball activities took up so much of your time, she would have wanted to make you a class leader.

At this moment, you were lying on the table dejectedly, with only your hand holding the pen trembling slightly, showing your spirit.

——Time passed quietly as you struggled day by day.

During this period, your team organized several small training matches. In these matches, due to the difference in strength between the two sides, the score differences were often very large.

It was precisely because of these games that the players gradually realized that perhaps the reason why your last ball was so difficult and erratic in the training match with Aoba Johsai that day wasn't just malicious ridicule.
