Chapter 121 The Last Shot in the Sky

"Hey, there are so many people, I can't see anything..."

Before Class 18 beat Class 26 by a large margin of 70:49, everyone dispersed early to watch the game next door because the outcome was already obvious.

He Sijiao wanted to wait for Zhou... wait for Zhou Yu and the others to finish the game, and then take a few more glances at Chen Yuan. So when she went over, it was already blocked by five or six layers inside and out.

With her height, she could only hear the sounds.

"Oh well, back to class."

"Forget it, I'm not that interested in basketball games anyway."

Thinking like this, He Sijiao was about to leave when a chair suddenly appeared in front of her.

Turning her head, it was Zhou Yu.

He leaned another chair against it and said rather proudly, "I went off early and switched with someone, and even grabbed two chairs from the bench."

"You're so sneaky." He Sijiao laughed.

Then, the two of them stood on the chairs placed side by side.

The view suddenly became vast.

It was practically a VIP audience seat.

"Squeeze in, squeeze in!"

Suddenly, Tang Jian grabbed Zhou Yu's shoulder and stepped onto the chair as well.

Then, Zhou Yu was pushed over...

The two of their heads even bumped lightly...

The two of them turned their heads awkwardly at the same time, and then this awkward atmosphere escalated!

It was too close, so close that the warm breath they exhaled could be clearly felt.

It was unreasonable for three people to stand on two chairs. So they were like hamburgers, with Tang Jian sticking to Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu sticking to He Sijiao.

"I'd better get down..."

This was too weird.

When He Sijiao made eye contact with Zhou Yu just now, she felt like she was being incredibly stupid. Of course, Zhou Yu was even stupider. This guy could actually squeeze out an awkward smile...

But just as she was about to get down, her smooth long hair flowed past her cheek.

At some point, Tang Siwen also moved a chair over and stood on it, next to her.

She was completely stuck.

"Why is it so crowded, damn it?" Tang Jian complained about his lack of space.

"Okay, then get down." Zhou Yu said.

"It's okay, I can squeeze in."

"Sijiao, you can come a little closer to my side." Tang Siwen said proactively.

"Haha, okay." He Sijiao moved her body slightly to the side, and finally wasn't in close contact with Zhou Yu at zero distance.

"Hehe, give your brother some space too."

However, Tang Jian, this shameless bastard, squeezed Zhou Yu over again.

At this time, He Sijiao finally got angry: "People who moved their own chairs should shrink into a corner, and still want to be comfortable? Stand properly!"

"..."

Tang Jian pursed his lips, nodded, and became honest: "I was wrong, Sister Jiao."

*Puchi.*

Seeing Tang Jian get scolded, Zhou Yu didn't know why he found it so funny. But the next moment, noticing He Sijiao's 'Did you think I wouldn't scold you after scolding him?' look, he immediately restrained his smile.

"Ahem, watch the game, watch the game."

"I heard that Xu Chen tripped Chen Yuan, but Chen Yuan broke his leg instead. Hilarious." Tang Jian said happily.

"What does tripping mean?" He Sijiao asked.

Zhou Yu explained, "It's when someone is shooting and hasn't landed yet, you put your foot where they're going to land, causing them to sprain their ankle. If it's serious, it can strain ligaments and cause ankle fractures... Anyway, it's pretty dirty. You should just beat someone to death if they do that."

"That guy is so disgusting." He Sijiao didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, and was quite disgusted with Xu Chen.

The injury on Zhou Yu's face seemed to be caused by him...

"It's really a moral decline." Tang Siwen also echoed.

"But seeing this, I can kind of understand why he hates Chen Yuan so much."

Tang Jian looked at the basketball leader of Class 15 like he was a monster, and couldn't help but praise him: "Chen Yuan is awesome, taking a few liberal arts students and a girl, and almost overturning Class 26, which is almost all the school team. He's really fierce, almost fifty points, right?"

"Damn it, this bastard..."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was numb. He cursed in pain, "No wonder I felt like he was lazy when I played basketball with him before, just standing under the basket, taking the rebounds that fell into his hands, and not caring if he couldn't get them, his emotions as stable as a capybara... I didn't expect this bastard to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger for a year, just to show off like this today? He's really strong!"

"Indeed, Chen Yuan is indeed despicable, treacherous, a beast in human clothing, and difficult to call a human."

He Sijiao wasn't talking about basketball, but she could relate to Zhou Yu.

"Indeed, this kind of guy is the embodiment of evil in the world, the opposite of truth, goodness, and beauty, and an unorthodox demon."

"If someone could take care of him, that would be great."

"I'm really looking forward to that day. I've been thinking about this for a long time."

"..."

Seeing these two cursing together for some reason, Tang Jian couldn't help but remind them, "Yu Zi, you want to beat Class 26, right?"

"........."

Suddenly realizing something, Zhou Yu was struck by a sudden realization, and then immediately changed his face like in a Sichuan opera: "Brother Yuan, go for it! Crush these *kun kun*!"

"Ah, what a face."

………

"As expected, everyone has a brain after Li Yuanzhen came on."

Sun Xin was in the same position as Li Yuanzhen, both were members of the school team. It seemed that the other party was his substitute, but in reality, he was the trump card.

Only by defeating me can you meet him!

And after this trump card came on, it could be seen that the temperament of Class 26 was different.

The most obvious example was that Chen Yuan's dribbling wasn't very good to begin with. Even if his basketball IQ was strong and he could predict the opponent's movements, the ball couldn't be one with him to make corresponding changes. So facing a player like Li Yuanzhen, the pressure was enormous.

Under Li Yuanzhen's pressure, Chen Yuan even made a mistake and lost the ball.

Although Hu Siqi rushed out in time to save the ball and then passed it to Chen Yuan, allowing him to break free from the defense and score two points, Chen Yuan's invincible aura was broken on the surface.

"It should still be because he twisted his ankle, Chen Yuan doesn't dare to make big moves."

"Yeah, he's much slower than before."

"Brother Zhen is still at full stamina, the immediate combat power of the two sides can't be compared now."

"Although that's what they say..."

Watching Chen Yuan still frequently make three-pointers, a basketball-playing boy said uneasily, "Seven shots out of four, including three three-pointers, is still terrifying."

"But Li Yuanzhen also has seven out of ten, including five three-pointers, although the three extra offensive rounds were Zhang Hanlin's offensive rebounds..."

Li Yuanzhen, at full stamina, didn't have a much better shooting percentage than Chen Yuan, but he relied on his teammates to get rebounds, so even if he missed, he could quickly recover.

Almost every offensive round resulted in a score.

With Li Yuanzhen's tactics, the situation on the field changed greatly.

And everyone began to switch from cheering for the "sportsmanship" of Class 26 to hoping that Li Yuanzhen would also score a heroic shot and catch up with the score.

A close match is more exciting!

Moreover, the close match at the last moment was so wonderful, comparable to a World Cup penalty shootout, back and forth, and you couldn't let go of your hanging heart until the end.

Awesome!

No, teammates must play a role, otherwise it will really be impossible to win.

Chen Yuan felt tired.

80:75.

There were only 36 seconds left on the clock.

I don't know whose idea it was, probably the school leaders, seeing that this game was too popular, they even moved the large timer directly from the indoor stadium, for accurate timing.

The referee was also suddenly replaced by a professional teacher.

There were even more cameras.

Damn it, it's not that Chen Yuan doesn't like to show off, but after it became more professional, the timing also became more accurate.

Originally, the timer started when the ball was served, because it was just a class game after all, and the referees pressed it casually. But now, the timer was stopped the moment the ball went in. It only started timing from when the ball was served until the moment it was caught.

It was fairer.

But I'm the one who needs to stall for time...

Now I can't even coast by anymore.

Moreover, the ball was still in the opponent's hands.

"One more three-pointer, and there will only be two points left."

Without looking at the ball, Li Yuanzhen dribbled skillfully between his legs, not forgetting to put pressure on Chen Yuan before the offense.

[His left foot is sprained and he's moving slowly]

[Although it's immoral, even if he guesses that I'm breaking through to the right, his left foot won't be able to keep up with my speed]

[And, it's not necessarily the right side]

The center of gravity of the dribbling became lower and lower, but the trajectory of the ball became smoother, like a swimming dragon in his hands, elegant and natural.

After a probing step with his right foot, Chen Yuan could only retreat to keep up. As a result, Li Yuanzhen really broke through to the right, and he was forced to continue to follow, but the next moment, Li Yuanzhen temporarily changed his mind – a feint.

Then, a behind-the-back dribble instantly created half a body's worth of space.

Then, he jumped up and shot directly!

But this Chen Yuan guy was like a grim reaper, even though he was pulled away, he could still jump up, and a big hand covered the sky.

Could he make it?

No, he's already defended well.

The hit rate was about 35%.

So, a fake shot and a real pass!

In the air, he used his core strength to fold his body, changing from a shooting posture to a slanted pass under his legs to a teammate on the left wing.

Chen Yuan had no choice.

How could I not know that you were going to pass the ball?

But if I didn't jump up to interfere, this guy would have shot directly.

Even with mind-reading, its effect is limited in the face of strong basketball IQ.

"47, foul!" Chen Yuan remembered that the left wing was 47, the weak link that allowed Class 26 to score repeatedly, so he quickly reminded her.

Li Yuanzhen was a true egalitarian.

Even when facing 47, he treated her as a true opponent.

Therefore, he didn't feel ashamed to 'train' a girl like 47.

What a creep!

"Don't let her foul, give it to me!"

Li Yuanzhen quickly ran over, took the ball into his own hands, and prepared to shoot a three-pointer.

If Chen Yuan made a tactical foul at this time, and his teammate shot the ball inside the three-point line, there would only be two free throws.

Moreover, his teammate's stamina was already exhausted, and they might not be able to make both free throws.

Even if he was going to be fouled, it had to be by a more accurate shooter like himself, shooting from outside the three-point line.

At this time, 47 was like a little ghost, reaching out to grab him.

As she was about to touch him, Li Yuanzhen turned around like a waltz, causing 47, who wanted to pull him, to miss.

When he realized it, he had already jumped up.

He had to foul!

47 kept Chen Yuan's instructions in mind, and jumped up with him, using her hand to grab his hand...

And in the air, Li Yuanzhen's mouth curled into a smile.

"47, don't!"

Chen Yuan quickly reminded her, but it was too late.

As he shot, the whistle for 47's reaching foul sounded.

It was a three-point foul.

And to make matters worse, the fouled ball swished through the net.

"Damn, 3+1. Li Yuanzhen, you're bullying 47 even harder, aren't you?!"

Sun Xin was numb when he saw this scene.

This kid was fishing.

It wasn't enough to score on 47's head, he had to take so much at once!

"..." Stunned in place, Hu Siqi felt very guilty, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, there's still time."

Chen Yuan went over and patted her on the shoulder, calmly comforting her, "You interfered well, this kid is playing a lucky ball, playing the game with his life."

"That's too much, saying that about me..."

Li Yuanzhen, who heard Chen Yuan say this while taking the free throw, also felt a little wronged.

Psychologically, he was unwilling.

47 was a girl after all.

But this was the only way to turn passivity into initiative.

After patting the ball for a while, Li Yuanzhen easily shot the ball in.

At this moment, the score was 80:79.

Only one point away!

And...

"Exactly the last 24 seconds..."

Looking at the numbers on the scoreboard, Lao Mo became nervous.

"Teacher Mo, what does this mean?" Zhou Lanlan asked in confusion.

"24 seconds of attack time, enough to complete the final attack. Chen Yuan will definitely stall for time and shoot at the last moment."

"Then even if Chen Yuan makes it or not, the game will be over, right?" Zhou Lanlan thought the situation was still optimistic.

"But if Chen Yuan doesn't shoot, they will foul, and even if Chen Yuan makes both free throws, Class 26 will have a chance to score a three-pointer on the last attack. Finally, it will go into overtime."

"In overtime, everyone's stamina will be gone, we will definitely lose, right." Cheng Haiying also understood something and explained for Lao Mo.

"And most importantly..."

Lao Mo observed Chen Yuan, whose legs and feet were obviously not free, and said, "The last ball may require multiple double teams. Chen Yuan will find it difficult to even get the ball, let alone shoot."

Just then, Li Yuanzhen raised his hand and called a timeout.

This was very strange, because this timeout should be called by the attacking side.

"This bastard feels like he's going to formulate a tactic..." Zhou Yu clenched his fists nervously.

"Yeah, they probably want to foul and then tie with a three-pointer." Tang Jian nodded in agreement, "The results are nothing more than, Chen Yuan makes both free throws, they tie with a three-pointer. Chen Yuan makes one free throw, they win with a three-pointer, tie with a two-pointer. And Chen Yuan makes zero, they win. And, regardless of whether Chen Yuan makes it or not, their game-winning shot fails, and the game ends."

Judging from the score, the situation for Class 15 was great.

After all, they were leading and had possession of the ball.

But from the perspective of the situation, it was terrible.

Because they had a 13-point lead at the beginning of the last quarter.

At this moment, the audience in the entire stadium, even the entire school, were sweating nervously.

This game was too good.

"It's too thrilling, that three-plus-one was really heartbreaking."

"Now it looks like the situation has shifted to Class 26's side."

"Then cheer for Class 15!"

"Classic bandwagon fan, right?"

"Chen Yuan! Game-winner! I want to see a game-winning shot!"
