Chapter 004: Evidence of Causality

Remember what you said

However

However, what Hao Yun did not expect was that when he laid out the pros and cons of the matter, Liang Ziyuan's gaze towards him suddenly changed

It would be wonderful if one could retain memories of a past life

As if

In order to achieve four years of harmonious dormitory life ... ... is this reason not acceptable?

Liang Ziyuan retorted: "Do you really know?"

You are welcome

Everyone is waiting to see his joke

Then, he expressionlessly curled his finger.

Outside the basketball court, there was an instant silence

It is easy to suspect that this guy is using cheats

But what does this have to do with the class monitor

Why is it that after becoming the class monitor, I no longer have time to pursue my own dreams

He glanced at the valve core and let out a long sigh

Noticing the change in Hao Yun's gaze, Liang Ziyuan slightly raised his chin, indicating that he had heard it

Swish!

At this distance, there are probably not many players on the school team who can make the shot

No, I am not here to play ball

Forget it, it won't go in anyway

Liang Ziyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?"

It was almost as if she stepped on the last word that fell from his mouth

Glancing at his seated roommate, Liang Ziyuan said coolly

It is evident that very few people believe he will succeed

I also want to know

A few boys who could play basketball found themselves in a debate about whether one can generalize about people. Nearby, several senior girls who could not play basketball also rarely turned their attention to the "bystander" who was standing near the midline.

Ah, ah, ah, go for it, my idol!

I have always despised those who go back on their word

I will speak after I win

Of course, I... I had a friend who once served as the class monitor, " Hao Yun nodded and continued sincerely, " The class monitor in university is equivalent to the homeroom teacher in high school, essentially doing all the thankless tasks.

Indeed! My brother Ziyuan is the best

That gaze seemed to be asking, what do you want to say

What is House of Cards

Get up

If you can enter, I will agree to you

Upon hearing this statement, Liang Ziyuan's expression showed some surprise, and the cola at the corner of his mouth was involuntarily moved away.

Why throw it so far? Is he trying to show off?

This handsome and sunny smile indeed easily evokes a sense of goodwill, and Hao Yun caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that several senior female students by the side of the court seemed even more excited

Liang Ziyuan! I love you!

Roll, roll, roll, when did it become yours? Do you have their WeChat? What a face!

I heard that this guy was the captain of the basketball team back in high school, and he was exceptionally skilled at playing. However, I don't know why, but this guy's talent does not lie in basketball, but rather in his off-key singing voice.

But I really can't play ball at all

Calculate one

Have a drink

Wiping the sweat from his neck, Liang Ziyuan, who was sitting on the ground, raised his eyebrows and glanced at Hao Yun, seemingly surprised that his roommate had come to bring him water

Only the basketball that has landed is bouncing away to the side

Shall we play ball together? I will take you along

Cut it out, smooth talker, is that all you can do is talk big?

Apart from Brother Ziyuan, who else could possess such popularity

Not only is he handsome, but he can also sing, dance, rap, and play basketball

With a cold smile, for reasons unknown, Liang Ziyuan suddenly abandoned his defense after sizing up Hao Yun.

A cold smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as he beckoned with his finger

It is rather embarrassing to say that he only remembered after talking big earlier that when holding the ball with both hands during an attack, he can no longer dribble.

A direct offensive is certainly out of the question, as the strengths of both sides are not on the same scale

Watching his brother Ziyuan racing on the basketball court, Haoyun thought for a moment and squeezed out 5 yuan from his already tight living expenses to buy two bottles of cola from the nearby convenience store, then returned to the side of the basketball court

He is certainly not here to play ball

That cool appearance once again elicited waves of screams from the group of girls outside.

Three-point shot! Liang Ziyuan scores two!

A pair of gazes fell upon the back.

Is this intended to be a super long three-pointer

It was a silence as dead as death

Essentially, it is an expression of watching a performance

However, regrettably, I did not deceive him

Even if there are side effects, if it is just about scoring a goal, the cost of causality should not be significant

Glancing at the girls loudly cheering around the basketball court, Liang Ziyuan frowned and clicked his tongue lightly, then turned his gaze towards Hao Yun, who was dribbling the ball to the midcourt line

Several boys who had previously played basketball together gathered in one place

Hao Yun sighed and continued speaking

He hooked the basketball with his foot and dribbled it twice, then made a pass to Hao Yun, saying coldly

The sound that permeated the blue network made Liang Ziyuan instinctively raise his head, and he immediately widened his eyes in disbelief.

Or do you want to become a singer? Am I correct in saying this

Even that group of girls suddenly stopped cheering due to the tense atmosphere

Hao Yun sighed and embraced the basketball with both hands

Hao Yun would naturally not allow these few unpleasant women to interfere with his plans, as he walked forward holding two cans of cola

Recalling the system's description of the functions and the guitar in the dormitory, Hao Yun further validated his conjecture and continued to speak step by step

If this thing can really reverse causality

As Liang Ziyuan retreated to the midfield position, the group of girls outside the basketball court immediately began to cheer with their high-pitched voices

Swish!

Is this a shot to be taken from the free-throw line

After all, with his mediocre basketball skills, if he can manage to throw the ball into the hoop, it must certainly be an issue with the hoop

You said, if this goal is scored, you will agree to that matter of mine

At that very moment, a subtle stir suddenly occurred in Hao Yun's heart

He stepped back to within the three-point line and made a gesture of invitation with an expressionless face

Agree

Continue

No matter what, being a class monitor is not an easy task... Take our advice, it is better to let those who enjoy managing these trivial matters handle it

Thinking of this, Hao Yun temporarily set aside the concerns in his heart, took a deep breath, and his expression gradually became serious.

Having spoken, Hao Yun, who had achieved his purpose, turned and left the stadium, leaving behind Liang Ziyuan in a state of shock, the audience gasping in disbelief, and all those seated on the ground rising to their feet.

What the hell

"Of course it matters," Hao Yun said, both amused and exasperated. "Do you know what tasks the class monitor is responsible for?"

How does Laozi know so much

Fight, bullfighting

Yes, that is correct

Early in the morning, upon waking up and noticing that Brother Ziyuan was not in the dormitory, Haoyun glanced at the group chat and realized that this fellow had arranged to go out and play basketball with a few boys from the class. Thus, he quickly finished his morning routine and followed suit.

Hao Yun stood by the playground, looking around for a while. Soon, his eyes brightened, and he walked towards the basketball court

Liang Ziyuan elegantly reached out, directly embracing the ball in his arms. Following that, he smoothly dribbled beyond the three-point line, and then turned around to execute a beautiful jump shot from three-point range

Ziyuan

What the heck, a stop ball in the middle line?

However, as he expected, the opponent made a feint and easily broke through his virtually non-existent defense, scoring a basket

Having said that, Liang Ziyuan put down the can and stood up

Noticing the atmosphere between the two, several classmates on the court stepped aside with expressions of curiosity to watch the unfolding scene

Looking at Liang Ziyuan, who had his back turned to him, Hao Yun retracted his hands from mid-air, wearing an expression of serene detachment as if he were a transcendent being.

You like music, don't you

Staring blankly at the basketball in his hand, Hao Yun continued to look at Liang Ziyuan in a daze

At the far end of the playground, on the basketball court, a 1.8-meter tall boy wearing a blue jersey and a white headband on his forehead executed a graceful three-step layup, eliciting excited cheers from several senior girls watching from the sidelines.

However, their focus was not on what Liang Ziyuan had said, but rather on Haoyun, who had stopped dribbling at the center line, staring in astonishment with their jaws nearly dropping to the ground.

"Of course, I came to find you," Hao Yun sighed as he watched the bouncing basketball on the court. "I originally intended to say this over the phone, but after some thought, I believe it is more appropriate to discuss it in person."

Hao Yun furrowed his brows and thought for a long time, yet he could not recall the details of the plot. Most of the memories from his past life were like this, leaving only a vague outline.

Ambition

That is a beautiful parabola

The ball has gone in

It was you who forced my hand

That is not necessarily the case; one cannot generalize about people. The last time I saw the black guy from the school team, he had only been there once, and that was just the day before during training.

What to agree to

Just say the dish

The only chance of victory lies in outsmarting the opponent

If one were to shoot the ball again, it seems to count as a second attempt

It's your turn now, is that alright

Goal! Liang Ziyuan scores a point

Although potential does not imply ability, it at least indicates that the observed subject possesses motivation in this regard

However, he did not think much of it, grinned widely, and took the can of cola without hesitation, casually clinking glasses with Hao Yun.

Isn't it still confusing after entering? Have you seen him shoot in a match? If he misses, won't he be scolded to death by his teammates? And in professional games, it's not like in the last few seconds when there's no time to attack; who the hell would shoot from that far away?

Although defeating weaker opponents lacks visual appeal, it is quite satisfying

I aspire to become a singer, and I have even made plans. During my four years in university, I aim to create at least one album that belongs to me.

GTND

Although there are indeed some benefits, such as opportunities to join organizations, poverty alleviation, scholarships, and so on, the troubles are also quite significant. If given another chance, Hao Yun would definitely not engage in this matter, even if there were no system in place.

He felt that what he was doing at this moment was strikingly similar to Francis in the first season of "House of Cards," as he was also placing a puppet onto the throne of the president/class leader

Seeing Hao Yun, who was already preparing to shoot, Liang Ziyuan disdainfully curled his lips and simply turned his back to him, casually saying

Accompanying you to play ball can... ... regarding the matter of running for class president

Bullfighting

I really can't play ball!

However, Garrett Walker's bag may be counterfeit, while Zhukinin's bag is undoubtedly genuine

or rather ... ...

Now is clearly not the time to think about this

"Yes, but do you really need that kind of ability?" Hao Yun continued, somewhat at a loss, "A small meeting once a week, a large meeting once a month, as regular as clockwork. Not to mention organizing class group activities, conveying notices from the department and the mentors, mediating conflicts between students... If you manage to handle all these matters thoroughly, do you still have time... to pursue your music?" Not to mention organizing class group activities, conveying notices from the department and the mentors, mediating conflicts between students... If you manage to handle all these matters thoroughly, do you still have time... to pursue your music?"

"Do you want to elicit sympathy?" Liang Ziyuan said with a cold smile, "Is it because you are weak?"

Life is just too damn fair

Do not ask who that person is

Thank you

carried a hint of subtle hostility

Why isn't he dribbling anymore

With both hands holding the ball, sweat was pouring down Hao Yun's forehead

However

What are you getting up for

The ending is not unexpected

Walking onto the basketball court with a bewildered expression, Hao Yun was completely stunned as he watched Liang Ziyuan, who was not playing by the rules.

I have loved music since I was young, and I do have some talent in this area; this is not a secret.

Uh, the latter half of the sentence is entirely unnecessary

It is your turn

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with a towel, Liang Ziyuan walked off the court and sat down for a brief rest under the basketball hoop

Liang Ziyuan: "Isn't that just a perfect opportunity to hone oneself"

With a face full of helplessness, Hao Yun, who was dribbling the ball and wandering near the halfway line, felt as if he had become the object of someone else's show-off performance

Hearing the raucous voices behind him, Liang Ziyuan turned his gaze towards Hao Yun and gently moved his neck.

Liang Ziyuan was taken aback for a moment, and after a considerable pause, he finally spoke

Hao Yun: "That—"

I really can't play ball

No, I do not believe I am weak; it is simply that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. What we can do is to focus wholeheartedly on honing our strengths to perfection within the limited span of our lives, rather than seeking the unattainable in areas where we are not proficient

At the same time, the entire basketball court fell silent

So far?! Can it reach the hoop...

Looking at Liang Ziyuan, who beckoned with his finger, he passed the ball out and braced himself to adopt a defensive posture.

Gazing towards the basketball court ahead, Liang Ziyuan slightly squinted his eyes and continued speaking

Casually throw him a couple of popular hit songs to fulfill his dream of stardom, and he probably won't even care about the class monitor position anymore

With a face full of a bewildered expression, Hao Yun gritted his teeth and dribbled the ball forward, colliding into it.

How do you know so much

Although it is strange why Hao Yun raised this question, Liang Ziyuan did not deny it and calmly nodded his head

This reason is fabricated temporarily

The ball has gone in ! ! !

"Yes," Liang Ziyuan tightened the headband on his forehead and moved his neck slightly, "1V1."

Yes...

What the hell

It seems that the rule in basketball is that once the ball is held with both hands, dribbling is no longer allowed

Wait a moment

Must I be made to look foolish?

This is roughly the rule

Hao Yun restrained his impulse to criticize and continued speaking in a persuasive tone

Hao Yun was taken aback

It seems as if it is saying -

What are you doing at the court

Looking at Liang Ziyuan's mocking gaze, he felt increasingly amused and exasperated in his heart

It seems that more and more people have noticed the situation here, gathering around the basketball court. After clarifying the sequence of events, they also joined the crowd watching the spectacle

I do not understand why you are helping that guy so much," Liang Ziyuan suddenly curled the corner of his mouth while staring intently at Hao Yun. "To be honest, it would be one thing if you were saying these things for your own sake.

The next day, the new student registration continued, and the number of people in the school gradually increased

I despise hypocrisy the most.

Saying this, Hao Yun sat down beside him and opened a can for himself as well

The tall boy from the neighboring dormitory took on the role of referee, excitedly shouting loudly towards the competition arena

He suddenly recalled the "Certificate of Causality" that the system had given him last night

weak

Have you ever considered that once you become the class leader, you will no longer have time to pursue your own dreams

A few senior female students in their third year, who were watching from the side, giggled and nudged each other, seemingly encouraging one another to come over to offer water and ask for contact information. Indeed, when faced with a young and attractive member of the opposite sex, there is not much difference between girls and boys.

Hao Yun, caught between laughter and tears, said: "Aren't you going to give your roommate a chance?"
