Rukawa's grandfather didn't have any special hobbies in his later years. Like all old people, he loved drinking tea and playing chess.
While accompanying her grandfather, a certain Sakura lived up to his expectations. She learned how to make tea and play chess.
Ever since a certain Sakura could play chess with her grandfather, Rukawa's grandfather's chess friend, Tezuka Grandpa, who lived not far from them, was completely depressed.
Out of the depression of not being able to play chess with his good friend for a long time, Grandpa Tezuka rushed over without saying a word. However, what he saw was the scene of his good friend playing chess with his own five-year-old granddaughter. It was really strange!
After looking at each other for a long time, Tezuka Grandpa began to question his good friend with a sharp gaze.
Rukawa's grandfather proudly admitted that he was teaching his granddaughter how to play chess at home.
And just as Tezuka Grandpa had seen with his own eyes, they had already skipped the teaching stage and gone straight to the chess stage.
Tezuka Grandpa looked at the five-year-old Sakura suspiciously and began to test her skills.
In the end, Tezuka Grandpa was amazed by a certain Sakura, and from then on, he began to linger around the Rukawa family for a long time.
During this time, his taste buds were constantly shocked by a certain Sakura's cooking and tea skills. He threatened to make his grandson marry her.
Rukawa's grandfather was instantly enraged.
Because of this, the two elders fought fiercely every day.
Before Tezuka Grandpa retired as the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Commissioner, his status could be said to be the second highest in the police force. He was also quite skilled.
Since then, the Rukawa family was in chaos every day, and it was extraordinarily lively.
A certain Sakura calmly watched the battle from the side, unmoved even by thunder.
Until one day, when Tezuka Grandpa excitedly led his grandson into Rukawa's mansion, a certain Sakura's calmness was broken.
There was no other reason other than Tezuka Grandpa saying, "This is my grandson, Tezuka Kunimitsu."
The calm little boy Tezuka Kunimitsu, who was only five or six years old and had golden-brown hair, made Sakura's worldview, outlook on life, and values collapse instantly.
Although Yingying was only five years old, she had already died and been reborn. What else could make her break down? She was already past the age of being able to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of her.
This was the second thing in her life that caused her to break down.
The first thing he did was naturally to find out that his elder brother was Kaede Rukawa.
A certain Sakura was confused.
Was this "Slam Dunk" or "The Prince of Tennis"?
Everything was a mess. The timing was completely off!
A certain Sakuraba.
Even though she had known Mitsui since she was a child and had met Immortal Dao Zhang by chance, she was not shocked at all.
After all, she had always believed that this was the world of "Slam Dunk".
Before she was five years old, she lived in the world of "Slam Dunk".
When she was five years old, she met Tezuka Kunimitsu. Then, the world fell apart.
When she was five years old, she realized that she was destined to live in the same world of "Slam Dunk" and "The Prince of Tennis."
What a chaotic era this is!
A certain Sakura sighed in her heart for a long time.
In short, Tezuka Kunimitsu became her childhood friend.
Tezuka Kunimitsu, who had been like an iceberg since he was a child, was also a precocious child. At least, he looked very calm.
However, a certain Sakura was happy.
If she really had to play house or other games with a five or six-year-old child, she definitely wouldn't be able to stand it. She might as well kill herself.
As a result, the two childhood sweethearts were different from other children.
Tezuka was cold by nature. For some reason, he didn't have many friends.
On the other hand, although Rukawa Sakura was very good at getting along with people and had a wide range of friends, she didn't have many friends in her heart.
Moreover, did you want a mature person to make friends with a five or six-year-old "peer"?
Therefore, these two children hit it off and became very good friends.
Rukawa Sakura understood in her heart that Tezuka Kunimitsu was just a little cold. From the anime in her previous life, she knew that he was a very serious and responsible person.
Besides, Tezuka Kunimitsu was now a child after all. No matter how cold he was, he couldn't be that cold.
If they were to compare indifference, her Big Brother was still the best in terms of indifference.
Rukawa Sakura could open her heart to Tezuka and completely trust him.
Because Tezuka was really a trustworthy person.
Probably because he didn't have many friends, Tezuka also completely opened his heart to Rukawa Sakura, his best friend in a practical sense.
Being with her was very natural and not pretentious.
However, the Tezuka family lived in Tokyo. When they reached the age of primary school, the two had to be separated.
Both of them firmly resisted things like kindergarten. Their families knew that these two children were geniuses, so they didn't have much objection. Therefore, they had a "free" "childhood."
But when it came to primary school, there was no way to talk about it.
Rukawa Sakura had long been used to things like life and death. She was very open-minded about things like separation.
Although Tezuka couldn't bear to part with this childhood sweetheart and close friend, he was used to being cold and calm, so he wouldn't say anything.
After saying goodbye to his grandfather and good friends in Kanagawa, Tezuka returned to Tokyo.
After going to primary school, Rukawa Sakura very calmly got to know Seiichi Yukimura and Sanada Senichiro.
When they were young, Yukimura was as beautiful as a girl, and Sanada was a little boy.
Ever since Rukawa's grandfather and Grandpa Sanada met by chance and had a good chat, the relationship between Sanada Senichiro and Rukawa Sakura took another step forward.
The two elders were both martial arts masters. Grandpa Sanada even opened a kendo dojo, which was very famous in the country. He was also the honorary kendo instructor of the police station.
When they were young, the two elders had heard about each other. Although they didn't know each other very well, they were at the level of spiritual friends for a long time and had met each other a few times.
When they met at an old age, their friendship suddenly exploded, and it got out of hand.
In this regard, Rukawa Sakura didn't express any opinions.
In fact, her grandfather was a little out of line.
After Rukawa Sakura was brought by her grandfather to visit the Sanada family, the cool little boy Sanada Senichiro exploded.
After no longer being satisfied with the title "Shinichiro", the cool little boy forced Rukawa Sakura to call him "Big Brother".
Rukawa Sakura calmly asked why.
Sanada righteously said, "I'm older than you."
Rukawa Sakura was already past the age of fussing with the little boy. She could understand the little boy's male chauvinism, so she satisfied his vanity and called him "Shinichiro Big Brother" by Guigai.
Therefore, Tachikaidai's emperor was also very cute when he was young.
As for why he became the legendary "Black Faced God" when he grew up, even Rukawa Sakura didn't understand.
They were clearly childhood sweethearts and friends who had grown up together. How did the other party become like that? She could only say that it was already like that before she realized it.
Yukimura didn't say anything after learning about this. He just smiled as usual, making it hard to tell what he was thinking.
However, based on her intuition and understanding of Yukimura, Rukawa Sakura had a bad premonition. She felt that Yukimura was up to something.
Yukimura classmate, the future lord, you don't have any morals to speak of since you were young. You're not worthy of trust!
Rukawa Sakura knew the truth.
Anyway, her elementary school days were over.
Kaede Rukawa entered Fuqiu Middle School based on the principle of being close to home. Rukawa Sakura knew that in the near future, her brother would also enter Xiangbei High School based on the principle of being close to home.
Others might not believe that the principle of being close to home was used as an excuse, but Rukawa Sakura, who knew her brother's temperament well, believed it.
Well, her brother had always been such a person.
Moreover, even if this reason wasn't true, even if Kaede Rukawa really entered Xiangbei High School for Coach Ancey, it was the same. Xiangbei High School was close to home, so no one could say anything, right?
Rukawa Sakura would sigh every time she thought of this. The timing, location, and people were all in the right place!
The heavens had destined her brother to enter Xiangbei High School!
In Fuqiu Middle School, Rukawa Sakura chose Tachikaidai, which had a deep foundation.
Well, Rukawa's grandfather hoped that the siblings could study in the same school so that Kaede Rukawa could take care of his sister.
But in fact, when the siblings were studying together in elementary school, it was always Rukawa Sakura who took care of her brother.
When Fuqiu Middle School came, Rukawa Sakura decisively went on strike. Anyway, her brother was a cockroach, so there was no need to worry about him.
Besides, she also had a little dream. Tachikaidai's teachers were excellent, so why would she go to a second-rate school like Fuqiu High School?
Although she supported her brother's dream of playing basketball, there was no need for her to completely throw herself into it.
She actually didn't have any love for sports.
She didn't want to go to a second-rate school that was famous for basketball.
Her brother also couldn't go to a century-old school with a deep cultural foundation.
Speaking of which, even if her idiot brother wanted to enter, he couldn't. He could be directly eliminated in the entrance exam.
Rukawa's grandfather probably thought of this after he said that sentence, so he only mentioned it once and didn't say anything else.
Her parents, who were away all year round, didn't have any reason to oppose their daughter, who had her own opinions.
After all, they didn't have the qualifications to speak of it.
They had been absent from their child's life for so many years, so they didn't have the right to speak.
Rukawa Sakura only "informed" them, so presumably they wouldn't and couldn't have any objections.
For their daughter, who entered a century-old school with first place in the entrance exam, they only sent a gift — the latest laptop from Microsoft.
