Insufficient balance

  Xiao Xiao and Lei Tian arrived on the main street, hailed a taxi, and told him to go to Hua Rong Alley. The driver heard it was Hua Rong Alley and knew that most of the residents there were government officials. He immediately sped up and drove rapidly to get there.

  Lei Tian's parents were overjoyed to see Lei Tian return. They worked at the municipal government and had extensive connections, familiar with all levels of relationships. Through Xiao Xiao, they learned about the actual situation and secretly contacted the Public Security Bureau. The police arrived at the scene, caught the doll-faced man, and then asked Xiao Xiao why she was there.

  Xiao Xiao truthfully told his story and was naturally confirmed as a hero who upholds justice.

  After the doctor's examination, it was found that Xiao Xiao's homemade gun was not very powerful and only caused superficial injuries to the doll-faced man. The iron bead can be removed. As for fainting, it was due to being startled by Xiao Xiao suddenly pulling out the gun at close range.

  After interrogation, the doll-faced man was a black car driver who admitted to molesting three children under the age of ten. The bloodstains and hair on the car were from the boys. His modus operandi was to use anesthetics bought online to knock the boys unconscious before taking them to his red van where he would molest them, then dumping them in a secluded area.

  In cases like this, the family of a male victim often won't report it due to concerns about saving face. However, such incidents can leave an indelible shadow on the boy's growth. This time, WaWa stopped his car in a thicket to relieve himself and encountered Lei Tian by chance. Lei Tian was just the type he liked - a boy with a more developed physique than his peers. Unexpectedly, XiaoXiao appeared to block him, and in a moment of lost rationality, he committed murder.

  The doll-faced man was sentenced to twenty years in prison. After the final verdict, he suddenly developed a kind of indirect mental illness, and when he fell ill, he would crawl on all fours, roll around frantically, and bump into things randomly with his nose raised from low to high. He also fantasized that he was a 200-kilogram mother pig on a farm, being chased by a child with standing hair, holding a brick, shouting and wanting to smash him to death.

  Lei Tian's parents thought about it and through their connections, they managed to cover up Lei Tian's involvement in the matter and forbade him from telling anyone, including his childhood friend Wang Ziwen. After all, who would want to mention being almost hit by a baseball bat from behind? Even if it was just a false alarm where not even a single hair on his head was touched, but if people found out, he would be ridiculed.

  From then on, Xiao Xiao got along very well with Lei Tian and always bragged to him: "At the age of three, I could fold toilet paper into two layers and wipe my butt by myself. At four years old, I successfully jumped over the stinky ditch in the south of the city while riding a children's bicycle..."

  Through this matter, Xiao Xiao warned Lei Tian to make his body strong so that he would not be ambushed again. Lei Tian accepted his advice and began to undergo physical training and boxing exercises, constantly strengthening his physique, becoming the mighty giant of today. Now, only he can bully others, no one dares to bully him.

  "What exactly do you want to do?"

  Suddenly, he heard Wang Zixun's calm question from across the way. He immediately broke free from his memories of himself and Lei Tian. He thought to himself that he was still in the Supreme, and there were important matters at hand. He shook his right index finger back and forth twice in front of Wang Zixun, spitting out a single word: "Fake."

  Wang Zi Xun thinks he is innocent and has nothing to do with this character.

  Suddenly with a burst of laughter, she jumped up and down, saying: "True or False."

  "What?"

  Xiao Xiao suddenly became serious, her eyes narrowing as she hugged her arms, "Don't you think it's fake?"

  "It's clear." Prince Wang Zhen didn't understand sincerely.

  "The basketball game celebrating graduation is simply awesome." Xiao Xiao gave him a big thumbs up, very much in agreement with his idea, but then shifted the conversation, "But you, found some flower vase ball handlers. They surrounded you, not blocking, not defending. Letting you score alone with all your might. Do you think it's interesting?" His eyes were sharp and piercing.

  The prince finally understood what he was pointing at. Indeed, although the ball players he had invited were all good hands, they were so eager to make him happy today that they didn't put up any resistance against him and just let him score. This was indeed not satisfying. He had actually seen this coming a long time ago and wasn't having fun himself either. He was just being considerate of the overall situation and hadn't spoken out about it. Xiao Xiao, who spoke the truth without considering the whole scene's misunderstanding, was a friend worth befriending. He didn't want to befriend people like Lei Tian.

  The prince thought of this and asked Xiao Xiao: "In that case, what do you want to do?"

  "I," with a mysterious smile, pointed at his own face with his index finger and said: "Come on, let's play a game together."

  The prince didn't expect Xiao Xiao to make such a big scene, and it turned out that he just wanted to play basketball, which was exactly what he was in the mood for. Okay, let's have a game with Xiao Xiao today. He stretched out his hand towards the outside of the court. A ball boy on the sidelines understood that he wanted the ball and threw the basketball into the court with great force. Wang Zixun caught it effortlessly with one hand, holding the ball in his hand, "How do you want to play?"

  Xiao Xiao used her index finger to hook towards him and then back to herself.

  The prince understood his meaning at once and threw the basketball towards Xiao Xiao with force.

  Xiao Xiao held a wine bottle in his left hand and caught the basketball with his right. With a light twist of his palm, the ball began to spin in his hand. He topped it with his index finger, and the spinning ball moved to the tip of his finger, spinning on the tip.

  He spun the basketball, feeling the intoxication on his body getting weaker. For the first time facing so many spectators, he must show off his skills. He spun the ball and said to Wang Zi: "I ruined your last shot, I'll give you a special last shot. It's a deal, just one shot. Three-point line outside shot, whoever scores wins. Don't miss the opportunity, don't regret it."

  The prince searched for the corner of his mouth and proudly said: "Just one ball."

  The graduates outside the court heard that Xiao Xiao was going to have a one-on-one match with Wang Zixun and came with interest. Although they all knew that Wang Zixun's skills were hard to match, they wanted to see Xiao Xiao more, who could make trouble, but as for real basketball skills, they didn't know how.

  Lei Tian watched as Xiao Xiao actually started playing basketball with Wang Zi Xun, and he thought to himself what on earth was this guy up to? He had kindly invited him to attend the graduation ceremony, but instead he came here to stir up trouble. It's really unknown what he's thinking.

  The basketball spun on the tip of his right hand, and he crouched down to put the wine bottle in his left hand on the ground. Standing up, he suddenly tossed the ball high into the air with his right hand. The basketball rotated and flew higher and higher. At the same time, he took off his shirt and threw it to the ground. Then, his left hand picked up the wine bottle again. Just then, the basketball fell back down, and he caught it with one finger tip, continuing to spin.

  "My god, so handsome."

  The graduates in the audience gasped, not in admiration of Xiao's ball skills, but in awe of his muscular physique and skull tattoos.

  Hua Jun, standing in the crowd, heard Lei Tian say that Xiao Xiao was coming and was full of expectation. Unexpectedly, he actually came up with such an opening, and couldn't help but sigh: "Little demon, it seems that you still have some skills in art. However, you're so full that you've come here to ruin the good show of the little prince. In sports, you might be at a disadvantage."

  "Huh? Máo is really sexy." Hu Xiang naturally also heard Lei Tian say that Xiao Xiao was coming, and she stared at Xiao Xiao's navel, lightly biting her lip, with a slight little fantasy in her heart.

  "Hmm?" Lan Miao stretched out her index finger, lightly biting the tip of it. She had lost interest in Xiao Xiao's nickname "Little Devil" for a while now. "I didn't expect Little Devil to be so savage and uncivilized, like a wild man... but he's really strong, just like that, yeah. Not bad at all." As she thought about this, her face turned red.

  "It's interesting," Wang Zixian thought, seeing Xiao Xiao's extraordinary skills, feeling delighted in his heart. He didn't expect that this last ball would become so interesting. He felt that today's game had just begun. He tore off his own basketball vest and threw it on the ground. His body was white and flawless, with prominent muscles. Although sturdy, he appeared slightly tall and lean overall.

  Xiao Xiao saw Wang Ziyu tearing his clothes and knew the time had come, so he suddenly raised his left hand high, pouring all the wine from the bottle into his mouth. Then, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of wine onto the rotating ball, evenly spraying half a bottle of wine onto the surface of the basketball.

  "What's this, spouting nonsense? Traditional program. Nothing to do but come here and pretend to be a big shot, might as well go tell jokes with others, huh." Hua Jun saw Xiao Xiao's actions and felt a headache coming on, "Go play the role of a clown, earn some money to spend, and avoid looking for trouble when there isn't any."

  "Hmm, still got it." Hu Xiang made a smoking gesture and blew out a smoke ring, which dissipated slowly in mid-air.

  "Huh? Wine, if you drink too much, you'll become a drunk cat, your face will be red and puffy, hehe, meow. Lan MiaoMiao supported her cheeks with her hands and blinked her eyes. If you drink too much, you won't be able to control yourself and do crazy things. That would be embarrassing."

  Xiao Xiao poured the wine evenly, and with a flick of his left hand, he threw the bottle out of the venue, almost hitting a graduate's head. After throwing away the bottle, he casually pulled out a matchstick from his pants pocket, lifted his foot, and rubbed the matchhead on the sole of his shoe, igniting it. He held the match in front of him, gazing at Wang Zixun through the winding flame that rose upwards like an inverted heart shape.

  The prince has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, short hair, a serious expression, clear and calm eyes, deep like the ocean.

  The prince also looked at Xiao through the flames.

  Xiaoxiao yellow explosive head, long eyebrows, slightly smiling, slightly evil, eyes piercing and fierce, intense like a volcano.

  "What are you looking at? Can't even start the game, and soon you'll be sleeping." Someone in the stands yawned, listlessly protesting.

  Suddenly, the dying match was flicked onto the spinning basketball with just a spark, and in an instant, the ball was set ablaze, rotating non-stop as it gradually engulfed the entire ball in flames, turning into a blazing fireball.

  "Little demon, isn't it not what I imagined? He and Lei Tian are brothers, so shouldn't we be brothers too?" Hua Jun gently stroked his chin, gazing at the suddenly ignited fireball, his heart beating suddenly accelerating.

  "Oh? Trying to provoke me?" Hu Xian's interest was piqued, and Holmmon became agitated, with a thin layer of fine sweat appearing on the edges of his ears.

  "Fireball, fire sparkles, meow." Blue Miao Miao clapped her hands and jumped up, making a trumpet shape with her hands. "Hey, little demon classmate, don't play with fire, or you might accidentally burn the playground. It's on fire, hurry home and get your clothes. No, that's not it... Meow."

  All graduates looked at the burning basketball excitedly, with high emotions.

  The basketball was already burning with a uniform and beautiful flame, his right hand's fingertips shrunk, the ball fell into his palm, he knew that this ball would exist for a very short time, if it burned out in his own hands, then it would be boring. Thinking about it, feeling the scorching heat on the surface of the ball, he pushed the hot potato towards Wang Zi with force and said calmly: "Let's start, remember, just one ball. If it burns out in anyone's hand, that counts as a loss."

  The prince searched for the ball and immediately felt the basketball burning in his hands. He had never played with a fiery basketball before, so he knew he had to take the initiative to attack in order not to let the ball burn in his own hands and win. After two crossovers, he held the ball and changed direction once, trying to shake off Xiao Xiao.

  Xiao Xiao's lower body was extremely stable, his legs were like pillars, standing there without wavering. He stretched out his long right arm to block the prince's line of sight, making it impossible for him to break through and advance.

  The prince saw no possibility of advancing and thought about making a new attack plan. Just as he was thinking, his eyes turned to the right.

  He keenly observed the subtle changes in Wang Zi's eyes and suddenly shouted: "I've seen through your moves!" As he spoke, his right foot took a step back to the right, his palm opened with five fingers. Although he was only 1.81 meters tall, he had unusually large hands, and it was no problem for him to grasp a basketball with one hand at ordinary times. Now, his palm was like an open fan, blocking Wang Zi's path to the basket once again.

  "Not necessarily."

  The prince's mouth hooked up, and he gave Xiao a subtle smile with his eyes. He wasn't going to go down, but instead jumped high into the air, arching his body back. When he was almost unable to land safely, he threw the flaming basketball out with force. The fireball trailed a long flame tail, drawing a seven-colored arc of flames.

  "My god, so beautiful."

  The audience gasped, and several people's wine glasses fell to the ground involuntarily. A few drunkards took this fireball for a shooting star and began making wishes towards it.

  The prince's thrown basketball hit the backboard, leaving a light-colored mark on it. The ball had a long tail of flames, like Halley's Comet in the sky, and fell down.

  With a whoosh, he took two big strides, his toes pointing to the ground, and leaped up to the basket, his body leaning forward, snatching the ball out of thin air, grasping it firmly in his palm. The fierce flames burned brighter and brighter, and in an instant, they would engulf the basketball itself. That way, the ball would be ruined, and he wouldn't stand a chance of winning this game. He deeply understood this principle, dribbling three big steps to the outside of the three-point line.

  "You can't get past me, little monster." Prince Xun was already waiting there, his right palm held out in front of him, assuming a defensive stance.

  "Give it a try."

  Xiao Xiao turned to the left and took two big strides, preparing to push forward another two steps to shoot. He held the ball and pushed forward, brushing past Wang Zixun's shoulder by a hair's breadth. The flames on the basketball almost burned Wang Zixun's shorts.

  Unexpectedly, Wang Zixun's retreat defense speed was too fast. Before Xiao Xiao could take two steps to stabilize himself, he had already returned to a defensive position that was advantageous for him, trapping Xiao Xiao.

  Xiao Xiao was temporarily in a predicament, with no way out, staring at Wang Zhen opposite him, slapping the basketball in his hand, thinking about how to attack.

  The flames on the basketball court, with the ball bouncing up and down, the tip of the flame was like a poisonous snake spitting out its venom, rushing towards Xiao Xiao, already able to scorch his chin, his chin felt the heat, suddenly sweat flowed, dripping, dripping onto the floor.

  The flames on the basketball are almost extinguished, and a small area of the ball's skin is starting to catch fire. People sitting closer to the edge of the court can faintly smell the burnt smell of the leather. This smell of burning leather evokes an unbearable sense of anxiety in the hearts of the spectators.

  Xiao Xiao looked at Wang Zixuan's face, which was less than ten centimeters away from his own, and the basketball in his hand jumped up and down, reflected in his eyes, making his originally bright eyes suddenly become blurry with a spark, making it difficult for people to guess what he would do next to defend himself.

  Wang Zixun looked at Xiao Xiao's eyes, his eyes were originally unpredictable, but at this moment, he suddenly added some confusion. It seemed that he was already at a loss and had no countermeasures. Right, it was at this time. Wang Zixun stretched out his hand and came to intercept the ball in Xiao Xiao's hand.

  A soft, inexplicable laugh, he knew the opportunity had come, just as Wang Zixun stretched out to intercept him. He turned around with the ball, swiftly passing by Wang Zixun's side, taking a big step forward, arriving under the basket, jumping up with the ball, spinning in mid-air, his head already above the rim.

  "Is that for real? Jumping so high, come on, someone as sturdy as you can jump that high. Be careful not to fall and break your leg, if there's a nail underfoot?" Hua Jun saw Xiao Xiao being so bold and suddenly had a bad idea in her mind.

  "Hmm? It's so hard?" Hu Shan had already extinguished his cigarette, and the tense neck was also sweating, dripping down to the high chest, flowing down along the peaks.

  "Blazing flyer, fly, fly, fly, no one can catch up with you! Little demon, meow. Blue Miao Miao clapped her hands and jumped up, super excited, "Fly into the sky and pick stars for me, pick stars, pick a meteor shower, meow."

  Wangzi Xun knew he had lost his grip, but he already understood Xiao Xiao's intentions. He turned around, and with a long stride forward, he leaped up, like a sliding dragonfly, his left hand covering Xiao Xiao.

  With both hands holding the ball, his body shrinks, his elbows and knees touching, he suddenly opens up in mid-air, with his back to the basket, a fierce fireball dunk.

  The prince sought abdominal muscle support, flying forward for a while. At that moment, although slow, although finished, but due to his height and arm length advantage, the first two joints of his left hand fingers still sealed onto the surface of the burning basketball. Felt the fingertips scrape off a layer of soft warm ball skin.

  The ball was covered with a lid, and with great force, it was slammed into the basket. The ball was sealed by Wang Zixun's fingertips, resulting in an error. The ball that should have been dunked into the basket was instead stuck on the rim. The ball was scorched by the intense heat, its skin softened, and it hung deeply from the basket, sticking to the frame, unable to fall into the basket or onto the ground.

  Xiao Xiao had no choice but to let go.

  The prince successfully found the seal and his mouth corners rose high.

  Xiao Xiao and Wang Zixun fell down at the same time, both standing on the spot, taking a long breath, raising their heads to quietly gaze at the burning basket.

  The audience was stunned by the two men's ball skills, unable to utter a word, and stared blankly at the raging fire, the flames on the ball spreading to the net, which also caught fire.

  The whole court was silent, with only the sound of the basketball burning.

  "Boom!"

  A loud explosion, the basketball exploded, the basket burst open, and a huge fireball burst out, with countless spherical fireworks shooting out in all directions, carrying seven-colored long tails, like a meteor shower. For a moment, the entire court was filled with flying splendor, dazzling to the extreme.

  After the light, a big "Graduation" appeared in two fiery characters, shining brightly, as if carved in mid-air.
