Crazy Smartphone – Part One

This guy insists it was just a normal mishap during a basketball game. The student who got hit had a hard time speaking up, and even when he complained to the principal, it was to no avail. Even if the injury was more severe, accusing him of malicious harm would only result in compensation for medical expenses. With his Swift Wind Boots, Lin Feng was far more agile and faster than an average person. He was always on guard against any underhanded tactics from his opponent, so he was not afraid of Cao Nan’s sneak attack. Cao Nan was just about to make his move when Lin Feng had already seen through his intentions. However, the force of the basketball was too great, and with Lin Feng’s current weakened state, he didn’t dare to take it head-on. When the basketball was right in front of him, he calmly sidestepped, but this caused a group of onlookers to suffer as they were knocked down by Cao Nan’s “Rushing Thunder Hand.” Missing the first shot, Cao Nan threw several more basketballs in succession, each aimed precisely at Lin Feng’s face. Cao Nan was in full swing with his “Rushing Thunder Hand,” causing chaos on the court with cries and howls. Lin Feng knew that if he didn’t respond, Cao Nan might turn the entire school upside down, and then, some who didn’t understand the situation might start looking down on him too. Being despised would lower his reputation score, which was not a good sign. “Boss Cao, stop! I’ll play you!” Thus, Lin Feng, forced into a corner, was once again pushed onto the basketball court. Without further ado, Cao Nan passed the ball to Lin Feng from the center line. Lin Feng caught it, turned, and threw it towards the hoop. Clang—the basketball hit the rim and bounced high. “Damn it! What kind of shooting is that? You’re supposed to pass it back to me first, don’t you understand? If you keep pretending, I’m going to get really mad!” Uh… you bastard, I told you I can’t play, yet you say I’m showing off. Show off to your grandma! If I could really play, I’d have knocked you down today! You bastard, I’ve never seen someone with such a thick face, daring to go back on your word in front of so many people! Truly, the most shameless are invincible. Lin Feng was also getting angry. Damn it, even with my eyes closed, I could easily make a shot. Why isn’t my hook shot working now that my eyes are open? “Pass it back, damn it… You’re supposed to pass it back first…” “Boss Cao, I really can’t play basketball!” Lin Feng, again receiving the ball, turned to shoot, driving Cao Nan to shout near the center line in frustration. “Damn it, please, stop pretending, okay? If you can’t play, I’ll teach you!” “Ah… you’ll teach me… how could I trouble you, Boss Cao, thank you for your hard work!” “Damn it, remember this, after the tip-off, you pass the ball back first before defending, then you grab the ball and shoot to score. Are you really telling me you’ve never played basketball before? I must be out of my mind to compete with a freak like you in one-on-one! Damn it, did you get the rules now?” “Uh, I understand a bit more now.” “Damn it! Lin Feng, will you die if you don’t show off?” Cao Nan was utterly depressed, watching Lin Feng’s clumsy movements when catching, dribbling, and shooting the ball, he began to doubt if this guy had really never played basketball before. Could his earlier blindfolded shooting have been part of a well-planned revenge? Thinking he had unexpectedly encountered a worthy opponent on the court, Cao Nan, who prided himself on his basketball skills, was driven by a competitive spirit to show off in front of his classmates, aiming to reclaim his glory as the undefeated king of the court. However, Lin Feng kept playing out of the ordinary, shooting immediately after receiving the ball and intentionally missing, making the game unbearably frustrating. With no other choice, Cao Nan, for the first time, stopped to meticulously explain the one-on-one rules to Lin Feng, thinking, “You keep pretending, today whether you’re truly clueless or just pretending, I’ll teach you on the spot, and we’ll play, I’ll knock you out with the basketball… you insufferable show-off!” Lin Feng was genuinely embarrassed; he didn’t know the rules of one-on-one. He thought you just needed to shoot once you had the ball. After Cao Nan’s detailed explanation, he finally understood where the problem lay. Seeing Cao Nan so frustrated, Lin Feng was secretly delighted, wishing he could keep pretending to be clueless just to drive the other guy mad. Fine! Since you want to play seriously, I’ll indulge you in this game of one-on-one… 031 Cao Without the Ball “Boss Cao, I’m passing it back!” “Boss Cao, I’m stealing the ball!” “Boss Cao, I’m shooting!” … “Damn it, where’s the ball?” “Damn it, where’s the person?” “Damn it, missed again?” Lin Feng was in front, Cao Nan chasing from behind. Lin Feng shouted as he ran, and Cao Nan yelled as he chased. Lin Feng suddenly became like a rabbit, dashing around the court with the ball, running to the east one moment, to the west the next. He wasn’t playing basketball; he was clearly just messing around, and anyone could see that he was deliberately causing trouble. Strangely enough, no matter who started with the ball, in the blink of an eye, it would end up in Lin Feng’s hands. What frustrated Cao Nan the most was that this guy didn’t play by the rules, and before doing anything, he would shout out what he was going to do. For example, when Lin Feng said he was going to steal the ball, Cao Nan had possession and was making a stylish three-step layup. Just as the ball left his hands towards the hoop, Lin Feng shouted, “Boss Cao, I’m stealing the ball!” Suddenly, the ball was in Lin Feng’s hands. Then Lin Feng would dash to another corner of the court… No matter how careful Cao Nan was with the ball, as soon as it left his hands, it would end up with Lin Feng. What was even weirder was that Cao Nan, despite years of playing basketball, couldn’t see how Lin Feng managed to steal the ball. To outsiders, it looked like Cao Nan was willingly passing the ball to Lin Feng. To observers, the two playing one-on-one on the court weren’t competing; it was more like an adult teasing a child. If it were Cao Nan, the taller and stronger one, teasing the slender Lin Feng, it would be understandable due to their size difference. But now, it was the monkey-like Lin Feng running circles around the big gorilla Cao Nan. Cao Nan couldn’t get the ball, and when Lin Feng did, he either ran around or threw it randomly at the hoop. When Cao Nan managed to grab the ball to shoot, Lin Feng would instantly steal it back, and the scene would repeat… This was blatant teasing! Blatant provocation! Blatant defiance!
