Duncan Residence.
Nighttime.
"Welcome, welcome! You must be Heather!"
Adam's mom greeted warmly.
"Yes, Mrs. Duncan," Heather replied, a bit nervous.
"Oh, just call me Amy," she said, eyeing Heather up and down, noticing her stunning figure. Amy turned to Adam with a look that clearly said, "So this is your type, huh? No wonder you weren't interested in Juno."
"Heather, your eyes are gorgeous."
"Thank you," Heather responde...

*The Cooper Household.*
Looking at a child five or six years younger than herself, seriously asking her to call him "Doctor," Heather couldn’t help but feel a strong sense of discord. Even though she had heard Adam and the others talk about Sheldon over the past two years, experiencing it firsthand was still surreal.
"I warned you."
Missy’s voice floated in from outside.
Of all people, Adam had to bring Sheldon into this? That was ju...

Duncan Residence.
As soon as Adam got home, his mom bombarded him with questions. With no way out, he reluctantly mentioned Heather.
"Her name is Heather. She's a student at City University of New York."
"And then?"
His mom looked at him skeptically. "You're not just picking a random girl you’ve 'dated' to get me off your back, are you?"
"No."
Adam sighed. "She came along for the vacation, and right now, she's hanging out with Juno and ...

Galveston.
The four of them were all experienced drivers, taking turns behind the wheel so the car barely stopped. Before long, they arrived home.
"Heather, why don’t you stay at Karen’s place with us?"
Juno suggested, "Her parents aren’t home, and her house is big—it’ll be convenient."
Heather instinctively looked at Adam.
Adam glanced at Juno, who was smiling mischievously with a "this is for your own good" expression. ...

Atobe hadn’t expected Ishikawa to break the awkward tension between them so directly and decisively at this moment. But then, he smiled.
As the captain of Ice Emperor, he had been acting hesitant and emotionally unstable. That kind of image hardly suited a leader of their caliber. Ishikawa’s straightforward words snapped him out of it.
“Alright!” Atobe agreed without hesitation.
Not far away, the others had been watching their conversation closely. They didn...

That afternoon.
In the singles 2 match, Rikkai Dai easily defeated Fudomine with a 3-1 score, securing their spot in the Kanto finals.
Evening.
As the crowd dispersed.
The two teams crossed paths at the exit.
On one side was Hyotei, a massive team of over 200 members, riding high on their triumphant victory over Seigaku.
On the other side was last year’s reigning champion, Rikkai Dai, who had even achieved back-to-back national titles.

"15-15!"
After what felt like an eternity, the referee's voice finally broke the silence that had enveloped the court.
The crowd's thoughts slowly returned from the shock they had just experienced. Yet, the way everyone looked at Ishikawa was still filled with overwhelming awe.
"Can a middle schooler really hit a shot like that?"
On the Seigaku side, Momoshiro and Kaidoh were utterly stunned. Others like Oishi, Kikumaru...

Miles glanced at Anson, plucking a single guitar string:
Buzz!
That look, that movement, that posture—everything about Miles was issuing a warning to Anson. Are you sure? Are you ready? Can you handle this?
Anson responded with a rapid, dazzling cascade of drumbeats, a torrential wave crashing toward Miles—a bold, upright answer.
Miles shook his head lightly and plucked another string:

Tetsuka Kunimitsu.
Captain of the Seishun Academy tennis team.
A man of calm demeanor, strict discipline, and an ice-cold aura that radiates from his every move.
And at this moment.
With the score against him and his team's chances of advancing slipping away, a red line was drawn beneath Tetsuka's feet. He had made his decision—there would be no retreat, not even half a step back.
No roars, no shouts.
No impassioned declarations.
Yet.

Upon hearing Oishi’s words, Kikumaru, Momoshiro, and the others turned to him with puzzled expressions. Kikumaru asked, “Oishi, do you know about Tezuka’s secret move?”
“Yes,” Oishi nodded. “Actually, Tezuka mastered this move back when he first joined Seigaku’s middle school team.”
“What?!”
The Seigaku team was stunned. Even Inui, who prided himself on knowing everything about the team, h...

On the Ice Emperor's side, Shishido, Mukahi, and the others wore expressions of disbelief. No one could have imagined that Tezuka's ultimate technique, which he had previously demonstrated, had been learned by Ishikawa.
"Wait a minute," Oishi's face darkened as he seemed to realize something. "Could it be... that he also possesses something similar to the Selfless State?"
Earlier, Echizen had used the Selfless State to replicate various players' ...

“Honestly, I don’t know,” Ronan said.
His words were light, no taunting, no grand emotion, no heavy sighs—just a quiet resolve and determination woven through them. Those feelings seeped out slowly, and the subtle wisdom tucked inside hit his bandmates right in the chest—
Because they all felt it too.
Before they knew it, their eyes were on Ronan. A soft smile curved his lips, radiating a warm, crisp comfort from within. The night’s chilly breeze seemed to...

Faintly, Ronan could dredge up a blurry memory of that morning in his mind.
He’d been the first to notice Tristan had bailed without a word.
That day, he’d woken up groggy, head heavy and feet unsteady, stumbling to Tristan’s room to knock on the door and call him for breakfast. He knocked for ages with no answer—until a cleaning worker showed up instead.
“That room’s been checked out.”
That’s what the worker said. Ronan thought it was a joke a...

New Line Cinema was acquired by Time Warner in 1993, but thanks to its strong performance, it has independent operational rights in film management.
Of course, it can’t go against the broader strategies of the parent company.

Warner’s dominance didn’t scare Dunn. This wasn’t 1996 anymore, when he’d just stepped into Hollywood.
Now, Dunn was a top-tier director under the AA banner, working hand-in-hand with PR guru Brian Lord and sharing a tight bond with Twentieth Century Fox chairman Bill Mechanic.
By his side, he had heavyweights like George Lucas, a Jewish mogul, and behind him stood the powerful Francis Coppola as his backup.

That kind of haul put it just behind this year’s Hollywood heavyweights like Armageddon, Godzilla, and Deep Impact. For now, it’s even outpacing Saving Private Ryan, which hit theaters two weeks ago.
Sure, the overseas box office for Greek Wedding is slowing down a bit, but Fox analysts are buzzing. They say this movie’s aimed...

After subduing the chameleon, Seimei pulled his gaze back and refocused on the Iwa ninja standing in front of him.
This time, he didn’t hesitate. He immediately raised his hands to form seals and unleashed the "Ninjutsu: Mind-Reading Technique."
Seimei placed his palm on the Iwa ninja’s head and closed his eyes.
Instantly, a flood of memories poured into his mind.
Frowning slightly, Seimei ignored the jumble of irrelevant thoughts and zeroed in on any inform...

Hovering in the air, Seimei took a moment to get his bearings.
After locking onto the northwest direction toward the Land of Earth, he flapped his wings and sped off that way without hesitation.
The Land of Waterfalls, where Takigakure was located, was just a small country. Its territory wasn’t all that big, and with Seimei flying high above, the dense forests, towering mountains, cliffs, and waterfalls below didn’t slow him down one bit.
So, it didn’t tak...

Everything was going smoothly.
Chandler had sacrificed himself as a cross-dressing master to earn forgiveness, and in return, he won over a big-mouthed beauty.
Professional actor Joey, however, was too obvious in his attempt to steal a kiss—his lips were already positioned perfectly before he even lunged. Chandler caught on immediately and kicked him away, denying him the long-awaited practice opportunity.
But at least the audition went well.

Clap, clap, clap!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
As Chandler, dressed in women’s clothing, displayed his masculinity and embraced Susie (who was dressed as a man) in a French romantic gesture, the atmosphere in the venue reached its peak.
"Sob, sob, sob!"
While Monica and Rachel covered their mouths, their eyes shimmering with tears of emotion, Joey was already crying uncontrollably.

Adam’s casually mixed Pawnshop No. 8 cocktail was a huge hit.
After Monica had one drink, she kept going, one glass after another, quickly becoming the one who drank the most and the fastest.
She needed this feeling.

People took turns performing—singing, dancing—clearly all employees from the advertising company.
Compared to an IT company, Chandler’s new colleagues definitely knew how to have fun.

In midair, fragments of Marilyn Raphael's skeletal remains, which had previously dissipated, seemed to momentarily regain vitality under the stimulus of the spirits, bursting forth with tremendous power.
Enveloped by the eerie blue glow emitted from the bones, the wandering spirits let out shrill screams, but they were powerless to resist as they dis...
