Tiandao: It's a TV drama. Tennen: It's based on a true story! Tiandao: ....... So funny!'\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>'Sure enough, boys who love sports can't escape the \"straight guy\" law.'\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>'Really? I love playing basketball too. Does this mean I = straight guy = Tiandao = I'm also a handsome guy with off-the-charts talent?'\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>'Wonderful, me too!'\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>'You shut-ins are disgusting, don't tarnish the cat's image in my heart!'\u003C\u002Fp>",1126,"2026-06-17T07:17:53.446Z","2026-06-17T09:02:19.189Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","46d193fcf0a5b751e9bd20348409659d50f7c3d5638e5613316c82630f3fd53b","the-popular-character-in-kuroko-s-basketball-chapter-26","the-popular-character-in-kuroko-s-basketball-chapter-24",256,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-popular-character-in-kuroko-s-basketball-cover.jpg"]
