Junior High School
So strong and so high, like a wall.
The coach put his hands behind his back and looked up at Takeo Goda without changing his expression.
I originally thought that Kindaichi was taking hormones to be so tall at this age, but I didn't expect to meet someone taller.
Under the calm face, the coach's neck was a little sore from tilting it up.
"…What are you doing here?"
"I want to try out for the volleyball club, coach!"
It really is...
In fact, the coach had just learned from Kindaichi that Takeo was here to join the volleyball club.
But standing here and seeing him in person, I can hardly believe it and feel a little dazed... With such physical fitness, he doesn't look like a volleyball player, right?
It made the group of people playing volleyball next to them look like either bamboo poles or chickens.
This body type is very suitable for playing basketball and defending rebounds, and playing football and defending goal, but it does not look like a volleyball player. To be more precise, it does not look like a junior high school student who plays volleyball.
He's so... muscular, neither fat nor strong. It feels like he's completed the physical development that would take others twenty years in just one year.
When you lift up your clothes, your abdominal muscles should be as solid as bricks.
And what does "try" mean? Where did this term come from?
Does this mean that even if the volleyball club thinks he is suitable after trying him out, he will have to leave as long as he himself feels it is not suitable?
"...I heard you've joined the Taekwondo club."
"I've applied to withdraw from the company, but they didn't approve it, so my name is still listed there..."
Takeo Gouda said this without much confidence, and was very worried that the coach would not give him a chance because of this incident.
This is indeed a reason that would lead to rejection from other clubs, but there are exceptions to everything. Excellent athletes are always sought after, and Takeo Goda certainly has this potential.
"Then why did you choose our volleyball club?"
"Because the volleyball club is the most famous! Everyone in the class said so, so I came here."
This compliment really touched the coach's heart. After talking for so long, he finally heard something he could listen to.
After a moment of hesitation, the coach decided: "Let's give it a try."
Let him come and see if this person who is being held tightly by the Taekwondo Club has any shining points in volleyball that are waiting to be developed.
The coach didn't bother to ask the tough guy whether he had played volleyball before.
It's obvious that he has never played this game before and probably doesn't even know the rules.
With a wave of his hand, he directly ordered Kindaichi to take the strong man for a walk, explain the rules of the game to him, and then teach him the basic volleyball skills.
Takeo Goda didn't expect that his request would be granted so easily. He was thinking about which club to choose next, and followed Kindaichi happily.
Kindaichi: "..."
It feels like being stared at by a wild beast, such a strong sense of oppression!
After taking the tough guy with him to familiarize himself with the venue, the two of them ran into Sato and Hinata Aoi who had finally tidied up the utility room.
Sato Daichi took two steps at a time and the moment he saw Takeo Gouda, he teleported from Hinata Aoi's side to behind her, trying to use the girl's well-proportioned body to cover his own round figure.
Ahhhhhhhh, Mom!
There are monsters!!
"Don't be afraid..."
Kindaichi felt that what he blurted out was a little strange.
...Doesn't this prove that macho men look scary?
He quickly adjusted his words and introduced the tough guy:
"This is Takeo Gouda, the new club member. The guy over there is Daichi Sato, a second-year student. He's the volleyball club manager."
Hinata Aoi cooperated by taking a step to the side, exposing Sato completely.
"Hello, senior!" The strong man bowed obediently.
He said that he seemed to have forgotten something just now. When you first meet your seniors, you should bow first, but when he saw Kindaichi, he was too nervous and just extended his hand...
Make one now!
"...What are you doing?" Kindaichi looked at the muscular man bowing back and forth between him and Sato, and felt that he was starting to get scared too.
Hinata Aoi felt that she had nothing to do with this scene, so she turned around to leave, but her eyes met with Kageyama Tobio who was still secretly looking at the macho man.
...Isn't this enough asking?
After thinking for a moment, Hinata Aoi grabbed Kindaichi's clothes to bring him back to his senses from the macho man's magical behavior.
"Let Kageyama-senpai take Gouda-san."
Instead of paying so much attention to Takeo Gouda and making him so uneasy, it would be better to let Kageyama lead Takeo directly, and let Kindaichi relax and train seriously.
"But coach..." Kindaichi was a little tempted, but also a little embarrassed.
After all, this is the task assigned to him by the coach.
Hinata Aoi knew as soon as she heard it that Kindaichi's sense of responsibility was misplaced.
It's not a big deal.
"The coach won't ask. Even if he does, he can just say that Kageyama-senpai insisted on coaching Gouda-san, and that he won't train properly without him."
A very fake reason.
But other people didn't say it, Hinata Aoi really had no psychological pressure in dragging Kageyama Tobio into the water, and she didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt for passing the buck.
Of course, Kageyama wasn't really to be blamed. It was a rare joke by Hinata Aoi, although Kindaichi didn't get it.
Everyone in this volleyball club is too afraid of the coach, or too rule-abiding. They don't know how to adapt, nor do they dare to adapt.
What could go wrong with such a small thing as training a new employee? Isn't it enough to just teach him clearly?
Even if something really happened, could the coach still eat them?
"You're the captain, so just delegate this task to Kageyama-senpai. You'll just need to inspect the results when the time comes."
Kindaichi only has this one year to show off his power as captain. When he goes to high school, he will become a junior again. Now that he has the power, he should use it quickly.
Taking on all the chores yourself may not necessarily lead to any promotion or reward, but it will definitely make you tired.
It is certainly possible to continue to let Kindaichi lead the tough guys, but Kageyama will not give up his attention to Takeshi Gouda, and it will also delay Kindaichi's training time, which is obviously not the best solution.
And Hinata Aoi estimated that Kageyama Tobio and Gouda Takeo were both naive types who spoke their minds and didn't lie, so they would probably get along well.
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Seeing Hinata Aoi's determination, Kindaichi hesitantly accepted her suggestion.
If Iwaizumi-senpai were here, he probably wouldn't think this is something that needs to be wrestled with.
…
As Hinata Aoi expected, Kageyama Tobio and Gouda Takeo really got along well. They were both not very smart in studying, but they knew every rule of volleyball very well.
Kageyama demonstrated some basic volleyball techniques to Takeo and asked him to practice on his own.
Seeing the macho man fighting well, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
This body type is good in every way. It is suitable for blocking and attacking. However, I don't know if the macho guy's movement speed is fast enough, and if his jumping ability and air time are strong enough. If his body is too bulky, he may easily block his teammates during the game.
As long as this problem can be avoided, Takeo Gouda will definitely become the main force of the volleyball team!
Kageyama Tobio's admiration for talent cascaded down like a waterfall, and he silently placed high hopes on Gouda Takeo.
Kindaichi, who came specially to see the teaching results, felt relieved.
I never thought that there would be a day when Tobio Kageyama would be so suitable to be a coach for others. I couldn't help but look at him with admiration, and I felt completely relieved and returned to my position to continue training.
At the same time, Hinata Aoi was also participating in the volleyball club's training, training with several lazy teammates.
The basic requirement she had when choosing a club was that she didn't need to socialize a lot and wouldn't have any unnecessary contact with members outside the club.
After meeting the previous requirement, the next step is to give her time to exercise and maintain a strong body to prevent accidents.
Her current job as a manager still allows her to find some free time, and she uses this time to train with the team members.
You can watch your teammates train while also ensuring your own exercise time, having the best of both worlds.
Moreover, training with boys who like to slack off can also bring them some gender pressure.
Girls who are physically weaker than boys can do so well and are so motivated, so how can they have the face to slack off?
She would follow the basic physical training such as squats, sit-ups, long-distance running and sprints. After training, she would find a place to stretch and relax, and then continue to work as a manager.
When there is a shortage of players, she will help pass the ball or block the ball with precise angles and a flexible body. Some teammates are already arguing about whether she is more suitable to be a setter or a libero.
Kageyama Tobio no longer persuaded her to leave the men's volleyball team, and even wanted to recommend her to the women's volleyball team. He finally understood why the women's volleyball team members stopped Hinata Aoi from joining the men's volleyball team during the recruitment.
With this physical fitness, they are fully capable of competing, but they are not qualified to participate. Kageyama feels sorry for Hinata Aoi and the women's volleyball team.
Hinata Aoi has no regrets, nor does she need others to feel sorry for her.
She has lost a choice in life, but it is not a necessary choice. Now that a good candidate like Takeo has come to share Kageyama's attention, she is happy to see it happen.
During training, time passed by minute by minute——
I don't know whose cell phone rang.
It was the first time that Takeo Goda came to the volleyball club. He didn't bring his own sportswear, and there was no suitable size for him in the gym. So he took off his jacket, folded it neatly, and put it on the rest seat, and played volleyball there in his shirt.
The cell phone in my coat pocket is buzzing.
When it rang for the first time, he didn't realize it was his own cell phone ringtone.
It wasn't until someone nearby reminded him that he hurried over, jumped into the corner as if holding a bomb, and answered the phone:
"Hey, Ah, Ah Sand, I'm in the volleyball club."
His best brother, Makoto Sunakawa, asked him to go home with him after the work was done.
But this was his first day in the volleyball club, and he felt embarrassed to leave early.
"Yeah, go home first."
On the other side——
Hinata Aoi brought the team members' water bottles out on a cart to get water.
This tank of water is not enough for her to draw by herself. Fortunately, she has become proficient in judging how much water is left in the tank and how much water should be filled in each person's water bottle, so there will be no situation of "three cups of water for four leaders".
"Excuse me, do you know how to get to the volleyball club?"
Hinata Aoi looked in the direction of the voice and saw a handsome boy appear in front of her.
