Jun Uozumi was completely stunned when he saw the injured Takenori Akagi.
I didn't mean to elbow him!
I really didn't mean to!
how so?
Although that's what Jun Uozumi thought in his heart, the scene of him elbowing Takenori Akagi just now was seen differently by others.
What everyone saw was Jun Uozumi deliberately elbowing Takenori Akagi!
And it was clearly a malicious foul!
At this moment, everyone hurriedly gathered around.
Coach Taoka of Ryonan rushed to Akagi Takenori's side even before the players from Shohoku, and hurriedly asked, "Akagi, are you alright?"
Before Akagi Takenori could answer, Coach Taoka hurriedly shouted towards the Ryonan team's bench, "Quick, get a few people here! Help him to the infirmary! Hurry!"
Coach Taoka was genuinely anxious and concerned about Takenori Akagi's injury.
The Shohoku team came all the way here for an exchange match, and they were led by Coach Anzai, a big shot, yet they ended up injuring their captain. That's just unacceptable.
However, one thing is quite surprising.
That is, Coach Taoka did not reprimand Jun Uozumi.
You should know that Coach Taoka will yell at any player who makes a mistake!
Akira Sendoh is a typical example. Coach Taoka doesn't care whether Akira Sendoh is an ace player or the core player and soul of Ryonan. If you dare to be late, I dare to scold you!
But the situation is different now. Such collisions are common in basketball games. It's hard to say whether it was intentional or not, since the game has become very intense. Some people might get carried away and unconsciously make large movements. He might not have meant to, but he still bumped into someone.
Of course, committing a foul will be recorded by the referee, which is the corresponding punishment.
However, Coach Taoka would not reprimand Jun Uozumi in front of everyone!
As for what Jun Uozumi wants to do, whether he wants to apologize or something else, that's up to him. At least Coach Taoka won't ask him to apologize to Takenori Akagi.
This is probably a way of showing respect to the players.
"Hey, Akagi, you..."
Jun Uozumi looked at Takenori Akagi with a hesitant expression. He seemed to feel a little guilty. He had only called out Takenori Akagi's name, but he seemed unable to say the words of apology.
Just as Jun Uozumi was about to say something further...
Haruko Akagi rushed over, "Brother, are you alright?"
When Haruko Akagi saw so much blood flowing from her brother's eye, her eyes immediately reddened, and she asked Takenori Akagi with a sob in her voice if he was alright.
At this moment, Ayako was wiping the blood off Akagi Takenori's face with tissues and using medical supplies to treat his wounds.
Takenori Akagi said to Coach Taoka, "Coach Taoka, don't worry, I'm fine. I'll just go to the medical room to get it treated later."
Then Takenori Akagi said to Haruko Akagi, "Haruko, I'm fine, you don't need to worry."
However, Haruko Akagi clearly saw that her brother's eye wound was very serious. She was furious and glared directly at the culprit, Jun Uozumi!
Haruko Akagi angrily rebuked, "You deliberately hit someone! How could you do this? You've gone too far!"
Jun Uozumi felt guilty, as he didn't want to see Takenori Akagi like this. Seeing his sister so heartbroken, even though she scolded him like that, Jun Uozumi could only endure it.
But the next moment, Jun Uozumi's heart began to race.
Sakuragi Hanamichi, with his red hair, stood firmly behind Akagi Haruko, his face filled with murderous intent!
Not only that, but behind Sakuragi Hanamichi stood four students who didn't look like the type to study seriously.
Jun Uozumi, who had initially felt a little guilty, now had very complicated feelings.
A surge of anger welled up inside him!
That's right, it's anger!
Jun Uozumi, who injured Takenori Akagi, is now angry!
Uozumi Jun angrily said, "What's going on? I didn't do it on purpose! Why are you all looking at me like that?"
It turns out that Jun Uozumi not only sensed the hostility of Sakuragi Hanamichi and his group, but he also felt that everyone around him, except for the Ryonan team players, was looking at him strangely.
It seems everyone is blaming him, complaining about him, and is hostile towards him!
This made Jun Uozumi very unhappy!
I didn't do it on purpose, and I want to apologize to Takenori Akagi, but why is everyone targeting me like this?
At this moment, Takamiya Nozomi said sarcastically, "Even someone like me who doesn't understand basketball can see that that move was clearly a fighting move. Wasn't it intentional? Tch~ How dare you say that?"
Oonan Yuji squinted and said, "Yeah! They beat someone up like that and didn't even apologize."
The back-and-forth between Takamiya Nozomi and Oonan Yuji fueled Jun Uozumi's anger, making him want to rush over to the two guys and give them a good talking to!
Just then, Coach Taoka realized the seriousness of the problem!
If this continues, the conflict will escalate and may even turn into a fight!
Violence must not occur here!
Coach Taoka looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi and asked, "Sakuragi-kun, are these people your friends?"
Yohei Mito immediately chimed in, "Coach Taoka, this has nothing to do with Sakuragi Hanamichi. We're just ordinary spectators expressing our opinions because we don't like certain things. What? Are we not even allowed to say a word?"
Takamiya Nozomi immediately chimed in, "So you're allowed to hit people, but we're not allowed to speak? Ryonan really knows how to play games!"
Yuji Oonan and Chuichiro Noma both said, "Yes! Yes! We really need to promote Ryonan properly when we get back!"
The scene before him made Coach Taoka feel very troubled. The mess that strange woman had made hadn't been cleared up yet, and now a group of delinquent youths had jumped out to cause trouble. How was he supposed to explain this to the school?
After much thought, Coach Taoka decided to start with Sakuragi Hanamichi. He could tell that Mito Yohei and his three delinquent friends must be Sakuragi Hanamichi's friends.
Coach Taoka said anxiously, "Sakuragi, we're playing an exhibition match! Do you want to start a fight? Do you know the consequences of fighting here? Your Shohoku team will be suspended because of this!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi understands the possibility of injuries during two-on-one basketball games, but his relationship with the gorilla is ultimately closer than that with Uozumi Jun.
Moreover, seeing how heartbroken Akagi Haruko is right now, Sakuragi Hanamichi will definitely stand behind her. In addition, he also hopes that Uozumi Jun will say something kind and apologize.
Men always hope to be the hero who protects the woman they love.
