Yuzuru smiled as he took the support flag from Sonoko and waved it gently: "Thank you for your support. Without your cheers, I probably wouldn't have won."
"Of course! I'm Nan's most loyal cheerleader!"
Upon hearing this, Sonoko immediately raised her chin smugly.
While they were exchanging compliments, the president and other members of the Teitan Kendo Club also gathered around and offered their congratulations to Hanyu Kusunoki.
"Yuzuru, you're amazing! Our Teitan Kendo Club has really made us proud this time!" the club president said excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.
Yuzuru Hanyu humbly replied, "This is all thanks to everyone; I just did my best."
The club president quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Oh, don't be modest. Everyone has seen your strength. We're counting on you for the rest of the competition!"
"Don't worry, I'll do my best."
Yuzuru nodded and smiled in agreement.
His original goal for this competition was to win the championship. Of course, it's not so much that his goal was to win the championship, but rather that he wanted to give the championship as a special gift to someone.
This represents a small, "not excessive" wish.
After the competition, the draw for the semi-finals was also completed quickly. Teitan School will face off against Toto Izumi School at Osaka Gymnasium next Thursday, and the winner will advance to the finals.
Aside from the coach from Quanxin School, whose face was so gloomy it looked like it could drip water, everyone else was quite satisfied with the result.
After all, this means that Dongdu has already secured a spot in the finals.
...
A Li's house.
Conan and Heiji Hattori, two best buddies, are also discussing the upcoming national college kendo tournament.
"Hattori, I remember you participated in the last competition, right?"
Conan looked at Heiji Hattori and asked.
Upon hearing Conan's words, Heiji Hattori seemed to recall something unpleasant, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily: "That's right, I participated."
"You won?"
"We didn't win..."
"Um...sorry."
Conan was a little embarrassed, not expecting to accidentally reopen his best friend's wounds.
Just then, Professor Agasa, carrying a fruit platter, came out of the kitchen and, overhearing their conversation, chuckled and said, "I remember last time, it seems like one of our schools from Touto won the National High School Kendo Tournament. I think it was Cho-Cho from Izumi Academy..."
"Okita Souji."
Hattori Heiji picked up where the professor left off, his tone disdainful, and then said with a look of indignation, "Okita was just lucky. I didn't get enough rest before the match, otherwise he definitely wouldn't have been able to beat me."
When it comes to swordsmanship, Hattori Heiji has never been afraid of anyone.
However, Conan felt that his best friend was just being stubborn.
Of course, it's best to just think about these things; saying them aloud can easily hurt feelings, since the other party is still your creditor.
He coughed lightly, changing the subject: "So, are you going to participate in this competition?"
"Of course I'll participate! This is my perfect chance for revenge!"
Hattori Heiji picked up an apple from the table and took a vicious bite, as if he could already see the scene of his revenge and final victory.
Conan thought for a moment and said, "But I heard from Ran that Yuzuru Hanyu seems to be participating in this competition as well?"
Upon hearing this name, the living room suddenly fell silent.
Professor Agasa also curiously leaned over, "Did Yuzuru participate too? How did he do?"
"They should be in the semifinals by now..."
Conan, thinking about what Ran had said at home yesterday that she was going to accompany Yuzuru to the quarterfinals today, said somewhat uncertainly.
Although I'm reluctant to admit it, that guy is indeed very strong. Otherwise, he and Hattori, two famous detectives from Kanto and Kansai, wouldn't have been unable to defeat him even when they teamed up, and instead, they were tricked so badly.
Thinking back on those experiences, Conan felt like crying.
Heiji Hattori, however, did not think so.
He straightened up and said confidently, "Don't worry, I admit that Yuzuru's high-tech equipment is indeed impressive, but he can't use it during the competition!"
"That's true."
Conan nodded, agreeing with his friend's statement.
Unlike private situations during a competition, where everyone is watching, they don't believe that Yuzuru Hanyu would blatantly cheat using high technology. What is the referee doing?
This is a kendo competition, not a science and technology exhibition hall.
The two great detectives still firmly believe that all the abilities Hanyu Nan has demonstrated are high-tech.
After the incident at the Twilight Villa, the two returned and discussed it for a long time, repeatedly reasoning and analyzing various materials and clues, and finally concluded that the other party was using a new type of technology.
Actually, you can't really blame them.
As the protagonists of the Detective Conan world, Conan and Heiji Hattori are incredibly determined.
A true warrior of materialism.
I firmly believe that all phenomena in the world can be explained by science.
In addition, since the two were originally detectives, they were sharp-minded and prone to overthinking. They would automatically associate the abilities that Yuzuru Nana had displayed with their own minds and then come up with a plausible reason.
Yuzuru Hanyu also bears some of the blame for this.
It's because some of his props are indeed technological products, only they come from the 22nd century.
Conan and Heiji Hattori had initially considered whether there was another side to this world, but when those high-tech gadgets appeared, the two best friends instantly solidified their thoughts.
Sure enough, there was a mysterious and massive high-tech organization behind Hanyu Nan that was at least 50 years ahead of its time.
