Chapter 20: Shiratorizawa's Tactics Are Terrifying, The Last Golden Week...
The last day of Golden Week.
Since Shiratorizawa had to rush to Miyagi in the afternoon, Coach Beiming Island and Coach Washi Takumi discussed and decided to have the last practice match in the morning, and then conduct targeted training for the rest of the time.
After getting the plan, the people in Shiratorizawa began to warm up, and on the way they discovered that there seemed to be a red-haired person on the side of Kanagawa No. 1.
"It should be the manager," Ohira Shion speculated, "He doesn't have a training suit on."
Although the opponents who played against them yesterday could not recognize each other immediately, they were all wearing red training uniforms with numbers, so it was easy to tell who was the number one starter for Kanagawa.
Especially the free man No. 11, who seemed to have been staring at Jiancheng for a long time.
Although he didn't show much expression, his fighting spirit could be seen at a glance. Later, he even stood with his hands on his hips and trained his juniors, but was interrupted by the red-haired boy who joined in.
"Here! It's Ichiro-senpai!" A sunny smile.
“…”
Senior, so you're a first-year? Looking at the first-years in Shiratorizawa, there don't seem to be any lively types at all.
"good,"
"I'm so envious," said Senmi. Shiratorizawa's team was originally managed by a third-year senior, but due to the pressure of further studies, she eventually chose to retire. So, they're currently managerless, and some things, like distributing towels and water, have to be handled by the team members themselves. Plus, the other team is completely sunny! He also wants a lively junior!
People don't share the same joys and sorrows, but the atmosphere at Kanagawa Daiichi is extremely harmonious.
"Tanjiro!" Kanagawa's top outside hitter smiled and put his arm around his opponent's shoulder. "Have you settled your family affairs?"
"Yeah, I'm fine now." The young man known as Tanjiro had a mark on his forehead that looked like it had been burned by fire, but it didn't affect his appearance. He first poked the outside hitter in the abdomen to get him to let go, then handed him the water in his hand, looking somewhat helpless. "Kamiyabe-senpai, are you done with your stretching? Coach Beimingyu is watching you."
Kamiyabe:…
Is this true? The young deputy attacker glanced at him and stood at attention.
So while the manager on the opposite side was skillfully dividing the water, there was dead silence on Shiratorizawa's side.
"Is it the eldest son?"
“…Is that so?”
"I feel like it can control some unstable elements." Shirabu Kenjiro turned his gaze to Kenjo Shinichi, who was lowering his head and seemed to be thinking about something.
The other person was wearing a blue vest number 9 and was squatting on a small plastic stool that seemed to be borrowed from Kanagawa Daiichi. He had an extremely serious expression and was staring at the manager opposite.
Shirabu Kenjiro:.
Sometimes it was really hard for him to understand what was going on in Jiancheng Xinyi's mind.
As if he had noticed Baibu's gaze, the unstable element Jiancheng Jun said:?
"Parsnips?"
The player looked confused.
The player suddenly realized something.
"Don't worry," the farmer said, holding up a towel, trying to express his sincerity. "We can't grow red cabbage this season."
"It's not summer yet."
“…”
"Oh." Shirabu Kenjiro didn't listen to what Jiancheng was talking about. He just skillfully shifted his gaze and then said perfunctorily.
——From this bird's-eye view, Jiancheng looks so stupid.
However, this strange emotion did not last long before it ended. The warm-up was over, and the training match between Kanagawa and Shiratorizawa was about to begin.
Kanagawa's first starter.
Coach Beimeishima used the regular May-Day lineup, with the first serve going to the setter. Kanagawa's serve was not a strong point but not a weakness at the same time, it could only be said to be average. The first ball was smoothly received by Soekawa Jin, and the first pass was in place. At this moment, Shiratorizawa was standing in the front row with Shirabu Kenjiro, who passed the ball to Ohira Shishine who had already jumped after touching the ball. To be honest, the position was very good, but it was a pity that Tokito Ichiro caught the ball with a diving jump.
"Immortal River!"
"I'll do it!" As soon as the ball was passed to the front row, his eyes looked for a breakthrough point in Shiratorizawa's field, and then he pressed his fingers down.
"Bang——"
Kanagawa first, 1:0
Kawanishi Taichi didn't play in the first game. He was replaced by Shiratorizawa's third-year outside hitter, Sato Yuki. At that moment, Kawanishi Taichi exclaimed, "What a beautiful little diagonal shot."
I have to say that the long-haired libero's first pass was spot on and very accurate.
"One touch!" Tian Tong blocked the ball, and Jian Cheng behind him quickly filled the position and then touched it lightly, "Ushijima!"
The person who was called jumped high.
…
So who should be stopped in this position?
Shiratorizawa had come to training camp before, but never like this. Kamiyabe thought as he paid attention to the attacker's position.
Flashy.
And the opposing setter has a terrible personality. Of course, I'm not referring to the one who moved to the back row, but the one with blue hair in the front row. The setter is the organizer, yes, but there's no need to use so many second attacks, right?! They were tricked by the second attack several times on the first day of the game, so now they have to guard against Shiratorizawa's main attacker's heavy spikes while also guarding against the setter.
Kamiyabe felt like he was about to vomit.
Lanniu Island was already tiring!
"Ushijima!"
Following the shout of the blue-haired guy on the opposite side, Kamiyabe and two other team members jumped together - a three-person block.
Empty, empty?!
Kamiyabe turned his head suddenly and saw the other main attacker on the opposite side, Jin Soekawa, jumping up.
"Ichiro saves the ball!!!"
It's too late,
The sound of the volleyball hitting the ground was particularly ironic.
The ball did not reach Ushijima Wakari's hands just now, but seemed to stay in the air for a few seconds, and Jin Soekawa, who was below the volleyball, jumped and spiked it a little slowly.
It perfectly matched his hitting point, and the touch was exactly the same...
Even the time for hesitation seemed to be taken into consideration.
The whistle sounded.
Shiratorizawa 1:1
Kamiyabe:…
Kamiyabe looked dazedly at the blue-haired setter standing in front of him.
Kamiyabe: ...all the setters have heart!
Aren’t you calling yourself Ushijima?!
Meanwhile, on Shiratorizawa's side, Tendou Kaku bumped into Ushijima and said, "Well done, Jari-kun! You completely outmaneuvered the opponent."
Ushijima Wakari was silent for two seconds, then said, "No... I really thought it would be passed on to me."
Tiantong hummed twice, "Okay, we scored, didn't we?"
"Get back to your positions!" After a few words of casual chat, Coach Washi Takumi's loud voice came over, "Tendo! Ushijima! Stop talking!"
…
The player encountered bats on the 32nd floor of the mine.
The player subconsciously dodged.
So in reality, we saw the farmer dodge the opportunity ball from Kanagawa No. 1 and then the ball flew to Shiratorizawa.
Kanagawa No. 1:.
Shiratorizawa:.
The volleyball rolled twice on the ground and then stopped, and the air fell into a strange silence for a moment.
Shiratorizawa: ...
Shiratorizawa called a timeout.
"What the hell are you doing, Jiancheng!" The loud voice of the eagle master Danzhi made everyone, including the student who was not playing in Kanagawa, afraid to speak. "Where are your hands! Where are your hands! Can't you understand how to catch the ball?!"
Spit was flying everywhere.
Then everyone's eyes turned strangely in the direction of Kenjo Shinichi.
The blue-haired boy turned his neck, and for some reason his face was filled with a guilty look.
Anyway, this guy is obviously guilty.
Kenjo Shinichi: “…Ah.”
What the hell is this?
Even someone like Hayato Yamagata found this unbelievable. Could it be that there was something wrong with the younger generation's brains?
Eagle Carpenter Danzhi: "Keep your head down, you idiot!"
His hands were clenched into fists.
farmer:……
farmer:.
The farmer was in a much better mood.
After dodging the annoying bat, why is there still an attack from Lewis?
The health reduction is not much, but it is very insulting.
Farmers, please stop going into the mines!
Of course, the eagle craftsman Danzhi didn't want him to continue -
"Go back and do 30 diving laps for me." Coach Shiratorizawa gave the order coldly.
In short, Kenjo Shinichi was replaced in the second game.
So, seeing the person whom he regarded as his rival sitting on the stool with a dull face, Ichiro fell silent.
Tokito Ichirō: ...
Tokito Ichiro's expression went blank for a moment.
So why on earth was he mad at the idiot yesterday?
Doesn't this show that he's also stupid? Shiratorizawa's tactics are so terrifying!
*
Shiratorizawa Academy, Volleyball Hall No. 2.
Daily training was in full swing. Midorikawa Yuki was doing personal exercises on side falls and diving. After completing a set, he sat on the edge of the court to rest. Just as he drank a few sips of water, a shadow fell on his head.
Midorikawa Yuki subconsciously prepared to look up, but the person who came handed him a letter first.
"Classmate," her voice was gentle, "could you please pass this to Shinichi?"
Midorikawa Yuki reacted for a few seconds: ...
Midorikawa Yuki: "Kenjo-kun?"
"I don't think I saw him. Didn't he come back today?" The voice was smiling. "Yes, please give it to Kenjo Shinichi."
"Oh, okay," Midorikawa Yuki took the letter and explained while looking up, "He should be back in the afternoon. If you have time, you can..." It can wait a while. The unfinished words were swallowed in his throat like a tape, and what caught his eyes was the same dark blue hair as Kenjo Shinichi.
There is a small mole on the side of his lip, and his eyes are a completely different brown-red color from Kenjo Shinichi's, but as soon as you see him, you know that they are definitely blood relatives.
——“Blood ties that cannot be ignored”
Midorikawa Yuki opened his eyes wide.
He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word. He could only stammer and ask, "Do you want some water, Jiancheng, Jiancheng-classmate...?" in an uncertain tone.
The man in front of him, who was suspected to be Jiancheng Xinyi's brother, smiled gently: "No, thank you."
It seems to be the complete opposite, a tolerant and polite character.
"Yuichi!" someone outside the volleyball hall shouted, "It's time to go! The coach is calling for assembly." (Note 1)
The boy called "Yuichi" seemed to be about to say something else, but after hearing this, a hint of helplessness appeared on his face. Finally, he nodded to Midorikawa Yuki, who was still sitting on the ground in a daze, and said, "Sorry, I'm sorry to bother you anyway."
Midorikawa Yuki was left alone, staring at the other person's back, lost in strange contemplation.
——So is Kenjo-kun the older brother or the younger brother?
——After all, the other “Sword City” just now is completely in the shape of a reliable adult!
