Chapter 54

"Qingcheng's current double setter completely limits Kuabe."

Jing Dashan's players gathered around the coach, expecting the opponent to use the same surprising moves as coach Qingcheng to reverse the current disadvantage.

"Their current double setter won't last long, it just leaves us with few opportunities."

Iizuna straightened his hair tie, feeling a little irritated.

——It was precisely because Jing Dashan chose to target the second pass that the opponent changed their current routine. They are now reaping the consequences.

It wasn't that Iizuna couldn't see the flaws in Qingcheng's tactics, but he was at his wits' end.

It can be seen that Qingcheng players are a bit rusty in their coordination, and will only use it when Kusanabe rotates to the back row. The rest of the time, Oikawa served as the setter, and all the offensive pressure fell on Nakakuru and Iwaizumi.

Now Iizuna can only hope that the opponent's new No. 6 player will get off the field as soon as possible so that Jing Dashan can have a chance to counterattack.

"

Teacher Tianhai! We almost won the first game!"

Zhonghe was a little tired from attacking many times in the second half, and now he was seizing the time to suck energy jelly. Looking at the scoreboard that is about to win, I feel a little excited.

Tianhai looked at the scoreboard.

23:21, leading by two points.

"Jing Dashan will definitely not let you get two points to win easily next time, so be careful."

Tianhai was still a little lucky in his heart

- the double setter tactic was used so smoothly, and there is no super high school level player with Jing Dashan now. The main attacker has a great relationship with the libero.

Kusukawa replaced Maebashi, and Qingcheng's defensive ability dropped a lot. Once there is an ace attacker on Jingda Mountain, the defense will collapse before the double setter tactic can take effect.

And if Jing Dashan had one more free agent, Qingcheng's offense would not be so smooth.

"Fortunately."

"Sneeze! -"

In the stands not far away, before Gusen could cover his mouth with a tissue, he sneezed unexpectedly.

"A chill...Who's talking about me?"

'It's over! Thinking of

Sakuza on the side, Kosen was ready to face the opponent's black face.

Just when he turned his face, the young man with curly black hair next to him also covered his mouth, seeming to sneeze simultaneously with him.

Sakuza took out two alcohol wipes from his pocket, handed one to Gu Sen, and wiped his fingers hard.

"Who is secretly thinking about us..."

.

"Welcome back to the match scene of Group C and Group D!

The match will continue!"

With a score of 23:21, Jing Dashan can advance by two points. Catch up with Aoba Castle West. And with only two points left, Qingcheng can win the game!

This round serves for Aoba Jonishi!

At a critical juncture, Iwaizumi, who was a little nervous, concentrated on preparing to jump serve

. Now, except for Kusukawa in Qingcheng, who chose to jump serve, the rest of the main players have also reached the level of jump serve per person under the supervision of three coaches.

"Come on! Xiaoyan~ beat them to pieces!" Oikawa turned around and shouted to Iwaizumi at the service point.

Hearing Oikawa's laughing voice off guard, Iwaizumi shook his hand and almost missed the ball.

Oikawa looked at the black anger on Iwaizumi's face, pretended that he had done nothing, and quickly turned away.

He waved his hand and complained to Iizuna on the other side of the net, "Is our main attacker very fierce?"

Iizuna's expression was hard to explain after seeing the whole process.

During the training together, Oikawa behaved very seriously, and it was rare to see him look this childish. He even had a hunch

- the elementary school boy-like character in front of him might be Oikawa.

This made Iizuna, who had secretly placed Oikawa in his mind as a "rival of both friends and foes," was a little embarrassed.

He suppressed his overthinking and said sternly to Oikawa,

"We won't let you get the next two points."

Oikawa waved his hands for a moment, "Qingcheng is bound to win these two points.

" The conversation seemed to take a long time, but in fact it only lasted a few seconds in the ever-changing situation.

"Crack!——"

It's Iwaizumi's serve!

The audience's attention is focused to the top. Even Coach Irihata and Tenkai on the coaching bench sat up straight and leaned forward to look at the playing field.

'If we can score a direct goal... this game won't be a problem anymore. '

Tianhai couldn't help but have such thoughts in his mind. But because of this, he specifically did not say anything to Iwaizumi.

At this time, increasing the pressure on the players may lead to poor performance.

Only Oikawa who understands Iwaizumi will use special methods to relieve him of stress at this time.

"Ashu... Iwaizumi, can you?"

Even Shiyi and Tianhai kept their voices down when communicating - even though they knew that no matter how loud the sound was, they would not disturb the people on the field, Shiyi chose to speak softly.

Tianhai does not understand the pillars of the world on the original destiny line.

But as a system that communicates with world consciousness, Shiyi vaguely knows that the original Qingcheng has never stepped onto the orange ground today.

The more this happens, the more nervous Shi Yi becomes - where can Qingcheng go?

Iwaizumi, who was on the field, could not think about anything, and his only eyes were on his opponents on the field... and his companions.

"Don't worry about the failed serve, we are still behind you."

He saw encouragement from Oikawa's smiling eyes.

At some point, Oikawa, who needed him to push forward, was already far ahead of him. Looking at the white palm stretched out in front of him, Oikawa wanted to drag him forward...

"Hey, I won't hurt my teammates."

"Bang——!"

"Aojo Iwaizumi's jump serve passed the blocker and came to No. 2 In front of the main attacker Shunsuke Masahito! No. 2 caught it but the force was too great and the ball flew out!"

Watching the ball flying out of the court, Jing Dashan libero rushed out without hesitation, and the obstacles on the sidelines were covered. No matter, I only have eyes for the ball.

"Can Yuuto Uchiyama of the Free People's Congress receive it?" Ah! "

Amidst the exclamations, the ball flew up and reached the hands of Domoto who received the ball.

"Don't even think about dunking it! "Suddenly a pair of hands crossed the net.

Zhonghe, who had been observing for a long time on the sidelines, slapped the ball hard.

"Beep--"

The whistle for an emergency timeout sounded.

"Are you okay? ! Fight bravely! "Eito Takao, who was closest to Ouchiyama Yuuto, quickly stepped forward to help. Iizuna

stepped forward and squatted down, carefully examining Ouchiyama's swollen ankle.

The accompanying team doctor quickly stepped forward to observe,

"There is no fracture, the sprain is here. After two months of recovery, there will be no problem and I can continue playing.”

Yuuto Ouchiyama asked hurriedly: "We are reaching the match point now..."

Can I continue to

play? Coach Jingdashan interrupted him and said next: "You rushed out. It's just a sprain now, no fracture." That's a good result!"

He felt a little sour in his heart. Looking at the libero's unwilling expression, he motioned to the substitute players to help Ouchiyama Yuuto to the infirmary.

"I'm sorry... I couldn't score the ball you passed."

Yuuto Ouchiyama vaguely heard a sentence before leaving. Captain Doben's voice was trembling.

Injury is a common occurrence on the court. But Iizuna felt dizzy as he watched his teammates go off the field.

His forehead throbbed, and he immediately bent over to hold his head.

"Iizuna, are you okay?" Kusanabe saw that he looked wrong and immediately asked - Jingda Mountain cannot be without anyone anymore.

"I'm fine." He stood up and mustered up his energy.

Just seeing the backs of my teammates after the game made me feel so sad and unwilling.

.Soon

, Jing Dashan came on as a free agent, and the referee announced that the game would continue.

Although Jing Dashan's fate as a libero had nothing to do with Qingcheng players, Ueda still expressed his apology to captain Jing Dashan.

Tianhai also bowed his head to coach Jing Dashan to apologize.

His eyes darkened slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh again as he thought of the various injuries that had occurred to the volleyball players around him in his previous life.

"The score is currently 24:21, which is the match point in Qingcheng! And the right to serve goes to the No. 1 player from Jingdi Mountain.

What will happen next?"

The auditorium was completely calm, and several cameras were on Aim at Domoto Dashora on the field.

"It's him." Coach Mizoguchi still remembers the captain Jing Dashan who was very strong in jump shots and jump serves.

Domoto thought of the injured Ouchiyama Yuuto, feeling angry and guilty at the same time.

He needs this point so much to give the team hope of winning.

Oikawa saw this, and the moment Michimoto served the ball out of his hand, he loudly reminded Machii

- "It's a float ball!"

Before Machii's mind could react, his body had already followed Oikawa's words and carefully caught the float ball.

"Got it!" The whole place was in an uproar.

Oikawa's voice didn't contain any volume.

Even the audience on the second floor who are closer can hear it. Naturally, it was clearly captured by the camera.

"Dudu——"

The score was 25:21, and Aoba Joxi won its first victory.

"Aoba Jonishi!!" "Ahhhh, that's awesome, Oikawa!"

"How did player No. 8 Oikawa know that player Michimoto would choose to use the jump ball?"

The commentator on the stage was a little curious

- that sound was a lot Everyone heard it.

At the same time, Machii, who came to drink water, also asked the same question. "Oikawa, how did you know he was going to jump serve? He obviously only used it in the opening game, and he chose to jump serve the rest of the time."

He almost forgot that his opponent, Domoto, could also jump serve, and in such a short time , how did Oikawa react?

Everyone around them was very curious, and even the referee not far away pricked up his ears to listen. Oikawa explained,

"Although he only used jump shots at the beginning, he scored the first two goals.

On the contrary, many jump shots behind him were missed. At the match point, his teammates were injured, and he did not save the ball for his teammates. Dunk - under various pressures, he will 90% choose the floating ball with a high scoring rate."

Oikawa was talking, his eyes turned, and he suddenly looked at Tianhai. Seeing the anticipation and encouragement in the other person's eyes, he suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment that he hadn't felt in a long time.

"It's so similar..."

When everyone present looked at Oikawa saying "90% probability", their faces were filled with an expression that was almost the same as Tenkai's analysis of tactics.

Coach Irihata made up his mind -

he must be optimistic about Tianhai and never let him be snatched away by coaches from other schools.

After all, he had already anticipated how popular the Qingcheng players and coaches would be after the Spring High School.

·

The people in Qingcheng and the referee who heard the inside story knew the reason for Oikawa's guess, but the audience outside the court did not know.

Aoba University Hospital, Sendai.

"Hey! Kageyama, how do you think Oikawa-senpai knew this?"

Hinata was so anxious that she wanted to get into the TV and ask Oikawa how he guessed that sentence.

Just turning around, the two "Shadow Mountains" looked at him together, causing his body clinging to the TV to freeze and sit back obediently.

Kageyama Kazuyo rubbed Hinata's head

- Hinata, who they had met once before, was Tobio's recent volleyball practice partner. Sometimes after practice, he would accompany Xiao Feixiong to his ward to spend some time with himself.

Kageyama will become much more lively when he is with Hinata. This made Kageyama Kazuyo, who was a little worried at first, feel relieved.

It's just that at this time, Kageyama Tobio didn't condemn Hinata for lying on the TV as usual.

He stared at the screen intently, not knowing what to think.

"Hey, Kageyama. You're not thinking that Oikawa-senpai will be difficult to surpass, are you?"

Hinata stood between Kageyama and grabbed Kageyama Tobio's clothes, "I told you, I'm here Now, you are the strongest!"

"So what if Oikawa-senpai can become the champion of spring high school! We will definitely defeat them."

Kageyama Tobio grabbed Hinata's wrist and wanted him to let go of the hand that was grabbing his clothes.

Hinata didn't notice Kageyama Tobio's face getting darker and darker, and continued,

"If you ask me, you should come to Karasuno with me!

Ushijima-senpai didn't tell you that Coach Washi was recently raped by Aibe-senpai and Semi-senpai's two "self" setters were so angry.

You applied for a pre-referral exemption. Coach Washiji would definitely not agree

to let you take the Shiratorizawa test, hahaha, you don't learn English. The Japanese can’t pass the exam.

”

"And now Daichi-senpai said that Coach Karasuno has returned early, and their training has improved their abilities even more."

Hinata really wants to bring Kageyama to Karasuno.

Hearing this, Kageyama was a little unconvinced, "Then can't I go to Aoba Castle West?"

- At any rate, his teammates from Kitaichi will also go to Aoba Castle West in the future.

Hinata paused, turned his face and looked serious, and what he said was a hard blow to Kageyama's heart:

"But if you go to Aoba Castle West, you won't be able to compete with Oikawa-senpai. You don't really want to fight with him. Really?"

Kingshan lowered his head as he was completely defeated.

"I still have to apply for a recommendation to Shiratorizawa first. I won't consider Karasuno until I'm really rejected..."

After all, it was the dream school that he had thought about for many years. Kageyama knew that Hinata was right, but he still wanted to give it a try.

Next to him, Kageyama Kazuo smiled as he watched his grandson decide to change his high school aspirations.

——My decision to entrust Xiao Feixiong to Tianhai was absolutely the right decision.

-----------------------

Tianhai, who is far away in Tokyo, naturally doesn't know what happened in Miyagi.

He stared closely at the 18m×9m field and the ever-changing scoreboard with numbers on the field.

In the second game, Jingdishan's players had offense written all over their faces, which caused a lot of trouble for Qingcheng's blocking.

In the later stages, Tianhai decisively replaced Kusukawa, who could not keep up with the rhythm, and Maebashi took up the blocking banner again.

At this time, even if Jing Dashan's No. 3 deputy offensive team organized a block, the three people in the front row did not have the physical strength to support the three people to reach their proper positions in time.

I could only watch the ball fall to the ground several times.

The atmosphere in the arena is getting tighter and tighter, like a bow. And when the bow was stretched to the extreme, the bow and arrow shot out in response.

"Dudu——"

Oikawa's face was covered with sweat, dripping on the court.

34:32

"Qingye Chengxi defeated Jingdashan and won! It may become the biggest dark horse in this spring high school!"

The audience was excited. There was no longer the order a quarter of an hour ago. They all stood up to vent their excitement.

Qingcheng's substitute players came on the field and huddled together.

Coach Mizoguchi also rushed down to the second floor and put his arms around Coach Irihata and Tenkai. The passionate young man shed tears on the spot.

He really didn't expect that Qingye City West could defeat the prestigious Jingda Mountain. I thought I was going back home, but I didn’t expect to successfully become the top four!

Player Aoki was busy thanking the support team and fans, while coach Irihata was dealing with the swarm of reporters.

"Player Oikawa! Could you please explain how you judged at the end of the first game..."

"Aojo players, what do you want to say about tomorrow's opponent, Ougatani Academy?"

"Everyone in Aojo , say hello to the fans in front of the TV!"

Tianhai finally pushed the microphone away from his mouth and left the venue. They looked at each other with a curly-haired young man in black clothes and a mask.

Next to him was a man of the same age with beanie eyebrows, who looked very sunny. The two stood in the corner, fearing that they would be blocked by the crowd of reporters.

This is...

Tianhai, who has specially studied the national high school comprehensive system, looked at the curly-haired young man. The two very distinctive moles above his eyebrows made him recognize that this was Sakuha Seiomi, who was about to enter high school.

Then the person next to him is naturally Sakuhaya's cousin Motoya Komori.

Nodding to the other party to show friendship, Tianhai took Qingcheng and got on the leaving bus.

·

As soon as I arrived at the hotel, Hinata called.

"Master! Congratulations to Qingcheng for winning and becoming the top four! Oikawa-senpai is so awesome! Even Kageyama said Oikawa-senpai...ah! Why are you dragging me!"

I heard Kageyama Tobio say from the other side of the phone. Roaring "Hinata, you idiot!", Amami laughed out loud.

After the commotion on the other side was over, Hinata took over the phone again.

"Master! Are you going to compete with Xiaodani Academy tomorrow! Uh-huh!

Then don't you have to play against Bokuto-senpai on the court!"

- Bokuto came to the palace before the spring high game. Cheng, and established a posthumous friendship with Hinata.

Tianhai also frowned when he talked about this.

"I have discussed it with Coach Irihata. I will not play in tomorrow's game, and Coach Mizoguchi will play in my place."

After all, the opponent is Bokuto, who once worshiped him as his teacher under the eyes of many players in the intensive training camp. Then his not showing up can be regarded as a way to avoid suspicion.

Hinata's voice was comforting: "Master, the seniors will definitely do their best! Let's watch together in the audience!"

Hearing the student's heart-warming comfort, Tianhai covered his chest with a moved expression.

Whether we can enter the decisive battle depends on tomorrow's game.
