Chapter 76
After scoring a point in Chapter 76
, the right to serve was rotated to Inarizaki.
At this moment, Gong Yoo happened to be serving.
"Serve the ball well! Ah Yu!"
Wei Bai hugged the back of his head and encouraged the opponent
- in the spring high school competition last year, after seeing the Qingcheng setter's three-stroke serve, Gong Yu also made a fuss about practicing floating jumps. .
"I hope he doesn't float on my head..." Wei Bai secretly complained.
Inarizaki's players spontaneously clapped their hands to cheer, and the rhythmic percussion was as shocking as Aoki's vocal accompaniment.
"It seems that Miyayu is so popular."
Feeling the support from Inarizaki, in Hanamaki's heart, Miyayu's status in the Inarizaki volleyball club is equivalent to the status of Hanakou and Kawa Toru in the Qingcheng support group.
Unlike Hanamaki, who had been praying that one day he would have this kind of noodles, Gong Yoo's face was filled with impatience.
He said "tsk" and tried his best to ignore the off-field interference.
The young man with blond hair and brown eyes looked focused, holding the ball in his hand and thinking about the direction of attack.
Jumping the ball? No, I'm not very proficient yet, so let's jump hair.
To whom?
The next second, Matsukawa's body froze
- he and one of the "strongest twins" looked at each other. His goal is obviously himself!
"He wants to hit Matsukawa!" Oikawa also shouted out what he noticed.
...
"Bah!" Sure enough, it was a jump serve!
Tianhai stared closely at the trajectory of the ball. Compared with the last time they met, Gong Yoo's jump serve has improved a lot.
"He has been honing his skills in the past year without competition."
When Shiyi saw this scene, he couldn't help but switch up the camera mode to take pictures.
The opponent not only practiced serving, but also put a lot of thought into smashing and back-passing.
"This is a back pass," after hearing Tianhai's explanation, Shiyi changed the camera mode to telephoto mode
- under the recording of the high-definition lens, Tianhai could even see the sweat droplets on Gong Yoo's neck.
Similarly, every detail of his movements is also shown in detail.
"In his usual passing posture, you can notice that he stands with his feet parallel, his knees slightly bent, and his upper body leaning slightly forward.
In order to support the ball more accurately when passing from behind, his hands are placed behind his body. His arms are slightly straightened, and his palms face outward. ."
Gong Yoo's actions were broken down into nodes one by one under the camera. Every time he noticed a small detail, the corners of his mouth curved up.
"Tianhai, did he do a great job? Why are you so happy?"
Tianhai was not in a hurry to explain to Shiyi. He walked towards him under the vigilant eyes of Coach Kurosu and Coach Omi.
"Coach Kurosu, I would like to ask if Miyagi, the kid, has told you about his future career plans?"
When Coach Kurosu heard this, Tianhai didn't come here to get to know the Inarizaki players, but was just interested in Miyagi.
He put down his guard and explained,
"He hasn't mentioned this before. But since he and Miyaji love volleyball so much, they should both choose to become professional volleyball players."
Tianhai didn't ask any more questions. After expressing his gratitude, he returned to stand next to Coach Irihata. With.
As soon as he stood still, Coach Irihata's curious question came back, "Tenkai, did you just go and say something to Coach Kurosu?"
In his mind, Seichi kept asking Tenkai why he was so happy, so Tenkai simply said it out loud. come out.
"Gong Yoo's movements should have been practiced by a professional setter. Although his movements are not the same as Xiang Bei's, every movement is standard to the extreme.
But they are perfectly between "protecting the player's body" and "making full use of body movements" ."
Hearing this, the three coaches from Qingcheng all looked at Gong Yoo's movements.
"You said it, it's true. The waist that needs the most attention in back passes is also well protected."
After coach Irihata left the game, he often suffered from waist injuries during his service.
After seeing Tenkai's special attention, he admired the Inarizaki setter even more
even though he didn't like wearing knee pads.
Tianhai didn't finish his words, but still had half of them left - Gong You had never acted like this before.
It seemed that this year he figured out something and then found a professional coach to correct his actions.
Tianhai couldn't think of a better reason for this behavior than "playing a career".
As for Miyaji that Coach Kurosu mentioned?
He did see a love for volleyball in this child's eyes, but perhaps it was a little less than Gong Yoo's.
Tianhai subconsciously looked at Coach Kurosu.
Feeling the gaze, Kuroshitsubo also turned around to see the two foxes, one large and one small, smiling at each other to show friendship, but in fact they were both evil-minded.
Coach Kurosu: Tianhai is still so bad that he didn’t even ask me for training-related information. Inarizaki is one step ahead of Qingcheng~
Tianhai: I have to find an opportunity to steal it for their foxes.
--------------------------
No matter how the coaches compete invisibly off the field, on this 9m×18m playing field, Inari The two team members, Qi Qi and Qing Cheng, were jealous.
"Ah! I'm ahead!" Akagi looked at the scoreboard and shouted.
Weibai Alan's complaints soon followed, "It's not like we were falling behind at the beginning!"
He was already half a game behind!
Kitano Shinsuke quickly left the court after receiving the serve, and Ginjima Yui was still on the court.
Under the glares of five people on the opposite side and the shining eyes of one person, Iwaizumi rushed to the floor and caught a ball that was impossible to catch.
"I caught it! Oikawa!"
The ball was accurately passed to Oikawa.
Even if his original goal of scoring failed, he didn't even mess up a pass.
Gong Yoo, who was trying his best to fetch water from a bamboo basket, collapsed and shouted while adjusting his position.
"What a fart this guy is!" Everything was in chaos now!
The ball held up by Oikawa was passed to Matsukawa. After scoring one point, the training match also came to an end.
"Dudu——"
Coach Inarizaki Omi blew the whistle to signal the players to take a break.
"Let's have one more game, Coach Tianhai! Play three games in total!"
Gong You broke through Alan's blockage and came to Tianhai to request.
After all, it is a practice match between two schools, and whether it can continue is just a word from the two coaches.
Tianhai wanted to agree, but the Qingcheng team members had been on an empty stomach since the morning. Even though I ate some energy bars in the car, the feeling of hunger could not be replaced.
"You can finish your meal at noon and rest for a while. How about continuing in the afternoon?"
Looking at Gong Yoo, who had never been beaten so badly since junior high school, his eyes turned red. Tianhai stopped walking to the restaurant and turned around to comfort him first.
"You performed very well today. You must have practiced your movements with a coach."
Tianhai found the most impressive point to praise.
The audience in the gymnasium had already left first, and the players from Inarizaki and Qingcheng had also gone to eat.
With no one around, Gong Yoo felt much more relaxed.
"Ah, Coach Tianhai, you discovered it."
Just as he was immersed in the sadness of being beaten, Gong Yoo scratched his face and felt a little embarrassed when Tianhai complimented him without hesitation.
"I learned this from the coach of the club."
Tianhai expressed his understanding after hearing this
- Gongyu, Gongji and Obai have been studying in the same youth volleyball classroom since elementary school.
According to Miyaji, the coach who taught them, Masahiko Inuhata, is a former setter for the Japanese national team. Then these movements should be learned from him specifically.
"That's great! Do you want to become a professional volleyball player in the future?" Tianhai already had an idea in mind, but still asked.
The eyes of the young man in front of him were shining, and he was watching the volleyball with enthusiasm.
"Yeah! I want to keep playing volleyball! Together with Aji, I want to go from [the strongest twins in high school] to [the strongest in Japan], and then [the strongest in the world]!"
That's true.
"That's great! As long as you continue to persevere. Pay attention to protecting your body. There will definitely be no problem with your career.
Let's go and eat first. There will be a training match in the afternoon."
Tianhai and Gong You stood side by side and talked. Gong Yoo walked towards the cafeteria where his performance was lacking in the morning practice match.
-----------------------
On the path next to the Inarizaki student restaurant.
Iwaizumi walked forward with the Qingcheng team members.
After strenuous exercise, the energy has long been completely consumed by the muscles. My stomach is screaming for hunger, and I can't wait to rush into the cafeteria for a big meal.
"Iwaizumi-senpai!"
It was Miyaji's voice.
Although Gong Gemini are twins, people who know them can tell them apart at a glance - different hair colors, different personalities, and different voices.
The only thing they had in common seemed to be their love for volleyball, but even in this, Gong Zhi found that he and Gong Yoo were different.
Miyaji jogged two steps and caught up with Iwaizumi in front of him,
"Iwaizumi-senpai, can I ask you a question?"
It is indeed not that hot under the shade of the trees, but it is a long way from the gym to the restaurant. Miyaji ran over. The sweat on his face dripped onto his collar but he didn't care.
He looked at Iwaizumi intently, the solemnity in his eyes almost overflowing.
Oikawa, who was in front of Iwaizumi, heard the noise coming from behind and turned around, "Oh, oh, oh, why is it you, little brat. Where is your brother?"
Miyaji frowned, "I am the brother."
"Ouch~ Then Why did my brother come to see my Xiaoyan instead of telling him about his troubles?"
The smile on Oikawa's lips did not reach his eyes.
I don’t know why this kid came to Xiao Yan for no reason. If he wanted to say something bad to Xiao Yan...
the smile at the corner of his mouth slowly disappeared.
"Go and eat quickly!" Iwaizumi reached out and patted Oikawa on the back.
——It’s just adding to the chaos here.
"Oh! It hurts! You're a violent maniac, thank you I still care about you!" Oikawa rubbed his back, glanced at Iwaizumi resentfully, turned around and continued walking to the restaurant.
Seeing that there was no one around, Gongzhi expressed the confusion buried deep in his heart.
"Iwaizumi-senpai, after today's game, we lost miserably."
Inarizaki trailed Aoki by 7 points and lost the game. This is a result that Miyaji has not achieved in a long time.
Even IH, who participated for the first time this year, did not lose so badly.
"But I'm not very unwilling."
Iwaizumi:? ? ?
Iwaizumi didn't quite understand, "Isn't it a good thing to be unwilling? It proves that you have a good attitude."
Miyaji shook his head, the feeling of unwillingness was not too strong, which made me very unwilling. "
This means
that his love for volleyball seems to lag behind Gong Yoo's.
