Chapter 170 The Prince of Tennis Gathers
The aroma of food wafted through the restaurant. Shuji Tanejima carried a pile of food plates and sat down naturally beside her.
Maori Juzaburo was a step behind and had to sit on the other side of her. He glanced at Tanejima Shuji and put the pancake in front of her: "This is for you, junior. I saw this just now."
"There's also this~" What Shuji Tanejima pushed over was exactly what she liked to eat.
Zhao Lan paused. Last night, this guy was lying half dead in the clinic, but today he was jumping up and down and began to show his courtesy.
Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt something touching her knee under the table - Tanejima Shuji's long legs hooked onto Zhao Lan's sneakers under the table, and the tip of the shoe rubbed her ankle in an ambiguous way.
"Senior, are your legs placed in the wrong place?" Zhao Lan stepped on the tip of his shoe with a fake smile.
"Oh, this might be the aftereffect of overdrawing my mental energy yesterday..." Tanejima Shuji put his elbows on the back of her chair, and behind her back, where no one could see, he gently hooked his fingers around the ends of her hair and played with it.
Noticing his little movement, Zhao Lan glared at him. The other party chuckled and sat up straighter.
Maori Jusaburo glanced at them suspiciously.
Is this an illusion? Why does it feel like after just one night, Arashi's attitude towards Tanejima-senpai has changed a little...
The reflection of Irie Kanata's lens on the opposite side, after yesterday, has something happened between Arashi-chan and Tanejima...that no one knows about?
Zhao Lan pretended not to notice the suspicious looks from Senior Maori and Senior Irie. She finished her meal leisurely and stood up to get another bowl of soup.
Thinking of the messages she received from everyone last night, she glanced at Maori and Tanejima beside her. The following training routine would probably be very lively.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Mr. Kurobe and the others informed her that the junior high school students would be arriving the next day and the content of the subsequent training.
Zhao Lan took it and took a look, his eyes swept over the smiling Coach Saito.
Unexpectedly, the guy who usually looks a bit silly and often hits his head because he forgets his height is actually a white-cut black!
“Hahaha…” Seeing her expression, Coach Saito was amused by her: “Isn’t this interesting?”
"I'm afraid you're the only one who finds this interesting..."
It was dinner time, and as soon as I entered the restaurant, I heard everyone discussing this matter.
"Hey, have you heard? About those middle school students!"
"Yeah, what on earth are you kidding me? You little middle school kid, you probably won't last three days in this training camp!"
A senior student wearing a baseball cap smiled maliciously: "It's a rare opportunity to come here, so just take good care of them..." After saying that, several people over there laughed exaggeratedly.
Zhao Lan glanced at them. Judging from the level of those seniors over there, who knows who will be taken care of tomorrow...
Tanejima Shuji turned his gaze towards her. According to her memory, the few people she was close to in junior high school were all top-ranked people...
Especially her school, Rikkai University Affiliated High School, which is the champion of this year's national competition, will definitely be on the list, right?
Things are becoming more and more interesting~
The next day, everyone was still training when they heard Kurobe-sensei's voice over the loudspeaker.
Everyone looked over when they heard the sound, and Zhao Lan first saw everyone standing over there.
Oh~ Almost all the people I've met from Rikkai University, Seigaku, Hyotei, Shitenhoji, Higa, Yamabuki, and Fudomine are here?
"Everyone, this time we have added 246 specially selected junior high school students to the 50 high school students. From now on, whether you are a junior high school student or a high school student, please practice together and improve the strength of the U-17 team!"
"But," he added, "the head coach told me to tell you that 300 people are too many. If you don't get 250 balls in the air, you will leave this training camp immediately. That's it!"
Before Zhao Lan finished speaking, he heard the roar of a plane propeller. Then, a plane flew over and circled in the sky, dropping a large number of tennis balls from the air.
Zhao Lan picked one up casually, and heard Tezuka's familiar voice: "Focus on the ground!"
Hahaha, worthy of being Tezuka. Zhao Lan hid in the crowd, watching the people she was familiar with over there, showing off their skills and getting a lot of tennis balls...
A smile appeared on her face. She had only been here for a few days, but it felt like she hadn't seen them for a long time.
Tao Cheng turned around and saw people from other schools, and said in surprise: "So you all are here?"
Atobe flicked his hair and said: "Even you little minions have been recruited, how can I, the king, not be invited? Ah~ ah"
"However, they didn't even notice we were here. They were too careless!" Sanada looked at the Seigaku group who hadn't noticed them from beginning to end.
Genichirō, you're still the same.
"Arashi?" Kirihara's exclamation attracted everyone's attention. Following his gaze, everyone saw Zhao Lan standing behind them, smiling at them.
"Arashi-chan??"
"Lan-san! Why are you here??"
"Haha, your expressions are so funny. I haven't seen you all for a few days. Are you surprised?"
"I asked you several times where you were going to train, but you always avoided the question. So it turns out you were waiting here?" Tezuka walked over and tapped her forehead lightly.
Marui and Niou stared at her: "It was a shock, okay!"
"That's right, this is the boys' training ground, why is Lan here?" Everyone from Qingxue asked in surprise.
Yukimura smiled tenderly: "Before you said you were going to train with the coach, so you came here?"
Fuji smiled at her and said, "Lan is definitely not here for training. Could it be that you are the coach this time?"
"Zhou Zhu is still so smart. However, I am not a coach. I am just an assistant. I will help you train. The general direction is still determined by the coaches and teachers."
She turned to look at Tezuka who was looking at her in silence, "Kunimitsu!"
"Ah! What a surprise! I thought I would have to wait until the end of this training camp to see you~" Not expecting such a surprise, Kunimitsu Tezuka pushed up his glasses.
Shiraishi and everyone at Shitenhoji: "I didn't expect to see Arashi-san here, what a surprise!"
"Then Lan-san, please be gentle to us~~" This is Xiaochun...
Zhao Lan twitched his lips, "I knew you guys would come a long time ago~"
Before she finished her words, a man came up from behind and stood beside her calmly.
Shiraishi and the others were about to ask who the other party was, but Maori Jusaburo spoke first, "It's been a long time since we last met, fellow juniors. We will be together again for a long time in the future."
"Mori-senpai! You're here too?"
"I was surprised too~"
After exchanging a glance with Yanagi Renji, Yukimura smiled meaningfully: "What an unexpected meeting, Mori-senpai."
The two men's eyes moved around her and then returned to Maori-senpai.
Back then at Rikkai University, they had often tripped each other up, and I thought they had finally sent him away, but I didn't expect him to appear here again.
the other side,
Looking at Zhao Lan who was the center of attention and laughing with everyone over there, "So, they are..." Behind the reflective lenses, Irie Kanata's eyes flashed.
Shuji Tanejima squinted at the junior high school students over there, and when he saw a few familiar faces in the crowd, the corners of his mouth curved up into an almost invisible arc.
Very good, not one is left out, all are here~.
In the time it took for a few words to pass, all the tennis balls on the court were snatched away.
Because several of them took a lot, there were a lot of people who didn't get any.
Seeing a tennis ball rolling on the ground over there, Qian's glasses flashed white. He stretched out his finger and tapped the shoulder of the expert next to him, signaling him to look over there.
Soon, the high school students who failed to grab the ball were in a mess for the ball.
Mu Shou threw a stone at the tennis ball, and the tennis ball flew out and was caught by Ryoma Echizen who arrived a step late.
I have to say, this Ryoma who made the final appearance, despite his small stature, had a big aura ~ so handsome!!
While they were reminiscing about the past, Zhao Lan glanced at Qian, who was causing the chaos and acting as if it had nothing to do with him.
She gave him a thumbs up and said, "Good boy, you are so good! You are really a black man too!"
Qian pushed his glasses nonchalantly and accepted her compliment.
From then on, all the junior high school students who arrived had the ball in their hands. The high school students who didn't have the ball were ordered to leave.
