Chapter 220 Black Uniform
"Wow! This place is really professional!"
In the stands, looking at the bright, brand-new stadium below, Kintaro Toyama couldn't help but his mouth widened in surprise and his eyes shone.
“It’s such a great feeling to be able to see the stadium at a glance!”
Kentaro Minami and others couldn't help but nodded, their eyes full of excitement. No player who loves tennis could remain calm after seeing the U17 training environment for the first time.
Well, except for the bosses of some financial groups.
"Not only that, I just saw the gym over there. Wow, the equipment inside is amazing. They are all the latest models!"
"Don't talk about the gym, haven't you looked at the people training below! Behind everyone there are dedicated trainers and record-keeping personnel. If we had them when we were training here, hey, just thinking about it makes me feel full of energy.
ah!"
"That's it! If it doesn't work out, I want to work here in the future."
Just as everyone in Shanbuki was discussing with great interest, an extremely loud voice sounded.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's the matter with you city dwellers who are so petty when they come to the city?"
Everyone in Yamabuki turned around and saw behind them, a group of people led by Hyōtei, led by Atobe, looking at them proudly.
"It's the Ice Emperor."
"I don't want the people who come to train with me to be too embarrassed. After all, no matter how good the venue is, it is just a support, and strength is the king."
Atobe Keigo looked at Yamabuki and his group elegantly and openly, and suddenly frowned.
"Where has Soji Hata gone?"
"You're talking about the general manager."
Toyama Kintaro replied casually: "He went to deal with some personal matters."
Private matter?
Atobe Keigo raised his eyebrows. He couldn't imagine that Mr. Hatada could have any personal matters here.
The Hyokui people behind him also looked at each other, speculating about Souji Hatada's absence.
"Hmph! You actually have to deal with personal matters before the selection has even started. How lax!"
A rather majestic and old-fashioned voice sounded.
This voice is also familiar to Toyama Kintaro.
"Oh! It's the guy in the hat! Long time no see!"
Seeing Kintaro Toyama jumping up and down and waving hello to him enthusiastically, Genichiro Sanada uncomfortably lowered the brim of his hat and said rather burdenedly: "I don't know."
On the other hand, Yukimura Seiichi's eyes flickered, he looked at Genichiro Sanada jokingly, and said softly: "That kid is very enthusiastic, isn't he Sanada?"
"Sorry, we're late!"
At this time, Seigaku walked into the venue under the leadership of Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Then Shitenhoji Temple, Fudomine, Rokkaku Junior High School, and Higa Junior High School also showed their presence.
"Wow! Everyone is here!"
Kintaro Toyama looked at the familiar faces and couldn't help but smile.
After everyone discussed the environment here for a while, they agreed to ask the same question tacitly.
"Where has Soji Hata gone? Why didn't you see him?"
Then, without any explanation from Yamabuki's people, someone spoke up and said that Mr. Matada had gone to deal with private matters.
For a while, the discussion about Souji Hata occupied a corner of the huge stadium.
Hatada Souji didn't know that he was being discussed by others. He was currently wearing the 'gift' given to him by Mifune Iridō and searching for his target in the stadium.
However, Hata Souji, who didn't know much about this place, just followed the route that Takushi Ryuji took him and walked towards the stadium based on his memory.
Along the way, many trainees who were training gave Souji Hata complicated looks.
Surprised, surprised, thinking, indifferent, wary, in short, he was very concerned about the existence of Hatada Souji in strange clothes.
It's the kind of concern that carries hostility.
Hata Souji, who felt a little uncomfortable being looked at, subconsciously touched his nose.
To be honest, even he couldn't face so many people's slightly hostile looks with such a straight face.
Although he did still have a smile on his face.
Soon, based on his memory, Souji Hata came to the familiar stadium, but unfortunately he did not see the person sleeping in the audience.
"Hey, it turned out to be in vain. Maybe I should try to see if there is a broadcast here to find someone."
Hata Souji was a little disappointed. He didn't expect that the place where Taneshima Shuji slept would be so casual. Or was he training now?
Just when Mr. Hatada was about to go back and join the main force, a cold voice sounded.
"Hey! Who are you!"
Um?
Souji Hatada turned around and saw a man whose hair seemed to have been blown by the wind and fell down, and whose eyes were as sharp as a knife's edge, staring straight at him.
"Me? I'm here to find someone."
Although this guy's harsh and impolite tone made Soji Matada a little uncomfortable, he still answered patiently.
As a result, his politeness did not seem to be taken seriously by the other party, who continued to look at Souji Hatada with cold and unceremonious eyes.
"Where did the clothes you are wearing come from?"
"This clothes?"
The clothes worn by Souji Hatada are exactly the same as those on the opposite side, except that the clothes on the opposite side are white with red and black as the base, while the clothes on Souji Hata are black with black as the base and white with red as the base.
Souji Hata raised his eyebrows, and then smiled slightly at the man in front of him.
"None of your business."
The unexpected and unceremonious answer made the visitor's eyes become sharper.
"Looking at your size, you should be a junior high school student specially approved to train with me this year."
Look at my height?!
Souji Hata felt that he was offended, and his face that was as gentle as the spring breeze gradually turned cold, but the person on the other end didn't seem to care, and instead said something that made Souji even more irritated.
"So judging from the time, you have no way to obtain this clothes, so..."
The man's eyes were cold, and he looked at Souji Hata with disdain and contempt.
"Please take off your clothes and go where you should go. This dress is not something you can wear."
"Isn't this clothes something I can wear?"
Mr. Hata laughed angrily and looked at the man in front of him absurdly.
"Where did you get the courage to doubt me so casually?"
"Are you a stupid duck?"
That person seemed to have anticipated that Mr. Hatada would be tough-talking.
"It seems that you won't shed tears without seeing the coffin! In this case, I will give you a chance and allow you to prove yourself to me!"
"Whoosh!"
The man swung his racket violently and pointed directly at Hata Souji.
"If you lose, stop wearing these clothes and swaggering around like a clown."
Hata Souji, who was filled with anger, looked at the unreasonable look of the man in front of him and planned to teach him a lesson.
His eyes opened quietly, and a chilling light shone across them.
"Then, what will happen if you lose?"
The man met Souji Hatada's gaze and felt his heart palpitate for no reason, and then frowned slightly. Although he was disdainful of Souji Hatada's arrogance, thinking about the palpitating feeling he had just felt, a little unknown fire started to rise in his heart.
"If you win, you will have the final say on Court No. 2 from now on."
"Court Two?"
Seeing the incomprehensible look on Soji Hata's face, the man became even more certain that Souji Hata just 'picked up' the clothes from nowhere.
He is just a vain brat, and the people in the logistics department are becoming more and more lax.
He didn't have the patience to explain that he didn't think Souji Hatada could win at all.
"You dare."
What Soji Hata showed today was eye-opening. This man is really more arrogant than Atobe, but he doesn't have any connotation.
"Forget it, although the number is unlucky, let's just treat it as a lesson to you."
"It can be regarded as a warm-up before I meet that guy Shuji Tanejima."
Shuji Tanejima!?
Unexpectedly, he heard this name from Souji Hata. The man frowned again, but looking at Souji Hata's back, he thought that Souji Hata just casually said a name that he didn't know where he saw it.
That's all.
To actually think of finding Shuji Tanejima, he is really ignorant, ignorant and fearless.
The man followed Souji Hata to the stadium with a cold face.
"You serve first!"
