Chapter 2 Draw lots for the warm-up match
"Bang!"
"Game, Shiraishi, 6:0. At the end of the game, Kuranosuke Shiraishi won, with a score of 6:0.
When the referee announced that the game was over, Larry seemed to have lost all his strength and sat down on the ground weakly. Sweat ran down his red-blue hair, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't even have the strength to speak.
Suddenly, he remembered what Shiraishi had said before. 'Gerry didn't tell you, don't mess with the man with the bandage on his left hand?' ’
"Bandages? Left hand? Kuranosuke Shiraishi? Asian? Hiss~! An electric current flashed in his head, and his whole body was like a lightning strike, and he looked at Baishi who turned away with shock.
"Ha, I really don't know how thick the sky is!" Sighing weakly, the distant back overlapped with the figure in the newspaper a year ago in his mind, and he realized who he had provoked. Himself and others, one can only be majestic in the high school league, and the other has stepped into the world, this is the gap between heaven and earth!
At the same time, there were some whispers in the crowd. Appreciative, indifferent, disdainful, inconsistent attitudes.
"He's Kuranosuke Shiraishi? It doesn't look good either, does it deserve so much attention? A young white man pursed his lips in a disdainful tone.
"Is this the white stone? It's not easy! On the other side, a blonde young man held his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Ula Ula, this is the white stone from last year? That's amazing! The dark-skinned youth nodded to his companion
If someone pays attention, they will find that many of these young onlookers are traveling in groups, and there is not much difference in age. What makes them different from the average tourist is that their clothes are embroidered with a national flag-like pattern, and if you look closely, these countries cover five continents. And some tourists seem to think of something, pat their foreheads and smile.
The crowd was parting, but the beach was still buzzing, and it was just a normal race for the horrific traffic of Melbourne Beach
Besides, Shiraishi and Nanako, after leaving, they quickly found the team, and the group drove back to the hotel.
Along the way, the team members looked at the two laughing and slapping with strange faces, and the atmosphere was very weird. However, to the disappointment of Kenya and other jealous people whose eyes turned green, the three coaches were silent about Nanako's cunzài.
In fact, several people are not very comfortable with a girl appearing in the team. However, Shiraishi also said hello in advance, paid for various expenses along the way, and said that he would go all out to compete. And thinking of going all out, Saito's head wrinkled out a tic-tac-toe, and he looked at Shiraishi who was talking to Nanako with resentment, isn't this guy's subtext be, 'If you don't agree, I'll be passive and slack off!'" Nima, who's the coach?
As for Mifune, the old god sat comfortably in the co-pilot. He agreed after learning Nanako's identity, and it wasn't a big deal anyway. Only Shiraishi knew that the old guy didn't agree with a straight face at first, until Nanako brought the good wine that Nanjiro had treasured for many years, and the old man nodded without saying a word. Sure enough, the world is as black as a crow!
About half an hour, the car came to the hotel. After dinner, at Mifune's instructions, the representative of the high school students, Phoenix, and the representative of the junior high school students, Kuranosuke Shiraishi, dressed in neat dresses, came to the venue where the lottery was held
In the brightly lit arena, teams from all over the world are seated. Under the guidance of the guide lady, the two found their seats and sat down leisurely.
"Hey! Phoenix, these guys don't look simple! Shiraishi looked at the arrogant people and smiled.
The phoenix closed its eyes and clasped its hands in front of its chest. Hearing Shiraishi's words, Phoenix sighed lightly and shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, in world competitions, those who have the opportunity to participate are all strong countries. It is not surprising that these people are the elite of the elite of a country. ”
Shiraishi nodded, just like the original national tournament draw, everyone who came here was an invincible lord and had absolute confidence in tennis. However, the pattern here is infinitely larger.
He looked around and found quite a few acquaintances.
On the front and left, Tezuka and a bald man are constantly talking about something, and that person seems to be the hottest new star in today's tennis world, professional player Polk! Shiraishi nodded, it seems that Tezuka also has his own experience in Germany.
On the right, is the captain of Team USA, the Ralph who once had a relationship. Reinhart. The person next to him, Bai Shi, was unfamiliar, and he didn't know that it was that genius boy.
For the rest, Shiraishi also found several guys who were not weak in breath. Two of the Asians made his eyelids jump, but they were not South Korean players, he thought about it and showed a smile, "It seems that the national tennis in this world is really not bad"
"Dangdangdang!!
Suddenly, a few lights crossed the front stage, and finally focused on a pair of handsome men and women, who were the hosts of tonight's draw.
The beautiful host picked up the microphone and said in a sweet voice: "Welcome to the draw for tonight's U-17 World Cup warm-up match!" Let's start the draw! ”
Bai Shi shook his head, foreign countries are direct, if he attended the party in his previous life, the host must first have a large list of blessings, and then at least half an hour of the leader's speech before entering the topic.
"Next, the former World Cup champion Germany is invited to the stage to draw lots!"
Wow!
As soon as the host finished speaking, there was a noisy voice from the crowd. After all, it is the former world champion German team, and it is nine consecutive hegemons, how terrifying and terrifying! The riots soon calmed down, though, as Polk stood up.
"Step, step, step!"
Polk walked steadily, with confidence at every step, as if the king was heading towards the coronation stage.
"Please draw lots!" The hostess said softly.
Polk grabbed the switch and pulled it down slightly. After the click, under the eager attention of everyone in the audience, a small ball with the Arabic numeral 7 written on it rolled out.
“7?” When Shiraishi heard it, almost all the people around him couldn't help but murmur when they looked at the ball in Polk's hand. He sighed, this is the majesty of the world hegemon, so that everyone has to pay attention!
Next, representatives of more than a dozen countries came to the stage one by one, with apprehension, silently saying in their hearts that they must not draw the damn '7'. Praise God, they didn't even draw that damn number. It is only natural that only a few countries such as the United States will show their strength, and some people even speculate that these people want to test Germany's strength in the warm-up game first.
This is a strong strength, even if it is against Germany, it is not false confidence!
Looking at the list in her hand, the beautiful host continued, "Now please invite the Japanese team to the stage!" ”
Bai Shi patted the phoenix, but the other party crossed Erlang's legs, and grinned on his face full of scum, "Such a difficult task, of course, is reserved for our world champion!" ”
Shiraishi shrugged, not pretentious, and stood up and walked towards the stage. Looking at the crowd around him, he nodded to the beauty calmly and pulled down the switch in his hand.
Click!
The ball in the device kept spinning, and some countries that did not dare to underestimate Japan were also staring at the machine, expecting not to meet each other. After a while, a small ball rolled out. Looking at the small ball in front of him, the corners of Baishi's mouth hooked a trace of arc.
"He smiled, did he draw South Korea?" A white man exasperated.
"No, I guess it was drawn to India!" Another said.
Below the two of them, a square-faced, yellow-skinned young man looked at each other like his companions, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists tightly. It's too bullying, but they don't dare to refute it, they are weak, and it's no wonder that others are treated as weak chickens.
As for the other two swarthy youths in turbans, they shrugged their shoulders and smiled bitterly and did not speak.
"Huh?" Suddenly, the beautiful hostess beside Shiraishi screamed. Everyone looked over, but saw a number written on the small ball held by Shiraishi, which made people feel extremely kind.
"It's haha, great, the Japanese team is really our lucky star!" Someone cheered.
This is really the best news heard in tonight's lottery, countless people are happy in their hearts, and at the same time, many people look at Baishi on the stage gloatingly. "What a black hand! I guess the coach will scold him to death when he goes back, right? ”
The beautiful host raised the microphone and said loudly, "No. 7!" So, the opponent of the Japanese team is the German team! At the same time, she also set her eyes on the face of the handsome guy in front of her.
However, she was disappointed, and countless people in the audience who were expecting Shiraishi's love to get out of control were disappointed.
I saw him pick up the microphone, and under the sneering and sympathetic gaze of everyone, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he slowly said: "No, wrong, yes, sign!" ”
"Cut!"
"Arrogance!"
"This kid is so fat!"
In the audience, countless questioning voices came. It's good to draw the German team, this is not to take the former World Cup champion in their eyes, in their opinion, Shiraishi's behavior is too crazy. However, there are also people who know Shiraishi who did not express their opinions. Although it is true that Japan has a big gap with Germany, the people in front of him are qualified to say this, at least, they cannot question Shiraishi.
But one thing is for sure, this year's warm-up game was lively!
As for the voices of these people, Shiraishi ignored them all and walked straight towards the phoenix. And just as he was halfway there, a man stretched out his hand to him and said with a smile: "Hi! You are Baishi, I heard Brother Liang mention you. Oh yes, I didn't introduce myself, my name is Chen Lejia, the NO.3 of China's U-17! ”
"Hello!" Shiraishi struck up with him, and although he didn't understand the other party's purpose, he didn't understand the other party's face. After looking at the other party, he nodded and said, "I'm sorry Chen, I have time to chat, I'll go over first!" ”
"Hmm!" The other party didn't care and readily agreed.
Returning to his position, Shiraishi smiled, "How's it going, I'm lucky, right?" ”
Phoenix nodded noncommittally, seemingly unconcerned about the identity of his opponent. He looked not far away and asked, "Chinese?" ”
Shiraishi nodded.
Phoenix frowned for a long time before he spoke, "It is said that they have a great genius. It's not too simple! ”
"Oh?" It's the first time I've heard of it, and I'm intrigued.
"Look at this competition, China, the United States, and Switzerland, which has always been pressed by Germany, are getting more and more interesting."
After that, the draw was peaceful, and only a few countries that drew the United States and some powerful countries in Europe sighed. At the end of the party, Shiraishi and Phoenix returned to the hotel, and talked to her in Nanako's room for a long time before returning to the room and falling asleep.
Everyone knows that the warm-up game on the second day is a real battle!
It's a dead life, the author is cheating the corpse again, Uncle Police, come and see!
