Chapter 11 The Japanese Boys' Competition
At ten o'clock in the evening, Shiraishi finally returned to the hotel. Along the way, Boton's nagging almost made his ears calloused, from Baishi's going out to meeting Li Xiao, Baishi told Boton all the things along the way.
But to Shiraishi's surprise, after hearing Li Xiao's name, Boteng looked at him with a strange look until he saw that he was covered in goosebumps. Immediately, Boteng told Shiraishi what he had learned about Li Xiao.
"He's a ghost!"
This sentence shocked Shiraishi, "ghost talent"! As far as he knows, there is a "born Guo Fengxiao" in Chinese history. Of course, the title is not necessarily a sign of strength, but what kind of person is Proton, the Japanese ambassador to the United States. He had eaten more salt than the bridge that Shiraishi had crossed, and with his knowledge, he had never seen anything in the world.
For Li Xiao, he is admired, which shows his status in his heart.
This kind of admiration is from the heart, praise. But if it is replaced by Sanada and Yukimura, who also have titles and are quite domineering, he is afraid that he will just appreciate it. Although their strength is also good, compared to Li Xiao, they are still only showing their potential.
Listening to Boteng, Li Xiao is currently the No. 1 Chinese men's tennis player. And on the world professional tennis stage, he is also one of the top ones. Although he is past the prime age of tennis, his strength is getting stronger and stronger, and it has become a mystery.
"Whew! It's really a wonderful day, I saved someone casually, and I was actually a Chinese tennis master! Lying on the big bed in the hotel, Shiraishi slowly recalled his encounter today.
"Tsk! Moreover, Chinese sports in this world are not as weak as in previous lives. It seems that not only tennis, but also football. ”
It's a wonderful world, and there are no tense world situations in this world. Some are just those challenges full of blood, and on the way to pursue their dreams, everything is possible. Of course, as long as you are willing to give.
Shaking his head, what Li Xiao said to himself came to Baishi's mind again. And his terrifying speed, the speed that terrified Shiraishi. But he was not discouraged, and besides, he vaguely grasped something, and there was a faint sense of familiarity.
That night, he thought a lot, but also slept soundly
The next afternoon, at Meddalee Stadium in New York, a large number of reporters gathered here. There were also some spectators seated in the seats, and everyone had a look of anticipation on their faces, because today was the second match of the Japanese teenager.
After the hype of the previous press media, the "second samurai" from Japan has become a big topic at this US Open.
Although there have been Japanese players at the U.S. Open after Minamijiro, their level is not worse than that of Minamijiro. Shiraishi is different, although he participated in the junior competition, but in the first game, he defeated the fierce Tony of the junior division. And the score is not 7:5, 7:6 or anything like that, it's a terrifying 6:0.
What's even more terrifying is that this boy from Japan is only 16 years old this year, and I heard that he has just turned 16.
Most of the media said that this teenager from Japan will become the biggest dark horse of this year's US Open. But there are also those who oppose it, because Shiraishi is still very young, he is only sixteen years old. At the age of sixteen, the world legend Pete was sixteen years old, and he was still practicing swinging rackets in the club. And the opponents that Shiraishi has to face are not very good.
American genius Iris and Kevin, the tennis golden boy from Switzerland, is said to have stepped into the world at the age of seventeen, and he already has the style of a general at a young age, which is amazing.
As for the other Chinese Chen, needless to say, that person won the championship in the last competition, and now no one knows how strong he is. And according to professional tennis people, Chen once challenged famous tennis players in the United States, Green, Al. It turned out to be a loss, but the score was 7:6, a rather close number.
And who is Green, that is the person who is second only to those masters in the tennis world today, Chen Neng forced him to 7:6, which shows his strength.
In short, neither of these two factions could convince anyone for a while, so people turned their attention to today's game. Shiraishi's opponent in this fight is Gerry, Tony's nemesis who was defeated by Shiraishi, who defeated his opponent in the match played yesterday.
What was supposed to be a deathmatch between him and Tony turned into a match with Shiraishi. But everyone was not optimistic about him, and this game became a match to test whether Shiraishi was a dark horse or not, which made him quite unhappy.
Sitting in the lounge area, Gerry gently closed his eyes, which is his habit of making pre-match adjustments. But the faint sound of people talking in his ears, those who were talking about how many points he would get in Shiraishi's hands and then lose the game made his brows furrow.
"Hmph, how many points? I'm going to win! "He's very confident about this game. Although Shiraishi defeated Tony with a score of 6:0, he was still confident.
"Let you see what I have been practicing since the last failure!"
And just as Tony was secretly making up his mind in his heart, there was a burst of exclamations from the other side of the venue. Subconsciously turned his head away, and what he saw was Shiraishi's smiling face, slowly walking over from far and near.
"Humph!" Gerry snorted inwardly, and Shiraishi's smile seemed to be demonstrating to him. But he's never been scared by someone else's momentum, he's Gerry, Aimo, he's the one who wants to be the best player in the world.
Bai Shi, who had just entered the arena, was a little strange, he just wanted to say hello to him, but who knew that the other party had a straight face. However, he also immediately returned to normal, since the other party is a meticulous person, then he should also put away his heart and have a good fight with him on the field.
I don't know how Gerry would react if he knew that his tough attitude towards Shiraishi had become a reason for him to be serious about himself. But even if he knew, he shouldn't feel anything!
The attitude of the two people meeting was not very "friendly", which made the reporters outside the stadium very interested. They immediately wrote that the two players were at odds with each other, and that they should be going all out in today's match.
Even a program in the United States, dedicated to commenting on the US Open junior group commentator was also interested, he said: "The two players don't seem to have a good relationship, but Shiraishi's smile on Gerry was rejected by Gerry, it seems that both of them will do their best in the game, which is a feast for our fans!" ”
Even though the commentary was on the junior game, the commentator was excited because he was a big tennis fan. For him, commenting on any group of games is almost the same, it is a kind of happiness, the difference is just the difference in the publicity that his fame gets, but he doesn't care.
Finally, the match began, and the second round of this US Open began. Whoever wins gets a ticket to the quarter-finals.
"Now for the second round of the youth division, the match between Kuranosuke Shiraishi and Gerry and Aimo!" The referee said.
There was also a round of applause from the stands, and as loyal tennis fans, they were finally able to see the match after waiting for most of the day. As for who will win, they don't think about it that much, they just want to see a good matchup, that's all.
After hearing the referee's words, Shiraishi and Gerry also stepped forward together, and after saluting, they began to choose the right to serve. Shiraishi got off to a good start, and he drew the first move.
Naturally, he chose to serve.
Looking at Gerry on the other side, Shiraishi hesitated a little in his heart. But he was firm in his heart and made a choice without hesitation. He tossed the tennis ball high, and when the speed of the ball was reduced to zero, he jumped violently. The left hand holding the racket makes an arc forward, and the racket hits the ball hard.
"Bang!"
A very strong hitting sound sounded, and the audience on the stage was shocked when they heard it. But then, it was a feeling of blood boiling, because of Shiraishi's serve, they saw the strong strength.
However, Gerry on the other side laughed, smiling contemptuously.
"Huh!"
Hearing only a soft sound, Gerry quickly raised his right hand and twitched at the flying tennis ball.
"Bang!"
The ball was bounced back, and the speed and force were staggering.
In the face of Gerry's quick response, Shiraishi was unfazed. He took a half-step with his left foot and wheeled up with his left hand. After spotting a blind spot in Gerry, he hit the ball vigorously. It's a short ball, and it's so fast that the average person can't react at all.
"Step, step, step !!"
But Gerry was different, he actually started running after hitting the ball. And by this time, he was already in front of the ball. But he was not willing to return the ball ordinarily, he actually accelerated at this moment!
"Whoosh!"
A dive, then a bend of his legs, he slid all under the ball. At the moment when the ball slid past, it bounced off the ground, and under the action of strong inertia, he held the racket with both hands, and the racket swung forward fiercely.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the tennis ball shot out like a cannonball.
"Bang!"
The deafening sound sounded, and Shiraishi on the side couldn't even react, and the ball was taken by Gerry.
“0:15”
"Gerry came up with a big counterattack, and when no one else was looking down on him, he used this ball to reward those people. It's an unimaginable goal, it seems that last season, he didn't hit this trick! Is this a new trick? The narrator said loudly.
"Huh! That's mine, 'super dive mortar'! ”
"Kuranosuke Shiraishi, are you ready?" Gerry said secretly in his heart.
Shiraishi was motionless, not sad or happy, as if this ball had never appeared. This makes people sigh that Shiraishi has a strong will, the opponent has such a powerful trick, and he is not flustered at all, it is really a strong psychological element!
However, the next match was a big surprise. Because this is basically one-sided, in the face of Gerry's powerful tricks, Shiraishi has no power to fight back. And this is not a dream or a national contest like Nioh and Fuji, but a real and real competition.
"Bang!"
"Gerry, Aimo, 4:0"
"Wow! In Gerry's new trick again, Shiraishi looked very weak in front of this move, could it be that his previous match with Tony was just a moment of luck? The commentator was puzzled by Shiraishi's expression, this shouldn't be the strength to defeat Tony 6:0.
Like him, many people are puzzled by the television set in the Far East.
In the Four Heavenly Treasure Temple, Qian also looked at Baishi, who did not fight back in the field, and muttered: "This shouldn't be, Baishi's strength is more than that!" ”
None of the others spoke, but obviously, they also felt that Shiraishi's strength should not be just like this.
Lihai, Sanada looked at Shiraishi, who looked very weak in the picture, and said, "Shiraishi Kuranosuke, what are you doing?" ”
Yukimura, who was wearing a hospital gown on the side, smiled and said, "Yes, Shiraishi-san, what are you thinking?" ”
At the same time, the United States, Japan's U-17, and Ryoma's family, the three uncle-like people all lit up in their eyes, and said in unison: "This kid"
