Chapter 14: Regional Qualifiers (1)
Time flies by, and Ei Raccoon is getting more and more familiar with everyone in Qingxue, and in the blink of an eye, tomorrow is the regional qualifiers, but in Ei Li's opinion, everyone has no tension as usual.
The top two in the regional qualifiers need to qualify for the Tokyo Metropolitan Conference, but there doesn't seem to be a team in the district to which Seigaku belongs that can prevent Ayogaku from winning the championship, and the news makes Eki very happy.
However, Qingxue's battle list seems to have undergone some changes a few days ago.
Inside the coach's office
"It's a real headache that these two guys actually took the initiative to ask for doubles two days ago." Coach Ryuzaki sat on the desk and looked helplessly at the list in his hand with a headache.
"Which two?" Hearing this, Eri walked up to Coach Ryuzaki, picked up the battle list and looked at it, and when he saw the doubles list written on it, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
These two people are really, they obviously didn't cooperate well at all on the street tennis court last time, not to mention that they don't even know the basic doubles rules, why they still sign up for doubles, it's really unpredictable.
I thought so in my heart, but I didn't say so, "I think the two of them should have a way to deal with it, otherwise how could these two people ask for doubles, the coach should rest assured first, it's really not good, isn't there a pair of golden doubles between Senior Oishi and Senior Kikumaru?" ”
Hearing Ei say this, Coach Ryuzaki, who was originally irritable, had a much better expression, "Alas, then let's do it first"
……
The next day, the long-awaited regional preliminary round of the Tokyo Metropolitan Convention was held today, and although there were some ups and downs along the way, Eri was relieved to see that the nine youthful and energetic teenagers had finally arrived.
So Minister Tezuka led the members of the Aikaku Tennis Club to the sign-in area of the court, and when Ayogaku's very conspicuous team uniform appeared in everyone's eyes, people from other schools looked in their direction.
"It's Qingxueye"
"Kunimitsu Tezuka, and the genius Fuji Shusuke"
"I didn't expect that this year's selection of young students is still so strong"
"yes, look, how is the last one still in the first grade, and who is the girl next to him? When did a girl join the school? ”
“……”
At this time, everyone's attention was on Echizen Ryoma and Uesugi Ezumi walking beside him, and they were all curious about what was going on with this year's Seigaku.
"Little fox, are you still adapting?" Kikumaru heard the surrounding pointing at the manager of his club, and he put his eyes on Uesugi Ei who was walking behind, after all, this girl was probably the first contact on such an occasion, so it was inevitable that he was a little worried.
"It's okay Senior Kikumaru, although it's the first time I've appeared on this occasion as a team manager, but I just don't care about what others say." Ei Fox shook his head and smiled at the cat senior in front of him.
It seemed that Kikumaru understood a little bit of what Eikomi meant, so he looked ahead again.
However, Echizen, who was standing beside Eki after Kikumaru turned around, also leisurely spat out at her, "If you feel uncomfortable, remember to say"
Ei turned his head to look at him, blinked at his tanuki eyes, and the two silly hairs on his head swayed in the wind on his head, "Ang, got it", and then added, "You too." ”
"It's not even close!" Echizen lowered the hat on his head, covered his eyes, and spat out such a sentence from his mouth.
Okay, okay, okay
Ei Tanuki had gradually gotten used to Echizen's twisted personality and shrugged his shoulders.
During the break after the school registration, Ei sat alone on a stool in front of the vending machine, holding a grape-flavored Fanta in her hand.
"Are you the manager of Qingxue?"
At this moment, a teenager wearing a lilac sweatshirt with an apricot-colored doll head, holding small clips on each side of the sea, and carrying a tennis bag on one shoulder appeared in front of Eiko.
Looking at the cute big-eyed girl in front of her, Ei Nixuki nodded with a slight smile.
Seeing that Eko was getting along well, the girl was not so restrained, and then walked to the next side of Eko and sat down.
"Fanta tastes good with grape flavors, too." The girl looked at Fanta in Eiko's hand and sighed.
"Well, nice to meet you, you're also here to see the game?" Eiko turned her head to look at the girl beside her and asked her questions
"yes, my brother has a game today."
Hearing this, the civet raised his eyebrows, "Yes, then come on!" ”
The girl glanced at Eko, "Actually, I've seen you."
Ei was puzzled by her words: "Have you seen me? ”
"Yes, just a few days ago on the street tennis court, weren't you talking to the two young players on the court? I happened to be sitting on a stool not far away, and I just happened to see it. The girl on the other side said such a paragraph with a smile.
"Huh? It's a pity I didn't look behind me that day, so I didn't find you, I'm sorry. Ei looked surprised when she heard this, and apologized.
"No, no," the girl shook her head
"My name is Orange Apricot, what about you?" The girl named Tachibana Xing immediately regained her smile just now, and said enthusiastically to the civet in front of her.
"Uesugi Eiko"
When Tang Xing heard this, he hurriedly looked at the girl beside him
"Ah, you're the one..."
Eiko nodded, indicating that she was right.
"It's you, can I call you a raccoon? You can call me Apricot too," Ei replied as she listened to what she said.
"Yes"
"So little fox, do you think you can win this time?" Tachibana asked, looking at the civet in front of her with her big eyes.
Eri smiled, "I'm confident in them"
"You'll find out when you watch them play"
Tachibana nodded, seeing that the time was almost up, and got up, "I hope you can meet my brother's team, come on, little fox." The game is about to start, I'll go first," he said, then turned around and waved his hand away.
