The calendar finally turned to May 17th, the day when this year's IH Kanagawa Prefecture Tournament began.

Thanks to last year's Dahe led the team to the quarterfinals, this year's county competition, Xiangbei does not need to start from the first round, so in the first round of byes, it will have to wait until the next day to face the winner between Tanbaqiao University and Yoshimoto University.

However, for the players in Xiangbei, they still have to attend classes on the morning of this Tuyao day. Suzuki didn't have a class, so he took the camera issued by the school to the basketball club and went to the nearby Fujisawa City Gymnasium to watch the game.

Although you don't need a ticket to watch a student game, there aren't many people who watch it. There are a few people sitting in the stands on all sides, most of them wearing school uniforms, which should be the cheerleading teams organized by the two teams of schools for the competition.

Suzuki walked to the last row of the side stands and sat down, with no one on either side, and he put the camera on his seat and first glanced at the two teams warming up on the field.

The two sides of this match are Otaku and Nanhama, and the winner between them needs to win one more game before they can get to Xiangbei.

Between Tamba Bridge and Yoshimoto, the match to determine the opponent of the second round of Xiangbei was scheduled for the afternoon.

Neither team has a particularly tall player, and the center forwards of both teams look to be in their early 180cm.

Suzuki wondered if the opponent was not strong, whether to experiment with the two-tower formation, or continue to practice Taiga's style of play as a playmaker.

The race soon began, and Suzuki set up a camcorder to film the game.

Less than 10 minutes into the game, Suzuki yawned, turned off the camera, and returned to the empty seat next to him.

The strength of the two teams on the field is too weak, and they are completely rookies pecking at each other, which makes people not interested.

Moreover, Suzuki's spirit is not very good, it is boring to watch, and he feels a little drowsy.

Suzuki didn't get enough sleep last night and watched TV late.

It was a replay of a football match, and what attracted Suzuki to the game was that the two sides of the game were China and Italy.

Last year's "5.19" incident caused a lot of uproar, and almost the whole world was exclaiming that there are football hooligans in Red China! Until the end of Suzuki's crossing, there were follow-up reports in the newspapers.

Suzuki thinks that it seems that the era of "X-phobia" has not yet reached this time, and wants to see what the national football team is in this era.

Facing the world champion-level powerhouse Italy, the Chinese team was obviously not an opponent, conceding two goals in a row in the first half, but fortunately maintained the score in the second half.

Suzuki recognized Jia Xiuquan and Shen Xiangfu, who would guide and scold Fang Yu in the A-A and Chinese Super League in the future, but he couldn't connect the handsome guy named Ancelotti on the field with the fat man who had been defeated repeatedly in the future.

Time is a knife to kill pigs.

Cherish life and stay away from the national football team.

Suzuki's mind was completely off the race in front of him, wandering around the world and thinking wildly.

Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the side.

Suzuki didn't care, because of his very homely personality, his social circle was very small, limited to the school and the upstairs and downstairs neighbors, and he knew very few people, so he didn't think the woman was talking to him.

The woman coughed, bent down, and said to Suzuki, "Excuse me." ”

Suzuki thought she was going to walk past him and sit inside, so she stood up and made way for a passageway.

Unexpectedly, the woman didn't go in, but continued to say to Suzuki: "May I ask, which TV station is Your Excellency from?" ”

Suzuki glanced at her and saw that it was a very handsome little girl with a camera in her hand and an armband on her arm, and denied, "I'm not from TV." ”

"Then you must be from the magazine. Your magazine is treated so well, and it is equipped with Panasonic's latest M7 camera! The woman's eyes were fixed on Suzuki's camera, and her eyes were full of frenzy.

Suzuki smiled dumbly, but he didn't expect to meet a camera enthusiast. The reason why he chose this camera was only because he had fiddled with this antique model in China in his previous life, not because this machine was in the best condition.

Suzuki explains, "I'm not a magazine either. I'm just a teacher at a high school in the county. ”

The woman repeatedly guessed Suzuki's identity, blushed, and said, "It's me who was rude." I'm an Aida reporter for a basketball magazine, but I don't have a business card yet. I'm so sorry. ”

Suzuki didn't care and said, "Let's sit down first." It's too conspicuous. You're an intern. ”

Aida nodded and said, "As you can see, I won't graduate until March next year." I haven't asked you what to call it. ”

Suzuki replied: "My name is Suzuki Hirofumi, and I am the instructor of the basketball club of Xiangbei University. ”

Aita's mouth opened slightly, obviously a little surprised, in her impression, basketball coaches are middle-aged people in their thirties, and Suzuki is too young.

Suzuki asked, "Do you like basketball?" How did you choose to intern at a basketball magazine? Basketball is a niche sport in Japan, and girls who like basketball are even rarer. ”

In Japan, an internship at a company before graduation is a shortcut to getting a job, especially for the print media industry.

Aida replied, "My uncle used to be a national basketball player, so he has loved basketball since he was a child. ”

Suzuki thought for a moment and asked, "Aita, is it Aitian Jinghu?" ”

Aida smiled: "I didn't expect that after so many years of retirement, there are still people who remember him." ”

Suzuki said: "A lot of their players are now in college coaches. Burri, coached by Genta Takeuchi, is the enemy that we must defeat in the finals of Xiangbei to enter the prefecture! ”

Aida clapped his hands and said, "yes, why didn't I think of that!" ”

With that, Aida took out a piece of paper from his pocket, glanced at it, then looked up at the stadium and said, "Not only Buri, but also the two teams in the next game are also in the fourth division." Coach Suzuki is here to scout the enemy in advance. ”

Suzuki nodded yes.

Aida continued, "So which team do you think will be Xiangbei's opponent tomorrow?" ”

Suzuki looked at the scoreboard, and with 2 minutes and 27 seconds left in the first half, the scores of Otaku and Minamihama were 18 and 17 respectively, and the scores were pitifully low.

Both teams are not defensive, and both sides have a lot of shots, and the reason why they have only scored so far is because both teams have too low shooting percentages!

Even the most ordinary three-step layup actually has a continuous scene of not entering, and the strength of these two teams can be imagined.

Suzuki really couldn't judge which of these two bad teams would be Xiangbei's opponent tomorrow, so he had to say: "No matter which team wins, Xiangbei will definitely win tomorrow!" I'll admit that I made a mistake, I shouldn't have spent time watching this game, it was a waste of time! ”

Putting down the domineering declaration, Suzuki said goodbye to Aita, left early, and returned to Xiangbei to prepare for the warm-up match with Minowa at noon.

Let's hope Minowa won't let me down. Suzuki thought.
