Chapter Eighty-Three: Mr. Haas's Hole Cards
On the wall, the second hand in the wall clock slid up again, and the tip of the needle hit the '12'.
In the next second, in the three minutes that had just slipped away, the players, coaches, and agents sitting in the office all smelled the sour smell of the gutter in the dead end.
For three minutes, the three of them were speechless.
However, the three of them have different physical attitudes, and when Coach Corboni finished sipping the last drop of coffee juice, he dialed the phone line, instructed the assistant to make another cup of coffee for himself, and emphasized:
"Add me two sugar cubes and send them as much as you can!"
Before Coach Corboni hung up the phone, he gave another look to Carbine and Mr. Haas, and said, "Do you need coffee?" β
Mr. Haas is not the type of person who likes to pretend to be polite, but he still chose to wave his hand, and Coach Corboni saw this, so he said "um" and looked at Carbine again......
Carbine's hands didn't move, but his head was bobbing in a daze, and unlike Mr. Haas, Carbine's mouth was still bent towards Coach Corboni, as if to reject someone else, and add some politeness.
Coach Corboni said "um" again and said into the sound hole of the phone: "Hmm! Just a glass for now! β
"Shh~!"
Coach Coboni, who was sitting in the office chair, put the telephone and leaned closer to the desk, his ten fingers crossed and clasped, his eyes rolling, and he glanced at the clock on the wall when he saw that the player and his agent sitting opposite him still did not mean to speak......
"Ahem~!"
Coach Coboni seemed to be using a light cough to continue the interview, and it was rare that Kabine, who had maintained an idiot image during the interview, understood the other party's meaning very well at this moment.
Although Kabine wanted to give words, he felt that he had reserved the dozen or so lines of dialogue in his mouth. In Coach Coboni's heart, it's like a bunch of nonsense, and it's all in vain.
In fact, Carbine was more than willing to give an explanation, but tragically, Coach Corboni was very stubborn, and after the veteran coach blindly confirmed his opinion, he would think that Carbine's explanation was just a cover-up.
The wall of trust that coaches and players have built together is crumbling......
Since Carbine had no intention of giving words, the important task of negotiating with Coach Corboni was naturally entrusted to Mr. Haas. Seeing this, KabinΓ© really twisted his head and winked at Mr. Haas. He said, "What should I do?" β
Mr. Haas gave him a look back, and then whispered, "I feel so uncomfortable! β
"What?" Kirbine asked, grimacing.
"I mean, I feel so bad!" Mr. Haas raised his voice a little.
Kirbine was stunned, not knowing how to answer. Because he didn't know what Mr. Haas was saying, Coach Coboni was calmer. The old man asked:
"Where's the discomfort? We have a team doctor here. Maybe I can check it out for you! β
Mr. Haas tilted his head and said, "I just want to smoke!" After smoking, it won't feel so bad! β
Suddenly, Kirbine quickly covered his mouth and choked out the laughter that was about to burst out. As for Coach Corboni, he wasn't that particular about it. Because the office is his 'home turf', he laughs......
After a three-second pause, Coach Corboni let out another "sigh" and handed the paper cup he had just used for coffee to Mr. Haas. said: "Use this to fill the ashes, but only one is allowed to be smoked!" β
Mr. Haas replied, "Actually...... Suck one is enough! Because this interview will be over soon! β
"Oh~? Is it? Coach Corboni said with a smile.
Mr. Haas didn't pay much attention to the questioning, he had already done what countless smokers do, he took out his cigarette case, took out the cigarette, put it to his lips, and with a little lighter, the smoke ring floated up at once......
After taking two hard breaths, Mr. Haas exhaled and sighed, "Much more comfortable!" β
"Now it's comfortable! Then it's time for us to move on! Coach Corboni said.
Mr. Haas flicked the cigarette ash into the paper cup and said, "Do you really want to talk?" β
Coach Corboni replied: "The player you are in charge of is likely to be severely punished by the team for going to a bar to drink while he is recuperating from an injury, is that ...... Don't we have a reason to talk about it? β
With that, Coach Corboni and Mr. Haas glanced at Kabine.
And Carbine already knew that the rest of the time would be performed by Coach Corboni and Mr. Haas, so he subconsciously closed his mouth.
The pace of the interview did not linger for long, but Mr. Haas was already saying, "We can talk, but how can we talk?" β
"What do you say?" Coach Corboni replied.
Mr. Haas stood up and said, "Coach, I have no opinion on your rigorous style of military management, and I just want to emphasize one last time, the specific reason why Carbine went to Berry Street, in fact, I don't know very well, but I believe that he definitely didn't go to drink, this is a sign of mutual trust, because as long as we still trust each other, then Kabine and I will have the opportunity to continue to work together!" β
After speaking, Mr. Haas took a quick puff of his cigarette.
Here, Coach Corboni said: "What if the partnership between the two has lost trust? β
Mr. Haas flicked the ash of his cigarette and said, "Let's not talk about this for now, that ...... I'll let you guess, do you know where I just got here? β
"I don't know!" Coach Corboni replied.
"I went first to Turin, then to London, and finally to Granada!" β
Coach Corboni waved his hand lightly and said, "Oh~! I see, but I'm sorry! I'm not interested in knowing your private itinerary! β
After saying that, he deliberately made a joke.
When Mr. Haas heard this, he said: "You are mistaken, this is not a purely private trip, and the purpose of my trip to Turin and London is because of Carbine!" β
"Oh~?" Coach Corboni was visibly stunned.
As he stayed aside, Kirbine remained silent, but his face grew grim as Mr. Haas's words touched the nerves of his brain.
Inside, three people.
One is preparing to speak, the other is preparing to answer, and the rest of the idiot can only listen quietly to others.
"Whew~!" Mr. Haas exhaled the smoke ring, shrunk his nose again, and said: "Coach, since you are also stunned, I will tell the truth, Juventus and Arsenal have sent commissioners and are in contact with me!" β
"For Kabine?" Coach Corboni asked.
"Yes~!" Mr. Haas replied.
Coach Corboni chuckled and said, "However, their handling methods are a bit illegal, right?" Why haven't I received any quotes yet? β
Mr. Haas said, "Coach, do you remember? When you wanted to buy Kabine, you used this trick too! β
Suddenly, Coach Corboni was stunned again, and did not mean to reply immediately.
Carbine, on the other hand, opened his mouth rarely, and asked Mr. Haas softly, "Are these the things you are talking about?" β
Mr. Haas replied softly, "That's right! βββ
Sprained his right ankle and had a good chance of missing his French debut.
After the report of the night visit to Berry Street came out, Mr. Haas resolutely decided to come and escort Carbine.
Juventus and Arsenal have already begun to take an interest in Kabine, so Mr. Haas has to come in to deal with it.
In fact, the so-called [several things] are only three things, but fortunately, Kabine did not make himself an idiot to the end, he just saw this qiΔ clearly.
What is even more surprising is that Mr. Haas is using one of them to try to solve the other.
"Tricks!" Kirby thought inwardly.
On the other hand, Coach Corboni is certainly a stubborn person, and he will not shake lightly when he is firm, but when Mr. Haas made this move, he hit his weakness, and in a thought, the old coach seemed to have no move to fight back.
At this time, Mr. Haas actually chose to add a mouthful and said: "Coach, since there is no trust between you and Carbine, it is better to come and go, anyway, Carbine is only twenty years old this year......
"Are you threatening me?" Coach Corboni turned his mind and said.
Mr. Haas took a puff of his cigarette and extinguished the cigarette with the brown residue that remained in the paper cup, and then replied, "No! Instructor! You're wrong! I'm here to remind you! β
As soon as he finished speaking, there were three knocks on the door, and Coach Corboni shouted: "Please come in!" β
The door slid open, and an assistant stepped in with a cup of coffee. (To be continued......)
