Chapter 22: Drinking

As Akagi's roar became more frequent and the prefectural tournament was getting closer and closer, the pressure on the team members was also increasing. Only Chimu and Mu Du of the Xiangbei basketball team have participated in county competitions, which can be described as extremely inexperienced.

If this continues, before the game starts, the big players may be knocked down by the pressure first. Although he has defeated Lingnan before, it is not a regular competition after all.

Look at the low-level mistakes that the players make in their usual training. Mitsui was secretly anxious. After the day's training.

"Everyone come here," Mitsui clapped as he watched the crowd who were about to leave.

"What's the matter with Mitsui-senpai?" ....................................

"Everyone has been training so hard lately, tomorrow is the weekend, you don't have to go to school, today I invite everyone to eat and relax. How about you have a face?"

"Yay"

"Mitsui is the best"

"Thank you, Senior Mitsui......

The ten-member Xiangbei basketball team set off under the leadership of Mitsui.

Mitsui's chosen location is, of course, his own Chinese restaurant. It doesn't make sense for others to earn your own money. Mitsui's Chinese restaurant is on an avenue by the sea. A traditional Japanese building has two floors, with the first floor opening up to a façade and a large liquor sign written under the eaves. It's a bit like an inn in ancient times.

The restaurant is relatively large, and the first floor is a hall of about 300 square meters, with staggered dining tables. It feels very elegant, bright and clean. On the second floor, there are several private rooms, as well as a kitchen, and an office with a meeting room.

"Young master, you're here" A very beautiful woman walked up, and the close-fitting OL uniform tightly wrapped her body, outlining the woman's perfect figure. The wavy curls are draped over the shoulders, and the faint makeup and smile make the woman full of intellectual beauty.

"Wow, Sister Xiangxiang, you are so beautiful today, if anyone marries you, they will die happily. Hehe, let's send the food you prepared today to the private room on the second floor, where will I eat with my friends today" Mitsui's resistance to beautiful women has never been very high. What's more, such a beautiful woman, praise is naturally indispensable, anyway, you don't need money to spit.

"Hehehe, young master, you are really good at laughing, how can I be so good as you say" The woman covered her mouth and smiled.

The first-year players in Xiangbei who watched were dizzy. As soon as the first-year team members entered the restaurant, they were overwhelmed by the environment of the restaurant, and they were even more surprised to see such a beautiful manager called Mitsui "Young Master".

Mitsui naturally led everyone to bring the private room on the second floor. Looking at the strange expression of the first-grade junior, Mitsui smiled and said, "This is a Chinese restaurant I opened, and I usually eat here at noon, mainly because I prefer to eat Chinese food." Everyone can order it casually, but I don't know if everyone likes to eat it. ”

"Okay, then we're welcome" Ito knew the strength of the Mitsui family, and quickly recovered from his surprise.

It's just that someone is faster than him, and Tokuo Horida has already pulled the waiter and started ordering his favorite dishes. Tokunan, Akagi, and Mu Du have all come to the Mitsui store, and the more beautiful women see it, the immunity will naturally be stronger. There are virtuous men to set an example, and everyone quickly let go of their reserves.

The food was soon served, what kung pao chicken, dry pot cabbage, sizzling beef, stir-fried screws, boiled fish...... The appetite of the crowd was greatly aroused. Mitsui asked the waiter to bring a few bottles of Erguotou specially brought from China.

"Here, have some wine, this is imported from China, it's very strong" Mitsui opened the cap and poured a full glass for everyone.

Smelling the spicy smell of wine wafting from the quilt, Ito cautiously said, "Senior, that...... Let's have a drink at the bar, it's stronger than soju."

"What, how can a man drink sake, a man wants to drink the strongest sake" Mitsui waved his hand very imposingly.

"Come, do one, for the future of the basketball team" Mitsui used to drink a lot of wine for entertainment, and Erguotou always had a plot that people who drank liquor.

"Wow, it's spicy"

"Ahem" ............

Akagi and the others had eaten at Mitsui several times, but this was the first time they had drunk sake, and the strong liquor entered through their throats, and the hot and spicy taste burned all the way to their stomachs. The choked Xiangbei crowd burst into tears.

The German man, who has a few months of bad juvenile records, obviously has a lot of alcohol, and he didn't entertain him before arguing that Mitsui had such a good wine, and vowed to drink up the treasures of the Mitsui store. Akagi also embodies the true nature of eating big black pillars, although his forehead is choked with sweat, he doesn't gnaw. There was no change in his face, and Mitsui's malicious guess must be that Akagi was too dark to see the blushing.

China's food culture is broad and profound, and the appetite of people in northern Hunan who are accustomed to eating barren Japanese food is very high. A glass of white wine and eat some spicy and spicy dishes, sweating, this taste is very refreshing.

They are all young people, and they all have the pride of manhood, and after a glass of white wine, the alcohol that swells up makes the last bit of reserve disappear without a trace. Everyone swept the food on the table. The atmosphere was quite intense for a while.

"Come, Mitsui, I salute you"

"Okay, drink one"

"Twilight, let's have one, too"

"Miyagi, come and have a drink"

"Akagi, gorilla, come!"

"In order to reach the joint finals, drink"

"Cheers to the domination of the country"

Cheers......

Men's friendship is easiest to establish at the wine table, and the days when men eat meat and drink are the most suitable for men. The atmosphere in the box is getting stronger and stronger.

How can a five-foot man not drink, so Mitsui and they toasted each other shoulder to shoulder. Talking about this year's ambitions and future ideals. Mu Du was also in love, looking at this year's basketball team, he actually cried.

After seven or eight catties, everyone drank crookedly. Mitsui was also very drunk. Before falling asleep, I thought that my grandmother's Lao Tzu drank a pound of liquor like playing back then, and why didn't I bring the amount of alcohol when I crossed it.

After Mitsui's reconciliation, the atmosphere in the team is really much better. There is no longer simply awe between seniors and juniors, but more harmony. This is a great help in the construction of the team.

The game is getting closer and closer, but the treatment of the Xiangbei basketball team before the game this year is very different from that in the original book. More and more students came to watch the game, and even organized a cheerleading team in Xiangbei.

Although there is still a big gap compared with other schools, everyone believes that as long as the team can perform well in the county competition, it is no longer a luxury to organize large-scale cheerleading teams such as Hainan, Lingnan and Xiangyang.

At least the scale is much better now than when Xiangbei was in the third grade in the original book, and there is no professional cheerleading team in Xiangbei in the original book, only Rukawa Kaede's Rukawa Life, Haruko's trio, Sakuragi Legion and the Mitsui Guards led by Tokuo.

Cheerleading is a huge help to the team, and basketball is not just about skill. Tactics, venues, and experience can all make a huge difference.

Xiangbei was able to organize such a professional cheerleading team, and Mari's role was indispensable. Since the practice matches in Xiangbei and Lingnan, Mari has been committed to the promotion of the Xiangbei basketball team.

A few days ago, Mari also did an exclusive interview with the Xiangbei basketball team. This was written after Mari, who was deeply affected by the atmosphere of the game, asked to visit the Xiangbei basketball team again, but this time no one drove her away, but welcomed her very much.

The article is full of exaggerated praise, Mari wrote in the article that Xiangbei defeated Lingnan, the top four in the county, when the ace players could only play for 20 minutes, and there is no doubt that Xiangbei has been qualified to attack the king Hainan.

In order to better let the alumni of Xiangbei know the basketball team, there is an introduction of the players at the end of the article.

Akagi Gangxian: Captain of the Xiangbei basketball team, 197 cm tall, center on the court. Captain Tsuyoshi Akagi in the first year was already a pillar of Xiangbei, and this year's Captain Akagi is even stronger and has grown into a first-class center in the prefecture.

In the battle with another super center in the prefecture in Lingnan, Captain Akagi was in an advantage at both offensive and defensive ends. Captain Akagi's role on the inside line is the pillar of Xiangbei's victory. Captain Akagi's biggest dream is to dominate the country.

Mitsui Shou: Vice captain of the Xiangbei basketball team, 184 cm tall, is the ace player of Xiangbei. On the court, he can be a small forward or a scoring guard, with good left and right hands, and can attack from any position on the court, and his defensive ability is super strong.

Mitsui Senpai, who graduated from Goshi Junior High School, is the best player in the country. The top figure in the high school basketball world, who was unable to participate last year because of a leg injury, and Mitsui's seniors, who returned from recuperation this year, can only play for 20 minutes, but they can still make great contributions to Xiangbei, which is the key to Xiangbei's victory.

He is the sharpest sword that can cut all thorns, and he is the strongest shield against all invasions.

Mu Du Gongyan: A second-year player in Xiangbei, 178 cm tall, scoring guard. He is a partner who grows up with Captain Akagi, and in the most difficult time in Xiangbei, he and Captain Akagi support the Xiangbei basketball team together. The accurate three-point shot made Mu Dui senior like an elegant assassin, ruthlessly penetrating the enemy's defense again and again.

Tokuo Horita: A second-year player in Xiangbei, 187 cm tall, big forward. Senior Tokuo is the main center of the former national championship team Goishi National High School, and helped Mitsui senior win the national championship together. The strength is strong, and the offensive ability of the front line of the penalty area is difficult for even Captain Akagi to defend.

Ryota Miyagi: A first-year player in Xiangbei, 167 cm tall (a few centimeters longer), point guard. Miyagi, who is not very tall, has good strength. The supposedly electric speed makes the defender helpless, and he can always get the ball where it is needed most. Efforts are being made to the prefecture's chief guard.

Jun Ito: @#¥%......&*.................................

At the end, the article once again praised the Xiangbei basketball team, saying that the Xiangbei basketball team will definitely be able to reach the joint finals this year. And called on everyone to cheer for the basketball team. Compete for the honor of the school.
