Chapter 424: Return, New Captain of Xiangbei!

After the national competition, the Xiangbei High School players who successfully won the championship did not rush back to Kanagawa Prefecture in a hurry, and successfully "dominated the country", and the long-term wish of the third-grade team members was successfully achieved.

Without this pressure, Mitsui Shou and others completely let go of themselves, and took advantage of the summer vacation to start "shopping", "eating", "shopping", and "eating" in Hiroshima.

Mitsui Shou, who has hundreds of millions of excellent conditions at home, waved his hand, and the food, accommodation, and play of the Xiangbei team members in Hiroshima were all paid for by Mitsui Gongzi of the Mitsui Foundation.

For example, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Kiyota Nobunaga, who are more average family conditions, were very excited when they heard Mitsui Shou's words, and in the time after the game, they actually became Mitsui Shou's followers, and they ate, drank and had fun with Mitsui Shou, and completely indulged themselves.

But in the end, the team members in Xiangbei are all high school students, even if they are indulgent, there is nothing out of the ordinary.

Several famous restaurants near the gymnasium have left traces of the players of Xiangbei High School.

After Mitsui Shou and the team played crazy for a few days, Xiangbei High School officially took the train back to Kanagawa Prefecture.

On the fast-moving train, there was silence in the carriages.

During the game stage, the pressure of the Xiangbei players was actually quite large, and after the pressure was completely released after the game, the players could feel deep fatigue one by one.

At this time, in the carriage where the Xiangbei team members were seated, the Xiangbei team members leaned their heads on the back of the seats and fell asleep.

Jinguji Martial Arts sat by the window, looking at the scenery outside the window with one hand on his cheek, dozing off.

He is a physical monster, and after experiencing back-to-back national competitions, he can clearly feel the decline in his state, which is not physical exhaustion, but more psychological exhaustion.

And this kind of mentality will also directly affect the performance of physical functions, and the listless appearance of martial arts is affected by this "psychological fatigue".

Sitting next to the martial arts of Jinguji Temple is Mitsui Shou. Unlike the listless Jinguji martial arts, the current Mitsui Shou is in good spirits.

On the small table in front of him, there was a half-meter-high national championship winning trophy, and Mitsui Shou held a small rag in his hand, carefully wiping the trophy on the table.

Obviously, this trophy is new, and the trophy is not stained, and there is not even ash at all, but Mitsui Shou is constantly wiping it, and sometimes even "ha" towards the trophy, looking like a baby.

"Squeak."

The rag rubbed against the trophy with a slightly high-pitched sound.

After a long time, Jinguji Martial Arts finally turned his head a little helplessly, sighed softly, and joked to Mitsui Shou:

"Little San, it's already very clean."

"Don't wipe it anymore."

"If you wipe it again, the paint will be wiped off by you."

Mitsui Shou, who was sitting next to the martial arts of Jingu Temple, heard this, and it seemed that he did not listen to the ridicule of the whole martial arts, and he actually asked a little nervously:

"The paint is wiped off?"

"Where?! Which wiped it off?! ”

Mitsui Shou's attention was all on "wiping the trophy", Jinguji Martial Arts, this guy only listened to half of it.

“.”

"I mean, if you wipe it any more, the paint will be wiped off."

Jinguji Martial Arts glanced at Mitsui Shou a little speechlessly, held his chin, turned his head sideways to look at Mitsui Shou who was carefully inspecting the trophy, and continued to quip.

However, Mitsui Shou didn't seem to hear the ridicule in the martial arts, but replied seriously:

"No, this trophy is painted with gold paint, which is very strong!"

"If you don't use sandpaper, you can't grind it off at all!"

While speaking, Mitsui Shou seemed to "see" that the trophy was a little "dirty" again, picked up a rag, and wiped it carefully.

After a long time, Mitsui Shou looked at the trophy that was so bright that he could already reflect his face, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Little San, this trophy is so heavy for you."

"Basketball has a long road, it's just a national tournament winner, is it necessary?"

"You're sure you'll be able to get a trophy that is more valuable than this one in the future."

Jinguji Takemichi is not a native of Neon High School after all, although he, like Mitsui Shou and Akagi, hopes to lead Xiangbei to win the championship.

But after winning the championship, Wu Dao has no so-called "obsession" for this matter.

He actually has no way to understand what kind of thing the champion of the high school prefectural competition is in the eyes of high school students like Mitsui Shou and Akagi.

This trophy can be said to be the "testimony of youth" in the entire life of Mitsui Shou and others.

Value, for them, is immeasurable.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"What do you mean by 'winning a national competition', 'that's all'?"

"This is a national victory!"

"After all these years, I finally got it!"

"With this, my high school career can be regarded as complete!"

Mitsui Shou was quite dissatisfied with the indifferent attitude of Jinguji Martial Arts, and retorted loudly. Then he held the trophy on the small table with both hands and sighed softly.

"Yes, after all, I've been working hard for so many years."

"It's a good result now, and it's not bad."

When Wu Dao heard Mitsui Shou say "so many years", he was able to empathize a little more and nodded. Then Martial Arts seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and asked Mitsui Shou:

"Speaking of which, what's next for you?"

"You're in your third year of high school now, and the University of Tsukuba should have invited you before, are you going?"

"Or do you want to go to another university? When you go back to Kanagawa Prefecture, there will be a lot of colleges and universities coming to you, how about it, do you want the school you want to belong to?! ”

Neon's school system is a little different from that in China, like in China, at this time, the senior high school students are afraid that they have already filled in the volunteers, right? But in Neon, the promotion is at the beginning of spring, which is generally decided in February and March, and it will be reported to the school in April.

For example, a "special student" like Mitsui Shou was able to establish the school he wanted to go to in the future as early as the first two semesters of his senior year of high school.

It is foreseeable that Mitsui Shou, who helped the team win the championship and performed well in the national competition, will definitely be favored by more colleges and universities. This summer, Mitsui Shou is afraid that it will become very busy.

"Intended?"

"I'm going to do it!"

Listening to Wu Dao talk about this, Mitsui Shou raised his head with some emotion, looked at the ceiling of the train, and fell silent.

During this time, Mitsui Shou was actually avoiding talking about this matter, if he could, Mitsui Shou really wanted to be teammates with the martial arts and a few of them all the time, and they would continue to play like this.

But reality always rolls forward, not Mitsui Shou can hide by escaping, he is going to leave Xiangbei High School and go to a higher place after all.

"Martial arts, I don't plan to retire this summer, I still want to continue playing, participate in the autumn tournament with my teammates, and participate in the winter tournament!"

"I plan to accept the invitation of the University of Tsukuba in advance and play at the University of Tsukuba in the future."

"In this way, I don't have any pressure in terms of cultural classes."

"Even, I want to play professional basketball!"

Professional basketball in the context of Mitsui Shou does not refer to the national team, but to American professional basketball.

Neon's player training system is very different from Huaguo, Neon's youth training is actually to call a talented high school student together, and then practice together, the essence of which is to rely on campus basketball to select outstanding players.

However, the player training system in China is different, in China, basketball players are specially trained, such as campus basketball, and the players played in the campus basketball game will not be recognized by the coach of the national character at all.

All provincial teams are echelon construction, and talented children have already begun to take professional special training when they are teenagers.

There is no such thing as a player in the school who has the talent and strength to surpass the youth system. Even if there is an occasional person with outstanding talent, parents will most likely not let their children give up their studies and go to the single-plank bridge of "professional basketball".

In China, an Asian basketball powerhouse, this is still the case, and in places like Neon, there is very little room for professional basketball players to live.

The young Mitsui Shou is going to play professional basketball when he opens his mouth, and if others hear it, I'm afraid he will mock Mitsui for not being able to do it. However, Wu Dao didn't mean to laugh at Mitsui Shou's thoughts, but nodded seriously and said:

"Professional basketball!"

"Little San, I suggest you go out and fight, don't stay here."

"In the zoo, you can't keep beasts."

"I'm going to play for another year and just go out and play, and there's not much I want to pursue here."

"In this year's time, I plan to settle down again."

Jinguji Martial Artsy heard that Mitsui Shou was going to take a career path, and seriously gave his own advice. The reason why he is still playing here is only because there is another opponent here that he has not been able to completely defeat.

Lingnan High School's Sinomiya Field, Jinguji Martial Arts intends to completely defeat the other party, and then go to the United States to study in the fourth year of high school, that's right, it's not the third year of high school, it's the fourth year of high school.

Jinguji Takemichi plans to spend a year showing his talent after going there, and if he can get the favor of the NBA in high school, then Takemichi will directly participate in the draft as a high school player.

If his talent fails to attract the attention of the NBA, Wu Dao will go to college in the United States safely, find a strong school to play, and see if his strength and potential can get attention.

In today's era, in the sport of basketball, the yellow race is discriminated against, Jinguji Martial Arts knows that his path will be very difficult, but this road, he will definitely go on!

As for returning to China to play youth training first, and then logging in to the NBA in a roundabout way, this plan has already been rejected by Wudao itself.

He was afraid of being saddled with some inexplicable terms.

The conditions in the martial arts are not bad, so there is no need to take these detours.

If you don't have the talent and strength to play in the NBA, and you have thought about martial arts, then you won't play professionally, take over the family business, and return to China to "wholesale" the land.

There is no way to chase dreams, so it's okay to lie down and be a salted fish.

"Do you want to play abroad?"

"You're right, but I'll have to think about it."

"I tried out there for a while, and the living environment for Asians is quite harsh."

Mitsui Shou seemed to think of something, and said with a little emotion.

"On the basketball court, after all, it's a place to talk with the ball."

"As long as you have strong enough strength, opportunities will always come!"

Jinguji Martial Arts lightly tapped the table board and said with a smile. He is still optimistic about the future, and compared to other aspects, basketball is already a very fair thing.

"Well, I'll think about it." Mitsui Shou nodded, lowering his eyelids slightly, as if he was seriously considering the words of martial arts.

While the two were talking, Coach Anzai, who was sitting on the back seat of Mitsui Shou and Jinguji Martial Arts, opened his eyes, pushed his glasses, and did not interject, but sighed invisibly.

There are players again, and they are going to go down that path.

Every time this happens, Coach Anthy remembers the talented player he once coached.

It's just that compared to Tanizawa, today's Mitsui Shou and Jinguji Martial Arts are two high school students who are more mature!

But the difficulty of the road will not become much easier because the players mature, and what Martial Arts and Mitsui Shou will face in the future will be a storm!

The conversation between Martial Arts and Mitsui Shou was also heard by Rukawa Kaede, who was sitting not far away. Although Rukawa Kaede now has the idea of playing in the United States, this idea is not so strong and urgent.

Rukawa Kaede's idea is also very simple, in his opinion, even a "peak" like Jinguji martial arts has to be precipitated for a year before going abroad to play, a player of his level, what is he doing in such a hurry to go out?!

He just needs to keep getting stronger until. Surpass Jinguji Martial Arts!

The carriage fell into silence again, the players were resting, Mitsui Shou was pondering, and Jinguji Martial Arts was also tired and lying on the table for a while, planning to take a nap.

The train was speeding on the tracks, carrying the players from Xiangbei back to Kanagawa Prefecture.

After the Xiangbei players returned to Kanagawa Prefecture, Coach Anzai announced the disbandment and gave the players ten days off.

After the holiday, the players in Xiangbei will end the vacation early and start training to prepare for the autumn national sports at the beginning of the autumn semester.

During this time, Mitsui Shou also made a decision, and after discussing with his family, he decided to plan to go abroad in advance. At the same time, after making up his mind, he found Coach Anthy and asked Coach Anthy's opinion.

In the face of Mitsui Shou, Coach Anzai didn't say anything against it, he just asked Mitsui Shou to learn English well, and it was not too late to go abroad.

For a child of a family like Mitsui Shou, other cultural classes may be a mess, but there is no need to worry about English ability.

Therefore, on the day of the resumption of training in Xiangbei, Mitsui Shou appeared in the stadium in regular clothes and announced his plan to retire with the players.

Mitsui Shou, who stepped down as captain, handed over the "baton" to Jinguji Martial Arts, and Jinguji Martial Arts, a second-year student, became the new captain of Xiangbei High School.

At the same time, those who announced their retirement at the same time as Mitsui Shou also included Akagi Gangxian, Chiba Oishi, and Konobu Ki in the third grade.

Chiba and Mu Du are both players with average talent, even if Xiangbei wins the championship, no university will invite them in advance, and the two of them also know that with their own ability and talent, they can't take the route of "specialty students" at all, so they quit the department and plan to concentrate on preparing for the entrance exam.

On Akagi Gangken's side, the coach of Fukasawa Sports University had private contact with Akagi, and the two sides also reached a preliminary intention. This summer, Akagi Tsuyoshi will not train in Xiangbei, but will go to Fukasawa Sports University to participate in their team training in advance.

At the same time, first-year Rukawa Kaede and Sakuragi Hanamichi, and second-year Miyagi Ryota all received invitations from the Neon Academy team to participate in the training camp.

Although Wu Dao was also invited, he refused. That kind of big joint practice, for him, is useless at all, what to do?!

Therefore, when Mitsui Shou and other third-graders announced their retirement, two first-graders in the team were absent~

This summer, there has been a huge change in the personnel of Xiangbei High School!
