[Comprehensive main volleyball] long distance pass

"Yoshi~ Now tell me first, what else did you want to say?" At dinner, Mao pulled Naoi and Chiho to sit down in the izakaya again, and began to "settle the score" with her, and did not forget to add One sentence: "I mean when Hinata and Kageyama clashed~"

"Cat and coach, those are just some immature ideas of mine..." Chiho sat down on his knees in front of him, like a well-behaved cat, "The idea of ​​how Kageyama can make Hinata open his eyes and play fast break , do you really want to hear it?"

"You already have a solution?!" Naoi who was sitting next to Maomata was very surprised.

"Hahaha~Of course you have to listen! She's not like you, Xue~" Mao patted his assistant coach on the back hard again, "Listen to me too!"

"Yes..." Naoi was sweating coldly, no one could stop this old man once he drank.

"Well, then I'll start talking." Chiho's expression became serious, as if she was talking about a life-and-death matter—in fact, this is indeed Karasuno's top priority right now.

"As I said before, I have learned to play volleyball with Ruo Li from his father since I was a child, and I have played countless balls for him as a setter."

"Well~ so how is your setter level? I haven't heard you say that yet." The cat also straightened its back again, talking seriously with her.

Naoi looked left and right, and didn't dare to intervene, because he found that the auras of these two people had undergone a huge change. He was very familiar with Maoyou's state, but he never expected that the girl in front of him could exude such an aura. The unique air pressure—however, it doesn't make people feel scared, but it gathers together like a slowly flowing water, gently lifts people from the ground, and becomes like a fish in water when getting along with her.

"Well... I can only say that I specialize in tossing the ball. I can play all kinds of cooperation with the attacker. As long as he needs it, I can accurately hold the ball to the most suitable position." Chiho said in front of him. Shangmao didn't intend to hide it, and chose to be outspoken about his strength, "That is to say, similar to Yingshan, it belongs to the type that can accurately throw the ball and fully meet the needs of attackers."

"Hey, so good? It's a pity not to play the women's volleyball team... No wonder you found out the problem so quickly with what you said to Kageyama today." Mao clapped his hands again and praised. Although he still had a lot to ask Chiho, he still went ahead. I endured it, wanting to hear her continue.

"Oh~ That's too embarrassing for me! Do you think my small body looks like someone who can play women's volleyball... But, you have actually discovered Kageyama's problem a long time ago, haven't you?" Chiho smiled, with a pair of The light in the purple eyes flickered, "I know from what he said today that Kageyama's strength is undoubtedly strong, but he has a fatal flaw as a setter - he holds the initiative in cooperating with Hinata. And In volleyball, no matter what form of offense, the attacker should be the one who takes the lead—about this, neither of them realizes it, and there is a complete blank in training. Miss that by relying on 'weird rush'."

"Hahaha~ I did find out a long time ago, you think the same as I do." The cat smiled happily again, "Liu Xin is also young~ he is far worse than his grandfather."

"His dominance allowed Hinata to complete the 'Monster Rush' with his eyes closed, but he couldn't allow Hinata to dunk the ball perfectly with him when his eyes were open. Because of Kageyama's toss in 'Monster Rush' It is characterized by 'the ball passes through Hinata's RBI in a fast and straight line'. With his eyes open, Hinata needs to observe the ball path and block before making a shot. There is a short time for thinking, and this may also cause him to be unable to exert his maximum jumping ability ——Under the unfamiliar batting height and the infusion of too much visual information, Hinata who lacks training will not be able to dunk the toss of Kageyama."

"Exactly!" The cat raised his glass again and gave him a thumbs up.

"So in order to allow Hinata to play fast break with eyes open, the solution I proposed is—" Chiho lifted up the orange juice to touch him, took a sip to moisten her throat.

"Hinata needs to learn the 'rhythm differentiation' of offense and practice a lot, so that no matter who throws the ball to him, he can smash the ball with his eyes open. Kageyama also needs to change his way of throwing the ball in the fast break, although this kind of throwing the ball is not suitable for qualifications. It's hard to do with mediocre setters, but I'm sure he'll be fine - that's the 'hovering toss'."

"A toss that can hover?" Naoi opened his eyes wide, and suddenly realized, "If Kageyama can do it, Hinata can make a fast break with his eyes open...but this is really difficult!"

"Well~ this kind of toss is to lift the volleyball out, but to erase the speed of the ball at the batting position of the attacker - the mastery of the setter's strength and the use of anti-spin are extremely difficult." Mao explained again, "And as the distance of tossing the ball gets longer, the difficulty will become more and more difficult."

"Yeah~" Chiho finally finished her thoughts, and relaxed into a cross-legged sitting position, "It would be great if they could recognize these problems after returning home and train them accordingly."

"Hehehe~ Yasuhara, you really care about those two brats, but I wanted to ask you yesterday—what is the reason?" The cat raised an inquiring smile again.

"You don't know yet, do you? They came to Shiratorizawa to provoke Ruoli~ just the two of them." Chiho raised her head and narrowed her eyes, "I was there at the time, and their performance reminded me of a couple I had seen before. Combination...and that pair was successful, so I wonder if they will be successful too? After all, Shiratorizawa has entered so many national competitions in a row, if Miyagi does not have a strong team to challenge They, the qualifiers will become very boring~ And, out of selfishness, I want Ruo Li to realize something that I can't tell him personally..."

When Chiho said this, her face flushed slightly, she looked down at the table, and murmured: "He has always been confident in his own strength, which is a good thing...but the success of that pair made me realize that there must be a lot of people in this world. There will be people like them. It is an honor for the opponent to be able to fight with such a unique team. If Ruoli can face this kind of team before entering the national team, it will be more beneficial to his future growth Well...Of course, this is just a small unrealistic wish of mine, if Karasuno can't make this kind of team, I won't have any regrets, after all..."

"After all, you are on Shiratorizawa's side~hahaha~" the cat joked again, "There are not many people who can think about their opponents, so why don't you think more about our Yinju?"

"That's only because they are the opponents. It would be nice if Yinju had you." Chiho clinked glasses with him again, "I'm looking forward to the Senran co-sleeping~"

"Hmph, you escaped again!" The cat had the feeling that she had seen through the trap she had set up, "Forget it~ In short, whether the little crows can complete their evolution, we will see the outcome next time we sleep together!"

"Speaking of which, Yasuhara, who is the 'pair' you mentioned just now?" Naoi boldly asked after drinking some wine.

"Yeah, I'm curious too?" Mao asked again.

"That happened in my freshman year of high school..." Chiho continued to tell the story of the ups and downs of the "Generation of Miracles" to the two drinking seniors.

As a result, it was already late when I got home, just like yesterday.

When she received Niu Dao's email, she remembered what she had said to him during the day, so she called him directly.

"I'm sorry, Ruoli, I've been chatting with Maoyou and the others tonight..." Chiho spoke in a soft, watery voice, but with some fatigue, "I'm going to Saitama next week, and they still have a little time in Senran. I can’t refuse the old cat’s invitation for the week’s sleepover, so I won’t be able to come to Miyagi…”

"It's okay, you've worked hard these two days." Niu Dao was sitting on the bed in the dormitory and was about to go to bed. Just as he was about to lie down, he received a call from her, and his heart was filled with joy, "By the way... who is 'Old Cat'? ?”

"It's a cat and a coach!" Qiansui slumped limply on the bed, and said bitterly, "Smart, drinkable, and coquettish! They arrested me as a helper without hiring a manager at Yinju, and didn't even pay me! Woo... ...Although I learned a lot from him..."

Niu Dao sat on the edge of the bed, listening to her long-lost thoughts, he felt like teasing her.

"Hey, let me say." He interrupted Chiho's thoughts, the corners of his mouth raised, "Then you are a 'little kitty', right? It's pretty cute when you think about it..."

"Why do you even say that about me!" Chiho complained feebly, "Then Ruoli is the 'Great White Eagle'?"

"Really? Coach Maoyou called you that?" Niu Dao was a little stunned by her suddenly raised voice, but then a wave of jealousy arose spontaneously, and his voice became heavy: "Then next time you have a sleepover, don't go there." Alright."

"No, I've already agreed to it~ And you're still jealous with the elderly? Hahaha..." Chiho covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"This is me...!" The other party's pleasant voice came, and the rumored Niu Dao felt a little ashamed, and did not refute her, but warned: "Be careful when you sleep together in Senran, we will go there before. We slept together, although it was cooler there, there were quite a lot of mosquitoes.”

"Ah... I hate mosquitoes." Chiho gently stroked the teddy bear's fur, the comfortable touch spread from her fingertips, and she suddenly thought of something very important: "You IH will come to Tokyo next week Right? I’ll watch the game when I’m free~ Hahaha, I can’t wait to see Xiao Zuo’s performance~”

——"Xiao Zuo" is her nickname for another one of the "three main attackers in the country", the second grader at Jingdaishan Academy, Sakuzao Seiko.

"Huh?" Ushido realized that she was testing her bottom line again, "We will defeat Jingdashan this time."

"Please~ That's a candidate for the championship? I'm very happy that you can make it into the top three." Chiho yawned after saying this, "I'm sleepy, good night~"

"Okay, just wait and see." Ushishima turned off the lights, still full of confidence in his team, "Good night."

Chiho hung up the phone and stared blankly at the phone screen.

——Even Shiratorizawa, who dominates Miyagi, will be in a difficult situation when facing a strong enemy from all over the country.

——I have seen this kind of game many times.

"Even if Karasuno and the others can really enter the whole country..." Chiho muttered to himself in a daze, closing his eyes sleepily.

But come on.

In the top three of IH this time, there is still no Shiratorizawa.

"Oh~ there's no way." Chiho sat on the bus from Yinju to Senran, and sighed to the cat next to him, "Ruoli is restricted to death, and the national-level attackers and blockers are monsters. "

"Wujiu must be very angry, right? But what I didn't expect was that Inarizaki defeated Kiryu this time?" Mao watched the game broadcast again, "Brother Gong's performance is too impressive."

"It's strange when Coach Jiujiang doesn't get angry..." Chiho said with dead fish eyes, "Brother Gong is handsome and powerful, but I still prefer Sakuhaya~"

"Hey, if Niu hears your words, will he be sad?" Heiwei on the other side said suddenly, in a very tone of voice.

"He's not as fragile as you think." Chiho turned her head away, with a smirk on her face, "But you, why haven't you got a girlfriend yet? I thought you'd find a pretty girl with dark, long, straight hair?"

"Pfft..." Grinding, who was playing the game, laughed.

Black Tail blinked his innocent eyes and entered a state of petrification, as if he was really thinking about this question: "Ah, why?"

"Hahaha..." the cat laughed again, like an old urchin, "An Yuan, stop teasing these brats, none of them are worthy."

"Wow, no way~? Bachelor's club? No wonder you have never had a female manager." Chiho held her chin and seemed to be seriously analyzing the reason, "Well...it must be because you all look too bad, Scared the girls away?"

Her words caused [-] points of critical damage to Yinju's team, and the bus became completely silent.

"Maybe it would be better to change your hairstyle a little bit? Long bangs on one side, dyed blond hair, and mohawk..." Chiho was still talking to herself, and finally nodded firmly, "Yeah~ Jolly still looks better, At least the hair is always well-cut."

"Coach Nekomata—!!" Everyone began to beg in unison to the only person who could hold back the girl Chiho, who had an explosive attack power.

"Ah, sorry, I think so too~" the cat smiled again and spit out a sentence that made the teenagers fall into despair.

After that, in an eerie silence, the bus arrived at Senran High School in Saitama.

When getting out of the car, Mao took advantage of everyone getting off, pulled Chiho over and whispered, "This time, remember what I told you last time—you are our manager?"

"I see." Chiho understood, and took out a game record of the opponent's next match from her bag, shaking it in front of him: "Don't worry, I'm also very busy~ this month's ranking match I still have to prepare carefully."

"That's good, I will try my best to let you do some easy work this time." The cat patted her on the shoulder again, "Anyway, there are managers from other schools, so it's good that you are in charge of the practice games, and leave the chores to them .”

"Thank you for your understanding." Qiansui put away the chess record, and held up the old man's arm respectfully, "I'll help you down."

The environment of Senran High School is just like its name. It is located on a mountain, surrounded by green woods and rolling lawns. It is a good place to escape the heat in summer, so the multi-school dormitory in midsummer is always held here.

But as Ushido said, there are just too many mosquitoes.

Fortunately, Chiho was well prepared under the reminder of Ushijima and brought all kinds of mosquito repellent products, so she was able to "survive" in such an environment.

The form of this camp is to play a round-robin practice game during the day, and the losing team will receive a severe "special punishment"-running back and forth on the large slope lawn outside the gymnasium, and at night, there are three gymnasiums for the players to practice independently .

After Chiho greeted the managers of various companies, she walked to the side of the field for the first practice match between Karasuno and Xiaogu, preparing to watch.

——In the first round of practice, Yinju got a bye.

She can clearly feel that the atmosphere of this week-long long-term sleepover is very different from before.

Perhaps it is rare to be able to live with so many teammates and opponents for a long time, whether it is the teenagers as players or the girls as managers - they all exude a youthful vigor from the inside out , and the throbbing hormonal breath that can be seen everywhere.

It was the first time for her to experience this kind of accommodation, but she felt like she was out of it. After all, she was only entrusted by Mao Mata to help a little, and she had to return to Tokyo to prepare for the next match in three days.

Of course, there is another important reason—everyone knows that she is Ushishima Ruori's girlfriend, so she chooses to automatically avoid three points.

"That's good too." She put on her glasses and said to the cat beside her.

"Hohohoho~ Niu Ruo's power isn't something to hide." Unsurprisingly, he was ridiculed by the mischievous old man, "I think you can try to blend in with them? They are a group of very cute children."

"What exactly do you want me to do..." Chiho turned her head helplessly, "And even if I want to blend in with everyone, they might not be able to accept me, right?"

"You don't have to worry about that, they come here for only one purpose—" The cat remained calm again.

"Become stronger." Chiho answered, and nodded, "It's okay to start from this point, but..."

She was very confused, because when he got out of the car, he clearly gave her a warning.

"No, I've changed my mind." The cat just grabbed her shoulders again, and said in a low voice, "Aren't I afraid that you will be bored practicing chess by yourself~ as compensation for taking you away from Niu Dao? And , this is also for all the team members who came here... I said it, right? You are already ready to leave~"

"Coach Maoyou, is this going to suddenly change me from a manager to a coach?!" Chiho immediately understood what he meant, "No way... This is the real purpose of your inviting me here? But, isn't there already You guys..."

The cat just let go of its arms again, and said to her word by word with burning eyes: "For the independent practice at night, please keep an eye on them, especially the first graders. If you get tired of reading chess records, go to the gymnasiums for a walk." .”

"Oh, I really lost to you~" Chiho showed a helpless and soft smile, "It is possible, but there is no guarantee of time limit? Also, if the planned shogi practice is not finished, I will not go. "

"Of course, the coaching staff welcomes you to join, An Yuan." The cat grinned again, and looked at the players on both sides who were ready to go. "Then—the first practice match of Hesu, let's begin!"

The author has something to say:

In order not to be slapped in the face, I will not write this year's IH. I feel that the original work will probably mention more details...

Hope Ruo Li can have more roles in the future.
