Prince of Tennis: I am a manager at Hyotei

"No, you don't need training?"

Long Ge stretched out his hand to drive away the people who were gathered around to watch the fun.

A group of people surrounded the two of them as if they were watching a show. They had always seen high school seniors wearing this kind of clothes in the past.

This is the first time they've seen junior high school students wearing it, and Tezuka, they can't help but want to watch the fun. How can they not be excited?

"But doesn't Tezuka have any training either?"

Eiji's clear big eyes were filled with confusion.

Long Ge put his hands on his hips and tilted his head back to block Tezuka behind him. "Senior Tezuka has to listen to me all day today, so he has to follow me at all times. He is my follower today, do you understand? Even the coach can't order him around."

She could ask him to do whatever she wanted.

Someone smart pointed out.

"So, Tezuka doesn't need to do anything today, just follow you?"

Ying Er's worldview collapsed, and he was extremely envious, "This... This is too cool! When will Long Ge have a shuffle battle with me!"

Long Ge interrupted angrily, "Hey, hey, Senior Ying Er, have you forgotten why you came to this training camp? Don't even think about it!"

After saying this, he walked away with his little follower behind him in a proud and confident manner.

Eiji watched the two of them leave with a reluctant look in his eyes.

"Don't go! At least take me with you!"

After leaving the main stadium, he wandered around aimlessly with Tezuka, strolling around outside the main stadium, or watching others train, and commenting from time to time when he felt like it.

Otherwise, Long Ge would suddenly stop and stare at somewhere in a daze.

Tezuka followed behind very diligently.

After strolling around for a long time, Long Ge didn't do anything serious.

It's really boring to stroll around.

"Um, Long Ge, what do you usually do? Just wandering aimlessly... No, walking?"

Long Ge looked over, chewing the gum he got from Marui and blowing a huge bubble.

Since entering the training camp, the happiest person has to be Senior Jiro. He was assigned to the same dormitory with Marui and he was so happy.

Long Ge’s ears are almost covered with calluses from all the time he keeps talking about how great Marui is.

But the good thing is that occasionally Long Ge can pick out some snacks from the mouths of these two people.

The most popular one is Marui's chewing gum, which becomes more chewy the more you chew it.

"You just wanted to say I was wandering around."

He looked at Tezuka with a serious and innocent look.

"Uh…that's not what I meant."

Tezuka looked away, obviously lying!

"I don't mind what you think. I'm just wandering around. I don't have anything to do every day, unlike you guys who are busy and exhausted every day. Oh, I really want to go out and play! When will you come back, brother?"

Long Ge played badly and felt helpless.

"elder brother?"

I've never heard Echizen mention having a brother?

Tezuka's inquiring gaze was fixed on the trembling girl in front of him.

"Um... Tezuka-senpai, do you want to eat some gum?"

...

What a lame way to change the subject.

Seeing that Long Ge obviously didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask any more questions.

"It looks like it's lunchtime. Let's go to the restaurant! Eat by yourself and don't follow me!"

"But it's only eleven o'clock. It's not time yet."

Tezuka stretched out his long legs and stood in front of Long Ge.

"And Coach Saito also told me not to leave you alone, so I'll confiscate it for now."

He openly took away the snacks that Long Ge had just wanted to "bribe" him with.

Long Ge said weakly, "Don't... leave... leave some..."

This is not a follower at all, but more like an elder.

Long Ge had finally managed to stock up on some snacks, but he shouldn't have taken them out if he had known.

Never share with others again!

"I remember Coach Kurobe has arranged training for you. The time is perfect, go and finish today's training. Let's go."

Tezuka remembered that the high school student had mentioned this point specifically among the precautions he had given to Long Ge.

At the beginning, Long Ge would go sometimes and sometimes not, but since his height had changed a little, he would go every day. He would only be lazy occasionally and needed someone to urge him to go.

Damn! I don’t want to go. Resistance is written all over Long Ge’s face.

"Tezuka-senpai, it's rare for you to have some free time. Don't you want to take a good rest?"

Can't such harsh training in the training camp dampen your passion?

Long Ge was eager to get Tezuka to change his mind.

Take some time off! Take some time off!

Tezuka remained serious. "These are what a lackey does, right? Hurry up, Coach Kurobe is waiting for you."

There was no change on Tezuka's face, and his tone was impeccable, but...!

revenge!

Naked revenge!

Wearing that kind of clothes, saying that kind of things.

Tezuka, you are narrow-minded!

Long Ge was sadly urged by Tezuka to train, and also had training matches with others.

"Of course I have to be willing to do this. Why am I here to be your sparring partner? I want to go back and take a nap! Revenge, this is pure revenge!"

Under Tezuka's encouragement, I spent a very fulfilling day.

At dinner time, Long Ge looked half dead.

"Wow, what have you been doing today? Long Ge feels like he's about to see Buddha's light."

...

Long Ge's weak voice came out, "I will never...never compete with Tezuka again, you are so...small-minded."

Everyone looked confused. What on earth had Tezuka done?

After a day of hard work, even the grass that I usually disdained to eat became delicious.

As expected, Long Ge was not hungry enough before. It seems that the food is so delicious.

In the last bit of time as Long Ge's follower, Tezuka planned to send the person back and finish his work for the day.

By the way, there is one more thing.

"Long Ge, please tell me who asked you to compete with me."

Long Ge pounded his waist which was about to break.

Long Ge glanced at Tezuka and snorted.

"I won't tell you, guess it yourself, Omit!"

Long Ge is still quite vindictive.

Since that was the case, Tezuka planned to send the person here. Long Ge’s single dormitory was not far ahead.

Dragging the tired body.

"Oh, by the way, what do you think about the situation in Germany?"

The invitation from Germany that Long Ge mentioned.

Tezuka clenched his fists unconsciously, and then as if he had figured it out, his brows relaxed and he loosened his clenched fists.

"I'll stay here..."

These little movements and expressions caught Long Ge's attention.

Yo yo yo, who would believe that?

"Alright, for things like this, just follow your own heart and don't let yourself regret it. It's time to learn to work hard for yourself. I'm leaving now. Bye. I don't know if I can win tomorrow's game. My back hurts!"

After Long Ge said this to Shouzuka, he walked slowly while complaining about his sore back and waist, not knowing whether he would be able to get up tomorrow.

Until Long Ge disappeared.

Working hard for yourself?
