Prince of Tennis: I am a manager at Hyotei

"Hello everyone, the match with Seigaku was very exciting. I hope we can have another chance to compete next time."

Long Ge sincerely hoped that they had underestimated their opponents in this match. If they had been replaced by regular team members, the outcome would have been different.

Tachibana Jiping looked Long Ge in the eye and said, "I'm also looking forward to the next time, to be able to compete with the Hyotei's regular selection. Well, we'll be leaving now."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Ju Xing.

"Ah, brother, you guys know each other. I wanted to introduce you to each other. This is the girl who helped me back then. This is my brother Tachibana Jiping. I didn't expect you to lead Hyotei to participate in the competition. You're really amazing."

"So you're the friend who helped Xiao Xing. Hello, thank you so much." Ju Jiping expressed his deep gratitude.

Long Ge waved his hands repeatedly and said, "You're too polite. It's all my duty." Moreover, this matter was caused by his own minister. Long Ge didn't dare to say it out loud. It was obvious that Ju Jiping was not someone to be trifled with.

After waiting for Fudo Peak to leave, Long Ge took the Bingdi members away, remaining silent all the way.

They were all afraid of how to explain to Atobe when they got back. It would be easier for the second graders, but as a regular member of the team, Meido might face the fate of being kicked out of the regular team.

Looking at the fast-moving scenery outside the window, Long Ge stared blankly, but his mind was full of the match between Jiping Ju and Meido. The other one was defeated miserably before he even used his full strength.

It was inevitable that he would be pointed at and criticized when he returned to school, but Long Ge did not take these people's criticism to heart. After all, winning and losing were common things.

Meido, who was a regular member of the team, was called in for a talk immediately. When he came out, he was in a daze and went to Coach Sakaki in a very embarrassed manner, hoping to stay in the starting lineup.

The kind-hearted Feng has been defending Meido, and it was finally Atobe who spoke up to allow Meido to remain in the main selection. This also successfully aroused Meido's determination, and he even cut off his proud long hair to show his determination.

The loss was so devastating that some sophomores and juniors thought Long Ge would be removed from his position.

But the reality did not work out that way. After the game, Long Ge was still active in the training ground for the first and second grades as usual.

He even trained Suzuki Matsu directly and gave him personal guidance, which was a training method they had never seen before.

"It's really rare to see the training methods of professional players in a junior high school."

It turned out to be Mr. Inoue, a reporter from a tennis newspaper, and he came alone.

He had always had an impression of the name Echizen Ryuka but just couldn't remember it, so he went to visit Mr. Echizen Nanjiro again.

Nanjiro just waved his hand and told her that he might as well ask her directly.

Nanjiro hit a wall here and returned to the newspaper office. He searched for a lot of information but to no avail. Just as he was muttering Long Ge's name.

A colleague who covers American tennis news heard this and came over. "Inoue, so you like Echizen Ryuka too! How come I didn't notice it before?"

Upon hearing this, Inoue immediately approached his colleague and asked, "You know Echizen Ryuka! How did you hear about her?"

Your colleague was confused by the question, and if you hadn't asked it first, they would have thought you knew it.

"This Echizen Ryuka was a professional tennis player active in Los Angeles for the past two years. It's really not easy for him to embark on a professional career at such a young age. What a pity."

When my colleague said this, he stopped to drink tea, as if he was sighing.

Inoue was anxious, "What a pity! What happened?"

"Well, it's just something between professional players. I guess. She entered the professional scene at such a young age, which must have caused a lot of dissatisfaction. Then, for some unknown reason, she announced her retirement from professional sports in January of last year. Her whereabouts have been unknown since then. What a pity!"
