It wasn't until Coach Sun got on the bus and yelled rudely that the team members surrounding Hong Xiqi and Gu Yi dispersed.
—————————————————————————————————————
It rained heavily for a long time in the second half of yesterday night. The temperature was low this morning, and a thin layer of clear ice formed on the road.
Vehicles move slowly on the road, especially at intersections. A traffic light can only pass several vehicles, but rear-end collisions cannot be prevented, making the road even more congested.
The bus carrying the team members moved particularly slowly, and the drivers kept one thing in mind: "Safety first."
Because of this unexpected situation, when the team members arrived at the competition venue, the auditorium was already full, the staff were in place, and the venue warm-up was completed.
There are no extra activities. In the morning, there will continue to be the preliminaries of the women's singles competition. The matches were drawn yesterday.
There are already referees making preparations at each court, and there is a row of new tennis balls that have been selected in advance.
Because Coach Tan was away, Coach Sun led the entire No. 1 Middle School team by himself. From the moment he got off the bus, he never stopped.
It’s time to report to the referee’s bench, send lists to the referees at each venue, and get the players settled.
After a quick operation, only a black thermal underwear and a gray knitted vest were left on the hot body.
After the captain finally counted the number of players and confirmed full attendance, Coach Sun had time to take a sip of tea to quench his thirst, and then he immediately took out the list and called the players from the previous games to wait in different venues.
"Xu Yanxi, Tang Hui, take the rest of the people over and sit down. I'll be here in a moment. If Coach Tan comes, ask him to find me in Court 2." Coach Sun skillfully arranged tasks for the two of them, "There is an individual competition in the morning. Yes, after finding a seat and sitting down, I looked at the list I posted in the group. I knew in my mind which group I was in, which game I was playing, and who my opponent was. Especially if I was playing against Fujibashi No. 6 Middle School, hurry up. Read all the information again and think about how you will fight in the future!"
"The specific competition venues are updated in real time. The current list may not be accurate. I will send it to the group in advance. Remember to check the news!" The music in the stadium was loud, and Coach Sun put his hands in front of his mouth and shouted.
"Okay, those who have played the first five games, come with me." Coach Sun waved his hand, "Chen Yingying is playing one, Xu Yan is playing two. Hurry up and put your things away to get ready for warm-ups. The first game will start in less than ten minutes. , hurry up, hurry up, there is no extra time."
"You've done enough warm-up, don't get hurt!"
No. 1 Middle School was speeding up to prepare, and the players from other schools participating in the competition also raced against time to start moving their bodies while listening to the last instructions given to them by the coach.
The music in the stadium gradually became cheerful and lively, seeming to be promoting the progress of the game, making people feel nervous involuntarily.
Today, Xie Yu and his gang did not come to watch the game. They drove to Jinling Temple early in the morning. An hour ago, Song Xiaoan had posted a photo of munching corn on the mountainside while admiring the snow in the group of three sisters.
"Xiao Youyou, which game is this for you?" Hong Xiqi sat down in the front row, and the first thing she did was to open her schoolbag and pick out snacks.
"The seventh game." Tao You glanced at his opponent, a player from another private high school. He knew about it but had never been in contact with it. Fortunately, he was not from Fujiqiao No. 6 Middle School.
The staff are in place, cameras have been set up at various locations, the online live broadcast channel is open, the number of viewers is gradually increasing, and there are more and more barrages, gradually occupying the entire mobile phone screen.
The first games at each venue started in an orderly manner.
The players from each school in the audience did not pay that much attention to the competition in the three venues. Their attention was attracted by the gossip about why the coaches were called away in the morning.
The first few rows of the auditorium are reserved for the contestants, which results in the seats of each school being connected together. The original purpose is to make it easier for the next game and counting the people. It also feels that the team members are giving their own When the contestants are working hard and competing against each other, there will be a clear contrast on camera, making it more enjoyable to watch.
It's more convenient now
These team members gathered across schools to chat and gossip. The chairs that were neatly arranged five minutes ago were no longer in formation.
Whenever the camera pans over, what you see when zooming in are players wearing various team uniforms, gathering in twos and threes, with snacks distributed by each team in the middle. They are chatting more energetically than the audience, and some even take them out of their pockets. Take out the poker cards that come with the hotel and start playing Landlord.
In the live broadcast room, netizens posted comments and chatted animatedly.
"Hey guys, I think the organizers put all the schools together, definitely not for them to visit the schools and chat now!"
"It's like visiting relatives during the New Year. They can stop and chat wherever they go, and then grab some food and go to the next house..."
"Their expressions told me that between the end of the game last night and the arrival of the game this morning, some big gossip must have happened!"
"Who knows lip reading! Come decipher it! I'm so curious about what they are saying now!"
"+1! I'll invest a piece of money to find a lip translator in the barrage!"
"Why do I feel like there's more than one gossip! If you have any classmates who know them, please send me a WeChat message to ask!"
"Here, am I the only one who noticed? The players in this class are so good-looking! Are there so many handsome guys and beauties playing tennis?! Sister, is it too late for me to learn now?!"
"There is a boy over there in No. 1 Middle School. He is very handsome! He is fifth from the left in the second row! Within one minute, I want to know the details of this younger brother!"
"Report, the guy from No. 1 Middle School is named Song Yimian. He is 1.85.2 meters tall in the school physical examination half a year ago. He is in the first class of the second grade science key class and is ranked first in the school! He is a cool and elegant male god, and he is Duan Cao by default! He is also top-notch in tennis. It’s awesome!”
"You're so good-looking and you're a top student! Okay, my goal for next year's high school entrance exam is to get to No. 1!"
"Ahhhh! Have you seen that look in his eyes!!! Sister, my heart that has been cooling for twenty-seven years is boiling again!"
"There are so many handsome guys and beauties in No. 1 Middle School! The one in the back who is sleeping with his eyes closed has a divine profile!"
"They had so much fun fighting landlords... I was watching the live broadcast of the spring outing or the live broadcast of the game..."
"The female team members of the first team in the game are so amazing!"
"Which two schools are competing in the third round?"
"Their snacks all look delicious, I'm so greedy..."
"The potato chips they eat in the front are the same ones I bought. They are really delicious and the calories are not high."
"The girl that the camera just glanced at is wearing a blue uniform and has a round head. She looks really good. Which school is she from?"
"I strongly request that the camera zoom in closer to the auditorium and let us take a screenshot!"
"I asked all my best friends to come and watch! If you have something good, share it!"
"..."
The staff in charge of the online live broadcast saw that the netizens were focusing on the handsome guys and beauties in the auditorium at the back. They understood them well and turned the camera to the auditorium again, and also zoomed in on the lenses of several schools.
Netizens were extremely satisfied with the photographer's responsive attitude. They posted more frequently and the number of people increased severalfold.
This was something that the staff did not expect at the beginning. One day, the traffic in the live broadcast room would increase in this way, and they couldn't help but give a few more shots to the audience between games.
—————————————————————————————————————
Here, Gu Yigang came back from No. 3 Middle School next door, holding an armful of snacks.
"Brother Mian, the great achievements of No. 7 Middle School in the morning have almost spread among the schools." Gu Yi opened a pack of melon seeds and talked about the news he had found out. "Did you notice that the one from No. 13 Middle School?" The braided man and the other players behind him didn’t come to the competition field today.”
"It is said that they were all called away before leaving. I guess they may have to be substitutes for the next games. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the team has undergone a major overhaul, and I don't know what kind of results this year will have."
"They also said that No. 13 Middle School
The braided man also found team members from No. 3 Middle School, two private schools, and No. 14 Middle School last night. He originally planned to find team members from the remaining schools this morning, and then started to implement the everyone's plan in the afternoon... As a result, hey, before I even got up in the morning, I was defeated by the general of No. 7 Middle School. "Gu Yile said cheerfully, but he didn't know that the barrage in the live broadcast room was so interesting that he almost scratched the screen and leaned close to his ear to listen to what he was talking about.
"Have all the team members from those schools agreed to do things with him?" Tao You was curious, apart from those from No. 7 Middle School who superficially agreed and were secretly prepared to report, are there any other school players who would be willing to do things with him? .
The intention is not right...
Gu Yi threw down the other snacks, shook his head and said, "Then I don't know. I don't know who the braided man is looking for. At least no one has made it clear that he is with them."
"In such a long time, in addition to changing so many snacks, you also have this gossip, is it gone?" Hong Xiqi asked while eating the snacks Gu Yi exchanged, "It's not your strength."
Gu Yi raised his head unconvinced and said, "Of course, I'm not doing my job unduly. Brother Mian, I found out that in the doubles preliminary match between us and No. 14 Middle School in the afternoon, the opponent changed to a different person, and it was said that it was that person I had a bad stomach last night and was sent to the hospital in the middle of the night. I replaced him with a substitute, a freshman in high school named Shen Bin."
Song Yimian searched for the name in his mind and made sure it was not a big threat. "It's okay. We'll go as planned. We'll find out more details in the afternoon."
"Tao You, why did the coach keep you here last night? What did he say to you? Tell us." A team member moved a chair behind Tao You and Hong Xiqi. While asking, he didn't forget Hand them a bag of melon seeds.
"Does it have anything to do with what happened this morning?"
"The people from No. 13 Middle School also came to see you last night?"
Tao You grabbed a handful of melon seeds unceremoniously, "Let's take this, it's actually nothing..."
She didn't want to tell these people about the shameful thing of apologizing to each other because scolding someone too harshly was not conducive to a harmonious environment within the team.
fell shame.
"Hey, how are you sure that No. 13 Middle School came to see us yesterday?" she asked.
The man pointed behind him, "That's what the people from No. 7 Middle School said."
"They said that yesterday the member of the Thirteenth Middle School told them that he met you on the way back and asked you to cooperate directly, and you agreed. Then he went to the Seventh Middle School," he was successfully diverted, "The Seventh Middle School He said that they agreed because they heard that you all agreed."
