"Huh~ That's a big help, Yuxi."
Hayato, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, gratefully raised his palm to thank Uki.
Uki also made an OK gesture to Hayato.
"You're welcome, just remember to treat me. So Hayato, what are you doing here?"
It's no wonder that Uki is curious. Unlike the shopping streets that Hayato usually goes to, Sendai City's commercial streets are places where people who know how to shop go. Hayato is not on a date with Kisuko-senpai today, and he is dressed like this.
“Someone from Volleyball Monthly found me and said they wanted to interview me.”
"Oh oh oh! Can I follow?"
"Hey, yes, yes, why."
"I'm very interested in the journalist profession!"
"Ah~ That should be no problem."
"Without further ado, let's go!"
"Don't worry, it's not over there, it's over here."
Stopping the elated Uki, Hayato took her to the agreed coffee shop.
"welcome."
The waitress saw Hayato before he entered the store and approached him enthusiastically.
"It seems that the other party hasn't come yet."
Under the guidance of the waiter, the two of them found a seat near the window and sat down. Hayato looked around and could not find the reporter who had made an appointment to interview, because the other party had sent him an ID photo, and it was a reporter who looked a little fat. There were middle-aged men in the shop, but now the store was full of young people, so Hayato concluded that the other party hadn't arrived yet.
"A strawberry chocolate sundae, please. Do I have to change seats when the reporters come over?"
Yuxi, who placed her order first, scratched her cheek despite the envy and jealousy of the waitress. Although she had thought that Hayato's outfit today would make girls excited, she didn't expect it to be so lethal, but she accepted it. Thanks, I can't back down from the strawberry chocolate sundae.
After puffing up his chest, Yu Xi ignored the looks of the girls.
"Cafe au lait, thank you. You shouldn't have to. The other party probably won't care about it. And since you are interested in reporters, it would be more convenient for you to stay here."
Smiling and ordering to the waiter, Hayato also knew that Yu Xi's current situation was all caused by himself. He felt a headache now. He would have known better not to dress up and go out.
"By the way, Yuxi, are you planning to target reporters?"
Hayato, who no longer thought about the trouble, changed the subject.
"Yes, I plan to apply for jobs directly after graduation."
He gestured with his fair and tender left hand with manicure, and Yu Xi looked full of fighting spirit.
Her slender fingers and pink manicure make her hands very attractive.
He noticed Yuxi's manicure and looked at her outfit today. Hayato guessed that this girl probably went out to get manicures with her friends and bumped into him on the way back.
On the left side is a half-piece of cherry blossom-shaped hairpin, a light red plaid coat on the outside, a pure white vertical striped turtleneck sweater on the inside, a gray knee-length pleated skirt on the lower body, a pair of brown velvet pantyhose on the legs, and shoes It's khaki Martin boots.
At this time, Uxi was taking off her plaid coat and placing it on the back of the chair next to her. When she noticed Hayato's gaze, she was not shy, but asked with a smile.
"How about it? It looks good. I specially matched it for going out today."
"Did you go out with your friends to get a manicure?"
"Well, I just happened to be taking the train back when I saw a certain handsome guy in trouble."
The boy and the girl, who are both smart people, could easily detect each other's intentions. The conversation between the two of them was not convoluted. They were all topics that could be put on the surface. Of course, they had to chat openly.
If you think about it carefully, none of the girls Hayato has known since he came back are ordinary. It can be said that they are plums, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums, each with its own merits.
The most beautiful thing about Jiezi is her waistline. Although she has quit the track and field club, Jiezi has not stopped doing daily exercises. Although her abdominal muscles are about to disappear, she still has the mermaid line and round belly button that she should have. Jiezi's naturally white skin and her athletic beauty are really eye-catching.
As for why Hayato knew that he didn't go to Hawaii in vain, he didn't forget Jiezi's swimsuit at that time.
Let’s talk about the three girls on the cheerleading team. The most outstanding thing about Xiaoyu is her baby-fat face, pink cherry mouth, and smart eyes, which make her look lively and cute. Yuxi's fingers are long and slender, with distinct but not protruding joints. When he raises his fingers, they look like a straight line. The last one, Hayato Arima, didn't remember much about her. The only thing he remembered was her swan-like neck.
As for the tsundere Kirizaki Nagi, she perfectly possesses the unique attributes of a blonde tsundere girl. Her long legs and fleshy high socks make her special against certain people.
"Then I really appreciate Master Yuxi's help."
Hayato was thinking about all kinds of things in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and thanked Uki.
"Hmm, there's no need to thank you too much. After all, I've already received the thank you gift."
Just as he said this, the waiter brought the strawberry chocolate sundae that Yu Xi ordered. After thanking him, Yu Xi clasped his hands together and said eagerly, "I'm done" and picked up a spoon to eat.
Hayato picked up the coffee au lait that was served at the same time, took a sip, and smiled with satisfaction. The coffee with a lot of milk has a very mellow taste. As soon as I put down the cup, I saw the door opened, and a slightly fat middle-aged man wearing a blue jacket walked in. As soon as he entered, he looked around, as if he was looking for Someone, when his eyes moved to Hayato, he showed an expression that seemed to be recognized but uncertain.
Hayato, who also recognized him, smiled and waved at him.
"Ishikawa-san, here."
Seeing Hayato calling out his name, a reporter named Ishikawa walked over quickly. When he walked over, Hayato stood up in advance. Uki, who was still eating his sundae, also heard what Hayato just said. He quickly took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth.
"Ah, Kuroba-san, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long. I didn't expect that Kuroba-san is even more handsome today than during the trial. I didn't even dare to confirm it when I just came in."
Ishikawa, who was still polite, took Hayato's extended hand and shook it up and down a few times.
"No, there are still 10 minutes before the appointed time. We are early. Ah, Ishikawa-san. This is Uki Saruwatari, my classmate. I met him when I came here today. I heard that there was a reporter from Volleyball Monthly doing an interview. I, she, am very interested in the journalist profession, so please ask me to bring her to see it, won’t it be troublesome?”
Ishikawa, who was originally curious about the girl sitting opposite Hayato, heard these words, and the smile on his face increased.
"Hey, what's the trouble? It's better to say that there are new people interested in our field. As a senior, it's too late for me to be happy. Hello Saruwatari-san, I am Ishikawa Masato from Volleyball Monthly. If you are interested in reporters, you can consider us Magazine."
As he spoke, Ishikawa took out two business cards from his business card case and handed them to the two of them. Hayato accepted them politely, and Uki was even more happy. He quickly bowed and said that he had caused trouble to Ishikawa-san.
After getting to know each other, Uki moved her seat and sat by the window. Hayato sat next to her, while Ishikawa sat in Hayato's original seat and ordered a cup of black coffee for himself.
"Then let's officially start?"
Taking his notebook out of his jacket pocket and placing the recorder on the table, Ishikawa began his interview today. Hayato extended his hand in a very polite gesture of invitation.
"According to the information written in the information books of various high schools in Miyagi Prefecture, Kuroba-san has one year of volleyball experience in junior high school. After transferring to Karasuno from high school, he joined the volleyball club and successfully passed the trials. What do you think?"
The question asked by this seemingly friendly reporter was very spicy. He only had one year of volleyball experience, but he was able to break through the trials. It would not be too much to say that Hayato is a genius, but the more so, the more Hayato's answer reflects his character.
"Yes, everyone in the volleyball club is very friendly and very good. If I only relied on myself, I wouldn't be able to achieve the good results I have now. Shiratorizawa, led by Ushijima-senpai, is also very strong. To be honest, if If we do it again, whether Karasuno can win against Shiratorizawa is questionable."
Downplaying his own performance, Hayato attributed his win to everyone in the volleyball club and did not hesitate to praise Shiratorizawa. It is impossible for Hayato to do such an unreasonable behavior of underestimating his opponent.
Hearing Hayato's answer, Ishikawa was not very satisfied.
"We received news that Kuroba-san and Kageyama-san from the same team were invited to the youth team for training a few days ago, right?"
"Well, I'm honored to be selected. I also benefited a lot from the youth team. After seeing the strong players from all over the country, I feel that I still have a long way to go."
"Kuroba-san is so humble. What is Kuroba-san's goal for the national competition next month?"
"I believe that the ultimate goal of every team that is shortlisted for the national competition is to be the final champion. We Karasuno have the same idea."
The smiling Hayato was no longer modest this time, but stated his goal directly. This answer made Ishikawa, a reporter, very satisfied. Young people, what do you call young people if they are not arrogant? Of course, the more important reason is During the live broadcast, Hayato's appearance and skills attracted many fans. With only one year of volleyball experience, he defeated Shiratorizawa, led by the national team's main selection Wakali Ushijima. If today's interview does not show his domineering power as a genius boy, their magazine sales will also be affected.
"Haha, that's a very confident answer. The next questions are personal ones. I'm sure Kuroba-san won't refuse, right?"
Having already received the most critical answer, Ishikawa's tense shoulders relaxed, so he turned to asking some more relaxed questions.
"As long as it's not too personal."
"Of course, then what is Kuroba-san's favorite food?"
——
Ishikawa just asked questions one after another, and Hayato answered him calmly. After a while, Ishikawa had asked all the questions he had prepared, so he took the initiative to turn off the recorder.
"Well, that's the end of the interview. Thank you for accepting the interview today, Kuroba-san."
"It's nothing. I'm honored to be interviewed by Volleyball Monthly."
Ishikawa stood up and offered to pay. Hayato was polite and agreed after seeing that the other party insisted on asking. Then he watched Ishikawa walk to the cashier with the bill, and waved to the two of them before leaving the cafe.
When Ishikawa walked out of the door, Yuxi, who was listening to everything on the sidelines, relaxed, and she stuck out her pink tongue in fear.
"Wow, Ishikawa-san's questions at the beginning were so aggressive."
"Haha, I can tell Yu Xi that you are also very smart."
"Stop talking, this is not what I imagined as a reporter."
"Well, I can't blame him. If you don't ask, not many people are willing to read it. Believe it or not, the title of next month's volleyball monthly magazine introducing me must be Hayato Kuroba, aiming for the spring high school championship."
"You know you still want to say that."
Hayato, who was still smiling just now, stopped smiling. Uki had seen that expression before. It was the expression that often appeared on Hayato's face when he competed with Shiratorizawa.
"That's because that's what I really think. Karasuno will definitely win the Spring High Championship."
The tone was slightly lower than usual, coupled with Hayato's slightly furrowed eyebrows, the confidence that he would win this battle deeply infected Yuxi, and she just stared at Hayato blankly.
"The sundae is almost gone."
Seeing that the half of the sundae that had been put aside due to the interview was melting, a smile appeared on Hayato's face again, reminding Uki.
"My sundae!"
After Yuxi came back to his senses, he quickly brought the sundae in front of him, and at the same time kept muttering, "You can still eat it before it's completely melted."
While eating, she used the remaining coldness of the sundae to cool down her reddish cheeks. To be honest, the confident Hayato just now really made her heart move. Fortunately, Yu Xi knew it in her heart, and this thought just turned around. She took care of it herself.
Hayato didn't notice anything strange about Uki. He finished his coffee au lait and turned to look at Uki who was competing with the sundae.
"Go together?"
"Yeah, I'll finish it soon."
"It's okay, don't be in a hurry."
After waiting for a while and Yuxi finished eating the sundae, Hayato and Yuxi left the cafe and gradually walked away under the watch of the waitress in the store.
"Speaking of which, Ishikawa-san bought today's sundae. Are you hungry? Can I treat you to a meal?"
Slowing down to adapt to the rhythm of Uki's walking, Hayato took out his phone and looked at the time. It was just noon, which happened to be lunch time. Uki, who was walking side by side with Hayato, waved his hand when he heard this.
"Forget it, look around. The girls' eyes hurt me so much. I'd better go home and eat."
Scanning his eyes left and right, Hayato found that the girls' eyes were not only on him, but also on Yuxi. Although Yuxi was also dressed very beautifully today, the girls' determination to win would not disappear just because of this. , they also have the confidence not to lose to Yu Xi.
"Indeed, then just go back."
"So much the better."
The two people who walked to the station swiped their cards to cross the station and came to the platform to wait for the next tram. Because it was a weekend, there were a lot of people riding the train. With the flow of people, the two people who entered the train finally managed to stand firm at the door with Hayato's height and strength. They had a good position, but without the handrails, Yuki couldn't stand firm, so she had to He supported Hayato's arm holding the railing next to the seat.
"Oh~ As expected of a sports club member, the muscles are very obvious."
"Thank you for the compliment. Okay, the car is about to start, please stand carefully."
Facing Uxi's teasing, Hayato didn't pay attention but reminded her. This reminder was also very timely. Uxi heard the sound of the tram starting as soon as she tightened her grip.
