Heizi's Basketball: I'm not the boss?

Chapter 179 President Li Guo’s visit
Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka!
A blinding burst of camera flashes.

Wearing a suit, Takeuchi still seemed calm and collected when being interviewed and photographed by multiple reporters. He was used to this kind of thing.

There were two players sitting next to him. This time Xiangyang was not there, but Kise and Yuuki were sitting there.

Kise, who is also familiar with the interview process, has no stage fright when facing the camera. He smiles generously and is thoughtful enough to wave and be funny at the camera.

As for Yuuki, it was not so easy. This shy little guy sat there with a face cramped, his hands still subconsciously pinching the corners of his clothes. Facing the reporters' questions, he could only ask for help in most cases. He looked at Kise, but fortunately, the latter didn't mind.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. My lovely junior has just arrived and is not very sensible. If you have any questions about the team, just ask me. I know everything!"

Kise reached out and rubbed Yuuki's head, and took the initiative to take the microphone handed by the reporter, looking eager to try it out.

Naturally, reporters would not be ignorant and catch Yuuki asking questions. Compared with him, the well-spoken Kise was obviously a better interview subject.

"Mr. Kise, how do you feel now that you have won the national championship again? If it's convenient, I would also like to ask you what is the secret of your success!"

The person who asked the question was a female reporter who looked to be in her 20s, very young.

Kise took a moment to look at the female reporter. After noticing that she was pretty, Kise showed a perfect smile on his face and replied: "The feeling after winning the competition is the best. Well, to be honest, I am now I'm in a good mood, and... I really want to find something else to celebrate, and of course it's something other than basketball."

After saying this, Kise looked at the female reporter for a while, and when he noticed that the latter's cheeks were slightly red, his smile became even wider.

"As for the secret of success...obviously, we have the best captain in the world, and we are also the best team in the world. In this team, each of us is the best player!"

As Kise spoke, he glanced at Takeuchi not far away. This champion coach who has won three championship titles is currently under the spotlight, constantly swaying to exude his charm.

"Well...we also have the best coach in the world, probably..."

Huang Lai touched his nose, and his eyes were still a little erratic when he spoke the second half of the sentence. Fortunately, the reporters didn't notice, but asked the next question.

"Mr. Xiangyang won't you come for the interview today? In the past, Mr. Takeuchi would bring him here, right?"

Huang Lai thought for a while, then replied: "Then who knows, maybe he doesn't want to talk too much today? But even if he doesn't come for the interview, that kid won't be alone..."

"He might be spending time with his girlfriend or something!"

……

……

"Ah!"

In the bathroom, Xiang Yang looked at the door with suspicious eyes, rubbed his nose and wondered if someone was talking about him.

In front of the sink, Akashi carefully wiped the stains on his hands. Although the indoor facilities of the Tokyo Basketball Stadium were of a high level and there was not much dust even on the playing field, after a whole game, his hands were, or More or less stained with a little bit of black.

"You have a cold?"

Akashi asked casually with a calm tone.

Xiang Yang shook his head, feeling a little weird: "I keep sneezing recently, but I shouldn't have a cold?"

Akashi didn't respond, but turned on the faucet again, washing his little hands.

"Congratulations to you, you won another championship with Hai Chang."

Xiang Yang was taken aback for a moment, walked slowly behind Akashi, and asked with a sly face: "Hey, hey, this kind of blessing comes from your mouth, it sounds so sour~ Mr. Akashi?"

Realizing that Xiangyang was standing behind him, Akashi rolled his eyes in the mirror, and said angrily: "I really wish you the best, don't forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."

"Why don't you want it?"

Xiang Yang yawned, and continued: "But to be honest, playing against you is really tiring. After this round, I feel that I have exhausted my energy for the two games, and I am so sleepy."

"Hey, Akashi, do you remember what questions I asked you last time you were in this place?"

Akashi washed his hands for a moment and replied calmly: "Ask me, who is Neon's number one point guard."

"Oh, you have a good memory."

Xiang Yang's mouth opened slightly in surprise, but he soon returned to his seriousness and said: "At that moment, you guy was able to say his name without blushing or heartbeat. It really surprised me. Sure enough, even the heirs of the chaebol are not normal person…"

"However, Akashi, I recognize your strength."

There was a trace of dissatisfaction on Xiang Yang's face, but more of it was admiration.

In today's game, Akashi had dual personalities on his body at the same time and used them alternately. In terms of personal performance, whether Xiang Yang wanted to admit it or not, he was indeed suppressed by Akashi.

However, in Xiangyang's opinion, his speech seemed a bit ironic to Akashi's ears.

"I was defeated by you twice in a row, and one year I even lost to Cheng Lin. Do I deserve the title of Neon's No. [-]?"

Akashi looked up at himself in the mirror. Due to sweating from exercise, his hair was a little messy at the moment, and there was a hint of ridicule in his calm and confident eyes.

However, before he could continue to speak, Xiang Yang suddenly hit him on the back of the head with a knife.

"Ow!"

Akashi covered his head in pain, and then turned back to look at Xiangyang with a shocked expression.As the heir to the Akashi family consortium, he has never been treated like this since he was a child.

Including the elders in the family, Akashi had only a handful of physical contacts with others, let alone being beaten!
"you you!"

"What are you! I'm not talking about you, Akashi, your character is really unpleasant."

Xiang Yang smacked his lips, raised Akashi's finger and pressed it down, and said in an ironic tone: "Brother, when I competed with you for the first point guard, you were unwilling to do anything, but now it's better, I agree with you. You are number one in neon, so you are going to do the opposite with me, right?”

"Really, I'm going to plant flowers soon. If you are not the first point guard of Neon after I leave, I will be very unhappy."

After hearing this, Akashi's shocked face just now calmed down again. He looked at Xiangyang and asked, "When are you going to the Flower Planter?"

"Probably next week, as soon as I'm an adult."

Due to policy arrangements, only adults have the right to change their nationality. Although Xiangyang has reserved a spot in the National Youth Team of the Flower Planter, he is still unable to officially join. This results in his main mission still not being completed.

"Be mentally prepared, Akaashi. This time when I come back from the flower garden, I will be stronger."

Xiang Yang grinned, his eyes showing confidence.

The main mission is about to be completed after a year... If he doesn't give him something real, he will uninstall this silly system!

Uninstalling it was just a boast at the time, but if the reward doesn't make him happy, he will become extremely angry... and continue to stay angry!
"I'm waiting, Luoshan will become stronger in winter!"

Akashi's answer was very solemn. He was serious. Three games, two runner-ups and one semi-final. For a normal team, this result is not easy, but for Akashi, it is far from enough!
Xiang Yang wanted to say something more, but at this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He picked up the mobile phone and saw that it was Masako.

"Moses Moses, Miss Masako?"

"Are you still in the bathroom?"

"Yes, what happened?"

Xiang Yang frowned slightly, and he heard something strange from Masako's tone.

[It seems...a little different from Miss Masako in the past? 】

"Where are you now, Miss Masako? Are you still where you were watching the game just now?"

"No, I'm at the bathroom door now, and... there's someone who wants to see you."

[Toilet door?Want to see me? 】

Xiang Yang was stunned for a moment and said into the phone, "Wait a moment, I'll come out now."

Akashi remained silent until Xiang Yang hung up the phone, and he asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay. Someone just told me that someone wants to see me?"

Xiang Yang scratched his head, opened the bathroom door and walked out, Akashi followed behind him.

As soon as he went out, Xiang Yang looked around, and sure enough, he saw Araki Masako not far away. She was talking with a middle-aged man.

Xiang Yang remained calm and walked straight to Masako, sizing up the middle-aged man.

The clothes don't look outstanding, just a regular Japanese suit. With Xiangyang's eyes, he can't read the label and read the price.

However, the aura of this man is not simple. Although he is over fifty years old, his eyes are very powerful, and the aura of his gestures also symbolizes that he is probably in a high position.

"Miss Masako."

Xiang Yang withdrew his gaze, smiled slightly and greeted Masako.

"You are here. Let me introduce you. This is President Li Guo."

Masako turned his head, glanced at Xiang Yang, and then at Akashi who was following behind him. He was not surprised and just said to the Liguo president: "This is Xiang Yang."

Li Guo let out a few hearty laughter, and took the lead in stretching out his right hand towards Xiang Yang: "You are Xiang Yang, right? I also watched today's game, and you played pretty well!"

"Hey? Akashi is here too. Although he lost the game, Luoshan's performance today was also very impressive. I give you two thumbs up!"

After Li Guo saw Akashi, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly adjusted and returned to his amiable look.

Although he didn't know the other party's identity and purpose, he reached out to avoid hitting the smiling man. Xiang Yang also extended his right hand and shook hands with the Liguo president. At the same time, he looked at Akashi with a questioning look in his eyes.

Xiangyang: You two know each other?
Akashi: That’s right

Unfortunately, Akashi is not Kise after all. The telepathy between the two is quite limited and cannot transmit more information. Xiang Yang has no choice but to turn his attention to Masako.

Masako also understood what Xiangyang meant. She pursed her lips and said, "President Li Guo is the current president of the Basketball Association. I am here to invite you to join the National Youth Team."
