"Does Minister Yoshimura have any players you are particularly optimistic about in this competition?"

"Of course this exists. There are many dark horses among the first-year students in our football club. By the way, everyone is welcome to join the football club."

"Oh, you can't use the school radio to advertise, Yoshimura-san. Otherwise, you will be blacklisted by our broadcast department, and we won't release it until I graduate."

"Ahaha, I'm extremely sorry, Mr. Nan."

"Hehe, you are kidding. I heard that Horii-san will also participate in the competition this time? He is the dream lover of many school girls!

I remember that in last year’s national competition, Horii-san led Yuki High School to third place.”

"Yes, our minister will also participate this time!"

When the other party mentioned Horii Faze, Yoshimura Kazuo was very proud.

"A handsome senior who still has charm, and an energetic dark horse junior.

So it seems that today's football match must be extremely exciting.

Okay, the venue has been set up, let’s give the camera to the lovely contestants!”

Kazuo Yoshimura on the side wiped his forehead with a slight embarrassment. What kind of word is the charm still there? How can I say this?

"Hoho, the next person to appear is Tanita from Class A of the first year.

It can be seen that our student Tanita has a strong body shape, maybe he is a dark horse. Why don't you give us some off-site tips and let us shout out where the "0" square that represents the space is!"

"Top left!"

"..."

"Bottom right!"

"The middle!"

"..."

"Everyone is very enthusiastic, and I hope Tanita can live up to expectations and win first place."

"Okay, he kicked it, he kicked it! The football flew up quickly and headed towards the goal... Hey, why did it stop halfway through the flight? What do you think, Yoshimura-kun?"

"Perhaps I kicked it accidentally and lost a lot of strength?"

"That's it! But it doesn't matter, we have three chances, please look at the second goal!"

"..."

"The second goal is very improved, it's only one-third away from the goal! Come on, Tanita-san!"

"boom!"

As the third ball stopped midway again, the strong-looking Tanita left the field in despair, losing his three-year priority to choose a spouse.

"Well, this. It seems that shooting from 30 meters is a very difficult challenge in itself.

By the way, Yoshimura-san, can I take the liberty of asking how many meters your longest shot is?"

"Thirty...fifty meters?"

"As expected of the deputy director of the football department, he is so awesome!"

…

The competition is still going on in an orderly manner. As the senior sister who spoke very interestingly said, thirty meters itself is very challenging.

However, many people later kicked the ball into the goal, and one person even kicked over an empty square, causing the audience who laughed at half the time to cheer.

"The next person to appear is our football club director, Horii Faze. Yoshimura-san, why don't you lick it this time?"

"OK."

Yoshimura Kazuo took a deep breath after agreeing seriously, but soon coughed lightly.

"Let's see Minister Horii's first goal."

The football passed by the nine-square grid, and the whole audience let out a cry of pity.

"What a pity, it looks like they were all hit!"

"Second ball!"

"He hit it!!"

I saw the football hitting the upper left corner of the nine-square grid in a graceful arc, instantly knocking over two empty squares.

The whole place was in an uproar, and many girls screamed.

The director of the broadcasting department, Minami, was indeed right. Horii Kaze has many fans.

"Wow, it seems that Horii-san lives up to his reputation. He is very confident in the accuracy of football."

"What about the third ball?"

"Hit again!!" Yoshimura Kazuo pounded the table with a flushed face, very excited.

This time it was the upper right corner that was kicked over.

"Kicked over three empty squares in total?"

Minister Nan looked at the list.

"There are only six contestants who have not participated in the competition. It seems that the winner of this competition must be Horii-san?"

"Minister Nan is joking, the game is not over yet, how can you speak out about victory? This is not in line with the spirit of sportsmanship!"

"Oh, I've learned a lesson."

"The next contestant is Shiina Kiri from Class C of the second year?"

"Let's watch his first goal. Wait, this Shiina-san looks so handsome. Can I be a nymphomaniac first? Where's the photographer? Come on, take a close-up of him.

Ah, wrong photo! Who wants to see the football in his hand? I want to see Shiina-san’s face!”

Shiina Kiri. "..."

This senior seems a bit unreliable.

"Ahem, Principal Nan, the school leaders are still watching..."

"Huh? Let's get back to the topic for now. Let's take a look at Shiina-san's first goal. Oh, by the way, let me mention in advance, are you interested in joining the broadcast club, Shiina-san? You must have a nice voice!"

Yoshimura Kazuo. "..."

It’s not like we said we can’t use school radio to advertise.

Shiina Kiri glanced at the referee helplessly, but saw that he was also helpless. After meeting Shiina Kiri's gaze, she raised her left hand to him and whistled.

Seeing this, Shiina Kiri stepped on the football with her right foot and calmed down, filtering out the cheers outside the field and the unreliable host's voice on the school radio.

"boom!"

The football flew out quickly and hit the bottom square in a gorgeous diagonal parabola.

Then it suddenly bounced away, but the nine-square grid on the ladder did not move at all.

"Oh my God, Shiina-kun really hit the mark! Unfortunately, he kicked the bottom square filled with sand and gravel! He was just a little short of hitting the empty square..."

Before Minister Nan could finish marveling, the second ball was shot again, accurately hitting the same position.

This time the nine-square grid is no longer motionless, and the bottom middle square seems to have moved a short distance outward.

"?"

"Wait a minute, why are the two balls at the bottom? Is it a coincidence? Director Yoshimura, please tell me, if you are any slower, Shiina-san will kick it again!!"

Seemingly moved by her words, Shiina Kiri did not play football again, but looked towards the other side of the court in surprise.

"It's probably not a coincidence. I have followed this Shiina-san. He has used our football club's court to practice every day for the past month. He is very talented and hardworking."

"Really? It can hit the target accurately even thirty meters away?!"

"If that's the case, Shiina-san! Can you hear me? The empty square representing 0 is on the leftmost position of the second row. Please believe me! As long as you kick that square, you have a chance to knock over three empty squares.

Square! Tied for first place!”

Shiina Kiri glanced at the host desk knowingly, and saw a petite girl... To be precise, the senior sister was holding the microphone and giving a sincere and excited reminder.

He smiled and nodded.

Kicked towards the precise position of the previous two times, the nine squares exploded instantly.
Chapter completed!
