Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 188 Three Geniuses Who Studied in Hokkaido
Now, Seidou High School has already secured a place in the top four of this tournament!

Competing with it for the final championship are the Giant Troll Daitojuan, Teito High School and Yamamori Academy.

No matter which team they meet, it won't be easy.

Teito High School is a long-established strong team in East Tokyo. The team not only has a powerful ace pitcher, but also a first-year rising star named Mukai Taiyo. Its strength is undoubtedly very strong.

Moreover, the second-year catcher Qian Xiangang has become the team's main catcher.

The Giant Troll Daifujimaki is a dark horse team in this tournament, just like Seidou High School.

With Masamune Hongo as their support, their strength is no worse than that of Qingdao High School, which has the "monster" Akatsuki Fōtani.

The second is Yamamori Academy.

As a long-established strong team in the Yamanashi area, Yamamori Academy is naturally very strong.

They were once legitimate contenders for the Koshien championship, and with the bonus of twin ace pitchers and catchers, they also have a chance to win this year's Koshien.

All in all, no matter which team Qingdao High School meets, it will be enough for them.

But Qingdao High School is still not afraid.

They relied on their own strength to get to this place, so naturally the strength of their opponents was not much different from theirs.

As long as they tried their best, even though the last few battles were tough, it was worth it for them to win the final championship.

After returning to the hotel, Zhou Hui and Jiang Gu Xiao asked to be interviewed by the media.

General media should conduct interviews at the interview booth prepared by the Koshien Organizing Committee after or before the end of the game.

Few media come to the hotel where the players are staying.

Generally, there are only two types of media that do this.

The first type is like the "crazy fans".

Since I couldn’t interview my favorite players on site, I went to the hotel where they were staying to hear their real opinions.

The second type is those who have no moral bottom line.

After a day of interviews, they found that there was no explosive news. In order to get a lot of traffic for their own media, they followed the team to the hotel where they were staying.

Many people have no choice but to accept interviews due to some emotional factors.

They feel embarrassed to chase people away when they come all the way to interview you.

Therefore, it has become an unspoken rule that players must accept any media interviews they receive at the hotel where they are staying.

Of course, players have the right to refuse.

If the players refuse and the media still refuse to leave, the hotel security has the right to kick them out.

"Looking for the two of us?"

Zhou Hui pointed at himself.

Come on, the two of them just finished an interview this morning, why are there others here now?
Haruichi, who was in charge of delivering the message, nodded.

"Yes, I heard that they seem to be reporters from Hokkaido."

Mayor Chun looks like an honest man, so the media will naturally let him pass on the message.

If a tough guy like Isajiki Jun dared to deliver a message, even the beasts would respect them.

You know, Isajiki Jun is tired of being ordered around.

And a "good guy" like Haruichi naturally became the target they were looking for.

The most important thing is that they had hardly seen this player before this game.

So the reporter was certain that he was an honest man from Qingdao High School.

Generally, those with bad tempers are either starters or normal rotation players. How could someone like him, who is at the end of the bench, dare to have such a bad temper?

"Go and have a look?"

Zhou Hui had an idea.

Although Zhou Hui is a Chinese, he has lived in Hokkaido for some years and still has some feelings for Hokkaido.

But he never forgot that he was Chinese.

China and the island country are concepts that he must not confuse.

"Since you are a reporter from Hokkaido, I think I can go."

As he spoke, Akihiro Jōgō walked in one direction like an "arrow".

"Furiya-san, you're going the wrong way."

Haruichi reminded.

Kougu Xiao's face turned red and she walked back.

Zhou Hui was helpless when he saw his stupid teammate. He would be satisfied when his physical talent could be used more for his brain.

Led by Haruichi, the two came together to the Hokkaido media.

"I'm coming."

"Zhou Hui and Jyougu are here."

"Hurry up and get the camera ready."

"Ishikawa, come here quickly, and get ready for the interview."

"I see."

The media in Hokkaido began to get busy, and everyone was scrambling to find their own position.

"Is it really that serious?"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Hui realized for the first time how great his influence was.

"I really envy them both."

Looking at Jōgō Aki and Zhou Hui standing there straight and ready to be interviewed, Chun Shi also secretly vowed to work hard.

Sooner or later, there will be a place for him.

"Please wait a moment, we still have one person who hasn't arrived yet."

The reporter named Ishikawa suddenly said.

It seems that they have invited three people this time, and they can only start the interview when everyone is together.

"I was also born and raised in Hokkaido. It's not easy for Hokkaido to produce two geniuses like you."

"Excuse me, Mr. Ishikawa. Please be more serious. I am Chinese."

Zhou Hui still stood firm on his position.

Ishikawa was a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

"Yes, yes, then let me put it another way. You two, soon there will be three geniuses studying in Hokkaido."

Ishikawa's language organization skills are obviously not up to standard, and he looks like a trainee reporter.

This media outlet is really brave to have called an intern reporter to interview some of the most talented players in this year's Koshien.

It looks like he's not afraid of being accused of disrespecting others.

They played the "hometown card" really well.

We are all fellow villagers, it would be unreasonable not to accept the interview.

This is also why Haruichi mentioned the word Hokkaido just now. It seems that they deliberately arranged it.

"You old man, please stop following me. I'm going to be interviewed. What does it have to do with you?!"

A blaming voice came, and it sounded like another unruly young man.

"What do you know? Interviews are very complicated. You are only in the first grade. How can I not follow you?"

An old voice was also heard, and the latter should be an elderly person.

"Who is this voice?"

Zhou Hui looked towards the direction of the sound.

It turned out to be Mr. Hongo and Mr. Nitta!
It seems that this is the last of the three geniuses mentioned by Ishikawa who studied in Hokkaido.

The authentic Hongo!

"Director Nitta."

Zhou Hui called out, then quickly went up to greet him.

"Oh my, it's Zhou Hui. I guessed that you were one of the three geniuses he mentioned. You are definitely a strong contender for the best player in this Koshien."

"What nonsense are you talking about? That award was made for me."

"Zhou Hui, this kid is a little crazy, don't listen to him."

"You old man, why are your elbows bent outward?"

Seeing this scene, Ishikawa swallowed.

If he had known that Hong Xiang was such a troublesome player, he would not have shouted to come over.

This interview is also a big task!
