BXBX NOVEL Chapter 161 Eavesdropping
Chapter 161 Eavesdropping
Equipped with modern restroom accessories and decorated with marbles, the restroom infront of him was glowing while reflecting the light coming from the LED light bulbs.
Orderly organised and neatly cleaned, Aomori\'s restroom looked a lot better than any other restroom he had seen thus far.
However he had only one business that time around and that was to relieve himself. Thus without wasting anytime, he hurriedly rushed towards one of the compartment to relieve himself.
"Their first choice goalkeeper is injured and if we just stop their number 10, I think we can win today\'s match without much difficulty."
While Hiro was relieving himself, he heard some people talking about the match which was going to take place in a moment.
"Even with their first choice keeper we\'ll still win the match. Afterall we have senior Takumi in our team. With his speed, I doubt if any player of Kawasaki could even reach him."
"Hahaha.... I pity that number 10. With senior Takuto and senior Tora tailing him like his shadow, he\'ll have no space to display his performance in today\'s match."
"Hahaha yeah. I wonder what kind of expression that poor boy will make at today\'s match after getting squeezed between two giants of our club."
Gossiping freely, they were openly revealing their tactics without thinking of the consequences.
\'Look at these fools revealing their tactics without even thinking that someone might hear them. Confident is good but not overconfident, you fools.\' Thought Hiro while listening to their conversation.
Listening to the voice coming from outside, Hiro could tell that there were two of them.
He wasn\'t intending to pry their conversation. Afterall he was only there to relieve his flooded bladder.
But since those two fools outside were talking loudly while Hiro was relieving his bladder, he had no choice but to hear their conversation.
\'Now what should I do? I\'ve finished my business and those two fools are still out there. If I go out right now and they find me then they may accuse me of eavesdropping.\' Thought Hiro while staring at the doorknob.
\'Let\'s stay here until they leave.\' Hiro decided to stay put until their departure.
Those two fools out there took quite a while to leave the restroom. And while they were on their business, they almost revealed their entire tactics.
And even after their departure, Hiro stayed still at his position for a while, waiting to see if they were going to return back.
However those two never came back. And only after confirming that they had really left, Hiro walked out of his compartment.
Cautiously looking at the door, he double checked their presence.
"You fools. You shouldn\'t go around telling your tactics." Coming out of the restroom, Hiro scoffed while looking at the hallway infront of him.

Just as he was about to enter the locker room, coach Kensuke blocked his was and started questioning him, "What took you so long?"
Thinking of an excuse, Hiro answered confidently, "I had an upset stomach sir."
Upon hearing his answer, coach Kensuke made an worried face and hurriedly asked him, "Why didn\'t you tell me about that earlier? I would have gotten you some medicine. Should we substitute you?"
Letting out a subtle smile, Hiro looked coach Kensuke in the eyes and tried to assure him, "Don\'t worry sir. It\'s nothing serious. I just haven\'t taken a dump in the morning today."
Coach Kensuke then heaved a short sigh of relief and answered, "Thank god. But don\'t hesitate to inform us if you ever feel discomfort in your body, okay?"
Faking a pretentious smile on his face, Hiro nodded his head while trying to look all innocent. Hiro then answered in his pretentious sweet tone, "I will sir."
And while the two of them were talking, manager Makoto arrived at the locker room.
"Hiro why are you standing outside?" Questioned manager Makoto after approaching Hiro.
Engrossed in trying to deceive coach Kensuke into believing his made up story, Hiro didn\'t notice the presence of manager Makoto until he heard his voice.
Thus upon hearing the voice of manager Makoto suddenly coming from behind him, Hiro got startled a bit.
"Ahh sir! I was just coming from the rest restroom." Startling answered Hiro.
"He\'s right. He was just coming back from restroom." Coach Kensuke who was standing beside him, vouched for him.
"Is that so?" Murmuring such, manager Makoto shrugged and gestured him to get back to his position.
Hiro then hurriedly walked inside the locker room.
Noticing Hiro entering the locker room after disappearing for quite a while, Tatsuki jokingly questioned him, "Did you upset your stomach because of the pressure-"
However he paused midway before he could finish his sentence after noticing the sight of manager Makoto entering the locker room.
Just as manager Makoto entered the locker room, he ordered everybody to gather around for one last strategic meeting before the start of the game, "Everybody gather around."
Hearing his command, everybody present in the locker room stood up and began to gather around manager Makoto.
And as everybody gathered around, manager Makoto started to talk, "We\'ve already talked about our strategy this morning. But for one last time I\'ll repeat our strategy again."
Saying such manager Makoto began to revise their strategy.
"It\'ll take Tomoyasu some months to recover. Fortunately he hasn\'t broken any bone and the injury isn\'t very severe."
"So as I mentioned before Shun will be goalkeeping until his arrival. Also as everyone already knows that our opponents likes to play fast counterattacking game, so always be on alert."
While speaking such, manager Makoto suddenly turned towards the forwards, "However forwards don\'t let those thoughts disrupt your attacks. Just trust your teammates and attack freely like you\'ve always done."
"They\'re a tricky opponent but not unbeatable. Infact with our strategy and individual players, I believe that we can easily win the game with a score of 5:0, 6:0 or even more. In terms of individual talent you surpass them. However collectively they play a better football. So we shouldn\'t get arrogant and take them lightly."
"Remember teamwork makes dream work. So what you all need to do is trust yourself, trust your teammates and play like you\'ve always played without any worries."
After revising the strategy, manager Makoto gave them few words of encouragement.
"Take the ball, pass the ball, position yourself in a suitable spot to receive the ball and whenever you see an opening don\'t hesitate to shoot the ball." Saying such, manager Makoto stretched his hand infront.
After that all the players followed the example of manager Makoto and began to place their hands atop manager Makoto\'s hand.
Looking each other in the eye, they then raised their hand above their head while shouting, "Go Kawasaki"
