Chapter 583: The Game That Ended in Failure, Arrangements Before Departure
In fact, Qin Onokieha really wanted to get this money back.
After all, the accumulated amount is quite considerable and is by no means a small sum.
He thought to himself that if Brand had not been willing to come forward to cover the problem, given his personality, he might have ignored the matter of the Phoenix at Equality Hospital.
At worst, we can announce to the public that the other party broke into the training camp without permission and was accidentally injured by a tennis ball.
In this way, even if compensation is required, the amount will not be too much and will be within his affordable range.
However, Qin Onokiya also had his own plans in mind.
If I could use this money to acquire a strong player with unlimited potential, and if someone was willing to generously pay for it, that would be a great deal.
When he thought of this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, a shrewd look flashed in his eyes, and the abacus beads clattered in his mind as he calculated the account clearly.
After hearing Brand's words, the Phoenix of Byodoin's originally resolute gaze instantly became as deep as the abyss.
He slowly turned his head and looked at Beichuan and Alexander Amadeus with sharp eyes.
At that moment, an indescribable feeling of powerlessness instantly submerged his whole body like a surging tide.
He knew in his heart that there was a huge gap in strength between him and the two men, and he could not win in a fight. Now he was also deeply mired in huge debts. He was crying out to heaven and earth but no one answered him. He truly experienced the despair of wanting to die but not being able to, and wanting to live but not being able to. It was as if the giant hand of fate had tightly grasped his throat and he could not move.
Finally, Byodoin Phoenix bit her lower lip and squeezed out a word from between her teeth: "Okay!"
Then he straightened his back, a hint of stubbornness in his eyes, and added.
"But I have to be frank first."
"If you can't get me back to the Neon U-17 training camp on time before the U-17 World Cup starts, it will be considered a breach of contract!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly, the sound seemed to come from deep in his chest, full of unwillingness and resentment.
Then, he suddenly grabbed the racket on the ground with a somewhat rough movement and strode directly towards the direction of his current temporary residence.
At this moment, he knew clearly in his mind that if he went to challenge Beichuan again in the current predicament, it would be pure madness and he would be asking for trouble.
Although I have a strong physique and won't be beaten to death, the terrible debt will probably snowball and double.
When he thought of this, he felt scared. These two guys were more treacherous than the other. Who knows what kind of trap they would set for him next time. He couldn't jump into it foolishly again.
"Byōdōin boy."
Just when the Phoenix of Byodoin Temple had not walked far, Brand's voice, which was slightly smiling but also seemed to contain a hidden meaning, came from behind.
"Remember to wake up early at 5 a.m. tomorrow morning. Everyone needs to prepare to go to Australia for training. If you're late, you'll be charged."
When this voice reached the ears of the Phoenix of Byodoin, his originally steady steps suddenly became disordered, and he almost stumbled and dodged himself.
His body stiffened slightly.
Then, the pace of leaving obviously quickened a bit, and it looked as if there was a ferocious beast with bared fangs and claws chasing after him.
At this moment, if the eyes could turn into a sharp blade with the ability to kill, then Brand would have been cut into pieces, with no trace of skin left, and died on the spot.
Byodoin Phoenix cursed inwardly and quickened his pace, wishing he could get away from this troublesome place immediately.
Then, when the figure of the Byodoin Phoenix completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Brand slowly turned his gaze to the players in the training camp.
The players in the training camp were well aware of Brand's style of doing things and knew that the founder of the HERO Tennis Club was very capable and as cunning as an old fox.
They had just witnessed with their own eyes that Brand had tricked a professional-level player into becoming "lame". These small characters were like ants in front of him and could not withstand a single blow.
Seeing Brand's gaze sweeping over, the players suddenly became like frightened birds, their faces turning pale with fear.
One of the smaller players, his legs trembling slightly, muttered quietly, "Oh my god, run!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone left the place in a panic like scattered birds and beasts, fearing that they would be spotted by Brand and get into trouble.
In the blink of an eye, only Brand, Beichuan and others were left in the originally bustling venue.
After all these people had left, Brand showed a mysterious smile on his face and called softly, "Abei."
"Let's go to the stadium over there now. Old man Mifune and I will discuss the arrangements for the Australian trip in detail."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked leisurely towards the court. His expression was so proud, as if he had just accomplished something big that he could brag about for a long time.
Beichuan looked at Brand's back, shook his head helplessly, and followed him.
Soon, Kitagawa and others arrived at Court No. 1.
It was afternoon, and the sunlight shone through the thin clouds onto the court, emitting a faint golden glow.
All the members of the Swiss U-17 team were also present. They were standing or sitting, gathered in groups of three or four, but the Byodoin Phoenix was nowhere to be seen.
Everyone's faces were a little tired, but their eyes still showed their anticipation for training and competition.
"Cough cough..."
Brand cleared his throat, with a smile as gentle as the warm sun on his face, and spoke softly to everyone.
"We didn't celebrate the U-17 World Cup match against the British U-17 team in a big way, but I hope you can be understanding."
"After all, time waits for no one. We simply don't have any extra time to relax and rest now."
"Everyone, look around here. Teams from other countries are training intensively. We can't fall behind."
As he spoke, he opened his arms and gestured to the surrounding environment.
However, everyone present was not a complete novice, and they all knew that Brand, the old fox, could not change his temperament easily.
On the surface, he looks pleasant, but who knows what he is actually planning.
Everyone just looked at Brand quietly, without saying a word. Some players crossed their arms, while others frowned slightly, waiting for him to say the second half of his sentence.
