Chapter 37 - Locker Room Speech (2/2)

One by one, every third-year member repeated what Ishida did and told Shun that he did well.

By the time all of them finished, Shun was the only one in the room, with the coach was standing at the door.

Shun looked at the coach and said.

Shun: ”Yes, I did well. I did more than well. I was friggin phenomenal out there.”

Coach smiled and replied.

Coach: ”Yes, you were phenomenal. Now hurry up and come on out. I think I heard the third-years making bets about if you would cry in here or not.”

Shun laughed out loud and exited the room.

Shun entered the court where the game was held.

Kamizaki Middle School had beaten Meiho Middle School in a close game of 64-62.

He saw Aomine talk with Inoue, and players from all teams interacting with each other.

On the other hand, when the people on the court saw Shun enter, all of their eyes were drawn towards him.

Inoue: ”So that's Kageyama Shun, I still can't believe that he scored seventy-plus points in the finals.”

Aomine sighed thinking about the game.

Aomine: ”I couldn't stop him, to be honest, our entire team couldn't stop him, the only reason we won was that Akashi passed the ball to Murasakibara and he made that three. My heart almost stopped when I saw the ball bounce.”

Kamata's Captain: ”I saw the match, it sure was a close one. I can't believe a first-year scored seventy-seven points, in the National's finals.”

Kamata's Captain looked at Nijimura, who was also looking at Shun.

Nijimura: ”What we faced today was beyond a monster. Kageyama Shun was able to score and defend against the players that I consider to be monsters. The next two years are going to be exciting for the middle school basketball scene.”

The players were all staring and talking about Shun, and there was only one thought in Shun's mind.

Shun: 'Why are all of them staring at me.'

He turned towards Aone and asked.

Shun: ”Aone-senpai, is there something on my face?”

Aone seriously looked at Shun's face, and then shook his head.

Aone: *Shake*

Shun: ”Then, why is everybody staring at me?”

Aone gave Shun a look that said, do you really don't know.

But Shun didn't see that as he was trying to see if there was something wrong with his tracksuit.

Shun: ”Whatever, let's get this award ceremony over with.”
