Those bunches watched the exchange between Kenji and Akira with growing horror. With each passing mont, they felt their limbs turning cold.
They had made a terrible blunder by thinking that Hiro was an easy prey that they could pick on. But it turned out, he wasn't a person they could afford to ss with.
Just why did they have to get involved with him?
Doubts began to surface in their heart as their face darkened with horror. Subconsciously they turn to look at Daichi, expecting help.
But Daichi didn't even bother to look at them as he proceeded to leave the field.
Daiki, a muscularly built defender, frantically exclaid, "I told you that we shouldn't do this at that ti. But you lot didn't even bother to listen. I even ntioned to you all yesterday that he was supported by Kenji and others. But you lot still ignored my claims. Now look at the consequences."
"How would I know if he had already made allies or not?" Kazuhiro responded appearing as frantic as the others.
Well, since they were the types to prey on the weak, it wasn't surprising to see them such panicked at the mont. After all, if their deeds were to surface it wouldn't end well for those bunches.
And though they had convinced themselves previously, deep down they were fully aware that whatever they were doing wasn't correct.
After that discussion with Kenji, Akira proceeded to leave the field.
Imdiately after figuring out the problem, he proceeded to Nanami's office to inform him about his findings.
Knock! Knock!
Hearing the knock, Nanami who was seated in his chair, appearing rather distressed was startled by the sudden knock.
'It must be Dr. Haruki'
He assud.
After all, it hadn't been that long since he left the field so he could only assu that Dr. Haruki had paid a visit. For sure, Akira wouldn't locate the trouble so early.
"Yes, co in," Nanami said.
However, the mont the door slid open, his eyes widened in shock. It wasn't whom he was expecting. Rather it was the person he had least expected.
Akira?
Did he already figure out the problem?
He couldn't help but feel a bit optimistic seeing him. However, no sooner had it crossed his mind than he imdiately dispelled the thought.
After all, it hadn't even been that long since he asked him that favor. So, how could he find out the problem so fast?
"Coach, I've completed the task," Akira said as he entered the room.
You've what? Are you for real? It hadn't even been half an hour since I'd left the field. Yet you're telling you have already solved the riddle?
A dumbfounded expression adorned his visage as he heard him. He found it quite unbelievable to even think.
Was the matter really that simple for him to identify in a matter of minutes?
Regaining his composure, he asked in a flat tone, "So, what did you find?"
"There's a feud going on in the locker room, coach. And it's regarding the results of yesterday's test. Daiki, Kazuhiro, and a few others are upset about the results." Akira explained his findings.
"So, that's what's going on," Nanami murmured, understanding the gravity of the situation. "I had more or less expected it to be the case. But who told you about it?"
For sure, he would have asked soone on the team. If not how could he find out the problem so soon? So, he couldn't help but wonder about his source of information.
Before proceeding to tell, Akira carefully closed the door. If anybody heard that about his helper they'd probably label him as a snitch. So, he didn't want to sow another discord in the team. Hence before revealing the na of his backer, he carefully checked the surroundings.
Finally, after confirming that there weren't any people listening to their conversation, he proceeded to speak, "I heard it from Kenji, coach. He said that there was so sort of disagreent in the locker room, yesterday."
"I see. So, it was Kenji huh?" Nanami muttered in a low whisper, complacently looking at his table.
"Coach, we need to do sothing about it soon. We can't allow such activity on the team. We need to take action."
Akira sounded quite anxious almost as if he was worried that the feud in the team would hamper the performance of the team greatly. But one could see his sincere concern for the team. He truly cared for the team.
Hence, upon hearing him, Nanami heaved a sigh of relief. His expression lightened as he said in an appreciative tone, "Thank you for the trouble, Akira. I understand your concern for the team. But you needn't worry anymore. I can take it from here."
Hearing his pleasant voice, Akira felt a bit confused at first. There was such grave trouble plaguing the team, yet he appeared such calm. Just how was he able to remain calm in the face of such danger?
Then as the feeling of confusion lifted, his eyes glistened with marvel. He couldn't help but admire his ability to remain coolheaded in such a dire mont.
Truly, he had the ntality of an elite.
For so inexplicable reason, a refreshing feeling washed over him as he felt unusually calm. It was as if he was under the presence of a mighty tree in a scorching desert.
Then he lowered his tone as he responded, "Then I'll leave it to you, coach"
Later in the day, Daiki, Kazuhiro, and a few others were summoned to Nanami's office. Though they hadn't been inford about the reason for the sudden call, it was evident to them that it must have been sothing to do with the matter regarding their trouble with
Hiro.
It wasn't hard to figure out that they were in trouble.
But contrary to their expectation, when they got to Nanami's office they weren't scolded by the coach. Neither were they threatened. Instead, he warmly addressed their concern and provided them with so counseling as if they were the victims.
Stupefied, they could only hear him obediently. However, as they heard him, a feeling of guilt started gnawing on them.
It made them wonder why they had done sothing so evil.
