I am in Prince of Tennis, others are training me while I am lying down

In a barbecue restaurant.

While Kirihara was preparing the dipping sauce, Takahashi quickly returned to his seat and got rid of Kirihara.

Yukimura saw Takahashi coming back and said to him, "Some time ago, the regional qualifiers for Kanagawa ended, and our Rikkai University was the first place."

"That doesn't matter. Next up is the regional competition."

"This is also your first year participating, Takahashi."

“Although the regional competition is not difficult, you still have to go and see it.”

"As for the other starting players, 3-4 will be enough!"

Takahashi responded with a "hmm".

"We are the overlord of the Kanto region, and we have been the number one in the regional competition for many years. This is a piece of cake. Only the national competition is worthy of our seriousness!"

Kirihara also returned to his seat and said nonchalantly.

"No matter what level of competition it is, we can't be careless or let our guard down!" said Sanada on the side, frowning.

Kirihara uttered a “tsk” sound.

Sanada saw an empty seat next to Takahashi and sat next to him.

Takahashi was drinking a cup of milk tea.

When I looked up, I saw Sanada's dissatisfied look.

Takahashi raised his eyebrows and asked Sanada why he was dissatisfied.

"Milk tea is junk food. It contains too much sugar and is not good for your body. You should not drink this kind of beverage when you are still in adolescence."

That's really the speech of an elder!

Takahashi stuck his head out and saw a cup of green tea placed on Sanada's original seat.

Just looking at the thick tea soup, you can feel a bitter taste.

It’s really a hobby for the elderly!

"Deputy Minister, we are of the same age after all. Don't always act like an elder and lecture me."

Takahashi complained.

Marui on the side also chimed in, saying, "Sugar is a good thing. It can quickly replenish your physical strength. Takahashi, come on!"

After saying that, he placed a piece of cake in front of Takahashi.

“My favorite, sharing with you!”

When Sanada saw the cake, he got a headache.

"Marui, eat less sweets."

“You’ll get diabetes!”

Marui disagreed and said, "Today is a dinner party, Deputy Minister, please control your attitude!"

Sanada was silent.

"Takahashi, how do you usually train? You've made such great progress in just one month!"

Sanada asked, finally getting back to the point.

After hearing this, Marui and Kirihara also became interested.

Looking at the three people looking at him eagerly, Takahashi spoke.

"Um……"

"Improve the practice efficiency per unit time!"

Kirihara looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The right time, the right place, and the right people. All three are indispensable!"

Takahashi replied in a pretentious manner.

"What the hell?" Kirihara started yelling again.

"Quiet!"

Sanada stopped Kirihara and started thinking.

Thinking of the conversation a month ago, Takahashi also proposed this theory.

As far as he knew, "the right time, the right place, and the right people" came from the classic work "Mencius" of the Dragon State.

The original intention seems to be directed against war.

The court is like a battlefield!

Applying combat theory to tennis is indeed profound!

His own Fenglinhuoshan also comes from the Dragon Kingdom's classic "The Art of War".

Thinking back to a month ago, he still thought that Takahashi was just deceiving him and making up an excuse.

Now it seems that I was ignorant!

Mistaking pearls for fish eyes!

It's my own fault!

It seems that I still need to study Long Guo’s works carefully!

Its connotation is profound and extensive!

Sanada looked at Takahashi with respect!

Being able to apply battlefield theories to the tennis court, he is truly a genius!

……

the next day.

In the tennis club office.

Takahashi sat on a swivel chair.

There is a table in front of the chair.

Across the table sat Minister Seiichi Yukimura.

Renji Yanagi and Genichirō Sanada sat on the sofa nearby.

"I don't quite understand what you just said, please repeat it again!"

Takahashi Road.

Yukimura Seiichi smiled and continued, "Takahashi-san, the tennis club has always respected strength."

"You defeated our former vice-chairman Sanada in yesterday's match. You succeeded in your challenge."

"According to Rikkai University's rules, you will be the next vice president of the tennis club. You will also take over Sanada's original No. 2 singles position."

"So, starting today, you will be responsible for all matters concerning the tennis club."

"And the regional competition in the Shinagawa area is about to begin."

"According to Rikkai University's tradition, the team is led by the vice minister."

"I believe that with your ability, first place is guaranteed!"

"In the regional competition in the Shinagawa area, our Rikkai University has always won first place. I can't even count how many years it has been like this!"

Yukimura patiently explained it again to Takahashi.

Sanada also said, "I have also written a management guide that clearly explains the duties of the deputy director. I will give it to you later."

What! I still want to be a deputy minister for this bullshit!

Isn't this the old lady?

You have to take care of all the big and small things.

From regional competitions to the daily training volume of team members, all are the responsibilities of the deputy director.

And Sanada was able to write this book. What a huge workload!

How could Takahashi, who has always been free and easy, accept such trivial and complicated labor!

He challenged Sanada so that he could continue to live a free life in the future.

If I really become the deputy minister, I must get up early every day. What's the difference between this and training!

Takahashi turned his gaze to Yukimura's side.

I saw the old photos displayed in the window.

In the photo, Genichirō Sanada looks youthful.

Looking back, the person sitting on the sofa was obviously a middle-aged man wearing a black hat.

A strong sense of vicissitudes comes over me.

This is what it’s like to be a deputy minister for three years.

"I reject!"

Takahashi said firmly.

"That's the rule," Yanagi Renji said. "Besides, the tennis club of Rikkai University is well-known throughout the country. The position of vice-chairman is a goal that many people aspire to."

Yukimura continued, "The tennis club has a lot of chores to do. I'll let Sanada take over slowly and give you some time to adjust."

"These are the deputy minister's responsibilities. So what are you going to do as the minister?"

Takahashi asked.

Sanada was a little dissatisfied and continued, "The director is the leader of the entire tennis club. He is our goal and shows us the way forward."

"Okay, since I succeeded in challenging the deputy minister and can become the deputy minister, then next, I want to challenge you!"

Takahashi said firmly to Yukimura.

Takahashi has seen through it all. Being a deputy minister is just a hard job.

Only the Minister's job is sinecure!

You don’t have to be on time for every training session, and you don’t even have to lead the team in the regional competitions.

He claims to be the leader of the entire tennis club, but isn't he just a mascot who doesn't care about anything?

This is where he should be.

Lie down and give up openly.

No one can control it!

No one dares to intervene!

This is the life he longs for!

Takahashi was determined in his goal.

That's the position of minister!

Takahashi's words surprised the other three people present.

For many years, no one dared to challenge Yukimura directly.

He entered Rikkai University from Yukimura and challenged the then-chairman as a freshman. After becoming famous in one battle, in the past three years, the chairman has been more like a god far away from the human world, and no one dared to challenge him.

Even Deputy Minister Sanada had very few opportunities to fight against Yukimura.

How dare Takahashi, who had just become the vice minister, directly challenge the survival?
