165.2 cm.
Hinata's eyes widened. "Oohhh—I'm 1.65m now!!"
He grew a full three centimeters this year!
At this rate, breaking through 1.7m won't just be a dream!
"Coach will prepare nutritious meals for us, so 1.7m will definitely not be a problem." Infected by Hinata's smile, Miya Atsumu was also in high spirits.
Rather than that, we should strive for 1.75m.
Hinata raised his hand and cheered, "That's right! I want 1.75m!"
Xiaoxia, who was estimated to be 1.8m tall, interjected, "Then I'm still more impressive."
Miya Atsumu shook his fingers. "No, no, no, it's the 1.84m Atsumu-senpai who is more amazing."
Hinata immediately shouted along with Miya Atsumu's words, "Atsumu-senpai is amazing!"
Upon hearing that title, Miya Atsumu quickly turned his head away, raising his arms to shield his face.
After a couple of light coughs, he said seriously, "Fine, then let's go measure our body fat percentage."
“Scumbag.”
Bastard.
Trash.
Suna Osamu and Aran gave their respective evaluations at the same time.
And Amatori added the final word.
“Pervert.”
Chapter 237: The 237th Fox
Miya Atsumu, who had been blushing while trying to hide his face, was struck in the back by four consecutive sharp criticisms.
Somehow overcome with embarrassment and rage, he lunged directly at Miya Osamu: "What's wrong with me! I'm proud! I'm so proud!"
He was the one Shoyo praised! Not that idiot Miya Osamu!
Amatori pointed at Miya Atsumu and said, "He's actually proud of himself."
That perverted expression was almost too much to look at.
While the Twins were fooling around, Coach Kurosu had already come over to call everyone to get their weight and body fat measured.
The final results were no different from what Coach Kurosu had expected; the First Year students who previously had slightly high body fat levels had all trained down to a normal level.
As for Miya Osamu, who had passed before.. his body fat percentage is seriously over the limit this time.
“Osamu, I will provide your meal plan for the next two months.” To Osamu's eyes, Coach Kurosu, who was no different from Lord Yama, had delivered the final verdict.
Atsumu-senpai, I'll leave the supervision to you.
Atsumu-senpai quickly raised his hand to make an OK gesture: "Mission guaranteed!"
After saying that, he also made a face at Miya Osamu.
Miya Osamu flashed a smile back at Miya Atsumu, then raised his hand toward the Coach.
Coach, can I stay in the same dormitory as Shoyo? I have things I want to teach him regarding receiving and how an Opposite supports the play.
Xiaoxia moved into the girls' dormitory with Coach Himegomiya, while they still stayed with the third years of Itachiyama.
Under Miya Atsumu's resistant gaze, Coach Himegomiya readily agreed.
Miya Osamu turned his head and made a face at Miya Atsumu, then reached out and grabbed Hinata, who had become exceptionally excited upon hearing about the training session, led him out of the Itachiyama school infirmary.
Miya Atsumu looked as if the sky were falling.
He had just been about to chase after him when Coach Kurosu grabbed his arm: "Atsumu, don't go just yet. You should learn how to record player data from Shinsuke."
"Huh?" Hearing the Coach's words, Miya Atsumu was clearly stunned for a moment.
Having quickly realized what Coach Kurosu meant, he became even more confused, then he let out a heavy question.
“Me?”
Meanwhile, on the other side, Shoyo saw Tokura Yukihito, whom he hadn't seen for several days, at the entrance of the dormitory building.
Seeing Tokura appear here, Hinata was pleasantly surprised: "Yukihito! What are you doing here?!"
He rushed straight forward, jumping up to high-five the other person in celebration.
Tokura scratched his head. "Hehe, I was actually going to head out with everyone from the Second String last night, but Coach Kurosu called me back."
Coach said he wants me to join the First String as a substitute later on, so I need to test all my various stats.
Hinata was even happier: "Ohhh! Yukihito, you're going to have a team uniform!"
As the former Second String rookie duo, they actually managed to reunite in the First String!
The boy who once didn't even know what a Middle Blocker was also cheered, "Yay! A team uniform!"
Looking up at him, Hinata blinked. "Wait a second, Yukihito, how tall are you now?"
He had grown a full three centimeters this year! He had grown from less than 1.63m to over 1.65m!
Tokura scratched his head. "It's only 1.85m.."
He was 1.81m when he entered high school.
Hinata fell to his knees, unable to get up.
He lost all color: "Fate is just so unfair.."
Why, why!
Xiaoxia, who is shorter than him, is growing in height at a frantic pace, while those who are taller than him are growing even faster!
Tokura also knelt on the ground, unable to get up: "It's because I grew too tall that the dance teacher talked me out of it.."
When his ballroom dance teacher took him to the hospital to measure his projected future height, the result was 1.93m. The teacher, who had originally been training him as a successor, was so distressed by the news that he couldn't sleep for several days.
When his height skyrocketed past 1.8m during junior high, the teacher who had taught him dance for ten years finally spoke up and urged him to give it up.
The two of them held each other and cried bitterly.
“Why can't I grow taller?!”
Why am I so tall!!
Miya Osamu, following behind, was momentarily at a loss for words.
However, the two of them changed their moods as quickly as they had arrived, after wailing for a while, they inexplicably shifted the subject.
Hinata scrambled up and patted his pants. "By the way, Yukihito, did the Coach ask you to choose a number?"
Tokura shook his head. "No, they should be assigned in order."
He felt it should be number 12 or 13; after all, besides the Libero, the last number available to the Second Years was 13.
"Humph." Hinata gave a smug smile.
Miya Osamu crossed his arms over his chest. "What, did Coach let you choose for yourself?"
Hinata turned around, his face full of mystery: "That's right, do you want to take a guess, Osamu-senpai?"
Before Miya Osamu could even speak, a voice drifted over from behind.
Number 10, right?
Watching Miya Atsumu walk over with his hands in his pockets, Hinata's face was full of pleasant surprise: "Atsumu-senpai, you're amazing!"
Seeing Hinata's expression, Miya Atsumu's smile spread from the corners of his mouth to the edges of his eyes. "After all, it's the same number Unai-senpai used to wear; it must hold a special meaning for you, Shoyo."
Actually, there was no need to guess at all; the answer was obvious.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm!
Hinata nodded frantically, his face practically screaming, "Exactly, exactly, that's right."
After looking Miya Atsumu up and down, Miya Osamu raised an eyebrow. "Did you take the wrong medicine? Why are you acting so smug here?"
This guy had been walking over with a smug look on his face, acting like a grand and swaggering goose.
Miya Atsumu didn't even bother to look properly at Miya Osamu: "Osamu-kun, how can you speak to the future Captain like that?"
Miya Osamu was also stunned for a moment. "You?"
Atsumu-senpai's chin was practically pointing at the sky. "It's me, so what?"
He is the next Captain personally appointed by the Coach!
Although there was still some time before the team uniforms were issued, once the Third Year seniors retired, he would be the undisputed leader of the Volleyball Club.
Osamu also stood with his hands in his pockets, mirroring Miya Atsumu's stance: "It's nothing, I was just a little surprised."
He didn't think Miya Atsumu would be a bad Captain.
As a twin, he knew very well that as long as Miya Atsumu wanted to, he could do anything, it was just.. he couldn't stand seeing this guy acting so cocky.
His fists were itching.
While the two were engaged in their mindless conversation, the First Year High School students had already moved on to discussing Suna.
Tokura, who was scheduled to live with Suna, turned his head and headed straight into the dormitory.
Suna-senpai—can I borrow your uniform for Shoyo to wear for a bit?
Suna didn't hesitate for even a second: "Sure."
Miya Atsumu, who was still trading trash talk with the twins, suddenly turned his head.
No! Rintaro, you're not allowed to agree!!
But it was too late to say anything, as Suna had already stuffed the previously washed uniform into Hinata's hands.
I got it early! Awesome!
Shoyo cheered and ran off, getting ready to try it on.
