Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

Both defensive players received fouls and were temporarily sent off.

Lisa Shiraishi wanted to swim back to her own half as quickly as possible, but she suddenly stopped moving as if she was hit by an electric current.

My right leg felt like it was being pulled by something and caused severe pain, and my body began to sink uncontrollably into the water.

"Shiraishi-senpai!"

The nearby team members swam towards her quickly and dragged her to the shore little by little.

"Is it a leg cramp?"

The girls gathered around her with concern.

"It's okay, just let me rest for a minute."

She endured the pain and spoke to them.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Ginjo Sosuke quickly rushed down from the stands.

"I'll take care of Shiraishi-senpai, you guys should get back on the field."

The girls nodded and returned to the pool.

"Ginjo-san..."

After seeing the team members leave, she couldn't help but sound like she was about to cry.

"Don't worry, Shiraishi-senpai, it'll be okay."

Ginjo reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, then massaged and stretched your stiff right leg.

"For this game..."

Lisa Shiraishi said with trembling lips.

“We will definitely win!”

Ginjo Sousuke held her hand tightly.

In the last ten minutes, the winner will be revealed...

Chapter 188 Screaming Cheers

Lisa Shiraishi, who had to temporarily leave the game due to a cramp in her right leg, sat in a chair panting, her chest rising and falling with her rapid breathing.

Ginjo Sousuke held her hand tightly, as if he wanted to pass on his strength to her.

There were two minutes left in the third quarter. Although two players from Makino University were temporarily sent off for the foul, Takezono also lost their main player, Lisa Shiraishi.

Without her restraint, Takagi Yuko's attack became more unscrupulous, and she often broke through easily with unreasonable speed.

The situation on the field suddenly changed, and the balance that had just been maintained with great difficulty was suddenly broken.

Wu Yuan missed the goal repeatedly. Without the organization of Lisa Shiraishi, the offense was also very unsuccessful.

Fortunately, there was not much time left in this quarter. When the whistle sounded, Yincheng stared at the scoreboard.

Score 9:12

In just a few rounds, four goals were scored in a row, and the one-point advantage that was hard-won was now returned in full.

Without Lisa Shiraishi, the gap between the two teams was infinitely widened.

"Ginjo-san, my legs are fine now."

Under Ginjo's stretching and massage, the pain in Lisa Shiraishi has gradually disappeared, and her legs, which were stiff just now, can now bend freely.

"Well, it's up to you now, Shiraishi-senpai."

Yincheng nodded deeply at her. He knew that now was the final moment of decision and he could not hold back at all.

The team members who had come ashore to rest also gathered around because they were concerned about Lisa Shiraishi's injury.

"Everyone, my leg has recovered and I can play soon."

Lisa Shiraishi stood up and forced a smile at the girls.

The team members' tense expressions finally relaxed a little, as if they had taken a reassurance pill.

They also knew that if Lisa Shiraishi was absent, the team would not have even a one percent chance of winning.

"It's not like we don't have a chance of winning this match. Even though I may not be able to defeat Takagi Yuko for the time being, we still have Kurizono, Midorikawa and other players on this team."

“Each of you has trained hard and each of you has made great progress.”

"So in this last bit of time, please lend me your strength, and let us defeat Makino University together."

"Because I really like water polo and I like playing with everyone!"

Lisa Shiraishi spoke passionately to the girls in a tone that Ginjō had never heard before.

She clenched her fists and raised them high above her head.

“Have you ignited the fire of fighting spirit in your hearts?”

"Yes!"

"In that case, let's go win the championship!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

The girls gathered in a circle and shouted at the same time.

It seemed as if boiling heat suddenly rose up around them, and flames seemed to be spewing out of everyone's eyes.

Lisa Shiraishi has been waiting for this decisive moment. Although her muscles are still sore, she feels extremely comfortable in her heart.

Her sincere expression made the team's morale reach its peak, and then it was up to Yincheng to make the final tactical arrangements.

Ginjo's idea was simple, which was to re-adopt the tactic that was previously tailored for the warm-up match but was eventually shelved because Takagi Yuko did not play - the "Desperate Six Protecting One".

The specific content is that the six players except Lisa Shiraishi all defend the opponent's ace Takagi Yuko, while the other enemies are strategically left open.

Yuko Takagi is the initiator of all Makino's tactics. As long as she is strangled to death, the opponent's attack will be paralyzed.

But if she passes the ball and someone else takes the shot, then they can only hope that the ball doesn't go in.

The offensive aspect is entirely left to Lisa Shiraishi, as only with her ability can the points be regained in the fastest time.

This is a dangerous tactic of risking everything, but in this desperate situation with no way out, it is also the only option to turn the situation around.

After the girls understood the tactics, they returned to the swimming pool one after another.

When Shiraishi Lisa was about to return to the arena, Ginjo reached out from behind and grabbed her shoulders.

"Shiraishi-senpai, go defeat them!"

Shiraishi Lisa turned around and gently patted Ginjo's hand.

"Wait until I get back, Ginjo-san."

......

When the whistle sounded to signal the start of the final quarter, Makino University was the first to grab the ball and launch an attack.

Yuko Takagi moved forward with the ball, while Lisa Shiraishi stayed near the center line and did not follow.

Just when Takagi Yuko was feeling a little surprised, five shadows appeared in front of her.

Everyone except the goalkeeper rushed towards her.

"Are you crazy?"

Takagi Yuko shouted in surprise.

She seemed to be unconvinced and suddenly sped up, wanting to rush forward.

But no matter how advanced her skills are, she can't fight five people alone.

The ball was quickly intercepted by Li Yuan, who then threw it forward without any adjustment.

Shiraishi Lisa, who had been waiting for a long time, received the ball and flew towards the opposite goal.

Yuko Takagi was still being entangled by several people and was unable to return to defense quickly. Lisa Shiraishi quickly took care of the two players left behind by the opponent and scored a point with a wonderful shot.

Ginjo Sosuke glanced at the scoreboard outside the field and saw that there was still a 2-point gap left.

In the transition from offense to defense, it was still Yuko Takagi who got the ball and was then surrounded.

Although she was extremely unwilling, there was really no other way at the moment. After struggling for a few times, she finally passed the ball.

Another girl then jumped up and shot, but the ball hit the goal frame and bounced out.

After the goalkeeper controlled the ball, he made another long pass, the target still being Lisa Shiraishi who was waiting on the center line.

After she caught the ball, she sprinted with all her strength, swinging her arms.

The opponent left an extra defensive player this time, but Shiraishi Lisa's cutting skills were better. Although her movements did not look so gorgeous, she was always able to avoid the opponent's interception.

And her shooting skills have become unmatched after countless sparring sessions with Ginjo, and she scored another goal with a hook shot after jumping up.

There was only one point left to tie the game, she encouraged herself in her heart.

Yuko Takagi became more and more impatient because of the continuous setbacks in her attacks.

Since she joined the sport of water polo, she has never tasted the taste of defeat.

Her brilliant record made her arrogant and she looked down upon ordinary opponents.

Now suppressed by this crazy tactic, the nameless anger in her heart seemed to consume her.

Seeing their leader in trouble, the other members of Makino's team began to panic.

In the next round, the ball did not reach Yuko Takagi, and after several passes, a player got the chance to face the goalkeeper directly.

Then there was this shot that was so close, but she hit the ball away.

The huge physical exertion and mental pressure caused her movements to be obviously deformed.

The balance of victory finally began to tilt towards Wu Yuan under Yincheng's desperate tactics.

The goalkeeper passed the ball to Midorikawa, and she threw the ball with all her strength towards Lisa Shiraishi's position.

Lisa Shiraishi caught the ball in the air, and after falling into the water, she turned around and directly shook off a person.

The trapped Yuko Takagi had no time to return to defense, but there were still three people in front of the opponent's goal.
