Chapter 155 – Episode 153. New Director’s Debut! (One)

“Director! Welcome!”

Clapping and whistling sounds everywhere. When AT Thunders’ new head coach Lee Soo-hyun entered the locker room, the players warmly welcomed him.

“Why do you like it?”

“Oh, you don’t like me? I worked under the foreigner, and then the director changed to Lee Su-hyeon.”

Perhapsheheard my self-talk, Yoon Seong-tae answered my words.

“What good is that?”

“First of all, I have a career and I am popular with the players in the 2nd team. And the training isn’t rigorous.”

Training…. When Yoon Seong-tae says this openly, you can feel how much stress the players have been under.

“Ah, a nobleman who has served in the military has that much training.”

“Shit, the army is the army and training is training.”

“Tsk, Yoon Seong-tae is far from me.”

“This bastard, though.”

Avoiding Yoon Seong-tae’s fast-flying night, I stood up and joined the ranks to welcome director Lee Soo-hyun. I could see Yoon Seong-tae clenching his fists from behind, but what can I do?

“Now. Are there two other people besides me? Coach Lee, Coach Jang, please come in.”

After Lee Soo-hyun’s words, Ki-cheol Lee came in. Ugh, to see that face all the way here…. It sucked, but I decided to put up with it for now for the day Hyejin noona came to training. Yesterday, as a result of her chat with Hyejin, she said that she would come over soon, so it didn’t seem like it would take long.

“Then, I think this is enough to introduce each other to each other. The former manager Sands suddenly resigned, so everyone will be confused, but let’s go up slowly. Honestly, we’re not really good enough to be in last place, are we? Right?”

“That’s right!”

“Yep!”

“Okay! Good spirits let’s go slow Then everyone follow me.”

After speaking, Lee Soo-hyun left the locker room. As soon as we meet, it’s training right away…. Cool But I couldn’t follow the director right away.

“Ha, the coach was also called up from the 2nd division, but Hyunseong can’t be called up?”

Because there were things I had to take care of as the youngest member of the team. If there was Kim Hyun-seong, a junior in middle school, he would beat me even if it was time.

As I was about to go outside with drinks and equipment, I could see hitting coach Kim Byung-cheol, now head coach, standing in the hallway leading to the field. The head coach’s expression looked a little dark.

“Coach?”

“Uh, uh. Fierce tiger suffering.”

“Isn’t the coach going?”

“… I have to go.”

Just looking at it, it was the expression of an office worker crying over the promotion. When I was young, sometimes my father used to make that expression…. I suddenly thought of my father, but I didn’t really cry or anything like that. Because those days are past.

‘Certainly, did you feel better mentally? I used to cry for an hour and the whole time. Also….’

Was it thanks to Rosby who constantly polished and polished my mentality? It was true that because of Rossby, he was good at baseball and improved his mentality.

‘Thank you, Mr. Rossby.’

Sometimes there are things that cannot be expressed without words. As I remembered, I thanked Rossby, but I didn’t hear the profanity I expected.

‘… Mr. Rossby?’

Where did the nobleman from earlier go? … Where did the girl come from? There is only one reason why Rossby could disappear. I hurried past the head coach who was standing there and was on the ground. Then I saw Rossby sniffing with a sinister look next to the woman.

Well then…. Announcer? Reporter? Where are you from? It looks pretty. She was a woman of graceful beauty. It was well worth sticking around Rossby.

‘I never looked at Asian women before. Mr. Rossby has changed a lot too.’

‘Hey! Come fast. Quickly find out what this woman smells like… !’

Fuck. The man who was the best second baseman in major league history became crazy about women.

“Ah, Ji Maeng-ho!”

… The scent was pretty good. The subtle scent of perfume, cosmetics, and the smell of flesh mixed harmoniously and stimulated the nose. What perfume are you using?

“Oh, how are you?”

“You are coming out late.”

“Because I’m the youngest.”

“Ah…. That’s right. Is it possible to have an interview? Actually, I wanted to do an interview since yesterday, but it was a bit messy yesterday, righthaha.”

Certainly yesterday I didn’t get any interviews because the director wasn’t there.

“I can, but it’s training time soon.”

“Ah, I told the manager, didn’t you hear? I was going to have an interview with the coach first and then an interview with Maeng-Ho Ji, but I saw Maeng-Ho Ji. A few simple things… ?”

… But why are you talking nonsense? I want to strangle you.

What I hate is such rude behavior. Talking inappropriately in the first meeting, or doing such disrespectful behavior. It didn’t fit the sentiment of a Confucian boy like me who had been involved in elite sports since childhood.

“Player Ji Maeng-ho?”

Well…. It’s from the broadcasting company. Then you should work as hard as you can. Because Soyoung told me not to pretend to be with reporters or broadcasters.

“Yes. Available.”

“Ah! Maeng Tiger, here you are.”

Then, the manager came over.

“I was looking for an interview. It just went well. Why did you come out so late?”

“Uh? Maengho said he came out late because he was the youngest.”

The female announcer’s eyes turned to the luggage I was carrying.

“Oh, we are not a club like that. I just do it because I like Maengho. Give it to me, I’ll bring it to you. Good job interview Understand?”

“Yes. Good job too, brother.”

The manager took my luggage in my hand and quickly disappeared. But what are you arguing for? It’s natural for the youngest to do it.

“Anyway, shall we interview you? Actually, there are many things I want to ask.”

“Then I have to train, so let’s finish it quickly.”

“Yes. PD. It’s possible now. Yes Yes. All right.”

The announcer, who was communicating with the PD, suddenly smiled brightly, and she kindly asked me a question.

“Hello! Dear viewers, is there a player who debuted this season and is blowing a healthy wind into the KBA league? Currently, Maeng-ho Ji holds the 1st place in home runs and RBIs with 6 homers and 24 RBIs, as well as 5 gold medals in on-base percentage, slugging percentage, and OPS! Hello!”

“Hello. This is AT Thunders Ji Maeng-Ho.”

“You’re a rookie, but are you hitting #1 in home runs? What is the secret?”

“Well…. Skill? I just see what they’re going to throw.”

“Ah…. That’s right. Do you have any tips for that?”

“Maybe it’s because I usually do a lot of good deeds?”

It was true. I usually pick up a lot of trash, so I was able to pick up Rossby’s bat, which was strewn about like trash at the stadium.

“Okayhaha, that’s a different answer. I knew you would say things like hard work and exercise.”

“Everyone makes an effort. What.”

“Is that so? In particular, Jamsil is leading the home run this season, but there has never been a hitter from the AT Thunders in history who has topped the home run, right?”

“What, it seems that you lacked strength?”

“Five! Great confidence! The spirit of a rookie, what is this? Do you look confident?”

In response to the announcer’s question, I immediately tightened my arm muscles and looked at the announcer.

“Would you like to touch yourself?”

As if bewitched by my words, the announcer put his hand on my arm muscles. Her slightly cold hand felt intact on her forearm. Hmm…. Your hands are soft too.

‘… I really want to strangle him.’

It’s before training, but I suddenly feel bad. Should I step out?

“Oh, great muscles. I don’t think home runs come out for nothing.”

“Well, I do a lot of lower training as well as my arms. Originally, swing comes from the lower body.”

Haha, is that so? I’m sure the players say that a lot. So, the secret to training these muscles?”

Write. Doesn’t come over I sneakily flirted with her, but the announcer only asked questions. Well, I’m going to jump straight to what a goblin bitch is like this. … Oh, there was one. She reminds me of her having sex in America.

After putting aside my regrets and answering the questions sincerely, the interview time was almost over.

“Then finally…. Well, it’s a bit sensitive, but you did bench clearing before Volcano last time, right?”

Why did you suddenly interview me, but was this the main topic?

“Yes.”

“However, there was a big criticism because he did not apologize after a violent dispute with Baek Doo-hyung. What do you think about Ji Maeng-ho?”

“Did I tell you everything in the last interview? I’ll make it clear right here. If you watch baseball, pitchers are too cheeky. The idea that pitchers will be forgiven no matter how they behave on the mound. If you’re thinking about getting hit by someone else, you have to be prepared to get hit the same way. Even if the same situation comes, I will not avoid it.”

“Still, it’s a good thing….”

“You didn’t do anything to me, but what did you do? Ah! I do have something done. I gave you a bruise. Thankfully. The bruises from being beaten still haven’t come out, would you like to see it? Oh, I can’t show it because it’s from the butt side.”

“Ah..Haha. Okay? However, Lee Won-hyung was taken away during the defense process, but he did not go to the hospital, causing another controversy. This….”

“Who is Wonhyung Lee?”

“I was a second baseman before the volcano….”

“Ah…. That player. Sorry. I can’t remember the person’s name very well. Anyway, I’m sorry, and since it was an accident during the game, I don’t think Lee Won-hyeong, who is unfortunate, will have no major complaints. Yes. What.”

“… End?”

“Yes.”

The announcer stared at me. But what? Even if I go to the hospital, nothing good will come of it. I waste my time for no reason, and he gets annoyed as usual. In my experience, I was more annoyed when someone came to comfort me when I was lying in a hospital bed.

‘Under…. Do you take care of the injured? After all, I’m the only one who can save Rossby from Hell.’

It seemed that even I would be moved by my broad mind.

“Oh, I see. Uh! Director Lee Soo-hyun. Ji Maeng-ho Then, I’ll end the interview here. Thanks for the nice answer.”

“Yes. Take care.”

It seems that something ended abruptly, but it doesn’t matter, right? I immediately ran to the place where the players were gathered.

“Oh, did you come here for an interview?”

“Yes, what were your seniors doing?”

“I was warming up personally before starting training. Training begins after the director’s interview, so warm up quickly.”

“Yep.”

While I was talking with my seniors, someone called me.

“Hey, Ji Maeng-ho!”

“Why?”

Was a meteorologist.

“You didn’t say useless things like you did during the national team, did you?”

“Ah, I’m talking nonsense. I’m just saying the right things. The ‘Fact Machine’ Ji Maeng-ho. I don’t know?”

“What do you mean? Seeing you turn around, I must have said something useless again. Hey, even when I’m doing an interview…. Hey hey! Aren’t you listening?”

I started stretching right away because I thought the nagging of the weather warning would be long. Write. If we win today, Soyoung will feel better.

“… Hey hey! … Funny kid this. Ugh, that’s it.”

But yesterday didn’t look too bad either. Did it feel good not to have to pay the penalty? I mean, even though he’s rich, he’s very strict.

“… Even when I was in the major leagues, when I interviewed…. So that’s it. This bastard really doesn’t listen.”

‘Did you become rich because you were so picky? No, in the first place, the rich So-young is her grandfather, not So-young….’

As she stretched and thought about So-young, she felt a pain in her head.

“Ouch! Why are you hitting me?!”

“Bastard! You have to listen when your senior speaks. Ugh, if I work out for 20 years, I will never see someone like you.”

“Ah, is there any junior who respects seniors as much as I do?”

“Look, look. Look at me this snout. Snout. Uh huh If you were my brother, you would be dead. Algan?”

“You know it’s a shame to do this in society, right?”

“Wow, sue! Sue! Guys. The youngest is suing me.”

At the cry of the weatherman, the eyes of the surroundings turned to us.

Haha. Sangju-hyung, stop catching fierce tigers and stretch. The ears of the ferocious tiger will bleed.”

“Tsk. How much you annoy him, how can he do that?”

“Ah, senior! Look at what this bastard is saying.”

Other seniors were on my side. After all, there is something worthwhile for respecting seniors.
