"No, Date, you've got it wrong. This wasn't luck."
Fukuda Tatsuya spoke with a solemn expression.
"From the very beginning, everything happened exactly as Kira Ryosuke predicted."
"What? That's impossible."
Date Nozomi found Fukuda Tatsuya's words hard to believe, but the latter continued:
"No, it's true. From the start, he was aiming at the goalpost. He used the post to pass the ball and create an opportunity for Kunigami Rensuke."
"From that far away... he used the goalpost to pass?"
Date Nozomi froze. He found it hard to believe that this could really have been done on purpose.
However, he had to admit that if it was someone of Kira Ryosuke's caliber, it really might have been possible.
Kira Ryosuke was indeed someone who could create miracles.
"But there's another problem. The ball landed at Kira Ryosuke's feet. That should have been luck, right?"
"That part was luck—but Kira Ryosuke called that luck to him."
Fukuda Tatsuya continued explaining:
"His first shot was meant to test Wakasimzu Ken's abilities. When Kunigami Rensuke took his shot, Kira believed the other side could block it, so he went to the most likely landing point in advance and finished the shot."
"C-Can an ordinary person really do something like that?"
"I don't know. Even what I just said is only my guess."
Fukuda Tatsuya smiled and shrugged.
"But because he's Kira Ryosuke, he can do it."

"What exactly was going on with that goal?"
At that moment, Wakasimzu Ken had just gotten up from the ground, and his earlier arrogance had vanished completely.
Although he had seen Kira Ryosuke's terrifying shooting power on video before, seeing it on a screen and witnessing it in person were completely different things.
