Riko's POV
As the towering figure of the red-haired stranger receded into the distance, my eyes were fixed on him, then went to his registration form, eagerly scanning his paper for any clues that might reveal his origins. And then, like a bolt of lightning, it hit me.
"Ehh??!!" I exclaimed, my voice betraying a mixture of shock and excitement.
The sudden outburst had the desired effect, as the others in the booth turned to face me, their eyes filled with concern.
"What's wrong?" asked the boy beside me, his voice laced with worry.
But I was too busy reveling in my discovery to pay him any attention. "He's from Teiko!" I cried out, my voice trembling with excitement.
A hush descended upon the room, as everyone processed the implications of my words. "Which means...?" ventured one of the guys.
"He's a first-year student, so he's probably a member of the Generation of Miracles!" I said, unable to contain my glee.
My enthusiasm was contagious, and soon everyone in the room was caught up in the excitement. I shook one of my friends with glee, while others high-fived each other and exchanged knowing glances.
But then, just when I thought things couldn't get any better, Furihata handed me a slip of paper. "You forgot one more."
I gave it a cursory glance, but then my eyes widened in disbelief. "A-Another one?" I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper.
And then the floodgates opened. Tears streamed down my face as I realized what this meant for our team.
"Someone get Riko-san some water!" Hyuga said, as one of the guys panicked and rushed to do his bidding.
I was overwhelmed with emotion. We had not only secured the services of a promising talent from the United States, but now we had not one, but two players from Teiko, both of whom were likely members of the legendary Generation of Miracles.
As I looked around the premises, I could see that everyone else was equally ecstatic. We had reason to believe that our team was on the cusp of greatness, and nothing could dampen our spirits.

"Alright, it looks like all the first-years are here!" one of the seniors exclaimed with unbridled joy.
