Chapter 72: Canteen Overtime Team
"Out!"
The white ball was shot out and flew high.
The freshman outfielder Kagami arrived early and waited for the landing point of the white ball. The baseball fell and was caught firmly in his glove.
With the last out count, Kuki Yohei finally completed his mission.
"cut!"
Jiugui himself was not satisfied with the result in front of him.
In just two innings, he gave up nine runs. Ever since he started playing baseball, he has never been so embarrassed.
Qingdao High School.
Only now did Jiu Gui realize it clearly. What kind of school are you in now?
Number one in the country, King Qingdao.
It's really different.
The next game, the next game must be...
Just when Kuki Yohei secretly made up his mind, Director Kataoka, who had been silent before, finally reacted.
"Replacement for freshmen!"
He changed three people in one go, the pitcher, the catcher, and the second baseman.
The freshmen's original plans were suddenly disrupted.
"This is too obvious..."
Yui Kaoru, who was the new student's temporary commander, had a bitter look on his face. His plan with Okumura Koshu was blown away by the big hand of Supervisor Kataoka.
It seems that Director Kataoka has no intention of giving the new students a chance to adjust on their own. He just wanted to see if any new student could stand out in such a desperate environment.
Kuki Yohei was extremely upset. He was scored nine points like this, and it would be an understatement to say that the entire performance was a rout.
"Nice slider throw!"
Takuma comforted him kindly.
But how could Kuuki Yohei listen at this time?
"You're already in such a mess, why do you think it's so good?"
If Kuki was annoyed, Matsumoto felt that he was very wronged. He held back his ultimate move, but before he could use it, why was he replaced?
This is not fair!
He secretly made up his mind to catch up with Boss Sawamura as soon as possible so that he could continue to fight side by side with his boss.
"This idiot..."
In the old student's rest area, Sawamura Eijun muttered angrily.
A few years ago, when Matsumoto and the others first joined the Akagi Middle School baseball team, Akagi Middle School also conducted a team selection.
Sawamura Eijun was very impressed with Matsumoto's performance.
Not only is he outstanding in strength, he also has some cleverness of his own. But today, it was obvious that his cleverness was mistaken for his cleverness. Before he had time to use his little cleverness, he was ruthlessly ignored by Director Kataoka.
After all, there are more than 60 freshmen, and the time left for each freshman to perform is very limited. If you don't express yourself quickly at this time, you will try to play the trick of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
It's simply making yourself uncomfortable.
Let that guy learn a lesson!
Thinking this, Sawamura Eijun threw his head to the side, ignoring Matsumoto's pitiful little eyes.
The three people who were named by Supervisor Kataoka were all acquaintances of Sawamura Eijun.
The catcher is Okumura, the pitcher is Asada, his younger brother in the same dormitory, and the second baseman is Takuma.
here we go!
Renewal of the freshman lineup.
On the surface, it seems that Director Kataoka deliberately disrupted the arrangements of the freshmen. But Sawamura Eijun knew very well that Supervisor Kataoka's real intention was to see the strength of these freshmen. And when these outstanding freshmen come together, can they produce a good chemical reaction?
In the next game, the old students cannot be careless. Otherwise, it might really capsize in the gutter.
On the other side, Asada looked stunned when he learned that he had been named.
Since entering Seido High School, Asada has always felt inferior. Although he was specially recruited, look at the people around him who came from the Youth League.
It is inevitable that he feels a little ashamed of himself.
Asada was not a youth baseball player. He played soft ball in middle school. Even in three years of middle school, he was not able to become the team's ace pitcher.
With such a background, he will feel inferior;
No wonder. You must know that this year's enrollment at Wangzhe Qingdao High School is an absolute bumper year. Those who can be selected into the team are almost all youth baseball players, and very few are from soft ball leagues.
Coming from the soft ball league, the only ones who can really be specially recruited are Asada and Matsumoto and Hirota of the Akagi Middle School baseball team.
It is very rare to have a devil like the big devil Sawamura Eijun in the soft ball league. You can't expect everyone who comes from the soft ball league to have that level.
Asada himself does not think that he is a super genius like Sawamura-senpai. In fact, since he started playing baseball, he has never enjoyed the treatment of a genius. How can a person who has been a relief pitcher in middle school dare to call himself a genius?
Based on these circumstances, Asada's positioning for himself is very low. When Takashima Reite recruited him, he even suspected that someone from the admissions department of Seido High School had made a mistake.
Especially the friends who played with him in the past, when they found out that he was specially recruited by Qingdao High School, their eyes were as envious as if they had pink eye. The ace pitcher in the original team even burst into tears.
I don't know if I feel aggrieved or excited for him.
Such Asada didn't even think he had a chance to play in this welcome game. Unexpectedly, Director Kataoka was the first to call his name!
Father, like son.
Although Asada himself looks down on himself, it doesn't mean that no one can look down on him. Completely contrary to Asada's own suspicion, Asada's presence in the current Aomichi High School baseball club is actually quite strong.
what reason?
It's very simple, just look at the dormitory where Asada is located.
Dormitory No. 5 is the main dormitory of the Seido High School baseball club. The four people in the dormitory, Sawamura Eijun and Kuramochi Yoichi, are the unshakable core players of the team. Wang Xi, a junior newcomer, was also promoted to the first army under unusual circumstances.
Sharing a dormitory with these three guys, Asada had a hard time not attracting attention.
With such a sense of presence, it is not surprising that Director Kataoka would call his name first.
It's just that Asada himself couldn't understand these things, so he still looked confused.
"Can I?"
Asada, who was completely unprepared, felt his whole body trembling. He really didn't have any psychological preparation, and he really had the idea of escape at this time.
"Asada, come on!!"
Kuki Yohei, who had just left the field, ignored his own embarrassment and cheered on Asada.
As far as this situation is concerned, they are teammates standing in the same trench. At this time, it is natural to encourage your teammates...
"profound!"
Asada responded stupidly, but in fact, he was not in the state at all.
"no problem!"
Just when Asada was feeling uneasy, a voice that made people feel extremely calm suddenly came from behind him.
Asada turned around and saw an extremely handsome figure.
This figure is none other than Okumura, who is about to form a partner with him.
Completely different from Asada, who is in an awkward position. After getting along with each other for a month, Okumura Koshu has begun to stand out among the freshmen with his outstanding skills.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem. You are a left-hander and with such a height. The curveball thrown from this position will definitely make the seniors overwhelmed."
Okumura's voice was very calm, not exaggerating at all, as if he was stating a fact.
This statement also gave Asada a lot of confidence.
Although he still believes that with his three-legged cat skills, it may be difficult to knock out the seniors. But he still wanted to respond to Okumura's expectations from the bottom of his heart.
He doesn't want to disappoint those who have high expectations for him.
"Don't worry, it's no problem. Let these seniors take a look at the ambition of our overtime team in the cafeteria!"
Okumura and Asada seem to be completely unrelated to each other. But the real situation is really not like this.
One thing they all have in common among freshmen is that they all fall into a hard fight when facing the target of three big bowls of rice.
Neither of them have particularly big appetites, so they were really unable to cope with the three large bowls of rice strictly required by the Qingdao High School Baseball Club.
If you are an ordinary person, you will inevitably have to play some tricks. But these two guys are still real people. They don't bother to use those little tricks...
So I could only stuff one grain of rice into my mouth. Every time we eat, both of us eat the slowest.
They are affectionately called the canteen overtime team by teammates on the same team.
Because every time they eat, the two of them fall at the end of the queue. At that time, they were the only two people in the entire cafeteria.
Asada has a sense of identity with this identity. Only at this time could he clearly feel that the Okumura in front of him was not unattainable, they were teammates in the trenches.
Although this idea is somewhat self-deceptive, I have to say that it is still very effective.
Asada quickly calmed down and could calmly handle the next game.
"Do not worry!"
In the first half of the third game, the Laosheng team attacked.
The first pitcher to step into the batter's box was Kawashima, the eighth pitcher.
In the rest area of the old student team.
Sawamura Eijun looked at his shooting partners on the field. Both of them were freshmen who had a close relationship with him. There was a sharp flash in his eyes.
Don't underestimate these seniors in the third grade of Qingdao High School.
Even if they are just lower hitters in the second army, their strength has been honed over time. If one fails, he will be beaten by the prefect.
Be sure to be mentally prepared...
"Whoosh!"
After seeing Okumura give the signal, Asada didn't hesitate much and directly threw the white ball in his hand.
The small white ball moves frighteningly slowly.
Kawashima, who was in the strike zone, frowned slightly as he watched the flying baseball.
At this time, he was almost doubting life. How come there is a ball that can’t reach 120 kilometers?
How did such a person get into Qingdao?
"Ping!"
He had doubts in his mind, but showed no mercy in his hands. The small white ball was forcefully pushed out.
