Chapter 31: The First Strike You Didn't Expect
Half a month has passed since joining the First Army, and Shigerino can basically be said to be able to keep up with the training intensity of the First Army, of course, Shigerno Xin is very clear that this is not the real highest intensity training of the First Army, in the original book, summer camp training, winter camp training, that is the real hell intensity training, the kind in front of you, can only be regarded as average.
What Shigerno Shin needs to do at this stage is to constantly fill in himself, make his foundation more solid and solid, and make himself an indispensable force for the team faster, so as to get the opportunity to play to prove his existence value.
Shigerino Shin originally thought that he had just entered the first army, and it should take a while for such an opportunity to come, but he didn't expect that Inspector Kataoka sometimes really played his cards out of common sense, often at times you didn't expect it.
Make some decisions that surprise most people.
On Friday, April 11th, tomorrow, Seido High School will welcome its second opponent in the spring competition, and the name of this opponent is also a slightly familiar high school for Shigeno Shin.
Seven Mori High School, the opponent that was encountered in the second round of the original autumn competition, Qingdao High School, is also the key event for the protagonist Sawamura Eijun to overcome his inner corner jerk phobia, in the original book, it was completely crushed and defeated by Qingdao High School, Rongchun kept a clean sheet in five games, and Qingdao High School got a huge advantage of more than ten points, and ended the game early in the fifth game, and successfully advanced to the top 16 of the autumn competition.
For this school, Shigerno Shin still has a slight impression, after all, it is a key battle for the protagonist Sawamura Eijun to return to the starting line of the ace.
"I didn't expect to meet it at the spring competition, it's really fate...
Sitting at the bottom of the place, Shigerino's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a smile, and whispered in his heart.
Although it was only against a team that was not very strong, and it could even be said that it was relatively weak, Qingdao High School still held a pre-war meeting very cautiously.
Tactical arrangements for the game.
and the analysis of opponents' profiles.
There is also the choice of the first mover.
Superintendent Kataoka is meticulous in his arrangements.
However, at the end of today's meeting, Superintendent Kataoka made a choice that surprised most people when it came to choosing the starting pitcher.
"Finally, tomorrow's starting pitcher, Shigeruno, is up to you."
At the top of the place, Superintendent Kataoka, who stood solemnly, looked at Shigerano Shin, who was sitting behind Chris's senior, and the words that were faintly confided.
Shigeno Shinto was stunned for a short time.
Ha? First-mover? Tomorrow?
Is it so sudden?
Shigero's Shinto felt that he was having auditory hallucinations, it stands to reason that he had just joined the first army, shouldn't he just be a good apprentice and accumulate experience? Even if the spring competition is suitable for training, basically they will choose to have a big advantage in the game, and then let the freshmen play, right?
Even though Qisen High School is only a team ranked last in strength, superintendent, is it really appropriate for you to choose a freshman who has just joined the department for less than a month to start on the Spring University stage?
The seniors around me.
Except for Chris, who had already learned about the arrangement from the overseer, most of them looked at Shigerino Shin, who was sitting at the back seat, with a surprised expression.
Especially Inoue Senpai and Tanba Senpai.
Originally, I thought that if my junior brother wanted to catch up with them, he still needed to take some more roads, but today I found that this junior brother was already an existence that could play.
Regardless of the purpose for which Kataoka overseer arranged for Shigeno Nobu to strike.
At least it is certain that Superintendent Kataoka will definitely recognize Shigerino's strength and let him go on the board, otherwise, he will definitely let the hone hone Shigerino's Shin.
A trump card does not equal a start.
The first does not mean the trump card.
However, in the middle of a baseball game.
Especially in the game of high school students, the meaning of the existence of the starting pitcher is still different, strictly speaking, whether it is the starting pitcher, the relay pitcher, or the closer, for a team, the importance is the same.
However, for the players.
The meaning is completely different.
There is no need to say anything else.
Just one sentence can be expressed.
Only the starting pitcher has the possibility of finishing the pitch!!
Just that, for every pitcher, the meaning of starting is fully embodied.
At least in the competition for Japanese high school students.
The meaning represented by the first mover is more of a different value, which is why Shigerno Shinkai is a little stunned.
"Shigerino Shin?"
It seems that he is a little dissatisfied with Shigerano's hesitation.
Superintendent Kataoka's slightly raised tone and slightly cold eyes made Shigerano Shin instantly shake his whole body, and quickly came back to his senses and replied loudly, "Yes, Superintendent!!" ”
"Yes"
Superintendent Kataoka bowed slightly.
"The opponent is not a strong team, we just need to play normally to win, but when we can score more points, we must not give me a soft hand, understand?"
"Yes!!"
Higashi Kiyokuni, Tetsuya Yuuki, Isashiki seniors and others all immediately responded loudly.
"Above, adjournment."
After the adjournment of the meeting.
Superintendent Kataoka took the lead and left.
Minister Ota and Rei Takashima followed.
After Superintendent Kataoka and the others left, Dong Qingguo, who was sitting in the front position, walked over with a big laugh, patted Shigerino Shin's shoulder very hard, and said in a rough voice: "I didn't expect that you kid can start the second game, it seems that the superintendent values you very much, have a good rest tonight, don't mess up tomorrow, boy." ”
Dong Qingguo's vigorous clapping action.
made Shigerino Shin grin suddenly, even if he has experienced a period of experience in the army, this body still can't withstand the shoulder patting of the Eastern Qing Kingdom, or it should simply be said, in the entire team, there are not many people who can withstand it, and Shigerno Shin finally understands who the actions of Isashiki Jun's predecessors learned from, which is a proper inheritance of the predecessors of the Eastern Qing Kingdom.
Just like in the original book.
Kenta Maezono longs for Jun Izawaki, and Jun Izaki makes it clear that he also longs for the Eastern Qing Kingdom.
This may be the same line in a sense of Qingdao High School?
Shigerano thought secretly in his heart.
"Yes, Higashi-senpai, I'll work hard!"
Shigerino immediately replied loudly.
"Haha, don't crash at the beginning of tomorrow, lose too many points, and be supervised and thrown off the pitcher's hill, Shigerun."
Isashiki seniors are always so straightforward and fast-talking, and they say whatever comes to mind, so that Shigerno Shin doesn't know what to reply.
"Come on."
The future philosopher team, Yuuki seniors, also looked at Shigeno Shin with a look of encouragement, and said so succinctly.
"Yes!"
A preview of summer, a fierce battle of spring.
I thought it would take a while to get the opportunity.
Now it has properly descended on Shigerano Shin.
This is our chance!
You must hold it firmly in the palm of your hand.
This is Shigerano's deepest ambition from the depths of his heart!
