Chapter 198: Hyogo Prefecture (End of the Volume)
Koshien opens on August 7.
It's August 1st.
Tomorrow, all the players from Seido High School will get on a bus and go to Hyogo Prefecture.
There, Seido High School players will be habilitated for four days.
This kind of adaptive training is very necessary. Hyogo Prefecture is not far from Tokyo. However, the topography is very different, and the corresponding climate is also quite different.
The most intuitive point is that the temperature in Hyogo Prefecture is significantly higher than in the Tokyo area.
In the Tokyo area, the highest temperature in the summer is in the mid-30s. The temperature in Hyogo Prefecture is significantly higher than in the Tokyo area by two or three degrees.
This little difference, if it were placed in a normal school, they would not think much about it at all.
But who made Qingdao High School tyrants?
The most important thing is Koshien, a goal that Seido High School has pursued for six years.
The school will not tolerate the slightest error.
The chubby principal directly ordered that even if it was a baseball stadium rental, the players should be allowed to adapt in advance.
Of course, it didn't end up being so extravagant. As a top wealthy family in the country, Qingdao High School has good friend schools in various regions.
Hyogo Prefecture, naturally, is the same.
Kawada West High School, after the summer vacation comes, the players will also be on vacation.
As one of the sister schools of Seido High School, the principal of Nishi Kawada was very generous in lending the baseball club's court and dormitory to Seido High School temporarily.
The contestants of Qingdao High School will be there for four days of secret training.
The day before departure, the training at Seido High School ended early.
The contestants went back to their dormitories to prepare their luggage.
In dormitory No. 5.
Sawamura has been a little depressed since he returned to the dormitory.
It can be seen that this introverted senior is not in a very good mood.
"Don't be sad, Senior Zengzi, aren't you already ......"
Kuramochi smiled and said with relief.
"But Tanaka is eliminated!"
Masuko's voice was so heavy that it felt like a muffled drum.
It's, guilty!
It has to be said that human feelings are very complicated.
In the previous finals, Masuko made a mistake.
After making a mistake, of course, he also worried about whether he would be eliminated.
At that time, the anxiety about his future far outweighed the guilt.
Now that the dust has settled, Masuko's guilt has come out.
He's talking about Tanaka, but what he really cares about is Tachitachi.
Hitachi is the third baseman!
Almost, Masuko was about to be eliminated, perhaps in Masuko's own mind, he should have been eliminated.
"Good guy syndrome!"
With a wry smile, Sawamura took the initiative to find Masuko.
"These things are not up to us to decide. The reason why Superintendent Kataoka left Senior Hitatsu and asked you to go to Koshien was because he thought that you were more reliable in the position of third base. As the captain said before, the only thing we can do for those of us who have been selected for the Koshien team is to push Seido High School to greater glory. ”
After listening to Sawamura's words, Masuko's feelings immediately improved a lot.
In fact, at this time, all he needs is comfort.
"I didn't expect you to have the ability to be a psychiatrist?"
After being said a few words by Sawamura, Masuko immediately recovered his spirits, which was very difficult for Kuramochi to accept, he looked at Sawamura incredulously and teased.
Psychiatrist!
When he heard this title, Sawamura was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly.
He doesn't deserve such a lofty name, and the real psychiatrist is much more powerful than him.
The reason why he was able to convince Masuko was because Masuko himself had already figured out in his heart what he was going to do. Sawamura merely played a pacifying role.
Speaking of which, this is also to blame the temptation of Koshien, which is too big for the players of the Seido High School baseball club! It is impossible for anyone to turn a blind eye!
How many times did they think about the scene in Koshien when they dreamed back at midnight?
Now Koshien is close at hand, but it is one door and one foot away, and I can't get in.
Whoever puts it on it, no one will feel good in their hearts.
It's not just those who lose the election that are uncomfortable, but those who have already been selected will not feel good watching their teammates who get along with them day and night go out like this.
Packing is a simple thing for a boy.
The manager of the team will set off with the team on the afternoon of the 6th.
Now the only people who go to Hyogo Prefecture are the players of the first army of Seido High School.
Night falls.
After dinner, the players of the Qingdao High School baseball club all went back to their dormitories early and went to sleep.
A few days before the start of Koshien, in addition to the daily training, the usual additional training at Seido High School was canceled.
This was on the advice of Coach Ochiai.
"The opening of Koshien will be on August 7th, and the final will be on August 21st. It's only two weeks in total, and if you make it all the way to the end, you'll have to go through six rounds of fighting. And unlike the regional competition, the opponent is also the top team in the country. Such a fierce competition, coupled with a temperature of more than 30 degrees, is enough to consume people. At this time, excessive training is harmful and useless. ”
Originally, the baseball club of Seido High School really didn't have such experience. In other words, there is such an experience, and it has been forgotten because it has not entered Koshien for six consecutive years.
was reminded by Coach Ochiai, and everyone slapped their thighs.
That's right!
Such a dense competition, coupled with the scorching summer temperatures.
Even if you don't do anything, I'm afraid you'll sweat just by standing in the sun.
Not to mention a fierce showdown with the national-level heroes?
Physical strength is a big problem!
The coaching staff of the Baseball Club of Seido High School suddenly realized this problem.
After realizing this problem, of course, it is necessary to make all kinds of physical reserves.
The principal of Qingdao High School, after hearing the news, prepared a variety of health products and nutritional products.
I even bought an expensive foreign summer artifact.
Huoxiang Zhengqi Pill!
It is said that this has an ancient heritage, and the effect is very impressive.
Nothing was said all night.
On the second day, the eighteen players of the first army of Qingdao High School, after the morning exercise, followed the school bus to Hyogo Prefecture after eating.
He was accompanied by Mr. Ota, the head of the baseball club of Seido High School, and Ms. Rei Takashima, the deputy director.
as well as Kataoka Supervisor and Ochiai Coach.
The bus sped all the way on the highway, and in the afternoon, it came to Hyogo Prefecture.
Kawada West High School.
As soon as the Seido High School players got off the bus, they saw a sign welcoming them.
"Welcome to the Great Demon King, come to Kawada West!"
After seeing the slogan, Kuramochi angrily dragged Sawamura over.
"How come you have your fans here?"
Sawamura spread his hands helplessly.
"How do I know?"
