Chapter 87: The Old Man (Part 2)
Regarding Akutsu's question, Sawamura really didn't know how to speak.
"You're so smart, guess why?"
Since there was no way to speak directly, Sawamura immediately used a little trick to deal with reporters and asked rhetorically.
Akutsu was stunned for a moment.
Before asking Sawamura this question, according to Akutsu's estimate, he thought that Sawamura would definitely tell him.
The survey data is not only Sawamura's performance in the game, but also Sawamura's character, and Akutsu has had an in-depth analysis.
On the surface, Sawamura Eijun is exquisite, but in fact he is a straightforward person with a typical extroverted personality.
If this matchup is Sawamura Eisumi loses, he may ignore himself because he is in a bad mood.
But Sawamura Eijun actually won, and according to his character, the answer will definitely be said at this time.
But he didn't.
This problem is very worthy of Akutsu's study.
After Sawamura asked rhetorically, seeing that Akutsu didn't say a word, he also shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand at Akutsu, and finally left Akutsu with a dashing back.
Strictly speaking, Akutsu's analysis is not bad at all, and if he could, Sawamura would not mind telling him.
He never minded helping his enemies improve their strength, as long as he progressed faster.
Hiding and tucking is not Sawamura Eijun's character.
But what was he going to tell Akutsu?
The most important reason why Sawamura was able to hit Yakutsu's pitch was because he had a lot of experience in batting, in addition to his own good striking strength.
More than ten years of baseball experience, and the opponents are all super difficult pitchers in the major leagues.
At that time, there were hundreds of pitchers who had played against Sawamura Eisumi head-on, and these people were a group of people who were at the top of the world.
Among those people, what kind of opponent has Sawamura Eisuki not met?
Naturally, there are pitchers like Akutsu.
Really let Sawamura Rongchun analyze, he may not be able to say one, two, three, four.
But as long as you stand on the strike zone and play against the pitcher in a dignified manner, there are many balls, and Sawamura Eijun can hit it.
If you have to find one for this phenomenon, it is probably the phrase of the oil seller, practice makes perfect.
But Sawamura Eimura had no way to explain this matter to Akutsu.
No matter how smart Akutsu was, he would never think of such a thing as being reborn.
After the match, because the draw for the quarterfinals had not yet been held, the Seido High School players did not know who their next opponent would be.
So the school decided to put everyone back in the dormitory first, and then everyone went in to recharge their batteries.
Wait until the end of the draw for the second round of Koshien, and then they will come to formulate corresponding tactical countermeasures.
Of course, tonight's press conference is indispensable.
Fortunately, the reporter's interview was placed in the dormitory, not in the Koshien arena, so everyone was saved from the hard work of running back and forth.
When I walked out of the lounge, the next team to play had already pushed open the door and walked in.
Not to mention, it's still an old acquaintance of Sawamura Eijun.
"Hehe, long time no see!"
Looking at Masamune Hongo, who came over with a black face, the smile on Sawamura's face was unnatural.
Speaking of which, this guy is only in the first grade, and he has already come to the game as the main force of the team.
He wears the uniform of the troll Otoenmaki, and is the number 18 of the troll.
A pair of dead fish eyes, looking listless.
When he saw Sawamura, the originally listless dead fish eyes suddenly glared and became bright.
"Well, long time no see!"
Hongo nodded at Sawamura Eijun, looking extremely flat.
It's just that his teeth creak at him.
"Why, you still want to swallow me alive?"
Faced with Hongo Masamune, who hated him to the core, Sawamura didn't care about it on his face.
Speaking of his relationship with Hongo Masamune, that's deep.
I won't mention the things about Chen sesame seeds and rotten grains in my previous life, and in this life alone, it's not the first time he's met Hongo Masamune.
Because there was no such thing as a regular youth league in Hokkaido, Hongo was also playing the soft ball league at that time.
When he was in middle school, he faced off against Sawamura Eijun twice.
The first time was when Eijun Sawamura was in the second grade, when Akagi Junior High School was a dark horse and entered the national competition for the first time.
In the finals, Masamune Hongo was directly beaten by Akagi Middle School because of his lack of physical strength.
This made his dream of dominating the country go down the drain.
The following year, in the semi-finals of the national competition, Masamune Hongo met Eijun Sawamura for the second time.
It was really a battle of dragons and tigers, and Hongo, who had adapted to the summer heat in Tokyo, performed very well.
It wasn't until the Ghasai that Sawamura Sakamura took him down.
Masamune Hongo's two losses to Eijun Sawamura were not a matter of skill, but of physical strength.
This is more humiliating than losing to Sawamura Eijun in terms of ball skills, which makes Hongo feel even more humiliating.
He was a rural Hokkaido, and he lost physically to Sawamura Eijun, a rural Nagano.
It's incredible!
Seriously calculated, the two also have class hatred.
It's just that compared to Sawamura Eusune, Hongo Masamune has always been the losing side. To put it mildly, throughout his middle school years, he lived in the huge shadow of Sawamura Eijun.
"Win all the way, I'm looking forward to fighting you again!"
Hongo is a typical stuffy gourd, and if Sawamura Eijun doesn't take the initiative to speak, Hongo probably won't be able to say a word.
After saying that they hadn't seen each other for a long time, the two of them were stunned for more than ten seconds before Sawamura spoke.
"I will!"
Hongo has inherited his past character, and he cherishes words like gold.
"Okay, I'll wait."
Sawamura said with a smile.
I just solved the trouble of Akutsu, and now I have met my old rival Hongo Masamune.
To be honest, none of the opponents on Koshien are worry-free.
The two didn't say a few words and went their separate ways.
Kuramochi came up and asked Sawamura with a gossipy face.
"Do you know each other?"
"Count yourself as acquaintance!"
"What's his position?"
"Pitcher!"
"How's the strength?"
Kuramochi asked like a cannon, not giving people the slightest chance to relax.
Sawamura smiled bitterly and said.
"Do you know about Akutsu just now?"
Faced with this question, Kurachi's face changed suddenly.
In this game, he faced off with Akutsu several times, but all of them were in vain.
At this time, Kuramochi's heart was holding back a fire, and when he heard that Sawamura's pot was not opened, he immediately decided to exchange feelings with his junior brother.
"Hongo's strength is probably equivalent to two Akutsu!"
What the?
The evaluation given by Sawamura Eijun is too high, at this time, not only Kurachi, but also the other friends in front of Qingdao High School also turned their heads in shock and looked at Sawamura intently.
