Chapter 62: The Secret
The interactive activity planned by Sawamura Eijun still caused some commotion within the baseball club of Qingdao High School.
It is said that the baseball club of 120 people, occasionally there are a few fewer people, and everyone will not be noticed. What's more, it's not training time now, and even if you practice, everyone will find their own place.
But who made these people shine brighter than the other.
Especially the pitchers and catchers in the team.
"I said, what did you do before?"
In Tuoma's eyes, the fire of gossip burned brightly.
Okumura, who had always been inseparable from him, suddenly disappeared.
In addition, the main catcher and ace pitcher on the team are not there......
Later, when I inquired, the better pitchers and catchers on the team were all gone. Especially a couple of first-year freshmen.
If that's the case, Tuoma can't find out that there's a cat here, then he's really a fool.
Okumura had a look of ignorance.
"If you don't confess, we'll break up!"
Even Takuma, who was accustomed to Okumura's personality, felt unbearable at this time, and threatened angrily.
Okumura didn't take it seriously at all, twisted his head, and continued to walk forward.
After two or three minutes, Takuma's figure caught up.
"Haven't you already broken off your relationship?"
Hearing his friend's inquiry, Tuo Ma Tian said shamelessly.
"Yes, we broke off before, and now we are reconciled again."
Okumura shook his head helplessly.
He has nothing to do with Tuoma with such a character. Having said that, if Takuma wasn't this character, their friendship would probably be difficult to maintain.
"Can't you really say that?"
Through the temptation just now, Tuoma also came to some conclusions.
Okumura nodded.
"I've already promised Sawamura-senpai and that person!"
After Sawamura Eisun's new change ball was developed, Miyuki made a quick decision and called all the friends on the scene together.
"In the days leading up to the start of the summer tournament, the matter of Eijun Sawamura honing the new change ball is top secret, and it is absolutely not allowed to reveal a word, do you understand?"
The expression on his face was more solemn than ever.
Everyone knows that the next summer competition will be an important process to determine whether Qingdao High School can lead to the road to kingship.
This kind of change ball honed by Eijun Sawamura is likely to become one of the killer features of the Seido High School baseball team.
It must not be revealed before the summer competition.
This is an era of highly developed information.
If someone accidentally slips out, the consequences are also very serious.
There are too many people in the baseball club of Seido High School, 120 people.
These 120 people represent 120 social relationships.
No one can guarantee that these people have nothing to do with people from other schools. If one of them is tricked by someone who is not careful, won't Qingdao High School die unjustly?
Even if this ball is used as a secret killer weapon, it can only surprise one opponent in the summer tournament.
But with the current strength of the Qingdao High School baseball team, even if it can only raid one opponent, it is very good.
After all, there are only a few teams that can really pose a threat to them. Not to mention that they may fight each other before they meet Qingdao High School.
If you count the entire summer competition, there are not many opportunities to actually meet that kind of fierce opponent.
The killer weapon in Sawamura's hand has a very different meaning.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with a few veteran players, they are all very conscious.
Several new players are even like receiving a mission, patting their chests one by one to promise that they will be tight-lipped.
Since then, the relationship between these new players has also become much closer.
They are all people with common secrets.
And people with common secrets meet together, and they are invisibly a lot closer.
"The boss won't hone any new killer features, will he?"
Hirota asked beside Matsumoto.
is worthy of being a personal disciple of Sawamura Rongchun, and he understands Sawamura Rongchun's routines clearly.
Matsumoto didn't say anything, just stared at Hirota in front of him with wide eyes.
"There's no need to put on such a surprised expression, since it's a secret, it's nothing more than a change ball. With so many of you pitchers and catchers working together, what else can you not do? ”
"You ......"
Matsumoto opened his mouth in surprise, but didn't say anything.
Hirota sneered: "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret too." For the public, I am a member of the baseball club of Qingdao High School, and from a personal point of view, I am also a disciple of the master. ”
Matsumoto had no doubts about this.
The two chatted a few more words, and Matsumoto saw Hirota leave and go directly to the dormitory of the boss of Sawamura.
This guy is probably impatient again, and wants to fight with Boss Sawamura head-on.
If you don't die, you won't die.
Although there is nothing wrong with his striking strength being very strong, if he really wants to compare with the boss, then he is too far behind.
Sawamura Eijun's strength is already a completely different dimensional existence for these freshman junior juniors.
With Hirota's current strength, wanting to challenge Sawamura is tantamount to a fool's dream.
This is the end of the meeting between the casting partners, but the secrecy between them continues.
On the other side, others are also working silently.
"Hongchen, do you want to go to the strength training room together in a while?"
A second-year contestant took the initiative to invite Gao Jin next to him.
"Now whether it's a strength trainer or an equipment training room, I'm afraid it has long been occupied by those guys who are being selected by the first army!"
A young man named Takatsu, with his hands in his trouser pockets, stood up.
"What about us, are we going to the place where we trained?"
The boy next to him continued to ask.
"Of course!"
Where no one notices, not even the street lights.
In the baseball club of Qingdao High School, there are still a group of teenagers wielding their bats passionately.
"Although I also feel sorry for those seniors who have reached the third grade and have not yet entered the main selection! But let us second-year players directly promote the first-year newcomers. ”
Still unwilling!
At this moment, Takatsu Hirotomi's eyes were full of unyielding to fate.
On the other side, Kuramori, who had just finished training in the strength training room and was about to return to the dormitory. I saw that there was another person running on the field.
Well?
Such a hard-working figure has only been seen in Sawamura Eijun before!
Amazingly, he became interested in the figure, and then quietly lurked over.
Under the dim streetlights, he finally recognized the figure's appearance.
It's him!
There are more than 60 freshmen in this year's class, and there are not many who can be remembered by Yoichi Kuramochi.
And the teenager in front of him is exactly one of them.
He is a transfer student from the mainland, and his name is Chen Ping.
The stature is not very tall, only 1.7 meters old. The body is not very strong, and it does not have that explosive sense of immediacy.
Baseball skills are even worse ......
Kuraishi was able to remember him mainly because of his speed.
He was the only one of all the freshmen to run 11 seconds in the 100 meters.
"It's pretty hard!"
In Qingdao High School, strength is the first, in addition to strength, the second place is hard work.
Players who can be strict with themselves in private and train hard will also be liked and supported by everyone.
Chen Ping is undoubtedly such a type.
This year's freshmen are also nicknamed the super platinum generation by the classmates of Qingdao High School, and even the strongest generation.
Originally, with Chen Ping's qualifications, it was difficult to stand out in this group of people.
After all, his exposure to baseball was too short, and he didn't have a particularly strong talent.
But now it seems that he is not completely without a chance.
As long as he trains really hard and adds his talent......
"It's too amateurish when I run bases!"
After watching it for more than ten minutes, Kurachi finally couldn't help it and took the initiative to speak.
"Kuramochi senior!"
The sudden sound startled Chen Ping.
It wasn't until I saw Kurachi that I seemed to be relieved and greeted politely.
Kuramochi nodded at him, didn't say anything, and stood on the base bag himself.
"If you want to practice stealing bases, you can't just run to do it. You also have to play psychological warfare with the pitcher, and you also have to keep an eye on the situation on the field. ”
"For example, how can you tell if the other party is missing? How can you tell if the ball you hit will be caught? How can you tell if a pitcher is going to pitch? Combine these situations to make your own judgment. ”
"In addition to that, there's one thing to pay special attention to, and that's the way you start."
"In the process of stealing a base, you can't put your weight on one leg, but you have to switch at any time. What to do when you see that the opponent is ready to contain, and what to do when you see the opponent pitching? ”
……
Kuramochi chattered for nearly half an hour, then laughed and left.
I didn't say a word to Chen Ping during this process.
"This guy!"
Looking at the figure of Kurachi leaving, Chen Ping muttered with a wry smile.
However, he still bent slightly at Kurachi's back.
He was not accustomed to the kind of etiquette of the island country, and in the mainland, this was already a very high respect.
Whatever the purpose of the position is? People are willing to take the time to specifically guide themselves, and Chen Ping is full of gratitude.
Since then, almost every day, Kurachi will give Chen Ping some guidance on running bases, stealing bases, and shorts.
As the contact increased, so did the conversation between the two people.
In private, they even became good friends.
However, in front of everyone, Cangzhi put on an expression of nodding with Chen Ping.
It's a game that Kuramochi had a lot of fun with.
Chen Ping didn't bother to poke it.
Before they knew it, the two also had secrets that needed to be kept.
……
As time went on, the 1/8 finals of Seido High School began.
This time, they originally thought that their opponent would be Xianquan.
Unexpectedly, it was another team in the end.
