Chapter Thirty-Nine: Little Wolf Cub
Superintendent Kataoka left, but the boys from the Seido High School baseball club in the conference room didn't leave for a while.
They all looked at Wang Xi curiously, and couldn't guess what Superintendent Kataoka had taken a fancy to each other?
This guy can't be Superintendent Kataoka's own son left outside, right?
If that's not the case, it's hard to explain everything in front of you. Superintendent Kataoka is too serious for Wang Xi, and on occasions like tomorrow, even if Sawamura Eijun doesn't play directly, it should be Shibuyani or Kawakami who will be sent to play.
How can a newcomer compete for the championship in the finals for Seido High School?
Superintendent Kataoka is Chinese New Year's Eve years old this year, and Wang Xi is 15 years old this year.
Age makes sense......
"What the hell?"
Wang Xi was a little embarrassed to be looked at by the friends around him, and it was really stressful to be stared at by so many seniors.
As the senior in the same dormitory, Sawamura Rongchun naturally wants to stand up for his elementary school brother.
He took the initiative to stand up and patted Wang Xi on the shoulder.
"Don't bother with these guys around you, their brains are dirty! Everything in front of you is what you deserve, and you have earned it with your performance. If you feel uneasy in your heart, take action to repay the overseer! ”
"Yes!"
Wang Xi glanced at Sawamura Rongchun gratefully.
Originally, before joining Seido High School, he thought that a player with the status of Sawamura Eijun must be arrogant. I didn't expect that when I actually came into contact, it was not like that at all.
Sawamura Eijun's personality is very good, especially for the junior brother, which is even more caring.
It's just like the angel of legend.
It's really lucky to have such a senior in a big team.
"Who does you say is dirty inside!"
Kuramochi tilted his neck and looked at Sawamura Eijun.
Sawamura glared back unceremoniously.
"Who was dirty in his heart just now, thinking about framing him?"
After all, Kuramochi's skin is not thick to the extent of the city wall, and he feels embarrassed to be exposed by Sawamura Eijun in person.
Snorted and took the initiative to leave.
Sawamura also snorted dissatisfied.
This brother of his own, pits his younger brother, and he is never soft-hearted.
I still remember the year I broke into the big league in my previous life and just came back.
Drink with Kurachi.
was stunned by him......
At that time, Sawamura Eijun hated it so much that the roots of his teeth itched, but when he thought about it later, it became a good memory.
Aren't friends just helping each other and cheating each other!
Everyone left in a sparse manner, and when they left, many people secretly glanced at Wang Xi.
From their standpoint, what Sawamura Eijun said was not to be heard.
But the word of loyalty is good for the ear.
Even if they felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts, they had to admit that what Sawamura Rongjun said was very reasonable.
The reason why Wang Xi got the weight of Superintendent Kataoka was that he deserved it, and his previous performance was worthy of Superintendent Kataoka's weight.
Underneath a dimly lit bridge hole.
The new Okumura is swinging the bat in his hand.
Don't look at the young man who is like a stuffy gourd on weekdays, but his ambitions are quite high. He is determined to take the position of Seido High School's main catcher from him before Yukiichi leaves the team.
Just because of his talent as a catcher, Okumura is not very convinced by Yukiichi.
He believes that the gap between the two is not unbridgeable.
But there was one thing that was his fatal wound.
In addition to being the main catcher of Seichi High School, Yukiichi is also the fourth baton of Seido High School.
If he wants to completely replace Miyuki Kazuya's position, it is not enough to rely on his skills as a catcher, and he also needs to strengthen his striking strength.
Okumura's striking strength is still very good. But people should be damned compared to people, and goods should be thrown away, compared with several other freshmen, his strength in this blow is not eye-catching.
First of all, the newcomer Wang Xi!
That guy has his own champion aura, and his striking strength is quite good. Not to mention the training on weekdays, I have already put on a good performance on the court. Not only did he perform well against the fish belly team, but even when he played against the top national giants such as the city's top high school, he also showed good strength in the face of the country's top pitcher Tianjiu Guangsheng!
When the new team is formed, he may be able to rely on this performance to win the back number of the main force.
That is, one of the 1st to 9th.
The other is that the newcomers form a shoji!
His performance was equally impressive, and he had already scored a home run on behalf of the freshmen.
Now Qingdao High School lacks strong fighting, and although it is not as practical as Wang Xi, it has gradually found its place in the first army and established its foothold.
There are others like Yui, who has now joined the Second Army to participate in training, and now remains in the Third Army like him......
Their striking strength is greater than that of Okumura.
Compared with the freshmen, he couldn't even rank ahead. Not to mention the comparison to the old students of the Qingdao High School baseball team.
"If you want to compete for the back number of the main catcher, you must hone your striking strength!"
It was with this determination that Okumura kept practicing swinging the bat.
After more than ten minutes, Takuma, who was inseparable from him, rushed over.
"Hey, Guangzhou, I have a big news that you want to hear?"
Okumura shook his head and continued practicing.
He knew his friend too well, and if he didn't find someone to talk to, this guy would definitely suffocate there.
He can't hide any secrets in his heart, and he will definitely tell them immediately.
Sure enough, I saw that Okumura didn't take a stubble. Tuoma couldn't help it first.
He raised his voice excitedly.
"You know what? Wang Xi, that guy, will start tomorrow! Haven't you always been interested in that guy's pitching, tomorrow might be a good opportunity! ”
Tuoma said with great interest.
Okumura had a noncommittal expression.
"Then again, how could you be interested in that guy's pitching? Although that guy's strength is indeed quite strong, but looking at his pitching, it doesn't seem to be profound, right? Compared with Senior Sawamura and Senior Xiaotani, the difference is not half a star. ”
Okumura gave his friend a cold look.
"Don't look at me like an idiot, or I'll turn my face!"
Topa said.
Okumura turned his head and muttered as he practiced swinging his stick.
"Have you seen last year's World Series?"
"After seeing it, Wang Xi was rated as the most valuable player!"
"But you don't notice, there's a very interesting message in there."
"What's the message?"
"Speedball Killer!"
"What do you mean?"
"Although Wang Xi's pitching looks very good, his ball speed is not the most amazing in the same age group. The fastest ball speed in the last World Series was Sora Igarashi. But his nickname is the Great Samurai, and it has nothing to do with ball speed. On the contrary, Wang Xi, whose ball speed is not as fast as him, is known as a speedball killer......"
Takuma is not stupid, Okumura has already said it so clearly, if he still can't understand it, then he is really an idiot.
"You mean?"
"This guy must be hiding something!"
"Orientation!"
Topa reacted immediately.
"Originally, he might have thought so, but now I'm afraid it won't! Or should I say that it is not necessary. ”
"What do you mean?"
"He has a more suitable stage and a better opportunity!"
The final of the Tokyo Spring Contest.
This game is not only for the friends of the Seido High School Baseball Club, but also for the entire Tokyo High School Baseball community.
It's not a trivial matter.
Its result will even directly affect the future direction of the Kanto Tournament.
Even if it is the usual practice, the two teams from Tokyo will not fight too badly, and it is likely that they will all come off the bench.
But even if it's a game with all the substitutes, there is value in scouting.
This is a guy who comes on both sides, and they are both substitutes, so they have a stronger tactical execution.
On the contrary, you can better see the tactics and style of this team.
In such a game, it is bound to attract a lot of professional scouts and scouts.
The attention is definitely not small.
To be able to put on a good performance in such a game.
Wang Xi doesn't have to wait for the welcome game to be a blockbuster.
"Originally, I thought we were the only ones who thought that far ahead, but now it doesn't seem like that."
Tuoma shook his head with emotion.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that even Wang Xi, who had already joined the first army, was quietly preparing for the welcome game.
I don't know how many guys in private plan to do so.
According to the seniors, the orientation tournament at Seido High School is very important.
It will even determine to some extent whether or not you are likely to make it to the first team before the summer tournament begins.
According to the past practice of Qingdao High School, all players who have performed well in the orientation match will generally be promoted to the second team, and may even be directly promoted to the first team.
Only when you join the Second Army can you be regarded as standing on the starting line of the competition for the back number.
If you can't even join the second army in the orientation match......
We're sorry, but you're not going to be promoted to the first team before the summer tournament.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of the orientation competition is to test the results of the new students.
See if you have potential, if you have potential, you will be promoted, and if you have no potential, you will naturally continue to exercise.
There are a lot of smart freshmen in Qingdao High School this year, and these people have already inquired about the inside story of the Qingdao High School Orientation Tournament in advance.
So I've been preparing for this assessment for a long time!
Okumura and Takuma are just two of them.
"Now the things in the first army are not what we should care about, let's concentrate on honing our skills! It's gold that always shines, and it's time for the orientation game......"
Okumura took the initiative to speak.
Takuma next to him also took out the bat in his hand and practiced with Okumura.
During this period, the third-year players and some first-year freshmen trained very hard.
On the contrary, as the mainstay of the second grade, he has been relatively lazy recently, except for three or two big cats and kittens, no one insists on training.
