Chapter 214: Autumn Yamato National Style (500 Orders and Updates)
pps: It's so shameless, the bear wants to open, where else do you have any recommendations, what monthly passes? It is added according to the order. In the future, we will add more, and people may think that we are the kind of big guy who orders 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. Thinking about it like this, I'm inexplicably a little excited.
Even though it was during the holidays, the fat headmaster did not disappoint Sawamura Eijun.
Before I entered the cafeteria, the smell wafted out of the cafeteria.
"Knock knock!"
Just got off the bus, after a simple wash, the players rushed to the cafeteria.
As the saying goes, the people live on food. The world is big, and the food is the biggest.
Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon.
Well, that's a long way off.
All in all, after a morning of competition, two hours of interviews, plus a few hours of driving.
The players' stomachs were already hungry.
Although I got a bowl of boxed lunches in the middle, who would eat this bowl of boxed lunches when I knew that there would be a big meal at night?
Even the No. 1 Rice Bucket Zengzi Senior of Qingdao High School, when he saw the box lunch, he only picked up two boxes and paddled his stomach.
Now that the real feast is up, the players are naturally unceremoniously chunky.
It can be seen that the chubby principal and dean of students still put a lot of thought into this meal, and it is not all face-saving goods.
Not to mention lobsters that are more than a foot long, I even saw several plates of whale meat.
"Isn't it forbidden to hunt whale meat for a long time?"
Masuko said as she put the slices of meat on her plate.
Sawamura swallowed a rare saliva, and also unceremoniously stretched out his chopsticks and sandwiched the fish fillets onto his plate.
Whales are illegal in most countries, and on the other side of the ocean, there is no whale meat in their supermarkets.
Although Sawamura Eisumi also feels that killing whales is a bit unethical. But compared to the delicious taste, this little pity is nothing.
It's like a lot of people like to eat all kinds of meat. When they see these animals being killed, they can't bear it. But when it comes to actually eating, who cares about this?
When you eat pork, do you think of the scene of the butcher slaughtering the pig?
For the same reason, eating whales is already commonplace in this country, and whale meat is sold in most large supermarkets.
The delicious dishes prepared by the fat principal and the dean of education were all digested into their stomachs by the contestants of Qingdao High School in the way of cow chewing peonies.
After eating, there is another celebration party, and in the evening it is a banquet.
All in all, very welcoming!
It wasn't until after 9 p.m. that all the festivities were over.
For the players of Seido High School, in addition to the fame after that, all the processes of their Koshien this year have been completely over.
"The third-year players don't have to move out of the dormitory in a hurry, and I plan to let the third-year players play in the national sports competition, and the 12th-year players will not participate. During this time, the third-year players concentrate on Court B to practice, and Court A is reserved for the new first team. ”
It was only after all the celebrations had been over that Superintendent Kataoka said this.
The players, who were already ready to part, were invariably greatly relieved.
Although I have heard this saying for a long time, as long as the team makes it to Koshien, this happiness will continue. But for the current players of Seido High School, this is a new experience for them.
As for the composition of the new team, it was directly after the start of the school year.
Speaking of which, there is no way to do it, the players have already won the Koshien championship, and at this time, whether it is the school or the baseball team, there is no reason to force everyone to continue practicing.
Clothes do not return to their hometowns, such as brocade clothes at night.
For the Seido High School players, if they don't go back to their hometowns, then their happiness of winning the national championship will be much lower.
In this regard, Superintendent Kataoka did not particularly agree.
But Takashima's words convinced him.
"It's August 22nd, and school starts on September 1st."
If you say anything superfluous, Takashima didn't say a word.
But Superintendent Kataoka still understood what Takashima meant. The contestants have all won Koshien, so you can't help but give them a holiday. Not to mention, most of the Seido High School players are recruited from all over the country, and it is not as convenient for them to go home as the players in the Tokyo area.
In total, there are only a few days, and if you take a few more days off and forcibly recruit the players, the effect may not be good.
"I will come to school on the evening of August 30th, train for a day on the 31st, and start school on September 1st."
In the end, Kataoka gave in and asked the players to report to the dormitory by the evening of August 30.
"Hooray!"
For this decision, the vast majority of the players of Qingdao High School are still very supportive.
When they went back at night, they didn't lie down and sleep directly, but packed their luggage and discussed the matter of going home with great interest.
As for the third-year contestants, the decision to go home was given up en masse. For them, the time they can play baseball together is getting less and less. Even if you pinch your fingers, there are only two months left to complete the calculation.
Let's just let them enjoy the last two months together.
As the overlord of the country, Qingdao High School does not want to be embarrassed when the national body is played.
This is something that is difficult for other Seido High School players to help. The school starts in September, a month later, and they will start their journey for the fall competition.
At that time, there were more than 260 baseball teams from colleges and universities throughout Tokyo, including East Tokyo and West Tokyo.
The schools will compete for one of the 32 qualifying spots.
The new team has been honing for more than a month. During this time, Superintendent Kataoka may have to rack his brains just to form a team of players, let alone form a fighting force.
There are pros and cons to everything, and the longer you walk in Koshien, the less time you'll have to prepare when the fall tournament begins.
Like Qingdao High School, it will be dark all the way to the end, in addition to the competition, there will be a lot of twists and turns in the middle.
They have even less time to prepare.
This will undoubtedly become a big hidden danger.
Speaking of which, this is also a happy trouble.
When Supervisor Kataoka and Coach Ochiai were still playing Koshien games, they were already thinking about it.
After the two discussed, they finally had some countermeasures.
According to Kataoka's idea, the players should not take a holiday, and hurry up to start integrating the team and actively prepare for the game.
But this kind of strong man is difficult. It's not that he said it, it's not human at all.
Holding the banner of combining work and rest, at the strong request of Minister Ota, Vice Minister Takashima Rei, Coach Ochiai, Fat Principal, and Director of Education.
Superintendent Kataoka reluctantly passed the decision to take a holiday.
So on the morning of August 23rd, the baseball team of Qingdao High School officially had a holiday.
