Chapter 65: Picnic
The next morning, the snow was gone.
The gray sky outside the window gives a feeling of oppression.
After a night's rest, Yue Longze's spirit recovered a lot, his bearded face looked like an uncle, and the whole person looked a lot more vicissitudes.
I went to work at the kendo gym as usual, and my life returned to peace.
Yue Ryuze was already thinking about quitting his job at the gym after a while, and once he caught the guy in the TPC who was trying to control the power of the giant, he would immediately contact Dagu and Masaki Keigo and ask them to help him leave.
Yue Longze is almost nine percent sure that he will be able to leave this plane and plane.

"Coach Aze, do you like picnics?"
In the Beichen Yidaoliu Kendo Hall, the male student Masano Koichi asked Yue Longze.
"Picnic?"
Yue Longze looked at the somewhat gloomy sky outside the window, and smiled at Masano Hao, "I don't like it very much, it's better to eat at home!" β
"That's right."
Koichi Masano touched his head, his face looked a little lost, "Hara Xiangben still wants Coach Aze to go to the picnic together!" β
"You've said so, so can I still go?"
Yue Ryuze hammered Koichi Masano on the shoulder, he and these students are not much different in age, but they still have a common language.
"But you have to prepare the tools and other things yourself, and I'm only responsible for providing the ingredients and most importantly - eating!"
"Haha, no problem!"
Masano Hao put his right hand on Yue Longze's shoulder, and then patted his chest and laughed arrogantly, "In short, it will make Coach Aze comfortable!" β
βββββββ
In the afternoon, everyone collectively went to ask for leave for the curator Chiba Masao, and in the face of everyone's collective leave, Chiba Masao was also happy and directly approved everyone's leave.
After getting the approval of Masao Chiba, Koshitakawa went to buy a lot of ingredients together with Yoshida and Masako Haneda, while Koichi Masano and his elder brother Shuichi Minamino and Sonoko Aoki were responsible for preparing all kinds of tools needed.
After purchasing, everyone gathered at the kendo hall and set off in unison.
......
The open ground was covered with white snow. There are very few people in this area, and it is a great place to have a picnic.
Because Shuichi Minamino has a driver's license, he drove a white van directly, and the tools and ingredients to be used this time are loaded on the car.
Everyone brought out barbecue grill stools and other things, put the ingredients and seasonings aside, and the happy picnic trip began!
At this time, everyone was not very hungry, and at Yue Longze's suggestion, everyone simply had a snowball fight.
........
"Coach Aze!"
Hearing someone call himself, Yue Longze subconsciously turned around.
"Watch the ball!"
A white round snowball suddenly hit Yue Longze's nose with a snap...
"Yoshida! You guy sneak up on me! β
Yue Ryuzawa pretended to be angry, and then quickly pinched a snowball from the snow to counterattack Yoshida.
"Haha, come and hit me! Coach Aze! β
Yoshida's fat body writhed and ran on the snow.
"See if I don't kill you!"
.........
The snow was filled with everyone's laughter, and the smell of joy seemed to permeate the whole snowfield.
After playing snowball fights for a long time, everyone was a little tired, so I went back to Shuichi Minamino's van and started preparing a delicious barbecue!
....
Winter nights always come quickly, and the sky is a little darker.
Yue Longze happily skewered, two of them went down, and a roasted sausage was gone.
Yue Longze suddenly caught a glimpse of a boy in the distance, wearing baseball gloves and practicing pitching against a large tree that was bent over by snow.
"Is it so hard..."
While speaking, Yue Longze directly grabbed a greasy fat roast chicken leg and began to gulp and pull it up...
Yue Longze nibbled on the chicken leg as he walked towards the boy.
The boy was about thirteen or fourteen years old, and he threw the ball at the tree again and again, but it seemed that he didn't hit the position he wanted to throw every time, but he still threw the ball tirelessly at the tree, and it seemed that he would not stop until he reached the goal.
The boy's face was already covered with sweat, and his face was red.
"Hey, I said you want something to eat!"
After nibbling on the last bite of meat on the chicken thigh, Yue Longze shouted at the boy.
"Not available!"
The boy didn't look at Yue Longze, and still practiced throwing by himself.
"What a stubbornness..."
Yue Longze felt a sense of persistence in the boy at this time.
That kind of attachment is also in me.
Bending down to rub his hands, which had become greasy from holding chicken legs, on the pure white snow, Yue Ryuze walked over to the boy's side.
"Are you trying to hit that position?"
Yue Longze pointed to the center of the top of the tree.
"That's right."
The boy stopped his movements at this time and glanced at Yue Longze.
"Let me try."
After saying that, regardless of whether the boy agreed or not, Yue Longze walked towards the baseball that fell to the ground.
Walking to where the boy was standing with a baseball in his hand, Yue Ryuze smiled at the boy.
"Whew!"
The baseball flew out and drew a straight line in the air.
"Bang."
The baseball hits the target, shaking the snow from the tree and falling down.
"Looks like a hit!"
Yue Longze laughed loudly, and then ran to pick up the ball.
"Are you good at baseball?"
The boy's big bright eyes sparkled with curiosity.
"I don't know baseball."
Yue Longze scratched his head, "I just focused on the ball." β
"Liar..."
The boy's face was full of disbelief.
"I'll vote for you again."
The baseball was thrown again, and once again it hit the target with unmistakable accuracy.
"Do you think I shoot like a baseball guy?"
Yue Longze trotted over again to pick up the ball.
"Okay, I believe you."
The boy stared at Yue Longze's eyes for a while, and said, "But you're so powerful, big brother!" β
.....
The two began to talk happily.
It was already completely dark, and the streetlights on the side of the road lit up, and began to dispel the coldness of the cold night with its faint light.
Koshiryuzawa and the boy walked towards the place where the picnic took place, which was Shuichi Minamino's van.
.....
"So you're trying to surpass your father..."
Yue Longze said.
"My father was not only a great baseball player, but he was also a great astronaut."
Speaking of this, there was a look of pride in the boy's eyes.
Proud of your father.
"And what is your dream, or goal?"
Yue Longze looked at the boy who was only shoulder-high and asked.
"Be a great astronaut like my father! No! It's to surpass my father and become an even better astronaut! β
There was a look of determination on the boy's face, and he vowed to surpass his father!
"It's a pity that my father is no longer there..."
The boy hung his head in frustration again, and his father disappeared into the vast universe during a flight, and was known as the man who disappeared into the light.
Yue Longze touched the boy's head and said, "That's it... Then you have to work harder! β
"By the way, after talking about it for so long, I still don't know your name!"
Yue Ryuze wanted to change the subject, not wanting the boy to be immersed in sad emotions.
"My name is Yue Longze, what is your name?"
Yue Longze stretched out his right hand and looked at the boy with a grin.
The boy also smiled and stretched out his right hand to hold Yue Longze's right hand, "We will be friends in the future!" β
Then he cleared his throat exaggeratedly.
"Listen! My name isβ"
The boy withdrew his right hand, then put his hands behind his back with a smug look on his face.
"Asuka - letter!"
