CHAPTER XXXI
"What, Rong Chun was selected for the first army bench? It's really fake, after I told everyone, they were all happy as if they had been chosen. also said that I knew that Xiao Rong was indeed our hero. As long as you make it all the way through high school, we'll be there for you. Come on, Rong Chun!! ”
Rong Chun, who was obsessed with studying, received a text message from Wakana, and thinking of what had happened recently, Rong Chun laughed and began to reply word by word.
Kanemaru on the other side saw the lazy Rong Chun, pouted and said,
"What's the matter, you're done?"
"No, no, no, not yet, I just received a text message from my friends in my hometown."
"Oh ~ Nagano Prefecture's girlfriend ah....."
"Huh? No, who are you listening to nonsense? ”
Hearing this, Rong Chun jumped up like a fried cat, glared at Kanemaru and asked,
"The second-year seniors in the same dormitory said that it was the first-hand reliable information that Kuramochi's seniors told him."
"I knew it was that guy!"
Jin Maru, who didn't know what Rong Chun was angry about, was a little envious, jealous and hateful, after all, not everyone has a childhood sweetheart.
In addition to the two pitchers in the first grade, the other seniors are also working very hard in training, Izawaki's swing is still imposing, and the imaginary practice of forming a captain is still very confusing, and under the guidance of Kataoka Superintendent, he understands that even if the amplitude of the swing is reduced, the power of the gun barrel will not be reduced. And the Ominato Haruichi who scared all the seniors with a very high strike rate.
Over time, Rong Chun's body also fully recovered, and he also joined the training of the pitcher, and began to try to simulate the pitching of Narumiya, and for this reason, he found two seniors who were good at sliding and finger fork to train together.
Then one afternoon, Rong Chun and two other seniors stood on the pitcher's hill together. The members of the First Army, including Shibuya and Kominato, everyone went on the field to fight according to the arrangement of the sticks. And Chris and Miyuki take turns receiving and matching the ball.
Among them, the straight ball and the speed ball are mainly responsible for Rong Chun, although the ball can be clearly divided according to the different pitchers, but under the guidance of the catcher, the hitters are still a little confused, not to mention the straight ball mixed with different changes is even more difficult to play.
At this time, Qingdao can once again clearly feel how strong their opponent is, and there is more than one such strong opponent in their division, and it is so difficult to set foot on the stage of Koshien.
After all, striking practice is not the main activity, because they are not a team that simply exists to defeat Narumiya. Just when the basic training of the valley was about to get impatient and erupt, senior Chris finally agreed to let him enter the cowshed.
After a test throw, Shibuyu looked at Miyuki expectantly, and Miyuki shook his head,
"There's no progress at all.,Or don't shoot.,Have you forgotten the time to play against Osaka Kiryu?,If you push too hard, you can't shoot well,"
Miyuki threw the baseball back to Shibuyani, and continued,
"All in all, you report the ball low, just shoot well. Now all you need is endurance to control and pitch. ”
Remembering that his subject was stamina and ball control, he tried to throw the ball low again, and this time the baseball got into Miyuki's glove with a good path.
'That ball is very good at running, can it just take a little bit of strength?' ’
"Good ball, don't forget how you felt."
Seeing that the two of them were on the right track, Chris stopped looking at him here, and Rong Chun and Tanbo on the other side looked at him with bright eyes for a long time.
"Ahhhh Miracle, Kanemaru, you see I've passed it all. ”
Kanemaru looked at the report card in his hand and felt a little incredible, obviously he had better grades when he was reviewing, why did he fly all the low-altitude during the exam.
Rong Chun didn't feel that way at all, but was crying with joy over his rare results. Other friends also congratulated Rong Chun on his success, and Rong Chun accepted all those praises tremblingly.
And the subtani, who paid too much attention to baseball and gave up saving his studies, watched his failing report card turn to stone, and his companion Kominato Haruichi had to comfort him and say,
"Don't worry, there will be a make-up exam before the tournament starts."
'Didn't even pass the final exam?' ’
The midterm exam passed in the joy of Rong Chun and the sorrow of the valley. And then they finally had that day----- the day of the pre-tournament number distribution.
"Now I will hand out the back numbers, and those whose names are called will come to the front in order. The first is the back number one, Koichiro Tanba. ”
Hearing his name, Tamba didn't feel emotional, he strode up to the overseer, took the trump card from the overseer's hand, turned around and looked at the three pitcher juniors in the first army, and then resolutely returned to the group.
'This time I'll be the real trump card.' ’
"No. 2 Yukichiya."
Yu Xing knew that sending him the second number two this time was not that his strength must be stronger than Chris's seniors, just because Chris's seniors returned to the team after injury, although their strength was strong, but in order to protect Chris's seniors, not to let him be too tired and set up, this time the battle for the catcher, Yu Xing still failed to really compete with Chris's seniors.
"No. 3 Yuki Tetsuya."
"Yes, I'll try."
"Number 4, Ryosuke Kominato."
"Yes."
"No. 5 Zengzi Tho."
"Yes. Coo-goo'''"
"Yoichi No. 6."
"Thank you, Coach!"
"No. 7 Ichiro Sakai"
"Yes."
"Jun Izashaki No. 8"
"Look at me!"
"Kenjiro Hakushu No. 9"
"I'll do my best."
"Kenshi No. 10 Kawakami."
"Yes."
"Eleven...... Eijun Sawamura! ”
Hearing his name, Rong Chun suddenly rushed out, stood in front of the superintendent, and when he took the number bib in the superintendent's hand, his hand was still a little trembling.
"Twelve, Takigawa Chris Yu."
Chris smiled and took the bib from the substitute catcher from the supervisor's hand, although a little unwilling, but it was the best result to be able to return to the field and play side by side with everyone.
"No. 13 Menda Shoaki."
"Yes."
"Number fourteen, Fumiya Kusunoki."
"Yes."
"Keisuke Miyauchi No. 15"
"Yes."
"No. 16 Shin Tanaka"
"Yes."
"No. 17 Naoki Endo"
"Yes."
"Kunio Yamazaki 18."
"Yes."
"The nineteenth descends to the valley."
The overseer looked at the valley who came to take the back number, stared at him for a while, and said,
"Remember to work hard for the retake."
In a word, the sunken valley did not pay attention to his back number, and returned to his position darkly, but Rong Chun glanced at it secretly, and then secretly thought,
'I'm the eleventh, the nineteenth of the valley, or I'm stronger. ’
"Twenty Kominato Spring City."
I'm already very happy to be able to enter the first army and get the back number.,As for whether it's the end, he doesn't care too much.,
This year is the first and last opportunity for our brothers to enter Koshien together, so we must make the most of it. ’
