"Yuki, today I hope that you will be able to enjoy this activity like an ordinary person without using abilities from outside this body."

When following Chun Yue into the baseball field, Chu Xuan, who was at the back of the team, stopped and said to Youxi in a voice that was as smooth and uninhibited as ever.

“……”

Yuki, who was like his shadow, immediately stopped, stared at him without blinking for more than ten seconds, and then asked in a flat voice that was so boring that he would immediately forget after just three seconds of listening:

"Is this an order?"

Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly, and replied very seriously:

"It's an order, and it's my personal expectation."

"Understood."

Yuki blinked and replied almost without thinking.

She agreed so readily, but it made people wonder if this girl, who was more like a robot than Chu Xuan, really understood the deep meaning of Chu Xuan's words?

Or did she only carry out the order because of the order?

"Hurry up! What are you two still rubbing over there? Do you want to take the soil from the stadium home?

Then it's not too late for us to make it all the way to Koshien!

Now I'm going to arrange the strike order and the garrison position! ”

Chun Yue shouted unashamedly in the distance, provoking their opponent in this game to look over here.

Koshien High School Baseball Tournament is a top-level school event that the whole school has been paying attention to, and the dream of high school boys who are sweating and even tears on the practice field is to bring a bag of dirt from the court home from Koshien.

However, in each region, only one school that wins the preliminary round in the preliminary round can enter the finals held in Koshien every year, and for the vast majority of high school baseball players, what they chase year after year is just a distant dream.

- It's like the "Ueuehara Pirates" team that the SOS team will face in this game.

This is the baseball club of a nearby university, and they are very serious even in the simple practice before the game, and they also shout a few times with great momentum from time to time, and they are the team that really comes to win.

But even the members of such a serious baseball team may have never entered Koshien during their three years of high school, let alone the SOS team that is not qualified to represent Peking High School at all.

"Come on, pick a lot."

When Chu Xuan and Youxi came over, Chun Yue sent two pieces of paper with Amitabha signs drawn like many ladders connected together.

"Am I not a pitcher and a fourth batter."

Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses and said as if he took it for granted.

But Chun Yue raised his eyebrows and taught him incredibly:

"What?

I don't remember ever promising you that.

I use a completely ** method to determine the order and position, and the ancient Greeks used this way to elect politicians! ”

Chun Yue's speech was too strange that even the void didn't bother to complain, Chu Xuan pointed to the Amitabha drawn on the paper with an expressionless face, and asked lightly:

"So, why are there only eight sticks on both sheets?"

"Because I'm in charge of pitching and batting first."

Chun Yue replied confidently, and then directly chose a stick for Chu Xuan with some impatience, so the rest of the one was naturally Youxi.

This utter hypocrite!

If she didn't come to China to be a politician, she was really wronged by her talent.

In the end, under the ** arrangement that made no one have anything to say, the strike order and garrison position of the SOS regiment were finally decided.

First bat, pitcher: Haru Suzumiya.

Second bat, right fielder: Minoru Asahina.

The third bat, the backbone: Yuki Nagato.

Fourth baseman and second baseman: Chu Xuan.

Fifth bat, left fielder: virtual sister.

Sixth stick, catcher: Kazuki Guquan.

Seventh baseman, first baseman: Void.

Eighth baseman, third baseman: Tsuruya.

Ninth bat, guerrilla: Mori Yuansheng.

"Look, as you wish, the fourth stick will be handed to you."

Chun Yue patted Chu Xuan's shoulder without blushing, and said to him earnestly.

Then she turned around and lined everyone up, arranging the tactics like the coach of the team:

"Listen, first of all, get on base anyway.

Once on base, steal the base before the pitcher can make the third pitch.

If it's a good ball, the batter has to swing the bat, and the bad ball has to be left alone.

Simple, right? According to my estimates, we have to get at least three points in a game. ”

Chun Yue said confidently, I don't know if she has seen "The Art of War", "know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles".

Or does Chun Yue really think that he can defeat his opponent by relying on this kind of ragtag army within a ragtag army?

That has to be said, the intuition of the spring is ...... It's still very accurate.

After saluting each other, Haru, as the first baton of the first attacker, stood in the strike zone, wearing a second-hand white helmet borrowed from the operation committee.

The rest of the SOS team, except for the second batter who was waiting in the batter's preparation area, all sat in the bench to cheer for the batters with the yellow megaphone of nine people brought by Chun Yu.

"Boom!"

On the first ball, the opponent's pitcher threw a straight ball that was not particularly fast because of his mercy, but Haru said that he hit a second home run mercilessly, which drew cheers from the virtual girl and Tsuruya, and the opposing players all showed shocked expressions.

However, this is not a big deal for Haru, if there are nine Haru-level players, then even if you win in Koshien, it will probably be a breeze.

"This pitcher is nothing special, follow in my footsteps!"

Standing on second base, Chun Yue got carried away and shouted at everyone, but the result seemed to make the opponent's pitcher angry, and he no longer showed mercy to his subordinates because the opponent was a girl.

As a result, the second stick of the real Jiuru didn't even swing the stick, and was directly knocked out of the game, which made Chun Yue very dissatisfied.

“……”

Yuxi, who was the third to hit the ball, silently glanced at Chu Xuan, who was walking towards the batter's preparation area, before heading to the strike zone, and Chu Xuan nodded to her imperceptibly.

"Qiang ——!"

Although the opposing pitcher was a little more vigilant because Yuki was wearing a formal baseball team uniform, he still didn't expect that this unusually petite, overly fair skin due to the lack of sunlight, and a very delicate and quiet looking girl would be able to hit a home run - and fly straight off the field high and far.

"Yay! It's really worthy of hope, and the next two points will be in hand!

One more point! Chu Xuan, don't let me down, you're the fourth batter! ”

After Chun Yue ran back to home plate excitedly, he was waiting next to home plate Youxi, who was still expressionless even if he hit a home run, and ran back unhurriedly, and at the same time slapped Chu Xuan's back vigorously to vent his excitement overflowing in his chest.

"Don't worry, I haven't let you down once so far, have I?"

Chu Xuan said lightly to the elated Chun Yue, and then stood in the strike zone with a blank face, holding the ground with a bat, and looking at the other party's somewhat lost pitcher with reflective glasses.

Xuzi, who was sitting in the team seat, saw Chu Xuan's majestic appearance, and his heart beat violently very uncontrollably.

She couldn't help but widen her eyes, her light pink lips opened slightly, and she looked at Chu Xuan's heroic posture with some distraction, and even forgot to use tsundere to hide her true mood.

"Don't you need to call a timeout?"

When the opponent's pitcher absentmindedly put on a pitching pose, Chu Xuan still had no intention of hitting the ball, but reminded the opponent's catcher in a cool tone.

- Although that was just Chu Xuan's normal tone, in the eyes of the other party's catcher, he probably felt that Chu Xuan looked down on their team that had won the championship in this tournament for three consecutive years.

But think about it, it's really hard to look down on a team that will be hit by two little girls who don't have special baseball training at a glance and hit a home run one after another.

"Temporary, pause!"

The catcher called a timeout in a kind way, and then ran to the pitcher and exchanged a few words with him - probably using Chu Xuan's attitude to motivate the pitcher in turn.

It was clear that his ploy had succeeded.

Not only did the pitcher refocus, but there was also a raging flame in his eyes, and he should have made up his mind to wash away the humiliation he had suffered on Chu Xuan.

After the game resumed, Chu Xuan put on a very standard striking stance, and his body seemed to exude a trace of coldness, which made both the catcher and the referee look at him in surprise.

The pitcher on the other side was probably the one who felt it the most, and for a moment he even felt as if he was frozen by the cold light reflected on Chu Xuan's glasses, and even the flames in his eyes were frozen together.

However, this should be just his delusion.

The frustrated pitcher threw the first pitch a little hesitantly, but then he shouted "bad" in his heart.

This kind of ball is an easy long shot even if it is placed in front of the average amateur hitter, and for a strong batter with a fourth base...... The pitcher had almost closed his eyes, but the expected crisp sound was never heard, except for the muffled sound of a baseball entering the catcher's glove, which he was all too familiar to hear.

The pitcher looked up in surprise and found that Chu Xuan was still maintaining that imposing batting posture and did not swing the batting at all.

"Is that disdain to play that ball?

So, let's take the fastest ball of my life! ”

The palpitating pitcher felt the anger in his chest be rekindled, and a raging flame seemed to appear around his body, and he threw the sharpest straight ball he had ever made with all his strength!
