Looking at Superintendent Kataoka, who was in tears while bowing to everyone, everyone was moved, and this was the first time they had seen such a Superintendent Kataoka.

Dong Kiyokuni walked in front of Supervisor Kataoka, "If it weren't for the guidance and teachings of the Inspector, who trained with us from morning to night every day, and never gave up on any of the possible players among us, we would not have gotten to this point...... We should be thankful for the overseer's long-term guidance. Higashikiyokuni bowed and expressed his gratitude to Superintendent Kataoka.

Behind Dong Kiyokoku, the others also stood together and bowed to Superintendent Kataoka, "Thank you Overseer for your long-term guidance!" ”

Rei Takashima looked at the scene in front of him, and his face was full of joy that could not be hidden; Minister Ota was so moved by them that tears flowed from his eyes, and he applauded with the female managers next to him.

"Today is a day to congratulate, and I would like to toast you first." Superintendent Kataoka took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on his face, picked up a drink from the table, drank it in one gulp, and then prepared to take Minister Ota and Miss Takashima away.

"Then it's free time, train as usual tomorrow, remember not to make too much trouble!" Before leaving with Minister Ota, Superintendent Kataoka instructed the Seido people.

"Yes!" The Qingdao people responded loudly.

"Cheers!" After Kataoka supervised their departure, Higashi Kiyokuni stood up with a cup full of juice.

Others followed suit, shouting, "We've won!" Cheers! ”

"Behind it is the Meiye Shrine Conference and the Spring Koshien," Dong Qingguo said loudly as the others watched, "The goal is to win!" ”

"Winner! Winning!! The Qingdao crowd shouted.

"Alright, sit down and eat! I'm starving! ”

Putting down the drink in their hands, the hungry crowd began to gobble it up.

After all, they had just finished a race that drained their physical strength, and they had gone through various interviews and the return trip, and they were already starving.

The Autumn Tokyo Metropolitan Convention has ended, and the Meiye Jingu Convention will begin twelve days later, November 12, and the only time they can relax and rest is today.

After filling their hungry bellies with a variety of delicacies, their celebration feast is basically over.

Except for Tetsuya Yuuki and Yagami who were on day, the rest of the people went back to their dormitories and took clean clothes to the bathroom to take a bath.

After Yagami finished his basic training in the afternoon, he left school and went home alone.

"I'm back."

"Welcome back, congratulations on entering Koshien!"

As soon as they walked into the house, they were greeted by their mother, who had returned from work, congratulating them on entering Koshien.

Yagami chatted with his mother, Takako Yakami, for a while, and then returned to his room, sat on a chair, and took out his mobile phone from his backpack.

There are a lot of congratulatory text messages in the mobile phone, Yagami replies to each other one by one, and if the relationship is close, just chat a few more words; If the relationship is estranged, a simple reply can be over.

Thirty minutes later, Yagami put down his phone, took out the clothes he had changed from his backpack after today's game, and went downstairs to take a shower.

After taking a shower, Yagami threw all his dirty clothes into the washing machine and went back to his room to prepare for the next day's homework.

The next day, that is, on the morning of Monday, none of the members of the First Army, who had just won the Tokyo Metropolitan Games in the autumn, were lazy, and all of them got up early and ran in the morning to do basic exercises as usual, much to the relief of Superintendent Kataoka, who also got up early.

At 8:10 a.m., a group of soldiers who had had breakfast gathered around the court and stood in a row, waiting for Superintendent Kataoka's lecture.

Superintendent Kataoka looked at the teenagers standing in a row in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion.

Although he has always been strict with them with the goal of winning the championship, he has already reserved in his mind that they may lose at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in the fall.

But I didn't expect that this group of children came all the way and really persevered to the end, so that Seido won the autumn Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly for the first time in six years.

"This time you were able to win the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in the Autumn, and you did a great job."

Listening to what Superintendent Kataoka said, and recalling the excitement after yesterday's victory, many people had happy expressions on their faces.

Looking at the smiling faces of the teenagers, Superintendent Kataoka didn't say anything to discourage them as usual, and directly encouraged: "Qingdao's current achievements are inseparable from your own efforts...... Therefore, in the future, you must also believe that your efforts will not deceive, and sprint towards your dreams! ”

"Yes!" The Qingdao people responded loudly.

"Next, there are twelve days left before the Mingye Divine Palace Conference, you will face strong teams from all regions of the country, are you ready?"

"It's done!" The Qingdao crowd continued to respond loudly.

"The Mingye Shrine Conference is the last official competition before the winter break, everyone must work hard and achieve good results." After Inspector Kataoka finished speaking, he said to the captain of the team, Higashi Kiyokuni, "In the afternoon, the captain will go to participate in the draw of lots for the Meiye Jingu General Assembly with Minister Ota. ”

"Yes!" Dong Qingguo replied.

"Disband, Jinguji and Chris stay for a while." Superintendent Kataoka asked everyone except Chris and Jinguji to disband and move freely.

When everyone else was almost gone, Superintendent Kataoka said to the ace pitcher and main battle catcher who were left behind, "Tomorrow afternoon, a magazine will come over to give you an interview, and if you don't understand something, you can ask Miss Takashima, and I won't say anything." ”

"Yes." Chris and Jinguji nodded their heads, indicating that they understood.

……

"Minister Higashi and Ota are back, quickly show us the lottery form."

In the afternoon, Dong Qingguo, who returned from going to the lottery with Minister Ota, was blocked at the door by a group of soldiers who were waiting for him.

"Yes, from the second round, you only need to win three games to win." Taro Fukuda took the form handed by Dong Qingguo and looked at the ranking of Qingdao: "It seems that our captain is a rare lucky one, and if he enters the second round, he can play one less game." ”

"Is the opponent in the first game Gifu Johoku?" Yuki Tanaka looked at the name of the school on the battle table and studied: "If all goes well, the opponent in the semifinals should be Komayamai Otoma, and the opponent in the final should be the winner between Kansai and Shoshosha." ”

"No matter who the opponent is, we will defeat them!" Takashi Fujii spoke the hearts of the people in the army.

After reading the lottery table, the others returned it to Dong Qingguo and continued the previous training content.

……

The next morning, the First Army and Superintendent Kataoka gathered in the conference room and began to comment on yesterday's game.

The first was published by Kentaro Matsuda, who recorded various data about the Red Sea Osugata and themselves:

"Hit: Red Sea Osuda is 33, we are 30"

"Home Run: ......"

"Strikeouts

"Four Dead (Bad) Balls: Red Sea Osugata is 5, we are 4 (the point here is that there are several four bad balls in a normal baseball game, unless the difference in strength between the two sides is too large)"

"Sacrifice to fight

"Raids

"Wild throws

"Catch

"Hit: ......"

“……”

(Note: Data like this won't be available for a long time to come, unless it's copied from a real-life game video in the future.) )。

After the interview with the magazine in the afternoon, everyone in the First Army did not talk too much, and their main energy was put on the next Mingye Shrine Conference.

Although the gold content of the Meiye Jingu Tournament is not as high as that of Koshien in spring and Koshien in summer, it is still an important national competition, and they still hope to win the Meiye Jingu Shrine Tournament.
