Zhang Su simply set a schedule.

It's February 15, 2058. It is 1 day from Miss Lianwu's birthday, 403 days from Red Flame Break 5 to open up Gensokyo, and 1207 days from the end of the world.

A year has been spent on four years of preparation, like blowing out a candle, and once the remaining three are also extinguished, the world will sink into darkness.

The fight against demons always means giving, sweating, and bloodshed. Zhang Su looked at the armor hidden in the office safe. He knew very well that the struggle after the natural disaster was even more difficult than it is now, and that if he made more preparations now, there would be less trouble.

There was a sound of footsteps at the door, and Shinjo Mitama and Muroka came after breakfast.

"Hello teacher." Murohua nodded to Zhang Su in a regular manner.

"I'm here to thank you today, and this kid Murohua has bothered you." Xincheng Meiyu bowed slowly to Zhang Su.

Today, Shinshin Mitama and Murohua both wear uniforms in the same style, with a black long-sleeved woolen shirt with beautiful light blue striped piping at the collar, sleeves and placket, and a long black cardigan V-neck sweater made of merino, which is both comfortable and sophisticated.

Due to the local characteristics, there are no pants in winter, and the red and black pleated skirt of wool blend is worn underneath, and warm stockings are underneath. They look big and small, they look seven or eight points alike, and their appearance is very cute.

"Murohua is a good child, and it is natural to take care of her." Zhang Su said.

"I'm sorry, it's a very abrupt request, but can you go with us to an open place to participate in training? I kept thinking that it would be okay if I overdrew my life to protect this child. But now that Komuro's eyesight has returned, it's like a miracle to me, and I want her to train and master the 'guardian' magic of our new city family. Xincheng Meiyu said slowly.

"That's right, please." Zhang Su got up.

"Can you bring a ball if it's convenient?" Xincheng Meiyu asked.

"I'm looking for ......" Zhang Su rummaged through the cabinet, in the 90s of the last century, the Anxin House was run by the family, and it was a bit large, and there were a lot of sundries. He managed to find a round baseball, "Is this okay?" ”

"Very good." Xincheng Miyu smiled slightly, "We're going to play baseball." ”

"Huh?" Komuro Hana listened, not yet aware of this kind of game.

When Zhang Su went out, he was going to take the coat by himself, but Xincheng Meiyu first brought the brown coat over, put it on for Zhang Su, and helped him put it on from behind. This feeling made Zhang Su's heart beat a little faster.

"No, I'm sorry." He tied his clothes. Xincheng Meiyu opened the door very measuredly, took Xiao Murohua out, and then Zhang Su followed.

Walk through the snow through the forest to the back mountain, a clear field.

Zhang Su used to teach Lian Yang to drive here, and that was last year, and now the snow on the ground has begun to melt, and everything is renewed.

He heard the birds chirping, and at this time of the year, the melting of the snow revealed the roots of the grass, and insects began to dig and gnaw at the stems and leaves, causing the hungry finches to come out of their nests to catch them.

"In the past, when all witches were not enlisted in the army, there were competitions for all witches to be professional athletes, as well as e-sports, but then they were all canceled because of the war. However, my mother did play in the Yomiuri Witch Professional Wild Team back then. Xincheng Meiyu turned her head and said to Murohua.

"That's amazing...... Murohua wants to know more about her great mother. Xincheng Miyu is the best of the previous generation of witches.

Murohua sometimes feels that she is dragging her mother down. If she hadn't given birth to Murohua, Shinjo Miyu would have been a witch heroine on par with the angel sisters Kanqu and Chloei, rather than a traitor who would never be used again.

Shinjo Meiyu is 1.85 meters tall, and she was very depressed and depressed because of the bad food in the New Tokyo First Witch Prison before, but with the rehabilitation of this year, and the matter of Komuro Hana made her happy, Shinjo Meiyu returned to the appearance of a stone wall!

Although she couldn't see it now, Zhang Su thought that her abdominal muscles must be as fine as dragon scales.

"Baseball is the art of throwing the ball hard at the catcher, the catcher sits still and looks at the six-way, and the batter stands in front of the catcher and tries to knock the ball away, and once he hits the ball, the ball is knocked away, and then he becomes a runner and can throw the bat and start running the base until the enemy player picks up the ball. Therefore, if you hit the ball far away, and you can run the ball on fourth base in one breath during this period, it is called a 'home run'. Xincheng Meiyu said, and then asked Zhang Su to adjust her collar.

"This way you can ......" Zhang Su lowered the limited power of the collar so that she could use her magic power.

"Now, pitch with all your might." Xincheng Miyu asked Zhang Su to throw the ball to her.

Zhang Su shook his arm and threw a ball at Xincheng Meiyu. The baseball hurtles through the air, whining at its extreme speed.

More than a meter away from Xincheng Meiyu, Zhang Su saw her azure wall flash, and the whole ball was bounced out, but it didn't bounce off, but went straight back to Zhang Su himself.

He was quick and caught the ball in mid-air.

"The most common use of 'guardian' magic is 'defensive wall', creating a wall that can resist all attacks that come at us, and no threat can harm us." Shinjo Miyu held Komuro's hand.

"Uh-huh——!" Komuro Hana carefully felt how her mother's power was extended, and together they reached out their hands, conjuring up two azure walls, one large and one small, in the air.

"This kind of power, you need to grasp all its roots, strength, thickness is secondary, the important thing is direction, if too much force hits straight ahead, we have to use this wall to tilt or bounce it out. In the same way that the deflected armor at the front of a tank can cause ricochets, or the reactive armor can unload with an explosion, the limit of our 'guard' magic is to be able to wipe out any enemy blow to naught. "Shinjo Mitama teaches Komuro Hana.

"I, I don't know if I can do it......" Murohua tried hard.

"Now we can play a baseball game like this." Xincheng Meiyu squatted behind Xiao Murohua, who stood beside her, "Next, Mr. Dasu will keep throwing the ball at me, and you, as a 'batsman', must generate a protective wall in time, intercept the ball at the most accurate time, and guide it to bounce away, preferably to be able to fly out, hit as far as possible, and hit a 'home run' that can make you circle the field!" ”

When Zhang Su heard this, he couldn't help but feel that Xincheng Meiyu's training was really a wonderful idea. The magic that gathers in the air is rigid, like a bat, and it can be hit with the right guidance, which is fun and educational.

Komuro Hana is obviously looking forward to it.

"Good! Mom, I'll freeze my magic and hit the ball! Muroka nodded vigorously.

"Now please stand a little farther away so that Komuro Hana has enough time to react." Xincheng Meiyu is very dominant.

Zhang Su felt that she was like the unkempt appearance in the No. 1 Prison that day.

He moved his hands and feet and stood about 100 meters away.

According to the attitude of the baseball pitcher in his impression, Zhang Su first raised one leg, then turned sideways slightly, and then aimed at the center of the vast and eye-catching Mrs. Meiyu of Xincheng, and threw a ball hard!

The ball flew straight away, and under the swing of Zhang Su's vigorous pitcher, the ball flew in front of Xincheng Meiyu almost instantly, crashed into the wall and then returned to Zhang Su's side, and the whole process was only more than 1 second.

“？” Murohana watched the ball go back like this.

"It's really an accurate counter-throw...... Zhang Su saw that the ball did not return in a straight line, but came back in an arc, and realized that Xincheng Meiyu's unparalleled use of wall defense skills knew at that moment what angle to bounce the ball and what speed to use, so that it could appear firmly in Zhang Su's hand.

"Try again, Komuro." Xincheng Meiyu said.

Zhang Su slowed down half of his speed and threw the ball forward.

The ball was obviously much slower than the last time it flew and swept towards Xincheng Meiyu.

Murohua looked at the ball, and immediately condensed his magic power and summoned the "defense wall", but by the time the defense wall was formed, the ball had already been thrown back by Xincheng Meiyu.

"Mom, it's too fast...... The ball was too fast. Muroka was a little nervous.

"Don't put water, the fastest, use the fastest." Xincheng Meiyu bounced the ball back a few meters in front of Zhang Su and asked him to pick it up, as if he also realized that Zhang Su had deliberately slowed down the ball before.

"Komuro Hana has just started training, so it's better to use a slower pace." Zhang Su felt that it was too difficult for Murohua.

"She has to be stronger, more powerful, quicker, and more magical than ever." Xincheng Meiyu was merciless.

Zhang Su threw the ball again, he and Xincheng Meiyu didn't feel tired, and they could throw hundreds of times in an hour, but it was bitter for Murohua, she watched the two of them keep throwing and catching the ball, and she couldn't even watch it.

She blushed, gritted her teeth, and repeated the training over and over again, trying to catch the ball thrown by Zhang Su.

A few times Komuro Hua has already captured the rhythm of Zhang Su's pitching, because Zhang Su really can't bear to see Komuro Hua can't catch it like this, so he will deliberately throw a ball every 3 seconds accurately, and the trajectory is exactly the same.

In this way, as long as he knows the rhythm and remembers the direction and approximate speed of the ball's movement, he can block the ball at least once.

"Don't feed the ball, you should cooperate with me! Throw speed balls and curveballs, and throw S-shaped 'magic balls'! "Xincheng Meiyu is not used to it, and she has also strengthened Zhang Su.

Zhang Su has never practiced this kind of thing, which can be regarded as throwing training. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, maybe one day in the future, he would have to face the scene of throwing props on the battlefield, and then the experience of pitching would come in handy!

So he also changed the pace slightly, so that Komuro, who was finally used to pitching, faced the frustration of not being able to catch the ball again.

After about 1 hour, Zhang Su estimated that she had definitely thrown 1,000 balls, and Komuro Hua was already sweating, she tensed her nerves, and her legs were nailed to the ground.

Zhang Su noticed the difference between Murohua and the other children.

Her "willpower" is surprisingly strong, similar to that of the real bow, while Murohana's will and determination can burn for a long time without any medium.

It's all a talent inherited from her mother.

Just like now, Zhang Su saw Xincheng Meiyu's eyes focused and stern, and there was no change for dozens of minutes.

And Komuro Hua was also full of red eyes next to him, not discouraged at all by conceding the ball, but persevered, persevered, in order to hit the next ball!

Zhang Su's 1001st pitch, the long-bouncing baseball has worn out, the skin is cracked, and it is no longer irregular, causing it to fly in the air with abnormal trajectory and often strange movements.

Bang!

He saw the ball suddenly fly, maybe it was luck, or a flash of inspiration in practice, Zhang Su noticed that the ball was intercepted before it hit the wall of Xincheng Meiyu!

It was Komuro Hana who hit the ball!

Murohana herself didn't expect it.

She was waiting for the ball to be caught by her mother and then return to Zhang Su's side, but she raised her hand to release the wall in an instant, and actually blocked the ball.

The ball flies high and then falls, rolling on the snow, it should be a matter of angle, it is a ball that goes straight up and down.

"Hit!" Murohana is very happy.

Zhang Su breathed a sigh of relief, with a relieved expression on his face.

Komurohua's efforts are admirable

"That's good, let's go back then." Zhang Su sighed.

"No!"

"Don't!" Shinjo Miyu and Murohua said in unison.

"What? So how far do you plan to practice today? Zhang Su was surprised.

"A home run, of course!" She picked up the ball and threw it at Zhang Su.
