Regarding the fact that Aoba was found temporarily, it is obvious that it can't be known by the opposite team, otherwise it would be nice to grab a random one from the crowd of onlookers, why let Tamagawa Saki, who is the manager of the club, go out of his way to find it in a place where the opposite team can't see.

So now when Tamagawa Saki reported to his coach, the two of them only whispered, and the coach looked in the direction of Aoba and nodded at Aoba friendly, this matter is confirmed.

Higashikawa High School, a famous baseball school, is said to have been a regular visitor to Koshien and even won the Koshien championship.

Therefore, for Dongchuan University to accept this game and conduct a practice match with the weak team of the private Qingchuan University, it seems that it is because the coaches of both sides used to be friends when they were students, which will give this face.

After that, the game officially began, and the players on both sides sat in their own rest areas, because it was Higashikawa College that attacked first, and the private Harukawa High School defended, so Aoba became the right fielder.

Obviously, the coach didn't think that Aoba could have any unexpected play, and completely regarded him as a make-up.

So Aoba was also happy to make up the numbers, just standing on the baseball field, leisurely watching the game go on.

Even if the opponent's Dongchuan University did not let the main force play, it was still not surprising that it didn't take long for the private Qingchuan University to lose three points, so the offense and defense were exchanged.

After the switch of offense and defense, Aoba, who is the ninth bat, sat in the rest area on the sidelines, waiting for him to hit the ball.

But naturally, it wasn't Aoba's turn to play, because before it was his turn to play, the ninth baseman, the private Harukawa High School had already been knocked out by the opponent three times, so the attack ended and the game began the second game.

So Aoba came on the field again to act as a right outfielder, and continued to watch how his team lost every point on the field.

Aoba doesn't usually have much interest in baseball, so naturally he started to feel a little bored at this time.

But since I promised someone else. Then Aoba will make it to the end, so even if he is bored, Aoba still sticks to his post.

In this way, when the offense and defense were exchanged in the third game, it was finally Aoba's turn to come on the court and make a hitter.

Standing lazily in the hitting area, Aoba didn't have any ** to hit the ball, and he didn't even swing the bat, so he was simply knocked out by a strikeout.

The coach was not surprised by Aoba's appearance at this time, after all, he was looking for a number, and he still expected others to suddenly break out into a home run? Any passer-by is actually a hidden master or something.

But even so, the coach still nodded encouragingly to Aoba, and it could be seen that this coach was a good person.

"Aoba, it's hard work. Everyone on the baseball team also nodded at Aoba and said hello.

Obviously, they were grateful that Aoba was able to come and help, even if Aoba didn't actually come in handy.

"Uesugi-san, wipe your sweat! Saki Tamagawa ran towards Aoba, who was already sitting in the rest area, with a ponytail dangling, and handed Aoba a towel.

"Okay, thank you. "Although Aoba doesn't actually sweat much. But he still smiled and took the towel and wiped his sweat.

"Uesugi-san, thank you so much for helping you make your dreams come true!" said Saki Tamagawa, sitting down next to Aoba.

"Is this their dream?" Aoba looked at the disparity in scores on the scoreboard. Even he, an outsider, felt a little sad.

"Yes, it's everyone's dream to be able to play against a real strong team! Although we lost badly, at least we played real college baseball. Saki Tamagawa also looked at the scoreboard, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated. There is both sadness and relief.

"Real college baseball? It's a small dream, but it's not humble, you're great. Aoba said from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you, Uesugi-san. It can be seen that Aoba is identifying with his dream from the bottom of his heart. Tamagawa Saki's eyes gradually moistened, but she stubbornly did not let the tears flow, but smiled and nodded to Aoba.

"You're welcome, if you need someone to help you in the future, you are welcome to come to me at any time. Aoba said with a smile.

So the end result was not surprising, and the baseball team of Harukawa High School lost.

Aoba didn't do anything like turning the tide, because for this small baseball team, it might be an insult!

So even though Aoba wanted to help them win, in the end, they tried to complete the game that was just for them.

"Uesugi-san, let's go celebrate together, why don't you come along?" Tamagawa Saki's eyes were full of sadness about losing the game, but he still invited Aoba Michi.

Yes, they lost the game, and they lost badly, but they still have to celebrate, maybe just to celebrate that they finally played like a real baseball team, and played against the best teams seriously!

Looking at the way the team members cried and laughed after the people from Dongchuan High School left, Aoba knew that today's celebration belonged only to them, and only they could taste all kinds of flavors, and it was superfluous to follow them to make up the numbers.

"No, it's getting late, I should go back, and I have my own things to do! Aoba waved his hand and declined.

"Hey, Aoba-kun still has something to do, right? I'm really sorry to delay you until now. Saki Tamagawa immediately became a little uneasy.

"It's okay, it's not a big deal, but I'm going to go over now, so I'll take my leave. Aoba said goodbye at the end.

"Okay, since Aoba-kun still has something to do, I won't keep you. Thank you so much for today. Saki Tamagawa thanked Aoba again.

In this way, Aoba left the baseball field and the school in the midst of the farewell of the entire baseball team, facing the sunset that had already set halfway, and headed for the tram stop.

The process of waiting for the bus is boring, but Aoba still likes this kind of boring, at least it is much better than listening to the noise around him on the baseball field. After all, the tram stop at this time is much quieter than the usual crowds of people at the tram stop.

Even after getting on the train, Aoba found a seat. Just like that, I watched the sunset outside the car window all the way, and soon arrived at the tram stop near the cute cat café.

"Welcome to the cute cat café. Aoba, who pushed the door in, first heard the greeting of the cat and Mei Yi.

And then the cat and Mei saw clearly that the person who came in was Aoba.

"It turns out that Aoba-kun is here, good afternoon, Aoba-kun! No, this time should be good evening. The cat greeted Mei again.

"Mei Yi-chan, are you the only one, and it looks like it was already open when I wasn't there!" Aoba said with a smile as she walked into the café.

"Yes, Natsu, Fuyuki, and Yami-chan all have something to do today, so I'm left alone!Why? Didn't they sue Sù Aoba-kun?"

"Natsu and Fukiyuki have already said it, but I didn't expect Ami-chan to come either!" Aoba explained.

"I see! It seems that Ami-chan didn't sue Sù Aoba-kun! Actually, Ami-chan's school is about to start the school festival, and Ami-chan's class is preparing to play a stage play, and Ami-chan is the heroine!

"I see. In this way, the things that opened for business were all done by Mei Yi-chan herself? Aoba said as he stood in his usual place behind the bar.

"Aoba-kun is polite. It's my job!" Mei said with a smile, continuing what Aoba had done before entering the door, feeding the cats.

"Do you want a cup of coffee?" asked Aoba, customarily.

"Of course, thank you Aoba-kun. The cat replied.

So Aoba once again stood in his place and began to brew coffee, but because this time there were only two people to drink, there were a lot fewer coffee beans to grind.

Because of the lack of many connections, only Aoba and Mei Mata's café quickly fell silent, except for the occasional cat meow or two, reminding that this is not the world of old silent films.

But for Aoba and Mei Mata. The two of them enjoyed the silence very much, one quietly feeding the cats caused the cats to bark softly from time to time, and the other grinded coffee beans to make a rustling sound.

Time passed quietly until Aoba finished brewing coffee. And walked out of the bar and put the coffee in front of the cat and Meiyi.

"Thank you Aoba-kun. The silence in the café was broken by the cat's thanks.

"Mei Yi-chan is polite. Aoba smiled and returned to the bar, picking up his own coffee and drinking it.

"It's really quiet today!" said Cat Mei with a sigh.

"Yes, it's very quiet, and usually there will be dance and rain making noise, but today there is no sound at all. Aoba echoed.

"Speaking of which, Aoba-kun came so late today, is something going on?" the cat said curiously.

"Yes. Something did happen. Aoba drank his coffee as he recounted what had just happened.

"I see, what an interesting bunch of people!" Mei Catmata listened to Aoba talk about going to the baseball team as she went off the bench, and finally expressed her opinion.

"Really interesting people. Hopefully their baseball club will get better and better. Aoba nodded and smiled.

"yes! I hope their baseball club will get better and better. However, Aoba-kun didn't even help them get a few more points, at least a few home runs would be no problem!" Cat Mei said strangely.

'It's their game, whether it's winning or losing I don't think I should interfere, even if they don't get the last point. Aoba shook his head and said.

"Well, since Aoba-kun thinks so. The cat said with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Okay, since there is no one today, let's close the store early after drinking this cup of coffee. Aoba said as he looked out the window at the sky, which was already completely dark.

"Hey, is the door closed so early?" said the cat and Mei were a little surprised.

"It's already dark, it's not early. And it's not boring when everyone is here, it's just us, so I want to go out and take a look, what about Mei Yi-chan?" Aoba said with a smile.

"No, I'd better stay and take care of these children!" said the cat Mei Mata shaking her head.

"Then the sprout sauce is casual, I'll go first. Aoba said as she gently took the last sip of her coffee.

"Okay, then I'll see Aoba-kun tomorrow. The cat and Mei Yi waved at Aoba.

"See you tomorrow, Mei Yi-chan. Aoba said goodbye to the cat and Mei Yi, and pushed open the door of the cute cat café and left.

Aoba who got out of the cute cat café and was about to go around, but instinctively walked in the direction of the tram stop.

It wasn't until after walking a certain distance that Aoba reacted, and it seemed that he was on a familiar path again.

Shaking his head self-deprecatingly, Aoba has no intention of changing direction, since he has already gone this way, let's continue walking.

In this way, Aoba walked away from the night, and soon got closer and closer to the tram stop.

But before Aoba could decide whether to continue walking, or take the train as usual, he saw a white-haired figure with a violin case on his back from the corner in front of him, and it was the old man Yagiichiro who had been invited by Aoba to go to the cute cat café to take shelter from the rain and drink a cup of coffee by the way, and finally played a song to repay him when he left.

"Good evening. Although Aoba was a little strange that he could meet Yagi Ichiro here, he still greeted him naturally.

"Ah, it's Aoba-kun! Good evening. Ichiro Yagi naturally remembered Aoba as well, so he took off his hat and nodded to Aoba in greeting.

"It's so late, haven't Ichilang-san gone back yet? Aoba nodded in return.

"It's not hard, it's hard for me to be able to play my favorite tunes, where is it? Yagi Ichiro said with a hearty smile.

"Was Ichiro-san still putting on a show just now?" asked Aoba curiously.

"yes, but didn't Aoba-kun just prepare to go back?" said Ichiro Yagi with a smile.

"Actually, I'm going to go around. Aoba said with a shrug.

"Oh, it seems that Aoba-kun thinks the same as me! I'm also going to go around, and I always feel a little unwilling to go back at this time. Yagi Ichiro suddenly said with a smile as if he had found a confidant.

"In that case, do you want Ichiro-san to be with me? Anyway, it's just hanging out, and the two of them are better together. Aoba immediately invited.

"Okay, let's go together. Yagi Ichiro readily agreed. (To be continued......)
