It was the second half of the seventh round, and the numbers on the scoreboard of the game had reached the last few squares. On the score belonging to Ichidai Third High, a series of zeros were particularly dazzling.
Seido only scored 1 point in the first two games, and then it was a series of zeros.
It seems that they are not even close, but the numbers in the hits column reveal the rhythm of the game. Seido has already had 9 hits, while Ichidai Third only has 2 hits.
Amakuhisa In the always optimistic sky, there is a dark cloud named 'Kōshū', and the area covered by this dark cloud has a tendency to become larger and larger, causing the entire sky to turn from clear to overcast.
"Amakuhisa, let's go." Seeing the ace still sitting on the chair, the catcher shouted, but his brows furrowed when he touched the opponent's expression.
"Ah?" Amakuhisa didn't seem to be freed from his thoughts, with a dazed look on his face, "Okay."
"Hey, are you okay?" The catcher's words were a little worried, and it was very rare to see that kind of expression on the pitcher's face.
"Kick--" Amakuhisa put one foot on the steps to the stadium and paused obviously.
He was shocked by the condition of his body.
In the microscopic world, a foot hit the ground from top to bottom. The hard object in front caused the sole to suddenly stop, causing a tremor. The vibration was then transmitted from the calf to the hip bone, ribs and even the mandible.
Amakuhisa felt that all the bones in his body were buzzing and vibrating due to taking this step, just like the shelves that kept shaking in an earthquake.
Then the muscles attached to the bones woke up from deep soreness as they started to exert force again.
Along with it, a trace of strength was taken away. He felt his stomach twitching a little, and a kind of emptiness was brewing in the middle of his body, which finally turned into a rumbling sound inside his body.
"...Kousei, your stomach is ringing."
This sentence made everyone in Dugout look at him. Didn't this guy eat well before setting off?
"Sorry, I wasn't very hungry in the morning, so I gave the remaining half a bowl of rice to others."
"Oh, no!! Amakuhisa BOY, how could you come here without finishing your meal!" The supervisor almost burst into tears.
"Because in the past few times, I was hungry just after I finished voting, so——"
"Impossible! That's why you didn't eat breakfast well the past few times! Chocolate! You need chocolate!"
The mess of Ichidai Third at this time immediately attracted Seido's attention.
"What happened to the ace on the other side? Is he injured?" A group of people were surrounding him.
"Who knows." As he said this, everyone watched intently. They were already at the back of the finals. If Ichidai Third's ace was injured and could not continue to vote, even if Seido won in the end, he would be suspected of taking advantage of the situation.
"Eh?" All the Seido players standing on the railing asked in unison. They looked at each other and pointed at Dugout opposite, "Are you eating?"
"Well, it looks like an energy bar or something."
"Really, eat at this time." As we all know, the stomach needs a lot of blood oxygen supply during digestion. There is only so much blood oxygen supply in the body. If it is given to the stomach, it will not be given to the brain. This is why you will feel sleepy after lunch.
And it's basically useless. "It will definitely cause indigestion." During exercise, the muscles consume a lot of oxygen, so eating at this time is very inefficient, and it is better to drink sports drinks.
As a result, just when the Seido melon-eating crowd thought of this, they saw the ace on the opposite side was stopped from eating, and a bottle of drink was handed to him.
"Ah, started drinking sports drinks."
This long series of actions has made it obvious that there is only one truth.
"Ichidai Third Ace, is your physical strength exhausted?" After guessing this fact, everyone looked at each other, and something sprouted in their hearts.
On the other side, Eijun heard this and hurried to the back.
"Hi! Please use it!"
Kōshū was watching the show when he was forced to take two steps back by a cup.
"What for?"
"Hmm!" Eijun blew out two puffs of air from his nose. He passed the cup in his hand again, and the sports drink inside shook twice.
"Hey..." Kōshū reluctantly took it, and in the voice of Eijun's "Come on, come on", he drank the drink in one gulp and shook the cup with the rim down.
"Yoshi! Please leave it to me!" Eijun took the cup away like a hotel waiter.
"Pfft hahaha——" Not far away, Miyuki, who was eating a double melon, laughed out loud, "That's great, our ace has another younger brother!"
Kuramochi next to him had a strange expression, as if he wanted to calm down and not show negative emotions such as jealousy, but he couldn't hide it in his heart.
Finally, Kōshū and others looked over together and saw a catcher with a smirk and a shortstop with a distorted expression.
'I always feel that the combination of these two people seems to be bad bullies or something. '
Suddenly, everyone's voices were in sync.
"I'm on the field!" The first one to escape was Kuramochi.
Ichidai Third has finally finished dealing with it. As the first batter of the inning, of course he has to go up.
But Kuramochi went to Batter's Box, and the mood was not so peaceful.
'Was I also like this before? ' As the core of a group of people, surrounded by friends who had gathered in the middle, he thought he would never think about all this again, but when the group of people looked back together, he was instantly shattered.
Obviously, as the core, Kōshū, who is one year younger than him, is much more rational, and maintains an equal input and output relationship with the people around him, occasionally... I often accept Eijun's random behavior.
'In short, it is like a template. ' Such people always feel incredible to Kuramochi. Like the plants in the greenhouse, the trunk is so straight that you can use a ruler to measure the angle between it and the ground to be 90 degrees. 'It's too fake, or it doesn't look like me. '
In his eyes, Eijun, who is in the same dormitory, is what a normal boy should look like. Although this kind of 'normality' is as dazzling as if there is no shadow, it is this kind of person that Kuramochi can get along with at ease.
'Much stronger than me. ' Thinking of the experience of being betrayed by relatives and friends, he hit the first pitch of Ichidai Third ace.
"Bump--" Amakuhisa regained some strength after replenishing water, but the power of the ball was still there.
"Out!"
"It's down to 25%," Kuramochi said aloud when running back Dugout. This was his On Base rate in this game.
In Kōshū's peripheral vision, the man ran back silently.
'When people are lonely, they will be stabbed by loneliness; when they are among the crowd, they will be stabbed by the crowd; when they are in their own inner world, they will be stabbed by their own scrutiny. '
It's April~ There is another update today, but you have to wait another 20 minutes~
I'm not too anxious today, because starting from the fourth month of launch, Quanqin requires 500 even orders before I give it.
I will definitely run naked with this book, haha
