"The sound is really loud." Miyuki held up his helmet, now believing Kōshū's statement about Tachikawa's ace, "Does it feel very similar to Eijun on the court? Indeed, this unyielding energy is indeed very similar."
But what's the use?
The reason why a towering tree can grow so tall and tall is that the content below the ground is even more important.
This is the same reason why baseball giants often win. From student sources, equipment to teacher conditions, established training plans, and nutritional plans, the result is that other schools are slightly worse in every aspect, which means that the total difference is huge, and the gap is so big that you can't even see the taillights of the car.
Miyuki looked at the pitcher on the opposite side coldly, 'Is this the person who almost affected our ace's status? '
The ball came, probably because he was cautious about Seido's hard hit, but it turned out to be another high-speed straight ball.
"Bump -" Miyuki gently fished it out and directed it towards the defensive gap.
"Right field!" Ido's shout was thrown behind him, and the batter who ran to first base raised his lips, "Really, I don't know how many upgraded High Rotation Speed Straight Ball I've seen." ' How can you be afraid of one that hasn't been mastered yet?
"Tch, you really shouldn't have thrown that ball to that four-bat." Nozawa murmured, and the next moment a hand covered his chin, forcing him to look away from first base.
"Ah, Ido, why are you up here?" Did you call a timeout? Why didn't you hear it?
The swarthy catcher took off his mask and said helplessly, "A Jie, it's good to have a sense of responsibility, and I especially understand your mood in leading the team to victory. But don't let the desire to win overshadow our original intention."
"Huh? In this situation, it's too late to talk about original intentions." Their original intention at the beginning was indeed just to practice baseball with their idols, and they hoped to continue to work together, but they couldn't even play a few games. What's the use of such original intentions?
"No!" Ido frowned. He knew now was not a good time to say this, but Nozawa didn't even hear the pause call, which was very problematic.
He cares about winning or losing, but he cares more about the state of his partner. Who knows if Nozawa loses this game, he will lose interest in pitching. "Now, how long will it take for me to be at odds with my junior? Didn't you think clearly about it when you first came to Tachikawa Private?"
Nozawa was silent. Before, Hai Kou thought that he could bear it, but he had never faced the real consequences. Now when he sees people who entered the industry later than him, or even those who followed him running ahead, he will particularly doubt whether his previous choice was correct.
Seeing that his partner didn't speak, Ido sighed, "I figured it out from the beginning. I rejected all invitations from famous families, Kanagawa. I - Ido, just want to play baseball with you. Other teammates and winning or losing are actually not important. So you have to tell me that you regret your previous decision. Do you want me to regret it too? Regret that I choose to continue to partner with you?!"
Without waiting for Nozawa to reply, Ido turned his back and squatted back to Home Plate.
Tuliu Tachikawa Ace stood alone on Pitcher's Mound and got angry, 'What do you mean?? What do you mean by what you just said? You guys just said you regretted partnering with me?? '
For a moment, he forgot all about Kōshū and Hayakawa. The catcher in front of him was the one who made him most emotional.
"Wha—" As he raised his arms, the pitcher turned his emotions into violence. With the momentum of "No one can stop me, I'm going to smash that glove today," he struck out three times in a fast pace.
"Three out, switch sides!"
After all the batterers were dealt with, Nozawa slowly recovered from his rage. Good guy, it's not good to have a baby. It was clearly arranged.
Ido came over to show his goodwill. Nozawa was ready to discuss the problem just now. However, when he heard his partner's words the next second, he felt it was unnecessary, "Nice shot, partner!"
The two men's gloves touched hard, and Ido knew that the pitcher was no longer angry.
The only thing unclear is whether the pitcher has figured it out - on the field, any emotion is useless. It is like a fish on the cutting board, or a student entering the examination room. All the tests are on the past efforts. At this time, it is better to have a calm mind and at least use all the abilities you have.
On the other side, Kōshū was still lowering his head to adjust his gloves, but secretly made a decision in his heart, that is, he would no longer say exaggerated words in the group. Maybe some people would really listen to his heart, especially when they are in adversity.
But this decision made him sad, 'Why, does any emotion in the world have such a short shelf life? ' Everyone is moving forward in a hurry, throwing away the things they once cherished as they go.
'Maybe you have to talk to Hayakawa.. '
Walking towards Pitcher's Mound, Kōshū and Miyuki discussed Pitching Strategy for a while.
"Eh? Don't you want to throw? This is a rare opportunity for actual combat." Being able to throw in Analysis Room does not mean that it can be thrown in the game. Being able to throw in a tailwind game does not mean that it can be thrown in a headwind game. Pitching is so idealistic, so it is so important to constantly polish it in actual combat.
And now, Kōshū actually said that he will no longer vote for Cutter in the remaining rounds of this game.
"It's nothing, it's just not necessary." The ace's gaze was gently placed on Dugout opposite, and he only glanced at Miyuki. There was a calmness in his voice that had retreated from passion, "Just win them normally."
Therefore, all the jokes were taken with a certain amount of seriousness. Kōshū reflected on those "bold" speeches he made in the group, which ones did not have a bit of real overlooking, so it is completely normal to cause emotional feedback from seniors.
"Ordinary..." Miyuki wanted to crack open the ace's head and drain the water inside, "What kind of conceited statement are you making?"
"No, it's not arrogance. I have just reflected on it. There is a harsh saying in China. For ugly people, careful observation is a kind of cruelty. Then for weaklings, excessive display of skills is also a kind of cruelty. I just need to give full play to my own strength."
Kōshū's appearance made Miyuki silent for several seconds, and finally laughed out loud, "Hahahaha, it's not just mean, it's simply cruel."
The emotional changes of everyone on the field did not stop the passage of time, nor could they change the final result of the game.
"Buzz——"
The voice of Air Raid Siren sounded again, the players from both sides lined up to salute, and the aces of both sides walked towards each other in unison.
Nozawa knocked on the junior's chest hard, "You guys are awesome again! That Cutter, why didn't you vote again?"
Kōshū pretended to cry out in pain, "Well, I just want to show off to my seniors, it's not mature yet."
"Well, I want to win! In the end, we ended the 7th round early. I feel very unhappy just thinking about it!"
"I will also try to finish the other teams early."
"Arrogant brat, look at my brain!"
During the fun, the strange smell of friendship seemed to disappear, but both sides tasted the impurity to some extent.
Today is considered last day. I went to the company for a whole afternoon. Because I was too sleepy, I fell asleep for a while when I came back from get off work, so I will continue to update during the day tomorrow.
