Group 4

Based on the manga and his initial observations, Su Qing found the dorm's lineup quite interesting.

The dependable big brother Harada Masaru was absolutely the most reliable one, making him the perfect match for the chuunibyou, tsundere ace Narumiya Mei, who occasionally had a nasty temper.

Catchers and pitchers were naturally a rather contradictory pairing.

There were many top-tier ace pitchers in the world, and no shortage of excellent catchers.

But it was rare for the very best of both to partner up.

At the moment, Harada had taken Narumiya and Shirakawa, two veteran players, over to the field to sort out matters concerning the newcomers with the coach, while Su Qing was bickering with the viewers in the Livestream.

More interaction would speed up his leveling. The current Livestream could only fit so many people, and even earning a few donations was difficult. He hoped tomorrow's daily check-in would give him some great luck and yield something good—or better yet, upgrade the Livestream directly. As for baseball skills or some cheating bat... he had no interest in any of that.

Although professional baseball had countless unspoken rules, as well as players who cheated using all sorts of drugs and tools, and he did not entirely oppose some of those things, they still had to be based on one's own abilities.

"There are plenty of other tricks. Banned drugs are just the dumbest method~" Su Qing rambled from his bed, then checked his watch. "We're gathering in half an hour. You'll get to see them then."

-

Cute Little Lion: The streamer's watch is so cool. It looks really nice.

-

HuaHua You WangWang: It's way too flashy, okay?-

I Only Pick Up Balls: How much was it? It looks expensive.

"It was alright. Just over seven hundred thousand dollars."

-

Flecher:!!-

Green Field: Fuck!凸(艹皿艹)-

Gather Flowers When You Can: Is the streamer serious?-

QiMi QiMi: Is the streamer really that rich?

-

Narumiya is Super Cute: Did you all read this Livestream's bio? You'll know whether the streamer is rich once you read it.

-

Da Gu Da Gu: What does that mean? What does that mean?-

Little Angel Sai Gao: Let me see what kind of person this streamer really is.

Su Qing felt a little embarrassed at that. The bio had been generated by the Livestream itself and had nothing to do with his own wishes. Was his cheat ability a little too uncontrollable?-

Forever No. 2:!!-

God of the Pitcher's Mound: I'll copy it out for everyone.

Streamer: Su Qing (fifth day after transmigrating)

Height: 175

Cheat ability: Cross-world Livestream; he brought his money with him after dying

Interest: Playing baseball

Favorite food: roujiamo

Favorite animal: children

-

Cute Little Lion: Hahahahaha! What kind of problem is "favorite animal: children"? Hahaha!-

HuaHua You WangWang: It's clearly such plain, unadorned wording, so why does every single part make me want to laugh?-

I Only Pick Up Balls: I'm sure this self-introduction wasn't made by the streamer himself. It's way too stupid.

-

Flecher: But being able to bring your money over after dying sounds way too wonderful.

-

Green Field: Isn't your focus a little off, person above?-

Gather Flowers When You Can: Exactly! Shouldn't the important point be that he was already rich in his previous life, which was why he could immediately afford a watch like this?

-

QiMi QiMi: Streamer, what did you do in your previous life?

Su Qing answered seriously, "I played ball."

-

Narumiya is Super Cute: ...Yeah right, like I'd believe that!

-

Da Gu Da Gu: Can we ask something practical? Streamer, were you rich in your previous life? What was your monthly salary? It has nothing to do with your current life anyway, so it isn't private information. Satisfy the curiosity of us future loyal viewers, okay?

Su Qing laughed. So if he did not say it now, they would not be loyal in the future? Smiling, he said, "I had money in my previous life. But we didn't calculate things by monthly salary. Normally, it was annual salary."

Only a few special seasons had been paid monthly~

But that was not quite right either, because many of his salaries had been issued weekly by the ballclub—basically once a week.

-

Little Angel Sai Gao: Wow!-

Forever No. 2: I suddenly feel like I'm some kind of 'talent.'

-

God of the Pitcher's Mound: Why did the person above put that in quotation marks?-

Cute Little Lion: What was the streamer's annual salary?

-

HuaHua You WangWang: Don't keep us in suspense. Tell us already.

-

I Only Pick Up Balls: Yeah, yeah! If you tell us well, we'll donate to you. After all, that was money from your previous life, and you'll use it up sooner or later. You're still young, so you need to seize every chance to make money.

-

Flecher: The logic of the person above is genius, hahaha~

Su Qing stretched, counting on his fingers as he spoke. "It varied by stage. At first, it was over five hundred thousand dollars. In my second year, it was over ten million dollars~"

He had been one of the very best to enter arbitration early. Everyone else had to wait until their third year, but he had qualified for arbitration in his second. So there was nothing wrong with putting it that way, right?-

Green Field: Holy shit! Boss!! I bow before you!!

-

Gather Flowers When You Can: Take my knees, boss!!-

QiMi QiMi: What happened later? What happened later? I'm curious about later!!-

Narumiya is Super Cute: Yeah, what happened later?

"Later, I signed my first contract. They offered me 150 million dollars over ten years, but I turned it down. Then it became 120 million over five years."

-

Da Gu Da Gu:...

-

Little Angel Sai Gao:...

-

Forever No. 2: Are you streamers just messing with us?

-

God of the Pitcher's Mound: Forget it. Everyone has times when they brag. Still, I have to say, bragging feels pretty great.

Su Qing awkwardly scratched his hair. He had not even finished yet. His second contract had been much bigger~

Though his second contract had indeed screwed over the ballclub. Because of his later injuries, the Prisoners had to keep paying his salary while he could no longer take the field for them.

Tsk, just thinking about it made him feel secretly pleased!

He definitely had not felt good about being unable to play anymore, but he believed nobody would refuse the chance to lie down and collect money.

But that was all in the past. With his previous experience, he would be smarter this time. He knew he should not push himself too hard in amateur ball or the Minor League. Showing off his abilities was fine, but once many injuries happened, they would keep recurring. The impact on a professional career was simply enormous.

"Alright, I'm going to gather up now. Let's all go see those handsome kids!"

-

Da Gu Da Gu: I want to see Seido!

-

Little Angel Sai Gao: I want to see Seido too +1! When are they going to fight already!!-

Forever No. 2: Fight! Fight!

-

God of the Pitcher's Mound: You people are too mean~-

Cute Little Lion: Huh! Someone's coming.

-

HuaHua You WangWang: Who is it? Who is it?

The viewers had a much wider field of vision than Su Qing, so they had spotted someone approaching from the doorway long ago.

"Hello." The door had already been open, and the newcomer knocked on it before standing outside and looking at Su Qing. "I'm Tada, a first-year newcomer living next door. Want to go to the field together?"

-

Cute Little Lion: It's Tadano Itsuki. He looks much more spirited than his two-dimensional image.

-

HuaHua You WangWang: Are you trying to say his dead-fish eyes aren't as obvious? Hahahahaha!!-

I Only Pick Up Balls: How nice! He came to ask a little buddy to go to the field together! Let's go!!-

Flecher: Let's go! Let's go!!

Of course Su Qing went with him. After introducing himself to the kid, he headed toward the field with him, conveniently gaining a guide along the way.

"How are you so familiar with this place? Did you do your homework in advance? That's amazing."

Tadano Itsuki was rather introverted. Faced with such straightforward praise, he shyly scratched his hair. "Not really~ I liked this school a lot when I was in middle school, so I came here many times before."

-

Green Field: Why is he kind of adorable?-

Gather Flowers When You Can: Dead-fish eyes approved.

-

QiMi QiMi: Kick the person above out!-

Narumiya is Super Cute: Streamer, walk faster. Hurry up and get to the field—I want to see Narumiya Treasure.

-

Da Gu Da Gu: The person I want to see is at Seido. Streamer, go take a picture!

-

Little Angel Sai Gao: The one I want to see is at Seido too, waaaaa~~
