"Game over!"
The seven-inning game ended quickly as both sides enjoyed the game.
The final score was 5 to 2, and Akagi Middle School won again in the second meeting between the two sides.
The pair of Sawamura and Sendou successfully suppressed the opponent's upper lane.
In the fifth inning, six-bat Oomura caught the opponent's straight ball, hit it and successfully entered the bases. Seven-bat Oyama selected 4 bad balls, and eight-bat Takada suddenly bunted, forming Safety Bunt with the bases full.
With no one out and the bases loaded, Takeda's forced run successfully sent Oomura back to home base to score the long-awaited extra run.
In this situation, the third round of top lane play came, but Qinghe players did not flinch at all.
Although Ono was put on base, he struck out Aoki again. Aoki's characteristic of not being good at decisive games was once again exposed, and he couldn't even bunt.
After Aoki, Kondo was also solved by the defense.
In the sixth inning, Sendou was walked in the first half.
After that, Sendou personally proved that no one could do anything to his footwork. He stole bases continuously and ran at super high speed without even needing to slide. He easily ran to third base and scored the third run with the help of Sawamura!
The subsequent players were eliminated one after another. Although the score was 3-0 at this time, the two sides still refused to give in to each other.
However, Sawamura was in super good condition, and with luck, the ball he hit was defended, so the opponent couldn't even get on base.
But what ushered in at Final Inning was the outbreak of Akashi.
After Fujiwara invested so much in Changeup, Akashi suddenly gave up on Changeup. This made Qinghe's original plan to let Akashi go bankrupt in the end because he was afraid of Changeup.
Qinghe once again lost two points. Although Qinghe recovered two points with consecutive hits in Final Inning with his tenacious Fighting Spirit, thanks to the favor of the goddess of luck, it didn't help.
In this way, Akagi Middle School's five summer games Practice Match all came to an end, and Akashi won five consecutive victories in excellent condition!
But after returning to the villa, Akashi was not holding a celebration ceremony, but Reflection Meeting.
Although the line attack finally broke out, it is a fact that the line attack strength is still lacking.
Sendou fell into deep thought again. After thinking for a long time, it was like a flash of inspiration, asking everyone not to care about the direction of the hit because of cooperating with teammates' base running.
To put it bluntly, in which direction this matter should be fought, whatever comes naturally.
Intensive hitting training began on the second day, and after three days of practice and improvement, the invitation from Sakura Women's University also arrived.
So everyone packed their luggage and moved into the daughter country, oh no, Sakura Women's University.
Sakura Women's University This expedition also went extremely smoothly, and the team also won consecutive games.
Whether it is Akashi or Sakura Girls, these last three days Training Camp are regarded as the final adjustments before the start of school in the fall.
The training schedule is also very compact. The game is played through battles, and then the training is summarized, and then Second Match is played!
You have to play at least three games a day, and you have to do targeted training after playing all the games that day, so the intensity is very high.
After the first evenly matched game, Akashi was basically suppressed.
However, everyone at Akashi also burst out with unprecedented Fighting Spirit and enthusiasm at this time.
Fight, self-summize, adjust, and then fight again. It can be said that although you lose a lot, you make rapid progress.
For the level of Akagi Middle School, the technical level of Sakura Women's University is much higher.
Akashi's group of people also often watch Sakura Girls's training and look for training methods that they can use.
Under what circumstances do people make the fastest progress?
The answer is when you put your heart and soul into it.
Everyone at Akashi has been in this state these past few days. Everyone is thinking about every hit and every swing of their own, carefully observing the swings and fielding of those very skilled big sisters.
Analyze their technical details and movements.
Observing, analyzing, thinking, and trying, they devote themselves wholeheartedly to baseball every day and can hardly feel the passage of time.
But Sendou lives in dire straits. He has to face Ozawa every day, which is an embarrassment that ordinary people cannot understand.
Ozawa's attitude towards Sendou and the way he spoke made the keen Fumino notice something.
She felt that Sendou seemed to be avoiding Ozawa-san.
And the way Ozawa looked at Sendou was actually a little gentle?
This discovery shocked her.
But later she discovered that although the two of them were often together, they mostly talked about baseball.
Perhaps because of the common language of baseball, they have some topics to talk about. After all, Sendou's strength is recognized by all members of Sakura Girls.
The relationship between Ozawa and Sendou is more like that of brother and sister, so Fumino has dispelled his doubts. What's more, Sendou is only in the second year of junior high school, and Ozawa is about to graduate from college.
Not only that, although they were still junior high school students, they still made some jokes.
For example, if you are teased by those older sisters and asked if you have any idea of peeping at them taking a bath, if you are another junior high school student, surrounded by girls like this, and they are all hot sports girls, you may really think about those messy things.
But Akashi is a group of people, a group of little angels mixed with a fool, and with the lazy guy Sendou, this situation will not happen, resulting in this group of people being teased to the point of blushing several times.
During the three-day training camp, Sakura Girls and Akashi played 10 games. After the last game, everyone on both sides collapsed to the ground as if they were relieved.
In other words, there is nothing wrong with Sendou, a lazy guy who doesn't spend much energy during the game, but his legs are a little numb from squatting...
Just like that Akagi Middle School, the last training camp in Tokyo in junior high school has come to an end.
What Sendou didn't know was that Coach Sakaki, an enthusiastic old man, came to peek at their games more than once.
"Can I die?" On Sakura Women's University's last night, Sendou lamented and entered the bathhouse.
"Sendou, you guys haven't been working so hard these days, right? We are really exhausted!
Ah! It hurts! "Hearing Sendou's exaggeration, Sawamura immediately got angry and stood up to accuse him crazily, but in the end he was defeated by the soreness all over his body.
But Sendou immediately ignored him.
"It's good to be energetic! You guy!" But you won't be idle.
"What did you say? Ouch! It hurts!" Sawamura's reaction to Sendou is always this big.
As for the others, they have already stood up and said that we don't want to talk!
"Hey! What are you thinking about?" After a moment of silence, Sawamura approached Sendou and spoke.
"I was thinking! Summer is over so soon! A year has passed like this!" Sendou said with emotion as he raised his head.
"That's right! We Akagi Middle School only have the last summer left!" After hearing Sendou's words, Sawamura also replied seriously.
"That's right! Are you serious about quitting baseball after junior high school?"
"..., do you think I wasn't serious enough when I said it before?"
"No!..., I always feel like..." In the end, Sawamura said everything.
"..." And Sendou didn't speak either.
Even Sendou himself didn't notice that he was wavering.
I should have answered right away, but there was that slight pause and hesitation!
But soon, the hesitation in his eyes was covered up and replaced by determination.
"What about you? Will you continue to aim for Koshien with everyone in high school?"
"Of course!"
"Then come on!"
"..., I understand!" Sawamura finally replied with an accent as if he was angry.
"I'm very curious! Eijun!"
"Nani? (What?)" Sawamura asked reluctantly.
"What kind of adult do you want to be after high school?"
"Huh?" Sawamura was very surprised and had never thought about Sendou's problem.
"I never thought about it! It's too early to think about it now! Are you Ki-san (grandpa)?" Sawamura rarely complained about Sendou.
"Maybe! I'm really curious as to what kind of adult Eijun will become!"
"I don't know myself! What kind of adult I will become! And it will take a long time, won't it?"
"How long have we known each other?" Sendou suddenly asked.
"Tell me how long! Oh, one, two, three, four, four and a half years! Why are you asking this?"
"But I feel like these four and a half years just happened yesterday!"
"Huh?" Sawamura suddenly noticed the passage of time!
"That's right! It was like not long ago when I first saw you!" Sawamura also sighed.
"We met four and a half years ago! What about four and a half years later? We graduated from high school by then! Didn't we?"
"Alas!" Upon hearing these words, Sawamura's eyes suddenly opened wide!
Many people in Japan who don't study well are working right after graduating from high school, and it's very common!
"Eijun! Do you still want to play baseball in the future? Always...!"
"What do you mean?"
"You want to be a professional? A professional baseball player!"
"Professional! What do you mean?"
Not only Sawamura, everyone was shocked by this sentence!
"Nothing, just a casual chat!"
"Really? Of course I want to have a career or something, but I can't do it for someone like me!"
"That's right! Idiots can't become professionals!"
"What did you say? You guy! Did you just say Baga? Baga?"
The conversation that was originally like a conversation went astray!
Sendou also knows that everything is not yet mature!
Now it's just a vaccination for Sawamura.
It's not enough to only look at your feet. Sendou wants to teach Sawamura this.
But this night Sawamura unexpectedly gained the upper hand.
It should be said that Sendou is in a good mood!
"No matter how many times I smell it, it still smells so good! Whether it's the bedding, pillows or even the whole room, it smells so good!
How can I sleep like this! "Sendou sighed after entering the room.
"Yes, it's so pungent! It makes me sneeze!" Sawamura said!
"...!"
"Baga! That's not what you're talking about!" Sendou complained in his heart.
Even everyone else understood it, but Sawamura was the only one who refreshed everyone's understanding with his magical, idiot-like brain circuit!
"You straight man! (You have no right to say this!)
You won't find it this way...,
Alas! He just can find a girlfriend! And it also comes with a lot of fangirls!
If it's a novel set in ancient times or another world, that's the protagonist! You can even have a harem! How can it be repaired? "Sendou's mind is filled with resentment towards Sawamura!
Sawamura had an innocent expression on his face, and Sendou watched his expression change!
"What's wrong with you? Sendou?"
"There is nothing!!!
How can it be repaired! (Quietly)" In the end, this is the only way to discover my resentment!
Resentment from a single dog!
"I'm going to sleep! Huh! Fortunately, I'm smart, and the quilt smells the best!"
What the sleeping Sendou will never understand is that the so-called best smell is actually just his instinctive choice, the scent he is most familiar with.
So the quilt he has been sleeping on these past few days has actually been Ozawa!
This time Training Camp, because it was not easy for them to sleep on other people's quilts, they were given the quilts of the Baseball Club girls. The girls of Baseball Club used those used by other clubs.
Sendou That night, I had a very beautiful dream. I dreamed that I was surrounded by a group of beauties!
But when it was almost time to wake up, I always felt like I was holding something in my hands!
Squeeze it... it's a little soft!
"Is it silk?" Sendou muttered in his sleep.
"Huh? Silk?" Sendou, sensing something was wrong, opened his eyes and put the hand holding 'silk' in front of his eyes!
"What the hell is this!" Sendou, who was half asleep and half awake, said as he looked at the balled up thing in his hand!
Then he spread the thing out with both hands!
"This is...!
What's going on!!! "Sendou accidentally said it!
After realizing that he had lost his composure, he immediately covered his mouth!
"Why does this happen?
Didn't I already sleep for three nights? "Sendou already doubts life!
What was in front of him was a woman's underwear!!!
And it's the kind of briefs in the comics, very small!
It can be said that Sendou has lost his temper like this for the second time in so many years!
So he didn't realize that everyone had been woken up by the sound he had just made!
And looked at him, when he realized it was already too late!
And she even spreads her panties with both hands to watch!
Everyone is silent at this time!
"I want to die so much!" Sendou thought in his heart!
"Misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding! I don't know why I have this thing in my hand!"
"Sendou! Where did you steal it from? You underwear thief! I didn't expect you to like this kind of thing!" Sawamura said in a natural and harmless manner!
"I stole you! I like you! I was having a sweet dream, and I saw this when I woke up!" Sendou was already incoherent and said some unnecessary things!
"Sweet dream! I've seen this somewhere!
Um..., you...
Did you have a wet dream? "Sawamura said such unspeakable words as if he was showing off his knowledge!
