"What's wrong? Why didn't you use your chopsticks when you usually eat so much?" During lunch, Miyuki's annoying voice sounded in Sendou's ears again.

"I'm going to vomit! Let me slow down!"

"Hahaha! You're still far behind!" Miyuki This kind of laughter can really give people a headache sometimes.

"This happens to everyone. I bet you were not as good as me last year!"

"...!"

"I was much better than you when I was in first grade!"

"I kind of care about your pause!"

"Don't worry about the details!"

"But with your personality, you will probably throw it away secretly even if you can't eat it!"

"You guessed it right, this guy poured all the rice he couldn't eat into Maezono's bowl, hahaha!" Just when Miyuki was about to speak harshly, his best friend came to ruin it!

Looking at the expression on Sendou's face, even if you are thick-skinned, there is a limit.

Miyuki could only take a bite of tempura in embarrassment.

"Hey!"

"Where are you going?" Miyuki asked when Sendou sighed and stood up.

"Leave me alone! I'm going to get some juice or something to appetize!"

"That guy is indeed different from those Baga!"

"Huh?" Kuramochi Listening to this, why is it so unpleasant?

It feels like someone who can think of a solution when he can't eat is not an idiot.

Miyuki poured the rice into Maezono's bowl. Sendou used a drink to appetize it, but everyone else had to eat it! Hello!

"You want two bottles?"

"Yeah! The first bottle is an appetizer!"

"What about the second bottle?"

"Hmm...! It's also appetizing!"

"..." Miyuki almost choked to death.

"A joke! The second bottle is for when you finish the first bottle and lose your appetite again!"

"That's it!"

"Two bottles may not be enough!"

"...!"

"What's wrong?" Sendou asked strangely as Miyuki stared at him.

"Nothing!"

"I know what you want to ask, but you don't even look at how much I need to eat in one meal! You idiot!"

Miyuki Bet that this was the first time in his life that he was called a fool, but he just couldn't refute it!

Then Miyuki understood what Sendou meant by the first bottle of appetizer, and this guy drank the whole bottle in one go...

Then I saw Sendou nodded and touched his lips with his tongue, and started eating with a satisfied look on his face.

After repeated drinks, the appetite really regained. Sendou The meat on the plate disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Real or false!"

During this meal, Sendou, two bottles of drinks were really not enough, and I ended up drinking four bottles.

After finishing the meal, while eating the banana handed over by Fumino, the tacit understanding between the two made Kuramochi jealous.

Kuramochi dared to swear that the moment Sendou finished his meal and drank the last bit of drink, Fumino sent the banana to him from next to Sendou.

Sendou never looked in the direction of Fumino from beginning to end. While putting down the bottle with his left hand, he took the banana with his right hand and peeled it open. It was such a natural and tacit understanding.

Sendou's bite seemed to have broken Kuramochi's heart. It wasn't that he had any special thoughts about Fumino, but this tacit understanding made him so envious!

Then Kuramochi decided to rectify it severely in the afternoon...

Sawamura...

In this way, without anyone's knowledge, Sawamura was put on the head by this inexplicable dark cauldron in the sky.

Because Sawamura and Sendou were from the same school, because Sawamura had a "girlfriend", and because Sawamura didn't tell him Wakaba's contact information...

Kuramochi is also a master at finding reasons!

"Childhood sweethearts and so on, so hateful!...

... so good! Childhood sweethearts!

I envy my dead dad! "Kuramochi's silent declaration.

Sendou ate very quickly, and after eating, he and Fumino went for a walk.

He didn't even notice that the eyes of the group of singles behind him were about to burst into flames.

How dare you show affection around them.

Or Fumino, who is the prettiest in the entire academy and has the most adorable personality, but who makes them childhood sweethearts?

However, if Sendou knew the thoughts of these singles, he would say, I am also single! Fumino is just my sister.

However, if these words were spoken, it is estimated that Sendou would not survive the next day.

But the most ridiculous thing is that this is really a fact...

During the afternoon training, Sendou was ready to die. Before the training camp started, Sendou made up his mind to do whatever he wanted and practice until he was exhausted.

The reason is very simple. Sendou carefully analyzed the current situation, based on the remaining memories of the summer training camp in the previous life (although this one is so classic).

I have to lie down when I practice almost casually, so when I am tired, I can take a rest. The coach will definitely not be able to push myself so hard.

Poor physical strength means poor physical strength, and there is nothing to be ashamed of if you are tired.

It can be said that this guy is very self-aware, and going all out is also a kind of laziness.

So I forced myself to eat so much at noon.

However, the training that Sendou imagined and that Coach Kataoka squeezed out his last bit of strength did not come.

Instead, let him go to Batter's Box and let Senior Shinbara pitch, which is the outfield trio a few days ago and also a member of the Zhefan trio.

This senior pitched to Captain Tetsu in the morning, and the other two seniors Saitou and Kuwata were responsible for picking up the ball.

Moreover, the whole afternoon was spent practicing strikes. Sendou can understand this. This is because Coach Kataoka knows that Sendou has reached his limit. Instead of draining him now and risking injury, it is better to let him practice strikes while recovering, and then let him go back sideways in the evening after eating the evening meal...

We have known each other for two months now, Sendou, who is good at psychological analysis, and has a close understanding of Coach Kataoka's character and thoughts!

Coach Kataoka really thinks so, and Sendou is at a critical moment of batting and running-in, so real pitching will help even more.

Not only Sendou, but also several other first-year players. The only ones who can significantly evolve are these players who have been exposed to high school professional baseball.

Although I haven't decided whether to use Sawamura yet, Sawamura is so miserable at this time.

"Ping!"

Sendou hit the ball over the guardrail as soon as he came up. Senior Shinbara turned around and looked at it with mixed emotions of helplessness and happiness.

This year, with the addition of this kind of immediate combat ability, the more Sendou can play, the more willing they will be to assist him.

"Really, you can still fight like always!"

"Senior!" Sendou looked at him with a worried expression.

"Baga! If you are in the mood and are worried about me, then keep calling me!"

"Yes, we will provide you with support. All you have to do is keep fighting. The same goes for Summer Preliminaries. Keep fighting to show them how powerful our juniors Seidou are." Senior Kuwata also shouted.

"Then, please throw some more tricky shots!" Sendou touched his nose with some emotion.

"So strict!... Besides, Tetsu must have just told me this this morning! You bastard!" Senior Shinbara had a black line on his face.

"Hehe!" Sendou smiled evilly. This guy did it on purpose so that he wouldn't be moved to tears.

"Ping!"

"Ping!"

"Ping!"

One ball after another, it seems to be such a happy blow to others!

"Yes! That's it! Fight! Fight! Keep fighting! Fight hard and fast!" Sendou The more they fight, the higher their mood becomes.

Sendou Akira..., this junior who convinced them will take their hopes and prepare for Summer Tournament as a first-year regular selection.

The high mood, the sadness of losing the election, and the longing for a better future are getting more and more high.

Knowing that American Style likes Low Ball in Sendou's playing style, Senior Shinbara keeps giving him Low Ball, letting him have a good time. When Sendou is happy, they are also happy.

"Strange!

Suddenly I found that I have been a little sentimental recently.

When did it start?

By the way, when the supervisor announces the final list of First Team! "Fighting Spirit, the seniors are getting more and more high-spirited. Maybe others may not be able to see it, but Sendou, who is good at observing, cannot see it. He is naturally distracted, a shortcoming that gives countless people a headache. Sendou almost loves it to death at this time.

It is because of it that I am so good at observing and analyzing information from all directions.

"These were players who were the aces of their teams in their junior high school days, four-ball players and even two players at the same time.

I practiced hard every day for three years.

But in the end, he couldn't even compete in a high school official competition.

But the seniors put their hopes on the younger generations, generation after generation. "

Sendou thought that Seidou High School had not entered Koshien for many years. Starting from Coach Sakaki's entry into Seidou's famous family, this inheritance has been passed down for countless generations.

Sendou An inner monologue reveals the cruelty and sadness of famous families.

"Damn it! Don't be so emotional! It's not like you at all!" Sendou said to himself while striking.

"Phew!"

"No, this ball is too high! But it's good to see this kid miss it once."

Shinbara just shot a ball and found that he missed the shot.

The ball that was extremely depressed before and even a little close to the edge of Strike Zone suddenly turned into a Hanging Ball that was tens of centimeters above Strike Zone.

"Huh?"

"Ping!"

"Phew!"

The white ball flashed past Senior Shinbara's head at a faster speed, just like Laser Beam.

Senior Shinbara's eyes were wide open. Not only that, the seniors who volunteered to assist (monitor) Sendou to prevent this guy from being lazy also looked like bears and had no image.

Because of the shot just now, Sendou fired a flat cannon in an extremely awkward posture.

And with a diagonal line from the very outfield, it quickly rose and forced out the guardrail.

Hanging Ball and Sendou are usually as tall as Home Run, but they are definitely not more than 5 meters high, let alone guardrails that are 10 meters smaller by visual inspection.

Moreover, the quality of this ball is one of the best today, and may even be the best since Sendou joined the club.

And this time is different from before. From Senior Shinbara's point of view, Sendou knew that he could only throw Low Ball, and he also moved according to Low Ball's posture at the beginning.

But as soon as the bat started swinging, he quickly adjusted and swung the bat parallel to the ground, and the height of the bat parallel to the ground reached the position of Sendou's neck.

Therefore, Sendou's posture was extremely weird, and he lost his footing after the swing, and even almost fell down.

The action of the ball just now set off huge waves in the hearts of these seniors.

At that moment, from the shadow of Sendou, I saw the shadow of Tetsu, no, even stronger, completely from another dimension.

Sendou was a little surprised by the effect of this blow, but he didn't think much about it, he was just happy that the ball went smoothly.

"Xian...Sendou, just... just now that was...!" Senior Shinbara stammered and asked several questions that the seniors wanted to ask, and even several third-year students gathered around.

"I don't know!" Sendou, who was also lost in thought, recovered very simply.

"I don't know what...!" The seniors became anxious.

At that moment, Sendou's level instantly increased by several levels, as if a primary school student suddenly rose to high school.

That kind of twisted posture and such a powerful blow are something that you will never forget after seeing it once.

"Think about it carefully, what were you writing first?" A gentle voice remembered at this time.

Senior Chris happened to see the whole process just now. He was shocked and patiently enlightened.

"What is the reason that caused Sendou to suddenly evolve to several levels? We must find the reason." At this moment, this thought appeared in the minds of almost all third graders.

"I didn't think about anything. It can be said that I was a little distracted before!"

After hearing the first sentence, a group of people had their heads full of doubts. It's so easy to get distracted when you practice your emotions!

"It's not like I was distracted! I suddenly remembered something!" Sendou didn't want to express the regrets he had just expressed to his seniors. On the one hand, he was embarrassed, and on the other hand, mentioning this would hurt the hearts of these seniors.

Sendou is a very careful person. (Me too hehe...)

"Aren't you just distracted? Damn it!" Except for Senior Chris, the other seniors collectively complained in their hearts after hearing Sendou's explanation.

But they didn't dare to disturb Sendou's thoughts.

Inspiration is often just a moment.

"But I'm sure it has nothing to do with this.

When I just realized it, Senior Shinbara's ball had already been released. I didn't think about anything at that time, my body moved on its own. "

"Are you a beast?" After hearing that Sendou acted on instinct, the seniors collectively complained again.

"But you have used instinct to play ball before!" Senior Chris said the key point in one sentence.

Sendou sometimes relies on beast-like consciousness, that is, the body's instinctive reaction to hit. I know it, but this shot was so surprising that it was simply incomprehensible.

"I don't know if it was an illusion, but at that moment, I felt like the ball was slowing down!"

"The ball has slowed down?" Chris seemed to have caught something, but it seemed that he didn't.

"However, at least it is certain that at that moment you were extremely focused on this matter." Chris still made an analysis based on the current intelligence.

"Yeah!"

"It seems that there is no chance of mastering the feeling of that shot in a short time!" Senior Chris concluded.

The rest of the seniors nodded collectively, knowing that asking Sendou to concentrate was about the same as winning the lottery.

But... but!!!

They are very unwilling!!!

I said that Perfect Form (plug-in) of Sendou will not be triggered a few times throughout the high school plot stage, but it is a touching opportunity for everyone to see the effect.

I think although the tip of the iceberg has been exposed, after seeing this introduction, you can understand why you don't dare to open this for him frequently, right?

I barely managed 4100 words. Yesterday I got more than 25 votes again. However, after I finished asking for votes last night, I feel like I got a lot of votes from last night to today Daimon.

Awesome! Guys, please vote for me at the end.

Today, I was not in a good mood because of the rain. I started coding early and I haven't memorized today's words yet, so I updated it in advance and withdrew it first. Bye-Bye.
