After Tanba was injured, the pressure within the team suddenly skyrocketed, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing, making people breathless.
Especially that night, Senior Tanba stayed in the hospital for examination and did not come back.
Even the most diligent seniors have no intention of practicing.
On the contrary, Sendou went out that night with a bat.
When everyone is depressed, one person is doing a mental simulation while swinging the bat alone.
No one could have imagined that when everyone else in the first grade didn't have much sense of reality, it was the usually lazy Sendou who first burst out that he didn't want to lose Fighting Spirit.
The next day,
The sky was unusually gloomy, which made the already heavy heart even heavier, and today was also the Drawing Lots ceremony.
"Are you still thinking about Senior Tanba?"
During the break, Fumino took the initiative to talk to Sendou who was looking out the window alone.
"Akila is so gentle! On the surface, she doesn't care about anything, but she is extremely sad inside!"
"Maybe! Do I look that depressed? To the point where I need comfort."
Fumino shook his head.
"If she gets depressed so easily, she wouldn't be the Akila I know!
You are so calm at all times. At this time, I think you already know what you can do and what you can only believe! "
"However, I still hope you can speak out when you are sad. There is no conflict between staying calm and not being sad!
I don't want to see you sad! "Speaking of Natural Airhead's attributes, Fumino hugged Sendou's arm.
"Really, how can you see that I'm sad?" Sendou put her hand on his head helplessly and out of habit.
"No! But I can feel it."
"Suddenly I really want to swing the bat!"
The conversation between the two people as if no one else was watching made the group behind them envious.
But at this time, no one will bother them.
When school was over, it had already begun to rain heavily outside. Baseball Club entered Indoor Practice Field, and Fumino, the managers, went back directly.
"Wow! There are so many schools participating!" Sawamura exclaimed as he looked at the battle list that had come down.
"Tokyo has already been divided into two war zones: east and west.
There are also fierce battle zones across the country with higher competition rates! "Xiaochun next to me explained.
And perhaps even more devilish than Tokyo is Osaka.
However, this is just because Sawamura is not famous yet. In the next few years, West Tokyo will be the most devilish place. Four teams of Koshien Semifinals and above will compete for a spot.
"There are five games before the finals!" Furuya also pointed to the match table and said.
The only ones who are really energetic are the first and second graders, while the third graders are still so depressed.
Sendou also held one in his hand. To be honest, he had completely forgotten the battles in his previous life. He only knew that there were only a few stronger opponents.
They all look the same, but apart from the first few, Mishimon, the other nameless schools cannot even bring up any memories just by looking at their names.
Of course, Seidou is the seeded team, so it will have its first match in the second round. That is, the winners of the two metropolitan schools, Mimon Nishi and Du Baihu, will face Seidou.
If you don't look at the battle table, Sendou may not know who the opponent is, but after looking at the battle table, you will know that the opponent is Mimon Nishi.
When Coach Kataoka was gathering, he talked about Tanba's injury and mentioned Kawakami, Furuya and Sawamura by name. They were needed to contribute to the team at special times.
As a Chinese teacher, a few words can make everyone unite.
Double Pitcher was completely handed over to Chris, and due to this unexpected situation, the training method of Double Pitcher could only be changed, with intensive training focusing on fielding and ball control, so that they can be used in official games.
And Sendou made a hundred extra swings every day. Don't underestimate this number. This time he really wasn't lazy.
Every time he swings the bat, he uses his powerful brain function to simulate the pitch in his mind, and then swings the bat to hit it, so that it has a practical effect.
It's just that not everyone can simulate the trajectory of the ball in their head. In the original book, only Raichi Todoroki and Captain Tetsu can do this.
Sendou's life is very simple, but some people are miserable because the final exam is approaching.
Sendou was also taken out of her dreamland by Fumino to give her tutoring lessons.
And Sawamura, who also slept for a semester, looked at the textbook as if it were a bible, and couldn't even understand the simplest basic concepts. After all, the attributes of this guy are still at the grade level of elementary school...
The tutoring in junior high school only added to his troubles. In fact, there was no learning crisis. Seidou High School was also a school for further education. If he failed, he would have to make up the exam. There were more subjects for the make-up exam and less time for practice.
The only good thing is that the passing score in Japan has always been the class average divided by two.
The advantage of this is that with different difficulty levels of the test papers, you can know whether the students really learned well or poorly, instead of a fixed passing score that even top students fail if the questions are particularly difficult.
Kanemaru Mama promised to help Sawamura with tutoring, but what he didn't know was what kind of pit he was getting into.
Furuya is miserable. He is not good at communication and doesn't even have anyone to save his life.
This is also where the Japanese have trouble and can be said to be well-educated.
They are very Young Master eager to help others when others don't ask for help, because they are afraid of hurting the other person's self-esteem, unless they know the other person very well and know that the other person needs help, but can't ask for some reason.
So it's not that Xiaochun doesn't want to help or isn't able to help, it's that Furuya didn't ask, so others wouldn't ask to help, for fear of hurting Furuya's self-esteem, they wouldn't even ask.
So Furuya escapes reality...
And Sendou was also troubled by the recent troubles and had no time to deal with them.
To be honest, Japanese high school courses are quite difficult, and there are even calculus-level questions that only domestic universities are exposed to.
Of course, there are not many parts involved in the first year of high school.
Recently Captain Tetsu and Jun-san were sent to Indoor Practice Field to pitch, so Sendou heard what Miyauchi-senpai said but didn't see it.
In addition to basic exercises such as attacking and defending, the amount of recent exercises has been greatly reduced. The purpose is naturally to help the team's players recover from the fatigue of the training camp while training.
Sawamura and Furuya have also made great progress recently.
Of course Sendou himself has made great progress, but he often cannot see himself clearly.
I feel that after I am no longer tired from the training camp, I feel more relaxed every day while training before the training camp.
This is characteristic of a substantial improvement in physical strength.
And as the starting players, the brass band has also collected the support songs that everyone in First Team wants for practice in the past few days.
Sendou's favorite Seidou was used, so he chose a more classic song. But what he didn't know was that the song he chose was the same as Harada Masakatsu.
From time to time, you can hear the wind band practicing in the stadium. Every time when you hear the music you have chosen, Sendou is so excited that you have the illusion that you are stronger.
Moreover, Seidou's Cheerleading Squad's clothes were very beautiful. I couldn't help but look at them several times, and then I was stared at by Fumino, which made me feel embarrassed.
The final exam is also over. Fumino scored more than 80 points in the math test, which is a very high score. This also makes Sendou's years of guidance not in vain.
Sawamura, with the help of Kanemaru Mama, barely passed the test with more than 30 points. As Sawamura said, perfect red spot avoidance.
Sawamura even cried when he saw the highest score of 40 points.
Sendou occupied the first position just like in junior high school. Anyway, the jaws of the entire Class A, Baseball Club members and all the first-grade teachers were shocked.
Although they had seen this scene more than once.
I slept all the time in class and failed all the exams...
And all this means that summer is coming.
On the day the exam is announced, the summer Back Number will also be announced.
"Now the distribution of Back Number begins. Those whose names are called come and receive them in order!"
"First is Back Number one, Tanba Koichiro!"
Senior Tanba was so shocked that he didn't move until the coach called him to go over to collect it.
"Don't be anxious, just take care of your injuries."
When Senior Tanba returned home, other seniors teased him about his bald head. No one expected that he actually took the joke seriously and shaved off his head.
Then Senior Tanba's head was violently attacked, and even Captain Tetsu naturally blended in and touched it for a while.
"Go ahead and publish!" Seeing that everyone was almost finished chatting, Coach Kataoka interrupted.
"No. 2! Miyuki Kazuya!"
"Hi!"
"No. 3! Yuuki Tetsuya!"
"Hi! Please obey!"
"No. 7! Isashiki Jun!"
"Yo Xi!!!"
"No. 8! Sendou Akira!"
"Here!"
"No. 9! Shirazu Kenjiro!"
"I'll do my best!"
Shirazu's answer is a bit cute. In any case, he defeated Senior Itai and got the last Back Number, while Itai could only get a number thirteen.
Furuya was still given a tutorial by the coach.
"The recorder is Chris, please!"
"Hi!" Senior Chris's expression was still so warm.
Finally, I would like to thank the managers for their continuous efforts.
The ceremony for the release of Seidou High School Back Number was also a pre-war swearing-in ceremony.
After the last sentence of Coach Kataoka, "Everything is for this summer," everyone was excited.
Coach Kataoka seems not satisfied yet.
"Yo west! Just do it like before!"
"Hi!" Captain Tetsu responded and began to surround Circle Formation.
"Are you going to say that second grade line again? Really." Sendou complained in his heart. (Said as if you were shouting along.)
"Tanba Don't use too much force!" Jun-san is indeed the attentive person.
"And Sendou, please speak louder!"
"...!"
"Who are we?!"
"King Seidou!!!"
"Who sweats the most?!"
"Seidou!!!"
"Who shed the most tears?!"
"Seidou!!!"
"Are you ready to fight?!"
"Oh!!!" Sendou, who had been lip-syncing up to this point, couldn't help but join in.
The main reason is that there have been too many things recently, which has put Sendou in a somewhat stressed mood. In addition, his personality is that calm, so there is a lot of backlog.
"With the honor of our school in mind, we have only one goal, which is to dominate the country!
Let's go!!! "
"Oh!!!" With the release of the last sound, Sendou felt that the heavy air he had accumulated all this time was swept away.
Koshien? Sendou Dominates the whole country without knowing what is there? The goal is lofty but this is not the purpose of Sendou.
But Sendou has a very simple mind and doesn't like the feeling of losing, that's all.
Summer Tournament finally opens.
The competition names are National High School Championship and East and West Tokyo Tournament.
Although there was no competition on the opening day, there were still many spectators.
A total of 260 schools from the East West Tokyo will attend. It will take them three weeks to go through brutal fighting and finally return to this Meiji Jingu Stadium.
The opening process is relatively simple, a bit like the Olympics. All schools enter in sequence, and then last summer's East West Tokyo championship returns to Victory Flag. Representatives of the two teams lead everyone to swear an oath, and then break up after deducting some simple speeches. The real waste of time is the admission of so many schools.
The weather that day was extremely hot and unbearable. Furuya fainted from the sun on the spot and was finally carried out by Sawamura.
Apart from the arena, when I was about to go back after taking a break, I met Inajitsu again.
Narumiya Mei cutely hides behind Harada Masakatsu.
The seniors and the others also regained their spirits.
Especially Sawamura, the guy who took the initiative to leak information, the spy bastard who called Narumiya Mei Inajitsu without any self-awareness.
"Ya-san! What's wrong?"
After the meeting with Seidou, Harada Masakatsu was sitting in the bus thinking deeply, and Narumiya Mei came up to ask questions.
"Nothing! That Sendou, I always feel like I've seen it somewhere before. It didn't seem like anything when I watched the video, but I feel this way every time I see it in person. It was the same last time and it's the same today."
"Have you thought about it?"
"I have no clue at all. It stands to reason that if you see a player of this level, you won't be unimpressed!"
"If you can't think of it, don't think about it. Just ask when you have the chance!"
"That's right!"
Almost at the same time, almost the same conversation occurred over Seidou, but it was a conversation between Sendou and Sawamura.
The next time these two teams meet, they really need a final.
The grouping on Seidou's side is not very good, and it really needs to go through a hard battle.
However, going through a hard battle can be a good thing or a bad thing for the current Seidou.
Needless to say, there is no need to talk about the bad things. If you lose and go home in the Solo Tournament, facing a strong enemy, it is very likely that the summer will be over due to bad luck.
The advantage is that Seidou has four first-year players, and three of them will play an important role in the summer. It can be said that the growth of Sawamura, Furuya, and Sendou in Summer Preliminaries will affect the upper limit of this team.
If there are no accidents, this continuous fierce battle will make the three of them grow significantly.
This is the original trajectory. The Sawamura Furuya at the beginning of this summer is completely different from the one at the end of the summer.
Practical combat is always the fastest way to make progress.
And the people who are most suitable for this method are the first-year students who have just experienced the cruelty of high school baseball and are growing rapidly.
Spring Tournament, Kanto Tournament are just for fun compared to Xia Tian.
It can be said that the intensity of the competition is not the same at all.
In the end it was too late... All I have to do is make up the leave application form.
