Chapter 10: Invitations(1/2)
"This time, I won!"
Li Lei shot the ball with a proud smile on his face.
Being able to defeat Honglei City in the second round undoubtedly made him very excited.
"One foul, one strike, just two strikes!"
Mishima, who had just praised Li Lei for his handsome pitching, immediately raised questions after seeing Li Lei win.
"Ka, haha, hahaha!!!"
After finishing his swing, Hongleishi laughed again.
Although he didn't touch the ball, this guy felt like he had picked up a gold ingot.
Mishima glanced at his friend rather worriedly, and whispered to Qiuye beside him.
"It's over, Lei Shi was beaten stupid!"
"Don't talk nonsense, how is it possible?"
Qiuye shook his head in denial.
"He hasn't lost yet and still has a chance to score one goal, so why does he act like he's sick?"
Mishima still didn't understand.
However, Todoroki Raizo, who was squatting down to catch the ball, was not surprised at all by the scene in front of him.
He straightened up, stretched greatly, and then made a calming gesture towards Mishima.
"This stupid boy lost!"
Todoroki Raizo gave his decision as a referee.
"But……"
Mishima pouted, looking a little unconvinced.
Todoroki Leizang shook his head, and then looked at Li Lei.
"As I said before, one goal determines the outcome! The two of them were tied for the foul ball just now. But in the second goal, Lei Shi lost."
Despite his sloppy appearance, Todoroki Raizo was extremely upright when he said these words.
Just like when you teach them baseball seriously.
After hearing Todoroki Raizo's explanation, Mishima could only shut his mouth obediently.
Hong Leishi, holding the bat in his hand, replayed Li Lei's pitch just now over and over again in his mind.
The moment the baseball was released, it seemed as if it was flying out of the ground at an extremely low angle.
Then the baseball rises as it flies toward the strike zone.
But after approaching the strike zone, the baseball, which had risen slightly, suddenly fell down.
The trajectory was like a razor, catching people off guard.
"Come again! Come again!!!"
Hong Leishi grabbed the bat in his hand tightly, he couldn't wait to hit it again.
The goal just now left a deep impression on his mind.
He wants to fight again, twice, ten times, a hundred times...
Until the ball is hit perfectly.
"Stupid son, don't be shameless! If you lose, you lose. There is no chance to do it again on the court. Just wait for the next time!"
No one can undo what has happened in the past.
Not even the referee Todoroki Raizo can do it.
If they pester Li Lei at this time, let Li Lei continue to shoot the ball just now.
It's like they can't afford to lose.
Although Todoroki Raizo is thick-skinned, he is obviously not that thick-skinned.
Especially in baseball, he can't do that without a bottom line.
As for the shy Hong Leishi, he was even more embarrassed to bring it up directly.
"You won. According to the previous agreement, the baseball is yours."
Todoroki Raizo announced the result directly.
Taking the baseball in his hand again, Li Lei had a comfortable smile on his face.
This baseball was earned through his hard work, and it feels completely different.
Li Lei couldn't give any reason, but he was very happy anyway.
"Then let's meet again by chance!"
This showdown with Honglei City is of vital significance to Li Lei.
After entering high school, he was still hesitant about whether to continue playing baseball, but now he had made up his mind.
He's going to play baseball in high school!
He wants to see more powerful hitters, and he wants to see the style of Koshien.
In addition to the school's performance and reputation, he also had to inquire carefully about the strength of the school's baseball team.
Baseball is not a game that can be played by one person.
If Li Lei really wants to make it to Koshien in Tokyo, he must find a reliable high school and a group of reliable teammates.
Didong and Daocheng are both good choices.
First of all, they are all top schools in the country, and their admission rates are at the top of the pyramid all year round.
Secondly, there are the baseball teams of these two schools. Li Lei had heard of them before he came to Tokyo.
They should all be the top wealthy families in the country.
Just when Li Lei was rushing back to select the schools he wanted to apply for.
Todoroki Raizo, who was standing behind him, suddenly asked.
"Are you an international student who plans to study abroad?"
Li Lei looked at himself in surprise, even though he had a slight accent when he spoke Japanese.
But it would be a bit too much to say that the other party judged that he was going to study abroad based on this.
Besides, it's a holiday for students in Tokyo.
Li Lei looked at Todoroki Raizo in confusion, his eyes full of questions.
Todoroki Leizang stretched out his hand and pointed at Comrade Li.
Li Lei turned around and found that Comrade Li still looked like he didn't understand anything.
Of course, he also discovered the enrollment brochure in Comrade Li's hand.
In order to choose an ideal school for him, Comrade Li spent all his efforts, turning his hair gray and consuming countless brain cells.
According to Comrade Lao Li, he had never had such trouble filling out his application for the college entrance examination.
"I see!"
The other party had already discovered it. Besides, it wasn't a secret, so Li Lei didn't hide it.
"Yes, we are selecting the right school."
"I'm really sorry for causing you injury. But I really can't afford to pay millions. It's good for a single father and his son to make a living. In addition, the son is not living up to expectations...
…”
Todoroki Raizo spoke of her grievances out of nowhere.
This sudden turn of events made Li Lei dumbfounded.
He really couldn't understand, what was the purpose of Todoroki Raizo suddenly saying this?
On the other hand, Hong Leishi, who was standing by the side, his eyebrows were crooked with anger when he heard his father's words.
"how could you do this?"
His eyes were full of accusation.
"I am the one who works hard outside and works part-time to support this family! You, an unemployed vagrant who doesn't even have a job, have the nerve to speak so loudly here..."
Father and son once again staged a parent-child battle.
After winning the second time, Todoroki Zo threw out Todoroki City like garbage.
"Sorry, I made you laugh."
Li Lei really didn't know what to say, but Comrade Li next to him looked envious.
To be continued...
