Chapter 50: Eijun Sawamura
This world is unfair.
In the past, the players on the Yakushi High School baseball team had only heard this saying, but had no personal experience.
But when I actually arrived at Seido High School, I saw the players of the Seido High School baseball team training hard, especially the luxurious facilities of their team.
The players of the Yakushima High School baseball team truly experienced the cruelty of this society for the first time.
They are both high school students and baseball players.
But they and the players of the Seido High School baseball team seemed to live in two completely different worlds.
Take a look at the training the players of Seido High School’s baseball team undergo, take a look at their training facilities and venues...
This is what professional players should have.
On the other hand, they are just a bunch of grassroots.
Such a strong contrast made the players of the Yakushima High School baseball team feel angry.
The contrast is too strong.
It's as if the Seido High School baseball team is the destined protagonist, and they can only be supporting roles.
The players on the Yakushima High School baseball team felt extremely unwilling.
This kind of unwillingness is similar to that of an ordinary second-level student who meets a 985 student from a prestigious school.
Even if they know in their hearts that they are not as good as others, they are not willing to lose to each other.
At the same time, there is also a hatred of the rich at work.
In short, the players on the Yakushima High School baseball team are not happy with the players on the Seido High School baseball team.
Now the two sides are about to play a match.
The pharmacist players, who had been holding back their energy to defeat them, became more determined this time.
They want to win, and they must win.
Not only must we win today's game, we must also win beautifully.
"Please wait a moment, the First Army's practice match is about to end. After that practice match is over, this one will start again."
A chubby figure took the initiative to run over and greeted Raizo Todoroki apologetically.
"It's okay, it should be. Our players also need to breathe a sigh of relief."
Todoroki Raizo said, curious in his heart.
The Seido High School baseball team has two fields and can hold practice games at the same time.
But the Seido High School baseball team had no such arrangement.
They separated the practice games between the First Army and the Second Army, and seemed to have to finish the First Army's practice games first, and then play against the Second Army.
The Qingdao First Army's practice match has come to an end. It's now the 8th round. It won't take long for the match to be over.
The score on the court was 11:2.
Facing an opponent at the top 16 level in Tokyo, the first team of the Aomichi High School baseball team almost crushed the opponent and took the lead.
At this time, the players of the Yakushima High School baseball team had no time to watch Seido's strength.
After all, that game was coming to an end, which meant that the game between them and Qingdao Second Army was not far away.
The players from the second team of Qingdao have already started to warm up before the game.
Li Lei and the players of the Yakushi High School baseball team naturally had to find a place to warm up.
Friends who need to go to the toilet will also take this opportunity to solve it.
Zhou Hao and Qiuye are the two that need to be resolved.
"Didn't you solve the problem before getting on the bus? Are you too nervous if you go again now?"
Mishima shouted behind the two of them.
Zhou Hao and Qiu Ye speeded up their pace unconsciously.
Qingdao's baseball club has a dedicated restroom. Zhou Hao and Qiuye didn't waste too much time and came out after finishing their work.
The two came out of the bathroom and returned to where the Yakushima High School baseball team players gathered.
On the way, they happened to pass by an open space.
It was in this open space that Li Lei and the others met a lonely young man from Qingdao.
This young man was wearing the uniform of the Seido High School baseball team. He looked handsome, but he had a silly expression on his face and didn't look very smart.
When Zhou Hao and Qiu Ye passed by, the boy was spinning his arms back and forth.
"Is this Tai Chi practice?"
Zhou Hao muttered softly.
Qiu Ye next to him slapped his forehead helplessly with his hand.
The three guys around him are indeed more troublesome than the last.
"What Tai Chi? This is an exclusive secret technique taught to me by Master Chris. It is used to relax the shoulders and arms."
The boy who was moving his arms stopped immediately after hearing Li Lei's words.
Then he looked Li Lei up and down.
"You are a player on the Yakushima High School baseball team, right? Are you a first-year student too?"
The boy, who doesn't seem very smart, is very direct when asking questions.
No beating around the bush at all.
Li Lei took off his jacket directly, revealing the Yaoshi High School competition uniform.
He turned around and let the young man clearly see the serial number on his body.
No. 18!
Even if Li Lei didn't say a word, he had already demonstrated his identity with practical actions.
He is a player on the Yakushima High School baseball team.
And in the next practice game, he will 100% play, and may even become the main player.
In the previous practice games, Pharmacist High School did not retain any trump cards.
Shunpei Sanada was regarded as the secret weapon of their team by Raizo Todoroki.
Although Sanada will be arranged to play in games, he only serves as the team's first baseman and outfielder, and has never pitched.
At this stage, the Yakushima High School baseball team has an exposed pitcher.
Only Sanye and Li Lei.
Yuuto Sanno was originally the team's ace, but Li Lei's identity was so eye-catching that they couldn't hide it from anyone who was really interested.
Since I can't hide it, I won't hide it anymore.
Li Lei is now well-known in the Yakushi High School baseball team.
Players from many teams in Tokyo know him, although the team's No. 1 player is Sanno.
But almost everyone thinks that first-year Li Lei is the real ace of Pharmacist High School.
"Are you that international student?"
The silly-looking boy's eyes widened in surprise.
When he didn't say these words, Li Lei only regarded this silly young man as an ordinary freshman in Qingdao.
After all, this boy doesn't look like a powerful player from any angle.
But his words successfully aroused Li Lei's vigilance.
"Will you also play in this game?"
"Of course, I'm the starting pitcher for today's game."
The silly young man said with pride.
The coach of the Seido High School baseball team personally guided the practice game, but the starting pitcher was a freshman.
Moreover, he has already passed the selection process of Seido High School and is now playing as the main pitcher of Seido Second Army.
"Yakushi High School, Li Lei, please give me your advice!"
I don’t know if it’s intuition or subconsciousness.
Li Lei always felt that his entanglement with the young man in front of him would last for a long time.
"Aomichi, Sawamura Eijun, please give me your advice!"
The silly young man followed Li Lei and said.
Just as the two introduced themselves, the Qingdao First Army's practice match ended.
The score was fixed at 13:2.
"It's our turn, you guys, hurry up!"
Mishima was in the distance, waving to Li Lei and Qiuye.
Sawamura Eijun's companions were also calling him.
Chapter completed!
