"Ah, this, haha, hehehe..."

Todoroki Raizo rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, looking like he didn't know what to say.

"Shame! How can you be someone's father when you run away like this?"

Hong Leishi didn't even stutter when he accused his father.

"With such astronomical figures, do you think we are a rich family? How can we afford to pay?"

As the father and son spoke, they struggled together.

Of course they couldn't really fight, they were just pretending to each other.

This kind of relationship makes Comrade Li envious.

"The relationship between these two men is so good!"

Although Comrade Lao Li considers himself a good father, it seems that he has never been like this when getting along with Li Lei.

Although he only wanted to make friends with his precious son, Li Lei always acted like he was keeping others away from him.

"How about we try too?"

Li Lei asked in a low voice after hearing Comrade Li's emotion.

Looking at his son, who was half a head taller than himself, Comrade Li had an embarrassed expression on his face.

"Forget it! It's better for us Chinese fathers and sons to get along with each other in a traditional way. The excellent traditions of our ancestors cannot be lost."

The two men soon decided the winner.

Todoroki Raizo, who had won the victory, looked proud.

"This kid is fine! However, he shouldn't be able to catch your ball. If you still want to continue the duel, should you consider changing to a catcher?"

Todoroki Raizo's proposal was very tempting to Li Lei.

"I am honored to be a partner with a professional star player, even if he has retired!"

"Oh, you know me?"

Todoroki Raizo raised his eyebrows in surprise.

He has been away from the professional golf course for more than ten years.

To say that older fans can recognize him, Todoroki Raizo is not surprised at all.

His reputation for being a powerful player was very resounding in the professional arena. There are a few fans who still remember him, which is not surprising at all.

But Li Lei looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old.

When he was dominating the court, Li Lei was most likely still a suckling baby.

How could he know himself?

"As long as I can find videos of outstanding players in the professional arena, especially outstanding pitchers, I will do some research on them."

Li Lei didn't give in, he directly answered Hong Lei Zang's doubts.

"Studying excellent pitchers, could it be that your boy is also a strong bat?"

Todoroki Raizo asked in surprise.

When he was teaching his precious son, he once asked his son to do similar things.

Search for videos online and watch pitches made by elite pitchers in the major leagues and professional arenas. Use those pitches as a model and have your son do imaginary exercises.

"That's not..."

Li Lei shook his head and denied it, but he didn't explain too much.

"Now that you've decided, let's change the equipment!"

The showdown continues.

After Todoroki Raizo changed his equipment, he took the initiative to discuss tactics with Li Lei.

"What kind of ball do you know? How about controlling the ball?"

"I just use straight balls and finger pitches. As for ball control, I can almost divide the strike zone into four equal parts."

For a good changeup pitcher, ball control is the lifeline.

Ball control is even more important than ball speed.

If you can't throw the ball to the corners, you don't have excellent ball control.

Then it is very likely that all your change balls will become bad balls.

"A ball speed of about 130 kilometers, a ball control equal to 4% of the strike zone, and a changeup ball that is enough to make Lei Shi miss his swing?"

Todoroki Raizo was quite surprised and looked at Li Lei in front of him.

Although only a cursory observation...

But judging from the information revealed by Li Lei himself, he should not be an unknown person.

This is a pitcher with a high degree of completion, and the outstanding pitchers who pitch in Koshien may not be better than him.

"Have you trained with any team before?"

Faced with Todoroki Raizo's question, Li Lei just nodded slightly and did not elaborate.

"That's really fun!"

Todoroki Raizo narrowed his eyes slightly, then squatted down at the catcher's position.

After squatting down, he did not forget to tease his stupid son.

"Your opponent today is a little bit stronger. Your three-legged cat's swing may not even be able to touch the hair of other people's pitches."

A simple provocation method, but surprisingly effective.

"Jie Jie!"

Hongleishi holds the bat in his hand, his eyes full of surging fighting spirit.

He turned to look at Li Lei, who was throwing the ball, as if he were looking at the big boss in the game.

There is tension there, but also excitement...

This guy's adrenaline has been completely aroused by his father's words.

Li Lei, who was preparing to throw the ball, felt fighting spirit surging in his heart.

This wonderful father and son made him feel particularly interesting.

In this case, he wanted to learn more about the opponent's swing.

"The next ball is the fork ball!"

Of course, Todoroki Zang cannot interfere in the showdown between Li Lei and Todoroki City.

So the person responsible for signaling was actually Li Lei.

It's up to him to decide what pitch he's going to throw?

As for why he reminded Todoroki Raizo, it was of course to prepare his partner mentally in advance to prevent the baseball from hitting him.

"The first ball just now was a fork ball. Is the second ball also a fork ball?"

Todoroki Raizo had doubts in his mind, but he didn't say them out loud.

Li Lei, who was in charge of pitching, raised his legs high and then dropped them heavily. As the center of gravity of his body shifted, the baseball in his hand also whizzed out.

"call out!"

Facing the flying baseball, Hong Leishi's eyes flashed with fire.

coming!

here we go again!

The ball that he had been unable to hit before now appeared in front of him again.

This familiar feeling makes Honglei City's blood boil.

He held the bat tightly with both hands, and when the baseball came to him, Hong Leishi didn't hesitate anymore.

He swung the bat out of his hand cleanly.

"boom!"

The collision between lightning and flint.

The bat hit the baseball firmly, and then the baseball flew out like a small missile.

"puff!"

The baseball that flew out finally hit the dam by the river. The ball directly hit the earthen dam and made a small hole of 20 centimeters.

"Wow!"

Seeing this scene, Mishima and Qiuye all jumped up excitedly.
