Chapter 70: Li Lei, of course not an ordinary person
"Wait a minute, how do you know that guy is under 15 years old?"
When everyone was lamenting before, Kuramochi Yoichi didn't pay attention.
But now after repeated discussions with Miyuki Kazuya, he suddenly found something wrong.
Although their opponents in today's game were specially selected by them.
But in fact, the Seido High School baseball team had only heard about the Yakushima High School baseball team and knew their recent record.
Director Kataoka thinks this is a good opponent.
It just so happened that the opponent asked Qingdao for a practice match.
Director Kataoka then readily agreed.
Director Kataoka himself also wanted to take this opportunity to test Sawamura Eijun and Chris.
During this period, not only the practices and games of the Yakushima High School baseball team went smoothly.
The second team of their Seido High School baseball team also won consecutive games in practice games.
With the outstanding performance of Chris and Sawamura.
They have won several practice games in succession.
Although these two people have not yet been promoted to the first team, for the players of the Seido High School baseball team, it is basically a certainty that they will be promoted.
This last scene was not so much a test for them.
It would be more appropriate to test the remaining players.
The Seido High School baseball team is short of four players.
Previously, only one person, Jiangu Xiao, was promoted, but now there are still three spots left.
While the two were talking, Maezono had already been struck out.
Li Lei successfully got the second out.
There was absolutely nothing that could be done about Qian Yuan's pitch to Li Lei.
He could only watch the white baseball pass through his eyes over and over again.
Returning to the front garden of the rest area, I couldn’t be more upset.
He kept hitting the bat with his head, making a thumping sound.
The young man was very unwilling.
But there's no use being unwilling.
The strength gap between the two sides is almost obvious.
When Li Lei increased the speed of the ball to 140 kilometers, he had no way to hit the ball.
Let alone hitting the ball, it was difficult for him to even touch the ball.
Maezono, who had been working very hard, became more and more annoyed as he thought about it.
He clearly wasn't lazy for a moment.
Now, he is already the 4th baseball player in the second tier of the Seido High School baseball team.
Ordinarily, the next step would be for him to be promoted to the First Army.
Work hard with the seniors and make a splash in the summer competition.
But he was like this, and now he couldn't even hit a pitch from a first-year pitcher on the Yakushima High School baseball team.
What dignity does he have to advance to the first army?
Qianzono didn’t know.
He was unable to hit the ball, but in the eyes of the first-place players on the Seido High School baseball team, it was perfectly normal.
"The ball speeds of the three balls are 139, 138.5 and 140.5 respectively! Not only is the speed of each ball very average, but the quality of each ball is also very high."
"In addition, the ball was thrown from a corner, so it was impossible to hit the ball out of the front court. It is very normal."
"There is no way this first-year guy is a nobody!"
If we say that at the beginning of the game, the players of the Seido High School baseball team still had doubts in their hearts.
Now, they can basically be 100% sure.
Li Lei is definitely not an ordinary player, and he is even less likely to be unknown.
"But I have searched for his name on my mobile phone before, and I have never heard of this person..."
Kuramochi Yoichi asked with a puzzled look on his face.
After seeing Li Lei's pitching, Kuramochi had already determined that Li Lei could not be a nobody.
So he deliberately used a junior student's mobile phone to search for Li Lei's name.
As a result, nothing was found.
But that's not the weirdest thing.
The strangest thing is that he doesn't know, but Miyuki Kazuya seems to know Li Lei's information.
How can this be?
Miyukiichi's search method should be the same as his. He didn't find anything on the Internet. How could Miyukiichi know?
Facing Kuramochi's puzzled gaze, Miyukiichi smiled and raised the phone in his hand.
"This phone isn't yours?"
Kuramochi could tell at a glance that this phone was not one that Miyuki Kazuya usually used.
For the price of this phone, you can buy at least two of Miyuki’s previous phones.
"Of course it's not mine. It belongs to senior Chris. Before he went on the field to attack, he specifically gave his phone to me for safekeeping."
After Kuramochi got Chris's cell phone, he was immediately confused by the dense English on it.
With his grades, it is obviously not easy to understand the content inside.
"What is this stuff?"
Facing the confused Kuramochi, Miyuki didn't show off.
"It is true that our search server cannot find it, but there is information about Li Lei in the English reports related to baseball!"
"I go!"
"He is a member of the U15, a typical national-level player. He is also the team's ace. In previous games, he has led the team to the quarterfinals."
"Isn't that right? I've watched all the U15 eight-to-four games, but haven't I seen this guy?"
"Of course you haven't seen him, because he was hidden by the team in the 8-4 game."
Hidden in the snow?
Kuramochi Yoichi's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he looked at Li Lei who was throwing the ball.
At this time, Li Lei had already started a duel with Chris.
Li Lei is full of firepower, but even Chris can't do anything good.
The 140-kilometer fast ball is still pitched in the corners.
Chris could only barely touch the ball. It was not easy to hit the ball into the field, let alone get a hit.
Even Chris is struggling.
What is certain is that it is already very difficult for players from the Qingdao High School Baseball Team to deal with Li Lei.
They are no match for Li Lei at all.
Although the second-place players of Seido High School's baseball team cannot be considered the top players of their age group by any means.
But compared to Li Lei, they are at least one or two years older than Li Lei.
For players of this age group, an age gap of one or two years often means an insurmountable gap.
Under such conditions, Li Lei could still suppress the main players of the second tier of the Qingdao High School baseball team, and they had no temper at all.
After Chris and Li Lei struggled with the ball for a few times, they gritted their teeth and hit the ball out.
The baseball flew to the front of Li Lei, but Li Lei directly put it into his glove.
"Snapped!"
"Out!"
Three outs, offense and defense exchange.
"How could such a performance be hidden in the snow?"
Kuramochi Yoichi asked incredulously.
"It is said that a conflict broke out with the coach of their team, so they were directly hidden by the coach. Of course, they also stopped in the top eight because of this. Otherwise, they still have a certain probability of advancing to the semi-finals! Although the probability is not very high.
Chapter completed!
