Ace of Diamonds: The Last Piece of the Puzzle

After the game, Kurosawa looked at Miyuki packing her things and thought: Is Kazuya feeling uncomfortable? He always fails because he is not a good pitcher, and he will not give up if he cannot bring out the full strength of the pitcher!

"Minano, are you okay? Let's go! What's wrong? Are you sad? You didn't play in the pitching game today or you failed? It doesn't matter! This is a training game for the supervisor!" Miyuki looked at Kurosawa and consoled him.

Kurosawa looked at Kazuya who was trying to comfort him and thought: Kazuya is still so gentle! (*^w^*)

"I'm fine, Kazuya! I just need to go back and practice for Kazuya's blows! Next time I play, Kazuya can't not give me support like he did against Fukiya this time! (ˉへˉ)" Kurosawa joked road.

"Hey! Nanye, you don't know how unfriendly it is to someone like me who guesses the ball if there is no one on the base!" Miyuki pretended to cry.

In the evening, in the laundry area of ​​the Qingxinliao baseball club, everyone was still discussing today's game.

"Today's game was so exciting! The attack in the ninth inning gave me goosebumps all over!"

"Although we lost in the end, I didn't expect to be able to force Hengxue to the point of desperation!"

"That's right! First grader Fang Gu is so good at shooting and hitting!"

"Second-year Kurosawa Minamino is also very good. That two-run home run was really hard to see!"

"Maybe this year I really have a chance to go to Koshien!"

"We also have to work hard!"

"That's right!" the players cheered one after another.

On the side, Sawamura put his hands on the washing machine and silently recalled Chris's words in his mind. He was tangled and confused. He didn't understand it at all. He thought: How can he admit it so easily? What on earth is he doing?

The next morning during the Second Army's garrison training, we could see the embarrassed little expression of Sawamura's little angel?(ˊ????ˋ)

"What are you doing, Sawamura!"

"Don't you even know how to relieve the pitcher?"

"Let me ask you, how do you play baseball in junior high school! Do you despise baseball?" This scene cannot be said to be exactly the same as that of Furigaya, but it is 80% the same |?w?｀)

The seniors looked at Sawamura silently running to the wrong place and said angrily: "It's not there. When the ball is passed to home plate, you have to go back to home plate to make up for it!"

"That guy actually made it to our school's baseball team," Naomichi Seki said in shock to Haruichi next to him.

"How come a guy with no baseball knowledge can join the second team? And we can only keep running!" Kanemaru thought unwillingly while running on the sidelines.

"Don't look around!" Sawamura was spinning around on the court not knowing what to do. At this moment, he happened to see Chris finishing his work and leaving, and he was instantly furious.

Let’s just say what are you dissatisfied with! They are better than you even if they have no motivation, but you are a rookie pitcher who doesn’t know anything and you are still looking around (=_=)

I have to say that Sawamura in the early stage was really in line with Chris's first impression, but the power of the direct ball system was too great, and Chris Senbei fell in a short while! ╮(╯▽╰)╭

After the club work was over, Takashima Rei sat on a chair in the lounge and elegantly crossed his legs and joked to Sawamura: "You said before that you never watch professional baseball games. Now you know that watching games is also important to learn!"

"Baseball is a sport played by nine people together. In addition to running, attacking, and defending, there are many more details to do! I hope you can learn this early, so that you can be paired with classmate Chris. You have Do you want to learn from him well?" Takashima Rei asked.

"I originally wanted you to pitch in the next practice match, but I think I have to cancel it if this continues." Rei Takashima threatened, looking at Sawamura's dissatisfied expression.

Sawamura was instantly frightened when he heard the last part, and immediately exclaimed to Takashima Rei: "What!"

At this time, Mi Xing opened the door and shouted at the door: "Xiao Li, can I borrow yesterday's records from you?"

Then he was stunned by the sight in front of him, and a black line slid down his head. He saw Sawamura kneeling in front of Rei Takashima and looking at him awkwardly. This scene was obviously a scene where parents were teaching their children a lesson!

"Don't look, don't look at me like this!" Sawamura yelled in shame.

"Hahahaha~ You are so funny! Hahahaha!" Miyuki felt like she was going to laugh.

"Did I really get the wrong person? This kid and Chris don't seem to get along very well!" Takashima Rei doubted himself.

"Yes! There must be very few people on the team who can get along well with him!" Miyuki sighed while sitting and looking at the scorebook in his hand.

"I don't think you know Sawamura. He is the one who knows the most about baseball on the team! I am also very good at observing the quality of players!" Rei Takashima explained.

"Although you say so, he has no motivation at all! He went back early today!" Sawamura gritted his teeth in dissatisfaction.

"Hey hey hey! That's because..."

"I want you to catch my ball! I have never been able to forget the sound of the ball entering my glove when I first came here. In previous games, I also wanted to get back that feeling when I pitched!" Ze At this time, Mura didn't see the expression on the corners of Miyuki's mouth that had just straightened gradually become colder. Otherwise, would he have dared to say the next words?

Miyuki thought: Is that why you will completely adopt a head-on confrontation?

The corners of Miyuki's mouth raised again, and he stood up, walked to Sawamura, knelt down in front of him, and comforted him: "Okay! Don't be so impatient! As long as you practice with him, I guarantee that you will grow significantly!"

"I don't want to partner with that kind of unmotivated guy! Why can that kind of person stay in the team?! If you don't want to play, just quit the team!" Sawamura said again, and hit Miyuki's weak point accurately. .

Miyuki suddenly felt like she had run away from home. She stepped forward angrily and grabbed Sawamura by the front of his shirt and threw him against the wall. He said coldly: "Your determination to climb up in the team is very impressive to the second and third graders." It’s clear. You know it after watching the previous games, but what you just said was too much!”

The atmosphere suddenly solidified. Takashima Rei stood up in panic and called Miyuki. Miyuki let go coldly and said: "Tsk, I'm really unhappy!" Then he stood up, walked to the table, picked up the scorebook, and prepared to leave.

"Xiao Li, I borrowed this book." Mi Xing said expressionlessly.

"Okay!" Rei Takashima replied at a loss as he saw Miyuki's rarely angry expression in front of him. Sawamura next to him had been so frightened by Miyuki's momentum that he collapsed against the wall.

Miyuki returned to the dormitory with an expressionless face and put the scorebook on the table, only to feel that her good mood today was instantly wiped out.

Kurosawa looked at Kazuya, who had a rare cold face in front of him. Based on Kazuya’s many years of experience as a partner, it was almost certain that someone had said something bad to someone he respected or cared about in front of him╮(╯＿╰)╭

Miyuki Kazuya himself would not be in this state if he was bullied. It would only arouse his fighting spirit. In addition, other things that had nothing to do with baseball would hardly cause his mood swings.

Don't ask why you know, the person involved saw the people from the Miyuki Education Team on the spot. Kurosawa thought that the scene should not be too exciting. Anyway, he didn't dare to move at the time, otherwise he would make someone who is not usually angry angry. It’s the scariest thing to look up!

Kurosawa thinks about the current candidates on the team and the timing, so there is no need to think about it! Except for Sawamura who followed Chris, others generally couldn't get in touch with Miyuki, let alone talk about it in front of Miyuki! ╮(ˉ▽ˉ)╭

Except for those who are outspoken and have no brains at all, most people will not be so powerless towards their seniors. You know, the concept of seniors in Japan is quite strong! ┐(─__─)┌

"Kazuya, what's wrong! You're so angry, tell me! What's wrong!" Kurosawa said gently. Although he had guessed it, he would not say it directly!

"Minano, I'm really super angry right now! That boy Sawamura actually said that to Senior Chris!!!" Miyuki became furious as soon as he thought of Sawamura's words.

"Ah! Kazuya, you are wasting your feelings by venting your anger on that boy Sawamura! Didn't you tell him the reason why Senior Chris is like this?" Sure enough, you knew it was Sawamura!

"Humph(?=Д=)?┻━┻I was interrupted when I was about to say that idiot(?｀⊿′)?"

"Hahahaha, don't be angry. I think Chris will be captured by Sawamura in a few days! But it doesn't matter if it breaks out this time. Who told you not to tell Sawamura why he thought he was following such a senior? Who would feel comfortable!" Kurosawa said calmly.

"After all, no matter how much you emphasize the greatness of Senior Chris, hearing is false and seeing is believing. With Sawamura's mind, are you being too harsh on him? "It's too damaging...

"They should be able to get along well with each other after a while. After all, after knowing the truth, Sawamura is not something ordinary people can resist because of his direct skills! Instead of getting angry with Sawamura, it is better to engage in arrests with Feng Gu Let’s practice!” Kurosawa complained, thinking that after all, the team that Sawamura and Chris were on last time could compete with our team, and we lost the first time we faced their combination!

"It's too much! Minamino and I have practiced well with Furuya, but when I was handling the ball, I felt like I was a wall. The experience was too bad." Miyuki complained.

"Speaking of which, Nanye, I wonder how you know so clearly! Were you outside the door just now?" Miyuki said suspiciously.

"You guessed it, I'm just that smart! But Ichiya, are you paying too much attention to senior Chris? Why do you feel that Chris as a catcher is more attractive to you than me as a pitcher? Sometimes I feel I wonder if you are a catcher, or if you have other feelings for Chris!" Kurosawa asked a question that he had been wondering about since his previous life. If it were Miyuki Kurosawa in his previous life, he would not have asked it! Because I know I can’t ask! _(:3　∠)_

"Ah! Nanno, what are you talking about! I only have respect for Chris-senpai!!!ヽ(`Д′)?" Miyuki said speechlessly.

"Oh⊙w⊙" Miyuki looked at Kurosawa's obvious disbelief and could only tell him a little about the past.

"Ah! Senior Chris is someone I have always admired, ever since junior high school, when his baseball team defeated my baseball team. Since then, I have been trying to think of ways to defeat him, but every time I never succeeded! It wasn’t until my sophomore year that I failed again. After the game, Xiaoli came to me and told me that Chris senior went to Qingdao High School and invited me to join. I decided to follow my senior and join Qingdao. At that time, I had already done I had the mental awareness to serve as his substitute for the past two years, and I was always ready to learn and absorb his knowledge of baseball and game reading ability to constantly impact and defeat him. But what I didn’t expect was that in the end, it wasn’t me who won him and let him He ended up directly ending his high school baseball career in that way!" Miyuki said unwillingly.

"Kazuya, as long as you and Chris seniors keep playing baseball, you will always have a duel. Why waste your mind here now! You have to know that this is the last year for the third-year seniors! You should have always wanted to Let’s repay Senior Chris! After all, Senior Chris is still in the team and hasn’t left, probably because of this reason! I want to witness with my own eyes other seniors from the First Army who are in the same class as myself walk into Koshien!” Kurosawa comforted.

"Of course I know, how could I not know! No one knows the pain of Senior Chris better than me! Now I don't even have the courage to walk in front of him. Every time I look into his lifeless eyes I feel like I'm about to suffocate and just want to escape!" Yu Xing said sadly.

Kurosawa looked at Miyuki like this and didn't know what to do. Kazuya was still a child! Although he matured very early because of a single-parent family, he was still a minor!

Kurosawa stepped forward and hugged Miyuki slightly, pressed his head into his arms and comforted: "Kazuya, you are very powerful! Very powerful! Don't feel that this is unfair. You are not as strong as Senior Chris. Something like that, because your importance in the team this year is self-evident! I think for senior Chris or Qingdao, your appearance at that time was like a timely rain! Otherwise, Chris now Senior, maybe it’s even more painful. The outside world calls you the savior of Qingdao. I totally agree with this title! The only two good pitchers in the first grade came here for you. Even I chose Qingdao for you. Tao, your importance to the team and Qingdao is self-evident. There will be no worse situation than now, Kazuya!"

"Minano, you..." Miyuki's eyes turned red instantly and she hugged Kurosawa. I'm really tired! The ace pitcher in the team, Tanba-senpai, is often uncooperative and always breaks down for no reason. Kawakami, who is in the same grade, does not have the courage to pitch against the wind. Although the third-year seniors are nice people and are not like those on the junior high school team, I am not what they are. The person I expected to fight alongside them and lead them, Kuramochi, who was in the same grade, was probably my only friend, but at that time there was nothing I could do!

I have long been accustomed to carrying a heavy load alone, but I didn't expect that I would still feel sad when you talked about it!

The two of them quietly enjoyed the rare quiet time. After a while, Miyuki pushed Kurosawa away slightly and said with a smile: "Thank you, Nanno! I'm not angry anymore! You can go play on your mobile phone! Or we can go practice ball." ?”

"No, you can't repay kindness with hatred, Kazuya! Don't you still have the score book that you haven't read yet? Read it quickly!" Kurosawa looked at Miyuki with red eyes and followed him to change the subject and went back to the bed to play. The phone is gone.

"Minano, you really don't look like a pitcher! Don't you like me?" Miyuki complained.

"Fragrant, you are the most popular. You can go practice with Fang Gu later! By the way, have you given him the fingerball to practice? If he controls the ball and doesn't practice other types of balls to enrich himself, he will be beaten sooner or later. Explode!" Kurosawa warned lightly.

"I know, but I don't have time recently! I will make time for him to practice." Miyuki said helplessly.

"As long as you remember it, it should be okay for Shitani to hold on for the first few innings. Whether you can win the summer meeting depends on the timing of Coach Kataoka's change of pitching! Ichiya, you also have to be decisive during the game. If the pitcher can pitch, he can pitch. , If you can't vote, you can't vote. Try not to be influenced by your emotions and affect your judgment. After all, you are the brain at that time, so you have to be awake and prompt Coach Kataoka in time!" Kurosawa said seriously.

"Huh?! Including you?" Miyuki looked at Kurosawa seriously to see if he was joking, but it was obvious that Kurosawa was not and really thought so.

"Ah yes! Including me..." Kurosawa turned around and replied seriously.

"Okay, I understand!" Miyuki said solemnly, and then the two looked at each other and smiled.

The conversation ended here, and the two of them turned around, one looking at the scorebook, and the other playing with his mobile phone.
