Ace of Diamonds: The Last Piece of the Puzzle

"In the first half of the ninth inning, Xibang attacked first. This was their last chance to score. If they could score five or more points from Kurosawa in this inning, the game would continue or directly turn defeat into victory. But we started from Judging from the current situation, it is really difficult to get five points from Aomichi's pair of pitching catchers! After all, we all saw Kurosawa's pitching performance in the first eight innings!"

"But baseball games only officially start in the ninth inning, and we still don't know how Kurosawa's physical exertion will be! Will Nishibon bring us a wonderful counterattack?! Can Aomichi hold on to the score? , ended the game with a clean sheet and entered the semifinals?!"

"In the last round of the game, both sides were very energetic! It seems that the final result is not yet certain!"

Kurosawa listened to the commentary in his ears and the cheers from the opposite side. Oh my, he has become the villain! How interesting!

"call out!"

"Bang!" The ball entered the glove and made a loud noise.

"Oh oh oh oh! No, no!"

"Isn't this guy completely useless?"

"The ball speed of 155 kilometers is faster than the ball speed of the falling valley!"

"Oh my God, this is the last round! Was he hiding his strength before?"

"I can't understand it at all! I just feel like he's a straight shot!"

"This is such a confusing game!"

Tajima looked at Kurosawa on the pitcher's mound in shock, "Hey!" Just kidding! In the last game, the speed of the ball started to increase. How can we play this!

Ah, yeah, seeing your shocked expressions makes me happy. It’s true that although you are very interesting, it would also bother me if you keep cheering there. It’s really noisy! Kurosawa looked at Miyuki's gesture with a smile, waiting for the next instruction.

Ouch! Sure enough, Kurosawa was just thinking about bad things when he was smiling! What a bad taste! But it is indeed much better now. It was too noisy just now, Miyuki thought secretly.

"Out!"

The smile on Tajima's face was almost unbearable. Isn't this ball too powerful? ! seriously! But you can’t throw too much at that ball speed! To me, it seemed like I just pitched a ball at the beginning. But at the end of the day, I still have a trump card, so I’m really not willing to accept it!

"The power of the ball is very strong, so be careful! But I don't know if that fast ball can't be thrown more or because it doesn't need to be used against me!" Tajima expressed his thoughts as soon as he returned to the dugout.

"Is it very heavy?!"

"Yes! My hands are still numb now!" Tajima complained helplessly.

"It's so awesome!" Mihashi couldn't help but envy him. Both the speed and power of the ball are so awesome!

"Hey, Mihashi, don't admire other pitchers casually!" Abe couldn't help but lectured.

Soon the second bat was also thrown out. After returning to the dugout, he said directly: "The ball is not powerful when playing against me, but the ball speed is very slow! It's the kind of slow ball you should have seen just now. The ball is more powerful than the ball." Sanqiao’s is still slow. I’m sorry, I was too anxious and didn’t seize the opportunity!”

"It's okay, let's watch Abe's performance!" There is no time to complain about others now. After all, it is a fact that the opponent's pitcher was not defeated in this game, and now every hope is shattered in front of our eyes. Everyone can only hope to win. A single seedling.

"Abe, fight out!!"

"Come on Abe!"

"For Mihashi's sake, call me!"

Abe stood in the strike zone and listened to the increasingly outrageous cheers from the seniors. He really... took a deep breath and immersed himself in this duel.

The catcher guessed his pitch last time, so that means I can also guess his pitch. The pitcher knows only straight balls. Although the time difference is difficult to grasp, he probably won't use fast balls against me. , that goal just now was probably just to change the atmosphere on the court.

I just need to know where he is shooting. If I want to hit it right away, the opponent will not give me a second chance. Although the brainstorming has begun in my mind, Abe's expression is still calm and there is no emotional change.

Let's bet that the first ball is an ordinary straight ball with no change at all! Abe watched the ball fly over and hit it hard. The touch on his hand told him that he was right. Sure enough, what this guy fears most about the ball is luck! My luck is actually quite good today! But it’s really heavy!

Kurosawa looked at Abe standing on the first base bag and raised his eyebrows in surprise, this is amazing! I actually got it right! After all, when I strike out, except for the specific instructions given by Miyuki, I usually just play it from an angle at will. Sometimes I don't know what kind of pitch I will throw in order to save effort!

The ball just now must have been quite heavy, so being able to hit such a low ball is very impressive! That kid, or did the brainwave just now coincide with Kazuya's? ! Kurosawa complained silently.

"Minano, don't worry! Deal with the next attacker! This can't be taken lightly!" Miyuki quickly asked Kurosawa to come back to his senses. We're in trouble! If an accident like this happens at this time, you must not be anxious or affect your mentality!

"After Seido got two outs, his momentum was cut off by Nishibori's three sticks! The line was extended to four sticks again. This time he will break through Kurosawa and continue his hope of winning!"

Kurosawa nodded and looked at Sano who was standing in the strike zone very seriously! Except for some people who were deceived by their opponents and put on base, this guy actually got a hit in the last duel!

Let’s have a good fight this time! Kurosawa couldn't help but think excitedly, it's been a long time since he felt like this! You can only experience it in the game, this feeling of blood burning all over your body in a fierce collision with a top hitter.

"call out!"

"Good shot!" The first ball was missed! It seems that he can't adapt to your ball speed, so let's hit a super slow ball here.

"call out!"

"The outside world!"

Very good, that's two good balls, and finally a deceleration ball to finish him off! Miyuki made the final gesture.

Kurosawa nodded and I won the last out count without mercy! It looks like I won this duel! Monster beater Shuzo Sano!

"Phew!" I won't let this game end like this. As if feeling Kurosawa's fighting spirit, Sano directly showed his spirit. Watch the ball fly and be ready to swing at all times.

Miyuki watched as the white ball and the metal bat were about to pass by, but were stopped artificially. For a moment, his heart seemed to stop.

"Bang!" Miyuki was awakened only by the crisp sound of the ball hitting the bat.

"Boom!" The dust settled in an instant, and the ball hit the scoreboard straight up.

"Ahhhh!"

"Sano is so awesome!!"

"As expected of a monster beater!"

“That’s awesome!!!”

"We knew you could fight it out!"

The audience cheered, and the number on the scoreboard jumped to two. It was clear that the two sides were still three points behind, but the audience felt as if they could see Xibang's victory again.

Kurosawa looked at the change-up ball that was sent flying far away. He clicked his tongue in displeasure and covered his face. He thought to himself, wouldn't this make me just like Naru? ! It’s too unreliable! What kind of weird fate is this? ! Could it be that Ming was cursing me just now? !

Miyuki immediately reacted, called timeout, and ran onto the pitcher's mound. Too bad! There is really nothing more troublesome than the last out number. I hope Minano is fine!

"Minano, are you okay? It was my mistake just now, don't worry about it! Just concentrate on dealing with the next batter!" Miyuki reassured.

"Yes! That's right! You blame this kid Miyuki for this kind of thing!"

"Yeah yeah!"

"Hahahahaha, this is so interesting! This is how the game is interesting! What a pity, this is the last round!" Kurosawa couldn't help but laugh out loud, looking at Sano who had returned to the rest area. , ah, it seems that there is no chance to meet in high school.

"It's over, no way! Kurosawa-san, why are you still laughing? Is everything okay? Coach, should you go and get Kawakami ready now!" Ota couldn't help but exclaimed.

Kurosawa's sudden laughter frightened everyone in Qingdao half to death. After all, Kurosawa's mood was always as stable as that of an old man.

People sometimes say privately that Kurosawa's physical and mental age are actually different. It's rare to see him so lively, and they all wonder if it's this home run that excites people so much!

Several people in the outfield are also worried, especially the boy Fang Gu who has begun to think about pulling his senior down, and of course a few people in the bullpen.

"Well! It seems that you are completely fine! Then I'm relieved. You guy just kept silent and scared me to death! But now I'm relieved, there is only one out, let's end this game directly! "Sure enough, Miyuki knows Kurosawa best! Looking at his cheerful look, you can tell that he is just happy to see Xie Xie at most, and it does not affect his own mentality at all.

"Ah haha, it turns out it's okay! It kept us worried for so long!" Kuramochi couldn't help complaining.

"It's better not to laugh for no reason next time! It will affect Qingdao's image to a certain extent!" Ryosuke smiled and touched the knife. Since it's okay, I'm relieved.

"Although he was hit with a home run, Kurosawa didn't seem to be affected much!" Chris said calmly.

"Yeah!" Chris looked at Coach Kataoka who remained motionless even after Kurosawa was hit with a home run. He had no intention of letting anyone in the dugout prepare. It seemed that he really believed in Kurosawa!

"At the end of the game, Aomichi ended the game with a three-point lead and secured a spot in the semifinals. Although Sano hit a two-run home run in the ninth inning, it didn't have any impact and he struck out cleanly. He defeated five batters without leaving any holes for the opponent."
