[Comprehensive] Kazuya's happy life

Great victory in the first game, the baseball department was full of joy and encouragement.

On the way back to school, everyone has been discussing the just-concluded game, which seems to be a self-reflection meeting on the bus.

Supervisor Nishio smiled and let the disciples mess around.Even after returning to school, we only left everyone to do a few sets of the most basic basic training, and then sent everyone home early.The euphemistic name is - reward.

After a game that lasted nine innings, everyone was indeed exhausted physically and mentally. They cheered "Long live the supervisor!", and then happily dispersed.

Kazuya and Tatsuya did not insist on staying for additional training.

No matter how hard you work, you must know how to combine work and rest. It is also proper to give yourself a little vacation on the day of the big victory.

The two brothers took a combat bath in the bathroom dedicated to the baseball club, changed their clothes, and went home with Konan who was waiting for them in the club room——Haruko, Shingo, and Toshio had already returned home first, saying that they would Prepare a big meal and reward the two biggest heroes of the game.

"Seventeen strikeouts, infield grounders, eight infield fly balls, only three outfield balls, and all regular fly balls..."

On the way, Xiao Nan wrench counted the "results" of the two brothers today.

"The above are the results of the two debuts today! How about it, do you want to hear the specific personal results?"

She tilted her head and looked at Tatsuya with a smile.

Tatsuya turned his head, "Hmph!"

"Hey, don't be so stingy. As a fairly good pitcher, Tatsuya's performance today is good enough." Xiaonan leaned over and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, with a look of regret on his face: "It's just that the improvement There's still a lot of room left. Mmmm~ You have to work hard, Tatsuya!"

Tatsuya brushed her hand away:

"Thank you for your reminder, Manager Asakura."

"Well, easy to say, easy to say~" The girl continued to smile.

Tatsuya didn't quarrel with her too much—after all, she could see that she was in a really good mood, so he had to change the subject tactfully:

"Speaking of which, there are so many trivial data, it's thanks to you that you can memorize all of them. You are worthy of being the second student Asakura in the school year."

"Eh?" Xiao Nan was stunned, "But Nishio-senpai said that a qualified team manager must be able to know the statistics of each game of her players..."

"That refers to when you compare the game record book..." Tatsuya was speechless, "If you really want to memorize all the data of every game you have experienced in the future, who can be qualified for the position of club manager?" How many? Not every manager has a brain as good as Xiaonan's."

"Huh? Is this a compliment to Xiao Nan?"

"……no."

"What. Honestly admit that you are complimenting me, so what."

"I just don't want to see your smug face now."

"Who are you talking about being complacent? Tatsuya is the one who is obviously complacent. You have never stopped smiling since you came out of the court."

"Of course, right? We have won a big victory over our opponents. If I don't laugh, why should I still cry?"

"I didn't say that..."

— Well, as we talked, the two began to bicker again.

He also walked in front with a helpless expression.

But he didn't intend to intervene in the dispute between the two, so he simply quickened his pace and left them far behind.

After returning home, I found that the three parents were already busy in the kitchen of Uesugi’s house. Uh, no, it should be said that Haruko and Toshio were busy, and Shingo was simply standing by the door watching the excitement and chatting with them.

Kazuya saw that the three elders were in high spirits, so he didn't disturb them, but simply informed him of his return, and obediently ran to the living room to wait for dinner.

Sure enough, the three of them were satisfied with his understanding, and Haruko even found time to bring out a plate of freshly fried croquettes for him to fill his stomach.

So when Tatsuya and Xiaonan walked into the living room together, they saw Kazuya sitting at the low table with a relaxed expression, eating croquettes leisurely...

Tatsuya was instantly furious!

"Kazuya! You bastard!"

He actually left him and left alone!

Three steps at a time rushed over to snatch a croquette from his younger brother's hand, and Tatsuya threw it into his mouth while making vague accusations.

He also was not angry when he was robbed of his food, he just reached out and picked up another piece with a smile, and continued to slowly put it into his mouth, while responding innocently to the angry accusations from his brother:

"What do you mean brother?"

"..." Tatsuya was shocked!Why does this kid seem to be getting thicker?Could he not understand what he was talking about?

He glared fiercely at his younger brother: "Why did you run away alone just now? Why didn't you wait for me and Xiaonan?"

"Ah..." Kazuya spread his hands, "Brother is talking about this matter, I just think that you two seem to have some things that need to be resolved separately, so I just left the space to you. Isn't it?"

Tatsuya was also speechless.

In that case, Kazuya is indeed not easy to intervene, and it is neither side.

But that can't be a reason for him to leave him alone, what about brotherly love?

Tatsuya chomped on the meatloaf angrily.

Xiao Nan, who came in with him, said hello to He Ye earlier, and then ran into the kitchen to help, so only the two brothers were in the living room at the moment.

The two of them didn't speak any more, and in the quiet room there was only the slight clicking sound when the teeth chewed on the crispy fried meatloaf.

The small plate of croquettes Haruko brought was just to fill his stomach before the meal, and the portion was not large. The two brothers worked together and ate up the whole plate of croquettes in a short while.

Tatsuya rubbed his stomach, feeling a little relieved, at this moment, a cup of steaming barley tea was just right at his hand.

He turned his head and saw his younger brother looking at him with a smile——

"You did a great job today, bro."

"..." Tatsuya looked away uncomfortably, "You, you are not bad."

"Yeah. But after all, there was still a small mistake, and I couldn't make a good shot all the way."

"What, even a hero can't hit the ball all the way, right? You're very confident in your own abilities, Kazuya-san."

——It's just overconfident.

Kazuya propped his chin with one hand.

"What about brother?"

"what?"

"How far does my brother hope he can achieve? Besides entering Koshien?"

"Uh..." He really hadn't thought about this.

In other words, Tatsuya hadn't really given much thought to baseball.

In the beginning, he was "deceived" by Kazuya with a bet to enter the middle school baseball club.

I didn't intend to be serious at first, but being so excited by my younger brother, I simply jumped in with a stubborn "Then I'll show you!"

When I realized it, I didn’t know when it started, but I was completely addicted to it. Not only did I start to practice hard automatically and consciously, but I often even felt that baseball...is really interesting.

In one game after another, such thoughts gradually began to become clear and settled, took root and sprouted in his heart, and slowly, it seemed to become a part of his life, which made him finally understand, and he and Ye have grown up every day since he was a child. One day, one day is so self-denial that it can be called a rigorous self-training, what is the reason for persisting like this for several years——

Kazuya he didn't lie.

He didn't work so hard for Xiao Nan.

But baseball does have a great charm that makes people willing to sweat and work hard for it.

Finally, I realized what Kazuya said, "My favorite, from the beginning to the end, is baseball. Only baseball." In this sentence, how deep and sincere the feelings are.

But Tatsuya didn't quite understand his own thoughts on baseball.

He really likes baseball, whether it's training or playing, as long as he is playing baseball, he is very happy.

Slowly, I also understood the great joy and satisfaction that can be gained at the moment of success after working hard for something.

But he wasn't sure if that was all he wanted.

Right now, his goal is to join Kazuya and the Mingqing baseball club to score in Koshien, which all high school students dream of.

As for after entering Jiashiyuan?

To be honest, Tatsuya didn't think too much about it.

He also knew from his brother's confused expression that he hadn't determined his future path yet.

Although I really want to walk with Tatsuya all the way, and I don't want to lose what I believe in this life, the most reliable companion is also the most difficult opponent, but Kazuya doesn't want to control Tatsuya's life.

He persuaded Tatsuya to join the baseball club because Tatsuya has this talent and also loves baseball. He didn't want to do it all over again, but he still let Tatsuya miss this precious time for nothing, but his future life path is not reasonable. It was up to him to decide for Tatsuya.

So he just asked questions, but didn't say much else.

After all, this is Tatsuya's life.

Turning his head a little melancholy, Kazuya stopped bothering Tatsuya, who was obviously in deep thought. At this moment, there were a few light vibrations from the phone, and Kazuya tiptoed out of the living room, and ran outside to answer the phone.

Unexpectedly, it was Lian who called, congratulating him on his victory in the first battle.

Kazuya still feels very happy that his friend paid special attention to his recent situation when he was busy.

"Thank you, Lian." He smiled, "How are you doing? Is the filming of the new drama going well? I heard Mr. She said that this time I went to Hokkaido?"

"Well, because of the background of the script this time..."

Tsuruga Ren's tone and voice on the phone were as soft and low as ever.

He also listened to him quietly, with an unconscious peaceful smile on his lips.

——He didn't know that the person on the other side of the phone who was talking to him with a calm and steady voice had a complex and tangled expression on his face at the moment...

No.

Things can't be as the president said.

The corners of the black-haired young man's mouth were lowered, his tone was as gentle as his eyes were gloomy.

Standing not far behind him, through the reflection on the glass window in front of him, the manager who accidentally saw his appearance took two steps back unconsciously in horror——

Help!Who the hell is Lian talking on the phone with?

Why is there such a scary expression on...

She Xingyi silently stepped back a few more steps, until he could no longer see the reflection on the glass window clearly, then secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

It looks like it's time to talk to Uesugi-kun again.

he thinks.
