Conan: Naruto

A middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman are standing scattered farther to the front right, outside the wall supported by barbed wire at the edge of the competition field.

The man was wearing a brown suit, white lining, and light blue tie. He was slightly fatter and less than 1.6 meters tall. With his right hand resting on the barbed wire fence, he glanced at the competition field and the school dormitory from time to time, seemingly restless.

The middle-aged woman is less than 1.6 meters tall, with brown hair reaching her chin, wearing an open button-up dark brown jacket with a white crew neck lining, and behaves in much the same way as a middle-aged man.

At this time, a baseball fell not far from the middle-aged man.

Hearing the movement, he turned to look at the baseball, took two steps, squatted on the ground, stretched out his left hand to pick up the baseball, stood up, and looked at a young boy who was rushing forward.

The boy was wearing a white baseball cap, a white baseball uniform with "Fix High School" written on it, and a professional baseball glove on his left hand.

He stopped not far in front of the middle-aged man, took the baseball thrown by the man with his left hand, looked at the man, took off his hat with his right hand to show respect, and politely thanked:

"Principal, please excuse me."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi looked at this situation and thought in surprise:

"The principal of their school came over to watch the students' baseball game?

Unexpectedly, Xiuhao High School attaches so much importance to baseball. "

"Bang!"

It was the sound of a baseball being hit.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi heard the movement, and turned their eyes to the exciting competition venue.

After 16 seconds, the game temporarily subsided. They looked again at the place where the middle-aged man and middle-aged woman were just now, and found that the man and the woman had left.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi didn't think too much, they looked ahead and continued to pay attention to the playing field.

after a while.

On the playing field, Xiao Kaji assumed a ready-to-throw posture, subconsciously raised his head to look into the distance, stared blankly, and froze on the spot.

"Pitcher foul, one ball!"

It was the sound of the referee's dedication.

In the next second, the auditorium of the repaired high school sounded encouraging voices one after another:

"Come on, Kaji!"

"do not worry!!"

"come on! Come on!!!"

After a few minutes.

Xiao Kaji missed consecutive pitches and lost points frequently.

Fix the auditorium at the high school to silence.

"Little Kaji..."

Sonoko Suzuki placed her right hand in front of the neckline, clenched her left hand and placed it on her waist, looking worriedly at Kaji who was in poor condition.

Xiao Lan looked at Xiao Kaji, and asked in bewilderment:

"He played abnormally all of a sudden, what's going on...?"

On the other side, Xiao Kaji quickly ran to the school's dormitory building after asking the relevant personnel for instructions.

Baseball games are temporarily suspended.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi watched Xiao Kaji gradually go away, and asserted thoughtfully in their hearts:

"He's a different person the first time he gets fouled, it's like ... something he's seeing has affected his state of mind."

Thinking of this, Dongfang Haoyue keenly sensed that something was wrong, decisively opened the system panel, and stared blankly at the rapidly rising energy points.

He covered his face with his hands in his heart and complained frantically:

"Going out to watch a high school baseball game can also encounter drama!!

The screenwriter of Detective Conan is not good at it! ! !

But...there are many students on site, the screenwriter should not design a murder plot frantically.

In other words...

No one will die in this episode~! "

"What's the matter, Kaji...?"

Suzuki Sonoko watched Xiao Kaji run into the dormitory building in bewilderment.

Xiaolan looked at Yuanzi and seriously guessed:

"Maybe he has a severe stomachache, which affects his normal performance."

On the other side, a tall boy wearing an open dark blue jacket with a white lining next to the Xiuhao High School player seat is arguing with the middle-aged coach of the Xiuhao High School baseball club.

The coach shook his head slowly, obviously rejecting a certain request from the boy.

The taller boy shivered slightly with anger, tried his best to regain his senses, put his hands in his pockets, turned around and walked towards the dormitory building dissolutely.

Dongfang Haoyue couldn't hear the conversation between the boy and the coach due to the distance, so she put her mouth next to Kudo Shinichi's ear, and said curiously in an extremely low voice:

"Xinyi, that boy had a conflict with their school's baseball coach?"

"According to my guess..."

Kudo Shinichi posted it to Dongfang Haoyue's ear, and whispered his thoughts:

"That boy wanted to replace Kaji as the pitcher, but the coach turned him down."

"Hey, Sonoko."

Xiaolan withdrew her gaze from observing the taller boy, looked at Suzuki Sonoko, and asked curiously:

"Who was the boy who had a dispute with the coach who repaired the high school just now?"

Suzuki Sonoko was slightly taken aback, looked at Xiaolan, tapped his chin with his right index finger, and calmly recalled:

"His name is Eto, and he was originally a left-handed pitcher in high school, but..."

Suzuki Sonoko paused for two seconds, covered her red lips with her right hand, and whispered quietly:

"Later, Kaji took away Eto's pitcher's throne by virtue of his strength, and Eto chose to suspend school in a fit of anger."

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi didn't say a word, they secretly eavesdropped on the conversation between Suzuki Sonoko and Xiaolan, and nodded thoughtfully.

Sonoko recalled for a moment, then seriously added in a low voice:

"I remember some time ago...Even though Eto requested to repair the high school to return the throne of the lead pitcher, but the school did not recognize his strength and still rejected his request."

after a while.

Kaji did not return to the game during the timeout.

The coach who repaired the high school had no choice but to replace the substitute pitcher to play the game, but as expected, he lost points again and again.

"come on!

come on! Come on! ! ! "

Fans of the Didan High School baseball club saw their team getting closer and closer to victory, and they were extremely excited for a moment.

They shouted and cheered with all their strength, and their momentum continued to rise.

"Ugh......"

Suzuki Sonoko looked at the repaired high school and lost another point, sighed deeply, clasped both hands on the knee of his left leg.

She lowered her head slightly, closed her eyes, and said in a lost voice:

"It would be nice if Kaji threw the ball..."

"Yuanzi, we are students of Didan High School after all!"

Xiaolan looked at Suzuki Sonoko helplessly, and comforted him cheerfully:

"Now it's our school's baseball club that won the victory, so don't be so frustrated..."

Xiaolan was talking...and couldn't go on.

She looked cowardly at Suzuki Sonoko who opened her beautiful eyes, looked at herself, and forced a smile, and apologized weakly:

"My...my fault..."
