Ace of Diamonds: The Last Piece of the Puzzle

In addition to some local specialties, there are also many delicacies from other regions! However, Kurosawa actually discovered a magical delicacy from China here, that is Changsha stinky tofu!

When I traveled to China in my previous life, I unexpectedly discovered that this thing was quite suitable for me! At that time, I was attracted by its smell. I bought it out of curiosity and tasted it. I found that it smelled very bad but tasted surprisingly good.

This time, Kurosawa decisively pulled Miyuki to stand in front of the stall and said, "Boss, five bowls of stinky tofu!" Although I don't know how the stinky tofu here tastes? ! Just try it and you will know! It smells pretty good!

"Okay, please wait a moment!"

"Nanye, what is this?! Do you want to eat it? It smells so bad!" Miyuki said, I don't understand why you want to eat such smelly things, but thinking that Nanye's taste has always been very unique, I immediately felt that I understood it. the truth.

"Ichiya, this is super delicious! You will know when you try it later! Although it smells offensive at first, it tastes crispy but not mushy, tender but not greasy. In short, it is super delicious!" Kurosawa said seriously!

Miyuki's expression of doubt is real or fake? To be honest I have a hard time trusting your taste right now! I still can’t recall the indescribable taste of your energy tea in my mind! terrible! (◎_◎;)

"Young man, don't believe it! This is really delicious! Are you two here to participate in the competition? It's so awesome!" The boss has seen many people selling here who don't eat taste delicious in the end, so I'm not surprised. Strange.

"Yes! We are here to participate in the competition! Boss, how much does two bowls cost!"

"I'm pretty good at judging people! I'll give these to you two to try!" After saying that, he packaged five bowls of stinky tofu and handed them to Kurosawa, then turned around and took out two baseballs from behind at lightning speed, " Just sign your name for me!" If you become famous, I will post it hahaha!

"Ah?!" Kurosawa and Miyuki looked at each other, completely never thinking about such a magical development!

But in the end, the two of them paid the money and gave the boss their signatures for collection, then took the stinky tofu and left, heading to the next snack bar.

"Ouch!" Kurosawa ate one piece in one bite. It was so delicious! But it still feels a little bit off! But it’s already pretty good!

Seeing that Miyuki was still reluctant to do anything, Kurosawa decided to help him, so he took a piece from his bowl and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"Is it delicious, Kazuya!" Kurosawa asked in the affirmative. Although Miyuki was caught off guard and stuffed her mouth full, she couldn't spit it out directly, so she had no choice but to swallow it in her stomach.

After chewing it for a few times, Miyuki's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, it was so delicious! (?′?`?)

"I'll just tell you Kazuya! It's delicious! Let's have a bowl! The rest will be taken back to them and the seniors to try too!" Kurosawa said calmly, the food I recommended must not be delicious. Don't doubt my sense of taste!

Qingdao people: After watching you drink that damn energy tea as usual, you are already a person with a strange taste in our eyes! !

After finishing one delicacy, Kurosawa and Miyuki started cleaning up, and finally picked some delicious food and went to the gathering place.

After the appointed time, everyone came back one after another. Unexpectedly, they were not late for three hours. Everyone divided the food that was not very delicious and returned to the hotel with the selected food, ready to share it with the seniors.

In the end, everyone was attracted by the stinky tofu chosen by Kurosawa, and they just thought it smelled so good! I completely forgot that as soon as I heard that Kurosawa was introducing the food, I immediately didn’t want to try it!

On August 30th, the temperature reached a maximum of degrees Celsius. It can be said that this hot weather is really unfriendly to Daigu!

Early in the morning, two-thirds of the seats at the Koshien Stadium were filled. Everyone is really paying attention to Koshien in summer! Of course, these are just the spectators before the quarterfinals. Afterwards, the audience will know more clearly which schools to watch! The auditorium will be full by then, and it will be hard to get a ticket for the finals!

The people who had been sitting in the auditorium early were all talking about the outcome of today's contestants.

On the one hand, they believed that Homei could not lose to Aomichi, who had not participated in a game in six years. On the other hand, Inami, who had heard that Aomichi defeated last year's Koshien runner-up, Kanto's top pitcher Narumiya Narumi, felt that it was absolutely impossible for them. Will lose.

But everyone thinks this game is still very interesting to watch! After all, Nari Gongming is already competing for the number one pitcher in the country this year, which is what everyone is optimistic about!

Of course, there must be a lot of intelligence officers from the school and scouts who came to the audience after hearing the news! After all, Yuuki's super high school-level hitting and Miyuki's reputation as a savior are nationally famous. The former is graduating this year. Professional baseball can have many people to observe and evaluate it!

Homei High School Supervisor Itah Honda looked at Aomichi's starting list and muttered: "Is he actually a first-year starter? But normally I have heard that he has a very fast ball speed, but he is also famous for his Controlling the ball is very unstable, and it is very likely to self-destruct! How can the opponent be so confident in letting him deal with us?!"

"Then it only means that there are other special contents in his pitching, but it doesn't matter, let's let our linemen see it!" Baoming's coach has always pursued a steady and steady strategy, and treats all colleges and universities equally, no matter you are a wealthy one Still a dark horse, a new generation or a third grader! All we need to do is follow through on our own style.

"In the first round of playing, let's focus on observation and testing! We need to know what's special about his ball! Of course, if it's easy to hit, don't be polite and just hit it!" Coach Sakamoto touched it He touched his chin and said calmly.

"Yes!" Baoming High School player said with great momentum.

Soon the captains of both sides decided on the order of appearance, with Baoming attacking first and Qingdao attacking second. The audience watched Fang Gu, whose number was 11, appear first, and they immediately started talking.

Everyone didn't expect Qingdao to be so confident that he didn't even send his own ace on the field in the first game! After all, in the first battle, everyone usually lets the ace take over!

In the left field, Kurosawa clearly heard everyone's confusion and doubts about the order of Qingdao's appearance, but he absolutely believed in his junior! One goal will definitely turn them all into his fans, right?

The romance of ball speed is really the most irresistible thing in baseball! Because this is the most intuitive visual expression!

After all, not everyone can clearly see the distance between the auditorium and the pitcher's mound. People may not be able to see whether your change-up pitch is sharp or not! But people can definitely see your ball speed, and even if they can't see it, there is a ball speed that can appear directly on the big screen in Koshien. It's really intuitive!

But if Jiang Gu plays, he will have more leisure time! Most people can't hit his pitches. After all, he is a fastball pitcher who mainly strikes out opponents, except of course, except for his own four-ball pitch and a walk.

How can a hitter like Baoming, who is mostly a skilled hitter, really hit the ball that hits the valley? Kurosawa was deeply suspicious of this.

But it's time for you to show off! It's time for you to show off! Let the first battle be your debut! Let the whole country see your game, so that there will never be no catchers in the future. I can't help but sigh when I think of this Kurosawa! It’s so miserable!

Buzz - After an air raid siren sounded, Qingdao's first game against Baoming High School officially began!

"In the first half of the first inning, Homei High School led off with a hit from center fielder Kawai-san!"

"call out!"

"Bang!" A loud bang sounded at home plate, suppressing the sound of the entire audience. For a moment, the entire audience was silent. They stared at the tall and thin Jianggu standing in the center of the stadium in stunned silence, completely unable to believe that this was him. Could the speed and power of the pitched ball really be achieved by a skinny-looking guy like him? !

Then the ball speed was displayed on the screen, 151! The whole audience was excited. Even Koshien had not seen a pitcher with such a fast ball speed for a long time! It’s really a visual enjoyment!

"Wow, what's that kid's name? Jiang Gu! His name is Jiang Gu!"

"It's amazing! The ball speed is so fast!"

"Yes, it made my blood boil. I will be his fan from now on! The speed of the ball is so great!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, one more for me from Jiang Gu! One more time for me!"

"One more! One more!"

The momentum of the entire audience quickly shifted towards Qingdao. Fangtani changed the situation on the court with one ball. The professional baseball scouts in the front row also quickly recorded it with bright eyes. You must know that Fangtani is still A first grader!

Judging from his relaxed appearance, it is obvious that this is not his full strength, so after the third grade, he may directly evolve to a ball speed of over 160, coupled with the training of physical strength, ball control and changing balls.

As long as he doesn't burn out in high school, he will be as good as hot cakes when he graduates from the third grade! What professional baseball team wouldn't want a pitcher like this? ! He only needs to polish a little bit after joining the team and then he can be put on the field directly. He is someone who can completely control the situation!

Next, Shitaya lived up to expectations and struck out Bomying High School, who was not used to his ball speed and couldn't help swinging the bat, with full firepower, and quickly scored three outs.

No surprise at all! After all, for people who don’t know much about Fang Gu, meeting him for the first time is simply a confusing existence! The high-speed ball left Bo Ming's top line defense defenseless, and Fang Gu easily struck out without letting their bats touch the ball at all.

What a perfect start, Daigu! As expected of you! really not bad! Kurosawa thought proudly, turned around and ran forward with a smile and rubbed his head: "Your ball control is still as bad as ever! If someone didn't hit the ball just now, you would have just killed him with a bad ball." The bases are loaded with a walk, take it easy!”

Then he looked at the faded Daigu who was frozen in place and returned to the rest area with satisfaction. Oh my, it would be more interesting to tease the junior! Left field is too boring!

Miyuki looked at Kurosawa's behavior with amusement and thought, "That's good. It's the same as what I thought. Now that you said it!" Then I won’t say anything! Hahahaha, you are obviously as bad as me!

Next to him, Kuramochi looked at the two people who were smiling alike and felt a chill all over his body. There was another person like Miyuki! You're even better at pretending than him, aren't you too miserable? !

Sawamura unconsciously felt the gaze of his own brother. He stared at Fang Gu with wide eyes and said, "Mom, why can't you repair me? I really want to play!" Then he didn't forget to hand him a glass of water.
