A talk about the sports festival really made the atmosphere very relaxed.

Before they came, Abe already knew the result.Hanai simply told him that he had lost, and we made a conclusion, but we were still not strong enough, and Abe simply said that he knew.

Before leaving, Huajing told everyone about the changes in the training plan in detail.

"Don't fall behind when you come back, Takaya." He pretended to be relaxed and said.

"I will definitely catch up with you soon." Abe was very solemn.

Because the words are too serious, it has a hint of "absolutely not holding you back".

(Abe is still blaming himself, feeling that he has delayed the team.)

Tsukishima could sense it, and of course Abe's partner, pitcher Mihashi, could also sense it.

He hesitated, opened his mouth, and closed it again.

Everyone noticed that he had something to say, so they all stopped and started chatting in low voices, with the look of "I'm not waiting for you, don't be pressured, take your time." Hashi and Abe stepped aside.

Mihashi wanted to comfort Abe, but remembering what Hanai said to Tajima before, "Don't say it in front of Takaya", I don't know if what I want to say now should not be mentioned.

(Isn't it the same as Yu-kun's words? You should be able to say it, right?)

After thinking about it for a while, he finally decided to speak out.

"Takaya, with us now, even if you are here, probably, maybe, you won't be able to achieve your goal," he carefully added several qualifiers when saying that he couldn't achieve his goal, while looking at Abe's face, "so you Don’t miss anything, when you come back, we will achieve our goals together.”

When the team leader heard his words, he suddenly became clever, pretending to be nonchalant, and secretly glanced at Yue Dao, his eyes turned to one side.

Abe realized that Mihashi wanted to comfort him, but this was premised on admitting his own shortcomings, and this comfort was very heavy.

But he couldn't help but think that now Mihashi can not only admit his strengths, but also face his shortcomings calmly. He is no longer the Mihashi who can't give up the mound--thinking like this There will be some relief.

There was a moment of silence, "Ah." He replied in a deep voice.

"Strict (realization)!" Tajima approached from the side and said loudly.

(?)

"What is your goal?" Tsukishima couldn't help asking.

She watched XJTLU's final.From her point of view, there is not much difference between Nishiura and the opponent, and she feels that if Abe is present, the chances of winning are great, so Koshien still feels very stable?Isn't their goal Jiashiyuan?

Several teenagers had strange faces and felt a little embarrassed.

The captain said "I knew it".

Only Tajima said loudly immediately, "Joshien Yusei!" Then he became dissatisfied with the others, "Didn't you say it out loud?"

The team leader looked desperate, "Oh, our goal is to win at Koshien." Then he explained in a low voice, "But the doctor is an outsider, right? And when we just lost?"

Tajima, "Because it was just when we lost!"

Huajing, "Ah, I got it, I got it, I was wrong just now."

Several teenagers also followed Tajima and loudly stated their goals. Even the weak Mihashi said very unconvincingly, "To rule the country."

Tsukishima was suppressed.

(Wait, wait, I know Nishitura is amazing.)

(But you are new, right? There are no third graders, right?)

(Koshien Yukatsu, do these guys know what that concept is?)

But I also feel that it is rude to think so.

(They must know better than me how difficult this is.)

At this time, looking back at just now, they were laughing and talking about things that everyone was completely unpopular in the class, and it was another mood.

(It would be disrespectful to think that they set the goal haphazardly. They all know how difficult it is to achieve this goal, so they have to work hard for it, and even have to give up a lot.)

After saying it, everyone had a calm expression on their faces, and they didn't hold back, and they weren't afraid that others would think they were messing around—if someone thought so, they would definitely use practical actions to shut up those who thought so.

……

After everyone left, Tsukishima went back to Abe's ward and took a look from the outside.

Abe is exercising his upper body muscles with a piece of equipment that has just been installed a few days ago. (When convincing the dean, Yuedao put in a lot of effort—it only needs to install a hook, which has little impact, and it can be used by others in the future...)

Looking at the way he muttered words——

(They are serious.)

(They really want to achieve such an almost impossible goal!)

Thinking about it, Yue Dao felt an inexplicable surge in his heart.

She knocked on the door and walked in.

Abe raised his head to look at him, didn't speak, and continued to count while muttering words, with a puzzled look on his face—what's the matter?

"Abe, can I go and see your training? - It won't affect you, and I will bring some condolences or something."

Abe was surprised, and then immediately thought that Tsukishima was a high school baseball fan, and he seemed to like their team very much recently, and he tried to watch every game before.

"It's best to ask the supervisor first." He said, and thought for a while, "Rice balls are good—comfort items, and summer watermelon is also good."

"..." Although I'm not saying it politely, you are too close-minded.

"?" What else? "Where did I just count?"

"...I don't know, you didn't make a sound."

……

Tsukishima quickly contacted Supervisor Mokeda, and left his contact information when he sent Abe to the hospital, which was very convenient.

"Take it as their family members who want to help—just think of me as Abe's older sister."

Baizhi repeatedly confirmed that Yuedao had no relatives or friends in other teams, and repeatedly stated that the situation in the team should not be leaked-in short, he didn't really want people to watch the training.

Tsukishima thought for a moment and understood.

"Then when you need to video an opponent's team, please call me. Anyway, I also like to watch baseball, just by the way."

"...Tsukishima-san, why did you do this?" Even if you said you were Abe's older sister——but didn't you?Are you a fan?

"Actually..." Yue Dao hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "I heard them talk about the goals of the team, and I was very touched... I really hope to see you achieve your goals... I wonder if I can help I'm busy or something... But it can also be regarded as I am a fan of Nishitura... I like everyone very much, everyone is a good boy..."

(Is it a little strange for me to do this?)

Not knowing that Baizhi on the opposite side is even more "weird" than himself, Yuedao couldn't help but feel a little worried.

(However, I always feel that if you can realize your dreams, my dream is absolutely impossible...)

(If you guys can do it, I will also gain courage...)

"You heard what they said," Baizhi hesitated, "don't you think it's like talking in a dream?"

"No." Tsukishima said seriously, "I know how serious they are."

"Then...you have to work hard when you need to record?"

Even though he said that, Baizhi didn't think that Yuedao would be serious.

She originally thought that Yuedao would quickly shirk when the heat passed, but she didn't expect that she would respond to every request. As long as the time is right, please record her games properly. (And the first video is very easy to use, there is no novice mistake of the camera chasing the ball.)

As a result, Tsukishima gradually became a strange member of the "Nishiura Baseball Club Parents Support Club".

In the beginning, I helped with video recording, and gradually I also helped record and sort out the positioning data. Later, the part about "condolences" finally moved the supervisor Momoe who was careful for the team, so I occasionally came to visit when the training was about to end. ——I will also occasionally help the team manager who is not good at multiple jobs.

……

"Ah, Dr. Tsukishima." Tajima has sharp eyes and saw Tsukishima from a distance, "Did you bring watermelon?"

"Stupid, there are no more watermelons this season." Huai said out of breath.

"Rice balls are good too," Tajima almost drooled at the thought, "Rice balls are just fine—I'm a little hungry."

"Concentrate—little!"

As he was talking, Izumi saw that Tajima was distracted and wanted to slip away, but Tajima grabbed him. Hanai hadn't finished telling Tajima to "be careful".

"Haha, the last one, win, win, go to the dinner group." Tajima ran back excitedly.

The training arranged by Baizhi is similar to a game of catching ghosts. The two teams decide the outcome, which can determine the taste of the rice balls for the next day.

"Damn it, this guy is so unfathomable, I thought he was absolutely distracted." Quan fell behind and turned back to Huajing, "Did he do it on purpose?"

"I don't know." Huai said weakly.He felt that Tajima's physical strength was unfathomable, and he could still run now.

(What did you say before? Because I have a relatively large mass, the physical strength I need is an index? Base? What is it... Anyway, it must be the reason.)
