"Clap clap clap clap..."

"Crack clack clack clack..."

After the alarm sounded, the West Tokyo 4-final match came to an end, and Qingdao High School advanced with a big score.

Araki Ichiro took off the hat on his head, pinched the brim of the hat and nodded towards Kataoka opposite, then turned his head to face his disciple whose eyes were blurred with tears, "Let's go, there are still things to do next. A lot, for next summer."

"Ten...very...sorry..." Ruo Linhao tried hard to suppress the tears that had already poured out, and tightly clenched his fingers on the brim of his hat, "I can't take the supervisor to that stage..."

.......

"Hurry up, don't leave anything behind." Cang Chi put his backpack on his body and shouted at the only first graders in the first army, "What are you doing!"

"Yes!" Haruichi and Liangzhen said in unison.

Before he walked out of the door of the contestant's bench, an unusually tall figure appeared in front of him. Liang Zhen was taken aback, forgot to back down, and almost bumped into that person.

"Maki..." Liang Zhen raised his head to meet a pair of unmoving dead fish eyes, and the owner of the eyes was looking down at him.

Facing the nearly 2m giant, Liang Zhen nodded without changing his expression, "Hello..."

Shinaki didn't answer, but still stared straight at the person in front of him who only reached his chest, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a moment.

"Oh! Maki, don't stand there stupidly," some old voices came from behind the door, and then Supervisor Ukai Kazuyoshi, whose face was full of wrinkles, said while touching his face, "It's blocking others, It's so big, but it doesn't make people worry, really..."

Maki's body stiffened for a moment, and then he turned sideways, and saw that the doorway was unobstructed, and everyone in Qingdao began to pass by one after another.

"Wait, in the finals...I will definitely not let you..." When passing by Maki, short and continuous voices came from beside his ears, Ryoma paused and continued to walk.

"Really," the breeze raised the golden hair, and the corner of the boy's lips slightly raised, "I'm waiting..."

"The lead with the ball is wonderful, and the changeup is just at the right time," Team Zhe looked at Miyuki and praised without embarrassment.

Accidentally bumped into a third-year senior who was watching the game outside the arena. Eijun ran to Chris excitedly, "Master, you came to watch my game!", his big eyes sparkling.

"Well, I've been watching since the first inning," Chris said with a smile, which was a sense of relief at the pitcher he had trained, "I'm impressed with you."

"Hahahaha, is that really the case! I vaguely feel this way myself," the boy with big eyes touched his head, and said loudly, "Is that really the case? I'm impressed," and didn't see Chris at all. Gradually darkening his face, he shouted loudly, "I accept the compliment from senior Chris!"

"Almost shut up, Sawamura," Ono couldn't help but interjected.

It's a pity that someone didn't hear it at all, and was blindly immersed in his own world, "It can't be helped, who told him that he performed really well today," Liang Zhen looked at the young man who kept giggling with a bright smile, and his mood became clear. , "I will also be very happy to start after overcoming YiPS and learning to change up the ball."

"The man who can achieve great things, Sawamura Eijun! Hahahahaha! I am evolving every day, I am really scared of my own talents..."

"Even if you can throw a good ball, a fool is a fool, I feel a little relieved..."

At the beginning, Liang Zhen noticed that Jiang Gu was staring at a fool with a smirk, but in the blink of an eye, his eyes stopped at a certain place. Looking along, Liang Zhen saw a certain person who looked similar to Jiang Gu. The old man stood opposite.

"Who is it, someone you know?" Chunshi also noticed the grandfather who had been watching this side, and couldn't help asking.

.......

Next is the semi-final match between Xianquan and Cheng Kong. The members of Qingdao's first army did not go back, but stayed to watch their opponents in the next match. Grandpa Jiang Gu was particularly interested.

"Hey, did your grandfather live in Tokyo?"

"He even played in Jiashiyuan!"

"Then you learned baseball from your grandfather?"

"It's rare that your grandpa came to watch your game, but you didn't play. It's a pity," Cang Chi rolled his eyes as if thinking of something, "I also have a grandpa at home."

Everyone's expressions changed subtly, but Liang Zhen could clearly see Miyuki who was sitting next to him pursing the corners of his lips tightly.

All of a sudden, there was a strong and crisp metal knocking sound, and everyone looked at the sound, only to see Cheng Kong's hitter hitting a real wood curveball, and Xianquan's backbone standing on the edge of the home run wall, relaxed He caught the small white ball that was flying fast.

"The striking power of Cheng Kong's players cannot be underestimated," Ryoma dragged his chin and muttered in a low voice, "A hitter of this size coupled with constant swings, it really is..."

"The type that catchers hate the most," Miyuki said.

"Yes, and their strength is absolutely top-notch," Liang Zhen crossed his hands behind his head, "now Zhenmu can still suppress them with strength, wait until the end game, oh...not the middle game, fatigue Can excessive aces stand up to a heavyweight lineman's offense?"

"So, you don't like it, Xianquan?" Cang Chi turned around and asked curiously, "Do you think Cheng Kong will win?"

"Sah--who knows, but...Xianquan must have some trump card if he wants to win this game..." Such a burly player swung with all his strength one after another, which would cause considerable damage to Shinaki. Under a lot of pressure, "This game, the fairy spring is suspended..." Liang Zhen swallowed the last sentence, but his eyes kept scanning Cheng Kong's player bench.

Finally... not long after, Cheng Kong's line-throwing finally broke out, and Maki's curveball was hit out, and it hit the block heavily, making a harsh friction sound, but Xianquan's nightmare was not over. The fifth after the fourth hit another home run, and the outfielder could only watch helplessly as the baseball hit the block again.

Three home runs in a row, the giant Maki was blown away at this moment.....

There were constant exclamations from the stands. On the pitcher's mound, the giant Maki lowered his proud head. Facing Cheng Kong's super-strength Daxian, everyone in the stands, including Qingdao's team members, was also extremely shocked.Because the Qingdao players who have played against Xianquan know how powerful Maki's curve ball is, but...

At the end of the eighth inning, the score was 6-3, and Cheng Kong led. The eye-catching 4 points in the fifth inning on the scoreboard were eye-catching. At this time, Cheng Kong chose to replace the pitcher. The burly and tall Ogawa, shouldn't be called fat... Ryoma is like a child standing next to an adult compared to the catcher Masu Shinichiro standing next to Ogawa.

Ogawa's pitch is as heavy as his body. Not only does it look fast, but it also feels very heavy. I just don't know how it will compare with Maki's curveball.

"That guy is in the first grade." Kuramochi said with some uncertainty.

"The ball is fast, is Cheng Kong still hiding such a pitcher?" Jin Wan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.

"Fast, but really useless four balls," Liang Zhen said coldly, "Ball control..."

Everyone looked at the runner who had already reached first base due to a ball, and nodded clearly, "Why do you feel that Liangma is looking at that pitcher's face?" Chunshi asked with some doubts, "Liuzhen, do you know that pitcher? A pitcher called Ogawa?"

"Eh? I don't know you..."

Although Ogawa on the field was hit by Shinaki with a double, the next few hitters were all out, and the game ended after three outs.

"The opponent for the next match has been decided." Kuramochi had a serious expression on his face.

"The first-year Sawamura and Furutani pitching are a little monotonous, and they are most suitable for this kind of on-pitcher who keeps swinging the bat..." Ochiai's eyes fell on the two of them.

Group C Pharmacist High School, Group D City Junior High School, these two teams also reached the semi-finals, and the semi-finals finally arrived.
