[Miyuki x Sawamura] Casting and arresting evil fate

"Miyuki." Sawamura looked very uneasy when he was sitting in the car, "Can we win against Inashi?"

"You kid, don't say such unlucky things early in the morning." He curled his lips, "As long as you show that stupid energy, you will be fine."

Normally, he would definitely refute, but this morning he nodded with a "huh".

"What's the matter? He's so listless." He pointed to Jiang Gu next to him, "Look at him, he's not nervous. Even the pitcher is nervous. How can I match the ball?" But looking to the side, Jiang Gu also said nothing. No, the expression on his face was indescribably nervous.

"I said don't be nervous! Both of you are nervous about how to play this game! Really! Look how natural Kawakami is!"

At this time, Kawakami's voice came, "Miyuki said something anyway?"

He said "Huh?", "You're not even nervous, are you?" At this moment, the coach's voice came, "Masuko shaved her head to relieve your nervousness. If you are nervous, just stare at me. Look at his head."

Masuko, who has always been more introverted and shy, was shot while lying down. Didn’t she just forget to put on accessories when she was arranging her hair in the morning, and she accidentally shaved herself into a bald head?Why does the coach not open which pot and lift which pot.

"Haha, I said Masuko-senpai simply stand up and let everyone stare at your head! The pitchers are so nervous that they are peeing their pants!"

He was a person who couldn't stand being teased, and the person being teased didn't look like a third-year senior at all when he blushed.

"Miyuki...really...please." People who didn't know the situation thought he was bowing his head to admit his mistake, "I have no experience in this kind of big scene, but I want to win the game. Today I... will Be obedient...follow your gloves. I will cast wherever you tell me to. So, please."

He even stood up excitedly, "Hey, hey, let me tell you, don't try to shirk responsibility before the game starts. Doesn't it mean that if you lose the game, all the responsibility will be on me?"

"The catcher is the director, wouldn't it be good to lead the game to victory?"

He looked at the back row, "Senior Chris, are you supercharging me?"

"The catcher's job is to take care of the pitcher. If the pitcher thinks that putting the pressure on the catcher can relieve the burden on the heart and play better, then the catcher should take over the pressure. The catcher should have the ability to withstand the pressure that all players put on, because You are the leader of the field."

After being told this, Miyuki looked out the window and curled his lips, "Okay. Everyone play well and put the pressure on me. I will be responsible for losing the game."

The supervisor interrupted suddenly, "Whether you win or lose, it's the last game before you enter Koshien. Everyone let go and play without regrets!"

Everyone said "yes" and suddenly became full of confidence.

But in many cases, the game can not be won by momentum. For example, when the whole game is one out away, Toki Sawamura's ball hits the batter's helmet.

"Hey, are you okay?" Miyuki who was standing on the catcher's bench was concerned about whether the opponent's player had any major problems from being hit.You must know that if the speed of the ball is unlucky, it can kill people directly, "Although you really want to deliberately use the touch ball to shake the pitcher, you don't have to gamble with your own life."

"This this……"

The players' attention was focused on the man who was hit, and pitcher Sawamura was alone on the mound, and there was no one to comfort him.There were comments like "Is that guy okay" and "Is this a foul" from the auditorium, only Chris suddenly rushed to the first row of the auditorium and yelled at the field, "Yuki! Pitcher!"

The catcher who reacted after being yelled immediately turned to Sawamura, who was already in a panic and his eyes were out of focus, and shook him vigorously, "Sawamura! Sawamura! Be sober! The opponent deliberately used the touch ball! It was on purpose! Be sober!" But it was like a nightmare, no matter how much he shook Sawamura, he still couldn't get the focus back.

"Are you okay?"

"Ah, it's okay. It just hit the helmet."

The batter who was hit stood up and made a posture to continue hitting the ball, but the catcher here seemed to be stunned by the ball and couldn't react for a long time.If it wasn't for seeing it with my own eyes, it would be easy to think that it was Sawamura who was smashed into a fool.

He gritted his teeth, said "sorry" and slapped him hard, and added a sentence of "you wake me up!" at the highest decibel, but even so, he still didn't change his focal length, and in the end he had no choice but to Put on Kawakami pitching, but it ended in failure.The summer of the third grade is over.

"The game...lost...?"

When he got back to the dormitory, Sawamura was staggering and couldn't find the focal length. It was just that everyone was crying and he just followed the tears reflexively.Miyuki pulled him to walk to keep him from getting hurt, but he couldn't even say a word of comfort.Sawamura also said in the car that it was all handed over to him, but in fact, if he rushed to comfort him from the beginning, maybe it would not have been the result.Those words pierced his heart like a needle.

"Miyuki" Chris called him, "Anyone can be as sad as they want, but you can't." He said seriously, "If you and Furutani collapse, the world of Sawamura and Furutani will completely collapse. This It is the strength that a senior who is looked up to by a junior should have."

He held back his tears, "I understand, I will take Sawamura back to the dormitory."

"Also, although it's too much to say to you, you can take a look at the last round of the game. If you think it's still unacceptable, you can postpone it for a few days so as not to make the same mistake. For you, don't I said that I can find it. In this game, even if there is no touch ball, I will still lose. The key reason for the loss of the game is on you."

He left with such a blank expression, it is natural that he would be sad, but the tone of his speech did not have the slightest ups and downs, and he said the cruelest words gently like he was guiding instead of blaming.

Sending Sawamura back to the room, Miyuki came to the dormitory alone to watch the last game.The next day, Kuramochi was surprised to find that Miyuki was biting his lip while watching the game video and thought he could accept the fact, and his eyes were redder than anyone else.

"What's wrong with you. Thought you could accept the fact, did you cry all night?"

Due to the fatigue of the game, most people fell asleep crying and crying, but Miyuki didn't seem to sleep at all.

"Senior Chris is right. I put an end to everyone's summer. Even without that touchdown, we still couldn't win the game! The responsibility lies with me!" He lowered his head, "No matter how many times I watch it I can’t forgive myself. Sawamura’s performance was really wonderful, but his expression was wrong at the beginning of the last game, and his expression became more rigid every time he scored a number of outs, but I was overwhelmed by the desire to win I blindfolded my eyes and didn’t notice it, and I didn’t go to the mound to comfort him. Obviously, I would never make such a mistake in normal times! Why didn’t I think about him at that time! Why didn’t I think of observing his expression! Touching The same goes for the ball, why didn't you rush up to hug him to comfort him when his eyes haven't lost focus and he can still hear people's words!"

The more he talked, the angrier he became, he slammed the table hard, and tears fell down again.He simply tossed his glasses aside and wiped them with his hands.

"I said, don't act like this! Don't look at it!"

He grabbed the remote control and turned off the TV, "Didn't we not notice? It's not your fault, so don't blame yourself so much!"

He dragged Miyuki up, "Let's go, let's say goodbye to seniors. They are leaving the club today to prepare for their studies."

When dragging him to the door, Cang Chi kindly reminded him, "I said you should at least take off your shoes too?" Only then did he realize that he was not wearing shoes.
