Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 74 Ending and Return

In the evening, everyone ate the barbecue and sauce marinated by Sendō Jingxin!

"good to eat!"

"This meat is super delicious! How do you prepare it and knead it! It's amazing!" Akio, a foodie, asked while eating!

"Secret! By the way, Qiu Xiong!" Xiandao, who happened to be sitting next to him, suddenly called out to the little fat man!

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"I told you during the summer vacation that you wanted to lose weight, right? How much weight have you lost now?" Xiandao continued.

"Uh!...!" Qiu Xiong's movements began to stiffen!

"2kg!"

"We need to lose at least another 3kg before autumn!" Sendao said while poking Takada's belly with his hand!

"..."

"Huh?" When he didn't hear the response, Xiandao looked away from his belly and raised his head.

I noticed that Takada had a Buddhist look on his face!

"You guy, don't try to get by in a daze!"

"Yeah!" After hearing what Xiandao said, Takada made a sound about as loud as a mosquito.

"This one and that one are all troublesome guys!" Xiandao took a bite of meat by the way.

"You have no reason to say that! You are the one who makes people worry the least, right?" Fumino cursed in his heart after hearing Xian Dao's words.

……

After dinner, they practiced independently as always. No one gave up because of an exhausting day of competition, because everyone knew that they would return to Nagano in a few days, so everyone wanted to use all the remaining time to do their best. become stronger.

It can be said that what happened today was a big blow to everyone. I feel that I have practiced so long and hard, and Xian Dao also admits that everyone is capable.

However, in the actual game, they were unable to show their strength. This was what everyone was most unwilling to accept. In the end, they relied on the opponent's mistakes and Sawamura alone to force everyone to win the game.

Everyone is holding back their energy! Hope to produce results, hope to help Sawamura, hope...all kinds of hopes kept everyone motivated, but Xiandao also spoke out at the right time to limit their practice volume to prevent injuries caused by overexertion of the body.

Sendao, Wakana and Fumino went back early to take a shower. At around eight o'clock in the evening, the three of them went to Sendao's room as agreed in advance.

The others also came back after reaching the amount of training required by Xiandao, took a shower and went to rest early!

After all, today's game is a big drain on everyone, especially mentally. So I went to bed very early at night and slept very soundly.

……

"The last few days of practice have all been changed to hitting exercises. After the warm-up, it's just hitting and bunts! Everyone needs to incorporate all the previous imagination exercises. You have watched yesterday's video many times. Imagine the final game for me. , imagine yourself as the opponent's last four at bats, when you hit, think of it as two outs and three bases, and when you bunt, it's one out and three bases, hypnotize yourself to put pressure on yourself, conditions are limited, since you can't play the game all the time, then use your Imagine getting used to crises, got it?”

"Hi!!!"

"Then let's begin!!!"

This is the solution Xiandao can think of. Use imagination to imagine every attack and defense as a crisis and a situation of great pressure.

There was no record of yesterday's game, not only because no one knew how to record it, nor could anyone understand it, but it was also unnecessary for a team with immature skills like theirs. Perhaps even those who graduated from junior high school might not be able to reach this level. .

And Xiandao also felt that there was nothing more useful than video.

Time will not wait for anyone. If you stop, you will find that an unknown amount of time has passed in the moment of reality in your consciousness. And when you are immersed in one thing, for a moment in your consciousness, you don’t know how long time has passed. Although you don’t know how long it has passed, they are completely different. In the former, you stay where you are, stop moving forward, and even control it by yourself. The knowledge and technology of others will also regress, but for the latter, although time also flies by, not a single minute is wasted. The efforts made every minute will be rewarded, but it is not necessarily a visible reward!

"Be careful on the road!"

"Yeah!" A boy and girl stood facing each other at Tokyo Station!

"akila!"

"Huh?" Xiandao, who had just turned around, turned around when he heard the sound, but he only felt a blur in front of his eyes, a flash of blue light, and there was just one more person in his arms.

"..."

"Will you come back from winter vacation?"

"Well! I can't play games in winter!

But even if we could play, no school would be willing to play practice games with Chicheng, a baseball team as bad as ours. "Xian Dao said softly, although the words were not very pleasant.

"Remember to contact me!"

"Before I came, didn't you send me messages every day?...It hurts!" But Xiandao fell silent before he finished speaking. Although it wasn't that he wanted to shut up, it was that his waist had been twisted. I don’t know how many degrees it is.

So after the silence, he said quietly that it hurts, yes, that's right, not the kind of emotional words.

"If you have time, come to Nagano to watch our game!"

"Yes!" Fumino, who buried his face in Xiandao's arms, agreed dully.

Xiandao didn't know if he was choking or because he was covered by his clothes when he heard this sound, but it didn't matter anymore.

"Also! Although we have a good relationship, we shouldn't hug him like this and never let go, right? And he's still a junior high school student, still 12 or 3 years old.

...It will be misunderstood that we are lovers.

……

pain! "

"Fumino, please don't always pinch people, okay? Where did you learn this?...!" Finally, he could only shut up under the severe pain that struck him again.

"You bastard!" Fumino took out his head and said angrily.

"What I'm telling you is the truth! It's obvious that a child has to pretend to be an adult to hug me, but he still wants to pinch me...! You still want to pinch me?" Xiandao said and suddenly turned sideways to avoid the attack.

"A Saint will not be defeated by the same thing twice... that... three times!"

"..."

"...See you later!" Seeing Fumino looking at him angrily, he smiled, put his hand on Fumino's head and said softly, then turned around and got into the car, where his friends were waiting for him!

"Stop treating me like a child! Sendō Akira, you are a bastard!!!"

For a moment, the people around him looked sideways. Fumino looked at passers-by at such a young age... Children nowadays are so precocious. His face became redder and redder, and then he turned around and ran away. Well, yes, he just ran away.

"Haha! Sendao, I didn't expect you to have... that! How do you say it? Forget it, you are actually like this!" Sawamura said, stretching out his hand to show his little finger, expressing that Fumino Furuhashi is your girlfriend. gesture!
