The most favored of the rich and the right way

Chapter 266
After lunch, the media from all walks of life, the guests invited for the opening ceremony, and the participating teams all gathered in Mingmen High School.

After lunch, the students of Class F didn't go to the lounge, but all returned to the classroom, waiting for the results of the lottery that Liu Zhicheng, as the representative of the prestigious high school, went to.

Qiu Nuo had nothing to do, so she asked Shixian to search for the rules of baseball. For some reason, she suddenly wanted to know more about baseball. Maybe it was because, as Chi Xiuyuan said, they were In the same class, the so-called coexistence of honor and disgrace should be like this!

Baseball is a ball game characterized by playing with a bat. It is also a collective sport that integrates wisdom, bravery, fun and cooperation. It combines movement and static, with clear division of labor and clear responsibilities. It not only emphasizes individual wisdom and talent, but also must pay attention to strategy and tactics, and cooperate with each other. It is widely carried out internationally and has a huge impact, so baseball is also known as "the combination of sports and wisdom".

The field of a baseball game is in the shape of a right-angle fan, with four bases. It is divided into two teams, with nine players in each team. The two teams take turns to attack and defend. There are nine innings, and in the end, the player with the most points is the winner.

The defensive team is divided into the following players according to their defensive positions and responsibilities: pitcher, catcher, first baseman, second baseman, third baseman, shortstop, left fielder, center fielder, right fielder.

The player of the attacking team who hits the field is called a batter. After the batter comes on the field, he hits the ball thrown by the pitcher of the defending team with a stick, and takes the opportunity to run the bases and become a batter-runner. A run is scored if the player hits second and third base and returns safely to home plate;
If the batter hits the ball over the field high wall, it is a home run, at this point, the batter can run around the field to score, if the home run is hit, there are already runners on other forts If it is a grand slam home run, then the runner can run back to the plate without any worries, and then score four runs;

But during the period after the ball is hit, the defender can intercept the ball and touch the runner (the defender touches the runner with the ball or with a glove containing the ball) or overtake the runner. Before stepping on the base to block the runner, if the defensive team catches the ball with a glove before the ball hits the ground, the runner will be 'catch';
If the pitcher of the defending team throws three strikes to the batter of the attacking team, the batter is struck out.

Just when Qiu Nuo understood the rules of baseball, Liu Zhicheng finally finished drawing lots and returned to the classroom. He walked to the podium and said sternly, "One piece of bad news, one piece of good news." News, which one do you want to hear first...?"

"Listen to the good news first."

"Yes, let's hear the good news first,"...

Under everyone's suggestions, Liu Zhicheng nodded, "The good news is that we have won the last round of the group knockout round, which will be next Monday afternoon, which means that Cheng Jun and Min Jun will be more Take a week off!"

When everyone heard the words, they all talked and laughed, "That's great," and "That's right, so we don't have to worry about being eliminated before we reach the final."

"What about the bad news?" Zheng Chengjun asked unusually calmly.

Hearing this, Qiu Nuo seemed to be angry with Zheng Chengjun, and muttered in a low voice, "What else can I do? I'll sign for the warm-up match in the afternoon!"

Zheng Chengjun was not annoyed when he heard the words, and he was in a good mood to tease Qiu Nuo and said, "Oh, you still know about the warm-up match, I thought you didn't know anything?"

"Hmph~!" Qiu Nuo snorted weakly and ignored Zheng Chengjun.

At this time, Liu Zhicheng sighed while standing on the podium, and said with an unlucky face, "The bad news is that we also got the lottery for this afternoon's warm-up match!"

Zheng Chengjun looked at Qiu Nuo, and smiled, "I didn't see it, you can tell fortunes!"

After hearing this, Qiu Nuo was taken aback, because she was only angry with Zheng Chengjun just now, and made up something random, but she didn't expect it to be true.

"Qiuqiu, are you a fortune teller?" Chi Xiuyuan turned her head and said with a bitter face, "This can also be guessed right!"

"Eh...?" Qiu Nuo swore that what she just said was really not intentional. She turned her head and looked innocently at Zheng Chengjun, only to see Zheng Chengjun touching his own chin with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"No matter what, we can't lose the warm-up match, and we can't let the people of the whole country watch our jokes," Zheng Chengjun sighed, and went on to analyze, "Which team is the opponent in the West? If the opponent is a weak team, Our second team should be able to handle it!"

Liu Zhicheng also knows that the warm-up match cannot be lost, but the opponent is not a weak team, but a strong team. He has been worrying about this all the way back, "If the opponent is a weak team, it can't be called a bad team. The news is that the opponent is the runner-up of last year's college baseball league -- Inju Men's High School!"

After Liu Zhicheng finished speaking, everyone gasped.

What should they do? Now they have injured two main baseball teams. Can they really win last year's runner-up in the college baseball league?
After a while of silence, Zheng Chengjun still made the final decision, "There is no other way, we must win the warm-up match, and I will lead the team this afternoon!"

After Zheng Chengjun finished speaking, Min Jun, who had been silent all afternoon, finally spoke, "Chengjun, your injury... can you really play?"

"As long as you use tactics reasonably and save some energy, you should be fine," Zheng Chengjun nodded resolutely. "Now let's discuss the tactics for the afternoon. If you have any suggestions, feel free to come up with them."

After everyone heard the words, they quickly merged several tables together to form a small conference table, and then several people quickly took out the baseball demonstration sand table they carried with them and put it on the table.

After the sand table was set, Min Jun looked at Zheng Chengjun first and said, "Chengjun, Renzhou Men's High School played against us in the finals last year. Except for you, they should be very familiar with the strength of our other players."

Zheng Chengjun nodded, "I know..., since this afternoon's warm-up match is held in our famous high school, we have a natural advantage, that is, to defend the ball first!" He pointed to the sand table and concentrated on arranging the afternoon "Since they don't know me well, I'll be the starting pitcher for the first three rounds of defense, trying not to let them score. Shengjihezhi took the opportunity to save energy and focus on offense. In the next few rounds , we will discuss it at that time, and it will change at random.”

Cui Shengji and Liu Zhicheng nodded upon hearing the words.

"Should we tell Coach Wu about our tactics?" Min Jun asked.

"Coach Wu? Why haven't I seen him when I trained with you several times?" Zheng Chengjun didn't seem to think of Coach Wu at all. "When you usually train, does he give you training guidance?"

Min Jun shook his head, "He's quite afraid of us, he doesn't dare to yell at us, so when we usually train, he never asks to participate."

"Since this is the case, then don't tell him," Zheng Chengjun continued, "but during the game, you still have to let him sit on the sidelines."

Hearing this, Liu Zhicheng smiled and nodded, "To be honest, being our coach is really aggrieved..."

That's right, it was indeed tragic for Coach Wu to meet such a powerful player.

"Hahahahahahaha...!" Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this.

"Okay, everyone be quiet," Zheng Chengjun clapped his hands, and everyone became quiet. "Since the tactics have been decided, let's go to the gymnasium to prepare for the battle. Students in charge of logistics, thank you too."

After Zheng Chengjun finished speaking, all the students in class F surrounded him happily and walked out of class F, so that he left without even saying hello to Qiu Nuo.

Seeing Zheng Chengjun walk away surrounded by everyone, Qiu Nuo couldn't tell what was going on in her heart, since Zheng Chengjun was quite uncomfortable anyway.

Chi Xiuyuan turned her head, looked at Qiu Nuo excitedly and said, "Qiu Qiu, what are you still doing in a daze, clean up quickly, we will go over and cheer for them too!"

"Come on...?" As long as he thinks of going to cheer for Zheng Chengjun, Qiu Nuo becomes a bit petty, "Why should I cheer for them? If I don't go, I'll just study by myself in the classroom."

Chi Xiuyuan was taken aback when she heard the words, and said hesitantly, "Qiuqiu, isn't it good for you...?"

"Is it not so good? Why is it not so good, anyway, they didn't regard Shixian and me as members of Class F!" Qiu Nuo said indifferently.

"Qiuqiu, how can you say that!" Chi Xiuyuan couldn't control her temper when she heard this, and became slightly angry, because they were clearly not the kind of people Qiu Nuo said.

Looking at Chi Xiuyuan's slightly angry expression, Qiu Nuo was puzzled, "Xiuyuan, what's the matter with you?"

Chi Xiuyuan hesitated for a while, adjusted her mentality, looked at Qiu Nuo with a moved face, and said, "The day after Dalai's accident, no one in Class F stood by and watched after you were taken away by the police. People who make contacts, who contribute powerfully, who make phone calls, in a word, we have never excluded you and Shixian from Class F!"

"Eh~!" Qiu Nuo couldn't believe it when she heard the words, she turned her head in panic and wanted to ask Shixian if what Chi Xiuyuan said was true, but she saw that Shixian's seat was empty early, She didn't even know when Shixian left and why.

"Shixian went to the gym!" Chi Xiuyuan muttered softly.

Qiu Nuo nodded, and it suddenly occurred to her that Qin Wen once said that on the day after Dalai's accident, many people called the procuratorate and the ICAC to put pressure on her. She didn't know until now that the original caller was Those people are the students of Class F.

For a moment, Qiu Nuo didn't know what words to use to describe her mood at the moment,
"I didn't expect that she owed so many favors just by going to the police station. It turns out that they all helped her," Qiu Nuo felt that she was in a bad mood now!It turned out that she had already integrated into Class F unconsciously, but she didn't realize it.

"Xiuyuan, I'm sorry, I didn't know that everyone helped me..." Qiu Nuo felt a little hard to say.

Chi Xiuyuan shook her head, reached out to grab Qiu Nuo's hand, and said with a smile, "Qiuqiu, it's not too late for you to know now...!"

"Mm~!" Qiu Nuo nodded affirmatively!Because she has always been a person who reciprocates, she will find a chance to repay this kindness sooner or later.
