The Return of Diamond Ace Pitcher

Chapter 001

Although the dormitory is stipulated to gather at the dormitory on the evening of August 30, there is no specific time limit.If possible, Sawamura wanted to linger until the afternoon before leaving.But the old man can no longer tolerate his looseness. As the trump card of the national champion, his teammates are still fighting in school. How can his trump card be so leisurely?

"If you are pushed back, I can't spare you!!"

Under the threat of the old man's fists and feet, Zecun had to take the dim sum carefully prepared by his mother and the specially bought pudding, and set foot on the tram back to school early in the morning.

After waving goodbye to the friends who came to see him off, Zecun took out his mobile phone to send a group message to his teammates.

"I am back!"

After a full ten minutes, there was no reply.

Zecun was not angry at all, and immediately added another one.

"Oh, what should I do if I can't take it because there are too many things at home? Will that kind brother come to the station to pick it up?"

This time, the teammates were obviously enthusiastic.

Jia Weiyang (Kuramochi), bowing left and right: "When is the time? Asking for help from the senior should be straightforward. What do you think so profusely. This senior is not so unreasonable."

Eat it, Xiang (Zengzi): "Do you have pudding?"

Hidden Four Rods (Kinmaru): "Do you need a car? I can borrow Mr. Takashima's if I need it."

Kominato Haru (no screen name): "Welcome Rongchun to return to the team."

...

Sure enough, the charm of food is great.

Zecun smiled softly and continued to reply to everyone.

After chatting for a while, when Zecun looked up, two people were already standing in front of him.An eldest sister in her thirties brought a five or six-year-old brother.

"big boss!!!"

The child pointed to Zecun excitedly and said to his mother.

His mother gave her child a cowardly look, and smiled and asked if Zecun could take a picture and sign her son.

"of course!"

Zecun readily agreed.

"Little brother, what's your name?"

"Tiger wolf too!"

Zecun's heart suddenly burst, this name is mighty and domineering!

"I wish the tiger and wolf grow up too healthy and happy. Rongchun Sawamura!"

Sawamura signed his name and went to the toilet with excuses.

Before he knew it, Zecun was already a celebrity.Naturally, people around will inevitably have to give pointers, and some fans may even have to take photos and sign.

If he is really free, Sawamura doesn't mind.

But even on the tram, he disguised it slightly with a hat and a mask, returned to his seat, and fell asleep.

I don't know what happened to the team if he was not in school these days?

When Zecun arrived at the station and got off the bus, he saw people coming to pick him up.

Kinmaru, Kuramochi, Masuko, Kominato, Kinmaru, Tojo...

Damn, it's a bit too enthusiastic.

Sawamura silently counted the number of dim sums, and found sadly that he might not be able to get them.

"How come?"

Kuromochi's tone was very dissatisfied, and he enthusiastically picked up Zecun's bag and prepared to open it at the station.

"Eating is too ugly. Go back to school and open it again."

Zecun persuaded with a wry smile.

Sawamura took the car in the morning. By the time I got off the bus in Tokyo, it was almost noon.The group turned back to the school tram again, and when they arrived at the school, it was just in time for dinner.

Zecun put the salute back to the dormitory and went to the cafeteria with everyone.

In the cafeteria, almost everyone who saw Zecun greeted him warmly, and Zecun also politely distributed the snacks he brought from home.He didn't want to split, because Kuromochi and Jinmaru had already pressed him and searched his bag.

Except that the pudding was cut off by the seniors, there were many other things, all of them confiscated.

After the meal, Sawamura, Kuramochi, Kinmaru, Kominato Harushi, Yuya, and Miyuki sat together.

Zecun sat in the middle, and Miyuki sat opposite.On both sides of Sawamura are Jinmaru and Kominato Haru, and next to Miyuki are Kuramochi and Akiya.

Because of the character of the senior Baizhou, he hardly participates in team building discussions.The six people sitting here today, except for Jinmaru, are all regular members of the new team.

During the meal, a few people talked about the latest situation of the team and told Sawamura.

Now the third grade senior and the first and second grade players are completely separated.

Seniors in the third grade should prepare for the National Sports Competition.The first and second grade players are preparing for the selection of a new team.

The original Qingdao High School baseball team was mainly established in the third grade.In the main force of the first army, except for the trump card of Zecun, the first baton of Kurachi, and the right fielder of Baizhou, the others are all in third grade.

This includes the formation of first baseman, Ryosuke Kominato of second baseman, Masuko of third baseman, Itai of left field, Jun Isashiki of core hand, and Chris in catcher position.

Of the nine people, two-thirds are seniors in the third grade.

Not only is it the main force, but also nearly half of the third graders on the bench.

In this way, as soon as the third grade leaves, the entire army of Qingdao High School will be completely rebuilt.

Almost all non-third-year players in the original main second army were promoted to the first army.There are Maeen, Kinmaru, Tojo and others.

After the Second Army was promoted, the first army's twenty-member quota was completed.

But this is only for the personnel, in addition to the personnel, there are also the main positions, the team's back number, and the arrangement of the bat.

These are troublesome things!

The only ones that have been determined now are the No. 1 Zecun, the No. 2 Yuxing, the No. 6 Kuramochi, and the No. 9 of Baizhou.

In addition to these four positions, the others must compete again.

A new round of main competition has begun!

"Is the captain determined?"

Zecun asked directly.

Several people shook their heads.

This means not yet.

Sawamura frowned, and it seemed that Supervisor Kataoka, Coach Ochiai, Minister Ota, and Deputy Minister Rei Takashima didn't think alone.If it's a person, they just announce it directly.

"Snakes don't go without a head, and birds don't fly without a head. The captain should be determined first."

Sawura said with a wry smile.

Qingdao High School has yet to determine the main team, and from the beginning of September, the qualifiers for the autumn competition will begin.

The autumn competition is generally scheduled in October.

But the situation in Tokyo is different, there are too many teams, a total of 260 colleges and universities!

It is too cruel to eliminate so many schools in a single round, and it is not conducive to the development of the team.

Therefore, the organizing committee decided to arrange a qualifier before the official competition.

The qualifiers are drawn by the 260 schools, with four teams in groups, four teams playing round-robin matches, and the team with the highest points advances.If two teams have the same points, that is, in case there are two teams with two wins and one loss, compare the relationship between each other's victory and defeat.

The qualifiers are a seed selection system, and generally there are no two particularly strong teams coming together.

The winning team will be drawn at the end of September for the real Tokyo Autumn Competition.

The winner of the autumn competition will be qualified for the spring Koshien.

Because Qingdao is a national winner, he does not need to participate in the qualifiers and directly advances to the race.

But even then, it's only a month or so before the game officially starts.In such a short period of time, it is not only necessary to establish the main team, but also to shape the team.

too difficult!

Especially since the captain has not yet been determined, this is even more difficult!

Chapter 002 Captain!

Sawamura Eijun guessed right. There are very big differences within the coaching staff of Qingdao High School regarding the selection of the new captain.

Generally speaking, the leader of the team is chosen from the previous main players.

The original Aodo High School that dominated the country has three main players remaining, namely, shortstop Kuramochi, outfielder Hakushu, and pitcher Sawamura Eizumi on the hill.

According to the general logic, the captain must be one of these three people.After all, they are the heroes who won the national championship for the team, and it is easy to convince people to lead the new team.

Another, they have the experience of dominating the country, and they are more experienced when the team is in trouble, leading the team out.

This choice seems to be no problem at all.

But these three people all have fatal flaws.

First hold the first position.

If you tell him, let him lead the team, the guy is probably very happy.

But when the coaching staff thought about the results of the team led by a hurry, they immediately abandoned this idea.

They don't want to be misunderstood when the team is taken out.

Next, Baizhou, worked hard enough, solid strength, and good popularity...

Everything is good, just that kind of personality, not suitable for being a leader.Whose captain is this kind of temperament?

The last is Zecun.

If Sawamura Eijun is the captain, there should be no problem. He was the captain and coach when he was in the Akagi Middle School baseball team.

But there is also another problem, which is very fatal.

That is, Eijun Sawamura is not a second-year player, but a first-year player. Let the first-year player lead the second-year player, not to mention it is totally impossible, but it always feels weird.

of course.

Compared with Kurachi and Baizhou, Zecun is more appropriate.Even if it looks weird, they are like a captain.Unlike Kuramochi and Baizhou, there is no captain's posture at all.

With a suitable candidate, the first voice appeared, and that was to support eclectic talents and promote Zecun as team leader.

Proponents of this proposal, I'm afraid no one can think of it?It is Ota, the minister who has the most alienated relationship with Sawamura.

In Ota's view, Sawamura is simply omnipotent, and there is no more suitable candidate than letting him be the captain.

"Sawamura is the team's main trump card. After retiring from the third grade, he is likely to be the team's fourth. At this time, if he is promoted to the position of captain, will there be too much pressure?"

In this regard, Ochiai coach is opposed.Except for some small teams, the personal abilities of the pitchers are too strong, and the general giants will not arrange the ace pitcher to be the captain.

Ace pitchers train twice as much as ordinary players, that is to say, their training time is almost twice that of ordinary players.The average training time for ordinary athletes in Qingdao High School is three to three and a half hours.

Zecun’s training time is multiplied by two.

In this way, his own time is very limited, and he has to take into account the practice of combat, and then assign the position of captain to Zecun.

Can imagine, what will Zecun be busy with?

Of course, those able to work harder, and Zecun is busy.

The most critical question is that after too much time is taken up and energy is dispersed, can Sawamura Eijun still guarantee the quality of his training?

"can!"

Minister Ota said absolutely.

His trust in Sawamura Rongchun was blind.
