Eh?

Did I cry?

After watching the video, Moriyama Aoi came to her senses and found that her tears had soaked her clothes.

Is this what baseball is really like?

Koshien, I really want to visit it.

She thought of the players of Zhixuekan High School who had the courage to persevere in desperate situations, and how she chose to escape just because of some trivial matters.

Can I also have such determination?

As for baseball, can I do it too?

...

In front of the activity room of the Hakusan High School Baseball Club.

Aoi Yokoyama, a first-year student, stood there, pinching the corners of her clothes nervously, and peeking inside from time to time.

what to do!

I am so nervous whether I should make this decision or not.

After watching the Zhi Gakukan baseball story video that day, she slowly began to look for other videos about baseball and Koshien to watch.

Moriyama Aoi found that she was exposed to the charm of baseball for the first time, and for the first time she gradually fell in love with the sport. For the first time, she had the courage to participate in it.

But, still can’t do it? It’s my own words.

Moriyama Aoi felt a little sad.

Still want to give up?

Moriyama Aoi, who was so nervous that she was about to cry, felt that the determination she had finally made was being swallowed up by uneasiness.

I'd better give up, like before...

"Bang!"

Suddenly the door of the activity room was violently opened from inside.

"Hello! This classmate, how can I help you?"

"Ah?! Um...um..."

Moriyama Aoi was startled by this sudden change.

In front of him was a girl who was about 1.6 meters tall, with long straight hair, and was a little chubby. She looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Hello... hello, senior."

The hesitant Moriyama Aoi finally decided to speak her mind, not wanting to shrink back like this anymore.

"Hmm...Hmm! I want to join the baseball club as a manager, please give me your advice!"

"Eh?!"

"So that's it, why did you stand outside for so long?" the girl suddenly realized and said.

"Hug...sorry for disturbing you."

Sure enough, it still doesn't work. A hint of loneliness appeared on Moriyama Aoi's face.

The girl with long straight hair suddenly put her hands on Moriyama Aoi's shoulders and said excitedly.

"That's really nice of you, madam!"

"Hurry in and fill out the department application!"

Eh?! The situation happened so suddenly that Moriyama Aoi was a little confused about the current situation.

I saw the girl excitedly holding her hand and walking in. She quickly took out paper and pen and asked her to fill it out.

"Wow! Then our baseball club will have two female managers!" The girl was very happy, standing next to Moriyama Aoi and looking at her expectantly.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you what your name is." The girl suddenly remembered something and said a little embarrassedly.

"Ah...my name is Moriyama Aoi, first grade." Moriyama Aoi timidly replied.

"Oh, my name is Kato Momami. I am also a first-year student, so I am not a senior." Kato Momami smiled very cheerfully, with two small dimples appearing on her face, which gradually made Moriyama Aoi feel at ease.

"Hug...sorry."

"A real man! A real man! We will be friends from now on!"

Um...friends?

Well, friend!

Moriyama Aoi secretly shouted in her heart that she wanted to change herself from now on.

...

"Aoi-chan, if you don't come down for breakfast, you'll be late for school!"

The voice of Moriyama Aoi's mother from the first floor brought her back from her memories.

"Hey, hey, I got it."

After packing her things, Moriyama Aoi went down to the first floor, sat at the dining table and ate the breakfast prepared by her mother.

Aoi Moriyama's mother was in the kitchen next to her, skillfully making a bento, and said happily: "Your sister has a few days off from college and will come back from Tokyo today. Come back as soon as your baseball club activities are finished."

"Hmm? Is my sister coming back? That's great. I will be back soon." Moriyama Aoi also thought of her sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time, with excitement in her voice.

After a while, Moriyama Aoi quickly finished her breakfast and took the bento next to her.

"Mom, I've finished eating. I'm leaving first." Moriyama Aoi said goodbye to her mother in a hurry.

“Don’t forget the bento!”

"Here you go!"

...

noon.

Baishan High School teaching building.

"Ding ding ding" the bells in the campus rang.

"Ah, get out of class is finally over. I'm so hungry. Aoi-chan, let's eat." Kato Mo's beautiful voice with a coquettish accent sounded. She always couldn't help but want to make fun of Moriyama Aoi in front of her, try to be clever, and be a bit cheerful. A little joke or something.

"Yeah. Let's go."

Moriyama Aoi also smiled and nodded, accompanied by two other good friends from their class.

One is taller and the other has a ponytail.

They found a place on campus with fewer people, ate the lunch boxes they brought from home, and chatted while eating.

"Aoi-chan, I've mastered all the taiko drums!" Kato Monami said with a little pride.

Taiko is a monster-fighting and clearing game that the girls like them very much recently, and Aoi Moriyama also likes to play it. So Kato Monami made a small bet with her to see who can clear the level first.

"Hey, Monami-chan Si Kunichi! I'm only halfway through the game." Moriyama Aoi smiled and praised. She thought Kato Monami was really amazing. She got through it so quickly. She was in some of the more difficult levels.

I have been struggling for a long time.

When the taller girl saw Aoi Moriyama's expression of belief, she felt funny inside. You two are so cute. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Aoi-chan, please don't fall in love with Mona."

Meijiang’s got it.”

Kato Monami was shocked and pretended to be calm: "Why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

Kato Monami, who felt a little guilty, remembered that a few days ago she had to catch up on homework at night and had no time to play, so she asked her younger brother who was in elementary school to help her play for a while.

Who knew that her brother would get obsessed with it as soon as he played it. He played by himself all night and made a lot of progress in clearing the level. This morning he came to her in a hurry and said some incomprehensible words.

What, sister, I helped you clear the level directly, you must remember my credit. Definitely!

"Hahaha, Monami-chan actually asked her brother to help her fight." The taller girl revealed the answer and looked at Kato Monami jokingly.

"Eh, eh? How did you know?" Kato Monami was very shocked and confused how they knew what happened in her home.

Another girl with a ponytail tried to hold back her laughter, "My brother and Monami-chan's brother are in the same class. When the teacher collected homework yesterday, do you know what Monami-chan's brother said in class?

"

"What did you say?" Moriyama Aoi gradually became a little curious.

Kato Monami had a bad feeling.

"Haha, I can't help it, I'm laughing so hard..." The girl with a ponytail said in an imitating tone, suppressing her laughter.

"Teacher, my sister forced me to play games all day yesterday. My hands were swollen and I couldn't do my homework. That's why I didn't hand in my homework..."

"Hahaha"

"Hahaha"

Waves of unbridled laughter among friends rang out from this corner.
