Takashi Nishino was not sure, and when he was about to ask again, Hato Koyuan and his teammates had already retreated to the first base side of the Joe Academy to rest.

Stadium broadcast reports.

"The nine games of the competition ended, Baishan High School won the victory, and now the school song of Baishan High School in Mie Prefecture is played."

Smiling and lined up with his teammates at home, Takashi Nishino faced the wide middle and outfield of the court, looking at the scoreboard in the distance and the slowly rising school flag.

The song then slowly played, and the school song of Baishan High School was once again played at the Jiaziyuan Stadium.

Not only were the players on the court singing loudly, but thousands of members of the support team in the Alpine stands were singing along, while the audience in the other stands were clapping their hands.

For a moment, school songs from schools in the mountains spread throughout the Jiaziyuan Stadium.

"Dao ~~"

...

"Ah~~..."

"Baishan~High School~"

"Baishan~~High School~~"

This is a unique moment of glory for high school baseball winners.

The players in Baishan sang the school song with their heads raised and smiled. In front of the rest seat on the other side of the first base, the players in Baode Academy who listened to the singing were even more sad.

A series of tears flowed silently from the sad faces of the players of Baode Academy, without a single cry, just letting the tears flow down.

Tears slid across the cheeks slightly, staining some mud, and dripped on the ground that was still hot after struggling.

Jiaziyuan.

For third-year players in Baode Academy, this is the dream of high school baseball. Asxs., and it is also the end of your high school baseball career.

Under the single-game knockout system, once the team is eliminated, third-grade players will never have the chance to return to Jiaziyuan.

"There is only once in a lifetime of summer!"

What players say goodbye with tears is their high school baseball career and their youthful years of struggle for.

After this, life will move to the next node.

Doing the purest thing in the purest time has become a daily memory created with your partner for two and a half years.

Goodbye, Jiaziyuan.

Goodbye, high school baseball.

A Japanese shortstop can't do it.

Farewell in my heart, Xiaoyuan Haidou raised his face and pursed his lips, trying hard not to let the sadness spread.

After other players returned, most of them considered going to school or finding employment, but Xiaoyuan Haidou was different. High school baseball was not the end of his baseball career.

He has attracted much attention from the ball community and is already very sure that he was named by professional teams at this year's appointment meeting.

The future of this type of star players will not change due to the win or loss of a few games. After Jiaziyuan, Xiaoyuan Haidou's next goal is professional baseball.

After the school song was finished, the players of the two teams went to the support stands to thank the scene.

Back in the rest seat, the players seized the time to pack up their things.

Since there are four games to be played today, the players from Nimatsu Academy and Urawa have already come out of the player channel in the next game, so Tetsu Nishino and his team must quickly leave the court and make a free rest seat for them.

The towel was stuffed in, the gloves were stuffed in, and the bat was stuffed in. If you couldn't put it in your backpack, you would hold it in your hand.

Soon, Takashi Nishino and the others sorted out their equipment, carried their backpacks one by one, and lined up in front of the rest seat.

"spread!"

Captain Hiroki Tsuji bowed to the court with a queue.

Thank you to everyone who helped them, thank you to the staff on site, and thank you to the holy ground in Jiaziyuan.

Baishan quickly lined up to leave, while the players on Baode Academy were busy digging.

In front of the rest seat of the First Base Side Baode Academy, dust was flying everywhere.

In the infield and rest seat of Hanshin Kaziyuan Stadium, the entire ground is paved with famous black soil.

These black soils are not commonly used in baseball fields across Japan, but are specially provided by Hanshin Gardening.

The black soil in Jiaziyuan is made of 60% of the black soil produced in Japan and 40% of the white sand produced in Fujian, China.

The black soil using this formula is a marker of Jiaziyuan.

There are 100 college baseball trips, and dozens of schools are defeated and returned home every year. The players finally come out and always bring some things back to commemorate them.

So digging back the recognizable Jiaziyuan soil became a tradition.

Third-grade players who lose the game will dig up a bag of soil and leave it as a souvenir for themselves or other supporters.

The open space on the first base side.

Baode Academy took out the bags they had prepared before, knelt in a row in front of the rest table, and dug the soil while crying.

In fact, third-grade players such as Hiroki Tsuji and Shogo Kuriyama on Shiratsuyama also have bags of digging, but they are not available for the time being.

Jiaziyuan traditionally means that third-year college players will dig soil when they come to Jiaziyuan, and the final conference is no exception.

While the players in Baode Academy were digging soil, the reporters and cameramen also went to the front and surrounded the players and cried bitterly.

A live broadcast camera captured the conversation between the players in Baode Academy complaining to each other.

"The first-year arrest in Baishan is so powerful, especially the catcher, it's simply too much."

"That's right, why don't you be a pitcher if the ball passes so quickly?"

"That kind of catcher will not let anyone steal the base, really."

"You said, is that catcher in Baishan really a first grade?"

"It should be true, I'm only 15 years old when I read the information."

"At 15 years old... I'm so outrageous."

"I was still on the bench when I was 15."

"What bench? You couldn't get into the Second Army at that time, I remember clearly."

"I feel so painful. I am so miserable. You still expose me..."

"You are so miserable that you have hit home runs, and Xiaoyuan is so miserable. You're almost autistic when you're blocked and killed twice."

puff!

Not far away, I was holding a handful of soil in my hands, and I was angry and smiling.

"Hey! I'm listening!"

"So according to this statement, can you turn around and go back to first base if you run slowly?"

"Hey, is this OK?"

"It's a ghost!"

The players at Baode Academy were very sad after losing, but now after playing, they have less feeling of remorse.

"It's enough to dig so much to grow vegetables, let's go."

The players at Baode Academy dug up the soil and quickly sorted out the items. After finishing the last game, they left the player channel.

Players who leave the game will first do some repairs in the infield lounge.

Tetsuya Nishino and Kazuya Nishino won the excellent players award in this game, so they were pulled to the interview area by Asahi News staff.

The host on Takashi Nishino asked with a smile.

"Teto Nishino, the team reached the quarterfinals when they first appeared in the Koko-yuan. What do you feel now?"

"Well, I am happy and grateful to be able to enter the quarterfinals now."

The host then asked: "In the second half of the last nine games, that double-kill defense really made people feel nervous. Have you ever thought that victory was so critical?"

"Actually, when the ball was clicked, I was also shocked. The hitter was a strong hit that was calculated by dozens of colleges and universities, but still had the determination to sacrifice and push the base."

"The opponent's determination to win gave me a great shock."

"It's hard to get a flying ball like that?"

"Well, I thought I couldn't lose to them in the pursuit of victory, so I rushed out and saw the runner heading towards the second base, and subconsciously passed the ball."

"So that's how it is, so the wonderful preservation was created like this." said the host.

"Thank you very much for your answer, and congratulations on your reaching the quarterfinals!"
Chapter completed!
