morning.

White Mountain High School Baseball Stadium.

Everyone sat around the shade and saw the supervisor holding a stack of cloth in his hand, he suddenly became expectant and nervous.

Today is the day to announce the distribution of the backing number.

Supervisor Totoshi stood in front of the players and slowly spoke.

"No. 1, Kazuya!"

"yes!!"

Kazuya Nishino responded to the sound, stepped forward and solemnly picked up the cloth piece, and then returned to the line.

The number 1 memorization has been replaced.

Everyone had such an idea, but they were not surprised because they had expected it before.

Matsuye Lixin plays baseball more Buddhist. He communicates less with his teammates when he is on the court, so he wears whatever he gives.

Such a personality lacks some enthusiasm, and it may be more troublesome when it comes to driving the atmosphere of the entire team.

Kazuya Nishino made great progress this year, with the maximum ball speed refreshed to 150 kilometers, and the ball control stability was also done well. Moreover, his noisy temperament often drives the atmosphere of his teammates.

Therefore, the Supervisor Totakuji gave No. 1, which symbolized the team's ace, to Kazuya Nishino.

then.

"No. 2, Xiaozhe!"

"yes!"

"No. 3, Oda!"

"yes!"

"No. 4, Dashi!"

"yes!!"

"No. 5, downtown!"

"yes!"

"No. 6, Tamura!"

"yes!!"

"No. 7, Kimura!"

"yes!!"

"No. 8, Yibo!"

"yes!"

"No. 9, Komata!"

"yes!"

“No. 10, pine leaves!”

"yes."

The people who were pronounced their names came forward one by one and took the piece of cloth back and returned to the place where they were just sitting with a happy smile.

Afterwards, Tokushi continued to study the candidates from the 11th to 20th, and then disbanded the team and left the third-grade players who did not get the number.

Third-year players who are not included in the county conference list are equivalent to de facto retirement.

Some of the third-grade players burst into tears silently.

Supervisor Totoshi walked up to them, patted their shoulders, talked to them about the little things in the past, and comforted the third-grade players who were not selected one by one.

Since the number of members of the first term has increased, such sad scenes have occurred every year.

This year, the data application of Baishan High School’s baseball department has achieved results, and second-year players have gradually gained a foothold with their performance.

Among the 9 people who first-time numbers, there are as many as 7 people in the second grade.

It is said that Komata Meteor is a little helpless in the third grade of this class. The growth momentum of the previous and next classes is very strong, and it is indeed squeezed them to the bench with their strength.

On the other hand, this can also show that Baishan High School's current outstanding class is in the second grade.

After the team was disbanded, there was a half-day vacation.

Because of helping to pack up, Zhang Zhe went back half an hour later and walked alone.

Passing by the shop street.

Zhang Zhe discovered that the town people were already looking forward to the arrival of the hot summer.

Handmade papers of support from Baishan High School Baseball Department were posted in the windows of some shops.

The most eye-catching thing is the big blackboard in front of a bookstore.

The entire blackboard was drawn by the shop owner with colorful chalk into the classic Jiaziyuan scoreboard wall pattern, with the striking "National Dominance" in the middle.

The person I met along the way greeted Zhang Zhe.

Almost all encouragement words like "Come on the county conference", "Go and win", "I want Japanese first this year".

Back home.

After making up for the homework for a while, Zhang Zhe almost completed the review. I think there is no need to worry about the final exam.

I received many Line messages from my phone. I opened it and found that it was sent by my teammates.

The results of the announcement of the county conference list are naturally that some people are happy and some are worried, and some happy and some lost people send messages to talk to the captain.

Zhang Zhe responded seriously.

After finishing it, he couldn't spare, so he found the bat and went to the yard to swing.

While I was sweating a little, I heard a sound from far to near.

"hey-hey!!"

"Azhe!"

"Are you there!!"

Before seeing the person, I heard the sound of him first.

When Zhang Zhe heard the whistling laughter, he knew it was Kazuya Nishino.

Kazuya Nishino popped in from the door.

"Oh! Azhe, you are indeed practicing at home! You are worthy of being the training maniac of our team!"

"How are you practicing?"

Zhang Zhe stood on the bat and smiled, "Oh, it's rare, when did you care about my training?"

"Well, I'm going to be Ace of Shirashan from today. It's normal to care about playing the line." Kazuya Nishino said proudly.

"Okay, then I'll congratulate you on getting No. 1 memorization first, and then you'll be completely relieved to get our lineup."

Zhang Zhe said confidently: "Although I am changing my posture and playing style, I don't have to worry."

Originally, Toyama Yuejing predicted that it would take half a year to a year to adjust the attack posture, but Zhang Zhe's amazing progress once again broke the limit of his imagination.

According to Toyama Yuejing, Zhang Zhe has completed 80% of the renovation project, and it is easy to deal with this summer county conference.

"That's good, I believe you, by the way, Azhe," Nishino Kazuya asked, "Do you remember what you said before?"

"certainly!"

Zhang Zhe remembers every promise he made.

"Japan's No. 1 arrest!"

"Absolutely do it!"

...

July 13, 2019.

The 101th round of the 3rd major conference of players is held at the 4th-day market stadium.

Last year, Baishan High School of Yousheng School returned the Yousheng flag to the conference organizing committee.

The Sanchong County Summer Conference officially began.

Because Baishan High School is the first seed team, the first round of the game will have to wait until the second round of the game.

During this period, Baishan continued to train and prepare for the battle.

In the court.

Zhang Zhe, the two deputy captains, Harvey and Komata Meteor, were bothering about one thing.

There is a large piece of cardboard about half a meter in the bench in the pergola. On the cardboard are sticky thousand paper cranes stacked one by one, and the thousand paper cranes of green and white colors are spelled into four characters.
