Diamond Ace Takanono

Chapter 59
Spring is coming, especially in Japan, where its footsteps are particularly clear. From south to north, the time when cherry blossoms bloom in various cities is a symbol of its arrival.

And on such a day that made people want to let out a sigh and finally get rid of the heavy clothes after venting, the four members of the Sasaki family divided into two groups and left.

"It's okay." Although Gao Zhiye had already made sufficient preparations, when Shen Qing was going to be hospitalized for observation one month in advance, she still couldn't help being a little worried.

"Don't worry, I was hospitalized early because I was afraid of being in danger at home. You should practice hard."

Then there are the two brothers, who carry a full two weeks of luggage, gather at the club, and go to a certain mountain in the countryside for a sleepover training camp.

In the car, Gao Zhiye received text messages from several team players. They had arrived at the training camp and found the name of the Kinoshita club on the banner, so they sent a message to ask him.

Gao Zhiye replied one by one, and Langzhi fell asleep as soon as he got in the car, and now he was holding his arm, leaning on one shoulder, sleeping until he was drooling, so Gao Zhiye could only reply with one hand. : "Yes, we are also going to that training camp. It seems that it is another cross-practice match. How many teams are there?"

The mode of this training camp is somewhat similar to the spring training of professional baseball. Teams belonging to different leagues are unified in a place with warmer weather for practice before the start of the season.

"I didn't look carefully, I'll go back and have a look."

"I saw on the sign-in form that there are 8 teams, and there are 4 training grounds here. It seems that different teams will share a site."

"Haha, we, Big Victory, and Tajima Little League have already occupied the best stadium, and the rest is a park stadium, an elementary school playground, and a former golf course."

Gao Zhiye received everyone's messages one by one, and he had a good understanding of the situation there. Judging by the slow state of Coach Ninomiya, it seems that several Little League head coaches discussed and took turns occupying the field.

After looking at the phone for a while, Takano also fell asleep at some point. When Coach Ninomiya began to wake everyone up, he looked out the window and saw that the scenery had changed drastically. The spring here obviously arrived earlier, and there were fresh flowers everywhere. green.

"Wow—" The car is still moving, and everyone is already full of expectations.

"Pack up your things. The bus will return to Tokyo in a while. If you leave something on the bus, you will have to go back to Tokyo to get it."

In the luggage of the two Gao Zhiye brothers, apart from snacks, socks and underwear are the most taken. If you are too tired to wash your socks, you can take a pair of them every day, and take home the dirty ones.

"Hey, Lang Zhi, get up quickly."

The car stopped, and the boy who was still in a daze followed behind his brother. A bag was hung on his body, his hands were empty, and the heavy things were in Gao Zhiye's hands in front.

"Take your things when you wake up."

The logistics staff checked in first to get the keys, while Coach Ninomiya stood in front of the players and explained the schedule for the past two weeks: "Wake up at 7 every morning, eat at 7:8, gather at 9, and start the practice match at 12. , Summary after the game, eat at 2 o'clock, lunch break until [-] o'clock, strengthen practice in groups in the afternoon, watch the game and do homework in the evening."

Soon the logistics personnel came back with the key: "10 people share one room, the first room, I read the name and go forward..."

The two brothers were assigned to the first room, and came in together with backup catcher Hiramiya, starting second baseman Yoshino and others, which were roughly half of the starting pick and half of the backup.

Gao Zhiye had never lived in this kind of Odori shop before, so he was very curious, and switched the switches everywhere: "The toilet is so small."

Then I heard the sound of a boy running outside, and a voice like a trumpet: "There are public sinks and showers."

"Go and see?"

"I still need to pack my things..."

"I'll clean it up later."

Good guy, as soon as Takano turned around, he was the only one left in the whole room. It was a mess outside, and footsteps were everywhere upstairs. It seems that in less than 5 minutes, this old hotel on the second floor will be destroyed. The children figured it out.

Gao Zhiye was going to take a stroll while taking a walk after eating, and now he had to send a message to his acquaintances in other teams.

"We've already arrived. We live at the foot of the mountain, very close to that elementary school. We probably want to use the playground of that elementary school."

As soon as I put down my phone to clean up, someone replied: "That's good, we live on the mountainside, it's still a bit cold."

"It's the hotel with two old trees next to it. I just passed by there. We're going to go around the road behind your hotel to the other end. The baseball field in the park has a low net, and it's easy to lose the ball."

It's very fresh, so many people who play baseball gather together, and it happens to be able to play against multiple teams to see what level of pitching they have.

"Du——" There was the sound of a bus engine stopping at the door of the hotel. Gao Zhiye lay on the window and saw a group of strange children getting out of the car. The laughter, the sound of adults taking care of him, the rubbing of luggage, the sound of the engine, and With the chaotic sounds of running, discussions, and doors opening and closing in the hotel, the entire space was filled with sounds.

Tired, already tired, so many children stuffed together, it's too messy.

Fortunately, those children only stayed at the entrance of the hotel for a while, and then walked towards the other side together.

One after another, there were voices coming towards this side.

"I always feel that upstairs is better than downstairs."

"But the upstairs is far away from the shower room. Every time I can only go through the front hall to go to the back to take a shower. It's so far away, and the body heat is gone."

"It's really warmer downstairs."

With a clatter, the Pingla door opened, and Lang Zhi said strangely: "Are you coming back with us first, or have you never gone out?"

"I'll go out later." The whole room is rectangular, the left third is the door, and the right end is the toilet. Ten bedding rolls are neatly placed. Gao Zhiye is leaning on one of the bedding rolls while speaking , The location is right between the door and the toilet, so you can see your bed without opening the door, and it is relatively close to the toilet.

Lang Zhi shrugged, picked up his bag and took out his things. Behind, like sardines, seven or eight people came in one by one.

"Takano-kun, I just spotted that position."

"Where is it? It's obvious that you all left your bags casually." Gao Zhiye retorted.

"It turns out that you have been planning to take up space just now!"

"You guys are too cunning, I don't want to sleep in front of the toilet." The substitute center fielder came in last, and saw that everyone quickly started to carve up the territory. His bag was pushed to the outermost side, near the toilet, and everyone went to the toilet at night , might step on him.

"Give up, who made you react last." Beside him, backup catcher Hiramiya patted him on the shoulder.

Playing and fighting, it's time to gather. This morning, the main thing is to adapt to the field. The playground of this elementary school is not a special baseball field, but artificial turf. The mound and base pack are also temporary.

Of course, it is the outfielders who are most affected. When they catch the fly ball, they spend most of their time staring at the direction of the ball to make adjustments. Then how to judge the distance from the wall? At this time, they need to be familiar with the field, like Kinoshita Club. When the baseball field is three meters away from the wall, it will change from lawn to sandy soil, so that once the outfielder feels the change of foot feel, it means that he has come to a dangerous area and it is time to slow down.

　At the end of the month, it's time to frantically look for invoices again, so I can't honestly pay for meals! ! ! ! ! !I even want to go to Haidilao's trash can to find out who doesn't want to pay the bill! !
