Chapter 239 Part238 Gathering of the Top Eight
At this moment, a fierce game has just ended at the Koshien Stadium.

Compared with the beginning, the number of people is still a little less. They are all spectators who just came to watch the match between Qingdao and Mingde Private School. About [-]% of the spectators are still streaming down at this moment, ready to watch the next two games Contest.

Although the intensity is definitely not as intense as the one I just watched yesterday and today, it is still very interesting, so there are not too many people, but there are fewer moments compared to the Qingdao competition, and it looks almost unchanged to the naked eye. few.

At the moment, in the stands, the group from Qingdao High School are also sitting in the stands to watch these two games. After all, there will be another draw after the quarterfinals. It is really hard to say who the opponent is, maybe they will match up The opponent who advanced in this game.

Watching it with your own eyes will still have a different experience than watching a video.

"This match is between Iwate's Hanamaki East and Shizuoka's Shingakukan. The supervisor who just watched Hanamaki East seems to know our supervisor, Miyuki, do you know?"

Kuramochi is good in the stands, so he gossips to Miyuki next to him.

"The director of Hanamaki East, Fujita Kazuhiro, said that when he was the ace of Hanamaki East, he once faced our supervisor in the semi-finals of Koshien, and lost to our supervisor. It seems that he once agreed to compete next time."

Miyuki stroked his chin, thinking about it.

"However, this agreement has never been fulfilled. The two people have similar experiences. They both chose to return to their alma mater to teach after graduating from university, but compared to our supervision... Fujita's supervision in the past few years. They all entered, and their rankings are not too low."

Speaking of the back, Miyuki glanced at Director Kataoka in the direction of the court with his hands folded not far away.

"Unexpectedly, Miyuki-senpai knows quite a lot!"

Eijun, who was sitting behind Miyuki, could hear clearly.

Hearing Eijun's emotion, Miyuki's eyes twitched, this guy must have some other plans, it would be hard not to piss him off as a senior.

But the next moment he knew that he was thinking too much.

"Senior Miyuki, do you think we will face them in the next match?"

Although Eijun is a bitch in front of Miyuki, under normal circumstances he is still a "good student" in front of Miyuki.

Miyuki: ...Who said that, I don't know why.

"Hanajuandong won this game. Let's talk about it. After all, the new academy is not made of mud. After all, it looks like the two sides are evenly matched."

Although Miyuki knew a little about supervising these early years and investigated the affairs of Seido before entering Seido, he didn't know much about the situation of these two schools at that time.

"Winning should be Hanamaki."

At this time, Chris took out his small notebook and said solemnly.

Everyone in Qingdao turned to him in surprise when they heard Chris's affirmative words, ready to hear the basis for what Chris said.

Sensing the stares of everyone, Chris felt no pressure.

"Hanajume East Academy, the supervisor was once a star player of Koshien. In the seven years since he took over the academy, he has been a frequent visitor to Jiashien every spring and summer. Under his guidance, the team's best performance has reached four. Strong, in the summer of the year before last, Koshien almost defeated the back-up Xibang High School to enter the championship and runner-up competition. Although they lost by 1 point in the end, but also from this time on, Hanamakihito's reputation and strength have also been improved. .

The overall team style is very strong, it is a strong attacking team, although the defense is not bad, but compared to their team's attack power, it is not very good.

All of them are violent and skilled hitters.

The scoring rate so far can be said to be comparable to that of Kiryu Osaka, which means that the style of this team is very similar to Kiryu, but compared to Kiryu's pure power type hitters, Hanamakidong's strength and skills are lower. want. "

Everyone listened and nodded.

At this moment, enthusiastic cheers erupted from the audience.

It turned out that at the beginning of the match between Hanamakihito and Xinxuekan, Xinxueguan, who was the first striker, returned without success. Not vegetarian.

Facing the third stick, Xinxueguan's trump card rose up and won the third stick.

Xinxueguan couldn't help being happy at this moment.

Unexpectedly, when facing Hanamakihito's fourth bat, the ball was violently blasted directly onto the huge electronic scoreboard, and he scored a three-point home run in one fell swoop.

3:0 leading Xinxueguan.

The power of the swing made the audience's blood boil, this is where hitting is more attractive than pitching, and everyone in Qingdao couldn't help being shocked.

With such a swing and style, there is a player in Seido who is very similar to Hanamakihito's hitter, and that is the one who is sitting and watching the game right now-Tetsuya Yuuki.

There is only one Captain Yuki in Qingdao, and there is a group of "Captain Yuki" in the east of Hanamaki.

Can they not take a breath of air!

I don't know the style of this blow, but I thought it was learning from their captain.

But after thinking about it, I know that this is definitely because I think too much. This style may be a coincidence, but if they meet such a team in the semi-finals, it will feel really bad.

Thinking of this, they all felt a headache.

Yuuki felt everyone's eyes and looked at everyone suspiciously, as if he didn't understand what was wrong.

Everyone in Qingdao: "..."

As expected of their natural captain, didn't they feel it? !

In this delicate atmosphere, the game on the field is still going on.

"Chong"

[Oh oh oh——! !It was another hit. Following the three-point home run in the previous inning, in this game, Hanamaki once again launched a strong attack on the ace of Xinxuekan. The repeated hits made Xinxuekan tired On defense! 】

[At this moment, the point difference has come to 4 points, the score is 2:6! ! 】

At this time, the match between Hanamakihito and Xinxuekan has reached the seventh game due to the passage of time, and the scores of the two sides are also increasing bit by bit.

Because Xingakukan is the ace guarding the mound, it barely lost too many points, but that didn't stop Hanamakihito's crazy scoring behavior. Still like an hourglass, although the amount is not large, it can't stop it from leaking!

In comparison, although Hanamakihigashi's pitcher failed to block Xingakukan's attack and lost points, it was really drizzle compared to the opponent's loss.

And he is still a backup pitcher who is not even an ace.

Just like this, they failed to score a lot of points. Comparing the two comparisons, it is really clear who is in control of this game.

Fortunately, the two sides have come and gone, and the situation is relatively balanced.

But in the first half of the seventh inning, this kind of back-and-forth situation was once again ruthlessly smashed by Hanamakito. Hanamakihito hit the third, fourth, and fifth consecutive home runs in the middle of the line, completely defeating the trump card of Xinxuekan. Yes, the whole team was completely crushed in this round.

"Damn it! Three home runs, this hit line is so violent! Especially the three hitters in the center line, they are too powerful."

Seeing this scene, Kuramochi couldn't help complaining.

"It's like seeing several captains Yuki swing their clubs!"

Haruichi Kominato couldn't help but click his tongue as he watched from the sidelines.

Looking at such a line-up, the four pitchers in Qingdao looked very different at the moment. Jiang Gu was full of fighting spirit, and the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers; How good is the trump card of the museum; Danbo's eyes were fixed, as if recalling the feeling of being hit by a home run not long ago, and he felt a little palpitation.

But in the end Danbo's eyes became serious, and he suppressed the palpitation to the depths, so that he would not fall down in the same place again, and a strong fighting will was ignited in his eyes at this moment.

And Eijun...

At this moment, he was watching with relish, and he didn't bring himself into the feeling of the opponent's pitcher at all, as if he had nothing to do with him.

"This village, aren't you afraid of meeting such a team?"

Seeing that Eijun was not affected at all, Miyuki couldn't help raising his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"what……?!"

Eijun was staring at the game seriously at first, when he suddenly heard Miyuki-senpai's question in his ear, he hadn't turned the corner yet, he was a little confused.

But after thinking about it, I knew what I was talking about.

"What's the use of being afraid? If you are destined to meet, you will meet anyway. Why don't you pray that Captain Yuki's luck in the quarter-final draw will be better, and don't be as lucky as the first round of draw, but I think it's quite hanging of."

Miyuki was silent for a while, especially when he heard that the captain was praying for better luck, he had to admit that it was a matter of luck.

The metaphysics of luck is really hard to say!

"However, this team's offense is really strong! If the pitcher is not strong, he will definitely be defeated. Fortunately, this team's offensive power is strong, but the defense was a lot weaker at the time. It’s still easy to find exploits when you’re at it.”

Eijun glanced at the silent Miyuki and continued.

"I didn't expect you to be very careful in your observations. This is indeed true. Hanamakidong definitely focused on attacking and practicing. On the contrary, his defense was just what a normal famous family should have. Against them, our Qingdao is not immune to counterattack. force."

As he said that, Miyuki glanced at Furutani and the others not far away, and then finally set his eyes on Eijun behind him.

"But in the final analysis, it still depends on the team's luck, hahaha, are you right, Kuramochi?!" Miyuki looked at Kuramochi next to him with a humorous tone.

"That's right!"

Kuramochi nodded with a heavy expression, while the corners of his mouth twitched.

No matter how much they think, no matter how much they think, they will not be able to match the Zhe team who went to the lottery to decide the world, so the best way is to let the Zhe team increase their luck.

While a few people were talking, the game had reached the ninth inning, and the result was as expected, Youhua Juandong won the game with a score of 8:4.

So far, Huajuandong has won the seventh place in the top eight.

In the next game, it was Tokei Hanaseki (Saitama) vs. Hakuryu High School (Gunma). The result of this game was not surprising. A place in the top eight.

And the third round of competition also came to an end by this time.

August NO.17, the quarter-finals battle has come to an end.

Eight schools of (Miyagi) Yuei, (Osaka) Kiryu, (South Hokkaido) Troll Daifujimaki, (East Tokyo) Teito, (West Tokyo) Aodo High School, (Iwate) Hanamaki East, (Gunma) Hakuryu High School, (Tokushima) Naruto will compete for the final four on the second day after the lottery ends tomorrow, which is August NO.19.
