Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 274 Familiar Name

On the night after the game with Teito High School, the students of Qingdao High School returned to the dormitory and stayed in bed.

They had no other wishes but to have a good night's sleep.

Just have some sleep.

This is true for Zhou Hui, a physical monster, not to mention others.

The first battle was against Dididong High School, and no one would feel exhausted.

The first game was such a drain on the team. If they really meet Daocheng Industrial in the subsequent games, physical adjustment will also be a problem for Qingdao High School.

But fortunately, they still have a game against Qishan High School to rest before facing Daocheng Industry.

Nanamori High School is not a big-name high school, nor is it a famous school.

Entering the second round, that was almost their limit.

Therefore, Qingdao High School has already set its sights on the future game against Daocheng Industrial.

If there are no major problems, Qingdao High School's opponent in the third round will be Daocheng Industry.

Like Qingdao High School, Daocheng Industry also defeated its opponents and reached the third round of the competition.

The only difference from Qingdao High School is that Daocheng Industrial's road to promotion seems to be smooth sailing.

In their first match, they faced the bottom-ranked high school in East Tokyo.

Winning that game didn't take any effort at all.

Their opponent in the next round is also a team that they have rarely heard of, East Tokyo High School.

Ukusumori High School!
It shouldn't be difficult for Daocheng Industry to take him down.

Therefore, in the match against Nanamori High School, Coach Kataoka will definitely rest many starting players to prepare for the next match against Daocheng Industrial.

It seems that the match between Qingdao High School and Daocheng Industry in the third round has been decided.

No one would think that a troublemaker would appear between Nanamori High School and Ukusumori High School.

"Senior Watanabe, I'm going to take a nap first. If Director Kataoka has any plans, you can wake me up later."

After Zhou Hui finished talking to Watanabe, he lay down on his bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Today's game was really tiring.

If he doesn't get enough rest, he might not be able to recover.

The aches all over his body really made him feel uncomfortable.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, the Suns kid's ball control is still so sharp."

Although Zhou Hui hit two home runs against Mukai, he still highly recognized Mukai's strength.

"that……"

Watanabe, who was counting the data of Daocheng Industrial's new players on the table, saw something he didn't understand. He was about to call Zhou Hui, but found that the latter had fallen asleep.

There is a reason why Zhou Hui’s recovery ability is among the best.

Fall down and go to sleep.

Watanabe shook his head helplessly and had no intention of calling Zhou Hui to get up.

He knew that Zhou Hui was tired, and it would be immature of him to wake him up at this time.

Seidou High School still has games to play later, so it’s better to let this main fourth batter have a good rest.

It would be okay for him to spend a little more time researching the information about Daocheng Industrial's new players.

Thinking about this, Watanabe continued to scribble and make revisions in the notebook.

……

Until 6pm.

Zhou Hui slowly opened his eyes, stretched and relaxed.

The four-hour nap really made him sleep well.

All the feelings of tiredness disappeared.

It feels so good!
And at this moment, another piece of white paper appeared on his desk.

"Watanabe-senpai, what is that?"

Zhou Hui hadn't gotten out of bed yet, and asked lazily, pointing at the piece of white paper on his desk.

Watanabe immediately stopped what he was doing and explained to Zhou Hui, "This is the information about Nanamori High School. It includes the positions and characteristics of each of their players."

Zhou Hui nodded.

It seems that Director Kataoka is very meticulous. Even for Nanamori High School, he made a detailed report.

Zhou Hui walked over and picked up the white paper.

It indeed contained the tactical play of Qisen High School and the technical characteristics of each player.

Nanamori High School is not considered a strong team, so Coach Kataoka did not gather everyone together for a meeting.

But there are still necessary procedures.

He wrote down all the people from Nanamori High School on a piece of white paper and distributed it for everyone to see.

Zhou Hui took a quick look and found that these players were just like that.

There is nothing particularly strong, it can only be said to be average.

The same can be said of their ace pitcher.

However, the name of their ace pitcher made his eyes light up.

He knew this player.

Thumbs up to Koshigaya!
That’s the friend that Zhou Hui played basketball with in Hokkaido, Azan!

Unexpectedly, he, who had average ability, had the opportunity to play basketball in the Tokyo area.

Even though it was just Nanamori High School, it still made him feel a little unbelievable.

I thought that someone with his personality would stay in the comfort zone of a low-level school in Hokkaido for the rest of his life.

But no one could have imagined that he would jump out and choose to come to the Tokyo area, which was a fierce battle zone.

"It seems that you have grown up too."

Looking at Azan's name, Zhou Hui actually felt a little relieved.

Although Azan usually makes Zhou Hui very unhappy, Zhou Hui is actually very happy because he can see his growth.

After nodding, Zhou Hui put away the list.

Except for Azan, there is really no one on the list who deserves his attention.

Nanamori High School is not a strong school. If their ace pitcher was not Azan, but another pitcher of equal strength, Zhou Hui would not even pay attention to him.

……

And at Nanamori High School.

Inside the baseball team's meeting room, before the coach of Nanamori High School said anything, the other players began to chat in a noisy manner.

This scene is also a microcosm of what all public schools in Nanamori High School imagine.

Because of their lack of strength, the supervisor has no authority at all. Although the players are motivated, their strength prevents them from thinking too much.

So seminars are always a mess.

Not all public high schools are like Wanggu High School.

Most of the time, it's like Nanamori High School.

Of course, not everyone in Nanamori High School is like this.

The same cannot be said for their ace pitcher, Azan.

After being taught a lesson by Zhou Hui, Azan's mental state improved greatly.

This can be seen from the fact that he chose to come to Tokyo to play baseball.

In the fall of his freshman year, he could become an ace pitcher at a high school in the Tokyo area.

To be honest, he still has potential.

Just not that top notch.

Among public schools, this level is only second to Wanggu High School.

Azan couldn't help but get excited when he saw Zhou Hui's photo and highly praised information on the big screen.
