Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 341 Reluctant to give in to each other
"Out! Three outs! Attack and defense switch!"

Although Tojo hit a hit at the beginning of the fourth inning that was enough to redeem his previous games.

However, the direction of the game did not develop according to Qingdao High School's idea.

Behind them, there were only two more batters.

One is Kuramochi and the other is Aso Takashi.

Aso Takashi and Kuramochi each contributed two ground balls.

Among them, Aso Takashi's ground ball resulted in a double play, while Kuramochi's ground ball was due to miscalculation of the angle, leaving him with insufficient time to reach base.

Even if Tojo got a hit, it was still useless.

However, this is not enough to make Director Kataoka furious.

After all, Qingdao High School is now leading by four points.

"Top of the fifth inning, Yakushi High School offense, sixth batter, left fielder, Hirahata-san."

"Come on, Captain."

"Fight it out!"

"It must be a hit!"

"Your plan for the next fifteen years must include this step, right?"

Although Hirahata Ryo is the captain of Yakushi High School, his strength has never been among the best.

His rise to the top was mostly due to his experience.

When the main force of Pharmacist High School is made up of first-year young talents, the third-year experienced seniors are few and far between.

Therefore, Hirahata Ryo can rightfully become the captain.

Otherwise, whether it is Honglei City or Mishima, the captain would be unworthy of the title.

"Curveball."

For the first goal, Yukichi didn't say much, he just stretched out two fingers calmly.

"Whoosh!"

Holding the baseball with a specific hand shape, the white ball draws a perfect arc in the air.

However, this ball did not have much change, and it was completely incomparable with the big curve balls thrown by Danbo and others.

The ball path is very clear.

"Qiang!"

Although the baseball was swept out, it did not hit the center of the ball at all, but only swept the edge.

The powerless baseball rolled in front of Higasa.

"Out!"

Qingdao High School has done this basic skill countless times.

After captain Ryo Hirahata came on the field, he just touched the baseball and was kicked out.

One out and no one on base.

"Can't you even grasp such a simple changeup?"

There was a hint of smile on Zhou Hui's face.

At this moment, he finally understood.

There are only a few people in Pharmacist High School who can fight.

As the captain, Hirahata Ryo is probably the best fighter besides the others.

But now that he's gone, the others are no match for him.

The championship is already in the bag.

Zhou Hui didn't expect that the journey in autumn would be much easier than in summer.

In the summer, Sanada could suppress him by one at-bat.

"Seventh batter, right fielder, Yonehara-san."

Yu Yonehara is not a special person, and his biggest role in the starting lineup may be to make up the numbers.

The playing style of Pharmacist High School has always been based on their top line.

When playing in the lower position, Hong Lei Zang may not even look at it.

"Whoosh!"

"Qiang!"

The white ball flew into the strike zone with a falling distance of about two balls.

After being hit, the ball hit the ground, bounced back and fell into Zhou Hui's glove.

"Goodbye."

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

Two outs, no one on base!
Two different changeups, dealt with two batters.

Zhou Hui's changeup is not as bad as rumored.

"Eighth batter, second baseman, Masuda-san."

Zhou Hui took a deep breath and suddenly exerted all his strength in his hands.

This time, he didn't want to rely on the defensive forces at the back.

"nice shot!"

"nice shot!"

"Strike! Batter is out! Three outs! Attack and defense switch!" Three baseballs, hitting at the speed of light.

Masuda, who was in the batter's box, didn't even have the desire to swing before he was struck out.

This was clearly not the script just now, how come it happened so quickly when it came to me?

Director Kataoka also applauded to welcome everyone back.

Although they were not facing the important batting line of Pharmacist High School, it was still good to be able to hold on for another game.

At times like this, each game is more important than the last.

They are one step closer to dominating the Tokyo area.

"Bottom of the fifth inning, Seidou High School is on offense, the second batter, right fielder, is Hakushu-san."

The game continued.

Qingdao High School’s current idea is definitely to continue to expand the score.

This is the first time that Zhou Hui serves as a pitcher in such an important game, and it is still a question whether he can hold on in the end.

So now is definitely not the time to be careless.

"Qiang!"

"Abe!"

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

But the result was a little different from what they expected.

Hakushu, who was the first to play, was eliminated by Sanada with an inside corner kick.

No shame at all.

If we continue playing like this, we won’t have any chance of scoring.

"Third batter, catcher, Miyuki-san."

With a sly smile, Yukichi walked up.

Mentality has always been Yuki's greatest weapon.

"Whoosh!"

“This time it’s an outside corner kick!”

There was no one on the base, and Miyuki had indeed guessed the ball incorrectly.

Sometimes, Miyuki began to question himself. Is he really that kind of metaphysical player?

Although he himself did not believe it, the facts were there every time.

He had no choice.

It has always been like this.

"Qiang!"

Having guessed the ball incorrectly, Miyuki didn't even have room to adjust. Although he swung it out, his movements were extremely unnatural.

Because of this, baseball was firmly inherited by Mishima.

"Out!"

Mishima dragged his chubby little body and ran all the way to first base.

He is very tired.

Two outs, no one on base.

"The fourth batter, the pitcher, is Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Hui smiled silently and walked into the batter's box.

It seems that the score difference can only increase by one point this time.

Zhou Hui was full of confidence. When he went to the batter's box, he felt like a home run was beckoning him.

"Come on, let me see how much you weigh!"

Zhou Hui widened his eyes and looked towards the pitcher's mound.

But Sanada no longer had the arrogance he had before, and he took the initiative to ask for permission to recommend Zhou Hui.

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

As this action occurred, Zhou Hui was quite speechless.

"Ball. Ball. Walk."

Zhou Hui threw down the bat and ran to first base.

If this had happened earlier, Yakushi High School might really have been able to be on par with Qingdao High School.

It's just that they woke up too slowly.

"Fifth batter, second baseman, Kominato-san."

"Qiang!"

"Out!"

The ball hit by Haruichi was caught by Masuda at second base, and the inning ended.

Zhou Hui looked at the scoreboard with mixed feelings.

This time, they really refused to give in to each other!
