Diamond Ace: Another Story of Sawamura

·

“The game was exciting!”

"Azhe!"

"Isashiki!"

"Masuko!"

"You are the strongest!"

After greeting the audience, the players all headed towards the rest area. They needed to clean up the rest area as quickly as possible to make room for the next team.

"Senior Kawakami! Great pitch!" After taking a few steps slower, Eijun caught up with Kawakami, and the two of them followed behind the team.

"But I still lost two points..." Kawakami responded modestly, but he couldn't help but be happy about it.

"It's really good that you're holding up."

"This is all thanks to Sawamura."

"Kawakami-senpai's pitch was really good!"

Everyone turned around and looked at the two people speechlessly. They should be the ones taking credit, since the game was won anyway.

“……” Miyuki also found it funny, but Kawakami really performed well.

The pressure felt after each promotion becomes greater. Kawakami's ability to pitch in the second half of the game without performing abnormally is the biggest gain of this game.

"Although he lost two points, his pitch was really good..." Chris also spared no effort to praise Kawakami, "Especially the last pitch against Maki."

"And we can let Furuya rest according to the regulations... and we really didn't let Sawamura play..." Minister Ota had a happy expression in the first sentence, and a little depressed in the next sentence. It was really a mixture of joy and sorrow.

"..." Regardless of whether Sawamura reflected on his behavior, Kataoka was still happy about the gains from this game, "The strength of the entire team has finally improved."

"..." Unwrapping a lollipop, Rongchun pulled down his mask and put it in his mouth. Looking at his teammates walking in front of him, he couldn't help but bite the candy stick, 'There's still one game...'

Just one more win and we'll be in Koshien...

After the two teams left the field, the next team also entered the field and prepared to start defensive practice.

The match between Inagaki Industry and Sakurazawa High School will start at 1 p.m., and there is still some time before that, so Qingdao will finish its meal as soon as possible and go to the stands to watch the game.

After Rongchun returned to the bus and changed into his luggage bag, his cell phone rang and he received a text message.

"Got you!"

"Nearby!" This was the first sentence that came out of his heart. Rong Chun put on the gift bag as if nothing had happened, and then glanced around the bus.

Rong Chun has three identical mobile phones, one at home and one at school, which are private phones used exclusively by family and friends.

It is a habit developed when I was in the army. It does not save any irrelevant information other than this. It is like a work phone exclusively for the family.

One is for special purposes, and has everything...

"..." So, few people know this phone number, even the person you like doesn't know it yet, the backup phone number, 'Who is it...'

"Eijun, what's wrong?" Chun Shi asked worriedly when he saw Eijun suddenly standing still.

"Hmm..." Eijun closed his phone as he turned around, raised it towards Haruichi and said with a smile, "A friend came to watch the game, and I didn't even notice!"

"That's a shame..." Haruichi chuckled as if to comfort him, wondering if his friends would feel sorry for him, "Eijun didn't even get to play in the game today..."

"Well, what a pity..." Fūtani then patted Eijun on the shoulder as if to comfort him. If a friend came to watch his game specially and he couldn't play, he would definitely be very depressed.

"Yeah..." Rongchun smiled as if to thank the two for their comfort, "So, I'll go meet them first, and I'll be back soon!"

Speaking of which, Eijun ignored the curiosity of the seniors, said hello to everyone and ran away, "Ah... By the way, it's okay to eat my lunch box too!"

"Hey! Sawamura!"

"..." As soon as he left the bus's sight, Rongchun bumped into a figure in the blind spot and subconsciously caught it...

"Eijun!" Yi threw herself on top of him, knocking his hat off. "Are you surprised? I came to see you as promised!"

"..." Rongchun held onto Yi in a daze, and then couldn't hold back the joy that surged in his heart, and added, "See you tomorrow?" "That's great!"

“Don’t scare me!” Putting Yi down, Rong Chun grabbed her face while she wasn’t paying attention. “I thought I was being targeted when I sent such weird things!”

"It hurts...what is that!" Yi covered her face in pain and patted Rong Chun's hand to let him go, "I don't know..."

"Eh…"

"..." Seeing Rongchun frowned, Yi rubbed his face and tilted his head, "Are you being targeted?"

Rong Chun thought for a moment that with their abilities, it would not be difficult to find his backup phone number if they wanted to, but it looked like it was not Yi who did it.

"Hmm..." Rong Chun scratched his head helplessly, "Just now... I received a strange message on my backup phone..."

Speaking of which, Rong Chun opened his spare phone and found the message to show Yi.

"I found you..." After looking at the message, Yi blinked and smiled: "Do you want me to help you deal with it?"

"It's no big deal, I can handle it..." Rong Chun thought that he should be able to keep a calm and natural demeanor no matter what the situation is...

Besides, it's not like I haven't experienced this before...

"...Really?" Yi admitted that Rongchun's performance just now was impeccable, but it was ruined after seeing her, "If the person watching you was here, everything we said would have been heard!"

“Why do you look so excited…” Seeing that she looked like she was about to cause a big scene, Eijun was so amused that he picked up his hat and followed her.

"Xin must be lost, go find him quickly!"

"You must have lost him because you were running around..."

"By the way! I'm telling you... we met a guy today who we haven't seen for a long time!"

"Hmm?" Rong Chun couldn't stop his excitement and followed closely behind Yi, 'Who could it be...'

Could that person be someone he knew, or someone he never had the chance to meet?

"I'm here!"

Soon he found the two people, and Yi excitedly waved at them and ran over.

And Eijun was stunned when he saw the person standing next to Kokoro.

The last time I saw him was when I was on my way back to school after going to the hospital for a follow-up checkup. I saw that figure from the car window, but he stopped in time and didn't chase after the person he hit, Inashi.

'Crazy...' At this moment, Eijun felt that tears were about to overflow, but he held back his excitement and walked towards them before they noticed him.

"This is Qianye!"

"I'm Sawamura Eijun!"

"Qian Ye... is that his real name..." Rong Chun looked at Qian Ye, nodded to him, and then his eyes fell on the baseball bat sheath he was carrying, "You play baseball, don't you?"

“How is that possible!” Before Qianye answered, his heart rejected this possibility.

“Hahaha…” Yi also waved his hand to indicate that it was impossible, and whispered to Rongchun: “This guy is from the Bakusozoku, this is his weapon!”

"Hey!" Rong Chun's eyes sparkled when he heard this. These were things he had never known before. "Which district or city is this group of power in?"

"..." Qianye raised his chin slightly and looked at the guy he admired. He looked weak and stupid, "Shibuya..."

"It's in East Tokyo..." In that central area, it should be a powerful group, "It's a big city!"

"Has Eijun ever been to Shibuya?"

"without..."

"Then go there when you have time, it's a very interesting place!"

"Ok!"

"How's it going..." Xin chuckled as he followed the two of them.

"Generally..." Qianye gave this conclusion readily.

Every question was carefully avoided with a direct answer and stopped at just the right place, not too straightforward but still predictable, which was quite smart and cautious.

But in Qianye's view, it would seem that he has ulterior motives, but...those eyes that seemed to see through everything and were sincere made it difficult for people to doubt him.

Very similar to his eyes...

"Hahaha... As a result, you can't play in the game because of this..."

"Maybe... I won't even be able to play in the final..."

"Do you want me to help you..." Yi leaned close to Rongchun's ear and whispered in a gloomy voice: "Maybe you can still pitch the whole game!"

"No!" Rong Chun got furious when he heard that. This guy would definitely do something horrible if he said that.

"Don't worry about what I do, I will handle it perfectly!" Yi patted his chest proudly and winked to hint at the feasibility of Rongchun's plan.

“Wow… stop thinking!” This determined little expression made Rong Chun so anxious that she rushed over to interrupt the plan she had already made in her mind, “Stop thinking about it!”

"Ah... Stop it! My perfect plan!"

"Plan to retreat! Plan to retreat!"

The two of them quarreled all the way to the parking lot. Rongchun smiled and waved goodbye to the three people in the car, and did not forget to emphasize again, "You must not do anything weird! Otherwise I will be angry!"

"I know..." Yi leaned against the car window, mourning the perfect plan in her stillborn baby. She made a gesture to swear to the sky against her will, "I won't do anything weird..."

"Pfft..." Amused by Yi's contradictory oath, Rongchun lifted his mask and said with a smile: "That's what you said!"

"Also, we have work to arrange, so we won't be at school for a while, Eijun, don't feel lonely!"

"..." Rongchun was speechless for a moment, so he came here specially...

"...Good luck."

"..." The three people in the car were all stunned at the same time. Yi, who was closest to Rongchun, was the first to react. She blinked and smiled, "Thank you for Rongchun's blessing!"

After watching the car leave, Rongchun turned around and walked back. Suddenly he laughed, "Hehehe..."

Qianye during this period looked surprisingly... well-behaved, like a normal student, with none of the crazy personality he later became.

You know, he is recognized by everyone as the madman among madmen, and is directly given the code name "Mad Man".

I guess what's in that holster is not a baseball bat, but his knife.
