The cleverness in the eyes of Yongcanghao

Chapter 3 The Dandelion That Falls

"This kind of fish can be found in any pond. They don't like to eat crucian carp, abalone, etc., so they feed on earthworms and frogs~" I spent a whole night memorizing this, and there are other species of phylum, family, family, genus, etc. Also read it together.He flipped through his father's anatomy books again and again.Just to be here today, to show Qiao a good performance.I pretended not to care and scratched the back of my head, turned my head and glanced quietly at Qiao.The strange thing is that he doesn't seem to care much about this professional explanation.He turned his eyes away, and the corners of his mouth twitched in disgust.Something else must be said.

The slap was very obvious in the quiet rest of the crowd.Qiao looked at himself strangely. "Okay! That's all over. Harada, let's go!"

It clearly didn't say that it was to fulfill yesterday's agreement.Seeing the light in Qiao's eyes, I knew he understood.What a true baseball idiot.Not as bad as myself.I think.

I moved my hands and feet skillfully.There was excitement in his voice that couldn't be concealed. "I am ready."

"OK, then go outside." I took Qiao's hand and was about to go out.He didn't dare to hold the person hard.But Qiao's standing resistance was too obvious.I was forced to turn around, and I saw Qiao retracting his right wrist with a grim expression, holding the baseball glove wrapped around the ball under his armpit.

Obvious defensive reaction.I immediately let go of his right wrist.There is indeed a kind of person who is quite disgusted with his body being touched by strangers.stranger.Indeed it is.

There was a brief standoff between the two.The relationship that had just been established fell apart in an instant in this offense.I regretted that I couldn't help myself the second time.Can it be remedied with baseball?

"Hao." While he was thinking, his mother came out from among the adults pushing and changing glasses, and shouted his name angrily.

There was a momentary blank in my brain.He didn't quite understand why his mother would come out at this time.

Setsuko took his hand, bowed and saluted, "It's time for us to say goodbye."

"Why is this? Qiao and I agreed to play baseball yesterday~"

"It's past three o'clock." His mother interrupted him roughly.

I looked into my mother's angry eyes and suddenly understood.But he still had hope in his heart.I hope that my mother will make an exception for his love of baseball and agree to his request. "Tutorial doesn't start until five o'clock. I can catch up."

"But you haven't done your homework yet."

It should come sooner or later.I knew Qiao had no interest in bluegill sunfish.You shouldn't have stayed up last night reading an anatomy book.But the first agreement with Qiao must not be broken.I stood up straight, took a deep breath, and calmly announced like a mature adult, "I will find a way, I don't have time to take care of tutoring now."

Saying that he would not give his mother time to refuse, he stretched out his hand and pulled Qiao away.Let the mother catch up with the wooden clogs in small steps behind.

"Coincidentally, hurry up! Don't get caught." This was the first time he disobeyed his parents' orders.This feeling of being in control of one's own life is like suffocating in a small cage for 13 years. One day, the owner forgot to close the door and he took advantage of the loophole to get out.

At three o'clock, there is a sunset glow in the sky, spreading from the shrine mountain to the front.Slices, layers upon layers, with fire-like enthusiasm.It seems to be running like this, taking this person to a small island without people, throwing as many balls as you like, and playing as long as you like.

"Hao." The hand behind him was released.The people behind them slowed down. "You need tutoring."

Remedial study is not the only thing in the world.It's much more important than that. "Who cares about that kind of thing!" He shouted almost subconsciously.My emotions were out of control.Or towards the person I have always admired.

"No. I. I'm sorry. I hate tutoring. But I have to go. This is my agreement with my father." You are allowed to participate in club activities, but your academic performance cannot be reduced.Isn't that what parents do all the time?Except Qiao's parents.

"Let's not talk about this. Where do you want to play? As long as you want to go, I can take you there." After all, I have been in Xintian for 13 years.I know better than anyone where there's room to play catch here.

Probably because I think I'm really reliable.The corners of Qiao's mouth parted into a smile, a little shy, and he spoke faster than usual.He shrugged playfully and said, "Whatever." Which means you decide.

As a result, the location was chosen in the parking lot of the black tea shop that just closed down last month, not far behind the house.There is only one reason to choose here, dandelion.I've always wanted to catch a clever ball surrounded by these flying elves, throw it back, and say, strike.At that time, Qiao should be smiling, in front of me, in the greeting of dandelions.

Since taking out the gloves, Qiao's eyes have been staring at me, never leaving.My heartbeat accelerated slightly, and my palms were a little sweaty.Is this the moment when dreams come true?If it is, no matter how nervous I am, I will do it again.

"Come on. Let's get started. What a coincidence?" Generally, this is the time when both the shooter and the catcher are making their own warm-up exercises.But Qiao just stood there, holding the ball in his right hand.It seems that some kind of sacred ceremony is being carried out, and no one should be disturbed.

I yelled again, raised my glove, and took a step with my left foot. "Coincidentally, I'm ready. Vote."

Qiao pulled down the baseball cap a little, covering a little forehead.Lift your hands overhead, lift your left foot, and pull your right arm back.At the same time as the left foot stepped out, the sharp eyes followed the soft ball across the distance between the two to reach the destination like a falcon.The ball that landed in the palm of Qiao's entire passion for the sport.

"Strike!" when I passed the ball straight back.The evening wind blew behind him.The elf went from behind me to Qiao's hand with the ball.The face of Qiao who catches the ball easily is proud and excited.

"Qingbo, go get my spiked shoes."

Qingbo, who didn't know where to get out, jumped out from behind the hiding box with a pair of well-maintained sneakers.He held up the winning prize as if he had made great contributions, "I'm ready."

Cleverly patted his younger brother's shoulder with his left hand, and looked into his smiling eyes with admiration.Then he took the sneakers and squatted down to put them on.He tied his shoelaces neatly, then raised his head full of fighting spirit, igniting the colorful clouds behind him.He raised his jaw provocatively, surrounded by dandelions who were forced to prostrate on the ground after being defeated by his momentum.

Infected by his enthusiasm, I felt a warm current gushing out from the top of my head and watering my whole body.The so-called enthusiasm, probably means meeting someone you like and doing what you like to do together. "Since the Harada player is serious, the Yongcang catcher will naturally accompany him."

I pat the middle of the glove lightly.This is the secret signal for throwing a straight ball in the center.Qiao nodded understandingly, and raised his left foot again.There was a sharp flash in his eyes, the ball was caught, and he spun around twice without losing his prestige.The palms rubbed a little hard.The power of this ball is not small.

"Good shot!" The back of my neck was sweating when I shot back.The evening wind blows a little cool.This man is more powerful than I imagined.His ball is faster than I've ever seen it.Must come up with 120 points of strength.I tell myself.

"Hao, I will use all my strength for the next ball." Monster.In other words, the one who almost escaped from my hand just now was just for fun.

"Hey, don't be in a daze. It's only less than 30 balls. Is it possible that Yongcang catcher will die so soon?"

"How is it possible?" I looked quite calm, but in fact I was quite irritable in my heart.So I tried my best to endure it, and used my calmness to cover it up.I don't know why, but coincidentally, this person always has a magical power to ignite a volcano in my heart with a swipe of his hand.I think, probably this life is destined to fall into the hands of this person.

"Hey, don't miss it! That's all the catcher of Yongcang."

Three straight balls flew out in succession.The sense of shame, the sense of restriction of mortals, the overwhelming crushing of talent, as well as the unreasonable sense of distance and the deep aversion to this distance, my head exploded with a bang.When you stand up, you have to speak boldly and utter harsh words.

Standing up, I realized that my mother was standing on the other side of the open space, staring fiercely at me, an unfilial son who skipped class.I was so absorbed in playing just now that I completely forgot the time.The traitor Sun didn't know when he slipped away ahead of schedule.The cyan night is as terrifying as the mother's face.I felt like a little frog being targeted by a python.

A person stepped out from the crowd of onlookers and broke the gloomy atmosphere with applause.He said frankly, "You voted well! You are indeed the coach's grandson." After speaking, he looked at Grandpa Jinggang and begged.

Grandpa Jing Gang nodded and agreed to this weird silent request.Then I told them, "Coin, Hao, play two or three balls with uncle."

Grandpa spoke up.Mother's Day is not good to say anything.Even if you have to make up two days of homework and be locked up in the bedroom for one night, it's worth it. "Okay." I replied.

Aomami took out two metal bats like magic, and smiled proudly at his grandfather. "I brought the bat. My brother's spikes and gloves. I brought everything related to baseball at home."

This kid Qingbo is really smart.Some people in the crowd applauded, cheering for Inamura. "Inamura, don't be struck out by the kids." "Come on! Former star player!" Inamura is a team member of Grandpa Jinggang and once played in Koshien.Now due to injury, he has to retire early.

"Yongcang catcher, we can't be underestimated by this disabled person." Qiao still spoke so openly.

Inamura didn't bother with him.Although the words are equally stinging. "Yongcang kid, don't fail to catch the ball, give me points. I don't want this kind of mercy."

I throw the ball back. "Who is a kid? Don't underestimate us." That's what he said.In fact, since Qiao said that I should use all my strength, I have doubts about my catching skills.

The chest is relaxed, the wrists, shoulders, waist, legs, and the whole body move smoothly.He is serious.I clenched my gloves tightly.Scared to live up to his pitching.I tell myself, I can do it.Amid such unease, Rolling Earth appeared.The adults were playing and laughing.Grandpa Jinggang tells Qiao that Qingbo is doing well.I hid my trembling hands behind my back where no one noticed.
