Kurosaki laughed loudly and pointed at senior Chris in front of him and said: "Is this the reason why Kimura can join the first army, but I can only stay in the second army?"
As if he noticed the eyes of others looking at him, Kurosaki quickly calmed down his emotions, stood up straight and bowed towards senior Chris opposite him.
"I'm sorry, senior." Kazuko Kurosaki expressed his apology to senior Chris, "I didn't mean to offend!"
Chris raised his eyebrows. This guy's apology was completely insincere. Although his face was full of apology to himself, he understood that it was probably for other people to see.
Chris asked in a deep voice: "As a pitcher, isn't this important?"
"Um……"
Kurosaki looked away again, scratched his face with his hand, hesitated for a while, and then began to answer the question posed to him by his senior: "For pitchers, they want to stand on the mound and continue to pitch.
It’s a very normal thing…”
"But isn't it up to the supervisor and you catchers to decide?"
Kurosaki lowered his proud head as a pitcher and said in a low voice: "Pitchers are very emotional creatures. They cannot face themselves and understand the situation. They will stay on the mound as long as they have the chance..."
"As catchers, you need to judge the pitcher's condition to determine whether the pitcher should remain on the mound..."
Kurosaki raised his head and looked directly at Senior Chris in front of him, and said with concentration: "Senior, I can't do it if you are obsessed with something that is completely beyond your control."
Chris looked at the young man in front of him and listened to him explain his answer. For a moment, he felt a sigh in his heart.
"Kurosaki." Kazuko Kurosaki may have heard the senior's sigh, "This happens when a pitcher is taken off the mound, but not all situations are like this."
Kurosaki Kazutaka didn't buy it. A trace of ridicule flashed across his face, and then quickly disappeared: "Senior, I know that there are indeed cases where a pitcher is removed from the mound without the decision of the supervisor or the catcher, such as a pitcher.
He himself believed that there was a problem with his condition, which might lead to defeat in the game, so he proposed to change shots..."
"However, such situations are rare. Most pitch changes are made by the supervisor himself or asking the catcher about the pitcher's situation, rather than the pitcher himself..."
Kurosaki noticed that the senior in front of him wanted to refute, but he did not stop to let the senior say what he wanted to say. Instead, he continued speaking on his own.
"I know what the senior wants to say. I admit that most pitchers are stubborn and passionate. I have no way to fully understand my own status. But as a partner, the catcher can be more calm by catching the pitcher's pitch.
judgment.”
"But, this is exactly the reason why I can't stick to the pitcher's mound." Kurosaki lowered his eyes and slowly expressed his feelings: "I stayed on the pitcher's mound wholeheartedly, and when I was replaced, it was too much.
It’s painful…”
"Senior, do you know that kind of pain?"
Chris felt a little uncomfortable, as if he was recalling the past when he was not injured, squatting behind home plate to catch the ball.
"Senior, I absolutely don't want to experience that kind of pain, so..."
Kurosaki showed another sarcastic smile, raised his chin, and looked aloof, "I can't be obsessed with staying on the pitcher's mound to pitch."
"Or... is Director Kataoka's most important criterion for judging pitchers only the passion for pitching and the obsession to stay on the mound?"
After Kurosaki finished speaking, his eyes were bright and he stared at the senior in front of him. Senior Chris also changed from sighing before to empathizing, and finally returned to the indifference at the beginning.
It's really troublesome. This guy is really difficult to deal with! If it were Miyuki Kazuya and Kuraza Naoya who had retreated to this point, they would definitely believe what he said! I can only say that Chris-senpai is indeed Miyuki Kazuya.
The person he also admires and pursues, and the most respected senior of Kuraza Naoya.
Faced with this situation, he could only sigh secretly in his heart.
"How long do you want to prepare to pretend?"
Chris's face became gloomy, and he kept approaching the dark-skinned boy in front of him. In the blink of an eye, he retracted the arrogance on his face, and looked at him with a calm face.
"Senior, I really can't be obsessed with the pitcher's mound." Kurosaki's tone sounded very cold, without any emotional ups and downs.
"To be honest, if I was obsessed with the pitcher's mound, why would I come to Qingdao instead of going to a weak team?"
"In a weak team, with my ability, the pitcher's mound is not within my reach." Kurosaki Kazaka said with a sarcastic sneer, "I chose Aido for the sake of victory! It's for the sake of winning.
You will only study here at Qingdao after entering Koshien!"
"If you ask me, you are being hypocritical! You know clearly that the pitcher's mound is a common property of all pitchers on the team and cannot be used exclusively, but you want the pitcher to be obsessed with the pitcher's mound!"
Kurosaki looked at Senior Chris in front of him angrily, "How long do you want to keep pretending? In this baseball world where strength is paramount, you don't select regular players based on strength. Instead, you struggle with this.
Plant small things."
"Senior, if you are not obsessed with the pitcher's mound, your will will not be strong enough, so the pitcher's pitching will be weak. That is your self-righteous judgment. This is a judgment that only relies on your own experience but has no scientific basis!"
Kurosaki Kazuko showed disdain and disdain for this.
"To use this to determine whether a pitcher is eligible to stand on the mound is simply ridiculous!"
"Is this your answer?" Chris asked, looking at the dark-skinned boy in front of him.
"Yes." Kurosaki's tone was very calm.
This is a pitcher who is calm, smart, and extremely distrustful of others.
He has very keen observation and judgment about what happened to him. When he asked him about the strange things he showed, he was not ready to tell the truth from the beginning. Instead, he launched a series of tests to himself, trying to
Use your own reactions to judge Director Kataoka’s true thoughts, and then decide on an answer that meets the requirements.
Chris stared at Kurosaki, who looked calm at this time. If he hadn't noticed that his voice was no different from before when his eyes turned red, even he might have been deceived by him.
This was the first pitcher like Kurosaki he had ever encountered. This chapter has been completed!
