Chapter 35 Selecting High School Fieldball Conference
"There are still two days until the official opening of the 78th High School Baseball Selection Conference on March 23. The members of the First Army must make good use of this time and adjust their condition; the day after tomorrow is the spring break.
On the morning of the first day, members of the first army, recorders and assisting team members set off for Nishinomiya City; others will go to Hanshin Koshien Stadium in batches to watch the game under the arrangement of the school. "Supervisor Kataoka will finalize all subsequent club arrangements,"
Is everyone clear?"
"It's clear!" Everyone in Qingdao responded loudly.
"Then let's disband." After speaking, Director Kataoka left first.
After Supervisor Kataoka left, everyone in Qingdao left the training ground together. Those who needed to eat had a meal, and those who needed to go home went home.
"Isashiki." Many first-year baseball club members gathered around Isashiki Jun who was standing there with his head bowed.
"Okay, let's go eat! What are you looking at!" Isashiki Jun raised his proud head and shouted with a ferocious expression. Unfortunately, his red eyes showed his emotions clearly.
Kominato Ryosuke came over and patted Isashiki Jun on the back: "Let's go eat together. Only when we are full can we have the strength to continue training."
On March 22nd, at 8 a.m. on the first day of spring break, the school bus from Qingdao arrived at the open space in front of Qingxinliao. Everyone in the army got on the school bus one after another, carrying more and heavier luggage than usual.
All members of the First Army will go to Nishinomiya City, Hyogo Prefecture today to participate in the 78th High School Baseball Selection Tournament, which will be held on a cloudy day.
Ms. Takashima Rei has already contacted the people from Qingdao where they want to stay during the Koshien festival in the spring.
A B&B that is only two kilometers away from Hanshin Koshien Stadium has been rented by the Seido High School Baseball Club. During this period, everyone from Seido will stay here. If they are lucky enough, they may be able to stay there.
The day when the 78th High School Baseball Selection Tournament concluded.
At the same time, Takashima Rei also contacted a middle school near Zuo B&B and loaned their venue to everyone in Qingdao during this period.
"Have we booked the entire B&B?" Qingdao's school bus drove into the front yard of the B&B. The people who got off the school bus couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the B&B in front of them.
The staff and service staff of the B&B were waiting at the entrance of the accommodation building to welcome everyone from Qingdao into the lobby on the first floor.
After introducing the layout of the B&B to everyone in Qingdao, the general of the B&B handed the room card to Minister Ota, bowed, and then retreated.
After everyone in the First Army selected their rooms, sorted out their belongings, they changed into another set of clothes and gathered again in the lobby on the first floor.
"Are everyone here?" As the captain, Dong Qingguo counted the heads, and after confirming that everyone was here, he left the B&B and walked in the direction of Hanshin Koshien Ball.
After a while, everyone saw the dream place of countless people including them, Hanshin Koshien Stadium.
Around the perimeter of Hanshin Koshien Stadium are various shops selling products related to Koshien. After walking around the perimeter of the stadium for a while, you can see the Hanshin Koshien History Museum.
Along the way, the Qingdao people met many people of the same age who came to visit Hanshin Koshien Stadium in groups like them. After walking around the area around the Hanshin Koshien Stadium for a long time, the Qingdao people found them.
The target, Koshien Suzhanwu Shrine.
"We're here, hurry up and ask for the signature!" Daiki Murasuke patted the captain Dong Qingguo on the shoulder and asked him to move faster.
"Why are you so anxious? Didn't you see there were so many people there?" Dong Qingguo raised his hand and pointed at Mitarai, who was surrounded by many people of the same age. He was probably a player of various teams participating in the high school baseball selection competition like them.
After everyone in Qingdao waited for a while, they calmed their hands one after another from Mitarai, then went to the main hall to drop the wishing coins, clasped their hands, closed their eyes and prayed. After doing the above, they went to buy another one similar to a baseball.
On the painted horse, write your wishes and hang it up.
After that, other people gathered around the Eastern Qing Kingdom again to confirm whether the divination that the Eastern Qing Kingdom requested was auspicious or unlucky.
Dong Qingguo looked at the signature number on it, and then went to the signature clearance office to get the signature.
"Xiaoji."
When they opened the signature, the first thing they saw was the two big characters representing good and bad luck.
"For Dong, this time's luck is pretty good."
After asking for signatures at the shrine, everyone in Seido laughed and laughed all the way back to the B&B. Then they took their bats and headed to the middle school that Rei Takashima had contacted before to start today's batting practice.
…
At 9 a.m. on March 23, thirty-two schools selected for the 78th High School Baseball Selection Tournament brought their players to Hanshin Koshien Stadium in Nishinomiya City.
Five hundred and seventy-six players, full of energy, lined up on the court at Hanshin Koshien and listened to the organizer's speech.
Sixty-five minutes later, as the opening ceremony ended, players from each school exited the Hanshin Koshien Stadium.
After walking out of the Itashin Koshien ball, everyone in Seido talked about the next arrangements, because the match between Seido and Hokkaido Ei was on a cloudy day, which was the first game on March 24, starting at 9 a.m.
Before setting off from the B&B to Itashen Koshien Stadium in the morning, Supervisor Kataoka told them that after the opening ceremony, they would have half a day for free activities, because they would devote all their energy to selecting high schools.
There is no extra time for them to relax in the baseball conference schedule.
Therefore, everyone was discussing how to spend this short half day.
Some people met up to go shopping nearby, some were going back to the B&B to take a rest, and some chose to spend half a day training.
Yagami Ye also has his own arrangements. His mother Takako Yagami specially found time to come over to watch the opening ceremony of the high school baseball selection competition, and she had made an appointment with him in advance to have lunch together.
"Xiaoye!"
Yagami Ye, who was thinking about where to go to meet his mother, suddenly heard his mother's voice. He turned around and saw his mother standing with a middle-aged woman whom he knew and had a good relationship with, but who should not be here.
.
Takako Yagami held her friend's arm with her right hand and raised her left hand to wave in case Yagami didn't see them.
Yagami came to them at a trot: "Mom, and...Aunt Yagyu, you guys..."
"Xiaoye, today my mother and your aunt Jianzi met again after not seeing each other for a long time, so she and I have made an appointment to go shopping and have dinner together, so you don't need to accompany me."
As Takako Yagami spoke, he generously took out 100,000 yen from his bag and handed it to Yagami Ye: "This is your pocket money during this period. Okay, you go and play with your classmates. Let's go first."
Gone."
After finishing speaking, Yagami Takako looked at each other with a smile and turned around to leave, leaving only Yagami Ye who was standing there in shock with one hundred thousand yen in his hand. This chapter has been completed!
