Chapter 60 Follow-up

Everyone in Qingdao lined up to listen to Yokohama's school song. After bowing to the audience, they returned to the rest area and began to sort out the things they had brought. Miyauchi Keisuke handed over the baseball and pitcher's cover.

Iori Yagami, like Jinguji-senpai and Matsuda-senpai, tossed the ball to each other and did some post-match relaxation exercises.

Reporters also gathered around this time and began taking photos of the players they were following.

Although Seido lost, the outstanding players of Seido who had already reached the semi-finals also appeared in everyone's sight. Not to mention the third graders such as Tokiyokuni, Murasuke Daiki, Fujii Takashi, etc., Yagami Ya

This sophomore is also a good prospect worth paying attention to.

These reporters may like to watch the losers cry in order to move themselves and attract readers. When the reporters taking pictures around Yagami realized that he didn't seem to want to cry, they all turned their heads to take pictures of those secretly paying attention to Seido's team.

A sobbing third grader.

After packing up everything and preparing to leave, everyone in Qingdao met the Yokohama team members at the exit.

As the winning side, Yokohama's Supervisor Watanabe and his team members signaled to everyone at Aido, then bowed to the reporters who gathered around to take pictures, and left the stage first.

Everyone in Qingdao waited quietly aside. It was not until everyone on the Yokohama side had entered the exit passage that they began to bow to the reporters on the side and then walked into the exit passage.

Although Qingdao lost the semi-finals against Yokohama, there were many interviews after the game, especially for the teams that had reached the semi-finals, and all aspects were paid close attention to.

At the reporter's request, Director Kataoka allowed Higashikata and Jingujiichi to stay.

After they were interviewed separately for a few minutes, the reporters began to disperse.

When leaving, Director Kataoka took Higashi Kiyokuni and the two of them through the interview room used by Yokohama and the others. They could see that there were many more reporters gathering inside for interviews than they did at Seido, and the players spent more time being interviewed by reporters.

They have grown a lot.

Director Kataoka looked at the people in Yokohama who were surrounded by flashlights and microphones, and then looked back at Tokiyokuni and Jinguji Ichi who were following behind him.

Although Dong Qingguo doesn't cry like he did when the game just ended, he still raises his hand to wipe his red eyes from time to time. As for Jinguji Ichiichi, he starts to become silent.

After returning home, he might have a good talk with Jinguji.



At five o'clock in the afternoon, Qingdao's team members came to the dining room on the first floor one after another.

The waiters at the B&B have already set up two rows of long tables filled with all kinds of food.

Everyone in Qingdao looked at each other and the other people around them. Most of the people's eyes were red, and no one had the intention to speak. After everyone sat down one after another, no one wanted to move their chopsticks.

The TV was still playing programs related to Koshien, but no one was interested in watching them, and they all regarded it as a noisy background sound.

Director Kataoka looked at the depressed Qingdao people and said, "This is your celebration banquet."

When everyone in Seido looked at him, Director Kataoka continued: "Starting from winning the Tokyo Autumn Tournament, and then step by step to today, reaching the semi-finals of the High School Field Football Selection Tournament and becoming the semi-finals.

This is Qingdao’s best result in the past seven years! You are already very good, there is no need to blame yourself, I am proud of you!”

After Director Kataoka finished speaking, he picked up the drink on the table and raised it high: "Pick up the drink in front of you."

After everyone in Qingdao listened, they picked up the drinks in front of them.

"I toast to you, cheers!" Supervisor Kataoka said, raising his head and finishing the drink in the cup.

"Cheers." Everyone in Qingdao clinked their glasses with each other, and then drank the drinks in the glasses.

"You guys are delicious. When you return to school tomorrow, the principal will prepare a celebration banquet for you." After that, Director Kataoka put down the cup in his hand and left the dining room.



After having dinner and taking a bath in the bathroom, Yagami returned to his room.

Turning on the TV in the room, sitting on the bed and picking up the remote control, Yagami aimlessly switched channels to find his favorite TV programs.

After switching to all the TV stations, he switched back to the TV station that was broadcasting Qingdao's post-game interview. He threw away the remote control and lay down on the bed.

During the show, Dong Qingguo had tears in his eyes and said intermittently: "Everyone chose to entrust me with the responsibility of captain because of their trust... I really... want to win the ticket to the finals for everyone..."

Yagami adjusted his posture so that he could lie down better.

At this time, the scene in the program changed to an interview with Jinguji Kazuichi. He said with red eyes: "As the ace who leads the team to victory, I made a mistake by failing to suppress my opponent until the end when I should have."

The mistake I shouldn't have made was that I ruined the efforts of my teammates. I'm very sorry..."

Having said this, Jinguji bowed at 90 degrees to the camera: "I'm really, really sorry!"

Yagami sat up suddenly, covered his face with his hands, rubbed them vigorously, turned off the TV, and left the room.

Yagami went down to the first floor at night and saw someone practicing swinging a bat in the yard.

"Yuki..." Iori Yagami walked to the place where Yuki Tetsuya was swinging his bat, and when he saw the other person's red eyes looking over him, he didn't know what to say to him for a moment.

After Yuuki Tetsuya heard Iori Yagami calling him from behind, he stopped swinging, turned his head and looked at Iori Yagami, whose eyes were slightly red, and started swinging again.

The two of them just stood there for a while, one swinging the bat and watching the other swing.

After a long time, Yuki Tetsuya stopped swinging the bat, picked up the towel hanging around his neck and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said to Yagami Ye: "No matter how many points I lose in the future, I will win them back, Yagami."

Just throw the ball confidently and boldly."

Iori Yagami was stunned after hearing this, and then said helplessly: "Why do you come to comfort me? Isn't trying to become a stable starter in the team your most important thing at the moment?"

Yuuki Tetsuya looked at Iori Yagami and raised the bat again: "Actually, I don't think you need comfort. In our class, you are the one with the best personal mental state. I'm just stating that I will

The goal.".

"On defense, no matter how hard I try, I can't surpass the role of you and Chris. Then I will become the most powerful attacker in the team. No matter what kind of opponent I encounter in the future, I will work hard to overcome it."

them."

"Yuki, you're usually quiet, but I didn't expect you to be quite talkative." Yagami suddenly realized that he knew very little about his classmate Tetsuya Yuki.
