Didn’t you say you were just using me as a substitute?

Now Ayanokouji Kiyotaka is standing on first base. Normally, if he wants to score 1 point, he can only advance one base at a time, which means that the next three players to come on the field must hit the ball.

Of course, if you hit a home run like Rokusuke Koharaji, you can score directly.

Just as Gaoyuanji Rokusuke just hit a home run, he successfully sent Ryuen Sho and Nanyun Masa standing on first and second base, including him, to home base, so it was counted as three points.

"Besides you, Kitahara-san, I still have a trump card that I haven't played yet."

Beiyuan Zun was stunned when he heard this.

Are there any cards left to be revealed?

Why didn't he know?

*

"Oh, what a surprise. The highly developed fifth batter hit a bunt, a ground ball. Can he reach base safely?"

"Damn it!"

Taoya cursed, then rushed over, picked up the ball on the ground, turned around and threw it at the second baseman.

If Aoba's second baseman Haruki Yuto could catch the ball or tag out Kiyotaka Ayanokouji before he reaches second base, then Kiyotaka Ayanokouji would be eliminated.

On the contrary, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka reached base safely.

Almost at the same time, the moment the ball landed in Haruki Yuto's glove, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka stepped onto second base.

Because it was almost impossible to judge with the naked eye, the referee watched the replay.

Inside the stadium, the big screen was broadcasting the game in real time.

In the slow-motion replay, everyone saw that it was Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who stepped on the base first with the shoulder of his shoe.

The umpire declared the bases loaded.

At the same time, Horikita Manabu also reached first base safely.

"There are runners on first and second base. Aoba's situation is precarious now."

The camera turned to the bullpen, where Kitahara Takashi had a sullen face, while Kensuke Amaya kept glancing down at his watch, like a worker waiting to get off work as soon as the time came.

"Has he not been bribed by the other side?"

"After the competition is over, I will definitely write a letter of denunciation to Qingye and ask them to investigate this brat thoroughly!"

Some people suspect that Kensuke Amatani benefited from the high level of training.

"He was embarrassed by my Giegie in the last game, so he deliberately pushed his brother to the bench."

"Wait, I'll write a short essay for you online when I get back."

The fairies who like Kitahara Takashi started conspiracy theories and decided to pick up their keyboards, put him online, and ruin Kensuke Amatani's reputation.

“What a waste of money!”

"unlucky!"

"gone."

Some people felt there was no need to watch any further and simply stood up and prepared to leave.

Many people have left in real life, and there are even fewer people online.

Backstage staff discovered that the number of online users, which originally numbered over five million, has now dropped to over three million.

Judging from this trend, it seems that it can continue to fall.

"Contact Qingye and have them send Beiyuan Zun as soon as possible!"

If the Koshien organizers had Kensuke Amatani's contact information, they would really like to call him.

If you don't go to Kitahara no Tsutomu, they will lose real money.

How is this any different from taking their lives?

Who do you think these people are targeting?

"Nice hit!"

The male commentator on the scene sounded excited.

"High-Level Training's fourth batter, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, rushed straight back to home plate. Congratulations to High-Level Training for another run!"

Under the desperate gaze of Aoba students and supporters, the total score of Gaokou Cultivation went from 10 to 11.

What is despairing is that the highly cultivated offensive round is not over yet.

"Next up is Koukou Ikusei's eighth baton, Katsuragi Kohei."

Kōhei Katsuragi came on the field with his bat, and was easily struck out by Kaname Momotani.

Don't think he is strong just because he is bald and big.

He is actually better at using his brain than sports.

"Looks like I have to go on stage early."

Beiyuan Zun said coldly.

If you want to swap positions, you must eliminate three batters.

So far, Momotani has only eliminated Katsuragi Kohei.

The next person to come on stage is Ken Sudo.

Even if he could eliminate Ken Sudo, the person who would come on stage after Ken Sudo was Masaru Nagumo, the first batter.

That’s right, it’s Nan Yunya’s turn again.

If they want Kohei Katsuragi to play again, Koto Ikusei needs to score at least another 7 points.

"..."

Kensuke Amatani didn't say anything else, which was considered as his tacit agreement that Kitahara Takashi was going to play.

Kitahara Takashi was just about to move his butt off the chair when suddenly, Amatani Kensuke stood up from the ground and said with delight, "Here I am."

Kitahara Takashi: "?"

Kensuke Amatani gestured to the referee to make a substitution and simply said, "Kitahara, take off your clothes."

"what?"

Kitahara Takashi was a little suspicious that Kensuke Amatani had gone crazy.

"Its real owner has arrived."

Kensuke Amatani pointed at a place and Takashi Kitahara looked there.

He found that the team manager, who had left at some point, appeared at the entrance of the passage with someone.

When he saw who was coming, Beiyuan Zun's pupils shrank slightly.

"Oh, Coach Aoba has requested a substitution, and the game is suspended. Is Kitahara going to play?"

Upon hearing this, the audience who had already walked to the gate immediately ran back.

Under the expectant gaze of more than 60,000 people, Kitahara Takashi stood up from his chair, and cheers immediately broke out at the scene.

Just when everyone thought that Kitahara Takashi was about to take the court, Kitahara Takashi took off his jersey and handed it to someone.

The cheers at the scene disappeared in an instant.

"How did you come?"

Kitahara Takashi took off his No. 7 jersey in surprise and handed it to Ohtani Shota.

He really didn't expect that Shota Ohtani would appear here.

"How can you be the only one who can take the spotlight?"

Shota Ohtani smiled as he put on his jersey.

"Are you feeling well?"

Kitahara Takashi looked him up and down.

He even made a special call to Tanaka Kota last time, as he obviously shouldn't have been discharged from the hospital so soon.

"No."

Otani Shouta didn't want to lie to Kitahara Takashi, so he said honestly, "I ran away from the hospital on my own."

"Why do you do this?"

Kitahara Tsutomu frowned, his expression not looking very good.

"You think I can't win because my right arm is injured, right?"

As he spoke, Kitahara Tsun raised his left hand: "Even if I only use my left hand, I can still kill them."

"no?"

Otani Shota shook his head slightly, then looked directly at Kitahara Takashi: "I just feel that I don't want you to carry my dream alone."

Otani Shouta extended his right fist towards Kitahara Takashi: "Kitahara, let's join forces."

At this moment, the male commentator's voice came: "Oh, Gaodu Yucheng has also chosen to make a substitution."

"It's just that I don't understand this substitution."

"The Gaoyuansi player was clearly in great form, so why did he choose to leave the court at this time?"

*

"Gaoyuan Temple, what are you doing?"

"The situation is obviously favorable for us, why do you want to leave?"

Sudo Ken walked up to Rokusuke Kaharadera angrily with a bad tone, as if he was ready to fight if they had a disagreement.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka raised his hand to block him.

"I don't want to fight anymore."

Gaoyuanji Rokusuke smiled brightly and took out a small mirror to fix his hair.

He originally came here for Beiyuan Zun.

Now that Kitahara Takashi's jersey has been given to someone else, it's obvious that he has no intention of playing, and he feels there's no need for him to stay on the court.

"You're saying you don't want to fight now? Then why did you agree to it in the first place?"

"You damn guy, don't you have any sense of collective honor?"

"No."

Gaoyuanji Rokusuke showed a pair of sparkling white teeth and gave a thumbs up.

"You damn guy!"

Sudo Ken raised his hand to punch Gaoyuanji Rokusuke, but was stopped by Ayanokouji who was prepared.

*

'coming. ’

Kitahara Takashi and Amatani Kensuke looked at each other, and a smile appeared on their faces.

They finally waited until Gaoyuanji Rokusuke was killed.

The fate of Rokusuke Kogenji was not accidental, but inevitable.

While sleeping in the same bed with Ye Yingtong in his arms, the two of them chatted at night and talked about him.

Through the narration of Yozakura Hitomi, Kitahara Takashi learned about the person named Gaoyuanji Rokusuke.

Gaoyuanji Rokusuke is the only son of the Koenji chaebol. He has first-class talents in all aspects, but he is too arrogant.

On weekdays in class, he does whatever he wants, oblivious to others, and disdains to form cliques with classmates. He often loses points for his casual behavior. He doesn't even care about the class. How could such a person care about things like school honor?

If it weren't for me, he wouldn't be here at all.

I will go on stage in the beginning, mainly to motivate myself to go on stage.

After he was sure that he would not play, he would not play anymore.
