81. Teenagers' halftime
During the lunch break, Toru Watanabe took the initiative to leave the music classroom. He originally planned to go to the Human Observation Department and take a nap on the sofa, but it turned out that Rin Kiyono was there to listen carefully to the performance of a famous wind school.
Thinking that it was impolite to sleep in front of hard-working people, he simply went to the playground to find Osamu Kunii.
Even though he is only a preliminary member, this guy is also working hard for the Koshien qualifiers in July.
"Watanabe? You're here just in time, hurry up!"
Before Toru Watanabe could react, Osamu Kunii handed him a baseball glove and a ball.
"do what?"
"Please come and be a pitcher and train with me." Osamu Kunii said, already turning and walking towards the batting area.
"..."
After being dismissed by his friend to help with training, Toru Watanabe couldn't say that he was here for a lunch break.
Ah, if I had known earlier I wouldn't have come, I would have just gone back to the classroom and slept.
He turned around, found the pitcher's mound, walked over without energy, and put on a baseball glove that was a decent size.
"Come on! Dyna, throw your last ball!" Osamu Kunii, who was in a striking stance, shouted to Toru Watanabe.
"I'm sorry, I'm a card player, not Ultraman."
Because the distance between the batting area and the pitching area is 18.44 meters, what Toru Watanabe subconsciously said in a normal voice was not conveyed.
But it doesn't matter, it's up to him, Toru Watanabe, to defend the face that Kamenlai fights with.
"The law of victory has been determined!" Toru Watanabe shouted loudly this time.
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
Toru Watanabe took advantage of Osamu Kunii's moment of confusion and raised his arms to make a shot, but was beaten out easily by the opponent.
"The ball speed is too slow!" Osamu Kunii shouted.
Watanabe Toru rubbed his arm that felt a little uncomfortable after exerting all his strength, and reflected on himself: Sure enough, the Soki who said the Law of Victory is unreliable. After all, this guy is famous for being weak.
Think about it again, what other lines are there... Watanabe Toru reached out and took out a new ball from the basket.
"I! Come on!" Toru Watanabe threw the ball in a state of climax as soon as he came up.
"Bang--"
The metal bat hit the ball, making a crisp impact, and then the ball shot straight into the blue summer sky.
"Without Dyna, there is absolutely no way we can win! Give up and become the light with me!" Osamu Kunii waved the bat proudly.
"Burn your life!"
"Bang--"
"Show Time!"
"Bang--"
"Die!"
"There is no such line at all! Stop fishing in troubled waters!"
"Shut up!"
"False! You are not a qualified card player! Let me punish you! Dedicate yourself to the cause of justice!" Osamu Kunii said this and swung the bat angrily with all his strength.
A beautiful home run was born.
——————
In the music classroom, several girls were chatting about boring topics by the window.
"Did you know? Tamako from the club next door is dating Mochizo!"
"Bake Cang? Who are you talking about?"
"It's that handsome guy with yellow hair in Class Three of Grade Three! The one who secretly gets earrings and is always filming videos with a camera! He's so beautiful, you know, right? He asked you to take a short video."
"Oh, he. Although he looks good, his personality is not my cup of tea at all."
"Eh? You're not from the Appearance Association?"
"shallow."
Tamamo Haomi replied with feigned disdain, causing everyone to burst into meaningless laughter.
"That's great. I want a boyfriend too...ah, look!"
Everyone followed their gaze and saw that under the June noon sun, girls would never leave the indoor temperature unprepared. There were two boys hitting baseballs on the baseball field.
The people in the batter's box were shouting something loudly towards the pitcher's box, and then it was obvious that the pitcher took advantage of him and swung his arm to throw the ball.
Through the window, slightly distorted light shines on the pitcher.
Because of the large swing of his arms, the straight white shirt squeezed out wrinkles, and his handsome face shone brightly, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Suddenly, perhaps because of the heat, or because it was easier to exert force, the pitcher boldly unbuttoned three buttons on the collar.
The collarbone and white chest were all exposed.
The girls looked at each other, feeling a little out of breath for some reason. After regaining consciousness and looking at each other, they all lowered their eyes in embarrassment.
"Watanabe-san is so handsome!"
"Hey, you don't like him, do you? He has a girlfriend, and she's a young lady."
"There is no such thing, I just appreciate his good looks!"
"Oh? Really? Why did you move your eyes?"
"...If Watanabe breaks up with Kujo-san and takes the initiative to confess to me, it is not impossible to forcefully date him."
"How dare you say that, you actually want the other party to confess to you!"
The girls laughed again. This time Tamamo was so beautiful that she did not laugh. She looked at Toru Watanabe on the playground and unconsciously stroked the trombone in her arms.
"But I discovered a secret. Watanabe might be secretly making love to the eldest lady behind Kujo's back."
Miss is the sarcastic name given to Rin Kiyono by the music club.
"Isn't it possible?"
"How is it impossible? In the past two days, I have seen the two of them walking together several times, even going to the toilet together! Do you believe it? Moreover, Watanabe even sent the eldest lady home yesterday!"
"Isn't that the case of two people?"
"It's too bad. Sure enough, the handsome guy doesn't have any good things. Isn't he so beautiful?"
"I don't know if he is a handsome guy or not, but Toru Watanabe is definitely a scumbag."
"Wow! This is the first time I see Haomei targeting one person like this!"
"This is also the first time I have heard Haomei say that about a boy. However, even though he is a scumbag, if he is willing to change his ways and promise to only be nice to me in the future, it is not impossible to date him."
"Eh~~~?"
"Disgusting! Handsome guy is justice!"
"It's not like you only care about other people's bodies. It's really a pornographic statement!"
The girls laughed again.
The one-hour lunch break passed quickly. Watanabe Toru smelled of sweat and was too embarrassed to return to the oboe & bassoon section, so he went to the activity classroom of the Human Observation Department.
The air-conditioning in the room instantly revived him.
Rin Kiyono was listening to the music intently when he suddenly smelled the smell of sweat and frowned slightly.
She took off one of her earphones and looked at Toru Watanabe up and down: "Running?"
Watanabe Toru didn't want to speak, so he waved his hand feebly: "Baseball."
"If your hands are sore the next day, it's entirely your own fault. I won't allow you to take time off to stop training."
"It's really heartless. But don't worry, I usually insist on exercising. This amount of exercise is not a problem at all."
"That's good." Qingye Rin put on the headphones again and was immersed in the world of music.
Watanabe Toru rested for a while and took grapes from the refrigerator to eat.
While eating, he stared blankly at the sky outside the window, and suddenly tapped the table. Qingye Rin was startled, and his shoulders shook.
"What are you doing?" There was a trace of anger hidden in her tone.
Watanabe Toru swallowed the grapes: "I'm going to tell you why I keep losing. It turns out that I didn't shout 'transformation' at the beginning!"
Qingye Rin looked confused.
"That's it...forget it, I'll show you."
Watanabe Toru stood up, wrapped a circle around his small waist, and took out his mobile phone.
"Remember, the transformation password is 555. If you press it to 5821, it will summon a motorcycle."
"I have no dreams, but I can protect my dreams and transform!"
Qingye Rin looked at him without any fluctuation in his eyes.
Chapter completed!
