"The handsome young man kept a clean sheet in his first match!"

In the office of Ebisu Seishan Office, Tanakura put down the newspaper in his hand with a proud smile on his face.

"Dong dong dong!"

"Excuse me...can I come in?"

"Hi!"

"Mr. Takura, these are the several business inquiries the promotion department has received recently, all from Arata Furuta!"

"Ah...it's not going to be another field day activity or something like that!"

"Not this time. There is a consulting agency that wants Arata to be their promotion ambassador. In addition..."Asahi Shimbun" also wants to use Arata's image in this year's Koshien Competition! There are also domestic sporting goods.

Manufacturer…”

“They are all powerful partners!”

"Yes! The consulting agency is interested in the news topic of the uniformed kidnappers of the New Taipei mechanism. The Asahi Shimbun wants to use the popularity of the New Taipei to promote the player rights conference. As for the sports goods manufacturer, it is still in a wait-and-see mode for the time being.

, if Arata can reach the Koshien finals, I think there is still hope!"

"Ah... We still need to establish a good relationship with the Asahi Shimbun, plus the consulting company, just these two! I don't want to arrange too complicated work for Arata for the time being."

"I see!"

…

The news that Chiyoda Academy kept a clean sheet in its first match hit the media the next day. Even the morning news made relevant reports. However, although it is indeed not easy to keep an opponent clean, just a regional competition will not attract the attention of the media.

This news has attracted so much attention, mainly because the protagonist is Arata Furuta, and he threw an excellent pitch of 155!

However, this one-sided victory did not allow everyone to be intoxicated for too long, and the next game was about to follow.

"It's settled, the next opponent is the private Narui High School, the winner of last year's Musashino Tournament!"

"Ah, the second game is the last champion!"

"No way, Ah Cai! Our luck is too bad!"

"Don't just say depressing words! We have to have confidence in ourselves. In the last game, we kept a clean sheet against our opponents!"

"But how can Musashino High School compete with Narui High School? They are not even the same level of opponents! Narui High School is a frequent visitor to the metropolitan tournament!"

…

While everyone was talking, Ushijima came to the side of the court carrying a large box. Behind him was Ushijima-senpai's girlfriend Kana.

"Thank you for your hard work, I brought some condolences to relieve the heat!"

"Hey! Nani!"

"It's tomato pudding!"

Hearing Ushijima-senpai's words, Kana smiled sheepishly. It was really a pity to say that although Ushijima-senpai was called a supervisor by everyone, Chiyoda High School did not hire him, and Ushijima did not receive any compensation.

Even so, Sang still tried his best to help everyone, and even often brought some consolation gifts to everyone from his own pocket.

"Supervisor! Our opponent in the next match will be Cheng Ying! Tell us what we should do!"

"Narui Sakura? Do you think they can hit Arata's ball?"

"this……"

"To be honest, Acai! I think you all may be overestimating your opponents. Chiyoda Club has the best pitcher this year. If the opponent cannot break your strong defensive ability, how can you win? So,

In the next game, please feel free to attack!"

Ushijima-senpai's words had some effect, at least Ono-kun still believed in him. During this time, due to the Players Rights Conference, even the school specially adjusted the class time so that everyone can enjoy this summer.

Two days later, when the second game of the Musashino Tournament arrived, the number of support groups and reporters who came to watch the game was obviously more than last time. Even Sanji was pulled over by Majiang.

"Ryouko!"

"Ah...big stars...you are really not afraid of being discovered!"

"What are you afraid of! Everyone is here to watch Arata pitch today! Come on, Chiyoda!"

"If Ah Cai knew that her field team has famous people like you coming to support her, I don't know how happy she would be!"

"Acai?"

"Ah, she's the manager of the field team, you see she's right in front!"

"Oh...does she have a good relationship with Arata?"

"Of course, they have to go home together after training every day!"

"Hey, that's the feeling of childhood sweethearts, isn't it! Ma-chan!"

As soon as Sanji said this, Majiang immediately looked at him with a bad expression. At this point, Sanji immediately shut up.

When the game started, Chiyoda Gakuin, who attacked first, did not score any points. After the three batters were out one by one, the offense and defense switched, and Arata quickly stepped onto the pitcher's mound.

"Arata... Arata Furuta! Come on!"

With a burst of cheers from the sidelines, Arata slowly leaned down, and the cheering group in the first base area began to sing the school song, trying to create pressure on Arata. However, at this moment, Arata got

Instructions from Ono-kun.

"Curveball!"

"Curveball?"

Arata raised his head in surprise, but saw Ono nodding to him seriously.

It is indeed a curveball! Although Arata has been practicing curveball day and night during this period, he has not really mastered it yet, and the game is the best opportunity to test his practice.

"Let Arata get used to throwing curveballs during games."

This is what Ushijima told Ono before taking the field. If Chiyoda wants to go further, the pitcher cannot have only one weapon, even if this weapon has been used to the best.

After Arata confirmed Ono's order, he exhaled silently, then adjusted his hand holding the ball behind his back, then stepped forward and threw the ball.

"Crack!"

There was just a crisp metal collision sound, and Arata's ball was easily knocked out by the opponent. Immediately afterwards, the batter from Narui High School dropped the bat and ran towards first base quickly.

"Xiaomu! Don't let it slip!"

Just when everyone thought that this ball was going to put Naiying High School on base successfully, outfielder Kogi jumped high and caught the flying wild ball. This also meant that the batter who just hit the hit was out.

"out!"

"Ah! Just now...it really shocked me!"

"It doesn't matter, my father often did this when he was coaching the team. Occasionally, he would let the pitcher choose a pitching method that he was not very good at. The purpose was to remind everyone to cheer up!"

After Liangzi heard Majiang's explanation, he felt relieved. As there was a round of applause from Naiying's support area, the second batter also began to walk onto the batter's box.

"Strikeout!"

After receiving the instruction, Arata immediately became full of energy and then threw a straight shot that shocked everyone.

"160!"

"160 kilometers per hour!"

Seeing the ball speed displayed on the scoreboard, the audience burst into enthusiastic cheers. Even the supervisor of the Chengying team couldn't help but applaud when he saw the ball.

"Come, everyone, come with me!"

"Strike out! Strike out! Strike out!"
Chapter completed!
