In Takanari Mitsuru's opinion, Lei Hongguang, a pretty boy who has nothing good to offer except for his good looks, will definitely be beaten by his baseball skills.
As long as he shows his superb ball skills, he will definitely be able to convince Qi Weiqian and the others, and make them leave Lei Hongguang, the silver spear and candle head, and join his arms.
In order to suppress Lei Hongguang, Gao Liguang specially called the baseball team members, coaches and others to watch the game, intending to make Lei Hongguang lose miserably and completely humiliate him.
"Takashi-kun, come on!"
"Takanari-kun, please don't embarrass our baseball club!"
Cheers came from the audience seats nearby.
These are the shouts from the baseball team members.
"Come on Lei Hongjun!"
"Lei Hongjun, defeat this so-called ace of the baseball club!"
"We sisters all believe in you!"
Several clear female voices broke through the sound of people cheering for Mitsuru Takanari.
These sweet female voices like orioles cheering for Lei Hongguang were heard.
Takanari Hikaru glanced at the figures of Murasakimiya Natsuka and Qiwei Akane and the other five girls in the stands, and couldn't help feeling jealous.
And it's not just Takanari Hikaru.
The other members of the baseball club present were also jealous.
When these members and coaches of the baseball club were first called over by Mitsuru Takanari, they scoffed at Mitsuru Takanari's proposal for a baseball competition.
I think Takanari Hikaru is bullying people. After all, he is a professional baseball player. How can he be compared with a non-professional like Lei Hongguang who has never been heard of?
It's not a game between two high-level professional baseball players. It would be a waste of their time to invite them to come and watch the game.
They only came here to give face to Takanari Hikaru, the ace of the baseball team.
But when he came over, he saw five beautiful girls including Qiwei Qian, Hu Taoban Liuli and others surrounding Lei Hongguang.
The people in the baseball club understood it instantly.
Why did Takanari Hikaru, the ace of the baseball team, propose to compete in baseball with Lei Hongguang?
This guy Takanari Hikaru is definitely jealous!
Because it’s more than just Hikaru Takanari.
These boys in the baseball team, even the coach.
When seeing Lei Hongguang surrounded by five charming and beautiful girls, everyone couldn't help but feel jealous!
After all, Akane Nanao was the former manager of the baseball club and was originally the goddess of the baseball club.
At that time, countless people confessed their love to Qiwei Qian, but they were all rejected.
As a result, the former goddess of the baseball club became Lei Hongguang's girlfriend.
And that would be fine, too. Beside Lei Hongguang, there are four beautiful girls whose looks and figures can rival those of Qiwei Qian!
Any one of these five girls can be called the goddess in their minds!
The kind of person I would pursue even if there was a chance.
As a result, Lei Hongguang had five, five of them around him!
He is alone, can he bear it? Damn it!
Seeing Qi Weiqian and the other five girls cheering loudly for Lei Hongguang, the members of the baseball team and even the coach were gritting their teeth in anger.
In order to suppress the arrogance of Lei Hongguang, the "pretty boy", they all cheered for Gao Liguang loudly, each of them shouting heart-wrenchingly.
Even though they thought that Takanari Hikaru, as the ace of the baseball team, was 100% sure to beat Lei Hongguang, and it didn't matter whether he cheered or not, they still couldn't help shouting.
At the baseball field at this time.
Lei Hongguang and Takanari Mitsuru have already stood still.
It had been agreed before that Lei Hongguang would be the pitcher.
Lei Hongguang was also standing in the pitcher's position at this time, looking at Takahara Hikaru who was wearing a helmet and holding a baseball bat, as well as the catcher behind him.
"Are you ready?" Lei Hongguang asked casually.
"Okay!" Takanari Hikaru agreed confidently.
As the two had a brief conversation, the cheers from the crowd slowly stopped and the baseball field fell silent.
"Takanari-kun, you should be able to hit a home run right away..."
Tachibana Yui, her childhood sweetheart, was looking at Lei Hongguang and Takanari Mitsuru on the field and hesitated for a moment.
Not only Yui Tachibana thought so, but the other members and coaches of the baseball team also thought so.
Because pitching a baseball is not as simple as just throwing the ball.
As a baseball pitcher, you need to increase your pitching speed and find a good angle as quickly as possible to avoid being hit by the opponent's batter.
Professional baseball pitchers have to undergo long-term training, and the balls they throw must be fast and accurate. Otherwise, for trained batsmen, every time they hit the ball, it will be a hit!
Lei Hongguang looked like an ordinary male high school student, not someone who could play baseball, and their baseball club had never heard of such a person before.
Therefore, Yui Tachibana and the people in the baseball team naturally thought that the ball thrown by Lei Hongguang could be easily hit by Takanari Mitsuru and complete a home run.
At this time, Mitsuru Takanari, who was holding the bat tightly, naturally had the same idea as Yui Tachibana and everyone else in the baseball team.
As the ace of the baseball team, he was confident that he could handle Lei Hongguang's pitching.
I'm going to hit a few home runs first, shock everyone, and do something cool.
Looking at Takanari Hikaru who nodded confidently at him, Lei Hongguang also smiled.
Then, without any hesitation, he gently threw the baseball in his hand out.
'Shuh! '
The moment he saw Lei Hongguang throwing the ball, Gao Liguang swung the baseball bat in his hand confidently.
But the crisp hitting sound he imagined did not come.
Instead, there is only the feeling of being powerless while waving in the air.
"Um???"
Looking at his bat swing in vain and the baseball that had now fallen into the hands of the catcher behind him, Mitsuru Takanari could not help but be stunned.
At this time, the other members of the baseball club in the stands were also stunned.
What's happening here?
The ball that Lei Hongguang just threw didn't seem fast to them.
How could Hikaru Takanari, the ace of the baseball team, miss the target?
Was it because I underestimated the enemy that I made the mistake?
Yui Tachibana and the other members of the baseball club were completely puzzled.
But if we were to say who is the most confused, it would have to be Hikaru Takanari himself.
Takanari Hikaru just saw the ball thrown by Lei Hongguang, and it seemed to be quite slow.
For a professional baseball pitcher, a pitching distance of more than 100 kilometers is barely considered passing.
As for the ball that Lei Hongguang just threw, Gao Liguang felt that the speed was only about 50 to 60 kilometers per hour, which was definitely slow for their professional batsmen.
Normally, he would be able to react easily and hit the ball accurately, easily completing a home run.
But what puzzled Mitsuru Takanari was that when he was swinging the stick with absolute certainty and thought he would hit the ball that Lei Hongguang had just thrown, he suddenly sped up and just missed it.
Takanari Hikaru is really stupid.
"Takahanari-kun?" Looking at Takanari Mitsuru who was in a daze over there, Lei Hongguang called out with a smile.
"Ah! I'm sorry, Lei Hongjun's pitching is very professional, it's really surprising." After hearing Lei Hongguang's voice, Takanari Mitsuru came back to his senses and hurriedly said to Lei Hongguang.
Although he was praising Lei Hongguang, Gao Liguang's face was already a little gloomy.
"I was just careless just now. After all, it was my first time facing an amateur like this. I'm a little unaccustomed to it. I usually face too many professional masters. This time, I was careless when facing Lei Hongguang, an amateur. I didn't hit him. It's not a big problem!"
'Next I'll hit a home run and hit two home runs!'
Thinking of Lei Hongguang's slow pitching speed, confidence returned to Takanari's eyes.
Seeing that Takanari Hikaru over there was full of confidence again.
Lei Hongguang smiled slightly, made a throwing motion, and threw the baseball in his hand out again with ease.
'Shuh! '
Mitsuru Takanari swung the bat again, but this time the bat missed the target again.
'Snapped! '
The dull sound of a baseball being hit hard against a baseball glove could be heard.
Mitsuru Takanari stared at the baseball in the catcher's glove behind him with wide eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Okay... so fast!"
Lei Hongguang's pitching speed was so fast this time!
Mitsuru Takanari was stunned.
Originally, the speed of 50 to 60 kilometers per hour when Lei Hongguang first pitched the ball had already made him feel that Lei Hongguang really could not play baseball or pitch, and he just missed the ball because he was careless.
But Lei Hongguang's second pitch was extremely fast.
Takanari Mitsuru could no longer guess the exact speed of Lei Hongguang's pitch. He just swung the bat subconsciously, and it missed.
It can be said that he didn't even have time to react before the baseball flew past!
Seeing the second ball thrown by Lei Hongguang, the baseball team members and coaches in the stands couldn't help but look surprised.
"This... the ball that was just thrown was so fast! I couldn't see it clearly!"
"Is this guy called Lei Hongguang? He's so awesome!"
"I can barely see it clearly from this angle, the ball must be going at least 150 kilometers per hour, right?!"
