Chapter 53: The Prince Arrives!

Before the players from Osaka Kiryuu High School got on the bus and left, the managers of Seidou High School presented them with cakes made by themselves.

"Wow! So cute!"

Seeing the four-member management team of Seidou High School, these guys from Osaka Kiryuu High School, just like simps, their eyes lit up!

Looks can be deceiving, especially true with these Osaka Kiryuu players, they are very lively during the match. But their training in private is also very hard. Their training is not necessarily worse than Seidou's. Coupled with the implementation of military-like management, the team has never even seen a girl in the team.

Seeing the four managers standing in line, holding the cakes for the players of Osaka Kiryuu High School, Immediately made them jealous!

"Seidou is also great, I regret not coming to Seidou at the beginning."

"You guys are too happy to have four cute managers."

"Not like us…"

It's also very embarrassing for Haruno and a few to suddenly be regarded as cute.

"We made it ourselves, the taste might be…"

Takako blushed and said.

After all, this was a gift on behalf of Seidou.

"Yeah, you can also make cakes with your own hands, this is just too good."

"Ah, come on!"

"You guys who live in Tokyo."

Seeing all the envy, and jealousy of Osaka Kiryuu players, Seidou players' vanity was extremely satisfied, although they pretended to be annoyed.

"We will be back!"

Before leaving, Osaka Kiryuu players reluctantly waved to the managers of the Seidou team.

Let the players of Seidou not know whether to laugh at them or get angry with them.

"Go back to rest early. The players who will participate in the matches tomorrow should not practice more."

Watching Osaka Kiryuu's team leave, Kataoka finally warned and announced the training disbandment.

Tomorrow, it will be the three-school round-robin competition with Seidou, Inashiro, and Shuuhoku High School.

It's also a tradition!

If it weren't for tradition, Seidou and Inashiro would never have taken the initiative to find each other before the summer competition.

At a time like this, revealing a little more information to the other party is extremely dangerous.

"You have a text message!"

"You have a text message!"

Almost in no particular order, the phones of Sawamura and Miyuki rang at the same time.

Sawamura sat on the bench and deliberately avoided the large crowd.

Because Wakana has been helping him manage his fans on social media, the two texted each other almost every day.

They used to talk on the phone, but because Seidou's training was too tight, Sawamura didn't necessarily have time. In the dormitory at night, there is a threat of dangerous creatures 'AKA Jealous Senpais', so they can only resort to contacting by text message.

Turning on the phone, Sawamura frowned.

Unfamiliar number…

Sawamura's cell phone number is a very well-kept secret. In addition to Wakana, his other friends, family members, and Sano-sensei know. As far as the media is concerned not much of them knows. Even with Obayashi, Kobayashi, Miyamoto, and the others. Barely a dozen people…

The others were all friends from Seidou's side, and there was no need for them to send a text message to Sawamura.

'Who is this?'

Originally thought it was that kind of advertising junk text, Sawamura wanted to delete it. But somehow, he opened it!

-Hehehe~~~

It started with a smirk.

Then the text, very stylish, almost at a glance, Sawamura knew who the other party was.

-Sawamura-shonen, are you in Seidou? Are you? I will come to you for my revenge tomorrow. So wash your neck and wait for me. Also, I heard that you have a very good Fastball pitcher there. Has anyone been robbed of the main position? How fast is his ball? Is it faster than yours? Is it faster than mine? And what happened to your mobile phone? How can you not answer calls from strangers, Am I a stranger…

A series of questions, just like a child.

In addition, there is no signature at the end of the text.

But even without a signature, Sawamura knew who it was. Although he didn't have many contacts in this life, they were very good friends with each other before going back to the past. Especially during the time when they were in the Major leagues, the two people were close in age and from the same country and forged a good friendship.

In this life, after that game in middle school, they talked here and there, but they didn't get much in touch afterward. He doesn't know where did this guy got his cell phone number?

Sawamura chuckled unknowingly, and then conveniently saved the other party's number.

Narumiya Mei!

The same familiarity as the previous life, the same childishness.

-Are you going to play tomorrow, Narumiya-senpai?

Sawamura replied with a text message.

Within two seconds, the text message came back.

-How did you know it was me?

This question not only exposed his own identity but also explained one thing.

The previous text message did not have a name, and he really did it on purpose.

Still childish.

-I guessed!

Sawamura honestly replied.

-You kid, you're really sharp. You're not as slow as Kazuya. He obviously received my text message, but he didn't reply to me.

-It isn't easy for us to chat like this, why don't we call?

-Yes, then you call me.

-Eh? Why?

-Because I'm a Senpai, you idiot, I'm one year older than you.

-Hehe~

-Hehe what?

***

The two sent more than 40 text messages, and neither called the other. It's as if whoever calls the other first loses.

Even though Sawamura's mental age was in his early thirties, he was just as 'naive' as Narumiya.

Or, the same stubbornness!

In the process of gossiping with Narumiya Mei, Sawamura also learned a piece of news that surprised him.

In a practice match in Inashiro before, Narumiya met Nanami Haruka. One of Sawamura's rivals in middle school

From his smug tone when he mentioned it, he should have won.

Otherwise, Narumiya would not be so proud!

Very few of Nagano's rivals in the past came to Tokyo. Nevertheless, there are a lot of people who go to the Kanto districts and prefectures, but most stay in Nagano.

If Seidou really entered Koshien, Sawamura could meet some acquaintances.

He was a second in middle school when he became famous, and most of the players who played against him were currently second and first-year high school players.

If they are really talented, at a time like this, they have almost begun to emerge!

The next day was a three-school competition between Seidou, Shuuhoku, and Inashiro.

The first game is Seidou against Inashiro!

Because Shuuhoku is the second game, they will come later. But for three games in the morning, Inashiro came very early. Just after seven o'clock, they arrived at Seidou.

There is a neat queue, and the people of Inashiro walk together, naturally there is a kind of aura.

At the gate of Seidou High School, someone was waiting to greet them.

Deputy President Takashima Rei, and the Captain Yuuki Tetsuya.

Kataoka and Ota, as well as the players of Seidou, were waiting for them in the stadium.

On both sides of the school gate, two figures are standing next to the wall.
