Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Late Arrival

The mist in the early morning had yet to disperse, and shrouding the world was in a foggy atmosphere.

At this moment, there was a clamor from the baseball field of Seidou High School.

Today is the day when the freshmen of the baseball club officially join the team. All freshmen join the team one day in advance, get the team's uniforms and daily necessities, and take a night off. Then from the early morning of the next day, report to the team management.

Every time a new student formally joins the team, there is a self-introduction. All the new students stand in two rows and then introduce themselves in order from the first in the first row.

Opposite the freshman, stood the team's Superintendent, Kataoka Tesshin, as well as the second- and third-year seniors.

From this day on, they are all members of Seidou High School and teammates who fight side by side!

On the Senior's side, Masuko and Kuramochi yawned again and again.

"Is it okay not to wake him up?" Masuko hesitantly asked Kuramochi.

When they woke up this morning, Sawamura was still sound asleep.

Masuko originally wanted to wake Sawamura up, but Kuramochi stopped him.

"Yesterday he forced us to play games with him until two o'clock in the morning. He was going to oversleep himself, and it has nothing to do with us."

Speaking of which, Kuramochi was full of anger. Ever since he saw Sawamura yesterday, his good mood has been deflated. Now that he can finally see Sawamura mess up, why won't he gloat at Sawamura's trouble?

Masuko remembered Sawamura's irritating appearance two years ago when he first visited the school for the first time, so he didn't say anything.

At the same time, Sawamura had just woken up.

"Yeah, I'm late again!"

Looking at his watch, Sawamura sighed helplessly.

In the highly disciplined Seidou High School baseball club, Sawamura was late on his first day on the team, and he could imagine how miserable it would end for him.

He set the alarm clock last night, but he was so sleepy that he didn't even wake him up.

Sawamura was excited when he saw his old friend Kuramochi from his previous life and played until late at night. He originally thought that he had set an alarm clock and had the habit of getting up early anyway, so he would be able to get up the next day.

Moreover, the psychologist in Sawamura's previous Life Pro team also said that people generally don't sleep too dead in unfamiliar environments.

But it just so happened that Sawamura was not unaccustomed here, nor did he feel repulsive or unfamiliar. He slept very soundly and sweetly here. In addition to his biological clock, it was a little later than Seidou's wake-up time. Kuramochi and Masuko can get up because of their long-term early rise and their biological clocks. Otherwise, they wouldn't stay awake with Sawamura until two o'clock in the middle of the night.

Checked, the alarm clock has been turned off.

Sawamura made the same mistake again and was late on the first day of joining the team.

"Kuramochi you little sh*t!"

He cursed angrily, and when Sawamura changed his clothes and rushed to the training ground, he happened to see Miyuki Kazuya, who was suffering from the same situation as him.

"Isn't this our genius Catcher? Why are you late?"

"It's all my fault for watching the DVD yesterday. I watched it until too late."

Miyuki replied subconsciously before turning around to see Sawamura, and then his pupils suddenly widened.

"It's you?"

Sawamura smiled and nodded: "Yes, partner, it's me."

"Man, you deserve to be the big star. Even on the first day of joining the team, you are the last to enter the field." Miyuki said gloatingly.

Sawamura's face sank immediately.

How can he not know that this guy was trying to set him up? this guy, Miyuki, is still as hateful as ever.

"Yeah, what a pity! I heard that you have been specially approved to train with the First string, and I didn't expect to be late on the first day of joining the team. If you don't do anything about it, I am afraid that you won't be allowed to train with the First string. It's a pity that you won't be able to catch up with the Spring Competition with the First String."

Miyuki's words were very sincere, and Sawamura sincerely wanted to punch him.

Sawamura was also at Seidou in his previous life. He knew too well how high the treatment he was getting by training with the first string as soon as he entered the team!

Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and he was just letting it go in vain, Sawamura wanted to find a piece of tofu and choke himself to death. Of course, before killing himself, he must strangle the vicious Miyuki bastard to death.

Seeing Sawamura's murderous look, Miyuki subconsciously shrank his neck.

'This guy is so unfriendly, he dares to glare at the Senpai!'

"Don't worry, don't worry. For the sake of your previous partnership, I'll give you a way out."

'Oh~'

Sawamura looked at Miyuki with a deep look and said nothing.

"Look!" Following Miyuki's finger, the new member's self-introduction happened to be the second-to-last in the first row, and then it was the last one, Kanemaru's turn.

"What?"

Sawamura asked curiously.

"After seeing that there is no one in the first row to introduce the last person, the second row has to start the introduction from the first one. Then, everyone's attention will be focused on the first person in the second row. No one will be looking at the last position in the second row, which means it is the blind spot in everyone's line of sight. When everyone turns their heads, you sneak past like a ninja and then stand in the last position of the second row. Look, everything is perfect!"

Sawamura looked at Miyuki coldly: "You won't fool me, will you? If this is discovered, it will be worse than being late, right?"

"Rest assured, rest assured, I was successful last year! Moreover, with your strength, the coach will not be willing to put you in the second string in the summer competition no matter what. At most, you will lose your qualifications for the spring competition, anyway. If you are not going to lose much, it is better to try."

"But?"

"No buts, trust me, mate."

At this time, Miyuki's face was full of sincerity, which will make naïve people trust him.

"Okay, I'll trust you again."

Sawamura's face became solemn.

He turned to watch what was happening on the field.

"From Matsukata club, Kanemaru Shinji, I hope to be the third baseman…"

After Kanemaru finished his introduction, it was Toujou's turn, who was the first in the second row, to introduce himself. Toujou just opened his mouth, and everyone's eyes were focused on Toujou.

Taking advantage of the chance that everyone's eyes were away, Sawamura jumped up, took small steps, and rushed towards the large team.

Behind him, a smile flashed on Miyuki's face.

"Haha so easy!"

"Hey! That…"

Miyuki opened his mouth and was about to sneak back into the team by reporting on Sawamura. he saw Sawamura, who was running towards the main unit, pass over the students who had introduced themselves and went straight to Coach Kataoka.

"Sorry, I'm late!!"

Kataoka's face with sunglasses looks like a sculpture, without an expression.

He recognized Sawamura and wasn't sure what he should do with Sawamura right now. Sawamura couldn't be late on the first day, so he instead decided that Sawamura wouldn't train with the First string.

Then Sawamura smirked and pointed at Miyuki who was hiding in the corner: "The Senpai there was late and wanted to sneak in!!"
