章 418: Missed Chance (2)

Hiroki's eyes widened in shock. He slowed down his run and eventually stood in place, staring at the guy in the outfield.

"Tch. I missed a good opportunity." He muttered in annoyance before heading off the field.

"Out! 3 outs, changeover."

"Argh so close!"

The Japanese players called out, believing it was just unlucky. Yet Daichi and Ken sent him a frown, as if they were admonishing him for something.

Hiroki lowered his head, as if admitting his wrongdoing.

"S-Sorry." He said a little timidly.

Ken let out a sigh before patting him on the back, "Just be careful next time."

Daichi shook his head, but echoed Ken's sentiments.

Riku and Masayuki happened to catch the entire interaction, which left them feeling confused. They looked at each other, as if trying to understand what they just witnessed.

Yet neither knew anything.
