I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 509

"..."

Ogasawara Riko was a little surprised and surprised. She turned back and looked at Li Yan.

Such thoughts are simply remarks that could only be heard in the 18th century. Nowadays in Europe, the United States and Japan, such remarks are generally regarded as fools, although in fact there are not a few people who adhere to this wish and principle...

Others don't know how to choose, but her thinking is similar to that of people in rural Japan and the eighteenth century.

"Li, I hope... you can always stick to this rule."

Ogasawara Renko was silent for a while, and then said to Li Yan.

…

While chatting, the two slowly and leisurely arrived at a river in the middle of a residential area.

At this moment, the river had already been frozen by the December winter. On a riverside grassland piled with heavy snow, Ogasawara Rinko used this place as the final venue for baseball.

A young man, a girl in Gothic clothes, was walking by the river. It was a bit strange. Soon, when a woman passed by with a child, the child happily pointed at Riko Ogasawara and shouted: "Mom, hurry up." Look, it’s a magical girl!”

"Don't talk nonsense, my brother and sister are filming..."

The mother quickly corrected her in a low voice.

"Forehead……"

Li Yan was silent. When this mother said this, it was indeed a bit like being in a live-action animation scene.

"The rules this time are that I will throw the ball. If you hit it, you will win." Ogasawara Riko's expression became cold, and she looked at him and said, "But this time I will throw a change ball, or it may be a straight ball, yes A real baseball game...you better give it your all."

"……I see."

Li Yan took the baseball, thought for a while, and then nodded.

"My conditions have changed... If I win this game, I want you to buy something for me. Don't worry, the value will be within 1,000 yen."

Standing on the snow, Ogasawara Rinko smiled. She started to put on her gloves and visually measured the distance of about 18.5 meters. As she walked, she said: "Let me state in advance that I still don't agree with your approach, but it does convince others. It’s a sign of arrogance. Arrogance is accompanied by prejudice... Let’s use this competition to come to a conclusion as to whose point of view is the prejudice... I haven’t encountered such an interesting thing in a long time.”

"..."

The cold wind blew, and Li Yan was silent for a while. He began to feel that his bloated clothes were affecting his movements.

The Ogasawara Riko in front of her is not joking. If she can't win, she really won't help at all...

Standing in the cold wind, Li Yan realized that this was a critical moment and any interfering factors should be eliminated. He took off his white coat and put on just a shirt and a cheap vest that was not very warm. In order to relax his muscles, without saying a word, he pulled off his tie and threw it on the rock.

"Then let me learn about Ogasawara-san's transformation ball."

Li Yan was wearing a thin shirt, holding a baseball, standing on the cold snow by the river, looking at Ogasawara Riko and said.

"...I understand." Ogasawara Riko watched silently.

Now she also understands that Li Yan has not changed his position.

After Ogasawara Riko reached the distance of 18.5, she turned around, looked at Li Yan, and rubbed the baseball in her hand again and again, trying to match it with her palm.

"Change ball... even for hitters with high vision, it will have a good effect. Machines can only throw straight balls, but humans are creatures that know how to use detours."

Ogasawara Renko analyzed.

Simply speaking, this game seems to involve the issue of conflict of values, but Ogasawara Riko has always focused more on baseball.

She does not want to lose. This is her belief that she has always been reborn, especially in areas where she is confident, and she will definitely maintain a perfect advantage. After joining an animation company and becoming an original animator, her cowardly and easily compromised personality made her suffer a lot, and it is still her nightmare. Therefore, this gothic dress is her armor, and He does not shy away from the progress of his juniors, but he does not get too close to anyone in the company, perfectly protecting himself in the costumes he once designed for his characters.

However, vaguely, both Li Yan and Ogasawara Riko connected this ordinary baseball game with their past paths...

Li Yan's eyes sharpened, he held the bat and got ready.

The cold wind was blowing along the riverside. Ogasawara Rinko finally raised her hand high. Her gesture was not an upward throw, but a downward throw similar to softball. In an instant, the speed of the full throw could reach 130+ kilometers. The speed of the change ball, and more importantly, this change ball is also known as the "spray ball". It is a pitching method that is more difficult to master and harder to hit among the change ball types.

The direction of the ball's speed was constantly analyzed in Li Yan's eyes.

The trajectory of deception was constantly corrected and updated among the several guessed trajectories in Li Yan's mind. He had never dealt with such a weird ball path, but the only thing that could help was the results of his continuous study of dynamics in the university.

This is one of the physics theories that Professor Ogura especially hopes they can learn to the extreme.

He saw it correctly, and suddenly his eyes changed suddenly, and he swung the bat towards the baseball that was blown by the wind and derailed in front of him.

--【pound! ! ! 】

--【pound! ! ! 】

--【pound! ! ! 】……

For a moment, time froze, and the sound of being hit continued to echo in the pitcher's ears.

It was like the blow just now hit her heart directly!

Ogasawara Riko's eyes were completely confused. In an instant, a ball flew directly 3 meters above her head at an extremely fast speed. The sudden sound made her break into a cold sweat...

"……how come?"

Ogasawara Rinko watched blankly as Li Yan waved the stick, splashing snow mist on the ground.

The baseball flew directly behind him and fell directly to the ice.

Judging by the distance, you can almost hit a home run...

"...You are truly worthy of being Miss Ogasawara."

Li Yan also seemed to have some lingering fears. He didn't hit the lower end of the ball, but only hit the middle. He was almost deceived, but luckily he still hit... It should be said that Musashida Animation is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, let alone Miyamori Aoi. His driving skills are hard to find, and even the painting supervisor is a pitcher who can throw change balls...

It is really difficult to help the teacher take care of Ema Yasuhara.

"...Perhaps you may have misunderstood. I have never thought of myself as someone's savior. I don't have such inexplicable heroic ideas."

Li Yan placed the baseball in the snow, looked at Ogasawara Riko and said.

Even when he rescued Kasumigaoka Shiu from Hell, fought against a financial company to get justice for his students, and brought his friends out of the Okinawa forest... he never acted alone. Natsume and the cat teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka and the Yukinoshita sisters, It was only through the joint efforts of everyone at Sanhe Library that miracles were created... These experiences were enough for him to understand that the meaning of his life was not just to protect himself...

Li Yan said to Ogasawara Renko: "Professor Ogura has always protected his students, including me, and worked tirelessly for the students' future achievements. Although we call him the devil professor, we have always understood this truth. Suddenly one day, I saw my powerful teacher suddenly aging and suddenly powerless. At that time, the impact and shaken me was quite big. Only then did I understand that the teacher I admired would be confused like me, so at that moment I I also started to feel that... I also need to do something for the teacher..."

That night, Professor Ogura Kenichi had a rather complicated reaction to Li Yan's words. Although he worried about his daughter's current situation and future every day after returning to China, he never considered letting his students intervene at this level and wanted to refute. Li Yan realized that he, a failed father, was not qualified to refute all this. As a result, he said nothing, waved his hand to Li Yan without saying a word, got into a taxi and left in the vast white snow...

It was his own choice, and no one helped him decide from beginning to end.

Everything is in the dark, you have to make your own decision...
