The author has something to say: the important thing is said three times, "Cosmic Brothers" is actually a sci-fi story, a sci-fi story, a sci-fi story! ! !

The story takes place in the future, so seeing what didn't happen happens in the story - it's science fiction! ! !

"So that's the story of some of the other boys in baseball that I've come to know."

"The newly established baseball club in a public school, for the first time, has to share the field with other clubs, and when the number of people is just enough, they dare to set the dream of being the champion of Koshien, not as a fantasy, but as a reality Take this as the goal and make corresponding efforts.”

"If you compare it to adults, they should be very talented people, right? But they will also bravely speak out their dreams like idiots' dreams and work hard for them."

"And their pitchers, who were denied again and again, even when they were not sure of themselves, they never gave up on the mound..."

"Their stories made me really take the first step. I told my family about my dream, submitted my resume, and started to work hard for the selection later—fortunately, although I am a coward, my love for my dream is great. It’s genuine, and it’s probably a bit of luck…”

"If it weren't for my ex-boyfriend and the teenagers I met later, I probably would never have known that I could really make it this far, and that I was only one step away from my dream."

Having said that, Tsukishima changed the topic.

"But I'm really lucky. More people can't even pass the resume. After all, only two people came here out of thousands of people."

"But the reality is very real."

"Just because you are more passionate, more persistent, and more urgent than others, will not make you the final winner."

Love is an abstract concept, but at the same time it is real, the hard work you put in, the experience you have accumulated... She can't say that people who fail are not as "loved" as she is.

"The cruel thing is that you have worked hard and tried your best, but you may not be able to compare with other people's talents or specialties."

"So it's a gamble."

She was silent for a while and then turned her words back to the court.

"At the end of an official game, there are often crying third graders. For them, the game they lost is probably the last official game in their lives, because most of them, walking down When you are on the court, you have to start reviewing and preparing for the exam, and start to face the reality of life."

"Most of them set a time for themselves -- high school. High school ends their dream and they wake up and they face reality."

"But there is such a person, who graduated from high school and college, and still hasn't woken up from his dream. He has devoted his entire life to a big gamble without hesitation."

(Japan's population is 1.3 million)

"His university major is still paving the way for his dream. He is persistent and stubborn, and wants to realize a dream that can be called slim and difficult to realize. Even if there is an unknown future ahead, even if every step forward, It's still pitch black...his actions were desperate."

(Among so many Japanese, 12 have become astronauts.)

"What he wants to do, no one has done it before. Countless outstanding seniors of his ambitions fell on that road and returned home with feathers."

"This stubborn, persistent, wannabe astronaut, wannabe moon guy."

(Among these Japanese astronauts, the first and only one to walk on the moon...)

"It's you."

"Daily people, I have gained the courage to work hard for my dreams from many people, but without you, without you seniors, I would not dare to walk on the road that no one has traveled. Courage, the road you pioneered, is me, and it is the confidence for many of us to finally dare to take the first step."

"I want to say thank you solemnly."

……

Everyday people have complicated faces.

Tsukishima had already left by this time, and he was sitting alone in the dining room.

Saying thank you, is actually trying to encourage me?

In fact, when he heard this story for the first time, he already had a vague premonition.

Was it that his performance was already so worrying?Although things are different from what Tsukishima thought... But, thank you, Tsukishima, you have conveyed the power you received to me well, thank you.

I understand, I'm not afraid of losing...but I still want to win the most!
