Chapter 271 – Episode 269. Asian Games. (2)
‘Foreign women definitely smell.’
‘Tsk, tsk, I can’t help it because I’m a monkey, so I can’t enjoy it.’
‘Hey, Natisha didn’t smell much. Is it because she uses a lot of perfume?’
What I felt while picking on women from many countries during the Asian Games was that the closer you go to West Asia, the worse the body odor of the women becomes. Natisha, who I had sex with for the first time, didn’t mind because she wore a lot of perfume, but Middle Eastern women smelled like lamb, so I’ve been busy targeting East Asian women for the past few days.
‘I have to do the basics. I don’t want anything difficult. All I need to do is apply some perfume or deodorant.’
Since you get used to smells during sex anyway, I was hoping for something as basic as smelling the scent the first time I smelled it, but Rossby didn’t understand my feelings.
‘Tsk, because you don’t know the deep taste, you’re a brat.’
‘I also like the smell of sweat. Hyuna and I do it often even if we don’t wash. However, foreign girls have a different base. The basic base. This is polite.’
In any case, perhaps because the time when Rossby lived was uncivilized, her thoughts were still uncivilized.
“Why is your expression so serious? Are you nervous?”
“Uh? “What is the tension?”
As I was having an in-depth discussion with Rossby about her body odor, Joo Seung-cheol approached me.
“Bro, I’m from the WBC. Are you going to be nervous here?”
“That’s because your expression is tense before the game. Besides, we didn’t train properly, right?”
“What about training? Even if you don’t, you can beat them.”
As Joo Seung-cheol said, there was only one day of training at the baseball stadium before the first game started. It was obvious that China was keeping us, the strong contenders for the championship, in check, but that didn’t make us particularly nervous.
“Well, it’s Thailand, we have to win.”
“You don’t just have to win, you have to win cold. Let’s finish quickly and rest.”
If I won coldly, I thought I would be able to find time to watch Hyuna’s game. Women’s volleyball has also started its group preliminaries.
“Come on, everyone gathers around.”
Just then, director Geum-Hyeon Lee called us.
“Our first opponent is Thailand. This doesn’t mean we should ignore them, but if we are at our best, we should score 15 points in the 5th inning and end the game cold. “You know, right?”
“Yes!”
“It’s only as good as Thailand.”
Other players also respond with a light heart. There was not a single player in the squad who thought they would lose to Thailand.
“Okay, let’s take the lead from the first episode and let’s go. Okay?”
“Go!”
In a bright atmosphere, Hancheol’s Kim Dong-jin, the lead hitter, headed to the plate in the top of the first inning.
And,
Ta – Aak!
Kim Dong-jin hit a double and reached base after three balls. Our number 2 hitter is Shilla Triggers’ shortstop, Kim Hwan-young. Kim Hwan-young, who he occasionally worked with in the WBC national team, was a shortstop who made the Keystone combination comfortable, and his hitting skills were also suitable for the national team.
Ta – Aak!
Kim Hwan-young’s batted ball fell to the left, and Kim Dong-jin rushed home at a high speed like the previous year’s stolen base king.
“Nice!”
“Dongjin! It was good!”
An easily earned first point. After seeing Joo Seung-cheol, the third batter, enter the batting box, I also headed to the waiting box.
‘Mr. Rossby, how about the ball?’
‘It’s not even high school level.’
‘Really?’
‘Tch, it would be more efficient to just look at women rather than teach these skills…’
Rossby grumbles quietly. If I didn’t have sex in the dorm, I would just go around looking at women.
“Ball!”
The ball thrown by the Thai starting pitcher, whose name I don’t even know how to read, misses wide and Joo Seung-cheol gets the ball.
‘There’s nothing special when you look at it up close, right? It’s really like high school.’
I thought it was an American high school because Rossby said it was a high school, but it seems it was a Korean high school.
Ta – Aak!
Joo Seung-cheol easily lifted the ball driven to the center, and his batted ball went over the fence like a clothesline. Two-run home run. 3 runs after 3 batters. It started well.
‘Then, shall I try my best?’
Stretch out using the bat and go to bat. It’s been a while since I smelled the real air. I didn’t feel the tension I felt during the season, but I was a little excited, perhaps because it was my first time at bat in a long time.
“… ! … ! …”
I ignored the Thai catcher who was talking incomprehensibly and looked at Rossby.
‘What about the ball?’
‘It’s a slider.’
‘Did you throw a slider? ‘I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before?’
‘What I just threw was a slider grip.’
‘Yes? ‘Is that a slider?’
There wasn’t much difference from a fastball, right? It didn’t look like it was bending, so I thought the speed of the fastball was around 120 km/h, but I guess it was a slider.
‘Shall we watch? Should I not? Err, I don’t know.’
After thinking about it, he decided that it would be useless to worry even against a Thai pitcher, so he would just hit him when he came into the zone. Thai pitcher does a windup. I focused on the pitcher’s hands, thinking about the timing of the guy I saw in the dugout and waiting at bat.
‘It’s coming!’
And then the guy’s ball flew towards me cheekily. I swung the bat without even thinking.
Ta-ah!
‘It’s light!’
This guy’s ball is so light. A ball that didn’t even feel like a bat flip went over the fence.
-Ji Maeng-ho! Cool!
Even though the crowd cheered that it was cool, the ball didn’t even feel like hitting.
“Hey, why do you look like that after hitting a home run?”
After the team members’ congratulations were over, I was sitting on the bench, and Kim Hwan-young, seeing my stiff expression, spoke to me.
“Because it’s so boring. “I thought I wouldn’t be able to adapt if I went back like this.”
The Thai player’s pitch was poor enough for me to worry about this.
“I hope so.”
“It has nothing to do with your senior, right? “It’s okay anyway.”
Now that the season is over, Silla’s ranking is 5th after being defeated by Hancheol in the last game. There was no history of 5th place getting through the wild card game and advancing to the semi-playoffs, so my condition and Kim Hwan-young had nothing to do with it.
“Fuck you, bastard.”
Kim Hwan-young also knew this, so he swore and turned his attention to the ground. The field that had been emptied after I hit a home run had already filled up to second base while I was talking with Kim Hwan-young. The 5th hitter Lee Yong-gi and the 6th hitter Choi Si-woo both hit and succeeded in getting on base.
“Be easy. Rest.”
And with a double that hit Charlotte’s third baseman Kim Jin-beom’s wall directly, even slow first base runner Si-woo Choi came home, increasing the score to five points.
“Why isn’t there a cold game in the first inning?”
“That’s right. “Isn’t there something like abstention?”
Even though Kim Hwan-young and I chatted and watched the game, it was a relaxed atmosphere with no one saying anything. After just one inning, the game virtually turned into a cold game.
“Okay, let’s get the score and get off work early today!”
“Yes!”
“Let’s finish it quickly!”
Lee Yong-gi, captain of the national team, comes into the dugout and motivates the players. Perhaps thanks to that motivation, the batters gained strength, and in the top of the first inning when two outs were counted, my at-bat came back.
The score is 7 points, and there are two runners. The pitcher standing on the mound has already changed a long time ago.
‘If I were an opponent, I would play catcher or something, but it feels like I’m playing with young kids, so I’m not motivated at all.’
‘Then you don’t have to have me?’
‘Yes. Just figure it out. Looking at the level, I think we can do without Mr. Rossby.’
At my answer, Rossby flew toward the cheering squad. When I took a quick look earlier, there were quite a few good girls there.
‘Ha, who will I have sex with today? Should I go see Natishana again? Is the horseback riding over?’
Enough freedom to think about having sex while standing at bat. I’m sorry to the Thai kids, but the level difference was that big. Since I didn’t look closely at the new pitcher’s pitch from the standby or dugout, I waited with the intention of watching his pitch.
“Strike!”
A lucky strike. Rather than being lucky, the referee’s strike zone expanded. The referee also seemed to want to end this game quickly.
‘But it’s not my turn at bat. Was the velocity around 130?’
The umpire was a little offended, but since it was a game with no competitive spirit, I composed myself and waited for the pitcher’s ball again. The pitching form is different from the one I just threw a fastball. It was obviously a breaking ball, so I prepared for the breaking ball and loaded the bat.
‘Curve?’
A curve coming into the zone that I haven’t seen in a long time. It was quite slow even for a curveball, so I waited for the right moment and swung the bat.
Ta – Aak!
A batted ball that disappears into the center wall. It was a light three-run.
‘Is these 10 points? There are 5 points left.’
I came into the dugout counting the scores. The score gap widened so much that the players did not welcome it warmly. And with all runners gone, Lee Yong-gi swung the bat three times and entered the dugout.
“Bro, why did you strike out?”
“Hey, are you going to play today’s game for the rest of your life? If this continues, the first episode won’t even end. I have to go quickly to the 5th to get off work. I trusted you guys and struck out, really. “You can score 5 runs in the remaining innings, right?”
Also a veteran. It seemed like he was thinking about how to finish the game as quickly as possible, counting the time off from work. Seeing as how neither coach Lee Geum-hyun nor the coaches reprimanded Lee Yong-gi for his actions, it appears that it was a play that the coaches also condoned.
‘I heard Yonggi is definitely smart. The same goes for the ball combination. BQ is good.’
With Lee Yong-gi’s sacrifice, the top of the first inning ended, and Thailand’s long-awaited attack ended in a three-way strike without any reward. And then the second episode started. By the time I got to bat, the score had increased by 15 points, and when I came back to bat, I hit a home run, completely demolishing the Thai kids’ motivation.
“The other kids, please warm up slowly.”
Having achieved the requirement of a cold game in two innings, we were replaced by players resting in the dugout, and at the end of the fifth inning, the score difference was 21 points.
‘I knew it would be like this, but it’s too easy. Tsk. ‘I have to go watch Hyuna play.’
As expected, the first game of the Asian Games was so easy that I felt exhausted.

-“Ji Maeng-ho doesn’t look happy. Can I hear the reason?”
-“Well, you’re not happy just because you won a fight with a little kid, right? “I am like that too.”
“Hyung, what are you looking at?”
“Wow, this guy is so cocky.”
“Uh, is this them?”
“Who is it?”
“Ji Maeng-ho. You’re so famous in Korea right now, don’t you know? Oh, you went to the Middle East this season, right?”
“I’m not interested in baseball.”
“But why are you watching?”
“I was just watching it on the news. But is it that famous?”
“Yeah, it’s a mess in Korea. He’s handsome and has good skills.”
“Ha, anyway, he’s a leisure player. Fuck, some people fight to the death and barely get a gold medal, but kids who play baseball win gold medals comfortably by beating up low-level kids. Doesn’t this guy have any controversies?”
“Controversy? A lot. And I heard from a friend who plays another sport, these bastards are fucking with foreign athletes. “I heard you saw me coming out of another dorm?”
“A girl who represents her country comes to the Asian Games and only has sex with her. The world is coming to an end. “Forever.”
On the evening that the Korean baseball team defeated the Thai baseball team, Ji Maeng-ho gave an interview as usual, and the interview stimulated someone’s sense of inferiority. However, it was a little later in the story that that inferiority complex was revealed to the world.
