With Ness winning indefinitely, the rankings of both the East and West games have finally settled.

The same as last year: the championship will still be produced in the two teams of Ness and Sparkling.

Since witnessing the strength of the two teams together, everyone in the protagonist team has begun to implement Mad Johnson's improved training plan without complaints: avoid advantages and specialize in disadvantages.

Therefore, in the next two weeks, the fishing after the morning run was temporarily cancelled. After this loss, I realized that sitting by the beach fishing was such a wonderful thing! Now, the intensive training courses day and night have caused the team members to be hollowed out...

Nandong, which has completely different skills and styles, is arranged to engage in a one-on-one confrontation. The latter can consume the former's endurance and stability for a long time, so that both parties' physical fitness, thinking, willpower and practical experience can be better trained.

After Johnson's true pass training, they are often hit by Johnson's sudden anger. This can't help but make people feel an illusion: the crazy coach just wants to hit someone, not really passing the ball.

Duan Fengchen has hardly practiced shooting much in the past two weeks. Apart from morning jogging, he has obviously more time in the gym.

What is painful is that the head coaches with serious flagrantism still seem to be disgusted with their physical fitness and will personally supervise their fitness classes every day; they will also use fist gloves from time to time to test their physical ability to resist strikes.

In this way, everyone in the protagonist team struggled in the dire straits for twenty days. It was not until the game approached that the intensity of the training was a little relaxed.

Next, the players must enter the final preparation stage with full confidence as soon as possible.

The evening of September 13th

When everyone finished their respective special training, they found that coach Johnson was gone. Not only that, even Li Kai and Ai Yi were in unknown whereabouts.

Try to call their cell phones, no one answered.

Before this, Johnson seemed to be doing individual targeted training for Li Kai. Now that these three people have disappeared at the same time, it is hard not to worry about it.

It was about to be dinner time, and Nan Yunyun was also sent back safely by the primary school bus. The three of them still had no news.

Could it be that something unexpected happened?

Zong Zheng's intuition gave a positive answer, but he hid his worries until Johnson came back alone and told everyone as if nothing had happened: Li Kai was sent to the hospital after eating a bad stomach.

After hearing this, Nandong sneered: "He is imitating big cities, so who?"

"Fortunately we are playing next week, not tomorrow." Yili said, "But why hasn't Ai Yi come back yet? It's not... something serious food poisoning is it?"

"No, right? I hope it won't affect the game!" Qi Yu's strength was worried.

"He won't be in trouble." Duan Fengchen said in a deep belief.

Johnson understood what they meant but didn't want to explain too much. He looked at his watch and said, "I'll give you another four minutes, and you'll get on the court on time at 6 o'clock!" After that, he turned around and left.

A friend silently followed his back, and the two walked into the coaching room one after another.

The coach room after the lights were on was bright as daylight, and Bruce Lee quietly climbed on the beach by the sea to bask in the sun.

Zong Zheng closed the door with one hand and turned to Johnson with a serious expression: "Are you all just saying true?"

Johnson only glanced at him without answering; this made his worry even deeper, and his brows tightened.

"Where are the others?" he asked again.

Johnson held for a moment and sighed helplessly: "Central Hospital. You can go and see it yourself."

Hearing this, he ran out without a second delay.

When Zong Zheng rushed to the emergency room of Grand Central Hospital, he happened to meet Dr. Ai who was about to leave in the corridor on that floor. The latter was not surprised by his appearance.

Zong Zheng took a few breaths and asked, "Where are others?"

"I'm already asleep." Ai Yi replied, the faint smile on his face made people relieved.

The two walked into the ward where Li Kai was. They saw the man lying quietly on the bed, his face looked peaceful when he was asleep, but his face was still a little pale and powerless.

Seeing that he was safe, Zong Zheng finally felt a little relieved.

He thought it must be because of the recent training that made him over-tired, and he hoped that he could take this opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to take a good rest for two days.

Zong Zheng walked out of the ward with Dr. Ai, and the two decided to see him again tomorrow morning.

On the way back to Sidney Arena, Zong Zheng heard Dr. Ai explain the specific process of Li Kai's admission; the more he listened, the more he became, the more strange he became, and even a little confused.

"Wait. What did you say just now? What was the surgery?"

"It's just surgery."

"I know. But, are you talking about Li Kai? Why does he need surgery? He is not..."

Zong Zheng seemed to have realized that it was Johnson who deceived everyone.

"I thought... you knew everything, so I ran over so anxiously." Ai Yi said a little embarrassedly.

Zong Zheng took a deep breath, as if he was calming down his emotions or preparing for the next answer.

"What's wrong with him?"

Ai Yi hesitated for a while and began to explain to him in a slight way:

"Li Kai suffered from acute appendicitis. After the diagnosis, the hospital arranged the operation directly. The operation was very successful and there would be no problem."

"As for lying to you, it's actually his own idea. Before he woke up anesthetics, he told us that the game was about to go, so there was no need to let the teammates think too much about unnecessary things..."

Zong Zheng said with a serious expression: "So he still wants to go to the competition?"

"Well... I don't think so. Because he has a low body fat, the doctor did not consider minimally invasive surgery. If the wound is not unexpected, it will heal roughly in one week, and there will be no problems in daily life. But if you want to play games, I think it will take at least one month." Ai Yi said.

Zong Zheng listened to Ai Yi's words without saying a word, and his heart was insincerely confused.

Although he couldn't tell him to give up the game, as a friend, Zong Zheng still visited Li Kai every day; the latter always showed a relaxed and unobstructed look, except for eating less and sleeping more.

Early in the morning of the third day, he even left the hospital by himself.

During this period, he never mentioned the game from beginning to end, and returned to the team as if nothing had happened.

After returning to the team, Li Kai didn't mind his teammates' complaints and jokes about him eating randomly, and accepted them with a smile. In order to prove his health, he even ran on the court and threw the ball, not taking his friends who kept his secrets seriously at all.

"Captain, you seem to be slow in your movements. Could it be that there are any sequelae, right?" Qi Yu said half-jokingly.

"Well. His movements are not only slow but also very stiff." Duan Fengchen said affirmatively.

"It doesn't exist." Li Kai grabbed the basketball with one hand and wanted to show off. Their faces were louder. Fortunately, Zong Zheng was grabbed in time.

"You, come with me." Zong Zheng whispered, forcibly dragging the person into the locker room, and then shut the door to death.

"Haha, I'm really embarrassed to be so proactive to me..."

"If you make a joke with me, I will beat you back to the hospital."

Li Kai twitched and smiled. Zong Zheng's serious look with a stern face seemed to be beaten up in the next second (not whether he can really get someone into the hospital with his military power).

"I'm fine, don't worry." Li Kai looked at him sincerely and said, "I promise I won't do anything randomly. I just don't want to be too embarrassing."

Zong Zheng felt soft for a second, and his tone and expression suddenly softened: "Have you...stitched off your wound?"

"It's glued, you don't need to remove the thread. Haha, let's show you a look, so you can save you from worrying." Li Kai found a place to sit down, then unbuttoned his belt.

Zong Zheng went up and checked it carefully. He saw a three or four centimeter-long crimson knife edge on his lower right abdomen, with a layer of white transparent glue on the surface, covering the wound and the slightly red skin around him.

Perhaps this is indeed healing very well for a person on the third day after surgery.

At this moment, the teammates of the protagonist team opened the door and walked in. They happened to see this indescribable scene between them: one lifted up his shirt and sat on the changing bench, and his panties were all three inches below his navel; the other knelt beside his legs, with his hands on the edge of his panties...

Other friends may not find anything strange when they see this scene, but Ilias doesn't think it's good.

Before, he and Dr. Ai accidentally ran into two people hugging each other in the infirmary. So much so that when he saw this scene, he looked indescribable. Dr. Ai had already firmly believed that the two were a pair, and he didn't want to believe it...

...

In the next few days, Li Kai lived a stable life under the supervision of three insiders. It was not easy. He did not let his fragile blade crack open again. But this leisure rest and the approaching game made him feel very uneasy. As the captain, he could only arrange something for himself secretly.

On the morning of September 19, Nesland, Tilton District.

The Tyr Center, the most advanced basketball training base in Country A, is a dedicated training venue for defending champion Nice to stay away from the team. During the global rankings, the players spend most of their time here.

Enze lies in his eyes and relaxed his whole body on the bed. A health care physician is helping his limbs stretching exercises that are beneficial to his muscles and joints; each set is forty-five seconds, a total of twelve groups. This is to reduce muscle joint strain caused by training or competition, and to have a good maintenance and relaxation effect. It is the most relaxing and enjoyable item for the main players in daily training events.

"Yeah, cough--"

Captain Hris's throat suddenly sounded during the radio in every corner of the field. He had just stepped out of his Koenigri to prepare to walk into the training ground, while continuing to speak through the wireless headset: "Good morning. I think everyone is here?"

Enze sat up from the bed and rolled his eyes vaguely, probably despising the super basketball giant who was the last to ask and answer on the radio.
